What Happened to Television: How and Why TV Has Changed So Dramatically in the Last Decade Watching television used to be a fairly simple enterprise - you turned on the set, selected a channel and enjoyed your program. Now, television is changing in front of our eyes. More and more viewers are cancelling cable television, preferring to watch new online-only channels like Netflix or Amazon. An entire generation of younger viewers have given up on the TV set altogether and stream programs on their laptop, tablet or phone. Tens of thousands of kids 10 to 15 years old have started their own TV networks on YouTube, bypassing NBC, ABC and CBS altogether. This presentation will look at these startling developments and explain why the old days of simply “watching TV” are fast disappearing.

Town offers boating safety seminars at community centers

Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Councilwoman Michele Johnson invite residents to take advantage of a new Boating Safety Seminar offered in late March at local Town Community Centers. The seminar is being offered by the Department of Public Safety Bay Constable Unit, and will include topics related to safe operation, regulations, responsibilities of boat ownership and operation. The seminar is free for Town residents. Supervisor Saladino stated, “This Boating Safety Seminar offers participants the fundamentals of safe boating operations. The course is recommended for all boaters and required by New York State for all personal watercraft operators.” Too many people take their boats out onto the water without proper preparation,” said Supervisor Saladino. “The boating safety tips offered at this course can help save lives by ensuring boaters are properly prepared before they leave the dock.” Participants can choose between one eight-hour session and two fourhour sessions.

Session 1 will be offered from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Tuesday, March 20 and Monday, March 26. Both classes must be attended in Session 1, which will be held at the Hicksville Community Center. Session 2 will be offered on Saturday, March 24, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Marjorie Post Park Community Center. “History has shown us that too many people take their boats out onto the waters without proper preparation and training to,” said Councilwoman Johnson. “The tips offered at this Boating Safety Seminar can help save lives by ensuring boaters are properly prepared before they leave the dock.” Participants must be a minimum of 10 years old to participate in the seminar. Classes are free, but advanced registration is required. Safe Boating Courses are required for motor boat operators born on or before May 1, 1996. The course is also required for personal watercraft (Jet Ski) operators, who must be a minimum of 14 years of age. For registration or additional information, visit www.oysterbaytown.com or call (516) 677-5350.

Report potholes on town roads Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino today announced that residents may report potholes, which are common to all municipalities on Long Island at this time of year, to the Department of Highways at (516) 677-5757 between the hours of 7AM and 3PM, Monday through Friday. This hotline service is being provided to residents in an effort to fill potholes caused by winter damage in a more efficient manner. Residents may also report pothole issues on Nassau County and the State of New York roadways and highways. The Town will transmit these concerns to the appropriate municipal highway crew. Supervisor Saladino stated, “As the winter ends, all municipal roadways experience the devastating effects of freezing temperatures and salt applications. The Town of Oyster Bay is working quickly to make these repairs and we recognize it is one of our residents’ highest priorities.”

At the direction of Supervisor Saladino and the Town Board, the Department of Highways has increased resources so that pothole repairs will be made more quickly. Potholes form as asphalt road surfaces crack under the heat of the day. These cracks allow snow and rain water to seep into the underlying dirt and gravel. This water freezes and expands, and as a result dirt and gravel is pushed out leaving a hole when the ice melts. While winter has resulted in a large number of potholes throughout Long Island, additional potholes are expected to open as the weather warms. The Town of Oyster Bay is shifting its attention to address these potholes immediately. To report a pothole issue, please call (516) 677-5757 between the hours of 7AM and 3PM, Monday through Friday, or email highwayoperations@oysterbay-ny. gov.

Jericho robotics students raise funds for clean water

Siddhant Tandon, Sahil Joshi, Anshul Vemuri, Benjamin Liu, Andrew Istomin, and Rishab Bhatia. Two groups of young students from Jericho, NY, are participating in FIRST LEGO League and FIRST LEGO League Jr. to create hydrodynamics projects while fundraising for the nonprofit WaterAid, an international organization that works to improve access to water, sanitation and hygiene in some of the world’s poorest countries. To date, the RoboFalcons and Techno Queens have raised almost $3,000. They hope to reach some of the more than 844 million people across the globe without access to clean water. The student groups are also teaching their peers about the water issues using WaterAid’s program, People Pipeline, a curriculum that teaches students about the global water crisis, technologies and science, and how people can take action to make a difference. “The biggest lesson I’ve learned this year related to water is that, not everybody is fortunate enough to have clean water,” says nine-year-old Amneet Kaur, on the Techno Queens team. “Some people have to walk three to five miles a day just to get water that isn’t even clean. I hope to spread awareness about the water crisis and to help at least one village get access to clean water.” As part of FIRST LEGO League, the

RoboFalcons and Techno Queens are competing in STEM competitions related to hydrodynamics. They are learning about water resources and sustainability through meetings with community organizations such as the Suffolk Water County Association, Jericho Water District and Verdant Power, as well as hosting water-related fundraising events at their schools. Through this experience, the students have been inspired to be innovative science and technology leaders by engaging in activities that build science, engineering, and technology skills. The Techno Queens won their first ever competition on Saturday, March 3rd, which took place at Mineola High School and the RoboFalcons also won their competition the following day at Longwood High School. This year’s project for RoboFalcons is around Autonomous Water Quality Detection using underwater robots and sensors in homes. The team has visited various Water Districts in Long Island to gather information, perform research and discuss with local water authorities. They also coordinated a Water Week at their school, where they collaborated with the art club to create posters, wore WaterAid shirts to raise awareness, and coordinated a water related treasure

Skiing Gore Mountain: New York’s Adirondacks at its Best BY DAVID LEIBERMAN AND LAINI MIRANDA

Riding the chairlift at Gore Mountain. The jagged peaks and wilderness of the Adirondacks give you a Rocky Mountain feeling © Laini Miranda/goingplacesfarandnear.com

We arrive at Gore Mountain, in New York’s wild and open Adirondack Mountains, park in lot E and immediately find a shuttle driver to take us to the base lodge. Three kind gentleman staffers open the door for us and greet us as we walk in. We get our ski rentals quickly and are out the door, taking the gondola to the summit. The first thing we notice at Gore is the ease of the experience. While maintaining a deceptively small, family-friendly feel, every amenity is considered and every step of getting you out of the parking lot, through the rental shop, and up to the mountain is as smooth as can be. On this particular Saturday when they had several inches of new powder, whenever we veered away from the gondola, it felt quiet and we experienced the sweeping panoramas of the Adirondacks without much of a crowd. At some points, the open vistas of the Adirondack Preserve let you imagine yourself skiing the Rockies. Though Gore skiing consists of nine faces across four mountains, you can easily move between the areas, and it’s simple to get back to the base lodge and food-court or the mid-mountain Saddle Lodge to grab a bite or warm up. There are a lot of options for all types of skiers (10% of trails are classed as easier, or green; 50% are intermediate, or blue; and 40% are most difficult, or black trails). They also feature abundant glade skiing when

Skiing Gore Mountain: New York’s Adirondacks at its Best

Continued from page D1 there’s sufficient snow –– more than we’ve seen at most of the East Coast resorts. It is surprising to realize that Gore is the biggest ski destination in New York State (and New York has more ski areas than any other in the nation!), with the most skiable acres (446 acres), 107 trails, 27 glades (Gore was one of the first eastern ski areas to develop gladed terrain), six freestyle areas. Six of its trails are longer than 1 1/2 miles, with the longest run 4.4 miles. In all, Gore offers 42 miles of skiing, even night skiing! With 2537 vertical feet, Gore also offers the 6th greatest vertical in the East - a greater vertical drop in fact than such famous mountains as Stowe (2360), Sunday River (2340), Okemo (2200), Jay Peak (2153), Mount Tremblant (2116), Loon, (2100), MontSainte-Anne (2050), Mad River Glen (2037), Stratton Mountain (2003) and Mount Snow (1700). Each of Gore’s four mountains have their own character: Gore Mountain is the biggest and highest, at 3600 ft., Bear Mountain rises to 3200 ft., Burnt Ridge Mountain rises to 2735 ft. and Little Gore Mountain goes up to 1900 ft. Among them is an astonishing array of terrain, not to mention views and the fact that if conditions are not the best in one area, or are too crowded (not likely because of the way skiers

It is more useful, though, to divide Gore into its different areas: the Straight Brook Area on Gore Mountain is where you will find a variety of challenging terrain and glades; it is also where you will find the two runs, Rumors and Lies, rumored to be the steepest train in the East (unconfirmed). There are also a couple of intermediate trails - like Cloud - which connects to other blues and greens to ski the whole way down. In

all, this area has 10 trails, 4 glades and 54 acres accessed by a quad lift. “The Dark Side” of Gore known as the High Peaks Area is “Classic Adirondack” skiing and very popular with experts. There are 12 trails and 2 glades on 30 acres, accessed by a double chair. Bear Mountain offers the Northwoods Area, accessed by the Northwoods Gondola and Gore’s newest lift, a high-speed detachable quad. You can take a green trail Sunway, 2.2 miles down to the base; a blue trail, Twister, is long, wide and forgiving, and beautiful, lined with trees and with lovely views of the Adirondacks. This area offers

29 trails, 3 glades, gondola, detachable quad, double and four surface lifts on 154 acres. (The gondola is marvelous, and they cleverly post these interesting historical notes in each car.) The North Side is off the beaten path, and offers an array of easy-going cruisers and gorgeous views of High Peaks. It’s considered the best bet for families (9 trails, 2 glades on 37 acres serviced by a quad). Burnt Ridge area is one of Gore’s four peaks of development, which is noted for its geology and great views of North Creek and the Hudson River - six trails, four glades on 70 acres, serviced by “one of the most luxurious rides” on the mountain, a high-speed quad. North Creek Ski Bowl is where they offer night skiing as well as tubing (8 trails, 5 glades, on 47 acres, serviced by two triples. This area has its own base lodge and parking lot, plus half pipe and terrain park. That means you can drive up in the day, arrive in the late afternoon, and purchase a night-skiing ticket; or if you purchase a multi-day ticket, you purchase an add-on for night skiing (3-9 pm). Night skiing is offered Friday, Saturday and Sundays, and daily during holidays, until 9 pm. Now for the runs. Our two favorites were on opposite sides of the mountain: Chatiemac at Gore Mountain and Sagamore at Burnt Ridge Mountain. We were intrigued by Rumors and Lies on Gore, which are two of their most famous runs, but neither was open due to the lack of snow. The rest of the top See page D5

As I See It: On Baseball Strategies BY LOU THEODORE This one is for the baseball fans in the Litmore reading audience. Most of you already know that I consider myself an authority on basketball coaching. After all, I did publish a book titled Basketball Coaching 101(Amazon) - and that, by definition, makes me a basketball expert. Well, I have some news for you: I’m also an authority on baseball . . . and Modesty is not my middle name. I became a baseball fan around 10 years of age. Not just a fan. A Yankee fan! I lived and died with them. Charlie (King Kong) Keller, Joe Page, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, etc., were my heroes. I remember paying 60¢ for bleacher seats and sitting on hard wooden benches for a doubleheader in torrid heat… and loving it. I then became a Yankee hater and a Mets fan, and have remained a Met fan since the team’s inception. And during this time, I have watched thousands of games on TV (rarely going to Shea or Citi Field). The net result? You guessed it. I am now a baseball authority and qualified to provide meaningful instructional analysis on the game. But what does meaningful instructional analysis mean? Simply that I can provide those involved with baseball at any level - manager, coach, player, front office personnel, etc., - with suggestions on how to enhance and improve a team’s ability to win games on the field. That being said, here are tidbits drawn from my baseball file on 10 different categories: infielders, outfielders, catchers, pitchers, batters, base runners, coaches, managers, general managers, and (of course) owners.

Infielders

Each of the four infielders, but shortstops in particular, should be aware of the speed of the both the batter and runners on base. The infielders should play deeper, particularly the second baseman, if the batter is a slow runner; I would even advise playing on the outfield grass. The shortstop and second baseman should also be aware of a batters tendency to pull curveballs or fastballs and adjust their position on the pitch. The two should also communicate on who will cover second in steal situations.

Outfielders

Much of the above for infielders also applies to outfielders. Outfielders presently play too deep, particularly the left and right fielders. The outfielder should think and be aware of all the possible scenarios that may arise if the ball is

hit to the outfield, particularly with men on base. The scenarios would vary depending on the number of outs, the score, and the inning.

Catchers

Catchers should know the strengths and weaknesses of the pitchers and all the opposing batters he will face. Knowing the disposition of the umpire calling balls and strikes would also help; e.g., does it help complaining on balls and strikes, etc.? Knowing the speed of runners on base is an absolute must. Many catchers today provide encouragement to the pitcher. I think there can be more of this. There should be more face-to-face discussions, e.g., put the ball over the plate and definitely don’t walk a batter. I believe the catcher should be the field general and run the defense. He should also be aware of all the points raised earlier for infielders and outfielders, as well as pitchers. Finally, a high I.Q. catcher is a definite plus. He should dish out instructions to outfielders, infielders, and the pitcher on what to do if . . . e.g., a double s

Pitchers

It goes without saying that pitchers must have an idea of each hitter’s prowess. Some can’t hit curveballs. Some can’t hit fastballs. Some like it inside, and others don’t. Some of their preferences change with pitch count. Runners on base have to be carefully monitored. He should be aware of the likelihood of a steal. He should also know beforehand what to do on a bunt or a comebacker with a man (or men) on base. His own pitching limitations is a concern; it’s no secret that starting pitchers weaken in the latter innings. Although much of what will follow applies to starting pitchers, it also applies to relief pitchers. Since the mound is approximately one foot above ground level, a 100 pitch outing (plus bullpen, warmups, etc.) results in a pitcher effectively walking up a 20 story building; this may explain, in part, why pitchers do not perform as well later in a game. Older pitchers should seriously consider minimizing movements off the mound and, for goodness sake, try not to walk batters – put the ball over the plate and take your chances. I would replace any pitcher who walks a batter late in the game if ahead by more than one run. Finally, pitchers should try to avoid 3-2 counts with runners on base and 2 out.

Batters

Batters need to be aware of the strengths and weaknesses of both the starting pitcher and relief pitchers.

How often does he throw fastballs? Does he prefer pitching inside or outside? Does he hold runners on base? Does he tire in later innings? Does he throw strikes on the first pitch? Does he change his pitching approach when behind the count? These questions need to be considered. But the batter also needs to realize that a walk is just about as good as a single. Batters need to consider changing their batting philosophy when behind in the count. More importantly, a batter should NOT be swinging for the fences in the last inning when trailing by more than one run with nobody on base; the objective should be to get on base, and the easiest way to accomplish this is via a walk. Keep in mind that home run swings significantly reduce one’s ability to check a swing on a pitch that is outside the strike zone…thus reducing the probability of a walk. Finally, batters (as well as base runners) should HUSTLE at all times; hell, you are exerting yourself less than ten minutes per game.

Base Runners

The coaches usually remind the runners of the scenario at hand but the runner must also be alert. On a single to left field, he should run top speed and ALWAYS consider going to second base since he is in a direct line with the left fielder’s throw to second base. Any throw to the left or right of second base should serve as a green light to consider going to second base. While on base, he should ALWAYS be prepared and consider taking an extra base if the catcher doesn’t field the pitch cleanly. He also should practice sliding techniques whenever possible.

Coaches

Coaches play the least significant role of the major players. Nonetheless, they should provide encouragement and support while on offense. Most importantly, they should know the limitations of the players on base and the strengths/weaknesses of the outfielders (but to a lesser extent of infielders).

Managers

For the most part, managers are overrated. And, most overmanage. Some are liabilities. Some are major liabilities, e.g., Terry Collins (in particular) of the Mets and Joe Girardi of the Yanks. The manager’s main job is to instill the basics to the entire team. Practice makes perfect and relays, double plays, bunting, and hitting to the opposite field should be practiced regularly. I would require each batter to hit to the opposite field when confront-

ed with a defensive shift to one side. Players also MUST understand that a walk is just about as good as a single… and sometimes a double. I would have every batter prior to every game draw a red or black marble out of a hat. Those who draw a black marble would be required to take the first pitch, or when the count is 2-0, 3-1, or 3-0. Red marble selectors can do as they wish. However everyone must take on a 3-1 count with the bases loaded and two outs. Some of the above can be altered during late innings. The manager also needs to realize that when a relief pitcher comes in and gets a batter out that he has not thrown two pitches but probably fifty pitches when bullpen and warmup throws are counted. Since these additional pitches can take their toll, managers need to give consideration to their sometime reckless indiscriminant use of relief pitchers. Finally, he should require (with NO exceptions) every batter RUN out every ground ball or fly ball. One added point: He should not select cronies for coaches and I would allow my bench coaches to occasionally serve as manager for certain games.

General Manager

Most general managers (GMs) are not too bright and not capable of making intelligent baseball decisions. Most of the GMs are just like many of the players and coaches. There are a handful (not many) who know what’s going on. Few of the players have college degrees, unlike some football players. Joe Girardi is a graduate of Northwestern (in my opinion, the most prestigious university in our country) and he has repeatedly demonstrated an inability to make sound, rational baseball decisions. In any event, the GM needs to know both the capabilities of his players and those that are on the market. It’s a given that the GM should work closely with the manager; his cronies must not come into play in any of his decisions and actions.

Owners

They are in the baseball business for either or both of the following reasons: ego and/or to make money. He should understand the meaning of risk. He should also understand the meaning of optimization. He should also understand how risk and optimization affect each other. Bottom line: he has to make intelligent decisions from a risk and/or optimization prospective when it comes time to hiring, firing and managing his business; as with both managers and GMs, he should not hire cronies.

Observant Reader Notices Fluke in COLA Payments BY TOM MARGENAU

Q: The recent cost-of-living adjustment to our Social Security checks got me wondering about something. As you’ve always pointed out in your column, the checks come one month behind. So, for example, the check we got in January is actually the payment for December. But the 2018 COLA increase showed up in that January check. So did we get the 2018 increase for one month of 2017? In other words, did we get the first 2018 increase one month early in our December 2017 benefit payment? And if so, why? A: Bingo! You got it right. And surprise, surprise: Politics is the reason for what happens with the COLA payment. The annual cost-of-living adjustment used to be paid properly. In other words, Social Security beneficiaries got their first increase for the year in the February check -- which was the payment for January. But about 30 or so years ago, seniors got up in arms because they (incorrectly) assumed Congress was delaying their COLA increase by a month. Someone should have splashed some cold water in their faces and explained to them that they were properly getting their first annual cost-of-living increase in the January check -- paid to them in February. Well, that’s not how politics works. Members of Congress, then and now, sure hate to upset senior citizens (i.e., the most reliable cohort of voters). And they couldn’t act quickly enough to appease them. So they changed the law to say that Social Security beneficiaries would get their annual cost-of-living adjustment one month early. Ever since then, senior citizens have gotten a once a year gift from Congress. And that is why the 2018 COLA is actually figured into the December 2017 benefit -- payable in January. Q: I am 64 and started getting my own Social Security about three months ago. I just learned my ex-wife, who owned her own realty company and made big bucks, has recently signed up for her Social Security. I have never remarried. Can I now suspend my Social Security and then apply for husband’s benefits on her record and save mine until 70? A: No, you can’t do that. If you had waited until age 66 before applying for any Social Security benefits, then you could have applied for spousal benefits and, at the time, saved your own retirement benefits until age 70. This is the “file and restrict” maximizing strategy that is all the rage among baby boomers. (For other readers, you can only use that strategy if you turn 66 before January 2020.) But you may not have totally missed the boat. Anyone who files for Social

Security retirement benefits has up to 12 months to change his or her mind. So you still have a chance to jump on that maximizing ship if you want. What you would have to do is withdraw your current claim, repay all benefits received, and then reapply for spousal benefits at age 66. Beginning at that point, you would get 50 percent of your ex-wife’s Social Security rate. Then at age 70, you would reapply for your own retirement benefits and get a 32 percent delayed retirement credit added to your monthly benefits. But before doing all of that, I suggest you sit down with a calculator and run the numbers and decide if it is really worth it. Q: I turned 66 in January. When I filed for benefits online, I said I wanted my benefits to begin in February, knowing the January check comes in February. After reading one of your recent columns, I now realize I made a huge mistake. I should have said I want my benefits to begin in January (the month I turned 66), with my first check to come in February. So now I will be missing out on one Social Security check. I am losing sleep over this. What can I do? A: I think you are worrying way too much about this. There is really nothing special about starting your benefits exactly at age 66. If they start the following month, it is no big deal. In fact, there is a small advantage to starting your benefits one month later. You will get a two-thirds of 1 percent “delayed retirement credit” added to your ongoing monthly benefits. So if I were you, I wouldn’t try to change anything. But if this is really bothering you, your only recourse would be to withdraw the claim you already filed and then file a whole new claim stating you want your benefits to begin in January. Q: I am thinking of taking my Social Security benefits when I turn 65 this July. I understand I will get reduced benefits. I am married to a younger man. He is only 58 and makes substantially more money that I do. But sadly, he has cancer and has been told he has 12 to 24 months to live. If he were to die, would I be messing up my potential widow’s benefits by taking my own benefits early? A: Not really. Essentially, your widow’s benefit will be based on one thing only: your age when you start getting those benefits. If you are 66 or older when he dies, you will get your own benefit supplemented up to 100 percent of his full retirement rate. If he dies before you reach age 66, you will have a choice. You can either switch to a reduced widow’s benefit right away. (The reduction would be about one half

of 1 percent for each month you are under age 66.) Or you could continue to collect your reduced retirement check until age 66, when you could switch to a 100 percent widow’s benefit. Q: If I delay my widow’s benefits until age 70, do I get the same 32 percent bonus added to my check as a retiree does who waits that long to file?

A: No. That delayed retirement credit only applies to retirees. So there would be no advantage to delaying starting your widow’s benefits beyond age 66. If you have a Social Security question, Tom Margenau has the answer. Contact him at thomas.margenau@comcast.net. COPYRIGHT 2018 CREATORS.COM

Skiing Gore Mountain: C ontinued from page D2

mountain was fun to explore. The caveat about this area is they don’t feature high speed lifts. On the other hand, the double High Peaks Chair lift is one of the last of its kind on the East Coast and makes for a sweet slow-paced ride between the glades. To get to the top of the mountain you have two options, right or left: from the top of North Woods Gondola you can go right to take the windy green Ruby Run to blue Upper Wood Inn, to the High Peaks Chair. Pick up speed towards the bottom as you’ll have to skate for a decent chunk at the end of that ride, and will end up at the quaint double chair lift. Or there’s a pretty fast and enjoyable black called Uncas that will spit you out at the Straight Brook Quad, which will take you straight up to the top at quicker speeds. Our other favorite was Sagamore, a long delightful black that we had virtually to ourselves. On this March day with not a ton of snow, that trail was still a pleasure top to bottom. In general, Gore has excellent trivia interesting and signage throughout the property. Each of the gondola cabins has its own set of fun facts, including one about Gore’s award winning environmental initiatives (all the finalists behind Gore were Colorado or west coast mountains). The timeline above the stalls in the food court is another sweet touch. We got to experience the major renovations Gore made this season at three lodges. At the base area there are two large additions which (as we found) streamline the rental process and facilitate getting back on the mountain. Another addition that any hungry skier will appreciate is their brand new smoker and the amazing pulled pork sandwiches it produces in the outdoor Open Pit Grille by the Base Lodge Food Court. The new mid-mountain Saddle Lodge is another welcome addition featuring smoked chicken tacos and a breathtaking view. Last season, Gore introduced Nordic skiing, turning its old tubing park into a cross-country ski area –– which has snowmaking on 3.7 km of its 5 km trails. The new area was so successful last year (even opening by Thanksgiving) that Gore hosted the New York State Nordic Championships. The Ski Bowl where the Nordic area also has a half pipe, border skier cross, and twilight skiing (until 8 pm). On one gondola ride, we learned from a nice woman with her daughter that 3rd and 4th graders ski for free at many mountains in New York State (I Ski NY Free Passport); also, kids under 19 ski free with an adult. The demo skis we rented were excellent: my Rossignol skis felt like they almost turned by themselves they

were so smooth. Gore started off as a destination ski area - after all, it wasn’t that easy to reach. But over time, especially as the New York Thruway and Northway made it so easy to reach from Albany, Saratoga Springs and Glen Falls and even Montreal, Gore became more of a day trip. However, if you have more than the one day, the Adirondack region has so much to offer. The landscape is breathtaking, and significantly, relatively undeveloped. You also have some marvelous resorts and lodging - the grand, historic Sagamore Resort on Lake George is 45 minutes away (they offer a shuttle bus), and in North Creek, the Copperfield Inn is as intimate as an inn (only 31 rooms), but with all the services of a luxury hotel (Copperfield Inn, 307 Main Street, North Creek, NY 12853, 518-251-9808, www. copperfieldinn.com). North Creek is a charming village with several delightful bistros and shops, and the village offers a free shuttle bus to the mountain, less than 10 minutes away, every 20-30 minutes throughout the day, in season. This visit was an easy day trip for us, but after realizing what a special destination Gore is, we will definitely be coming back for a longer stay.

Windham Mountain Resort Sponsors Paralympics Team Member Staci Mannella in Peoyong Chang WINDHAM MOUNTAIN RESORT, NY - Windham Mountain Resort, renowned for its adaptive skiing program, is honored to have sponsored U.S. Paralympics Alpine National Team member, Staci Mannella, s she made her way to the 2018 Peoyong Chang Paralympic Games. Staci first discovered skiing with the Adaptive Sports Foundation at Windham Mountain when she was just four years old. Legally blind due to achromatopsia, a genetic eye condition she was born with, she started skiing because it was an activity that her family could all do together. She quickly progressed from skiing with a bamboo pole between two sighted skiers, to out skiing her instructors, to competing in her first national championship at just eleven years old. A limitless dreamer, Staci’s career thus far has included four national championship titles, a world cup gold medal, and representing the United States in the 2014 Sochi Paralympic Games. Staci and her current guide, Sadie Debaun, have been skiing together since December of 2015. They’ve secured four world cup gold medals, three world cup silver medals, and a bronze medal at the 2017 World Championships. The two have high hopes for Peoyong Chang. Windham’s support of Staci is a testament to the Resort’s long-standing relationship with the Adaptive Sports Foundation. The non-profit organization provides life changing experiences for individuals with physical and cognitive disabilities and chronic illnesses through outdoor physical activity, education, support and community. The slope side Adaptive Sports Center at Windham Mountain provides athletes like Staci with a fully equipped, easily accessible, cozy place to enjoy a day on the mountain with their families. Staci Mannella is a Randolph, New Jersey native, and at twenty years old, a

full-time student at Dartmouth College where she competes on the Dartmouth equestrian team. She aspires to attend veterinarian school after Dartmouth. While her skiing career has brought Staci all over the world, she always makes her way back home to Windham. Windham Mountain Resort looks forward to having Staci on the slopes this season, and to sending her off to the 2018 Peoyong Chang Paralympic Games in March.

Windham to Install High Speed Six Passenger Lift & Implement RFID Ticketing

A brand new, high speed, detachable six passenger chairlift will be installed at Windham Mountain Resort this summer. The new Doppelmayr lift will run from the base area to the summit, replacing the current Whistler Triple, better known as “F Lift”. It will have a slope length of 5,105 feet, and an uphill capacity of 3,000 people per hour. The ride from base to summit on the new lift will be just under five and a half minutes. Removal of “F Lift” will begin in April and installation of the new lift in May. Whirlwind Express (A Lift), the high speed, detachable quad that runs alongside “F Lift”, will remain in place and will run this summer, servicing the Windham Mountain Bike Park and skyrides. The Bike Park opens for the season Memorial Day Weekend and will be unaffected by the construction. The new lift will be accompanied by state of the art lift access, with the addition of RFID ticketing and gates for the 2018/2019 season. The “Axess” radio-frequency identification technology will eliminate the need for guests to present their lift ticket or season pass to a lift attendant prior to loading all base area lifts. RFID Cards can be reloaded via a home computer

It will provide easier access to lifts and more accurate scanning of tickets and passes, helping skiers and riders get on the mountain faster, skipping the ticket windows and lift line scanning process.” said Chip Seamans, General Manager of Windham Mountain Resort. All guests will now have the option to sign up for Resort Charge, by attaching a credit card account to their RFID card. This eliminates the need to carry cash or a credit card on the mountain. Resort Charge is accepted at all Windham Mountain Resort operated restaurants, eateries and retail locations. The new chairlift and RFID system represent $6.5M in capital already invested toward the 2018/2019 Winter Season at Windham Mountain Resort. More details on installation progress and a name for the new lift will follow. Guests are invited to become a 2018/2019 Season Passholder at the annual Season Passholder Party on

Saturday, March 17th, when the best rates on passes will be offered for one day only. Passholders will enjoy a complimentary buffet and live music at the party. Windham Mountain Resort is a year-round destination in the Great Northern Catskills of Greene County, NY, about two and a half hours north of New York City. With 285 skiable acres, Windham offers 54 trails serviced by 12 lifts. The Resort includes six terrain parks, learn-to packages, ski and stay packages, dining options, an Adventure Park, the full-service Alpine Spa, night skiing, and much more. In the summer months, Windham Mountain Bike Park is famous for its World Cup course, but also features a three-mile-long beginner trail. Windham Mountain Country Club is an 18-hole public golf course with a private club atmosphere.

‘Collective Consciousness’ on View at Gold Coast Arts Center Focuses on Responsibility for Environment

Friday, March 16, 2018

G O I N G P L A C E S, N E A R & F A R ....

BY KAREN RUBIN TRAVEL FEATURES SYNDICATE, GOINGPLACESFARANDNEAR.COM “Nature has been inspiring artists for centuries, and its beauty has been captured in paintings, sculptures, photographs and a variety of other medium. But some artists take the relationship between art and the environment a step further, creating works from nature itself or producing artworks that make bold statements about the natural world and the imprint mankind has left on it.” This is what curator Jude Amsel was looking for when she put together the exhibition, COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS, on view at the Gold Coast Arts Center Gallery in Great Neck, Long Island through April 1. The seven artists whose works are represented “are commenting on man’s relationship with our planet. These artists have the power to make environmentalism a priority and bring green initiatives to the forefront of cultural conversations,” she stated. “With all the gloom and doom, we can feel sad with what’s happening in the world. But these artists bring an awareness,” a literal consciousness of our role and responsibility, Amsel said at the Artists’ Reception, March 4. The viewer is left with a sense of optimism that man’s better impulses will rise to the fore. Yoon Cho’s work – multi-media performance art which combines video superimposed with digitized drawings – is the starkest commentary on this theme: her project was inspired by a difficult pregnancy after 10 years of marriage and the birth of her son, she and her husband traveled to barren landscapes to comment on extinction and procreation, the images of life forcing its way through. Beth Williams Garrett created feminized Buddha head sculptures out of plastic bags. Linda Cunningham turned the blighted industrial waterfront of the South Bronx into striking images on torn, furled canvas. Nancy Gesimondo found solace in creating assemblages of natural materials, where mussel shells appear

“Collective Conscious” Curator Jude Amsel, Gold Coast Arts Center Director Regina Gil, NYS Assemblyman Tony D’Urso with artists Beth Williams Garrett, Nancy Gesimondo, Yoon Cho, Charles Cohen, Lauren Skelly Bailey and Linda Cunningham © Karen Rubin/ goingplacesfarandnear.com as butterflies, a metaphorical prayer flying to heaven; water chestnut seedpods are like flying bats, and peacock feathers are like tall grass. Lauren Skelly Bailey re-creates the natural world of coral reefs in meticulous glazed ceramics, mimicking the surprise you have when you touch coral, which seem to be fluid and flowing to discover they are rock hard. Charles Cohen uses realistic photography to get reduce household products to the shape and color of their plastic containers to force a different perspective. Luba Lukova, whose graphic artistry can be seen in the New York Times, brings her timely commentary to an image of a green plant shielded by a hand as bombs fall, in her silkscreen, “Peace and Planet” (2015). What is so interesting is to see such variety of media and approaches that come together to the essential message of human impact on the natural world: a collective consciousness of our responsibility. The Gold Coast Arts Center is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting and supporting the arts through education, exhibition, performance and outreach. It offers

Jericho’s annual STEAM Day a success

Jericho School District hosted a successful STEAM Day recently, which was organized by Brian Cummings, Jericho’s Curriculum Associate for Science and Technology Education. Students in grades three, four, and five had the opportunity to attend two Jericho teacher-led workshops, including Cookie Mining, Squishy Circuits, and Painting with Pendulums and Magnets. STEAM Day also featured workshops from the New York Hall of Science,

which was paid for by a donation from the Jericho Educational Foundation. Kids had the opportunity to play with bugs, build and launch a rocket and learn about static electricity. Each participant was given a Jericho STEAM Day bag filled with goodies, which was purchased thanks to a donation from each of the Jericho elementary PTAs. Feedback was amazing and the event was a huge success.

THE VIEW FROM HERE

20 years of the Good Friday peace accords BY BOB MORGAN, JR. Even though I am by no means of purely Irish descent (five of my eight great-grandparents were of Irish descent), l think of myself as IrishAmerican. And so I frequently have an Irishthemed column around St. Patrick’s Day. This year I’d like to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Good Friday accords in 1998, which ended hundreds of years of sectarian violence in Northern Ireland. The longstanding violence in the North was rooted in the centuries of British hegemony over Ireland. British rule in mostly Catholic Ireland was deeply resented by many and was connected with religious and social bigotry and with the potato famine of 1845-55, during which a million and half of the Irish emigrated from the country. The British had to put down numerous rebellions, as late as 1916. Even after 26 counties of Ireland were given independence in 1921, and the Republic of Ireland later formed, the British retained control of the remaining, mostly Protestant, six counties in the North. This was bitterly resented by many Catholics in both the Republic and the North, who believed that Ireland should be unified. Meanwhile, the Protestant majority in the North, many of whom are ethnically Scottish, cherished their relationship with Britain. While hostilities relating to the remaining British rule ebbed and flowed after independence, violent clashes resumed in earnest in 1969, and a period called the Troubles began, with Northern Ireland becoming a consistently violent place. For almost 30 years there were many killings, both indiscriminate and targeted, by both paramilitary organizations and security forces, with over 3600 people slain. It seemed to many that the killings would never end. But they did. After negotiations lasting two years, an agreement brokered by an envoy of President Bill Clinton, former senator George Mitchell, was finally approved on Good Friday, 1998 and was soon thereafter ratified in referendums in both Northern Ireland and the Republic. The peace has overwhelmingly held ever since.

The Good Friday agreement provided for a Northern Ireland Assembly with a power sharing executive and links involving assemblies across Britain and Ireland. The Republic of Ireland dropped its constitutional claim to the six counties which formed Northern Ireland. The agreement also had provisions relating to decommissioning weapons of paramilitary forces, the future of policing in Northern Ireland and the early release of paramilitary prisoners. I saw the aftermath of the Troubles a few years ago in 2011 when I visited Northern Ireland with Robert, then 17, who had taken an interest in the Irish Republican Army, the leading Catholic force, and its adversaries. In Belfast, we took a “black cab” tour through neighborhoods that had been severely afflicted by the Troubles. Our guide, a passionate supporter of the republican (Catholic) cause, showed us the politically oriented murals painted during the Troubles, as well as the huge peace wall that was built to preserve a semblance of harmony by dividing the Catholic and Protestant communities. In Derry, at the other end of Northern Ireland, we also saw murals and a memorial commemorating the Bloody Sunday massacre of civil rights protesters by British troops in 1972. We also had a taxi guide there, but he was Protestant, and had a different view of the protests. But for all of the continuing bitterness that remained in some quarters of Northern Ireland, even in 2011, it was now a war of words and slogan, with violence almost completely ended. Even though Ireland is a small country, the Irish have been amazingly successful, both at home and in the many countries to which they have disbursed, in so many areas, from literature and poetry, to music, to law and politics. But too often these successes were overshadowed by overwhelming bitterness and sectarian violence. It was a great victory for all the Irish that in 1998 they were able to put away, for the most part, centuries of hatred and move to a newer and better world.

MEDUSA LACROSSE COMES TO THE NORTH SHORE!

Medusa Little Laxers Program is coming to the North Shore for the first time this Spring for Girls & Boys Ages 3 to 8!

Due to popular demand, Medusa Lacrosse, the Garden City community’s premier, go-to youth lacrosse program is expanding to Roslyn/Port Washington/ Manhasset area. The Little Laxers program has introduced thousands of children ages 3-8 to the sport of lacrosse and helped nurture a love and passion for the game. Medusa is run by the Fiore sisters who were both 4 year starters on the G.C. High School Varsity Lacrosse Team and went on to play collegiate Division 1 level lacrosse at Princeton and Boston College. The program is known for its energy, positivity, creativity and ability to break down all the core concepts and fundamentals into fun drills and games that are challenging, competitive and appeal to those children who are hesitant to try a new sport. Here’s one of many of our testimonials that sums it up nicely: “My daughter loves Medusa Little Laxers! I was so happy to find a program that makes learning a team sport so much fun. Who says you can’t dress up like a superhero or princess AND learn how to play lacrosse? And why not warm up by playing a game of freeze tag, or go on an Easter egg hunt with your lacrosse stick? It’s no wonder that even at three years of age, it was the one activity that my daughter was consistently excited to attend, and her subsequent progress in learning the sport reflects that! Jackie does such a great job leading the Little Laxers program and is a wonderful role model for the kids—she leads with so much enthusiasm and positivity and brings a great energy to the field! She really makes each and every child feel like they are part of the Medusa family.” – Jill, Garden City resident and mother of a 5 year old girl who has been attending Little Laxers clinics for the past 2 years.
