TOP STORY

“Save Our Express Trains”

Local officials and commuters are speaking out about the issues regarding the proposed train schedules JULIE PRISCO jprisco@antonmediagroup.com

he Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) has released its draft schedules of train service to Grand Central after the East Side Access Project is complete, to take effect in December 2022. Elected officials and local commuters are unhappy with the proposed changes coming to the Port Washington branch, affecting commuters and residents in Great Neck, Manhasset, Plandome and Port Washington. The problematic changes include increased commute time and elimination of peak-hour express train services. Currently, there are six trains to New York between 7:30 and 8:30 a.m; under the proposed schedule there would be only two. Splitting the train service between Penn Station and Grand Central will reduce rush hour trains to once an hour to either terminal. In addition, train rides to Penn and Grand Central are increasing by approximately 7 minutes. While officials and commuters are grateful for the East Side Access Project, which gives commuters two entry points to Manhattan, at Penn Station and Grand Central, the issues arising from this project are deemed unacceptable. On July 11, NYS Senator Anna Kaplan and NYS Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti hosted a press conference to fight to “Save Our Express Trains.” Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Jennifer DeSena, Councilmember Mariann Dalimonte, Councilmember Veronica Lurvey and Councilmember Peter J. Zuckerman attended the press conference to speak up for their respective districts. “The changes proposed allow users to use the new Grand Central Madison terminal, which is great news for people who plan on using Grand Central Madison,” said Senator Kaplan. “But it cannot be at the expense of people who still plan to travel to Penn Station. We want to ensure that our residents on this peninsula also have the service they have relied on for the last decade.” Senator Kaplan and Assemblywoman Sillitti created a survey based on the MTA information sessions, and the LIRR proposed schedule for residents and commuters, to take and provide feedback. Assemblywoman SIllitti also made information cards about the changes to pass out and inform residents of changes coming to the Port Washington Branch. “Through our outreach efforts, we were able to get more than 2,200 responses in three short weeks,” said Assemblywoman Sillitti. “And out of those 2,200 responses, an

“In a recent meeting with MTA and LIRR, Dalimonte and I made several suggestions that we believe can reduce the impact of the proposed schedule changes on the residents using the Port Washington line while maintaining the expansion of service,” said Councilmember Lurvy. “If there is one thing we need to remember, there’s always room for compromise.” “The Port Washington line is very important to residents in my district,” said Councilmember Zuckerman. “As someone who commuted into the city for many years, I understand how upsetting it can be that the previous schedule has been changed. Many of my constituents have relied on this schedule for many years and have moved to our community because of the convenience of the LIRR to New York City.” Village Mayors In a press release from the office of Senator The “Save our Express Trains” press conference was held at the Kaplan, Village of Thomaston Mayor Steven Port Washington Station.

Celebrating 55 years keeping the legacy alive

SEPTEMBER 1

The Grumman Northrop-Grumman Retiree Club was started in 1967, the parent chapter is still located on the Bethpage campus with some 1,520 retiree members on Long Island and in chapters around the country. Grumman Aerospace Corporation of Bethpage at its peak employed more than 35,000 employees leading the Long Island economy. The company helped put the first man on the moon in July of 1969 with the successful development of the LEM, Lunar Module. During World War II the company and its workforce fabricated thousands of F-series fighters for the war effort. Grumman went on to produce many high quality Navy Aircraft including the F-14 Tomcat, showcased in the movie Top Gun and the current new movie Top Gun Maverick. Today the company still produces the Navy’s E-2D Hawkeye aircraft at its facilities in Florida.

The Grumman reputation in the industry was further cemented by a top Navy official quoting that “the Grumman name on an aircraft is like “Sterling on Silver.” The GNGRC would like to see former and current employees join the retiree club as well as come out and support the club at one or all of the following upcoming events: ·September 7—GNGRC annual Picnic at Marjorie Post Park in Massapequa ·October 26—Luncheon at the Crest Hollow CC Retirees that still haven’t joined or a family member that may wish to honor a retiree and/ or a former Grumman worker may also join. The club would like to invite former and current employees to join the retiree club helping to keep that aircraft legacy alive.

James Caan: How To Play Sonny Corleone JOSEPH SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

hen James Caan died last week, he was hailed as the ultimate New Yorker: Smart, funny, tough—and decisive. He left a legacy of up to 90 films and television movies. Even at the time of his death, Caan remained active. For millions of moviegoers, Caan will always be identified with Santino (“Sonny”) Corleone, the oldest son of Don Vito Corleone and the muscle behind the all-powerful Corleone crime family as dramatized in both the novel and film version of The Godfather. Caan was a born-and-bred New Yorker. Born James Kahn in 1940 in The Bronx to parents of German-Jewish ancestry, his family made the trek to Sunnyside, Queens, where he grew up. Caan left New York for college, attending Michigan State. He came home to attend Hofstra. Caan never graduated, but his classmates included Francis Ford Coppola, who would co-write and direct The Godfather saga. Caan excelled in television and movies. His first break came in 1971 with the television production of Brian’s Song, a drama about the friendship between Brian Piccolo and Gale Sayers, both running backs for the 1966 Chicago Bears. Piccolo was a native of Massachusetts who played college football at North Carolina State. Undrafted, he tried out for and made the Chicago Bears, still coached by the legendary George Halas. Piccolo, who was white, became a roommate of Sayers, then the top halfback in the league. For a white footballer and a black teammate to be roommates wasn’t unknown, but it still was a cause for gossip. Sayers was one of the game’s top stars during its 1960s Golden Age. Piccolo worked hard for playing time. In the movie, Caan played Piccolo, while Billy Dee Williams portrayed Sayers. The movie had humor. Piccolo was a fun-loving type that every team needs to lighten up the tension. The year 1971 was hardly a Periclean Age in America, but some humor would be out-of-bounds today. In one scene, Piccolo and Sayers squared off for a 40-yard sprint. Piccolo needed to make the team. Beating Sayers in such a dash would improve his chances considerably. As the two lined up, Piccolo struck up a conversation. Piccolo’s wife was pregnant with the couple’s first child. Piccolo told his roommate that he and his wife were thinking about naming the child after Sayers. “Oh yeah?” Sayers piped up. The man

From left: Al Pacino, Marlon Brando, James Caan, and John Cazale (Amazon.com) was impressed. “Yeah,” Piccolo answered. “Spade Piccolo!” The whistle blew and Piccolo raced off, leaving Sayers in the dust. The movie showed real life clips of Sayers and Piccolo starring on the gridiron for the Bears. The movie was tragic. The young Piccolo was diagnosed with cancer. At the end of the year, Sayers won a humanitarian award. In his speech, Williams held up the trophy and announced, “I love Brian Piccolo.” The line brought out handkerchiefs all over the country. Brian’s Song was Caan’s steppingstone for his biggest role. Originally, Caan also auditioned for the part of Michael Corleone, Vito’s youngest son. Al Pacino played Michael, while Caan landed the unforgettable role of Sonny. Caan reportedly prepared for the role by spending time with real-life made men. Once the film was released, Caan complained about certain scenes left on the cutting room floor. In the film, Sonny swaggers through life, having his way with law enforcement officials, rival gangsters and a younger mistress. Mario Puzo’s novel portrays Sonny as a fearsome warrior. During a fictional account of the Castellammarese Wars of the 1930s, Vito

falls ill. The young Sonny takes over and marshals his forces to victory, becoming the most feared man in New York. In the movie, Sonny is portrayed as reckless and temperamental. When Don Vito is wounded in an assassination attempt, Sonny takes charge of the family. He prepares for war only to be talked out of it by Tom Hagen, the family’s Irish-German consigliere. That was a key moment. The Corleones did need a Sicilian advisor. The Godfather, above all, is about family loyalty. Family first, your country a little further down the road. Sonny figures in two dramatic scenes. Both Sonny and Hagen want the Corleones to jump into the narcotics trade. In a meeting with a drug lord, Don Vito says “no.” However, an excited Sonny shows interest. The old man scolds his eldest son. “Don’t tell anyone outside the family what you’re thinking,” he roars. Sonny’s slip of the tongue nearly gets his father killed. At the end of The Godfather, Part II, Michael has a flashback. It’s Dec. 8. 1941, Don Vito’s birthday. The men gather around in a dining room. The talk is about Pearl Harbor. Sonny ridicules the millions of men soon to die “for strangers.” “You

know what those fellows are?” Sonny asks his brothers. “They’re saps, that’s what they are.” For his portrayal of Sonny Corleone, Caan was nominated for an Oscar. He didn’t win, but his career took off. More movies followed, as did such TV series as Las Vegas. A city boy living out West, Caan took up a second career as a professional steer roper at rodeos, boasting that he was “the only Jewish cowboy” on the professional circuit. On two occasions, he was also named the Italian American Man of the Year. Caan accepted the awards, even though on the second time around, he had to remind the committee that he was Jewish, not a son of Italy. Caan was even denied membership to a country club on grounds that he was indeed a real-life mobster. Sonny Corleone lives on. Plus, he was right about a coming war. Hagen was wrong. Blood will tell. After Sonny’s death, Vito and Michael plot revenge on the other New York families. Michael, who the old man never wanted to be part of the family business, pulled off the job. Neither Sonny nor Don Vito were around to see it, but you can’t say they would be displeased.

A Deep Dive Into How Long Island’s Weather Affects The Electrical Grid June 1 marked the start of hurricane season, which is a great time to reflect on how weather affects the electrical grid. It’s more complicated than it might seem. Every weather event, whether it’s a hurricane, a wintertime nor’easter, or a heat storm, is a unique combination of factors that can impact electrical equipment in different ways. PSEG Long Island’s Emergency Planning team considers [more than a dozen] of these factors, along with historical outage data from similar, past storms, in order to plan for the appropriate storm response. Here are some of the most important things decades of experience have taught our dedicated employees about weather and potential system impacts. Leaves Are Like Tiny Sails Long Island is blessed with tens of thousands of beautiful trees and the foliage level on these trees is one of the first things we look at when assessing the potential impact of a storm. Each leaf acts like a tiny sail, absorbing the force of the wind and exerting that force on the trunk and root system of the tree.

Enough force and the tree comes down, sometimes bringing lines and poles with it. A windstorm that hits in early April, before the trees are in full leaf, will have little effect, while heavy winds in June or July, when the trees are at their peak, may create a large impact. In winter, when deciduous trees are bare, wind, by itself, is not often a major factor in outages. Wind Duration Is Just As Important As Wind Speed Once winds exceed 40 mph during seasons when the leaf canopy is present, the potential increases for downed trees that may result in outages. One important thing to remember is that the duration of the high winds can determine the amount of damage. Big trees that can

making them heavier and creating more surface area for winds to act upon.

CLIMATE CHAT Larry Torres

sustain five minutes of 40 mph winds will not necessarily be able to stand eight or 12 hours of 40 mph winds. Rain Isn’t A Big Deal—Until It Is Rain, by itself, may cause some street flooding, but very few areas on Long Island and the Rockaways actually suffer from overbank flooding and PSEG Long Island’s flood-vul-

nerable substations have all had key equipment elevated to prevent flood damage. Water tends to seep into the ground and down into the water table quickly. Rain becomes a factor after an extended rainfall, when the ground is saturated. If high winds occur during this condition, the soil may be too soft to keep tree roots in place, resulting in damage. If It’s Easy To Build A Snowman With, But It’s Hard On The Lines Dry, fluffy snow is not a threat to the electric transmission and distribution systems. Wet snow, on the other hand, tends to stick to large trees, weighing down branches until they snap, sometimes landing on lines and causing damage. Wet snow may have the same effect on electrical lines, poles and other equipment,

In Heat Storms, It’s Almost As Much About The Lines As It Is About Generation On a macro level, the challenge created by periods of extreme heat is ensuring there is sufficient electric generation capacity to handle “peak demand” levels. We prepare for this with power purchase agreements that factor in historical trends. On a micro level, the challenge is mostly predictable. We know that peak demand occurs in the late afternoon when people return home and turn up their air conditioners. Sometimes the excess load from extreme heat taxes the equipment. We monitor the load across the service territory and upgrade the equipment as needed. We tend to see these effects when the heat persists for several days, in some localized areas where more homes were

recently built or where people have rushed out to buy more window-mounted air conditioning units. In these cases, the extreme demand for electricity can cause nearby electrical equipment to operate above rated capacity, which sometimes leads to equipment failure. On high heat days, we plan for possible outages and have additional high voltage workers on the afternoon shifts in case this occurs. If It’s Coming From Down South, Watch Out Storms that drop out from the Hudson Valley and Connecticut at certain times of the year, particularly during July and August, can do some damage, but they tend not to be as severe as the same size storm coming up directly from the south. Those storms have already been over the water and they’re strong enough to survive the less-hospitable marine environment, so when they hit land, they get even more severe.

‘That Thunderstorm Didn’t Have The Toll To Cross The Bridge’ Long Island’s geographic location offers certain benefits: We’re close to the water, so in the summertime, that afternoon breeze kicks in and brings ocean air to cool us off. That’s why, many times, we’ll see these thunderstorms marching across the mid-Atlantic region, and it looks like we’re going to get hammered. They might even wallop New Jersey and Manhattan, but they’re losing their punch by the time they hit Brooklyn and Queens. The effects of the ocean change the way those thunderstorms are being fed, cutting off their ability to get larger and become more severe. When our storm monitoring shows this pattern, we like to say, “That thunderstorm didn’t have the toll to cross the bridge.” These are just a few insights that have come from observing local storms, season after season. It’s far from a comprehensive list, but it illustrates how wildly different weather can be from one storm to the next. We draw upon this knowledge of past Long Island weather events to upgrade the system in the hardest hit areas to prepare for future extreme weather events. And while weather forecasting is not an exact science, we draw upon that same deep, earned knowledge of past weather events to augment the predictive meteorology, influencing what time of day we bring extra line workers on shift, where we stage personnel and replacement materials, when to request mutual aid from off-Island, and many more decisions that contribute to an effective storm restoration. This hurricane season, I hope you and your family stay safe. We will be watching the skies and considering everything nature has taught us in order to bring you the excellent service you deserve.

Second Stops: Ann Arbor And Chicago jcorr@antonmediagroup.com

uly 6 started off a little hectic. My friend and I had, the day before, booked a taxi to the local Amtrak station in Sandusky, OH, so that we could catch our 5 a.m. train that would connect us with our bus, which would ultimately take us to Ann Arbor, MI. We woke up at 3 a.m. and I checked to see if our train was on time… it wasn’t. The train kept delaying and delaying until it would come in the late morning. But it ultimately worked out for us because we got to Ann Arbor closer to check-in time at our Airbnb. Ann Arbor reminded me a lot of New Paltz. It’s a college town, containing the University of Michigan. College students were walking around everywhere, and you can be sure there were coffee spots at almost every corner, unlike Huron,

OH and Erie, PA. There were also a few marijuana stores. Both of the attractions we went to were free: the University of Michigan Museum of Art and Nichols Arboretum. The museum had art from all around the world; and also a very interesting exhibit on water quality. And the arboretum had trails surrounded by bright green leaves, flowers and a very fresh smell that I couldn’t exactly pinpoint what it was. We also went to Trader Joe’s, which was almost identical (besides the layout) to the one I work at in Lake Grove. For the first time on this trip, we shared the Airbnb with other people. There was a mom and daughter in the room next to us and the owner of the house was there too. She had the cutest dog, named Wallace, who was following us around and she let us use her washing machine. The next day, we headed to Chicago and got there at about 2 p.m. and checked into our hotel.

Chicago

I loved Chicago; perhaps my favorite place we visited so far. We did the 360 Tower, which took us up 94 floors to get the best view of Chicago; we tried deep-dish pizza and then we took an architecture tour along the Chicago River. We both said it reminded us of a less-busy New York City. And we were so excited to finally have public transportation so that we no longer had to rely on Uber. The following day, we went to Shedd Aquarium, a short walk from our Travelodge Hotel and

Deep dish pizza from Lou Malnati’s Pizza.

This is part two of a series on traveling the country via Amtrak.

Time For Fun by Seward Johnson

Out Of Sight by Seward Johnson

Revisiting The Familiar: Seward Johnson At The Gardens Seward Johnson (1930-2020) was a visionary, artist and philanthropist that established an international community of artists with the Johnson Atelier in Hamilton, NJ, later going on to create Grounds For Sculpture, a 42-acre nonprofit sculpture park, museum, and arboretum on the site of the former New Jersey State Fairgrounds. A recipient of the International Sculpture Center’s 2019 Lifetime Achievement in Contemporary Sculpture Award, Seward passed away at the age of 89 in March of 2020, but the Atelier continues his legacy, producing and preserving works of art and design, while creating cultural experiences and expanding artistic possibility.

n addition to the exhibit at Old Westbury Gardens, Seward’s work is featured in collections worldwide with select exhibitions in Plant City, FL, Elkhart, IN, and Wildwood, NJ this summer. “Re-Visiting the Familiar: Seward Johnson at Old Westbury Gardens” features 35 individual pieces focusing on sculptural commentary about dayto-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. Prior to becoming a well-known 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. Each of the paintings hung in the House allow a rare window through

A display of Seward’s unrealized maquettes, or studies, recently cast in plaster, will also be shown in Westbury House, as well as a small selection of work from artist Herk van Tongeren, friend and colleague to Johnson. An architect at heart, his work predominantly consists of three-dimensional, geometrical objects positioned within a stage-like setting.

Who Was Herk Van Tongeren?

From 1976 until the time of his death in 1987, van Tongeren was the president and executive director at the Johnson Atelier Technical Institute of Sculpture. By helping establish the Atelier and its master apprentice system, he inspired young sculptors to

follow him from California to New Jersey to hone their skills, and attracted many prominent artists from around the world to create their work there. His influences are intrinsically intertwined in the histories of both the Atelier and Grounds For Sculpture. A small selection of van Tongeren’s work from the Atelier’s collection is featured at Old Westbury Gardens to honor his memory, as well as to offer an opportunity to become acquainted with a unique body of work and to understand the importance of pursuing and developing one’s own sculptural language. “Re-Visiting the Familiar: Seward Johnson at Old Westbury Gardens” is on view through Sept. 5.

Hudson Valley Distillery Pioneers Whiskey Movement As a pioneer of the American craft whiskey movement, Hudson Whiskey started out like many New York stories, with a daring proposition. In this case, to make New York’s first bourbon ever and to open the first distillery in the state since Prohibition. Hudson Whiskey was invented with a rebellious mindset to create a bold American whiskey unlike any other within the category, from a place unlike any other in the world, New York. From the majestic views of the Hudson Valley to the bright lights of Broadway, Hudson Whiskey is a celebration of New York spirit and the brilliant, creative, and resilient people who call it home.

spicy, with notes of citrus and honey and a bright mint finish, Do The Rye Thing is as iconic as the classic New York slice. In the city that never sleeps, the diner is an institution. Short Stack is a toast to those late-night haunts, and the characters that inhabit them. Distilled from hearty New York rye, mellowed in American oak, then finished in Vermont maple syrup barrels. Hudson Whiskey sends its ex-bourbon barrels across the Atlantic where they’re used to age peated whiskey, then emptied and returned to the Hudson distillery where they are filled again with straight rye whiskey. There’s nothing sinister about it, it’s just how the world works. A bit of smoke, a bit of spice. Good enough to seal the Back Room Deal.

Ingredients: • 2 parts Hudson Bright Lights, Big Bourbon • ¾ part fresh lime juice • ¾ part demerara simple syrup • 6 to 8 basil leaves, torn Method: Add all to cocktail shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Fine strain up into coupe glass. Garnish with fresh basil leaf— slap before serving to release aromatics. Demerara simple syrup—1:1 simple syrup using demerara or turbinado sugar.

NEW MONEY OLD FASHIONED

Ingredients: • 2 Parts Hudson Bright Lights, Big Bourbon Whiskey • 1 spoonful of demerara simple syrup • 1 to 2 dashes aromatic bitters Method: Add all ingredients to mixing glass with ice and stir until well-chilled, then strain into an old fashioned/rocks glass over a

Hudson Whiskey’s complexity and range allows for versatility and innovation in classic cocktails and modern mixology as well as a smooth and balanced tasting experience neat, on the rocks, or with a splash of water.

Exhibition:

‘Chris Lloyd Paintings 1980-1990’ Chris Lloyd was born in 1959 on Long Island. As a child, Lloyd showed incredible potential as an artist. He would sit for hours drawing his favorite cartoon characters and classic movie monsters. Lloyd feverishly created detailed comics and storyboards which eventually led to making elaborate sets and props for his own stop motion creations.

s a young adult Lloyd studied painting at The Students Art League, Manhattan (1975-1976). He also studied at The School of Visual Arts, Manhattan (1977-1979) and Southampton College (1980-82) where he received a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts. Lloyd studied under great artists including Peter Heinemann, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Munford and Jack Bush. Following college, Lloyd was quite prolific in the studio and exhibited his work regularly throughout the Hamptons and Manhattan. In the 1980s, Chris was able to produce a powerful body of work. His paintings are a harmonious collision of contradicting art movements and ‘isms’. Through Aug. 26, Sid Jacobson Jewish Community Center (SJJCC) will host the “Chris Lloyd 1980-1990” exhibition, which is open to the public. “When we were first contacted by Abby [Lloyd] to exhibit her uncle’s work we were

touched once we understood the history of these pieces,” said Jaime Teich, vice president of brand strategy and communications for SJJCC artSPACE. “Being chosen as the facility to exhibit the work of her late uncle, feeling the pride Abby experienced as she curated each piece, seeing the emotions she and her father shared as they hung each piece, brought us to a new level of understanding what artSPACE could be. artSPACE is not only an avenue to exhibit beautiful community work, it’s a place for healing, connection and growth.” Though Lloyd’s work expresses playful irreverence, his approach was disciplined and rooted in art history. His works are clever, but it’s his ability and dedication to rendering that elevate these paintings into modern masterpieces. This exhibition was co-curated by Lloyd’s niece Abby Lloyd and Chris’s brother Steve Lloyd. Lloyd’s career was tragically cut short in the early 1990s when he endured a

life-altering car accident. He suffered a severe brain injury, leaving him paralyzed from the neck down. Lloyd lived for 17 years after his catastrophic accident. He died in 2009. Although Lloyd endured significant injuries his spirit never wavered. He loved to laugh and always had a smile on his face. This is the first exhibition of Lloyd’s artwork since his car accident. “SJJCC and our members are thrilled about the re-emergence of our art gallery, artSPACE,” Teich said. “Re-launching in January 2022 with the interesting multi-media works of Alan Richards, ‘Human Nature,’ magnificent pieces of art created by members in the community bring life to our walls and conversation to those who view each exhibit.” She added, “Having the Nassau County Museum of Art right across the street where the works of famous artists can be seen, it is a wonderful moment for Sid Jacobson JCC to be able to return to featuring the talents of the members who make up this vibrant community.” Sid Jacobson Jewish Community Center is located at 300 Forest Dr., in Greenvale.

The Gold Coast:

Its Life In The American Imagination BY JOE SCOTCHIE

jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

No one knows when the moniker “Gold Coast” came into being. If the 1920s represented the first decade of the modern era, then you say can it was also the decade when Long Island’s North Shore made its debut as a place of style and intrigue.

or a century, the Gold Coast has figured into the cultural life of Long Island, from the 1924 publication of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby to the Gold Coast Film Festival which thrives to this day. For Long Island, as with the rest of America, World War II was the dividing line in its history. Prior to the war, Long Island was a mixture of mansions and potato farmers. After the war, suburbia. It was a long time coming. The area was settled in the 17th century. Long Island was then under Dutch control. It didn’t last long. The British, with their superior navies, soon overwhelmed the Dutch and became the sole masters of the island. Whaling was the main industry on the island. In the mid-19th century, the Industrial Revolution hit America’s shores. Financiers made fortunes in railroads, steel, and soon, automobiles. Many of them set up mansions on the

North Shore. The Gold Coast was born. By 1890, the mansion building boom was underway. The industrialists of that era: the Vanderbilts, Astors, Whitneys, J.P. Morgan and F.W. Woolworth, among others, found a refugee from the business world. Over 500

mansions were constructed during that golden era. The Vanderbilts and the Astors lived and entertained in mansions designed by such greats as Stanford White, Guy Lowell, and John Russell Pope. The architectural styles were English Tudor, French

Chateau, Georgian, Gothic, Mediterranean, Norman, Roman, and Spanish. Among the most spectacular were the Old Westbury Gardens, the former home of U.S. Steel magnate John Shaffer Phipps and the Oheka Castle, home to financer Otto Kahn,

a mansion reputed to be the second largest in America, after the Vanderbilt House in Asheville, North Carolina. Another prominent mansion that still stands today is Sagamore Hill, which Theodore Roosevelt called home. The 1920s surely were the heyday of the Gold Coast era. The Great Gatsby, set in Great Neck divided into “East Egg” and “West Egg” became synonymous with the wealth, glitter, and tragedy of the era as the doomed Jay Gatsby tried to graduate into the world of old money. The decade was defined not just by Fitzgerald’s novels and stories, but also Charles Lindbergh’s 1927 solo flight across the Atlantic. In one 33-hour flight, Lindbergh became the most famous man on the planet. He took off from Roosevelt Field on Long Island and landed on a field in France. The locals in that European country treated Lindbergh as a hero who

was also one of their own. Americans were not to be outdone. Lindbergh was treated to a ticker tape parade on Broadway, one that was attended by no less than four million people. Later that night, he was feted at a gala dinner at the home of Clarence MacKay’s Roslyn Estates mansion. The Mackay mansion was filled with guests and well-wishers. The June 14, 1927 New York Times dedicated the top fold of its entire front page to the parade with numerous articles on the man. One of those articles described the evening. Lindbergh and his mother, accompanied by New York City Mayor Jimmy Walker, arrived at the Mackay mansion at around 9 p.m. Clarence Mackay had invited Lindbergh to take a nice swim in the mansion’s outdoor pool. The aviator, running late, declined. A gala dinner was held in Lindbergh’s honor. Among the attendees were not just the mayor, but such notables as Mrs. Theodore

Old Westbury Gardens

Oheka Castle

Roosevelt, John W. Davis, the Democratic Party’s 1924 presidential nominee and Pierpont Morgan. The night was a success. The Times’ reporter waxed eloquently. “At the summit, Colonel Lindbergh came to Mr. Mackay’s famous Versailles garden where flood lights concealed in the shrubbery and on the roof bathed the scene in soft gray light, in competition with the real moon shining in the sky…Far to the west could be seen the twinkling lights of New York’s towers; below, on the Sound, were steamers threading their way through the night. It was like the fairyland which Colonel Lindbergh himself described after piloting his plane at night, above the clouds, by moonlight.” Afterwards, Lindbergh retreated to the mansion of Captain Harry Guggenheim in Sands Point to write his best-selling memoir, We, and to court his future bride,

Vanderbilt Mansion

Anne Morrow. That evening represented a zenith in the life of the Gold Coast. It seemed that the good times would last. History never stands still. Two years later, overlending practices caused the stock market to crash. The grim of the 1930s came to their own end with America’s entry into World War II. After the war, the middle class continued its 1920s-style boom. This era was different, Car culture, the desire for home ownership and the changing demographics of New York City ushered in the age of suburbia. The Gold Coast was a victim. Mansions went down, housing tracts were constructed. Only about 200 of the original 500 mansions survive. All is not lost. Some of these mansions live on as museums. That includes the Frick mansion as the Nassau County Museum of Art and Sagamore Hill as a museum to the life and legacy of Theodore Roosevelt.

one of three entree items from the “prime cuts” section (steak stir fry, filet mignon or the Marco Polo teriyaki burger). For something a little in between, choose from a selection of personal flatbread pizzas or a generous helping of one of three pasta plates (penne alla sake, penne al romano or American-style meatballs over Asian noodles). Save room for one of the decadent desserts too. In addition to specialty coffees or after-dinner cocktails, you will have a tough time deciding betweeen the wildly popular s’mores egg rolls (chocolate chips and marshmallows hand-rolled and deep fried in an egg roll shell), a brownie sundae, a New York-style cheesecake or a freshly baked plate of Grandma’s cookies (assortment of chocolate chip, double chocolate, oatmeal and lemon cookies). Marco Polo’s kitchen staff will accommodate dining requests for pint-sized guests, including butter pasta, hamburgers, fries and chicken fingers. The hotel and restaurant are friendly and accommodating. The wait staff is knowledgeable about the menu and is willing to make some dining suggestions. Free valet and metered street parking are available. The restaurant is open Monday through Friday from 4 to 11 p.m., Saturday and Sunday from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. Happy

Hour specials are available from Tuesday through Thursday. Marco Polo’s is located inside the Inn at Great Neck at 30 Cutter Mill Rd. Brasserie Americana, a French American bistro, formerly occupied the restaurant space. The newly reimaged fusion East meets West dining experience reopened just a few weeks ago. The restaurant can accommodate private and semi-private events, up to 30 people for events such as corporate events, birthdays, anniversaries and other special celebrations. There is also a private VIP dining room that can accommodate up to eight guests and offers leather seating, television and adjustable lighting to set any mood. You are likely to get easy seating during the week, but reservations are highly recommended for Thursday through Sunday and especially on days when there is much fanfare happening just down the avenue at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, such as changes in command, graduations and high-ranking official visits. Dine-in, patio service and curbside pickup are available. Delivery service is not available. Visit www.innatgreatneck.com or call 516-773-2000 for more information and reservations.

DAVE GIL de RUBIO dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

hen it comes to the creative process, no one can ever accuse The Black Keys of ever taking a complicated approach to scratching their musical itch. It’s an approach guitarist/vocalist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney have perfected since the duo got together at Akron’s Firestone High School back in 1996. Most recently, that unspoken compositional ESP carried the twosome through the pandemic and yielded two recordings in as many years—2021’s Grammy-nominated collection of hill country blues songs that is Delta Kream and the recently released Dropout Boogie. That innate Buckeye symbiosis led to the former being cut in a day and a half, with the latter being a far strenuous affair by coming to completion around the 10-day mark. For Auerbach, it was a matter of forward motion providing the fuel for this kind of prolificness. “We had just come out of that Delta Kream record and with us loving how well it turned out, we just kind of took that momentum and went right into this new record,” he explained. “It was great—we didn’t really think about it too much. There are three or four songs on the record that are first takes and we only played once and haven’t played since but we’ll definitely play again. It’s that kind of thing. And then there are other songs like ‘Wild Child’ that we spent a little bit more time on. But I think it was a healthy mix of both—studio creations and total improvisations. I think that blend gives it a good raw sound. If you’re fortunate enough to be in a situation like I am with Pat where we don’t even have to talk—you can just go in and let whatever natural chemistry evolve..” What can be heard in the 10 songs that make up Dropout Boogie is a freewheeling looseness that starts with the irresistible rocking opener “Wild Child” and doesn’t stop right through closing cut “Didn’t I Love You,” a hypnotic fuzz guitar-soaked blues jam that falls somewhere between Canned Heat and CCR. Elsewhere, the duo dabble in psychedelic soul by way of “It Ain’t Over” and its stacked wailing harmonies while Carney’s loose-limbed timekeeping provides a perfect counterpoint to Auerbach’s plaintive vocals on the emotive “How Long?” And while the Keys have historically kept the creative process to

Black Keys Keep It Simple With Dropout Boogie The Black Keys from left: Patrick Carney and Dan Auerbach. (Photo by Jim Herrington) within their small circle, save for a few times of working with respected producer Dangermouse, Boogie found the Buckeye twosome inviting in Greg Cartwright (Reigning Sound), Angelo Petraglia (Kings of Leon) and Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top. It’s a move Auerbach admits was one of the main differences he and Carney took on this project as opposed to prior outings. “We try to keep it simple and not think about [the creative process],” he explained. With The Black Keys having released 11 albums since dropping the 2002 debut The Big Come Up, its no surprise that music was a big constant for Auerbach dating back to a childhood full of memories ranging from his mother playing Scott Joplin rags and “The Entertainer” on piano to his dad playing records from everyone from The Beatles, Rolling Stones and the Grateful Dead to Robert Johnson and Son House. But it was Auerbach’s mom’s musical side of the family that inspired him to pick up a guitar. “Whenever we had family reunions, I would see acoustic guitars, mandolins, harmonicas and upright basses and everybody would be singing harmonies, so there was a

lot of music growing up,” he said. One relative he formed a solid connection with was the late Robert Quine, a storied guitarist best known for his work with Lou Reed and Matthew Sweet. A second cousin once removed, Auerbach remembers Quine having some reluctance about having a familial meet-up. “He grew up one block north from me,” Auerbach recalled. “His mom and dad, Rosalie and Bob, would always come over for dinner or we’d go over to their house. I hung out with Robert one time at his mom’s after my mom made him meet me. I think he probably assumed I was going to be some snot-nosed kid with a Limp Bizkit record or something. But I showed up with a couple of pawnshop guitars and a Junior Kimbrough record and he’d never heard Junior Kimbrough before. I played it for him and he was f-----g ecstatic and into it. He started telling me about his whole life and guitar. We really hit it off and I felt a real connection to him. He really opened up to me and said when we play New York City to call him. The rest of my family thought he was a prickly guy, but that’s because he was a music obsessive like me. I think we kind of understood each other a little bit.” That restless creativity continues for Auerbach, who is embarking with Carney on the road. Band of Horses are opening for all the dates while a trio of artists—Ceramic Animal, Early James and the Velveteers—all who record for Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound

label, will open at select dates. Fans can expect the Keys to “...play some of the hits of course. We’re also going to play a little bit from all of the catalog start to finish.” In the meantime, the band is keeping it simple while continuing to let the creative juices flow. “We never try to reinvent the wheel,” Auerbach said. “I think a lot of modern-day bands, especially bands that have gone to college, they tend to try and reinvent themselves every single record. We’re just fortunate that we’ve had our own thing since we were 16 or 17 and we just lean into that. The fact that I get to make a different record every couple of weeks in the studio—I don’t feel the need to reinvent myself. It’s like putting on a comfortable pair of boots that are worn in and formed to my feet. We just get in there and do our thing. We’ve been working nonstop on new music and probably have more than half of it done with some special guests coming in and writing with us. Not being on the road has really been helpful for Pat and I and our relationship. I just think we feel more creative than ever I must say.” The Black Keys will be appearing with Band of Horses on July 22 at Northwell at Jones Beach Theater, 1000 Ocean Pkwy, Wantagh.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re not fickle with your friendships. You have your reasons for liking someone, and your values remain constant. Still, relationships can really change over time, and so will the nature of your feelings. This week, you will be celebrating affection that endures past the emotions of the moment.

The thin blue line Solution: 19 Letters

Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 19 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

The thin blue line

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll work hard, ever-mindful that you’re part of a team. You pull your weight and then some because you know others will be affected. Certain others are oblivious to their effect, or simply don’t care. The situation will soon be made right. For now, focus on your own contribution while looking out for true allies.

Solution: 19 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll find truth in this expression: The days are long, but the years are short. You’ll find yourself grappling with the way you use time and striving for greater efficiency. There’s so much you want to accomplish! There’s something you’ll do with 15 minutes a day that will add up to a remarkable result.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Social conditioning might be wrongheaded, but in the moment a message is conveyed by peers you admire, you’re listening with something other than reason. This is why it’s better not to make decisions at the party, in the store or in the first meeting. Give yourself time away from peer pressure to get clearheaded. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You won’t have to ask who is on your side when you’re on your own side -- and such an avid supporter that you don’t even notice what anyone else is doing. You wouldn’t want this level of confidence or self-interest all the time, but it’s necessary for selling an idea or making a place for yourself in the hierarchy. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). This week brings a search. Fit is everything. It doesn’t matter what value people put on a thing; what matters is how it matches up to your needs. Success therefore has everything to do with knowing yourself well. Respect will be a strong theme of the later week. You’ll often be the first to extend it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today you’ll have the willpower to do what you say you’ll do. But what about tomorrow, and the next day, and the day after that? Eventually, your freshly minted plans for yourself will become routine, and then just part of who you are. But until then, an accountability partner can help you forge the habit. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll have a low tolerance for inconsiderate treatment; anyone who’s not paying you good attention won’t be able to hold yours. You’ll go where you’re appreciated. The difference between bad company and good company is night and day. When you’re in the right place, you feel seen and accepted. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Feeling safe enough to say what’s on your mind is no small thing. You’ll appreciate your freedom and use it to create improvement for more than just yourself. Improvement is change. Change makes some people nervous, even when it’s for the better. Expect some resistance and don’t let it stop you. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). As a rule of thumb, the stronger the feeling, the shorter its duration. Wicked winds blow through. Thunder rolls to the next place. The hard rain doesn’t last. You’ll make use of the emotional energy if it helps you get where you’re going. Or you’ll just let it pass, identifying more with the sky than the weather.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAY

The strength you’ve cultivated will be put to excellent use. Your daring attracts an opportunity to be seen by those with the power to promote you. Challenges fall to you because someone senses you can handle it. Thrilling prizes are in store. Not only will you get the result you want but it will happen in the most pleasing time frame. Love and friendship will bring you to unusual settings. A fair amount of cuteness comes into your daily experience, perhaps through children, pets or a hobby.

Heads I win, tails you lose South dealer. Both sides vulnerable. NORTH ♠ 10 5 4 2 ♥ A 10 6 ♦KJ3 ♣8 6 3 WEST EAST ♠Q8 ♠KJ963 ♥8 7 5 4 3 ♥— ♦6 ♦98742 ♣A K J 5 2 ♣ 10 7 4 SOUTH ♠A7 ♥K Q J 9 2 ♦ A Q 10 5 ♣Q 9 The bidding: South West North East 1♥ Pass 2♥ Pass 4♥ Opening lead — king of clubs. It goes without saying that a declarer should avoid making plays that can lose but never gain. Conversely, declarer should always be on the lookout for plays that can gain but cannot lose. This principle is surely not debatable, but its application in a given situation is not always easy to spot. Consider this deal where South was in four hearts. West led the K-A of clubs and continued with the jack. Declarer ruffed and led a trump to the ace, discovering to his

horror that West had all five missing trumps. South did the best he could by abandoning further trump leads and playing diamonds instead. But West ruffed the second diamond and returned a trump, and South later lost a spade trick to go down one. It is true that when five cards of a suit are missing, they will divide 5-0 only 4% of the time. So to that extent, South was unlucky. Nevertheless, the fact remains that he made an error in the play, and the gods saw fit to punish him for it. Had South been a member of the school that always asks at the start of play “What can defeat me?” he might have found the way to safeguard his contract. He would have realized, when West continued with a club at trick three, that only a 5-0 trump break could defeat him. Then, in order to protect against this possibility, he would have discarded his seven of spades on the jack of clubs in order to maintain control of the trumps. Discarding a spade on the club jack could not cost South a trick, but offered him a chance to gain one. It was therefore the correct play, although not an easy one to think of. Tomorrow: Playing the waiting

game.

Governor Hochul signs Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti’s Bill

Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti (D-Port Washington) announced a bill she sponsored allowing the state Department of Labor to use electronic storage devices for keeping public and other records was signed by Governor Kathy Hochul into law today which will enact the technological use of the Department of

Labor’s record keeping (Ch. 294 of 2022). “Modern technology is more efficient and cost-effective, and state agencies should be using these tools to their advantage,” Sillitti said. “The Department of Labor has been forced to use outdated technology to store records due to regulations. I sponsored

common-sense legislation that allows this department to use electronic storage devices for its records.” Labor Law has required the Labor Department to use optical disc technology to store public records, documents and other matters required by law. The bill sponsored

by Sillitti would change the requirement to any form of electronic storage. The proposed change would help reduce storage costs, increase retrieval speed and boost productivity, noted Sillitti. —Submitted by the office of Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti

NORTH HIGH ATHLETE EARNS ALL-AMERICAN HONORS Adam Namdar, a senior at North High School, capped off his high school track and field career with a podium finish at the Nike Outdoor National Championships in Eugene, Oregon on June 18. He competed in the high jump against the best high school athletes in the country and won third place with an impressive jump of 6’7”. Adam McKenzie, coach of the North High boys track team, first encouraged Adam Namdar to try the high jump during the 2021 spring season. Adam was already a member of North High’s track and field team who competed in running events, but he had never competed in the high jump.

Adam immediately found success in his new event. In his very first season competing in the high jump, he won the Division Championship, third place at the Nassau County Championships, and second place at the Long Island Meet of Champions with a jump of 6’4”. Adam earned All-Division, All-County, and All Long Island Honors in the spring of 2021. There was no State Meet in 2021 due to the pandemic. Adam returned to the high jump during the 2022 winter season. He won the Conference Championship and County Championship titles, and he finished in second place at the State Meet with a jump of 6’5”—setting a new school record. Adam also qualified for the National Champi-

onships in the winter season and placed seventh in the competition. He earned All-Conference, All-County, All-State, and All-Long Island Honors. This spring, in his final season as a high school athlete, Adam defended his County Championship title with a jump of 6’6”. He again placed second at the New York State Championships and advanced to the National Championships. This time, Adam cleared 6’7”, earning third place and a spot on the podium at the Nike Outdoor National championships at the famous Hayward Field at the University of Oregon. His final season was the best of his career, earning All-Conference, All-County, All-Long Island, All-State, and All-American Honors.

The North High boys track team is led by Coach Adam McKenzie, a physical education teacher at Lakeville School, and Assistant Coach Israel Henriquez, a Spanish teacher at North High. “Watching Adam compete, placing third and becoming an All American in the high jump at Hayward Field, is one of the top highlights of my coaching career,” says Coach McKenzie, a North High graduate himself (’81) and former school record holder in the high jump event. “I am very proud of him and to have coached him to a new school record in an event that I once held in the same event at North.” —Submitted by the Great Neck Public School District
