TOP STORY

Classic Clapton Rocks Gerry Park JOSEPH SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

elief from the summer heat came just in time for Roslyn residents last Wednesday night when the Greater Roslyn Chamber of Commerce presented Classic Clapton, the first live music event in Gerry Park in three years. “Roslyn’s hills were truly alive with the sound of music.” That’s how chamber officials described the concert. “I couldn’t have asked for a better band, better weather or a better crowd,” said “Lobster Lou” Federico, vice president of events. Federico, chamber officials added, worked as hard as usual to bring the concert together. The Classic Clapton show marked Federico’s tenth year coordinating the outdoor event. Officials added that the near-perfect weather brought up to 200 area music lovers from as far away as Bellmore, Floral Park and Syosset to see Classic Clapton perform a monster two-hour set that included the best of Cream, Blind Faith and Eric Clapton’s own solo works. Opening with “White Room,” the band had the crowd dancing from the first chords. The outdoor party continued right through the big finale, the legendary “Layla.” That wasn’t enough and so the band came back for several encores as demanded by the boisterous crowd. Cream, which was in existence from 1966 to 1968, was a legendary band that has been recognized as the first supergroup. It included Clapton on guitar, Jack Bruce on bass and Ginger Baker on drums. The band had a string of hits, including “Crossroads,” “Badge,” “White Room” and “Sunshine of Your Love.” Blind Faith came into being in 1969, after Cream’s breakup. This supergroup included Clapton, Baker, plus Steve Winwood and Ric Creech. Blind Faith lasted only a year. Their hits include “In The Presence of the Lord.” “Layla” was originally recorded by another Clapton-led band, Derek and the Dominos, which included Duane Allman and Clapton on dueling guitars for one of the most memorable riffs in rock history. The concert was produced by the Chamber and The Town Of North Hempstead. Chamber officials especially want to thank the concert’s many valuable sponsors including Delicacies, Sara Companion, The Atria At Roslyn Harbor, Holiday Farms, Quick Commercial Capital, Pierce Camps, Abeetza Pizza, East Hills Cleaners, The Paint Place and lead sponsor Penn Toyota.

St. Francis Delivers Again THE ROSLYN NEWS STAFF roslyn@antonmediagroup.com

oslyn’s St. Francis Hospital recently performed another of the many charities it has long been legendary

for. The hospital, along with Gift of Life Long Island, partnered together to provide life-changing heart surgery to a child in need—most recently, a 9-year-old girl from Ukraine who was unable to receive the proper care at home due to the ongoing war with Russia. Polina Shchepaniak was brought to Long Island by Gift of Life for a surgery to fix a hole between the two upper chambers of her heart. This is a relatively common defect that was traditionally rectified through open heart surgery. St. Francis Hospital Chair of Pediatric Cardiology, Sean Levchuck, MD, was able to perform a non-invasive procedure by use of a catheter and an umbrella-shaped device, called an Amplatzer ASD Occluder, to grab both sides of the hole and close it. Kateryna Shchepaniak, Polina’s mother, has known about her daughter’s condi-

tion since she was just 11 days old. After communicating with Gift of Life and Dr. Levchuck through Zoom, the family made the trip from Ukraine to Long Island for this necessary surgery. As the Russian invasion of Ukraine continues, Ukrainians are forced to flee their homes and are often faced with challenges to find health care. “I’m so grateful to St. Francis Hospital and Gift of Life,” Shchepaniak said. “It was always a big scare for me every time she got the flu or a cold because of the hole in her heart, but now I don’t have to worry.” St. Francis Hospital has long partnered with Gift of Life Long Island to help children from all over the world who do not have access to lifesaving cardiac procedures. Dr. Levchuck is one of many physicians who donate their time and services to perform these minimally invasive procedures that treat congenital disorders. “When we heard there was a child in need in Ukraine, with everything that’s going on with the war, we knew we had to help,” Gift of Life Long Island CEO Harry Miller said. “Our organization is committed to helping children like Polina and to see the smile on her face today means a lot to our team.” —Submitted by St. Francis Hospital

Frost’s Gift: America The Innocent Part I

JOSEPH SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

obert Frost’s poetry reading at the 1961 presidential inauguration remains the stuff of legend. Universally recognized as the “Good Grey Poet,” Frost, for decades, had been a beloved figure in American culture. In 1960, his fellow New Englander, John F. Kennedy was elected president. The young president invited Frost to read at the inaugural. It would be the first time such an event had taken place. Kennedy was not a writer or even the great reader the media made him out to be. But he was a newspaperman at heart. That was his true calling. However, when his older brother Joe died in World War II, it was up to young Jack to shoulder the family burden

■ '

of being the nation’s first Irish Catholic president. For weeks afterward, Kennedy complained that Frost’s stunning performance upstaged his own “Ask not what your country can do for you,” stemwinder. Well, Mr. President, you did invite him. Up rose Frost to recite. He had composed a poem, “For John F. Kennedy: His Inauguration.” He was 86. At that age, most men are dead, much less writing world-class poetry. The shining sun made it hard to read the lines. In addition, a strong wind threatened to blow the pages off the podium. Vice President Richard Nixon, who had just lost an excruciating close election to Kennedy, tried to keep the pages in place. So too did Vice President-Elect Lyndon Johnson. Frost gave up. He ignored the text. Frost instead read, from memory, his 1942 classic, “The Gift Outright.” In the process, the world missed something priceless: Frost’s reading of “For John F. Kennedy.” 86 years old. And writing verse

Robert Frost reading at the Kennedy inaugural that a man half his age couldn’t touch. Was it a great poem? What is representative of Frost’s world view? Is it jingoistic? Or just heartfelt patriotism? What the poem did was capture the mood of a supremely confident America. It might not have been the real Robert Frost, but it overwhelms the reader.

ROBERT FROST from page 2 By character, by tongue, by native trait, The new world Christopher Columbus found. The French, the Spanish, and the Dutch were downed And counted out. Heroic deeds were done. Elizabeth the First and England won. Then a celebration of American independence. So much those heroes knew and understood, I mean the great four, Washington, John Adams, Jefferson, and Madison— So much they knew as consecrated seers They must have seen ahead what now appears, They would bring empires down about our ears And by example of our Declaration Make everybody want to be a nation. And this is no aristocratic joke At the expense of negligible folk. America, 1961. How innocent the times were. Criticism of Washington, Adams, Jefferson and Madison was out of bounds. All four were revered, unconditionally, by the public. Only consider the dinner Kennedy held in 1962 for an eclectic collection of artists, musicians and writers. “There has never been so much talent in this room expect for the time when Thomas Jefferson dined alone,” the president boldly declared. Even Homer nodded. “Negligible folk” represents the true Frost. The man was no aristocrat. He didn’t care at all for democracy either, but he was Jeffersonian in his love for the plain folk. Yes, how innocent. And how optimistic.

North

Some poor fool has been saying in his heart Glory is out of date in life and art. Our venture in revolution and outlawry Has justified itself in freedom’s story Right down to now in glory upon glory. Come fresh from an election like the last, The greatest vote a people ever cast, So close yet sure to be abided by, It is no miracle our mood is high. Frost’s true vision came in focus as the poem was winding down. There is a call to life a little sterner And braver for the earner, learner, yearner. Less criticism of the field and court. And more preoccupation with the sport. That’s more like it. As with Theodore Roosevelt, Frost preferred the strenuous life. Breathing that brisk New England air for up to nine decades can keep a man young— young enough to write immortal poetry at age 86. Back now to the romantic Frost. It makes the prophet in us all presage The glory of a next Augustan age Of a power leading from its strength and pride, Of young ambition to be tried, Firm in our beliefs without dismay, In any game the nations want to play. A golden age of poetry and power Of which this noonday’s the beginning hour. Can you blame Frost for writing such soaring verse? Again, consider America,

circa 1961. Had the world seen such a nation? Its economic, military and cultural might was unparalleled. When writers like T.S. Eliot, William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway traveled the globe, they were treated like rock stars. The Beatles before The Beatles. Even the Roman Catholic Church felt the winds of change, abandoning its traditional Latin in the disastrous Vatican II council. The postwar boom roared on, fertility rates soared well past the replacement levels. The country had jobs that paid, complete with annual raises and Christmas bonuses. Numbers aside, January 1961 remained

America the Innocent. Scholars would analyze the presidencies of Jefferson and Madison, but neither man was savaged as they are today. No wonder Americans, for the past three decades, have cried out to have “our country back.” Dies the history, dies the nation? “For John F. Kennedy” may not be representative Robert Frost. His worldview was hardly romantic. It’s impossible to put down. The poem is an unforgettable hymn to a still-young nation at peak confidence. (Next week: “The Gift Outright”)

Hochul’s Dilemmas On MTA Congestion Pricing, Fare Increases And Deficits Governor Kathy Hochul recently said “The M.T.A. is the lifeblood. We will be focusing on ways to generate revenues with congestion pricing. That is back on track after a few hiccups with the federal government. We will have no fare increases planned, because we want people to come back to work.” (Source: Questions for New York’s Candidates for Governor, New York Times, Sunday, June 26) This did not tell the whole story. Congestion pricing continues to be politically sensitive. Final details of who will pay has yet to be determined by the MTA Traffic Mobility Review Board. One year after becoming governor, Hochul announced appointments to fill her five seats. This was made public at the July 27 MTA board meeting. They include Carl Weisbrod, a former city planning and economic development chief who will serve as chairman of the MTA TMRB. He currently is employed with the consultant firm HR&A Advisors. The other four appointees on the board are the former Real Estate Board of New York President John Banks, a past president of the New York Real Estate Board; Scott Rechler, Regional Plan Association chief and the head of developer RXR Realty; MTA Board Member Elizabeth Velez, a past chairperson of the New York Building Congress; and Kathryn Wylde, who heads the Partnership for New York City. This organization represents the city’s business community. No union, commuter or environmental advocacy group leaders were appointed. Elected officials on all levels of government will lobby for

discounts or exemptions for police officers, fire fighters, teachers, low income, New York City outer borough residency, seniors, physically disabled, small commercial delivery businesses, users of electric vehicles, residents living below 60th Street in Manhattan or other special niches. These discounts or exemptions will be adopted to placate their constituents when running for reelection in 2023 or 2024. More discounts translates to less revenues. Nobody can predict if anywhere near $1 billion in annual toll revenues will actually appear.. The MTA has scheduled virtual public hearings in August. For months, all of the MTA board and committee meetings held at MTA HQ in Manhattan have been in person. Why not the same for these public hearings? . In 2019, fare increases for the MTA NYC transit bus, subway and Staten Island Railway, along with Long Island and Metro North Rail Roads were part of the approval process for the $51 billion 2020-24 Five Year Capital Plan. Former Governor Andrew Cuomo, New York City Mayor Bill

de Blasio, the State Legislature and City Council were all in on this financial arrangement. It included 4 percent increases in 2021 and 2023. Continuing to postpone fare increases will add to the MTA financial shortfall. Comptroller Tom DiNapoli just released a devastating report on MTA finances. Hochul never comments on the ongoing fare evasion averaging several hundred million per year. The loss of farebox revenue due to two million pre-COVID-19 riders failing to return also adversely impacts the MTA budget. The MTA’s own updated McKinley Consultants report indicated it will take many more years before ridership ever returns to pre-COVID-19 numbers. Hochul has ignored the impact of inflation on the MTA. The price of both gasoline and diesel fuel has doubled. The engineering cost estimates for capital construction projects will have to be reevaluated for procurement contracts that will be advertised over the next 29 months remaining in the MTA $51 billion 2020-24 Five Year Capital Plan. The same also applies for the purchase of materials for routine maintenance and state of good repair in house track, signal and other projects performed by MTA employees. Future purchases of buses, subway and commuter rail cars may cost more. Vendors who bid on MTA material purchases and capital projects will inevitably pass on their own increased costs for materials including delivery costs How will Hochul assist the MTA in making up for billions in previously anticipated congestion price tolling that may not appear until 2024, along with previously

The Netflix hit series, which has a fan following in the millions, was first introduced to me by our daughter, who had binge-watched the entire first season, seven years ago. “You are going to LOVE it,” she assured us, but I was more than hesitant. A bit of a backstory: Our daughter absolutely adores horror flicks and has attempted to engage me in them with limited success. Hubby is the horror fan, but for some reason, our girl wanted me to really like them as she did. For the record, her favorite movie of all time is House of 1000 Corpses, followed by The Devil’s Rejects for a close second. Watching those flicks gave me nightmares for a week, so when our daughter stated that Stranger Things would be a favorite series, I didn’t believe her. Color me surprised as Hubby and I binged the first season, followed by the second. The music brought me back to our dating days, when Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel, Journey and Cyndi Lauper reigned supreme. I had every cassette by all those artists, (yes, I am THAT old) and I played them so frequently that I feared

the cassette tape would become wrapped around the player heads and be destroyed. I fell in love with the series and every character therein. After a very long hiatus, the series returned for Season 3. The cast was clad in styles that I myself wore when Hubby and I frequented Sunrise Mall, back in the days when it was a hopping place. Although the clothing was kind of hideous, with day-glo colors and bold geometrics on pants and tops, I thought of it as the time when I could truly express myself. The cast, who were coming of age in Season 3, began to express themselves as well and we were

glued to the TV until the season finale. Throughout the year, the Duffer Brothers, creators of Stranger Things, often bestowed small teaser-styled “gifts” to fans, such as information about the upcoming Season 4, the idea that the season would wrap the entire series, and occasional photos from the set. We watched the trailer of Season 4, continuously searching for any clues about the upcoming plot. When Season 4 was finally released, we were beyond thrilled to find out that the season was the penultimate and the Duffers had been green lit for Season 5. When our daughter found out that the series still had a bit more of the story to go, I received a text message all in caps: “THERE IS GOING TO BE A SEASON FIVE!!!” We weren’t the only ones who were thrilled. Throughout Season 4, Max, a character who joined the core cast in Season 2, was haunted by negative thoughts, among other things. Her weapon came in the form of a Walkman, which played Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” in one continuous loop to keep her mind protected. My daughter sent

me a text that read, “I knew all the words to Max’s favorite song, because you played that song all the time in the car.” It was true, “Running Up That Hill” was one of my favorite songs off the The Whole Story album. During my days as a nursing student at SUNY Farmingdale, it was my go-to song that blasted on my Blaupunkt cassette radio on the way to campus. I related to the song in multiple ways, knew the words forward and backward, and at that time was able to reach all the high notes. When our daughter was younger, I played it often enough for her to sing along softly in the back seat of my car. As time went on, the days of cassette players had long passed, and my Kate Bush cassette sat in the attic collecting dust. Yet our daughter

often sang along with the radio whenever the song was played. Now that Season 5 of Stranger Things is a go, I’m strongly considering breaking out that cassette again. I found an old stereo in the basement that can still play both vinyl records and cassette tapes. It might be time to play it again while I await the end of Elle, Mike, Will, Nancy, Steve, Robin, Jonathan, Lucas, Duncan and Max’s story. Truth be told, I hope Vecna, the villain of Season 4, meets his end in his inevitable face-off with Elle. The end of Season 4 leaves most of the cast standing on a hill. I hope Elle is running up it in victory at the end of the series. Patty Servidio is an Anton Media Group columnist.

The host, Lori, was really nice and told us many stories of her travels. She said she enjoys hosting because she gets to meet so many interesting people and she even had a wall of photos of past guests. We relaxed in the Airbnb, that had a very nice backyard with a garden, hammock and yard games, all day and then went to the festival at night.

Check Your Titers

There are vaccines you need as an adult

ou need vaccines throughout your life. Adults need to keep their vaccinations up to date because immunity from childhood vaccines can wear off over time. It is important to have your titers checked annually during your annual doctor’s visit. A titer test is a blood test that detects the presence and levels of certain antibodies in an individual’s blood stream. The test is often done to determine if the individual is immune to a certain virus or if they require a vaccination to increase their immunity. You may already have immunity to the virus that is being tested due to previous vaccinations or if you had contracted the disease in the past. If a titer test reveals that your antibody count is lower than the acceptable immunity threshold, you may require a vaccine or booster to increase your immunity to that virus. You are also at risk for different diseases as an adult. Vaccination is one of the most convenient and safest preventive care measures available. All adults should get: • Flu vaccine every year to protect against seasonal flu • Td/Tdap to protect against tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (whooping cough) Based on your age, health conditions, vaccines you received as a child, and other factors, you may need additional vaccines such as: • Chickenpox • Hepatitis A • Hepatitis B • Human Papillomavirus (HPV) • MMR • Meningococcal • Pneumococcal • Shingles

natural defenses to lower the chances of getting certain diseases as well as suffering complications from these diseases. Vaccines lower your chance of spreading certain diseases. There are many things you want to pass on to your loved ones; a vaccine preventable disease is not one of them. Infants, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems (like those undergoing cancer treatment) are especially vulnerable to vaccine preventable diseases. Vaccines are one of the safest ways to protect your health. Vaccine side effects are usually mild and go away on their own. Severe side effects are very rare.

risk for other diseases due to your age, job, lifestyle, travel, or health conditions.

1. You may be at risk for serious diseases that are still common in the U.S. Each year thousands of adults in the United States get sick from diseases that could be prevented by vaccines — some people are hospitalized, and some even die. Even if you got all your vaccines as a child, the protection from some vaccines can wear off over time. You may also be at

3. You can protect your health and the health of those around you by getting the recommended vaccines. Vaccines lower your chance of getting sick. Vaccines work with your body’s

2. You can’t afford to risk getting sick. Even healthy people can get sick enough to miss work or school. If you’re sick, you may not be able to take care of your family or other responsibilities.

Adults can get vaccines at doctors’ offices, pharmacies, workplaces, community health clinics, health departments, and other locations. To find a vaccine provider near you, go to www.vaccine. healthmap.org. Most health insurance plans cover the cost of recommended vaccines. Check with your insurance provider for details and for a list of vaccine providers. If you do not have health insurance, visit www.healthcare.gov to learn more about health coverage options. Talk with your healthcare professional to make sure you are up to date with the vaccines recommended for you. For more information on vaccines, visit www.cdc.gov/vaccines/adults or use the AdultVaccine Assessment Tool at www2.cdc.gov/nip/adultimmsched/ to find out which vaccines you may need. —Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)

August Is Psoriasis Action Month Psoriasis is an immune-mediated disease (a disease with an unclear cause that is characterized by inflammation caused by dysfunction of the immune system) that causes inflammation in the body. There may be visible signs of the inflammation such as raised plaques (plaques may look different for different skin types) and scales on the skin. This occurs because the overactive immune system speeds up skin cell growth. Normal skin cells completely grow and shed (fall off) in a month. With psoriasis, skin cells do this in only three or four days. Instead of shedding, the skin cells pile up on the surface of the skin. Some people report that psoriasis plaques itch, burn and sting. Plaques and scales may appear on any part of the body, although they are commonly found on the elbows, knees,

and scalp. Inflammation caused by psoriasis can impact other organs and tissues in the body. People with psoriasis may also experience other health conditions. One in three people

with psoriasis may also develop psoriatic arthritis. Symptoms often start between ages 15 and 25, but can start at any age. Men, women, and children of all skin colors can get psoriasis. Psoriasis can appear anywhere on the body, even on the eyelids, ears, lips, skin folds, hands, feet, and nails. Plaques can be a few small patches or can affect large areas. It’s possible to have psoriasis plaques and scales in more than one location on the body at a time. There are five types of psoriasis. It’s possible to have more than one type of psoriasis at one time and more than one type in a lifetime. Treatments may vary depending on the type and location of the psoriasis. While scientists do not know what exactly causes psoriasis, we do know that

the immune system and genetics play major roles in its development. One thing we do know: psoriasis is not contagious. You cannot catch psoriasis from another person. Usually, something triggers psoriasis, causing symptoms to appear or worsen. Triggers vary from person to person. As with other chronic diseases, psoriasis may affect areas of your life other than your physical health. Psoriasis may affect your emotional health, your relationships, and how you handle stress. It could even affect areas of your life that you wouldn’t expect, such as the clothes that you choose to wear. For some people, living with psoriasis can be a challenge. However, there are ways to handle those challenges so you can thrive with psoriasis. Visit www.psoriasis.org to learn more. —National Psoriasis Foundation

COVID And Monkeypox

OVID and monkeypox are frequent topics of conversation. Many questions remain regarding what these infections can cause. This column will discuss the current knowledge of these infections on the liver. COVID infections remain common in our area with the number of actual cases being much higher than the reported cases due to the widespread availability of home testing. The dominant strain in the U.S. is BA.5 and this is reported to be the most contagious of all the COVID strains to date. Super-spreading events are up as people seem to be more comfortable attending these events without masking. While infections are up, hospitalizations and severe outcomes from this strain are down, which is good news. Widespread vaccination and boosters, while not eliminating the risk of acquiring COVID, can be credited for lessening the impact of the disease on those infected. When COVID was first described, the data showed the fifty percent of infected individuals developed abnormal liver tests and some developed chronic liver disease with some even requiring liver transplantation. This does not appear to be the case with the newer strains. Whether this is a vaccine effect or that this strain is less liver toxic is unknown. It may simply be that the majority of COVID infected patients

THE SPECIALIST David Bernstein, MD

currently stay at home and do not go for laboratory testing while in the beginning of the pandemic, these patients were seen in the hospitals and labs were obtained. Regardless, this is good news for the liver. When people with liver disease become infected with COVID, they do not have worse outcomes than those without liver disease. A recent report described no increased risk of poor outcomes in people with fatty liver and since this is about thirty percent of the American population, this comes as good news. For people with cirrhosis, COVID is associated with poor outcomes so it is essential that this group be vaccinated, take boosters when available and consider masking when entering indoor public places. Treatments are available for COVID

although most patients can recover without these therapies. Monoclonal antibodies are widely used and have been shown to be safe for liver patients and not to cause abnormal liver tests when given to the general population. Paxlovid, however, due to its ritonavir component, has been described to cause abnormal liver tests and therefore should be given with caution in patients with underlying chronic liver disease. Monkeypox is a virus that is similar to smallpox and is not related to chickenpox.

It is typically spread through close personal and intimate contact and is more commonly spread in men having sex with men. Monkeypox typically causes fever, headaches, muscle aches, a lack of energy and a rash resembling pimples or pus-filled blisters. Monkeypox is rarely fatal and significant liver issues have not been reported to be associated with this infection. There is no specific treatment. A vaccine is available to prevent infection. —David Bernstein, MD, MACG, FAASLD, AGAF, FACP

Northwell Pioneers Lipid Apheresis BY ANTON MEDIA STAFF

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

igh cholesterol is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease including heart attack, stroke and peripheral arterial disease. Though elevated cholesterol (lipids) may be due to dietary indiscretion, it can also be due to genetic predisposition, called Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH). Patients are born with very high levels of cholesterol due to a genetic mutation of the cholesterol receptor in the liver and are less responsive to medications intended to lower lipid levels. This diagnosis can be made through routine cholesterol blood tests and a physical examination. Patients with Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) possess one normal, and one abnormal cholesterol receptor gene and this occurs in 1 out of 250 people. Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) have two defective cholesterol receptor genes and this is seen in 1 out of 300,000 people. HoFH patients can have cholesterol levels above 400mg/dl and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels above 300mg/dl. Patients with FH can develop early coronary artery disease and are at greater risk for heart attacks and strokes and have a shorter life expectancy. Overall, patients with FH are 20 times more likely to develop heart disease. Cholesterol reduction in these patients requires more than diet and exercise modifications to achieve target cholesterol levels. Lipid lowering therapy is required and statin drugs are the preferred treatment. However, 7 to 20 percent of patients maybe statin intolerant. Many of these patients treated with maximally tolerated dosages of statins may not achieve their cholesterol

Guy L. Mintz, MD target and require multiple lipid lowering therapies. Patients who are at very high risk for cardiovascular events with persistent elevated cholesterol despite medical therapy may be candidates for Lipid Apheresis. Lipid Apheresis is a treatment indicated for patients with coronary artery disease, peripheral arterial disease or elevated Lipoprotein, and elevated cholesterol despite medical therapy. It is reserved for patients with atherosclerosis or at very high cardiovascular risk in whom medical treatments have been ineffective, or those with HoFH who have had a limited response to standard cholesterol lowering therapies. Lipid Apheresis is a lifelong procedure in which venous blood is filtered through an apheresis machine that removes the bad lipids and returns the “clean” blood back to the patient. The duration of the procedure ranges from two to four hours. The process

Apheresis machine significantly reduces total cholesterol components 70 to 80 percent, and lipoprotein 60 to 70 percent. The procedure is performed bi-weekly or weekly based on post procedure lipid levels. North Shore University Hospital is the only center on Long Island and is just the third center in New York to offer this cutting-edge procedure. The first procedure on Long Island was led by Dr. Guy L. Mintz, FACP, FACC, FNLA, and his team at North Shore University Hospital. “Lipid apheresis slows the progression of atherosclerosis, reduces vascular inflammation and in doing so, reduces the patient’s chances of a heart attack,” Mintz said. Mintz is the director of the lipid apheresis at Northwell Health and the Director of Cardiovascular Health & Lipidology at North Shore University Hospital. “The longer patients are exposed to very

high levels of cholesterol, the earlier they develop heart disease,” Mintz said. “This is especially true in patients with Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia.” Mintz emphasized the importance of reducing high cholesterol as early as possible and seeking a treatment that is best suited to reduce a patient’s cardiovascular risk. For some patients that might be as simple as diet and exercise. Other patients may need medical therapy. And for some, lipid apheresis might be the best option. “We have brought new hope to a group of patients whose medications have failed,” Mintz said. “Apheresis is another important tool in our toolbox for treating these high-risk patients; early evaluation and intervention is an opportunity for cardiac prevention.” Mintz can be reached at Northwell Health System (1350 Northern Blvd,, Suite 202, Manhasset) or by phone at 516-482-3401.

Smart Savers Thermostat Program

ith temperatures of 90 degrees and above forecast for the rest of the week and into the weekend, PSEG Long Island will be activating its voluntary Smart Savers Thermostat Program to help create future savings for customers. The company also encourages its customers to be prepared for the extreme heat. PSEG continues to expect to have enough electric capacity to meet customer demand for the high temperatures and high humidity. While there are no capacity concerns, PSEG is planning to activate its voluntary Smart Savers Thermostat program to reduce loading on the system, which helps create future savings for customers. PSEG must purchase power in advance, basing the amount on load forecasts and state-mandated capacity requirements that incorporate peak-usage levels from previous years. By reducing peak usage this year, the company lowers the amount of power that must be purchased in advance for next summer. Approximately 27,500 customers who have elected to participate in this program may experience on- and off-cycling of their central air conditioning systems, or a small increase in temperature, between the hours of 4 and 7 p.m. Activating the program also allows PSEG to maintain an up-to-date assessment of the program’s capability to reduce demand on peak load days.

RECOMMENDATIONS: • Set home thermostats or air conditioner units to 78 degrees. • Run major appliances such as

washing machines, dishwashers and pool pumps, in the morning or late evening to avoid the peak demand hours of 2 to 8 p.m. • Set refrigerators and freezers at most-efficient temperatures. • Do not cool an empty house. Set your thermostat higher when you are away, or use a smart thermostat to control the temperature. • Close blinds and draperies facing the sun to keep out the sun’s heat. • Ceiling fans cool fast and cost less than air conditioning. (In hot weather, set your ceiling fan to spin quickly, counterclockwise to push air downward toward the floor.) • Seal holes and cracks around doors and windows with caulk or weather-stripping. • Replace old appliances with new energy efficient ENERGY STAR appliances • Replace air filters monthly. Dirty filters make your air conditioner work harder. High temperatures and high electric demand can sometimes cause scattered, heat-related outages. PSEG will have additional personnel available to address outages safely and as quickly as possible.

STAY CONNECTED: • Download the PSEG mobile app to report outages and receive information on restoration times, crew locations and more • To report an outage and receive status updates via text, text OUT to PSEGLI (773454) or visit us online at www.psegliny.com/outages • To report an outage or downed wire call 800-490-0075. —PSEG Long Island

In Napa Valley, we saw one of the three Old Faithful Geysers and we went to Trefethen Family Vineyards. My friend and I split a wine tasting. Being in Napa Valley, in some ways, reminded me of being out east on Long Island. The next morning, we headed to San Jose. We had the evening to ourselves, so we went to Japantown in San Jose to get dinner and dessert and to check out a karaoke bar, where I sang two songs. We had so much fun.

We finished the day by taking the scenic route towards San Jose, stopping at a Vista Point to look at the clouds that covered the mountains like smoke.

of this intrinsic satisfaction gets from playing live dates back to Wilson seeing Led Zeppelin for the first time on a bill with Three Dog Night and the Fifth Dimension, or early days spent in pre-Heart bands like White Heart and Hocus Pocus, you’d be wrong. It was instead the experience of listening to her mom’s copy of Harry Belafonte’s Live at Carnegie Hall that cast the die for the future rock singer that continues to be her creative North Star. “Live at Carnegie Hall is just a classic record with some amazing performances on there,” she recalled. “He did this version of the old Irish song ‘Danny Boy’ on there. He just has the audience right in the palm of his hand with all this delicacy and tenderness before he goes up to this one high note and nails it. I was just a little kid listening to that and I felt the thrill of that high note so deeply that in that moment, I knew I had to do that somehow. I didn’t know how, but I had to get up there and feel that. It had very little to do with an audience. It had more to do with being a hollow reed and taking orders from the Force.”

Vince Gill joined Ann Wilson for a cover of Queen’s “Love of My Life” on the latter’s recent album Fierce Bliss.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). At times, it will feel as though you’re tasked to obey illogical orders. A level of stress may come with this service, though fortunately so. You’ll become acquainted with your own preferences. To learn your displeasure is useful in steering toward your joy. Roads are built by ruling out everything that’s not the road.

Land of plenty

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s not easy being so handy to others, but it’s fulfilling. Expectations emerge as you go about your week. There will be people to please, troubles to avoid, conventions to obey and an endless stream of actions to take. Each night, you’ll hit the pillow knowing you did your best and became a little sharper for the effort.

Solution: 20 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). When they are having fun, so are you. Shared enjoyment multiplies. On the flip side, there are those who put a damper on experiences you would usually enjoy. You can’t control the opinions and behaviors of others, but if it’s your party, you can control the guest list. Now, just think of your life as your party.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A rhythm that’s settled into your days has a way of obligating you to it. You may not even realize how deep a groove this has become. This week is your moment to question the obligation. Is it aligned with your greater goals? If so, celebrate. If not, seize your lucky stars; here comes the opportunity to change it up. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The trouble with an experience has nothing to do with the experience itself. The problem has to do with something keeping you from giving undivided attention to the moment. What’s stopping you for giving your thoughts and efforts to the task at hand? It’s likely you can make your life simpler to make it better. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s nice to know you have options, but the power comes from actually exercising them. Try new things. Don’t be afraid of the work, and don’t back down from inconvenience. Change is often quite inconvenient indeed, but it will be worth it. What’s needed now isn’t the feeling of freedom; it’s the actual freedom. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You wouldn’t necessarily call this week’s job fun, but it’s a lot more fun than what will happen if it goes undone. So, you’ll dig in and handle it like a boss. This week, someone powerful will recognize your work -- and more notably, the stellar attitude with which you approach it -- with keen interest. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). In a sea of people, certain individuals stand out to you. It’s as though neon-lit arrows are pointing you in their direction. Break the ice, and you’ll find out your lives have followed a parallel path. There are many connections to explore, and you can take your time. Quality relationships will come together slowly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s hard to say who benefits you more -- your supporters or your opposition. Those who are on your side give you the power of numbers and validation. Those who are against you give you the means for strength, sharpness and clarity. You’ll learn just what you need to overcome to succeed. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll want to give others the plan, make it easy for them, spell out the details and communicate literally and clearly. Your impulse isn’t wrong, but does it leave room for imagination? If you preconceive the limitations of others, they will become your own. Magical collaborations will take place in spaces of trust.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

You’ll be loved for who you naturally are, no embellishments or accomplishments necessary, and yet you still feel driven to bring new potentials to life. It’s as though an internal timer has been activated to sprout seeds of your soul. Many will get to enjoy this version of yourself as you’ll mingle in a wide array of social circles including the familiar and the foreign, small groups and big crowds, too. Additions to your family will bring joy and a change in your daily priorities and rhythms.

Careful play foils the defense

North dealer. North-South vulnerable.

Let’s say you’re in six diamonds and West leads the ten of clubs. How would you proceed? If you fail to treat the hand with the respect it deserves, you’ll finish down one — assuming best defense. For example, if you win the club, draw trump and lead a heart toward dummy, West follows low, and

sooner or later you lose a spade and a club. The best approach, after winning the club lead with the king, is to play a heart immediately. If West takes the ace, you have 12 tricks, so let’s assume he lets you win with dummy’s queen. Now you cash the A-Q of trump, leaving one trump at large, then play the ace and another club toward your queen, hoping to find the suit divided 3-3. East produces the jack on the ace, then goes into deep thought trying to decide whether or not to ruff the five. Actually, it doesn’t matter what he does. Let’s suppose he trumps the club. In that case, you play low from your hand, retaining the queen of clubs. With all the adverse trumps now out of circulation, you can later discard a spade from dummy on the club queen and make the slam by ruffing a spade in dummy. If East does not ruff the third round of clubs, you are on equally firm ground. After winning with the queen, you ruff the seven of clubs with the jack of trump to produce your 12th trick.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Fun involves an element of risk. If you’re playing it too safe, you’re not playing at all. You could turn your frolicsome interests into an art form. Keep in mind that artistry is diminished where there are telltale signs of the labor involved. You’ll be rewarded for the work you do to make it look like it’s no work at all.

HOROSCOPES By Holiday Mathis HOROSCOPES

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It would seem that nothing gets accomplished without discipline, and yet when you feel driven to do something, it never even occurs to you that you need discipline. Being interested and craving answers and results renders discipline unnecessary. This week, you will be propelled by your desire to know what happens next.

Team Carolyn Stars In Swim Across America THE ROSLYN NEWS STAFF roslyn@antonmediagroup.com

n July 31, Team Carolyn made a big splash in the annual Swim Across America - Sound to Cove open water swim, held at Prybil Beach. While it was the 12th annual Swim Across America event on Long Island, it is the first for Team Carolyn and the Chestler family swimming in Carolyn Jaenisch Chestler’s memory. The team is tops in fundraising with $180,000 raised so far. Carolyn Jaenisch Chestler was an Old Westbury resident and avid swimmer. In July 2021, she was diagnosed with terminal adenocarcinoma, a form of non-small cell lung cancer. Her diagnosis came as a total shock to her family. Carolyn was healthy and very active. In fact, she had run the New York City Marathon, completed a relay and double relay swimming the English Channel, swam around Manhattan and hiked Machu Picchu at age 60. Before her diagnosis, she could be found swimming the open water of Long Island Sound. Chestler had a passion and zest for life and adventure and had even just completed her Master’s Degree in American History in May 2021. She was in the midst of training for the TransRockies run with her sister and neighbor and learning how to sail in hopes of traveling to visit her son in Australia. Nothing stopped Chestler from DOING and leading an active lifestyle - not even COVID-19. A swimming friend of hers stated, “...while most people were going nowhere (in 2020-21), we were going somewhere.” Chestler’s’s husband Steve noted that after his wife’s diagnosis, her family started looking for a charity event and found Swim Across America Sound to Cove open water swim at Prybil Beach and made it their mission to swim in it. The goal was for Chestler to see her family swim in her honor. She passed away in November of 2021,

beneficiaries: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, the Feinstein Institute of North Shore, and MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital, SHARE Cancer Support. “We know Carolyn would be honored that she has been supported and loved so much,” Chestler said. Founded in 1987 and celebrating 35 years of #makingwaves to #fightcancer this year, Swim Across America is a national nonprofit organization that holds 24 open water swims across the country, from Boston to under the Golden Gate Bridge. The organization has an interesting history as it started with a sunken boat in Long Island Sound at its first-ever open water swim and has turned its passion for swimming and fighting cancer into $100 million that supports crucial cancer research throughout the country. The Sound to Cove swim in Nassau-Suffolk counties has raised more than $10.5 million in support of its beneficiaries. Swim Across America funding has contributed to four FDA approved life-saving immunotherapy treatments: Yervoy, Opdivo, Tecentriq and Keytruda, and supports research with more than 60 scientific grants funded each year. This past June there was very exciting news about a clinical trial at Memorial Sloan Kettering which was published in The New England Journal of Medicine that showed a 100 percent success rate in treating patients in a phase 2 clinical trial for advanced rectal cancer with dostarlimab, an immunotherapy treatment produced by GlaxoSmithKline. The clinical trial at Memorial Sloan Kettering was funded by early-stage grant funding from Swim Across America. In honor of Swim Across America’s 35th anniversary, the organization is showcasing “35 Stories of Impact” throughout its decades with a special website at swimacrossamerica.org/35. Team Carolyn is one of the “35 Stories of Impact” profiled. Visit www.swimacrossamerica.org/ nassau to learn more about Swim Across America.

Westbury Student Art Showcased At Old Westbury Gardens Old Westbury Gardens recently held an art show displaying artwork by Westbury High School scholars. The art show featured artwork by art scholars from Anthony Abruscato’s Pre-AP and AP Art classes, Beth Ponce’s Digital Photography class and Sarah St. John’s Drawing & Painting 1 class. “It was a beautiful day for art,” St. John said. “We have an exceptionally gifted group of aspiring artists. To our graduating seniors, know that you have inspired us all. Remember that art is all around us and never lose your passion for doing what you love.”

Art scholars took a field trip to Old Westbury Gardens earlier in the school year. With a camera and a notebook, the scholars wandered throughout the gardens capturing photographs and sketching ideas to develop concepts for their future art compositions. Those future art compositions were later exhibited at the art show. “I am incredibly proud of the creativity and artistic aptitude our Westbury High School art scholars possess,” Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tahira DuPree Chase said. “To all of our scholars who had their artwork displayed, please take a moment

to appreciate this achievement. You inspire us all.” Earlier in the school year, several Westbury Union Free School District scholars from the elementary level to high school were selected to have their artwork displayed in the Art Supervisors Association All-County Art Exhibit.

Neo-Nazi Gibberish Left On Lawns, Cars Double-sided fliers with antitransgender and century-old antisemitic drivel found in three Nassau communities

JANET BURNS jburns@antonmediagroup.com

assau police and lawmakers are looking for answers about the party or parties responsible for distributing fliers containing antisemitic, antitransgender disinformation in three Nassau County communities in July. The Nassau County Police Department says that one or more people in a white 2009 or 2010 Toyota Prius may be among those responsible for littering southern Nassau communities with antisemetic, white nationalistic propaganda two weekends ago. According to police and local leaders, at least a few dozen fliers were surreptitiously distributed sometime between late Thursday, July 21 and early Saturday, July 23. Distribution of the fliers seemingly occurred in at least two ‘waves’ late at night on Thursday and then Friday. separated by an initial wave of public condemnation. The fliers were first discovered in Oceanside and Rockville Centre on Friday morning, July 22, folded into plastic bags weighed down with grain and tossed onto residents’ front steps or lawns. That day, Rockville Centre police and a handful of local legislators and rabbis held a press conference condemning the actions, and displaying a large blow-up of one side of the flier. Rockville Centre Mayor Francis X. Murray commented during the presser, “This divisive rhetoric and behavior needs to be stopped now.” Then on Saturday, July 23, residents of Long Beach reported finding the fliers tucked under their cars’ windshield wipers; according to local sources, yet more fliers were also found that day back in Oceanside. Some area residents believe the bagged fliers were placed on their property by someone moving on foot, rather than tossed from a moving car. Printed on one of side of the fliers in question is a version of the more than a century old, fictitious, antisemitic propaganda “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” which suggests that Jewish people are hoarding wealth but also plan to “introduce a progressive wealth tax,” among other hateful and known-to-be-dangerous nonsense. On the back of the fliers, versions of which have been spotted in a handful of U.S. states, is more antisemetic propaganda (depending on the flier batch, alternately declaring that “every single aspect” of the Biden Administration, the Covid pandemic, abortion, and/or the Walt Disney Com-

According to the ADL, the “Goyim” group is a loose network of mostly online neo-nazis who have popped up in New York, Florida, and a few other places, likely led by

around five or six right-wing, white supremacist individuals, including several based in California; the hate group’s online content also has thousands of followers. As news spread of the fliers’ distribution in Nassau, numerous politicians condemned the hateful propaganda, including State Assemblymember Judy Griffin of Rockville Centre, State Senator Anna Kaplan, Nassau County Legislator Carrié Solages, Governor Kathy Hochul, Senator

Chuck Schumer, and Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman. Senator Kaplan commented in a statement, “Under no circumstances can we remain silent in the face of the vile filth being disseminated by extremist groups seeking to poison our community with their repulsive rhetoric. The antisemitic trash being spread around Rockville Centre and Oceanside this week is just the latest in a long string of recent incidents impacting our community that are driven by antisemitism and hate, and we all need to stand together and send a strong message that we will never accept these groups or their shameful, un-American beliefs in our community.” In the days following the incidents, Legislator Arnold Drucker called for a formal investigation into the fliers’ distribution by the Nassau County Task Force to Combat Antisemitism. In a letter to Rabbi Elie Weinstock, chair of the task force, Drucker wrote, “I strongly believe that an investigation by the Task Force to Combat Antisemitism would be highly beneficial in our efforts to assuage the legitimate and growing concerns that Nassau County residents have expressed in recent days regarding these disgusting incidents. Furthermore, facts and data gathered during such an exercise will provide us with crucial guidance as we devise comprehensive public outreach campaigns and law enforcement strategies in the interest of preventing hateful acts like these in the future.” The Nassau County-based Anti-Racism Project, which offers trainings and has previously spoken out against unpermitted Proud Boy demonstrations in Rockville Centre, commented by email, “Messages of hate will not be tolerated. As an organization we will continue to educate, speakup and speak out and urge all communities to be forceful and follow all legal recourse in combating hate speech.” Assemblymember Judy Griffin said in a statement shortly after the first wave of fliers that she was “incensed and disgusted” that residents in her district had to discover such hateful garbage on their lawns. “This trash should not be left on anyone’s door, let alone under the cover of darkness,” Griffin said. “These loathsome and malicious individuals only encourage violence, hate, and division. I appreciate the efforts of Village of Rockville Centre Mayor, Rockville Centre Police, Nassau County Police Department, and Nassau County District Attorney’s Office in investigating this abhorrent incident thoroughly,” Griffin continued. “I absolutely condemn this anti-semitic attack and completely agree with this meaningful statement by Eric Post, director of the American Jewish Committee’s Long Island regional office: ‘Antisemitism is not just something that affects Jews. It affects all of us.’”
