Former NASA Astronaut James A. Lovell said, “There are people who make things happen, there are people who watch things happen and there are people who wonder what happened. To be successful, you need to be a person that makes things happen.” We have the power to make good things happen. Each year, we approach the Jewish Holidays with high expectations and anticipation. Why not? It is a time for new beginnings, ones we can create for ourselves. In just a few days, on Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, the sound of the shofar blasts will be heard.

There are four main types of communication styles—passive, aggressive, passive aggressive and assertive. Let’s illustrate these styles using a hypothetical couple, Jenna and John, who have been together for six months. Jenna is trying to let John know that she wants more personal space and alone time in the apartment they share together.
When a person is assertive, they are clearly stating what their needs are and why those needs are important. Jenna may say, “I would like to have some alone time during the day so that I can focus on my thoughts and writing. When I get interrupted it makes it challenging for me to regain focus.” Here Jenna is clearly expressing her needs through
When a person is aggressive, they tend to express needs in a hostile manner and cross boundaries when doing so. While a person may be heard, they may offend those they are speaking with/shouting at. Jenna may yell at John, “Get out of my space!” Other examples of aggressive communication involve being caustic.
and understand what it is that is needed, it isn’t guaranteed. This can lead to more frustration down the road.
Passive CommunicationAggressive
“I statements” and sharing why her request is important to her. By communicating this way, the intended message is being shared with John.
A person who is being passive aggressive is also hostile in the way they communicate, but it is less direct than being overtly aggressive. For example, Jenna may say, “I wish I had more free time like you to just wander around the apartment during the day.” Here, Jenna is focusing on John’s behavior and is indirectly criticizing John for being in her personal space.
Passive Communication
Being assertive is the best, because passive aggressive and aggressive can harm the relationship and break down the communication between you and your partner. Passive leaves room for interpretation (and misinterpretation) of your needs.Itisimportant

“Many Long Islanders are feeling the economic pressure due to rising costs for food, fuel and other essential commodities, causing them to make difficult decisions, such as buying food or paying to fuel up their cars, or pay a utility bill,” Island Harvest president/CEO Randi Shubin Dresner explained. “And while the demand for supplemental food support continues to rise, Island Harvest remains committed to making sure that no one on Long Island goes without food.”
or Hunger Action Month this September, Island Harvest Food Bank will join Feeding America and other network member food banks to inspire people to take action and raise awareness of people facing the impossible choice of hunger. Food banks around the country are working to make a real and lasting impact on food insecurity in their communities, and they are asking for the public’s support.
During September, people across Nassau and Suffolk counties can participate in the movement by learning, committing and speaking up about ways to end hunger. Other ways include donating food or funds, hosting a food drive at your school, place of worship, business or volunteering.

1. The state where the loan was taken out.
Many people believe that student loan debt is forgiven if the borrower passes away. However, this is not always the case. It depends on a few factors, including whether the loan was federal or private, and whether the borrower had a co-signer.
Federal vs. Private Student Loan Debt
Federal student loans (without a co-signer) are the most straightforward case. By law, these loans are forgiven upon death or total disability, and family members or the estate are not responsible for paying them back. In this case, there is no need for any party involved to increase their life insurance coverage based on the loan.
If someone with unpaid private student loans and no
ith student loan debt in the United States currently estimated to total $1.762 trillion, the price of higher education is quickly taking its toll on many households. Borrowers may be wondering if they need to consider their student loans when purchasing life insurance coverage. The answer to this depends on what type of loan the borrower has and who signed for it.
co-signers were to pass away, their estate may have to repay the debt. A judge may order the sale of assets the borrower planned to leave to others (such as a house or car) to pay back the lender. In this situation, having an adequate amount of life insurance would help to eliminate this burden and leave those items to go to their original heirs.
Spouses of Borrowers
Like co-signers, spouses may also be on the hook for making payments after the borrower dies. This will largely depend on:

On the other hand, private student loans may have different terms. Because private loans are issued through a private lender, the lender can dictate their own rules including the terms of death or disability. The best way to know for sure is to read the fine print.

Co-signing is when a parent or other adult agrees to be responsible for the loan should the borrower default. Co-signing is common for many different types of loans, including student loans.
How to Use Insurance to Protect Against Student Loan Debt
Who is Responsible for Paying the Debt?
For private loans, the co-signer may have to continue making payments. The loan contract may also include an acceleration clause. This could mean the lender can make the balance of the loan due immediately if the borrower dies.

making payments even if the borrower passes away. This depends on the type of federal loan.
In some states, loans are considered shared or community property. Even if the surviving spouse did not co-sign, places with community property laws will require that they continue to make payments. This is another instance when having life insurance—and, thus, a death benefit—can help alleviate this burden.
Whether a borrower should take out life insurance or get additional coverage to potentially repay student loan debt depends on whether they had a co-signer, the type of loan, and what state they live in. Borrowers and co-signers should look carefully at their loan terms and decide whether they need additional life insurance coverage.

The Department of Education is also proposing a rule to create a new income-driven repayment plan that will substantially reduce future monthly payments for lower- and middle-income borrowers. The proposed rule would protect more income from loan payments. It would cut in half—from 10 percent to five percent of discretionary income—the amount that borrowers have to pay each month on their undergraduate loans, while borrowers with both undergraduate and graduate loans will pay a weighted average rate. It would also raise the amount of income that is considered nondiscretionary income and therefore protected from repayment. The rule would also forgive loan balances after 10 years of payments, instead of the current 20 years under many income-driven repayment plans, for borrowers with original loan balances of $12,000 or less. Additionally,

The department is also taking steps to reduce the cost of college for students and their families and hold colleges accountable for raising costs, especially when failing to deliver good outcomes to students. The department has already re-established the enforcement unit in the Office of Federal Student Aid and recently withdrew authorization for the accreditor that oversaw schools responsible for some of the worst for-profit scandals. The agency will also propose to reinstate and improve a rule to hold career programs accountable for leaving their graduates with unaffordable debt. New steps will be taken against colleges that have contrib uted to the student debt crisis. These include publishing an annual watch list of the programs with the worst debt levels in the country and requesting institutional improvement plans from colleges with the most concerning debt outcomes that outline how the college intends to bring down debt levels.
To address the financial harms of the pandemic by smoothing the transition back to repayment and helping borrowers at highest risk of delinquencies or default once payments resume, the department will provide targeted student debt cancel lation to borrowers with loans held by the Department of Education. Borrowers with annual income during the pandemic of under $125,000 (for individuals) or under $250,000 (for married couples or heads of households) who received a Pell Grant in college will be eligible for up to $20,000 in debt cancellation. Borrowers who met those income standards but did not receive a Pell Grant will be eligible for up to $10,000 in relief. The department will be announcing further details on how bor rowers can claim this relief in the weeks ahead. The application will be available no later than when the pause on federal student loan repayments terminates at the end of the year. Nearly eight million borrowers may be eligible to receive relief automatically because relevant income data is already available to the depart ment. The department is also making available a legal memorandum regarding its authority for these discharges.
Thetrap.”department is proposing longterm changes to the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program that will make it easier for borrowers working in public service to gain loan forgiveness. The department proposed allowing more payments to qualify for PSLF including partial, lump sum, and late payments, and allowing certain kinds of deferments and forbearances—such as those for Peace Corps and AmeriCorps service, National Guard duty, and military service—to count toward PSLF. These proposed regulatory changes build on the progress made with the temporary changes announced last year by the department that expire on Oct. 31, 2022. Since the start of the temporary changes, the department has approved more than $10 billion in loan discharges for 175,000 public servants.

the proposed rule would fully cover the borrower’s unpaid monthly interest, so that—unlike with current income-driven repayment plans—a borrower’s loan balance will not grow so long as they are making their required monthly payments. The plan would also simplify borrowers’ choices among loan repayment plans. The proposed regulations will be published in the coming days on the Federal Register and the public is invited to comment on the draft rule for 30 days.

Proper vision is crucial for success at school, both in the classroom and when playing sports. While school-based vision screenings are valuable, these exams can miss certain conditions, such as poor eye alignment, focusing issues and farsightedness. That’s why it is recommended children get their first comprehensive eye exam by age one and another prior to starting kindergarten. If no vision issues are detected, then it is recommended children have an exam at least once every two years. Unfortunately, an estimated 600,000 children and teens are blind or have a vision disorder, underscoring the importance of a visit to the eye doctor.

least 30 inches away, taking breaks every 20 minutes, or investing in screen protectors that help limit exposure to blue light. Some health plans offer discounts on these types of protectors or computers with built in blue-light filtering properties. In part due to the increased time in front of screens, nearsightedness today affects 41 percent of Americans—up from 25 percent in 1970.
Proper dental health can help your kids stay confident and smiling, and also benefit their overall well-being. That’s because oral health contributes to overall health, helping the body protect itself from infections, systemic inflammation and various types of diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. While tooth decay is largely preventable, it unfortunately ranks as the most common chronic disease among children. In fact, by age five, nearly 50 percent of children have at least one cavity. To help prevent that, consider scheduling a dental exam at the start of the school year and every six months after that.

In fact, nearly 50 percent of people between ages 12 and 35 are at risk of developing hearing loss due to environmental factors, including listening to music through personal audio devices. Strategies to consider include using ear protection (earplugs or earmuffs) when attending sporting events or music concerts; following the 60-60 rule, which means limiting the use of earbuds or headphones to no more than 60 minutes at a time and at no more than 60 percent of the player’s maximum volume; and investing in noise-canceling earbuds or headphones to avoid the temptation to crank up the volume to overcome backgroundBack-to-schoolnoise.season is an exciting time, filled with friends and fun activities.

Your Back-To-School Checklist
• Your child’s personal information cannot be sold or released for any commercial purposes.
• Protect your identity when shopping online: Ensure transactions are conducted over a secure connection. Make sure the website is secure by identifying a padlock symbol by the URL or the https and avoid using public Wi-Fi to log in to online accounts.
• Learn how to spot phishing emails: Scammers may send phishing emails to students and parents saying that they missed a delivery of school supplies. These emails request that the recipients click on a link to reschedule this delivery. That link either floods victims’ computers with malware or sends them to fake websites that request their personal and payment information.
including full names, addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, or even where they go to school. Social media posts often reveal sensitive information unintentionally. Cybercriminals look for content that can reveal answers to security questions used to reset passwords, making accounts vulnerable to identity theft.
• Only label books, backpacks and lunches with the student’s full name and any other information on the inside! Using initials on the outside is okay, but names, even just first names, on the outside can create an unsafe situation.
Think Privacy
chool is now back in full swing.
• If you have questions about student data, please see information available for parents from The New York State Department of Education.
Some highlights to know about this law:
• Both parents and students should be careful on all social media platforms: don’t overshare. Any information you post can be seen and utilized by identity thieves. Avoid sharing personal information
• Watch out for fake coupons on social media: If the coupon doesn’t come from a recognized coupon distributor, the manufacturer, or a specific store, be wary.
• Ensure you know who the seller is. Some major retailers allow third party sellers to list items on their site, and those items can be hard to distinguish from the rest. Read all the fine print to ensure you are comfortable with the seller.
The New York State Division of Consumer Protection provides resources and education materials to consumers on product safety, as well as voluntary mediation services between consumers and businesses. The Consumer Assistance Helpline 800-697-1220 is available Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., excluding state holidays, and consumer complaints can be filed at any time at www.facebook.com/nysconsumer.Twitter:followForwww.dos.ny.gov/consumer-protection.moreconsumerprotectiontips,theDivisiononsocialmediaat@NYSConsumerandFacebook:

If asked for a Social Security number (SSN), inquire why it is needed and insist on using another identifier. Oftentimes organizations include the SSN request as a formality, and it may not be mandatory.
prices, or discounts beyond 50 percent, consumers should be wary and diligently verify the legitimacy of the seller.
Below is some guidance on how to start the new school year safely.
• Protect documents that contain a child’s personal information. Understand where your child’s information is stored. Ask how after-school organizations and sports clubs secure their records: Are digital records connected to the internet and, if so, are they encrypted? Are physical records in locked filing cabinets? Who has access?
• Discuss internet safety tips with children and remind them to be careful about opening attachments and suspicious emails.
• Use a credit card for online purchases, if possible. Credit cards offer the most protection against fraud, including the right to dispute charges if there are problems with your purchase.

• Download retail apps only from trusted sources. Cybercriminals are now creating apps that look and might even function like legitimate retail apps but are actually malware designed to steal your personal and financial information, send text messages without your knowledge, or even track your location using your phone’s GPS capabilities.
• If your child is under age 18, you have the right to inspect and review the complete contents of your child’s education records.
Under New York State’s Education Law, if you are a parent of a child in the New York State schools, you have rights regarding the privacy and security of your child’s personal information and data. State law requires each educational agency to publish its Data Privacy and Security Policy to its website. Technology has become a permanent fixture of the education experience. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently issued a policy statement that put educational technology on notice about children’s privacy. In other words, educational tech companies can’t require parents and schools to agree to the comprehensive surveillance of children for kids to use those learning tools. Thus, parents and guardians need to place close attention to the technology children use, what information they collect, and how they use it.
Other ways to pay close attention to your child’s personal information:
ConsumerEDUCATIONAlert:TargetedTipsForParentsAndChildren
The NYS Division of Consumer Protection (DCP) is providing targeted scam prevention and shopping tips for parents and “Back-to-schoolchildren.shopping is the second largest spending event for parents, after the holidays, which makes it critically important for parents to know how to safeguard against scams to protect their privacy and finances,” said Secretary of State Robert J Rodriguez. “And as more and more schools use technology as a teaching tool, parents should know what information is being obtained from their student and how to protect their children’s identity and privacy. Children should not have to give up their privacy rights just to do their homework. I urge parents to use these tips so students from elementary school to high school stay safe this school year.”
Back-to-school shopping is the second largest spending event for parents (behind holiday shopping). Often, a shopping scam starts with a fake website, mobile app or, increasingly, a social media ad. This year, smartphone shopping is on the rise as people are on the move again. DCP urges consumers to take note of common scams while shopping. Scammers may try to exploit the backto-school rush through fraudulent ads or through other forms of solicitations.
• Beware of fake ads and websites: As fraudsters continue to advance in sophistication, fake websites frequently resemble legitimate sites with credible looking logos, pictures, and payment options. If the website is advertising extremely low

The sexuagenarian rocker eventually caught the eyed of Los Angeles-based SceneFour Art Collective. Before long, Satriani was balancing gallery openings with recording studio dates while navigating COVID-19.
oe Satriani may best be known for his high-flying six-string exploits as a premiere rock guitar instrumentalist, but art and painting were just as important in stoking his creative juices as music was when he was a kid. The pandemic and the subsequent existential pause button that came with it not only allowed the Carle Place native to record the recently-released The Elephants of Mars, but continue a painting passion that began less than a decade ago after he decided to graduate from line drawing and working on his computer.

“He is my favorite. I can’t believe the two things he accomplishes at once which is a striking emotional impact with the portraits that he does. And then, the other thing is, they’re so weird. It’s like some weird alchemy. How does he make you fall in love with the subjects and yet, they are distorted and the colors are all freaky. Everything about it is freaky. It’s still a beautiful image that transmits something really special of love of the subject, so I love that about him.”
(December 22, 1960 to August 12, 1988)
“I think Basquiat had so much talent in being able to compose properly, his completely freaky, chaotic paintings. We all know them as being completely chaotic and busy, but they never lose their balanced sense of composition and I think this is a sign of a true artist. I think Warhol had the same talent. They were very different, but if they had to, they were really good representational artists. They could draw anatomy 24-7. What it goes to show us is a very unique approach to art.

Nor does it matter if West actu ally has the ace of diamonds. As long as dummy’s ten is played after West follows low (or if the king is played if West produces the queen or jack), the defenders are helpless.

Assemblywoman Sillitti Presents Town With Shoreline Restoration Check
DearCongratulationsEditor, upon celebrating your 114th Anniversary for publication of the Great Neck Record this September. You remind me how fortunate we are to live in one of the few remaining free societies, with a wealth of information sources available. Sadly, most American cities, suburbs and small towns are down to one local daily or weeklyNewspapersnewspaper.and magazines have to deal with increasing costs for newsprint, delivery and distribution along with reduced adver tising revenues and declining readership due to competition from the Internet and other new information sources.

daily newspapers to select from including the New York Daily News, Post, Times, News day, USA Today, Wall Street Journal and along with freebies such as AM Metro New York. Decades ago we also had both the Long Island Star Journal and Long Island Press.
I’ve been grateful that for more decades than I care to admit, the Great Neck Record has afforded me the opportunity to express my views via letters to the editor along with others who may have different opinions on the issues of the day. Thanks to you, an ordinary citizen like myself has the freedom to comment on the actions and legislation of various elected officials at the city, state and federal level. Public officials are powerful with easy access to taxpayers dollars used on a regular basis to promote their views. This is done via mass mailings of newsletters, news releases, letters to the editor and guest opinion page columns. In many cases, they are produced or ghost written by campaign or office staffers paid

Let them know you saw their ad. This helps keep our neighbors employed and the local economy growing.

Daily newspapers concentrate on inter national, Washington, Albany, City Hall, business and sports stories. They have few reporters assigned to cover local neighbor hood news stories. These reporters have to compete against colleagues for limited avail able print space. As a result, daily newspapers miss significant news and political stories from our local villages and neighborhoods.
