Catalina Cabana Boy: Great Job for Networking, Tanning By Danielle Puma It is 7:30 a.m. on a Wednesday morning and the alarm starts to beep. Most people are getting ready to catch their train or to drive through lanes of traffic to get to the office. But for one young man in flip flops, he will be crossing the Atlantic Beach Bridge to head to Catalina Beach Club to spend his day working with an ocean view. Matt Appelbaum of Woodmere, 19, has been working as a cabana boy at the beach club for five years. He got the job after

learning that his father, Bruce, knew the two men who worked in the kitchen at Catalina. “My dad goes to John’s Coffee Shop in Cedarhurst all the time to eat breakfast. The guys there, Chris and Mike, ran the coffee shop back then and were the same guys that ran the kitchen here. They told my dad that

I should come down and apply for a job here. It’s good money. So that’s what I did.” His workday begins bright and early at 8:00 a.m. and his ﬁrst task is taking care of the 21 cabanas in his section. Appelbaum and his assistant both unlock all of the cabanas and pull out all of the chairs, lounges, and tables to set them up for members. After they clean off everything and ﬁll up the kiddie pools with fresh water, they make sure to sweep the sand out of the cabanas. There are some cabanas that they pay close attention to.

“We do something called presets which is for members that we know what they want already. We know that they want chairs and umbrellas on the beach. So we will pre-set everything in the morning before the members arrive. That way, they are all ready to go once they get here. It’s better for us because what tends to happen is something we call the rush.” Appelbaum said the rush begins around 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. when Catalina members

School Board Looking to Improve Performance Five Towns Gas Tracker

By Danielle Puma

he Lawrence School Board plans to implement changes by September to help improve the district’s overall test scores for the 2012-2013 academic year. The goal for the upcoming year is for teachers to work with students to increase results in both math and English Language Arts assessments and to improve overall student performance. According to The New York State Education Department, the district’s report card for the 2011-2012 school year was found to be in need of improvement in ELA. The subjects of math and science were both found to be in good standing for the academic year. Dr. David Sussman, a school board member, addressed concerns to Lawrence School District Superintendent Dr. Gary Schall. He said schools

care what the zip code says. If these kids can’t read, they aren’t passing math class, then they aren’t passing ELA,” she said. According to the board, there may be a reason why ELA and math scores vary between the Lawrence School District and other districts. “This is a complex issue. Years ago, [a teacher] here once told me that a quality teacher and a good principal is never surprised by a test. You said the zip code doesn’t matter, fortunately is does matter in the sense that we are severely underfunded. The city gets about $5,000 per year, per child, more than we get. So it’s up to us to replace that money,” said Sussman. “We will make bold steps come September,” said Schall. “Decisions that will change the course of the district.”

for political reasons, but the public needs to know the ongoing support that the administration keeps giving when it comes to the academic decisions that we made and the operational decisions that we made. I appreciate the support,” said Schall. After the adjournment of the meeting, a parent addressed her concern about her son’s ELA and math grades. She said the district needs more reading teachers to help improve test grades. “My son has fallen two years behind. He did not pass math, he came close to it. But if he raises his hand and participates in class, he gets a passing grade. And that’s across the board and that has got to stop. It hurts him. There’s no excuse. These kids need to read and write. Two reading teachers for 1,000 students are not enough. I don’t

that are in need of academic improvement is an issue that needs to be resolved. “Whatever you need to do to fix these schools, publically and privately, do what needs to be done by children who are getting the grades that they shouldn’t. If they do well on the test, or if they don’t do well on the test, it has to do with them. I know you’re up to the task. Whatever you need to fix this, fix it,” said Sussman. Schall said he is prepared to move the district forward but cannot announce these academic decisions until he has private conservations with the administrators, parents, and the union within the district. “I’m ready to move forward with very, very bold steps that some people might consider surprising.

Woodmere Blood Drive Collects 31 Units By Raimundo Ortiz

ummers are lean times for blood collection, a desperate need for blood arises due to schools being out as well as typical donors being away on vacation, according to Karen Boxer, the co-chairman of the Congregation Sons of Israel Blood drive that took place on Wednesday at 111 Irving Place in Woodmere. “We’re always short on blood this time of year, and summer is when we have the most critical need.” Boxer and Marcel Buchsbaum, another co-chairman of the blood drive sat at a table inside the Congregation Sons of Israel

facing the front door and wholeheartedly hoping Five Towns residents would ignore the downpour and donate some blood. To sweeten the pot, the ﬁrst 50 people to come in and give blood received a pair of Mets tickets to see them face the Pittsburgh Pirates on September 24th. Boxer and Buchsbaum worked in tandem with Binnie Stein, their Communications Director, to spread the word around the Five Towns as well as they could. The team advertised the blood drive on many local websites, posted ﬂyers, and traveled to all the Five Towns synagogues to announce it, which turned out to be their best bet. “It ended

up being that the word of mouth is even better than advertising,” said Boxer. “Our average is about 40 people,” said Buchsbaum. “We’ve had as many as 60 and as few as 20. So our goal is around 40, but they always tell us what we get is more than they would have had, so even one person is a success.” Before giving blood, it is crucial to read all the materials provided at various stations before seeing doctors. Many types of medications or products, “especially Propecia,” said Buchsbaum, can cause deformities in babies. Other tips before giving blood are to hydrate well, and donate on a full stomach to

avoid light-headedness. Karen Player, of Inwood, was one of the ﬁrst donors to arrive. “I give blood whenever I have an opportunity,” said Player. “It’s absolutely important because everyone needs it. All the little things you can do are important.” According to Boxer, one pint of blood can potentially save four lives. On Wednesday, Congregation Sons of Israel collected 31 units. “It really is amazing,” said Boxer. “People are so willing to do something for someone else, and the people they help will never know who did it. I’m just so happy to be a part of it.”

Special Needs Children Spend Summer With Shadows at JCC’s Camp Friendship

By Danielle Puma

he carefree days of summer were ﬁlled with music, swimming and smiles for the kids that attended Camp Friendship, a six-week day camp for special needs children run by the Jewish Community Center of the Greater Five Towns based in North Woodmere. In its sixth season, the camp’s activities incorporated new social skills that prepare children for the school year ahead.

For six weeks, parents would leave their children in the safe hands of volunteer counselors, also referred to as “Shadows” during the week from 12:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. The child’s camp experience came from people who speciﬁcally understand what they need on a one-on-one basis. Some campers were on a two-onone basis, depending on their individual needs. Gayle Fremed, Director of Special Needs at the JCC, said it is important for children with autism

or other developmental disabilities to have a routine created by the camp and understood by the Shadows. “Our camp sets these children up to succeed. If a kid comes in with autism, ADD, ADHD, Down Syndrome, or a physical issue, it’s important to know what they need. Shadows learn to generalize the overall disability and what it entails, and then be speciﬁc to the campers needs,” Fremed said. Fremed said the camp has to remain creative due to a limited budget. Campers spent their day at the park, swimming in the pool, or engaging in activities such as drama, music, and sports. The camp program also utilized free activities offered in the Town of Hempstead. “Some days we bring the kids to Eisenhower Park to play at the adaptive playground. It helps with the budget,” Fremed said. Other activities included “Theater Thursday” where campers

got to enjoy a movie and eat popcorn, and baking and cooking on Fridays. A social worker from the JCC was also at the camp this summer and focused on social skills. “Every Monday they would learn a different skill such as anti-bullying. It was our goal for them to take positive skills from camp and hopefully generalize it into their lives for the rest of the year,” Fremed said. “If they can sit and attend an activity in camp, they can attend better in school. They learned social skills through their Shadows and other campers. We see the growth. We know that happens.” To improve social skills further, swimming lessons were being offered to campers for the ﬁrst time this summer. Sharona Arbeit, the full-time lifeguard for the camp has been with returning campers for two consecutive summers. “It’s very hard for parents to get their kids swim lessons,” Fremed

said. “You need to ﬁnd someone who is willing to do it, to get the child in a situation where they can do it, and to get someone who understands how to do it. She knows their strengths and weaknesses. That made it very effective.” The one-on-one ratio allowed the camper and Shadow to form a close bond and instill an essential trust within the relationship. Lindsay Breslauer of Woodmere, 22, is working toward her Master’s Degree in Childhood Education and Special Education at New York University. She was a ﬁrst-time volunteer at the camp. “I can see with the camper I had, that she trusted me and respected me. I think that wouldn’t be the same if there were less Shadows and more campers. I think that having that really small ratio and forming a close bond is important for the campers and their social skills.” Volunteers ranged from middle school students to college

students. All Shadows, despite their age, understood the beneﬁt of working together as a team and forming a bond with their camper. On the camp’s ﬁnal day on August 3rd, campers and Shadows ended the summer season with a carnival. Different stations were set up and activities included balloon shaving, bowling, toss the sponge at the counselor, and a piñata. “This was the best group of kids that I’ve ever worked with. I was always so happy to be here,” Breslauer said. “These kids are amazing in every way and it’s so great to help build them into the people they will become.” Camp Friendship is partially funded by the Solon Summerfield Fund, the Kathryn and Alan Greenberg Day Camp Scholarship Fund of UJA-Federation of New York and by donations from supporters of the JCC.

The loss of the restaurant is devastating for Italian food lovers in The Five Towns, but the loss is also a reďŹ&#x201A;ection on how the demographics have changed. In a letter circulated by Viola, he explained the immense love and passion he has for the Village of Cedarhurst and its people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love people.

My family and I always enjoyed his family-style dinners because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how he treated us, like family,â&#x20AC;? said Parise. According to Parise, La Viola and other restaurants in The Five Towns have been having problems ďŹ nancially. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do not know if this has to do with his restaurant closing or not, others will have to make a judgment, but demographics deďŹ nitely have changed in the area,â&#x20AC;? said Parise. Glenn Gobetz, owner of the Italian casual eatery Mother Kellyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in Cedarhurst, said he has noticed a change in the area

over the years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The area that we are in is kosher so they are not supporting restaurants like us. I am friendly with Lino and the kids. But I am not worried about this affecting my business because we have a different clientele,â&#x20AC;? said Gobetz. Rino DeGennaro, owner of the Italian restaurant La Terrazza in Cedarhurst, said he has known Viola for years and enjoyed working around the corner from his restaurant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a very good relationship with Lino. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve known him for 11 years. Whenever he would need help at his restaurant, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d help him. He would help me out, too. I feel terrible that his restaurant closed. I think he needed a break, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not like we are getting any younger,â&#x20AC;? said

DeGennaro. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I have deďŹ nitely noticed a change over the last couple of years in the community. It has changed a lot.â&#x20AC;? After 35 years of being in the restaurant business, Viola has no plans to retire his love for food and the people he has grown to know over the years. La Viola has closed, but this will open up a new door to Violaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next ďŹ ne food endeavor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have been fortunate to have spent the last 35 years doing what I love doing most.Â This will not be the end of my restaurant passion.Â I will be looking to open another restaurant soon. The new location is still being planned, but you all will certainly be amongst the ďŹ rst to know,â&#x20AC;? said Viola. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope he does open a new

Catalina Cabana Boy: Great Job for Networking, Tanning CONTINUED FROM P. A4 Appelbaum said he can end up working until 10:00 p.m. some nights. “What honestly happens is that we don’t like to kick members out, so if they stay late, I’ll stay with them. Or any cabana boy would stay. I could be here at 8:00 a.m. and it may take me until 9:00 p.m. or 10:00 p.m. to leave. I’ve been here well over the time that I should be sometimes.” Appelbaum attends Towson University in Maryland and will be entering into his sophomore year this fall. His job as a cabana boy allows him the chance to talk with members that fall under different job descriptions. “It’s really great. Catalina is the best place to social-net-

work. I have members that are doctors or lawyers. One of my members is a medical examiner from New York City, and another owns a bunch of pharmacies. Right now, I am undecided for my major in college. So it’s great for me to talk with members and see what is out there. I talked about biology with a member yesterday. It’s really cool.” Members who come to Catalina Beach Club every summer can rest assured that they will be taken care of by the cabana boys. Appelbaum said he enjoys listening to the stories members tell him and each day brings along something new. But one thing is for certain; this cabana boy owes his tan to his summers spent on the beach. “That’s deﬁnitely one of the perks of working here.”

Hateful Graffiti at LIRR Station CONTINUED FROM P. A1 MTA police promptly removed the message, which was hand-written in different colored markers, after the incident was brought to their attention. “The removal of bias or offensive graffiti is a priority for the LIRR,” said Sam Zambuto, a spokesman for the MTA. “Our policy is to remove bias or offensive graffiti from LIRR stations as quickly as possible.” The MTA typically removes offensive graffiti within 24 hours of being notified. MTA police are currently investigating the bias writing at the Cedarhurst station. A spokesperson for Fourth Precinct Police said, “At this time we are not aware of any other bias graffiti patterns.” Cedarhurst Mayor Andrew J.

Parise said cops from the MTA cut out the sign that contained the message after they realized it could not be cleaned. “I resent seeing this sort of thing,” Parise said. “It’s unfortunate that people would write such hateful things, but these things happen.” Echoing police sentiment, Parise said that bias grafﬁti is not something he sees all that often. But when it does happen, the culprit is not usually caught, Parise said. “It’s very rare that we’ll ever catch anybody. It’s the sort of thing that just happens, and then you have to clean it up.” Parise urged citizens who witness any signs of vandalism to immediately report it to the police. “Unless you catch them in the act, there’s not much you can do about it,” he said.

Defending Nassau Champs LHS Practicing for Repeat By Raimundo Ortiz

mer New York Jets’ quarterback and current WFAN morning talk show host Boomer Esiason. “He played so well in the Boomer game that he got an offer to play at C.W. Post. He’s in their camp right now,” said Martillotti. “This year the focus is on defense,” Martillotti said. “We had three freshmen on the field defensively in the last game of the year. Now they’re back, bigger, more mature and stronger. A year of growth and maturity helps a lot.” After losing a player the caliber of Ryan Fredericks some regression is certain. Martillotti expects the improvements on defense to be a huge factor. “We scored that many points last year out of necessity,” said Martillotti. “We lost five starters by week five and we had to get into shootout type games to pick

he Golden Tornadoes of Lawrence kicked off their 2011-2012 Nassau County title defense Wednesday, when they held their ﬁrst practice of the season. Lawrence is bringing back six starters from their high-octane offense of last year, but will be missing one key cog from that potent attack, running back Ryan Fredericks. Ryan Fredericks accounted for 29 touchdowns last season, no small amount of production for an offense that racked up 44.2 points per game last year. Head Coach Joe Martillotti thinks that the Golden Tornadoes have enough skill position players returning to lessen blow. “Obviously with Ryan graduating it’s very tough to replace 29 touchdowns, but we have a bunch of guys returning that I think can pick up the slack.” Indeed, Lawrence is bringing back starting quarterback Joe Capobianco, Tyler and Jordan Fredericks, the two younger brothers of Ryan, as well as wide receiver and defensive back Eddie Robinson. Martillotti described Robinson as their number one possession receiver who can also “take it to the house anytime he touches the ball.” The one area of concern Martillotti has about his offense is the offensive line, where four

Raimundo Ortiz starters graduated from last year’s group. The one holdover, though, is the massive left tackle Islam Mohamed, who paved the way for many of the Fredericks brothers’ touchdowns and afforded Capobianco the time to throw his touchdown passes to Robinson. Mohamed, who has an offer to play Division I college ball at Cornell, will be expected to lead the new, youthful, line and keep the offense humming. Lawrence’s defense, which al-

lowed 25.1 points per game and was seen as the weak point of last year’s Golden Tornadoes, is bringing back nine starters. Chris Hercules, a star linebacker who was injured early last season, has graduated and defensive end Jake Bernstein is not expected to play this year, according to Martillotti. Hercules did eventually recover from his leg injury in time to play in the Empire Challenge, an All-Star game run by for-

up the slack.” In addition to the increased size and age of his defenders, Martillotti said he is seeing a sea change in their mentality. “Our guys on defense have definitely got a chip on their shoulder. They’re not happy about the way things went last year, especially in the last game (Lawrence fell to Sayville in the Long Island Class III championship game 78-61) so they have something to prove.” Robinson and linebacker Kenny Perez are being counted on to be the leaders of the unit without Hercules and Bernstein on the field. Coach Martillotti was also not allowing any sort of Nassau County championship hangover to set in. While the hot sun beat down on them, he had the Golden Tornadoes finish up their practice with 40-yard sprints, under the threat of additional running should the players not give it their all. After they had finished, some players were caught walking to the center of the field where the whole team meets. They were forced to run more, and warned that anyone who couldn’t run wouldn’t play. Lawrence opens up their regular season schedule on September 8th with a home game against Glen Cove followed by another home game against Lynbrook before they finally hit the road on September 21st with a trip to Bethpage.

Hewlett Putting ‘Fast Team’ on the Field for 2012 Season By Ryan Lavis

fter the Hewlett Bulldogs football team suffered a string of injuries last season – most notably that of quarterback Mark Rizzo, who ended his season early with a hurt hamstring – head coach Jay Iaquinta said the number one concern for his team going into the 2012 season is staying healthy. “We suffered some injuries last year, and that definitely set us back,” he said from the sidelines of George W. Hewlett High School’s football field Thursday morning, where his team held its second practice. “But we have a good, fast team this year, and I’m expecting great things from these kids.” Despite last year’s setbacks, the Bulldogs still managed to make it to the playoffs, putting together a 4-4 record in the regular season. The team was eliminated after losing to Lawrence 62-32 in the first round of the Conference III playoffs. The Bulldogs are entering this season with three heavy losses to the team due to graduation. Two-year All-County running back Sam Martorella, All-County linebacker and running back Gabe Rodriguez, and quarterback Mark Rizzo have all graduated from Hewlett. “Those are our three big loss-

es, but each year you lose kids that were key players the year before,” Iaquinta said. “You just expect new kids to step up and have a great season. No one is ever really irreplaceable.” Iaquinta also noted he did not get to utilize Rizzo as much as he would have liked during last year’s season due to injuries the senior suffered on the ﬁeld. But in his place, backup quarterback Zach Richman put together an impressive season, starting six games in Rizzo’s place. Richman, now entering his senior year, will start at quarterback in the 2012 season. “He had a great season last year, and really stepped in last minute when we needed him the most,” Iaquinta said. “He should be one of the better option quarterbacks we’ve had here in a long time. He’ll really be the difference

Bulldogs head coach Jay Iaquinta talking to his team at the end of their practice. maker in a lot of close games.” Also returning in an integral role for the offense is senior Weldon Irvine, who started last year as a wide receiver, kick returner and defensive back. At 6’3”, this senior honor student is also an All-Conference player for the Hewlett Basketball team. “He’ll be one of the few twoway starters, and should have a break out season receiving the

ball,” Iaquinta said. Starting linebacker and second leading tackler from last season, Woodley Augustine, will also resume his spot on the ﬁeld. “We expect him to pick up right where he left off,” Iaquinta said. Sophomore Jeremy Leguillow is also slated to step in as a starting running back, after he wowed coaches as a freshman last season, scoring two rushing touchdowns against Lawrence

in the 2011 playoffs. “He’s kind of like a phenom. He eats, sleeps and dreams football,” Iaquinta said, noting that Leguillow will be key to the Bulldogs offense as a wingback. He will also lead the secondary. On special teams, Zach Richman will once again take on the role of punt returner. Weldon Irvine will also return kickoffs. Richman, Irvine and Leguillow

Beth Sholom Falls 4-0 in Battle of Shul League Titans By Raimundo Ortiz

ick Wick and Beth Sholom, two undefeated Five Towns Shul League titans clashed Sunday, with Pick Wick emerging from the spirited scrap as 4-0 victors. Pick Wick starter Joe Eiesenberger started off the game in dominant fashion, quickly retiring the side in order and punctuating the top of the first inning by whiffing Beth Sholom’s number-three hitter Josh Heller. In the bottom of the first, Yehuda Konig took his familiar place atop the mound for Beth Sholom, but experienced unfamiliar results. Ephraim Templeman cracked a single right off the bat, and Evan Blachman followed that with a double to right center field. Konig induced a pop

up to ﬁrst base by Adam Ofman that stranded the runners on second and third, but Eisenberger helped his own cause by smoking a double of his own and driving in both Templeman and Blachman. The next

two batters flew out to the outfield and the first inning concluded with Beth Sholom down 2-0. In the top of the second inning, Eisenberger continued to mow through Beth Sholom’s batting order. After a routine groundout to shortstop by Neil Osrof, Ari Moskovic and Todd Soifer both scalded the ball but hit line drives directly at Pick Wick defenders to end the inning. In the bottom of the second, Konig surrendered a leadoff single to Ezzy Unger but returned to his usual form following the hit, racking up a strikeout and two groundouts to end the frame. After two, Pick Wick led 2-0. The top of the third proved frustrating for Beth Sholom’s offense once again. After two quick outs Jordan Slotnick

worked the count on Eisenberger and drew a walk, becoming Beth Sholom’s first base runner of the morning. Number ten hitter Yitz Roz failed to build on the opportunity though, and flew out to left field to end the top of the third. In the bottom of the third inning Blachman raked a one-out single into the outfield, his second hit of the game. After a fly ball out to center field by Ofman, Eisenberger drew a walk, and then Joe Davidson knocked him home on a double to center. Blachman was able to beat out a strong throw to home by the center fielder. The run gave Pick Wick a 3-0 advantage heading into the fourth inning. Beth Sholom leadoff hitter Alan Heller singled to start the

Beth Sholom Falls 4-0 in Battle of Shul League Titans CONTINUED FROM P. A6 fourth, wiping out Eisenberger’s bid for a no-hitter. Next, Konig hit a sharp grounder to short, where the ball was bobbled at second base. The umpire’s view was obstructed, however, and he ruled Heller out at second amid Beth Sholom’s furious and throaty disagreements. The play seemed to suck the life out of Beth Sholom, who looked to have finally built a small foundation of momentum. Josh Heller walked, but the next two batters hit routine flies to left field to end the threat without scoring. In the bottom of the inning Konig coughed up two singles but pitched around them to keep Pick Wick off the scoreboard. The top of the fifth was a busy half inning for Ofman who was manning left field for Pick Wick. Todd Soifer led off with Beth Sholom’s second hit of the morning, a single to left. Jeff Spivak then hit the ball hard and fairly deep to left field, but Ofman was able

Iaquinta said Bulldog football is no stranger to utilizing soccer players, noting this is about the twelfth year the team has used soccer players. Iaquinta said this year’s schedule will once again put his boys up against some tough opponents. The opening game, which takes place September 8th, will be at Bethpage. Things don’t get much easier after that, when the Bulldogs will take on Plainedge Lawrence. Just like last season, the Bulldogs plan on running the triple option. Iaquinta said he wants to see his team throw the ball more this year. But his main focus going into the 2012 season will be to prevent turnovers and to avoid giving up big plays on the defensive end. “We gave up a number of big plays for touchdowns last year. We need to tighten up that defense and give up as little as possible,” he said. “We need to have a bend but don’t break philosophy.” And as for this year’s team, Iaquinta said the speed of the Bulldogs should play a huge role in their success. “This is probably the fastest team we’ve had in a few years. It’s deﬁnitely an exciting team.”

to track it down and make a nice running grab. After a fielder’s choice by Greg Telsey, Slotnick tested Ofman in left field as well, who passed with flying colors by making a nifty catch near the line. In the bottom of the fifth, after a fly out to right field by Blachman, Ofman’s fine defense translated into an impressive show of offense. He drilled a Konig pitch hard and low into center field and the ball skipped under the fielder’s glove, rolling far away from the diamond. As he chased after the ball, Ofman motored around the base paths, eventually scoring with ease on a solo home run. That run would be the last Pick Wick would score in the 4-0 triumph. The only base runner Beth Sholom would have the rest of the way was Konig, who drew a one-out walk in the bottom of the sixth. Pick Wick’s Eisenberger finished with a complete-game, two-hit shutout with three strikeouts.

Arrivederci, La Viola

e were saddened to see an email early Thursday morning from Lino Viola, the distinguished proprietor of Cedarhurst’s La Viola restaurant saying that after 35 years in town he and his wife would be closing the landmark eatery. La Viola occupied an anchor space on the Chestnut Street “Restaurant Row” across from the LIRR station and Cedarhurst (now Parise) Park that at one time housed Al Steiner’s Steak House. Before 1990, La Viola was located a short distance away but moved into the then-vacant Steiner’s space after a ﬁre. Serving Five Towners since 1977, La Viola was one of those seemingly enduring establishments – so much so that on that 1983 cartoon map of The Five Towns, La Viola was there then and here now. Unfortunately capitalism is a brutal, Darwinian affair. Generations change, as do their tastes. Demographics shift in tandem with the movement of those generations (this is true for most of America, not just The Five Towns). Eulogizing Lino Viola is easy – he has been a stalwart pillar of the community as a merchant and public servant – a gracious host and a class act. Lino promises to return with another restaurant. We suggest he try kosher Italian meat cuisine – outside of Manhattan’s Tevere 84, there isn’t a good place to get some great kosher veal piccata or osso bucco. But whatever endeavor he aspires to, we wish him well.

Kudos for HewlettWoodmere Business Assn.

he newly formed Hewlett-Woodmere Business Association (a recent merger between the Woodmere and Hewlett Merchants’ associations) seems to be off and running to an ambitious start. They’re getting Hewlett High School students to adopt those pretty planters on Broadway, forging ahead with attractive banners on the light poles and more signiﬁcantly, planning events to bring people out onto Broadway – in the works are a car show in September and an Arts Fair in October along with long-range plans to resurrect a Memorial Day Parade for next spring. Local businesspeople are to be commended for volunteering their time and money for the greater good of the community and saluted for undertaking creative and ambitious projects that require a lot of sweat and imagination. It is no secret that Woodmere in particular looks like a Southwestern gold rush ghost town or like a prize ﬁghter or football player who just got half his teeth knocked out. Woodmere needs to be re-invented and as we’ve suggested in this space before, Rockville Centre’s example should be followed in that Broadway should become a “Food Court,” a center for dining and drinking featuring many restaurants with sliding front doors spilling out to sidewalk cafes. In the internet age, small boutiques are not that viable, but people still need and want to eat. In this regard, Lawrence’s small slice of Central Avenue has achieved this as it is now home to a great many eateries and nary a vacancy. That’s the way for Woodmere to go. Whatever the Town of Hempstead can do to facilitate and encourage this would be most wise.

Civility and Polarization

ith less than 90 days until the November election we’ve been seeing no end of polarizing, slanderous, highly attenuated invectives being pejoratively hurled by the presidential candidates. Allusions to slavery, extremism, class warfare and more have been endemic. You can’t turn on the TV or go to the web without all this in your face. Our sense is that this will probably turn-off potential voters, not motivate folks to head down to the polls. As it is probably only 60 percent of eligible voters will turn out. This is shaping-up to be one nasty slugfest that is seeing the nation riven politically on a scale probably not seen since before the Civil War. The divide between Democrats and Republicans now is more than about policy differences – we’ve entered into a new age of ideology (on both sides) akin to Labor and the Conservatives in England or the Socialists and Christian Democrats in Germany. Exacerbating ideology is also a religio-cultural schism pitting “Red” states – those where a majority of the population identiﬁes itself as religious against “Blue” states where most residents see themselves as secular. Secularism versus religiosity colors one’s entire world and life view and this has mated with Liberalism and Conservatism to magnify ideologies on a political and societal level. Through much of the 20th Century this was not the case as Congress (along with whoever occupied The White House) often put ideology aside and engaged in lengthy sessions of horse trading and back-scratching across the isle (and bi-partisanship in foreign policy) to get things done. Now these kinds of politicians are derided by both parties as ideological purity and party discipline have made Congress seem like the British parliament (but without the eloquence or posh accents). November’s choices will be clear and stark. We’ve probably not had a more important national election in quite some time – probably not since the Jimmy Carter-Ronald Reagan race. Hang on kids, it’s going to be quite a thrill ride between now and November 6th.

LIBERAL VOICE

DYING (KILLING) DEMOCRACY By Leonard Hoffman

robably the stupidest way to get yourself arrested and jailed is fraudulently voting under someone else’s name, particularly in a presidential election. Spit in the ocean and you’ll have a greater effect. With millions of people voting in every state, a handful of people vote fraudulently, because there is no direct personal benefit, and because the penalty is five years imprisonment. Consequently, every voter ID law passed by Republicans in the country on the pretense of voter-fraud prevention has as its single purpose that of suppressing voter turnout. The only thing more stupid than voting fraudulently is believing that there is actually a voter fraud problem serious enough to necessitate that voters carry a photo ID. Republicans know that their agenda is so unwelcome for the average person that the only way to win the election is to suppress votes. Seventyfive to 80 percent of people hold the valid photo ID generally required under these new laws. Photo ID is disproportionately not held by inner city residents without driver’s licenses, poor people who can’t afford cars and elderly people who can’t drive anymore. A student interviewed on TV from Bryn Mawr College has an ID, but without an expiration date, it is invalid. The school said they will be adding expiration dates to satisfy Pennsylvania law. Famously, (for those who are paying attention) a Pennsylvania official cited the voter ID laws instituted there as the way Mitt Romney will win the presidency -- Done. Pennsylvania has been described as “Philadelphia and Pittsburgh with Alabama in between them.” Most of the people affected by the new law are Philadelphia residents -- poor, old and/or black. You may agree with Republican legislators that they don’t deserve a voice in our democracy. Republicans are relying on a series of lies to win the presidency and majorities in Congress. It is hard to believe that they are still running with the “you did not build that” out of context edited quote but this is what we have got in our shining city on a hill. The “liberal media “is almost

fully complicit in this project. They are extremely happy to rake in billions of dollars of advertising revenue and prefer a horse race to any particular outcome. So instead of reporting that the voter suppression laws affect primarily Democratic voters, the media reports that “Republicans say this -Democrats say that -- what do you think? Tweet us your opinion.” How apropos a name for a country turning into a nation of twits! This would be amusing if the stakes were not so serious. Hundreds of millions of dollars from Republicans billionaires are pouring in as an investment. Keep tax rates low. Drop environmental regulations. Hand over federal lands for private exploration or exploitation. Misinform voters and keep them working too hard to even take time off to vote. We hold elections on a Tuesday. In order to go for a valid photo ID one must take off from work to get it and sometimes one must take off from work to get documentation that will allow him to get the ID. Elderly people misplace their birth certiﬁcates and marriage licenses. Many people are inﬁrm or uninformed. All of these laws are passed to suppress the vote. None of this is disputable. You can lie around it just like Mitt Romney taking a few words of Obama’s speech out of context and building a campaign around it. President Obama may have to display reasonable anger while not being branded an “Angry black man.” If he tries to remain reasonable with all of this unreasonableness going on, people will continue to tune out and believe the most frequently promoted lie. With Super PACs owning the airwaves in the next few months, there is no question whose ads and lies will be run more frequently. Romney and his wife on separate occasions said “it’s our turn now.” Does the average American know that the economic and foreign policy advisers of Romney’s campaign are virtually identical to the ones that led the Bush administration into the “ditch?” I’ll bet that the “reporters” on FOX News have not told them. CNN is covering the war in Syria. Unfortunately, they don’t rec-

Bold Choice, Risky Choice By Joel Moskowitz

here is a legend about Richard Nixon who when asked why he chose Spiro T. Agnew as his vice presidential running mate said that he was his insurance policy against assassination. Candidates have their reasons for their choice of running mate but rarely has an election been decided on that choice. One could argue that JFK’s selection of Lyndon Johnson delivered Texas for the ticket and thus in a close race made the difference in 1960, deﬁnitely an exception and not the rule. Most other times it reveals a candidate’s strategic thinking. Ronald Reagan chose George H.W. Bush to allay the fears of the moderates in his party that he was too extreme. Bush in turn chose Dan Quayle in a nod to the conservatives in his party who distrusted him when he was the nominee. I believe both would have won even with other running mates. Walter Mondale, who must have had a clue that he was unlikely to beat Reagan in 1984, chose Geraldine Ferraro, the ﬁrst woman on a national ticket, to try and shake things up. It didn’t work and based on the size of his loss, a more conventional choice would not have made a difference in the outcome. Most famously, John McCain realized that despite his years of service, record of independence and his war hero resume, he needed a “game changer” to beat a charismatic African American Democrat after eight years

of George W Bush. The choice of Sarah Palin was bold but didn’t save his candidacy. I would argue that it didn’t hurt him either; the Democrats were poised to win the 2008 election because of the economy anyway. This election might prove to be different. Mitt Romney’s choice of Congressman Paul Ryan is bold and despite the punditry proclaiming him to be too conservative and too right wing, he might just make the difference. Ryan is unlikely to deliver his state of Wisconsin, the way, say, Senator Rob Portman would have helped deliver Ohio, a crucial swing state, but he definitely strengthens Romney’s conservative credentials. Let’s face it, the 40 percent that would vote Republican no matter what is not who Romney is trying to sway. And Ryan will certainly not change the minds of the 40 percent who will vote for Obama no matter what. The fight now is for the undecided and the selection of Ryan is a declaration by Romney that this race is exclusively about the economy. Ryan is known for his cost slashing budget proposals and gives Romney instant credibility for those who favor an overhaul in entitlement programs. He certainly will have a hard time painting the president who killed Osama and the Somali pirates as weak on defense. I, for one am happy with the selection of Ryan. It makes evaluating the tickets easier. There are no hidden agendas or secrets. Romney has declared that tax cuts and spending cuts will be how he governs on budgetary issues. Obama has proven that stimulus, spending and tax increases on the rich are his preference for the economy. Finally, Ryan provides Romney with the one thing he desperately lacks, coolness. Ryan, like Obama is a cool guy, someone people can relate to, yes in the way that many do Obama. The question now is whether he is cool enough to carry Romney into the Oval Office.

t is official: the summer is over. It might sound harsh, and you may not have wanted to hear it, but it is the truth. Do not let the humidity or the heat fool you. All the plans I had for my summer are over and each conversation I have about the months to come simply prove I am this close to breaking out my leggings and sweaters. Recently speaking to someone in the garment industry, he explained how they were working feverishly on their spring line. “Spring?” I said, disbelief in my voice. Forget the summer being over, it seemed the winter was as well. Like many people, my summer is not complete without baseball. While unable to watch most of the Olympics, limited to catching only brief highlights, I made sure to attend as many Brooklyn Cyclone games as possible. Their minor league rating should not fool you -games are great, the event is fun and a good time is had by all. With a park of that size and every seat having a great view, it is hard not to enjoy yourself. Most importantly, you can bring your family without breaking the bank. It is also the perfect opportunity to teach kids about baseball and condition them for a major league game, where the stadiums are often intimidating and everything costs more than it should. Taking our kids to a Yankees or Mets game comes only after they have graduated from the minors. Of course, it is pretty hard not to make it through a game with flying colors when we bring enough entertainment with us to occupy them through all nine innings. For some reason, the baseball game itself is not enough to keep them interested. Because I know a number of adults who have likened the excitement of watching a baseball game to watching grass grow, I understand how some of my kids may not find it as interesting as I do. With video games in hand, therefore, we settle into our seats and enjoy the game while they pay minimal attention to the on-field activities. We engage them in discussion, point out exciting plays and teach them the rules as we go along, though we cannot compete with Angry Birds. It seems striking a batter out with a full count and loaded bases is not nearly as enthralling as shooting virtual birds with a slingshot. At one point during the most recent game to which we brought our children, my youngest son hardly looked up from his game to watch the live excitement in front of him. “Are you having a good time?” I asked him, to which he responded that he was. “Do you even know there’s a game going on?” I

Staying Safe…at Home and Abroad Cuomo Wrong on Special Needs Kids By Carolyn McCarthy

ou don’t have to look far in any newspaper or on any newscast to see very clearly that we live in a dangerous world, whether it’s here at home or around the globe. Within the past month alone, two horrific mass shootings have struck our nation, terrorists carried out a brutal attack on Israeli tourists in Bulgaria, Iran is showing no signs of turning back its nuclear program and the world has seen escalating levels of violence against civilians in Syria – just to name a few recent developments. Many people in positions to influence policy or public opinion retreat from situations like these, afraid to take on what are undoubtedly very difficult situations. But leadership is about making tough decisions and taking action to address a problem, rather than accept the status quo and letting the problem get worse.

Staying Safe Abroad To address one of our most dire threats abroad, I’m proud to have voted for the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, which includes the strongest set of sanctions ever enacted to isolate any country with which the United States was not in armed hostilities. We need to do everything we can in our power to make sure that Iran does not gain the ability to arm itself with nuclear weapons that it can use to threaten its neighbors, starting with Israel and our other allies in the region. This bill will also help put more international scrutiny on the escalating humanitarian crisis in Syria, which the region will need to unite around in order to address the problem. To further push back on and work to prevent a nuclear Iran that so many nations in the world fear, I joined many of my colleagues recently in writing to President Obama to urge him to take forceful steps to discourage our allies around the globe from purchasing Iranian crude oil, which helps ﬁnance the rogue nation’s nuclear aspirations. And the recent attacks on Israeli tourists in Bulgaria, and on Egyptian soldiers in the Sinai Peninsula in which perpetrators crossed over into Israeli territo-

ry, illustrate just how volatile and dangerous the region continues to be for Israel, our other allies and our own citizens in the region. These incidents show dangerous cracks in the region’s security infrastructure that the U.S. needs to take a lead in advocating to repair. But they also show the need for all nations, starting with our own, to protect our own Jewish communities right here at home, even at the neighborhood level. I have repeatedly fought for increasing Homeland Security funding to protect our local religious institutions and to help fund our local firstresponders like firefighters and police. You can be sure that I will continue to do so.

Staying Safe at Home And on the topic of gun violence here at home, we hear repeatedly from the National Riﬂe Association’s leadership, after mass shootings like the recent ones in Colorado and Wisconsin, that now is not the time for politics, but to mourn for the victims. But this isn’t politics. Commonsense gun laws are about addressing a public safety epidemic that demands attention and solutions, not a blind eye. Gun violence and mass shootings won’t go away or lessen in frequency or severity if we ignore them. But we can save lives if we do something. There is no greater tribute to victims of gun violence than working to reduce it. And after losing my husband and almost losing my son in a mass shooting here in Nassau County, I speak on behalf of victims of gun violence everywhere when I say that enough is enough – we’re tired of the silence that reverberates through the halls of power and from too many of our public ofﬁcials when it comes to reducing gun violence. As one of the few people in Washington not afraid to stand up to the nation’s corporate gun manufacturing lobby, I’ve introduced several pieces of legislation that the anti-violence advocacy community, many of my colleagues and I think could save lives and reduce injuries in our nation. H.R. 308 is my bill to ban the sale or transfer of high-capacity ammunition magazines such as the ones used in every single mass shooting in recent history, including those in Wisconsin,

Carolyn McCarthy is the Congresswoman for the 4th Congressional District, covering parts of Nassau County including The Five Towns. She is a member of the Education and Workforce Committee as well as the Financial Services Committee, and is ranking member of the International Monetary Policy and Trade Subcommittee.

Colorado, Tucson Arizona and even Norway, where the shooter bought his magazines from the United States via mail order because they were illegal in his own country. In many recent mass shootings, including in last year’s assassination attempt against my colleague Gabby Giffords and in the 1993 Long Island Railroad shooting that we here on Long Island are all very familiar with, the shooting stopped only when the shooter ran out of bullets or stopped to change magazines. Law enforcement experts agree that cutting down the number of bullets in a magazine is a simple and effective way to save lives and reduce injuries in these events. In last month’s movie theater shooting in Colorado, the shooter’s 100-round drum magazine enabled him to ﬁre off enough shots to hit 70 people, before his gun jammed. He was stopped shortly after his magazine failed. I also introduced the Fix Gun Checks Act – a bill that’s a priority for the bipartisan, nationwide Mayors Against Illegal Guns. It requires a background check for every gun sale in America, closing the dangerous gun show loophole that’s putting guns in the hands of criminals everywhere. It also strengthens that background check system by creating a system of incentives and penalties for states to keep the national database up-to-date so fewer criminals and dangerous people fall through the cracks. The main principle behind this commonsense legislation – a reliable background check for every sale – is supported by over 80 percent of gun owners in America, according to a recent bipartisan poll of over 900 gun owners. And my Stop Online Ammunition Sales Act would bring more accountability and security to our nation’s ammunition sales, by requiring sellers to be licensed, requiring purchasers to buy in-person with a photo ID, and requiring sellers to report bulk sales to authorities. The shooter in the Colorado movie theater shooting had stockpiled over 6,000 rounds of ammunition, all acquired anonymously online, before his rampage that killed 12 and injured 58. There’s no reason anybody should be able to stockpile that kind of arsenal without any kind of recordkeeping whatsoever. Whether it’s abroad or here at home, we can’t stop every single evil person, or stop every single act of violence in our world. But we can’t throw our hands up and give up either. People of good conscience can – and must – do something to ﬁght for our safety and security.

To the Editor, In reference to your article “Dems Put-up 24 Year-Old to Face Skelos” (August 10th), please correct some errors. Although it reports my saying that “it’s too early in the election season to make a decision on whether he supports the nomination of Feffer,” what I said to the reporter when he called me to ask my opinion of the nominee is that I had no opinion because I did not yet “know enough about Feffer and his policies” (this was accurately reported). As a Democrat, I assuredly support our candidate -- in fact, at the Nassau County Democratic nominating convention he was the only nominee for NYS Senator (9th S.D.) and as a Com-

mittee member I voted for his nomination. Indeed, I carried Nominating Petitions to place his name on the November ballot. So of course I support Mr. Feffer. In addition to party loyalty, however, I truly believe New York State would be better off with a Democratic majority in the Senate to support the legislation passed by the Democratic majority in the Assembly and the policies of Governor Cuomo. Together they would be a forward thinking team on behalf of the progressive economic and social policies New York State needs and deserves. Lastly, I am incorrectly identiﬁed as the President of the Five Towns Democratic Club; I completed a 4-year term in that ofﬁce two years ago. Currently leading the Five Towns Demo-

In politics it is often said that reasonable minds can differ. But when the interests of special needs children are placed behind the demands of a powerful union, it strains every rule of common sense – to say nothing of common decency – to describe the outcome as reasonable. It further strains one’s belief in the reasonableness of our politics to learn that the mind that arrived at this conclusion is none other than the Governor of the State of New York. Under New York law, specialneeds children must be educated by public school districts based on a “consultation process” that is “in consideration of the individual needs of the student.” The standard for determining the program that best meets those needs has long been deﬁned as whatever provides the child with the “least restrictive environment.” If you were a reasonable person with a reasonable mind, you would probably conclude that a child’s background is a legitimate factor in determining the “least restrictive environment.” After all, we have English as a Second Language instruction for Spanish-speaking children, remedial instruction for academically challenged children and any number of other programs designed to give each child the very best chance of success. Well, if you thought that, you’d be wrong. Because here in New York, while districts must take a special-needs child’s language skills into account and their academic skills into account and their physical disabil-

ities into account, there is one thing that many districts refuse to take into account. And that is the child’s religion. Let us differ, as reasonable minds often do, on the issue of God, Physics, Christopher Hitchens, Existentialism and Pope Benedict. People have been debating the validity of religion long before any of us were around and they will continue to do so long after we are all buried and forgotten. But one thing should be obvious to one and all: a child’s “least restrictive environment” is the environment in which they feel most comfortable, and it is awfully hard to feel comfortable in a place where you are different. How comfortable would a white, black or Hispanic specialneeds child feel in a classroom ﬁlled with Hasidic Jews? That’s how comfortable a Hasidic special-needs child feels in a classroom ﬁlled with whites, blacks and Hispanics. “Hey,” you might think, “no one told them to be Hasidic, let ‘em take the program offered or let ‘em pay for it themselves.” Except that in the United States of America this is not a point where reasonable minds can differ. People have the right to choose their faith, they have the right to see that faith respected by their government – and if they have a special-needs child in New York they have the right to place that child in the “least restrictive environment”. In order to put this issue to rest once and for all, a law was proposed stating that the educational program for a specialneeds child “shall take into account any possible educational impact differences between

the school environment and the child’s home environment and … shall include documentation as to whether these factors would affect the child’s ability to learn.” In a system that strives to place a special-needs child in the least restrictive environment, that language should be obvious, beyond the need for legislation. And, to their credit, the State’s Assembly and Senate adopted the law by lop-sided majorities. Only then the law landed on Governor Cuomo’s desk. Opponents of the law claimed that this provision would create an “unfunded mandate.” Districts that heretofore have denied reimbursement would now have to pay for religious instruction. Anyone with even a passing familiarity with this issue knows that this is pure nonsense. First of all, we never pay for religious instruction – there is a 19th century relic called the Blaine Amendment that makes sure of that. We merely pay for the secular portion of instruction in a special-needs program tailored for kids with a religious background. Unfunded mandate? The opposite is the case. We found in our District, as I am sure every other District has found, that it costs more to deny reimbursement to special-needs kids from religious homes. This is because all reasonable and unreasonable minds in the United State of America share one thing in common: when confronted with a monstrous injustice they hire a lawyer. When our Board ended the practice of ﬁghting these cases we found that the savings in legal fees more than paid for the educational services. None of this is unknown to the Governor. What trumps everything in the debate is the position of the Teachers Union.

Ahoy, Mateys! Spend A Day At Sea! Our Anglers’ Guide to Nearby Fishing Day Trips and Charters

Get of f your Lounge Chair or Pool Float and Catch some Dinner! By Ryan Lavis, Danielle Puma and Raimundo Ortiz

Capt. Bill graduated from SUNY Oneonta with a BA in Science Education. He earned his Captain’s license in 2009 and started to charter fishing trips. His business operates from April 1 to December 1. Trips vary in price, and there is a four-person limit on the ship. A four-hour jaunt on the bay costs $65 per person, while eight hours runs $100 per person. Ocean fishing ranges from $85 a head for four hours, to $140 for eight hours. There are also special shark trips where Capt. Bill will bring his crew up to 25 miles offshore – at a cost of $225 per person. Trips include bait, tackle, iced coolers, rods and reel. And Capt. Bill also offers to fillet your catch back at the dock. For additional information, call (516) 761-3778.

hile the summer season may be in its last few weeks, residents throughout The Five Towns still have time to earn their sea legs from the many charter-fishing businesses located throughout Long Island. Whether you’re a youngster looking to cast a line in the water for the first time, or a salty maven of the high seas, there are several affordable and friendly options from Freeport, to Point Lookout to Oceanside, and even Babylon. Located alongside Woodcleft Canal on Woodcleft Avenue, Freeport’s Nautical Mile is a haven for fishing that’s only about eight miles east of Hewlett. Fishing charters are also a short drive away in Point Lookout, Oceanside, and Babylon. This summer’s warm temperatures have led to ideal fishing conditions in the waters off Jones Beach and Long Beach, where fluke and bass have been abundant throughout the season. If you’re looking to go on a spur of the moment fishing trip with some buddies or take the kids out for an affordable afternoon on the water, just take a look at the options below. Then grab your rod, a trawl and some bait. And don’t forget to pack that cooler of beer, because nothing feels better than casting a line in the water, popping open a cold one and waiting to see what bites under the hot summer sun.

Captain Lou’s Fleet: The ﬁrst stop on our voyage for all you seafaring Five Towners is Captain Lou’s ﬂeet in Freeport. Lou has trips daily on the Captain Lou VII, an 85-foot boat, and the Starstream VIII, which clocks in at a whopping 110 feet. The Starstream VIII sails daily, offering two half-day trips from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. for the early birds, and from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The Starstream VIII is open to the public — a half-day trip will run adults $40, children $30, and senior citizens $35.

The price includes bait and tackle, while a rod rental will cost a small fee of three dollars. The StarstreamVIII also offers specials. Senior citizens fish for $20.00 on Mondays, children for $20.00 on Tuesdays, and ladies get the same discount on Wednesdays. The other boat, the Captain Lou VII, runs five days a week with the trips priced the same. Anglers aboard the Captain

Take a break from watching movies all day and jump onto Freeport’s boat, The Codfather. Located along Long Island’s South Shore fishing Mecca, The Codfather launches daily from Woodcleft Avenue, near the Woodcleft Fishing Station. Its owner, Capt. Mike Barnett, has over 30 years of professional fishing experience. He ran a part time charter boat for ten years, from 1975-1985 while he worked in advertising for the New York Daily News. Then, in 1985, he obtained his captain’s license. He began chartering boats full-time in 1987, when The Codfather first opened. He now mans his 32-foot custom J.C. Boat, which has just been repowered with a 370HP Yanmar Diesel to cruise the water at 20 knots. Capt. Mike offers two types of trips for his customers. A full day, inshore trip costs about $700, and is available Monday through Friday. This excursion, which can carry up to six people and travels about a mile from the dock, runs from 6:30 a.m. to about 3:30 p.m. The $700 admission price is a flat rate and does not depend on the number of people in your party. Capt. Mike recommends bringing some friends, rather than traveling

Two happy people show off their catch of the day while sailing on a boat at Captree Northstar 2 Fishing in Babylon.

Half-day trips are also available, and typically cost about $450. There are also offshore options, which run from $950-$1,300, depending on the distance of the trip. Chums casting their lines on an inshore trip can expect to catch a variety of aquatic life, including fluke, seas bass, striped bass and blue fish. Offshore fish typically caught in the summer months include tuna and shark. Capt. Mike provides bait, tackle and rods, although he said customers could bring their own if preferred. For additional information on The Codfather, call Capt. Mike at (516) 868-9073, or visit the website at www.codfatherfishing.com

Superhawk Fishing If you’d prefer to steer your vessel away from the shores of Freeport, Superhawk Fishing located at 10 Lido Boulevard in Point Lookout, is a great spot for novice anglers to spend an afternoon. The Super Hawk, a 75-foot boat that is open to the public seven days a week, takes two trips a day from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and from 1:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. These half-day trips cost $42 for adults, $39 for senior citizens, and $28 for kids. While out on the water, customers are able to fish for sea bass, fluke, and blue fish. All trips on the Super Hawk include free bait, fishing rods, reels, tackle, and ice. The Super Hawk is about more than just fishing. At night, moonlight cruises are offered on the Super Hawk. The moonlight cruises are fourhour tours of the bay for up to 130 people with tables, seating, and a large dance floor. The moonlight charter cruises range from $900 to $1,200 and according to Captain Steve Kearny, DJs and catering are available on request. For additional information please call (516) 795-6355.

“It was a great Olympics – Team USA ﬁnished the games with 17 more medals than China. China said it was tough to swallow – especially when they had to make all of our “We’re #1” T-shirts.”

–Jimmy Fallon “Wasn’t it thrilling when the U.S. Women’s team took home the gold in gymnastics? A group of American teenagers getting a higher score than Chinese kids? That never happens.”

–Jay Leno “Congratulations to Mexico. They upset Brazil to win a gold medal in men’s soccer. And after the Olympics ended, the Mexican soccer team, of course, returned home to their houses here in Los Angeles.”

–Jay Leno “It’s now come out just before his record-breaking 100-meter dash, gold medalist Usain Bolt ate at McDonald’s. Apparently he timed his meal so when the race started he would have exactly 9.63 seconds to get to a toilet.”

–Conan O’Brien “I like the looks of this Paul

Ryan, the representative from Wisconsin. He reminds me of who your sister would date in college. He looks like one of those guys who pretends to be a doctor on an infomercial. He reminds me of the guy at Olive Garden who comes over to see how everything was.”

–David Letterman “On Sunday, Mitt Romney chose Paul Ryan as his running mate. Forty-three percent of Americans have never heard of Ryan and the others thought he was the private that Tom Hanks brought home from Normandy.”

–Jimmy Kimmel “Paul Ryan, like Mitt Romney, and like President Obama and like Joe Biden, is a good family man. We have four good family men in this presidential race. See, what about me? I don’t need family men, I have a monologue. I need more Herman Cains, I need John Edwards.”

–David Letterman “New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is going to be the keynote speaker at the Republican National Convention, and wherever Chris Christie goes you know what that means. That’s right, unlimited bread sticks.”

–David Letterman “I think Chris Christie is a good choice for the keynote speaker. I mean, is there a better symbol for belt tightening than Chris Christie?”

LIBERAL VOICE

Dying (Killing) Democracy CONTINUED FROM P. A8 ognize the people on their political shows are engaged in a class war against the average American. Or, perhaps they do.

But the programming executives don’t consider themselves average Americans. If you are reading this you are not an average American. You have time to read and you have an incli-

nation to stay informed. Then again, you may care more about who wins the World Series or Olympic gold then what happens in somewhat more important competitions.

DEAR THAT'S LIFE

Once in a Lifetime? Not. CONTINUED FROM P. A8 asked incredulously. Without looking up, he uttered a “Very funny, Ma,” keeping his eyes fixated on the screen before him. I rolled my eyes. Regardless, it seemed to have been a very exciting week for baseball lovers in my life, as strange things kept on happening. A friend of mine was given front row seats to a Mets game and brought two of his sons. During the game, the first major league game of their lives, they each caught fly balls. His post on Facebook wondered how he could convince his kids that this experience was one in a million, and that every game did not come with front row seats and fly balls. There was no way they would believe him. Twice this summer I had the privilege (yes: that is the right word) of taking a few people to their first Yankee games. When I brought my friend into the stadium, he just looked around at the multitude of lights, the massive screens and the hustle and bustle of the crowd. “It’s like Vegas,” he said, a tinge of disbelief

in his voice. I laughed. Most recently, I went with my cousin and his two eldest daughters who were visiting from Israel. They had just been to Dodger Stadium where they saw their first major league game and were now in New York, about to watch their second. Their first game had been unique, specifically because there was a grandslam. My cousin tried to impress upon them how rare it is to see a grand-slam and how they should not think it happens at every game. He actually made a very big deal about it. The girls were just about to believe him -- and then Nick Swisher hit a grand-slam, blowing our game wide open. They turned to their father in disbelief, but there was nothing to say. He had no credibility whatsoever, as the evidence seemed to show that he was wrong. To them, it must happen at every game. Two major league games and two grandslams. If that’s not a “Welcome to Major League Baseball,” I do not know what is. But here’s an idea: How about seeing a grandslam and then being on the jum-

bo-tron in left ﬁeld? Right before the Yankees went to bat in the bottom of the eighth, a camera man arrived right in front of our seats. Within minutes, our smiling faces and waving hands were up on the larger than life screen. After he walked away, I turned to the girls and tried to convince them this did not happen at every game. “I have sat in these seats a bunch of times,” I said with untold excitement “and have been to countless games in my lifetime and have never been on the jumbo-tron. This is better than being on FOX!” “It’s really cool,” said his eldest daughter in semi-agreement, though I was still much more excited than she was. I could not help thinking that she did not get this was a really big deal. But to be fair, after all she had already seen and had been promised was literally once in a lifetime, I could not blame her. The most unlikely things had already happened right before her eyes. Knowing these kids, they’ll see a the tooth-fairy, the Abominable Snowman, Elvis and a hattrick -- all before May.

SOAPBOX

Cuomo Wrong on Special Needs Kids CONTINUED FROM P. A9 When Districts take into account all aspects of a special-needs child’s background, including religion, it results in fewer such children placed in public school settings. And that means fewer unionized teachers. I respect the rights of teachers to unionize and their right to defend their economic interests. What I cannot defend is a Governor that places those econom-

ic interests above the far more compelling interests of Districts and the special-needs children they serve. And when a Governor feels he can place the special interests of unions above those of children, it is time for all of us to send a message to that Governor. We can do so this November. No, we won’t be voting for Governor this time around. But we can vote for Republican candidates that understand that chil-

dren come ﬁrst. The tone of the Obama Administration towards Israel changed markedly after Republican Bob Turner won the special election for Anthony Weiner’s Congressional seat. If enough of us turn out, this Governor might experience a similar epiphany. And then we’ll have a Special Education system that serves the needs of all the kids. Now there’s something upon which all reasonable minds can agree.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR CONTINUED FROM P. A9 better teacher. This is just plain ignorant and ageist. I ﬁnd myself in a bit of a unique situation in that I am middle aged yet relatively new to the New York City Public School system having only been teaching for six years. For the most part, my colleagues and I have habituated ourselves to the continuous teacher bashing, and continue to serve our population of students to the best of our ability, but I found myself somehow piqued at this article. Let us be reminded that the majority of teachers are highly dedicated, self motivated professionals, partially because there is no choice. Being faced with 30-35 youngsters in a classroom with no strategy for engaging them would be at best unwise. The difﬁculty arises in getting the one or two ineffective educators, and everyone usually knows who they are, out of the building. Let there be no mistake, there is no age criteria for who these couple of educators are. They could just as easily be in their mid-twenties as in their late sixties. Being a young energetic teacher does not make you a good teacher. I have seen plenty of examples where young colleagues may have handled situations differently had they had some more life experience and more of an understanding of, and patience for, how the pressures of every day family situations impact student performance. I have also seen young colleagues with wisdom beyond their years, so again, age in and of itself does not play a

role in one’s effectiveness in the classroom. No matter how old you are when you enter the system, all would agree that the first few years of teaching are quite difficult. Many administrators are willing to pay a bit more in salary for a more experienced teacher than to have to deal with the ramifications of a new teacher finding their way in a classroom. There are so many skills to master and so many situations to encounter for the first time, that many consider the first year of teaching similar to basic training in the military. So a brand new teacher of any age does not equate with a more seasoned experienced teacher three or four years down the line. Age has little to do with one’s efficacy in the classroom, but experience, in general, does play a role. I can’t help but think that there is an underlying economic issue that is disguising itself in all of this rhetoric and reform. Newer teachers, which are usually younger teachers, cost less. They may make nearly half of what a more educated experienced teacher makes ten years later. Removing seasoned professionals from the building helps cut costs when they can be replaced by inexperienced newbies of any age. Are we trying to improve education or are we really trying to cut costs under the guise of improving education? Are we trying to replace more skilled professionals with less skilled professionals to save money? In the article it says Sussman has been serving on the Lawrence School District Board for 18 years; perhaps he is not so

young and energetic himself and should not seek further office. Perhaps he is not aware that the demographic of your current district is 24 percent between the ages of 45 to 64, and 16.1 percent are 65 years of age or older. Or perhaps that is not important because we may not be energetic enough to vote anyway. Additionally, let us not forget that Curiosity, the newest Mars Rover, was developed by engineers and scientists who were schooled under this archaic and horrible system that you speak of. It is my personal belief that education in this country is not as bad as the politicians would like us to think. Our lower test scores in the world do not reflect lower ability or poorer quality education. What they reflect is the difficulty that the influx of English Language Learners and former English Language Learners from all over the world, have in reading and performing on the tests. Many of these students are highly able and gifted, but lack the ability to compete on the same playing field as their counterparts in other countries that have more of monocultures with less language barriers. There is no doubt that there are some difficulties with the teacher evaluation system as it stands now. I believe that through trial and error combined with the ranting and ravings of the extremes from both sides, viable solutions will evolve on their own over time, so I will not propose any here. However, let us not stereotype and label groups in the process.

Two Five Towns Women Lace-up their Sneakers to Run as Guides in the NYC Marathon By Danielle Puma

ine years ago, Yael Mandel of Lawrence ran for her ﬁrst time in the New York City Marathon. She thought running the marathon was a once in a lifetime gig, but she has laced up her sneakers once again. But this time, Mandel will be running not as an athlete, but as a volunteer guide for the Let All The Children Play Foundation. Chairman Michael Alon founded the LATCP Foundation in 1992. The mission of the foundation is to develop fun, innovative and safe playgrounds for children with disabilities. LATCP teamed up with Achilles, an organization that enables people with disabilities to participate in mainstream athletics, to sponsor the NYC Marathon this November. “Michael is our neighbor and our friend. He asked me if I would ever run the marathon again. I was happy I did it nine years ago and never had to think about it again. Then recent-

ly he approached me and said we need runners. I need you to run for my foundation,” Mandel said. Each volunteer guide is required to raise a minimum of $2,500. The funds raised will go toward the LATCP’s mission in 2012 and a portion will also go toward a joint initiative between the Achilles’ Kids Program and LATCP. “When I heard it was a $2,500 commitment to run, I said I’m doing Mitzvah, a good deed. I work as a pediatric occupational therapist so I work with children with mental disabilities every single day. But they assured me it’s easy to raise the money. I always do fundraisers. I just felt like, how many times can I ask my friends to donate?” Mandel said. Mandel knew running the NYC Marathon would be a huge time commitment in terms of training. But she knew she could get her friend Leigh Waxman, who works as a lawyer, onboard to join the LATCP team with her. Waxman and Mandel have been

Nassau Recovers More than $1 Million in Social Services Restitution

ineola, NY - Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano announced today that the Department of Social Services (DSS) has recovered more than $1 million in welfare fraud restitution since January 2012, the result of Medicaid, Temporary Assistance and Day Care fraud uncovered and investigated by the DSS Office of Investigations. The results were referred to the New York State Attorney General’s Office and the Nassau County District Attorney’s Office for prosecution. The $1 million recovered represents the highest level of restitution to date within a calendar year, with still more than 4 months to go. The $1 million is in addition to $5.5 million in “cost avoidance” savings through investigations and review of applications before they are approved and benefits are paid. “Since the first day of my administration, I have approved the commitment of resources to ensuring that only the neediest of our citizens receive the assistance to which they’re entitled. Anyone who tries to

SNEAK

cheat the system will be apprehended and prosecuted to the full extent of the law,” said County Executive Mangano. “Nothing infuriates taxpayers and law-abiding citizens as much as those who try and take food and shelter away from the neediest of our citizens. We remain committed to ensuring that those qualiﬁed will receive help, and that those who try and cheat the system will be introduced to our law enforcement authorities,” said DSS Commissioner John Imhof, “The Nassau County DSS Investigation Unit utilizes the latest cutting-edge technology to catch those who attempt to game the system. Our detection systems have become very sophisticated and we hope these continuing arrests will discourage people from lying on their applications,” said DSS Director of Investigations Scott Skrynecki. To report a case of suspected waste, fraud or abuse, please visit www.nassaucountyny. gov/agencies/Welfare/index. html or call the toll-free hotline at (877) 711-TIPS (8477).

on the length of our run. And we run. We run all day. A typical run for us is seven miles. But now we run longer to train for the mar-

athon. We run from Lawrence to Long Beach or Central Avenue to Sunrise Highway. Or we’ll run to Atlantic Beach and run the boardwalk and back,” Mandel said. “Sometimes it is still dark when we are heading out the door. Each and every Sunday, without fail, when we ﬁrst see the ocean, we stop for a moment to appreciate the awesomeness of this natural beauty and give thanks to God for giving us the ability to run together. Both of us can not think of a better way to start our day,” Waxman said. Mandel and Waxman have currently raised donations of $1,679 out of their $5,000 target goal. Mandel said people can donate to their Team LATCP and leave encouraging words at the Crowdrise website at www. crowdrise.com. The site also provides information on the foundation they will be running under. “If I run with someone who is blind, I’ll be running as their eyes.

famous names and, more importantly, bigger weaponry. Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham, Jet Li, former UFC heavyweight champion Randy Couture, and Terry Crews return from the ﬁrst movie, and are now joined by Bruce Willis, Chris Hemsworth, and Chuck Norris. They are The Expendables, an elite group of mercenaries who all specialize in certain types of warfare. Jean-Claude Van Damme plays the villain in The Expendables

2, who assassinated a close associate of the protagonists and has designs on destroying the world, even if he goes down with it. Sparkle: (PG-13). Sparkle features former American Idol winner Jordin Sparks as a young singer trying to claw to the top amid turmoil in her family and personal life. The deceased Whitney Houston stars as Sparks’ single mother, and Derek Luke plays the manager/love interest of Sparks. Comedian Mike Epps, and CeeLo Green are also featured.

Each person will bring us new inspiration. That’s why we are doing it. I admire their strength, their conviction, and their determination,” Mandel said. “We are supposed to be functioning as the athlete’s eyes, ears, guides and motivators, yet I believe that the roles may actually wind up being reversed, we will be motivated by the athletes that we guide. The strength, commitment and courage shown by these athletes in their endeavor to run the marathon is so inspiring. I expect to see ﬁrst hand how people can overcome any difﬁculty or obstacle in achieving their dreams,” Waxman said. Mandel said although running the marathon again nine years later is a big commitment, it is for a worthwhile cause that will bring new meaning into her life. She looks forward to being a guide to someone who can relay their stories and strength onto her. “I am looking forward to meeting the person that will probably become my hero,” Mandel said.
