Syosset High School’s Student Government sponsored the second annual BravesFest, a community festival with carnival-style booths that raised funds for student activities and the VH-1 Save the Music program. This spring, Syosset High School’s student government sponsored the second annual BravesFest, a community festival that celebrates everything about Syosset schools. Syosset Student Government partnered with the PTA and Syosset Teachers Association to continue the growth of this new tradition, hosting more than 700 community members who enjoyed more than 40 carnival-style booths that were created and run by various student clubs, student groups, classes, athletic teams, PTA units and
STA. The Syosset High School Association of Creative Thespians also conducted a Renaissance Fair while AP students displayed their works. The cross-country/track team hosted a Miles For Smiles 1-mile run during the event, while the girls varsity soccer team mentored elementary student athletes and helped them sharpen their soccer skills on the playing field. The main stage hosted 40 student acts throughout the day while volunteer teachers and administrators played the
$1
role of sitting ducks in the very popular dunk tank. The Syosset Robotics team also displayed their ingenuity with some of their designs. The PTSA operated the concessions. David Steinberg is the adviser to the Syosset High School Student Government. Funds raised through the event went to support the Student Activity Fund and VH-1 Save the Music, which supports youth music education programs.
Oyster Bay Town Councilwoman Rebecca M. Alesia reminds residents that the ‘One Town, One Book: Oyster Bay Reads’ program is underway in the Town of Oyster Bay. Residents of all ages are invited to participate, with this year’s program theme of “Sports and Recreation: Making Reading Your Favorite Sport.” “This national program seeks to challenge communities to read the same book and discuss reactions with friends and families and has been a summertime fixture in the Town for a few years,” Councilwoman Alesia said. “The Town continues to sponsor One Town, One Book, with two clear goals in mind: to promote literacy, and to create a greater sense of community within our Town.” There is still time to download a reading log and submit it as part of the program. Visit the official ‘Oyster Bay Reads’ Facebook page, www.facebook.com/onetownonebookoysterbayreads, or the Town’s website, www.oysterbaytown.com, where participants can “Read Like a Champion” and submit their reading log of five books read during the program. This year’s celebration will culminate with a special Town-wide finale on Thursday, August 11 held at the Bethpage Ice Skating Center at 7 p.m. In addition, the Town-wide finale will feature a public session with TOB Figure skater Joelle Forte, a national competitor and four-time North Atlantic Regional Champion. “We anticipate this year’s program to be a great success as we combine the value of reading with productive and healthy sports and recreation activities,” Councilwoman Alesia said. “For more information visit the Town website, the official ‘One Town One Book’ Facebook page, or by calling my office at (516)-624-6364, and my staff will help you get in contact with your local library in the coming weeks, to inquire about the ways in which they also are taking part in ‘One Town, One Book: Oyster Bay Reads.”

Village School plays patriotic songs for vets, seniors
Members of the string ensemble from Village Elementary School presented a mini concert for residents at The Arbors Assisted Living center.
S.T.O.P. & e-waste collection day The fifth 2016 Household Hazardous Waste Disposal (S.T.O.P.-Stop Throwing Out Pollutants) and third E-Waste (Electronic Waste) Collection dates for Oyster Bay Town residents is scheduled for Saturday, August 13, and will be held at the Town of Oyster Bay’s Department of Public Works, located on the Long Island Expressway Service Road at Exit 43 in Syosset according to Town Councilman Joseph D. Muscarella. At this installment, residents can also drop off unwanted prescription or over-the-counter drugs for disposal. “The S.T.O.P. program is a tremendous source of pride for the Town due to the beneficial effects it has on the environment and the convenience it
brings to residents,” Councilman Muscarella said. “Residents who take advantage of these collection dates for hazardous waste and unwanted prescription & over the counter medication will be provided with a safe method of disposing potentially harmful materials or electronic waste. One of the top priorities of the Oyster Bay Town Board is the protection of Long Island’s underground aquifer system, a vital component to our water supply that is preserved thanks to the ongoing efforts of the S.T.O.P program.” The hours for hazardous waste collection are from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. Residents who would like further information on the S.T.O.P. program can call the Town’s Department of Environmental
Resources at 677-5943. Additionally, the Town offers an informative brochure about the S.T.O.P., e-waste and drug collection programs, including a list of what can be disposed of and the schedule of collection days and locations for 2016. The next S.T.O.P. Collection date will be on Saturday, September 10. Residents or organizations interested in obtaining a free brochure should call or write the Town of Oyster Bay Public Information Office, Oyster Bay Town Hall East, 54 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay, N.Y. 11771 (624-6380). A copy can also be downloaded from the Town’s website, www.oysterbaytown. com.
Prior to the end of the school year, members of the string ensemble from Village Elementary School in Syosset presented a mini concert for residents at The Arbors Assisted Living Center. The student-musicians performed various patriotic songs honoring the many veterans that reside there. They also performed show tunes and classical pieces. “The performance was warmly received,” said teacher and Village School string ensemble Director Linda Carrella. “The residents thought the youth performers were wonderful and had an incredible level of musicianship.” Following the performance, students mingled and enjoyed chatting with residents, even getting a tour of the koi pond. Carrella thanked The Arbors residents and staff for allowing her students to visit and learn how important it is to always care about others. Accompanying the students was Village School staff member Ruth Canzonieri, whose father resides at The Arbors. She remarked that her father, a former violinist, had a smile on his face throughout the performance.

There are 2 key ingredients you should look for in a funeral home.
First, a place that has a staff that: Makes sure they take care of you like family – and have a long history of doing so. They show your loved one the same love you showed them. A staff that will take care of everything, you wonʼt have to do anything but share the love and memories that friends and family bring through that door.
Secondly, a facility that offers the warmth of home: One in which you feel a sense of warmth just like your home. A place in which you will be proud to host your friends and family. This should be a place in which renovations and upgrades are made every year. A facility that is large enough to accommodate all your friends and family. Over 60 years in the making.

Jewish Museum of Greece Honors Thousands of Years of History BY KAREN RUBIN I first became introduced to the concept of Jews in Athens when I meet Vassilas, my Context Travel walking tour guide. He meets me in the district which is known today as Monasteraki, but as we walk through the flea market area, he mentions that it was originally called Yusurum named for a Jewish family of tradesmen who built a store in the area. Athens did not have a “Jewish Quarter” per se, he tells me, sensing my interest, but just a few blocks away, there once were a few Jewish synagogues, only one that is still in use today. (There is also a Holocaust Memorial in a small pocket park there, at the bottom of a street that leads up to the Acropolis.) There is limited information, he tells me, about Jews in Athens during antiquity; most of the Jews who lived
in Greece up until modern times came after the Spanish Inquisition, in1492. He is taking me on Context Travel’s “Everyday Greeks in Ancient Times” walking tour (www.contexttravel.com, info@ contexttravel.com, 800.691.6036), and as and we stand before humanity’s first House of Parliament in the ancient Agora, ancient Athens’ political center, he points out that just off to the side a marble marker was found, indicating where one of the earliest synagogues very likely stood, dating from at least the 3rd

The Athens War Museum - A Walk Through the Pantheon of Ancient Military History. BY TIM CAMPBELL About a half mile from Syntagma Square, the heartbeat of Athens, Greece, sits the giant Athens War Museum, covering 3000 years of military history. This mustvisit museum for military history aficionados and militaria fans features four floors of ancient warfare, ranging from the ancient times of Alexander the Great right through to World War II. Torn by millennia of conflict, Greece has witnessed innumerable battles. Battles it has won and lost against nation states like Macedonia,
the Ottoman Empire, Italy and Germany. Funded by grants from the Greek armed forces and generous donations from individuals and companies, the Athens War Museum is loved by all visitors with even the slightest interest in military history and warfare. My guide during my recent visit, Brigadier General Panagiotis Kaperonis, is a 37-year veteran of the Greek Army. Now 55 years old, Brigadier General Kaperonis was educated at the world famous Gordonstoun Academy in Scotland, and also spent time training at Fort Benning near Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Gordonstoun Academy is where Prince Charles went to school. Designed by scientists, and headed by Professor Thoukidides Valentis, the Athens war museum was built in 1975 and opened that year by the then Greek Minister of Defense, Constantine Tsatsos. This year the museum celebrates its 40th anniversary. This bastion of all things military covers approximately 40,000 square feet, with four floors and a parking garage. An outside area, open to the public, is crammed with First and Second World War artillery and aircraft. The striking outdoor
G O I N G P L A C E S N E A R A N D F A R
exhibition space displays Army, Navy and Air force militaria, including a helicopter, fighter jets, eighteenth century cannons, and several generations of artillery. All the outdoor exhibits are being restored by professionals. When one is completed and returned to the museum, another departs. Each unit takes approximately two to three months for full restoration, the cost supported by grants from the Greek armed forces, depending on which military division the piece is from. See page D3

Jewish Museum of Greece Honors Thousands of Years of History Continued from page D1
When he takes me into the astonishingly fine museum at the Agora and points out a small decorated ceramic vessel that Socrates, himself, might have used to drink the poison hemlock, he gets me thinking: one of reasons why Socrates was executed by Athens was because he questioned its religious system of 12 gods. Plato, Socrates’ student, later wrote that Socrates said, ‘I hear the voice of a ‘god’ – a ‘demon’ (spirit) in me.” I wondered in that moment whether Socrates had been influenced at all by the Jews of Athens who would have believed in monotheism. After my “Everyday Life in Ancient Greece Tour” with Vassilas , I set out to find the Jewish Museum, indicated by the dot on a map I don’t have a street address, and when I get to what I believe is the corner where it should be, I ask a private security guard who has no idea where it is. But an older gentleman overhears me and walks me around the corner to the Jewish Museum. The Jewish Museum is only recently moved to this downtown location, but it offers a permanent collection and special exhibitions that tell the history of Greek Jews , which I am surprised to learn is the oldest Jewish community in Europe.Indeed, there is a replica of the marble sign from the Agora (the original is in the Agora Museum but not exhibited publicly), that dates from possibly the 5th C BC, which had set me on my quest. Jews came to Greece before the destruction of the First Temple. They were merchants. In Athens, Jews did not live in a Jewish Quarter, like in Corfu, Rhodes or Thessalonki, but lived around Athens, though they tended to live near the synagogue. It is not known how many Jews lived in Greece at its peak – during the Holocaust, archives were burned. But prior to the war, Thessaloniki had 70,000 Jews; there were 29 communities. Today, there are 5,000 Jews living in Greece - 3000 of them in Athens (a tiny number compared to the population). There are nine communities that are most active, with Jewish schools.“It’s a challenge to keep the heritage,” a museum docent tells me. “Many come here and don’t expect fo find a Jewish community.”It is 1:30 pm when I arrive at the Museum, which I discover is only open from 9 am-2:30 pm. So I dash through to see as much as I can before it closes.The exhibits, which offer some fascinating artifacts, trace the history of Jewish settlement in Greece beginning 3 rd C BC. The collection contains more than 10,000 artifacts (some that can only be found here) pertaining to domestic and religious life. The oldest objects are

In 1981, the Yussuroum , Matathias, Bakolas, Association of American Friends was
founded, followed, a little later, by the Association of Friends of the Jewish Museum of Greece, with members of the Jewish Communities of Athens and Thessaloniki. With substantial financial support from the Greek Ministry of Culture and the Associations of its Friends, the old building was renovated and, in late 1997, 20 years after it first opened its doors to the public, the Museum moved to 39 Nikis street, in the center of Athens. The Museum’s collections include more than eight thousand original artifacts, testifying to more than 23 centuries of Jewish presence in Greece. Besides a few objects which Asher Moissis, president of the Jewish Community of Athens, had collected after the war, the core of the initial collection was made up of items that had been returned to Greece by the Bulgarian government, after the establishment of a Communist regime in that country. These included personal effects, jewelry, domestic items, temple objects and documents, which belonged to the Jews of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace and were confiscated after 1941, when the area fell in the Bulgarian zone of occupation. The confiscated items had been meticulously recorded and became the first significant body of artifacts of the collection. This core collection kept growing, mainly through the donations of individuals and communities, initially from the area of Thessaly, the island of Rhodes and the city of Ioannina. Besides rare 17th - 19th century books and publications, a significant number of ritual textiles was assembled, most dating from the Ottoman times (14th-19th centuries), and soon became one of the Museum’s main attractions for both visitors and researchers. In 1984 the Jewish Community of Patras was dissolved for lack of members and the interior of its synagogue, along with its textiles and ritual objects was bequeathed to the Museum. These religious artifacts are extremely significant, invaluable and irreplaceable, since they come, for the most part, from synagogues and communities, which no longer exist, according to the museum’s notes. More donations from individuals and communities from both Greece and abroad continued to pour in, further enriching the collection. The Museum’s relocation to its new premises (1998) brought a renewal of public interest and more donations followed. In general, the Museum has been receiving an average of 250-300 new artifacts every year, since the year 2000.

The Athens War Museum - A Walk Through the Pantheon of Ancient Military History. Continued from page D1 Inside, as we move from floor to floor, Brig.Gen. Kaperonis describes the various wars and battles that his Hellenic nation has been involved with over the centuries. He told me, “The lower floor is understandably the most popular with overseas visitors because it showcases the exploits of Greece’s most famous son and greatest legend, Alexander the Great”. The lower floor contains many copies of priceless relics, the originals being stored in the National Museum next to the Acropolis. There are however, some rare original pieces, such as ancient Greek headgear, displayed in glass cases. These are at least two thousand years old, and some even older. The bronze Corinthian, Hoplite, and Spartan helmets were worn by soldiers dating from the Fifth century B.C. Other interesting artifacts from the period of Alexander the Great include a crossbow and flamethrower. The crossbows were converted into giantsized military hardware and fired at the enemy, no doubt bringing down several soldiers with each strike of their huge and formidable bolts. During sea battles, the crossbow arrows were set alight with pitch and fired at oncoming vessels. Another surprising weapon was the flamethrower. Pitch was set alight in a bronze barrel and blown by bellows against the enemy by ramming an end spike into the opposing ship. Pushing the bellows that blew air into the tube and through holes in the end, allowed the flames to set fire to the enemy’s wooden vessels. One wonders how many ships delivering the flame were accidentally set on fire! Setting advancing ships on fire with
these ancient flamethrowers was a tactic that made Alexander the Great victorious at sea on many occasions. His soldiers would also convert flamethrowers into hand held units that were used to set fire to masses of infantry and buildings. Models of these crossbows and flamethrowers, and the rock hurling catapults, can be seen in glass cases on the ground floor. Other artifacts from the Persian, Peloponnesian, and Spartan wars can be viewed under glass covers. The underground floor also houses many prehistoric relics found during archaeological excavations in the city. Dating back to the Neolithic period, the priceless pieces of flint, obsidian and bone are housed in special cases to protect them from today’s temperatures and dust. Many other pieces date back to the Bronze Age, featuring items from the Minoan, Cycladic and Mycenaean civilizations. However, many of these are copies of the originals from the National museum at the Acropolis. Despite this, I thought this museum would be practically a religious experience for followers of Homer’s Odyssey! The main floor with the entrance has a dual purpose. Showcases displaying World War II uniforms and glass cases are packed full of medals, ribbons and emblems detailing various Greek armed forces over the centuries. The small arms hardware galleries are set up in various parts of the rectangular main floor with models of artillery and transport used in World War II. This is also where entry tickets are purchased. A central atrium on the first floor exhibits statues of famous Greek figures from centuries of Greek history. These sculptures of Generals and mythical

The atrium’s marvelous open air design encourages visitors to wander and take the time to view each statue. Informational plaques describe each protagonist’s place in Greece’s volatile history. The first floor features hardware from World War One and the Balkan Wars. Comprised of small arms and models, these exhibits give the viewer a sense of the portability of the pieces. The lighter mortars and cannon, along with howitzers and 75mm guns, proved to be indispensible artillery in the mountain battles between the Greeks and their attackers. These portable pieces allowed the armies to move around and above their invaders in the mountains, and fire down upon them with devastating effect.
The second (top) floor features hardware from the Second World War and scale models of various battles and naval vessels. Visitors from the U.K. will recognise the British uniforms and the numerous samples of British military hardware. As one of Greece’s staunchest allies over the centuries Britain has helped provide the Hellenic armies with funds and equipment, as well as uniforms for the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Many of the pieces on display from WW2 were from captured enemy positions. They include German machine guns and Italian mortars and rifles. The WW1 items such as the rifles, artillery and Mauser machine guns were purchased from the Austrian See page D5

Grandparents as Babysitter BY JIM CONNORS Most of us who are able work long and hard in support of ourselves and family. It is normal to look forward to that long anticipated day when you no longer need to do that. After more than 33 years in education in Nassau County I decided to retire from teaching. Retired to do what ? Fortunately, with my wife still working I was able to pursue some life long pipe dreams along with some private tutoring and some soup kitchen volunteering. I did some free lance writing as a reporter and human interest writer. In addition I joined a choral group of seniors from the Town of Oyster Bay who put on shows in local nursing homes.
After 39 long years in probation work in Westchester County my wife decided to retire which I had suggested for a good while. With our state pensions and Social Security we were financially able to do some living. We traveled on some nice ocean cruises far and wide. Canada, Alaska, Newport Rhode Island. In addition, we traveled by air to Ireland and Barcelona Spain which enabled us to go on to tour Provenance France and Rome Italy. We were very grateful and enjoyed our travel trips a great deal. Five years ago we joyfully became grandparents to a healthy and beautiful baby girl. Little did we know this event would have a profound impact on our retirement and way of life. Our daughter and son-in-law are life
long residents of Nassau County. We welcomed their decision to remain in Nassau County so we could maintain frequent contact. We know full well that Nassau County is expensive especially starting out and to pay a mortgage and general living expenses require two full incomes. Good child care is an expensive luxury which can be very expensive and create a challenging dilemma for the new parents. As a loving parent and a super idealist my wife volunteered to baby sit for one full year at their home which is some 7 or 8 miles away for a 10 hour day from 7a.m. to 5p.m. Monday through Friday. The one year commitment is now in
its fifth year. In the interim, a second healthy baby boy has come on the scene. With my wife absent for a 10 hour work stint, a major change in our domestic life has developed. I have now inherited the responsibilty for doing the food shopping and most of the cooking. We have settled into a regular routine. I rise about 6a.m. and prepare a decent breakfast. My wide usually calls regarding when she will be home for dinner. The welfare of our daughters and extended family is of great concern to us. Let it be said we did what we could and time will tell how long we can continue in this role.

Social Security and Welfare BY TOM MARGENAU
Q: In a recent column, you said that disability benefits are not welfare. But you are simply wrong about that. They are. And so are benefits paid to widows and children. Only real Social Security, and by that I mean retirement benefits, should be paid from Social Security funds. All those other so-called Social Security “benefits” are undeserved welfare and should be paid out of the general funds. A: Wow! You really think that? And sadly, I know from other emails I get that you are not alone. To show how really wrong-headed your thinking is, let’s follow four very typical examples of various Social Security situations. Mary started working at age 21 and retired at age 62 and started collecting Social Security retirement benefits. So she paid into Social Security for 41 years. I take it this is what you call “real” Social Security so she deserves her benefits. Bob also started working at age 21. But sadly, at age 59, he had severe heart problems and was forced to stop working. He applied for and started getting disability benefits when he was 60. He worked and paid Social Security taxes for 38 years. And yet you claim he is getting welfare benefits that should be paid out of general tax revenues! Other than the fact that Mary worked until she retired and Bob was forced to stop working a few years prior to retirement, how are their cases different? What makes Mary’s benefits “real” and Bob’s benefits “welfare”? Here is a third example. Fred, like Mary and Bob, started working at age 21. He retired at age 66 and started getting Social Security. He died at age 80 and his widow, Sylvia, started getting an additional $200 per month in widow’s benefits added to her own retirement benefit. So you are saying that even though Fred worked and paid Social Security taxes for 45 years, the $200 per month that Sylvia now gets in widow’s benefits is “welfare.” I simply don’t follow your logic. Finally, let’s look at Anne’s Social Security situation. She also started working at age 21. Tragically, she was killed in a car accident when she was 50 years old. Her two minor children started getting survivor benefits on her account. Anne paid Social Security taxes for 29 years. How can you call the survivor benefits her children get “welfare”? I can’t imagine any sensible person being able to claim that the benefits that Bob and Sylvia get and those paid to Anne’s children are “welfare.” But I know where some of this kind of thinking comes from. First, there is the misguided notion that retirement benefits are the original and therefore the “real” Social Security program --
and that all other benefits were goodies tacked on much later. But what most folks don’t realize is that even though the original Social Security Act passed in 1935 did provide for just retirement benefits, Congress quickly realized that was not enough. So even before the first monthly benefits were paid in 1940, they added benefits for widows and for the children of deceased workers in 1939. In other words, widow’s and survivor benefits are part of the original Social Security laws and have been around for 77 years. And in the 1950s, Congress realized that many workers simply were not able to make it, both physically and financially, until their retirement years. So they created the Social Security disability program. And they set up separate funding and a separate trust fund to administer that program. Another reason people think of Social Security benefits as “welfare” is because of confusion with the SSI program. Supplemental Security Income is indeed a welfare program that pays a small monthly stipend to the elderly poor and to poor people with disabilities. That program is managed by the Social Security Administration, but SSI payments are funded out of general tax revenues, not Social Security taxes. Still, most Americans don’t understand the distinction and they incorrectly think that SSI is just another Social Security benefit. Having spent this entire column so far refuting the suggestion that parts of Social Security are welfare, I must point out that the entire Social Security program has always had elements of a welfare-like system. And here I am using “welfare” not in the pejorative way you intended, but in the broadest and best sense of the word. Or dare I use that dreaded term, “socialism”? After all, it isn’t called “Social” Security just because the words sound good together. For example, the Social Security benefit formula has always been skewed so that low-income workers get a better deal out of the program than their more highly paid counterparts. They don’t get higher benefits. A well-to-do person will always get much more in retirement benefits that a poorer retiree. But as a percentage of what they kicked into the system, the low-income person gets a higher rate of return than does the high-income person. Raising the standard of living of lower-income retirees has been a social goal of the program since its inception almost 80 years ago. And it’s worked! The poverty rate among the elderly was up around 50 percent when Social Security started. Today, it is less than 10 percent. So if you want to gripe about Social Security being a welfare program, go right ahead. Just remember to rant and rave about retirees getting what you
call “welfare” as well as other Social Security beneficiaries. If you have a Social Security question, Tom Margenau has the answer. Contact him at thomas.margenau@comcast.net. To find out more about Tom

Many Greeks went overseas to both the USA and the UK, helping the war effort by returning funds and weapons to Greece from abroad. While occupied by the Nazis, Greek partisans fought their battles mainly in the mountains until liberated by the Russians in October 1944. Scale models of some of these World War II battles can be seen in glass cases, the main feature being a replica of the famous Metaxas line of 19 forts across the north of Greece. The small arms display features Lee Enfield rifles, German Mauser guns, Italian mortars and other handguns and rifles. On display in the exterior exhibition are both jet aircraft and helicopters from the Air Force, and Navy sonar equipment.
