TOP STORY
Port Summer Show Celebrates 50 Years Youth theatre company will stage Mary Poppins this summer
HANNAH DEVLIN portwashingtonnews@antonmediagroup.com
T
his summer, Port Summer Show, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to teen theater in town, celebrates its 50th anniversary. The organization not only offers middle school and high school students the opportunity to get more involved in their community, but provides a safe space for theatrical expression as well. The organization has been operating since 1972, and although the staff and board members have changed throughout the years, its mission and dedication have proven persistent. Jesse Pellegrino, Port Summer Show’s current choreographer, explained that “From my first rehearsal, I felt an instant sense of community and family.” This sense of community is something that has proven to be consistent throughout the organization’s different productions. Despite the length of time between each summer, as students return, their bond with each other, the artistic staff and board members, is something that is unchanging Pellegrino has been involved in the organization since 2014, and in that time, has choreographed a wide variety of different genres and styles of dance. “I try my best to educate the cast in each of these styles,” he explained. “It can be a learning process for me as well… I deep dive into these shows and learn all I can about them to fully understand what I need my choreography to accomplish.” This dedication is something that is a staple of the Port Summer Show productions, and it is a sentiment that is shared by all involved. Port Summer Show’s Co-Presidents, Michael and Leah Siskin, expanded on this idea, stating, “This show is nothing without the hard work and efforts of a lot of people, the cast, the crew, the pit, all of our creative production team, the many committee directors and parent volunteers, and the donations we receive from the many generous people and businesses in our community.” Throughout its 50 years, Port Summer Show has grown and evolved in order to provide students with the best experience possible. “We had to completely reinvent the program for 2020 when the COVID-19

pandemic made a live show impossible,” the Siskins explained. Despite the challenge, the organization remained dedicated. In the 2020 “Can’t Stop Us” series, Port Summer Show was able to provide its students with a variety of virtual classes and programs. “It is not an easy feat when dealing with theater,” said Pellegrino. “Being live is the very essence of theater, and when that got taken away we were faced with a challenge. Needless to say, we persevered and were able to give the kids a unique theatrical experience.” In the midst of unexpected complications, Port Summer Show proved its commitment to its community. It is no surprise that with the devotion displayed, the organization has become a staple program in the community. In honor of the anniversary, David Burnett, the organization’s first musical director, has put together a “First 50 Shows” medley to celebrate the 50 summers of outstanding productions. The medley will feature songs from each show, and even the virtual programs during 2020 are
represented in the song. “It’s been fun finding good representative bits of music to represent each summer’s show and to combine them all in a fun way,” explained Burnett. In addition to the vocal aspect of the medley, Burnett has arranged a full pit orchestra score as well. Burnett acted as musical director for the first six shows that the organization put on, and has returned occasionally to fill in for various roles, such as directing or playing in the pit orchestra. Once again, this dedication is something that is unique about the organization, as evidenced by the retention rate of all of those who have been involved. “I understand how hard it is for volunteer groups to survive past the involvement of their originators,” said Burnett. “The PSS not just survived, but has thrived. I am both proud and amazed that the group is still putting on shows 50 years after we started.” This summer, the organization has announced Mary Poppins as its 50th anniversary production. As with many popular
stage musicals, Mary Poppins poses the challenge of recognition. “It is our task to bring this story to life before the audience’s eyes and not tarnish the memories they hold so dear,” said Pellegrino. “I think we are doing just that.” With its whimsical charm and fantastical magic, the production aims to exceed already-high expectations. “These talented young performers take the stage with style and grace that is way beyond their years,” continued Pellegrino. Especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, live music and theater is something that has proven to be an extraordinary experience—and one that should not be taken for granted. “Music and theatre are both things that people can enjoy their whole lives, whether it’s on stage or in the audience. It starts by giving young people a chance to try it out for themselves. The Port Summer Show continues to give the teens in Port that opportunity,” said Burnett. “I’m very glad it does.”

A
Homeowner Tax Rebate Credit Program Offers Critical Relief
ssemblywoman Gina L. Sillitti (D-Port Washington) highlights legislative action she took in the 2022-2023 state budget providing 2.2 billion to create the one-year Homeowners Tax Rebate Credit (HTRC) program. The program allows the NYS Department of Taxation and Finance to automatically send tax rebate checks to all eligible homeowners. “With the ever-rising costs of groceries, utilities, rent and basic needs, I took legislative action to help pass a state budget that provides much needed relief for our Long Island communities,” said Sillitti. “The state budget not only suspended our state’s
gas tax for the rest of the year and secured funding to help residents catch up on utility bills, it also created a critical one-year property tax rebate program for homeowners. As our state moves forward in the wake of COVID-19, it’s more important than ever to help lower costs for Long Island families.” To be eligible, individuals must have qualified for a 2022 STAR credit or exemption, had income less than or equal to $250,000 for the 2020 tax year and a school tax liability for the 2022-2023 school year that is more than their 2022 STAR benefit. No action is needed for those who qualify —Tax Rebate Credit checks are being continuously mailed through the next few
months. While the NYS Dept. of Taxation and Finance’s HTRC program calculates eligibility automatically, Sillitti encourages homeowners to learn more about the program, eligibility factors, Tax Rebate Credit total look-up tool and additional information by visiting: www.tax.ny.gov/pit/property/homeown er-tax-rebate-credit.htm www.tax.ny.gov/help/contact/contac tus-prop.htm www.tax.ny.gov/pit/property/cred it-lookup.htm —Submitted by the office of Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti

Pride in Port Awards Presented to 2022 Graduates The Schreiber High School Awards Ceremony included Pride in Port awards and a scholarship. Recipients are chosen based on their high level of “Pride in Port.” The Barbara Faticone Pride in Port Scholarship is given to a senior who best demonstrates the same volunteer qualities of the Pride in Port committee’s beloved co-chair, Barbara Faticone. A lifelong resident of Port Washington, Barbara’s community involvement spans 50 years with dozens of organizations. Based on her dedication to our community, Amy Baxter was chosen as the
recipient of the 2019 Scholarship. “It is impressive and heartwarming to learn how many things the students volunteer for while still in school,” Faticone said. “Amy truly exemplifies what Pride in Port is all about. We are very proud to honor her.” Pride in Port Community Service Awards are given to seniors who make significant contributions to Pride in Port, such as the pep rally, parade, etc. The 2022 Community Service Award recipients are Sarah Braunschweiger, Rebecca Gaidis, Carlene Geida, Matthew
Hellerman, Kelly Interiano and Olivia Johnson. The Pride in Port committee extends thanks and appreciation to these students for their exceptional dedication to the community.

OBITUARY
Former Port Washington Business Owner Edna Turner Dies Former Port Washington resident Edna Turner has died. No information on where she passed or final arrangements were available. She served on the Port Washington Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors for many years, until her health no longer let her continue. She was well known for the flower she always wore in her hair. The Chamber honored Edna in 1998 as Small Businessperson of the Year. Here is an excerpt of her bio from 1998: “Edna Turner has been an owner-manager of Twin Pines Co-op at 382 Main St. in Port Washington for twenty-five years. Originally begun as a quality food store for low-income residents, Twin Pines Co-op has greatly expanded its role in the community under Edna’s leadership. Edna implemented a work-experience program for
mentally handicapped and developmentally disabled adults. She instituted a free food pantry to serve local churches and senior citizens centers. Twin Pines Co-op sponsors AARP driving courses at its location. Edna is also a proactive environmentalist. She has made Twin Pines Co-op a recycling center for batteries, paper bags and consumer waste as well as a distributor of water conservation kits for the Port Washington Water District. In addition, Edna is an organizer of annual beach cleanups for Earth Day. “Edna has been an active member of the board of directors of the Port Washington Chamber of Commerce since 1991. She is on the executive committee for the Chamber’s HarborFest celebration and has served as chairperson of the HarborFest Enviro-Expo. “Edna has lived in Port Washington for 24
years—the last 12 years on a houseboat. She is active in many worthwhile community activities including being on the board of directors of the Landmark on Main Street Committee and the Port Washington Hispanic Outreach. She is very committed to her church and serves as a Lector, Eucharist Minister, member of the music ministry and is one of only two non-Spanish members of the Spanish choir. Edna works seven days a week as a volunteer as well as in her position at Twin Pines Co-op. She is an invaluable member of the Port Washington Chamber of Commerce and the Port Washington community.” Edna was an extraordinary person. Rest in peace Edna and thank you for all the good you did in your lifetime. —Submitted by the Port Washington Chamber of Commerce

“Hope Through the Eyes of an Immigrant” Throughout the month of July, the Port Washington Public Library is presenting its exhibit “Hope Through the Eyes of an Immigrant.” The essays included in the exhibit were written by the library’s English for Speakers of Other Languages students. Students of all levels were instructed to write about their hopes after moving to a new country. The exhibition aims to allow the library’s patrons to learn about the diversity of their town and read their peers’ narratives.
Lixia Neville I’m working at Northwell Health system of pulmonary clinic. On March 8, 2020, the first infected person in New York was a couple who returned to New York from a foreign country. In a very short time the number of infected people in New York grew to 111,424 by April 15. At the beginning, no one knows how contagious the coronavirus was. At that time, COVID-19 tests took more than 10 days to get resultw. People didn’t know how to protect themselves. In our hospitals, the emergency rooms were full. The hallways and lobbies were set up for parents’ use. Tents were also set up outside the hospital. At that time, there was a shortage of protection material and ventilations. Medical staff was also short. Some patients got infected and could not see their relatives. No hug before they died. Medical staff who were infected but didn’t have a fever had to go back to work. We had no choice—patients need us to save their lives. I remember at the beginning of the pandemic, I thought about resigning because I know that if I got infected it would spread to my family. Who would take care of us? But my husband said that you are medical staff, patients need you. I told him if I go to work, I will be stay in a hotel or we could separate each room for each person. The meals are not served on the same table. We haven’t hugged and kissed each other in over two years. He drives me to work until now. I am allergic to M95 masks’ rubber that cause my face to get swollen, itchy and red. I only use no-rubber M95 maskd. I’m glad I got full vaccines. I hope the epidemic will end soon and people of world will return to normal life. —Submitted by the ESOL Coordinator at the Port Washington Public Library
Kaho; our daughter She came to our home on a very chilly and snowy day in New York. Kaho, a Japanese name, was her given name. We usually use Japanese Kanji characters for names, because they not only represent sounds, but each letter has its own meaning. The Kanji character we chose for ‘Ka’ means ’fulfilling something’ and the letter for ‘Ho’ symbolizes a sailboat. Like a sailboat that could move forward despite headwinds, we hoped that she would take her life into her own hands and achieve success. We also hoped her name would remind us of the beautiful scenery of the Manhasset Bay where she was born even after we would return to Japan. She has thrived in Port Washington and turned one year old this winter. We are so grateful to this community for watching her grow up. Though we put many meanings into her name, our greatest hope is that she will grow up healthy and happy in a peaceful world. —Submitted by the ESOL Coordinator at the Port Washington Public Library

Town Releases Quails At Trail To Combat Ticks
O
fficials from the Town of North Hempstead, including Supervisor Jennifer DeSena and councilmembers Peter Zuckerman, Veronica Lurvey and Mariann Dalimonte, joined with Ranger Eric Powers from the Center for Environmental Education & Discovery (CEED) at the Hempstead Harbor Trail for the town’s sixth annual quail release, during which over a hundred Northern Bobwhite Quail were released into the forest to combat ticks. The town has released Northern Bobwhite Quail for the past six years to help several of the town’s parks combat ticks without the use of pesticides. The
quail release is part of the town’s broader environmental initiative to use natural methods to control invasive species and disease-carrying pests. The North Hempstead quail program is led by Ranger Powers, who also works with dozens of schools across Long Island who set up quail education programs in their classrooms teaching students to raise the quail as part of their animal life cycle studies that teaches science, environmental studies and responsible stewardship. For more information call the town’s 311 Call Center. —Submitted by the Town of North Hempstead

Northwell Leaders Attend Gun Safety Law White House Ceremony
L
eaders of Northwell Health’s Center for Gun Violence Prevention recently joined President Biden and a bipartisan group of U.S. Senate and House members in celebrating the recent passage of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. Attending the White House ceremony were Dr. Chethan Sathya, a pediatric trauma surgeon who also serves as director of Northwell’s Center for Gun Violence Prevention, and Dr. Jose Prince, Northwell’s chief of pediatric and acute-care surgery, and surgeon-in-chief at Cohen Children’s Medical Center in Queens, where its level-one pediatric trauma unit has already treated more gunshot victims this year than any other year on record. The event also included gun violence survivors, families who have seen loved ones victimized by this public health crisis and other advocates who have been demanding action to prevent some of the more than 45,000 firearm-related homicides, accidental shootings and suicides that occurred in the U.S. last year, including a record number of deaths involving children. Among its intervention and advocacy efforts, Northwell has been imploring other hospitals and health systems across the

country to engage with the communities they serve to break the cycle of violence. In a first-of-its-kind research study, Northwell is using a $1.4 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to screen patients in emergency departments who may be at risk of gun violence in the communities where they live or work. Similar to how they query patients about personal health issues like diet and exercise, and whether they smoke or drink, Northwell clinicians are now asking patients such

questions as, “Do you have access to a firearm within or outside your household?” or “In the past six months, including today, how often have you heard guns being shot or had someone pull a gun on you?” Based on the answers they get, clinicians can talk to patients about ways to reduce the risk of injury in their homes, such as safe storage of firearms or connect them to violence intervention programs or other services. Among its important features, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act will provide hundreds of millions of dollars to expand mental health services, including suicide prevention and trauma care for school children, and support community violence intervention and prevention initiatives to address some of the underlying causes of gun violence. It also includes $750 million to help states implement “red flag” laws that allow families and law enforcement to temporarily remove someone’s guns if their behavior indicates they’re a danger to themselves or others. In addition, the legislation closes the so-called “boyfriend loophole,” meaning that anyone who is deemed to have been in a serious dating relationship and convicted of domestic violence could no longer own

a gun—it’s estimated that every month, an average of 70 women are shot and killed by an intimate partner. In addition to the gun safety screening being done at Cohen Children’s Medical Center, South Shore University Hospital in Bay Shore and Staten Island University Hospital, Northwell has received state funding to establish violence intervention programs at those three hospitals, where social workers and other clinical staff are partnering with community-based organizations and other advocacy groups. To engage other health care professionals nationally on this issue, Northwell established the Gun Violence Prevention Learning Collaborative for Health Systems and Hospitals, which began holding monthly meetings in April 2021. To date, more than 500 health care professionals from across the country have joined the network, enabling them to share ideas and best practices that have proven effective in mitigating street violence, suicide and accidental shootings. Since 2019, Northwell has also convened three Gun Violence Prevention Forums to mobilize health care providers, policymakers and practitioners. —Submitted by Northwell Health

BOOK TALK
Review Of: The War On The West JOSEPH SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com
G
ranted that inserting a quote by Vladimir Putin is hardly the way to gain a reader’s sympathy. Still, The War On The West details what happens when a people and their leaders become just that—weak and beaten. After a brief introduction, Douglas Murray’s best seller gets to the heart of the matter in a manner both blunt and shocking. “There is an obvious…truth about people in the West,” Murray writes. “Historically the citizens of Europe and their offspring societies in the Americas and Australasia have been white…The majority of people in Africa have been black and the majority of people in the Indian subcontinent have been brown… If you wished to level an assault on everything to do with Africa, you might… decide to target people for being black. If you to delegitimize everything about Indians, you might…decide to attack its people for the color of their skin. Both would be inhumane and would be… identified as such.” And then the kicker. “In the war on the West, white people are one of the first subjects of attack…To delegitimize the West…it is necessary to demonize white people.” Not since Christopher Caldwell’s The Age of Enlightenment has a volume been so explicit. Imagine a manuscript by the late Samuel T. Francis being discovered and published by a major New York house. On Murray goes, detailing the assault on the West within three countries: the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada. The war extends to the literary canon, to history, to religion, to monuments and statues and public buildings. It reached peak barbarism following the death of George Floyd. “It seemed that American history in the round was being erased,” Murray remarked, writing in his English inflections. It’s one of the many solid blows the author lands. How does the United States survive George Floyd? June 2020 didn’t happen in a vacuum. Neither did 1987. The latter was the year when the war began in wicked earnest, with the “hey, ho, Western culture has to go” war cry at Stanford University in California, one calling for the end of that school’s required Western civilization

Murray is correct away from the man they defeated in that the assault on monuments and in World War II. The Anglosphere statues represents a final frontier in is left defenseless. destroying the Anglosphere nations. Murray asks the toughest He won’t tell you that his conservative question of all. “What can the colleagues are just as guilty as Antifa West do with such a catalogue and Black Lives Matter.

former senator from Georgia, also high on the left/right hate list. Russell was candid in his opposition to civil rights, but he did so by raising constitutional concerns. Russell was instrumental in rebuilding America’s defenses after World War II. He also defused the controversies caused by Harry Truman’s firing of Douglas MacArthur (a mob was set to storm the White House) and Joe McCarthy’s red-hunting crusade. Lyndon Johnson once said that if a secret ballot were taken among senators on who would make the best president, Russell would win in a landslide. That’s why the long-forgotten senator is honored. Second, a political party. Will continental Europe suffer America’s fate? It may, but millions of its peoples will go down fighting. This is due to the existence of numerous populist parties, including those in France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, Norway and even Sweden. They stand for closed borders and traditional marriage. They also cherish their respective countries’ history, rather than burning them down. Such parties are an impossibility in the Anglosphere. Closed borders, traditional marriage only, love of a European heritage apparently would violate norms of liberal democracy. The Anglosphere is being crushed by the weight of its own history.

A Cybersecurity Expert’s Top Travel Tips
W
ith an estimated 60 percent of Americans planning at least one trip over the next three months, hackers have roughly 200,000,000 projected tourists to prey on. Lookout’s Cyber Security Expert, Hank Schless, shares how these cyber-attacks usually capitalize on travelers who are often overwhelmed or distracted when in unfamiliar environments, like airports and cafes.
Public Wi-Fi Connections
This picture perfect Colonial style home at 25 Anchor Ln. in Levittown sold on July 15 for $775,000. It has four bedrooms and three bathrooms. It is on a landscaped lot and has a semi-in-ground pool. The home has been expanded and updated, perfect for entertaining. It has a new chef’s kitchen. The main level is spacious and has an open concept. Storage has been added and there is a main level bedroom and full bathroom that has been freshly painted. The second level has a full dormer plus an expansion and features a stunning primary bedroom suite with a walk-in closet and a luxurious spa-like bathroom. There are two additional bedrooms upstairs, an updated full bath, full attic and an upstairs laundry. The backyard is fully fenced in and has a pool and two new decks. The home has updated electric, a newer roof, siding and sprinklers.
Although many airports offer free Wi-Fi connectivity, you should make sure that you join the official airport network and not a similar network that is configured to trick travelers into giving up their usernames and passwords. • Attackers have been known to set up fake networks—with obvious but convincing names like ‘Starbucks_Guest_WiFi’. • Once you connect, they’ll gain access to sensitive information, including your login credentials, emails and messages. • In order to protect yourself from Wi-Fi threats, alter your device’s settings so that it does not automatically connect to nearby networks, which the Lookout app does automatically.
Social Awareness
While on the go, travelers rely on power outlets and USB cords to keep their mobile device’s battery charged. Attackers can exploit USB chargers by loading malware onto them that infects your device the second you plug it in. Always be aware of your surroundings. • If someone approaches you and offers their USB charging cord, it is best to decline. • Always travel with your personal USB cords and plug your charger directly into an electrical socket (versus USB port). • The easiest place for a scammer to steal or hack your phone is in crowded areas—so never leave your phone or device unattended and only let people you know “borrow” your devices.
SMS and Email Travel Updates
This beautifully maintained mid-block Levittown residence at 23 Hilltop Rd. features four bedrooms and two bathrooms. It has a formal dining room, and an eat-in-kitchen. The first floor family room has a wood burning fireplace. There is also a multi-use first floor room and a laundry room. The home has three-zone heating and the whole house is wired for a sound system and a home generator. The yard is fenced in and has a large shed. The driveway is private. This home sold on July 18 for $685,000.
It’s important to be on guard for travel-related email, text and social media scams as well. Attackers may try to steal a traveler’s credentials through phishing campaigns that pretend to be an airline, credit card company or TSA. • Here’s how it works: A scammer will send a message telling the recipient that their TSA PreCheck needs to be renewed, but the link in the renewal email leads to a fake site where hackers can accept payment and steal a victim’s personal information. • Although the TSA sends renewal reminder texts and emails, travelers should always go directly to the TSA website for information on their existing accounts. —Lookout (cybersecurity company)

Raising Awareness With The Big Climate Thing Activism at the heart of three-day Forest Hills Stadium music festival DAVE GIL de RUBIO
I
dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com
n the face of vocal deniers, climate change is wreaking havoc, be it through raging wildfires racing through Spain, Portugal, Italy and Greece. Or through harsh heatwaves descending on most of the United States and Europe. Paris and London recently recorded their highest all-time temperatures with meteorologists not predicting any immediate relief in sight. And just in time to heighten awareness is the upcoming Big Climate Thing: A Concert For People and the Planet—a three-day concert series set to be held from September 16 through 18 at Forest Hills Stadium. Sponsored by Climate Control Presents (CCP), fans will be treated to sets by a number of high-profile artists including Khruangbin, Haim, The Roots, Sheryl Crow, The Flaming Lips, Gary Clark Jr. and Courtney Barnett. The point is to raise awareness, accountability and action, and to inspire real-time solutions surrounding the global climate crisis by connecting to concert-goers through the transformative power of music. For CCP Partner and Head of Artist and Media Relations Perry Serpa, this multi-pronged approach is an effective way of conveying an important and existential message across. “The goal of featuring this multi-generational lineup of artists who are generally climate-concerned music makers is to raise awareness around the climate emergency,” he explained. “There is climate programming and lots of onsite activations and curated content. Most of these artists, at least to some extent, have been vocal around the climate change issue. They’ve talked to their own audiences about climate, so this is an opportunity to have these folks come together in a communal way and be there for the planet.” Serpa, alongside partners Kurt Langer and Paul Biedrzycki, founded CCP in 2020 and pulled together a group of music industry veterans and activists along the way. The organization’s goal is to work within popular culture to create awareness, accountability and action around the issue of climate change by producing content and events that engage mainstream audiences and connect them on a personal level to the climate crisis, leading them to immediately accessible and actionable solutions. And while CCP is only a couple of years old, longtime friends and music industry veterans Serpa and Langerhad been conjuring up the idea of what became the Big Climate Thing as far back as 2016. “Kurt has existed more in the activist space, springboarding from his experience working with the Tibetan Freedom Concerts,” Serpa said. “I have to say that inspired me for years to come as well. I think that we came together to do
this because it was sort of at a point where our conversations weren’t really much more than reminiscing about what we went through with the TFCs 20 years ago. And then the regime change in 2016 inspired a certain creative response and a sense of activism within us. As time went on, it became clear to us that after [Trump] pulled out of the Paris Climate Accords, we felt we really had to do something about this from that point forward. It went from the back of our minds to the front of mind.” The two friends spent the bulk of the Trump Administration trying to hone their ideas about what to do, while having numerous conversations with people they both knew across the music industry. Langer brought in Paul Biedrzycki, a filmmaker he’d worked on a cinematic climate project with, as a partner. And just as plans were coalescing to hold a climate event to coincide with the 2020 Democratic and Republican National Conventions, COVID-19 struck. And while Serpa and his band of climate activists were as thrown as anyone else by the pandemic, the timing proved to be a form of kismet. “[With the pandemic], everybody was forced
underground and it was a year-and-a-half exercise in woodshedding and figuring out who we were,” Serpa said. “It wound up being a blessing in disguise because we really needed to do those things and explore who we were as an organization, figure out what we wanted to get done and how we wanted to get it done. It ended up creating a clarity within us and giving us time to figure out how to work together.” Among the initiatives CCP came up with was the creation of BigUp, a digital platform set to launch later this year. This app creates a place where artists and audiences, creators and consumers can converge in a non-judgmental community to take action on climate change. Included in a user’s feed will be hints, nudges, challenges, inspirational content and measurable goals that connect personal interests to simple actions that can have sustained impact. In addition, CCP established The Big Climate Lab, a first-of-its-kind innovation studio focused on leveraging extensive research and development to catalyze sector change within the music industry. It's a space for veterans from the touring and festival industry, research scientists and sustainability experts from other disciplines to determine a set of transformational goals for the decarbonization of live music. The collaborative drive at the heart of this movement led to CCP naming EarthPercent as the official charity partner of The Big Climate Thing. EarthPercent is a U.S.-based nonprofit organization originally founded in the UK by Brian Eno that provides a simple way for artists and the music industry to support those at the forefront of climate action while also reducing music’s impact on the planet. The two organizations are working in partnership to create holistic, comprehensive and impactful opportunities for those in music to take bold action toward ending the climate crisis. One of the ways was by picking Forest Hills Stadium to host the Big Climate Thing due to its low carbon footprint thanks to its location near a mass transportation hub that serves multiple subway, bus and train lines. Tickets for The Big Climate Thing are currently on sale with three-day passes starting at $268, plus applicable taxes and fees. Single-day passes are priced at $119. Serpa, who curated the show, was very cognizant about tapping into musical synergy and used another socially conscious musical event, 1979’s No Nukes concert at Madison Square Garden for inspiration. “I personally have always gravitated towards this idea of using music as a tool for social change and social impact,” he said. “When I started working with [Forest Hills music promoter] Mike Luba putting this together and thinking about the talent, running the show and what the sort of ideal feeling would be, I kept coming back to No Nukes and how that felt like it was really relevant, spontaneous and effective.” Visit www.thebigclimatething.com for tickets and more information.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR AMERICA GETS AN 'F' ON GUN CONTROL BUT NEW YORK GETS AN 'A': LET’S RE-EXAMINE THAT 'A' GRADE In his July 13 “Inside Politics” column, Jerry Kremer touts the most recent accomplishments of the NYS Legislature and Governor Hochul’s gun control legislation, giving it an outstanding “A.” All of these new laws were immediately precipitated by the U.S. Supreme Courts ruling declaring New York’s restrictive gun carry law unconstitutional and invalid. So how did these “A” worthy laws merit such a high grade? Let’s examine them from the real world viewpoint. Not one of these “A” laws passed will prevent another mass shooting at any school or places of assembly. Gun-free zones have proven not to prevent school shootings as the criminals intent on causing death and carnage know there is no chance of being confronted by another armed law abiding individual at these locations. So the “A” worthy Governor Hochul solution was simply to add to the list of locations where no guns are allowed, including schools, Times Square, hospitals, places of worship, businesses and a
ludicrous long list of other “now safe” locations. Criminals do not follow the rules or the law, nor do they give a damn about these “sensitive locations.” Unfortunately, Mr. Kremer didn’t actually read the Safe Act of 2013. This was the prior end all “A” worthy solution to gun violence by Hochul’s original boss, Governor Cuomo. The Safe Act was his solution and response to the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. The Safe Act did not ban assault weapons nor did it prevent future school shootings. Just more feel good rushed legislation that turns out was poorly written and resulted in several immediate modifications after it was passed in a late-night session and bullied into law by Cuomo. Despite Mr. Kremer’s beliefs that these laws do not “deprive the average gun owner from owning a gun for protection, hunting or related uses…” he is wrong. No one under 21 can purchase a semi-automatic rifle and the latest laws say you must first obtain a permit to
purchase and own one. The recent Supreme Court ruling against New York’s licensing requirements was all about overly restrictive requirements, and now Governor Hochul wants your social media accounts for review to see if you can qualify as being of “good character.” and in addition each applicant must now be interviewed in person by a judge before being issued a permit. Anyone with common sense can see that these laws are intentional violations of all New York residents’ First and Second Amendment rights, and were written and passed with the explicit intention of giving the U.S. Supreme Court a defiant middle finger, and to continue making it extremely frustrating and next to impossible to obtain a license or permit. If the latest legislation was truly intended to help reduce crime, ask yourself why was there no remedy to undo the clearly flawed bail reform that has created a revolving door for criminals to avoid accountability. If the criminals were actually charged for breaking
the law we would all be safer. The same politicians who passed these feel good “A” worthy laws are the same ones who created bail reform, allowing for the creation of the ongoing rapid spike in crime. The truth is that the number one cause of death by firearm across America is suicide. The NRA is not the most powerful lobby in Washington DC. That honor belongs to Big Pharma, with the NRA an extremely distant 996th. Don’t be fooled by more feel good “we did something legislation” regarding firearms out of Albany or DC. Vote this November only for the candidates that want a return to the law and upholding it. Stop allowing the criminals from being categorized as the victims and get justice for the true victims of crime—law abiding citizens and businesses. You have the power to make change for the better through your vote. —Kevin D. Hassett The writer is the president of the Retired Police Association of the State of New York Inc.

RABBI MOSHE WEISBLUM And so, we roll from generation to generation, setting goals and objectives, running fast until we get tired and fade away. Fortunately, more and more people are beginning to realize that riding this never-ending hamster wheel is not for them, that chasing after their own tails is pointless. How can we conceive of a world without competition, though? If competition ceased, the world would go silent for lack of trying. It follows, then, that it is not the principle of competition itself that needs to change, but the values around which we compete.
If the competition we embark upon is not egotistical in nature; that is, if it’s measured not by how much the individual can benefit personally, but by how much each individual can benefit the greater good, then the act of competition will be positive, and rewarding for everyone. Each and every person is intrinsically special. If we learn how to use our unique capabilities correctly, then we will reach a state of good and complementary competition. Proper use of a person’s talents means striving for a situation that will be good for them and also good for others. A company that embraces the contributions of every member is one that will be successful and realize its full potential. Why should you work for the benefit of others? Here there is room for great introspection. Perhaps so that others will respect and appreciate you. Or, you may choose to do so for a more lofty reason, such that even if no one knows about your actions, you will

Positive Competition Modern-day media constantly challenges us to be “the best”—the best parent, the most successful provider and the most attuned spouse. Consequently, we often feel the need to compete in order to show that we are better than others. The question is, when is this competition healthy and when is it not? The truth of the matter is that a person’s ego naturally requires him or her to supersede those around them. Without that striving, they find no justification for their existence and cannot figure out what they live for. As a result, most of the effort people put into being the best is for competitive purposes only. The rationale is that stinging the eyes of others will lead to some contentment, no matter how fleeting. If a person recognizes this drive to out-do others as a negative influence that stimulates but enslaves them, he may make some progress in this area. But once fulfilled, the person comes to identify with this feeling of success and begins to feel that he or she is not the fullest version of themselves unless they are the best.

continue to behave admirably for the good of society. In the highest form of the ideal, a person would do good towards others in order to get closer to the higher power that operates all of creation, the one power that connects all the details of our reality to a seamless internal system that runs on reciprocity. It is the very identification with this divine attribute—pure love and generosity—that fills a person with supreme satisfaction. When one reaches this degree of spiritual development, they wind up in constant competition with themselves, asking, how much more can I transcend the narrow egoism instilled in me and be more like my complete and eternal Creator? The more someone compares their attributes to His qualities, the more divine spirituality will fill that person’s soul. The few who have achieved this say that there is no more worthwhile endeavor, so good luck in your pursuit of divine character development.

Repeal Of Bail Reform Needed To Stop Pandemic Of Lawlessness Every few days there’s a new horror story of a violent crime and an innocent civilian getting hurt— or worse—thanks to the “Get out of Jail Free” Cashless Bail law passed by John Brooks, Kathy Hochul and Albany Democrats. It is no surprise that residents are feeling increasingly unsafe. A recent Siena College poll found that more than 75 percent of New Yorkers were now worried that they would be the victim of a violent crime. Even here in Nassau County, where we have one of the besttrained and best-run police departments in the nation thanks to our commitment to law and order, major crimes are up 60 percent since January 1, 2021 alone. Our communities are plagued with catalytic converter thefts, residential burglaries and a variety of crimes that threaten our safety. Albany Democrats’ response to the “pandemic of lawlessness” their pro-criminal agenda has created? Nothing. Their disastrous bail reforms nearly cost a local police officer his life. A serial carjacker was arrested, given an ankle monitor and then immediately released back onto the street thanks to cashless bail. He waited four days for his state-issued ankle monitor to die out and then went out to commit more crimes. Detective Ryan Hines caught this career criminal driving yet another stolen car and when he approached, the thug slammed

In fact, in New York City alone, some 3,000 criminals that were released due to bail reform went on to commit 9,000 new crimes, according to the NYPD. Bail reform has also helped spike the increase of drugs in our neighborhoods and schools. That’s because judges are now forced to allow cashless bail for dealers caught selling narcotics. These dealers are then immediately back on the streets peddling their harmful illegal substances. Just last month, right in our own backyard, a dealer out on cashless bail was re-arrested during an investigation into multiple overdoses, including one fatality

After five surgeries, he is thankfully able to walk again, but was forced to retire due to his injuries. Had John Brooks and the radical Albany Democrats not changed New York’s bail laws back in 2019, the court would have had the power to keep this thug in jail and this life-threatening situation likely would never have happened.

If a community doesn’t feel safe, nothing else matters. It is time for Brooks, Hochul and the radical Democrats running Albany to stop coddling criminals and protect kids and communities by repealing their disastrous bail reform laws. This pandemic of lawlessness they’ve sparked will continue to spread until they stand up to preserve law and order, or until we elect responsible leaders in November who will.

hen Manhasset needed a goal to stop the opponent’s momentum, it could count on No. 17. When every game mattered, Alexis Morton rose to the occasion. The senior, the epitome of a sparkplug, scored a good chunk of her team-leading 102 points (58 goals, 44 assist) in the six playoff matches as the Indians claimed their first Class C state title since 2018. Manhasset won the state semifinal and final by a combined score of 37-12 as Morton scored six goals and two assists in the semis against Albany-area Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake, and two goals and five assists in the final against Honeoye Falls-Lima of the Rochester area. Committed to Division I Richmond, Morton has played varsity since her
freshman year, when she scored five goals as the Indians lost the Long Island title by one goal. The pandemic erased the 2020 season, and Morton came into her own as a junior, scoring 44 goals to go along with 19 assists. Once again Manhasset fell one goal short in the Long Island title match. A recruiting site, connectlax.com, had this to say about Morton: “Leader on field to help team succeed, excellent field vision, passionate, coachable, always wanting to improve, hard working, disciplined, three-sport varsity athlete—lacrosse, tennis (All-County selection), winter track.” Honors/Awards: University of North Carolina Winter Camp All-Star, Duke Winter Camp All-Star, Under Armour 150, Selected for Women’s Professional Lacrosse League (WPLL) Futures camp.
Played club lacrosse for the Long Island Liberty, coached by Manhasset Lacrosse Hall of Famer Danielle Gallagher, who said, “Alexis is a Top 2022 recruit! Her ability to create opportunities for herself and others leaves her in a class of her own. Her creative moves, strong dodges, and ability to make others better has enabled her to stand out and garner attention from numerous top collegiate coaches.” Manhasset coach Meghan Clarke stated, “Alexis is a shifty attacker with a strong ability to finish. Her powerful dodges allows her to get past top defenders. She has great shot placement and quick hands. Alexis works extremely hard on the re-defend, which allows for fast break opportunities.” Additional information from www. connectlax.com

As we walked to the nearby grocery store to pick up bread, cheese and turkey to make sandwiches for Glacier National Park, we saw dogs walking around everywhere. It seems residents just let their dogs wander around, which was really fun to see. The next morning, we were picked up at the nearby hotel by Sun Tours tour company, which is led by members of the Blackfeet community. The park was like nothing I’ve ever seen before, with peaked mountains made of sedimentary rocks. The tour guide also shared with us parts of the park that are special to the Blackfeet community, including Chief Mountain, which represents a Blackfeet legend.

battery. It will deplete if you use it, and it will deplete if you don’t. So you may as well apply yourself, without worrying too much about whether you’re wasting it on silly things. Trust that there’s an intelligence at work. You’ll gravitate toward worthy pursuits.
Solution: 17 Letters
WORD FIND
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Conventional wisdom suggests you can’t solve the problem if you don’t know what it is. This will turn out to be untrue. You’ll be drawn to making things comfortable, fair, lovely and healthy. Your improvements will solve problems you couldn’t have articulated before this process. Everything is connected.
Let’s dance
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your luck will not be obvious. There’s no big win or small prize, not even a sense of progress or justice to acknowledge. That’s precisely why it is so meaningful to stop, take stock and celebrate, without reason or qualification, all that is going on for you these days. You cherish the preciousness of life.
Solution: 17 Letters
CANCER (June 22-July 22). To have a choice in whom you follow puts you in the minority of humans in the history of humanity. While many blindly ascribe to the ideologies of their group, you’ll put more thought into your choices, striving for objectivity and weighing the morality of your options. Your consciousness will inspire others.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It’s no mystery how being with the right company makes for a better experience. When you’re relaxed, your perspective shifts. Lovely details float up to the surface of your awareness, making the moments more joyful. Often the right company will be just you, as you’re quite comfortable with yourself. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Just because a person is in a position of power doesn’t mean they possess a talent beyond your own. Timing, nepotism and any number of other reasons can contribute to a rise in status. This week, it would be a mistake to let anything intimidate you or stop you from believing in your abilities. Keep your eye on the prize. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There was a time when you wanted something very particular and it just didn’t happen. You’ll never know how things would have developed had you gotten everything you wanted back there, but it certainly wouldn’t be as great as what’s happening now. When things don’t go to plan, you now assume it’s for the best. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Many equate success with abundance, though they aren’t always synonymous. There’s always a point in which too much becomes cumbersome, an obstacle rather than a boon. You’re wary of the envy one attracts by showing off. You’ll be luckier this week as you travel light and keep things lean. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Running can feel more like flying than being in a jet. Even though you’ve had great success feeling out your options, things don’t always feel like what they are. It’s a week to use analytical resources, including your senses and, more importantly, the hard data. You’re favored to make your best decision yet. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). To help those you love is easy. And almost anyone is nice enough to those they want something from or are attracted to. But you’ve been known to give yourself to people you want nothing from at all, a testament to your big heart and a behavior you’ll repeat plenty this week. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ve worked hard and used your resources well. The only thing missing is a little faith. Resources seem limited, but there’s a lot more coming. Loosen your grip, relax your thinking and let playful creativity into your dealings. That’s when you’ll see how to arrange things for maximum success and abundance.
THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS
The only thing stopping you from getting what you want is the other thing you want. At the start of this solar return, your desires are in direct competition with one another, but as soon as you figure out which you want more it’s smooth sailing from there. You will actually feel a wonderful liberation as you give up all things opposing your goal. Later, if you want to come back to the other one, you can. A presentation you give will land you new and interesting work with a bright team.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). As you focus strictly on what it takes to get your special project to the next place, much of what’s going on outside your project will no longer concern you. You’ll be liberated from worrying about what others think of what you’re doing. The reactions and responses of others hardly seem worth ruminating over.

Famous Hand
West dealer. East-West vulnerable. NORTH ♠A ♥ 10 6 5 ♦ A J 10 3 ♣9 6 4 3 2 WEST EAST ♠873 ♠J52 ♥A J 9 7 2 ♥K Q 4 3 ♦— ♦8742 ♣ A J 10 8 7 ♣K Q SOUTH ♠ K Q 10 9 6 4 ♥8 ♦KQ965 ♣5 The bidding: West North East South 1♥ Pass 3♥ 4♠ Pass Pass Dble Opening lead — nine of hearts. Brilliancies are not always rewarded. For example, take this deal from the match between Taiwan and the United States at the 1979 world team championship. The U.S. North-South pair at the first table got to four spades doubled as shown, and West, CheHung Kuo, made the remarkable opening lead of the nine of hearts! After East, Patrick Huang, won the trick with the queen, he recognized that the purpose of his partner’s underlead of the ace of hearts was to get a ruff. Huang also recognized
that West’s lead of an unnecessarily high heart was a suit-preference signal, asking for the return of the higher-ranking of the two remaining side suits. Accordingly, Huang returned the deuce of diamonds, transmitting a suit-preference signal of his own. West ruffed the diamond and, obeying East’s signal, returned the seven of clubs! West’s second underlead of an ace was likewise successful. East won with the queen and led another diamond, and West ruffed to put the contract down one. But alas, this brilliant defense by the Taiwanese East-West pair was more than offset by what occurred at the second table, where the U.S. West wound up playing at five hearts doubled. Ordinarily, he would have gone down one, losing the first three spade tricks. But, luckily for declarer, North’s singleton spade was the ace, which he led, and that was the only trick scored by the defenders. So the outcome was that the American East-West pair at the second table made five hearts doubled with an overtrick for a score of 1,050 points. This was 950 points more than the Taiwanese pair at the first table had scored with their extraordinary defense, providing ample proof that brilliancies are not always adequately rewarded.
Tomorrow: The exploratory approach.

Vincent Smith General Store Receives Grants From Port Washington B.I.D.
he Port Washington Business Improvement District (B.I.D) welcomes Vincent Smith General Store with grants for new commercial tenant and new sign grant. Vincent Smith School is an independent, grade 1-12 school specializing in students with learning disabilities or other language-based learning challenges. It’s located at 322 Port Washington Blvd. and has been a mainstay of Port Washington since its founding in 1924. The General Store is an extension of the school’s vocational program, known as VEEP (Vocational Explorations in Education Program). High school students who might not be college-bound learn on-the-job skills like customer service, product management, and other retail job skills, in addition to their regular high school curriculum. The store is designed as a small boutique and sells unique home decor items, original art, jewelry, toys, and general merchandise. Student and sales associate-in-training, Danny M., explains, ““It’s a really awesome store. It’s important for us to learn how to talk to customers and I like learning how to make sales in a real store. It’s fun to work there.” The Vincent Smith General Store is located at 189 Main St. and is open
Wednesday-Saturday, 11:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. For more information about the school or the store, call Lynda Bekore at 516-365-4900. Holly Byrne, Executive Director of Port Washington B.I.D. says, “It is an honor to support a business like the Vincent Smith General Store and welcome their staff-intraining to the District.” About the Port Washington Business Improvement District: The Greater Port Washington B.I.D. is committed to improving the economic and business health of the Port Washington commercial area through marketing, promotions, physical improvements and enhanced municipal services for all those who live, work and visit our community. Eligible businesses, both new and established within the defined business district, can apply for grants for funding to assist with costs of improvements to the facade of the place of business and/or signage. Guidelines and applications, along with additional resources for business owners, can be found on the Port Washington B.I.D. website under the Business Resource heading. Inquiries can also be directed to the Port Washington B.I.D. Office at 516-883-8890. —Submitted by the Port Washington B.I.D.

Growing Love In Port Washington HANNAH DEVLIN portwashingtonnews@antonmediagroup.com
F
or the past five years, the Growing Love Community Garden has served Port Washington residents. The garden not only serves as a connection to nature, but serves as a way to connect the community and support each other. The garden opened in May 2018 after a number of Port Washington residents decided to come together and create an outdoor space that would support its community. Erika Stehl, president and co-founder of the Growing Love Community Garden, said that the inspiration for the garden was the idea of healthy and home-made food. “I always grew up with gardens,” said Stehl, “and I was always surprised that we didn’t have more of a community garden presence here on Long Island.” Stehl has lived in Port Washington for the past 24 years, and after taking a trip to California in 2017 and seeing the flourishing community gardens on the West Coast, she became determined to build one in town. Over the next few months, Stehl–with help from other town residents–formed a not-for-profit organization, received a grant, designed the space and hosted a kick-off event. Finally in May 2018, the garden opened for planting. With so much economic diversity in town, many town residents do not have access to their own outdoor space. The Growing Love Community Garden attempts to bridge this gap and allow every resident the experience of having their own plot to grow on. The garden consists of 46 plots that are loaned for three years at a time, but volunteers are welcome to help build, harvest and clean up regardless of whether they own a plot. However, the garden’s outreach did not stop there. Throughout the past five years, the garden has continued to grow, as seen by the expansion of the Memorial Garden and the Children’s Garden. Additionally, there is a vertical garden that grows food and herbs that are donated to the food pantry at Our Lady of Fatima Church. “Our mission is connecting our community to healthy food, nature and each other,” said Stehl. In addition to the physical expansions of the garden, the garden has introduced a number of events intended to support the community. With collaborations with businesses like OhMyGoodness, Bach to Rock and Be The Rainbow, the garden aims to support local businesses and give back to

the community. These events are open to anyone who registers, not just plot holders. “[The events are] really about connecting to the community and supporting one another,” said Stehl. Located on Manorhaven Boulevard, directly behind Our Lady of Fatima parking lot,
the garden serves as an oasis on a bustling street. Despite the busyness that surrounds the garden, the space allows its patrons to connect with nature and the environment. From its inception, the Growing Love Community Garden has been a true community effort. With the help of friends,
residents and volunteers, Stehl has been able to make her vision come to life and provide Port Washington with a unique and intimate outdoor space. For anyone interested in donating to the garden or requesting a plot, more information can be found at www.growinglovepw.com.

Port Washington’s First Annual Sustainable Garden Tour Is A Success R
Residents Given Inspiration on How They Can Create Water-Efficient Landscapes
eWild Long Island joined forces with the Port Washington Water District (PWWD) to launch the peninsula’s first ever Sustainable Garden Tour on June 18. Approximately 100 residents registered to tour six different homes and gardens who showcased how native plants and pollinators require less water to survive, while still providing beautiful landscapes. The event served as yet another step in the PWWD’s “Do It For Port!” campaign, which has provided the community with numerous opportunities to learn about water conservation and protection throughout 2022. “It was a pleasure to team up with the Port Washington Water District in putting this event together,” said Raju Rajan, president of the board at ReWild Long Island. “Promoting sustainable landscaping through native plants is our chief focus at ReWild Long Island, and we hope being able to provide residents with a firsthand demonstration on how their gardens can be beautiful, while still being climate and water-friendly, will generate more ReWilders.” “The Sustainable Garden Tour has been one of the most highly anticipated district events in recent memory, and we could not be happier with how it went,” said PWWD Commissioner Mindy Germain. “We are tremendously grateful to ReWild Long Island for their partnership in this event. They bring so much knowledge and expertise to
PWWD Sustainable Garden Tour. (Contributed photo) the table. Seeing so many residents come out, show such dedication to water conservation, and commit to bringing sustainable practices to their own gardens is something of which we at the district are very proud.” Upon arriving at the ReWild Garden at Dodge as the tour’s starting point, residents were provided with a map of the homes on the trail, a plant list, and welcome gift. Each garden on the tour represented a different benefit of sustainable gardening, including providing food for pollinators, growing organic fruits or vegetables, attracting birds,
providing a dog-friendly environment, dynamic use of small spaces, composting tips and low irrigation usage. While the many gardens on display were very different, they all make exceptional usage of native plants. Native plants require far less water to thrive than non-native plants, making them the perfect foundation of any beautiful, water-efficient garden. The PWWD’s “Do It For Port!” campaign has been a crucial aspect of the district’s public outreach programming throughout 2022. Through a series of
webinars, in-person events and now the Sustainable Garden Tour, the campaign shows people their role in water conservation. To learn more about the PWWD “Do It For Port!” campaign and its past events, visit www.pwwd.org/conservation/ do-it-for-port-educational-events. Residents are encouraged to visit www.

‘No Regrets:’ Suozzi Looks Back On Primary Campaign JOSEPH SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com
D
oes Thomas R. Suozzi’s disappointing third place in the Democratic Party’s gubernatorial primary mean the end of his political career? The run was a culmination of a long career in New York politics. Although his campaign was able to advertise widely, Suozzi finished with only 96,270 votes, finishing behind both the winner, Governor Kathy Hochul and Jumaane Williams. Hochul easily won the right to represent the party in the November election, gaining 67 percent of the vote. Williams received 152,583 votes or 20 percent. Suozzi’s numbers gave him 12.6 percent. “We lost the campaign, but we ran a campaign that was true to who I am and I am proud of the issues we talked about,” Suozzi said. “I have no regrets and am grateful for so much—the wonderful New Yorkers I met; everyone who supported our efforts; and the best campaign team I’ve worked with.” The campaign was the second time that Suozzi has run for governor. In 2006, he ran in the primary, finishing behind the eventual winner, Elliot Spitzer, who later resigned from office following a prostitution ring scandal. In his ads, Suozzi raised the stakes in his primary run, claiming that “everything I’ve done in my career has prepared for hits particular job at this particular time.” A native of Glen Cove, Suozzi was heir to a political dynasty. Both his father, Joseph and uncle, Vincent, served as Glen Cove mayors. Suozzi graduated from both Boston College and Fordham University. Within a decade, he was mayor of Glen Cove. The city couldn’t hold him. In 2001, he ran for the Democratic nomination for Nassau County executive. Suozzi bucked the party establishment. That year, Nassau County Democrats backed Thomas DiNapoli, a New York State Assemblyman and current State Comptroller. When Nassau County was forced to create a county legislature, DiNapoli spearheaded the Democrats’ uphill climb to win a majority in that body. It fell short, but county Democrats felt that DiNapoli had earned the right to become the party’s standard bearer for county executive.
The Suozzi family and friends relax after the campaign. To the right of Suozzi is his running mate, Diana Reyna. (Image via Facebook) While the party formally endorsed DiNapoli, Suozzi upset their plans by defeating the Mineola native in the primary. It was a good year to run for county executive. Republican Party mismanagement had devastated the county’s finances so much so that the budget process was placed under independent control. Whoever won the Democratic Party nomination that year was favored to win the general election. Suozzi ended up winning the primary and the general election, becoming the county’s first Democratic chief executive in 30 years. Suozzi’s first term won praise for fixing the county’s budget, cutting spending and reducing borrowing and debt, resulting in accumulated surpluses. In 2005, Governing Magazine named Suozzi one of its Public Officials of the Year, calling him “the man who spearheaded Nassau County, New York’s, remarkable turnaround from the brink of fiscal disaster.” The Glen Cove native was re-elected in 2005 and promptly ran for governor the next year. In 2009, Suozzi ran for a third term as county executive, but was defeated by Edward P. Mangano. In 2013, Suozzi was persuaded to challenge Mangano in a rematch, which the incumbent won. It appeared that Suozzi’s career was over.
But the man has always enjoyed politics. As luck would have it, Rep. Steve Israel (D-Huntington) decided not to run for re-election in 2016. Suozzi saw his opening and was elected to Congress that year, winning re-election in both 2018 and 2020. The statehouse again beckoned. Suozzi would forgo a run for a fourth term, opting again for the governor’s race. The year 2022 is likely to be a Republican year. However, Suozzi’s old Fourth Congressional still retains a Democratic Party edge. Either way, the man wasn’t alone. Two other Nassau County congressmen, Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) and Kathleen Rice (D-Garden City) also retired from that body. As with Suozzi, Zeldin ran for governor, winning the Republican Party’s primary to challenge Hochul. When Suozzi first made noises about running for governor, New York Post columnist Frederick Dicker reported on the ambitions of the mayor of “little Glen Cove.” Was that it? Is Glen Cove too small and too isolated to create a base from which to run for governor? Zeldin is a Long Islander who won his party’s nomination. However, he is an underdog in the fall campaign. In recent years, Long Islanders have run for statewide office: Rick Lazio took
on Hillary Clinton is the latter’s successful 2000 senate race. Kathleen Rice ran for attorney general in 2010. That year, Lazio ran for the GOP’s governor’s nomination. Both lost, even though Lazio was favored in his contest against Carl Paladino. Jerry Kremer, who writes the “Inside Politics” column for Anton Media Group, analyzed Suozzi’s campaign. “I don’t attribute Tom’s loss to his being from Long Island per se,” Kremer said. “He is bright and energetic, but he failed to carve out a road to winning. His emphasis was on crime and crime didn’t really play to his talents of being able to govern. I also think that there was no connection with the average person on the street. I think he should have been the [Bill] Clinton type candidate saying, ‘I feel your pain.’ Being up against a person who has moved quickly to establish her credentials as a person who can govern made it more uphill plus having over $30 million in the bank was big advantage. Tom’s potential going forward is very limited. There will be a primary for U.S. Senator in two years as an option. I know he worked hard and furiously but overall his campaign just didn’t connect.” For now, Suozzi will continue his work as the representative for New York’s Fourth Congressional District.

The Harborside Residents Arts Collaborate At Cedarmere
I
n June, a Summer Solstice Arts collaboration celebrated the arts through contemporary dance, live music, sculpture and poetry. The event, at Cedarmere estate in Roslyn, was presented by Friends of Cedarmere and featured music by Steve Finklestein, Edgar Mills, Premik Russell Tubbs, Douglas Baldwin, Tracy Hamilton and Carl Safina, with choreography by Nancy Brier and Nicole Spoletic, sculpture by John Cino, and poetry by the Harborside senior Poets, coordinated by Tracy Warzer. Teaching artist and actor coach Karen DeMauro provided performance coaching for The Harborside poets, who presented the collective poem which seven residents
wrote. Among the poet collaborators are Joan Rauch, Ellen Greene, Trudy Ruchman, Joyce Cooper, Carol Silverberg, Bob Curtis, Chelly Dorfman and Tracy Warzer. The crowd cheered after the four-minute poem, entitled Summer Memories was read. It was followed by contemporary dance and live music performances in the garden of the beautiful Cedarmere estate, home of William Cullen Bryant, just before sunset, in celebration of the summer solstice. Bryant had intended his home and water-front gardens to be a space to share the Arts in gatherings such as these, and the Harborside residents are ready for the next collaboration. —Submitted by The Harborside
Summer Memories Harborside Poetry Collaboration summer memories touch the heart and spirit I could see, feel, and taste the happiness of summer I heard laughter and shouts of delight in summer there is joy in nature at its fullest boating up the Hudson River swimming in deep lakes the water rushed in to fill the locks I was touched by the beauty of the mountains and trees and in the fragrance of a garden, vibrant with orange daylilies and pastel saucer-sized peonies there were excursions to lakes adorned with water lilies father’s fascination with all living creatures, aviaries for canaries, a sun-drenched porch, lined with tanks of tropical fish my squirmy bait worms continued to wiggle long after being cut into bite-sized pieces a squeamish experience for the novice fisherwoman mother’s delicious dinner transformed our “catch of the day” summer brought sleep-away camp bungalows with ten little cots and ten little girls running with excitement we swam in the crystal-clear water of the lake we sat baking in the sun, and we didn’t care how long summer will always be a time of wonder days that came and went so quickly we left our city apartments to be transformed by fresh air and farm life pigs were sloshing in the mud cows were milked each night we collected eggs from chickens I awakened to the sound of horses neighing, cows mooing and birds singing I touched the icy water racing in a stream after a rainstorm I tasted the farm-fresh corn and tomatoes each day I smelled the freshly cut hay atop a wagon it delivered us from the fields to the barn I felt free, timeless, and joyful
A dancer performing at the summer celebration.
there were family meccas to a beach house somewhere a fully loaded station wagon…6 kids in tow ice cream chairs on the roof rack sandy footprints tried to be mine until stolen by the next wave tumbling chimes of shells, laughter, and seagull chatter I felt big as the sky and as small as a grain of sand I smelled the summer in the soles of my Keds, which peddled me on my bike to see the world in a day—every day—and all day long I hunted for beautiful blue beach glass and tasted the salt from the ocean surrounded by so many little birds, and big gulls tweeting as they stole my potato chips I cheered them on oh, the wonderful ocean. I can smell it from afar when does the ocean sleep?
