Nassau County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) spokesman Gary Rogers, Head of the Town’s Animal Shelter Laurie Scarpa, Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Town Clerk James Altadonna Jr. with Steve, a 3 year old Yorkie mix who was abandoned in a bag on Washington Avenue. BY GARY SIMEONE Newly elected Oyster Bay Town Supervisor, Joseph Saladino, held a press conference at the Town Animal Shelter on Monday regarding a recently abandoned dog that was discovered last Tuesday off of a jogging path in Plainview. The dog, a male Yorkie mix was found in a Sherpa bag by two joggers in a wooded area off of Washington Avenue. Gary Rogers of the Nassau County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) and Town Clerk, Jim Altadonna also spoke at the press conference. “We want to bring attention to the sad situation that occurred last week where this male Yorkie mix was discovered inside of a Sherpa bag off of Washington Avenue in Plainview,” said Saladino. “The dog appears to be lost or abandoned but otherwise is healthy and in good shape.” He said if the dog, who the Animal Shelter has affectionately named ‘Steve’ was lost, the Town would like to reach out

to the owner to try to get him back. And if the dog was abandoned the person or persons held responsible would be brought to justice. “This is a great opportunity to reach out to the public and get the details out about Steve,” said Saladino. “We’d like to see if there is a loving family out there who’d like to adopt this animal,” Gary Rogers of the SPCA, said in his thirty plus years in working with the organization, he’s never seen an animal trapped in a carrier case and abandoned in the woods like that. “This is a serious issue where this poor dog was confined in a bag like that and possibly left to die,” said Rogers. “If this is a case of animal abandonment we are offering a $5,000 award for the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for this reprehensible act.” Rogers said he has seen similar cases like this before but never with an animal tossed into the woods inside of tightly conSee page 8

Town of Oyster Bay appoints new leaders in various posts

In a showing of changes to come under his administration, Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino announced the addition of new leaders to various Town roles. At the Town Board meeting held Tuesday, February 14, the Town welcomed a new Deputy Supervisor, Town Attorney, Planning Commissioner, and announced the appointment of a new Commissioner of Public Works. Included in the appointments is Joseph Nocella as Town Attorney. “Few people are aware of the depth of the role the Town Attorney’s Office plays in both Town government and the daily lives of Town residents,” Supervisor Saladino said. “The decision to bring Joe aboard represented a unique opportunity to bring in someone who not only has an extensive background within municipal government, but also has a sterling track record as a federal prosecutor and litigator who has always gone above and beyond the call of duty.” Town Attorney Nocella brings unprecedented credentials to his appointment as Town Attorney. Dating back to his time as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Criminal Division of the U.S. Department of Justice, Eastern District of New York, where he was commended by the Director of the FBI for his efforts in prosecuting racketeering, extortion, and fraud cases, Town Attorney Nocella has proven time and again to have the highest moral and ethical standards, as well as a willingness to take on the toughest battles possible to protect the best interests of his fellow citizens. In addition to a new Town Attorney, the Town Board voted to approve the appointments of Elizabeth Maccarone as Commissioner of the Department of Planning and Development and Richard Lenz as the Commissioner of the Department of Public Works. The Supervisor also announced his selection of Gregory W. Carman Jr. as Deputy Supervisor. Supervisor Saladino noted that each of these individuals brought a wealth of ability and experience to the positions they have been appointed to. “Elizabeth Maccarone has worked for the Town of Oyster Bay for nearly 30 years, nearly half of which were spent in the Town’s Department of Planning and Development, and will do an excellent job of increasing efficiency in that department while serving the residents and property owners of the Town of Oyster Bay in the best way possible,” Supervisor Saladino said. “Gregory Carman is a talented, thoughtful, and thoroughly experienced individual who has been extremely active in making his local community a better place, both through public service as the former Farmingdale Village Attorney, and through endeavors such as chairing the Board of Trustees for the Hagedorn Little Village School Jack Joel Center for Special Children,” Supervisor Saladino stated. “Greg hails from a family with a distinguished history of public service, and I am excited to bring him on as Deputy Supervisor to help build a proud future for our great Town. “Finally, Richard Lenz brings decades of municipal experience to his appointment as Commissioner of the Town’s Department of Public Works, a post he once held with fantastic results,” said Supervisor Saladino. “Recently, Richard has served as the Long Island Regional Vice President of the Society of Professional Engineers, representing Nassau and Suffolk County at the State level, looking out for the best interests to help maintain Long Island’s suburban quality of life.”

Bagel Boss hosts National Bagel Eating contest BY GARY SIMEONE

Five competitors dove in to their basket of bagels but only one came out the victor at Bagel Boss on Sunday in the second annual bagel eating contest sponsored by the National Bagel Association. The contest took place at two Bagel Boss locations across Long Island including the one in Hicksville and one in Hewlett. The event run in conjunction with National Bagel Day which takes place on February 9th. “It is our second year doing this event and the main idea behind it is to try and create more foot traffic into bagel stores and to gain more exposure into these type of events,” said founder and CEO of the National Bagel Association, Andrew Hazen. “This year for the first time we will have our first Facebook live feed in each store on a big screen TV so people can see what is going on in each contest.” Hazen is also the CEO of Angel Dough Ventures, a holding company in Westbury, CEO of Launchpad Long Island and CEO of the Bagel of the Month Club. At the Bagel Boss in Hicksville, the competitors stood side by side in front of a table with a basket full of fresh plain bagels and an assortment of beverages to help wash the food down. Butter and cream cheese were also provided. The five men, who ranged in age from 20 to 40 had eight minutes to consume as many bagels as they could without spitting the food out or throwing it up. Yes, either of those things counts as a disqualifier. Former competitive eating champion, Don Lerman, helped judge the contest as onlookers including patrons and bagel store employees cheered the contestants on.

The competitors had various strategies and methods, some electing to dunk their bagels in water and shoveling big pieces in their mouths and others took small quick bites to see who would emerge the champion. The time was winding down on the clock and it was a race between two burley eaters, former heavyweight boxer, Dave Brunelli of Philadelphia and Wayne Alajeno, nickname, Wayne Wonder. Both men were shoveling the bagels in their mouths as fast as their hands could get them in as the seconds ticked off the clock to the final buzzer. With bagels crumbs and water all over their mouths and clothes it was determined that Dave Brunelli, the astonishing consumer of eleven whole bagels, was the champion eater. “They were delicious bagels what can I say and I didn’t have any breakfast,” said Brunelli, the winner of a $500 cash prize and a National Bagel Eating Champion plaque. He said that his strategy was to keep dunking the bagels into a bowl full of water to soften them up and keep pushing himself mentally and physically. Asked if he’d be back for next year’s contest, Brunelli replied, “Sure, definitely. It was a lot of fun.” The other contestants included an employee of Bagel Boss and two men who are residents of Plainview and Jericho. Ben Keslowitz of Plainview, said that he found out about the competition an hour before it started and he did not have a lot of time to prepare. “Needless to say I didn’t do very well, eating only a couple of bagels, but overall I thought the whole thing was very well done and I had a great time,” said Keslowitz .

New Peruvian restaurant adds flair to menu BY GARY SIMEONE Located in a strip mall along Old Country Road, the new Peruvian restaurant, Jalea, stands out among the crowd of stores. The restaurant, which took over the location from La Parvita Bakery & restaurant, has a storefront that is emboldened in bright white letters with a red outline and a giant shrimp substituted for the L in Jalea. But it is the menu with items like trio leche de tigre tasting and tacu tacu that has the customers coming back for more. “We have some unique sounding items on our menu but are biggest sellers are traditional dishes like chupe de camarones (shrimp chowder) and of course jalea, which is a native Peruvian seafood dish,” said restaurant co-owner, Alex Salazar. He and Jenny Jaches, who are both of Levittown, opened the restaurant in late December and it has so far gotten favorable reviews from customers through word of mouth and online sites like Yelp and Facebook. “We have definitely gotten good feedback on our menu items, the food presentation and the atmosphere,” said Salazar. One review on Yelp said that the restaurant was a “hidden gem and a great addition to the neighborhood. It has amazing food, amazing service and a beautiful atmosphere. The restaurant

was super clean.” Another review on Yelp exclaimed Jalea as being, “very clean, modern and nicely decorated. I noticed the customers eating in were happy and the food presentation looked good. I would make this a frequent restaurant to visit.” This is the first time that Salazar and his partner have dabbled in the restaurant business and he said that while searching for locations to open up they both wanted an area that was centrally located and ethnically diverse. “We both thought Hicksville was a great location because of the diversity of the people in the community and because it was a great central location for people to go out and enjoy a lot of different type of restaurants.” The restaurant is another in a trend of new Peruvian eating establishments on the Island. La Candela opened its doors in Hickville a few years ago and there is also Las Vinas in Mineola and the Inkan in Garden City Park. Salazar said that one thing that makes his restaurant unique amongst its peers is the in house authentic chef who is of Peruvian background. “I think that people can tell the difference between someone who has learned how to cook a certain type of cuisine compared with someone who was born was it.”

Levittown middle school students visit with popular author

Holly Goldberg Sloan, author of “Counting By 7s,” met with Jonas E. Salk and Wisdom Lane middle school students in Levittown as a culminating activity for the district’s Summer Reading Extravaganza. The students selected to attend a breakfast or lunch with the popular writer were raffle ticket winners who had attended Summer Reading Extravaganza book discussions with Director of ELA, K-12 Kerin Slattery. They also visited the Levittown Public Library over the summer, completed work on the district’s interactive website and/or volunteered as docents at the READ Showcase this fall. During the activities, Sloan took a photo with individual students and signed their picture frames, so each has a personal memento. She also mentioned how impressed she was by the Summer Reading Extravaganza and that she wanted to be sure to meet with them prior to the start of her tour for her newly released book, “Short.” Photo courtesy of the Levittown School District.

DID YOU KNOW?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, regular physical activity is one of the most important things older adults can do to promote their longterm health. The CDC recommends that men and women age 65 or older who are generally fit and have no limiting health conditions need at least two hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity, such as brisk walking, each week. In addition, such people should perform strength-training activities that work all major muscle groups at least two days per week. While many fit older men and women with no preexisting health conditions are capable of these activities, those able to push themselves a little further can opt for 75 minutes per week of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity, such as jogging or running, combined with the same strength-training regimen. A combination of moderate- and vigorous-intensity aerobic activity coupled with strength training may also provide adequate physical activity for aging men and women. Before beginning a new exercise regimen, men and women should consult with their physicians to discuss any limitations they may have and how to manage those risks while still being physically active.

Host a successful event with the help of a catering hall

Special occasions often call for special venues. Catering halls are capable of hosting big and small parties, making them worthy of consideration for hosts looking to impress. While catering halls are most often associated with weddings, such venues can host everything from birthdays to religious rites of passage to anniversary parties and more. Catering hall staff can guide clients through the booking, preparation and hosting of their events. Many party hosts prefer to leave much of the hosting work to the professionals, feeling it reduces the stress associated with hosting while ensuring hosts they will have the time to mingle with guests and enjoy the festivities. Working with a reputable and reliable caterer is the first step toward ensuring a party will be successful and enjoyable. The following tips can help anyone develop a good relationship with a caterer en route to hosting a fun and memorable party. • Think about the size of the venue. Catering halls can cater to parties of various sizes. When choosing a venue for the party, hosts should keep the comfort of their guests in mind. Guests should be able to move around and not feel as though they are sitting on top of one another at the tables. Halls can be too big as well.

Rooms that are too large for the guest list can feel uncomfortable and make guests feel isolated. • Develop a budget. Budget should factor into hosts’ decisions regarding a catering hall. Speak with the catering manager prior to booking and be sure that there is a package that will fit into your budget. When examining catering packages, hosts can discuss if certain substitutions or amendments can be made to packages

to meet their needs and the needs of their guests. • Consider the banquet hall location. Proximity to public transportation, highways and hotels is an important consideration. Guests should be able to get to and from the venue with ease. Try to find a catering hall that is not too far from home. This way you can communicate with the banquet manager and be able to pop in to drop off centerpieces and favors easily or handle any other last-minute issues that pop up. • Explore the amenities. Amenities, such as outdoor gardens or gazebos for photo opportunities, can add to the experience of throwing a party at a catering hall. Hosts should compare amenities at the catering halls they’re considering, and factor in the benefits of having those amenities versus the disadvantages of choosing a venue with no such offerings. • Don’t forget the food. Food should not be overlooked when choosing a catering hall. Be sure to taste test the menu to determine if the food is up to par. Catering halls can be beautiful, but the food should meet hosts’ expectations as well. Finding the right catering hall requires hosts to consider the venue, their budgets and a host of additional factors.

Black tie affair ... now what?

Box Office Open Tuesday-Saturday At 12:30PM-5PM

ALL DATES, ACTS AND TICKET PRICES SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. TICKETS SUBJECT TO SERVICE CHARGES.

FOR OUR FULL SCHEDULE VISIT www.TheTheatreAtWestbury.com

Receiving an invitation to a wedding or another party in the mail can be an exciting prospect, presenting a chance to enjoy a night out and share several hours in the company of friends and family. Upon opening the invite, you may find the words “black tie.” If you have never attended a black tie event, you may be unsure what that entails and how to prepare. The appearance of “black tie” on an invitation means the party hosts are planning a formal affair and they’d like their guests to dress appropriately. For men, this dress code is unequivocally a black tuxedo. Gentleman who want to dress in the spirit of the occasion should purchase a tuxedo or rent one if finances do not allow for the purchase. Accompanying the tuxedo is a bow tie. Now is not the time to don a clip-on. Only a hand-tied bow tie will suffice. Additionally, men are expected to be conservative with their choice of tuxedo shirt. A white shirt is customary. It may have ribbing or a subtle detail. If a cummerbund or vest is worn, it should also be black. However, sometimes matching the vest or cummerbund to a date’s dress is acceptable. Women have a little more wiggle room when it comes to dressing for a black tie affair. A cocktail dress is customary, and many women prefer to wear something floor length because it appears more formal than a shorter dress. Dressy separates also are acceptable, provided they look formal enough. A ball gown or something you might see a celebrity wearing on the red carpet is customary.

On some occasions, some men may not want to be curtailed by dress code and may use the opportunity to dress as they would like. This is a breach of etiquette. Although a party host may be accommodating to the lack of tuxedo, he or she doesn’t have to be. If you are invited to a black tie party, try to keep with the dress code so you are respectful of the party hosts. In some instances, an invitation may read “black tie preferred” or “black tie optional.” At such events, the hosts are giving guests the option to attend even if they prefer not to wear extremely formal attire. In this case, it’s still in your best interest to dress as formally as possible. A black suit for a man and a cocktail dress for a woman are appropriate. White tie is similar to black tie. Men are expected to wear full dress with a white shirt, white vest and white tie. Women wear long, fancy gowns. Party hosts who request formal attire are trying to keep a uniform look to their party and avoid any conflicts that could arise with lax dress code requirements. If a host or hostess has specified a dress code, it is in proper form to stick to the requirements or decline the invitation. If you are ever in doubt about what to wear, you can always ask your hosts what is expected of you.

Four Friends and a Babymoon in Morro Bay on California’s Highway 1 BY DAVE E. LEIBERMAN, LAINI MIRANDA, MAYA KESSEL, ANDREW KESSEL We are four friends, two couples, from different cities, who get together as often as we can, although not as often as we’d like, to go on adventures. With the first baby expected in our group, we thought we’d take one last adventure before the greatest adventure of all. Hence, our first “babymoon.” Our adventure takes place in Morro Bay and along California’s Highway 1, a gorgeous Pacific coastal road that embraces the mood of dreamers and wanderers who tend to find themselves there. Before this trip some of us hadn’t even heard of a babymoon or Morro Bay (except in the recent movie “Finding Dory”). In thinking about winter holiday destinations, Zika prevented us from considering many Southern spots while a ski trip for a 6-month pregnant woman was similarly a bad choice. Instead, we set our sights on the Central Coast of California, easily accessible from Los Angeles airport while still providing a great escape from the wintrier East Coast. We did not know what to expect. What we discovered was an amazing combination of outdoor sports and nature, wine, gastronomic delights featuring some of the best seafood we’ve ever had, and so much more, all nestled in beautiful California coastal towns. Highway 1 is famous

the route you will find such popular attractions as the Hearst Castle, the Elephant Seal Rookery, dozens of wine vineyards (11 just in the 40 minute drive from Rock to Castle), oyster farms, and charming coastal

than sit back and stare at it. Some highlights of our adventure includes a visit to Hearst Castle (http:// hearstcastle.org/), a personal guided tour along the Morro Bay Estuary with Central Coast Kayaks (www. centralcoastkayaks.com) watching the sunset with Elephant Seals at Piedras Blancas (http://www.elephantseal. org/) just at the start of their birthing season in late December, a winery tour and tasting at Kelsey See Canyon Vineyards (http://kelseywine. com/), Pedego Electric biking (http:// www.pedegoelectricbikes.com/dealers/ avila-beach/) in Avila Beach, and relaxing in our private mineral springs hot tub on the balcony of the Sycamore Mineral Springs Resort & Spa (https://www.sycamoresprings. com/). Our home base for the first 3 days is Morro Bay, a picturesque and friendly fishing town on the bay that is home to a state and national estuary and bird sanctuary. Once a remote fishing village, Morro Bay is still a busy harbor with an active commercial fishing fleet. Most impressive is how Morro Bay as a community is leading the way in sustainable small fleet fishing practices nationwide, helping support this thriving fishing community. Sustainability and respect for the environment is a theme that carried through our adventure. Food & Wine This is a bountiful wine region and our first stop on our adventure in Morro Bay is the Chateau Margene, one of

View from Hearst Castle (photo by Laini Miranda/Travel Features Syndicate) 10 wineries located along the Pacific Coast Wine Trail, for wine tasting. They have two different wine flights to try and the tasting fee is waived if you buy 2 bottles. We loved learning about the Mooney Family and the production of each of the wines we tried. This boutique, micro-winery produces only 3,000 cases a year of luxury awardwinning Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux blends, as well as Pinot Noir. Owner Michael Mooney co-founded the Cab Collective out of Paso Robles highlighting the many award-winning Cabernets found in the region that rival Napa. One definite perk is that it’s open late and right in the center of town (the only winery nearby open past 5), making it a great spot to hit up just before dinner. If wine isn’t your thing

they also have superb infused olive oils and local vinegar samples. (Chateau Margene, 845 Embarcadero, 805-2251235, www.chateaumargene.com). Next stop, dinner at Windows on the Water, a fine dining restaurant that has a gorgeous panoramic view of the bay and a friendly atmosphere. They also have a lively bar area, live music many nights, and regular weekly specials including $5 martini Mondays, $.75 oyster Tuesdays (elsewhere around town we hear that Tuesdays are the big crab night), and Sliders & Beer Wednesdays and $1 Taco & Tequila Thursdays. Windows, like a few of the other restaurants we visited, emphasizes the season-driven approach to continually changing menus. They take pride in their sustainably

raised livestock and seafood and locally sourced produce, so you can feel good about how your dinner was caught and prepared while savoring in the delicious freshness of the food. Their wine flights highlight local vineyards and an extensive wine list showcases the expertise of their in-house sommelier, Chris Battles. There is something on this menu for everyone. Starters and salads range from $10-20 and are small, but packed with flavor. Entrees are between $25-39 and fairly large. Our waitress Elizabeth recommends the local halibut and pork loins. Windows is famous for its local sand dabs (a lighter white fish maybe similar to a flounder, but sweeter), so popular, that it is sadly sold out by the time we arrive. Their bread and own garlic and herbs olive oil and vinegar dip is so good, it is hard not to fill up on it before dinner. We enjoy the very crispy, full-of-sprouts crab cakes with a fresh arugula salad pre-entree. For dessert we taste the three homemade ice cream scoops, which, like the rest of the menu, rotate with the season (in the past they’ve had lucky charms and peanut butter chocolate ice cream). We enjoy a vanilla, toasted coconut, and egg nog ice cream perfect for the season. One of the best vanilla ice creams we’ve ever tried. (Windows on the Water, 699 Embarcadero, Morro Bay, CA 93442, 805772-0677, www.windowsmb.com). We head to our accommodations, 456 Embarcadero Inn and Suites, wonderfully well located in the central part of town, with spectacular views of the coast and the great Morro Rock, so we can just park our car and leave it for the duration of their of our stay in Morro Bay. The front desk staff goes

Whale Watching Early the next morning we set off for the whale watching adventure with Sub Sea Tour Whale Watching. The staff is professional, courteous, and very friendly. The small boat carries about 20 of us for the 3-hour trip. We sail passed the iconic Morro Rock for a great photo op and stop by the halfmile beacon mark on our way out as well where seals tend to gather. The famous Morro Rock, now a

State Historic Landmark, is the most distinctive and recognizable landmark of Morro Bay. The 576-foot tall mass of volcanic rock rises above the Pacific Ocean, separating the inviting sands of Morro Strand State Beach from the blue waters of Morro Bay Harbor. While the seas were a bit choppy the lighting was perfect for spotting whales as our guide shared interesting facts about the area and its wildlife. In fact, mid to late December marks the beginning of the great migration of the Gray Whale. Unlike New England and other places famous for whale watching, December whale watching in Central California is very doable. Seeing wildlife, including whales on a tour is always somewhat of a gamble (they report sightings on 90% of their trips). Unfortunately, we are in the 10% and don’t get a whale sighting. Be sure to dress in layers since it can get chilly (and windy!) out at sea. After whale watching, we have lunch just a few feet away at Blue Sky Bistro. We sample a variety of items on the menu including the lobster bisque, clam chowder, Mahi Mahi sandwich, California burgers, and Sailor Benedict eggs. Blue Sky is picturesque, affordable, filling, and the service is friendly. Hearst Castle

above and beyond. They even offer us blankets for our whale watching tour. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and even feature a gas fireplace. The inn offers 33 boutique guestrooms, each with a panoramic view of the bay and the iconic rock from a private deck. Showers come with dispensers, which are appreciated over the typical wasteful bottles of shampoo and soap provided at most hotels. The hot tub is a welcomed, very modern styled amenity, snuck away in a nook on the second floor. Breakfast comes complimentary and is a nice filling way to start the day. The inn is familyowned and operated and pet-friendly. (456 Embarcadero Inn & Suites, 456 Embarcadero Blvd., Morro Bay, CA 93442, 805-772-2700, www.embarcaderoinn. com).

The 40,000 acres of ranchland was originally purchased by George Hearst for family retreats. Newspaper mogul, William Randolph Hearst inherited the land in 1919, by that time having grown to more than 250,000 acres. He dreamed of building a retreat for friends and a place to house

his immense art collection. He hired the first woman architect in California, Julia Morgan, and together they built “La Cuesta Encantada” (The Enchanted Hill) into what is now the 165-room Hearst Castle. To tour the castle and its surrounding property, you must buy tickets in advance, as they often sell out. See page D5

The bold & distinctly talented Georgia O’Keeffe BY CLAIRE LYNCH I like reading about people who were ahead of their time. Men or women, it doesn’t matter. Anyone who had a vision for their lives, who had a dream and chased it is fascinating to me. I looked into a female American artist who was a pioneer in many ways. Georgia O’Keeffe pursued her dream of spending her life painting and making a name for herself at a time when the art world was dominated by men. She forged ahead anyway and with a lot of hard work, O’Keeffe’s dream came true. As a result, she paved the way for the many women artists who came after her. She could paint realistic works and abstract works. She took everyday sights in nature and made them larger than life. She believed that she shouldn’t just paint what she saw but that she should put her feelings and thoughts into her paintings. She was on the cutting edge and she seemed to take pleasure in pushing people to look closely at her paintings. She is best known for her paintings of enlarged flowers, New York skyscrapers and New Mexico landscapes. She is known as the “Mother of American modernism.”

Georgia O’Keeffe was born on November 15, 1887, in a farmhouse located at 2405 Hwy T in the town of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. Her parents, Francis Calyxtus O’Keeffe and Ida (Totto) O’Keeffe, were successful dairy farmers. Her father was of Irish descent. She was named after her mother’s father, George Victor Totto, who was a Hungarian count who came to the U.S. in 1848. (wikipedia.org) Georgia O’Keeffe was the second of seven children and the first daughter. She attended Town Hall School in Sun Prairie. By age 10 she had decided to become an artist, and she received art instruction at home from a local watercolorist. O’Keeffe attended high school at Sacred Heart Academy in Madison, Wisconsin, as a boarder between 1901 and 1902. In late 1902, the O’Keeffes moved from Wisconsin to the neighborhood of Peacock Hill in Williamsburg, Virginia. O’Keeffe stayed in Wisconsin with her aunt and attended Madison High School, and while she was in high school her art teacher showed her a picture of a wildflower and told her to look at it closely before she picked up a pencil or a paintbrush. Listening to her teacher’s words, O’Keeffe studied the wildflower. She

turned it this way and that. She drew it over and over. She wanted her art to be simple and to make a statement. She has said that to just copy the wildflower would have been dull. She later said that her high school art teacher’s advice was some of the best she ever received. After finishing high school O’Keeffe joined her family in Virginia in 1903. In 1905, O’Keeffe began her serious formal art training at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and then the Art Students League of New York, but she felt constrained by her lessons that focused on recreating or copying what was in nature. In 1908, unable to fund further education, she worked for two years as a commercial illustrator, and then spent seven years between 1911 and 1918 teaching in Virginia, Texas and South Carolina. It was while she was teaching at Columbia College in Columbia, S.C., that O’Keeffe began a series of abstract charcoal drawings. She was one of the first American artists to practice “pure abstraction,” according to the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. (biography.com) O’Keeffe mailed a few of her drawings to a friend and former classmate who showed the work to Alfred Stieglitz, a N.Y. art dealer and photogra-

pher. Impressed by O’Keeffe’s work, he and O’Keeffe began a correspondence and without telling O’Keeffe, Stieglitz exhibited 10 of her drawings at the 291 Gallery in New York (on Fifth Ave.) in 1916. She didn’t know about the exhibit, but allowed him to continue to show the work. In 1917, he presented her first solo show. A year later she moved to New York, and Stieglitz found a place for her to live and work. He also provided financial support for her to focus on her art. Their relationship deepened and in 1924 Stieglitz and O’Keeffe married. They lived in New York City and spent their summers in Lake George, N.Y., where Stieglitz’s family had a home. Inspired by the vibrancy of the modern art movement, she began to experiment with perspective, painting larger-scale close-ups of flowers, the first of which was “Petunia No. 2,” which was exhibited in 1925, followed by works such as “Black Iris” (1926) and “Oriental Poppies” (1928). “If I could paint the flower exactly as I see it no one would see what I see because I would paint it small like the flower is small,” O’Keeffe once explained. “So I said to myself - I’ll paint what See page D7

Don’t Worry. Be Happy! It’s Nickels and Dimes. BY TOM MARGENAU

I am always surprised at the number of people who are so darn intent on squeezing every last nickel they can out of their Social Security benefits. I get that people want to get all the benefits for which they are eligible. But some folks seem absolutely obsessed about the issue. I swear they must lie awake at night, worrying about decisions they think will cost them thousands of dollars in lost benefits, but in reality are usually a matter of nickels and dimes. I’ve saved up a few emails from some of these readers to share them with you today. Q: I will turn 70 on April 22, 2017. I want to make sure I get the full 32 percent bonus for delaying my retirement until that age. I’m afraid that if I file for those benefits a little early, like in March, for example, that they will start my checks in March and I will lose my bonus. Should I wait until April 21 to file? A: It sounds like you think the 32 percent delayed retirement bonus is an all or nothing deal. In other words, you assume you get an extra 32 percent added to your monthly benefits if you wait until exactly age 70 to file. But that is not how it works. Instead, the delayed retirement credits are calculated this way. You get an extra two-thirds of one percent added to your Social Security benefit rate for each month you delay retirement beyond age 66. That comes out to 8 percent per year, or 32 percent if you wait until age 70 to file. So, you can file for benefits tomorrow and just tell the Social Security people you want your benefits to start in April when you are 70. And if the worst-case scenario happens, and they start your benefits right away, you would end up getting about a 31 percent bonus instead of 32. And if that were to happen, you could either keep the extra Social Security check or two that you get, or you could go back to your Social Security office and tell them to change the effective date of your benefits to April. Q: I will be 63 in June. I want my benefits to begin then. I understand I will get about 80 percent of my benefits if I do that. I don’t want to take any more reduction than that. How can I make sure my checks start in June? A: You can do whatever you want to do, of course. After all, they are your Social Security benefits. So when you fill out your retirement application, just make sure you indicate June 2017 as the month you want your Social Security checks to start. But frankly, I am a little confused why you are so worried that your benefits start exactly at age 63. Your monthly benefit rate is reduced about one-half of one percent for each month they are

taken before age 66. (The reduction rate is actually five-ninths of one percent for some of the months, and five-twelfths of one percent for the other months. That’s why I just round it out to about one half of one percent.) You were right that if you take your benefits at 63, you would get 80 percent. But if, for example, they were to start a couple months earlier, you’d get maybe 78 or 79 percent. In other words, you’d lose a few bucks per month, but you’d gain one or two Social Security checks. So again, just make sure you indicate June as your starting date when you fill out your retirement application. But if mistakes are made, and you get a couple extra checks with a one or two percent reduction, don’t lose too much sleep over it. And go to your local Social Security office to correct things if you want. Q: I will be 66 next year. I have worked all my life and have always paid taxes on the maximum amount of earnings that could be taxed for Social Security purposes. But my employer just downsized, and I won’t make the max this year. So now I won’t get the maximum Social Security benefit. I’m just sick over this. I’ve been waiting for a long time to get this maximum benefit, and now it’s gone. Can I pay in the difference myself to get back to the maximum? A: No, you can’t pay the taxes on your own. But there is absolutely nothing special about the so-called “maximum” Social Security benefit. It is not like you get some kind of bonus for reaching that milestone. Like everyone else, you simply get a retirement benefit rate that is based on your highest 35 years of inflation-indexed earnings. So if you come up a little shy of the maximum taxable earnings this year, you might make up for it by having earned the maximum in all those prior years -- especially since those past years are adjusted for inflation. And if you don’t end up with the maximum benefit -- so what? What’s the big deal if instead of getting $2,687 per month, you start getting $2,685 per month? As I said in the introduction to this column, it’s all nickels and dimes. And I need to make one more important point about this whole maximum retirement benefit business. That $2,687 figure I just quoted is the maximum monthly retirement benefit for 2017. But that does not mean it is the absolute maximum amount of monthly Social Security benefits that anyone can get from the government. Indeed, there are millions of retirees who get much more than that. $2,687 is the maximum benefit payable to someone turning 66 in 2017 who has paid taxes on maximum Social Security earnings for 35 years. But there are many seniors who work well beyond age 66. And they

get much more than $2,687 per month because of delayed retirement credits paid up until age 70 and because the extra earnings they add to their Social Security account after age 66 will be used to increase their monthly retirement check.

Sitting at 200year old Italian wood tables amidst sterling silver candles and scepters from Ireland, and medieval hand-painted silk banners from Siena, Italy overhead, diners would use paper napkins, Heinz Ketchup bottles and yellow mustard, as the media mogul believed a casual atmosphere would make his guests (often celebrities and politicians) more likely to open up and share stories. Beginning building his San Simeon retreat in the 1920s, Hearst was able to capitalize on the many European collectors desperate to sell after WWI had left much of the region in shambles. Every surface of the rooms is decorated with pieces from his collection (about 25,000 artifacts). Not one to follow advice of art dealers or others, his collection represents his own eclectic taste, which encompassed everything from 15th Century BC Egyptian statues, 16th Century Spanish and 18th Century Italian ceilings, 6th Century BC Greek terracotta pottery, Renaissance paintings, Flemish tapestries, 15th Century Gothic fireplaces, 15th century religious painting, and much more.

Four Friends and a Babymoon in Morro Bay on California’s Highway 1 C ontinued from page D3 attraction but everyone is able to get great views of the playful seals doing their thing. We have a first-hand look at young males sparring for dominance while others sleep undisturbed, groan loudly, flip sand onto their backs or cuddle. Watching these enormous surprisingly cute creatures play, it’s easy for us to forget to look out at the beautiful pacific sunset behind them. The Galley Seafood Grill & Bar is recommended to us by the captain of our whale watching tour as the place to go to really treat yourself, “especially if you want incredibly fresh seafood”. The Galley has a wall of windows overlooking the Bay, warm, modern decor, intimate tables and cozy booths for larger groups. Highlighting their belief in serving only the finest and freshest, their specialty is their “Naked Fish”, with a trio of light sauces served on the side. We share a series of dishes: a perfect Caesar salad with Spanish anchovies, Ceviche, the Original Galley Clam Chowder (their same secret recipe since 1966), Pan Seared Scallops, Blackened Pacific Rockfish (Naked), and a New Zealand Rack of Lamb with Kalamata olive tapenade. The portions are well sized and even the appetizers are ample enough to share. The Blackened Pacific Rockfish was cooked so perfectly it seems to melt in your mouth, and indeed, is so flavorful there is no need for the delicious sauces offered on the side. We top off our meal with their Grand Marnier Creme Bruleé. With nice size portions, the freshest ingredients, distinctive flavors,

and attentive service, we love every minute of our dining experience at The Galley. (The Galley Seafood Grill & Bar, 899 Embarcadero Morro Bay, CA 93442) Kayaking Estuary

the

Morro

Bay

After breakfast at The Embarcadero, we set out for our next great outdoor adventure kayaking in the Morro Bay Estuary Natural Preserve. We meet Craig, our guide from Central Coast Outdoors for the tour, who provides an intimate and comprehensive account of wildlife in the area as well as the relationship of the local people to it. The Morro Bay Estuary Natural Preserve and its 800-acre wetland are home to more than 250 species of land, sea, and shore birds, both migratory and resident, and dozens of endangered species. The great blue herons and the great and snowy egrets roost all year at the Heron and Cormorant Rookery located near the entrance of the Museum of Natural History. (The tours are complimentary but it is customary to tip your guide.) The weather is perfect and the estuary waters are calm, unlike the open waters of the bay next to it. This is a perfect activity for our expectant mother, who reclines in comfort while getting some exercise in between guided stops and her husband at the back of the two-person kayak. He takes us along the Estuary with stops to view the countless species of local birds spiraling around us. We spot dozens of bird species and lots of adorable harbor seals. If you’re a fan of

Elephant seals on Piedras Blancas at sunset (photo by Laini Miranda/Travel Features Syndicate) these guys, this is one of the best ways to have a close encounter, as a few seal friends traveled alongside our kayak with their pups for a while (just be careful not to get too close so that you don’t disturb their natural habitat!). We learn that estuaries are an ideal natural breeding ground providing protection from larger predators, and we got to see this firsthand. One of the most memorable sights is seeing the natural fireworks as the birds circle around, rapidly alternating between camouflaging into the background and suddenly reappearing as their white feathers turn towards you. Additionally, despite (or perhaps because of) its historically-dependent marine economy, Morro Bay has taken important steps, even leading-edge techniques that are considered a model, to protect their wildlife. The Limited Entry fleet targets ground fish using non-trawl gear (hook and line, trap, long line). They’ve taken measures to maintain clean waters so that agriculture and nearby homes do not cause any environmental degradation of these important waters. Every tour is unique and Craig considers the weather conditions of the day, tidal patterns, rider abilities, and timing to piece together an ideal tour. Craig also leads bicycle, hiking, and other tours for Central Coast Kayaks. (Central Coast Outdoors, #10 State Park Road, Morro Bay, CA 93442, 805528-1080, www.centralcoastoutdoors. com.) After kayaking, we enjoy a wonderful lunch at Bayside Cafe, just opposite Central Coast’s dock. Originally started in 1986 by a Cal Poly grad as a walk-up cafe, it quickly became so popular that

it had to expand to include a casual bayside dining area with a large outdoor terrace. The restaurant is bustling with a line out the door from the time we enter to the time we leave. Not a bad place to wait for a table, as you can easily kill time hanging out on the benches, dock, or grassy areas along the water. Bayside has an extensive menu filled with local ingredients and both foodie and kid favorites alike. Some food highlights are their fresh salad with grilled catch-of-the-day, amazing thick calamari strips that are meatier than any calamari we’ve had, salmon tacos, and their ever popular fish & chips (definitely get the large!). To cap off our lunch we indulge in their huge serving of homemade mudpie. Hard to choose from their list of pie specialties, but if you like chocolate, this one is not to be missed! On top of the very friendly service, big portions, and awesome food, the vibe here is familial and relaxed, the view beautiful from any seat. This is the perfect lunch spot to rest and indulge while exploring Morro Bay. (Bayside Café, In the Morro Bay Marina across from Morro Bay State Park Campground, #10 State Park Rd, Morro Bay, CA 93442, 805-772-1465). Morro Bay also has some distinctly interesting shops and attractions: Junque Love (699 Embarcadero) specializes in an eclectic mix of vintage and repurposed goods, and represents the heart and soul of old coastal California, featuring artists from all over California that repurpose vintage items into new goods; (805-821-1154; www. facebook.com/Gatheringjunquelove/) Morro Bay Skateboard Museum preserves the complete history of skateboarding,from the early

1930′s to present day, featuring more than 200 skateboards from all eras with rotating exhibits from extensive private collections (601 Embarcadero Road; 805610-3565; www.mbskate.com). The Estuary Nature Center located upstairs in the Marina Square Building at 601 Embarcadero is free and provides a place to experience the beauty of the estuary and learn about protecting

habitats and wildlife (805-772-3834, www. mbnep.org/Learn/nature_center.html). After our satisfying meal at Bayside Cafe, we hit the road and continue south on our adventure along the Highway 1 Discovery Route. First stop is the Kelsey See Canyon Winery.

The bold & distinctly talented Georgia O’Keeffe C ontinued from page D3 I see - what the flower is to me but I’ll paint it big and they will be surprised into taking time to look at it - I will make even busy New Yorkers take time to see what I see of flowers.” O’Keeffe turned her artist’s eye to New York City skyscrapers, the symbol of modernity, in paintings including “City Night” (1926), “Shelton Hotel, New York No. 1” (1926) and “Radiator Bldg Night, New York” (1927). Following numerous solo exhibitions, O’Keeffe had her first retrospective, “Paintings by Georgia O’Keeffe,” which opened at the Brooklyn Museum in 1927. By this time, she had become one of the most important and success-

ful American artists, which was a major achievement for a female artist in the male-dominated art world. Her pioneering success would make her a feminist icon for later generations. In the summer of 1929, O’Keeffe visited northern New Mexico and found that she wanted to paint many aspects of that state. The landscape, architecture and local Navajo culture inspired her and for several summers she returned to New Mexico to paint. During this period, she produced iconic paintings including “Black Cross, New Mexico” (1929), “Cow’s Skull: Red, White and Blue” (1931) and “Ram’s Head, White Hollycock, Hills” (1935), among other works. In the 1940s, O’Keeffe’s work was

Famous Quotes by Georgia O’Keeffe:

“One cannot be an American by going about saying that one is an American. It is necessary to feel America, like America, love America and then work.” “When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it’s your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not.” “One can’t paint New York as it is, but rather as it is felt.” “I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me shapes and ideas so near to me - so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn’t occurred to me to put them down.” “To create one’s world in any of the arts takes courage.” “When I got to New Mexico, that was my country! I’d never seen anything like it before, but it fitted to me exactly. It’s something that’s in the air. It’s different. The sky is different, the wind is different.” “Singing has always seemed to me the most perfect means of expression … Since I cannot sing, I paint.” “I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way - things I had no words for.” “Imagination makes you see all sorts of things.” “I always have a curious sort of feeling about some of my things - I hate to show them - I am perfectly inconsistent about it - I am afraid people won’t understand - and I hope they won’t - and am afraid they will.” “I get out my work and have a show for myself before I have it publicly. I make up my own mind about it - how good or bad or indifferent it is. After that, the critics can write what they please. I have already settled it for myself so flattery and criticism go down the same drain and I am quite free.”

celebrated in retrospectives at the Art Institute of Chicago (1943) and at the Museum of Modern Art (1946), which was the museum’s first retrospective of a female artist’s work. O’Keeffe divided her time between New York, living with Stieglitz, and painting in New Mexico. She was particularly inspired by Ghost Ranch, north of Abiquiú, and she decided to move into a house there in 1940. Five years later, O’Keeffe bought a second house in Abiquiú. Back in New York, Stieglitz died in 1946 at the age of 82. In 1949, O’Keeffe moved to New Mexico which was the same year that she was elected to the National Institute of Arts and Letters. Throughout the 1950s-1970s, O’Keeffe spent much of her time traveling the world, finding new inspirations from the places she visited. She said that she was fascinated by the way things appeared whenever she flew in an airplane since she had a different view of things. That inspired her last two major series - aerial views of rivers (“It Was Blue and Green,” 1960, Whitney Museum), and expansive paintings of the sky viewed from just

above the clouds (“Sky Above Clouds IV,” 1965, The Art Institute of Chicago). In both series, O’Keeffe increased the size of her canvases, sometimes to mural proportions, reflecting perhaps her newly expanded view of the world. (metmuseum.org) These works helped renew her popularity, especially among members of the feminist art movement. In 1977, President Gerald Ford presented Georgia O’Keeffe with the Medal of Freedom. In 1985, she received the National Medal of Arts. O’Keeffe died on March 6, 1986, in Santa Fe, N.M., at age 98. The pioneering artist produced thousands of works over the course of her career, many of which are on exhibit at museums around the world. The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe is dedicated to preserving the life, art and legacy of the artist, and offers tours of her home and studio, which is a national historic landmark. For her courage in pursuing her life’s dream and for succeeding against some difficult odds, I salute Georgia O’Keeffe.

Anecdotes – “Quintessentially O’Keeffe”

--When her mother arranged for her to take art lessons at home as a youngster, Georgia O’Keeffe wasn’t the only student there. Her two grandmothers and two of her sisters liked to paint, also. (biography.com) --Her friends knew that O’Keeffe liked to drive her Model-A Ford out into the country and paint. She had an unusual custom, however. She’d remove the driver’s seat. Then she would unbolt the passenger seat and turn it around to face the back seat. Then she’d lie the canvas on the back seat as an easel and paint from inside her car. Painting inside the car, her “mobile studio,” allowed O’Keeffe to stay out of the rain or the hot desert sun of New Mexico. (mentalfloss.com) --When she bought her two houses in New Mexico, they were simple structures made out of adobe and straw. O’Keeffe enjoyed eating in the vestibule off the kitchen, where she would sit on the banco (adobe ledge) and look out into the New Mexican desert, studded with wildflowers and stunted piñon and juniper trees. (architecturaldigest.com) --Georgia O’Keeffe expressed her feelings about New Mexico in a letter to a friend: “I wish you could see what I see out the window - the earth pink and yellow cliffs to the north - the full pale moon about to go down in an early morning lavender sky . . . pink and purple hills in front and the scrubby fine dull green cedars - and a feeling of much space - It is a very beautiful world.” -- Georgia O’Keeffe didn’t sign her paintings. She didn’t think she had to she thought people would be able to tell they were hers because of what she painted and how she painted it.

Last Hope receives grant to provide free “Trap, Neuter, Release” vouchers

Last Hope thanks PET PEEVES (with our collective cat-loving heart) for a generous $12,000 grant so we can offer the public FREE TNR spay/neuter vouchers for feral cats from Feb.13 to May 1. This grant allows us to be proactive in an attempt to lessen the upcoming kitten season by altering cats before females get pregnant. We’re trying to “Beat the Heat”. The PET PEEVES funds will help Last Hope to spay/neuter at least 200 cats. Cat caretakers can apply for the FREE vouchers, beginning Mon, Feb. 13 at the link below on the Last Hope

website: http://lasthopeanimalrescue.org/fix-a-feral/ After May 1, we will be resuming our regular FIX-A-FERAL program with discounted TNR vouchers at our participating vets. Feral cats are our community “shadow” citizens, so often ignored and tormented. PET PEEVES an advocacy organization for local animal rescues truly is “The Voice of Long Island Pets”. http://petpeeves.org/ Last Hope is so GRATEFUL to PET PEEVES for their continued support of our rescue efforts.

66085 00090 ` TERMS OF SALE Such tax liens shall be sold subject to any and all superior tax liens of sovereignties and other municipalities and to all claims of record which the County may have thereon and subject to the provisions of the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts. However, such tax liens shall have priority over the County’s Differential Interest Lien, representing the excess, if any, of the interest and penalty borne at the maximum rate over the interest and penalty borne at the rate at which the lien is purchased. The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien(s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a tax lien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser’s rights with respect to the lien(s) and the property securing same. Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien. In addition to being subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts, said purchaser’s right of foreclosure may be affected by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act(FIRREA),12 U.S.C. ss 1811 et.seq., with regard to real property under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation(FDIC) receivership. The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed. The Nassau County Treasurer reserves the right to intervene in any bankruptcy case/litigation where the property affected by the tax liens sold by the Treasurer is part of the bankruptcy estate. However,it is the sole responsibility of all tax lien purchasers to protect their legal interests in any bankruptcy case affecting their purchased tax lien, including but not limited to the filing of a proof of claim on their behalf, covering their investment in said tax lien. The Nassau County Treasurer and Nassau County and its agencies, assumes no responsibility for any legal representation of any tax lien purchaser in any legal proceeding including but not limited to a bankruptcy case where the purchased tax lien is at risk. The rate of interest and penalty at which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid.

State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts. However, such tax liens shall have priority over the County’s Differential Interest Lien, representing the excess, if any, of the interest and penalty borne at the maximum rate over the interest and penalty borne at the rate at which the lien is purchased. The Purchaser acknowledges that the tax lien(s) sold pursuant to these Terms of Sale may be subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/or may become subject to such proceedings which may be commenced during the period in which a tax lien is held by a successful bidder or the assignee of same, which may modify a Purchaser’s rights with respect to the lien(s) and the property securing same. Such bankruptcy proceedings shall not affect the validity of the tax lien. In addition to being subject to pending bankruptcy proceedings and/ or the Federal and State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Acts, said purchaser’s right of foreclosure may be affected by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act(FIRREA),12 U.S.C. ss 1811 et.seq., with regard to real property under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation(FDIC) receivership. The County Treasurer reserves the right, without further notice and at any time, to withdraw from sale any of the parcels of land or premises herein listed. The Nassau County Treasurer reserves the right to intervene in any bankruptcy case/litigation where the property affected by the tax liens sold by the Treasurer is part of the bankruptcy estate. However,it is the sole responsibility of all tax lien purchasers to protect their legal interests in any bankruptcy case affecting their purchased tax lien, including but not limited to the filing of a proof of claim on their behalf, covering their investment in said tax lien. The Nassau County Treasurer and Nassau County and its agencies, assumes no responsibility for any legal representation of any tax lien purchaser in any legal proceeding including but not limited to a bankruptcy case where the purchased tax lien is at risk. The rate of interest and penalty at which any person purchases the tax lien shall be established by his bid. Each purchaser, immediately after the sale thereof, shall pay to the County Treasurer ten per cent of the amount for which the tax liens have been sold and the remaining ninety per cent within thirty days after such sale. If the purchaser at the tax sale shall fail to pay the remaining ninety per cent within ten days after he has been notified by the County Treasurer that the certificates of sale are ready for delivery, then all amounts deposited with the

County Treasurer including but not limited to the ten per cent theretofore paid by him shall, without further notice or demand, be irrevocably forfeited by the purchaser and shall be retained by the County Treasurer as liquidated damages and the agreement to purchase shall be of no further effect.
