Long Island’s Nautical Beacons BY CHRISTY HINKO

CHINKO@ANTONMEDIAGROUP.COM

n Aug. 7, 1789, Congress passed an Act for the establishment and support of lighthouses, beacons, buoys and public piers. Two hundred years later, the National Lighthouse Day was established, a day designated to encourage dedication to preserving these historic structures. And what a better way to honor this national holiday than to give a nod to Long Island’s 25 lighthouses dotted along more than 400 miles of shoreline. It’s true, Long Island is home to some of the most beautiful and architecturally diverse lighthouse structures in the United States; many allow visitors to climb to the light tower and enjoy the panoramic ocean views, such as Horton Point and Fire Island, along with Montauk Point, which was commissioned by George Washington in 1796. Many others are accessible by private tour and ferry cruises, such as the Cross Sound Ferry (www.longislandferry.com), departing most days from New London for a two-hour cruise around the sound.

The commemorative day is not permanently designated by Congress, but National Lighthouse Day is celebrated by lighthouse organizations nationwide, recognizing the importance of America’s lighthouse heritage, the beacons of light that symbolize safety and security to seafarers.

Crazy Cakes creates basket cakes, cupcakes put together to appear like a basket of flowers

Hutmacher’s classic grilled cheese

The Art Of Food Trucks

BY CHRISTINA CLAUS

cclaus@antonmediagroup.com

New York City is not the only place with food on wheels as Long Island’s food truck list is quickly growing with the interest of grabbing a grilled cheese or cupcake off of a colorful truck. Local artists are putting down their paint brushes and trading them in for some butter and an apron as they bring their artistry to kitchens on four wheels. Port Washington based Crazy Cakes Cupcake Truck and Rosie’s Grilled Cheese Truck are serving up culinary artistry in the form of delectable baked goods and a variety of ooey gooey grilled cheese sandwiches throughout Nassau County.

Crazy Cakes Cupcake Truck

Crazy Cakes Cupcake Truck owner Erica Tiger took her glass, wood and ceramic artistry skills and used them to create intricate nut-free cupcakes after she made her son’s first birthday cake, which soon spiraled into each year’s cake having to be better than the last. People began asking Tiger to make cakes for their children’s parties at the same time everyone was coming down from a peak in the cupcake business, making it the perfect time for her to open up her own food truck. “When I would deliver cakes to my kids in the elementary schools, I found that a lot of kids couldn’t eat baked goods because they were allergic to nuts,” said Tiger. “So I decided to try and start a company that was nut-free. I needed to get out of my home kitchen, because we have nuts in my home kitchen, and I started a cupcake truck. I thought it was a great way to contain a

kitchen and have it mobile to be able to go to events and fairs.” Today, Crazy Cakes Cupcake Truck provides cakes, cupcakes, pull-apart cakes, basket cakes and for bar mitzvahs, communions, graduation parties, backyard parties, birthday parties and more. Parents often surprise their children with the cupcake truck in their driveway at birthday parties, causing kids to jump up and down with excitement, says Tiger. When the Crazy Cakes Cupcake Truck pulls up to an event, partygoers get to choose from three cake flavors and six or seven frosting flavors before they watch Tiger put together the customized cupcake. Customers can choose from a variety of flavor combinations like red velvet cake with oreo frosting, vanilla cake with rainbow frosting, carrot cake with cream cheese frosting or chocolate cake with mint chocolate chip frosting. “I like baking because I like making a good cupcake, but at my core I’m an artist, so it’s really about the art of the cupcake,” said Tiger. “I recently made a cupcake mountain range with a

river running through it made of hard candy and some swedish fish in the river. I love when somebody gives me a challenge.” For more information about Crazy Cakes Cupcake Truck, call 516-462-7299 or email info@crazycakestruck.com.

Rosie’s Grilled Cheese Truck

Similar to Tiger, Robert Hutmacher channeled his artistry into cooking after visiting a grilled cheese truck with exotic options in New York City. The mural and face painter got the idea to serve up simple yet indulgent grilled cheeses around Nassau County in his bright yellow Rosie’s Grilled Cheese Truck. “To me cooking is kind of like art,” said Hutmacher. “And everyone likes grilled cheese. It’s a comfort food and food trucks are big these days; I’m just trying to bring it to Nassau county. The whole process is just creative. I got to build the truck and design it.” After coming up with the idea for a grilled cheese food truck, Hutmacher began researching the way grilled cheese is made around the world,

coming up with different flavor combinations based on different countries. Rosie’s Grilled Cheese Truck offers the classic sandwich with choices of cheese from american to gruyere, the Clementine filled with extra sharp Tillamook cheese, bacon and tomato, the Mac filled with macaroni and cheese, the Big Cheese with three different cheeses and black truffle oil, the Caprese with mozzarella, basil, tomato and balsamic glaze, the Port filled with asiago, provolone and mushrooms and the popular DQ with manchego cheese, serrano pepper and fig. “I try to use the best ingredients,” said Hutmacher. ”Everything is nice and fresh. I shop around and look for the best ingredients. I go to Flushing to get Italian bread because the guy on Arthur Avenue makes it thick enough to hold all the ingredients. When people are at a fair and see something really large, they’re going to ask where you get that. The bigger, the better. It’s what people want. What separates me from others are the portions and giving people the best ingredients I find.” Rosie’s Grilled Cheese Truck’s menu changes daily depending on what Hutmacher can find fresh in the markets and what innovative creation he comes up with after a little research. While Hutmacher is always looking to create new sandwiches, he also hopes to one day expand out of his food truck into a kiosk to serve up his two-person serving size sandwiches. But for right now, Hutmacher says he’s “bringing the food to the people and the people seem to really love it.” For more information about Rosie’s Grilled Cheese Truck, call 516-2365807 or email roberthutmacher7@ gmail.com.

Hamptons Home Hosts Charity Event

Ribs For Kids raises more than $200,000 for children with autism BY NICOLE LOCKWOOD nlockWood@antonmediagroup.com

Top chefs representing some of Long Island and Manhattan’s most reputable restaurants recently took to Southampton for the barbecue benefit Ribs For Kids. The event on Saturday, July 15, sponsored by private equity investor Michael Loeb and hosted at his shorefront home, was organized to raise money and awareness for the relatively new nonprofit known as Pop.Earth, the first organization in the country to offer low cost to free holistic health and wellness options to people with autism and developmental disorders. “When it comes to people with autism, they are five times more likely to have unrelated issues, so to help alleviate some of the negative behaviors that come out it’s so important to follow up with health and overall wellness,” said Debbie Stone, founder of Pop.Earth, who has a son on the autism spectrum. “As a country, we’re all making that move toward health and wellness, but I was ahead of the curve in bringing that discussion to special needs. Everybody knows that you are what you eat, yoga has been around for hundreds of years, this is not some mumbo jumbo stuff, just try it and see the benefits.” Pop.Earth works primarily with people affected by developmental disorders over the age of 21, but those of all ages and abilities are welcomed, offering yoga, reiki, massage, art, music, dance, fitness, advocacy and healthy cooking sessions. Both Stone and Franklin Decker, a Pop.Earth board member and seasoned chef with multiple restaurants and Top Chef appearances, were on hand to discuss the future of the nonprofit and its initiatives. The event, the culmination of entrepreneurial drive and a love for cooking, was complete with expert-level culinary delights, complimentary cocktails and wine, poolside banter and music to underscore the night at Loeb’s property, which appears on Showtime’s Billions. The culinary talent, inclusive of chefs from restaurants and catering services such as Black Tap, Butter, Dean & Deluca, Barbuto and Tao, to name a few, were quick to offer their services when approached by event organizer Shu Chowdhury and his friend Decker. “Chefs come together whenever one

of us needs something, it’s been like that as long as I can remember,” said chef Michael Ferraro of Delicatessen, located on Prince Street in Manhattan. “When I need something they’re always there, so especially if it’s for a cause, if a chef asks me to do something, I’m there.” Chowdhury, cofounder of restaurant operating system Salido, has been organizing the event for nearly a year and a half. After attending an entrepreneurial retreat in Loeb’s backyard, tasting the ribs he prepared and considering all the mutual culinary connections the two shared, Chowdhury was inspired to create

something that would bring all those elements together. “Franklin Decker, who is an unbelievable chef, is one of my close friends and he’s done charity work with every single one of these chefs before. Anytime he needs them, they’ll come out,” said Chowdhury. “Chefs are competitors, so when we told them to come out to the Hamptons to prove they have the best ribs and raise some money at the same time, they were on board. With all these guys so eager to come out, we knew this could turn into something big.” Chowdhury’s instincts proved correct, as the event was successful

in raising well over $200,000 through flat out donations, as well as the silent auction and live auction that took place throughout the day. That money will be directed toward establishing the Om Holistic Center for Autism and Developmental Disorders, a New York-based headquarters that would host classes, informative sessions and events. Due to the outpouring of support for Pop.Earth and level of excitement the event was met with, Chowdhury is hopeful that it is one that will become an annual celebration.

An Abundance Of Heart

September marks the start of another new school year and, for football diehards, it’s also the kickoff to a new season. The flowing together of the two brings to mind the moving story of former Florida State University (FSU) wide receiver Travis Rudolph and Bo Paske, a sixth-grade boy with autism. At the start of the school year in 2016, Rudolph and several teammates visited Montford Middle School in Tallahassee, located near the FSU campus. When Travis spotted 11-year-old Bo sitting alone in the cafeteria, he walked over with his slice of pizza, joined him, and struck up a conversation. Travis’ simple act of kindness drew national attention when a photo of the two sitting across from one another went viral. Bo described the lunch as “kind of like me sitting on a rainbow.” Travis remarked: “A lot of people give me credit for doing what I did, even though I just see it as that is me.” Bo told Travis that he was a big FSU fan. The two of them stayed in touch after their first encounter. Leah Paske, Bo’s mom, wrote about it on Facebook: “Several times lately I have tried to remember my time in middle school. Did I have many friends? Did I sit with anyone at lunch? Just how mean were kids really? Now that I have a child starting middle school, I have feelings of anxiety for him, and they can be overwhelming. Sometimes I’m grateful for his autism. That may sound like a terrible thing to say, but in some ways I think, I hope, it shields him. He doesn’t seem to notice when people stare at him when he flaps his hands. He doesn’t seem to notice that he doesn’t get invited to birthday parties anymore. And he doesn’t seem to mind if he eats lunch alone.” She went on to say, “A friend of mine sent this beautiful picture to me today and when I saw it with the

PARENTHOOD PLUS Andrew Malekoff

caption ‘Travis Rudolph is eating lunch with your son’ I replied ‘Who is that?’ He said ‘FSU football player,’ then I had tears streaming down my face. I’m not sure what exactly made this incredibly kind man share a lunch table with my son, but I’m happy to say that it will not soon be forgotten. This is one day I didn’t have to worry if my sweet boy ate lunch alone, because he sat across from someone

who is a hero in many eyes.” Difference and inclusion are terms that are increasingly in vogue in today’s public schools. Growing numbers of children who were previously separated in special education classes and schools are being integrated into the “mainstream” in order to reduce costs and provide less restrictive environments for learning and social-emotional development. Labeled children, particularly as they approach adolescence, are often objectified, devalued, isolated and ridiculed by their peers. Objectification robs individuals of their humanity. In such relationships the different child simply becomes “the other,” the one too often left out in the cold. In an era when there seems to be no shortage of awful stories generating

from college campuses, the story and photo of Travis and Bo is a breath of fresh air. Henry James said that “a good story is both a picture and idea, and that the picture and the idea should try to be interfused.” The picture of Travis joining Bo at the lunch table tells us that a simple act of kindness can go a long way to making a difference in someone’s life. We learned from Travis that what it takes is just a little effort—and an abundance of heart.

Museum Welcomes British Armor Legend The Museum of American Armor is now home to a British World War II armor legend, the Dingo, an armored scout car that would have been found on the beaches of Dunkirk during the retreat of 1940 and helping liberate the Nazi death camps in 1945. The Dingo is one of the vehicles found in the background of the current movie Dunkirk. Several hundred of these scout cars were left throughout France as the British were forced to abandon all their equipment while being rescued by a flotilla of Royal Navy ships and private vessels following German victories. The Dingo had 4-wheel drive for reliable off-road travel and also 4-wheel steering, giving the compact

scout car an incredibly tight turning radius of less than 25 feet. The Daimler 6-cylinder engine could power the Dingo to over 50 MPH, yet combined with a sizable fuel tank, was economical enough to give

the car a range of about 200 miles. Its two-man crew, a driver and a radio operator/gunner, was protected by relatively light armor, but capable of stopping most enemy pistol and rifle rounds.

Children And Lying

While parents may be concerned when their child lies, it is not necessarily a sign of a potential problem. It can actually be a sign that your child is developing important psychological skills, as lying requires executive function skills including working memory and planning. In fact, preschoolers with higher IQ scores are more likely to lie, and there is a link between early lying and social skills in adolescence. Truth telling and lying are concepts children begin to understand as they grow and develop.

Toddlers

Toddlers do not understand that lying is wrong. Don’t focus on his admitting the untruth. Narrate what is happening “all your lunch is on the floor” rather than confronting “did you throw your lunch on the floor?” What may look like a lie might be an honest mistake or an attempt to protect oneself. The lines are blurred between reality, wishes, daydreams, and fantasies.

Preschoolers

Lies preschoolers tell may be about their wishful thinking. They can also be an extension of play. At times, they are still figuring out what the difference is between fantasy and reality. We can help them understand when it is appropriate to tell tall tales and when the truth needs to be told. To help children discern the difference, parents may say “let’s talk about why telling the truth is important” or “are you absolutely sure that’s what happened?”

School age

At this age, children begin to have the ability to tell a “white lie.” That is a sign of social awareness as it is told to benefit someone or spare someone’s feelings. Praise truth telling. Model

Tweens

PARENTING MATTERS Graziella Simonetti being honest in ordinary situations. Telling someone “I can’t wait to see you” and then talking about how much you are dreading it within earshot of your child can send a mixed message about the truth. Having the child tell a telemarketer that you are not home may seem innocent, but is teaching your child to lie. When you have to teach your children to navigate tricky social situations around truth telling, such as thanking someone for a gift he does not like, tell him to think about the time the person took to choose it or the money the person spent.

More upfront and longer conversations about lying will take place during this stage. Remember that children who have strong relationships with parents and feel safe to share information with families are more likely to be truthful. No matter your child’s age when the lie occurs, respond calmly. Discuss the importance of honesty and trust. One study found that the story of George Washington and the cherry tree was significantly more effective than the boy who cried wolf in impacting children’s use of lying. Therefore, praise your child for honesty more than you punish for lying. Let your children know the natural consequence that occurs when they are truthful. “When you are honest, I am more likely to believe what you say and trust you.” As an adult, you may have lied to avoid getting in trouble or to prevent someone being upset with you. You

may have felt worried about being judged. Children, too, have a reason for which they lied. Whether it is about a blurred line between fantasy and reality due to their development, or for one of the same reasons that you, as an adult, have lied, it may serve a function. Support your child’s development and emotions, and set limits where necessary. Rarely, lying is an indication of a more serious issue. If you have concerns, be sure to consult a mental health practitioner. 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.

Stuff-A-Bus Campaign The Long Island Nets are partnering with United Way of Long Island as part of their 9th annual Stuff-A-Bus campaign to help local students from low-income families head back to school prepared, with new backpacks and other essential school supplies. With the support of Senator Kemp Hannon, Senator Elaine Phillips, Target and Burger King, the Long Island Nets will be able to provide thousands of school supplies to the Uniondale School District and other Town of Hempstead beneficiaries through the program. Through Aug. 20, the Long Island

Nets will be collecting school supplies at various locations throughout Nassau County, which will be distributed to students in advance of the 2017-18 school year. Visit www. longislandnets.com/StuffABus for a list of drop-off locations. Community members are asked to participate by donating new school supplies and backpacks. Suggested items for donation include binders, colored pencils, erasers, glue sticks, notebooks, pencils, pens and backpacks. The deadline for donations to be collected through the Long Island Nets is Sunday, Aug. 20.

The initiative will culminate with “Stuff-A-Bus” Day at NYCB LIVE, home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, on Wednesday, Aug. 23, from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. in the Exhibition Hall. During this time, volunteers will help sort and pack the essential items students need at the start of the new school year. Over the past eight years, United Way of Long Island’s Stuff-A-Bus program has provided hundreds of thousands of school supplies to Long Island students through partnering with four Long Island bus transportation companies

(Suffolk Transportation Service, Inc. Educational Bus Transportation, Huntington Coach Corporation, East End Bus Lines). There are several ways for organizations and individuals to get involved: • Stuff-A-Bus Collection Drives: Through Aug. 20 • Stuff-A-Bus Sort-A-Thon: Wednesday, Aug. 23 at the Coliseum • Make a contribution through the Long Island Nets/United Way of Long Island fundraising page (www.unitedwayli.org/ HelpStuffABus)

d n a l s I y t i C A Charming Side Of NYC

BY BETSY ABRAHAM

BaBraHam@antonmediagroup.com

For Long Island travelers looking for a quick escape off the beaten path, City Island offers a laid-back retreat close to home. It’s hard to believe the Island locale shares a zip code with Yankee Stadium and the Bronx Zoo. The quaint neighborhood, with its plethora of seafood restaurants, coastal views and rich nautical history, is more reminiscent of a small town in New England than the Bronx suburb it’s situated in. And though it’s only a mere 18 miles away from midtown Manhattan, City Island stays truer to the second half of its name, with squawking seagulls and boat launches more plentiful than skyscrapers and yellow cabs. Located outside of Pelham Bay Park, City Island is a hidden gem, attracting visitors from all over the city and

Westchester County for its fresh, world-class seafood, charming shops and maritime past. While it may boast many of the same attractions that draw visitors to Long Island, what makes City Island a worthwhile destination is how laid-back it is, a perfect day-cation getaway for some good eats, vintage shopping and beautiful views. “It’s the kind of place you go to take in the sights and the history and just relax. It’s an incredibly comfortable place,” said Skip Giacco, president of the City Island Chamber of Commerce. Like most beach communities, the Island’s peak tourist season runs from the end of June to the beginning of September. But for Giacco and other Island residents, the community’s charm was a year-round attraction. “It’s a small town, there’s nothing trendy about it,” said Giacco. “It’s very relaxed and comfortable. Everybody knows everybody. It’s a

throwback in many ways to a simpler time.” And though it’s a small community, City Island makes great use of its real estate. The one-and-ahalf-mile long and six-block wide island boasts 17 restaurants (about 10 list seafood as their main fare), in addition to three yacht clubs, three art galleries, two antique stores, two dessert spots, a nautical museum, public school and a theatre group which puts on regular performances. Adding to the picturesque landscape are charming Victorian and colonial homes, some dating back to the late 1880s. The dog days of summer call for a break from busy schedules and hard work, and City Island offers a place where the hardest thing visitors will have to do is choose which restaurant to get their fresh-off-the-boat lobster from. Whether you’re going for a day or a weekend, City Island offers a charming side of New York City that is rarely seen, but absolutely worth discovering. Map courtesy of Google Maps

A Seafood Lover’s Paradise

City Island is a destination for under-the-sea fare

Archie’s offers a modern twist on classic American favorites. (Photo source: Archie’s Facebook page)

One of—if not the main—draw for the thousands of visitors that descend upon City Island each year is it’s wide array of fresh off the boat, finger-licking good seafood. Lobster reigns supreme, but the Island makes mighty boasts in its clams, shrimp and crab selection. And for those who’d rather their seafood stay in the ocean than on their plate, there are plenty of City Island eateries offering delicious bites for a variety of tastes. Here’s a few of the standout eateries keeping us coming back to the Bronx.

The Black Whale This quaint and cozy eatery features an extensive menu featuring everything from meatloaf to rigatoni to beef stew and Maryland Crab Cakes. While some restaurants find their quality diminishes in correlation to how many items they add to their menu, that’s certainly not the case at the Black Whale, where every dish, be it a pasta, chicken, or seafood entrée, is cooked to perfection. Also praiseworthy is the Sunday brunch, a buffet which includes the usual contenders of sausage, bacon and eggs, as well as French toast, pancakes, bread pudding and waffles.

Archie’s Tap and Table In a streetscape dominated by seafood restaurants, Archie’s stands out for exceptional, mouthwatering cuisine you won’t find anyplace else. The gastropub puts a modern American twist on homemade comfort food and with locally sourced ingredients, each dish stands out for its freshness. Daily specials add variety, but dependable favorites on the menu include the King Crab Mac and Cheese, Buttermilk Fried Chicken and Waffles and the Grilled Cajun Pork Chop, all

City Island Lobster House City Island Lobster House is an icon on the Island, not only for its giant sign at the entrance to the Island, but for its outstanding seafood selection. Diners can sit waterside, as they enjoy huge portions of shrimp linguine Alfredo, fried salmon, calamari salad or lobster from either Alaska or Maryland. The menu includes King Crab and Blue Claw Crabs, and diners can enjoy the crustacean in many glorious forms, including steamed, broiled, in paella, or stuffed with shrimp or crab meat.

topped off well with the apple crisp or warm bread pudding for dessert.

The Original Crab Shanty Restaurant For a seafood dinner without any pretense, the Crab Shanty is the place to go. Serving up flavorful seafood dishes, as well as hearty Italian fare, the Shanty has garnered

fame for its generous portions, fresh fare and excellent service. Crustacean lovers will delight in the spicy Mediterranean Crabs, served Baltimore style, or the Dungeness Crab, stuffed with crab meat. For diners looking to sample the best of under-the-sea dining, the Crab Shanty offers myriad combination platters; the broiled seafood combination includes shrimp, scallops, fish clams, baked mussels and half a lobster tail, while the popular fried fisherman’s platter serves up filet of fish, calamari, scallops and shrimp.

Lickety Split Every good meal ends with dessert and this charming ice cream shop is the perfect place to grab a scoop (or two) to satisfy that sweet tooth. Housed in an old cottage, the small forest green shop serves up generous servings of ice cream, available in a wide array of both classic and unconventional flavors. Banana splits, hot fudge brownie sundaes, pies and shakes are also on the menu. —By Betsy Abraham

Take A Full Ride To Another Country Perhaps the only time in your life when you are offered free travel and free international opportunities through a university is as a student. Take advantage of this time in your life to study abroad and whether you wish to visit for a summer, a semester, or an entire year, it’s likely to become the defining experience of your college career. Studying abroad provides an opportunity for students to improve their foreign language skills that they have been diligently working at and increase their understanding of other cultures beyond their home classroom. Funding your student travel and study abroad may seem overwhelming – there are currency exchanges, expensive tuition fees, visas, and travel costs just to get there. Luckily, though, there are a number of different American foundations that are giving away hundreds of thousands of dollar in scholarship money as an incentive for you to leave the country and come back a more worldly individual. Start by checking out the offerings in the study abroad office of your own school, and expand your research outward from there. If you’re interested in applying for national scholarships for student travel and study abroad, look no further than the Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholarships, the National Security Education Program (NSEP) David L. Boren Undergraduate Scholarships, and the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarships. These prestigious fund pools represent three of the nation’s leading awards, and you will want to pay close attention to their eligibility requirements and application suggestions to give yourself the best shot at receiving money for free travel abroad.

Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholarships Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholarships are awarded to students who have completed at least two years of college-level coursework. Scholarships of up to $26,000 can be used to pay for tuition, fees, educational supplies, round-trip transportation, and basic living expenses. Scholarships are awarded to students who demonstrate academic excellence, outstanding leadership skills, a high level of maturity, and a commitment to community service, as well as a passion for history, politics, and culture. Rotary International is poised to begin offering a new form of financial

incentive: global grants. These will be targeted towards students who care deeply about the sustainability and long-term impact of the work they will be doing abroad. These $30,000 grants will be organized into six different areas of interest, dealing mostly with sustainable development, education and health. Scholarship and grant winners are expected to give regular presentations and participate in Rotary service projects during their study abroad. If you are interested in applying for a Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholarship or a Global Grant, contact your local Rotary club to begin the application process.

National Security Education Program (NSEP) David L. Boren Undergraduate Scholarships The National Security Education Program David L. Boren Undergraduate Scholarships are awarded to students with a record of academic excellence, foreign language proficiency, and a desire to use international study to advance their careers. Scholarship amounts are based on actual program costs, with the maximum award being $20,000 for a full academic year.

Scholarships come with a requirement that students spend at least one year working in the Departments of Homeland Security, Defense, State, or the Intelligence Community after the completion of their study abroad program. This is a perfect opportunity for a student looking for the commitment of a bundled package of study abroad, travel, and future career placement.

Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship The Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship is slightly different from other study abroad scholarships in that recipients must demonstrate both academic achievement and financial need. To be eligible for a scholarship, you must be necessarily low-income and have been awarded a Pell Grant from your college or university, as well as submit an essay that describes how your study abroad program will enhance your educational experience. The maximum award is $5,000, but scholarships vary based on financial need and program costs. Since the Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship doesn’t have a summer cycle, interested students must be completing academic year programs that are at least four weeks long. Multi-country study

abroad programs are acceptable only if the student spends at least four weeks in one country.

More Ways To Travel Do not neglect the resources of your local college and university when it comes to searching for travel abroad monies. See what they have to offer in terms of placing and funding, and remember that some study abroad departments will even allow particularly motivated and intentional students to create their own specialized paths of study by partnering with an international university or degree program in which they are interested. Once you are abroad, be sure to take advantage of all the opportunities offered only to students. Studying abroad may be one of the most fruitful times in your life to go traveling, since with a little work and research, you will find organizations willing to pay for or discount nearly every aspect of your expenses. Many countries offer free or cheap transportation passes, food discounts, and entertainment vouchers specifically for study abroad students, so make sure you check with your host country to see what is available to you.

Before Traveling Abroad 3 1 Here are five things to consider before you travel abroad.

Read the state department’s traveler’s checklist

Find out how to plan a safe trip, what documents you need, how to handle money overseas and more (travel.state. gov/content/passports/en/go/checklist. html).

Stay connected with the state department

Follow the state department’s “TravelGov” Facebook and Twitter accounts to get safety and security information, especially during a crisis overseas. You can also sign up for security updates through the department’s Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP.state.gov). Giving your contact details will help expedite emergency outreach. In case you need help, like if your passport is lost or stolen, always carry the address and phone number of the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate, in English and the local language.

...and with those back home

Agree on regular times to check in with family and friends to let them know you are okay. Will you do it via text, email, social media or phone? Check into an international cell phone plan or buying SIM cards with minutes/data in the countries where you’ll be. Cafes, museums and libraries are places that often have free wifi to connect your device.

Have a plan for emergencies

Think about what you would do if there were an emergency or crisis when you’re abroad. Check social media, TV and radio to hear what local authorities are advising.

Make sure you have insurance for unexpected travel, medical, and evacuation expenses

These can cost thousands of dollars and cut short your trip. Think about buying additional insurance coverage. —Provided by the U.S. Department of State

A visit to Old Westbury Gardens is lovelier than ever while dozens of Seward Johnson’s marvelous sculptures are on display across the grounds. The artist is one of the most highly regarded of our time and his works fit into the landscape of the English country-style estate like they’ve been there forever. Cast in bronze, these figures are scattered all over the 200 acres. Some engage in everyday activities while others are reminiscent of great artists like Monet and Renoir. Johnson matches the painterly quality of the art that inspires him with his brushstrokes and brings these famous paintings into the world of three dimensions. You’ll never feel quite alone among the lifelike figures, which dance, cloud-watch and steal away for private moments where you least expect them. Hurry up and experience this unique exhibition while the land is lush and green. Seward Johnson at Old Westbury Gardens continues through Sept. 4.

Muse Lights Up Jones Beach BY KIMBERLY DIJKSTRA

This was also the moment giant confetti-filled balloons were unleashed in the stadium, surprising those whose heads provoked their explosions. Wild streamers and confetti filled the entire venue, lit by spotlights in a spectacular scene. Capping off the night, an epic video depicting a post-apocalyptic world synced with “Uprising” and “Knights of Cydonia.” The encore exemplified why a Muse concert is amazing to experience live.

kdijkstra@antonmediagroup.com

A little rain is no deterrent to Muse fans. The English rock band, consisting of Matt Bellamy, Chris Wolstenholme and Dominic Howard, drew big numbers to Jones Beach Theater last Saturday evening, despite the weather. The trio’s dynamic showmanship and theatrics never disappoint. Muse is currently on tour with special guest 30 Seconds to Mars. Fronted by Oscar-winner Jared Leto, the alternative rock band also consists of Shannon Leto and Tomo Miličević. They played a powerful set, closing with “Closer to the Edge” off of 2010’s This is War, inviting dozens of awestruck fans onto the stage, every one of which recorded the thrilling moment on their cell phones to relive time and time again. New single “Dig Down” opened the headliner’s show with a bang. Vocalist and guitarist Matt Bellamy strutted around the stage in red skinny jeans, shutter shades and a floral bomber jacket revving the motor of that guitar like no other. Cutting-edge graphics displayed on modular video screens depicted the electrical current running through all human beings. The anti-authoritarian theme ran strong with songs like “Psycho,”

introduced by a shouting drill sergeant, “Mercy” and “The Globalist,” all off the band’s seventh studio album, Drones, a Grammy-winning concept album about the dehumanization of modern warfare. No song was more apropos than “Resistance,” with the protagonist’s fear of the ‘thought police,’ in an age when the default setting of many in this country is tuned to ‘resist.’ The word resistance has taken on a new meaning over past months and who better to provide the soundtrack to this unending struggle than Muse. “Hysteria,” with its frenzied flashing lights and power grunge fervor, had every pair of hands clapping in unison. Crowd-pleaser “Time Is Running

Bellamy made his way out into the stadium seats to perform “Starlight,” one of the revelations from 2006’s Black Holes & Revelations. He dedicated the song to Chester Bennington, vocalist for Linkin Park who sadly died by suicide earlier this month. The lyrics speak directly to the suicide epidemic in this country, reiterating that there is always someone who cares if you live or die. Bennington’s death has hit Linkin Park followers hard and “Starlight” provided a brief catharsis for the many fans in the Jones Beach audience that the bands had in common.

8 Tour brings Incubus, with Jimmy Eat World, to Jones Beach BY KIMBERLY DIJKSTRA kdijkstra@antonmediagroup.com

Incubus, with special guests Jimmy Eat World and Judah and the Lion, lit up Jones Beach Theater last Wednesday night. The alt-rock nu-metal giant’s latest album, 8, was released in April, two years after their last EP, Trust Fall, and six years since their last fulllength studio album, If Not Now, When? Fans came out in droves for the Long Island stop on the 8 Tour, which featured a thorough sampling of the new tracks as well as appearances by most of the singles devotees want to hear. Jimmy Eat World’s lengthy set highlighted familiar tunes from the past and songs from October 2016’s Integrity Blues, their 9th album. After the sun disappeared and the anticipation of the crowd reached its peak, the headliner opened with “Love in the Time of Surveillance.” The stage theatrics came to life with tilting landing strips leading to a stargate overhead. Vocalist Brandon Boyd was projected into the luminous ring like the man in the moon in between interstellar imagery. Incubus concluded the warm evening with an encore of the mellow “Aqueous Transmission,” from 2001’s Morning View. The song employs the use of the Chinese instrument the pipa, which doesn’t turn up at many rock concerts, but left an impression at this one.

Shirley Manson’s Fave Musicians BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO dgilderuBio@antonmediagroup.com

Currently on the road with friend and mentor Debbie Harry, Shirley Manson of Garbage has always been a striking person on stage, going back to her days as the keyboardist for Scottish alt-rockers Goodbye Mr. Mackenzie or fronting the band’s side project Angelfish. Influenced early on by her mother’s jazz collection, Manson has never been one to shy away from talking up influences that include the aforementioned Harry along with the likes of Patti Smith and Chrissie Hynde. Here are three more artists who’ve resonated with the Edinburgh native on so many levels.

Garbage Talk BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO dgilderuBio@antonmediagroup.com

Amid the guitar-driven, nihilistic and male-driven landscape that was the alt-rock dominated music scene of the 1990s, Garbage proved to be a distinctive and contrary sound in this wilderness. Rather than primarily rely on riffing and volume, the quartet instead went down a soundscape-soaked path not unlike shoegazing outfits like My Bloody Valentine and Lush with more distinctive pop nuances. And while this kind of studio sleight-of-hand can be credited with the fact that three-fourths of the band consists of music producers/engineers (Butch Vig, Duke Erikson, Steve Marker), Scottish vocalist Shirley Manson was and continues to be the distinctive focal point that’s helped make Garbage such a singular musical presence. And while there was a seven-year hiatus for the group from 2005 to 2012, the foursome are celebrating 24 years together. A 20th anniversary tour commemorating the band’s self-titled 1995 tour was followed up by the release of last year’s Strange Little Birds, Garbage’s sixth studio album. It’s a collection of songs that Manson feels was an unfortunate harbinger of the right-leaning turn of events that the world was about to take in the wake of the SLB’s June 2016 release. “We released it last year in June and it’s quite a different record in the way that it was quite a somber record and I think that’s primarily because we felt these were somber times,” she explained. “As it turns out, I think we were able to predict what was happening in the world—this massive wave of populism and a real turn towards conservatism. There was a whole wave of this kind of populism and it scared us a little. So you can definitely hear that on the record.” It’s easy to hear what Manson is talking about when you ease into the swirling morass of synthesizer swooshes and the plodding beat of “Even

Though Our Love is Doomed” as she sings “And even though our love is cruel/And even though our stars are crossed/You’re the only thing worth fighting for/You’re the only thing worth dying for.” Or the stark, Portishead-ish opening track “Sometimes” in which Manson solemnly states, “Sometimes I’d rather take a beating/Sometimes I’d rather take a punch/I learn more about bleeding/You knock me down, then I get up.” This kind of railing against the current status quo manifests itself beautifully on “So We Can Stay Alive,” where the trip-hoppy cadences share space with dive-bombing guitar chords and space-age sound effects as Manson sings, “You’re the one who should be on trial/For all your hate and your denial/Be careful what it is you break/Every broken thing can’t be fixed.” And while the current inhabitant of the White House wasn’t occupying the Oval Office when this song was written, there’s a definite prescient thread running through it. As for what fans can expect on this current tour with Blondie as well as future headlining dates in the fall, Manson laughs as she jokingly admonishes anyone coming to her band’s show with any kind of expectations aside from the fact that Garbage will, “...do our utmost to put on a good show.” That said, attendees will be pleased by the set list. “A lot of times, all [fans] want to hear are the hits that they learned to love on the radio. But we feel that we want to do a broad spectrum of our catalog at this point and we will be playing songs from all six of our records that span from 1995 to 2017,” she said. “We have a brand-new song that we just wrote that we are performing. And despite the fact that nobody has ever heard the song, we are determined to put that into the set. We just try to tell a story of where we are at any given time and that changes through the years and even through a tour.” Visit www.longislandweekly.com to read a longer version of this story.

“I heard Nina Simone sing and something in my very young body connected with this voice, attitude and cadence. Nina Simone has been someone that I have constantly gone back to listen to. As I’ve gotten older, my appreciation for her has grown even more as I discover how active she was in the Civil Rights Movement. How political she was and plagued with difficulties she was and yet, she still sang for me, with the voice of God. She was just extraordinary.”

David Bowie

“He was arguably the most influential on my career from a male perspective. He’s probably the dominating male figure in my musical development. I’m still grateful that at a young age, I gravitated to artists of not only great talent, but an ability to endure and make astounding records while being real pioneers. My love for him is endless.”

Siouxsie Sioux

“She’s another person who, when I was really young, set fire to my imagination because she felt genderless to me in a funny way. She was not female nor male. She didn’t seem very conventional. She seemed like she had arrived from space. She had a real strength about her that up until that point of discovering her, I wasn’t aware a woman could embody. She taught me that women could stand on equal footing with men, be as fierce, be as courageous and be as rebellious ad infinitum. She changed the way I viewed my own gender.” Garbage will be appearing with Blondie on Aug. 1 at the Beacon Theatre, 74th Street & Broadway. NYC.

UFC Fight Night: Weidman Versus Gastelum

17A

BY DAMON MARTIN editorial@antonmediagroup.com

It was a night filled with upsets when the UFC landed in Long Island, New York for the first time, as hometown favorite and former middleweight champion Chris Weidman got back on track with a rousing submission victory against surging contender Kelvin Gastelum in the main event. Despite coming into the fight as a former titleholder at 185 pounds, Weidman was going up against the odds after losing three in a row, but it appears that competing at home agrees with the Long Islander. Weidman used a powerful wrestling attack to ground Gastelum several times through the opening two rounds as he tried to wear out the former Ultimate Fighter winner, who was giving up a lot of size after moving up from the welterweight division. To his credit, Gastelum did a good job getting back up from underneath Weidman and he even knocked the former champion down but wasn’t able to capitalize. Finally in the third, on the strength of another takedown and ground attack, Weidman secured an arm triangle choke that put Gastelum away as he celebrated a win in front of a raucous New York audience. Heading into the fight, Weidman was a decent underdog according to fantasy players, with only 46 percent picking him to win going up against Gastelum, who had 54 percent on his side. Ultimately, Weidman not only got the upset win, but he also earned an extra 120 points thanks to his fight with Gastelum being such a tough matchup to pick. Visit the news tab at www.ufc.com for the full version of this recap. Damon Martin writes for UFC.

w Holiday Mathis Holiday Mathis Mathis HOROSCOPES ByByByHoliday ARIES (March 21-April 19). The contradictions will be abundant: action and inaction, war and peace, still power, pure potential that’s somehow waiting to be and yet already realized. “All well and good in the mind of a meditating monk,” you think, “but what is my next move?” The ultimate (and perhaps only) move: Stay centered and accept now.

INTERNATIONAL WORD FIND See The Animals Solution: 25 Letters

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Some believe that artists are not creators so much as conduits for creation, plucking ideas out of the ether and pulling them through themselves. When you’re in creative mode -- as you will be for much of this week -- even you will not be sure exactly whence the inspiration comes, though come it will. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re a very physical person, though you don’t get to express it as often as you’d like. So much of life is spent seated. To move is to be free. Increase the action this week. Break out of a pattern. When you want to run, run. When you feel like dancing, dance. Do it regardless of who else is, or what others might think. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You are to the universe as a wave is to the ocean. No creature can experience the whole ocean, but many know the experience of a wave. This week you will not be in complete control over the intensity of your presence. Feelings fluctuate from gentle and beautiful to mighty and overpowering -- all valid and important.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Surprisingly, many people have yet to learn the basics of conversation. The first rule is not to interrupt. And to monopolize the conversation, listen poorly, argue stubbornly or belittle anyone’s ideas is totally bad form. It’s going to be up to you to bring back the civilized tone when things take an arrogant turn. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re the master of ceremonies this week. Wherever you go, you set the tone. You make introductions and bring people together. You’re quick-witted, alert and reliable. And you’re in a position to pass the spotlight to talented people. Feature those who are experienced, also those who need the opportunity to develop. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It is possible (and likely, even) to be overweight and undernourished. Quantity doesn’t equal nutrition, and may in fact be harmful. The concept will apply to other areas of your life this week. “More” isn’t necessarily enough. Better to have a little of what’s right than a lot of anything else. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your wish will be a tall order, but not out of line or out of the realm of possibility. If they balk at your request, it only means you’re asking the wrong person. Don’t take it personally. Act with goodwill and keep moving until you find what you’re looking for. You’ll soon find yourself among accomplished and helpful people. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll be given a general direction, and then you can figure out for yourself what style of execution works best for you. Note that the direction you’ll be given may not sound general at all. It may seem that someone is trying to micromanage you, in fact, but don’t take offense. Use the pointers as guidelines. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re ready and looking for someone to fill a role in your life. It’s not a necessary role -- the play could certainly go on without that addition -- yet it would be wonderful to find what you seek. You’re looking for brilliance, forcefulness and courage in action -- in other words, for someone to match what you bring to the scene. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Those who have hurt you will present a difficult paradox. They are the hardest people to act compassionately toward, and yet they are also the ones who need your compassion most. On the bright side, difficult emotional work like this is an opportunity for advanced souls to become quickly wiser and stronger.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

You know what it’s like to feel lost, and this helps you appreciate the absolute certainty you often experience this year. Your psychic ability will be a dominant force in decision-making. This may not come in any extraordinary form. Rather you’ll often find yourself in the perfect place at the perfect time, with a strong instinct about what to do next. Loving people will figure into your life even more so in 2018, finding practical ways to help you and support your mission. February through May brings the fun and excitement.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Be wary of those who come at their interests with religious vehemence and want you to do the same. In the case of actual religion, double up on your protective instincts. The truth is something people don’t have to be converted into. It has a feeling to it. It brings with it a clarity of being. Seek truth, not promises.

BOOK REVIEW

Poetic Dream Weaver BY DAVE GIL DE RUBIO

out. The reason why the book is called Side Effects is because life is a series of actions and every action has its reaction, consequence and side effect. So steemed Lebanese-American poet Khalil if I was to see something and it hits me a certain Gibran once said that people should, “Trust way, I’m reacting to it. How I’m processing it is the in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to side effect of that,” she explained. “And that’s kind eternity.” It’s something Lauren Lawrence of what I’m writing, so it does have a deeper level takes to heart as the dreams columnist for the New that I’m somehow trying to connect to the dream York Daily News.

Sometimes I read my work and this role since 2008, following a brief you know that it’s something deeper, stint back in the late 1990s, Lawrence it’s just not coming from a place of has used her expertise to not only instraight consciousness, but rather a terpret dreams submitted by readers memory or a past reaction.” from places as far away as Dubai, Mali Having recently lost her 96-yearand Russia, but is also the author of old mother, there is a considerable six dream-related books including the amount of pain and loss woven into 2002 coffee table book Private Dreams many of Lawrence’s poems, some of Public People. With the recent of which bear titles like “At the End,” publication of Side Effects, the New “Death’s Difficult Hill,” “Stanchions York City native is sharing her love of of Sadness” and the more-straightpoetry in this slim compendium of forward “Grief.” Lines like, “Grief’s air work that she’s published in various is the thinnest at the heights/A lost outlets over the years, including the smile will find another face/Comfort Columbia Review, New York Quarterly Author/columnist Lauren will tear off its little fur hat and feel the Lawrence and The Harvard Advocate.

examination that it demands. “Dreams start a discourse with the self and I think poems do the same. When you dream, you’re interpreting yourself, which I always want people to do, which is the most important thing. Then they understand all that they’ve been repressing,” she said. “Poems also start this kind of discourse, because you also go into yourself a little more. It’s personal the way a dream is because you might see something in it that someone else won’t. What makes it so nice is the suggestability of it and how open interpretation can be with both dreams and poetry.”
