There will be a finish line and an epic after-party with food, celebratory beverages, and live music waiting for them as the final friend (or tired individual!) crosses the line at Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park in Oyster Bay, each team member hav ing completed a “leg” of five to seven miles (and the indi viduals, the whole fifty!) on some of the most picturesque (and hilly!) sections of Long Island. If successfully coordi nating a journey like that isn’t an accomplishment in and of itself, there are awards to be had for those who do it the fastest, and for those who do it with the most spirit.

9/11 ceremonies planned for TOBAY Beach

The Nassau County Legisla ture’s Minority Caucus has taken steps to help ease the tax burden of our County’s income-eligible senior citizens and disabled home owners. The legislation, which was filed last week, would nearly double the maximum income eli gibility levels of seniors and those who are living on a fixed income. County Legislator Arnold Drucker (D-Plainview), who helped to introduce the bill in leg islation, said the measure would benefit those who are most in need.

The Town of Oyster Bay invites residents to join them at the Town’s annual September 11th Memorial Ceremony scheduled for Thursday, September 8,at 7:00 p.m. at TOBAY Beach. “This year marks the 21st anni versary of the tragic events of Sep tember 11th, 2001, and to honor those we have lost we invite all residents to join us at our annual September 11th Memorial Cere mony. This remembrance cere mony features music, religious readings, a light tribute, and a reading of the names inscribed on the Town’s 9/11 wall,” said Supervisor Saladino. “We will also unveil new names inscribed on the Town’s ‘Walls of Honor,’ recognizing those who gave the ultimate sacrifice due to 9/11 related illness.”

On Sunday, September 25, hundreds of runners from Long Island and the surround ing metro area will wake up early and pile themselves into a vehicle with seven of their friends. The trunk will be filled with water, Gatorade, bananas, and salty, crunchy snacks (possibly a few mini bottles of Fireball for the rowdier groups!). The desti nation? Jones Beach. It won’t be a usual day at the beach with friends, though. Those eight buddies will be playing a strange variation of leapfrog between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. on a northward, winding, 50-mile, eight-station journey to… another beach. Not to be left out, a small hand ful of runners will do some thing even more wild; they will not have seven of their friends join them on this grand expe dition, but rather, they will start as individuals at 7:00 a.m. and run the entire fifty miles solo with a doable-but-aggres sive 9-hour cutoff!

Plant 2 is nearing completion and is expected to be operational this fall. Fresh granular activated carbon is pumped into GAC vessels housed inside of the under construction Plant 2.

Water treatment plant nearing completion

“In anticipation and preparation for the future needs of the District, this transformation of Plant 2 into a facility we can use at any point throughout the year was made to continue our mission of making need ed, long-lasting investments through out the community,” said PWD Commissioner Amanda Field. “We are proud and thankful for all on our team who have continued to take an aggressive stance in the construction of this project to ensure that we cre ate the best facility possible to serve the current and future residents of the POB community.”

In August 2020, the New York State Health Department finalized regu lations establishing maximum con taminant levels (MCL) for emerging compounds 1,4-dioxane, PFOA and PFOS. This action made New York the first state in the country with an enforceable MCL for 1,4-dioxane.

Since construction started in November 2021, the Plainview Water District (PWD) has been working to construct a year-round treat ment facility to continue to treat for emerging contaminants at its Plant 2 site on Donna Drive in Plainview. Throughout the summer, the District, its contractors, and engineers have made significant progress on the building, with all of its components nearing completion. This facility, which is scheduled to come online this fall, is repurposing treatment equipment used to complete a tem porary system installed in 2020, which ensured the district remained ahead of the regulatory timelines for emerging contaminant treatment established by the New York State Department of Health without the need for a compliance deferral.

“We have the best people in the industry working on this proj ect and the critical design aspects that allowed us to begin treating for emerging contaminants ahead of compliance deadlines while also look ing at the future needs of the facil ity is quite remarkable,” said PWD Commissioner Andrew Bader “We’re proud that, despite mounting chal lenges, this project is down the home stretch and will soon be a fixture in the District’s water supply and treat ment infrastructure for generations to come.”ThePlainview Water District has six AOP systems currently up and running, which is the most of any water provider on Long Island. To help alleviate the costs associated with constructing the new systems, the District has been awarded nearly $27.6 million in infrastructure grant funding from New York State to con struct the necessary AOP treatment facilities with additional new funding applications in the works as addi tional grant monies have been made available.

Attention students!

To ensure the District was ahead of the compliance curve with the new regulation, it embarked on an capital plan and installed a temporary, lim ited-use treatment system—contain ing both AOP and GAC. Knowing a permanent facility was needed so the treatment equipment could be used throughout the year, the District and its engineers specifically designed the original system in a way that the sys tems components would seamlessly integrate into the upgraded facility.

“The concerted efforts of our team and the progress in the construc tion of this state-of-the-art facility, despite the supply chain delays we have experienced, is a testament to the Plainview Water District’s ded ication to the POB community,” said PWD Chairman Marc Laykind. “While there is still work ahead of us to complete the project, we take an immense amount of pride in the work our staff and engineers have been able to accomplish during this challenging period of time. We are excited to complete these significant improvements to a seasonal plant that has been treating for emerging contaminants since 2020, so that it will be a part of our everyday water supply infrastructure for decades to come.”This new state-of-the-art treat ment facility will house treatment equipment necessary for the removal of 1,4-dioxane from the groundwa ter, including an advanced oxidation process (AOP) system and granular activated carbon (GAC) filters. As construction is still on-going, many necessary steps for completion are currently underway. Recently, the AOP reactors were installed at the site as well as the conclusion of most of the interior piping. The PWD antic ipates that Plant 2 will start up and begin quality assurance and all of the necessary approvals with the New York State Health Department this fall with the plant being fully opera tional shortly thereafter.

Students participating in Hicksville Public School District’s Extended School Year program recently took a break from learning and enjoyed two specialStartingvisitors.theday off on August 3, stu dents were excited to meet a member of the Hicksville Fire Department who shared day-to-day activities of a fire fighter. The students learned about the importance of fire safety and what to do in emergency situations. After the pre sentation, the students were invited to tour the fire truck that was parked near the front entrance of the school. In the afternoon on the same day, the students had a visit with a six-yearold bearded collie named Nella which brought many smiles. The therapy dog has been trained and certified through Pet Partners and gave the students a wonderful afternoon “brain break.” The Extended School Year program is designed for students with 12-month Special Class recommendations which is a full day of learning and incorpo rates enrichment activities that offer students a fun and rewarding summer experience.

Bethpage students in grades 3–5 practiced their high kicks during Golden Girl for a Day.

Kickline hosts Golden Girl For A Day program

Members of the Golden Girls led future kickline prospects in cheer routines during the Golden Girl for a Day clinic.

Members of Bethpage High School’s Golden Girls varsity kickline team showed young students how to be a Golden Girl.

Eighty-seven Bethpage students from grades K-8 put themselves in the shoes of Bethpage High School’s varsity kickline team, the Golden Girls, on Aug. 19. The team hosted a special one-day summer clinic, Golden Girl for a Day, in the Bethpage High School gymnasium to connect with young, aspiring kickline members and to help raise money for their trip to nationals this upcoming school year. For $35, each student that attend ed received a golden girl T-shirt and lunch. Throughout the morning, the students were split into groups based on their grade level and worked directly with the Golden Girls. They learned the team’s warmup, some favorite dance styles and had fun practicing a short routine.“Ilove getting to show them how we function as a team and I hope they learn what being a Golden Girl really is like,” said Julia Nartowicz, Bethpage High School varsity kickline co-captain. “We want them to have fun and have the best day.”

“Our region’s high cost of living can make it tremendously challenging for seniors and disabled homeowners make ends meet,” said Solages. “By making the senior citizens and persons with limited income and disabilities property tax exemptions available to more home owners, we are providing vital support for our most financially vulnerable res idents.”County Legislator Debra Mule, who also helped introduce the new bill, said “as a lawmaker, I am committed to doing everything in my power to make it easier for senior citizens and disabled homeowners who are living on a fixed income to stay on Long Island and in the communities where they have estab lished deep roots and relationships. We should immediately take full advantage of this opportunity to deliver meaning ful tax relief to thousands of Nassau County homeowners.”

The Ocean to Sound 50 Mile Relay is a classic event for the Greater Long Island Running Club. This year, it has earned an even longer name – The Ocean to Sound 50 Mile Relay for Survivors of Domestic Violence Presented by PSEG Long Island. PSEG Long Island has gen erously signed on as a new presenting sponsor this year to help make sure the event will flourish. IvyRehab Network provides physical therapy and other rehabilitative services in many loca tions across Long Island and has once again returned to sponsor the event and chat with partygoers. Not to miss the promise of a good party, the owner and general manager of CycleBar of Hun tington (opening Winter 2023) have also chosen to sponsor the Relay and will be at Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park to cheer finishers on and talk about the benefits of cross-training. In preparing for Ocean to Sound this year, Race Director Bob Sherman and GLIRC General Manager Suzanne Nel son wanted to serve a charity sector that the Greater Long Island Running Club has never facilitated funding for before. They did some research and saw the statistics for domestic violence on Long Island. While reading, they noticed that incidents have been exac erbated exponentially by the pandemic. They carefully chose the organization Brighter Tomorrows, Inc, a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit, to be the charitable benefi ciary of this event. Brighter Tomorrows has been in existence since 1986, and provides a hotline, emergency shelter, and legal services for survivors right here on Long Island. Getting others excited about running is one of GLIRC’s main goals. Serv ing others through charitable works is another. Suzanne took on the role of managing the organization in June and one of her main goals for the Club is to facilitate even more funding to the local charities that need it most. Real izing that she could make all of those things happen at once, Suzanne talked to Bob, and they have incorporated the option of participant fundraising into this year’s Ocean to Sound. If teams can raise $1600 and solo runners can raise $200 for Brighter Tomorrows (almost triple their entry fees, respectively), they will be refunded their entry fee by the race. As teams and individuals tell their families, friends, and strang ers why they’re running, they will get others interested in the sport and open their hearts to serving others.

The Club has a bin in their Club house located at 101 Dupont St. #24, Pla inview, NY 11803 for anyone who wishes to drop off donations before Ocean to Sound. There will be collection bins for Brighter Tomorrows shelters at the party area of the race on September 25, and everyone is encouraged to bring something with them to donate.

Ocean to Sound Relay Meg Norris - Editor@GCnews.com

The price will increase two weeks before event on September 11, and there will be a final increase for those who register on race day at Jones Beach. Ocean to Sound was designed to show off the natural beauty that Long Island holds. This year, it will do exactly that, but it will also show off the natural beauty of the Long Island running com munity, coming together to raise funds for local families who need a loving hand.

Suzanne and Bob took the opportu nity to visit the Executive Director of Brighter Tomorrows, Dolores Kordon (at an undisclosed location to protect families, employees, and volunteers). With them, they bought a big box of blankets leftover the Club’s 2018 Rob’s Run. Dolores told them that when fam ilies in crisis seek emergency shelter, they often leave their homes in the middle of the night with little else but their children, and the clothing on their backs, while an abusive partner is out of the home and detained by law enforce ment. The shelters are always in need of blankets, infant/toddler clothing, and especially in need of diapers.

“It makes it hard for people with disabilities not having these accessible services,” said Brzezinski. “This means tough commutes to work or school on a daily basis and missed opportunities due to inaccessible train stations and taxiSheservices.”added that our healthcare sys tem needs to be upgraded, with things like better equipped examination tables in doctor’s offices and better overall diagnostic such as mammograms and sonograms.“Everyday we’re fighting hard to resolve these advocacy issues in areas like medical care and transportation. These are things that most people take for granted but can be a real barrier for those living with disabilities.”

In order for the new bill to pass, it must be approved by the majority cau cus in legislation.

There has been a lot of progress in the area of catering to Americans with disabilities, but one local advocate from Levittown thinks more can be done on thisTheresafront.

Brzezinski, director of plan ning for the LICIL (Long Island Center for Independent Living) in Levittown, said support for Americans with disabil ities has come a long way but the job is not yet “Consideringcomplete. that the Americans with Disabilities Act turned 32 this year, I think we’ve definitely made progress on this front but we still have a ways to go,” said Brzezinski. “Every decision that we make here at the Center is in regards to people with disabilities and trying to improve their lives. We are trying our best to create a more acces sible and equitable society for them as a whole.”TheLICIL has a cadre of direct ser vices to help people on Long Island who are living with a disability. These services are implemented m on a systemic level with local policies that include housing guidance benefits peer advocacy support programs and even equipment loans.

The newly proposed bill coincides with a legislative package that State Governor Kathy Hochul signed on August 8 to help expand eligibility for property tax exemptions. The bill pro vides financial resources for homeown ers 60 years and older to help them with emergency repairs and for first-time homebuyers.NassauCounty Legislator Carrie Solages, who co-introduced the tax exemption bill, said the region’s high cost of living can make it challenging for those living on a fixed income.

“We’ve been here since 1980 focus ing on issues like gaps in our health care system, our diagnostic systems and more recently things like Uber and other mobility service providers.” She said that on Long Island, there are currently no options for people with disabilities for ride-share services like Uber or Lyft.

Day 6 of our BoatBikeTours bike trip from Bruges to Amsterdam proves to be the absolute highlight (out of many) and not just for the iconic attractions (spoiler alert: wind mills!), but the serendipitous experi ences that are the essence of travel. We set out for this day’s ride, 35 miles from Dordrecht to Vianen, rid ing along a berm that looks down on the river where we can see our ship, the Princesse Royal, sailing along on the left while on the right, just behind a row of houses, we see windmills. We soon come to Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage site where you can see one of the best collections of these centuries old windmills (the name literally means children’s dike). I always thought of windmills as industrial engines to grind grain or saw wood, and windmills had that function in Holland as well, but in the mid-1700s, Holland used wind mills as pumps to drain water to cre ate farm land that otherwise would have been below sealevel. They began by reclaiming two huge patches of land with a system of canals, dykes and windmills to pump water out. Methods changed over time, with the addition of steam engines, electric pumps, that are in a race to take the water out of reclaimed land. But it is expected that this place will eventu ally succumb to the sea and be below sea level. (Like Venice, see the wind millsThenow!).Dutch have been building hydraulic works for the drainage of land for agriculture and settlement since the Middle Ages and have continued to the present day. And these windmills’ most critical task was the ongoing water drainage because 26 percent of The Netherlands is below sea level. Each year, 5 trillion gallons of water must be pumped out to avoid flooding the low-lying parts of the Netherlands.

Kinderdijk is an enchanting place - like a Dutch painting come to lifeand after giving us a good amount of time to explore on our own, we get back on the bikes and follow the trail through this entire expanse to contin ue on our way to Schoonhoven. We bike to where we are having lunch – a delightful market and a marvelous shop, which usually has tables outside. But they are doing construction so we sit at tables in the barn, with cows, goats, rabbit, lambs. (Unexpected!).Rainisexpected and sure enough, it comes in like clockwork (1 pm) as a furious downpour with thunder and wind. We are cozy inside with the cows and goats. (I’m just so grateful the rain waited until after we visited Kinderdijk.)Righton time, the thunderstorm passes, but more is expected, so our leaders decide not to offer the option of the longer ride (we were looking forward to riding through peoples’ backyards, as our leader, Arnold Thurko, described), and so set out.

Free City of Vianen After dinner, we walk off the ship and our leader, Corrie Stein, guides us on a tour of of Vianen, delighting us with her storytelling. Vianen, she says, calls itself a “free town,” by which I take to mean they are liber tarians, resistant to national author ity, like paying taxes, and not too welcoming to outsiders. “The city is proud of being a free town.” She points out other aspects of culture: “Dutch symmetry”. “People will have two of the same planters for symmetry/balance” and the tradition of keeping curtains open (so others can see how nice it is inside).

Most villages have a main square. Vianen – being so independent, I guesshas a boulevard instead. Napoleon made a road from Paris to Amsterdam and armies and Napoleon came here (& Dordrecht) and drank red wine.At the Town Hall, Corrie explains that the ground does not support tall towers, and there is not a lot of stone to build with, so it is very prestigious to build with natural stone instead of brick. On the chimney on top of the Town Hall we see a stork nest – Corrie says the story that associates storks with deliver ing babies comes from Dutch tradition. On the outside of the apothecary, there is a bust of a taste tester “to show the medicine was safe.”

Corrie and Arnold also help those who need to get a COVID test before trav eling back to the US make the appoint ment (an extremely efficient system from Spoedtest.nl in Amsterdam) and helping us organize for our departure. This is an ideal trip especially if you are traveling on your own, if you are new to biketouring, or with a family or just want a relaxing, incredibly scenic and interesting ride. The scheduling, route, itinerary, tours and excursions are excellent – and I especially love how our ship in most cases docks right at the town so we can walk off and visit.

We’ve all heard plenty about our gut mi crobiome and how important it is to good health. What you may not have heard is that exercise may be as important as any probiotic to build a good gut microbiome. Just what is our microbiome? Our gut microbiota starts with birth and affects functions throughout the body. Literally trillions of bacteria live in our digestive tract and play an important role in our health. Of the thousands of species of gut microbes that live inside us, some are healthy -- and some areThenot.good gut bac teria break down food, response.andsity,beengutway,proves.bad,goodWhenourvitaminsmanufactureandtrainimmunesystem.wehavemorebacteriathanourhealthimInthesameimbalancesinbacteriahavelinkedtoobemooddisordersalteredimmuneWeknowabal anced, healthy diet that includes high-fi ber and fermented foods (sauerkraut, miso, kefir, kimchi, kombucha, yogurt) can help our gut bacteria thrive. Foods high in fiber -- like raspberries, arti chokes, green peas, broccoli, chickpeas, lentils, beans, whole grains, bananas and apples -- help good gut bacteria grow. Other helpful foods include chicory root, leeks, onions, garlic, asparagus, whole wheat, spinach, oats and soybeans. Two studies at the University of Illinois found evidence that exercise can change the composition of microbes in the gut. In the first study, scientists at the U of I and Mayo Clinic transplanted fecal material from exercised and sedentary mice into the colons of sedentary germ-free mice, which had been raised in a sterile facility and had no microbiota of their own. They found recipients of the exercised mouse microbiota had a higher proportion of microbes that produce butyrate, a shortchain fatty acid that promotes healthy in testinal cells, reduces inflammation and generates energy.

One person can milk the 80 cows in an hour. The cows all have com puter IDs – when their head is inserted, the computer knows the cow, how many kilos and type of food pellets every cow needs. Each cow is milked 300 days of the year and produces 30 liters of milk a day. The milk, just five minutes old, goes to the cheese-making factory. “The dif ference between farmer cheese and fac tory is the farmer is not allowed to pasteurize milk.

At Muiden, we take a bit of a detour to see Amsterdam Castle Muiderslot, one of the oldest and best preserved castles in the Netherlands. The castle was built around 1285 and has a long and turbulent history. It forms part of the Defense Line of Amsterdam and the New Dutch Waterline, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It has been a museum since 1878.The castle is sur rounded by gardens (muiderslot.nl). We set out again for Amsterdam, our end point, but the option to take the longer route is taken away because of concern for a severe rainstorm. We ride fast to get to the ship before the rain, meet the ship and sail into Amsterdam, where it is already raining. We are docked on the opposite shore from Amsterdam’s city center, but Amsterdam is so bike/pedestrian friendly, the city offers free ferries that runWeconstantly.literally step out of where the Princesse Royal is docked and walk a few steps to the ferry to Amsterdam’s Central Station and the historic city center. So I hop on one to go into the his toric center for a walk-about in the rain before our gala, farewell dinner.

Where the historic castle used to stand today there is a water tower – the first in Netherlands to be made of con crete – which turns out to be an icon of Vianen.Shealso points to a tree – the Queen Wilhelmia tree. “The House of Orange was depending upon one small girl to keep the house going – would she stay alive? Communities planted trees of hope. The House of Orange had one child – Queen Juliana – who had four daughters.” Breukelein Bridge In the morning of Day 7, our last day of cycling, our ship, the Princesse Royal, sails from Vianen to Breukelein, which I learn (most delightedly) that this is where the first settlers of Brooklyn came from. (Corrie jokes that it has its own Breukelen bridge; we stop at for photos). We will bike from here to Amsterdam (New York, you will remember, was originally New Amsterdam) – our last stop on our boat/bike tour. The path from Breukelein along the River Feckt that goes up to Amsterdam is gorgeous, dotted with literal mansions built by textile magnates. “400 years ago this was an important place- the wealthy from Utrecht and Amsterdam would flee the city in summer –heat, diseases - and built impressive summer houses,” Corrie tells us. They were built over a 400 year peri od and French destroyed many and many were replaced, so they have differ ent styles. Many have impressive gar dens and tea houses. It is reminiscent of Newport’s “cottages.”

Eighteen months later, President Kennedy would be shot and killed in public view, witnessed by an entire nation while his wife, now suddenly liv ing and breathing in the midst of a hor rific nightmare, was reduced to fran tically scrambling over the back seat of a presidential limo to an unknown destination, to be anywhere but where she was in her fierce effort to flee from the gruesome scene of raw carnage the results of which were still occurring right in front of her. Jacqueline Kennedy had abandoned any sense of propriety in her effort to escape from the shock that came from a well-aimed shot from a far off window by a driven and deluded man who was trained by the United States Marine Corps to shoot straight. A vivid and unimaginable nightmare that the entire nation would share had suddenly become real. In retrospect, I realize why the black and white film of Marilyn Monroe sing ing “Happy Birthday” is so often shown on TV, as it is perhaps an ideal image of a time and place on public display that soon would be no more. Ironically, I would eventually see the entire evening as a final act, a last look at the end of yet another brief historic era; a separate and brief time unto itself. I would come to see the birthday event as being the calm before the fierce storm of the mid-sixties, rather than it being what the presenters had attempt ed to project: the dawning of a new age, one that was not to be for this president who in this moment in time seemed almostCertainlyimmortal.forme, it just might have been the very last moment I would feel so upliftingly optimistic about the future. This enticing lure and all that it projected was Camelot; those who later applied the term to the Kennedy admin istration got it exactly right. On our way home, back to Brooklyn and the Plaza Street station, there was a lot to talk about. The three of us were like old pals by the time we said our goodbyes and went our separate ways. But, like Camelot itself, I would never see Michael Taylor or his father again.

WRITER’S CORNER 3 Discovery202226,August

Mr. Taylor had already noted dis appointedly that the president’s wife Jackie was not on the dais as she was in Paris visiting her sister. Then all the lights went out in Madison Square Garden except for a single brightly lit spot light that was focused on an area to my immediate left, and everyone fell silent for as with perfect timing, Marilyn Monroe stepped into that light and instantly filled it with the power of her sensual allure.

A California dancing troupe was the next act, moving into a “West Side Story” type of dance routines that con veyed the impression that “This is the Sixties” and we are moving forward with panache into a totally new sense of creative dancing reflective of our confi dence in this new age of promise. Peter Lawford clearly implied that we in the audience were the fortunate few to witness and share in the cer tainty that one of the reasons for our heady optimism was the presence of this vibrant president who was now poised to take us there. Then he came back to his emcee role, now assuming a sprightlier attitude as he got set to introduce a “special guest’ who was not listed in your playbills. He placed an emphasis on the word ‘not’ as if it was meant as ‘decidedly’ not. There was a pixyish smile on his face as if we were now all in on his little joke.

As we moved down a slight ramp that led to our new seats, I saw Peter Lawford, the president’s brother-in-law who acted as the emcee in front of the microphone. With his casual manner of introduction, he created the impres sion that the audience was not merely attending a formal political event, but more that we were all there to have a goodAftertime.a few words of welcome that I thought sincere, he introduced Jimmy Durante as the opening act. At first, I thought this an odd choice since Durante was a voice from the past, as opposed to the general theme of the eve ning’s agenda which was clearly futur istic in its theme of our coming into a new age of promise. Jimmy Durante was funny in much the same way that I thought Jackie Gleason was, both of them being biggerthan-life personalities who were enter taining without giving the appearance of saying practiced lines written by others, but simply by seeming to be themselves. I felt like Jimmy Durante was one of us and he seemed genuinely happy to be there. Maybe Durante was there for con trast I thought. I recalled reading that he was one of the entertainers who played a piano in a Coney Island dance hall back in the early decades, and would have lived through the Depression years during his heyday on radio and in Hollywood. Everything that occurred prior to the onset of the Second World War seemed so much further back in time than it actually was, almost as if the nineteen twenties and thirties were in a different centu ry. Durante, whose presence I enjoyed, reminded me of a neighborhood guy who made good, so I was very receptive to his distinctive style.

In a flash, the atmosphere in the arena completely changed. After a moment to let everyone take it all in, a moment wherein her presence was as effective in stilling the crowd as was Brother Edward’s whistle in St. Teresa’s schoolyard, Marilyn Monroe’s presence completely silenced the crowd into a frozen state of awed compliance. She then slowly slinked her way up toward the dais taking her time, noticeably conscious of her lurid sexual capacity to entice. The single spotlight followed Marilyn Monroe who was enlaced in a sparkling, clinging gown that I later read had to be sewn on as she stood, a gown that with its shimmery glitter at first gave me a hopeful first impression that she had decided to appear stark naked. Suddenly the event had all the trappings of a Bachelor Party. Marilyn Monroe eventually did come up to the microphone in a manner that perhaps only Cleopatra might have got ten away with, literally taking every one’s breath away. She seemed like a new kind of creature, so remarkable in her appeal that I don’t recall hear ing a sound of applause when she first appeared as much as an aura of stunned silence that lingered from a rapt audi ence, who in their shocked condition, managed in their moment of rapture to completely lose control of their vocal chords.When she breathlessly sang her now-famous “Happy Birthday” song, Marilyn Monroe was right in front of me.Here I am I thought, living in a brand new world primed for a glorious future, full of glitter and promise. I knew that I was not alone with this thought. I am sure that the Greeks have a word for such feelings, and furthermore, how such optimistic undertakings are gener ally punished by the vengeful gods who are always on the alert to recognize the overreach of such hubris upon the part of mere Futuremortals.events would seem to sup port this assumption, as three months later Marilyn Monroe would choose to die by her own hand, her untimely death splayed across the front pages of newspapers across the world, spewing random commentary on how her glam orous life style might have led her to this anguished and bitter end. I was conflicted as I stared at her picture on the front page of the Daily News, a picture taken from their file that showed her in an unattractive light, looking like a normal person who had that just woken up look as some report er had put it, a person who evidently had deep-seated unresolved problems. A person, who as the reporter further noted, could not get a restful night’s sleep. I dismissed that picture from my recollection preferring to always see her in her full dimension at that singu lar moment and place in time.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

And speaking of misleading Social Se curity-related “news” stories, sometimes they are so downright silly that I hope most of my readers can understand that they are totally bogus. For example, there were lots of re ports -- all from the same questionable source -- on the day I’m writing this (in early August) that carried headlines sim ilar to this one I saw: “Biden authorizes border patrol agents to hand out Social Security cards to ‘illegal immigrants’ crossing the Mexican border.” Oh, yeah. And did you know agents are also giving undocumented workers a Wells Fargo Visa card, inter est-free mortgage loans, a new car and a box of chocolates? I mean, c’mon folks, get real. This isn’t happening, and I hope all my readers are smart enough to real ize Ithat.know some folks like to think of the federal government as this one huge, monolithic entity in which all employees are just cookie-cutter bureaucrats fol lowing the mantra of an appointed lead er. That’s just not how it works. There are hundreds of federal agencies, each with their own staff and with their own mis sion. For example, you obviously would not go to the Department of Agriculture to file your federal tax return; you would go to the Internal Revenue Service. You would not go to the FBI to try to get a na tional park pass; you would go to the Na tional Park Service. And you would not go to the U.S. Customs and Border Pa trol to get a Social Security number; you would go to the Social Security Adminis tration. (And by the way, if you entered this country illegally and you tried to get a Social Security card from the SSA, you simply wouldn’t get one!) If you have a Social Security question, Tom Margenau has a book with all the answers. It’s called “Social Security: Sim ple and Smart.” You can find the book at www.creators.com/books, or look for it on Amazon or other book outlets.

COLA increase is built into the Social Se curity benefit formula for future Social Security recipients. The next “big change” the newspaper hyped is the routine and annual increase in the wage base -- the amount of income subject to the Social Security payroll tax. That limit is $147,000 this year and will automatically go up next year (based on increases in the average national wage) -- as it has gone up every year for the past 30 years or so. Of course, this change doesn’t affect most people reading this column. It only affects those who are still working and making more than $147,000 per year. So, if you’re in that boat, I suppose you could classify this as a “big change.” But it is absolutely not a surprise or an unexpect ed change.Thethird “big change” the newspaper story talked about is the increase in the re tirement age. I mean, c’mon: is this news?

Absolutely not. The law increasing the retirement age from 65 to 67 was passed in 1984. And it’s been gradually phased in over the past 40 years. We have reached the point now where the retirement age is 66 and 6 months for people born in 1957, and those folks will be reaching that “full retirement age” in 2023. But I challenge the editors of that newspaper to find me one reader and potential retiree born in 1957 who didn’t know that was his or her full retirement age. And finally, the fourth “big change” is the increase in the earnings penalty limits for Social Security recipients un der their full retirement age who might be working part time. The limit is cur rently $19,560. For every two dollars you earn over that limit, one dollar is with held from your Social Security benefits. But once again, the update to the limit is an automatic increase that has happened every year for the past 30 years or so. It’s not a big deal. It’s not a big change. And frankly, it’s just not news.

YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY

BY TOM MARGENAU I don’t know how you folks get by with out being scared out of your wits by mis leading Social Security stories you read in newspapers or see online. Because I know the subject so well and because I can de cipher the confusing and sometimes scary Social Security-related muck that’s out there, it doesn’t bother me. But I can see where a Social Security layperson could get worried or fooled by so much of what you see in print or online. Just last week, I wrote a column in which I tried to clarify the points made in a column that had this headline: “Social Security Mistakes That Could Cost You a Fortune.” Almost all the information in that column was rather mundane stuff that most people already know. And even not knowing them wouldn’t have led to a series of fortune-costing mistakes. And just a couple hours after I sub mitted that column to my editors, I was reading the online version of a major na tional newspaper and saw this headline: “Attention seniors: 4 big Social Security changes coming in 2023.” When I first read that headline, even I kind of panicked. I thought: “Oh my gosh! I always stay on top of this Social Security stuff. And I haven’t heard anything about Congress making any big Social Securi ty changes that would go into effect next year!” So, I could only imagine the confu sion and maybe the anxiety such a head line could cause most retirees. But then I opened the story and read it. And guess what? These “big changes” are just routine updates that happen to the Social Security program every year. So, why the provocative and misleading headline? In some ways, I get it. If the newspaper had used the headline, “Rou tine and boring Social Security updates for 2023” -- well, no one would have read that story. But the attention-grabbing “big changes” headline draws people (in cluding me) in. It does work. But it is still misleading.So,what are the “big changes” up coming in 2023? Of course, first, there will be the annual cost-of-living-adjust ment (COLA) in January. And because inflation has been running high, the next COLA will also be high. It’s supposed to be around the 10% mark. Instead of just announcing the up coming COLA, this national newspaper could have done their readers a real service and answered the question ev eryone is asking me. And that question usually goes something like this: “I was planning to wait until I reach my full re tirement age later in 2023 to file for my Social Security. But I want to get the ben efits of this projected big COLA. So, do I have to file for reduced early benefits in 2022 in order to get the 10% increase in my benefits in early 2023?” And the answer is no. If you aren’t getting benefits when the COLA comes out (i.e., in January 2023), the same

If it is sitting for more than 30-60 days, and either not receiving the traffic or any offers, then you must look at your price and make the necessary adjustments.

A look at the current and past market BY A.

Charlyn Fargo is a registered dietitian with SIU Med School in Springfield, Illi nois. For comments or questions, contact her at charfarg@aol.com or follow her on Twitter @NutritionRD. .

With the increase in mortgage interest rates over the last 8 months, properties are not necessarily selling as quickly as they were in the past. Although rates are down the last 4 weeks and just last week slipped again from 5.59% to 5.55% as of August 3rd. Rates are usually pegged to the 10-year Treasury, but the markets generally are the true determiner of rates. They are still considerably higher than the historically lowest rate of 2.5% late in 2021 for a 30-year fixed mortgage. With the current doubling of rates the price of homes has become unaffordable for a vast majority of many consumers local ly and across the U.S. Even though rates are still historically lower and incomes have increased, (but purchas ing power has stayed the same for the majority factoring in inflation over the last 40 years as per Pew Research Center). More importantly, the actual purchase price is far greater and in some cases as much as 5-10 times high er than they were in 2000. To provide some perspective, the median price of a home in New York in 1940 was $45,700, in 1980 it was $90,300 and in 2000 it was $148,700. In the past and present, inflation has always been caused by the Fed with easy money, causing budget deficits, Nixon taking the U.S off of a Gold Standard, turning us into a fiat currency, and Keynesian economic policy and market psycholo gy, during the 1970s. Looking around your local neigh borhoods and you can verify and see how high the prices are today and have truly stretched the pocketbooks of many who have left the market. They are staying put in a rental or rel ative’s home for the time being to wait for either rates to further decrease, saving for a larger downpayment, or prices to ease and stabilize. Due to the severe lack of inventory on Long Island and the tri-state areas, prices won’t be crashing anytime soon. However, I think we will be heading into a more normalized and hopeful ly balanced demand is still fairly strong if your home is priced accordingly for those who have the income, credit, and down payment to purchase. I believe it will take several years for housing inventory to become normal again and that will depend on those who are real sellers and decide to put their homes on the market as well as on developers building more homes. Median prices of sold homes in June were $720,000 up 11.80% compared with June 2021 when the price was $644,000. In Nassau County, there were 1,261 closed sales transactions and 1,250 pending transactions reported in June 2022, following 1,146 closed and 1,242 pending transactions reported in May 2022. The OneKey MLS Regional Area, covering all areas, Nassau, Suffolk, Queens, and the 5 Boroughs of NYC and a portion upstate New York, reported a closed median sale price of $615,000 in June 2022, representing a 7.90% increase as compared to the reported $570,000 in June 2021. Across the regional coverage area, there were 6,056 closed residential sales reported in June 2022, which is 15.80% more closed transactions than the 5,230 reported the month prior. Banks are tending to become a bit more conservative in their appraisals, so what has sold in the last 3-6 months, may be adjusted based on future anal ysis of the market going forward. Just because you see information on the major sites, don’t get fooled by think ing that is what you will receive when finally decid ing to sell. No one from those sites has seen your home inside and the pric es provided give a broad view of prices in a general locality. Zillow had got ten stuck with 1000 homes from overpaying through their IBuying model; as no one visited the homes and they just made offers, site on seen. They lost $230,000,000 + and laid off 25% of their staff in 2021; so I guess their Zestimate in pricing homes isn’t a very accurate tool to be relied upon. They are no longer in the house buying market. One can always rely on our local MLS as the number one most accu rate and trusted source for information to make a clearer and more concise determination of what is occurring in our local Nassau, Suffolk, Queens, and other areas of the NYC and 5 Borough markets. Analysis and prices are very clear when determining what is hap pening. So pricing your home is more accurately accomplished when using the MLS statistics and not through the Zestimate model as it lost them a sub stantial amount of money!

A: Knowing when to refrigerate nut butters can be tricky. Your best bet is to read the label. If it says “refrigerate after opening,” you need to do that. If you buy all-natural peanut butter, you’ll want to store jars in the refrigerator. Processed brands of peanut butter are made to have a long shelf life, thanks to the addition of stabilizers like palm oil and hydroge nated oils, so once opened, they’re fine to store in a cool, dry cupboard. The Na tional Peanut Board says opened jars of commercial processed peanut butter can be stored in a cupboard for two to three months. After that, they recommend stor ing jars in the refrigerator, which extends shelf life by another three to four months. Unopened jars will last six to nine months in the pantry; however, be sure to check expiration dates.

And many in olden times believed that it was the heat of brilliant Sirius, coupled with that of the sun, that produced the scorching summertime temperatures -- the “caniculares dies” or “dog days” as the Romans called them. Over time, the link between the late summer heat and the Dog Star -- and the phrase “dog days” -- became ingrained into popular culture.Granted, Sirius is nearly twice as hot as our sun but, at a distance of some 51 trillion miles, the heat we receive from it is negligible. However, such ideas die hard; in fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if some people still believe its connection today, despite it being debunked more than 20 centuries ago by the Greek astronomer Geminus: “It is generally believed that Sirius produces the heat of the Dog Days,” he wrote, “but this is an error, for the star merely marks a season of the year when the Sun’s heat is the greatest.” Nowadays, if you wish to watch the heliacal rising of Sirius, you must do so in August.

nia, the positions of celestial objects shift slightly. But if we could see stars in broad daylight, we could now enjoy those of winter -- including brilliant Sirius -- shining all day long. Of course, if you’d like to see Sirius in a dark sky, you’ll have to wait a few months until the sun no longer appears in the same part of the sky. That occurs during the winter months and, when it does, Sirius will appear as a sparkling diamond rising in the east at sunset. With or without Sirius in our sky, summertime is hot. So, enjoy the warmth while it lasts because, as sure as you’re reading my words, we’ll all soon be whining about the cold! Visit Dennis Mammana at dennis mammana.com.

“We have company,” I said to my husand.“Are they at the door?” he wondered. “No, they’re on the lawn,” I replied. I pointed out the window to the area down by the lakefront. Fanned out across the grass were two dozen Canada geese happily munching on our lush, green lawn. My husband growled, grabbed a pot and a metal spoon and went running down to the lake, banging on the pot like a lunatic to scare the geese away. But apparently, they knew he was all bang and no bite, and they simply strolled a little farther down the lawn away from the madman with the metal drum. It’s not that we don’t like to commne with nature. We had moved onto a lake, after all. But the geese didn’t want to commune. They want ed to eat grass and poop all over our lawn. One goose, maybe two we would accommodate. But an army of geese was not welcome. They were like your worst neighbor nightmare. They came over uninvited, made a lot of noise and left a big mess. It was, quite literally, Poopmageddon.Ilookedback outside and saw that my husband had finally succeeded in getting the geese to fly the coop. But when he returned, I could tell he’d had enough of these particular scare tactics. “Honey, I need your help with this,” he said. “You’re really good at finding solutions to things. Can you take over this goose thing and figure out how we can get rid of them for good?” “Yes!” I said emphatically. “I will take this on. I will become Commander of the Goose Droppings!” He stared at me. “Whatever,” he finally said. “Just find a way to get rid of the geese.” I wondered, at that moment, not why I had decided so enthusiastically to volunteer to take over this impossible project, but why I was limiting myself to the title of commander. It was a big responsibility, and I thought I should at least appoint myself a general or even an admiral. “Goose Admiral” had a much more authoritative ring to it than “commander.” Certainly, it would com mand the respect of anyone who heard it, even though the geese wouldn’t prob ably give two honks. Regardless of what I called myself, I still had the problem of getting rid of the geese. I asked around, but no one else seemed to have a good solution, so I perused the internet and found a com pany called Goose-Be-Gone. It sounded promising.“Hi,this is Tracy Beckerman,” I said on the phone. “I’m the Goose Admiral, and I’m looking for help getting rid of some geese on our property.” “You’re the what?” said the guy on the other end. “The Goose Admiral. I’m in charge of getting rid of our geese.” He laughed. I frowned. It wasn’t quite the respectful reaction I was look ing“Well,for. “Well,“Admiral,”General...”Iinterrupted.Admiral,Ihave an army I can give you to help you with your mis sion,” he said. “What kind of army?” I asked. “They are an army of trained border collies that will chase, harass and work to keep geese off your property.” “Sounds great! How does it work?” I wondered.“Wedo randomly scheduled daily dog service visits until the geese learn that the area is not safe.” “How long does it take?” “Several weeks or months.” “Wow! That’s a long time!” I exclaimed. “Oh, wait. Now I see why it works.”“Why’s that?” he said. “After a few months, the geese fly south for the winter.” Tracy Beckerman is the author of the Amazon Bestseller “Barking at the Moon: A Story of Life, Love, and Kibble,” available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble online!

Dog Days of Summer Week of Aug. 28 -- 2022 As summers go, this one hasn’t been unusually hot here in the Southern California desert, but it’s not over yet! We’ve still got a while before the onset of autumn and, hopefully, the arrival of some cooler temperatures. In the meantime, however, pay close attention and I’ll bet you’ll hear some one refer to this time of year as the “dog days of summer.” One might guess that the term comes from the seemingly lethargic behavior of our canine com panions in the late-summer heat... but then one would be barking up the wrong tree.No, its origin -- like that of many everyday phrases -- lies among the stars.
