In addition, Hochul proposed in her 2022 State of the State a number of proposals to strengthen voting rights protections in New York state, including a state-level voting rights act to protect against voter suppression, improving language access for voters, lowering the voter registration deadline from 25 days to 10 days before Election Day, and requiring polling locations on college campuses.

Senior night spoiled!

On Jan. 21, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed legislation to allow voting by absentee ballot due to the COVID-19 pandemic through 2022. This legislation continues to allow New Yorkers to request an absentee ballot during the pandemic where there is a risk of contracting or spreading disease that may cause illness to the voter or other members of the public. This legislation first became law in July of 2020, and expired Dec. 31, 2021.

“No one should have to choose between exercising their right to vote and protecting their health and safety,” Hochul said. “This legislation will ensure the pandemic does not create inaccessibility for voters during upcoming elections and help protect New Yorkers’ access to the ballot.”

Absentee ballot applications for the Feb. 15 special elections in the 60th and 72nd assembly districts are open through Jan. 31 by mail, until Feb. 14 in-person and can be submitted by mail or in-person until Feb. 15.“The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed the way we work, learn, and live—teaching us to adapt to in ways that we had never imagined before,” state Sen. Alessandra Biaggi said. “We cannot allow the ongoing pandemic to undermine our democracy and interfere with New Yorkers’ right to vote, and must similarly adapt to prioritize public health while protecting our democracy. This is why I introduced S7565, my bill alongside Assemblymember Dinowitz, to ensure that no New Yorker has to choose between their health and fulfilling their civic responsibility, allowing New Yorkers to continue to vote absentee in 2022.”

State Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz said, “Nobody should be forced to choose between their health and their vote. Tens of thousands of New Yorkers have

Picture House to take over Bronxville movie theater The Picture House Regional Film Center will expand operations to Bronxville, extending its film and education programs to the historic movie theater on Kraft Avenue that is owned and was previously operated by Bow Tie Cinemas.

The announcement of its growth into Bronxville comes as the film center continues the year-long centennial celebration of its iconic Pelham theater. The Bronxville expansion will add three screens— and another 1920s-era theater—to the regional film center, allowing for even more wide-ranging and varied programming of new, independent, foreign and documentary films. The addition of the Bronxville theater will also increase audiences and strengthen the impact of The Picture House across the region through amplified access to the best available cinema, conversations, arts education and live performances.

“When we learned that the Bronxville movie theater was in danger of not reopening

post-pandemic, we immediately put a call out to the community for a creative solution to keep the theater alive,” Bronxville Mayor Mary Marvin said. “We then heard that The Picture House Regional Film Center might be a possibility and we were absolutely thrilled. The way The Picture House brings communities together around film and cultural discourse is exactly what we were hoping for in Bronxville.

We have no doubt that having a Picture House location here in Bronxville will not only strengthen our community culturally, it will also help attract more people to eat, shop, and visit our downtown.”

President and Executive Director of The Picture House, Laura deBuys added: “Our nonprofit was formed in 2003 when the Pelham theater was scheduled for demolition. It seems so fitting that, with the expansion to Bronxville, we can rescue another 1920s theater and further our mission at the same time. We’ll be extending Picture House pro-

gramming to the Kraft Avenue location, exhibiting a wide array of films as we entertain, educate, and build community around a shared love of art.“We’re so grateful to Bow Tie,” deBuys added. “We’ve worked together for over six months to figure out how to make this work for Bronxville and for Westchester.”

Ben Moss, CEO of Bow Tie, added, “As a four-generation family-owned company understanding the significance of movie theaters to local communities, we as much as anyone wanted to find a way to keep movies alive and well in Bronxville. Given our belief in the value The Picture House provides to the communities it serves, and overwhelming community support, we are confident in the success of a non-profit cinema model in Bronxville and we’re delighted to help make that happen.”

The Kraft Avenue movie theater, which has been closed since March 2020, is anticipating a February reopening.

HBO films ‘The Gilded Age’ in Westchester

Scenes from “The Gilded Age,” which was filmed at several locations throughout Westchester County in anticipation of its January premiere on HBO.

Westchester is in the spotlight with the Jan. 24 premiere of the new HBO historical drama series, “The Gilded Age.” The new show is set in the rapidly changing world of 1880s New York, during a time of unprecedented industrial growth in America. The story follows the millionaire titans at the upper echelons of New York society engaged in a battle between the nouveau riche and old money. It’s the latest creation from Julian Fellowes, the writer and producer best known for “Downton Abbey,” and a showcase for glamorous costumes and beautiful backdrops—many right here in Westchester.

“It’s no surprise that producers of ‘The Gilded Age’ chose to film in Westchester,” County Executive George Latimer said. “We have fantastic locations—including several historically significant sites—and a huge diversity of spaces that can be used creatively to accommodate everything a production needs.”

The story starts with a young Marian Brook, played by Louisa Jacobson, who moves after the death of her father from rural Pennsylvania to live with her rich aunts, Agnes van Rhijn and Ada Brook, acted by Christine Baranski and Cynthia Nixon, respectively. The plot follows Marion as she becomes enmeshed in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her rich neighbors, a ruthless railroad tycoon and his wife.

Filming for “The Gilded Age” took place over several months in late 2020 and early 2021. Scenes were filmed on dirt roads and in

historic cabins at the Edith Macy Conference Center in Briarcliff Manor, Glenview at Hudson River Museum in Yonkers, Sleepy Hollow Country Club, and inside the mansion and on the grounds at Lyndhurst and Belvedere Estate in Tarrytown. Pace University in Pleasantville was used as a film location and cast and crew basecamp.

Seeking a variety of looks that would recreate 1880s New York, producers scouted Westchester County, where wealthy New Yorkers actually escaped city life during the Gilded Age, according to David Crockett, executive producer.

“We were committed to an authentic feel and wanted the show to be a New York show, an American show. And Westchester came through for us,” Crockett said.

“We created Manhattan locations of the era including a grand mansion and hotel exteriors, the interior of coffee and cake saloon, a downtown printing press, tavern, and the exterior of a ferry terminal. Westchester offered unbelievable assets and we will be back.”

Filming during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic presented production challenges that were eased by filming in Westchester, according to Lauri Pitkus, location scout. “On any given day our production involved 150 to 300 people. So, we were not only looking for historic looks but larger properties where we could park our trucks, construct tents for cast and crew operations, and have park-like grounds where we could operate like a campus,” Pitkus said. “Westchester offered

flexibility in that we could stay for multiple days, find as many creative looks as possible in one place, and observe COVID protocols.”

All the glamor – and practical benefits too Westchester County Tourism & Film Director Natasha Caputo said: “It’s a point of hometown pride to see our locations featured in glamorous productions like The Gilded Age. Not only does film activity provide excitement, it’s a great boon for local businesses that welcome cast and crew to their hotels, restaurants, and tourist destinations.”

Lyndhurst, for example, is one of the places open to the public that people can visit after seeing the show.

“The period of the Gilded Age is a major part of Lyndhurst’s history and we worked closely with the production team to bring this to life,” said Howard Zar, executive director. “Our staff has a long history of helping our film industry collaborators achieve their objectives and succeed.

Working with the Gilded Age and other marquee productions over the years has been a positive experience for us. It allows Lyndhurst to reach new audiences in a completely different way.”

Added Crockett, “After especially long days on set, we appreciated having hotels nearby for our cast and crew to stay. We were also happy to source construction materials and equipment in Westchester. The County was very responsive to our needs.”

“The Gilded Age” premieres Jan. 24 at 9 p.m. on HBO. (Submitted)

RYC responds to youth mental health crisis Rye Youth Council, RYC, a local nonprofit that supports the social, emotional and mental health of young people ages kindergarten through college, announces the launch of its new Youth Mental Health Initiative to address the increasing need for mental health care and resources for youth and their families. Through this initiative, RYC offers direct clinical counseling and support, an evidence-based student-led Depression Awareness Campaign, and training for local adults in Youth Mental Health First Aid. While many people are struggling with their mental health throughout the pandemic, data shows that young people are struggling the most. According to a 2020 Mental Health America report, youth ages 11-17 were more likely than any other age group to score for moderate to severe symptoms of anxiety and depression. Compared to 2019, mental health-related visits to hospital emergency departments increased by 31% for 12-17-yearolds in 2020. Fifty-percent of all lifetime cases of mental illness begin by age 14, and 1 in 5 teens between ages 12 and 18

suffer from at least one diagnosable mental health disorder. Rates of suicidal ideation are highest among youth: Suicide is the second leading cause of death for young people ages 10-24. These are the most serious problems the Rye Youth Council seeks to address.

The new RYC Mental Health Initiative is made possible with funding from The Maddie Fund, a charitable fund created in memory of Madeline Hart Pollard, who passed away in 2019 after a heart-breaking battle with bipolar depression.

“Our family created The Maddie Fund as a means of continuing to do the work that Maddie herself had begun to do and was studying to do—helping others who are suffering from mental illness. While The Maddie Fund supports several regional and national organizations promoting mental health and wellness, it was important to us to find a way to make a difference in our community where Maddie grew up,” said Anne Pollard.

With support from The Maddie Fund, RYC hired a part-time licensed clinical social worker

to create a social work/mental health counseling internship program and provide critical mental health services, support and resources for youth and families in the community.

Led by RYC Social Work Supervisor Linda Tillmon, the new RYC Restore Counseling Service offers 3-6 months of counseling for youth ages 10-22, at little to no cost. Parents can also seek counseling, information and referrals to other local mental health resources by calling the RYC Restore phone line 222-0988 or sending a confidential email to restore@ryeyouthcouncil.org. In addition, Tillmon serves on the Westchester County Suicide Prevention Task Force and is a certified instructor in the evidence-based Suicide Safety for Teachers training.

This month, in partnership with the Rye City School District and RyeACT, RYC brings a new, evidence-based Peer to Peer, P2P, Depression Awareness program to Rye High School. Developed by the University of Michigan’s Eisenberg Family Depression Center, P2P is the recipient of the 2019 American

RYC Social Work Supervisor Linda Tillmon, RYC Executive Director Lisa Dominici, Social Work intern Jessica Torres and RYC Youth Education and Mental Health Counseling Intern Jessica Lodato.

Psychiatric Association’s Gold Award and is built on the premise that many mental health disorders first present themselves during adolescence, and teens are more likely to listen to other teens than well-meaning adults.

The new P2P program at Rye High School supports students in finding creative ways to convey knowledge about depression and depressive illnesses to their peers to reduce stigma, raise awareness, and encourage help-seeking when needed.

“As a result of the P2P program, we anticipate [Rye High School] students will be more confident in their ability to identify someone who is showing common signs of depression and

to help them access appropriate in-school mental health support services,” says Lisa Dominici, executive director of the Rye Youth Council.

Rye Youth Council’s new Mental Health initiative is in its early stages of growth, yet already provides a foundation for young people in Rye that is based on well-documented protective factors. It connects teens to trusted adults, provides school connectedness, offers social emotional learning skills and education, provides access to care without the barrier to cost, and creates an opportunity and environment in which young people contribute to their community and their peers.

EXERCISE for WOMEN OVER 65

It’s no secret that as people age it often gets more difficult to move freely, but consider this statistic: 1 in 4 women over 65 is unable to walk two blocks or climb a flight of stairs, according to a new study from researchers at UC San Diego published in the journal JAMA Network Open.

Light-intensity exercise like walking and gardening can help preserve older women’s ability to live free of mobility disability.

“All movement counts if you want to maintain mobility, not just moderate-to-vigorous exercise,” said first author Nicole Glass, a doctoral candidate in the San Diego State University/UC San Diego joint doctoral program in public health.

Researchers found that women who spent the most time performing light-intensity physical activity had a 46% lower risk of mobility loss compared to women who participated in lower levels of physical activity. Similar results were observed among white, Black and Latina women. Women with and without obesity also reduced their risk of mobility disability, but the benefit was strongest among women with a body mass index of less than 30.

Light-intensity physical activity is often overlooked as a form of exercise, said co-author John Bellettiere, professor of epidemiology at UC San Diego’s Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science. Light-intensity ac-

tivity includes things like walking from the car to the store, getting up and making a cup of tea, or standing and emptying the dishwasher.

“These movements accumulate,”Bellettiere said.

Current activity guidelines for Americans do not consider light-intensity activities, which don’t cause a person to breathe heavily or sweat, he said. The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans recommend that adults who are generally fit with no limiting health conditions should do at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity throughout the week or at least 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity throughout the week, or an equivalent combination of moderateand vigorous-intensity activity.

For many older adults those suggested guidelines are out of reach, said senior author Andrea LaCroix, professor and chief of the division of epidemiology at UC San Diego’s Wertheim School. Perhaps the guidelines need to take into account that the energy cost of movement increases with age, she said.

This study may help shift the paradigm.

“The beauty of this study is that it takes this [the increased effort of exercise as a person ages] into account, and gives older women credit for the movement they do,” Bellettiere said. “Light-intensity activity is beneficial. It increases mobility.”

Study participants wore a research-grade accelerometer, but anyone who can afford a fitness tracking wearable can keep track of their movement.

“Once you are aware of your movement, you have a tendency to increase it,” Bellettiere said.

“Every move you make is beneficial. It helps you move more, which is critical to maintaining your independence. Keep moving,” Glass said.

A question of equity Mike Smith

Let’s just get this out of the way right now; we do not need to change the overtime rules for the NFL playoffs. And quite frankly, I think the whole overtime uproar is a bad look for sports fans.

This past weekend, football fans—and even casual viewers—were treated to one of the best weekends of gridiron action in recent memory. If the NFL’s Wild Card weekend was a bust, the divisional round games were anything but. Four epic contests that came down to the final play—marking the first time in league history that has ever happened.

But whatever goodwill the crazy slate of divisional round games may have engendered among sports fans was promptly threatened by incessant chatter among sports pundits and social media users wondering if the NFL’s overtime rules were “fair.”

To recap; after an absolutely bonkers fourth quarter that saw the Chiefs and Bills trade leads on Sunday night, regulation came to an end with the two teams tied at 36-36. Kansas City won the toss, took the ball and marched right down the field, winning on a touchdown throw from Patrick Mahomes to Travis Kelce.

Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen—who is fast emerging as one of the most electrifying players in the league—had been knocked out the playoffs in overtime without taking a single snap.

And that’s where the hubbub started.

Pundits and fans alike loudly questioned whether the NFL’s overtime rules—which state that if a touchdown is scored on the opening drive, the game is immediately over—cheapened the historic nature of this game played between two otherworldly young quarterbacks. Furthermore, some argued, allowing a playoff game to hinge on something as random as a coin-toss was simply unfair.

As far as the first argument goes, I can’t say I disagree. From

a fan’s standpoint, would I have loved to watch Allen get a chance to answer the Chiefs’ score with a drive of his own? Would I have been selfishly glued to the television as these two signal callers dragged their teams up and down the field for another two hours or however long it would’ve taken to declare a winner? You can bet your bottom dollar, I would.

But as for the concept of “fairness,” I can’t say I’m on board. Was it “fair” that the Bills never got the ball in overtime? Maybe not. But the only reason this game came down to a coin flip is because Buffalo couldn’t take care of business in crunch time.

With their final touchdown of the game—and the ensuing twopoint conversion—the Bills had a three point lead with just 13 seconds left on the clock. That seemed to all but seal the deal, as the announcers began musing about next week’s matchup between the Bills and the Bengals.

But what transpired next was a complete breakdown in lategame execution. Instead of kick-

ing short and forcing a return that would have run valuable seconds off the clock, the Bills kickoff sailed into the end zone for a touchback, leaving Mahomes 13 full seconds to go 44 yards to set up the game-tying field goal.

One smart kick or one defensive stop, and nobody would have been complaining about the arbitrary nature of coin tosses on Monday morning. But the Bills blew it, they put themselves in a position where they could not

control their own destiny, and they paid the ultimate price.

If that’s not fair, then I don’t know what is.

HARRISON HS

Game Notes: • 11 different players scored for Rye. • Alex Homem had 17 points for Harrison.

• The Garnets will take on undefeated North Rockland on 1/26, after press time.

By MIKE SMITH Sports Editor With a cast of new faces taking the court for Rye this year, Garnets’ basketball coach John Aguilar knew that there might be an adjustment period this winter as his team acclimated itself to competition at the varsity level.

But with the playoffs approaching, it looks as though the Garnets might be hitting their stride at the right time. On Friday, Jan. 21, Rye picked up an impressive league win over rival Harrison, topping the Huskies 58-42 on the road to snap a two-game losing streak and climb above the .500 mark.

The Garnets wasted little time seizing control on Friday night, jumping out to a 27-17 halftime lead over their hosts, something that Aguilar said was a focal point heading into the game. According to the head coach, slow starts had hurt Rye in recent contests, notably in the team’s Jan. 18 loss to a solid Pelham team.

“I thought the energy was different today, I think the group we had out there brought the energy and had a sense of urgency on both ends,” said Aguilar. “We’ve shown that at some points this year, but not always from the tip.”

In addition to being pleased with Rye’s tempo on Friday, Aguilar also cited the team’s unselfish play as one of the reasons behind a strong showing.

Charlie Howard led Rye with 11 points on a night that saw 11 different players record points.

Rye’s depth has been something

of a blessing and a curse for the Garnets in the early-goings of the season, but Aguilar believes that he’s beginning to get a clearer picture of which lineups give the team a greater chance of success.

“We said from the beginning of the season, with 14 guys, seven of whom are brand new to the team, it was going to take us a little while to figure things out,” said Aguilar. “We think, as a coaching staff, that we’ve found a mix that’s going to work and sustain on the court. We’d like a little more consistency in the rotation and that’s what we’re going to try to work on moving forward.”

Although the Garnets were unable to capitalize on the momentum of Friday night’s win, falling to Hendrick Hudson the following day, Aguilar is hoping to see more growth from the team over the next couple of weeks. The Garnets will be tested in that time

period, with non-league matchups against tough teams like North Rockland and a slew of divisional meetings with teams including Byram Hills, Pelham and Eastchester on the docket.

Earlier this season, the Garnets scored a win over the Bobcats while falling to both the Pelicans and Eagles.

“We know with Byram that we might as well just start the game with four minutes left because it seems that regardless of who has the lead the first three quarters, our kids and their kids always have this battle, this intensity,” said Aguilar. “But we’re going to have to make adjustments when it comes to Pelham, and with Eastchester, they’ve got a little more size and length, so we’re going to have to find a way to offset that.”
