GridRewards program targets Westchester residents, businesses GridReward, a groundbreaking program and accompanying free, mobile app that pays users up to 20% of their annual energy bill for reducing usage at peak demand hours will expand its imprint throughout Westchester County, following a successful summer pilot program initiated by Sustainable Westchester. Any Con Edison customer can participate in this first-of-itskind, cash-payout energy efficiency program by downloading the GridRewards app via the App Store or Google Play. Working in partnership with Con Edison by leveraging smart meter technology, the GridRewards app prompts users to take simple electricity reducing actions during high de-
mand time periods, earning cash for participants and diminishing the need of pollution-inducing “peaker” powerplants. After a successful summer pilot in 2020, where participants earned hundreds of dollars for energy saving actions, Sustainable Westchester is rolling out GridRewards as a long-term initiative to keep the most polluting “peaker” powerplants off the grid. The award-winning technology was developed by AI technology leader Logical Buildings. “The partnership adds another first to market solution for Westchester residents,” says Michel Delafontaine, director of Business Development. “It brings a solution that helps build toward a
clean energy future for our municipal members and their residents. GridRewards has the unique ability to offer residents the opportunity to reduce energy usage, save money, lower their carbon footprint and earn real cash. How it Works When energy is peaking on the grid, Con Edison pays GridRewards participants to help curb usage. Simple actions, such as raising cooling setpoints by 4 degrees for a handful of designated periods in the summer, can earn a check in the mail. Additional activities, like dimming lights, avoiding electric hot water heating, and unplugging energy-intensive appliances, will add to these cash rewards and,
concurrently, lower monthly utility bills. Without having to invest in hardware or equipment of any sort, Con Edison customers who have smart meters can watch their energy usage drop in real time on the app. Following the successful pilot program this past summer, the program roll-out was launched in conjunction with the free app in the fall. Consumers in the pilot program received an average of $200 in cash or 20% of their annual electric bill. To date, more than three million smart meters have been installed in the New York Tri-State area by Con Edison, all of which are accessible through the app. (Submitted)
The Westchester County Board of Legislators has begun its formal review of the county’s Police Reform and Reimagining Task Force report, with plans to adopt a police reinvention document by March 22. The review is being led by the board’s Committee on Public Safety, which met Monday, Feb. 15 to hear from Task Force cochairs Mayo Bartlett and Leroy Frazer. Public Safety Committee Chairman Colin Smith said Monday’s meeting is just the beginning. The review will include weekly Public Safety Committee meetings as well as a chance for the public to comment on the report by mail and email as well as during a Webex teleconference public input session on Wednesday, March 10 at 7 p.m.Under an Executive Order from Gov. Andrew Cuomo, all municipalities statewide must adopt a police reform and reinvention plan to be certified by the state by April 1. “We are extremely cognizant of the Governor’s timeline for adoption,” Smith said. “We are also cognizant of the opportunity we have to build on the outstanding work of our Public Safety Department to make policing in Westchester County better, more equitable and more modern.“This is only the first step in an ongoing process—a blueprint for structural and systemic change in the recruitment, training and accountability measures used by our law enforcement agencies,” he added. “Establishing new processes and enacting legislation will take time. But the frank and cooperative efforts of commu-
nity members, law enforcement, lawmakers and other public officials that produced this report will be a model for us going forward.” Board Chairman Ben Boykin said, “The historic moment that we find ourselves in, in the wake of the murder of George Floyd and the public outcry over his death and the deaths of so many others, has presented us with a rare opportunity. It’s a moment we must seize to make us all better. I’m gratified that the work of this Task Force has been so broad and so cooperative, and I am sure Legislator Smith and the Public Safety Committee’s review will be similarly broad and cooperative. In the end I know we will adopt a plan that will make Westchester a better place and stand as an example that positive change is possible through cooperation and good will.” Among the recommendations in the Task Force report are: implicit bias and intercultural competency training for law enforcement personnel; formal review of the county Department of Public Safety’s use of social media for branding and community outreach; the possible creation of community liaisons; increased multi-lingual communications; training in implicit bias and restorative justice for school resource officers; joint de-escalation training with the Department of Correction; increased Police Academy training in procedural justice, cultural diversity and bias-related crimes; creation of a County Office of Police Accountability; and more.

County seeks nominations for first WOW Award Celebrating the power, strength and independence of Westchester County women, members of County Executive George Latimer’s team formed a committee to pay tribute to local women and honor them for their contributions during the pandemic. This year’s #WOWConversations makes a triumphant return, after being cancelled last year due to COVID-19. The discussion will now be held virtually, and the committee putting together the empowerment event is also seeking nominations for its first WOW Awards. “Women have had to overcome obstacles in order to really seize the opportunity that’s not always available to them,” Latimer said. “WOW conversations allows for women to exchange ideas and stories, and talk about shared experiences.” Women of Westchester Committee member Robi Schlaff, director of the Westchester County Office for Women said, “When I think of the unbelievable contributions women in Westchester have made to the County in so many different
fields from academics to education and philanthropy, I think this year, what we really wanted to do is celebrate that.” The committee is seeking nominations in the following categories: -Healing Hands: Highlighting health and wellness -The Next Generation: Spotlighting women working with children in education or childcare -Women Supporting Women: Showcasing a local woman who continues to lift others -Community Response: Identifying women helping the community with basic needs like housing or food. -Keeping the Faith: For women who have provided spiritual guidance -Business: Featuring an outstanding businesswoman or entrepreneur “We want women to feel comfortable to speak up and speak out,” said Shari Rosen Ascher, county director of Policy and Programs for Small Business and Chambers of Commerce. “Our committee was dedicated to coming
up with creative ways to bring women together in a way to make them feel comfortable and included so we can continue to rise.” Crystal Collins, the county Director of Faith Based Initiatives and Urban Affairs says winners will be recognized during the #WOWConversations virtual event which will bring together women of all backgrounds to discuss topics like leadership and business. The nomination process is open now until Feb. 28. Those nominating an ordinary woman doing extraordinary things are asked to submit a photo and short essay. The committee will later decide who the winners are and reveal them at the online event March 25. “Celebrating women who have done so much in the County is such a positive thing in a year where we have evolved so much,” said Martha Lopez, the county director of Minority Women’s Business Program and Immigrant Affairs. “I think it’s important that we celebrate these women who have stepped up to the plate.” (Submitted)

3D pop artist creates artwork for Feeding Westchester Feeding Westchester and internationally renowned 3D pop artist Charles Fazzino are collaborating this February for a Valentine’s Day focused virtual volunteer project. Feeding Westchester’s new Help From Home volunteer project allows volunteers to create and donate individual bags of assorted food items to be distributed to hungry neighbors through their partners and programs across Westchester. Volunteers who participate in Feeding Westchester›s Help From Home project can download and color a copy of Fazzino’s “Love in Westchester-Themed Coloring Book” image created especially for this project to be included in the bag for a hungry neighbor. “I created this image to help spread a little Valentine’s Day cheer along with the food that so many people need during this incredible time in Westchester,” Fazzino said. “I hope folks use bright colors and have fun shading it in to bring smiles to peoples’ faces.” Interested parties can find more information on the Help From Home project at Feedin-
gWestchester.org/HelpFromHome. In addition to contributing to Feeding Westchester’s Help From Home project, Fazzino released a signature 3D limited edition print in 2020 called “This Soon Shall Pass” in response to the worldwide coronavirus pandemic. That 3D print is an expression of hope and compassion for all of those who have struggled and continue to struggle since the pandemic began. One-hundred percent of the net proceeds from the sale of this art edition are being used to set up a COVID-19 relief fund from which Fazzino has made distributions to a variety of charitable organizations throughout the county, including three Feeding Westchester partners. “Feeding Westchester has been at the forefront of hunger relief in Westchester for more than 30 years,” said Karen Erren, president and CEO of Feeding Westchester. “Through our powerful collaborations with community partners, we have been able to meet the longstanding needs of our community. Having distributed 22 million pounds of food, or 18.4 million meals, in the past
year, Feeding Westchester knows that we can’t do this alone. It takes us all. Which is why I’m so appreciative of the kindness and generosity of Westchester residents. Thank you, Charles, for caring so deeply for your community. Together we are Feeding Westchester.” International art galleries around the world are also selling Fazzino’s artwork with the request to donate proceeds from these sales to support COVID-relief efforts in their local cities. “I have seen and heard about so much suffering during the pandemic,” Fazzino said. “Originally, this was just a sketch I made about hope for the future and posted on social media. It resonated with so many people that we decided to make it into an art edition and sell it to raise money. Food insecurity is a chronic issue and now, more than ever, people all over the world are struggling to put food on their tables. I’m just glad that my small attempt at putting smiles on the faces of those who are struggling is also generating money that can make a real difference to so many.” (Submitted)

Westchester-filmed productions
score nominations
Awards season officially kicked off this week with the announcement of nominees for both Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild, SAG, awards. Once again, Westchester County was well-represented, seeing seven award nominations in top categories going to productions that filmed right here in Westchester. “These nominations highlight our diverse locations and film-friendly climate,” County Executive George Latimer. “The recognition signals the quality of production that’s taking place in Westchester, and represents just a small slice of the success we have had with the film and television industry. Going forward, we’re eager to work with location scouts and managers, producers, directors and designers to help plan successful and safe productions.” Among the celebrated shows is the HBO Max comedy, “The Flight Attendant,” which features actress Kaley Cuoco as the flight attendant whose life unravels after she wakes up in a hotel room next to a dead man, with no memory of what happened. Cuoco and the ensemble cast received Golden Globe and SAG nominations for acting. The show was also nominated in the Golden Globe category, “Best
Series, Musical or Comedy.” Several scenes were filmed in Westchester, including the Motel 6 in Elmsford, The Galleria in White Plains, and at a private residence on Buckout Road in West Harrison. This year’s nominees also include the Amazon drama, “Hunters,” starring the legendary Al Pacino, which follows a band of Nazi hunters in 1977 New York City. Pacino earned a Golden Globe nomination for “Best Actor in a TV drama” for his starring role in the show. The production filmed at Untermeyer Gardens in Yonkers and in the village of Ossining, which stood in for Paraguay for the opening scene in the fifth episode. Ramy Youssef, who stars in the self-titled Hulu comedy, “Ramy,” earned best acting nods from both the Hollywood Foreign Press (Golden Globes) and the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA). Now in its second season, the show most recently filmed at the Westchester County Correctional Facility. “Westchester County is attractive to the industry because of our diversity of locations, which offer ample space to spread out and socially distance on set,” said Natasha Caputo, Westchester County director of Tourism
& Film. “We can stand in for any backdrop required, from smalltown scenes and rural landscapes to urban and industrial settings, historic mansions, hospitable hotels, and film-friendly airport and correctional facility.” Notably, several nominees with ties to Westchester received both Golden Globe and SAG nominations, among them Scarsdale native Aaron Sorkin, who received nods for his motion picture, “Trial of the Chicago 7,” and Jason Bateman, born in Rye, who was nominated for “Best Actor in a television series, drama,” for his work in “Ozark.” “It’s not only a joy to see Westchester’s landscapes featured in award-winning productions, it’s also good to know that the activity brings economic benefit,” Latimer said. “The nominations represent just a small slice of the success we have had with the film and television industry, which generated $45 million in economic impact in 2019. Film is an important economic driver in Westchester and it will be important to our recovery in 2021.” The 78th annual Golden Globe Awards will air live on Feb. 28 starting at 8 p.m. on NBC; this year’s SAG Awards will air live Sunday, April 4 at 9 p.m. simulcast on TNT and TBS.

Rye Neck students, faculty sign construction beams Rye Neck High School students, teachers and administrators signed several of the final steel beams of the new two-story Collaborative Science Center on Jan. 25 and 28 to commemorate its construction. Work on the science center, which was approved as a capital project by Rye Neck voters in February 2018, began last March and has proceeded throughout the pandemic. The concrete foundation and underground mechanical work are complete, and the steel framework is beginning to take shape, while the construction team is working diligently to meet the projected timeline for moving students into the building in early 2022. “The steel signing signifies Rye Neck’s commitment to excellence in education for future generations,” Superintendent of Schools Dr. Barbara Ferraro said. “The new science center is a state-of-the-art facility, enabling Rye Neck students to gain access to the most updated technologies and learning opportunities.” The 24,300-square-foot Collaborative Science Center will feature eight new classrooms, designed and equipped for science, technology, engineering and related subjects for students in grades 9-12. Its open, flexible workspaces will encourage collaborative teaching and learning. (Submitted)

Peace & quiet Health News
Why less noise might help our ears but not our hearts or brains Jack hammers. Buzz saws. Screaming toddlers. Barking dogs. Horns blaring from incessant traffic jams. Any of these can set nerves on edge, especially if you are subjected to the noise for hours, days or weeks on end. It’s more than aggravating. Studies show noise-generated stress is bad for the heart and brain. But pandemic-induced shutdowns and social distancing have led to substantially less noise generated by human activity over the past year, and researchers are looking at whether that could translate into human health benefits. “We know that stress in a variety of forms is unhealthy. Noise is a type of stress we all encounter in our daily lives,” said Dr. Michael Osborne, a cardiologist at Boston’s Massachusetts General Hospital who has studied how noise enters the brain and harms the body. Noise and noise-related stress have been linked to health effects such as hearing loss, sleep disturbance, impaired cognition, high blood pressure, heart disease and metabolic diseases such as diabetes. A 2011 report from the World Health Organization estimated noise pollution in Western Europe annually robs people of more than 1 million healthy life years. But over the past year, pandemic-related shutdowns, fewer people working outside the home and social distancing have greatly reduced human activity, lowering noise patterns across the globe. One study in the journal Science found shutdowns between March and May of 2020 cut
the noise generated by human activity in half, resulting in the “longest and most coherent global seismic noise reduction in recorded history.” An ongoing study in all 50 states uses smartwatch monitors to track noise exposure. Initial data gathered during shutdowns last spring in California, Texas, New York and Florida showed a halving of environmental noise pollution in these states. Researchers found study participants experienced an average drop of 3 decibel levels. That’s enough to potentially reduce adverse health impacts, such as hearing loss, said the study’s lead investigator Richard Neitzel, an associate professor of environmental health sciences at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. For every 3-decibel rise in noise exposure, the risk for hearing loss increases substantially, Neitzel said. “If we can keep noise at a conversation level, below a daily average of 70 decibels, we can completely eliminate noise-induced hearing loss.” To determine how the drop in environmental noise may be affecting people, Neitzel and his team are asking participants to take regular hearing tests on their smartphones for an analysis they expect to do later this year. They’re also collecting data on heart rates and self-reported stress levels. The benefits of better hearing could extend well beyond the ears. A Lancet Commission report on dementia prevention notes hearing loss in midlife is one of the largest modifi-
Noise and noiserelated stress have been linked to health effects such as hearing loss, sleep disturbance, impaired cognition, high blood pressure, heart disease and metabolic diseases such as diabetes.
able risk factors. Last summer, a study published in Alzheimer’s & Dementia found just 10 decibels of additional neighborhood noise is associated with a 36% higher risk for mild cognitive impairment and a 29% higher risk for Alzheimer’s disease.
Osborne’s research gives some clues for how environmental noise may be entering the brain and hurting the body: He found high levels activate the amygdala, a part of the brain involved in processing stress. High levels of activity in the amygdala were
associated with an increase in inflammation. While a quieter environment may result in some benefits, Osborne said other stressors associated with the pandemic could wipe out any health gains. “It’s the sum of the stress
we are facing that impacts us,” Osborne said. That doesn’t mean the damage can’t be reversed, especially if people find ways to cope with added stresses, he said Osborne, who is studying whether mindfulness training might reduce disease.

New charter school announces 2022 opening Announcing its proposed opening for fall 2022 is the Intellectus Preparatory Charter School, a tuition-free public charter school whose purpose is to serve scholars in grades six through 12 residing in the downstate New York regions of Mount Vernon, Yonkers and lower Westchester. With the mission of providing children with an equitable educational experience, Intellectus Prep will prepare its scholars to compete academically, contribute socially, and attain a pathway to college and career. “The Latin phrase and motto on which Intellectus Prep’s teachings will follow is, ‘Non scholæ sed vitæ,’ which translates to, ‘We learn not for school, but for life,’” said Kenyah Koonce-Miller, lead founder of the Intellectus Prep, and Mount Vernon resident. “Our local area is in desperate need of
visionary new public schools— such as Intellectus Prep—which connect the needs of the community to a high-quality educational offering. With our proposed charter school project, we hope to become a trusted partner for children and families in the community as soon as next year.” There are not enough high-quality education offerings for the growing populations of Mount Vernon and Yonkers specifically. Intellectus Prep will build a strong education continuum for children through exploratory learning, restorative practice and personal development. Its curriculum will encompass the development of an entrepreneurial mindset, financial literacy to foster a cycle of generational wealth, and counseling for all scholars to ensure children have healthy minds. The only school
of its kind to equally encourage students’ goals for enrollment in college, trade school or entrepreneurship following graduation, Intellectus Prep will empower scholars to choose a pathway that aligns with each child’s unique life passions. While Intellectus Preparatory Charter School is committed to welcome all scholars from across the New York region, admission preference will be granted to students who are based in Mount Vernon or Yonkers, those with learning or cognitive disabilities, and all English-language learners. The enrollment of children in grades six and seven will be prioritized for Intellectus Prep’s initial school year, 2022-2023.

Getting back to basics LIVE MIKE Mike Smith
We are just about one week into the restart of “high-risk” high school sports and I have to say; as different as things may look this year, in many ways, it’s just business as usual for our athletes. Now don’t get me wrong; this doesn’t look like your average winter season, at least not on the surface. The stands are empty, the gyms are noticeably quieter and face masks are now a ubiquitous piece of apparel. But once you get past all that, it might as well just be any other year. From a personal standpoint, I can see that in the way I’ve been covering sporting contests. Early last week, many of my postgame questions to players and coaches were centered on the restart; how coronavirus protocols impacted the teams in terms of training and preparation. I reported the final scores of the games, but ultimate-
ly the focus of my pieces were less concerned with statistics and standings and more about how our local athletes felt about getting the chance to compete after months of uncertainty. But by the end of the weekend, I felt like I had exhausted those storylines already. Most teams— weather permitting—had a few games under their belt by that point so it was time to move on, to focus on the nuts and bolts of the games. Questions about the restart were put on the backburner, and instead I found myself doing more reporting on the game itself; asking about defensive philosophies, offensive sets and bad-luck bounces. It was refreshing for me, truth be told. So much of the work I’ve done over the last few months has been about public policy as it pertained to the pandemic and high school sports. Instead of patrolling the sidelines of games, I was waiting for news to come down from Albany or monitoring the social media advocacy campaigns that had been embraced
by our local programs. The work was important, sure, but not nearly as fun as catching an overtime game between Harrison and Rye. And if I feel relieved to get back to business as usual, I can only imagine how our athletes feel. Their lives have been upended over the last 12 months and getting the chance to compete can allow them to push all of the last year’s hardships to the backburner, at least for a few hours. There are going to be setbacks, of course. We saw coronavirus spikes impact teams’ fall campaigns and I’m sure we’ll see it happen again this winter. But right now, there’s reason for hope and optimism because we can finally take a break from talking about the pandemic and just focus on the games at hand. And I think I speak for most local sports fans when I say that’s all we ever really wanted.

THE ROUNDUP ICE HOCKEY
Pelham 4 Rye 3 (OT) At Ice Hutch
2/17/21
In the first game of the winter season, Rye was nearly able to orchestrate a dramatic win over host Pelham, but fell to the Pelicans in overtime. Trailing 3-2 with just 18 seconds left to play, the Garnets’ Liam Hurley was able to come up with a timely goal that sent the game into overtime. But with 35 seconds left in the overtime period, Pelham’s Ben Rosenberg capitalized during a scramble in front of the Rye net, scoring the game-winner to give Pelham its first win of the year. Trace Sculti and Brendan O’Bryne both scored for Rye, but Rosenberg led all scorers with two.
Mamaroneck 2 Rye 0 At Hommocks Ice Rink
2/21/21
On Sunday night, the Garnets fell to a powerful Mamaroneck team, as Max Nodiff and Joe
Trucchio’s goals lifted the Tigers over visiting Rye. With the loss, Rye falls to 0-2 on the year, but both losses come against squads that came into the season as favorites to vie for a sectional crown. They will be back in action on Feb. 27 when they take on New Rochelle. The Huguenots fell to the Tigers 4-1 on opening night. Mamaroneck (3-0) will play on three consecutive days this weekend, as they prepare for two games against Irvington and another against Rye Town/Harrison
BOYS BASKETBALL
Harrison 53 Rye 50 At Harrison HS
2/21/21
Harrison was able to author an overtime win against their rivals on Sunday afternoon, as the Huskies topped Rye in a barnburner. CJ Tummings led the way for Harrison, netting a game-high 29 points and facilitating a tremendous Harrison comeback that saw them overcome a 9-point deficit in the final quarter of play to send the game into overtime.
Liam Lavelle fires a shot against Pelham on Feb. 17. Lavelle and the Garnets fell in overtime to the Pelicans.
The Garnets will have another shot at Harrison on Feb. 23, after press time, and will play host to Eastchester on Feb. 25.
GIRLS BASKETBALL
Rye 49 New Rochelle 33 At Rye HS
2/17/21
Stout defense propelled the Garnets to a win over Class AA New Rochelle on Wednesday, as Rye allowed just six points in the second quarter to come away with a 16-point victory over the Huguenots. Amanda Latkany led the way for Rye offensively, netting a game-high 22 points in the winning effort. Mara Ball added 13 points while New Rochelle was paced by Makira Bunsie who had eight points. The Garnets were supposed to take on rival Harrison on Friday in a rematch of last year’s Class A sectional semifinal game, but the game was postponed due to inclement weather. The two teams will meet on Feb. 23, after press time. -Reporting by Mike Smith
