TOP STORY

Making Manhasset Bay Sewanhacky Again North Hempstead program seeks to reintroduce oysters

FRANK RIZZO

“

frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

he natives who settled Long Island reportedly named it Sewanhacky— “the place or isle of shells”—in the Algonquian language, The abundance of shellfish has shaped the history of this 118mile stretch of land. According to the Long Island Sound Study website, “Manhasset Bay was used for fishing and shellfish harvesting by the Algonquin Matinecock tribe for thousands of years and was the largest oystering harbor on the North Shore of Long Island in the 1800s.” Once, it was safe to harvest and eat shellfish from Manhasset Bay. It’s something the state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has not allowed in decades due to the excessive level of bacteria. Port Washington native and fourth generation resident Mariann Dalimonte recalls a halcyon youth of spending days on the bay or nearby ponds—skating, swimming and fishing. The shellfish were abundant, right under their feet, she related. She picked them up by the handful and took them home, where her mother, Lois Baslaw, would make “Manhasset Clam Chowder” or baked clams. “I don’t know if the DEC allowed you to [harvest them then], but I’m still alive today (chuckling),” she told a reporter. “So if I get arrested after you print your article, you’ll have to bail me out.” To which someone else rejoined that the statute of limitations surely must have passed. It’s not just nostalgia that has led the North Hempstead trustee to spearhead a pilot program to reintroduce oysters to the

How amazing would it be to clean up Manhasset Bay and bring back shellfishing? I’m just trying to make it a better place for all of us.

”

—Councilwoman Mariann Dalimonte

As she explained in introducing a resolution at the April 28 board meeting, “A significant priority for me as an elected official has been the protection and preservation of our local environment. Manhasset Bay is a local treasure, serving as a communal destination for residents and boaters, while also acting as a vital ecosystem for marine flora and fauna. Having and maintaining a thriving oyster population in one of North Hempstead’s most essential waterways will help to reestablish marine habitats, improve the quality of the water, provide economic stimulus by attracting visitors to nearby downtowns, and ultimately enhance a destination that is beloved by residents across the greater North Hempstead community.”

Ranked #1 for Long Island

At that meeting, her fellow councilmembers unanimously passed the resolution authorizing an agreement with Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE) of Suffolk County for a pilot oyster restoration project in the bay. The town has supplied $19,400 to the program from its capital funds. She related that within weeks of assuming office, on Jan. 1, 2020, she convened a meeting to explore this possibility and was told that it could not be done. She did not accept that answer. Dalimonte recalled thinking, “I don’t understand how there could be oysters in Jamaica Bay and yet we can’t have them in Manhasset Bay. It just didn’t make sense to me.” Undaunted, Dalimonte continued

to push and was rewarded when North Hempstead Chief Research Officer Jeanine Dillon “got us in contact with Governor [Kathy] Hochul’s office and we had a meeting with her office and the DEC. They were amazing. They put us in touch with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk County. When we met with them I was crying tears of joy because I said, ‘Oh my God, this might become a reality.’ ” CCE Suffolk operates shellfish growing operations under a license from the DEC. “I started looking into oysters because they are a natural resource that can filter the water,” Dalimonte said. “An oyster can filter 50 gallons of water per day.” On May 12, Dalimonte joined CCE staff and others on the bay to scope out and mark three possible locations to start oyster colonies. “So now our next step is bringing a diver, probably in the month of June, from Cornell Cooperative and he’s going to check out the three locations that we found and give us a thumbs up or thumbs down. If he gives us a thumbs-down we’re going to go out and find different areas.” The baby oysters will then be introduced and monitored for a number of months. If they thrive and multiply, a more intensive effort will begin in 2023 to expand their numbers by one million. CCE Associate Marine Program Director Lorne Brousseau told the Manhasset Press that the oysters—called by various common names and present along the east coast from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico and known as Crassostrea virginica—are the same ones enjoyed in restaurants, “just in a different form. The ones that you eat in a restaurant are single seed oysters, uniform in shape and size and all that. These are what we call spat-on-shell. These are oysters grown on other shells and they grow in clumps, which is not desirable for a

SCHOOL NEWS

Panzik, Giannopoulos Earn Board Berths

FRANK RIZZO frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

anhasset voters might have expressed their unhappiness over Manhasset School District Board of Education policies and decisions by ousting two-term incumbent and board Vice President Christine Monterosso on on May 17. District residents who cast their ballots approved the 2022-23 school budget by a 2,334 to 912 margin (71.9 percent). Proposition 2, using reserves to fund capital projects, passed 2,227 to 676 (76.7 percent). The board of education election results saw Steve Panzik (1869 votes) and Nadia Giannopoulos (1702) win the two contested seats, ahead of Allison O’Brien Silva (1478) and Monterosso (1419). Their terms begin on July 1, 2022 and end on June 30, 2025. Panzik is a physical therapist and owns a fitness studio. He was essential in developing the successful Manhasset Crew program, in which he serves as coach and director. He and his wife Shaz have three children in the district, Hunter (senior), Logan (junior) and Shea (sophomore). Shaz is the school nurse at St. Mary’s Elementary School in Manhasset. Giannopoulos holds degrees in general and special education and is a doctoral candidate pursuing a degree in leadership and learning in organizations. She holds leadership positions in the Girls Scouts and the Katie Oppo Research Fund. Giannopoulos also serves as executive director at NYC’s Marie Pense Center. Per its website, it “provides intervention services to children in their home and community settings including: preschools, hospitals, homes and day care centers.” “Working in New York City has allowed me the opportunity to support children and staff from diverse demographics and needs,” she said at a candidate forum on May 9.

Forum Questions

Several questions asked at the candidates forum hosted by the League of Women Voters of

Nadia Giannopoulos touted her educational degrees during a candidate forum. (Screen Capture) Port Washington and Manhasset touched on the controversies that have affected school elections this year. They involved such issues as teaching critical race theory and the “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” movement. One salient question, given the lawsuits against the state mask mandates by several school districts, was: : Board of education members take an oath to uphold federal, state and local laws, regulations, policy and mandates. Will you push back against government mandates, and if yes, how would you push back without losing state funding if you believe they are unhelpful and detrimental to children? This is how the winning candidates responded: Giannopoulos—“I think that we learned a lot of lessons during the pandemic. We learned that there are laws, there are mandates and there’s guidance. And all three go into different buckets and it’s important to consult with our school attorney in order to apply the guidance accordingly from state regulations and to know how to distinguish between laws. “I agree we have to always follow the law. That is first and foremost. And we needed to get our kids from remote learning back into school in a safe manner. Moving forward, if we were in another pandemic—I hope it never happens again—I think it’s important to seek other opportunities for mitigation strategies where we could include masks, but also make use of our facilities so children are spread out so that maybe they don’t have to wear masks and they could still have a

safe distance from their teachers and other peers. I agree we must always follow the law, but also aim to provide an education in the least restrictive environment possible while keeping our kids and our teachers safe.” Panzik—“The number one goal has to be keeping every kid safe, and after that

Steve Panzik gained the most votes in the election. (Screen Capture)

said he had spoken with Interim Athletic Director Tom Howard and District Clerk Christine Michelen and told them that “if I do have the opportunity to sit on the board, I would resign at the end of the season so there would be no conflict of my own personal employment with the school along with the school board. That is something that the Manhasset Crew board is aware of as well.” He added, “Our last race will be as early as May 28 or as late as June 9, and that is when I would cease my role as a coach for the Manhasset School District.”

Politicized?

our goal needs to be keeping kids in school learning, keeping them there with their teachers. With that being said, we have to follow the law New York State sends down. “However, we need to make sure that New York State is following the proper legal process when they’re sending that law down. We have to make sure that as a community and as a board we can objectively look at something and make sure that it is appropriate and correct and follows the proper protocols to get to us. “We need to make sure that our kids are safe we need to make sure that we’re keeping them in the classroom with the teachers. Then we need to make sure above all else that we are providing a healthy environment for them so that they can find those avenues for success.” Panzik, in reply to a question about possible conflict of interest,

Normally low key and with low turnout, school board elections gained unusual attention this year as organized groups sought to weigh in on such issues as curriculum, mask mandates, reading lists and gender identification—and back candidates who called for more parental input on these topics. A group calling itself The Loud Majority sent at least one member to a Manhasset board of education meeting in February and that meeting was the focus of video blogger Shawn Farash’s

livestream the next morning, drawing more than 8,000 viewers. According to Farash, his group opposed the mask mandates and the “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” movements in schools. He was particularly critical of transgender acceptance and unigender bathrooms. Further, his group backed board candidates in line with its views. It is not known if any of the Manhasset candidates received backing from any outside organized group. An analysis by New York State United Teachers claimed that teachers unions helped elect 295 candidates in districts statewide, Further, “The union reviewed 570 school budget votes and found that 563 passed, a 99 percent passage rate. Just seven were defeated.” This has been the case ever since Governor Andrew Cuomo enacted his 2 percent property tax cap last decade, ending years of often high tax hikes. According to the same release, more than 95 percent of school budgets have passed annually since 2013. The Manhasset Press reached out to Panzik, Giannopoulos and Monterosso for statements, but had not heard back as of press time.

MANHASSET BAY from page 3 restaurant.” He added, “Basically, baby oysters can be called spat. What we’ll be doing in Manhasset Bay is introduce spat-on-shell. It already comes attached to clam shell or something like that and grow in clumps.” Oysters feed on algae, he related, which is another great reason why it’s good to have lots of oysters in the bays. It helps reduce algae blooms, which lead to fish kills and other unwanted outcomes. “You’ve had experience placing these oysters in different waters and they’ve performed as advertised?” he was asked. “Yes, we’ve done it for years now and a number of other groups do it,” he replied. “There are places where you put them and they do great, and places where they don’t do so well. That’s what we’re doing this year, a pilot where we’re trying three places in Manhasset Bay to see which of the three they do their best at.” Brousseau added, “We put the clumps of oysters right at the bottom. You want sandy bottoms because if it’s muddy, then they sort of sink into the mud and then they’ll die.” They do have predators, he said, but are less vulnerable when in clumps as opposed to single oysters. As to their filtering powers, Brousseau noted that they can take out some pathogens like bacteria as well. He talked of history, stating, “Long Island has always been a Mecca for oysters, clams, for all shellfish. It’s been an incredible

place for them to breed and grow and it’s supported a very large fishery [employing] thousands of people. It’s a great place for it historically. So that’s the goal, to bring them back and increase the populations.” CCE Suffolk is part of the DEC effort named Restore New York Shellfish, operating on Long Island and New York City “to establish new restoration sites in strategic embayments,” according to the DEC. According to Brousseau, “We have permits from the DEC in other areas around Long Island to do these sort of efforts, so that’s one of the reasons why North Hempstead came to us. We have experience doing it and we have a good relationship with the DEC—they trust us to put them in the right place and do the right thing.”

Community Effort

It takes an entire community to protect and preserve the natural environment, Dalimonte reflected. “You have to work as a team,” she pointed out. “If we’re putting oysters in the bay, you have to get people to not to use fertilizer on their grounds and get people to not litter on [a] main street because then that litter goes into a storm drain and the storm drains go out to the bay. It’s a domino effect. I really feel education is the most important thing.” She is trying to find a volunteer to help her office identify every house and private yacht clubs and beach associations that adjoin the bay. If the pilot program is successful, she will organize a public meeting to get volunteers to place oyster beds on their water.

Dalimonte already talked to representatives of the Port Washington and Manhasset Bay Yacht Clubs about using the oyster introduction as an educational tool for their younger members. She even mentioned the Manhassetbased Long Island Science Museum. “We could make this a community effort in the spring of 2023,” Dalimonte said. “The learning that will take place is beyond exciting. It can really teach the next generation of residents in the Town of North Hempstead because you have everybody [that touches the bay] in here, not just my district. How amazing would it be to clean up Manhasset Bay and bring back shellfishing? I’m just trying to make it a better place for all of us.” “This is the start, it’s a pilot program,” she continued. “I have been pushing for this project for two years. And we kept on hitting roadblocks. I give a lot of credit to Jeanine Dillon. She knew how important this was to me. We worked so hard on this. When we put that first oyster in the water I’m going to be popping apple cider

According to the Manhasset Bay Protection Committee, stormwater runoff is a prime factor in the bay’s pollution because it’s not treated. It’s defined as rain or snowmelt that flows over the land and into Manhasset Bay, collecting trash and other pollutants as it travels. Here are some things you can do to keep stormwater just that, water: • Do not put anything in a storm drain. Ever. “Only rain down the drain!” • Contain rainwater on your property by utilizing rain barrels and installing a rain garden. The Town of North Hempstead offers workshops in the spring of most years that can help you get started. • Pick up after your pet and dispose of waste in the trash. Animal wastes contain bacteria and viruses that can contaminate swimming beaches. • Do not feed geese and other waterfowl. • Maintain your car and fix leaks promptly. • Wash your car only when necessary and consider using a commercial car wash that recycles its wash water. Alternatively, wash your car on grass where plants and naturally occurring bacteria in the soil can break down contaminants. —Courtesy of the Manhasset Bay Protection Committee

The Road Not Taken: Conservatism Today Review of The Right: The Hundred Year War For American Conservatism JOSEPH SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

ooks on American conservatism will always be more interesting than those about liberalism, if only because the losing side has a more poignant tale to tell. The term conservative is woefully out of place in a nation built around high-flying rhetoric: “All men are created equal,” “Life liberty and the pursuit of happiness,” proclaims the Declaration of Independence. Even the more somber U.S. Constitution seeks a “more perfect union,” guided by “We, the people.” The Right begins with the glory days of the 1920s: The presidencies of Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge. Sick of war, Americans craved normalcy. With this Republican duo they received it in bunches: No to the League of Nations, closed borders, industries protected, the family farm boomed alongside such roaring cities as New York and Chicago. The Great Depression, caused by over-lending practices, ended those good times. The New Deal, punctuated by World War II, left conservatism stuck in a permanent Loserville. The conservatism of William F. Buckley Jr.’s National Review hoped to bring “the intellectuals around.” Those efforts failed. The heartland beckoned. The Buckleyites had no qualms. Buckley, James Burnham and Frank Meyer all sang the praises of homespun Middle American values. William R. Rusher wanted to form a third party in time for the 1976 elections, featuring a dream ticket of Ronald Reagan and George Wallace. Conservatives wanted to “stand athwart” history. Populists sought not just to stop it in its tracks, but overthrow the entire edifice. Such men as Joe McCarthy, Wallace, Barry Goldwater, Pat Buchanan and Donald Trump come in for special scorn. Warranted? McCarthy’s witch hunt against communist infiltration was entirely justified (see M. Stanton Evans’s Blacklisted By History). Wallace made his fame by opposing school busing. How’d it turn out? In the 1950s, American test scores were number one worldwide. Six decades later, test scores have the U.S. as 13th in reading, 19th in science, and a dismal 38th in mathematics. Busing—and the enormous dislocations it caused—are a major factor. Concerning trade, immigration and opposition to New World Order wars, has Buchanan been wrong

about anything? The prairie fire of the 1970s paved the way for Reagan’s 1980 victory. The Reagan-Buckley era had arrived. Was America a conservative nation? Was the GOP a conservative party? Was it a Reagan party? For eight years, Reagan had to deal with a Democratic Congress. In the Senate, the GOP was led by Howard Baker and Robert Dole, two solons who ran against Reagan in the 1980 primaries. Reagan was one of those great men whose strengths and weaknesses were one and the same. The man was extraordinarily amicable and popular (ask the Democrats). He also held a peace pipe to the liberal East Coast GOP establishment that he had defeated. George H.W. Bush was his running mate. Worse, Reagan named James A. Baker III, a man who did everything possible to defeat Reagan in both 1976 and 1980, as his chief of staff. That remains inexplicable. Reagan succeeded on the economy, while presiding over the retreat of the Soviet Union. If not for the defeat of Robert Bork as his 1987 Supreme Court nominee, the social issues leg of the conservative agenda might have triumphed. Reagan was a longtime New Dealer. A dose of liberalism remained in his nervous system. Reagan was liberal on immigration. In 1986, he signed an amnesty bill into law, one that did nothing to address the border crisis. The decade saw a massive increase in legal immigration. The issue would bitterly divide conservatives for the next 30 years. Meanwhile, the nation that elected Richard Nixon and Reagan to landslide victories was lost forever. Rusher had the right idea. If conservatives had a golden moment, it was not 1980, but 1970. That year, James Buckley, the pundit’s older brother running on the Conservative Party line won a U.S. Senate seat in New York. Conservatives had the best of both worlds: the Democratic and Republican party candidates both whipped. The Conservative Party was very much a National Review thing; its editors wrote the party platform and gave its candidates much publicity. When William F. Buckley, Jr. attempted to launch that publication, he was told by his publisher, Henry Regnery, not to base a conservative journal in New York City. Go where its reader base is. What if NR had been based in Washington, D.C., instead? A third party could become a national party. The Conservative Party has fallen apart, mainly because the New York that elected James Buckley has also disappeared. Americans did not want a Reagan

Revolution that targeted entitlement programs. They would take eight years of peace and prosperity. The turning point was not the 2003 Iraq War as much as the 1991 Persian Gulf War. Up until then, all American involvement in 20th century wars were initiated by a Democrat (World War I, Wilson; World War II, Roosevelt; The Korean War, Truman; Vietnam, Kennedy, and Johnson). Republicans had the honor of either ending those wars or heralding in normalcy (Harding and Coolidge with World War I; Reagan winning the Cold War; Eisenhower ending the Korean War and Nixon settling Vietnam). All that ended when George H.W. Bush went to war in 1991 against Saddam Hussein over the latter’s invasion of Kuwait. With the Cold War resolved, it was time for more of the same. Instead, endless war: Iraq, Somalia, Haiti, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Iraq again, Libya and Ukraine. Conservatives supported them all. On the eve of the 1991 war, conservatism was still defined by three popular pundits: Buckley, Buchanan and George Will. Buckley and Will said “yes” to war. Buchanan said “no.” The latter’s argument was the road not taken. The author acknowledges populism’s legitimate demands: Border security, national sovereignty, “an emphasis on the condition of working people without college degrees” and a “reluctance toward humanitarian interventionism abroad.” Continetti just doesn’t view Trump as the right messenger. Continetti nails his fellow conservatives for not seeing the Trump wave. How could they? The Trump phenomenon was a white working-class thing. Conservatives live in Washington and New York. They are college-educated, usually at elite universities. Trump Country is a million miles away from their world. The Right is valuable history. It captures the sheer agony, pathos, despair and futility of being an authentic conservative in liberal society. The Old Right had ideas, convictions and principals. It lacked a political party to articulate those ideas into electoral politics. Conservatives have been routed so thoroughly that the only time they win is when the join the Left: Anti-Donald Trump, anti-Robert E. Lee and pro-same sex marriage. Compared to the cave-ins of the conservative elite, the hell-forleather populism of McCarthy, Wallace, Buchanan and Trump all had a lonely integrity to it.

Martin Freeman’s Fave Punk Bands DAVE GIL de RUBIO dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

t all started with a dream for Martin Freeman. That was the seed planted for Breeders, a British-American dark comedy about parenting co-created by the British actor with partners Chris Addison and Simon Blackwell that airs on FX. Freeman stars as Paul Worsley, who, along with partner Ally Grant (Daisy Haggard) are raising two children in London and dealing with the day-to-day of modern life. And while the premise doesn’t seem remarkable, the real-life approach in the plots is what sets this show apart from familial sitcoms full of precocious children and clueless parents. It all started with that aforementioned walk through slumberland for the Hampshire native. “I dreamt the scene of the first episode almost verbatim,” he recalled. “Those two things are cheek-by-jowl where one second you can go, ‘Oh my God, I would do anything for your kid’ and the next second you’re calling your baby a prick. I recognize those complexities. It sort of lent itself to me thinking that there could be something in this—a comedy. Yet it gets to points so dark and so harsh that I don’t think we’ve seen that before in a parental context. If it’s happened, apologies to that show. But I haven’t seen it to that extent that it’s hopefully very

realistic and three dimensional in a way that I think parenting and family life is. I partnered up with Chris Addison and Simon Blackwell and we created the show together. We’re all fathers. We all had an understanding that parenting is complicated—that’s not a new concept. We kind of laid it out there in all of our development stories where we were telling the least flattering stories about ourselves and the most embarrassing part of us being dads.” Now in its third season, Breeders mines the complexities of parenting with deft pivots that veer between relatable drama and pointed humor, something Freeman found lacking in other shows trolling the same subject matter. “We knew there was some comedic life in [parenting], where when you admit to your worst things, it’s very funny after the event, but not particularly funny at the time,” he said. “There were shows that I really liked that deal with parents and kids, but I was waiting for someone to scream at their kids. You’ve just told that kid four times to put that down and he just put a hole in the wall and you’re going, ‘Oh, come on, put that down.’ No, when is the bit when you truly lose your mind with rage at a kid through repetition and frustration. We wanted that to be very present in our show. I wanted us to have the bravery to go there when necessary.” Being a Brit of a certain age and someone whose love of music led to his being part of the 2015 documentary The Jam: About the Young Idea, Freeman was happy to share his favorite punk bands.

L LI IW IW LIW Buzzcocks (1976-1981; 1989-present)

The Jam (1972-1982)

“I love Pete Shelley’s voice and the dark humor of it. It feels like a lot of the best sort of punk of that kind. It’s that line between being an annoying little s*** and being a very profound poet. It’s this voice that niggles away at your brain. If you weren’t in the right mood for it or weren’t the right age for it at the time, you would have thought this was the worst music that ever happened. But if you were the right age, I was about five or six, so it wasn’t like I was in the sweet spot. But I was hearing it being played in the house—and it just felt subversive. For kids, that’s very attractive. But also, when you listen to it 40 or 45 years on, the lyrics of the Buzzcocks are really good.”

“What was great about The Jam was the amazing youth and talent of them as players. But also the prodigious talent of Paul Weller, who when the first album comes out, he’s 18 years old and his voice is all there. As a player, it’s all there. His voice is already really mature. They just hit the ground running and tapped into a certain thing about suburban Englishness that is unique and that’s why they still stand with a large swain of not only British people, but certainly suburban British people. We recognize a lot of that. People from just outside the city. That certain suburban thing is very much alive and feels very English.”

The Clash (1976-1986)

“One of the best debut albums ever. It was just amazing. They made a great racket and there is no one else like them. I quite enjoy their political pretension, even though some of it is clearly pretentious, but I like it. It’s just good sounds and really, really good songs. They made a lot of different sounds in the first few years of their career and they drew on different stuff really well.”

Sex Pistols (1975-1978; 1996; 2002-2003; 2007-2008)

“They had to happen. I do think John Lydon’s lyrics are truly brilliant on their first and really only proper album, Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols. The lyrics are really good and the grooves

LONG ISLAND WEEKLY

are really great. I like them as a band but there’s no one else, before or since, like John Lydon I think in that incarnation of his work. He was the perfect kind of sneering, funny little upstart, which life is full of. Real life is full of those kinds of people, but show biz is not full of those kinds of people. Again, if you were over 30 when that happened, most people thought it was the worst thing that happened to culture. But you give it 20 years and even people like my mum ended up loving Johnny Rotten. When they first came out, she would have thought, ‘Who the hell is this?’ But then, you realize the world didn’t end and they ended up being so cuddly in a way. I think some of the lyrics to the only proper album are really good. ‘God Save the Queen’ is a great lyric. ‘Holidays In the Sun’ is a great lyric.” Breeders airs on the FX Network.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR NATIONAL POPPY DAY Wear a poppy to honor those who have worn our nation’s uniform. The red poppy is a nationally recognized symbol of sacrifice worn by Americans since World War I to honor those who served and died for our country in all wars. It reminds Americans of the sacrifices made by our veterans while protecting our freedoms. It’s

the time of year when you most likely will come across a member of the American Legion Auxiliary in your community asking you to “wear a poppy in support of our fallen heroes.” Know that 100 percent of the donations raised through the distribution of poppies by American Legion Auxiliary members has exclusively supported active-duty

military, veterans and their families in the following ways: • For the rehabilitation of veterans honorably discharged from the United States Armed Forces after April 6, 1917; • For the welfare of the families of veterans of the above name period; • For the rehabilitation of hospitalized military service personnel

returning home and awaiting discharge who require treatment in service hospitals; and • For the welfare of veterans, active military personnel, and the families of veterans and active military personnel of the abovename period where financial and medical need is evident. Rosanne Spinner, American Legion Auxiliary – Nassau County Committee

Living In The Present

RABBI MOSHE WEISBLUM Every day counts to be fully engaged, making the most of each moment so we can enjoy more of them, love your family, appreciate the simple things in life. Are you living in a yesterday mindset? A prisoner of the past hardships? Are

you too worried about how you will survive tomorrow? Do you go to work feeling that your body was there, but your mind was thinking about yesterday, about what you could have done better? If you’re going to be appreciative and fulfilled you have to show up for life, be there when you get there. Not show up and be totally in the future and not show up and be in the past, living in regrets, dwelling on your disappointments. Have complete faith in our Creator and come into today. Yes, it’s good to have goals, visions, but try not to be so focused on them that you miss what you have right now. Sometimes, people lose the precious things they have by overlooking them and only going after what they want. They are so

intent on reaching that goal, slaves of that desire, doing great things, even their family is taken for granted, continuing to be distracted and thinking all the time about what’s next. Excessive preoccupation with the future caused them to lose the gifts of the present. Each of us has a mission with a personal connection to the Almighty, which gives us the ability to accomplish what at first might seem impossible. The way to this is by making each day count, bringing meaning and vitality to every moment. So be close, be connected to our Heavenly Father. Be grateful for the innumerous blessings our Creator shines upon us in the present. Don’t look for the road to joy, but enjoy the way and be happy every day!

Better Alternatives To The Multi Billion Dollar Hochul Brooklyn To Queens Subway Connection Already Available There are better alternatives to Governor Kathy Hochul’s new Brooklyn to Queens Subway Connection. The cost could easily be several billion more than the 2016. Regional Planning Association cost estimate of $1 to $2 billion.

Current G line service terminating at Court Square could be extended to Forest Hills, Continental Avenue. This would restore this connection which was

terminated several decades ago. In Brooklyn, G line service could be extended beyond Church Avenue to Coney Island Stillwell Avenue Terminal. This would provide connections to the D, N & Q lines. The G line Fulton Street train station is located several blocks from the Atlantic Avenue/Barclay Center LIRR/NYC Transit subway station complex. A simple underground passageway could be constructed. This could provide a direct indoor connection to the G line from the 2,3,4 & 5 IRT, B.D.N,Q & R BMT subway lines along with the Atlantic branch LIRR. Upon initiation of service to support East Side Access to Grand Central Terminal, the LIRR will convert this branch to a simple scoot service between Jamaica and Flatbush Avenue, maintaining stops at East NY and Nostrand Avenue.

Have you ever felt stuck in a relationship with a difficult person, unable to get your message through, powerless to change the situation? Too often, similarly, our mind is stuck with a feeling of confusion and uncertainty. It can relate to the past, our attention focused on what didn’t work out, who did us wrong, errors we’ve made or our ambiguous concern for the future, thinking about our goals, objectives, finances, health, relationships and more. The common mistake of solely focusing on the past or on the unknown future is that we often miss the appreciation and the joy of the present.

Majority’s Reforms Helping Resolve Long Term Fiscal Problem For decades, Nassau County has been plagued with refund liability resulting from successful property tax certiorari challenges made by residents and businesses. Under the “County Guarantee,” Nassau fully refunds county, town and school taxes from these assessment challenges even though it only receives a small fraction of the original overpayment. This inequity costs Nassau tens of millions of dollars annually, has led to bond rating decreases and is largely responsible for the continued existence of a financial control board. Over the years, the refund amount paid out by Nassau

MAJORITY REPORT Richard J. Nicolello

County is in the $1 billion range, substantial amounts of which

were paid with borrowed monies. Meanwhile, county residents have received no additional services in return for these payments. Thanks to a dedicated revenue fund created by the Republican Majority, the county has a historic opportunity to pay off millions of dollars of outstanding tax refunds owed to residents and businesses. In so doing, we can bring the county’s tax refund liability as close to current as possible. The Republican Majority’s special revenue fund is funded by sales tax revenues in 2021 that were much higher than the prior administration’s wildly

erroneous forecast. In fact, in 2021 the county took in $360 million more than had been forecast by the prior administration. These monies will be placed in a “lock box” account to be spent primarily to pay tax refunds owed by the county. The Republican Majority’s reserve fund is a win-win for the county and residents; it will allow the county to finally pay refunds it owes to residents and businesses, and it will benefit taxpayers by eliminating millions of dollars in compounding interest accumulating against that debt. This could not have come at a better time as

residents and businesses continue to recover from the pandemic. Reducing the county’s tax refund exposure puts the county in better position with rating agencies, which can lower our cost of borrowing. It also is a big step toward ending the oversight board’s control period. This good government initiative will help resolve an issue that has plagued the county for decades, free up taxpayer monies to be spent on services for our residents and help boost our economy at this crucial time. Nicolello is the presiding officer of the Nassau County Legislature.

The Guidance Center’s Work ‘Beyond Our Walls’ North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center is known throughout Long Island as the pre-eminent mental health organization for youth and families, providing individualized, culturally sensitive therapeutic services that serve to bring hope and healing to those experiencing mental health challenges. For nearly 70 years, the Guidance Center has been listening to your needs and concerns, and responding swiftly and compassionately. Since May is Mental Health Awareness Month, we wanted to share with you some important information on our offerings. As we told you in our April Anton column, we shifted to a hybrid model of service within days of the pandemic’s beginning, seeing clients both in person and via a secure telehealth platform. But if you picture the work of the Guidance Center as taking place only inside our three buildings or via a virtual platform, with a counselor and client sitting in an office or communicating via a smartphone or computer, think again. Many of our innovative programs happen beyond our walls, in places that range from state parks to schools to homes. The Guidance Center’s Wilderness Respite Program, now in its 23rd year, provides a unique opportunity for at-risk adolescents to put down their tech devices and participate in hikes and other nature activities that help them gain confidence and make lasting friendships. Nature takes a leading role in our two organic gardens, located at our main headquarters in Roslyn Heights and our Marks Family Right from the Start 0-3+ Center in Manhasset. By weeding, seeding

and tending to the crops, kids blossom as they learn important skills such as self-confidence, cooperation and responsibility. The Guidance Center also has a Nature Nursery, where our youngest clients use all their senses as they touch pine cones or paint on an outdoor “canvas.” The textures, sounds and sights help children explore their creative sides and learn skills to help cope with difficult feelings. In addition to therapy, our Latina Girls Project incorporates monthly outings to places such as theaters, museums and more. These trips boost the teens’ confidence and sense of independence and help them discover the larger world. In 2019, the trips expanded to include outings for boys that also have been a huge success. Students from 5-21, who’ve had a hard time succeeding in school have a great alternative with our Intensive Support Program (ISP), held at three Nassau County BOCES schools. There, they receive academic help and counseling, with therapists on site to help them flourish emotionally and academically.

We also work in Westbury High School and middle school with our Teen Intervene and Too Good for Drugs programs, designed to prevent substance and alcohol use. For children and teens who need our help but can’t come to our offices, the Guidance Center provides intensive in-home therapy with our Clinical Care Coordination Team (CCCT). CCCT aims to lessen acute symptoms, restore clients to prior levels of functioning, and build and strengthen natural supports. Through CCCT, our goal is to reduce unnecessary emergency room visits, hospitalizations and residential placements. Our Coordinated Children’s Services Initiative (CCSI) supports families with the coordination of services in their homes and communities, identifying and accessing resources, providing advocacy and helping children and families gain the skills and tools needed to be self-sufficient. Through our Family Advocate Program, parents who have been through mental health crises with their own children are trained to offer peer support for families by joining them at special education meetings, offering support groups and providing many other resources. In addition, we have enhanced services to the clients in our Diane Goldberg Maternal Depression Program by adding yoga classes and self-care outings. As you can see, the Guidance Center is always thinking “outside the box,” creating innovative programs that meet the needs of the community and enhance the therapeutic value of all our services. We are here for you. Kathy Rivera, LCSW, is the Executive

Dr. Sigmund Freud revived a public interest in animal therapy, specifically with dogs, in the 1930s when he brought his own pet Jo-Fi to therapy sessions and noted the calming effect it had on his patients. In 1961, Dr. Boris Levinson became known as the “father of animal-assisted therapy” when he accidentally left his dog Jingles alone with a young patient who was withdrawn and nonverbal. On returning, Levinson found the boy communicating with Jingles. He began using Jingles in his child psychotherapy sessions and wrote a book in 1969 called PetOriented Child Psychotherapy. Dogs are most often used in animal-assisted therapy because of their nonjudgmental nature and desire to protect others.

onnolly Elementary School in Glen Cove is giving students a break from the “ruff” school day with its first therapy dog program. Students are given time to pet, unwind and even practice their reading skills with a therapy dog to relieve stress. Connolly began a pilot program through which selected students meet with a Chocolate Labrador named Maddie and her handler twice a month. The school plans to bring in more dogs and extend the program to any student interested in participating. “Coming back from the pandemic, a lot of kids began showing anxiety and nervousness, so this was one of the ways we wanted to help them relax,” Principal Bryce Klatsky said. “Dog therapy has been around for decades and has been proven to have therapeutic benefits such as reducing stress and improving mood.” Teachers Patty Lucci and Morgan Steiger spearheaded the program, which was sponsored by local business AMP Construction and brings in dogs from Bideawee in Wantagh and Long Island Therapy Dogs. The first few sessions were geared toward students in the school’s reading program and gave them a chance to read to dogs without fear of judgement. “It really helps children who are shy or afraid to read in front of their peers. They could pet the dog and calm their nerves when they read. It also gives them a bit of extra love, which is sometimes all they need,” said Lucci. While animal-assisted therapy has been growing in popularity in recent history, the practice has been studied for over a century. Florence Nightingale, considered the founder of modern nursing, recognized its potential in the late 1800s when she paired children and adults in psychiatric institutions with small pets.

REDEMPTION ROAD:

The Jim Brown Story BY JOE SCOTCHIE

jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

“In some respects, Jim seems to be a rebel without a cause, an angry young man unclear about what angers him, He is an extremely complex person.” — Harvey Russell, vice president of Pepsi-Cola, in 1956

n the Village of Manhasset, virtually all of its citizens, throughout the centuries, have passed through this life in splendid anonymity. Few have lived public lives. The greatest standout has been Jim Brown, who from the late 1950s onward, lived a most public and consequential life. A native of St. Simons, GA, Brown was born in 1936. Seven years later, his mother moved to New York to find work as a domestic. The Brown family lived first in Great Neck before settling in Manhasset Valley. The young Jim Brown was educated in the Manhasset School District. In the 1950s Long Island, gangs of delinquent youth roaming the streets was not uncommon. Brown and his friends belonged to The Gaylords, a juvenile gang that behaved in the manner of the day. “We would go to other neighborhoods,

go to parties, try to pick up girls,” a childhood friend, the Rev. Ed Corley, told a Brown biographer. “We’d fight other gangs. Sometimes we won; sometimes we lost…One of the reasons we were all good athletes is because we were always running. We were either chasing other guys, trying to fight them, or we were being chased. Running, running, running. I was always running.” That running came in handy. At Manhasset High School, Brown came into his own. By his sophomore year, Brown stood six feet tall and weighed 174 pounds. Brown lettered in no less than five sports: Football, lacrosse, basketball, track and field and baseball. The New York Yankees scouted Brown as a pitching prospect. Brown was a halfback in football and a center lineman in lacrosse. As important, the young Brown had an

ally in football coach Ed Walsh. The latter knew that Brown was college material. The young man needed to make good marks. He listened to Walsh. Brown, according to biographers, graduated from Manhasset with a “B” average. With Walsh, Brown had a friend for life. No matter how far Brown traveled, Manhasset would remain a pleasant memory, his true home. The village, he claimed, “was always an example of how people should be treated.”

JIM BROWN from page 3B Colleges came knocking. Brown chose Syracuse, where he starred in both football and lacrosse. His talent in football came at the right time. With the triumph of the television set, football, as an action sport, was situated to replace baseball as the national pastime. After graduating from Syracuse, Brown was chosen in the first round by the Cleveland Browns. Cleveland wasn’t New York. It was however, a sports-crazy city of up to 900,000 residents. It was also coached by Paul Brown, an Ohio native who had led the team to championship glory in the 1940s and ‘50s. Brown quickly conquered the NFL. He, too, was highly popular in Cleveland. The NFL’s Golden Age was coming into its own: Vince Lombardi as head coach, Johnny Unitas and Bart Starr as the quarterbacks, Dick Butkus and Deacon Jones defining agile and quick defensive players—and Jim Brown as the running back. It wasn’t until Gale Sayers joined the NFL in the mid-1960s that Brown had any competition as the league’s top running back. No one who saw Brown play could forget the experience. In play after play, the defense knew what was coming. Brown was blessed with a solid offensive line and in Leroy Kelly, an All-Star blocking back. Brown was also a one-man show, combining speed and power like no back since Bronco Nagurski. Brown had his style. At the end of a play, he was always the last one up from the pileup. He got up slowly and just as slowly, walked his way back to the huddle. The man took countless cuts, bumps and bruises. However, part of it was tactical. “Getting up with leisure” was a way for Brown to conceal the physical punishment that came his way. Brown did not seek to be liked or even respected. He wanted to be feared. He wanted a defensive player to remember full well when Brown lowered his shoulder and gave him a good hit. Above all, a running back should never run out of bounds. Ever. In retirement, Brown publicly castigated such backs as Franco Harris and Kevin Mack for doing just that. What could they do? This was the greatest running back in history talking. Brown produced. He averaged 5.2 yards a carry. In 1958, he set a single-season rushing record, gaining 1,527 yards in 12 games. On it went. Brown was a Pro Bowler in each of his nine seasons. He was a three-time Most Valuable Player. He set records for single-season rushing (1,863 in 1963), career rushing (12,312 yards) and all-time leader in rushing touchdowns (106). He was the first player to reach the 100-rushing-touchdowns milestone. Think of the way Babe Ruth dominated major league baseball in the early 1920s and you can picture Brown’s own reign in the late 1950s and 1960s. As the 1960s unfolded, Brown felt he had to be more than an athlete. The

turmoil of that decade moved him deeply. He found a soulmate in Muhammad Ali, who held similar views. Americans had long preferred professional athletes be low-keyed and stoical. Again, the advent of television and the explosion of a celebrity culture would change that. Brown and Ali were friends. The two had different personalities. Ali, with Howard Cosell as his straight man, kept Americans entertained. By the 1980s, this 1960-style radical was now as much a part of the cultural establishment as Bob Hope or Jack Benny. Brown was the angry man. He never mellowed with the times. Ali’s main cause was his opposition to the Vietnam War and his refusal to comply with draft board orders. His style offended certain sensibilities. Still, the man had a point.

4B | YOUR MANHASSET • MAY 25 - 31, 2022

In the early 1960s, the Kentucky Draft Board declared the then-Cassius Clay exempt from the draft. Ali had to be saved for boxing. When the latter won the title and began making waves, the Feds had their own ideas. Ali would now become subject to the draft. In time, the U.S. Supreme Court commuted his jail sentence. Brown was different. His social causes were economic. He disagreed with a solely integrationist approach. The goal, instead, should be economic empowerment. Brown was a man on a mission. He built his own media empire: A newspaper column, a radio commentator, and as founder of the Negro Industrial Economic Union, one dedicated to creating black-owned businesses. Brown was dismayed that Cleveland, as in most Northern cities, was residentially segregated. He did not, however, look at the

city’s East Side as a ghetto. Instead, he saw a gold mine of economic opportunity. Back on the field, Brown remained unstoppable. In 1964, the Browns won their first NFL title in 12 years, shutting out the favored Baltimore Colts, 27-0. That winter, Brown ventured into movies, starring in Rio Conchos. On the set, he was introduced to Elvis Presley, who was filming his own Western. As with Presley, Brown was bitten by the movie bug. A new career beckoned. In 1965, Brown had another stellar year. Would it ever end? Indeed, it would. In the off-season, Brown co-starred with Lee Marvin in The Dirty Dozen. As training camp approached, Browns management was anxious. Was Brown coming to camp? In London, where filming took place, Brown

JIM BROWN from page 4B shocked the sports world by announcing his retirement. It made sense. Brown would retire at the top of his game. No one would see him as an aging running back, getting pummeled by younger and stronger linebackers. The only memories would be as Brown dominating. Plus, the toll of high school, college and pro ball took their price. Brown’s first wife recalled him tossing and turning at night, trying to find the perfect place to sleep, amidst the scars and welts his body had sustained. The NFL in Brown’s day was a dirty league: The pile ups saw players kicking (even in the mid-section), biting, spitting, clawing and in general, getting in all the low blows they could as the whistle blew. And no one was targeted more than Jim Brown. The Dirty Dozen was a promising start to Brown’s movie career. Critics hailed Brown in the language of the day as the “Negro Clark Gable.” By the early 1970s, “blaxploitation” films became popular. Brown’s niche was the “Slaughter” (no first name) character in such films as Slaughter and Slaughter’s Big Rip-Off. Brown had a string of popular movies, including Ice Station Zebra (1968), Kenner (1969), El Condor (1970) and Three The Hard Way (1974.) A biographer hailed him as the silver screen’s “first black action star.” Brown continued acting into the 1970s

The Smoke Show cocktail draws guests in for a soothing and almost medicinal experience. “In a classic Penicillin cocktail, peaty scotch is the base of the cocktail, along with ginger, honey, lemon and a smoky scotch floated on top so you get the highlands

and the lowlands,” Chedd said. “Publicans’ Smoke Show cocktail is my homage to the Penicillin; we use rye whiskey as the base and mezcal as the float.” The use of scotch whiskey in this creation showcases how scotch can be used in cocktails, and not just neat or on the rocks. Peated scotch is a subcategory of whiskey that seduces the nostrils and appeals to the senses with its intense, smoky flavor,

imparted by the use of peat soil in the germination process of the barley. Rye whiskey is similar to bourbon, but tends to be more fruity or spicy than a bourbon, which is noticeably sweeter and fuller bodied. Mezcal is a distilled alcohol made from the agave plant found in Oaxaca, Mexico. It has a strong smoky flavor. Chedd first sets a pinch of cherry wood chips on fire and then quickly dampens the wood so that it begins to smoke, just as you would prepare wood chips for cooking. He turns the cocktail glass upside down atop the smoking wood to capture the smoky essence

inside the glass which will next cradle the cocktail. Chedd works the spicy rye whiskey, fresh lemon, sage-honey syrup (infused simple syrup), ginger demerara (unrefined cane sugar) syrup, and then tops with a little bit of mezcal just to give it a distinct aromatic smokiness. “I love the earthy, spicy richness that you get from the whole ginger,” Chedd said. “I chop it up and throw it in the blender for a two-to-one rich, strained syrup.”

This cocktail is smoky and citrusy. It’s a multi-sensory experience for sure. You can smell it before you taste it and it feels warm and soothing as you drink it down. “If you go to any true cocktail bar and order a Penicillin cocktail, they will know exactly what you are talking about,” Chedd said. Chedd has been the bar manager at Publicans for two years. He was previously at a bar in Huntington that has since closed. He has been a bartender for more than 12 years. Publicans’ cocktail menu is Chedd’s own curation. It changes seasonally, but he keeps several tried and true cocktails that are traditional at the historic taproom. In addition to bottled, tap and craft beer offerings and wine, some of the other popular concoctions at Publicans include: Matcha Me Crazy: Matcha cordial, sochu, lemongrass and citrus ($16) Playa de Sol: Mezcal, Cointreau, yellow Chartreuse and citrus ($15) Pubs Express: Four Five espresso, vanilla vodka, Kahlua, Bailey’s and Licor 43 ($14)

Wanda: Pink Whitney vodka, lemon, pomegranate, blood orange foam ($15) Jazz Hands: Vodka, jasmine tea syrup, raspberry, citrus and Prosecco ($14) Some of the Manhasset favorites include: Red Oak: Strawberry jalapeno-infused tequila, citrus, dry Curacao and agave ($14) The J-Mon: Casamigos, three muddled limes, a splash of soda and lime juice ($16) Enlightenment: London-syle dry gin, lemongrass, Chartreuse and toasted rosemary ($15) Black Sails: Winter spiced apple cordial and spiced rum ($16) Publicans on Plandome Road serves up some fantastic comfort foods and terrific atmosphere, whether or not you partake in alcohol.

Leeds Pond Preserve

You get so much more than scenery and fresh air when you take a hike at Leeds Pond Preserve. Leeds Pond is named after Warner M. Leeds who owned the pond from 1906 until his death in 1925. The 36-acre preserve includes the Science Museum of Long Island, a pond, marine edge, stream, woodlands and meadows. It offers a wide diversity of plant and animal life, and serves as a springboard for the detailed investigation of local ecological habitats. The preserve is located at 1526 N. Plandome Rd. in Manhasset. Grounds hours are typically 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Check the museum’s website for special guided hikes, tours and night programs.

Christ Church Manhasset

After lunch, make your way east on the boulevard to Christ Church Manhasset, the final resting place of Dr. James Cogswell, a Revolutionary War patriot and surgeon who served on George Washington’s staff. Grafted from the plaque at the cemetery, it is known that Cogswell was a philanthropist and was one of the originators of the New York Dispensary System of the Society for the Relief of Distressed Debtors. He was also involved with the first African school, established in New York City in 1787 as a one-room schoolhouse with 40 students. It was once located at 137 Mulberry St. but since razed for apartment buildings. He was a devoted Christian. He was a member of the

Manumission Society, founded by John Jay, which battled the slave trade, working toward emancipation of slaves in New York. The organization was instrumental in passing a law in New York which prohibited the sale of slaves in 1785. Cogswell was born in Canterbury, CT, to James and Alice Fitch Cogswell, on July 31, 1746. He studied medicine and began his practice in Preston, CT. He served as an army surgeon at Cambridge, MA during the Battle of Bunker Hill. In August of 1776, he married Elizabeth Davenport and they settled in Stamford, CT, raising one child, Alice. As the war progressed, Cogswell was called upon again to aid the patriot cause. He was assigned as

regimental surgeon to General Gold Selleck Sillman, who was on duty in New York with the Connecticut militia. He took his younger brother, Mason, on as his assistant. His wife died in 1779. When the war ended, Cogswell returned home and married Abigail Lloyd, with whom he had four children. They moved to New York, where Cogswell continued his medical practice and maintained an apothecary business. Cogswell contracted yellow fever while attending to a sickened patient; he died on Nov. 22, 1792. Christ Church Manhasset Historic Cemetery is located at Plandome Road and Northern Boulevard.

An ‘Object’-ive Look At History Center Manhasset Public Library collection chronicles area’s rich past Manhasset Public Library (MPL) archivist Antonia S. Mattheou recently showed off some of the items she has archived and classified in the History Center.

rained as an historian and archivist at NYU, Mattheou was uniquely qualified when Director Maggie Gough contacted her in 2015 to bring order out of a mass of unorganized books and materials of historical value. Mattheou has been employed by the Town of Huntington as its archivist since 1993, and works most Saturdays at MPL. She wrote the following mission statement for the History Center: “The Manhasset Public Library collects, preserves and provides access to records related to the history of Manhasset since the area was first settled on December 13, 1643. Records kept in the History Center should be at least 10 years old and should contain historical information about Manhasset’s past—information that is essential when charting current and future activities. “Material housed in the History Center should be used by individuals engaged in historical research and education. For a detailed description of the records, see the finding aid for each record group.” Visit www.manhassetlibrary.org to learn more. Research is by appointment only. Contact Gough at 516-627-2300, ext. 348 for more information. Recalling that day when she first looked over the MPL records, Mattheou said, “I came in and looked at everything and immediately knew it was a wonderful collection that they had, but it needed a little work.” She filed a report recommending the library hire an archivist or even an intern with historical experience to process the collection. “Maggie says to me,’Well I thought you were going to take over (laughs).’ And I said, ‘Okay, I will come and process the collection, however long it takes. Seven years later, I’m still here,” Mattheou said. She organized the book cabinets by subject—an entire section is devoted to Manhasset-based authors. Others contain the entire yearbook collections from the Manhasset High School and Middle School, as well as St. Mary’s High School.

Some unique primary records and rare books make the collection an historian’s delight. Alumni who now live out of town, she noted, occasionally contact the MPL and Mattheou will digitize and email their yearbook photos. After an exhibit she organized about the area’s mansions that included blueprints, she was contacted by a pair of City University of New York professors who visited to make copies of the plans to use as instructional material in their classes. “This is what makes me happy—the fact that we teach by what we have and that we provide what we exhibit,” she observed. Gloves are provided when looking at many materials because the oil from the fingers can degrade the paper. She said, “One thing about archives and historical material is that they’re very unique, one of a kind, so we need to protect them, and in order to do that everything needs to be under lock and key. Nobody borrows things from here. If you want to look at something, you need to leave your driver’s license with the librarian.” The most sought-after records, both in person and in online searches (to which Mattheou has the statistics), relate to famous children’s author Frances Eliza Hodgson Burnett, who lived in Plandome for many years and wrote her most famous book, The Secret Garden.

This is one of archivist Antonia Mattheou’s favorite objects, a memorial for Captain Charles whose steamer Seawanhaka caught fire. He guided it onto the shores of Randall’s Island. He died a day later from an infection caused by his burns. Then NYC Mayor W. R. Grace presided at the memorial, held in Sea Cliff.

A 1953 graduate of Manhasset High School, Brown earned 13 high school letters playing five sports: football, basketball, baseball, lacrosse and track and field. Held county records in rushing yards and scoring touchdowns. Won the 1952 Thorp Award as the most outstanding football player in Nassau County.

Won the 1953 Nassau County high jump with a leap of 6-3, a record that held for over a decade. Veteran coaches tell stories of Brown running back and forth between Manhasset’s baseball games and track meets, changing uniforms as he went. Administrator (2016): As a teacher, coach, sport coordinator and administrator, Jim Amen Jr. has had a brilliant career, influencing thousands of student-athletes and making his mark at every level of education. The 1961 graduate of Massapequa High School was athletic director at Levittown Division, Bethpage and Cold Spring Harbor,

before taking over at Manhasset in 2013. He retired last year. A lacrosse player, Amen won 219 games on the high school coaching level, including a state title at Bethpage. He was an assistant coach for the 1979-1981 Johns Hopkins University mens’ lacrosse national championship teams.

The Sewanhaka HS grad led his team to four consecutive unbeaten seasons and was a member of the University of Maryland’s national champion in 1959. Began coaching lacrosse at Manhasset High School in 1961. In his five years guiding the Indians, his teams went 67-5, winning the Long Island Championship from 1962-1964.

Athlete (2019): Moving with family to Manhasset in 1965, he made an immediate impact on the football and lacrosse teams— though he had never played the latter sport.

He was named the All-Nassau County goaltender and “Most Valuable Player” of the title game, allowing just 2.16 goals per game.

Also member of LIU-Post and Manhasset Halls of Fame.

John Driscoll

Athlete (2021): The Manhasset star is regarded by many people to be one of, if not the best, midfielder in Nassau high school history. “He was the best all-around high school player I’ve ever seen,” said legendary Manhasset and Cornell goalie Bob Rule. Led the Indians to county titles in 1975 and ’76, scoring four goals in each county championship game and remains the only player in Nassau history to be the two-time MVP of the county tournament.

Residents, Former Residents Share What They Love Most About Manhasset BY JENNIFER CORR jcorr@antonnews.com

The Tuesday’s Children Benefit, recognizing 20 years of service at the Plandome Country Club on April 28, was well attended by members of the community and those returning home from afar to support an organization that supports children impacted by the event on Sept. 11, 2001 and other forms of violence.

ttendees dressed up for the event and enjoyed a cocktail hour with hors d’oeuvres and wine, and then sat down for dinner while watching a ceremony honoring those who serve Tuesday’s Children. At the event, an inquiring photographer was sent by the Manhasset Press to find out what is it that keeps people either living in the community or continuing to come back for events like these.

Geralyn Cannella “[What I love most about Manhasset] is the train station and all the trees. But really I’ve been here for 32 years and what I’ve come to understand is a lot of people who grew up here come back here because it is such a close-knit community.”

Marie Dwyer Adams “I’ve been here forever. It’s the community, it’s the togetherness, it’s when something happens that people are just so loving, giving and caring. It can be a tough town. When I grew up it was a lot different. Today it’s all about the school, sports, lacrosse and training... The community is great.”

Eugene A. Petracca “[What I love most about Manhasset] is the roots. I grew up in Manhasset. I still love to live here and it’s the roots. Family, friends and connections. It’s a real community. It’s a beautiful community on the water. It’s a lovely place and a really great train line for people commuting into the city.” Herbert Mccooey Jr. “I come to an event like this and I know half the people and I’ve known them for 50 years. It’s very special to come back and see people that you’ve known for a long time.”

Ellen Snodgrass Kathy Murphy Kathy Murphy “I’m one of six. We moved to Manhasset in 1954 and it was the greatest upbringing you could possibly have as a kid. It’s a very tight-knit, supportive community. Everything about it is just really fantastic.” (Photo by Cathy Bongiorno)

Matt Sarni wn (Photos courtesy of Levitto School District)

BY JAMES ROWAN

nassauobserver@antonmediagroup.com

Matt Sarni faced an uncertain future. The three-sport MacArthur High School athlete underwent Tommy John surgery heading into his junior year of high school. It would be easy for doubt to creep into the mind of a young athlete after such an extensive surgery. But Sarni never doubted himself, he simply plotted his comeback. He focused on his recovery and dedicated himself to

SPORTS

SPONSORED BY ORLIN & COHEN

Athlete of the Month—Matt Sarni fully returning to athletics. His triumphant return has earned Sarni Anton Media Group’s Athlete of the Month. “I was extremely determined to comeback because I feel the most like myself when I pitch,” Sarni said. “Being away from pitching for almost 600 days made me realize how much I love it. This drove me to work hard everyday toward a comeback.” This year, Sarni was an impact player on MacArthur’s football, basketball and baseball teams. He also maintained a 100.76 weighted average in the class room. “Matt is a high-quality person who has the respect of his teammates and the entire coaching staff,” MacArthur baseball coach Steve Costello said. Sarni also made up his own rehab rules. To secure a spot on the football team, Sarni taught himself how to be a field goal kicker. When he was

finally able to throw a baseball again, and if no one was available to catch with him, he took a bucket of baseballs up to the MacArthur field and threw into a fence. To work on his mechanics, he would stand in front of a mirror and replicate his wind-up. On the gridiron, Sarni was automatic as a field goal kicker. He also made a game-saving tackle on a kick-off return by Mepham during a playoff game at Hofstra. In addition to football, Sarni was an All-Conference basketball player and was named Player of the Year by the Levittown Tribune. But baseball has always been where Sarni has excelled most.

A member of the varsity team since his freshman year, Sarni did not pitch his junior season but contributed enough to the team as a second baseman to be named All Conference and help the Generals reach the Nassau County semifinals. Sarni’s stat line as a senior is impressive. While playing shortstop, Matt is batting .377 with a .507 on-base percentage. He has struck out just twice in 67 plate appearances. He has 16 RBIs and 25 runs scored while going a perfect 10-for-10 in stolen bases. On the mound, the senior righthander is 4-1. In 28 innings pitched, he has a 2.00 ERA with 36 strikeouts and just four walks. He’s allowed one hit or fewer in five of his six starts. He has zero errors as a pitcher and shortstop. But Sarni’s focus is always on the team. “My current and former teammates have very high standards and expectations,” said Sarni, who will play baseball at New Paltz next year. “These coaches have helped me to become the person I am today both on and off the field.” —James Rowan is an Anton Media Group contributor.

Recycling Basics Recycling is the process of collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash and turning them into new products. Recycling can benefit your community and the environment.

Benefits of Recycling

• Reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills and incinerators • Conserves natural resources such as timber, water and minerals • Increases economic security by tapping a domestic source of materials • Prevents pollution by reducing the need to collect new raw materials • Saves energy • Supports manufacturing and conserves valuable resources • Helps create jobs in the recycling and manufacturing industries This amazing home with park-like views at 73 Papermill Rd. in Manhasset sold for $2,550,000 on May 11.

Steps to Recycling Materials

Recycling includes the three steps below, which create a continuous loop, represented by the familiar recycling symbol. Step 1: Collection and Processing There are several methods for collecting recyclables, including curbside collection, drop-off centers and deposit or refund programs. Recyclables are sent to a recovery facility to be sorted, cleaned and processed into materials that can be used in manufacturing. Recyclables are bought and sold just like raw materials would be, and prices go up and down depending on supply and demand. Step 2: Manufacturing More and more of today’s products are being manufactured with recycled content. Common household items that contain recycled materials include ewspapers, paper towels, aluminum, plastic, and glass soft drink containers, steel cans and plastic laundry detergent bottles. Recycled materials are also used in new ways such as recovered glass in asphalt to pave roads or recovered plastic in carpeting and park benches. Step 3: Purchasing New Products Made from Recycled Materials You help close the recycling loop by buying new products made from recycled materials. There are thousands of products that contain recycled content. When you go shopping, look for the following: • Products that can be easily recycled • Products that contain recycled content —Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

By Holiday Holiday Mathis Mathis HOROSCOPES INTERNATIONAL WORD FIND By HOROSCOPES INTERNATIONAL WORD FIND ARIES (March 21-April 19). In the safe terrarium of your inner world, you can Tropical holiday believe what you want about your talents and go unchallenged. This week, you’ll be asked to put your true abilities on the line for all to see, which feels risky because it is. You won’t have to rise to the occasion, though; what you have already is mighty fine.

WORD FIND Tropical holiday

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There is no such thing as a perfect group. Where people gather for a purpose, problems arise. Outsiders wouldn’t understand the specific and unusual nature of the issues your group encounters these days, but you’ll be uniquely adept at coming up with solutions, and so, your influence grows.

Solution: 19 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The world can seem fixed, like its structures and relationships will continue on indefinitely, just as you’ve always known them to be. Of course, this isn’t true. Things were different before you, and they will shift again; only, this time, you’ll be part of the change. You’ll take the implied responsibility seriously this week.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re being drawn into a vision of your future that seems ideal because the shimmer of the lovely parts blind you to the less-ideal aspects, which you’ll only notice once you get there. It will be worth the work to go anyway. So much of it will be right for you, and the rest you can make a game out of. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When fate leaves you to your own devices, you are lulled into the rhythm of your work-a-day schedule, mindlessly fulfilling various duties. But when fate pays a visit, it forces you into a new alertness. Whatever fate brings to the party this week, fate’s real gift is awareness. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your mind will be like an ancient mapmaker who sketches monsters beyond the edges of the known world. Yes, fearsome creatures may inhabit the abyss, but more likely, the life that rises to greet you will be on a scale you’ve seen before and handled just fine, too. Feel the fear and sail on anyway. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You will achieve a springiness as you keep the plot moving along this week, never stopping too long in any spot, floating from event to responsibility to conversation, all with the light touch that keeps you flexible. You actually have more control holding life loosely like this than you did when you gripped it so hard. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). To an outside observer, it would seem your day is ruled by the doctrine of absurdism, though the irrationalities work perfectly to make your life run smoothly. Perhaps the only absurdity is the notion that there is one correct way to run things in a world as colorful and varied as yours. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). As unpleasant as feelings of frustration can be, they portend good things for your future. They highlight your ambition and prevent self-delusion. They indicate that you see what’s not working and can hear the ticking clock. Your frustration will turn to curiosity this week. From there, solutions will emerge.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

Peace grows inside you. You’ll be a grounding agent for the others in your social swirl. You may not even realize the many times you bring your environment into a state of harmony and production. With your talent for empathy, it’s almost like you’re able to live many lives. Certainly, your flexibility of perspective allows for decision-making, which elevates more lives than your own. A hobby will introduce you to fun people and times. You’ll try three arrangements before you get the best fit. COPYRIGHT 2022 CREATORS.COM

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). One reason to practice acknowledging people with the fullness of your being is that you’ll start to realize that it’s enough. Your complete and tender attention for five minutes is better than hours of obligated service. You can say yes to a person without saying yes to the thing they want you to do.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your body communicates through pleasure and pain you understand well, through aches that send a vaguer message, through sensations you’re not sure how to interpret. Yet, you’ll keep trying and learning because you’re committed to building an optimal relationship with your vessel.

The secret of good defense South dealer. East-West vulnerable. NORTH ♠ Q J 10 5 3 ♥ 10 ♦84 ♣K Q J 8 2 WEST EAST ♠— ♠642 ♥A J 6 5 4 2 ♥K 9 7 3 ♦Q972 ♦ A 10 6 5 3 ♣ 10 7 3 ♣A SOUTH ♠AK987 ♥Q 8 ♦KJ ♣9 6 5 4 The bidding: South West North East 1♠ Pass 4♠ Opening lead — two of diamonds. A competent defensive pair will often transmit highly valuable information to one another through the judicious use of signals. Such signals, properly interpreted, can sometimes spell the difference between the making and breaking of a contract. Consider this deal where South’s one-spade opening was raised to four by North. East had no safe way to enter the bidding at this

point, and he passed. It was later discovered that East-West, who never bid, could have made a small slam in hearts or diamonds. West led a diamond, won by East with the ace. East then cashed the ace of clubs, on which West played the ten, and was faced with the problem of how to put West on lead in order to get a club ruff. East found the winning solution by leading a low heart. West won with the ace and returned a club, and South went down one. Had East led a diamond at trick three, hoping West had the king, South would have made the contract. It might seem that East was lucky to hit on the heart return, but actually his play was much more than a shot in the dark. In a potential ruffing situation, it is often possible to use a suitpreference signal to solve a problem. In the given case, when West played the ten of clubs on East’s ace at trick two, he was signaling that his entry card was in hearts rather than diamonds. Had West held the king of diamonds instead of the ace of hearts, he would have played the three of clubs on East’s ace instead.

North Shore Earns Top Cardiac, Stroke Rankings THE MANHASSET PRESS STAFF manhasset@antonmediagroup.com

he Sandra Atlas Bass Heart Hospital at North Shore University Hospital (NSUH) has been rated Long Island’s top-ranked hospital for cardiac surgery and coronary intervention–and among the top three programs in New York State, including No. 2 in cardiac surgery—according to a new analysis released by Healthgrades. “Healthgrades’ recognition of our exceptional cardiac and neurology programs showcases the life-saving work being done at North Shore University Hospital,” said Jon Sendach, NSUH’s executive director. “The team here is trusted both locally and regionally for the quality of the patient care delivered, the empathy in which it is given and overwhelmingly positive outcomes.” Patients treated at hospitals receiving a state ranking for cardiac surgery for the period 2018-2020 had, on average, a 51.4 percent lower risk of dying than if they were treated at hospitals that were not state ranked, according to Healthgrades data.*

In addition, patients treated at hospitals receiving a state ranking for coronary intervention between 2018-2020 have, on average, a 48.6 percent lower risk of dying than if they were treated in unranked hospitals, the data showed.* Healthgrades evaluated clinical performance using Medicare inpatient records for nearly 4,500 hospitals nationwide for its state rankings analysis, focusing on eight key specialties across a mix of chronic, urgent and planned clinical areas. “This recent outcomes data by Healthgrades for cardiac surgery at Northwell Health validates what has been demonstrated by other independent analyses, including the Society of Thoracic Surgeons, as well as the New York State Department of Health, namely that cardiac surgery at Northwell Health is consistently one of the best in the region, as well as one of the leaders in the nation,” said Alan Hartman, MD, senior vice president and executive director of cardiovascular and thoracic surgery at Northwell Health. “Being recognized among the top three in New York for cardiac surgery, coronary intervention and stroke care are great achievements that speak to North Shore

University Hospital’s ongoing commitment to high quality care. Receiving a top state ranking have much to be proud of as their deep medical expertise has built a track record of delivering positive outcomes for their patients,” said Brad Bowman, MD, chief medical officer and head of data science at Healthgrades.

Run For Katie Benefit Slated For June 5 Join Team Katie and help support the 12th annual 5K fundraiser benefiting the Katie Oppo Research Fund. With your support, we are seeking to continue to deliver on our mission to increase awareness and fund research for the prevention, treatment, and cure of Small Cell Carcinoma of the Ovary Hypercalcemic Type (SCCOHT)—a rare and life-threatening disease—as well as all forms of ovarian cancer. The run is held in memory of our beloved Katie Oppo, who passed 12 years ago from SCCOHT. The run begins at Flower Hill Village Park in Manhasset at 9 a.m. Sign up and fundraise on your own, or create a team and run with us. Sponsorships and regular tickets available for purchase. Katie Rose Oppo was born on June 19, 1991 in Queens. She graduated from Manhasset High School in 2009. Her intellectual achievements, coupled with her love of the sciences, led her to choose Johns Hopkins University. At school, Katie focused on completing the pre-med requirements in preparation for fulfilling her dream of becoming a physician. In August 2010, prior to her sophomore year at Hopkins, Katie was diagnosed with SCCOHT. At 19 years old, when your life is just beginning, can you imagine being faced with an extremely rare and life threatening disease? Katie was shocked by the lack

of information surrounding SCCOHT. While she endured intensive chemotherapy under the care of several outstanding physicians, Katie continued to maintain a positive outlook and counter each obstacle with dignity and grace. On April 11, 2011, after valiantly battling her illness for eight months, Katie left this world without ever giving up hope. She had a unique impact on all who were fortunate enough to have known her, as well as those who only knew her through her story. It is her wish that we shed light on this rare and life threatening disease. Your contributions will be put towards fulfilling Katie’s dream.

St. Mary’s Celebrates Championship Season E arlier this year, St. Mary’s High School Office of Athletics, together with the Office of Alumni Relations, welcomed back the 2001-2002 boys basketball team to celebrate the 20th anniversary of winning the New York State Federation Class B championship. The event was the brainchild of the Alumni Board members, who envisioned recognizing the achievement of the win for the Gaels. Appropriately positioned to take place at halftime of the home game against Holy Trinity that evening, the former teammates were called to center court by Athletic Director Pat Welsh. A moment of silence was requested to remember and honor Devon Jarvis, a 2003 alumnus and fellow player who died suddenly on October 24, 2010. Devon loved St. Mary’s and all things basketball. Honoring his memory during this special event, his teammates surely felt his presence and know he roots for the Gaels with God. After the game, current players and their families were invited to the reception held for the former team members.

Flashback

That March of 2002, the Gaels beat NYC champs Wings Academy 67-51 in the Federation semifinal and upended highly favored public high school champions Amityville 65-61 in the final at the Glens Falls Civic Center. St Mary’s Mamadou Diakhate was the tourney MVP and

teammate Keith Tilley (16 points and 13 rebounds in the title game) was part of the All-Tournament squad. The Gaels had won their fifth straight Nassau-Suffolk Catholic High School Athletic Association (CHSAA) title that season, but had not been expected to make a deep postseason run after graduating four Division I-bound players the year before. They avenged a loss in the CHSAA state Class A final the year before by beating Iona Prep in the Class B final to advance to the Federation tourney, which brings together the private, public, New York City and parochial champions. Against three-time state public champ Amityville, the Gaels kept the game close, holding state Player of the Year and 6-10 center Jason Frazer (20 rebounds, nine blocked shots) to a season-low eight points. Diakhate (17 points) scored on a layup at the buzzer to send the game into overtime. He scored six in extra time to secure the win. LaJohn McFadden hit a key 3-pointer in OT. The Gaels finished 25-2 and allowed just 46.6 points per game over the seven playoff games. Tim Cluess coached that championship team, some of whose members had won the state Catholic and Federation titles two years before. —Courtesy of the St. Mary’s Office of Communications with additional reporting by Frank Rizzo.

The joke is Cornell Cooperative told me, ‘Buy it now so that it ages.’ ” Dalimonte said that North Hempstead Grants Administrator Tom Devaney will look into funding opportunities, and she will also reach out to Senator Charles Schumer for potential federal aid. Reestablishing a thriving oyster population and cleaning the bay will have economic consequences, she said. “This is an overwhelmingly positive thing,” Dalimonte concluded. “I am very excited that this project is actually happening. We’re not allowed

to take shellfish out of Manhasset Bay, but putting them in makes sense for the Bay’s continued restoration and improvement,” said Manhasset Bay Protection Committee Executive Director Sarah Deonarine in a statement to the Press. The Committee is active in helping with clean up efforts in the bay. According to its website, “...viruses as well as bacteria and other disease-causing organisms, cumulatively referred to as ‘pathogens,’ are never far from the minds of Committee members. That’s because Manhasset Bay is considered ‘impaired’ due to pathogen pollution; basically that means that Manhasset Bay can’t be used for what it should be used for due to germs.”
