TOP STORY

Lipari Joins Nassau Greats JOSEPH SCOTCHIE jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com

hese days, Emily Lipari lives in Hawaii, but her Roslyn home is always on her mind. On Sept. 28, the track superstar experienced the best homecoming anyone could ask for. She attended her formal induction into the Nassau County Hall of Fame, one that took place at the Crest Hollow County Club in Woodbury. In between that and visits with the family and friends, Lipari, on her Facebook page, remarked: “Spent a wonderful week back home in NY and closed it out in a special way! I felt so honored to be inducted into the Nassau County Hall of Fame (section 8 for all those NY runners out there)! So many amazing athletes across the county who went on to do great things! Been chasing the dream so long that sometimes its easy to forget where it all began, the pure love and joy for the sport. It was so grounding to be back home and remembering those HS accomplishments. Which at the time I remember always wanting more and was guilty of not being completely present. As training starts ramping up this fall, it was a beautiful reminder that it’s okay to have big goals, but be kind to yourself on the journey and celebrate the successes along the way. Thanks section 8. It will always be a special place for me.” The Hall of Fame recognized the runner as who “dominated New York State and Long Island distance running at Roslyn. Won multiple county, state, and national titles. Set a slew of school, county, and state records. A once-in-a-lifetime athlete. Ran for Villanova where she was 11-time AllAmerican and two-time NCAA champion.” The Hall of Fame, according to officials,

Lipari was honored at the Nassau Hall of Fame. (Photos courtesy of Lipari’s Instagram) is organized “as a means of recognizing, preserving, and promoting the heritage of interscholastic sports in Nassau County. Many individuals have made extraordinary contributions and have had superb accomplishments in high school sports. The Nassau County High School Athletics Hall of Fame honors the contributions and accomplishments of these individuals who

are worthy of county-wide recognition.” Although her career is far from over, the induction was a culmination of a journey where Lipari started out as an ace soccer player until she was inspired by her older brother, Tom, himself a track star at both Roslyn High School and Marist, to take up track. That she did with splendid results. “As I got older I continued with soccer,”

Lipari told The Roslyn News in a 2017 interview. “I was on a travel team in high school and we won several state championships. I actually always thought that I was going to college for soccer, but when I got to the eighth grade my parents suggested that I start running in the off-season as well,” she said. “As I started running, my passion for it just grew and I realized that I loved being in control of my own destiny. When you’re on a soccer team, win or lose, you don’t really have much control over it because you’re with 11 or 12 other people. But I love to win—I’m a very competitive person—and when you’re on the track, your destiny is controlled completely by you. If you have a good or bad day, it’s all on you, and I really just loved it.” Lipari graduated from Roslyn High School in 2010. From there, it was on to Villanova University in Philadelphia, home to a legendary track program. At Villanova, Lipari was considered one of the top middle-distance and cross-country runners in the history of their track program. In 2014, she won the 2014 NCAA Indoor Championship Mile in 4:38.82 After graduation, Lipari signed a contract with Adidas and has since professionally engaged in athletic competition, focusing on contests such as the 1,500-meter and one-mile races. The Roslyn native recently finished fourth at the 2023 USATF Cross Country Championships 10K (32:31.7), earning a Team USA berth at the World Athletics Cross Country Championships in Bathurst, Australia. In 2022, Lipari debuted in the 10,000 meters at The TEN in March, clocking a fast 31:24.82. In April, she finished third at the B.A.A. Invitational Mile and later in the month, Lipari won her third USA title at the Grand Blue Mile, clocking 4:33 (4:32.3). In July, the two-time race champion finished

NEIGHBORS IN THE NEWS RMS Hosts Bryant Librarians This past September, two librarians from The Bryant Library met with sixthgrade English students to introduce and discuss the middle school programs and resources offered at the library. The students were given the opportunity to sign up for an adult library card, and afforded time to browse the middle school library shelves to pick out a new independent reading book. “We support a culture of pleasure reading at Roslyn

Middle School and we are grateful for the partnership we have with our incredible local library,” said English Chair Jennifer Sapir. “The librarians have been remarkably gracious in offering their time and knowledge to our students and we look forward to continuing our very productive partnership.” —Submitted by Cynthia Younker for the Roslyn School District

Buddy Bingo At Harbor Hill In a heartwarming kick-off to the school year, Harbor Hill Elementary School students from Mrs. Kaplan’s third-grade class and Ms. Roy’s first-grade class met their buddies for the first time and bonded over an exciting game of bingo. This activity fosters empathy, leadership, and inclusivity, and sets the stage for a year of shared learning and growth. Each bingo square posed a unique question that encouraged students to share and learn about one another. Laughter filled the

room as they built bridges between grade levels, making connections and developing new friendships. “It was so fun to watch our students get to know each other better,” said Mrs. Kaplan. “The third graders were so excited to have younger buddies and they are looking forward to serving as role models to the first graders throughout this school year.” —Submitted by Cynthia Younker for the Roslyn School District

Shelter Spotlight Meet Suzette The shelter did Suzette’s DNA and she is mostly English Bulldog with some Rottweiler, Pit Bull Terrier, and Husky. She is estimated to be about 4 years old. She is outgoing and affectionate (she loves to give kisses and get belly rubs), but is the type of dog that can sometimes want things her own way. The shelter is seeking a dog savvy family without young kids to open their home to her. If you would like to learn more about Suzette, please call the shelter at 516-869-6311 for more information. The shelter is currently facilitating adoptions through appointment only. If you arrive at the shelter without an appointment to meet a dog, they may not be able to assist you. Please call the shelter (516-869-6311) during working hours (Mon. to Fri. 9 a.m.-4 p.m.; Sat. 10 a.m.-4 p.m.) for more information about this dog, the adoption process at the shelter, and to confirm

Suzette availability. Please go to www.theshelterconnection.org for more information about and directions to the shelter.

Meet Milo Four year old Milo may be the cutest thing you ever see! This sweet boy is so low to the ground he may have Corgi in him. Milo is rather laid back, preferring to sleep the day away at your feet or in a comfy bed near you. He is housebroken and crate trained and loves all people he meets. Milo does not get along with other dogs and must be the only pet in the house.

Pebble is a 6-10 month old retriever mix puppy that came from an overcrowded shelter in Georgia through The Shelter Connection’s rescue program. Sweet Pebble is affectionate and will seek petting from you, but is a bit unsure of the world around him. Pebble needs a patient family to show him that the world is not so scary. Pebble enjoys the company of other dogs and would likely benefit from having a confident, outgoing dog in the household to “show him the ropes.” With a little bit of patience and a lot of love we are positive that Pebble will become your dream dog.

(Cheers to that.) Revitalization grants are just one of the ways we help businesses on Long Island and in the Rockaways. For Moriches Field Brewing Company, a grant from our economic development program was a perfect fit to help them renovate a previously vacant property. A discount through our Vacant Space Revival Program saved them more than $4,000 on their electric bills, and rebates for upgrading to LED lighting are keeping them saving month after month.

OP-ED EXCLUSIVE

Great Neck Ex-pat’s Personal Journal Of Attack On Israel

DIANA BLETTER editors@antonmediagroup.com

am a writer but it’s hard for me to put together one coherent sentence to explain what we have just experienced in Israel. More than 1,200 men, women, children, and babies slaughtered. More than 2,000 people wounded. More than 400 people kidnapped. Missing. Hamas barbarically murdered entire families in their homes. Reportedly beheaded babies. Set people’s houses on fire and burned them alive. I have never really been scared living here, in the place I’ve called home since 1991. When I moved here from Great Neck, I was idealistic, hopeful—and naïve. I didn’t understand the mentality of the Middle East. I kept myself going by believing that when Hamas and Hezbollah said they wanted to destroy Israel, they didn’t really mean it. Like other people, I just assumed they wanted “justice” for the Palestinians. It was hard for me, a liberal thinker, to understand that when Iranian leaders said—and continue to say—they want to “wipe Israel off the map,” they mean it. Just like Hitler meant it. Israelis have always used humor to get through tough times. A few years after I arrived, I went to get my hair cut in the nearby town of Nahariya when sirens went off, telling people to go immediately into bomb shelters. “What should I do?” I asked Miro, the haircutter. “Well, if you’re going to die, at least die beautiful,” he replied. That was then. This is now, and there are no funny quips. Nothing to say. Even during the last war in Lebanon, in 2006, when my older son got wounded, and his fellow Israeli-American soldier, Michael Levin, from Pennsylvania, was killed, I wasn’t this frightened. I can’t open Facebook or Instagram without seeing the faces of people who look familiar to me. Faces of my country. Someone killed, someone missing . . . But I’d like to share some important information so that you understand this conflict. In 1947, the United Nations voted for the founding of two states: one Jewish and one Arab, on this land. Jews overwhelmingly accepted the decision, and the Arabs not only did

Yishai Wolf’s bomb shelter for his bunny rabbit. (Photos by Diane Bletter) not accept it, the surrounding countries (Lebanon, Egypt, Syria and Jordan) attacked Israel, openly declaring that they would kill all Jews living here. Moreover, these countries actively persuaded local Arabs to move away until their armies destroyed Israel. Against all odds, Israel won the War of Independence and has continued to exist. In 1967, Arab countries waged war, lost again, and only as a result of this defeat was Gaza taken by Israel. Before then, it was under Egyptian control. In 1973, the Arabs once again started war against Israel. They were more successful but they still lost in the end. The fate of Israel wasn’t clear until the very end. Then, finally, Egypt changed its attitude and made peace with Israel. Israel gave back to Egypt all the lands taken in 1967, indicating Israel will return land if real peace can be secured. Israel established peace with Jordan. In 2020, the Abraham Accords brought peace between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Morocco. Israel was on the verge of making peace with Saudi Arabia. Unfortunately, a similar apparatus does not work with Palestine. Even when the Oslo Peace Accords began in 1993, with most Israelis wishing for peace, the Palestinian leadership (and their backers) intensified their suicide bombings and killed several thousand Israelis in a few years. In fact, one of the most violent

periods of Israeli history coincided with negotiations which were supposed to give them a state. In 2000, when former President Clinton tried to negotiate a deal between Israel and the Palestinians, and once again when former Prime Minister Ehud Barak offered them almost everything they requested, including East Jerusalem and all the West Bank, they once again increased the violence until the negotiations failed. This has happened again and again. The explanation for this irrational and illogical behavior is simple. Hamas and Iran-sponsored Hezbollah are not interested in making peace with Israel despite all the benefits in education, culture, well-being, tolerance, humanity, and peace. When people say, “Free Palestine,” that means free Palestine of Israel. And the Jews. I need to stress one final point. When a friend told me she pitied the people in Gaza, I said now is not the time to pity them. It’s like pitying Germans in Nazi Germany during the Holocaust. Westerners have big hearts. We care. But when we pity the people in Gaza, Hamas uses our compassion to justify these massacres. All the humanitarian aid money—billions and billions of dollars—didn’t go for the betterment of people in Gaza. Beginning in kindergarten, internationally-funded Gaza schools teach children to hate Jews. Gaza summer camps play

games about murdering Jews. Hamas has used charitable donations for weapons. Do not be fooled into thinking that it is because of Israel that life in Gaza is miserable. Hamas leaders want people’s lives there to stay miserable to further their cause. We live 12 miles from the northern border with Lebanon. Hezbollah has stockpiled more than 150,000 rockets and missiles pointed in our direction, under the auspices of United Nations “peacekeepers.” Israelis have banded together to help one another. One of my daughters is bringing food to elderly people living alone; the other is cooking meals for evacuees. My stepdaughter, Libi, has spent the last week taking care of two little boys whose father was one of the first soldiers to be killed on Saturday, when he led a hostage rescue intervention in Kibbutz Re’im. Libi’s youngest son has just finished sewing a shirt for his stuffed animal, a bunny rabbit. He also made it a bomb shelter in a shoe box, so it can be safe when the bombings begin. Diana Bletter is a published author. Her latest work The Loving Yourself Book For Women was published on May 28, 2023. She is a 1974 alumnae of Great Neck South High School. Editor’s note: the current conflict in Israel-Gaza is a developing story, and information about the war will change.

Congressman George Santos Charged Counts include conspiracy, wire fraud, false statements, falsification of records, aggravated identity theft and credit card fraud

23-count superseding indictment has been filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, charging George Anthony Devolder Santos, better known as “George Santos,” the United States Representative for the Third District of New York, with one count of conspiracy to commit offenses against the United States, two counts of wire fraud, two counts of making materially false statements to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), two counts of falsifying records submitted to obstruct the FEC, two counts of aggravated identity theft, and one count of access device fraud, in addition to the seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds, and two counts of making materially false statements to the United States House of Representatives that were charged in the original indictment. Santos is due back in federal court in Central Islip on October 27, 2023.

Partnering In Action

Change For

Tomorrow

As alleged in the superseding indictment, Santos, who was elected to Congress last November and sworn in as the U.S. Representative for New York’s Third Congressional District on January 7, 2023, engaged in two fraudulent schemes, in addition to the multiple fraudulent schemes alleged in the original indictment. The Party Program Scheme During the 2022 election cycle, Santos was a candidate for the United States House of Representatives in New York’s Third Congressional District. Nancy Marks, who pleaded guilty on October 5, 2023 to related conduct, was the treasurer for his principal congressional campaign committee, Devolder-Santos for Congress. During this election cycle, Santos and Marks conspired with one another to devise and execute a fraudulent scheme to obtain money for the campaign by submitting materially false reports to the FEC on behalf of the campaign, in which they inflated the

� YES �::n::i�i Cenle,

campaign’s fundraising numbers for the purpose of misleading the FEC, a national party committee, and the public. Specifically, the purpose of the scheme was to ensure that Santos and his campaign qualified for a program administered by the national party committee, pursuant to which the national party committee would provide financial and logistical support to Santos’s campaign. To qualify for the program, Santos had to demonstrate, among other things, that his congressional campaign had raised at least $250,000 from third-party contributors in a single quarter. To create the public appearance that his campaign had met that financial benchmark and was otherwise financially viable, Santos and Marks agreed to falsely report to the FEC that at least 10 family members of Santos and Marks had made significant financial contributions to the campaign, when Santos and Marks both knew that these individuals had neither

made the reported contributions nor given authorization for their personal information to be included in such false public reports. In addition, understanding that the national party committee relied on FEC fundraising data to evaluate candidates’ qualification for the program, Santos and Marks agreed to falsely report to the FEC that Santos had loaned the campaign significant sums of money, when, in fact, Santos had not made the reported loans and, at the time the loans were reported, did not have the funds necessary to make such loans. These false reported loans included a $500,000 loan, when Santos had less than $8,000 in his personal and business bank accounts. Through the execution of this scheme, Santos and Marks ensured that Santos met the necessary financial benchmarks to qualify for the program administered by the national party committee. As a result of qualifying for the program, the congressional campaign received

Challenges Ahead For New Interim LIRR President Robert Free The appointment of Long Island Rail Road Senior Vice President of Operations Robert Free as interim LIRR President by MTA Chairman Janno Lieber is a refreshing selection. This was probably first run by NY Governor Kathy Hochul for her blessing. There was always no way Acting LIRR President Catherine Rinaldi could give her full attention to this critical full time position. There was never enough hours in the day while wearing two hats. She also served as Metro North Rail Road President. The same should apply to Acting LIRR President Free. He should promote his Deputy or second in command to fill his shoes and become Acting LIRR Vice President of Operations. This way Free can devote 100 percent of his time managing the nation’s largest commuter rail road. Free may need to become more familiar with planned future capital projects and programs in coming years. This should include a briefing by MTA HQ staff who prepared the MTA 2025 - 2044 Twenty Year Capital Needs Plan. It was released first week of October. Port Washington branch commuters are shocked that the price tag has grown from $40 million in 2015 to $210 million for reopening the Elmhurst station closed in 1982. Port Jefferson branch commuters are concerned about double tracking electrification project between Huntington and Port

PENNER STATION Larry Penner

Jefferson station cost growing from $2 to $3 billion. I believe that the real current cost is $3.5 billion. Free should also be briefed on the status of previous unfulfilled promised commitments by both former LIRR President Phil Eng and outgoing interim LIRR President Rinaldi. It should include the critical potential for electrification of all diesel territory branches study. This feasibility study began under Eng three years ago. To the best of my knowledge, it was never completed and made public. Free will need to meet the challenge of excessive overtime for LIRR’s share of a record MTA $1.3 billion in 2022. It continues to grow in 2023. His immediate predecessors, Rinaldi (2022 - 2023) and Philip Eng (2018 - 2022) both failed to significantly reduce excessive employee overtime. There is still the need to deal

with significant overtime abuse and out of control pensions. Employees with seniority in their last year of employment enjoy excessive overtime. This results in record pensions upon retirement the following year. MTA management needs to reduce mandatory excessive overtime and double shifts to complete capital projects. Free also needs to deal with the LIRR’s share of ongoing fare evasion. It continues to be difficult to collect fares periodically during rush hour or major sporting events when riders are standing in the aisles and vestibules. Ditto when trains are combined and cancelled. There is no room for conductors to walk thru the train and collect fares. This work on all four tunnels is less than a year away, including two that suffered significant damages from 2012 Super Storm Sandy. It will not be completed until 2027. It will require one of two tunnels damaged by Super Storm Sandy being out of service at a time for one year to support this work. The other two tunnels will need similar work. With only three of four tunnels available, there will be a reduction in Penn Station access and capacity. To preserve existing service, many LIRR rush hour trains will be canceled or combined. Until this work is over, it will be impossible to guarantee safe and reliable on time service to Penn Station for LIRR commuters.

The LIRR needs to develop a new Penn Station service plan and make it public to riders prior to Amtrak initiating this work. Free will need to develop a relationship with the Federal Transit Administration Region 2 New York office. It is critical. He should make it a priority to meet with the FTA NY Region 2 Administrator and staff. The FTA provides significant annual capital grants to the LIRR via MTA HQ. Free should quickly come up to speed with LIRR’s FTA federal fiscal year 2023 and future 2024 Program of Projects for the various FTA grant programs. Timely access to FTA formula and national competitive discretionary grant programs will continue to play a critical role in assisting the LIRR reaching a state of good repair for existing fleet, stations, signals, interlockings, track, power, yards and shops. Expanding the number of stations that are in compliance with ADA is another priority. Ensuring that maintenance programs for all assets are fully funded and completed on time to so riders get safe and reliable service. Completing capital projects on time, within budget with a minimum of justified contract change orders will help build Frees credibility with FTA , Albany, other funding agencies, Long Island commuters, Queens, Nassau and Suffolk county, state and federal elected officials, taxpayers and transit advocacy groups.

Avoiding Political Discussions The past few years have been very difficult times for people who enjoy having socially friendly discussions. Because politics has become such a divisive subject, friendly discussions have become a rarity. Friends stop talking to friends as soon as someone mentions either Trump or Biden. Relatives stopped having Sunday dinners because of some dispute over a partisan issue. All in all, politics has invaded our daily lives and not in a good way. The real question is how do we stay on good terms with our friends and relatives without the intrusion of political bickering? I have tested a few ways to deal with this crisis of social interaction. Step one to keeping a good relationship with a longtime friend? It isn’t that complicated. Just start the conversation with some distant subject that is totally

INSIDE POLITICS Jerry Kremer

divorced from party enrollment. I usually begin by asking if your friend has an opinion about the Giants, Jets, Mets or Yankees? If you get no response tell him or her some joke you heard recently. Mention Taylor Swift as she is

loved by all. If that fails take out the latest photo of a grandchild. If you are too young to have any grandchildren, then show them a family photo and keep the subject simple and friendly. If you had a recent argument with your best pal, start out the conversation by suggesting that you talk about anything other than politics. In short tell them “let’s agree to disagree.” When it comes to relatives the situation is a little dicier. Your best bet is to tell your cousin or sibling, “I think you made some good points the last time we talked.” Then immediately change the subject. The real test will come at Thanksgiving dinner. There is usually some family member who has stopped talking to another member and sits down at the table with a visible chip on their

shoulder. The angry uncle or cousin is in no mood to heal any bad feelings over your recent remark defending either Joe Biden or Donald Trump. My solution is to arrange for a family member who is in good standing, to start the dinner making a toast to the grouch praising him for his perpetual youth and his many good deeds for the family over the years. If you know his favorite scotch or wine, have a bottle handy as a way of showing respect and a little flattery. You will notice that I do not mention any females as naysayers, because generally the woman of the house is a pure diplomat. These suggestions may not work, but at least I tried to restore a little common sense to the great political divide that our country is experiencing.

SANTOS from page 4A The Credit Card Fraud Scheme In addition, between approximately December 2021 and August 2022, Santos devised and executed a fraudulent scheme to steal the personal identity and financial information of contributors to his campaign. He then charged contributors’ credit cards repeatedly, without their authorization. Because of these unauthorized transactions, funds were transferred to Santos’s campaign, to the campaigns of other candidates for elected office, and to his own bank account. To conceal the true source of these funds and to circumvent campaign contribution limits, Santos falsely represented that some of the campaign contributions were made by other persons, such as his relatives or associates, rather than the true cardholders. Santos did not have authorization to use their names in this way.

Santos used the credit card information to make numerous contributions to his campaign and affiliated political committees in amounts exceeding applicable contribution limits, without the Contributor’s knowledge or authorization. To mask the true source of these contributions and thereby circumvent the applicable campaign contribution limits, Santos falsely identified the contributor for one of the charges as one of his relatives. In the following months, Santos repeatedly charged the Contributor’s credit card without the Contributor’s knowledge or authorization, attempting to make at least $44,800 in charges and repeatedly concealing the true source of funds by falsely listing the source of funds as Santos himself, his relatives and other contributors. On one occasion, Santos charged $12,000 to the Contributor’s credit card, ultimately transferring the vast majority of that money into his personal bank account.

For example, in December 2021, one contributor (the “Contributor”) texted Santos and others to make a contribution to his campaign, providing billing information for two credit cards. In the days after he received the billing information,

Doing the With Biographical Lucinda Deep Dive Williams DAVE GIL de RUBIO dgilderubio@antonmediagroup.com

ucinda Williams is a survivor. What else do you call someone who survives a debilitating stroke at the age of 67 and rather than give in, she rallied back following a week spent in intensive care in late November 2020 after a blood clot on the right side of her brain impaired the left side of her body’s motor skills? From here, the Louisiana native endured long rehabilitative stints that forced her to relearn many basic activities like walking. Three years later, Williams is out touring behind Stories From a Rock and Roll Heart, in addition to promoting her warts-and-all memoir Don’t Tell Anybody the Secrets I Told You.

“It wasn’t one of those things where I said, ‘Hey, I’m going to write a book and I’m going to start today,’” she explained. “It sort of just happened over time. The book is just an extension of what I never had enough time to do on stage to go into detail about things. Or maybe I didn’t want to go into detail at that time or in that position, being on stage in front of an audience. When we did the Car Wheels [On a Gravel Road] tour, I went into detail more. And it really just kind of took off.” Tackling this kind of project took five or six years and while it was started pre-stroke, the singer-songwriter carried the self-imposed pressure of living up to her late father, renowned poet Miller Williams, to whom the book is dedicated. Williams’ self-admitted perfectionist tendencies dogged her, particularly given the different writing muscles she had to engage in while trying to write a book. “I wasn’t used to the looming deadlines that kept rearing its ugly head,” she said. “I kept wanting to fix and change things. I would have a piece that was written. [My husband] Tom [Overby] would type it out and we would send it to the editor and each time they would send the whole draft of the book with that in it. And I would read through the whole thing and I’d want to edit again. Tom is saying, ‘The book is done Lu. You can’t keep changing things. It’s coming out. It’s done.’ And I’m going, ‘No, no. I’ve got to change this part. It doesn’t sound right. It’s going to hurt someone’s feelings.’ I had a really hard time with that sort of thing.” Not unlike her songs, Don’t Tell Anybody is poignant, straightforward and honest. Williams’ journey to the commercial success she achieved as a late bloomer “…well into her forties” is well chronicled from a childhood bouncing around with her professor father following her parents’ divorce

LONG ISLAND WEEKLY

and living in 12 cities and two countries (Chile and Mexico) before she was 18 to recording her 1979 debut Ramblin’ On My Mind for storied imprint Folkways Records. Under the best of circumstances, familial dynamics are complicated and so it went for Williams, who unflinchingly writes about grappling with her mother’s mental illness and navigating the relationship with her stepmother, one of her father’s students young enough to be a sibling. But through it all, the reader gets a full taste of Williams’ journey that includes family lore (father Miller crossing paths with Hank Williams, Sr.) and navigating the stop and starts of the music industry that included her being mischaracterized as difficult in the wake of her critical and commercial success with 1998’s Car Wheels On a Gravel Road. But through it all, Williams confesses the process proved to be healing. “It was all sort of therapeutic,” she admitted. “Writing the book made me miss my mother and my father a lot. As I was going through it, I realized they were really great people.” And in the middle of all this, Williams stopped long enough to cut Stories From a Rock and Roll Heart, a tight 10-song collection that features cameos from the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Patti Scialfa, Margo Price and Tommy Stinson. And while the stroke robbed Williams of the ability to play guitar, a creative relationship dating back to when she was 12 and was totally gob-smacked by Highway 61 Revisited, she figured out a workaround with the help of Overby and guitar-playing road manager Travis Stephens. Lucinda Williams will be appearing on October 27 and October 28 at the Beacon Theatre, 74th Street & Broadway, NYC. Visit www.beacontheatre.com or call 866-858-0008 for more information.

Authentic Italian Cuisine With White-glove Service Photo by Il Mulino

Gold Coast’s Il Mulino unveils transformation By Anton Media Staff After more than two decades of delighting patrons with its exquisite Italian cuisine and unparalleled hospitality, Il Mulino New York’s esteemed Long Island restaurant has embarked on an exciting journey of transformation. Undergoing an extensive remodeling, the restaurant now emerges with a fresh and contemporary design, ready to captivate guests in a whole new way. While the ambiance may have taken on a more modern allure, the unwavering commitment to delivering top-notch cuisine and impeccable service remains.

n Sept. 14, Il Mulino of Long Island unveiled its stunning dining room transformation. Il Mulino New York opened in 1981 in Greenwich Village. The restaurant quickly gained recognition for its authentic Italian cuisine and impeccable service. During the 1980s, Il Mulino became a hotspot for celebrities, food

enthusiasts and New York’s elite society members. Its reputation for serving classic Italian dishes prepared with the finest ingredients made it a go-to destination for both locals and tourists. Notable celebrities such as Frank Sinatra and Robert De Niro were known to frequent the restaurant during this time. Il Mulino New York

expanded its presence by opening several new locations, in addition to licensing other concepts like Il Mulino Prime and Il Mulino Trattoria. These expansions helped the restaurant establish itself as an iconic Italian dining brand in the restaurant industry. Il Mulino New York celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2011 and remained a top choice for Italian dining. The brand continued to thrive and innovate, introducing new menu items while staying true to its traditional roots. Il Mulino New York also launched its own line of consumer products including Il Mulino sauces. The line includes three sauces (marinara,

vodka cream and tomato basil) which were created by Il Mulino New York’s Executive Chef Michele Mazza. Il Mulino New York’s marinara sauce blends San Marzano tomatoes, sea salt and garlic. The pomodoro sauce is the perfect option for those looking for more of a lighter, sweeter blend, while the vodka cream brings a decadent and luxurious touch to any dish. With its commitment to providing an authentic dining experience, it remains a beloved fixture in the culinary landscape of the United States. Il Mulino’s enduring success can be attributed to its dedication to delivering exceptional Italian food and hospitality, making it a cherished destination for both discerning locals and visitors seeking a taste of classic Italian flavors in a luxurious setting.

1 black eggplant (needs to be hard, as this means it is fresh) Sea salt Extra virgin olive oil Ground pepper ½ tsp. crushed garlic Two cups of San Marzano tomatoes 6 basil leaves 3 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese

Eggplant Parmigiana Photo by Il Mulino

Crushed black pepper Shredded mozzarella cheese, optional

Method Peel the eggplant’s skin and then cut the eggplant in eight slices. Slices should be around ¾-inch thick each. Put sea salt on both sides and place in a strainer. Leave for 25 minutes. The purpose of the salt is to take away the bitterness from the eggplant. After 25 minutes, rinse the salt off the eggplant on both sides with cold water. Dry the eggplant with a dry towel on both sides. It needs to be very dry. Turn the barbecue grill on medium high and let it warm up for at least four minutes. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil onto both sides of the eggplant along with sea salt and ground pepper and place in a dish. When the grill temperature is ready, grill the eggplant for two minutes on each side. Place the eggplant on a dish and set to the side so that it may cool off. In a saucepan, brown 1/2 tsp. of crushed garlic in 2 tsp. of extra virgin olive oil. Once the garlic has browned, mix in two cups of San Marzano tomatoes (or Il Mulino Marinara Sauce), then chop three leaves of basil and add it to the sauce. Ensure the sauce is being cooked in low heat. After 10 minutes, turn off the heat. In a glass baking dish, apply a layer of sauce at the bottom and then place two slices of eggplant on top of the sauce.

Executive Chef Michele Mazza

Add two Tbsp. of sauce over the two slices of eggplant and the add one Tbsp. of Parmesan cheese over the slices. Top with chopped basil. Repeat this step until you have three layers on each eggplant parmigiana. Pour the remaining sauce on top of the two eggplants. Make sure that both eggplants are fully covered in sauce. Lastly, drizzle olive oil and crushed black pepper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place glass baking dish with eggplant in the oven for 15 minutes. After cooking, let the eggplant settle for 15 to 20 minutes. Chef’s note: This recipe for a classic Neapolitan Eggplant Parmigiana serves two. You may also add mozzarella cheese in between each layer. —Chef Michele Mazza, executive chef at Il Mulino New York

It Ain’t Just The Pizza Newest pizzeria built on history

The Angry Attilio

By Christy Hinko The walls of Pacific Street Pizza are lined with the family’s history, from where the late Attilio Renny grew up and of his famed Attilio’s Pizzeria in Roslyn Heights for more than 30 years.

“I

remember the day my father opened Attilio’s; it was 1992,” Joe Renny recalls. “My brother and I worked there for him over many summers.” Joe and his brother, Richie, owners of the newest pizzeria addition to the North Shore, grew up in Herricks. They are no strangers to the business, growing up around food their whole lives. “We wanted a place here that honored our father and what he did in the business for more than 28 years, what he did in Roslyn Heights and tying it all into his heritage,” Renny says. Attilio “Tim” learned to cook at his family’s restaurant off Pacific Street in Brooklyn as a kid. He was third-generation American. “COVID was not a help to our business model over there at Attilio’s; since we were already a takeout and delivery establishment, we suddenly gained a tremendous amount of competition with every other food place,” Renny adds. Attilio’s closed on Christmas more than two years ago. “Attilio’s Salad on the menu is a nod to the old restaurant; we tried to get the recipe and the dressing as close to the original as possible,” Renny says. Attilio’s Salad is chopped iceberg lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onion, kalamata olive, fresh mozzarella, roasted peppers, marinated mushroom, artichoke hearts and Attilio’s balsamic dressing. “Our Angry Attilio Pizza is a shout-out to my father, not that he was angry ever, just loud,” Renny says fondly.

GOLD COAST MAGAZINE

The Angry Attilio is a margherita pie with pepperoni, spicy soppressata and Mike’s brand of hot honey. “Starting something from scratch is not easy, especially a pizzeria on Long Island,” Renny says. “Hopefully the connection to Attilio’s helps carry us for a long time.” Pacific Street Pizza was formed with the help and support from nearly all of Attilio’s former employees. “We have many generations of Attilio’s employees too, fathers, uncles, nephews, sons.” Tim Attilio’s brother, Gerard Renny, has owned many places over the years. He currently owns Ethyl’s Alcohol & Food, a funky 1970s-themed haunt with bar bites and specialty cocktails, plus go-go dancers and DJs on the Upper East Side in Manhattan. Check out Gerard’s look back into the history of times before the Korean War in Brooklyn in his 1999 book, The Men of the Pacific Street Social Club Cook: Home-Style Recipes and Unforgettable Stories, which is available at Pacific Street Pizza. “We got a lot of useful advice from our uncle before opening Pacific Street Pizza,” Renny says. “We picked everyone’s brains for everything they are good at when we began planning this place.” The Pacific Street Pizza dough recipe, a three-grain blend, is specially crafted with the help of a close family friend of the Rennys who is the dean of students at the Culinary Institute of America (CIA) in Hyde Park. “Everyone has pizza ovens in their yards now,” Joe Renny says. “The

dough is the hardest part; we ferment ours here for a couple of days.” The home pizza kits are extremely popular, made in part by the COVID pandemic lockdown. Some of the popular items on the menu are their Classic Brooklyn and their Burrata Pizza. The signature Burrata slice is the inside of Burrata cheese, the stracciatella portion, scooped onto the pie and then accented with a little bit of olive oil, fresh basil and some pecorino to give it a little tang. If you are not in the mood for pizza, check out one of the classic entrée dishes like the chicken francese, made to perfection in a rich, creamy wine sauce. Pacific Street Pizza is open every day from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. There is plenty of parking in the lot directly behind the pizzeria, located at 38 Glen Cove Rd., in Greenvale, just north of Northern Boulevard. Visit www.pacificstreetpizza.com or call 516-231-1950 to place an order or for more information.

Fall Fashion Trends By Olivia Rainson Looking to update your fall wardrobe? New predicted fashion trends showcased in several designer shows are gaining relevance for the autumnal season. From Prada to Saint Laurent, models have been displaying the most influential fall fashion pieces for the 2023 season.

his fall is centered around the street style versions of the best of the runway. Incorporating several fabrics and neutral palettes, this year’s fashion is all about playing with texture and monochromatic color. It’s all about keeping it simple and clean while still including touches of glamor. Dressing up or dressing down, these pieces are some of the essentials for your fall wardrobe.

Chunky Earrings Statement earrings have made a comeback. This fall, chunky earrings with charms, rhinestones or pearls dress up any simple outfit. Fun earrings paired with a cozy turtleneck allows you to skip the necklace. Astor 6-in-1 Charm Earring, Julie Vos $155

Leather Leather, especially oversized leather jackets, is making a comeback this fall. Although leather has always been a popular choice for cooler weather, expect bolder outfits and unique styling. AE Vegan Leather Boyfriend Blazer, American Eagle $79.95

Sheer Fabrics Sheer fabrics are the perfect layering technique for unpredictable fall weather. A mesh shirt with a tank underneath and an oversized jacket is one way to wear the fabric, as well as other clothing like dresses and skirts. Layering is an essential part of transitional weather, and using mesh or sheer fabric is a trendy way to do it. Before Sunset Mesh Long Sleeve, Free People $40

Button-Up Tops Button-up tops and other tailored clothing have become less formal and more prevalent in wardrobes across all seasons. Paired with short heels and a pair of baggy jeans makes the perfect casual street style. Button-ups with miniskirts, tights and tall boots are perfect for fall days—while still dressing appropriately for the season. 100 percent Organic Cotton Big Shirt, Gap $59.95

Ode to Vivienne Westwood Vivienne Westwood, a fem-grunge fashion icon who passed away in December of 2022, is being remembered in the 2023 fall season. Her bold fashion and dark romantic looks are a staple of the season. Tall platform black boots are a perfect ode to Westwood’s feminine grunge style. Steve Madden Kizam Boot, DSW $89.99

Grunge Glam Dark eyes are the trendiest (and easiest) fall makeup look. Using dark eyeshadow as eyeliner on both the waterline and lids creates a smooth, smoky look—and is easier than attempting that perfect line with liquid eyeliner. Urban Decay Naked2 Basics Eyeshadow Palette, Sephora $33

Slouchy Bags Large tote bags have been a practical and classic trend for years. This fall, slouchy tote bags will add a bit of flare to every outfit. These large bags are perfect to transport your laptop, current read and an extra sweater during the busy months ahead. Slouchy Oversized Leather Tote, Anthropologie $198

Designer Heather Menzies Wows Custom clothing with a vintage feel By Amanda Olsen Heather Menzies knew she wanted to make clothes from the age of eight, when she began sewing in her Midwestern 4H club, and her determination never wavered. After graduating from the clothing and textiles program at Michigan State University, she packed up everything she owned and came to New York. She worked as a pattern and sample maker for various New York companies. Among them was Ellen Tracy, where she had celebrity clients and saw her designs in runway shows. After taking some time to have children, she began working with dressmakers in Great Neck and Port Washington. She has been working on her own since January, out of her beautiful 1930s home studio.

’ve met so many women in the community. It’s always something different, it’s creative, and I feel like I’m helping women to feel beautiful. Even if it’s just tailoring, I’m helping them to feel good about themselves. And I love the independence,” Menzies says. Menzies’ home-based atelier carries the same calm, intentional atmosphere as her bespoke designs. She is

a master at creating custom clothing with a romantic, delicate touch. Her designs often evoke a vintage aesthetic, with muted color palettes and feminine details like lace and flowers. She is also a fan of raw edges and denim. She loves upcycling and often breathes new life into old pieces, whether that means reworking an existing garment or using it to make something new. Most of the projects she takes on are for events like weddings, proms, and sweet sixteens. Because each piece goes through several steps, the best designs take several months to complete. Clients first discuss their vision with Menzies to see if it is something she can take on. They talk about the date of their event and what they would like the final

look to be. Because her aesthetic is feminine, soft and sometimes whimsical, she isn’t a good fit for edgier designs. Once they have a design in mind, Menzies will sketch. She then creates a mock-up in muslin and does the initial fitting, which allows for a yardage estimate. Then there is usually a day of fabric shopping in the city, to make sure they get the exact fabrics to meet the client’s needs. There may be several more fittings to make sure everything is just right

before the dress is completed. Menzies approaches her designs from an artist’s point of view. “I also think as an artist, when you’re plugged in, that it comes through. So when you’re making clothes that aren’t true to yourself, it shows. Your heart has to be in it.” Part of making great clothes is producing something the client wants to wear. This kind of custom design work is collaborative, and in the end, it’s vital that the client loves the result, so they feel confident and comfortable

wearing it. “Whether it’s tailoring or a custom dress, or an upcycling piece, whatever I’m working on, the bottom line is, if you’re not comfortable with what you’re wearing, you’re not going to look good. It doesn’t matter how expensive (it is) or how beautiful it looks on the dress form. If you’re not comfortable, you will not look good,” Menzies says. A collaboration with her former employer, Nancy Sinoway in Port Washington, on a line of bridal after-party dresses,

is underway. These ‘second looks’ are “cute, sexy ivory or white little party dresses” for brides to wear to their reception. “They’re very, very flirty, fun, and lighthearted,” Menzies says. “Christian Dior used to call himself a dressmaker, which I think is so cool.” Menzies says, when asked about her inspirations. “And he started his business when he was 40 years old, which I also think is very cool.” For those seeking special looks that stand out and embrace a soft, vintage feel, Menzies’ custom creations and the care she takes with each client set her apart. If interested, she can be reached at 516-366-0969 or via email HLMenzies@gmail. com, Instagram or Facebook: HeatherMenzies.NY.

estselling author Allison Pataki has crafted an intimate portrait of the larger-than-life woman, a North Shore businesswoman, philanthropist and socialite, Marjorie Merriwether Post, in her newest novel, The Magnificent Lives of Marjorie Post. Pataki’s story recreates the life of Marjorie, falling in love with her own voice and embracing her own power while simultaneously shaping history in the process. In an exclusive chat with the brilliant storyteller, Pataki shares with Gold Coast Magazine some of her passion for writing and the influence of Marjorie’s life on her own. “A reader of historical fiction is coming to the book and the story for a variety of reasons,” Pataki says. “Two things that they want to ensure happens through the experience, one that they are entertained and two that they are educated; I want to hit both of those sweet spots.” The Magnificent Lives of Marjorie

Allison Pataki

Pataki’s ninth book

Post is Pataki’s ninth book, which debuted in February. “I have written about women who have been dead for centuries, ranging in contrast from the French Revolutionary War versus Marjorie’s life within this century.” Pataki had far more information to work with when writing Marjorie, naturally because of the proximity to modern times. “Her homes are still standing, are still occupied. Her life is well-preserved; her

story is well-known. With that came a lot of pressure to get it right.” It is important to get certain facts right when writing historical fiction. The reader already knows the mainstream facts. “I really like Marjorie as a woman, as a character; I felt very inspired by her,” Pataki shares. “I wanted it to pass with a certain level of credibility. I knew her family members will be reading this book, it had to pass muster.” Marjorie Post is biographical historical fiction, following Marjorie through her life from the time she was four years old, right to the end of her life. “This is the book that sticks closest to the history because in the case of Marjorie, the raw material of her history is just that good. I would have been crazy not to lean on it.” It took Pataki six years to complete this novel. “It was a lot to cover and a challenge, but in many ways, it has been a life-changing experience for me to

learn about her, to write it and connect with readers in the way that I have been able to.” Marjorie Post was inspired by a few simple rules from growing up in the modest farmlands of Battle Creek, Michigan: always think for yourself, never take success for granted and work hard—even when deemed American royalty, even while covered in imperial diamonds. “The thing that blew my mind about Marjorie was her Birds Eye Foods acquisition,” Pataki says. “Her keen insights into the fact that the American family was ready for frozen and refrigerated foods.” Birds Eye Foods, originally named “Birdseye Seafood” had been established by Clarence Birdseye in 1922 to market frozen fish. Marjorie acquired the company in 1929. “Businessmen were laughing her out of the boardroom saying, ‘People don’t want refrigerated food; stores don’t want to buy refrigerators; restaurants do not want to serve it,’ and here is Marjorie saying that she is thinking the American woman is ready to have convenient, healthy, affordable options to feed her family.” Most Americans enjoy the modern conveniences of Marjorie’s instincts; our diets and lifestyles are forever changed. “I have a fridge; you have a fridge. She impacted our lives in a truly fundamental way,” Pataki says. “I do not think many Americans know that about her legacy.” It was Marjorie’s life-force, advocacy, passion and adventurous spirit that led to her stunning legacy. “The biggest challenge of writing this story was that I knew the beginning and the end; I had a lot of ground

to cover in between,” Pataki says. “I wanted to make sure that even though the facts are interesting, it is not a book of historical bullet point after bullet point.” Marjorie Post reads like an immersive, sweeping story of her life that the reader is happy to go on an inspiring journey. “This is the first time I have ever written about a woman who is divorced,” Pataki says. “I had to work at bringing a reader along and make them fall in and out of love four times, to make each love story fresh and its own, compelling, and poignant. I needed the reader to be willing to feel and go through the heartbreak with her.” Pataki is the daughter of George and Libby Pataki. “They have always been my biggest supporters and my biggest fans,” Pataki says. George is a former governor of New York and a 2016 presidential candidate. People outside of New York typically do not recognize her for that. “It is funny because people will often go up to him and ask about me now,” Pataki says. “He is always helping to push my product.” Pataki is The New York Times bestselling author of The Traitor’s Wife, The Accidental Empress, Sisi: Empress On Her Own, Where the Light Falls and the memoir, Beauty in the Broken Places. “I have a new novel coming out in just a few months,” Pataki shares. “I am working very hard to finish it.” Her work has been translated into more than a dozen languages, and has been featured on The TODAY Show, The New York Times, The Huffington Post, USA Today, FOX News and more.

Temple Judea Welcomes New Executive Director By Christy Hinko The board of trustees at Temple Judea in Manhasset has announced the appointment of Steven Goldberg to serve as its executive director. He replaces Maxine Peresechensky, who has retired after more than 16 years of devoted service to the temple.

“T

he temple has run for 60 years prior to me,” Goldberg says. “One of my goals is to increase membership and to continue programming and services in the right direction.” Goldberg comes to his new position after a 33-year career in education. He has a significant background in both guidance as well as school administration, having served as principal of elementary and secondary schools for several years. His extensive education includes a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology from SUNY Albany, and a Master of Science degree in school counseling from Long Island University. He also earned a professional diploma in school district administration from Long Island University. He worked first as a guidance counselor, moving then to the position of assistant principal and then to principal. “It’s a new endeavor for me; I am excited about the role,” Goldberg says. “I am looking toward maintaining an environment that is fun,

yet spiritual.” Goldberg’s experiences in education and guidance will serve him well in all aspects of the temple’s programs. He will be involved with navigating the many and varied programs of Temple Judea. He will work closely with the school director in planning and suggesting programs for the students who range in age from five years old and up to high school level. “Like every religion, we have a relatively older group of members,” Goldberg says. “We are continuously trying to reach out to the younger generation, to younger families.” Some of his responsibilities will include working closely with the board to implement new ideas for the synagogue and its members. Goldberg will be responsible for the day-today operations at the synagogue such as budget, calendar coordination, security, meeting and greeting new congregants. He has an active interest in the Holocaust and will be pleased to work with the Director of the Irving Roth Holocaust Resource Center, an educational facility located within the Temple Judea

campus. “We try to give back to the community as well as taking care of those who are in our immediate temple family,” Goldberg says. The temple regularly holds clothing and food drives throughout the year, in addition to collaborating with regional schools, organizations and other houses of worship. “The rabbi is very talented,” Goldberg says. “He has done a great job coming up with new ideas to make services more exciting for everyone.” Goldberg is eager to begin this new endeavor and to work closely with Rabbi Todd Chizner and Cantor Deborah Jacobson. Some of the responsibilities he will tackle will include supporting the rabbi and cantor in their daily work and promoting specific programs the clergy offers. In the short time Goldberg has served as executive director, he has already established himself as a friendly and active listener, and an advocate of inclusion of the members in

The COVID pandemic has changed many people’s relationship with religion. “We are still trying to get people back in person,” Goldberg says. “We do have Zoom and live streaming services and even though we are keeping those options, we are trying to do more innovative and exciting things to bring people back into the building.” New members are welcome to join Temple Judea, a Reform synagogue. For information about the temple’s many projects and activities, as well as worship schedules, call Goldberg at 516-621-8049. Temple Judea is located at 333 Searingtown Rd. in Manhasset.

LIMTF provides students with the opportunity to work with guest artists, perform a fully staged musical with a professional orchestra, and receive training from industry professionals. Gold Coast Magazine had a chance to speak with Kantor leading up to his master class with LIMTF at Adelphi. He shared so much of his acting experiences growing up in Great Neck that laid the foundation for his career. In time, money or talent, anybody who was anybody, dating back to the 1800s, historically has either been from Great Neck or gravitated toward the peninsula because of its proximity to the city, resources, transportation and simply to be in the presence of other creatives and successful people. “I am proud of that,” Kantor says. “Sarah Hughes and Nikki Blonsky are contemporaries of mine that come to mind. Sarah is a year or two older; Nikki is a year younger. I performed with Nikki in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in Great Neck. We sang with the late and great Roger Ames and his chorus.” Ames, 77, a world-class composer who shared his knowledge with Great Neck North High School students for nearly three decades, died in January of 2022 following a two-year battle with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). “Nikki Blonsky and I shared a singing teacher and mentor at Great Neck North Middle School, the late Dan Tomaselli,” Kantor says. He graduated from Great Neck North High School in 2004. One of the most influential people of Kantor’s formative years was his high school English teacher, Jeffrey Gilden, who led a program called Stages at Great Neck North High School, a collaborative program with the senior students. Students would write a full-length musical from scratch and then perform it at the end of the year. “Gilden wrote my college recommendation letter to Northwestern University, where I met Michael Greif who directed Rent on Broadway, who gave me my role as Mark.” Kantor is honored to be a part of the Rent legacy. “I was a huge fan growing up as a teenager on Long Island; I would take the Long Island Rail Road into the city and get $20 rush tickets to see the show,” Kantor says. “My own identity is deeply connected to this show and for many people it was

La Piccola Liguria

almost like a religion; I am Jewish, and I am Rentish.” He is equally proud of the work that he has done since Rent also. “There’s not a single show that I have done on Broadway that I have ever felt like, ‘Oh, that one was a dud,’” Kantor says. “I got to do shows that I really care about, like Next To Normal and Fiddler On The Roof. Fiddler was the first show that I ever performed at Great Neck North Middle School in sixth grade with Tomaselli. I was Mendel, the rabbi’s son. On Broadway I played Motel Kamzoil the tailor. In eighth grade at Great Neck Community Theatre I played the role from Fiddler as Tevye the Dairyman. As an Ashkenazi Jew from Great Neck, that show is also like a religion.” Kantor is excited about the opportunity to work with LIMTF. “I am engaged as a guest artist to lead a master class for the young people involved in the summer program at Adelphi University,” Kantor says. “I will be teaching something that I love, the skill of acting to song.” Kantor recently completed a critically acclaimed run of The Inheritance at The Geffen Playhouse, where he was nominated for an LA Drama Critics Circle Award. “The goal of so much of the work that we do as artists is about self-excavation,” Kantor says. “I would love for the LIMTF students to be able to access parts of themselves that they haven’t accessed before, to have a deeper sense of self coming out of this, a deeper appreciation of their own artistry and of others' [artistry].” Kantor won an Emmy and a Grammy for his performance in the Tony Award-winning Broadway production of The Band’s Visit, as well as an Outer Critics Circle honor for his performance in Darling Grenadine at Roundabout Theatre Company. Off Broadway, he starred in The Last Five Years at Second Stage Theater and Avenue Q at New World Stages. Regional highlights include Duncan Sheik and Kyle Jarrow’s Noir at the Alley, as well as Barry Levinson and Sheryl Crow’s Diner at Signature Theatre. On TV he was in Billions on Showtime as Pununzio, and The Good Wife on CBS as Ezra. Kantor is a graduate of the British American Dramatic Academy. He has been a coach for The National High School Music Theatre Awards (“The Jimmy Awards”) since 2014. Follow Kantor on Instagram (@AdamJKantor).

Go For A Hike Local hiking spots to check out

By Jennifer Corr

s the air gets cooler, hiking is the perfect activity to get you out of the house and into nature. According to the National Park Service, hiking promotes exercise, mental health and relational health. While Long Island is not exactly known for its hiking, compared to its wineries and beaches, there are many beautiful parks, preserves and trails that can take you out of the suburbs and into nature. But before getting on the trail, it’s important to know how to prepare to ensure you have the smoothest, safest hike. The Kampgrounds of America (KOA) provides a list of hiking tips, including making sure that you pack navigation tools, like a map or compass. Wear breathable pants and long socks, as well as adequate hiking

shoes. Make sure to wear light colors so that you can see ticks and other bugs. Eat well and drink enough water. Pack light. Plan ahead for your hike and consider your fitness level, how long you want to spend on the hike, what terrain you are dealing with and how many miles you want to walk. Make sure to wear bug spray and always tell someone about your hiking plans. It’s always a good idea to bring a companion, as well as a charged cell phone. Always stay on the trail. Now that you are ready for your hike, here are some local trails to check out:

Managing A Flooded Basement Steps to take for a swift recovery

11. Monitor for Mold and Mildew

ANTON MEDIA GROUP STAFF

Even with diligent cleanup efforts, mold and mildew can still develop. Monitor your basement for signs of these issues, such as a musty odor or visible growth. If you detect mold, address it promptly to prevent health hazards and further damage.

editors@antonmediagroup.com

flooded basement can be a homeowner’s worst nightmare, causing significant damage and disruption. Whether the flooding is due to heavy rain, a burst pipe, or some other water-related issue, taking prompt and effective action is crucial. In this guide, we will discuss a step-by-step approach to manage a flooded basement, minimizing damage and expediting the recovery process.

1. Prioritize Safety

Safety should be your first concern. Before entering the flooded basement, ensure that it’s safe to do so. Turn off the electricity to the area from the main circuit breaker to avoid the risk of electrocution. If you’re unsure about the safety of your basement, it’s best to wait for professional help.

2. Identify the Source of the Flooding

Determining the cause of the flooding is crucial. If it’s due to a burst pipe or plumbing issue, turn off the main water supply to stop the influx of water. In the case of heavy rain or natural flooding, you may not have control over the source, but understanding it will help when it’s time to address the issue.

3. Remove Standing Water

Once the area is safe to enter, begin removing standing water. Depending on the depth of the flooding, you can use a wet/dry vacuum, a sump pump, or even buckets and mops. Be sure to work carefully to avoid injuring yourself.

4. Salvage Belongings

While dealing with the water, prioritize the salvage of valuable items stored in the

basement. Be mindful of safety, but try to rescue important documents, electronics, and sentimental possessions. Items that have been submerged should be cleaned and dried as soon as possible to prevent further damage.

5. Promote Ventilation

Basements are often poorly ventilated, which can lead to mold growth. Promote ventilation by opening windows, using fans, and running dehumidifiers. Adequate airflow is crucial to preventing mold and mildew in the aftermath of a flood.

6. Assess and Remove Damaged Materials

Inspect the structural integrity of the basement and assess any damage. Remove damaged materials such as soaked drywall, insulation, or carpeting. Be cautious, as water-damaged structures may be unstable. If you’re unsure, it’s best to consult with a professional.

7. Clean and Disinfect

Thoroughly clean and disinfect the basement to prevent mold growth and bacterial contamination. Use a mixture of water and bleach (one part bleach to nine parts water) to disinfect surfaces. Wear protective gear

like gloves and a mask when working with cleaning agents.

8. Inspect Electrical Systems

Before restoring power to the basement, have an electrician inspect the electrical systems for any damage or potential hazards. Electrical components can be seriously compromised in a flood, and any issues should be addressed by a professional.

9. Check for Water Damage Insurance Coverage

Review your homeowner’s insurance policy to determine whether it covers water damage and flood-related issues. If your basement flooding was due to a burst pipe or another covered event, you may be eligible for a claim. Contact your insurance company as soon as possible to initiate the claims process.

10. Invest in Waterproofing and Prevention

Once your basement is restored, consider investing in waterproofing measures to prevent future flooding. These may include installing a sump pump, improving drainage around your home, and sealing any cracks or vulnerabilities in your basement walls.

Prepare for future flooding by maintaining a basement emergency kit. This kit should include items like a wet/dry vacuum, sump pump, fans, dehumidifiers, and cleaning supplies. Having these items readily available can help you respond quickly in the event of another flood.

13. Consider Professional Assistance

While many homeowners can manage a flooded basement themselves, there are situations where professional assistance is essential. If the flooding is extensive, structural damage is severe, or you’re dealing with sewage-contaminated water, it’s best to consult with experts in water damage restoration and basement repair. Managing a flooded basement can be a daunting and stressful experience, but taking the right steps can make the recovery process smoother and more effective. Prioritizing safety, identifying the source of the flooding, and taking prompt action to remove water are crucial initial steps. Salvaging belongings, promoting ventilation, and disinfecting the area help mitigate damage and health risks. Afterward, it’s important to assess and repair any structural damage and consider preventive measures to reduce the risk of future flooding. Remember, while some tasks can be handled by homeowners, it’s always wise to consult with professionals in severe cases to ensure a thorough and safe recovery process.

DEC Hosts Fall Fishing Festival Oct. 21 At Hempstead Lake State Park Free fishing, rods and bait, live animal show, contests, and activities for children at annual Long Island event Fishing Festival really ushers in the season and hooks children and families on the joys of fishing. We hope they will also explore the recently completed multi-year project that includes new trails that are Americans with Disabilities Actcompliant, an observation deck and other vital infrastructure improvements to make the park safer and more resilient to future storms.” Festival activities include fishing with free loaner rods and bait, fishing instruction, casting instruction, and fish-cleaning services. In addition to fishing opportunities, the festival features

a children’s casting for pumpkins contest, live animal show, magician, pumpkin decorating, fish printing, and a children’s slide, in addition to DEC and State Parks displays. The fishing license requirement for all anglers over the age of 16 is suspended for this festival, and admission and parking are free. The children’s casting for pumpkins contest will be held for as long as pumpkins last, during which kids can “catch” a pumpkin and “hook” a prize. Casting contest prizes are provided by I FISH NY and State Parks. Prior to the festival, State Parks will stock South and McDonald ponds in

Hempstead Lake State Park with brook and rainbow trout. DEC stocks brown trout in several other waterbodies in Nassau and Suffolk counties, including Upper Twin Pond, Oyster Bay Mill Pond, Massapequa Reservoir, and 12 additional Suffolk County lakes. These stockings will occur by Oct. 27, and provide excellent prospects for fall fishing. A second DEC stocking will occur in early November. For more information about the festival, call DEC’s I FISH NY Program at (631) 4440283 or Hempstead Lake State Park (516) 7661029 for event status. There is no rain date for this event.

You’ll create alignment within yourself and amongst your team by defining what success looks like and making sure everyone is on the same page. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Modesty serves you especially well when you’re around a hype-person who can sing your praises so you don’t have to. This won’t always be the case this week. When you’re on your own, it’s awkward to flex, but do it anyway because the scene will need what you’re good at. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). With long-term projects, it can be hard to see the progress as you go, and easy to lose heart. This is why it’s so important to take that “before” data. As daunting as things seem at the beginning, you’ll be that much prouder of yourself when you get to the end. The “before” shot is a gift to future you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). While some people’s lives play out like movies with complicated plots, yours will flicker with style and humor. Because you’re sophisticated, you don’t need dramatic things to happen to be captivated by people and life. The week holds beauty and nuanced interactions. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Jet aircraft can fly over thunderstorms if they can get to an altitude above the cloud tops. This week, you’ll be like a plane that avoids turbulence by rising above it. You’ll lighten your energy, letting go so you can freely soar over a weather system where there’s no turmoil to disturb you or cloud your mind. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You approached an endeavor with a carefree ease once. You ambled. You detoured. You paused in wonder or whim. Then one day, everything came together in a moment of clarity and purpose. Now there’s a point to this. You need to get there quickly and directly. An innate sense kicks in to guide you this week.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS:

Your cosmic birthday gift is a talent for prediction. When you ask who will benefit from this, you’ll clearly see the true answer and aim your efforts accordingly. Your accurate first impressions of endeavors, people and environments will show you where to place your expectations so you never have to waste your time. Creative work, innovation and leadership are areas in which you’ll excel. You’re unblocked and ready to celebrate the changes in your life that inevitably come from bravely following your bliss.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You want many things, some practical and affordable, some frivolous and aspirational. Because you’re wise to the importance of fun, you’ll start with the frivolous. Because practicalities always seem to get handled in one way or another -- but if you start with them, they take up so much energy -- you may never make it to the fun side.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The reason you’ll be so effective this week is that you avoid assumptions. The situation is complex and unpredictable. Without sufficient evidence or information, mistakes will happen. Until you’re sure, the best move is no move. Observe, ask questions and marinate in scene before deciding the best way forward.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You seek information to fulfill your personal needs, and to better understand the sociopolitical landscape you must traverse to forward your goals. Carefully choose your information sources. Unbiased facts will give you plenty of room to make up your own mind and save you from falling prey to unhelpful agendas.

CONTRACT BRIDGE — BY STEVE BECKER

CONTRACT BRIDGE Bidding quiz

You are South, both sides vulnerable, and North opens One Diamond, over which East bids One Spade. What would you bid with each of the following five hands? 1. ♠ AQ6 ♥ 872 ♦ 963 ♣ 9754 2. ♠ Q94 ♥ AJ8 ♦ AQ7 ♣ Q872 3. ♠ KJ9852 ♥ 97 ♦ 84 ♣ Q63 4. ♠ K8 ♥ 102 ♦ AQ95 ♣ AKJ53 5. ♠ 97 ♥ 962 ♦ AJ87 ♣ AQ96 * * *

1. Pass. You presumably would have responded one notrump if East had passed, but you are relieved of that obligation after East intervenes with one spade. The temptation to bid one notrump to show that you have the spades stopped should be resisted, since such a bid, voluntarily made, indicates a good seven to 10 points rather than just six. 2. Two notrump. The requirements for a jump-response of two notrump — balanced hand with 13 to 15 points — are the same whether there is an intervening bid or not. True, your spade stopper is a bit tenuous, but this minor blemish does not nullify the descriptive advantage to be gained by bidding two notrump. 3. Pass. For those who play that a double would be for penalties in this situation, there is certainly a strong temptation to take that action here, but from a tactical standpoint, this would be the wrong thing to do. Whenever you double for penalties after partner

has opened the bidding, you are encouraging him to double anything else the opponents bid — and here you are not at all prepared for such a development. Moreover, the double guarantees that you will take further action of some kind if the overcaller’s partner runs to a different suit and your partner passes — and you aren’t ready to do that, either. 4. Three clubs. The best way to alert partner to the possibility of a slam is to start by jump-shifting in clubs. This shows at least 17 points, including distributional values. By bidding clubs now and raising diamonds later, you will imply shortage in either spades or hearts, or possibly both. Once you jump-shift and then support diamonds, you should leave the rest to partner. 5. Two clubs. Here you are confronted by a fairly common situation: Your values are too good for a raise to two diamonds and not good enough for a forcing raise to three diamonds. In other words, your hand is worth a bid of about two-and-a-half diamonds. The usual way to deal with this dilemma is to first bid a new suit to force partner to bid again, and then raise diamonds later to encourage him to continue bidding. An alternative, now popular with many players, would be to bid two spades, a cuebid of the opponent’s suit, to indicate a hand of 11 or more points with diamond support.

LIPARI from page 3 runner-up at the Fleet Feet Liberty Mile (4:28), just edged by Nikki Hiltz. Today, the track star divides her time between residences in Hawaii and San Diego, where she lives with her husband, Tim, a Roslyn-area native who is currently a submarine officer with the United States Navy. Her mind, however, remains on her hometown, with family, friends, and coaches. “The further I get from Long Island, the more I actually miss it,” Lipari said in the 2017 interview. “I had a really close relationship with my two Roslyn High School coaches, and I think the reason why I have a blossoming career right now is because they were great, intelligent coaches. My coaches really helped me to grow up to be a really great athlete and I’ve always been very thankful for all the advice and help they’ve given me. When I think about it, I really miss home a lot. I live a very nomadic lifestyle, and I’m never in any place for longer than two months, so whenever I get to go home I always try to spend an extended amount of time at Roslyn High School and relive all of the wonderful memories that I have there.” It’s hard to keep up with all the honors Lipari has garnered during her career. In 2014, she was named the Women’s Track Athlete of the Year in the Mid-Atlantic Region, an honor accorded by the United States Track & Field and Cross-Country Coaches Association.

Lipari received the honor once during her career in all three seasons at Villanova, including winning the award for the 2013 cross country season and for the 2012-13 indoor track & field campaign. In 2013, Lipari won seven consecutive individual races dating back to her victory in the Mile at the indoor national championships. Lipari won the 800 meters at the Big East Championships and was the top-ranked national qualifier for the 1500 meters after setting a meet record in the event at the 2013 NCAA East Preliminary. She also delivered the Wildcats to a sweep of the distance relay events at the Penn Relays in a historic performance at the famed meet. Most recently, Lipari, in 2017, won three top mile races with her strong closing kick: Medtronic TC 1 Mile (4:35), GNC Live Well Liberty Mile (4:35) and HOKA ONE ONE Long Island Mile (4:28.84, her first track sub-4:30). The former two victories secured the BBTM Grand Prix Tour 2017 women’s title. Lipari opened her 2018 outdoor racing season by winning her first USA title at the Grand Blue Mile, edging 2016 Rio Olympian Brenda Martinez, 4:32.87 to 4:33.07. Two weeks later, she defended her Medtronic TC 1 Mile crown in 4:40. In August of that year, there were wins at the West Chester Mile and inaugural Guardian Mile, running 4:28.62 (track) and 4:34 (road), respectively. also defended her BBTM Grand Prix Tour crown. In 2019, Emily again won the Fleet Feet Liberty Mile in 4:34, her second title at the

BBTM Grand Prix Tour event. In October, she shattered the course record with her 4:33 clocking at The Navy Mile, the BBTM GP Tour 2019 finale, and also finished Tour 2019 women’s runner-up. In 2020, the Villanova grad won her second USA 1 Mile Road Championship, breaking the tape in 4:29.3 at the Blue Oval Showcase in Des Moines, IA.

Today, the track star divides her time between residences in Hawaii and San Diego, where she lives with her husband, Tim, a Roslyn-area native who is currently a submarine officer with the United States Navy. Her mind, however, remains on her hometown, with family, friends, and coaches. And this athlete just keeps making memories, the latest being her induction into the Nassau County Hall of Fame. Congrats!

Walk With A Zombie At The Bryant Library THE ROSLYN NEWS STAFF roslyn@antonmediagroup.com

On Tuesday, Oct. 24, from 1 to 2:30 p.m., the Bryant Library will present another Film Noir Theater production. Keith Crocker will lecture on the 1943 classic horror film, I Walked With A Zombie. The film, which stars James Ellison, Frances Dee, and Tom Conway, follows a Canadian nurse who travels to care for the ailing wife of a sugar plantation owner in the Caribbean, where she witnesses voodoo rituals and possible encounters with the walking dead. Film critic Ken Youston describes the film thusly: “Young Canadian nurse Betsy comes to the West Indies to care for Jessica, the wife of a plantation manager Paul Holland. Jessica seems to be suffering from a kind of mental paralysis as a result of fever. When she falls in love with Paul, Betsy determines to cure Jessica even if she needs to use a voodoo ceremony, to give Paul what she thinks he wants. Such themes as voodoo, shock treatment, betrayal, death, and reconciliation are addressed amidst the horror scenes. I Walked with a Zombie opened in New York City on April 21, before expanding

nationwide on April 30. The film was re-released in the United States by RKO in 1956, opening in Los Angeles on July 16 and screening nationwide throughout the fall and into late December. Even though the initial reception was mixed, the film has enjoyed a long life. In 2007, Stylus Magazine named I Walked with a Zombie the fifth best zombie film of all time. In 1943, Wanda Hale of the New York Daily News awarded it two-and-a-half out of three stars and praised it as a “spine-chilling horror film.” The website Rotten Tomatoes gave the film an approval rating of 85 percent based on 41 reviews, with an average score of 8.1. The site’s “critics consensus” reads: “Evocative direction by Jacques Tourneur collides with the low-rent production values of exploitateer Val Lewton in I Walked with a Zombie, a sultry sleeper that’s simultaneously smarmy, eloquent and fascinating.” Author and film critic Leonard Maltin gave the film three-anda-half out of four stars, calling it an “exceptional Val Lewton chiller.” Dennis Schwartz awarded the film an A grade, praising the atmosphere, the story, and Tourneur’s direction. TV Guide awarded the film its highest rating of five out of five stars, calling it “an unqualified horror masterpiece.” The library is at 2 Paper Mill Rd.
