Puerto Rican Powerhouse Rita Moreno is the hardest-working woman in show business

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

B

ack in 1990, Rita Moreno went to see famed television producer Norman Lear to discuss her possibly playing the part of then 67-year-old character actor Charles Durning’s wife in a pilot Lear was producing. According to her 2013 autobiography, Rita Moreno: A Memoir, his response was, “Durning’s wife? Are you kidding? You look like a kid!” She insisted she was 60, and he responded by saying with a twinkle, “Getoutta here!” According to her bio, Moreno went to her car and cried—“I looked too good for my age....” Fast forward to 2019, and the Hispanic icon is getting ready to start the third season of the Netflix reboot of One Day At a Time, created and still produced by none other than Lear. It’s a development that the ageless actress couldn’t be more delighted by. “Some things come very hard and some things come very easy. Norman Lear said that he wanted me in his new show, and I said okay. About 10 minutes later, I asked him what it was about. But it’s

Norman Lear. He told me that I was the very first person that he thought of for the show. He’s a marvel who is at work every day, by the way. He’s an old fart. I tell him that I’m the old fartette,” she said. “I’m working with one of the great producer/writers

of television—Norman Lear. We’ve become very close. I just really adore that man. There’s so much to love about him.” While Moreno never saw the original series and has no plans to, she’s delighted by the quality of the material and the actors whom she’s getting to work with. “It’s a terrific cast. Justina [Machado] is just brilliant. I adore and respect her. I think she’s just a terrific actress and really underappreciated. I’m just thrilled to be working with her, and the kids are growing and just getting better and better. And my good friend Todd [Grinnell], who plays Schneider, is someone whom I adore with all my heart. We’re all very close, and I’m sure that people always say this, but it’s like a family,” she said. “What is extraordinary about our show is that Norman really addresses some very serious stuff and that’s him through and through. The writers have found

a balance between the funny and the serious, which is not an easy balance to come to.” In a career that’s found the Puerto Rican native compiling quite a résumé in film, television and on the stage, her dance card has been filling up rather quickly. In addition to working on a documentary of her life for PBS that’s being produced by Lear and his business partner Brent Miller, the octogenarian recently found herself on the phone with Steven Spielberg, who wanted to offer her a part in his upcoming remake of West Side Story—the same film that was Moreno’s breakthrough role and landed her a 1961 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. She’s still in disbelief in sharing this particular anecdote. “When I sat on the phone and talked with him…the him….Steven, I could not believe what he said,” she shared. “He told me they were going to do this movie and I said I’d heard about it. Then he said, ‘Tony Kushner and I would just love to have you play Doc, only it’s not Doc, it would be Valentina. She owns the candy store.’ I damn near wet my knickers. I was just beside myself. Talk about full circle.” It’s a long road traveled for the woman born Rosa Dolores Alverio in Humacao to a 17-year-old seamstress, Rosa Maria Marcano, and a farmer, Francisco José Alverio. Having come over with her mom when she was only five, she grew up in the Bronx and Washington Heights, taking dance lessons with Rita Hayworth’s paternal uncle Paco Cansino and making her Broadway debut at age 12 in a production called Skydrift. During her teen years, Moreno’s mother and stepfather moved out to Valley Stream before Hollywood beckoned. It was a time she remembers fondly. “I loved [living in Valley Stream], because it seemed to connect me with the white world. And actually, the house we lived on was a tract house. I didn’t see it that way, and I didn’t even know what that word meant. We were the last house on the street, and we literally lived next to a beet field. Heaven knows, I’m sure it’s different now. All I could think of was, why does it have to be beets? Why couldn’t it be something I like?,”

POWERHOUSE from page 3A she recalled with a laugh. Moreno landed parts in 1950’s The Toast of New Orleans and 1952’s Singin’ in the Rain. Being a Latina, she was cast to play many “exotic” characters, and aside from a supporting role as Tuptim in 1956’s The King & I, she disliked many of the parts she wound up playing throughout most of the 1950s. “There was nothing when I came out to Hollywood. I did go there

under contract to MGM, and it was a hard time. I already didn’t feel so good about myself anyway because of my experiences in New York,” she said. “Whenever I wasn’t working, I’d be so sad and panicked. And then when I was working, I’d be thrilled for one day and then I’d look at the script. It would be an American Indian girl or some Lolita/ Conchita part and then I would get sad again. It was just really difficult. All of that sent me into therapy years later. That’s the best thing I

YOU R QU I NTES SEN T IAL HO M E S P E CIALIST

ever did for myself.” While West Side Story proved to be a breakthrough for Moreno, the quest for non-stereotypical work was continual, even as she married cardiologist Leonard Gordon in 1965 (who passed away in 2010) and became a mom to her only child Fernanda. Along the way, she became a KEGOT—someone who’s been awarded a Kennedy Center Award, an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony—while appearing in shows as wide-ranging as The

Electric Company and the uber-violent HBO prison drama Oz. With so many projects that she’s involved with, the proud grandmother is grateful to have such a full creative schedule. “I was 87 in December, and I’m a working actress. I have no complaints. I get a hangnail, I’m not complaining because life is way too good.” The third season of the reboot of One Day At a Time debuts on Netflix on Feb. 8.

ith seven-plus decades of experience under her belt, the ageless Rita Moreno has made her mark on the silver screen, television and the stage. She shares some of her favorite roles from each medium here.

God, the casting in that show was extraordinary. And every year they’d bring in some new actor to play a new prisoner and it would be somebody incredible. Not a star, but an incredible actor. It was fantastic.”

West Side Story (1961) “That became an iconic role for me. It’s a role that made me known worldwide, more than anything.

The Miracle Worker (1969) “I did a lot of theater outside of Broadway. I think one of the things I really loved doing was playing Anne Sullivan in The Miracle Worker. I played an Irish girl in that and it was just wonderful and one of the best experiences I ever had.” —Dave Gil de Rubio

And The Oscar Goes To... BY CHERYL WADSWORTH

Roma

re you ready for the biggest night where movies, actors, directors, screen writers, composers, etc. all get together in their best attire in attempts to win the coveted golden statue? Well the wait is almost over as Feb. 24 sees the return of the 91st Academy Awards, airing at 8 p.m. EST on ABC. It wouldn’t be an Oscar’s celebration without controversy and this year’s debate focuses on the host, or lack of one. With Kevin Hart stepping down amid arguments over his past remarks and views, the vacancy has yet to be filled. If left as is, this will mark the first ceremony in 30 years to be conducted without a host. The nominations for Best Pictures this year have a wide diversity, unlike prior years. They are as follows: Black Panther, BlacKkKlansman (Spike Lee’s first nomination for director), Bohemian Rhapsody, The

Favourite, Green Book, Roma, A Star is Born and Vice. Many of these films also have many other nominations, like Vice having nods for Director (Adam McKay), Actor (Christian Bale), Supporting Actress (Amy Adams) and Supporting Actor (Sam Rockwell). Also of importance are a few films that have best Actor/Actress Nominations where their film hasn’t been given the recognition. They are:

Can You Ever Forgive Me? is directed by Marielle Heller and stars Melissa McCarthy, who has been selected in the Best Actress category for this performance where she portrays Lee Israel, a writer, who has fallen on hard times and resorts to forging letters from deceased authors and playwrights and turning around to sell them for big profits. The movie is based on Lee’s memoir of the same name from 2008. McCarthy,

known for her comedic performances, proves her versatility in this role, making her a contender. At Eternity’s Gate is directed by Julian Schnabel and stars Willem Dafoe, who is up for a Best Actor award. This biographical drama gives us a look into the final years of famous painter Vincent van Gogh while living in France. As always, Dafoe delivers an outstanding performance. Roma is up for many awards including Best Director (Alfonso Cuarón, who also wrote the script), Best Actress (Yalitza Aparicio), and Best Supporting Actress (Marina de Tavira). This foreign film ties with The Favourite with the most nominations as well as 2000’s The Crouching Tiger: Hidden Dragon for the most noms for a film not in the English language. Roma has already won awards for Best Director and Best Foreign Language Film. The movie is based loosely on Cuarón’s own experiences growing up in Colonia Roma in the district of Mexico City. The film follows the year in the life of a maid working for a middle class family in the early 1970s. Her story is complicated

The Kylie Kraze BY ALLISON EICHLER aeicHler@antonmediagroup.com

n 2015, Kylie Jenner, the youngest member of the Kardashian-Jenner bunch, took the world by storm with the launch of her Kylie Lip Kits. Four years later, Kylie Cosmetics has turned the 21-year-old makeup maven into a self-made billionaire with an empire of lip, eye and face products. On Jan. 18, fans were glued to their screens when at exactly 3 p.m. PST, Jenner launched a collection of 18 blush, bronzer and kylighter shades, along with six new lipstick and lip liner shades. The face products are enclosed in a light pink compact complete with a generously sized mirror and feature all new silky-smooth formulas. The lipsticks and lip liners come in sleek black bullet lipstick casings and pencils, respectively. These products are a permanent addition to the cosmetics line and are available exclusively through www.kyliecosmetics.com.

Blush

Lipstick

The six new blushes, Pink Power (pale pink), Kitten Baby (light apricot), Baddie on the Block (mid-tone pink), Close to Perfect (dusty peach), We’re Going Shopping (coral) and Rosy (mid-tone berry), feature a shade range guaranteed to complement every skin tone. Dip a brush into the buttery-smooth formula and sweep across the cheekbones to reveal buildable, gorgeous matte color that blends seamlessly on skin— use a light hand, though, these blushes are very pigmented. $18 each.

Kylie Cosmetics has the matte lipstick game on lock with their delicious cake-scented formula. A smooth and creamy application provides fullcoverage color without the typical drying effects of a matte lipstick and without settling into fine lines in and around the mouth. While color will transfer and leave your coffee cup with kisses, enough color stays on the lips that you’d never believe it transferred to begin with. The three new shades Yes Baby (warm taupe), Lovey Dovey (peachy nude) and Almost Friday (pale, bricky pink) can be worn alone or paired with a gloss for a high-shine finish. $17.

RECIPE

Celebrate National Pizza Day Celebrity chefs share their favorite pies BY JENNIFER FAUCI jfauci@antonmediagroup.com

National Pizza Day is Feb. 9 and if you haven’t had a slice of the pie yet, whip up your own. Food Network chefs Donatella Arpaia and Anne Burrell share recipes for their go-to pizzas. Arpaia serves up Prova Pizzabar’s Margherita Pizza and Homemade Pizza Dough while Burrell dishes on her Grilled Pizzetta with Stracchino, Sausage, Arugula and Chili Oil.

Donatella Arpaia’s Pizza Dough

2¾ teaspoons fresh yeast or active dry yeast 4⅛ cups fresh water 2¾ tablespoons sea salt 12⅓ cups type “00” flour Olive oil 1. Sprinkle the yeast over the water and let stand until the yeast is creamy, about 1 minute. Stir until the yeast dissolves. In a large bowl add the sea salt, then the yeast mixture and the flour; stir until a soft dough forms. 2. Transfer the dough ball to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Lightly coat another large bowl with olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning it to oil the top. Cover with plastic wrap and store

someplace warm; let rise for six hours. 3. Shape the dough into 20-ounce ball. Place the ball on a nonstick surface or parchment paper, and then cover with plastic wrap, allowing room for the dough to expand. Let the dough rise until doubled, 8-12 hours. 4. Rest the dough in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours. Your homemade dough is now ready to be baked. Remove dough and allow it to come to temperature for 45 minutes. 5. Preheat oven to as high as it can go for 15 minutes. Take sheet pan tray and spread thin layer of oil all over. Stretch dough on table, then transfer into tray and press the dough further into shape of pan. Then drizzle dough with about 2 tablespoons olive oil.

Donatella Arpaia’s Margherita Pizza

1 lb. pizza dough or homemade pizza dough 3-4 tbs olive oil 8 oz. fresh mozzarella 2 ripe beefsteak tomatoes 5-6 basil leaves 1. Preheat oven on low for 30 minutes. 2. Divide the dough ball in half. Working one ball of dough at a time, take one ball of dough and flatten it with your hands on a slightly floured work surface. Starting at the center

Watch Repair

and working outwards, use your fingertips to press the dough to ½-inch thick. Let the dough relax 5 minutes and then continue to stretch until it reaches 12 inches. 3. Spread 2 tbs. olive oil over dough. 4. Slice the tomatoes and arrange over pizza dough. Then slice the mozzarella and sprinkle over the tomatoes. Tear basil leaves and place over the mozzarella. 5. Transfer pizza to a cooling rack in the oven. Bake for 5 minutes, rotating once 90 degrees halfway through cooking.

Grilled Pizzetta with Stracchino, Sausage, Arugula & Chili Oil

Serves 6 “I love the charred flavor of grilled pizza. You can top it with anything, of course, but this version is one of my favorites,” said Burrell. “It’s crispy and crunchy, kind of like a grilled cracker. Whenever I eat pizza I always give it a sprinkey-dink of crushed red pepper— it’s just better with a little kick.”

Chili Oil

5 to 6 Fresno chili peppers, roughly chopped 1½ cups extra virgin olive oil 1. Bring the chilies and oil to a simmer in a small saucepan; remove from the heat and let the peppers steep in the oil for at least an hour or until the dough has risen and you’re ready to make the pizzas. This can be done in advance.

Dough

15 Main Street, Port Washington SandsPointShop.com • 516.767.2970 Open Monday - Saturday, 9:30 to 5. Thursdays until 6

195896 C

1½ tsp active dry yeast ½ tsp sugar 1½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more as needed ½ tsp kosher salt 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus more for the bowl and grill 1. While the oil steeps combine the yeast, sugar, and ½ cup warm water in a small bowl. Stir to combine and let sit for 10 to 15 minutes until

foamy and yeasty-smelling. 2. Combine the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl; make a well in the center of the flour and add the olive oil and the yeast mixture. Using a fork, stir until the flour and liquids are well combined. Knead dough until smooth and elastic, 6 to 7 minutes. Lightly coat the mixing bowl with olive oil, return the dough to the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise for one hour. 3. When the dough is ready, portion it into six golf-ball-size pieces. Dust a work surface with flour and roll each piece of dough into a rectangle.

Pizza Topping

Extra virgin olive oil ½ lb. sweet Italian sausage, casings removed 1 lb. stracchino or other mild, creamy cheese, such as ricotta, Taleggio, or Fontina, at room temperature 1 bunch of arugula, trimmed 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. and preheat the grill. 2. Coat a large sauté pan with oil, add the sausage, and bring to medium heat. Cook the sausage until brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve. 3. Brush the grill with oil and arrange each piece of dough on the grill; you might need to work in batches here. Grill until the dough is stiff and crisp then flip and repeat on the second side. 4. Put the pizzas on baking sheets, schmear each with some stracchino, top with sausage and bake until the cheese has melted, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pizzas from the oven, top with arugula, and drizzle with the spicy chili oil.

THEATER

Catch Spring Awakening At The Argyle BY KIMBERLY DIJKSTRA

T

kdijkstra@antonmediagroup.com

hrough the end of February, the historic Argyle Theatre in Babylon is putting on the first professional Long Island production of Spring Awakening, the Tony Award-winning rock musical about the complicated journey from adolescence to adulthood during a time when adolescents weren’t free to ask questions about their bodies or sexuality. Set in late-19th-century Germany, the familiar themes of teenage angst resonate strongly with today’s youth. “It’s a raw, rock musical. It’s very provocative,” said Emily Nash, who plays Ilse, a victim of abuse at the hands of her father. “The music is ultra contemporary. However the book, the actual lines we’re saying on the page, sound like they’re from another time,” Nash continued. “It’s this really cool dichotomy between what we’re speaking and singing.” The musical by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater uses rock and folk music to tell the story originally told by the controversial German expressionist play by Frank Wedekind. Singer-songwriter Sheik is best known for the 1996 hit song “Barely Breathing.” Alex Grayson, who plays Melchior, describes his character as having a free mind. “He wants to pursue all these things that his soul is yearning for. He’s a rebellious character in this oppressive society.”

“The play was written in the late 1800s...and all of these story lines are still true in 2019, which is very frightening,” said David Thomas Cronin, who portrays Moritz. “It is definitely an emotional overload, but I think it’s a conversation starter.” “The most important moment for me in the show is...[when] my character sings the song ‘Don’t Do Sadness,’” Cronin said. “Up until that point, everyone in the show has someone to relate to...and Moritz does not, so it’s about him being alone.” Corrie Farbstein plays Wendla, a role originated by Lea Michele on Broadway. “She’s taking in a lot of information and her curiosity grows with each moment that people are not giving her answers,” Farbstein said about her character. “Seeing the stories on stage,

the vignettes of what different characters are going through, is an empowering thing for a person to see if they have felt like they’re the only one.” Tyler Belo, who has been cast as Otto, feels lucky to be part of the first professional production of Spring Awakening on Long Island. “It’s really important for people to come see this show,” he said. “It’s a musical you have to be fully engaged with to fully receive the message. It’s deep.” Spring Awakening debuted on Broadway in 2006. The wildly successful show continued for two years and enjoyed a brief revival in 2015 featuring deaf actors from Deaf West Theatre and interpretation for deaf-blind theatre-goers. The 2018 NBC series about a high-school theatre program Rise heavily featured songs and scenes from Spring Awakening in the plot, which was loosely based on a true story. The Argyle Theatre in Babylon was recently renovated to restore its former glory. The theatre seats 500 and employs members of Actors’ Equity, the same union to which Broadway stars belong. Director Matthew Earnest, choreographer Sara Brians and musical director Jonathan Brenner head up The Argyle’s production.

hy do people choose to support certain causes, while others look away? Sometimes it’s personal. A family member dies in hospice where their dignity was preserved in their final days. Other times it’s not as close to home. A television spot features a child with a cleft palette, a shivering dog or a malnourished baby. Certain causes seem easier to sell. For example, the school you attended or a research center that is making advances in treating cancer. Other causes may be tarnished by misunderstanding. For example, I’ve worked in the mental health and addiction fields since the early 1970s. It is in this arena that some believe that one’s ailments “above the neck” are self-inflicted, failures of character or poor parenting, or lack of will power. Consequently, they deem them unworthy of philanthropy. Nevertheless, I must recognize the compassion and generosity of those who do understand and support the work we do at North Shore Child and Family Guidance Center and many of our sister agencies. It is important to acknowledge that these givers are

more than do-gooders, despite the good that they do. They are smart and empathetic. They know that what we do is cost-effective, saving tens of millions of dollars by keeping troubled kids at home and out of costly institutional settings. They look into the eyes of their own children or grandchildren and feel a deep connection to all children. Family members and friends have asked me what led to my choosing a career in human services, intimating that it’s not a financially lucrative path. My greatest influence was observing the profound impact of the kindness of others during my childhood and youth. The father of my closest childhood friend died in the 1950s when we were

little kids. We lost touch as we grew older. When his mom died, I sent him a sympathy card. Some weeks later my friend wrote back to me. His words brought a lump to my throat. “Dear Andy: What a surprise to hear from you! My mom’s death has caused me to spend hours thinking about my childhood. Some of my most fond recollections involve you and your family. Your father was the dad I didn’t have…” Throughout my childhood, my parents, as well as other adults in my family, performed acts of profound kindness and generosity without fanfare or any expectation of anything in return. I married a woman who came from a similar family. Her parents took in their nieces after the untimely death of their mother. Now I have found these people with giving hearts again among our board of directors and community supporters. What they have in common with my family is their empathy. Government bureaucracies have no empathy. They have rules and regulations. One can only hope that legislation they enact is guided by values rooted in

the felt needs of real people. We cannot rely exclusively on government to take care of us. We must rely on one another. We cannot allow empathy to slip away, as it sometimes seems it is. The demise of empathy is perhaps the most perilous consequence in today’s divided America. When all else fails, empathy is all we have to maintain a humane society.

Married To Your Best Friend Tips on staying happy ‘Until Death Do Us Part’

BY JEREMY SKOW

editorial@antonmediagroup.com

E

arly dating can be passionate and exciting. There may be long, sweet kisses. There may be long-stemmed roses. There may be intensely romantic nights that take our breath away. It’s the ‘honeymoon phase.’ We may currently be savoring the embrace of our honeymoon or perhaps reminiscing about the nights we stayed up laughing until the sun came up. Sadly this ardor doesn’t last forever. It wouldn’t be called a phase if it did, right? So what then is the secret to maintaining long-term happiness? We maintain our intimate friendship much like we cultivate a garden where the horticulture is comprised of

the three elements doing, talking and touching. The relationship Jeremy Skow flourishes when both partners tend to their garden every day. Start by doing something for your spouse that shows you’re paying attention and that you care. If she looks cold, get her a blanket or make her some tea. Do things together. Explore common interests or try things the other likes to do. Talking involves being emotionally supportive, listening and sharing. It means complimenting your partner on how she looks or calling him out of the blue just to let him know you are

thinking about him. Asking about her day and then actively listening may help her feel loved and connected. Be thoughtful. Talking about the oil bill, house chores or who’s going to pick up the kids doesn’t count. Healthy talking also means not being afraid to share what’s really on your mind. You need a thick skin. You are not afraid to talk to your best friend, are you? Fear of abandonment, fear of no longer being found attractive, fear of expressing that you don’t feel loved and fear of expressing that you are unsatisfied with the intimacy in your marriage are several areas that spouses are sometimes afraid to talk about. When fears are not discussed because they are uncomfortable, they are often expressed later as an emotion

‘‘

Making a big difference in your relationship is accomplished one small step at a time.

’’

we may be more comfortable with: anger. The honeymoon phase may have been very physical, but touching isn’t only about lovemaking. A warm kiss, a playful bit of footsie and stroking your partner’s cheek are all little gestures that only take a moment. But if you do

it right, the positive energy from the moment you create can carry you through a whole day. Kissing your partner in the elevator when no one is looking or admiring her while you caress her hand lets her know that you are completely connected with her. Making a big difference in your relationship is accomplished one small step at a time. Be mindful of the little things that mean a lot and you’ll extend your honeymoon or rekindle the old flame.

inter depression is still a mystery to scientists who study it, but many Americans suffer from this very real disorder—especially aging adults. Combined with depression, loneliness, and feelings of frustration, now is the time to pay special attention to your older loved one.

Be Affectionate Do not underestimate the power of affection. Hugs, holding hands and other physical gestures of affection have the potential to ease our minds. When your loved one confides in you, take their hand to show you’re supporting them through this. Make sure you hug them, and show them you care. These acts of affection make us feel less isolated, as well as reduce stress and anxiety.

Show Empathy Make sure you are showing your loved one empathy during this time. Aging can be difficult, and it is natural for some people to feel down. Validate their feelings, and talk about your own struggles or sadness.

Create New Memories

Listen

Create new traditions and memories. Seniors need many things to look forward to. Start new traditions they are easily able to participate in, like taking new pictures or inventing a fun family game.

When they vent about their feelings, really listen. Ask them further questions to ease their fears. Are they concerned they’re “in the way”? Do they feel like a burden? Let them know these feelings are valid, but not the case, and assure them they are a loved and valuable part of your family and life.

Include Them Make sure your loved one never feels unhelpful or unwanted. Include them in as many events and occasions as possible, whether it’s a graduation, a birthday, or the smallest gathering, keep them involved.

If you or a loved one are experiencing feelings of depression, there is help and there is hope. Be sure to seek proper medical help as well as therapy.

Spend Quality Time Spend quality time with your elderly parent. Make frequent family visits or calls with loved ones. Discuss current events, take them for a

Conscientious parents constantly remind their children to brush and floss, and routinely schedule dental checkups to make sure their teeth and gums are healthy—and staying that way. But youngsters aren’t the only ones who can use such reminders. Older Americans need to put a priority on their oral health as well, and research shows that as a group they aren’t doing so. In fact, the statistics are grim. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that almost every single American over age 65 (96 percent) has had a cavity, and 20 percent have untreated tooth decay. Another 65 percent suffer from gum disease, an ailment that has been linked to a host of other problems, such as strokes, heart disease and diabetes. Anyone who thinks they can ease up on dental care as they age is making a big mistake. Not only do poor dental habits affect what’s going on in your mouth, they also affect your overall health. Some of the CDC’s findings that are troubling include:

Oral cancer Cancers of the mouth (oral and pharyngeal cancers) are primarily diagnosed in older adults; median age at diagnosis is 62 years. That’s another reason it’s important for older people to have regular checkups. Your dentist can check for signs of oral cancer during those visits.

Dry mouth Most older Americans take both prescription and over-the-counter drugs, many of which can cause dry mouth. Reduced saliva flow increases the risk of cavities. Saliva helps prevent tooth decay, gum disease and bad breath, and also lubricates the mouth, making it easier to eat, swallow, speak and taste food. Sometimes dry mouth might just cause mild discomfort. At other times it can lead to significant oral disease that can compromise the person’s health, dietary intake and quality of life. As you age, proper oral care is just as important as ever,” Katz says. “It’s not something you want to ignore because your overall health is at stake.

New Bill Offers Low-Income Americans Free Medical Care A simple but effective mechanism to increase both choice and access to quality healthcare for the Nation’s Medicaid eligible poor, while saving billions in Medicaid and CHIP outlays, was recently introduced in the House of Representatives. Under the proposed law, doctors and medical professionals who offer medical care for low-income Americans would receive a tax deduction for each low-income patient they treat for free. The “Physician Pro Bono Care Act” was introduced by Rep. Dan Webster (R-FL) and Colin Peterson (D-MN). The bill has five additional co-sponsors. Many physicians are dropping out of the Medicaid program due to high administrative costs and procedural burdens. This bipartisan Physician Pro Bono Care Act (HR 856) effectively provides Medicaid and CHIP eligible individuals and families access to healthcare, the ability to choose their physicians and establish longterm patient-physician relationships. At the same time, the law would

provide physicians the opportunity to avoid Medicaid’s and CHIP’s costly administrative burdens and receive a simple charitable tax deduction for their services. The annual net savings of this charitable deduction approach to Medicaid and the CHIP program expenditures would be a multiple of the cost of the deduction. The Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) is a vibrant, vital senior advocacy organization that takes its marching orders from its members. AMAC speaks on members’ behalf, protecting their interests and offering a practical insight on how to best solve

the problems they face today. “This can be a bipartisan win-win to improve access and choice to healthcare for those of limited means and I urge the Congress to take up this legislation and pass it,” said Dan Weber, president and founder of AMAC. “From the positive feedback we’ve received from physicians, we believe medical care could be offered to as many as 7 million needy people,” Weber added. “This bill is a creative, commonsense solution that ensures our most vulnerable Americans have access to the care they need, from the doctor

they choose, at a price they can afford,” said Rep. Daniel Webster. “This bill removes government bureaucracy and red-tape that obstructs the patient-doctor relationship, and it expands access to doctors for some of the more vulnerable in our society.” “In addition to expanding care options for those most in need, the Physician Pro Bono Care Act also has the potential to save billions of dollars in federal healthcare expenditures,” said Rep. Colin Peterson. “I look forward to working with Congressman Webster to implement this important reform.” AMAC is the 1.5-million-member conservative alternative to AARP and has extensively lobbied in support of the measure. The organization will continue its work with House Members to encourage more co-sponsors as well as support from the medical and conservative communities, who supported a nearly identical version of the bill which was introduced in the last session of Congress. —Anton Media Group

Five Things That Impact Your Estate Beyond Your Will BY MARCUS O’TOOLE-GELO

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

Having a will is an essential part of an estate plan. A will directs how your probate assets will be distributed upon your passing, designates an Executor to be in charge of your estate, and allows you to create trusts for minor grandchildren or disabled beneficiaries. However, having a will is just part of the story. Here are five things that impact your estate beyond your will.

Joint Bank Accounts Most joint bank accounts are set up as “joint with rights of survivorship,” meaning that if one of the owners passes away, the other owner automatically inherits the whole account. As such, all assets in the account will pass to that joint account holder, regardless of what the decedent’s will says. If you add a child to an account for convenience or access, you may be unintentionally leaving more money to that child. Better to let a trusted child help you via a Power of Attorney.

account. Bank accounts and brokerage accounts can also be set up with beneficiaries, such as POD (payable on death) or TOD (transfer on death). For all Beneficiary of these assets, you can desigDesignations nate both primary beneficiaries Many assets pass outside and contingent beneficiaries. of your will because they have It is a good idea to check specific beneficiaries. Most the beneficiary designations retirement accounts (401k, 403b your financial institutions and IRA accounts, for example), have on file, as they may be life insurance, and annuities outdated. Changes in your pass to the beneficiaries you family circumstances, such name when you set up the as marriage, divorce, deaths,

births or adoptions, will warrant updating your beneficiaries.

Health Care Crisis No matter what your will says, if you haven’t taken steps to protect assets, a health care crisis can wipe out a family’s assets on the cost of care, including nursing home care or home health care. Placing assets into an irrevocable trust will protect those assets once five years have passed. The assets can then be left to your heirs and beneficiaries instead of being spent down on the cost of your care. Many families place their home into a trust as it is their largest asset. This can be accomplished while keeping the right to live in the home during your lifetime, retaining your STAR and Veteran’s exemptions, and even securing capital gains advantages for your heirs. During your lifetime, you will still be able to sell the property, buy a new house or invest the sale proceeds/cash if you prefer—and all the while those assets will be protected once the five years have passed.

Gifts If you give someone a gift, it is no longer part of your estate and will not pass under your will. Many people are familiar with the IRS “annual exclusion” gift, whereby an individual is permitted to make a gift in the amount of $15,000 per year to a beneficiary without incurring any gift tax consequences. However, if you need Medicaid coverage within five years, this gift will trigger a waiting period before you can be eligible for Medicaid benefits. While the gift is permissible for IRS purposes, it most definitely is not for Medicaid purposes. This mistake and its consequences can be quite costly. The better—and safer—plan is to place assets into an irrevocable trust.

and other matters of a financial nature on your behalf. A validly executed Power of Attorney is an important tool which will allow you to engage in estate planning and asset protection planning even in the event you suffer a debilitating illness. You should sign a Health Care Proxy and a living will as well. Drawing up a will is an important step in creating an estate plan, but there are many other factors to be taken into account. Speak to an experienced Elder Law and Estate Planning attorney to make sure your wishes are carried out and your family is protected.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s mostly good, until it isn’t. When people behave in unexpected and unpleasing ways, you’ll try and imagine why. Perhaps there are fears or pressures at play you don’t know about. Your compassion makes the actions of others less disruptive to the work you’re doing to move your own scene along. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don’t need to go searching for the perfect way to give back. Just do what you do best, visibly and often. People will ask for the exact sort of help you can easily give to make a difference. You’re coming into one of those rare cycles when everyone wins and the circle of generosity will swirl in perfect symmetry. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). What’s stopping you is not a lack of opportunity, talent or resources. What’s stopping you is a lack of belief. What will help is reminding yourself that others have done similar things and more is possible for you, too. Find examples to model, either famous or within reach. Study them so you can dwell in their influence. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There are three levels of learning. You can know something intellectually, and that’s the first level, but it won’t take long before it slips from mind unless you get to the second level, which involves your emotional investment. Level three is experience. You’ll get all three levels with something new you learn this week. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Friends are impressed that you take a stand on important issues. It’s an attractive quality, but you don’t think about it because you’re too busy in the process, which is changing your life. Because taking a stand isn’t just about believing in or agreeing with an idea, it’s about action and results that make a difference. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The one you love may be fully grown, but there’s a child within, innocent and worthy of your gentleness. It’s why you extend the benefit of the doubt when this person behaves in a way you don’t understand. Of course, you also have a child within you that needs to be looked out for, so don’t forget that part. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). While you very well may be the underdog in a situation, it won’t help to think of yourself that way. Get clear about all you bring to the table -- your fight, skills, a purpose that burns inside you and more. Then use your famous charm on yourself. As you convince yourself that you’ll be successful, you’ll make it so. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Because creativity comes so easily to you, you don’t always value it as much as you should. Ask supportive people to help you set your price, and your schedule. You don’t want to get into a position where you’re giving too much of your life away where it won’t be properly appreciated. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The very essence of being in a relationship is compromise. To share space, you’ll be required to move in and out of each other’s way. To share feelings or ideas, you need to bounce them off of one another. And what is at the end of all this compromise that makes it so worthwhile? Tenderness and connection.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). One reason people don’t clean up after themselves (actually or metaphorically) is that they know that someone else will do it. And if that someone is you, you can keep the dynamic going by simply continuing to handle things you really shouldn’t have to. Or you can end it by leaving messes to their rightful owners. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The usefulness of worry is debatable. Those with no worries may be happier, but are they perhaps also not taking enough responsibility or challenging themselves enough. Some small amount of worry though... could you think of it as the peppery sting that wakes up your senses to the rest of the dish? GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your reality is far more complicated and nuanced than other people might think. The reverse is also true. To be the recipient of an extension of grace is wonderful. To extend grace to others may be a bit harder this week, as it’s difficult to see how they deserve it. But you won’t be sorry you made the leap.

Nassau County Expands Successful Pilot Pothole Program

assau County Executive Laura Curran recently announced the expansion of a pilot program that provides an immediate fix for potholes, long-term permanent resurfacing programs and infrastructure goals for 2019. Curran has mandated an aggressive approach to roadway infrastructure investment, maintenance and improvement for pothole season. “With over 1,500 lane miles in Nassau, we have a lot of work to do,” said Curran. “It is vital to Nassau County’s residents and businesses to maintain a top-quality road infrastructure.” Looking toward the future to address infrastructure, Nassau County is undergoing a Roadway Sustainability and Compliance Study, through New York Metropolitan Transportation Council’s

United Planning Works Program (UPWP). The study is assessing existing roadway conditions on county-owned roads so that DPW staff can prepare ongoing long-term plans to maintain these roadways consistent with federal and state guidelines for pavement assessment and roadway signage. “The prior administration neglected road resurfacing. My team has put an aggressive plan together to get Nassau’s roads back in top-notch condition,” said Curran. “Let me assure you, we are listening, and we will get the job done.” “While conducting this study, we recognized that there was an immediate concern of roadway conditions, so the DPW began a pilot pothole program in fall 2018 for short term/interim resurfacing,”

said Brian Schneider, deputy county executive for Parks and Public Works. The pilot program has proven to be successful and DPW

DPW will continue with temporary resurfacing efforts throughout the winter if/when the weather is warm enough to accommodate the laying of asphalt.

plans to significantly expand it in 2019. In 2018, DPW filled a total of 60,057 potholes; paved 87 lane miles (up 20 percent from 2017); filled approximately 37 potholes per mile and deployed seven three-man crews a day during peak pothole season. In 2019, DPW plans on doubling these numbers to repave a total of 175 lane miles—a 130 percent increase since 2017. The county purchased six new hot boxes used for asphalt to address potholes and carry out the plan. “It is important for the gateways of our communities in Nassau County to be welcoming and safe for motorists. In particular, I am confident this will address safety concerns on Shore Road, enhance the area’s natural beauty and improve the

accessibility of the beach and playground,” said Legislator DeRiggi-Whitton. Historically, DPW has bid $4-5 million resurfacing contracts. This year, DPW will bid a $15 million road resurfacing contract to solicit interest from new firms capable of delivering large projects, as well as expanding their vendor pool. The new contract will include incentives for the firm selected to complete the resurfacing of more than 63 lane miles within the 2019 paving season. DPW contractors will begin permanent repaving in the spring and will continue with temporary resurfacing efforts throughout the winter. Report potholes to the Nassau County Department of Public Works, Highway Maintenance Unit at 516-5716900. —Nassau County

ouisiana cuisine exists in a world of striking descriptors—it’s a world of alligators and mud bugs, of dark roux and Fat Tuesdays, of Cajun spice and rich flavors. It’s a food native to the south with notes of celebration thanks to its association with the city of New Orleans. And every so often, it’s a cuisine that travels north in the most engaging of ways. Top Hat Oyster Bar & French Quarter Kitchen, born from the remnants of a gastropub, opened less than a year ago in Bellmore. Now, customers dine

under enormous chandeliers in a restaurant flush with purple lighting, Mardi Gras-inspired accents and food and drink menus that offer a hearty callback to the cuisine’s southern roots, with just enough of an East Coast vibe to keep the locals comfy. Each table receives a warm French baguette in a bag and are encouraged to “break bread” with their hands as those from Louisiana are apt to do. At the top of the menu lives Top Hat’s oyster offerings, starting with a raw selection at $3 per oyster.

Voodoo Wings and vinegar-based herbsaint mignonette condiment. From there, things get interesting with the char-broiled oysters. These pearls of the sea boast that telltale char flavor, lovingly enhanced by garlic butter and parmesan. This is the perfect time to utilize the aforementioned French baguette, as the garlic butter-parmesan concoction demands to be mopped up. Other oyster selections include Oysters Bienville, with Cajun bacon, mushrooms, sherry and Hollandaise; the signature Oysters Top Hat (for two), featuring shucked oysters with artichokes, pancetta, herbs and garlic bread crumbs; along with fried oysters and Oysters Rockefeller. From there, we arrive at the small plate starter menu, where some lesser-known fare mingles with time-tested favorites. The Voodoo Wings come highly recommended, and are served with a pleasantly different buttermilk pecan blue cheese dressing. There are also plenty of Louisiana favorites here, including seasoned shrimp or chicken Creole gumbo, a deconstructed muffuletta platter, Cajun jumbo lump crab cake and a New Orleans sausage duo, with Louisiana Boudin stuffed Andouille served with lavender honey and Creole mustard sauce. But this writer encourages eaters to step out of their comfort zone for the Alligator in a Blanket, which offers Louisiana gator (yes, from Louisiana) in a puff pastry with a Creole mustard dipping sauce. The gator indulges the eater with a slight snap of gaminess, that is immediately quelled by the buttery puff pastry. The way it’s prepared, the gator isn’t stringy in the slightest—instead it is juicy and truly reminiscent of pork in fatty flavor. Top Hat also offers an array of salads, along with a selection of Po’ Boys, all fully dressed with lettuce, tomato, pickles and Blue Plate Mayo with French fries and Mirliton apple slaw. The Po’ Boys run the gamut from shrimp to sweet potato to roast beef to oyster to blackened chicken to surf and turf with roast beef, shrimp and New Orleans staple debris gravy. Before delving into the entrées, there’s a section of the menu dubbed “Louisiana Specialties,” with all the favorites laid out in all their splendor. There’s Creole shrimp and grits, jambalaya, cornmeal-crusted bronzed catfish and a slow-roasted deboned half duck. But chef’s favorite is the classic étouffée, featuring crawfish (the legendary “mud bug”), with

Right: Oysters Top Hat with shucked oysters, artichokes, pancetta, herbs, garlic bread crumbs Below: Top Hat’s take on the classic Muffuletta sandwich (Photos by Top Hat)

New Orleans’ Holy Trinity of onions, celery and bell pepper, cooked in the almost mythical dark roux, a heavenly thickener made with fat, flour and plenty of patience. The impossibly rich preparation is the

perfect bath for strong crawfish, as it all culminates in a stimulating and succulent combination that will keep your flavor receptors guessing and your brain synapses flashing. Entrées are served with Haricot Verts and Creole mustard smashed potatoes. These include the Mojo Berkshire Pork Chop with root beer-glazed Granny Smith apples; Pecan Crusted Salmon; and the Slightly Blackened Gulf Fish & Creole Crab Cake. Flip the menu over for a gander at Top Hat’s impressive cocktail selection. The first one listed, and for good reason, is the Top Manhattan, a heady and classic beverage with bourbon, sweet vermouth and black cherry juice. The Whiskey Hurricane blows in with Breckenridge, Red Bush, Bacardi, orange juice, pineapple, grenadine and passion fruit. There’s also Louisiana and New Orleans classic cocktails, like the Alabama Slammer, Voodoo Sunrise, Vieux Carre and a wild Absinthe Frappe. Allow your server to convince you to try dessert, specifically the Bananas Foster Parfait, which takes the New Orleans classic and dollops it into a glass for a sweet end to a raucous meal.

“The job of the press is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.” —American humorist Finley Peter Dunne While Jimmy Breslin and Pete Hamill may not have uttered these words out loud, it’s a mantra that defined the work the duo did as reporters throughout the roughly five decades the two were churning out columns for the New York Herald Tribune, the Daily News, Newsday and the New York Post. It’s a world perfectly captured in the documentary Breslin and Hamill: Deadline Artists, a film directed and produced by journalists/filmmakers Jonathan Alter, John Block and Steve McCarthy. Clocking in at nearly two hours, the film draws from a large number of colleagues, family and friends weighing in on the impact the twosome had, along with the subjects themselves. Among those tapped for their insight were Les Payne, Gloria Steinem, Earl Caldwell, Gay Talese, Tom Wolfe, Garry Trudeau, Robert De

Niro, Shirley MacLaine, Mike Lupica, Spike Lee, Gail Collins, Governor Andrew Cuomo and Colin Quinn. It was quite a surprising response Alter had when he received word back from one of Breslin’s stepchildren that the veteran scribe was ailing. “In the early summer of 2015, I heard from Jimmy Breslin’s step-daughter that he wasn’t doing too well. It struck me that the timing was good and important to just go over and try to get as many of his memories and reactions to things on tape as possible. I had two friends and former NBC news colleagues [ed. note: John Block and Steve McCarthy], who also live in Montclair, NJ. We just went over to Jimmy’s apartment and we brought Pete [Hamill] over because we thought it would make it more interesting if we had him there as well,” he explained. “We had no idea if there would be a movie or if they would let us come back again. We just started shooting in the summer of 2015. We went over and spent time with the two of them. Then we started talking to some big-time people we knew or knew of. It turns out that everyone was willing to talk

about Jimmy and Pete. Nobody turned us down except for assassins—David Berkowitz, the Son of Sam, and Sirhan Sirhan and Bernard Goetz.” Utilizing an enormous amount of archival material, the filmmakers not only highlighted the significant events both men covered extensively—the JFK and RFK assassinations (both were on-site for the latter when it happened), the Vietnam War, the Son of Sam slayings, the Goetz subway shooting, the false rape accusation of the Central Park Five, 9/11—but dove extensively into their origins and personal lives. To their credit, Alter and company also shared lesser lights, such as Breslin being accused of racial slander by co-worker Ji-Yeon Yuh or Hamill’s struggles with alcoholism until he quit back in 1972. With so much content to work with, the balanced presentation in the end product was a result of hard decisions made in the editing process. “We had such an embarrassment of riches in the material that figuring out what to use and what to leave on the cutting room floor was extremely difficult,” Alter said. “It was very difficult weaving it together because it was really five movies in one—it was a movie about Jimmy Breslin, it was a movie about Pete Hamill, it was a movie about race and class in New York, it was about American journalism and finally it was a movie about writing. The [issue] of doing justice to

all of those scenes and also making it entertaining and flow was a significant challenge.” With both Breslin and Hamill coming from humble backgrounds (the former from Jamaica, Queens, and the later born in Park Slope, Brooklyn) and having nary a scrap of journalism education, what was most impressive was the heights both rose to—Breslin won a Pulitzer while Hamill won a Best Liner Notes Grammy for his essay on the 1975 Bob Dylan album Blood On the Tracks in addition to being recognized with the George Polk Career Award in 2014. Impressed by Breslin’s complexity and Hamill’s consistent soulfulness, Alter has a message for anyone that never experienced the duo at their height and the legacy they’ve left behind. “I want [viewers] to understand that what journalists do is important and it can be fun, invigorating and important all at the same time. And that [Jimmy and Pete] spoke truth to power,” the director said. “I think they would inspire people to do better and I hope people will do better after they watch the film. Not just journalists, but anyone who is interested in taking an active role in American life.” Breslin and Hamill: Deadline Artists is currently airing on HBO. Check local listings for times.

The last few years have seen a number of career highlights popping up for the beloved UK progrock band. Two years ago marked the 50th anniversary of Days of Future Passed, the game-changing concept album that featured a song cycle aided by the London Festival Orchestra whose plotline took place over the course of a day. And last year saw the group’s belated induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. For John Lodge, the group’s bass player, it’s a welcome ride

that’s found him staying busy outside the band with his own solo efforts. He’s currently on the road supporting 2015’s 10,000 Light Years Ago, a project that proved so popular that it was followed up by 2017’s Live From Birmingham: The 10,000 Light Years Tour concert album. The interesting footnote to his 2015 recording was that this sophomore bow came 38 years after his solo debut, 1977’s Natural Avenue. As to the inspiration for him to return to the studio, it was something as simple as the resurgence of an old recording format. “I wanted to get involved and make an album because vinyl was, and still is, making a really good comeback. I [wanted to] make an album and release it on a double-gatefold sleeve and 180-gram

vinyl and get that full-frequency sound back,” he explained. “So I sat down and wrote the songs and one of them was a song called ‘Simply Magic.’ I thought it sounded like a Moody Blues song. I thought I better ring [Moodys band mate] Ray Thomas up, because he lived right around the corner from me, about a mile away. I rang him up and said that I’d written this song and I’d love to have him play flute on it. So I went around to his house and while we were recording, Ray said we should get [ex-Moody Blues keyboardist] Mike [Pindar] to play mellotron. I thought it was a great idea, so I got in touch with Mike, who I hadn’t worked with in years. But we’ve kept in touch over time, and I asked if he’d play mellotron and he said, ‘Of course, I’d love to.’ So I sent him the files and he put the mellotron on, and he sort of completed a circle for me.” While the status of The Moody Blues is currently dormant as both Lodge and vocalist Justin Hayward are touring solo, fans will still get a taste of material from the former as part of his current set-list that includes “I’m Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band),” “Gemini Dream” and “Ride My See Saw.” The show will also serve as a nod to the late Thomas, the bass player’s childhood friend who passed away on

The Moody Blues circa 1970 (John Lodge, far right) Jan. 4 of last year, a few months before the Moody Blues were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. “I’m a Moody Blue and I’ll always be a Moody Blue really. So I’ll be playing some of my Moody Blues songs and songs from my album 10,000 Light Years Ago, along with a couple of songs that the Moody Blues will never play again,” Lodge said. “Ray Thomas was my best friend in the Moodys. We grew up together since we were 15. Unfortunately, Ray passed away and so I’m going to do a song of his on stage called ‘Legend Of the Mind,’ because

I want to keep his music alive. I was an integral part of making that song work for Ray, so I’m really pleased to be doing that. And I’m going to be doing a song of Mike Pinder’s as well called ‘The Sunset’ from Days of Future Passed. Hopefully, it’s going to be a set of songs that will take the audience on an emotional journey through the Moody Blues and through John Lodge.” Last year’s induction of the Moody Blues into the Roll Hall of Fame found the ever-modest Brit feeling even more touched by the honor.

“On the day when we were at the Hall of Fame, I suddenly realized that my heroes were in there. I’m thinking to myself, ‘I’m standing next to Buddy Holly in the Hall of Fame.’ And there’s this young kid from Birmingham who was 13, me, who actually saw Buddy Holly on stage at Birmingham Town Hall,” he said with a pause. “There’s me looking at Buddy Holly on stage— this incredible person who’d written all these songs and was performing them and I’m watching him. He’s my total hero and now to suddenly be able to say in a strange way that I’m standing shoulder to shoulder with Buddy Holly at the Hall of Fame. It was an amazing and fantastic experience. I think what sort of got to me was that when they announced that we were going to be nominated and the fan vote started, it got up to one million people. It was mind-blowing, belittling and humbling at the same time.” John Lodge will be appearing on Feb. 14 at Suffolk Theater, 118 E. Main St. Riverhead.

ofstra men’s basketball coach Joe Mihalich is currently in his sixth season as head coach of the Pride, and while he had already brought back a winning culture to the program, this team may be his best to date. “I think the pieces fit together here better than any other year,” said Mihalich. “We have really good players. We have a star in Justin Wright-Foreman. We have a co-star in Elijah Pemberton. We have a terrific point guard. We have real good shooters. And really, the harmony between these guys is the best ever.” Hofstra currently sits on top of the CAA Conference, sitting as the clear favorite to capture the regular season title. Even if they lose one or two games down the stretch, they are in good position to have the highest seed when they play in the CAA tournament in Charleston. Mihalich credits the team’s bond to their climb to the top. “I think the biggest key to our success is that it’s been a close-knit team,” said Mihalich. “It’s not just about the talent. We have talent. But what it comes down to is that we play well together, we work well together. The team really likes each other.” As of Feb. 1, the Pride has a 16game winning streak, which sits alone as the longest active streak in the NCAA on the Division-I level. They are among the top 10 schools in the nation in win percentage and among the top 25 in field goal percentage, three-point field goal percentage and free throw percentage. “It’s amazing,” said Mihalich. “It’s an incredible feeling and we’re just trying to enjoy it as much as we can. I tell my guys that these things don’t happen a lot. They happen very, very rarely. So, we’re trying to enjoy it knowing that it could be over in the very next game.” Wright-Foreman, a senior, has been the best player in the conference this season and is in the running to win

He averages 26 points and 3.5 assists per game this season, improving on last year’s numbers. Pemberton may not get the spotlight as much as Wright-Foreman, but he’s had a huge impact in games including some crucial game-winning shots. “Coaching them is a coach’s dream,” said Mihalich. “Coaching guys like Wright-Foreman and all these guys is great because they love the game. They really work hard and have incredible attitudes because they want to get better all the time. They’re also incredibly competitive and hate to lose.” For Mihalich, the game that has defined their season thus far was the Jan. 5 game against Northwestern at

home. With 4:30 on the clock, Hofstra was done by nine points and rallied to win it with a buzzer-beater shot by Wright-Foreman, sending the Mack Sports Complex into chaos and setting the stage to their unstoppable month. “I mean, they were the best team in the league and we still found a way to win the game,” said Mihalich. Hofstra is trying to earn its first berth into the NCAA Tournament since the 2001 season, back when now-Villanova-head coach Jay Wright led the Pride to back-to-back tournament appearances. Mihalich did coach his former team, Niagara, to the big dance, so he has been in this position before. “We have to get better,” said Mihalich. “If we like what’s going on now and we want it to continue, we’re

going to have to work even harder. They have to understand that we can be better because we are the hunted now. Everybody wants to get us now.” Regardless of how the next few months play out, Mihalich earned one big milestone he can look back fondly on his 100th victory as the head coach of Hofstra Pride. For a school that has waited for the team’s return to the biggest stage in March, they are hoping for many more out of him. “I’m very proud of my success here,” said Mihalich. “I am blessed to be the coach here. It’s an incredible place. I’m honored to be a head coach at a fine institution like Hofstra. I’m glad we can be successful here because if we are, everyone benefits.”
