Store in Larchmont!
On Friday December
18, 2015 on Palmer Avenue in
Larchmont a new era of supermarketing began with the
opening of DeCicco & Sons
market. With just the right
recipe of innovative, “Green &
Clean” technologies with the
old world philosophy of Quality First, the exciting Grand
Opening celebration included Larchmont Mayor Anne
McAndrews and Westchester
County Executive Rob Astorino, who presented a proclamation to the DeCicco Family stating that, “December 18,
2015 be declared DeCicco &
Sons Recognition Day in Westchester County.”
Visually,
the
25,000
square ft. store is a sparkling
beauty, complete with a second
story mezzanine that features
a full-service craft beer & wine
bar and a rotating selection of
beers on tap. The area also offers ample room for dining,
relaxing, television and wifi
access. Remarkably, this area
is only one facet of DeCicco &
Sons’ shopping experience.
It’s the unique, technological

advancements, “behind the

Sons new location extraordinary.
According to John DeCicco, Jr., President of DeCicco
& Sons, “Life is only important when it has an impact on
the lives of others. So when it
comes to the world we live in,
our generation has to make a
commitment to meet the energy challenges put before us
and sustain a clean and healthy

ing the very best quality food
and products, the very best
selection, with the very best
service.”
DeCicco & Sons’ is reinforcing the “green philosophy”
for its all-new Larchmont location by pursuing a highly
standardized certification via
strong governmental leadership and encouragement. As
DeCicco explains, “One of our
objectives is to aggressively
attain one of the most significant “Green” certifications
that the Federal Government
has to offer. It’s called a LEED
Certification”. As part of the
U.S. Green Business Council,
LEED (Leadership in Energy
& Environmental Design) is
considered the world’s premier benchmark for highperformance green buildings,
with a certification program
that recognizes best-in-class
building strategies and practices. LEED-certified facilities, such as the new DeCicco
& Sons store, are designed to
save money and resources,
and have a positive impact on
the health of occupants, while
promoting renewable, clean
energy.”
Some of the advanced,
innovative technologies being used by DeCicco & Sons
in Larchmont include: Zeroozone, state-of-the-art equipment will be the subject of
a comprehensive case study
being conducted by leading
governmental scientific and
engineering agencies. It systematically takes all of the
wasted heat that’s generated
from the refrigeration system
and transfers it to reusable
energy to power machines to
chill water, and provide heat
and hot water for the entire
store. Simple, clean, reusable
energy that is cost efficient,
and ultimately has less reliance on fossil fuels.
In addition, the following is part of a collective list
of accomplishments that meet
the LEED certification requirements:
1.
Rooftop
solar panels generate 75% of the
store’s electricity
during peak sunlight.
2. Utilization
of “Daylight Harvesting” reduces
electricity usage
during peak daylight hours
3.
Motion
sensors help reduce electricity
usage during low
occupancy.
4. Advanced, energy-efficient L.E.D. lighting uses 1/4th
of the energy compared to conventional lighting.
5. 50% energy reduction
with monitored night curtains
on open refrigeration.
6. Reduced water usage
via low-flow fixtures and appliances.
7. Humidity and temperature levels of store are efficiently monitored, maintained
and conserved 24/7.
8.
Recycled
glass
“Positive(TM)” was used as a
replacement for Portland cement.
9. Reclaimed wood from
century-old barns in upstate
New York and buildings in NYC
was used.
10. The use of reclaimed
bricks from century-old buildings in Merrimack Valley, MA.
11. General contracting
and steel fabrications was locally sourced.
12. The strong promotion
of reusable tote bags to avoid
paper waste & save trees.
13. The installation of
a bicycle rack to encourage
more bikes and fewer cars for
cleaner air.
DeCicco continued, “I
have learned that the successful solution for utmost energy
efficiency is not doing only one
thing, but doing many things …
having all of the advancements
and technologies working together as one… not individual
or independent installations,
but a multiple of components
that feed off one another. So it’s
a significant investment, but
we firmly believe, a smart one
with long lasting dividends for
this generation and the ones to
follow.”
As DeCicco explained,
“Our brand mantra ‘Quality First’ extends far beyond
our superior food products.
It means caring for the environment and the communities we serve by supporting
clean energy technologies.
We have a “green philosophy”
that includes protecting our
environment with advanced,
innovative energy solutions.
The objective is to increase
energy efficiency with renewable energy, and reducing the
reliance on fossil fuels. The
benefits the environment and
our economy, and helps move
our country toward a cleaner
energy future.”
The new DeCicco & Sons
Larchmont is located at 2141

Public Hearing to Override Tax Levy Rescinded; Budget within
Tax Cap at COW Meeting
Mayor Noam Bramson announced at the New Rochelle
December 1st City Council Committee of the Whole
III discussed an Analytics Position and relayed Deputy Commissioner/Building Department
Official Paul Vacca’s request for 3
additional Housing Inspectors; 2
new Code Enforcement Inspec-
Sean McLean, Vice President Development and Planning, Renaissance Downtowns (left) and Gregory Merchant, President, Investment Design Properties
Limited
(COW) meeting that the Public
Hearing to override the Tax
Levy Limit was rescinded since
the 2016 Budget is within the Tax
Cap.
In his 2016 Budget Estimate,
City Manager Charles B. Strome
tors, one Plan Examiner and an
additional clerical position.
Acknowledging that revenue from Red Light Cameras
would not appear in the 2016 Budget, Councilman Louis Trangucci asked about paying for them;
Strome replied that payments are
funded by a percentage of fines
with no cash outlay from the City.
Regarding the proposed
adoption of State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA)
for the Downtown Overlay Zone
(DOZ) and Zoning Map Amendments, Trangucci expressed
three major concerns: 1) Expansion of Essential Services, arbitrarily submitting Site Plans to
Police and Fire Departments for
their input; 2) Impact on Columbus School students in his District; 3) Tax abatements/Payment
in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT).
“The Council supports the
Industrial Development Agency’s
(IDA) gradual reduction of the
PILOT Plan, instead of a fixed
number over a long duration,”
Trangucci noted. Commissioner
of Development Luiz Aragon
agreed, stating that as part of IDA’s
Uniform Tax Exemption Policy
(UTEP), later PILOT applications
would be less generous as time
goes by.
Strome went on to say that
the State Department of Environment (DEC) has issued a Consent
Order on Westchester County
Councilman Lou Trangucci
to reduce Inflow and Infiltration
(I&I) from their Stormwater System into County Sewer System of
no more than 150 gallons/capita/
day.
“We don’t have a joint system,” Strome said. “We operate our sewer system under our
streets. The water goes to the
County system and their treat-

the City, Larchmont, Mamaroneck and Pelham Manor to try
to convince the County to take
over the whole system.
Action on the 2016 Budget,
DOZ SEQRA Findings and Zoning
Map Amendments will be taken
at the Tuesday, December 8th
meeting.

Not everybody agreed
with the adoption of DOZ and
CBP. Shortly before the meeting, the Ad Hoc Committee
for Economically and Envi-
ronmentally Responsible New
Rochelle Development, led
by Habitat for Humanity Executive Director Jim Killoran
unfurled a banner in front
of Council Chambers reading “Postpone the Vote, Comprehensive Plan Now” plus a
placard calling for more retail,
affordable housing and less
luxury units.
“We are asking for the
vote to be postponed tonight
and a comprehensive plan
for everybody including the
African-American community,
small businesses downtown,
North End, and South End.
“We need to have an inclusive vote…Let’s make a
Comprehensive Plan for the
citizens of New Rochelle. It’s
our City, not the developers,”
Killoran stressed.
NRCA’s Exhibit “Art a la Carte!”
at City Hall’s Rotunda Gallery
The New Rochelle Council on the Arts current exhibition at City Hall in the Rotunda Gallery is
entitled “Art a la Carte!” The exhibit runs through January 29, 2016. The show features a mash-up
of the works of a variety of artistic styles ranging from vibrant oils of larger-than-life crustaceans, to
playful ceramic teapots, to colorful collages using found objects and everyday articles. The eleven
artists from New Rochelle, White Plains, the Bronx, Mamaroneck, Mt. Vernon and Pelham selected
the artwork, just as one would select a dish from a menu, for this year-end exhibit.
The artists include: Shahaan Azeem, Fani Miller-Beard, Anne Therese Dillen, OSU, Cecilia
Duncan, Heather Fazzino, Livia Gus, Carleen Murdock, Irene Pastarnack, Jesse Sanchez, Ruchama
Schecter and Joel Trieger. The NRCA Rotunda Gallery is located at City Hall, 515 North Avenue, New
Rochelle. Gallery hours are: Monday through Friday from 10 am to 4 pm. Located on the first floor
of City Hall, the gallery is wheelchair accessible.
The New Rochelle Council on the Arts was created by the New Rochelle City Council in 1975 to
stimulate and encourage the study and presentation of the performing and fine arts; for 40 years
NRCA has worked to fulfill that mission by sponsoring art exhibitions, theatrical productions, dance
recitals, film screenings, lectures, and concert series. In addition, NRCA has sponsored public art
-- like the popular Fleur-de-Lis sculptures downtown -- and created ArtsFest, while helping to build
relationships between the arts, the business community and city government. The NRCA website
www.newrochellearts.org has become major resource for artists and art lovers – the “go-to” place
for information about the arts. Membership in NRCA is open to artists and non-artists alike, with
members receiving special discounts and invitations to networking events and studio tours. For
more information visit NRCA on the web at www.newrochellearts.org. NRCA’s programs are made
possible, in part, by ArtsWestchester with funds from Westchester County Government, the City of
New Rochelle, and the support and participation of NRCA’s membership.

New Rochelle Students Take Virtual Reality
Tours of the World in “Google Expeditions”
Pioneer Program
5
Late in the first half of
the school year, students
from several schools in the
City School District of New
Rochelle had the opportunity
to take part in the revolutionary “Google Expeditions” Pioneer Program. Using virtual
reality technology, students
8-18 years old were given the
opportunity to take threedimensional tours of places
around the world without
leaving their classrooms.
Google worked with teachers
and content partners globally to create more than 100
engaging journeys - making it
easy to immerse students in
entirely new experiences.
Students from Webster Elementary School
The program works by
turning smart phones into three-dimensional screens with the use of special lenses in a box called
a “Google Cardboard Viewmaster.” Since not all students are certain to have smart phones, the Pioneer Program loans the classes all the necessary equipment including Asus smartphones, a router,
the viewmasters and a tablet that allows the teacher to become a virtual tour guide. Teachers were
able to lead students on “visits” to famous locations and landmarks including the Great Wall of China, the Great Barrier Reef and even Mars in three dimensions and a full 360-degree field of vision.
Students can simply turn their heads and look around and experience the sights of a distant location
as if they were actually there.
The program began with a visit to Daniel Webster Elementary School and then Albert Leonard
Middle School, Isaac E. Young Middle School, Columbus Elementary School, Jefferson Elementary
School, Trinity Elementary School, and William B. Ward Elementary.
“We so appreciate Stephen Fang, from Google Education for supporting the City School District
of New Rochelle and inviting us to participate in this pilot program. It was motivating and highly
engaging for our students and teachers, and we look forward to other innovation opportunities from
Google for Education,” expressed Dr. Christine L. Coleman, Director of Technology, CSDNR.
Espichan Joins Staff at the Boys & Girls Club
of New Rochelle
In the summer of 2015, BGCNR
welcomed Betzally Espichan as Director of the Ward Elementary School
after-school program. Betzally graduated from the College of New Rochelle
(CNR) with a Bachelor of Arts degree
in Spanish and a minor in psychology,
completing CNR’s Childhood Education program. According to Eric Woodlin, Director of Operations, “Betzally’s
intelligence, confidence and energy are
unyielding. This allows her to provide
notable programming and activities to
our Ward Club members.”
Over the last 5 years, Betzally assisted teachers in the Bronx and New
Rochelle classrooms of various academic levels, and is currently working
as a substitute teacher in the Port
Chester school district. In addition, she
is working on obtaining certification as Betzally Espichan
a K-6 elementary school teacher. Her
commitment to the social and academic growth of every student, no matter his/her background
motivates her to continue her education to pursue a Master’s in bilingual and bicultural education.
Betzally says, “Her experience has taught her to differentiate to students’ individual needs, ensuring that every child’s learning style and abilities are addressed.” Being a Peruvian native, having
to adapt to a new culture and language helps her connect to those students who struggle facing new
challenges. As director, Betzally aims to foster meaning full relationships, between students, staff
and parents.

The Sharing Shelf of FSW and Junior League
of Westchester on the Sound Collaborate on
Successful Teen Boutique Event
On Saturday, November 14th, 2015, The Sharing
Shelf of Family Services of
Westchester (FSW) held its
seventh semi-annual Teen
Boutique event for teenage girls at the New York
Covenant Church in New
Rochelle. Nearly 170 girls
from communities throughout Westchester County had
an opportunity to “shop”
for clothing, shoes and accessories, which had been
donated by Westchester
residents and displayed
boutique-style by volunteers. The Junior League of
Westchester on the Sound
(JLWOS) partnered with
The Sharing Shelf on this
event. FSW Board member
Dierdra Gray Clark, a minister at the New York Covenant Church, arranged for
the space to be made avail-

were killed during the savage German counter offensive staged during the closing months of World War II and many more were wounded. It took courage, sacrifice and valor to beat back the Nazi attack. Joining the services are Bulge veterans (left to right) Irving Greger of

“I am amazed by the
incredible volunteers who
step forward every year to
make this event a success,”
said Deborah Blatt, Program
Director. “We saw an outpouring of donations from

community. I am so grateful to stores and businesses
who either donated items or
opened their doors as collection sites.” More than180
volunteers were on hand
over 3 days to help create the
one-day event. “All of this
effort is completely worth
it when you see the faces
of the girls who walk away
with their bags brimming
with “new” clothing,” added
Ms. Blatt. “Clothing is way of
expressing themselves and
contributes to their self esteem. I see it when the girls
are shopping – they arrive
reserved and shy, then leave
smiling from ear to ear.”
“The Junior League of

more teens from families in

for JLWOS.
The girls who attended
were from Port Chester,
New Rochelle, White Plains,
Ossining, Yonkers, Mount

Pleasantville, Mamaroneck,
Dobbs Ferry and Elmsford.
They had been referred by
22 different social service
agencies, schools, community groups or churches.
By the end of the day, over
4,500 items had been distributed not only to the
girls who attended but others from residential facilities such as Children’s Village, St. Christopher’s and

coats, handbags, scarves,

New Rochelle Review
Wonderful City: Carnival Time in Rio
BY BARBARA BARTON SLOANE
Cidade Maravilhosa –
Wonderful City. This is the
name the Cariocas (residents
of Rio) fondly call their town –
and with good reason. A city of
six million inhabitants, Rio de
Janeiro has a special vibe all its
own – a Samba vibe, to be sure,
and it all begins when we deplane at Tom Jobim, an airport
like no other. Warm smiles
greet you, music pulses from
all corners of the building,
and men and women sway to
the beat of Samba. The city is
gearing up for its most famous
event – Carnival – and so am I!
First reached in January,
1501 by Portuguese explorers
in an expedition led by Amerigo Vespucci, the Europeans
thought at first the Bay of Guaranbara was the mouth of a river
which they then named “Rio de
Janeiro,” river of January. Our
ride from the airport to Copacabana Beach seemed to take
just about as long as it probably
took those explorers to discover Rio. Traffic here is appalling
and driving even a very short
distance takes hours. Finally
ensconced in my hotel room,
I checked out the scene from
my window. Below all was bustling and vibrant. I smiled as I
glimpsed the familiar sight long
associated with Rio, the wavepatterned sidewalks and Copacabana Beach. Gentle waves
wash the shore and the ocean
curves off into the distant, oddshaped mountains beyond.
To call Rio informal is a
gross understatement. The
sidewalks teemed with people
in various stages of undress –
short shorts, minis and teeny,
tiny string bikinis that adorned
bronzed, beautiful bodies.
This is not a place for the shy,
the retiring, or for my boring,
one-piece black bathing suit.
In fact, the color black must
be banned in Brazil. Instead,
a kaleidoscope of riotous color
reigns. Later, I peered from
your hotel window at about 3
a.m. and was surprised to see
the beach still alive with countless strollers, water gently lapping at their ankles. Rio’s citizens routinely hit the beach on
their lunch hour, as well. For
them, the beach is an integral,
necessary part of life. Quite
simply, here life is a beach.
I planned on getting in
some each time myself but the
main reason I’m here is for
Carnival so let the noite (party)
Rio’s Copacabana Beach, image courtesy of Michael Sloane Photography
begin! The first records of this
festival date back to 1723 when
immigrants from the Portuguese islands introduced it
to Rio and, by 1855, Carnival
acquired unique elements derived from the African culture
– organized parades, luxurious
costumes, music, masks and
flowers. Fast forward to the 21st
century with the event drawing
500,000 foreign visitors and
tens of thousands participating in spectacular parades with
fantasy floats and dancing till
dawn at the Sambodrome – an
event that everyone must experience at least once in life.
During these four days offices,
banks and shops close. Everything stops and the insanity begins. As sure as the glorious sun
shines on this luminous city,
without fail, Rio’s Carnival will
take place again in 2016 from
February 5 through Fat Tuesday, February 10.
Gearing up for my first
night of Carnival, I spent an
inordinate amount of time that
morning choosing my dress for
the famed Copacabana Palace
Ball. Then I was off for some
serious Rio sightseeing. And
what was my first sight? Just
the largest art deco statue in
the world, Cristo Redentor,
Christ the Redeemer, the beloved symbol that looms over
the city and is considered its
protector. It is 73 years old, 125
feet high and rests atop Corco-
vado Mountain. My reward for
climbing the 220 steps to the
top (there’s an elevator if you
don’t fancy the climb) was a
euphoric feeling of standing
on top of the world with a panoramic view of sea, sky, mountains and the beaches of Lagoa,
Ipanema and Leblon.
Because of its height and
its unmistakable outline, Sugar Loaf is one of Rio’s main attractions. On a cable car that
has been in operation since
1912, the first leg of my ascent
took me to a height of 720 feet
above sea level and a stop at
the Morro da Urca plateau.
There our car was boarded by a
group of boisterous musicians
who gaily played and sang us
to the summit. Sugar Loaf is
a green, unearthly peak that
rises over the city and affords
a bird’s eye view from Copacabana Beach to the Corcovado
Mountain. Feeling adventurous? You can take a helicopter
ride which leaves from the first
plateau. Really adventurous or
slightly mad? Try climbing up
this mountain. Peer down over
the sheer vertical side of Sugar
Loaf and see tiny, ant-like figures attempting to make their
way to the top. They, more
than I who rode a cable car,
will find the stunning views a
just reward.
Throughout the four days
of Carnival, there are Bandas
(street parades) that take place
in the many Rio neighborhoods. Each Banda consists
of an orchestra playing wellknown music that everybody
sings along with. My march
along the Ipanema Banda
found streets filled with hordes
of enthusiastic people dancing
the samba in costumes, bathing suits, special T-shirts and
even in drag. The crowds was
so thick I was literally carried
along, at times wondering if I’d
ever see my safe, relatively quiet
hotel again. Happily, I made it!
The highlight of Carnival
is the Samba Parade which is
held at the Sambodrome. The
parade starts at 9 p.m., both
nights featuring six Samba
Schools, each group with as
many as 10,000 revelers (you
read it right) marching down
the Passarela do Samba, the
runway. The event ends at
dawn the next morning. The
phrase Samba School is actually somewhat of a misnomer.
It is not a teaching institution;
you cannot go there to learn
to Samba (a dance unique to
Brazil and invented by poor
Afro-Brazilians). Instead, the
70 Samba Schools in Rio rep-
resent eight neighborhoods
that work all year to build the
floats, make the costumes and
choreograph the dances they
will perform in the parade. All
night I sat mesmerized, viewing the parade in this amphitheater which was designed
by the renowned Brazilian
architect Oscar Niemeyer.
Back in the mid-eighties, the
Samba Parades had become
too big for improvisation in
the streets and needed a professional site to perform in.
When commissioned to build
the Sambodrome which was
to be completed in 110 days,
Niemeyer said “We built the
capital Brasilia in four years.
We certainly can build the
Sambodrome in four months,”
and he did.
Too soon, Mardi Gras, Fat
Tuesday arrived. Carnival in Rio
is a unique experience. Discard
inhibitions, wear a wild costume, just let go and have a blast.
In short, it’s a moment you will
never, ever forget. And, however
cheesy it may sound, Rio de Janeiro - mad, magical and mysterious - allows you to live out,
if only for a brief moment, your
fantasies and dreams.
Noite - Party on!

A New Year’s Resolution for the Whole Family
BY BERNARD A. KROOKS, CELA
As 2016 gets underway,
many of us have made or will
make resolutions about things
we are going to do to improve
our lives or the lives of people
we care about. I’d like to talk
about one that perhaps you
may not have thought about.
Many adult children are concerned that their parents may
not have a proper estate plan
in place. The children are worried that if something happens
to one or both parents, the children will not be equipped to
assist their parents, and many
times the children have no idea
where the parents stand financially. Understandably, these
subjects may be hard for children to discuss with their parents. The children do not want
to appear greedy, and the parents may fear loss of control or
independence.
So, how can you approach
your parents about these issues? First, you should get
your own house in order; make
sure that you have executed
your own will, durable power
of attorney, and advance medical directives. After you learn
about these tools, then you
should be able to approach
your parents by referring to
the fact that you have taken
care of these matters for yourself. Then, ask your parents if
they have done the same planning. The goal is to balance
safety with independence, and
to not wait until an emergency
strikes to start planning. Don’t
first ask them if they have done
a will; this approach may reinforce any impression of greediness on your part, and it can
scare away those parents who
don’t want to think about their
own mortality. Focus instead
on the durable power of attorney and advance medical directives; ask your parents who
can make financial and medical decisions for them if they
cannot make the decisions for
themselves. You can give the
example of a temporary disability that may require someone to help pay the bills or
make medical decisions.
If your parents already
have a plan in place, then see
if they will let you know where
they keep their documents.
If you can, ask to review their
documents and get the name
of their attorney. The attorney
may not be able to talk with
you at that point in time, but
you will know where to turn in
case of an emergency. If your
parents do not have a plan in
place, then you should suggest
that they make an appoint-
ment with a certified elder law
attorney. Your parents may let
you schedule an appointment
for them, but you need to be
aware that the parents, not the
children, will be the clients of
the attorney.
You will also want to know
where your parents keep other
important documents such
as safe deposit box keys, birth
certificates, passports, deeds,
insurance policies, investment
and bank statements, tax returns, Social Security cards,
and medical insurance cards
and information. If your parents do not want to share this
information with you, then ask
them to prepare a list and let
you know where the list can
be found in case of an emergency. You should assess your
parents’ current financial
situation to see whether your
parents have sufficient income

Face Transplant Update
BY PAUL BOOKBINDER, M.I.D., C.R.
More akin to science fiction than science fact, several people have received face
transplants in the last couple
of years. Now relegated to only
the most horrific accidents,
like most medical miracles,
as the techniques are perfected, this type of operation
will eventually become much
more commonplace. Once that
happens, it’s only a matter of
time until the procedure will
become available as elective
surgery for those who are not
pleased with their existing faces, or maybe just want a new
look. After all, who wants to go
around their whole lives with
the same old face? Wouldn’t it
be nice to re-face for your 25th
high school reunion? And then
again for your 30th?
Fortunately, great strides
have also been made in face
transplants for your kitchen
(and other) cabinetry. As materials and techniques have
been perfected, refacing your
kitchen can now be done on an
elective, economical basis and
when it’s done right, it can be
indistinguishable from a new
kitchen, beautifying all those
unsightly spots that have embarrassed you for years.
In the not so distant
past, a few brave practitioners
risked their reputations using
early refacing techniques. You
could choose from a catalog
of about three different styles
and colors for refacing, and
most of those were brittle laminate doors that had no detail.
To make matters worse, the
material was adhered to the
face of the cabinets with contact cement, a terribly toxic,
highly flammable adhesive
that had a life expectancy of 10
to 15-years. Not very enticing!
So the scientists at Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing (3M) got to work and
created a new adhesive that
is non-toxic, non-flammable,
odorless, and gets stronger as
it ages! It doesn’t get any better
than that! Then someone (I’m
not sure exactly who) created a
material called Rigid-Thermofoil, also known as RTF. This
new wonder product is a vinyllike material which is fused
onto furniture grade composition board. Using computer
controlled heat and pressure
to create the finished product,
it is flexible, much more resilient than the old laminates of
yesteryear, and can be formed
into different shaped doors
enabling the manufacturers
to create hundreds of exciting styles. But they didn’t stop
there. New photographic techniques were developed to duplicate the beauty of real wood.
This year, they even came out
with an RTF product that looks
just like stainless steel, creating a very attractive, contemporary look for your cabinets.
In 1951, Raymond Lowey,
the famous industrial designer
(and one of my personal heroes) wrote a book entitled
Never Leave Well Enough
Alone. Apparently, the manufacturers who make wood
doors for refacing recently discovered this book because they
decided to introduce replacement doors in new shapes and
wood species. No longer are
you relegated to just oak, maple and cherry. Now you can
reface in eco-friendly bamboo,
walnut, mahogany and sapele
to name just a few. Then the
guys at 3M got together with
the manufacturers who crafted wood veneer and it was a
marriage made in heaven.
So, if some unforeseen
disaster has caused all your
cabinetry to deteriorate, this
is a great time to investigate
refacing. As the procedure became more popular, the cost
associated with the process
has lowered considerably, just
like people refacing will after it
too becomes more routine.
Modern science has taken
giant steps forward in refacing
people as well as kitchens. To
quote the Wicked Witch of the
West, as her face deteriorated,
“What a world, what a world!”
(Unfortunately her face, along
with the rest of her, melted
to the point that a transplant
would not be recommended.)
But she could have had a beautiful kitchen.
New Rochelle Review
and resources to meet their
needs. If your parents will not
discuss these issues with you,
then perhaps you might consider asking a trusted friend of
your parents to talk with them
to encourage a family dialogue.
To help overcome this
generational communication
gap, here are some conversation-starting questions that
adult children can ask their
parents. The list is not all-inclusive; feel free to use whatever questions you think your
parents will be most comfortable with.
1. Do you feel comfortable
about your financial situation? Would a financial
planner be helpful?
2. Do you have an estate
plan?
3. Who should handle your
finances if you become
ill?
4. In the event you become
seriously ill, what level
of care and intervention
would you like?
5. Do you have enough
health insurance?
6. Do you feel your physician is well-informed
about issues common to
older patients?
7. Can we make your home
more comfortable?
8. Are you feeling secure
about driving?
9. Can you share your
thoughts about your
funeral?
10. Can you compile a list of
all your important information?

While these are not pleasant topics to discuss, they are
better addressed ahead of time
instead of during a crisis situation. If plans need to be made
or if existing plans need to be
changed, then the time to accomplish these objectives is
prior to an emergency while
the parents still have the capacity to get their affairs in order. By taking care of this in advance, you will save your family
a lot of heartache and expense.

“As you know, I am a

Greenburgh Supervisor Paul
Feiner stressed. “I’ve attended
many events sponsored by the
Westchester Jewish Council,
have been to Israel 3 times,
wanted to be a Rabbi before
going into politics and oppose
the boycott of Israel. I feel that
Israel is being treated very unfairly by the media.

On Saturday evening, December 5th, the Westchester
Jewish Community will come
together for the Fourth Night of
Jewish Learning and Celebration sponsored jointly by the
Westchester Jewish Council
and the Westchester Board of
Rabbis. The event which will be
held at Beth El Synagogue Center in New Rochelle and attracts
over 400 people. It is a unique
night of community, connection
and learning. Over 30 Westchester Rabbis will teach classes
and interactive workshops on
an array of topics. The Night of
Jewish Learning is for all adults,
no matter your background,
practice, affiliation or age. Topics range from Jewish Thought,
text, philosophy, spirituality,
sports, culture, life and love.
“This is a true community
event,” the Westchester Jewish
Council notes. “ We are
able to bring together
a diverse group people
from all over Westchester. Not only do the Rabbi’s teachings represent
a cross section of areas
and denominations but
so do our participants.
The crowd represents
North and South Westchester, the affiliated
and non affiliated, young
and old.
Our Rabbis
have selected a unique
and fun selection of topics. Everyone is sure to
find a class they will enjoy. “
After 2 sessions of
workshops, the community will
join for a Celebration which includes a delicious Kosher Dairy
Dessert reception and the Music
of Rabbi Andrew Bossov.
