George Takei’s Terror New AMC series focuses on American internment camps

By Dave Gil de Rubio dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

eorge Takei is calling 2019 his “Summer of Internment.” As someone who was imprisoned as a child with his family in U.S.-run internment camps during World War II, his lifelong passion about educating people about this shameful chapter in American history has fresh legs, due, in part, to a pair of projects he is currently involved with. The first is The Terror: Infamy, the latest installment of the AMC horror drama anthology that is set in the same kind of camp Takei and his family were interred in. The second is They Called Us Enemy, a graphic novel that recounts Takei’s childhood experience in those American concentration camps. Interestingly enough, the Los Angeles native’s involvement with this 10-episode series came about via

one of the many lectures he’s made over the past four decades about the internment of Japanese-American citizens. “I guess it was about 20 years ago that I spoke at Occidental College, here in Los Angeles. In that class was a guy named Max Borenstein, who is now one of the executive producers at AMC. When they were brainstorming for a concept for the second edition of The Terror, he said he was a student at Occidental [back then and] he heard a speech about the internment of Japanese-Americans from George Takei. It was a horrific experience and he pitched it at the network,” the actor explained. “That grew into this project The Terror: Infamy. Alex Woo was assigned to be the show runner for the show and he called one day to say he had an interesting project that he wanted to come over and talk to

me about. When I asked him what it was about, he said it was about the internment of Japanese-Americans. I said of course—that’s my mission in life. So he came over and sat in my living room and described the project and I said this was very important.” While this series is steeped in Japanese supernatural folklore, much of the first-hand details are shaped with Takei’s help, who supplements his role as Yamato-san, the oldest internee, as a show consultant. His advice has ranged from some of the more true-life incidents that happened at these camps including a mandatory loyalty questionnaire issued by the United States government, and the details of the living quarters to the degree of wear-andtear that was found on the plates the imprisoned were forced to eat off of. “Writers might define metaphor and other symbolic objects. I thought

it might inspire them. When we got into filming, I was there to say this was authentic and true or that needs to be tweaked a little bit,” he explained. “The very sturdy ceramic plates that they had in the mess hall were straight from Bed, Bath & Beyond and were brand new. My memory is that of dining off of usedup, often-dropped, washed roughly, chipped-up and sometimes cracked crockery. So I was there to make these little details authentic.” The oldest of three children, Takei was born on April 20, 1937, in Los Angeles, CA, to JapaneseAmerican parents Fumiko Emily (née Nakamura; born in Sacramento, CA) and Takekuma Norman Takei (born in Japan’s Yamanashi Prefecture). In 1942, the Takei family was forced to live in the converted horse stables

They were later transferred to the Rohwer War Relocation Center for internment in Rohwer, AR, before being sent back west to the Tule Lake War Relocation Center in California. As a child, Takei was “...going on an adventure of discovery in the swamps of Arkansas— bayous, tadpoles that turn into frogs—it was a magical experience for me.” At the same time, he was unaware of the harrowing experience

Fiddler On The Roof in Yiddish? Mashugana, Nu? By JoSePH WolKiN JWolKin@antonmediagroup.com

he Yiddish is addicting. Never heard a sentence in Yiddish, the language European Jews created and have spoken for decades? Not a problem. Fiddler on the Roof, or Fiddler Afn Dakh, had never been heard fully in Yiddish in America. But that all changed thanks to an idea sparked by director Joel Grey, who’s won Academy, Tony and Golden Globe awards, and the National Yiddish Theater Folksbiene. Grey utilized the Yiddish translation, made famous in Israel by Shraga Friedman, added some stories by the well-known Yiddish author Sholem Aleichem and made it the most authentic version of Fiddler on the Roof audiences will ever hear. “I knew they were originally in Yiddish, so when I saw the audition notice, that it’s in Yiddish and directed by Joel Grey, I thought, ‘it’s perfect,’” said Jennifer Babiak, who plays family matriarch Golde. “I didn’t even know there was already a Yiddish translation they were using.” The original eight-week production at the Museum of Jewish Heritage has spawned an Off-Broadway run at Stage 42, filling seats with nostalgia, tears and laughter. In mid-July, the Fiddler cast celebrated their one-year anniversary, and now it’s scheduled to run through Jan. 5, 2020. Unlike other renditions of the famous play, you are actually traveling back in time, heading to the Russian shtetl of Anatevka in 1905. One of the most unique parts of the musical, besides the Yiddish, is the script itself. Grey adds several different pieces of Aleichem’s works to make this a masterpiece, including the change of “If I Were a Rich Man” to “If I Were a Rothchild.” “The biggest challenge of my career was mastering this role in Yiddish,” Steven Skybell, who stars as Tevye, said. “I’ve always loved languages. There was

Fiddler’s return comes in an unpredictable, authentic format a certain affinity for me because of the challenge of a foreign language.” His beard is black with a touch of gray by the chin. It’s fitting for this character, one who is extremely stressed out as he attempts to provide for Golde and their four daughters. The beard is perfectly suited to Tevye’s opening monologue discussing plagues throughout Jewish communities across Europe, expelling Jews from their shtetls, small towns or villages. Since the play is in Yiddish, there are supertitles projected in English and Russian on both sides of the stage. While the thought of supertitles might initially seem distracting, they are placed on the front curtains, making it incredibly easy to follow and even if one doesn’t read them, the inflection in the cast’s voices makes the audience aware of the events happening in front of them. The task of learning Yiddish, though,

wasn’t a simple one. “Learning the music in the language was a little easier because the emphasis is there for you,” Babiak said. “We basically had no lives that month. We rehearsed all day and went home to practice our Yiddish. I would listen and practice on every subway ride. It was amazing to see how it clicked for everyone.” To make the cast accustomed to the script, Grey made the first week of rehearsals in English. Not only did it give the actors time to learn Yiddish, but it also gave them the important context that led to impeccable chemistry on the stage. Eventually, everyone learned Yiddish. As soon as the play starts and you hear Der Fiddler (Lauren Jeanne Thomas), followed by the first words in Yiddish, goosebumps appear on your arms. “Joel Grey has been around the block

more than once, and he’s commented many times that he’s never seen a company of actors so respectful of each other and so insistent on telling the story together every night,” said Skybell, who actually knew some Yiddish prior to this project. The original Fiddler stories were written in Yiddish between 1894 and 1914, discussing Jewish life in the midst of pogroms and the struggles of Jewish families shying away from tradition. This version, though, has some light-hearted moments, with jokes by Der Rov (Adam B. Shapiro) and Tevye, going back-and-forth about what Jewish customs are based on the laws of the Torah. But this Fiddler on the Roof is quite emotional, notably bringing this author to tears in Act II. The moments of Khave’s (Rosie Jo Needy) return after marrying Fyedke (Cameron Johnson), who isn’t Jewish, are quite intense. Tevye and Golde shun her. “Every night, she comes on with such a broken heart,” Skybell said of Babiak’s performance. But more importantly, it leads to a rare discussion of love between the older couple, who have been married for 25 years and met on the day of their wedding thanks to a shadchan (matchmaker). “It’s so simple and they really do discover this idea of love that they never thought about for 25 years,” Babiak said. “It’s a moment in their lives that they look back on. For Golde, she really takes the time to answer him and really think about it. She looks back on this idea of love that she never even thought about or thought could happen to her. It’s a beautiful scene set on the two benches. It’s different than we’ve seen

it before. It’s simple and you’re thrown into the text.” This scene alone turns a historical musical into a spiritual journey by making everyone in the audience freeze. “It’s a wonderful notion that Golde should have a wonderful singing voice,” Skybell said. “Often, the generic concept of Golde is that she’s a shrieky

shrew. He [Grey] was really insistent that she is the little general of this family.” The two realize they indeed love each other, yet there are moments of uncertainty. There are rare moments of quiet in the theater as they pause, emphasizing an emotion no other rendition of Fiddler can repeat.

This version of Fiddler has such high praises that Barry Manilow even visited the off-Broadway show on Aug. 1 to meet the cast and observe the one-of-akind play. “Fiddler on the Roof is a bona fide classic,” Skybell said. “People have been talking about the demise of Yiddish for a long time, and something like this

AUGUST 21 - 27, 2019

gives a jolt of life to Yiddishkeit.” Everything about this musical is authentic, from the natural sounds of the Yiddish songs to even the emotions radiated into the audience from the stage. The Stage 42 production opened doors in February and has since made enough waves that there is even an album coming out on Aug. 23, so people can remember it once the Off-Broadway run is complete. “We have a while still,” Babiak said. “We have people coming back and it’s amazing.” To top off this show, Jackie Hoffman, who plays Yente, is hysterical. Her voice reminds you of your grandmother, and goosebumps arise when she says, “L’Shana Haba, B’Yerushalayim,” which means “next year in Jerusalem,” known to conclude the Passover Seder. The only odd part to this play is that Der Fiddler appears on top of a table, rather than the roof. But the uncommon role of putting Der Fiddler in the midst of the dancing and singing is actually genius, fitting into the musical’s role of shying away from tradition. Fiddler on the Roof is at Stage 42, 422 W. 42nd St. in New York City. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.fiddlernyc.com or call the theater at 212-239-6200.

Traditionally, a wonton might have chicken, pork, shrimp or vegetables in its center. But why just leave it at four stuffing contents? Manhasset resident Kristine Marrale thought the same thing and decided to do something about it.

Child Victims Act Hits Home BY MARCO SCHADEN

mschaden@antonmediagroup.com

ince Aug. 14, hundreds of lawsuits have been filed across New York State related to the Child Victims Act. The law, signed in February by Governor Andrew Cuomo, gives a one-year grace period, eliminating the statute of limitations for sexual abuse victims. Suits have already been filed against every Catholic diocese in the state, Boy Scouts of America, Rockefeller University, schools, hospitals, nonprofits and other organizations. “It just makes this whole thing very real,” Brian Toale said, a member of Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) who filed a lawsuit against the Diocese of Rockville Centre (DRVC) and Chaminade High School. “At this point, I really want to get a lot of information and [a lawsuit] is the only way to get it. But to actually have it done—to get a text from my lawyer, saying your ‘complaint has been filed’—I don’t think it has really sunk in yet.” Marsh Law Firm and Pfau, Cochran, Vertetis, Amala filed a suit against Rockefeller University on Aug. 14, with 45 plaintiffs. They claim to represent 200 sexual abuse survivors of Dr. Reginald Archibald, a professor and physician employed at the university for approximately 40 years. Several of the plaintiffs are from Long Island. “It’s probably one of, if not the largest, sexual abuse cases in the United States,” said attorney Michael Pfau. Archibald was engaged in conducting a long-running child growth study where he examined approximately 9,000 children, according to the lawsuit. The suit alleges that Archibald instructed young patients to remain naked throughout “examinations” and fondled, played, pulled and measured their genitals, masturbated while looking at them, made them fondle themselves and instructed them to perform sex acts. He also took sexually explicit images and had patients visit him throughout their childhood, including one patient that visited him from the time he was 1 to 17 years old as part of the child growth study. Archibald died in 2007. “This is the reality,” said Pfau, who plans to subpoena the DRVC’s secret archives. “Thousands of kids were abused by Catholic priests and by Boy Scout leaders. Kids were also abused in camps, foster homes and schools. This is a big societal problem.” The DRVC is the sixth largest Roman

One Name Wonder ALFIO promises to resonate with Landmark concertgoers

BY RUDY MALCOM

editorial@antonmediagroup.com

ou’d probably think that a two-time Emmy nominee who goes by just his caps-locked first name—as if he were the likes of Beyoncé, but bolder somehow—would compulsively seek glory or attention. You might assume that such a musician, who’s taken the stage in four continents, would readily spill every drop of his personal life to his audience. Visitors to the Landmark in Port Washington on the first Friday evening of September will likely discover that Alfio Bonanno, better known as ALFIO, shatters such expectations. “It’s not about my business,” he said. “It’s about the music. It’s about the stories. It’s about connecting with people.” Although the songs ALFIO writes are inspired by his own experiences, he explained that, through careful word choices, he ensures that his lyrics are evocative for everyone. “I do my very best to make sure each individual person in the audience feels like I’m singing just to them,” he said. “The key to writing songs with a story that appeals to as many people as possible is to keep it ambiguous... That’s the beauty of music—you can interpret a song the way you feel fit to have it in your life.” Accompanying himself on the guitar or piano, ALFIO sings in English, Italian and Spanish, sometimes simultaneously. While at a concert in China, to the audience’s surprise, he sang in Mandarin. “I’ve always been a person that’s tried to say a couple of words in as many languages as possible,” he said. “It just breaks down that barrier. It makes people feel comfortable.” You might wonder if ALFIO would

siblings, also musicians, were subsequently born and raised. ALFIO had just finished a gig there in 2001 when he learned of the terrorist attacks at the Twin Towers. “I didn’t even know what the World Trade Center was. I hadn’t been to America at that stage,” he said. “From then on, my life was not the same. My father always told me, ‘Son, keep your hands to yourself, keep your head straight, mind your own business and no one’s going to hurt you; no one will touch you.’ That all changed, just overnight.

Although when I was first diagnosed in 2010, I did feel special, and not in a good way. At first, I thought I had a hernia. But the surgeon said no. It took almost two months for the biopsy of the lymph node that he extracted from my body to be definitively identified. I don’t know why it took so long. They said it was a good sample. They sent it to Bethesda for further analysis. Still no answer. I then had a second biopsy. I received the phone call from the oncologist while I was at work on a Friday afternoon nine years ago.

George Will’s Conservatism, Ben Hecht’s Agony BY JOE SCOTCHIE

jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

ith The Conservative Sensibility, George F. Will delivers his summa theologia on what that once-promising movement should stand for. This long-winded tome touches on themes familiar to readers of Will’s decades-long-running column: culture, economics, education, foreign policy, plus an ongoing (and often embittered) interpretation of American history. Is George F. Will a conservative? Has he ever been one? Would a true conservative hold up former New York Senator Daniel P. Moynihan asB:8.7” a model? Will charT:8.7” acterizes himself as

Madisonian, as in James Madison. “Little Jemmy” is the hero of this volume, the progressive Woodrow Wilson, who believed in an activist government and whose war-addled administration was a model for the New Deal, is the heavy. Is Will a conservative? The book, for me, comes apart in chapter four, where Will calls for the courts to “supervise” democracy. Say what? Justices are suppose to interpret the Constitution. That’s it. To buttress his case, Will turns to the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision as a prime example of necessary judicial activism. In that chapter, however, Will does not cite such offspring of that decision as 1968’s Green vs. Prince William County (school consolidation) or 1971’s Swann v. Mecklenburg County (school busing). The reviewer considered the oversight unacceptable, until

reading that Will did touch upon these decisions in chapter six and finds them baneful. “[Soon] there was compulsory busing, which became one of the most costly failures…in the history of American social policy.” True, but an understatement. Such activism sent American public education into a decline that may take decades to overcome. Will also neglects Griggs v. Duke Power Co. (affirmative action), Roe v. Wade (abortion) and Hodges v. Obkerfell (marriage definition), decisions that have hurled once-pleasant America into a cultural war with no end in sight. On page 535, Will finally gets to the point, calling on conservatives to “send more and more political power back to the state and local level.” Well, that’s conservative, all right. I am not convinced that Will

1. To qualify for the advertised APY, you must enroll your new or existing Platinum Savings account in this offer between 07/08/2019 and 08/30/2019 by speaking to a banker and requesting the special rate. Offer is subject to change at any time, without notice, and is available only to Platinum Savings customers in the following states: CT, DE, FL, NJ, NY, PA. In order to earn the Special Interest Rate of 1.98% (Special Rate), you must deposit $25,000 in new money to the enrolled savings account and maintain a minimum daily account balance of $25,000 throughout the promotional interest rate period. “New money” is money from sources outside of the customer’s current relationship with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. or its affiliates (which includes all deposit, brokerage and loan/credit accounts). The corresponding Annual Percentage Yield (APY) for this offer is 2.00%. The Special Rate will be applied to the enrolled savings account for a period of 12 months, starting on the date the account is enrolled in the offer. However, for any day during that 12 month period that the daily account balance is less than the $25,000, the enrolled account will not be eligible for the Special Rate and will instead earn the applicable Standard Interest Rate for a Platinum Savings account. As of 05/31/2019, the Standard Interest Rate and APY for a Platinum Savings account in CT, FL, NJ and NY with an account balance of $0.01 and above is 0.05% (0.05% APY); and for a Platinum Savings account in DE and PA with an account balance of $0.01 to $99,999.99 is 0.05% (0.05% APY) and with an account balance of $100,000 and above is 0.10% (0.10% APY). Each tier shown reflects the current minimum daily collected balance required to obtain the applicable APY. Interest is compounded daily and paid monthly. The amount of interest earned is based on the daily collected balances in the account. Upon the expiration of the 12 month promotional period, then-current Standard Interest Rates apply. Minimum to open a Platinum Savings account is $25. A monthly service fee of $12 applies in any month the account falls below a $3,500 minimum daily balance. Fees may reduce earnings. Interest rates are variable and subject to change without notice. Wells Fargo may limit the amount you deposit to a Platinum Savings account to an aggregate of $1 million. 2. Available in-branch only; you must speak with a banker to request the special rate. Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is effective for accounts opened between 07/08/2019 and 08/30/2019 and requires a minimum of $25,000 in new money brought to Wells Fargo. “New money” is money from sources outside of the customer’s current relationship with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. or its affiliates (which includes deposit, brokerage and loan/credit accounts). Public Funds and Wholesale accounts are not eligible for this offer. APY assumes interest remains on deposit until maturity. Interest is compounded daily. Payment of interest on CDs is based on term: For terms less than 12 months (365 days), interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or at maturity (the end of the term). For terms of 12 months or more, interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. A penalty for early withdrawal will be imposed and could reduce earnings on this account. Special Rates are applicable to the initial term of the CD only. At maturity, the special rate CD will automatically renew for a term of 6 months, at the interest rate and APY in effect for CDs on renewal date not subject to a Special Rate, unless the Bank has notified you otherwise. 1., 2. Due to the new money requirement, new accounts may only be opened at your local branch and you must speak to a banker to request the special rate offers for both new and existing accounts. Wells Fargo reserves the right to modify or discontinue the offer at any time without notice. Minimum new money deposit requirement of at least $25,000 is for this offer only and cannot be transferred to another account to qualify for any other consumer deposit offer. If you wish to take advantage of another consumer deposit offer requiring a minimum new money deposit, you will be required to do so with another new money deposit as stated in the offer requirements and qualifications. Offer cannot be: • Combined with any other consumer deposit offer. • Reproduced, purchased, sold, transferred, or traded. 3. The Portfolio by Wells Fargo program has a $30 monthly service fee, which can be avoided when you have one of the following qualifying balances: $25,000 or more in qualifying linked bank deposit accounts (checking, savings, CDs, FDIC-insured IRAs) or $50,000 or more in any combination of qualifying linked banking, brokerage (available through Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC) and credit balances (including 10% of mortgage balances, certain mortgages not eligible). If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the bonus interest rate on all eligible savings accounts, and discounts or fee waivers on other products and services, will discontinue and revert to the Bank’s then-current applicable standard interest rate or fee. For bonus interest rates on time accounts, this change will occur upon renewal. If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the remaining unlinked Wells Fargo Portfolio Checking or Wells Fargo Prime Checking account will be converted to another checking product or closed. © 2019 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

BOOK FEATURE BOOKS from page 14A believes in states’ rights. His “judicial supervision of democracy” would likely to continue to nullify the Tenth amendment. Further, Will picks a fight with the late Antonin Scalia over the court’s duty. For Scalia, the U.S. Constitution was sacrosanct. Judges were not paid to philosophize. Their job was original intent. Will, incredibly enough, maintains that the Declaration of Independence should play a role in how judges decide. Will a conservative? Scalia is right. The Constitution—the Constitution only—is the nation’s governing document. For friends of the Constitution and even democracy itself, George Will is no ally. Ben Hecht, the subject of Adina Hoffman’s new biography, Ben Hecht: Fighting Words, Moving Pictures, was a prolific screenwriter, who played a major role in shaping the entire movie industry in the United States. A native of Racine, WI, Hecht originally sought his fortune in Chicago, a city that during the 1920s, was a hotbed of exciting literary activity. Hecht was a columnist for the Chicago Daily News. He also began publishing fiction. Hollywood beckoned. In the 1930s, studios began hiring well-known novelists such as F. Scott Fitzgerald, William Faulkner, Aldous Huxley and James Agee, to work on film treatments and scripts. Hollywood is where Hecht’s career took off. However, time spent in New York City, where his family first lived when they came to America, also had an impact on Hecht. He now had an identity as both an American and as a Jew. Then came the 1940s. Hecht was living and working in Hollywood at the height of its Golden

Ben Hecht Age. But the man was terribly tormented by the unimaginable persecution his fellow Jews were facing in Europe. The biography vividly recreates those shocking years. It wasn’t until November 1942 that the U.S. State Department allowed information on the destruction of European Jewry to become news. When a leading American rabbi acknowledged that two million Jews had already perished, the story in both The Washington Post and The New York Times rated only a few paragraphs, not on page one, but buried in the first section near liquor ads. Hecht joined forces with the impresario Billy Rose to produce a 1942 memorial service, We Will Never Die, followed by a 1943 play, A Flag Is Born, rallying for the cause of the new state of Israel. Hecht stayed active, responding with anger, satire and great bitterness over the plight of his people. Hecht felt lonely and betrayed. After the war, his anger hardly subsided. In May 1947, he ran ads in the New York papers declaring his solidarity with “the terrorists of Palestine,” applauding violence against the British forces occupying then-Palestine. Naturally, the British government was incensed, and Hecht’s Hollywood was never the same. In the late 1950s, Hecht briefly hosted an iconoclastic television show on WABC-TV, which also became too controversial for his latest employer. By the time Hecht died in 1964, the state of Israel was well-established. Hecht was a proud American and he preferred to be buried in Upstate New York rather than in Israel. Hoffman’s biography is a supple and dramatic rendering of a troubled soul.

Housed on the first floor, the Duey Biomedical Engineering Center will complement the nearby Duey Immersive Learning Center where students training for careers in nursing and other healthcare related fields will have the unique opportunity to master critical response training in a real-world hospital setting. The dynamic environment will feature technologically-advanced simulated patients or human-like robots that, with the touch of the instructor’s computer controls, experience cardiac arrest and a variety of other lifelike symptoms. Students studying athletic training, psychology, social work, speech language pathology and other disciplines will also be able to take advantage of simulated settings. Rooms will be designed to mimic patient exam rooms and home-care environments to allow students to become fully prepared to provide excellent care in a variety of professional surroundings. A modern nutrition lab will ensure that wellness and disease prevention are incorporated.

The Commons WCU’s enrollment growth created the need for improved and larger dining services, as well as expanded meeting space. The Commons wing will be a welcoming and modern environment for students to connect, eat and work. In addition to the main dining hall, the Commons wing will include a ballroom, auditorium and meeting rooms—facilities that are currently severely limited on campus. These additional spaces will allow faculty, students and staff to host conferences, collaborative community events and speaker presentations.

COLUMN

Congratulations, And Welcome To A New Semester

can’t believe it—another semester is about to begin. For many of you, it marks a milestone: continued studies and a new path for the future you choose. I trust it will be the right one. This column will be devoted to some inspirational thoughts, which I have come across during my 40 years of being a college professor. I hope they inspire you to greater success. There are two mistakes a person can make along the path of life: Not going all the way and not starting. It is important to never be discouraged because you will find that it is often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock. While it may seem daunting at times, make the best use of what is in your power and take the rest as it happens, because successful people are those who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks that others throw at him or her. You may also want to ask yourself “What is your legacy?” or “What

Jack K. Mandel

will you do to leave the world a better place?” and “What gifts and talents have you been blessed with?” Once you have discovered your answers, be sure to use them to your fullest potential. Always remember that everything you’ve been through in your young lives has been preparation for where you are at this moment in time and, more importantly, where you can be tomorrow. Forget all the reasons why it won’t work, and believe the one reason why it will, because to create more positive results in your life, you must replace

‘if only’ with ‘next time.” This world is your world and it is up to you to shape it or someone else will. The ones who say “you can’t” and “you won’t” are probably the ones who are scared you will. Be humble and be thankful for what you have—you’ll end up having more. Never focus on what you don’t have because you will never, ever have enough. Personally, I am still learning that being kind and caring to those around you is more important than being right and growth is a never-ending process, so be specific in your goals because the best goals to set are those that can be measured. Talk to fellow students and especially your professors to get new ideas and options for your future. As for those goals, set more than one goal at a time—the rationale here is that if you are delayed in a particular area, you can still move ahead in another. It gives you a

sense of accomplishment when you reach at least one of your objectives. For example, let’s say you wish to become active in at least three college organizations. Even if you only join one of them and attend regular meetings, you have reached one-third of your goal. Finally, restate your goals as often as possible. Say them mentally, write them again and repeat them to others. The more you sense their importance to yourself and your personal success, the more easily your goals will be met. Professor Jack K. Mandel has taught marketing and public relations since 1978 at Nassau Community College. He is the recipient of both the prestigious Outstanding Teacher Award conferred by the New York State Association of two-year colleges and the NCC Dean of Instruction’s Faculty Distinguished Achievement Award.

The Calm Schools Initiative

Giving free mindfulness training tools to every teacher in the world

n today’s rapidly changing world, children face unique social and emotional challenges. Kids are experiencing greater pressures earlier in life, and feel more stress and anxiety than ever before. What if their school day began with a few moments of quiet and stillness? Numerous studies have shown the many benefits of teaching mindfulness to children. Through mindfulness education, kids can develop a lifelong capacity for greater self-awareness, concentration, patience and resilience. Meanwhile, educators face pressures of their own. Many teachers understand the benefits of mindfulness, but they face time and budget constraints, making it challenging to bring mindfulness education to the classroom. Enter, The Calm Schools Initiative, which offers every teacher in the world free access to Calm, the mindfulness app that hundreds of thousands of people all over the world use everyday. The goal is to empower teachers with mindfulness tools and resources they

can use to help kids learn this new skill. Under this initiative, any teacher with a K-12 classroom, anywhere in the world, can get free access to Calm’s paid subscription service (available on Android, iOS and the web). Teachers will have unlimited access to our growing library of guided meditations and mindfulness exercises, including Calm Kids, our programs tailored for age groups from pre-K through high school. Over the coming year, we will be steadily adding to the Calm Kids library, equipping teachers with an ever-expanding supply of content crafted for the unique needs of their students. The goal is to enroll 100,000 classrooms this year, improving the lives of more than one million children. If you’re a teacher, simply fill out the simple form by visiting www.calm.com/schools, and you’ll be approved for The Calm Schools Initiative within a few days. Once you’re

approved, you’ll receive some resources to help you get started, including share tips, suggestions and the best practices to introduce mindfulness to your classroom and get your students excited about meditation. —Anton Media Group

The New York Tech Student Doer, Maker, Innovator

New York Institute of Technology’s degree programs are consistently recognized for incredible value and outcomes. It is among the Best Regional Universities (North) ranked by U.S. News & World Report. Perhaps most impactful for families, it is No. 7 among private, not-for-profit institutions for the highest economic mobility rates for student income earnings after graduation, according to The Chronicle of Higher Education. “New York Tech’s ‘doer/maker’ culture fosters invention and innovation, collaboration and entrepreneurship as necessary elements of a modern college education,” notes President Henry C. Foley, Ph.D. “Our students learn how to identify and solve challenges, as well as create opportunities that benefit humanity.” “It was always my dream to become a hacker,” says cybersecurity student Hiba Fatima. But rather than exploit information, she wants to “serve her nation and protect it.” To help realize that dream, the motivated student

The university also offers commuter students the opportunity to mature and grow while remaining connected to their families and communities. As chief of cardiology at Mount Sinai Queens in Astoria (NY), Atul Kukar (D.O. ’00) is accustomed to saving lives. But when he joined the NYIT College of Osteopathic Medicine, he was the one who needed support. “I got through medical school because of my friends and my family. I had everything I needed to be successful,” he says. Students can also take advantage of generous financial aid packages. Moises Lopez, an engineering scholarship student, has been “paying it forward” as a tutor for after-school community service programs in Harlem. “I was able to show my mentees how important electricity and its core concepts are in everyday life,” he said. “[My scholarship] guarantees many more experiences like these.” More than 100,000 New York Tech alumni can be found around the world designing award-winning skyscrapers and apps, and leading startups and large corporations. Alumnus Vincent Sadusky sits at the helm of Univision as CEO of the broadcast powerhouse, while Barbara Porter is CTO for $1 billionin-sales FragranceNet.com.

One of the many strengths of Molloy is its proximity to New York City. Based in Rockville Centre just minutes from Manhattan, Molloy takes advantage of the metro region to provide its students with the highest quality internships and clinical placements. What’s New

Molloy, founded in 1955 by the Sisters of Saint Dominic in Amityville and home to approximately 4,900 undergraduate and graduate students, continues to expand its flexible learning options for many of its programs, so that students can take night, weekend, hybrid or online classes. Some of Molloy’s newer offerings include an online MBA, as well as a new degree completion program that will enable returning students to easily complete their undergraduate degree. A new residence hall, the College’s third, is scheduled to open this August.

College-bound students and their parents are always looking for an academic environment that offers the best fit for the student and the best value for their tuition dollars. Last year Molloy was ranked #18 “value added” college in the U.S. by The Wall Street Journal, arguably the nation’s premier financial publication. Additionally, in December, Newsday produced an enrollment overview of the many private colleges in our region. While most of our competitors struggled in the 2012-2017 period, Molloy “saw the largest increase, rising by more than 11%.” Molloy has also earned other honors, including being ranked the #10 best value among Catholic colleges nationwide by College Values Online.

The Wall Street Journal named Molloy College one of the “top added-value colleges” in the nation.

Back to School Anxiety BY GRAZIELLA SIMONETTI

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

ransitioning from summer vacation to the school year can provoke anxiety for children. The shift from the relaxed and the less structured days of summer to the higher pressured school days can be a difficult leap. Furthermore, the separation from parents may cause worrying. For most students, the typical beginning of year anxiety will fade as they become more comfortable and master the routine. Here are some tips to get back into the swing of things.

Self-reflect

It can be scary for parents to place their child’s safety in someone else’s hands. If you are feeling very stressed about the separation or the pressures that come from a full calendar and heavy loads of homework, be sure you are not passing that stress on to your child. Create goals around finding balance and not taking on more commitments than can be managed. Children take cues from the adults, so managing stress levels is important in helping

PARENTING MATTERS Graziella SImonetti children to be calm.

Listen up

Parents often attempt to reassure children by saying “there is nothing to worry about.” Instead, consider listening to their concerns and help them brainstorm ways of managing their feelings and the challenging situations they confront. Validate their emotions and express your confidence in their ability to manage issues that may arise.

Practice

Do test runs to schools and visit classrooms. Walk your child’s schedule if you have access to it. Before school starts, practice routines such as waking up to an alarm and choosing an outfit the night before. Getting your children engaged in the preparation

process can help them feel more in control. Practice goodbye routines. Role play what to do in difficult situations and how to calm down when feeling worried. For young children, consider using dolls to work out how to handle overwhelming feelings. It can feel safer to act out the feelings of others rather than confront their own anxiety and fears.

School support

If you are very worried about your child’s ability to separate, reach out for help from a teacher, a school social worker, the school psychologist or an aide. Set up a plan, such as pairing your child with a buddy or assigning your child a job or task to keep her mind and body busy and engaged.

Be positive

Talk about the fun activities in which your child will be involved. Remind him of his previous positive school experiences. Recall other times of doubt and nervousness when all turned out fine.

Play dates

Research demonstrates that

having a familiar peer present during transitions can help with adjustment. Set up activities with schoolmates during the summer. Back to school anxiety can be normal. However, if the back to school worry is causing distress in your child’s day to day life, or your child does not adapt after a month’s time, it may be wise to seek counsel. Other red flags include not enjoying activities that once were considered fun, experiencing a heightened number of headaches or stomach aches, and excessive worry that something bad will happen to one’s parents. If you notice any of these red flags, or if the worries interfere with the ability to function in school, consider contacting a professional. Graziella Simonetti is a parent educator for EAC Network’s Long Island Parenting Institute and works as an early childhood social worker for the New York City Department of Education. She holds an advanced certificate in parent education from Adelphi University and is a NYSPEP credentialed parenting educator.

Payment Plan

More families have a better idea on how to finance college College may be getting more expensive, but new research suggests that more families are preparing to meet those costs one way or another. Eighty percent of families say they are confident in how they paid for college last year, and nearly half have a plan to pay for all years of college, according to “How America Pays for College 2019,” a recent study from Sallie Mae and Ipsos, an independent global market research company. All this preparation could be attributed to the fact that the overwhelming majority of families recognize the value of higher education, with 90 percent of families agreeing college is an investment. “The individual and socioeconomic benefits of a college education are clear, so it’s particularly gratifying to see that families continue to view college as a worthwhile investment,” said Raymond J. Quinlan, chairman and CEO, Sallie Mae. On average, families report spending $26,226 on college in academic year

2018-19, with a sizable portion of costs—43 percent—covered out-ofpocket through income and savings. Scholarships, grants, and gifts—used by 82 percent of families—covered 33 percent of costs, and that “free money” can be especially important, both logistically and psychologically, opening doors to opportunities that would be otherwise unavailable. The study also found that while borrowing covered 24 percent of overall college costs, 57 percent of the families who borrowed to pay for college say they had always planned to do so as part of their paying-for-college strategy. What’s more, many families are getting a head start on paying their loans back, with 41 percent making payments on student loans while the student is in school. Seventy-seven percent of families completed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the 2018-19 academic year. Completing the FAFSA is the first step in receiving a financial aid award letter from

schools. Of those who filed for the 2019-20 academic year, 25 percent did so in October, the first month the application is available. On the other hand, the majority of families waited until January or later to file, potentially missing out on free money for college. For tools and educational resources that promote college planning, visit salliemae.com/ college-planning. “While more families are planning for

college costs, we’d like to see that number continue to grow because we know those with a plan are better prepared to meet the costs, and typically have a better understanding of the financial aid process,” said Quinlan. —StatePoint Media Inc.

Holy Trinity respects each student's unique needs as well as their potential for academic excellence. We take a holistic approach to creating students’ schedules by assessing their skills in each subject area. Students can take all Regents, all Honors/AP, or a mixed schedule.

Because we believe in the ability of every student, college-level courses are available to any student who displays the potential to succeed. We unite to celebrate our shared humanity as well as to strengthen our entire community.

With an emphasis on service, acceptance, and humility, our students are active disciples of Jesus Christ. All students, regardless of background and prior achievement, are held to high standards and ultimately succeed as Holy Trinity Titans. Our Class of 2019 boasted both a 100% graduation and college acceptance rate with five Ivy League acceptances, six fulltuition scholarships, 1,250 college credits earned, and over $33 million in college scholarships. In addition to academic excellence, our students thrive in an eclectic community that allows them to explore many extracurricular activities. This past year, our accomplishments included a conference championship for Boys Basketball, state championships for both Girls Basketball and Girls Lacrosse, back-to-back nominations for the Roger Rees Awards in high school performing arts, and two-time honors in the nationwide Congressional App Challenge.

German-American School An American Success Story

The web page for German-American School NY tells us that: “German is for everyone—regardless of background,” which was not always the case. When the school was founded 1851 in New York by refugees fleeing political persecution that followed the revolution of 1848, their aim was to teach German to the children of German refugees and immigrants. The founding fathers, so to speak, were members of the New York Turners and their aim was to maintain a link to the “motherland.” The school taught reading, writing, singing, grammar, essay writing, and German history. Between 1859-1898 the school had as many as 600 children, taught in class rooms on Orchard Street.

immigrants. In 1911 German-American School (aka Deutsch-Amerikanischer Schulverein), was granted recognition by the New York State Board of Regents and remains, to this day, a school that offers a graduation “Regents” diploma after completion of the 10th grade.

In 1985 the school changed its curriculum and pedagogy to appeal to anyone who thinks that knowing a foreign language will enhance their child’s growth and future. Our pupils finish with a Regents (or similar exam) diploma. Many also take our Advanced Placement classes. German-American School NY now has 210 children enrolled in its three locations: Manhattan, Garden City and Franklin Square. That is a far cry from the 600 children it German-American School Association was founded boasted in the 19th century—but over the decades officially in 1892. The first president was piano manufacturer William Steinway. The goal of Deutsch the school’s after-school language program has kept Amerikanischer Schulverein (now German-American the study of German alive and affordable in the New York area by adapting to change. School) was to offer free supplemental education to gifted children of financially disadvantaged 206595 B

NYUSPS High School Academy Fall Weekend Workshops

Give Your Child a Distinct Advantage in the College Admissions Process The college admissions process is more competitive than ever before. In addition to good grades and excellent scores on the SAT and/or ACT, institutions of higher learning are increasingly focusing on the extracurricular activities and professional interests of the high school students they are considering for admission. High school students themselves are also seeking to explore career options that might be of interest, well in advance of the time that they graduate, to avoid choosing a college major that might not be the right fit and to gain experience that could ultimately lead to a highly successful professional path. While there are programs offered through local high

schools and universities, the appeal of pursuing pre-college opportunities at an institution such as the NYU School of Professional Studies (NYUSPS) is growing, because of the distinct nature of the programs offered and the immersive, industry-based NYC experience students enjoy. High School Academy Weekend Workshops provide an opportunity to “try on” a career. With groups of peers from local high schools across the city and in the suburbs, students acquire an insider’s view of a professional path in which they may be interested. Taught by experts in their fields, these classes provide a rigorous overview of an industry, with opportunities to work on team-based projects, develop portfolio pieces, and hear from an array of guest lecturers. From programs in Applied Health to Financial Technology, Pre-law to Journalism, Architecture to Social Entrepreneurship, NYUSPS is delivering deep course content in growing and emerging fields. The program serves to prepare high school students to succeed in a college classroom, building the creativity, problemsolving skills, and strategic thinking that will prepare them for the challenges of higher education.

County Executive Curran Announces Book Club For Young Readers

assau County Executive Laura Curran is excited to announce the launch of her book club for young readers, “Laura’s Book Club.” The book club will include monthly book suggestions for young adults and children. Curran will announce her Book Pick of the Month on her Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. “My mission is for Laura’s Book Club to encourage young people to disconnect from technology, step away from the screens and enjoy a book,” said Curran. “I also hope this program encourages residents to visit their public libraries and take advantage of the free services they offer beyond book rentals.” Curran is also participating in the 2019 Nassau County Library Tour. The program encourages residents to visit as many of the 57 library branches in Nassau County as possible in the months of July and August. Each participant of the library tool receives a map to track their progress and can earn prizes along the way. Public libraries offer free membership to residents which comes with services such as book and video rentals, workshops and seminars, access to online research databases and even discounted admission tickets to museums and attractions across New York. For more information on the Nassau County Library Tour, visit www. tour.nassaulibrary.org. Laura’s Book Club selection for August is Turtles All The Way Down by John Green. —Nassau County

SUNY Old Westbury Department Earns Accreditation

he State University of New York at Old Westbury Public Health department has earned accreditation from the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) for its Bachelor of Science in Health and Society. It becomes the 14th stand-alone baccalaureate program in the country to hold this accreditation. “CEPH accreditation is an outstanding affirmation of this program’s quality and places it among the finest undergraduate programs of its kind in the nation,” said Calvin O. Butts III, president of SUNY Old Westbury. “Having earned this recognition reflects the strength of our faculty members and the tremendous effort they put forth to provide quality education while preparing students for success in fields related to public health.“

The accreditation procedures required the department and the college to undertake a rigorous self-evaluation—a process which engages stakeholders from across the college and its constituencies, including faculty, staff, students, alumni, collaborators and community partners. SUNY Old Westbury began the accreditation process in 2015 and engaged in a three-year, comprehensive self-study. The college then submitted

the self-study document and in December 2018 hosted a team of external peer reviewers to validate the self-study during an extensive, two-day on-site visit. The approval of Old Westbury’s accreditation was rendered in June. “Our program is focused on helping students to understand the underlying social, political and behavioral forces that shape health status,” said Martha Livingston, chair of the Public Health

department. “Our students also learn how to assess critically factors that contribute to the health of populations, integrating real-world experience with coursework and learning how to improve the public’s health at the policy and the community level.” Approximately 230 students were enrolled in the 2018-19 academic year in the program, which prepares students for entry into a broad range of professions in public health and for graduate study in public health. Graduates have also embarked on successful careers in hospitals and local non-profit health agencies, and many go on to obtain training in health professions.

Strategies For Parents Of Children With Special Needs BY ALISON GILBERT

needs means that it’s even more important to enlist others for support. Stay open to the notion that other families can still relate to you as a fellow parent even if they don’t have the exact same concerns. Find a time to reminisce with parents who are similarly overwhelmed. Work together to help each other find the humor in everyday parenting “catastrophes.” Family members can also be especially helpful when you need an extra pair of hands and a break from day-today stress.

specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

aising children can be difficult in some very unexpected ways. Parenting a child with special needs can create some unique and especially daunting challenges. Even when parents identify difficult behaviors and enlist targeted interventions, dealing effectively with day-to-day parenting stress is not a given. Having a variety of coping strategies on hand can be helpful.

Treat anxiety and depression

Stay positive

Remind yourself of all the things you are doing to take care of yourself and/or your family. Before bedtime, try making a list of all the parenting successes you had during the day—even if it was just that you managed to get the kids off to school that day. Try to let go of feelings of guilt about things that haven’t been accomplished or situations that didn’t go your way. Guilt adds an extra layer of emotional stress above and beyond any negative emotion you may already be experiencing. Even the smallest victories can help you get through.

Use humor

The frustrations of everyday parenting can certainly take a toll and make people feel bogged down. Children with challenging behaviors can make the task of parenting seem especially overwhelming. When the day is done, take time to reflect on events that you can laugh about. We can find humor in even the most frustrating behaviors—especially in retrospect. Our children can actually help us find a lighthearted side to situations. For example, in hindsight you might see some humor in the fact that your child decided to test the concept of floating by

throwing coins in the toilet when initially you saw a need to call the plumber.

Problem solve

Keeping a “problem-solving notebook” can be helpful. When you hit a bump in the road, write down the specific problem. Make a list of questions that you need to have answered. Write down information and sources of help you can call on to answer each question. If you still feel stuck, put the problem “on the shelf” for a while and return to it when you feel you may have a new perspective on it. Sometimes stepping away for a few minutes gives you better clarification later on.

Use social supports

Reaching out to family and especially to friends can be hard when you have a child with special needs. Parents may begin to feel isolated and become convinced that other families cannot relate to their struggles and that they themselves cannot relate to other families. In fact, having a child with special

Don’t be afraid to access mental health professionals. Parenting is challenging and there are therapists and physicians who can help when stress becomes significantly difficult to manage. When increased anxiety and changes in mood begin to interfere with your ability to problem solve and to take care of yourself and your family it may be a good time to seek counseling and/or a physician’s attention. Many mental health professionals can be accessed by going to the website of your health insurance provider and searching for specialists including licensed mental health counselors, social workers, psychologists and psychiatrists. The American Psychological Association (www.apa.org) and the American Psychiatric Association (psychiatry.org) are also great resources. The guidebook to perfect parenting for your child with special needs certainly does not exist. However using coping strategies that you know already work for you and learning new coping techniques can help significantly. Alison Gilbert, Ph.D., is a licensed clinical psychologist. She is currently a clinical assistant professor at Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine with a certificate in autism spectrum disorders from U.C. Davis.

How To Transfer Your Military Skills To The Corporate World

military background brings with it an ability to collaborate, problem-solve and thrive under pressure, making veterans well-positioned to take on leadership roles in the corporate world. Having worked in the banking industry for more than 25 years and in his 30th year with the U.S. Army, Jerry Quinn is an example of someone who has maximized his military leadership skills in the corporate world. As senior vice president, and head of Enterprise Military Talent External Recruiting at Wells Fargo, Quinn also serves as chairman of the Association of Military Banks of America.

Know yourself

“Knowing yourself is a key leadership principle,” said Quinn. “By understanding what your values, capabilities, strengths and weaknesses are, you can step into a leadership

role that will allow you and your team to thrive.”

Know your organization

Understand the ins and outs of the organization you work for, including its vision, mission and objectives, as well as the company’s current capabilities and potential for growth.

Set an example

“Leaders set the example by which others follow, so be sure to treat your team and customers with respect

and gratitude, and always lead from the front,” said Quinn. “Being proud of what you do can be infectious.”

Build a team committed to excellence Good leaders attract good talent and assist others in achieving their success. When benchmarks are met, give the team the credit—you aren’t a leader without them.

Be valued

Consider specifically seeking out positions with employers who value the

leadership, discipline and service record of military veterans, veterans with disabilities, National Guard members and Reservists, and then take advantage of any resources offered by the company. The existence of a military affairs program, such as the one established by Wells Fargo in 2012, is a good sign that a given employer is committed to hiring and retaining veteran team members. By honing in on the skills acquired during military service and seeking out tailored professional growth opportunities, those in the veteran community can maximize their leadership potential and thrive in the corporate world.

Island Drafting and Technical Institute — The College for Careers® Island Drafting and Technical Institute (IDTI) was founded in 1957, and is staffed by faculty members who have had professional and practical experience in the engineering, architectural, CADD (Computer Aided Drafting/ Design) and computer and electronics fields. The Institute is accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges, and is authorized to confer two-year associate degrees by the New York State Board of Regents. The Institute’s aim is to graduate students who are well trained and technically qualified so that they may enter their chosen field or continue their education at the baccalaureate or higher level. Island Drafting and Technical Institute has over 50 years of leadership and experience in preparing Long Islanders for careers. By staying abreast of the latest developments in the industry, the Institute continues to provide the personal attention students need to succeed. IDTI began life as the brainchild of Joseph P. Di Liberto, a senior design engineer at Republic Aviation in Farmingdale. Working at Republic by day and teaching by night, he started the school, then known as Aircraft Trade School, with just eight students. “Mr. D,” as he was known, handled the admissions, administration, and teaching all himself, with help from his wife, Gloria. After several years, Di Liberto moved the school from its original home in Amityville, N.Y.,

to the location it has called home ever since — 128 Broadway in the Village of Amityville. In June 1959, the school incorporated and its name was changed to Island Drafting School. In March 1973, the name of the school was changed to its current form — Island Drafting and Technical Institute. IDTI was first accredited by the Accrediting Commission of the National Association of Trade and Technical Schools on January 21, 1967, being on the first list of schools ever accredited by NATTS. In February 1997, the school was authorized by the New York State Board of Regents to confer the Associate in Occupational Studies degree. Under this authorization, the Institute is approved to offer degree programs in computer aided drafting and design/mechanical and computer aided drafting and design/ architectural. In December 1997, the Institute was approved to offer degree programs in electronic and computer service technology.

president James G. Di Liberto has been a fixture at the Amityville campus since the 1970s. And, John G. Di Liberto, who joined the school in 2000, got his start at IDTI handing out leaflets back in the 1960s. In June of this year, Forbes magazine ranked IDTI number 12 on their list of the Top 30 Trade Schools in America. Despite the technological changes of the past half-century, particularly on Long Island, and as drafting tables give way to computers, and drafters move from drawing airplanes to designing buildings, IDTI has continued to provide educational and employment opportunities for its graduates through concentrated, highly structured programs of study that prepare students for careers. Island Drafting and Technical Institute — The College for Careers.®

IDTI also offers to industry, as well as to individual job holders, skills training to improve on-the-job capabilities. Programs can be customdesigned for particular companies, in addition to the extensive program offerings regularly available. Though Joseph Di Liberto passed away in 2002, IDTI’s mission has been carried on by the next generation: his two sons. Current school 206625 B

Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 28 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

INTERNATIONAL WORD FIND Famous Aussies

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll try to follow the instructions and play by the rules, but everyone seems to have special circumstances that warrant exceptions. Meanwhile, a project without structure and standards can’t meet its own purpose. So stand back, decide what’s essential, and start over with the new plan. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The idea that you’re supposed to be anyone other than who you are is not only ridiculous, but also it robs you of the experience that is, right now, at your fingertips and available to you and you alone. No one else in the world can do what you can do with this opportunity called your life. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Train your eye on that distant goal. True, right now it’s almost so far off you can’t see it very well. But the thing about the longshot is that the more steps you take toward it, the shorter the shooting range becomes. Anyway, it’s going to take some time, but there really is no reason that this can’t be for you. CANCER (June 22-July 22). This may seem counterintuitive, but the smarter a person is, the more interested he or she is in the details of how a thing works. This week you’ll be presenting yourself and your ideas. If you feel the urge to do a dazzling tap dance and light show to get your point across, it’s time to find a smarter audience. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You could be more careful with your heart, but what would be the point? To love only in the amounts you are loved back? Never to misplace your attention or expectation? Such attempts would only backfire. Love, like all excitements, is messy and unpredictable. Try and control love and it becomes something else entirely. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Not everything that falls gets broken. Some things are built to fall -- it’s how they fulfill their purpose -- and whether they break or not is really beside the point. Falling is just one of the many ways things work on this plane. Also, keep in mind that falling well takes practice. Every time counts toward something. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Don’t discount what you know or assume it’s not enough for the situation. Remember your roots; they are as good as anyone’s roots and have taught you much about how to stand in this world. Accept and love yourself unconditionally and that includes where you came from and what you’ve learned so far. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The emotional experts say that other people don’t make you worry; you make yourself worry with your reaction to things. But how can this be true when so many of those reactions seem outside of your control? It’s a week to learn, experiment and gain emotional skill and intelligence that make life feel easier. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You can get so connected to your experience living through a body that you forget it’s not an entirely self-maintaining vehicle. Like any vehicle, it needs fuel and maintenance to keep running well. A good part of the week will focus on improving this ride and getting it ready to take you where you want to go. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). No one really likes the feeling of being or having to tolerate. It’s low on the scale of good social feelings, right under apathy. This week provides a good look at the dynamic of tolerance and a chance to change it. A creative, compassionate approach allows for many ways to elevate tolerance to appreciation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Some people delegate to make things run more smoothly and others assign because it makes them feel more in control. They need the position and don’t feel quite secure unless people around them are doing as they say. Know who you’re dealing with. Stay strong and independent. Steer clear of powermongers. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A little more money is not always a good thing. In fact, for most people, it’s the opposite. Consider what could be done without thinking of the cost of it. The cost is everything. Or, the cost is a tedious bit to be worked out in the scope of the project. You can make it either one; use your imagination.

Recreational And Infrastructure Improvement Projects In Nassau County I n an effort to secure funding and take full advantage of state resources allocated for local economic development needs, Nassau County Executive Laura Curran announced that the county has submitted Consolidated Funding Applications (CFA) for 10 environmental, recreational and infrastructure-related improvement projects. The state’s CFA streamlines and expedites the grant application process, serving as the single-entry point for municipalities to gain access to economic development funding rather than slowly navigating multiple agencies and sources without any mechanism for coordination. Funding awards are expected to be announced by the end of the year.

Bailey Arboretum Water Quality Improvement Project

This project will provide water quality

v improvement at the county-owned

Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Improvements include the deepening of existing ponds to support a fresh warmwater fishery for largemouth bass and bluegill species.

Upper Massapequa Lake Dam Safety Improvement Project

The county will retain a contractor to complete construction improvements to the Upper Massapequa Lake Dam structure on the south side of the Massapequa Reservoir. The project will include the regrading of a berm to an elevation of 17 feet and increasing the size of an existing spillway.

Christopher Morley Park Improvement Project

The county is working to redevelop Christopher Morley Park, located in Roslyn Heights. The proposed scope of work offers critical improvements

to the main building, a complete restoration of the public area at an old pond site, the improvement of the existing pool deck, a new spray and play facility, a new badminton court, two new pickleball courts, two new pavilions, new lighting, repaving and resurfacing throughout the park, fencing, drainage and ADA accessibility improvements. The project will complement ongoing improvements being made by the county including a new picnic area with shade structures, resurfacing of the old courts, new fencing throughout the park and updates to the existing playgrounds including a new safety surface. The final design will be completed in early 2020.

Sands Point Entry Bridge

The historic access bridge into the Sands Point Preserve (Hempstead House, Castle Gould, Mille Fleurs and Falaise) was damaged by a falling tree

Bethpage Bikeway Restoration Project

The county is working to rehabilitate a one-mile section of the Bethpage Bikeway Trail in Massapequa. The Bethpage Bikeway is a 13-mile shared-use path from Woodbury to Massapequa and is one of Long Island’s most popular recreational trails. The trail connects the Massapequa community near Merrick Road with the Massapequa LIRR station, Massapequa Preserve, Bethpage State Park and Trailview State Park. The project proposes to rehabilitate the substandard pavement and remediate existing drainage issues. —Nassau County

creamy ricotta filling. “I just enjoy cooking,” Marrale said. “I’ve always done it and entertained and people have always loved eating my food. When you have three kids and they want all different things and come from a blended family, you have to put a good meal on the table.”

While Marrale sometimes uses her wontons with a signature fold as on-the-go meals and snacks for her kids (which many others are looking to do, including a few who asked Marrale to prepare some frozen boxes of wontons to heat up when needed), Wonton Palooza is a catering company that offers anything from basic delivery of the freshly-made wontons to full service

at a gathering or party. “I love doing it and it came naturally,” said Marrale of making the wontons. “When you have a passion, nothing is ever too much work. I’m constantly always on, thinking of new ideas, doing social media and marketing and contacting customers for follow ups.” Wonton Palooza, which delivers to the tristate area, is based in

a commercial kitchen in Port Washington. Half trays of 50 serve six to eight people and cost $40; full trays of 100 wontons serve 10 to 12 people and cost $70. To do a combo half tray with two flavors, it’s $50, and for combo trio full trays, it costs $90. For more information or to order, visit wontonpalooza.com or call 833496-6866.

The Grand Canyon A Monument To Teddy Roosevelt

Mather Point, South Rim

By Joe SCoTCHie

JScotcHie@antonmediagroup.com

Theodore Roosevelt

ong Island and American history. No matter where you go, you just can’t escape it. This year, the country is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. The Long Island connection is the huge role the Grumman plant in Bethpage played in the success of that launch. 2019 is also the centennial of the Grand Canyon, one of America’s most beloved landmarks as a National Park. Does the Grand Canyon have a Long Island connection? You bet! It comes in the form of the ubiquitous Theodore Roosevelt. Oyster Bay native, Harvard College graduate, New York City Police Commissioner, Vice President, President, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize and prolific author, Roosevelt was

also an outdoorsman, a man legendary for his love of big game hunting. A statue of the man greets visitor to the Nassau County Legislature, but as the legend goes, if you want further monuments to the man, look all around you. And in this case, we mean the entire country. Roosevelt was a key figure on the land conservation movement, which gained steam at the turn of the century. And that includes the Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon was first explored by European settlers in 1540. That year, Captain García López de Cárdenas, along with Hopi guides and a small group of Spanish soldiers, traveled to the south rim of the Grand Canyon between Desert View and Moran Point. Pablo de Melgrossa, Juan Galeras and a third soldier descended deep into the canyon until they were forced to return for lack of water. In their report, they noted that

some of the rocks in the canyon were “bigger than the great tower of Seville, Giralda.” In 1889, John Wesley Powell, a Civil War veteran, commanded an expedition of the canyon. It was a risky move and several of his volunteers disappeared into the Wild West. But Powell’s gamble paid off. The Grand Canyon soon became a point of national pride. Protection from Washington was around the bend. That was sealed in 1903 when President Roosevelt visited the canyon. Three years later, Roosevelt, a true friend of nature, established the Grand Canyon Game Preserve. The act immediately reduced grazing rights. More important, it eradicated such predators of mammals as wolves, eagles and mountain lions. Animal life was now allowed to flourish. Roosevelt and his fellow conservationists had

formed a group, the Boone and Crockett Club, one named for two of the most famous pioneers in American history. That group, with Roosevelt’s backing, lobbied Congress to approve the Antiquities Act of 1906, legislation that gave the president the power to create national monuments. Roosevelt used his powers to add national forest lands to the Grand Canyon’s protected areas. In 1908, the canyon became a U.S. National Monument. For several years, lobbying efforts by land and mining concerns prevented the canyon from becoming a National Park. Finally, on Feb. 26, 1919, President Woodrow Wilson signed legislation into law establishing the Grand Canyon as the 17th U.S. National Park. Today, the park, among its numerous attractions, boasts of Roosevelt Point in honor of the 25th president. Travel guides

describe it as “the best place to see the confluence of the Little Colorado River and the Grand Canyon.” The Grand Canyon, along with Yellowstone National Park, is the crown jewel of the parks service. The canyon is one of the enduring symbols of America. Estimated at being no less than 2 billion years old, the Grand Canyon attracts 5 million visitors from around the world each year, where numerous hiking, biking, riding and rafting opportunities await them. The landmark is 10 miles wide, 277 river miles in length and one mile in depth. Archaeologists estimate that a volcanic eruption, one that took place 900 to 1,000 years ago, helped to create the marvel that the canyon is today. According to travel guides, the best time of the day to visit the Grand Canyon is both before 10 a.m. and after

(Photos by Cathy Bongiorno)

4 p.m. “when the angle of the sun brings out the colors of the rock, and clouds and shadows add dimension. Colors deepen dramatically among the contrasting layers of the canyon walls just before and during sunrise and sunset.” The preservationist efforts have succeeded dramatically. Today, there are 89 mammal species living in the canyon and no less than 1,700 plant species. Most significant has been the return of the California condor. In the 1980s, there were only 22 condors left in the wild. Fortunately, they were captured and placed in a captive-breeding program. It worked. Starting in 1996, captive-raised condors have been released into the canyon and by 2013, up to 50 condors were flying free over the canyon. In 2003, for the first time in over a century, a pair of condors hatched and raised a chick. Since

then, several more condor pairs have successfully raised offspring. The Grand Canyon is a phenomenon of nature. It is also a tribute to Teddy Roosevelt. Isn’t it time you have visited?

MUSIC

Rattling The Cage Chris Daughtry talks new album and tour

By aNTHoNy MuRRay amurraY@antonmediagroup.com

hris Daughtry, who is the lead singer of the band Daughtry, along with his band members, has managed to score four number-one hits, sell more than 8 million albums and 16 million singles, and earn four number-one radio singles. Last year, the band dropped its fifth studio album Cage to Rattle and are now hitting the road on their brand new tour. One of their stops is on Long Island at the NYCB Theater at Westbury on Sunday, Aug. 25. “We’re definitely playing a lot of the new songs off Cage to Rattle,” explained Daughtry. “We’re trying to give the fans what they want. It’s definitely a juggling act when you have five albums to pull from. There’s going

to be some songs inevitably left on the floor that don’t get played and we hear that from the crowd. Sometimes I feel that songs some fans want to hear don’t necessarily go over as well live. Everyone has their favorites, and trust me, I get it. I remember going to see bands as a kid and I was like, ‘Dammit. You didn’t play this song.’ At the end of the day, we try to give them their money’s worth, give them an experience and we want them to feel like they were a part of something special. For that hour and a half, I want them to forget about all their problems and just feel like they’re

a part of a bigger community that love and respect each other.” Fans of Daughtry’s will get to hear the band’s new single “As You Are,” which is a song that has a sentimental meaning for Daughtry, when they come out to see the show. “That song to me was the heart and soul of the record,” Daughtry said. “That song was one of the first songs that I had written for this album. Actually my wife and I wrote the song in 2015. I believed in this song from the very beginning and I wanted it to see the light of day. The fact that we were able to get a [music] video made and get it released to radio was a huge feat. It was the

song that means a lot to us and we’re so glad to be getting the response that we’re getting from so many people who saw the video and so many people who connected to it early on when the record came out. It definitely means a lot to us.” According to Daughtry, the making of Cage To Rattle was a trying process since the band had to deal with schedule conflicts while also facing the ups and downs of touring. “It’s hard being in creating mode and touring mode at the same time,” Daughtry explained. “They don’t really go hand-in-hand, at least for me. Once I’m in the creative mode, the last thing I want to do is get on the road and vice versa. There was a lot of that going on and I think it slowed the process down a little bit. Creatively, I think there was some head butting going on just because we got a clash of personalities

with working with different people. We never worked with [producer] Jacquire before. It was a learning curve as well. Any record where you’re creating something that means that much to you, there’s always going to be some conflict of opinions and different takes on how things should be done. In the end of it, you hope that you both are going for the same goal and I think we were. At the end of it, we were very happy with how it all turned out, but it definitely was not the most harmonious of processes.” Currently, out of all the songs that are within the band’s vast catalog, the song “Backbone” from the band’s latest album is Daughtry’s favorite song to perform. “I think it changes every album,” Daughtry said. “I think for whatever reason ‘Backbone’ is one of my favorite songs to perform live. It’s got all the elements. It’s got that groove that makes you want to move and the bluesy vibe to it. It sits right there on the sweet spot on my voice where it’s not killing me yet and I get to have fun with it. ‘As You Are’ [also] has a completely different vibe. It’s something that’s very unifying when you play it

and you can just feel it.” So what does the rest of 2019 look like for the band? “We’re going to be doing some spot dates on and off for the rest of the year,” said Daughtry. “I think next year it’s going to be pretty busy for us roadwise. So we’re kind of taking it easy for the rest of the year. We have a few dates and weekend shows and then we want to plan something a little more spectacular for next year.” For tickets to see Daughtry live at the NYCB Theater at Westbury on Sunday, Aug. 25, at 8 p.m. visit livenation.com.

t’s a new era in New York as former Miami Dolphins coach Adam Gase begins his second stint as a head coach in the NFL. Despite his 23-25 record and sole playoff appearance, Gase has been given another chance to prove he can lead a team while continuing to develop franchise quarterbacks like he did as an assistant. Jets certainly want to see improvement from Sam Darnold as he enters his second year with the organization. While Darnold is the main part of the story, there are many aspects of the team that make this year’s Jets, at the very least, intriguing. Expectations are higher for them, but problems still lurk. Keep an eye out for the Jets to be competitive deep into the regular season.

Eyes On The Jets

The Evolving Offense If you’ve been to training camp, you would’ve noticed that the offense is going to rely heavily on the pass. That’s because Darnold is expected to make a leap and he has a plethora of weapons to throw to. Of course, there’s Quincy Enunwa and Robby Anderson, who have been the team’s leading wide receivers for a few seasons now. Then, there’s the addition of Jamison Crowder, who will take the role of the slot receiver. The team also expects second-year tight end Chris Herndon to be heavily involved, but will have to wait to see him due to a four-game substance abuse policy suspension. Then, there’s Le’Veon Bell. We know from his career with the Steelers that he will be utilized both as their primary back and as a pass catcher. The question remains whether he can play at the level he was at before sitting out a year due to contract disputes. The team has insurance behind Bell as well, with third-year player Elijah McGuire and receiver-turned-back Ty Montgomery getting the most work. Bilal Powell is also back with the Jets after nearly retiring due to a neck injury. What’s going to be important for the team is protecting Darnold as he operates. The depth on the offensive line is not great, but there are a few notable names. Firstly, the team

out as a rookie. I also know I have to earn their trust, so I have to come out here and work hard to show that I can be the best player for myself and this team.” Steve McLendon is starting in front of Williams for now while fifth-year player Leonard Williams and surprise 2018 standout Henry Anderson will start at defensive end, but will have a lot of pressure to get after the quarterback. As for the linebacking corps, new addition C.J. Mosley was an upgrade on the inside, but losing Avery Williamson to a torn ACL hurts. Expect Neville Hewitt and rookie Blake Cashman to step up. With Jamal Adams becoming one of the NFL’s best strong safeties, the rest of the secondary is looking bleak. Free safety Marcus Maye has been a solid talent for the team, but injury issues keep him off the field. Starting cornerback Trumaine Johnson had an awful first year with the team and he, too, is dealing with injury. Behind him is Darryl Roberts, who got better last year, but has not proven much yet. Free agent acquisition Brian Poole will likely play as well, but no one has stood out enough to get the Jets out of cornerback purgatory.
