Pryibil Beach Clean‑up Compromise in Bayville New Ranking for LVHS Cycling for Change Page 2 Page 3 Page 5 Page 7 Page 2 The Leader September 3, 2014 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. Affected community members can contact Robert Linley at [email protected], or T. Kevin Murtha at [email protected] 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. Page 4 The Leader September 3, 2014 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.

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. more aware of this Fair. The deadline for the entry applications is September 12th I know that it may be cutting it close but it would be greatly appreciated if you could put this into the paper. To enter your craft call 516-572-8401 for an application. There is a drop off box at Bayville Library. Thank You, Mary Kenny 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. Best Regards, Roni Epstein Grace Slezack Yes, I want The Leader.

They also met with their building principals and learned specifics regarding their individual jobs. These faculty members were hired to replace retirees, teachers on leave and to fill other vacancies. Tours of the schools, important human resource information and an overview of the district’s policies and culture were part of the day. Board of Education Vice President Erika Bruno told the new teachers that they were obviously among the best in their fields as the hiring process was extremely vigilant.

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.

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. Page 6 The Leader September 3, 2014 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. l-r: Lieutenant Ortiz, School Board President Richard Maccarone, Superintendent of Schools Maria Rianna, Mayor Reginald Spinello, Chief William Whitton, Deputy Chief Robert MacDonald, Lieutenant John Nagle, Lieutenant Patrick Wright. 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 www.mysinai.org.

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 Photo courtesy of Cycling 4 Change 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. %)$ #& $"!

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.” September 3, 2014 The Leader Page 11 Hazy Daze 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.

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.” Page 12 The Leader September 3, 2014 The Leader Business Directory NEW & USED BOATS Preception Kayaks - Full Line of Fishing Tackle & Bait, Marine Supplies & Accessories Come visit our Clam bar at 40 Ludlam Ave. 19 Ludlam Avenue, Bayville, NY 11709 www.bridgemarinesales.com (516) 628-8686 *0&-1# #!+.0&2# #0( #/0+.0&+* .// +(&/%&*$ !-1#.&*$ 6 #!+.0&2# ."3.# &.#,(!# !!#//+.&#/ 6 &$%0&*$ &401.#/ .+1$%0 .+* *" (/0&*$ &*0&*$ 1/0+) #0( .&!0&+* )&( /2$#)#0()!!+) CALLAHAN HOME HOME SERVICES SERVICES Home Improvement & Caretaking Services SMALL REPAIR SPECIALIST Licensed Insured Local (516) 671-8757 &!'1, #(&2#.5 "Don't Move, Improve!"

A service was held at the Funeral Home of Dodge-Thomas. Interment at Wellwood Cemetery. www.DodgeThomas.com 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 mailed C/O Glen Walter, 48 High Ridge Road, Boxford, MA 01921.

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.
