TOP STORY

Neo-Nazi Gibberish Left On Lawns, Cars

Double-sided fliers with antitransgender and century-old antisemitic drivel found in three Nassau communities ANTON MEDIA GROUP STAFF editors@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,

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 previAntisemitic, antitransgender fliers were found folded into bags of lentils and tossed ously spoken out against unpermitted Proud or placed outside Oceanside and Rockville Centre homes.

Westbury Student Art Showcased Islamic Arts Exhibit On Tap At Old Westbury Gardens

ld 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,” said St. John. “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,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tahira DuPree Chase. “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.

This exhibition, “The Art of Islam: Ritual, Beauty, Patterns” is a collaboration between Westbury Arts and the Islamic Center of Long Island in Westbury. The exhibition features works by local and international Muslim artists and artisans, plus historical miniatures from the Mughal Empire. Various art forms are included, such as calligraphy, paintings, pottery, and metal works. Traditional Islamic art emphasizes the teachings of the Quran (ritual), the exquisiteness of the world crafted by a loving Creator (beauty), and repetitive, all-over surface decoration (pattern) suggesting the infinite. Dr. Faroque Khan of Jericho, co-chair of the art exhibition committee, stated, “Just as the religion of Islam embodies a way of daily living, this collection helps to illustrate concepts that have unified Muslims through time, space, and mode of artistic expression.” Part of the exhibit will be the handWestbury Arts President Julie Lyon carved ivory replica of the Taj Mahal, said, “Our hope is that this exhibition which is only 12 inches by 12 inches will allow all who visit to enjoy the art by 12 inches.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

IT’S HIGH TIME VILLAGE ENFORCED PARKS POLICY I am a life-long resident of and taxpayer in the Village of New Hyde Park (NHP) and would like to go on record re: the newly enforced park policies in our village as it relates to the most consequential time in the history of our young, less-than-a-square-mile village. As a result of the MTA’s Long Island Expansion Project, which began in 2017 (and continues to this day), NHP village taxpayers have had to endure years of chaos, noise, vibration, traffic detours, brown water alerts, repeated interruptions to our daily lives and a long list of inconveniences and damage to public and private properties. For many of us, our front yards and our backyards were no longer a safe refuge. For the last several years (and counting), our village government was consumed with addressing the challenges of the LIRR Project, some to the exclusion of other serious matters which related to our parks. At a time when residents were most in need of the peaceful respite afforded by our green spaces, few of us got the chance to use them. According to NHP Village’s Local law 127-1, amended on Feb. 7, 2012, “All parks, fields and playgrounds owned by the Village are for the exclusive use of Village residents and their guests, except ... as a member of an organized activity sponsored or sanctioned by the Board of Trustees.” This NHP Village ordinance was upheld by three prior and the present village administrations. Since its passage, signage has been posted at all entrances of our parks denoting this ‘residents only’ policy. Unfortunately, it was rarely heeded and/ or obeyed. Many people from surrounding communities or as far away as Queens took full advantage of the rule’s non-enforcement without ever contributing a dime (or a moment of public service) to maintain our parks. The record of inappropriate behaviors seen and documented in the parks by Nassau County Police, village officials, code enforcement officers, village park attendants, and village residents themselves has been downright appalling over the years. Sadly, many residents concluded that our parks were not only inaccessible, but they were unsafe, too. NHP village residents consider our two neighborhood parks as extensions of backyards. We, the people who exclusively pay for them, will no longer tolerate the abuses witnessed there; nor will we lose priority access to them. According to the newly announced parks

policy, everyone in Nassau County will continue to have access to our parks. But now NHP taxpayers will have priority access, and nonresident visitors must contribute to our parks’ maintenance. Countless other municipalities in our region have similar policies. With an attendant at the park’s entrance, NHP village taxpayers can be assured that when we visit, and most importantly, when our children visit, someone will be there to monitor who is in the park and supervise the activities that occur there. This policy helps to protect everyone: adults, children, and visitors, as well as taxpayer-funded property. It’s important to note that our village has traditionally welcomed all visitors to all village-sponsored events — our concerts, celebrations, and parades are open to the public free of charge. That includes free parking, food, activities, prizes for contests, etc. In addition, our village grants permits to organizations (e.g. scouts, cultural groups, schools) for the occasional use of our parks and facilities at minimal or no cost. The communities surrounding our village have never once reciprocated that generosity. Our village board was-is-and always will be responsive to the needs of the homeowners and taxpayers of our village. That is why we choose to live in an incorporated village. That’s why we choose to pay an additional tax above our town, county and school taxes. The new policies in place have taken a full 10 years to realize. That constitutes a generous gift to all those nonresidents who used our parks despite the signage at the entrances. The taxpaying public of New Hyde Park appreciate our NHP Village Board’s decision to stand up to the public pressure and finally represent the majority of taxpaying village residents who want our parks clean, accessible, and safe. by Diane Bentivegna, New Hyde Park

Feinstein Summer Concert Raises $3.6M To Advance Medical Research

rammy Award-winning and multiplatinum-selling artist Enrique Iglesias recently took center stage at the 17th annual Feinstein Summer Concert, which raised $3.6 million to support medical innovations. For more than two decades, researchers at Northwell Health’s Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research have made important discoveries in oncology, autoimmunity, neuroscience and genetics that translate into clinical advances and transform the treatment of conditions such as lupus, arthritis, sepsis, cancer, psychiatric illness and Alzheimer’s disease. More than 5,000 researchers and staff collaborate across five institutes in behavioral science, bioelectronic medicine, cancer research, health system science and molecular medicine. “The extraordinary work being done at the Feinstein Institutes continues to strengthen its reputation as a global leader in medical research,” Northwell President and CEO Michael J. Dowling said. “We are driving the breakthroughs that lead to better, longer, healthier lives.” Since its inception, the Feinstein Summer Concert series has raised more than $33 million to accelerate lifesaving

The event, held on July 14 at Old Westbury Gardens, helps Northwell continue to pioneer solutions and unearth new discoveries that are impacting the

trajectory of medicine around the world. “We are grateful for the tremendous support of our benefactors whose generosity fuels the innovations that can improve health for everyone in our communities,”

said Kevin J. Tracey, MD, president and CEO of the Feinstein Institutes and the Karches Family Distinguished Chair in Medical Research. In his remarks at the concert, Dr. Tracey highlighted the impact that inflammation has on people’s health, noting that the condition surpasses infection as the underlying cause of disease and illness. “What if we cured inflammation? At the Feinstein Institutes, my colleagues and I work every day on that question. Science and research change everything,” he said. Chris Wragge, co-anchor of CBS New York’s News This Morning and News at Noon, served as the event’s emcee for the sixth year. Catering and event design were coordinated by Larry Scott of Lawrence Scott Events. The Feinstein Institutes thanks its generous donors and its leadership sponsors of this year’s event: Susan and Leonard Feinstein, Donald Zucker and Barbara Hrbek Zucker and Waterfall Asset Management.

Cirque du Soleil Breaks The Ice With Crystal EMMA DUFFY editors@antonmediagroup.com

ver since Cirque du Soleil was founded by former street performers Guy Laliberté and Gilles Ste-Croix back in 1984, the troupe has performed on terra firma while bringing its acrobatic exploits to global audiences. With the new Cirque show Crystal, the Canadian-based entertainment company has put its performers on skates and taken to the ice. It has been in the works for a long time, but was paused due to COVID-19. The return has been long awaited and those working with Crystal are excited to share what they have in store. “I started back remotely in the beginning of November while I was still in Australia, so by that time, there had already been quite a lot of pre-planning,” Crystal Artistic Director Rob Tannion said. Despite all of this planning, there have still been challenges in their path. Acrobatics requires teamwork that cannot be practiced up to par by a singular individual. During the peak of COVID-19, it was particularly difficult for the team to run practices the way they are used to. “One of the things we had to sort out is how do we touch each other in a safe space,” Tannion said. “There are 14 artists, a combination of acrobats and skaters on stage that need to have physical contact.” The show has some fantastic tricks to watch, such as performer Michael Helgren’s favorite, the pendulum poles act. In this act, skaters and acrobats work together to fly along poles. However, there is more to this show than just flips and tricks. This show tells the tale of a woman on her journey of self-discovery. It starts off with immediate drama, grabbing attention right away. In dire situations, a woman is forced to figure out who she truly is. “If there’s a message from the short story, it’s about really fighting for what you believe in and coming to terms with yourself, facing your shadows, owning your shadows and going on that journey of discovery,” Tannion said. This is not a typical Cirque du Soleil show, it is more cohesive than those in the past. Many who have seen the show and been involved in its development also believe that it has become more evolved overall. After their hiatus, the show is coming back in a fuller and more realized form. “One thing that’s different and unique about this show is generally Cirque du Soleil shows are a little bit more abstract and it’s maybe a little difficult to follow the storyline,” Helgren said. “This show does a beautiful job of taking you through the

storyline and you really feel like you’re a part of Crystal’s emotions.” As much fun as they have had working on the show, it is even more exciting for the performers and creator’s to see the audience’s reactions. Their work is done out of passion, but it is also done out of their love for seeing fans pleased with the work they have put on. They see people laugh, cry and cheer at their work and that is what they have been missing during the COVID-19 times. “Just connecting with the audiences again [is special]. When a performer has a few years off with no audience interaction, it kind of puts you on a low,” Helgren said. “Being back in front of audiences again, definitely gives you that high you get when you’re on stage.” Not surprisingly, this show has a distinct international flavor. There are performers representing 17 different nationalities speaking 11 different languages that travel together on a week-in and week-out basis. Despite all these different groups of people traveling together under one roof, they make one family. After traveling, practicing and performing together, an unbreakable bond has been created. “Crystal has a really incredible group of people,” Tannion said, “We are almost 100 people and while I know it is like a clique, we are like a giant family.” Tannion added, “We’ve had good times and bad times within that, but in general, it’s great to be back on that kind of rollercoaster of emotions with these people who share the same passion.”

It’s not a stretch to say he’s the ultimate family and friends guy. On any given day, you can find him at a school or sports function for his kids or helping a

neighbor with a backyard project. It was at the insistent support of his family and friends that led to the launching of his radio show (“I’m not a radio guy but I can communicate with people really well.”) His weekly show on 103.9FM is already one of the most popular on the station. His website, www.anthonythemoneyguy. com allows those outside of the listening area to stream the program and get further information about it.

magine walking through a crowded airport, rushing to catch your flight and there in the middle of the terminal is a radio studio with a guy giving financial advice live. Well you don’t have to imagine anymore. It’s a reality at Long Island MacArthur Airport courtesy of NewsRadio 103.9FM and that guy is Anthony the Money Guy. Veteran Long Island business pundit Anthony Punzone is heard on the station every Monday night at 5 p.m. dishing out the latest information and assistance to small business owners and entrepreneurs alike. A veteran of Wall Street, Punzone left a highly successful career about 20 years ago to branch out on his own. Having created his flagship brand, VAVAR Global, he glided seamlessly into more business services and telecoms before retiring several years ago. At the height of the pandemic, Punzone started thinking about coming out of retirement. He saw an opportunity to help people while doing something he loves. Most people were laying low during the COVID-19 crisis but not Punzone. He started up Wall Street Banking Services.

Punzone the right guy to talk about money matters today. “I decided to open my own firm, specializing in small and medium businesses that need financing,” he explained, “It’s an important niche that needs to be served.” Punzone points out that small business owners are the backbone of the local and national economy. Main Street always funnels into Wall Street. As his radio show and business continue to grow in popularity, Punzone remembers his roots. He is always involved in community programs and is looking for guests for his radio show from the local business arena. “My advice to all business owners is to secure financing when you do not need it so it’s there when you do,” he advised. Many financial gurus today are quick to predict the death of the small business market. Don’t tell that to Anthony Punzone, who believes in the entrepreneural spirit because he has been living it for the past two decades. Going forward, he looks to continue to help small business owners prosper and grow, whether it’s on the air, on the web or in his office.

Habits Versus Rituals Focusing on creating rituals, rather than habits, can enhance your partnership. Dr. John Gottman notes that rituals of connection can bring partners together and strengthen relationships. Psychotherapist Esther Perel shares that while routines may help us get through our days, it is the rituals that help us in life. She distinguishes between routines and rituals and notes that routines are concrete, repetitive actions, such as jogging every morning. Rituals, on the other hand, are like maps that help us navigate situations. These maps can also enhance connection and intimacy. Changing the routine of solo jogging into a couple ritual, may involve partners enjoying nature by going for a hike together. By doing this they are sharing something and building their connection. The difference, Perel notes, is in the details and what they symbolize. Take for example, Courtney and John, who have been married for

five years. They love each other deeply but have recently begun to feel as if they have fallen out of step. They have extremely busy schedules and have unintentionally pulled away from one another by engaging with their work and other commitments. They share many daily habits, such as getting up at 6 every morning, each exercising for 45 minutes through individualized workout routines, one person starting the coffee while the other showers and then switching. They have

breakfast while scanning the daily news and rush out of the house to begin their day. Sometimes when running behind, they forget to hug or kiss goodbye and even when they do, it’s more mechanical than memorable. While it would be wonderful for them to take a break, put all their work aside, go on and spend time reconnecting, that simply isn’t realistic. By being thoughtful and making small changes by converting habits into rituals, you can make a large impact on your relationship. Let’s re-examine their mornings. • Instead of each exercising for 45 minutes, listening to headphones or taking independent classes, they can opt for a partnered workout, in which they engage with one another. They can also spend those 45 minutes by going for a walk/jog/ run around their neighborhood, talking and connecting as they go.

• Instead of reading the news while having coffee and eating, they can use that time to talk with one another about what upcoming daily events they are most excited about. They can also use this time to plan other ways to connect once they get home in the evening. • Instead of rushing out the door, they can pause and intentionally connect with one another by embracing (for at least 20 seconds) or giving one another a meaningful kiss when they exit the door. Adding an expression of gratitude for your partner to your goodbye ritual can make your parting from one another even more meaningful.

first comes from a remote worker forced back to the office. “Brutal and mind blowing. I’m back to getting bombarded from people eating fish at their desk and never shutting up. After work, I buy a Mocha Grande, hit the golf course parking lot and hang out.” There you go. Bobby’s golf course hang out prepares him for whatever awaits him at home. Coffee is a popular companion but, the following show the art form with a different prop. Brian is a stockbroker who takes the train into Manhattan. Even if the ride back is solemn, he needs time after work to balance himself. “The hell with going out with the brokers after work for a few martinis. I’ll get tortured by them the

next day anyway with how they’re working off the hangover. When I get off the train, I drive to the least crowded parking lot and hang out. I have one cold, premium dark beer sitting in a cooler ready to go. I sip that baby slow and my head calms down. No sweat.” Yeah, Bob you better calm down. My buddy, Joey, is an actor who gave me a nice briefing on how to hang out in nature. “Hey, hanging out is big with me. Check this out. I landed a role in a mystery movie. The actress, a gorgeous brunette, is practicing lines with me and keeps going off script. Not a big deal but after rehearsal, I needed to hang out. I headed uptown to the 72nd Street entrance to Central Park by Strawberry Fields and spotted Chesty King. He boogies over and pulls out a bag of joints. I laugh, hand him a couple of fins, mosey into the park, climb up on a rock and light up. That Central Park hangout makes me a new man.” No doubt, hanging out soothes the savage beast. In Joey’s case he is alone on a rock. One point is that parking lot situations happen. A few weeks back, I sat eating a salad during an afternoon hang out in a small strip mall. Out of nowhere, the wind kicked up to 40 mph

gusts. From the far reaches of the lot, a grocery a cart starts rolling toward me picking up speed quickly. I didn’t have time to put down my fork when it nailed my front grill. So, keep your eyes moving. What I’ve noticed lately while hanging out is people splitting time between relaxation and chores. I saw a guy cleaning the rims and waxing his Camaro, while a few spaces down, a woman had a garbage can on the ground shredding documents. No kidding. Finally, I once watched as two guys in a Ford F350 built an entertainment unit and then began to install the electronics. Beautiful thing to watch. I was late getting back to my desk. Hanging out eases the brutality of the eight-hour day while smoothing the anxiety related to the avalanche of responsibilities awaiting you. Anyone would agree hanging out is a pleasure like no other. Unless you consider a lobster dinner in a neighbors’ backyard on a warm summer night more appealing.

Adventures In Hanging Out Before I became a remote worker, you may have seen me at a 7-Eleven or Dunkin’ Donuts, sitting in my truck doing nothing. Let me explain. During my commuter life, after crawling through thick traffic, I’d arrive at the office and be immediately pounced on by the office manager going berserk about me parking too close to his new Range Rover. Then, like clockwork, somebody in the cafeteria would dump their food on me. At quitting time, the workplace had left my head buzzing like there’s a jackhammer planted inside. I would drive to a Dunkin’, grab a coffee, find a corner spot, kick back and enjoy the act of just hanging out. All around America, any age group, driving a beat-up pick-up truck or sporting a Ferrari you’ll find hanging out. Once experienced, you’ll understand the popularity. After a brain twisting eight-hour day, why go directly home just to be thrown back into the line of fire: the landscaper tore up your fence or having to fix the toilet that overflowed before you left that morning. My suggestion is before you attempt a Niagara Falls of responsibilities, go hang out. I’ve talked to friends about their experiences with hanging out. The

Can’t We Just Be Happy For ‘Happy?’ In June of this year, the New York Court of Appeals ruled, in a 5-2 decision, that “Happy” the elephant is an elephant after all. You would think that with all the terrible things happening in New York State, like crime, taxes and government corruption, they wouldn’t waste time listening to a case about whether an elephant may or may not be a human. Animal rights activists have advocated for animals that can’t speak for themselves for years. Cages resembling prison cells are a thing of the past. Thanks to the activists, who sometimes get a bad rap, visitors to the zoo can observe most of these animals in a more natural habitat. Sometimes, animals in their natural habitat can be a little boring. Since they no longer have to run for their lives from predators, they spend a lot of time lying around in the shade. And who can blame them? If you want to see a cheetah sprint across the field and take down its prey, turn on the Discovery Channel. But what makes “Happy” the elephant any different from “Fred” the lion in the Bronx Zoo? Well, Fred didn’t have the Nonhuman

Rights Project in his corner. Happy, who recently received a mailing from AARP when she turned 50, has called the Bronx Zoo home for the last 45 years. Although the Bronx Zoo has agreed not to take on any additional elephants for exhibits in the future, it still maintains a home for both Happy and another elephant, Patty. Unfortunately, the two do not get along and live in separate enclosures, divided by a fence. In early 2020, the Nonhuman Rights Project challenged the zoo’s right to confine Happy, arguing that the situation amounted to “a cruel confinement.” They feel that since Happy is an intelligent being,

they could sue under habeas corpus rights against improper detention. A trial court judge denied their motion. An appellate court then upheld the original ruling. That set up the hearing for the Court of Appeals in June of 2022. Although both sides agreed Happy should not just be set loose to roam the streets of Upper Manhattan, the project wanted her moved to a proper sanctuary for elephants. And that’s where their argument no longer held water. Chief Judge Janet DiFiore ruled that the relief they request is not from confinement but from one type of confinement to another. That request proves Happy can’t speak for herself and therefore is non-human. No one could possibly answer the question as to what would be better for Happy. Would she be better off staying in the only environment she has known for the last 45 years, with over an acre of land to roam free in and loving, familiar handlers? Or would she be better off being placed in a new home with more elephants to socialize with? Where is Dr. Doolittle when you need him?

Judge Rowan Wilson, one of the two dissenting votes, agreed that “an elephant is not a member of the homo sapiens species. At the same time, an elephant is not a desk chair or an earthworm.” Well, I’m glad we cleared that up. So where does that leave Happy, now that she has officially been declared non-human and can return to being an elephant again? Well, at 50 years old, she still has about 20 years of life expectancy. It sounds to me like she is already in an assisted living facility where they are taking excellent care of her.

Could you imagine the chaos if the court sided with the Nonhuman Rights Project? Louie the Labrador and all other animals would have the right not to be kept in captivity. Where would we be then? If dogs ever earn the right not to be kept in captivity, who will pick up after them? Paul DiSclafani is an award-winning columnist and author living in Massapequa for more than 50 years.

Guidance Center’s Innovative Program For Latina Teens July was BIPOC Mental Health Month, which puts the spotlight on the wellbeing of Black, Indigenous and People of Color communities. One of North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center’s signature programs, the Latina Girls Project, was created in response to the alarming rates of depression, school refusal, self-harm, suicidal ideation and attempted suicides by Hispanic teen girls. More than a decade ago, our team at the Guidance Center noticed an increasingly large number of first-generation Latinas were coming to us with severe depression, self-harming behaviors and suicidal thoughts. Many had stopped attending school and some had been hospitalized for suicide attempts. The research backed up what we were seeing at the time: Hispanic teenage girls were significantly more likely than their non-Hispanic peers to suffer from depression, thoughts of suicide and suicide attempts. More recent research, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,

PARENTING PLUS Erika Perez-Tobon

showed that 10.5 percent of Latina adolescents aged 10–24 years in the U.S. attempted suicide in 2016, compared to 7.3 percent of white female, 5.8 percent of Latino and 4.6 percent of white male teens. In response to this crisis, we formed the Latina Girls Project, an innovative program that employs individual, group and family therapy, along with monthly outings and other activities, all designed to tackle issues such as depression, low self-esteem, social anxiety, school refusal, self-harming behaviors or suicidal ideation.

Some of our clients who were born outside the U.S. have witnessed violence in their homelands and many have experienced complex trauma since a young age. Those who were born in the U.S. are impacted by the generational trauma experienced by their parents and limitations around communicating with their parents. Regardless of where they were born, a big part of the reason these girls are struggling is because they are pulled in conflicting directions, with their parents wanting them to adhere to the traditional values of their homeland, while the girls seek to integrate into American culture and find acceptance among their peers. The result: Parents are often extremely overprotective; they won’t allow their daughters to venture out and participate in activities such as sleepovers, dating or trips to the mall. Even if the teens are allowed to go out with their friends, they are required to have a chaperone, such as a parent or brother. In addition, they are often relegated to gender-biased roles, required to cook, clean and take

care of their siblings while their brothers are treated, as one girl said, “like princes.” During bilingual individual, family and group therapy sessions, the girls realize that they can trust their therapists, many of whom also grew up as first-generation Latinas. The therapists teach the girls healthy strategies to deal with stress and depression and effective ways to communicate with their parents. For their part, the parents become more compassionate about their daughters’ desire to fit in, and they also understand the need to let their teens separate in age-appropriate ways. One of our Latina clients put it this way: “My parents learned that I just wanted them to be there for me and listen. They learned that it doesn’t help to question why I feel the way I do but to accept it and support me.” In addition to therapy, the program incorporates monthly supervised outings to places such as theaters, museums and other cultural and educational sites. These trips, made possible by the generosity of John and

Janet Kornreich, expose the girls to the world in a way that would never have happened if not for this Guidance Center program. The trips serve to boost the teens’ confidence and sense of independence, and the girls also discover that there’s a great big world of opportunity out there for them, which allows them to feel hopeful about their futures. The trips also offer respite to the parents who are relieved to know that their daughters are in safe hands. As one girl put it, “The Latina Girls Project helped my mother and I communicate and become very close, and the monthly outings showed me a world I never would have seen. I felt that I wanted to be a part of the larger world. The trips gave me the feeling that I could be truly happy in my life.” Erika Perez-Tobon, LCSW, who is originally from Venezuela, is the bilingual Clinical Supervisor of North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center’s Latina Girls Project, which is located at the agency’s Westbury location.

According to the New York State

Department of Health, chronic diseases such as asthma, cancer, diabetes, health disease and stroke are the leading causes of disability and death in the United States. These conditions account for seven of every ten deaths and affect 90 million Americans. The good news is that these diseases are preventable through a healthy lifestyle, with simple lifestyle choices, such as regular physical activity and a balanced diet. The Long Island Health Collaborative is a huge proponent of walking for its many physical and mental health benefits, and the activity’s power to prevent and manage chronic disease. Walk with a Doc was started to “encourage physical activity and reduce the effects of a sedentary lifestyle.” Today, Walk with a Doc is inspiring communities through movement and conversation across the nation and the world. About the Long Island Health Collaborative The Long Island Health Collaborative is a partnership of Long Island’s hospitals, county health departments, physicians, health providers, community-based social and human service organizations, academic institutions, health plans, local government, and the business sector, all engaged in improving the health of Long Islanders with a focus on the reduction of chronic diseases.

The achievement marked a major milestone in their careers and were a recognition of the years of hard work and dedication. “We pride ourselves on being an example for our students and putting forth the best versions of ourselves in our schools,” said Plainview-Old Bethpage Superintendent of Schools Dr. Mary O’Meara. “Day-in and dayout, these teachers, administrators and staff have exemplified this philosophy by proving that no matter the obstacle, nothing is impossible. This recognition is well deserved.” Among their higher ups who recommended the staff members for tenure, many noted that most had only just started their careers in education when the coronavirus pandemic hit. Despite that tremendous challenge, however, they had each risen to the occasion.

Helping Kids And Parents Cope

hile it’s still high summer, school is just weeks away. Already, many families are starting to feel anxiety about the return to school. The last two and a half years have been chaotic for families, and while the disruption of COVID-19 has lessened, its effects still reverberate for many. Family and Children’s Association’s (FCA) system of care can help families prepare for the upcoming school year and beyond. Its family focused approach offers a variety of free and Medicaid-supported programs designed to help prepare children of all ages and their families to cope, and even thrive inside and outside the classroom. Counseling is available for children of every socio-economic background and for non-English speakers. The FCA team works with the family to assess their needs, present a choice of services that they qualify for and empower the family to decide. In addition to working on an individual child’s goals, the caseworker can also help the family determine additional resources that would benefit them.

Last year, FCA helped 333 clients. There are waitlists for children on Medicaid. Health Home Care Management and Home and Community Based Services include pre-vocational services, community self-advocacy training supports and planned respite. Children and Family Treatment and Support Services include in-home therapy, family peer

support, community psychiatric support and treatment, and psychosocial rehab. Telehealth services are also available, but FCA staff have found that in most cases, kids don’t respond as well to virtual meetings. They are tired of that route and prefer face to face meetings. Ninety to 95 percent of visits

are in person. However, if there is COVID-19 in the house or other issues that preclude at-home visits, telehealth visits prevent a disruption of services. FCA employs a comprehensive wrap around service approach, bringing all these services in-house to best provide stability

for the child living with you in your home. Having too many different providers and agencies can cause a chaotic environment that engenders more chaos. Having one case manager eliminates overlap and encourages collaboration among service providers. Families respond well to this method. The earlier a family can get services, the better the outcome. FCA’s Children’s Mental Health and Wellness division sees children as young as 6 years old and up to age 21. Kids learn coping skills; parents learn management skills. FCA’s goal is to keep the child out of the system. FCA helps link children to services that they are eligible to receive and additional resources to maintain a healthy level of coping with a lower level of support. The average FCA consumer uses these services from 12 to 18 months. Some kids can be in therapy longer if needed. After a course of therapy and counseling, FCA links the family with providers on the outside to help them keep on course. All FCA services are confidential, and there is never any disclosure of services without parental consent. FCA will work with the child’s school, if requested, with proper parental consent. FCA programs operate throughout Nassau County, and in part of western Suffolk and eastern Queens. Visit www.fcali.org for more information.

In addition to a $50 gift card to redeem at the nursery, he now has a chance to win a $500 grand prize. Jonathan Green is a leading supplier of grass seed, soil enhancers, fertilizers and organic lawn and garden products, all available at Hicks Nurseries in Westbury. “Hick’s Nurseries staff have always advised me how best to use the Johnathan Green line of products,” Robinson said. “My lawn went from brown and weeds to a golf course-like thick, dark green grass lawn.” Robinson said that his wife, Angela, entered their front lawn photo in the Show Us Your Lawn contest by Jonathan Green, Inc. and were surprisingly notified that they won. “I was so pleased and quickly shared with Hick’s Nurseries, where I will continue to purchase my Johnathan Green lawn products with the gift certificate,” Robinson said. With the brutal weather we are having on Long Island this summer, everyone wants to know the secret to maintaining a healthy green lawn.

1. Start early in March cultivating the soil.

2. Buy Johnathan Green-UP for sodding and seeding. 3. Use the correct Johnathan Green Seed for your lawn—I use ALL SUN in the front and SUN/SHADE in the back. 4. Use Johnathan Green Magical pH soil conditioner to get that dark plush thick green lawn. 5. Maintain watering and keep soil moist as needed.

LONG ISLAND WEEKLY

Keeping the Dialogue Going with Howard Jones DAVE GIL de RUBIO

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

f synthesizers are the engine for Howard Jones’ creative drive, then positivity is the fuel. It has been since Jones broke onto the international music scene with his 1983 hit single “New Song” and has continued to be the case with the current four-piece album concept he’s in the middle of recording and releasing that started with 2015’s Engage. In 2019, Transform was followed by this year’s Dialogue and next year’s Global Citizen set to wrap up this overarching concept. It’s a rather straightforward approach the English musician has been working within over the past seven years. “Engage was about not just being a bystander—be involved in what’s going on around you and don’t think that you don’t have any effect on the world and your environment because you do,” Jones explained. “Transform was about if we want to change the world and change things for the better, we have to start with ourselves. We have to work on ourselves and our behavior towards other people and ourselves as well. And Dialogue is what I just described—the importance of communicating towards each other. The next one, which I will probably start next year is Global Citizen and that’s putting all those three concepts into action and believing that you can have an effect on the world as a global citizen.” Not unlike the rest of the world, Jones found himself isolated by the pandemic lockdown as he was embarking on the recording of Dialogue. The dark mood of uncertainty that came with this global situation meant lyrics came later, but in the end, Jones was able to surmount the challenges presented with being a oneman band, particularly after contracting a post-vaccination case of COVID-19. “I couldn’t really work with other people on this, so it was me, my growing synthesizer collection, software and studio,” he recalled. “In a way that makes it quite focused I think. I had plenty of time to experiment, try some new things and get some really great sounds together. I got to spend days on just one sound to make it really special. And having that amount of time was a blessing to really experiment. I suddenly remembered that I used to do a lot of harmony vocals—layered vocals and big multi-harmonized vocals and I

got back into that idea. And I wanted my voice to sound different every time I used one of those harmonized vocals and I was experimenting. There was one point that I got COVID-19—I was completely vaccinated and everything but when I got it, I sort of lost my full voice. I thought I was going to have to try and do something different, so I sang in a different way more quietly. I got a really different sound and I was really quite excited about that. If you’re doing all your own backing vocals yourself, you need to make yourself sound different to differentiate between the lead and backing vocal. It worked for me.” And while Jones did all the creative-lifting, he did get a compositional assist from

maybe throughout the rest of my career because we get on very well. For him, it’s about trying to find time because he’s the busiest man in the universe.” While this string of albums is heavily electronically driven, Jones will be mixing it up during his live shows with the help of touring Robin Boult and Nick Beggs, late of Kajagoogoo. “It’s an electronic show and we’re going to be debuting a few tracks from the Dialogue album along with a couple of tracks from Transform and one from Engage as well,” he said. “The fans really follow everything I do and I really must look after that as well as playing the hits. That would be really mean not to do that. There is a section in the show where we go acoustic. It’s my guitarist Robin, me and Nick Beggs, who is tour on with me as well from Kajagoogoo Howard Jones fame, who has been a close friend of mine (Photo by for many years, all take part in this acoustic Mikesfox/CC section where I play things like ‘No One Is BY-SA 3.0) to Blame’ and ‘Life In One Day.’ We also do an acoustic version of ‘Too Shy,’ which the audience absolutely loves because Nick is there and he wrote it. He plays that amazing bass solo in it. It’s kind of nice to take it away from the banging electronic tunes and go acoustic and then go back to them. It seems to work as a great dynamic.” An added bonus is longtime pal Midge Ure (Ultravox) serving as the opening act (“He’s an absolute total legend and a really good friend of mine. I feel very fortunate.”) Looking to the remainder of this year and into 2023, Jones and his fan base have plenty to look forward to between Global Citizen completing his four-album musical concept along with a concert album (Live at Union Chapel) and a collection of non-synthesizer-based material that he’d been working on for a number of years (Piano Composed). And while he’s understandably excited about this burst of creativity that’s BT (aka Brian Transeau), the American going to take him into the next year, Howard musician/DJ/electronic music pioneer, Jones has always clung to the philosophy of who became a close friend of Jones after gratitude driving him forward and refusing the latter came out to see him head up an to get caught up in the highs and lows of the ambitious orchestral project in Miami back music industry and life in general. in 2015. It’s a connection Jones has come to “I think it’s very important to be happy treasure. with your work and one of the best ways to “On the new album, we did two or three be happy is to really appreciate the situation tracks and BT was great,” Jones said. “For you find yourself in, even if it’s difficult or those two tracks—‘Celebrated Together’ you’re having problems or whether you’re and ‘Be the Hero’—he’d sent me some seed soaring because it’s going well,” he said. ideas for tracks quite a long time ago. I used “Just really appreciate things because if it’s a bit of that in the writing of them and I’m not going well, then you can learn a ton of really hoping that we may get a remix from stuff from that to make it better. If things are him based on one of those songs. I know he going really well, don’t get carried away, was particularly excited about ‘Be the Hero.’ because that may stop you from doing great We probably will continue to work together work in the future.”

y friend and I left Montana a day early because we were worried about the lack of transportation. We had met a nice lady from Texas who had told us she sold her house and most of her belongings after retiring so that she could travel the country. She was nice enough to give us a ride to the Amtrak station, as well as bring us to Glacier National Park beforehand so that we could enjoy our last day. We arrived in Spokane, WA, in the middle of the night and settled into an Airbnb we booked for the night, which was very comfy. But once we woke up we had to move ourselves into the other Airbnb we had booked. Luckily, the host allowed us to keep our bags there before check-in so that we could go and do laundry. While doing laundry at a nearby laundromat, we wandered into this cat café next door and asked the barista what she suggested doing in the area. She told us simply that the Pacific Northwest loves coffee. And we could see that was very true. There were small coffee drive-thrus everywhere. I wondered to myself, “Who loves coffee more? New York or the Pacific Northwest?” The bus system in Spokane was incredible. It was extremely reliable for us to get around and it came exactly on time. The community was also clearly proud of their bus system, as they had murals for it inside the bus station. We saw beautiful waterfalls in the Riverfront Park, which took us almost all afternoon to explore. The following day we explored all the gardens in the area. After Spokane, we had an Amtrak connecting bus to Seattle. We got to Seattle right at check-in into our hotel/Airbnb (a hotel had listed its rooms as Airbnb). We hiked up this incline from the station to the hotel, which was about a nine-minute walk. And by the time we got there, we were totally out of breath. Opening the door, there were another two flights of stairs. I tried to see if there was an elevator we could use to bring up our luggage, but the owner of the hotel reminded us that it was built in 1910. The Panama Hotel, the owner told us, was popular among young Japanese professionals until they were forced into internment camps during World War Two. Many of the guests had left behind their belongings when they were captured and many of those belongings went unclaimed for decades. Today, those belongings can be seen in the basement of the hotel. Unfortunately, we did not really get to

Minneapolis

Olympic National Park was absolutely breathtaking.

While getting this picture made us late to return our rental car, it was absolutely worth seeing the Pacific Ocean for the first time.

explore the hotel because the next day we would be taking a road trip to Olympic National Park. We picked up our rental car through an app called Toro, which allows people to rent out their personal cars at usually a much lower price than traditional car rentals. And then we headed to Olympic National Park. It was a nice drive to a very beautiful park. We saw mountains in the distance with snow peaks and valleys of hills with evergreen trees. We also saw a creek of bright blue water and a waterfall that fed it. Navigating the park, at times, was a bit frightening because some of the roads sat right next to a cliff and there were no guardrails. I practically held my breath going at about 25 miles per hour as I drove down the mountain. We took a detour to Forks, WA, where the Twilight series takes place. It was cool being there and we got a really good pasta alfredo with smoked salmon there. But then my friend and I debated whether or not we should go see the sea stacks, as it was about 6:30 p.m. and we had to get the car back by 11:30 p.m. with a four-hour car ride in-between. We ended up doing it, spending five minutes on the beautiful beach. But we’d learn that while the beach was beautiful, it would cost us. We were supposed to get back to Seattle by 11 p.m. according to the GPS, but that’s if you’re going the speed limit. It’s hard to go the speed limit when you’re driving on dark, windy and narrow country roads while cars with their brights on come barreling towards you. That moment made me realize I was glad we took the train instead of driving because these roads are not like the roads on Long Island. But lo and behold we made it back, only 10 minutes late. The car lender was pretty nice about it. And it worked out, as it has been for us. That’s what this trip has taught us. As long as we try and we’re creative, it just seems to work out. This is part four of a series on traveling the country via Amtrak.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The space between a private and public self is personal. You decide what you want people to know. This week, you’ll take some license and have fun with this, using it as an opportunity for creativity and empowerment. You’ll draw lucky people and situations to you as you thrive on every front.

Solution: 13 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Practice radical self-acceptance and watch how your energy frees up and you become more capable and powerful in your daily life. Think of yourself as completely ready and ideally suited to the challenges of the week. Nothing about you requires improvement. All efforts are optional and for your own delight.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). How you see the other person is a direct reflection of how you see yourself. This will be true when you experience someone as the hero and just as true when they’re the villain. With a curious mind and in the spirit of nonjudgment, you’ll find insight in the fascinating way your nuanced opinions reflect your psyche. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It is said that the world is a picture of what you want it to be, but had you painted this view with your own brush, you certainly would have left out certain things and added others. You’re even more creative than usual this week and will figure out a way to realize certain additions and subtractions to your scene. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ve learned not to prize the correctness, which is among the most boring virtues. The mature person doesn’t need to be right all the time. Success and creativity require a tolerance for mistakes. Your big strength this week is a willingness to face inaccuracies, thus honing better methods and higher truths. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ve demanded more of your performance than is reasonable or kind. What’s really needed is more practice. How can you arrange this? What would it take to repeat the action until it’s second nature? Relaxation is key here, too. When you feel yourself tighten up, take a breath and try another way. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What stands between you and what you want may seem like a lot -- people, rules, power structures, physical barriers, detritus -and yet when you move forward, you’ll find your energy disperses in such a way as to flow softly past all obstacles. True to your water sign nature, you will find the path of least resistance. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). To accept the good with the bad becomes much easier when you understand that you cannot possibly know which is which. Whatever your philosophy may be these days, the action that will fall right in line with it is to open to acceptance. These are the right events for this time; believe it.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

You’re on a quest for beauty, and you’ll find much of it this solar return, though even when complexity and trouble show up instead, you’ll deem this journey utterly worthwhile. Following a passion, you’ll hone your skills. You’ll add members to your team who not only fulfill a job but make you laugh, too. Rearranging your environment and schedule is important work, too. As you make yourself more comfortable, you provide a sense of belonging to others. You’ll grow in compassion.

Good card-reading is an art unto itself. Declarer does not actually see the defenders’ hands as each card is played, but many times he can visualize their holdings just as if they were in open view. Take this case where South was not alert to a situation he could have deduced without much effort. He ducked the spade lead, East winning with the queen and returning a spade to dummy’s ace. Declarer could count eight sure tricks and saw that the ninth would have to come from a successful finesse in diamonds. So he led the ten of diamonds at trick two and

let it ride. West won with the king and cashed his spades, and South went down one. The simple fact is that declarer’s focus at the start of play as to where his ninth trick might come from was basically misplaced. Instead, he should have expended more energy on determining the meaning of West’s opening lead. West’s five-of-spades lead was highly revealing. It was inconceivable that he would have led the five from a holding of, say, the K-Q-J5-4, in which case he would have led the king. Declarer could therefore assume that East had the king, queen or jack, which in turn meant that the ace was the right play from dummy at trick one. Observe what happens in the actual case if declarer takes the first spade with the ace. Whatever East plays on the trick, the defenders cannot cash four spade tricks after declarer takes a losing diamond finesse at trick two. If West leads a spade to East’s queen, East has no spade to return, while if West cashes the K-J of spades, South’s ten becomes a stopper. If it turns out that East’s original holding is three spades headed by an honor, which is certainly possible, there’s still nothing to fear. In that case, West started with only four spades, so the defenders cannot score five tricks.

Tomorrow: Deceptive defensive play.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You do the hard things when they come along, and you’re grateful for the opportunity that lives inside a challenge. Even so, it would be foolish to seek out trouble or create problems where they don’t already exist. Not everything in life is easy, but certainly a lot of it should be! Seek ease this week.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have style and it shines through all the time, but those close to you have gotten used to it. They don’t take you for granted because they are horrible people; they take you for granted because it’s human nature. This week, you’ll spend time in a new environment and love all the props and attention you get there.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You do your best to frame the past in a way that doesn’t have you feeling resentful. It’s not too hard for you because you really do believe that everyone is only doing the best they can. In some cases, it wasn’t enough, but you will get what you need elsewhere. New opportunities for healing arise in fresh faces.

Salisbury Road Dedicated To FDNY Firefighter

upervisor Don Clavin, Councilman Anthony D’Esposito and Councilman Thomas Muscarella recently joined family, friends and neighbors of FDNY firefighter and Salisbury resident Daniel Monahan to remember his dedicated service to the community during the renaming of Lydia Lane in Salisbury as Firefighter Daniel M. Monahan Lane. Also attending were Hempstead Town Clerk Kate Murray, Receiver of Taxes Jeanine Driscoll, FDNY Captain Doug Mitchel of Ladder 38, members of the FDNY Ceremonial Unit and the Nassau County Firefighters Pipes & Drums. “Daniel always carried a dedicated and hardworking mindset, something he brought not only to the FDNY but also to the residents of Hempstead Town. He was a hands-on man, even with the smallest of tasks,” said Clavin. “Daniel always strived to help others in need and was fearless on the job throughout his career. The Town of Hempstead remembers this dedicated neighbor, firefighter and 9/11 first responder and is proud to dedicate Firefighter Daniel M. Monahan Lane in his memory.” “Daniel’s determination, drive, and persistence paints the picture of an ideal fireman, something I always strived to be as a member of my own hometown fire department” added D’Esposito. “It is an absolute honor to be able to eternalize his name in the community he and his family grew up in.” Monahan first volunteered at the East Meadow Fire Department before passing the FDNY test at 21 years old. He was first assigned to Engine 45 in the South Bronx

Monahan family members and Town of Hempstead elected officials gathered to rename a street in honor of FDNY firefighter Daniel Monahan. Pictured at far right is Supervisor Don Clavin. At far left is Councilman Thomas Muscarella, next to Councilman Anthony D’Esposito. (Town of Hempstead) in 1978. Two years later, Daniel married his high school sweetheart, Gerri, whose family of active firefighters is what originally inspired Monahan and his career path. Shortly after, Monahan was diagnosed with his first cancer. After a series of treatments and chemotherapy, Monahan and his firefighting family persuaded doctors to allow Daniel to continue his dedication to helping others in the community and returned to work. From his series of accomplishments ranging from receiving the Daily News Hero Award to being awarded the Dr. J.W. Goldenkranz Medal for saving a woman’s life, Daniel has always put the well-being of others before

his own. “The Town of Hempstead vows to always pay homage to those who have sacrificed so much for their community,” said Muscarella. “This street is a tribute to the countless heroic acts conducted by Firefighter Daniel Monahan.” After retiring from his firefighting career, Daniel became a full-time operating engineer for Local 15. On September 11, 2001, Monahan put his skills and experience to use by going to Ground Zero and assisted with many rescue operations. The following year, Monahan was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia that had no medical cure

or treatment. Two years later, Daniel died at the age of 57. Monahan’s street renaming commenced with bagpiper Robert V. Hughes of the Nassau County Firefighters Pipes & Drums, followed by the FDNY Ceremonial Unit Color Guard. The National Anthem was performed by Joseph Walz of the FDNY Ceremonial Unit. Muscarella was joined by Monahan’s family in leading the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by an opening prayer by FDNY Chaplain FDNY Rabbi Joseph Potasnik. Remarks were offered by Clavin and D’Esposito and memories were shared from Daniel’s beloved daughter, Meaghan Gray, and close cousin, Nick Arrigan. Town officials concluded the street renaming event with the presentation of a commemorative street sign to Daniel’s family, followed by the unveiling of a permanent sign at the corner of Lydia Lane and Valentines Road. Added D’Esposito, “This street will serve as a permanent memory of Daniel Monahan’s dutiful service to the FDNY and residents not only of this community, but throughout New York State.” “Daniel Monahan was not just a firefighter. He was a father, a husband, an avid sports player, a New York Rangers fan, a friend, a brother, and much more,” Clavin concluded. “His courageous actions and everlasting imprint that he left on the many people he has encountered speaks incredible volumes. The Town of Hempstead is proud to rename this street as Firefighter Daniel M. Monahan Lane.” —Submitted by the Town of Hempstead

Milestones For Chief Butera BY ILLUSTRATED NEWS STAFF editors@antonmediagroup.com

World War II veteran and East Meadow Fire Department 70-year member Andy Butera celebrated his 100th birthday on May 24 with a drive-by parade and a big birthday cake organized by the EMFD and American Legion Post 1082. A Marine, Cpl. Butera served in the brutal Pacific Island campaigns of 1942-45. Post Commander Pete Wenninger presented Butera and his nephew Joey Lisciandri—a 20-year Army veteran—memberships to Post 1082. EMFD Chief Peter Cheswick said Butera was his trainer when he joined the department in 1993 as a junior firefighter. By then, Butera been a member of Engine Company No. 1 for 42 years and served as chief of department in 1959, Cheswick presented Butera, the department’s historian, with the 70-year pin. After the cake was served, Butera’s wife Joy requested that everyone sing “God Bless America.”

The new centenarian is about to enjoy his birthday cake. (Jay Zinger | EMFD)

Garden City Alumni Athletes Named 2022 Nassau County High School Hall Of Fame Inductees Garden City High School alumni Lara Von Seelen and coach Warren King have been selected to the 2022 Nassau County High School Hall of Fame. Lara Von Seelen, also know as Lara Spencer in her film and television career, was a threeyear standout and captain in softball and basketball. She spent six years as a varsity swimmer and diver, first earning a spot on the team in the seventh grade. At the conclusion of her career, she earned an astonishing 12 varsity letters, more than any female or male athlete in the school’s history. Warren King was an elite high school coach during a span of 61 years at Garden City High School. In 37 years as the Trojans football coach, his teams won 142 games and recorded four unbeaten seasons. King was the first Nassau County football coach to be named coach of the year twice. His career as a track and field mentor was unprecedented. He was not merely admired because of longevity. Under his tutelage, the Trojans had 54 consecutive winning seasons, won 27 league titles and five county titles. The 2022 Nassau County High School Hall of Fame ceremony will take place on Sept. 28, at 6 p.m., at the Crest Hollow Country Club. — Submitted by Garden City Public School District

Shoplifter Arrested For Assault At Westbury Target Nassau County Police Department Third Squad Detectives arrested Keyshawn Major Blackman, 21, of Brooklyn, for an assault that occurred on Sunday, July 24 at 2:25 p.m. in Westbury. According to detectives, police responded to Target located at 999 Corporate Drive for a larceny that occurred earlier in the day. While an asset protection employee was reporting the prior incident to the officer, Blackman entered the store, proceeded to remove merchandise from the shelves and passed all points of final purchase. When the officer attempted to place Blackman in custody, he refused to comply with verbal commands and was uncooperative. A struggle ensued and the officer sustained injuries during the course of the arrest, as the subject was violent and combative while resisting. After a brief struggle, police were eventually able to secure the defendant, who was arrested and transported to the Third Precinct for arrest processing. The officer was transported to an area hospital for treatment and

evaluation. Blackman is charged with two counts of second-degree assault, fourth-degree grand larceny, second-degree obstructing governmental administration and resisting Arrest. He was arraigned on Monday, July 25 at First District Court in Hempstead. Blackman was previously arrested and released without bail on July 6, 2022 for the charges of third-degree assault, second-degree strangulation, second-degree menacing, and first- and second-degree criminal contempt. —Submitted by the Nassau County Police Department

According to detectives, a male and female entered Olivia’s Laundromat at 535 Old Country Rd. to do laundry. The male told a female employee, 42, the change machine did not dispense quarters after he inserted his money. The employee explained a refund would be sent through the mail. The male became angry because he could not get his money immediately. The employee removed herself to an area that had “For Employees Only” posted on the door. The subject opened the door and entered the room. The male pushed the employee and a struggle ensued before he removed $20 from her hand. The male and female fled the scene in a white 2022 Acura.

Spotlight On Coach Brandon At Mineola Village Swimming Pool, parents, kids, and fellow staff can’t say enough about beloved Head Coach Brandon Coward

ANTON MEDIA GROUP STAFF editors@antonmediagroup.com

n one of the hottest Friday afternoons this July, Mineola resident Luciane Araujo cold-called Nassau Illustrated News with a request: “Is it possible to do something to celebrate Coach Brandon? The kids just love him; the pool is like an oasis.” Araujo explained that her daughter Catarina (an aspiring writer and teacher) is on the swim team at Mineola Village Swimming Pool, around the corner from Anton Media Group’s offices, and that perhaps the paper could do a profile on Brandon Coward, head coach of the pool’s summer swim team. A week later by the pool, after numerous grinning kids and parents surprised Coward with the interview as well as a custom-made “Best Coach” medal, the Chaminade High School Class of ‘20 grad and current Bryant University Division I footballer shared a bit about his what he’s learned so far. “I picked this team up four years ago as the new head coach, and maybe thirty or forty kids would show up,” Coward explained, occasionally beaming a smile or throwing a wave in response to shy “Hi”s from more kids enjoying the pool. “My supervisors gave me full range and support, and now, five years later doing the job and four years as head coach, I have 80 kids on the active roster. Every kid swims at least twice a meet.” Kids don’t have to try out to make the team, but rather just sign up and get placed with other swimmers at their level. And based on the moods of families around the pool, Coach Brandon’s methods are a hit. Reflecting on how he tries to frame swim team participation, Coward noted, “I always say it’s important to teach the kids how to lose, but even more important to help them learn to foster success.” Coward credited a long list of people for the swim team’s success (primarily, its popularity and enjoyment among kids), including Coach Luka, his assistant coach and sister Alexus Coward, Coach Charlie, and certainly all the parents. “My first year, the meets were crazy because I didn’t know any of the parents. Now all the parents help me out, and my assistant coaches and supervisors; it’s a community team, and a community.” “What really matters is that the kids are having fun,” Coward emphasized. He laughed, “If they’re not having fun, I’m not doing my job correctly. Even if I look stressed out during the meets and practices, it’s my favorite part of the day.”

Brandon Coward, head coach of the Mineola Village Swimming Pool swim team, gets a hug from Luciane Araujo after receiving a “Best Coast” medal from families before a surprise interview with Anton Media Group. Coward said he’s hoping to do an internship in medical administration next summer, helping him explore one of the ways he’d like to give back to society as his already budding career keeps growing. “Everyone always says I missed my calling in education. Last week I think I’ve heard that about 20 times, no exaggeration,” he said, laughing agahin. “Maybe sometime in the future I will work as a coach or teacher full time.” Coward said that his favorite feature at Mineola’s village pool “has to be the slide,” which snakes around next to a spray of greenery on the pool’s southern edge. “Every chance I get, in my five years working here, I go off the slide.”

“The worst part of the job is actually the sitting part [while] lifeguarding. I think people don’t realize we’re the first ones who have to realize if something is going wrong,” Coward continued. “I’ll never forget my third day on the job, ever: I was sitting on the slide [position] and I had to do a double-save.” A toddler went in the pool, he said, and the two- or three-yearold’s mother, who couldn’t swim either, had quickly jumped in after him. Coward spoke humbly of his years as a lifeguard, and his hope that future employers will recognize the training, skills, and disposition the job requires. “Being a lifeguard means you’re attentive, you’re responsive; you’re able to see something

wrong and correct it.” His sister Alexus, who shared her older brother’s wide smile and choice of retro-reflective sunglasses on the job, plans to keep carrying the torch next summer with the rest of the swim team staff, even if her brother is off exploring other passions. “It was really cool that we got to do it together this year. It’s my third year here, and my first year doing swimteam, [and in the future] I can always ask him for a little help,” she said. “He’s really good with the kids,” the younger Coward sibling also emphasized. “He just loves to try to make it fun for them while also focusing on swimming. And always a smile.”
