Westbury, Hicksville Events Commemorate Juneteenth

TOP STORY

Residents celebrate with cultural activities and a three-day weekend for some

JANET BURNS jburns@antonmediagroup.com

elebrations and cultural events marked Juneteenth 2022 across Nassau County, including spacious outdoor gatherings that drew hundreds of families to Hicksville LIRR and Eisenhower Park. The second annual Juneteenth Festival by Black Legacy Partners, LLC took place in a large paved lot near the Hicksville train station, fronted by a sunny patch of West Barclay street that was blocked off for pedestrian traffic by Oyster Bay Police and Safety services. Hundreds of attendees of all ages strolled among dozens of stalls featuring local vendors and community groups across the pavement, framed by a groove-filled bandshell and popular food trucks on either side. Spencer Casseus, Vice President of Partnerships and Events for Black Legacy Partners, told Anton Media Group that Juneteenth is “a very important holiday, especially the history, the stories, and the blood, sweat, and tears that have been shed for this particular day to happen.” “It’s extremely important that we bring a festival like this to Hicksville,” he said. “We’re not only bringing Black culture to Hicksville but also introducing a new community to what Juneteenth is all about.” Casseus added, “This day would not have happened without the support of our sponsors, like TD Bank, Mattress Firm, National Grid, and Fidelis Care, who stepped up and showed up to show their commitment to diversity on Long Island.” A few miles away, another large day-of Juneteenth event also sent music wafting on the breeze from Eisenhower Park’s Harry Chapin Lakeside Theatre, where Nassau County Legislature Minority Leader Kevan M. Abrahams and Legislators Siela A. Bynoe and Carrié Solages partnered with the Joysetta & Julius Pearse African American Museum of Nassau County, the Nassau Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., the Nassau County Guardians Association, Inc., and dozens of local vendors and community groups for ‘Juneteenth - A Celebration of Freedom.’ Performers included Everton Bailey and the Instrumental Sounds of Praise and the

Former NYC Police Officer Sentenced to Up to Four Years in Prison for Firing Weapon in Long Beach David Afanador was drinking on a beach and fired several shots into the ocean

assau County District Attorney Anne T. Donnelly announced that a former New York City Police Officer was sentenced today to up to four years in prison for firing several shots into the ocean in Long Beach, from a weapon that was in his possession illegally, in March 2021. David Afanador, 41, of Long Beach, pleaded guilty before Judge Robert Bogle on March 22, 2022, to a charge of Criminal Possession of a Firearm (an E felony). The defendant was sentenced today to 1 1/3 – 4 years in prison. “This defendant knew he could not legally possess a firearm, but still made the decision to drink with friends on a beach and recklessly fire a loaded gun several times into the ocean,” said DA Donnelly. “Afanador’s behavior was foolish, dangerous, and illegal. We hope that his sentence sends a message to anyone thinking about illegally discharging a weapon in Nassau County in the name of fun.” DA Donnelly said that on March 21, 2021, Long Beach Police Department Officers responded to a call of several shots fired near Franklin Boulevard and Ocean Beach

Park. When police arrived, they saw the defendant, standing with three other people, holding an open can of spiked seltzer with a 9mm Beretta pistol in his holster and two loaded magazines. When the defendant was asked to produce identification, Afanador handed officers a NYPD Officer Identification card and a driver’s license. Afanador’s NYPD ID card was clearly marked “No Firearms.” Seven spent 9mm shell casings were recovered from the sand around Afanador. Afanador was arrested by LBPD on March 21, 2021. A co-defendant in the case, Jennifer Sonnick, of Long Beach, was charged with Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree (a C violent felony) and Prohibited Use of a Weapon (an A misdemeanor). Sonnick’s case is pending. The case was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorneys Tova Simpson and Brian Rodriguez of the Narcotics, Firearms, and Gangs Bureau. The defendant is represented by Edward Sapone, Esq. — Submitted by the Office of the District Attorney of Nassau County

New Hyde Park Preengineering Students Visit Harvard To Test Experiment Sewanhaka Central High School District’s preengineering students traveled to a laboratory at the Anderson Research Group at Harvard University to test equipment they’ll be sending aloft on a NASA weather balloon in spring 2023. As one of the winning teams selected as part of the Future Engineers/ NASA TechRise Student Challenge, they’ll be able to develop and analyze results from an experiment of their own design. Their experiment, “Atmospheric Measurement of Noxious Gasses Using Sensors (‘A.M.O.N.G.U.S.’)” is designed to supplement research concerning the effect of greenhouse gases on climate change. The students created an instrumentation package that includes various sensors to measure ozone, volatile organic compounds, carbon dioxide and particulates in the atmosphere. They also plan to record video

and photographs during flight. The laboratory visit allowed the students to expose their equipment to conditions expected at 70,000 feet using Harvard’s large environmental test chamber. With the guidance of Harvard engineers, the students confirmed the viability of their experiment, collected data for instrument calibration and will now begin final preparations in anticipation of the 2023 launch. Through the Future Engineers/NASA TechRise Student Challenge, the preengineering students gained real-world STEM experience in an initiative designed to attract, engage and prepare future science, engineering and mathematics students. This is the inaugural year of the challenge, which attracted over 600 entries from across the United States. Sewanhaka was one of only 57 teams selected.

nything born in a kitchen is always a good thing. Take, for example, a comforting homecooked meal, a delectable slice of homemade bread hot from the oven or even a fabulous idea for something new and unrelated to anything that came out of the pantry. In the case of Barbara Herel, the kitchen was the birthplace of her original show and later podcast, Every Family’s Got One. Every Family’s Got One, or EFGO, was an idea conceived by Herel after the close of a show she had done with a New York City producing team several years ago. She had just come off the show, Listen to Your Mother, in which she performed and assisted in curating the show. Listen to Your Mother enabled Herel, a stand-up improvisational comedian, to find her roots. “I loved being part of something that allowed me to write and be part of something that seemed relatable,” she explained. “Once that show ended, I wanted to figure out how I could start my own show in my own community. I began to think about family experiences. I come from a family with a lot of personality, and I wondered how I could create something that would get people talking. Basically, the idea just came to me in my kitchen. It felt right.” In 2018, the first production of Every Family’s Got One launched. The traveling troupe found a stage in Huntington as well as the stage at My Father’s Place in Roslyn. When the pandemic hit, Herel still wanted to get stories out to her audience, so she started a podcast with the same name. EFGO is currently in its third year. “We have long-time and first-time storytellers in our cast. We do a writer’s workshop to help cast members

refine their stories,” she said. “We have MOTH and RISK! storytellers in the show as well. They are basically just telling a story about their personal experiences. The hope is that someone in the audience will relate to it. And by relating to it, this will get people talking and off their phones.” The importance of socializing in a world where most folks live on electronic devices helps to connect members of society and helps to ward off the feeling of isolation. “It’s also about how people define their own ‘family’,” Herel pointed out. “Is it a group of friends? Is it the people with whom you work? Could ‘family’ be your pets? These are truly passionate stories that we pass down through generations and we want to feel like we’re related to those stories.” MOTH Storytelling is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the art of storytelling, while RISK! Storytellers tell true stories that they never thought they would share with the public. EFGO brings true family stories from storytellers that are heartwarming, at times hilarious, cringe-worthy and even unexpected. Herel always wanted to collaborate and work with her best friend of 45 years, Dawn Nagle, a local artist. Nagle, who was born in New York and lived in Colorado for more than a decade, curated art shows in Denver. When she moved back to New York, she focused on her own artwork. “I was part of an exhibition at the Southampton Community Center and it got me thinking about how much I love to draw people in with events,” Nagle said. “I wanted to get artists together and give them a sense of community. When I saw the beautiful stage at SHCC with a gallery for artwork, I couldn’t wait to talk to Barbara about it. A band was playing in the background, and I thought that it would have been a great idea if we had collaborated to get people in to see both

the band and the artists at the gallery.” Dawn discussed the idea of combining both the art community with Barbara’s show. The idea took off from there. Nagle did a call for artists for the show and 17 local artists from as far away as New York City responded. Two college students and two high school students were included in the group because Dawn wanted to give them a positive experience and be involved with the more seasoned artists who would be part of the exhibition. “We have a dynamic, diverse group of local talent,” Nagle said. “They are getting to know each other through social media and are becoming a ‘family’ of sorts. This is the thing that I missed most about curating shows: the sense of camaraderie. It’s my hope that I can keep this group together and build upon it. I would also like to do something online with this group. It’s so important to give back to the community.” Herel and Nagle found great joy in the planning stages of the event. According to Herel, “What I love most about our show is finding the best stories. When you get up on stage and tell a story about your family, it’s relatable. We help the cast with their performance through coaching, which enables them to really connect with the audience. We’ve allowed people to use notes so they aren’t stressed about memorizing lines. It’s about a really great story, and we have those great stories in this show.” Some topics range from romantic stories that ended hilariously in a massage parlor to the nightmare of a Thanksgiving dinner gone bad to family secrets that were never shared publicly. “We have heartwarming stories in EFGO and we have people who have found their voice,” Herel said. “These are well-crafted stories that I absolutely love because it gets people to talk to each other and relate to the performers with their own experiences.

And then we have the artwork, which is stunning. I can’t find another word for it, because we have such diverse artists who will have their work in the gallery. And I am having so much fun planning this with Dawn.” The idea of combining both the art in the gallery and the storytelling was to build an art community that supported each other as well as connecting people together in a relatable and heartwarming way. The eventual plan for both Herel and Nagel is to find a home for their collaborative show. As Herel observed, “We’re trying to get the momentum going so people know about the show. The fun of it is just putting it out there. Dawn is so connected to people in the art world, and I’m so grateful for the experience. People love to perform. I love bringing this show to the community.” The event will be held on June 25 at the Southampton Community Center. The gallery will open with a reception from 4 pm to 8 p.m. that will include hors-d’oeuvres and beverages with a meet-andgreet of 17 accomplished, dynamic New York artists and more than 65 exceptional pieces of art. The exhibition, “Live and In Person: A Celebration of NY Artists” will run from June 25 through July 17. At 7 p.m., ticketholders will be invited to meet with artists and cast members in the gallery with light snacks and drinks. Every Family’s Got One will begin at 8 p.m. and will run for approximately 90 minutes. There will also be raffles for two giveaways during the event.

Guidance Center Hosts 25th Annual Krevat Cup Event honoring founder Jeff Krevat raises $150,000 to support children’s mental health

he North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center, the pre-eminent not-for-profit children’s mental health agency on Long Island, celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Jonathan Krevat Memorial Golf & Tennis Classic on June 6, at one of Nassau County’s finest courses, the elegant Engineers Country Club in Roslyn Harbor. The event raised $150,000 to support the Guidance Center’s work to bring hope and healing to children and families dealing with mental health or substance use challenges. More than $25,000 in additional funds were raised for the Guidance Center’s Douglas S. Feldman Suicide Prevention Project, another life-saving initiative that launched in September 2020. This year, the event honored Jeff Krevat, a longtime supporter of the Guidance Center and founder of the Krevat Cup, which is named in honor of his brother. “The mission of the Guidance Center is more important than ever before, with children and teens suffering from serious mental health challenges,” former board member Krevat said. “I am grateful to my friends and family for coming out to honor my brother’s legacy and support an organization that makes a real difference for the kids in our community.”

This year’s guest speaker was Rachel Priest, a mental health professional who was a Guidance Center client in her teen years. She told the audience, “The life-affirming

care I received from the Guidance Center saved my life. I was able to accomplish wonderful things over the years both socially and academically” because of the dedication, skills and compassion of her

Guidance Center therapists. “Knowing that the care I received over 20 years ago is still available and expanding lets me know that the Guidance Center is still changing lives every day.” Once again, the co-chairs for this year’s Krevat Cup were board members Michael Mondiello, Dan Oliver, Michael Schnepper and Troy Slade. In addition, Dan Donnelly served as the event’s emcee and auctioneer extraordinaire. “It’s all about the kids,” said Donnelly, a longtime supporter of the Guidance Center, as well as a previous Krevat Cup honoree and a close friend of Jeff Krevat’s. “I consider it a privilege to be here today to help raise money to support the incredible work that truly makes a difference in the lives of children and their families.” The Guidance Center is grateful to the Krevat Cup’s sponsors: Susan and Jeff Krevat, Americana Manhasset, Aon Reinsurance Solutions, Dan Donnelly, PSEG Long Island, Bahnik Foundation, Susan and Peter Braverman, Klipper Family Foundation, City National Rochdale, The Levine Group Inc., Newmark and Rivkin Radler LLP. —Submitted by the North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center

LETTER TO THE EDITOR PROBLEM GAMBLING AND MENTAL HEALTH Mental health is a vital topic in all reaches of Long Island right now. In the face of national tragedy and nearly ongoing bad news, for many, maintaining their mental wellness can be a daily challenge. As a form of escape or coping, many turn to gambling to overcome mental health struggles. Now readily available on a mobile device, gambling opportunities are seemingly endless. More than 800,000 New Yorkers have

experienced a gambling problem in the past year. The fallout can include sleep issues, strain on relationships with loved ones, financial problems and poor work performance. People who struggle with problem gambling are also at a higher risk for other mental health struggles. Gambling disorder often occurs with anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. On top of that, gambling disorder has the highest suicide rate

among all addictions. Nearly 50 percent of people struggling with gambling disorder have thoughts of suicide (Moghaddam, et al, 2014). And one in five has attempted and/or died by suicide (Petry, 2000). If you or someone you love is exhibiting warning signs such as preoccupation with gambling; feeling stressed or anxious when not gambling; low work performance or absence due to gambling; or lying to family and

friends about how much money and time is spent on gambling, it’s time to reach out to the Long Island Problem Gambling Resource Center.

This includes Section 5339 Bus and Bus Facilities $546 million; Section 5339(c) Low or No Emissions $1.1 billion; Transit Oriented Development Planning $13 million; and Pilot Program for Innovative Coordinated Access Mobility $4.6 million. Nassau County needs to convince the MTA to apply for grants under various national competitive grant programs that can benefit LIRR commuters. This includes Section 5337 State of Good Repair Replacement $300 million and Capital Investment New Starts or Core Capacity grants $3.8 billion. The Federal Highway Administration has funding under several programs including Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ), Surface Transportation Program (STP) and others which can be flexed or transferred to FTA can also finance capital projects. Nassau County can also apply for capital grants from the state Department of Transportation to assist in funding. Albany also provides State Transportation Operating Assistance (STOA).

The Art Of The Check-In Many relationship therapists encourage the couples they work with to have weekly check-ins with one another. These check-ins are a time in which partners can discuss anything on their minds, connect with one another and focus on the status and strength of their partnership. This need not be a serious conversation, prefaced by a “we need to talk” opener. Rather, it can be incorporated into a date night and may even become one of your rituals of connection. The goal is for you and your partner to have a discussion in which you reflect on your relationship, openly and honestly share your feelings and assess progress over time. Below are some tips to help make your check-ins productive, while still keeping them light and enjoyable. Focus On Growth/Finding Solutions While it is important to bring up any issues that may be of concern, you don’t want your weekly check-ins to devolve into sessions

Bill Payne’s Long And Winding Road With Little Feat BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

ill Payne is a name that may not be readily recognizable, but the argument can be made that most people have heard the native Texan’s piano/keyboardist contributions whether they realized it or not. In addition to co-founding Little Feat back in 1969, Payne has a hefty amount of guest appearances on hundreds of recordings for myriad artists including Bonnie Raitt, The Doobie Brothers, Jackson Browne, Emmylou Harris, Pink Floyd, Bob Seger and Shelby Lynne.

Bill Payne (Photo by Bryan Ledgard/ CC BY 2.0)

Considered by many to be one of the greatest living American rock and blues pianists, Payne calls Montana home when he’s not out on the road playing with Little Feat. With pandemic numbers plummeting and live music coming back to some sense of normalcy, the 73-yearold musician has been playing before fans since June 2021. The coronavirus not only forced Payne to re-adjust and learn how to play virtually with others, but also do it while welcoming a pair of new members to the band—guitarist Scott Sharrard and drummer Tony Leone. “I learned how to record at my home, which is ridiculous,” Payne said. “It’s something I didn’t know how to do before. I sort of took each challenge as it were and started getting the buzz out of my system here in Montana. I just took the challenges one at a time and went down the list one at a time. I [recorded virtually] not only with Little Feat but with the Doobie Brothers. We did some online things together as well. That defined a lot of time. It took a little while for me to learn the curve of how to record, but once [I got past that], it was solid and great way to do things.” With Sharrard welcomed into the Feat Fold in October 2019 and Leone coming aboard in September 2020, Payne views it as the price of keeping a group going that was founded back in 1969 along with Roy Estrada, Lowell George and Richie Hayward. Over the band’s five-decadeplus existence, major personnel changes have been a Little Feat constant, ranging from George’s departure in 1979 and the recruitment of former Pure Prairie League vocalist Craig Fuller to front the reunited band in 1987 to having Shaun Murphy take the baton from Fuller in 1993 until her departure in 2009. And while there could be considerable concern over fan reactions, Payne looks at it as normal evolution

Little Feat circa 1975. Bill Payne is second from left. (Public domain) that doesn’t become a concern as long as a group stays faithful to its spirit. “Every inch of the way—when we went from a group of four people which was Roy Estrada, Lowell George, Richie Hayward and myself—and then expanded it on Dixie Chicken to Paul Barrere, Kenny Gradney and Sam Clayton—people wanted to know what that was,” he explained. “The band from the get-go was designed by Lowell and myself to be expandable. We just wanted to have a vehicle of expression that would allow for whatever we needed at the time to support the music. It was a pretty simple proposition. It’s tougher to sometimes pull off because there’s a certain balance to it with fans. Fans, like all of us, want continuity. When you think of continuity and a line-up of songs—when we did Let It Roll—Lowell wasn’t there [so fans might have been asking] what is that? My response was, ‘You tell me. Does it resonate with you or not? If you say, ‘Oh my God, it sounds like Little Feat. Thanks for putting it back together,’ then you know you’re on the right track.” Up until recently, Little Feat’s last tour

leg was dubbed “Little Feat By Request,” which featured fans filing different song requests (“that was quite a challenge because we hadn’t played a lot of those songs in a long time”), The current pivot is an anniversary tour celebrating the 1978 live outing Waiting For Columbus, in which the band plays the double-album’s 17-song track listing, an accomplishment that has been well received by fans. The path Newman got Payne started out has served him well, both in and out of Little Feat. It’s not only been a North Star for his musical development, but helped him in the hundreds of recording sessions he’s been asked to be a part of. “The journey has been really interesting, personally and certainly with Little Feat,” he said. “But I’ve always been able to play with other bands and it always gave me a loose attitude about what makes up a band. Certain people go to the nth degree and everyone has got an equal voice. I don’t think an equal voice is what it’s all about.” Visit www.longislandweekly.com to read a longer version of this story.

Acclaimed Sculptor Seward Johnson On Display Through Summer

“Cloud Watching” by Seward Johnson Photo by Matt Yao

ld Westbury Gardens announced the return of an art exhibition featuring the work of internationally renowned sculptor Seward Johnson. The exhibit features three of the artist’s most popular series: “Celebrating the Familiar,” “Beyond the Frame” and “Icons,” including additional displays of the artist’s painted trays, maquettes of artwork never realized in bronze and choice works by his friend and colleague, artist Herk van Tongeren. On display throughout historic Westbury House and the magnificent gardens through Sept. 5, the exhibit features 35 individual pieces focusing on the sculptural commentary of day-to-day life and Johnson’s love of nature and French impressionism. New to the exhibition is a selection from the artist’s “Icon” series, which explores familiar images portrayed in a different light, as well as the debut of a never-before-seen composition. The sculptures included

from “Beyond the Frame” bring paintings by Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Vincent Van Gogh to life in three dimensions. The exhibition contains six sculptures from this body of work. The addition of a sculpture from the “Icon” series shows the infamous portrait of Mona Lisa in a much different scenario from the familiar painting. The effect will create an immersive experience in Westbury House and the gardens, inviting the viewer to step beyond the frame into the rich world of each painting. “Celebrating the Familiar” engages the viewer through more hyper-realistic figures, calling attention to the small pleasures and moments in daily tasks and activities. Installations portray individuals involved in various activities amid the gardens, from fishing in the pond to lazily watching clouds go by. Prior to becoming a wellknown sculptor, Johnson was a painter who painted primarily on canvas with acrylics. Once his

career as a sculptor flourished, his painting projects subsided— except for one unique format: painted trays. Johnson began to collect trays from antique shops on which to paint his homey, intimate scenes. “These tray paintings are snapshots of his view of life,” said Program Officer Lynn DeClemente Losavio. Each of the paintings hung in the House allow a rare window through Johnson’s eyes, featuring his sculptures and views at Ground For Sculpture. A display of Johnson’s unrealized maquettes or studies, recently cast in plaster are also at Westbury House. “These are some of my favorite works,” said DeClemente Losavio. “They are his truest ideas that were never further developed, and so important to preserve as much as possible in this raw form.” A small selection of work from artist Herk van Tongeren, friend and colleague to Johnson, are also featured. Van Tongeren helped establish the Johnson Atelier Technical

Institute of Sculpture and its master apprentice system as President and Executive Director. An architect at heart, his work predominantly consists of three-dimensional, geometrical objects positioned within a stage-like setting, In July, Composer and Jazz Vibraphonist Christian Tamburr will bring his “Sounds For Sculpture” to the Barn for one night only. Tamburr was so influenced by Seward Johnson and his sculptures that he created original compositions inspired by ten of the sculptures. An all day music workshop for students at the nearby school will emphasize art influencing art, music influencing art, and how the sculptures chosen inspire their own stories. The Seward Johnson exhibit is one of the many programs coordinated by Old Westbury Gardens and hosted at its beautifully manicured 200-acre gardens and historic Charles II-style mansion.

About The Artist

usanne Corbelletta is a New York native and classically trained artist. She attended The Stevenson Academy of Traditional Painting in Sea Cliff, founded by Harold Stevenson, protégé and friend of Norman Rockwell. Inspired by impressionism and classical realism, she paints seeking to capture mood and atmosphere using changes in light and broken color, hoping to invoke a sense of tranquility for the viewer. Corbelletta draws inspiration from, mainly, Long Island scenery and is always captivated when watching light cast shadows as it moves over a landscape and when seeing the reflected light bounce off its surroundings. She paints en plein air, whenever possible and then completes the canvas at her studio. Corbelletta also enjoys painting portraits, the figure and still life, where she can control the lighting and composition. Her award-winning paintings are privately collected and widely exhibited. Her work has been shown at The National Gallery, the Salmagundi Art Club, Federal Hall National Museum in NYC and galleries and museums nationally. Corbelletta is most proud to be an artist for the United States Coast Guard, where she has joined the ranks of artists past, to assist in documenting the history of the Coast Guard through paintings. As a board member of The Art Guild, Corbelletta has been exposed to various artists, mediums and styles. It has given her a broader perspective of art in the community. Corbelletta is happy to be part of an organization that provides classes and workshops for adults and children, both for beginners and more advanced artists who want to broaden their skills. Presently, Corbelletta has a solo exhibit on display at Sea Cliff Village Library through the end of June. This exhibition includes 15 of her paintings. The library is located at 300 Sea Cliff Ave. in Sea Cliff. Visit www. seaclifflibrary.org for library hours and directions. Visit www.corbelletta.com to see more of Corbelletta’s work.

SAFETY

Summer Is Not Fun Spent In The Hospital Prevent unexpected trips to the emergency room

ith miles of sandy beaches and endless outdoor activities, Long Island is an ideal summer haven. But with this fun-filled season of swimming, biking, boating, BBQs and more, also come more accidents than just about any other time of year. Here are some summer safety tips to prevent the following accidents and unexpected trips to the hospital emergency room:

Drowning

In the U.S., drowning is the second leading cause of unintentional injury and death for children ages 1 to 14, after motor vehicle crashes. Be sure to supervise your children at the beach and pool even if lifeguards are present.

Burns

6B | SUMMERTIME! • JUNE 22 - 28, 2022

While minor burns can be treated at home, many people find themselves in the emergency room for severe injuries. From 2014 to 2018, fire departments went to an annual average of 8,900 homes in the U.S. for fires involving grills. Remember to never leave firepits

unattended and be sure to keep your grill clean to avoid unexpected flares. Additionally—while synonymous with summer fun—leave it to the experts to handle fireworks.

Biking

Although a pleasurable way to sneak in some health benefits, you should always wear your helmet. Helmets when bike riding reduce the risks of head injury by at least 45 percent and fatal injury by 29 percent. While you may trust yourself, you can’t trust others on the road.

Boating

According to the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), boating interests are on the rise—likely as an escape from the pandemic. However, so are boating accidents. According to the U.S. Coast Guard, in 2020 boating accidents increased by 26.3 percent from 2019. Also, in most fatalities caused by boating accidents the operator received no boating safety instruction. Make sure to follow boating requirements and cool it with the throttle. Remember, there is no way to eliminate risk, but there are ways to be mindful of your surroundings. Lastly, when taking part in summer activities, be sure to drink responsibly. —NYU Langone Hospital–Long Island

SUMMER READS

Summer Bestsellers Pack a bag complete with a snack, some sunscreen and a good book before heading to the beach. Although not necessarily new books, these books are hot this summer. In no particular order, check out some of the top sellers on Amazon.

Battle for the American Mind: Uprooting a Century of Miseducation by Pete Hegseth Bestselling author and FOX News host Pete Hegseth is back with what he says is his most important book yet: a revolutionary road map to saving our children from leftist indoctrination. Behind a smokescreen of “preparing students for the new industrial economy,” early progressives had political control in mind. America’s original schools didn’t just make kids memorize facts or learn skills; they taught them to think freely and arrive at wisdom. They assigned the classics, inspired love of God and country and raised future citizens that changed the world forever.

and heartbreaking novel that digs its claws into you and doesn’t let go, long after you’ve finished it” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author) from the bestselling author of All Your Perfects, a workaholic with a too-good-to-be-true romance can’t stop thinking about her first love. Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true.

Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens Soon to be a major motion picture—the bestselling worldwide sensation with more than 12 million copies sold, hailed by The New York Times Book Review as “a painfully beautiful first novel that is at once a murder

mystery, a coming-of-age narrative and a celebration of nature.” For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the socalled Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life—until the unthinkable happens. Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover From Colleen Hoover, the bestselling author of It Ends with Us, aheart-wrenching love story that proves attraction at first sight can be messy. When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she doesn’t think it’s love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider

themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid From the bestselling author of Daisy Jones & the Six—an entrancing and “wildly addictive journey of a reclusive Hollywood starlet” (PopSugar) as she reflects on her relentless rise to the top and the risks she took, the loves she lost, and the long-held secrets the public could never imagine. Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for

the job, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now? Reminders of Him by Colleen Hoover A troubled young mother yearns for a shot at redemption in this heartbreaking yet hopeful story from bestselling author Colleen Hoover. After serving five years in prison for a tragic mistake, Kenna Rowan returns to the town where it all went wrong, hoping to reunite with her four-year-old daughter. But the bridges Kenna burned are proving impossible to rebuild. Everyone in her daughter’s life is determined to shut Kenna out, no matter how hard she works to prove herself.

will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results. If you’re having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn’t you.

Lifesaving Grilling Tips As New Yorkers look towards nicer weather, many will be firing up their grills for the first time in months. The Firefighters Association of the State of New York (FASNY) recommends that all New Yorkers follow some basic rules and tips to avoid accidents. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), an average of 19,700 patients per year (from 2014 to 2018) went to emergency rooms because of injuries involving grills. Nearly half of the injuries were thermal burns, including burns from both fire and contact with hot objects. Grills alone were involved in an average of 8,900 home fires per year, including 3,900 structure fires and 4,900 outdoor fires. “We want all New Yorkers to enjoy the warm weather outdoors, but we also want them to be safe. Keep an eye on your grill, your kids, and stay aware of your surroundings ,” said FASNY President John P. Farrell. “We are here

to help—no matter how big or small an incident seems. Don’t hesitate to call your local fire department because a few minutes can make a big difference.” Children under age five

accounted for an average of 39 percent, of the contact-type burns per year. These burns typically occurred when someone bumped into, touched or fell on the grill, grill parts or hot coals.

Keep everyone safe by following these important tips: Propane and charcoal BBQ grills should only be used outdoors. The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and overhanging branches. Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the grill area. Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill. Never leave your grill unattended. Always make sure your gas grill lid is open before lighting it. —Firefighters Association of the State of New York (FASNY)

yster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Councilman Lou Imbroto joined with local neighbors and the town’s highway crew to commence the demolition of a long-dilapidated zombie home on Elizabeth Street in Massapequa. “Code enforcement officers have regularly visited this house based on neighborhood complaints and issued multiple violations for building code violations and lack of maintenance,” said Saladino. “Town personnel repeatedly found deplorable conditions as this property showed clear signs of neglect. Since the lending institution that owns this property ignored all warnings related to health and human safety of the building, our administration went to court to remove this eyesore from the neighborhood. Banks are on notice; we will not tolerate dangerous and unkempt properties in the Town of Oyster Bay.” This longtime eyesore was recently court-granted for demolition following multiple complaints from neighbors

related to squatters, broken windows, mold, deterioration, water infiltration and lack of maintenance. “We’re taking back neighborhoods house by house from lending institutions that let these vacant houses deteriorate and bring down the neighborhood due to a lack of maintenance,” said Councilman and Quality of Life Task Force Chairman Lou Imbroto. “The town has removed more than 25 vacant and dilapidated eyesores from local communities while paving the way for new homes and new families.” The Town Code Enforcement Bureau of the Department of Planning and Development is charged with the enforcement of all codes, rules and regulations pertaining to zoning, housing and public safety. It is expressly designed to handle requests of citizens regarding possible violations.

he Roslyn High School girls’ lacrosse team has quite a future ahead of it. Leading the way for the Lady Bulldogs is Casey Rhine, a rising junior who has already made her mark as a star in the competitive world of Long Island girls’ lacrosse. A starter for Roslyn since she was a freshman, Rhine achieved a milestone this past May when she scored her 100th career goal in a game against Bellmore JFK. One hundred career goals. And that’s only after two seasons. Indeed, the recently completed 2022 season is where Rhine emerged as Roslyn’s offensive star, scoring 18 assists and 44 points. That’s up from 33 goals in 12 games during her freshman

season. According to her coach Lauren Lopez, Rhine is now learning to dominate, taking the draw and controlling the offense from the midfield on down. Consider the other achievements Rhine has racked up in her first two years: Being named to the Adelphi All-Star squad, a participant in the National Lacrosse Classic, the National Draw Champions, the Crab Cake Champions, the Lax by The Sea Champions, and the Million Lacrosse Camp Best Camper award. Outside of Roslyn High School, Rhine has played for both Elevate LI 2024 Blue and Elevate LI 2024 Red. Rhine combines athletic excellence with top grades. Her Grade Point Average (GPA) is 93-96; 4.0. “I started playing lacrosse in third grade and have loved it since,”

Rhine said in a recent profile. “I currently play for my club, Team Elevate and I have been a Roslyn High School varsity lacrosse starter since eighth grade. I am the top leading scorer for my school team as a midfielder. I am dominant in my right hand, but also feel comfortable in my left. I also use my speed to transition up the field, have excellent ground ball skills and can get low on D. On offense, I am confident dodging and shooting. I can drive to goal and have an excellent lax IQ. I put the same drive and effort into school as I do lacrosse. I love helping others and like to mentor young kids who want to join the lacrosse community.” For Casey Rhine and her Roslyn High School teammates, the best is yet to come.

Congratulations, Casey Rhine, you’re a top student-athlete! Orlin & Cohen is proud to support our community’s best high school athletes, just as we support all athletes’ orthopedic needs.

What Nassau’s Gas Tax Holiday Means For Your Family Finally—a little bit of good news about gas prices. On Wednesday, June 1, Nassau County began a gas tax holiday that will last through the rest of the year. During that time, Nassau will not charge sales tax on any portion of the price of gas exceeding $3/gallon. In addition, New York State will cut gasoline taxes by 20 cents per gallon. All told, these tax cuts will reduce the prices you pay at the pump by approximately 28 cents per gallon. The beginning of Nassau County’s long-awaited gas tax holiday marks the culmination of a months-long advocacy campaign by the members of the Minority Caucus. Starting on March 9, we fought to secure permission from state lawmakers to have a gas tax holiday—something we accomplished when the state budget was adopted a month later. Soon after, a local gas tax holiday was approved and signed into law. Despite initial resistance from County Executive Blakeman and the Legislative Majority, we prevailed in our efforts to deliver some real relief from the sticker shock we are all experiencing at the pump. We remain disappointed, however, that County Executive Blakeman has thus far failed to deliver the maximum amount of relief allowable under state law. In fact, he could have made this gas tax holiday

much better and longer lasting for Nassau consumers by passing the Minority Caucus plan, which, at current prices, would have boosted cumulative savings to 32 cents per gallon and extended Nassau’s portion of the holiday through March of next year. Instead, he decided not to save you more money and passed a watered-down version of our plan. That is truly unfortunate, and we will continue our fight to put money where it belongs—back into the hands of consumers. As we continue to engage in these efforts, it is important to note that New York State law requires gas stations to pass tax holiday

Failure to do so constitutes illegal price gouging under the law.

WORD FIND This is a theme puzzle with the subject stated below. Find the listed words in the grid. (They may run in any direction but always in a straight line. Some letters are used more than once.) Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 9 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

Winners and losers Solution: 9 Letters

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Each person brings out a different side of you -- perhaps subtly so, but in certain cases you discover an aspect of yourself you were entirely unaware of. This compels you to keep meeting new people. Not only does it make things interesting, but each new person provides a chance to know yourself more completely. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Small acts of kindness are so easy for you, you might consider small acts of selfishness, which are going to feel strange but will improve your life, nonetheless. When people are subconsciously deciding how to treat you, they are taking their cues right from you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Although you’d like all your possessions to be useful, beautiful or both, the truth is, much of what you own comes with complex reasoning that defies category. You’ll pare down, spiff up and generally organize. By the end of the week your possessions will better represent the person you are becoming. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re sometimes hesitant to solve problems for others because a co-dependent dynamic ultimately helps no one. When everyone is working together and contributing all they can, it is safe to give generously. Make sure your care for others is counterbalanced by a strong sense of your own needs and wants. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Unseen? It will work to your advantage now. It’s easier to be productive when people don’t interrupt or insert their ideas into your work. Do amazing things under the radar while you can because you won’t get to use this invisibility cloak much longer. You’ll soon be noticed and applauded. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). With the abundant creativity flowing through you this week, you’ll delight people who are notoriously hard to please. This pays, but take care. Money that’s yours free and clear makes life easy. Money that comes with strings and contracts makes life harder. Decide your next financial move accordingly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Making a decision on data alone is like buying a house sight unseen. Everything has a feel, and you don’t know until you go there. It is also not ideal to base decisions strictly on feelings and thoughts. The success of this week’s venture will have to do with a curious mix of sentiment and fact. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you wonder why you admire someone so, the resonance has to do with qualities you share, some of which are obvious and others that lie dormant inside you. Your attractions teach you what might be awakened in you. Follow up with a move to develop skill in this direction.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

Your love and warmth are indisputable, and yet the year also brings assertive vibes. Though attentive to the needs of others, you still recognize your authority over your own focus. You live up to the responsibility to create the life that honors what’s best in you. You’ll often pause and assess your use of time. You’ll invest your energy and resources where they give you a desired return. You’ll travel in pursuit of fun and games with your team. A young person shines under your tutelage.

Solution: A bit of fun

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Insert a few long breaks somewhere in that tight agenda. As you allow yourself to follow your whims, it might feel as though you’re loafing, loitering, listless -- but there are great, if intangible, benefits to loosening up the reins on yourself and following the clues provided by your attractions, distractions and impulses.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your cosmic talent is strong discretion, which you use superbly on behalf of others and even more brilliantly for yourself. When you want people to know what you think, your words and actions will be clear. And when you don’t want them to know, they will never be able to read you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your organized mind will be a thrill to operate. In the early week you’ll set yourself up for success, and by month’s end you’ll have the prize. You’ll get your ducks in a row so you can shoot them down, gallery-style, or lead them safely to a pond, vegetarian-style, as suits your preference.

Solution: 9 Letters

FOR RELEASE WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 2022

By Steve Becker

Taking care of business North dealer. Both sides vulnerable. NORTH ♠AKQ5 ♥7 5 2 ♦Q9 ♣A Q J 9 WEST EAST ♠ 10 4 ♠76 ♥Q J 9 3 ♥ 10 8 4 ♦K843 ♦ A 10 7 6 2 ♣8 6 2 ♣ K 10 5 SOUTH ♠J9832 ♥A K 6 ♦J5 ♣7 4 3 The bidding: North East South West 1♣ Pass 1♠ Pass 3♠ Pass 4♠ Opening lead — queen of hearts. Over time, defenders who play mechanically will not do nearly as well as those who play thoughtfully. Today’s deal from a duplicate game provides a case in point. The deal was played at eight tables, and at every table the final contract was four spades by South, against which West led the queen of hearts. At seven of the tables, declarer made 10 tricks — five spades, two hearts and three clubs. Since seven declarers achieved this result, and since 10 tricks seem to be there for the taking, this would seem to be the normal outcome. But it shouldn’t be, as demon-

strated by what happened at the eighth table. First, let’s see how the play went at the other tables. South won the heart lead, cashed the A-K of spades and led a spade to the jack. Declarer then tried a club finesse, losing the queen to East’s king. At this point, the defense varied. Some Easts shifted to a diamond, and after the defenders collected two diamonds, declarer had the rest, eventually discarding the heart six on dummy’s nine of clubs. At the tables where East returned a heart, declarer similarly finished with 10 tricks. At the table where the contract failed, East found a way to give South a chance to go wrong, and it made all the difference. Here, when declarer led a club to the jack at trick five, East did not take the king. South naturally assumed that West had the king, in which case repeating the finesse was necessary and might even yield an overtrick. So declarer crossed to his hand with the heart king and led a club to the queen. This time East won, and the defenders quickly cashed a heart and two diamonds to set the contract. East’s refusal to win the first club is a play that has much to gain and little to lose. All it takes is a bit of thought and a natural reluctance to play mechanically.

Portugal Day In Mineola

he Village of Mineola held its Annual Portugal Day on Sunday June 12, 2022, culminating a weekend-long celebration of Portuguese-American festivities. The annual event had plenty of authentic Portuguese food, music, and traditional folklore dancing teams as well as a carnival held in Wilson Park on Westbury Ave. Highlights of the day included the colorful street parade down Jericho Turnpike, led by Honorary Marshall Jack Martins, a past Mineola Mayor and past NYS Senator. The floats were creative and fun as the

Portuguese Heritage Society was cooking up and handing out traditional Portuguese sausages and prosciutto right from its float! Many organizations participated in the parade such as The Portuguese Heritage Society, The Long Island Portuguese Lions Club, the Mineola Portuguese Center, Investors Bank, The Porto Soccer Club, The Farmingville Portuguese Center among others. The festivities lasted well into the evening as Portuguese pride and culture filled the streets of Mineola. — Submitted by Steven Bruck

Garden City Mayor’s Update LIRR LANDSCAPING The LIRR Third Track Contractor, 3TC, and subcontractor, Sweet Hollow Nursery, is proceeding with the approved enhanced landscaping plan at Main Avenue. The new enhanced landscaping work includes large specimen shrubs and trees in accordance with the enhanced landscaping agreement I and the Third Track Committee negotiated. Oversight of the landscaping work is headed by Trustee Bruce Chester and resident volunteers Paul Rothenbiller and Celia Peterson, landscape architect. The recently installed enhanced landscaping has provided immediate impact to Main Avenue from Tanners Pond Road to Merillon Avenue. The landscape work will continue for the next several weeks, moving eastward to Strawberry Field. WATER TANK FILLING COMPLETE Filling of the new water tank is complete, a final step in a long process to replace the one million gallon storage structure. Water quality samples were taken on June 10, 2022. H2M is awaiting those results in order to request completed works from the Nassau County Health Department. Village Administrator Ralph Suozzi expects to be fully online for the high water season. Originally constructed in 1933, the 89-year-old tank has been offline for nearly three years. It was last rehabilitated in 1992; emergency repairs were made to the tank’s roof due to leaks and holes in 2015. FIRE SAFETY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS Following up on Fire Safety Committee recommendations made in November 2021, Trustee Bruce Torino advised the Board that the Fire Chiefs have been looking very closely at the internal recommendations. While things don’t appear on the surface as moving along, they actually are, Trustee Torino said. To boost enrollment, the Department received a $21,000 donation from a firm that GCFD members met at a convention in Cleveland. The funds created a recruitment video filmed back in

Westbury Baseball: A Look Back Q A

Youth sports are the foundation of success. Can assess the Little League program in the Westbury area? There currently is not a Little League program in Westbury. As a first-year varsity head coach, this is one of the areas I am assessing as we look to build up our high school baseball program. The “Yes We Can” Community Center in New Cassel does conduct some youth baseball clinics and we are in conversations to try and do more to expose baseball to more of our youth in Westbury.

FRANK RIZZO frizzo@antonmediagroup.com

estbury varsity baseball coach Ryan Mulholland recently answered questions from the Nassau Illustrated News about the 2022 season. What were your goals and expectations for this season? And did the team meet them? Our goal was to improve and develop individual players and the program itself. We failed to win a varsity game in our last two seasons (2021 and 2019) compiling an 0-29-1 record so our collective goal was to win games and play more competitive baseball overall. We finished 7-7-1 this year and just one half game out of first place in the Countywide II division. Our expectations were met and exceeded this year.

Q A

Who were your top performers? Senior third baseman Darius Poindexter and senior catcher Carlos Luna led the team with identical .438 batting averages. Poindexter provided the punch in our lineup with six extra base hits and 16 RBI. Junior centerfielder/pitcher Ali Bolling was selected as All-League. Bolling hit .394 with 18 runs scored and a team high 19 stolen bases. He also had a 3-0 record on the mound with 31 strikeouts in 15 innings.

Honored at the Senior Recognition Game were, from left: Brandon Merino, Ronnie Oviedo, Daniel Guevara, Darius Poindexter, Randy Alvarez and Carlos Luna. (Courtesy of Athletic Director Doric Capsis)

Q A

Who would you name as your MVP as well as most improved players? Several MVP’s including the aforementioned Poindexter, Luna, and Bolling. Junior second baseman Alex Munguia also had a big season, hitting .421 with a team high 17 RBI. We had several improved players that played a big role in our overall team improvement. Junior Jonathan Ellis hit .350 and was our most versatile pitcher as he was always reliable either as a starter or in relief. He was first on the team in appearances and second in innings. Ellis was on JV last year and didn’t get a great deal of playing time. He put in a ton of hard work over the offseason to get himself ready to contribute to the team and he did in a big way.

Q A

What is the status of the jayvee squad? Are there promising players coming up? We were proud of our jayvee squad this year. They finished strong with a tie and win versus Uniondale in their last two games. I think our jayvee team is an indicator of the strength of our program as many schools dropped their jayvee programs this year, including all of the schools in the Countywide II division. We had three jayvee players that also got some playing time on varsity this year and we expect big things out of them next year: Sophomore IF/P Ryan Alvarez, freshman IF/P Abhay Patel and junior utility man Zain Sosa.

Q A

What about off-season travel leagues? Are there any in the area? I think it’s important for our guys to play as much baseball as possible and that includes summer ball. We have started a summer baseball team which will begin play in mid-June in the East Meadow Senior League. We have 12 of our jayvee and varsity players that will play. We are very excited about the opportunity for them to continue to develop their skills over the summer.

Q A

Any other thoughts or observations? I am fortunate to be the varsity baseball coach here at Westbury. I thank Director of Athletics Doric Capsis for the opportunity to lead this program into the future. I also thank former coach Todd Goodwin, who stepped down this winter after 16 seasons. He taught me a lot over the past four years I was his assistant.
