More Than Just A Goodfella

BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

est known for his work in film, Ray Liotta found a home playing a crooked cop targeted by the FBI in the NBC crime drama Shades of Blue alongside Jennifer Lopez. As someone whose last extended foray on television dates back to 1985’s long-forgotten ABC drama Our Family Honor, this project was something Liotta had high hopes for. That is, until NBC announced in April that this upcoming third season would be the show’s last. With Lopez juggling an ongoing Las Vegas residency gig and involvement as an executive producer/judge on the NBC reality competition series World of Dance, her decision to depart Shades of Blue may have had more than a small part in forcing the network’s decision. The cancellation is equal parts bewildering and maddening for the New Jersey native. “I’m disappointed, because I like [my] character a lot, I thought there was a lot more to explore and I really think they could have kept it going with or without Jennifer. They could have recast it, but I guess they weren’t confident with the [ratings] numbers,” he said. “But they put us at such a horrible time—10 o’clock on Sundays without a good lead-in. It just wasn’t one of their projects that they stood behind and really wanted to make work. Jennifer left to do this dance show over at NBC, but she wanted it to continue without her in it. She was fine with it going on, so I really don’t know the reason why [it’s ending].” The show is set in New York City and stars Jennifer Lopez as main character Harlee Santos, a single-mother New York Police Department detective forced to work for the FBI’s anti-corruption task force, while dealing with her own financial and family problems. Liotta’s

Lieutenant Matt Wozniak is not only Lopez’s commander, who is the target of the investigation, but he is also a mentor to Santos. Liotta’s interest was piqued when it was rumored that director Barry Levinson was going to be involved. But it was when he read the script that the New Jersey native decided he was all in. “They sent me the script and I really liked it,” Liotta recalled. “There was so much involved with [this role]. To be a bisexual cop on the take who’s extremely paternal with his crew and family….he loves his family, so there’s stuff going on with his wife and his son along with all the guys. There’s tons of stuff going on, so it was never the same thing every day.” While Liotta’s most notable role was

playing Lucchese crime family associate Henry Hill in Martin Scorsese’s classic 1990 crime film Goodfellas, acting was something he fell into while attending the University of Miami in the 1970s. As the adopted son of Mary and Alfred, the younger Liotta grew up in New Jersey alongside his adopted sister Linda. A multi-sport athlete in high school who played baseball, soccer and basketball, Liotta’s foray into theater came after arguing with his coach during his senior year and being wooed by his drama teacher to audition and subsequently getting a major role in a production of Sunday in New York, an experience he admits, “...not remembering anything about. I don’t even picture myself doing any lines.” While he had no intention of going to college, his father encouraged him to, “...have experiences and meet people. And that’s exactly what happened.” Initially intent on pursuing a liberal arts degree, Liotta balked at having to take history and math prerequisites while standing in line registering and instead hopped over to the drama department queue. Berated by a comely theater major to audition for an upcoming production of Cabaret, he underwent a couple of auditions that found him singing a song from Pippin for which he only knew the refrain and mimicking the dance “Do the Freddy” when asked to provide choreography. “The worst part of it was that it was

20180706_XAL_LNW_PG00 - 1:37 July 2, 2018

in front of the other actors. They were allowed to watch the auditions. So I did that and I got into it. Here I was a jock, who played sports all through school because that’s all I cared about,” he recalled. “Now I’m in front of a bunch of drama people at school and they did plays all throughout high school. But I had no desire to be an actor whatsoever.” Following a small part on the soap opera Another World in the early 1980s, Liotta’s break came in his sophomore bow, 1986’s Something Wild, in which he played sociopathic ex-convict Ray Sinclair. Despite admittedly falling into an acting career, the Jersey native has been adamant about trying to challenge himself with the roles he takes versus just going for a payoff. Which makes this latest turn with Shades of Blue smart all the more. “My idols were the people that did different kinds of parts,” he said. “You want to do as many different genres as you can and that’s what I’ve been doing. I’ve done movies with the Muppets. I did Sinatra. I did good guys and bad guys. I did a movie with an elephant. I decided that I was here to try different parts and do different things. That’s what it’s really all about. That’s what a career should be.” Shades of Blue airs on NBC on Sunday nights at 10 p.m. Visit www. nbc.com/shades-of-blue to find out more about the show.

Ray Liotta: An Actor’s Life

Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe Jackson in Field of Dreams

dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

espite the fact that Ray Liotta got into acting to avoid taking certain prerequisites for his liberal arts major at the University of Miami, he’s spent nearly four decades creating a substantially deep filmography. And while his dedication to the craft found him looking to try on different roles versus going for a paycheck, even if it meant passing up the title role in Tim Burton’s Batman after the director asked him to audition for the role. And while he’s had a propensity for playing either mobsters or law enforcement types, the New Jersey native has managed to indulge his desire to find challenging roles.

In this cult road movie, Liotta plays the sociopathic ex-con husband of Melanie Griffith’s eccentric lead character. His performance inspired director Tim Burton to seek him out to play the role of Batman.

by Tom Hulce (Dominic) and Liotta (Eugene), finds the latter studying to become a doctor while trying to care for his mentally disabled sibling whose condition was caused by an abusive father. It’s one of Liotta’s favorite roles.

Kinsella novel Shoeless Joe, Liotta played the late baseball legend while working alongside the likes of Kevin Costner, James Earl Jones, Amy Madigan and Burt Lancaster, in his last role.

Dominic and Eugene (1988)

Field of Dreams (1989)

This Martin Scorsese film—that stands out as one of the greatest Mob movies ever shot—made Liotta a household name, playing real-life criminal Henry Hill alongside Robert DeNiro, Lorraine Bracco, Joe Pesci and Paul Sorvino.

Based on an adaptation of the W.P.

Goodfellas (1990)

Corrina, Corrina (1994)

Liotta played a widowed jingle writer in 1950s Los Angeles in this interracial love story that also stars Whoopi Goldberg. Balancing out the cast is Tina Majorino, who plays his daughter who is traumatized by her mother’s death and Don

Despite being a dramedy, Liotta’s first post-Goodfellas project dealt with the very real red-tape involved with a Veterans Administration Hospital. Liotta played a renegade heart surgeon and scrubbed in for an actual open-heart procedure as part of the research for this role.

Movies Come To LIIFE Long Island productions to be featured at upcoming expo BY COLLEEN MARTIN

editorial@antonmediagroup.com

or the 21st year, the Long Island International Film Expo (LIIFE) will be showcasing a variety of shorts, films, features, documentaries and more from July 13 to 19 at the Bellmore Movies. The more than 100 works come from 14 countries, with 27 of the films hailing from Long Island. The high volume of locally based projects is due in part to the work of the Long Island Film/TV Foundation. Its initiative is to give filmmakers advice and assistance when looking to shoot on Long Island, as it enhances the “cultural and economic vitality” of the region. Among the organization’s main goals are the promotion of Long Island as a location for a film to be shot, assistance in the process of obtaining the proper permits for shooting, organization of special screening events and promotion of the Long Island film industry through fundraising and special events. The expo this month will serve to not only showcase the films being presented, but also to award those who have made an impact on Long Island filmmaking during a ceremony, give panels on a

The expo is always attended by a large number of professionals in the arts industries. Hosting that

finale awards ceremony will be 30 Rock’s Kevin Brown, who will also be honored with a Friend of the Foundation award. Chris Roach, from Kevin Can Wait, will be recognized as this year’s Rising Star honoree. More celebrity honorees and presenters are expected to be announced as the event draws near. This expo is set to feature 23 world premiere films, two U.S. premieres, 33 New York premieres and 56 Long Island premieres. All of the films are in the running for a variety of awards, including Best Director, Best Story and Best Feature Film. There will also be a number of student films— from the Long Island High School of the Arts and Not Yet Legal Films club—that are showcased, but are not in competition with each other. Viewers can buy tickets on www.eventbrite. com for the different events. Some are free, while others have a cost ranging from $5 to $25. The All Access Pass, which goes for $65, affords those who want to take in everything that the expo has to offer the chance to do so. The Closing Night Award Ceremony, however, comes at an additional cost even to those with the All Access Pass. For more information and a full schedule of events, visit www.longislandfilm.com.

he coffee cake at your office’s breakfast. Donuts at your kid’s soccer game. The little chocolate chip cookies on the dessert table that you just can’t get enough of. What’s the common thread between all of these things? Probably the plain white box with the little blue border and cursive Entenmann’s logo. This year, the Long Island-based company is celebrating its 120th anniversary of bringing delicious treats to the island and beyond. To commemorate the occasion, Entenmann’s created the 120th Birthday Celebration Sweepstakes, giving entrants a chance to win one of four prizes. The “I Sing on the Cake” Sweepstakes concluded on March 30. Entrants had to submit a video of them singing Happy Birthday to Entenmann’s—some of the featured entries can still be seen on the company’s website. “We got more...reach than we ever could have imagined,” said Maureen Sticco, director of marketing for Entenmann’s. The first Entenmann’s bakery opened in Brooklyn in 1898, after William Entenmann came to the United States from Germany. When his son William Entenmann Jr. fell ill, their doctor recommended that they move to Bay Shore, which became the site of their next 30 delivery routes. His son eventually took control of the company, leading it into prosperity—a list of notable customers of their baked goods includes the Vanderbilts, J.P. Morgan and Frank Sinatra. When Entenmann Jr. passed away

20180706_XAL_LNW_PG00 - 1:37 July 2, 2018

in 1951, his wife and children decided to expand the brand’s reach by selling to supermarkets, establishing new bakeries in New Jersey and Connecticut and also breaking ground for a Bay Shore facility—sitting on five acres, it was the largest of its kind at the time. Unfortunately, that bakery closed in 2014. Everyone can still enjoy the delicious treats that Entenmann’s has to offer, however, at one of its four Long Island outlet locations, as well as stores such as Target and Walmart. Entenmann’s staying power has to do with its ability to adapt to change in consumer needs—some of its best selling products are those that come in small, easily transportable packages. These include Little Bites and the Mini Cake lines that come in individual wrappings. As people adapt to more on-the-go lifestyles, so does Entenmann’s. But that doesn’t mean that the company is moving away from its roots. “Entenmann’s is all about quality and taste and tradition,” said Sticco. She pointed out the continued tradition of the open window packaging that was initially started to give consumers a product that was easily transportable while maintaining that feeling of looking in a bakery window. Sticco said that people still say that this is their favorite things about the brand. If you haven’t had any of Entenmann’s famous products, check some out the next time you’re at the grocery store. Then you’ll be able to answer the company’s trademark question. “Everyone’s got a favorite. What’s yours?”

Safe At Home

Keeping your family secure in the summer season

othing is more important than keeping your family safe. Protect your family by ensuring your home is safe and secure this summer. Investing in small amounts of preventative maintenance can go a long way as the cost of putting off home repairs can catch up to you in the long run and aren’t worth the stress of putting your family’s safety in danger. One of the most damaging elements to your home can come from being unprepared for inclement weather—from extreme heat to hurricanes—summer brings with it a mixture of heat, humidity, rain, hail and high winds which can wreak havoc on your home. Prepare your home and keep your family safe this summer with these key tips.

Over Your Head One of the biggest home investments that is often overlooked is the importance of roof maintenance. It can be the single largest ticket item for many homeowners so it’s important to have preventive maintenance to ensure bad seasonal weather doesn’t cause extensive damage. If your roof isn’t strong and sound, you can invite in mold, animals and structural damage. “Understanding the importance of checking their roofs and knowing the basics of roof maintenance and damage can help ensure homeowners are better prepared for upcoming weather,” said Tommy Young, owner of Sav A Roof. “It can make a huge financial impact for you and your family.” What’s even more surprising is that a new, national survey by Owens Corning Roofing found that although 30 percent of New York metro area homeowners are worried that their roof might be damaged by bad seasonal weather, only 7 percent say they always check or have their roofs checked before the start of a season that typically brings bad weather.

Watch For Water Spring foliage likely means your gutters are filled to the brim. To avoid rain getting inside your home or damaging your home’s foundation, it is crucial to have a well

running gutter system in place. Keep your gutters clean to avoid clogging and water overflow. There are different products out there to keep your gutters free of debris. Think of your gutters as the middleman from your roof to the ground, keeping rain water from running down your home’s walls. You should direct your downspouts away from the foundation of your home and try to guide the water to a garden or vegetation. Clean gutters and the proper use of downspouts will keep your home’s foundation intact and your family safe.

Keep It Cool The sun can cause a home to dry out and prematurely age causing damage and safety

issues. It is a good idea to install an attic fan or ridge vents to help release the hot air in your home. With extreme heat, homes must be prepared to stand against the temperatures. Remember the color of your home matters too. Air conditioners will work harder in darker colored homes than in lighter ones because dark colors absorb more heat. Keep this in mind when looking for warning signs when extreme heat hits and be sure you’ve had your air conditioning system tuned up at the start of summer. If you have window AC units, make sure you clean the filters for maximum efficiency. Consider a backup generator in case you lose power as the extreme heat could reach dangerous temperatures in your home. With simple, proactive measures your family and home can make the most of the summer and avoid potential weather-related safety damage. —Submitted by Owens Corning

It’s Dog Time In The White House Former President Harry S. Truman is rumored to have said that “if you need a friend in Washington, get a dog.” Truman, in fact never had a dog, but he befriended countries like Canada and Mexico and countless others. He created bonds with these countries that had lasted right up until the election of Donald Trump as President. For some unexplained reason our current president has decided that America doesn’t need democratic governments and he would rather pal around with Vladimir Putin and a handful of other dictators who have never done anything to advance democracy in America or in their own countries. To simplify the discussion let’s talk about America and Canada. The recent attacks on Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau are senseless and defy our long history of working with Canada on numerous issues. The best example is World War II. Canada entered that war in 1939 according to the American Historical Association, which was before we acted in December 1942. It was one of our strongest battlefield partners in the drive to defeat Germany and Japan.

INSIDE POLITICS Jerry Kremer

Though its population is a fraction of the size of the United States’, Canada sent more than 500,000 soldiers to war in Europe. Canadian military bases provided logistical support for the U.S. Air Force. Canadian soldiers fought alongside the Americans in Italy and they joined America when it invaded the beaches of Normandy. On the seas, Canada provided 400 ships and 100,000 sailors to help America wage war on its enemies. America was desperately in need of help on the Atlantic Ocean to transport soldiers and supplies and without Canada, America would have lost countless numbers of lives and desperately needed trucks, military parts and medical supplies. U.S. Navy officers have attested to the fact that the war could have been

lost without Canada at our side. Another punching bag for President Trump is Mexico. That neighbor helped in countless ways including preventing German ships and submarines from using its ports. Its industrial and mineral production was an important part of the US effort and its farm workers were welcomed into our country to help produce the food that a fighting neighbor desperately needed for its citizens. More than 500,000 Mexican-Americans fought side-byside with U.S. and British troops. Both Canada and Mexico suffered great financial strain as a result of their

costly war efforts. Rather than engage in a debate about which country sends more exports to the U.S. or imports more goods from us, it’s worth turning the clock back to World War II to emphasize the history of our bond to these two neighbors. Maybe it’s time for President Trump to get a dog because by the end of his term he won’t have any real friends left. Jerry Kremer is a former state assemblyman.

With summer here, many people will begin hosting backyard barbecues and using their grill for the first time in many months. The Nassau County Firefighters Museum & Education Center reminds Long Islanders to make this favorite summertime activity a safe one by following some important fire safety tips. According to the National Fire Protection Association, grill fires spike in the warm summer months. From 2007-11, U.S. fire departments responded to an average of 8,800 home structure fires and outdoor fires involving grills, hibachis or barbecues each year, including an average of 3,800 structure fires and 5,000 outside fires. These 8,800 fires caused an annual average of 10 civilian deaths, 140 reported civilian injuries and $96 million in direct property damage. “We’d like to remind Long Islanders to take some basic precautions to make sure that accidents don’t ruin what should be a fun gathering for family and friends,” said Nassau County Firefighters Museum Chief Fire Safety Instructor, Chief John V. Murray. “Keep an approved portable fire extinguisher nearby and do not attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water—some people don’t realize this, but water on grease only causes the flames to flare up.”

“Also, establish a kid-free zone around the grill of at least three feet and never leave the grill unattended,” he added. “And, of course, if there is any type of fire that threatens your safety or property, always call the fire department.” Before barbecuing: • Check your grill thoroughly for leaks, cracking or brittleness before using it. • Check the tubes leading to the burner regularly for blockages. Check your specific grill manufacturer’s instructions. • Make sure the grill is at least 10 feet away from your house, garage or trees. • Store and use your grill on a large flat surface that cannot burn (e.g. concrete or asphalt). • Don’t use grills in a garage, on a porch, deck or on top of anything that can catch fire. Never use a propane barbecue grill on a balcony, terrace or roof; it is both dangerous and illegal.

r Barbecue Safety During barbecuing: • Keep children away from the grill. • Don’t wear loose clothing that might catch fire. • Use long-handled barbecue tools and flame-resistant mitts • Never use any flammable liquid other than a barbecue starter fluid to start or freshen a fire. • Never pour or squirt starter fluid onto an open flame. The flames can easily flash back along the fluid’s path, to the container in your hands. • Keep alcoholic beverages away from the grill; they are flammable. • Never leave the grill unattended.

barbecue, make sure all the connections are secure and open the lid and strike your match or lighter before turning on the gas. • Always shut off the propane fuel at the grill and at the bottle after you have finished barbecuing. Otherwise, this will lead to fire hazards, such as leaks and faulty regulators. • Store your BBQ grill and propane cylinder outdoors. • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the safe use, cleaning and maintenance of your grill. • Test your cylinder for leaks on a regular basis. When testing for leaks, never use matches or an open flame. Use soapy water or a leak detector. • Store your cylinder away from heat and insert a safety plug on the valve.

eiomi Wines, known for its beloved Pinot Noir sourced from three appellations on the California coast, is introducing three new reserve Pinot Noirs, each from a designated California coastal appellation including Santa Rita Hills, Russian River Valley, and Santa Lucia Highlands. Enclosed in a sleek black bottle with an easy screw top, each wine boasts a unique flavor. The Meiomi Reserve Pinot Noirs are the perfect gift for any wine lover or a must during summer evenings under the stars. The Santa Lucia Highlands wine reveals aromas of dried herb, dark plum and black tea. Earthy dark chocolate wraps around a core of cherry fruit flavor on a plush palate, evolving into seamless minerality on the finish. Located in the heart of Sonoma

County, the Russian River Valley selection hosts notes of subtle rose petal, red cherry and dried orange peel aromas, which lead to sassafras, cherry and red raspberry flavors. Elegant on the palate, this wine bursts with lush acidity lasting into a lengthy finish. Last but not least, the Santa Rita Hills wine is an intriguing blend of dried blueberry, violet and clove aromas, which meld into dark, brambly flavors and rich spice. The palate is dense, slowly evolving into a finish full of finesse. Based on the tasting notes, which one find which wine is right for you.

he 2018 Newport Jazz Festival (NJF) will take place from Friday, Aug. 3, to Sunday, Aug. 5, at Fort Adams State Park and the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, RI, with more than 60 artists in three days. NJF is one of the most respected and renowned festivals in the world, and arguably the oldest festival. NJF is the location of the acclaimed film Jazz on a Summer’s Day, and a number of notable recordings, including Ray Charles at Newport; Miles & Monk at Newport; Live at Newport ’58; Nina Simone at Newport; Count Basie at Newport; Ellington at Newport; New Thing at

Newport; Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday at Newport; and many more. NJF was established in 1954 by socialite Elaine Lorillard, who, together with husband Louis Lorillard, financed the festival for many years. The couple hired jazz impresario George Wein to organize the event to help them bring jazz to the resort town. Most of the early festivals were broadcast on Voice of America radio, and many performances were recorded and have been issued by various record labels. In 1972, NJF moved to New York City. In 1981, it became a two-site festival when it returned to Newport while continuing in New York. From 1984 to 2008, the festival was known as

the JVC Jazz Festival until 2009. Since NJF’s inception in 1954, Wein has presented a who’s who of the jazz world. The 2018 line-up is equally impressive, with Charles Lloyd’s three-day birthday celebration with Zakir Hussain, Lucinda Williams, and Jason Moran; Pat Metheny with Antonio Sánchez, Linda May Han Oh & Gwilym Simcock; Andra Day; George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic; Jon Batiste; Artemis featuring Cécile McLorin Salvant, Renee Rosnes, Anat Cohen, Melissa Aldana, Ingrid Jensen, Noriko Ueda & Allison Miller; Gregory Porter; R+R=NOW, featuring Robert Glasper, Terrace Martin, Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah, Derrick Hodge, Taylor McFerrin, and Justin Tyson;

Grace Kelly; Laurie Anderson and Christian McBride with special guest Rubin Kodheli; Ambrose Akinmusire’s Origami Harvest; Harold Mabern & Eric Alexander; Cory Henry and the Funk Apostles; Michel Camilo; Roy Hargrove; Jane Bunnett & Maqueque; Jazzmeia Horn; Emmet Cohen; Helen Sung on Tap; The DIVA Jazz Orchestra; Charenée Wade; Mary Halvorson’s Code Girl; Bill Charlap; Sara Caswell & Dave Stryker; Alicia Olatuja, Still Dreaming with Joshua Redman, Ron Miles, Scott Colley, and Brian Blade; Living Colour; Lean On Me: José James Celebrates Bill Withers; Rudresh Mahanthappa Indo-Pak Coalition; and many more.

Speed Through Summer BY MYLES GOLDMAN

editorial@antonmediagroup.com

Whether this summer finds you jetting off to a tropical island or staying close to home, you’ll need a way to get around. And while private and public transportation is an obvious option, with sunny skies beckoning and gas prices rising, you’ll want to check out these more innovative ways to travel.

The Boosted Board

Manufactured by Boosted and heavily advertised by filmmaker and YouTube personality Casey Neistat, the Boosted Board is a great way to not only have a fun time getting from point A to point B, but can make the morning commute more bearable as you can ride the board on the sidewalk instead of wasting gas. Boosted offers many models of their Boosted Board ranging from $749 on the Boosted Mini to the Boosted Stealth at $1,599. The differences between the many models they offer are range, speed, size and build quality. The Mini S measures at 29.5 inches long, has a range of seven miles and a top speed of 18 mph that can be controlled by their wireless remote and can climb hills up to 20 degrees. The Boosted Stealth is longer, measuring at 38 inches, can reach 24 mph and has a range of 14 miles. While the Boosted Boards are expensive, the company offers monthly financing.

Transportation alternatives make getting around fun again OneWheel+

The OneWheel+ is a one-wheel electric skateboard that sits in the middle of the deck and propels itself as soon as you step on it. The OneWheel+ features a tire allowing you to ride the board on various terrains while maintaining grip. The board also has LED lights on the nose so you can ride it safely at night. The OneWheel+ also comes in a OneWheel+XR which has a range up to 18 miles while the OneWheel+ only has a range of seven miles. The OneWheel+ starts at $1,399 and the OneWheel+XR starts at $1,799 or can be financed monthly.

InMotion V8

Unicycles aren’t just for clowns anymore. The InMotion V8 is electric so you don’t have to use pedals like a standard unicycle. The InMotion V8 can reach up to 18 mph, which can be controlled

by their IOS or Android app and can travel for 24 miles at top speed before charging again. The Unicycle also features a pull-up handlebar so it can be carried like a suitcase when you are done riding. The InMotion V8 starts at $899, but other models, such as the V3 are available for lower prices.

Trek Lift+ Lowstep

Bicycles are one of the most popular ways of transportation for all ages. Many people tend to ride their bikes to work if they live close or do not own a car. However, cycling can make you sweaty, especially if you’re climbing a hill. However, Trek created a line of electric bicycles that can be pedaled normally or can use its electric battery to help you get up those steep hills quickly without any resistance. Even though the bike has an electric motor, it still comes with gears, brakes and everything that a normal bike would have. The Trek Lift+ starts at $2,299.

Water quality reports available online for New York BY ANTON MEDIA STAFF editorial@antonmediagroup.com

New York American Water’s annual Water Quality Reports for 2017 are now accessible through its website at www. newyorkamwater.com under Water Quality. The annual water quality report details the quality of water supplied by New York American Water to customers in 2017 against the compliance standards established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) and the New York Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). It describes local drinking water sources, testing conducted on the water, substances detected, and the levels of those substances. Commonly asked questions and answers concerning local drinking water are also included. “We are proud to report that the drinking water supplied to our customers is once again of higher quality than required by federal, state and local standards,” said Michael Nofi, New York American Water’s Manager of Water Quality and Environmental Compliance. “We work hard to ensure clean, safe and reliable water service is standard for the areas we serve. These annual results are a testament to our employees’ dedication to excellence,

and we encourage our customers to read the information provided in these reports if they’d like to better understand the litany of tests continually performed to their drinking water.” There are two easy ways for customers to review information about their water quality and confirm that their drinking water meets federal, state and local standards. Customers can access water quality reports from their neighborhood by going to newyorkamwater. com/waterquality/waterqualityreports. If customers would rather a hard copy of their water quality report, they can contact 877-426-6999.

In addition to water quality reports, customers can learn more about New York American Water’s environmental stewardship and obtain further information on water quality at www. newyorkamwater.com. New York American Water, a subsidiary of American Water (NYSE: AWK), is the largest investor-owned water company in New York, providing high quality and reliable water and/or wastewater services to approximately 350,000 people. For more information, visit www.newyorkam water.com or the company’s Facebook page. With a history dating back to

1886, American Water is the largest and most geographically diverse U.S. publicly traded water and wastewater utility company. The company employs more than 6,900 dedicated professionals who provide regulated and market-based drinking water, wastewater and other related services to an estimated 15 million people in 46 states and Ontario, Canada.

WORD FIND

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). While some would say that the world is filled with incurious dullards who are concerned only with the very surface aspects of their own role in it, you believe differently. You think that people can become deeper, and, with better examples to follow, they’ll want to. You’ll provide such a model example this week. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You forgave, and now you’re back at square one, with more on the table that needs forgiving. At what point does this become futile? Should you forgive one more time? No. Forgive a thousand more times. But take the lesson. Protect yourself better. Make yourself impervious to the mistakes of others. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In the culinary arts, bitterness is made palatable by the addition of something sweet, salty or sour. As for the emotional arts, bitterness won’t be balanced by saltiness or sourness at all. So when it gets a little bitter this week, as it sometimes will, go for the sweetness. Life will be delicious.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

This year shows you moving forward with a free conscience and a light heart. When people know your story, it will help you out -- more so than if they only know another person’s story about you. As positive as the world’s stories may be, you’re the only one qualified to sum up your takeaway from life. Own that! Telling your story well will put you in a position to win friends, business and love this year. Also, exploring, adventuring and reacting to new parts of life will mold you for the better.

This is a theme puzzle with the subject stated below. Find the listed words in the grid. (They may run in any direction but always in a straight line. Some letters are used more than once.) Ring each word as you find it and when you have completed the puzzle, there will be 19 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Those who haven’t found peace inside themselves will relentlessly pursue external validation, often in the form of monetary gain. As the ancient poet Horace said, “All for a seat down front at some bad play?” Contrastingly, your serenity of purpose will have you working hard, with your love as the fuel and also the reward. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People may think of themselves as brands, but it’s perceptions of people that are brands, not the actual person. This week you could go in a lot of different directions, and the decisions will be tough. Don’t be overly swayed by the definition of you. That’s a construct. Your heart defies the limits of perception. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Everyone experiences the moment differently. You’re so hard on yourself that you might be surprised about how generous people can be when it comes to you. What you think of as mistakes, others embrace as part of your offbeat style. You’re more effective than you think. CANCER (June 22-July 22). If they don’t understand what you’re doing, maybe they never will. When they ask for an explanation, it’s a chance to get it straight in your own head. Seize the opportunity, but do it for you. Don’t be surprised if they never really get it. That doesn’t matter. What matters is your journey to clarity, beauty and truth. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The special kind of tired you get at the grocery store is called “decision fatigue,” and it’s exactly why situations with fewer options are favored this week. To make a decision requires more brain power (and willpower) than you might think, but solid organizing principles will help. If there are no rules, make a few up. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Selfishness is the enemy this week -- not because it’s inherently bad to focus on you but because it turns your world into a cage. No small world for you, thank you. A big, colorful world will offer you far more opportunities for wonder and beauty than you’ll ever have trying to control a small circle. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your senses are your conduit to the world, but they get blocked by various aspects of life, familiarity being a big one these days. Too much of the same thing makes you dull to it. This is why change, new meetings, reading and travel are so essential to your well-being. Make these things happen this week. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It may feel as though you’re stuck, and it’s true that you don’t seem to be moving along very quickly, but that’s only because it’s happening too slowly for the eye to detect. You’re growing slowly, and you’ll get there. Take it on faith. Keep your eye on the prize, and, if you can’t exactly move there, at least lean into it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The one who plants the tree won’t get the shade. These things take time. Unfortunately, some kinds of destruction work in the same way. Think about how it pertains to your current lifestyle. Something you’re socially conditioned toward might be a problem for future generations, but you can change it.
