Baymen Win
the Latest Skirmish
In early August Justice Stephen
Bucaria ruled in favor of five members of
the North Oyster Bay Baymen’s
Association (NOBBA), and an individual
bayman not part of NOBBA. Frank M.
Flower (FMF), had brought a lawsuit
against the NOBBA members Craig
Oddo, William Fetzer, Fredrick Menges,
William Painter, and James Shultz for
breaching a 1991 settlement between
NOBBA and FMF. FMF sued Paul
Lombardi, an independent bayman, for
Operation Democracy Welcomes
Special Guests from Normandy
trespass and theft.
Unsatisfied with the verdict, FMF is
appealing Bucaria’s decision and has six
months to prepare the case. Gary
Ettelman, an attorney for FMF, when
reached for comment said, “I am
supremely confident when the dust settles, we will win on appeal.”
This latest court battle is one of many
between FMF and the baymen over the
rights to Town of Oyster Bay leased
shellfishing beds in Oyster Bay harbor.
Pryibil Beach Cleanup
On Saturday, September 20, (rain
date: Saturday, September 27) Pryibil
Beach is the venue in Glen Cove for a
clean-up. Volunteers are needed to participate for this 27th annual International
Coastal Beach Cleanup. The meet-up
time is 9AM on the beach. Volunteers
will receive a certificate of appreciation
from the American Littoral Society. This
international event is one of the world’s
largest volunteer data gathering efforts on
behalf of the marine environment.
After the beaches are cleaned, the
inventory litter is gathered on data cards
provided by the American Littoral
Society. Then, the information is forwarded to The Ocean Conservancy in
Washington D.C. who reviews the tallied
items, and reports on the status of our
waterways, worldwide. Refreshments
will be generously provided by the Glen
Cove Diner. For more information please
contact Damion Stavredes at 516-7796382.
TOB Free Rabies Vaccinations
The Town of Oyster Bay will hold a
FREE rabies vaccination clinic for dogs,
cats and ferrets on Saturday, September
20, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., according to Town Councilman Chris
Coschignano. The clinic, which is being
held in conjunction with the Nassau
County Department of Health, will be
conducted at the Town Animal Shelter,
150 Miller Place, Syosset.
“Together with the Long Island
Veterinary Medical Association, the Town
is sponsoring this free rabies vaccination
clinic for dogs, cats and ferrets so residents will have the chance to get these
important inoculations for their pets free
of charge,” Councilman Coschignano
said.
The Councilman went on to say that
by law, all dogs in Nassau County must be
licensed and inoculated against rabies.
While the license law does not extend to
cats or ferrets, State law does require that
they be vaccinated against rabies.
Personnel will be on hand to help deal
with the large number of animals expected and to assist residents interested in
adopting a dog or cat. No reservations are
necessary for the clinic. For further information, contact the Town’s Animal
Shelter at (516) 677-5784.
Medical Marijuana
Governor Andrew Cuomo signed the
medical marijuana bill in July. There are
restrictions including; only vapor and oilbased forms are allowed. Doctors would
prescribe marijuana for individuals with
epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, cancer, aids
and 6 other diseases. It will take up to
eighteen months to have the law and program to come into effect. A strain of medical marijuana called “Charlotte’s Web” is
very useful in controlling uncontrollable
epileptic seizures in children. It is considered a Godsend for the children afflicted.
Some families are seeking waivers from
the state, so that their children can be treated now for their epileptic seizures. The
outcome remains to be seen.
Now, investment companies are looking to lobbyists to help capitalize on the
legalization of marijuana. A marijuana
industry in New York could be worth up to
$250 billion in annual tax revenue.
Surprisingly, Alphonse D’Amato is getting
into the game of promoting medical marijuana through his lobbying firm Park
Strategies LLC. D’Amato noted that times
have changed, and that medical marijuana
gives relief, and is an alternative medicine.
Long Island entrepreneurs foresee a boon
to the island, if marijuana grow warehouses, and outdoor farms are allowed to grow
marijuana legally. But, New York legislation may only approve a small amount of
growers, and the capital needed to start,
and maintain the facilities is very costly.
So, in the near future, a cashing in on the
gold rush of medical marijuana appears to
be limited.
One company in Plainview, headed by
CEO Jason Draizin, age 35, called
MarijuanaDoctors.com has a database of
500 clinics, 300 doctors, and 93,000 people who have used the service, in which
patients are connected to physicians that
legally prescribe medical marijuana
throughout 20 U.S. states. The company
seemed to be working legally and properly. But, Draizin, and three others from his
company were arrested August 22, in
Great Neck. Their van was pulled over for
an illegal lane change. Inside the van
police found cocaine, marijuana, and
Ecstasy. All four occupants of the van were
charged with felony drug possession.
The group visited the WWII Roll Call monument. The group was overwhelmed with the amount
of soldiers listed on the monument and the beautiful details of the memorial.
Mayor Quetier and Kaye Weninger President of OD sit on a bench honoring the sister
city relationship between the two villages.
Operation Democracy (OD) had the
honor of welcoming 16 guests from Sainte
Mere Eglise, France to Locust Valley. As
part of celebrating the 70th anniversary of
the D-Day invasion on June 6, this group
from the small village in Normandy decided to come and tour the United States and
Locust Valley, their historic sister city was
the first stop.
Operation Democracy arranged for host
families in Locust Valley to accommodate
these guests. OD wanted to welcome the
Normandy guests as graciously as they
have welcomed Veterans and visitors from
Locust Valley to their small village.
The group from Normandy who put
together this tour is an organization called
the AVA (Amis des Vétérans Américains”,
or “Friends of American Veterans”). This
group has worked directly with Operation
Democracy over the past 8 years in helping
to rekindle the relationship between the
two villages.
Special guests from Sainte Mere Eglise
included: Mayor & Mrs. Jean Quetier ,
Maurice Renaud, son of the wartime
Mayor A. Renaud(1944) and now president of the AVA, Dorothea de la Houssaye,
who is working with the WWII Museum
to create an international Normandy institute in studies in Leadership, War, Peace,
Freedom and Democracy. The other
guests are members of the AVA and were
ambassadors for the Normandy town of
SME.
A special cocktail party was held at the
home of Douglas & Cathy Soref. Over 60
residents from the area attended the special
evening. Mayor Quetier presented special
medals to WWII Werner Kleeman who
landed on Utah Beach and the two mayors
in attendance, Larry Schmidlapp of Center
Island and Ken Goodman of Matinecock.
Mayor Quetier also spoke of the special
bond between Operation Democracy and
SME and how important it is to “Never
Forget”. The Mayor presented Kaye
Weninger, President of Operation
Democracy and Cathy Soref with a special
book, DVD of a new song from a
Frenchwoman called “Thank you” and a
beautiful medal.
Special guest, Patrick Du Tertre, cofounder of the “French Will Never Forget”
expressed his organizations efforts for their
appreciation to America. Mr. Du Tertre,
was the French Representative who attended Operation Democracy’s Bronze Plaque
dedication in 2006. His organization past
actions have included placing red roses on
all the graves of American Soldiers, gathering hundreds of people to spell out “France
will never forget” on Omaha Beach and
this past D-Day, organized 2 helicopters to
fly over the Statue of Liberty and showered
her with a million rose petals. He spoke of
Friendship, and ended the night with, May
God Bless America, and the FrenchAmerican friendship forever.
Day two for the group was a guided
tour of the military base of West Point.
Special presentations were made to the
Mayor, Operation Democracy and the
AVA. Then Monday night the Howard Van
Wagner American Legion Post 962 invited
the group for dinner. The LV Veterans hosted a special evening welcoming the guests
to our community and thanking the group
for everything they do in Normandy to
continue to honor our Soldiers and
Veterans. The AVA group were honored to
meet three of our local WWII Veterans
from LV- Arnold Ceglio, Ed Heintz and
Wallie. Commander Bob Harrington welcomed everyone and friendships were created.
For greater understanding of the historic post WWII relationship of Operation
Democracy, visits around Locust Valley
were made with Kaye Weninger, President
of Operation Democracy and Cathy Soref .
First stop was the sign at the entrance to the
village—documenting the historic sister
cities relationship with Sainte Mere Eglise.
Second, the Operation Democracy
Memorial Rock, where they saw the
bronze plaque honoring the community of
Locust Valley and Sainte Mere Eglise, and
read the poem that was written by one of
their own, Simone Renaud in 1948 (called
Locust Valley). And the last visit was to
the WWII Monument by the fire station.
Time may have passed since the
Operation Democracy was created in 1947
but today friendships were rekindled and
discussions were made of this 3-day visit.
Both groups realize how important it is we
continue our friendship, but also to engage
the students; the future generation in programs like Painting for Peace as a way to
remember, and honor those who sacrificed
their lives for our freedom.

PSE&G Phone Scam
Glen Cove is currently experiencing a
rash of PSE&G phone scams. The scammer calls a PSE&G customer and states
that he/she represents PSE&G and
demands payment using a Green Dot
Money Pak, which is a type of pre-paid
card available at pharmacies and convenience stores. PSE&G does not accept these
pre-paid Green Dot cards. Furthermore,
PSE&G customers who are scheduled for
disconnection due to non-payment receive
written notice on their bill at least 10 days
in advance. If you believe you are being
scammed simply hang up the phone and
contact PSE&G directly at 1-800-4367734. If you believe you are a victim of
this phone scam contact your local police.
Bayville Compromise?
At an August 21 meeting at Bayville
Village Hall, the Town Board, residents, and
the Crescent Beach Club owner and manager appear to be heading toward a compromise regarding loud music at the club. Since
July 2013, the police have been called a
dozen times about the noise disturbance at
the popular destination venue.
Homeowners and residents in Bayville
who are affected by the noise of Crescent
Beach Club or Walls Wharf have formed an
association in order to speak in one voice to
government officials and the two establishments. As of Saturday, August 30, more than
20 members of the community have joined
the Bayville Beach Residents Association.
This not-for-profit was established specifically to address the operation of these two
establishments. There are two co-presidents;
with Robert Linley presiding over members
primarily affected by the Crescent Club, and
Kevin Murtha acting as co-president over
those affected by Walls Wharf.
Mr. Murtha confirms that the owner of
the Crescent Beach Club has been open to
the plight of the residents, and hopes that by
a mid-October date, a compromise over the
excessive noise level will be in effect.
However, three homeowners have filed a
Notice of Claim against the Village of
Bayville related to the activities of Walls
Wharf. Even with the Notice of Claim, the
homeowners are hopeful that a resolution
can still be reached with Walls Wharf.

VICTORIA CROSBY
On a partly cloudy afternoon a large
crowd of family, friends and neighbors,
including many young children, gathered at the corner of Collins Road and
Southridge Drive in Glen Cove to pay
tribute to Nicholas Pedone on what
would have been his 9th birthday
Nicholas fought a brave, seven
month long battle with a rare form of
cancer, neuroblastoma, which took his
life in May, 2013, when he was only 7
years old.
Janice and Michael Zangari, who
live next door to the Pedones, wanted to
help the heartbroken parents and family
by petitioning the City of Glen Cove
and Nassau county to honor the memory of Nicholas with a new street sign
dedicated to him, and as he has been
known as Sweet Nicholas, the street is
now Sweet Nicholas’ Path.
The Zangari’s are both in wheelchairs, but that doesn’t slow them down,
they are filled with lots of energy and
enthusiasm for their cause. Janice told
me that Michael charged up and down
the street in his wheelchair collecting
signatures for a petition, and she spent
hours on the phone with officials to help
make it happen. When asked how long
ago they had started this campaign, the
surprise response was “three weeks
ago,” which is an amazing accomplishment given that these things usually
incur a lot of political ‘red tape’, but
Nicholas’ fight had been well known in
the community, both to the present and
previous administration,which no doubt
helped speed things along.
Golden balloons were tied to the
street sign as Lisa Forgione and other
volunteers tied yellow ribbons around
everybody’s wrists. September is
Children’s Cancer Awareness Month
and gold is the awareness color.
Many people were wearing Team
Pedone Tee shirts as there will be the
annual 5K Nicholas Pedone walk/run,
on Sunday September 7 starting at the
Glen Cove High School.
Jospehine Pedone, the young mother of Sweet Nicholas read a prepared
speech with her husband, also called
Nicholas, by her side. It was of course a
very emotional day for them. She
thanked the Zangaris for their support
and also Zefy Christopoulis, Chief of
Staff at City Hall, who had lost a son in
a tragic accident some years ago, so as
Zefy remarked, they share that common
bond.
Glen Cove Mayor Reggie Spinello
presented a citation to the Pedones, and
said how many people’s lives have been
touched by the terrible disease of cancer, and how Nicholas touched the
hearts of all of Glen Cove.
Former Glen Cove Mayor Ralph
Suozzi was at the ceremony, as were
City Councilmen Tony Jimenez, Tony
Gallo, Michael Famiglietti and council
woman Pam Panzenbeck, and a representative from Nassau County
Executive Ed Mangano’s office.
As Josephine spoke and the sign
was revealed the sun broke through the
clouds, as though Sweet Nicholas was
sending rays of sunshine for all the
friends and family. There wasn’t a dry
eye among the crowd.
After unveiling the sign Josephine
invited everybody back to her house for
refreshments, and to celebrate Nicholas’
birthday and his legacy of love.

TOB 9/11 Memorial Ceremony
Scheduled for Tuesday, September 9th
Oyster Bay Town Supervisor John
Venditto invites all residents, their families and friends to attend the Town’s 9/11
Memorial Ceremony to honor the memory of those lost on September 11, 2001.
The Town of Oyster Bay 9/11 Memorial
Ceremony is scheduled for Tuesday,
September 9th, beginning at 7 p.m. at
Tobay Beach.
“The Town’s September 11 memorial
is situated on the bayside of Tobay
Beach, where there is a direct line of sight
to where the Twin Towers once stood,”
Supervisor Venditto said. “It provides a
serene and peaceful surrounding, making
it a fitting backdrop for a place of remembrance.”
The Town’s memorial monument is
inscribed with the names of Town of
Oyster Bay residents lost on September
11, 2001. The memorial also features a
steel beam recovered from the World
Trade Center.
“What makes our memorial so meaningful is that it’s personal,” the
Supervisor said. “The men and women
whose names are on the wall were our
loved ones, our friends, our neighbors,
our colleagues. They rode their bikes
through our streets, swam at our beaches,
and enjoyed our parks. They lived here.”
The event on September 9th will
include a candlelight vigil, vocal performances, bagpipe music and religious
readings. In addition, the names of those
lost, who are inscribed on the wall, will
be read.
“I hope that all residents will join us
on Tuesday, September 9, to mark the
13th anniversary and honor the memory
of our beloved friends and neighbors who
perished on September 11, 2001,”
Supervisor Venditto concluded. “Being
with our family, friends and neighbors
helps us pay tribute to our loved ones and
share in the collective memory of those
we have lost.”
Families of 9/11 victims interested in
being on our mailing list, please contact
the Town’s Department of Community &
Youth Services at 797-7900.

EDITORIAL
EXODUS
In last week’s editorial this
newspaper extolled the action
taken by Governor Rick Perry (RTexas) in seeking to stop the flow
of illegal immigration on our
southern border. Many Americans
living on the east coast believed
this to be a border state problem;
however, figures released this past
Tuesday by the Federal Office of
Refugee Resettlement show 1,096
in the first seven months of this
year, unaccompanied illegal children under the age of 17, have been
deposited in Nassau County, and
1,181 in Suffolk. This represents
the third largest release of illegal
children in the entire United States.
One may argue that this is a
humanitarian effort, however,
when our senior citizens find they
can no longer afford to live out
their lives near their friends and
family, in homes they worked a
lifetime to acquire, and move out
of New York, then we ask what
about them? Failed federal immigration policy of non-enforcement
of our existing laws has caused the
flight of those who paid taxes,
demanded little and contributed to
the overall general welfare of the
community. The influx of these
children who have entered the
United States illegally will unquestionably place a burden on our
already overtaxed citizens, who are
struggling to remain in New York,
one of the highest taxed states in
the nation.
With the high cost of educating
each child, providing free health
and foster care not to mention all
the special needs of children such
as additional bi-lingual teachers in
our schools, the financial desperation experienced by our residents is
exacerbated.
In this past week we said goodbye to a couple in their early
nineties, who sadly sold their lifetime home to migrate south, since
living in New York was no longer
financially feasibly possible. Who
speaks for them? Certainly not our
timid legislators who are afraid of
offending any perceived voting
bloc. Who speaks for the immigrants from Europe, who in some
cases wait fourteen years to gain
legal entrance into our country?
Sadly, no one.

THANK YOU
To the Editor,
The residents of Bayville are very special people. Our dog, Scout, ran away
when spooked by fireworks Saturday
(8/23) night around 10 PM. He was visiting without son, Paul, while we were on
vacation.
After a long drive home from Maine
which began at 3 AM, we began driving
around the area around ridge Rd. calling
our dog’s name at 7:30 Am. As we drove
around everyone we met offered their
help to find Scout. Each person was caring and compassionate about trying to
find one’s lost dog.
Our son, Paul, posted notice on
Facebook about Scout with his photo.
This notice went out to all those he knew
in Bayville as well as LVFD. This led to
the finding of Scout.
What a glorious relief it was to see
Scout. He was very tired; his paws were
very sore and inflamed; he was dehydrated but he was alive and well.
Scout traveled 3 miles from Ridge Rd.
in Bayville to the far end of Factory Pond
rd. in Locust Valley. He was heading
home to South Sixth St. in Locust valley.
He traveled 14 hours!!
We want to thank everyone for their
concern and help in finding Scout, especially Thomas Hornosky who found him
at 150 Factory Pond Rd. Welcome home
Scout.

the entry applications is September 12th I

MEETING IN GLEN COVE
To the Editor,
We wanted to provide you a brief
update on the Villa at Glen Cove project
(the proposed residential building complex on Glen Cove Avenue, south of the
Boys & Girls club).
On July 29, 2014, the Planning Board
Paul and Dorothy Marecki
Paul Marecki Jr.
voted to recommend to the City Council
that bonus densities of an additional 20
units per acre could be approved. The
bonus densities are granted based on underground parking (17 units per acre) and
recreational amenities (3 units per acre).
This would allow the density of the Villa
project to be a total of 40 units per acre.
There will be a joint Planning Board
and City Council Meeting on September
30th to discuss and vote on the bonus densities. They will allow time for public
comments at this meeting so it is critical
that we all attend. Please put this meeting
on your calendar and let us know if you
can make it.
If you have any questions please let us
know.

LVHS Ranks Fourth in Nassau
Locust Valley High School (LVHS)
has been ranked fourth in Nassau County,
10th in the state, 22nd in the northeast and
71st in the nation by “The Daily Beast.”
According to The Beast, six indicators
from school surveys were used to compare
public high schools in the U.S., with graduation and college acceptance rates
weighing most heavily. Other criteria
included college-level courses and exams,
percentage of students with free or
reduced lunch and SAT / ACT scores.
“Locust Valley High School is certainly among the best in the nation and being
recognized as such is validation of the
hard work of the students, faculty and
community members who together make
this a great place to learn,” said superintendent of schools Dr. Anna F.
Hunderfund.
LVHS principal Dr. Kieran McGuire
said he is not surprised by the annual
recognitions of the school. “This ranking
recognizes the continual effort exhibited
by our students and staff.”
For several years, LVHS has been
named among the best by The Washington
Post, Newsweek, and U.S. News and
World Report.

GC Bonds for Challenges
The Glen Cove city council approved
serial bonds for approximately $810,000,
unanimously, at last Tuesday’s meeting.
There have been challenges for the
city in regard to employee termination
benefits, property taxes assessments, and
a settlement to Pall Corporation in Glen
Cove.
Another serial bond of approximately
$260,000 will be for accrued sick time
within the termination benefits. $550,000
will help with the court review of real
property tax assessments.
The total to Pall Corporation will be
$651,000, paid over three years, due to a
property tax assessment refund.
$109,000 from the serial bonds will be
given to Pall. Pall Corp. had agreed to
clean waste from its site to the tune of $2
million dollars. The State Department of
Environmental Conservation added Pall
to its Superfund registry in 1996 of inactive hazardous waste disposal sites. Pall
then appealed to the city about their property assessment. The property has been
cleaned and is up for sale.

Don’t Talk and Text
While Driving
Distracted driving is a dangerous epidemic on America’s roadways.
According to Distraction.gov, the official
website of the US Government for distracted driving, in 2012 alone, 3,328
were killed in distracted driving crashes.
Local leaders of Glen Cove and the
police are warning the public about talking and texting while operating a motor
vehicle. With the start of a new school
season drivers of all ages are warned that
police will be actively looking for these
types of distracted motorists.
The use of portable electronic devices
while driving includes, viewing, playing
games, composing or sending text, reading the device, and using the device to
send e-mails. Texting requires visual,
manual and cognitive attention by the
driver and is by far the most dangerous
form of distracted driving.
The penalty for being convicted of
texting while driving is currently five
driver violation points. The Glen Cove
Court will also impose a monetary fine of
$150.00, plus $88.00 in surcharges, to
those, convicted. Those with a Junior
drivers license or learners permit will
lose their license /permit for at least 60
days upon conviction.
The National Highway Traffic
Administration in a recent survey stated
that 10% off all drivers under the age of
20, who were involved in fatal car crashes, were reported as “distracted,” at the
time of the accident. The best way to end
distracted driving is to educate all drivers
on the danger it poses.

LV Republican Event
Temple Sinai’s Hineni Program
As part of the Hineni Program, students give a concert to senions at a local senior residence.
As school begins this September,
Temple Sinai’s Religious School in
Roslyn is looking forward to an exciting
year with many new options. Temple
Sinai students can choose different
opportunities and experiences to learn
and grow, both inside and outside the
temple.
This year the temple is offering a program that focuses on social action, the
Hineni Program. The program gives children in grades 4-6, a chance to participate
in acts of tikkum olam, repairing the
world, while connecting to Jewish tradition in ways that are meaningful to them.
It offers flexibility, allowing students to
design their own experience and to opt in
or out at any time.
Hineni students will have the opportunity to pick fruits and vegetables, which
will be donated to feed the hungry in the
community, investigate an oil spill and
focus on the impact of water pollution,
write cards to the IDF soldiers and collect
items to include in care packages for the
soldiers, learn about the Israeli Guide
Dog Center and meet a guide dog, learning how they improve the quality of life
for those they assist, cook for Veterans
living in a shelter, in addition to other
projects. There are many varied activities
to choose from, some appealing to interests the children already have, and others
opening their eyes to new and different
things.
Temple Sinai is delighted to offer this
program, inspiring children grades 4-6 to
personally experience the importance of
social action, and the value of helping
others. For more information about the
above program, Temple Sinai, or its
many other programs, please contact
Ethel Liebeskind at 516-621-6800 or at

CYCLING FOR CHANGE
• CHRISTINE LORING
Life is a circle, 360 degrees. The
wheel keeps turning, over and over.
There is change throughout our lives,
some want change, some do not. But, in
daily living, change is a constant, no matter how indelible or obvious, and when
one turns 180 instead of 360, something
happens in a different way, something
new begins. The logo on Cycling for
Change is, “Because HOPE changes
everything,” makes a statement, and the
intended mission of the organization is
that hope can overcome adversity.
"Cycling for Change," a non-profit, just
receiving their 501c3 status is turning
their bicycle wheels into making a difference in the heartbreaking injustice
throughout the world of human trafficking and child poverty. Hope, as we know,
makes a tremendous difference in daily
living.
Dr. Santhosh Paulus came up with an
idea when contemplating social injustice
that had bothered him immensely. It was
human poverty and human trafficking.
Several years ago on New Years Eve, at a
family gathering, the family shared their
one-year, five year and lifetime goals.
Santhosh said, as his long term goal, “I
would like to able to continuously sponsor 100 children through World Vision
until the end of my life.” A very worthy
endeavor; and then as he was teaching
Sunday school class about Noah, he wondered what would be his Ark. He realized, why wait to make an impact, he
could organize a bike ride across the U.S.
and raise money for organizations like
World Vision and Nomi Network to make
a change now. Sounds good to me!
And, so, it goes, this mammoth bike
ride will start on July 1, 2015, through
August 1st. It will be approximately
3,200 miles. The team will fly to Seattle
and bike 115 miles a day across the northern part of the U.S. to Long Island. 100s
of bikers will join in, along the way. The
training to do the trek is rigorous, and
hard. All proceeds will go to World
Vision and Nomi Network. Julie Gomez,
David Taylor and Santhosh, the
President, make up the Board for the
organization. Len Rodes is the Secretary.
There are about 30 volunteers helping
Santhosh Paulus (left) and the cycling team

out, mainly from the North Shore-LIJ
system at Glen Cove. The first phase of
fundraising was through, Indiegogo.com,
which kick started the momentum, and
then Village Sports in Locust Valley is
making T-shirts which will be sold in
their store, and Rick at Road Runners in
Glen Cove helped connect with Raleigh
to obtain bikes at a reduced cost. Mark
Bilbrey at the Grenville Baker Boys and
Girl Club will be hosting the Welcome
Back BBQ in August, 2015. So many
people and organizations are working
together to make this bike run, and cause
a success. Other fundraising events will
be upcoming in the year, but the main
venue to raise funds will be through the
website www.c4c2015.com.
Dr. Paulus's mother was a registered
nurse. His father's father was a physician
and died from typhoid fever when he
contracted the disease from one of his
patients in India. Santhosh's oldest broth-
er is a Family Medicine Physician, and
Santhosh decided to go into Medicine in
the eighth grade, when he was drawn into
medicine through his mother and brother's interaction with patients. Dr. Paulus is
the Associate Program Director of the
Family Medicine Residency Program at
NSLIJ at Glen Cove Hospital. He is the
president of the Medical Staff at Glen
Cove Hospital. Santosh is the father of
four beautiful girls and his wife, Rajdeep,
is a published author.
The Cycle for Change endeavor
includes, Alvim Gimarino, Julian
Valencia, Lyndon Espiritu, Arul PaulusRosenow, and Santhosh. The worthy
cause is a part of sentiment from Dr.
Paulus, in which he said, “I feel very fortunate and blessed to have been born in
America, and to have all the opportunities
that I have had growing up, and that I
continue to have. I do not take this for
granted. There are places in the world
where young children less than ten years
old walk many dangerous miles just to
have access to clean water, to bring back
to their families. Without water, their
families are unable to cook daily meals,
and have no water to drink. That is a lot
of responsibility for these little children.
They suffer, and they do not have an
opportunity to go to school, and they lack
medical attention. There are girls, and
women trapped in human trafficking. It
breaks my heart to think of this. There is
a sense of hopelessness. There can be
apathy in the world, and this is where I
would like to offer hope...because HOPE
changes everything.”
Cycling for Change is on the move.
And so, the wheel keeps turning, give, as
you can, it makes a difference, on the
180.

The Art of History: A Colonial Re-enactment
at Raynham Hall Museum
Raynham Hall Museum in Oyster
Bay, home of Robert Townsend of the
famed Culper Spy Ring, welcomes the
community to a historical re-enactment
presented by The Huntington Militia.
Sunday, September 21, 11am – 4pm. The
Militia will spend the day re-enacting
events of the Revolutionary War. The
Militia will present a colonial encampment and offer demonstrations of colonial life skills, including military drills for
children, a musket drill, colonial cooking
and craft demonstrations, and historic
games on the lawn.
The Museum will also present a fascinating theatrical experience for visitors.
Merchant Robert Townsend will be open
for business in his 18th century store,
where Oyster Bay’s Patriots and
Loyalists meet and sparks fly!
Raynham Hall staff and volunteers,
wearing their historic costumes, will also
be on hand with free ice cream for all!
This event is free and open to the public and includes entrance to the Museum.
Raynham Hall is located at 20 West Main
Street in Oyster Bay. The festivities begin
at 11am and end at 4pm. In the event of
heavy rain, the event will be postponed
until the following weekend, Sunday,
September 28 from 11-4.
About Raynham Hall Museum and
The Culper Spy Ring:
Raynham Hall Museum is a historic
house museum located in Oyster Bay. It
was owned by the Townsend family
whose son, Robert, was a spy for General
George Washington. The Culper Spy
Ring, conceived and operated by
Washington, was an indispensible part of
winning the war against the better
Childrens’ drill
Re-enactors with drum and muskets
financed and more numerous British
forces. Robert Townsend was code
named “Samuel Culper, Jr.” and posed as
a Loyalist in Manhattan while gathering
information on British troop movements.
The Culper Spy Ring is cited as a forerunner of today’s Central Intelligence
Agency.
About The Order of the Ancient and
Honorable Huntington Militia:
New Regulations to Battle Invasive Species
The DEC and the Departments of Agriculture and
Markets (DAM) issued final regulations to address the
damage caused by invasive species. The regulations are the
latest step in the state’s efforts to combat invasive species,
and preserve our local ecosystems.
Invasive species can cause serious harm to other species
and impair natural ecosystems,” Commissioner Martens
said. “These regulations will establish strict limits to better
control the spread of invasive species and help to protect
natural resources, habitats and biological diversity, including trees, crops and native species that are threatened by the
presence of invasives.”
State Agriculture Commissioner Richard A. Ball said,
“Invasive species pose a serious threat to New York agriculture, which is why we dedicate so much time and energy to
combat these non-native threats to our farms. We are
pleased to actively partner with DEC in these efforts to protect our state's food supply, ecosystems and economy, and
will work to ensure that these rules provide maximum protection for consumers and all affected industries.”
In early July, Governor Cuomo urged all New Yorkers
to take action to protect lands and waters from invasive
species that can be harmful to human health, animal habitat, agriculture and tourism, by designating New York’s
first-ever Invasive Species Awareness Week. Invasive
species are harmful non-native species, including plants,
insects, fish and mammals, that were imported or released
– often accidently – from other areas of the world. Many
invasive species such as the Eurasian Boar, Asian
Longhorned Beetle, Emerald Ash Borer, and Northern
Snakehead fish can cause significant damage to natural
communities in New York State. Since 2011, $30 million
in state funds has been allocated toward preventing the
Pat Roos with herbs
spread of invasive species.
Under the regulations, DEC and DAM created lists of
prohibited and regulated species, and established measures
to prevent their release in the state. The regulations make it
unlawful to knowingly possess a prohibited species with the
intent to sell, import, purchase, transport, or introduce.
Regulated species are those that have been determined to
have the potential to cause harm to New York’s ecology, or
human health but also have positive socio-economic benefits and which may be effectively contained through regulatory programs. Regulated species may be possessed, sold,
purchased, propagated, and transported, but may not be
knowingly introduced into a free-living state such as being
released or planted in lands or waters in a manner that the
individual introducing them should know would result in
the species being introduced into a free-living state.
The Prohibited and Regulated Invasive Species regulations go into effect six months following the date of publication of the final regulations in the State Register, which
will be September 10, 2014. The six month grace period
before the regulations take effect provides the regulated
community time to sell existing stocks, and to transition to
alternatives. Also recognizing the commercial importance
of specific species, the regulations provide for an additional one year grace period for the possession, sale, purchase,
transportation or introduction of Japanese Barberry. Costs
to industry also are mitigated by continuing to allow the sale
of certain regulated species with conditions attached, rather
than prohibiting their sale entirely.
The rule, including lists of prohibited and regulated
species, may be viewed by visiting the Division of
Lands and Forests regulations web site at
http://www.dec.ny.gov/regulations/2359.html.
The Huntington Militia is a colonial
living history re-enactment group that
traces its roots back to Huntington’s
founding in 1653 and is the official ceremonial guard of the Town of Huntington.
Anniversary of
US Constitution
TOB Supervisor John Venditto urges people
to take a few moments to reflect on the United
States Constitution on September 17th, 227
years to the day since its adoption.
“The United States Constitution has served
as the cornerstone of American democracy for
227 years now,” Supervisor Venditto said. “The
Constitution stands as the oldest written national constitution in use in the history of the world.
This is because our forefathers crafted this document, after long and sometimes contentious
deliberations, into what is as a ‘living instrument
of government’ able to be applied and passed
down through successive generations.”
“It is ironic that while people in other countries are fighting and dying to secure for themselves what our Constitution guarantees every
American as a right of birth, others have
attacked us because of the principles our nation
represents,” the Supervisor stated. “As
Americans, we must never forget that our freedom came at a high price. It was bought and
paid for by the blood of men and women who
saw freedom as a cause worth fighting and
dying for, and down through the years,
that same price has been exacted to maintain our
liberty.
“American statesman Henry Clay said of our
Constitution: ‘The Constitution of the United
States was made not merely for the generation
that then existed, but for posterity-unlimited,
undefined, endless, perpetual posterity.”

High school seniors throughout our
community are beginning the process of
applying to college. The mission of
Grenville Baker is to inspire and to
enable all young people to realize their
potential as productive, responsible and
caring citizens and community leaders of
tomorrow. Helping our teens with the
college admission process is an important step toward that goal.
From the beginning of their freshman year in high school, our teens are
preparing for their future. College
admissions officers tell us that good
grades are the single most important factor in their selection process. We can
help your child succeed in school with
tutors on hand every day after school to
provide assistance with homework, projects and studying. The Club also offers a
Write Now program to strengthen a student’s basic grammar and writing skills
through storytelling and original thinking. Teens can learn to develop and to
articulate a concise and well thought out
argument on today’s issues through participation in our Debate Club. Our
Technology programs provide an opportunity to take their acumen and interests
beyond the classroom, something every
college wants to see.
Another important factor for college
selection is the applicant’s record of
extracurricular activities and community
service. Grenville Baker provides our
teens with extracurricular activities that
range from athletics to the arts as well as
opportunities for service such as tutoring, coaching and other leadership roles.
Our Club’s teenage leadership group, the
Keystone Club, partners with other community groups like Habitat for the
Humanities, Meals on Wheels,
Schneider’s Children’s Hospital, Ronald
McDonald House and the Miracle
League, for our members to get involved
and to provide meaningful service.
Our College Prep/SAT Prep Course
is taught by a professional instructor
beginning September 18 and runs
throughout the school year. The class
prepares candidates for the May 2015
SAT, reviewing test taking strategies and
strengthening English, Math and Writing
skills. Throughout the year, the Club
offers workshops on what to expect during their first year of college and college
tours of campuses in the region with both
overnight and day trips.
Once senior year has arrived, filling
out each college application can present
an arduous task. Tips on organization
and time management can help. Staff
members give feedback and advice on
each student’s resume in addition to oneon-one help with college essays. Seniors
are encouraged to apply during the winter to the Club and other sources for college scholarships.
With my daughter entering her second year of college, I know the ups and
downs of the college admissions journey.
I am proud of the role our Club can play
in smoothing the way for so many kids.
We hope all our parents can experience
that sense of pride and excitement as we
send our children off to experience this
next important step in life.

Girls Club won the Nassau County
P.A.L. Championship when they defeated Oyster Bay in the playoffs by a score
of 8-1. Matt Jehn led off with a walk.
Dennis McJeefrey reached base on a
fielder’s choice. Peter Terrana walked.
Carlos Saavedra hit a double to right
field driving in two runs. In the third
inning Jeff Patti and Matt Jehn each had
base hits.
Residents were worried that many
leaves were turning brown and (seemingly) prematurely falling from the
trees. According to the Nassau County
Cooperative Extension, the heavy rains
that had fallen that past spring may have
been the culprit.
Subdivision had begun on the Mill
Neck property of La Colline. The beautiful tennis court had been taken out as
had most of the other outbuildings.
Only the rambling French provincialstyle house remained.

Origins:
READ THE RIOT ACT
These days, angry parents might threaten to “read the riot act” to their
unruly children. But in 18th-century England, the Riot Act was a very real document, and it was often recited aloud to angry mobs. Instituted in 1715, the Riot
Act gave the British government the authority to label any group of more than
12 people a threat to the peace. In these circumstances, a public official would
read a small portion of the Riot Act and order the people to “disperse themselves, and peaceably depart to their habitations.”

WA LT E R ,
Carmen, born
September 12,
1931 of North
Andover, MA,
formerly
of
Locust Valley,
NY transitioned
peacefully on
August 25th.
She lived
with passion
and commitment. Her personal beliefs, attitude and philosophy of
living were positively charged and
inspiring. The part of her that was a
teacher defined the essence of her soul.
Her lust for learning, work ethic and
commitment to education was insatiable.
As a wife, mother, grandmother, motherin-law, sister, aunt, friend and teacher
she found time for everyone and deeply
cared about each relationship. She was
inherently programmed to give of herself and found such joy in seeing others
succeed. She was a teacher at Locust
Valley Elementary School for thirty-two
years. She taught at the fourth and sixth
grade levels until a moment in time
when inspiration aligned with opportunity and she created an innovative and
award-winning curriculum for the
“Gifted” called the “Omega Program.”
The learning center was based on nontraditional methods of problem solving.
It used creativity and imagination to
connect the threads of innovation hidden
within positive knowledge. On top of
that, she created a complementary pro-
gram named the “Revolving Door” especially for children that had a focused
passion in a particular area. This construct was based in her belief that “all
children were gifted in one way or
another.” She personally created hundreds of individual curriculums in order
to address the most inquisitive parts of
each child's mind delivered in mediums
that addressed a multitude of learning
styles. When she retired in 1996, she
became a docent at The Nassau County
Art Museum in Roslyn Harbor, NY. She
specialized in introducing blind children
to the museum, creating mental images
and context for them. She also lectured
at adult education events giving deeper
meaning and understanding to influential historical artists.
Her personal life was immersed in
the same depth of caring, companionship, guidance and giving. She was
deeply in love with her artist husband
Vail Walter whom she supported and
encouraged to experiment and create.
They truly enjoyed each other's company and were a lasting example of love
and commitment. As an only child I was
the beneficiary of two exceptionally creative people. I was emerged in a
"vision", which allowed me to participate and believe in love and humanity
through the appreciation of man's creativity. Music, art, literature, cooking,
comedy, architecture, nature, building,
different cultures, you name it, we were
always learning. They were “makers.”
She embraced my family by loving my
wife, Betsy, and feeling so impressed
with, and loving so deeply her grandson,
Cameron. As some of you may know we
lost our first son Little Vail to a genetic
disorder at the age of two. My Mom
dove in wholeheartedly with her usual
warmth and passion, claiming that
“Little Vail’s life must not be a tragedy,
but one that shown bright however
short.”
She loved and cared for her own parents and had a wonderful lasting relationship with her younger sisters,
Mercedes Latham and Elvira Robinson.
All three attended Oswego College as
teachers. She loved her nieces and
nephews taking great joy in their accomplishments.
After
moving
to
Massachusetts to be close to family,
Carmen lived at Great Hill in Topsfield,
MA where she enjoyed many new and
lasting friendships.
I know that my Mom cared about
each and every young person she had the
pleasure to meet. She loved to play her
ukulele, sing, dance, learn and pay it forward. Through the introduction of social
media, so many of you have asked about
her over the years, sharing such nice
sentiments and moments in time. I am
humbled. I also know that my Mom
loved my Dad and me very, very much,
I am so proud of her and the way she
lived. My Mom suffered from Dementia.
She wouldn’t give up, right until the end,
insisting in her own way that she leave
the physical world with some element of
dignity. Ultimately, she controlled her
own destiny and transitioned on her own
terms. Thank you all for making her life
so rich and in turn mine. - Glen Walter
Funeral Services are private.
Assisting the family with the arrangements is the Peterson-O'Donnell Funeral
Home 167 Maple St., (rte 62) Danvers.
In lieu of flowers, if you would like to
make a donation in memory of Carmen
Walter, to the “Carmen Walter
Scholarship Fund,” the donations will be
offered to help children and teachers in
the community where she taught for
over thirty years. Donations can be

Road, Boxford, MA 01921. To share a

Still Life
Among the artists in the Photorealism exhibition are Chuck Close, Audrey Flack, Ralph
Goings, Duane Hanson, and Idell Weber,
Malcolm Morley, and Ben Schonzeit. A significant trend in the 1970s. The work in the
exhibition is very compelling. Photorealism
has sometimes been described since the 70s
as a more mechanical offshoot of the 1960s
Pop art. However, the works in Still Life
make a compelling argument that
Photorealists captured life in the 70s with a
grittier honesty than has previously been
acknowledged.
