Thanksgiving is a refl ective time to be thankful for the good things in life. It is also a time for helping others and noth-ing is kinder or warmer than providing a delicious meal for those in need.

For 19 years the Jewish War Veter-ans Post 655 with the help of Giancarlo & Josephine Costa, former owners of La Viola, have hosted a free Thanksgiving Day meal for those who have no place to go and delivered holiday meals to people who are homebound.

Since La Viola closed in 2007, the vet-erans and the Costas moved the event to the North Shore Synagogue in Syosset where they partnered with Del-Mir Cater-ers.

This year on Thursday, November 24th they sent out over 275 meals to home-bound families via a team of volunteers and they served over 200 people in the


Democrat Delia DeRiggi-Whit-ton of Glen Cove can breathe easy. Although a handful absentee bal-lots have yet to be counted, she has a paper-thin but insurmount-able lead over Republican Robert Germino of Glen Cove in the race for the 18th District seat in the Nassau County Legis-lature.

It’s been three and a half weeks since Election Day and, be-lieve it or not, there are still 22 unopened absentee ballots.

They are being contested and the candidates won’t fi nd out if they are valid until a judge rules on the question next week.

Either the judge will examine the ab-sentee ballots more closely or realize that — since DeRiggi-Whitton is currently ahead by 31 votes — it’s mathematically impossible for Ger-mino, 31, to win.

Glowing from her unoffi cial but en-viable victory, the 43-year-old legislator-elect stated, “I’m very happy with the end result. It was defi nite-ly quite a rollercoast-er ride but this elec-tion is proof of just how important it is for everyone to vote. I’m very thankful to everyone who voted for me and all those who worked on my campaign.”

Despite DeRiggi-Whitton’s win, the Republicans still cling to a one-seat majority in the legislature.

That doesn’t faze DeRiggi-

Whitton. She says she is lookingforward to getting to work.

“I’m confi dent that our mes-sage is going to be very positiveand professional. We really hopeto come up with a number of good projects in the upcoming year,” she said. “I believe we are fully ca-pable of good governing.”

Amazingly the vote differential came down to less than one per-

cent between the twocandidates.

“This race is prob-ably one of the clos-est races in the his-tory of the Nassau County Legislature,” said Germino. “This district has been a democratic strong hold in the past. The reality is the district is split down the middle. We will see what happens next week when those 22 ballots go before a judge.”

The seat is cur-rently held by current Minority Leader of theNassau County Legis-lature Diane Yatauro(D-Glen Cove) whodecided not run for re-election. The 18th District seat has beenheld by a Democrat since 2000.

The 18th District includes Bayville, Brookville, Centre Island, Lattingtown, Locust Valley, Matine-

cock, Mill Neck, Old Brookville, part of Oyster Bay, Glen Cove,Glen Head, Greenvale, Hicksville,part of Jericho, Old Westbury andUpper Brookville.

Unless the judge fi nds any signs of voting irregularities or senses any fraud, the results will remain as they currently stand.


Nineteen year-old twins Gianni and Mariela Napolitano of East Norwich shared a womb. Today they share a band they named the Pine Hollows in homage to their hometown. The band recently re-leased its eponymous debut album after only a year together.

The Napolitanos both attend New York University as sopho-mores where Gianni (vocals/gui-tar/piano) is studying fi lm scoring and entertainment business while Mariela (vocals) is pursuing stu-dio art.

They graduated from Oyster Bay High School in 2010 where they were known for performing together in talent shows and ben-efi ts.

“We always relied on each other for back up,” said Mariela.

“Working together was convenient since we lived in the same house.”

The twins attended the Paul Green School of Rock in Manhat-tan where they learned to spread their musical wings. They reached the school’s highest level, the SOR All Stars, where they touredaround the country.

When Paul Green sold the school, the Napolitanos moved on with him to his next project called Studio House on Long Is-land, which is where they started playing original music with bass-ist fellow SOR alums Will Salwen and Ray Belli. They started out as trio with just the three guys until they convinced Mariela to join the group.

“I was egging Mariela on to come sing. She came to one gig and sang a song with us,” said Gi-anni. “By the next show she did the

Boy Scouts hike religiously throughout Oyster BayBy David J. [email protected]

While many of their neighbors were still suffering from a turkey hangover, over 600 Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts, ranging in age from six to 17, along with leaders and parents from the Theodore Roosevelt Council desended upon the hamlet of Oyster Bay on Fri-day morning, November 25th for their 15th annual Ten Command-ments Hike.

The event was organized by the Scouts’ All Faith Committee and is traditionally held the day after

Thanksgiving. Participants visited eight hous-

es of worship, learning about each congregation’s history and par-ticular faith. A religious leader at each stop spoke about one of the Ten Commandments and dis-played their ceremonial objects.

“A scout has a duty to God. We want our scouts to not only know their own religion but respect oth-er people’s religions as well,” said Jerry Katz, Troop 2830 Scoutmas-ter Emeritus and Vice Chairman of the All Faith Committee. “The biggest lesson they learn from this exercise is that everybody has

something in common. The Ten Commandments are common to all the faiths.”

The scouts were divided into three groups of approximately 175 each. They visited St. Dominic R.C. Church, Oyster Bay Jewish Center, North Shore Community Church, Mount Olive Baptist Church, Hood A.M.E. Baptist Church, North Shore Assembly of God, Christ Church and The First Presbyterian Church. Each group spent about 20 minutes at each stop and then hiked through the streets of the community to the next location.

Volunteers served almost 500 meals to local families in need on Thanksgiving.

The Incorporated Vil-lage of Bayville honored two Nassau County police offi cers for rescuing a man from a car accident during Hurricane Irene at the end of August. Bayville Mayor Doug Watson presented of-fi cers Darin M. Costello and Dan Bednartz with Cita-tions at a village meeting on Monday, November 28th.

A branch broke off a tree and made a direct hit to the windshield of the truck driving on Bayville Avenue knocking the driver uncon-scious and causing him to suffer a broken nose along

with several deep lacerations. With all the trees being

down in the area due to the storm, an ambulance cou-ldn’t get the victim to a hos-pital quick enough there-fore a call was put in to the two offi cers at the Nassau County Police Aviation Unit. They airlifted the victim tothe trauma center of Nassau University Medical Center from Stehli Beach in Bay-ville despite the weather.

“These two offi cers made a dramatic helicopter res-cue and probably saved the man’s life,” said Mayor Wat-son. “We are here tonight toapplaud their selfl ess brav-ery during extreme condi-tions.”

A special Christmas Ben-efi t Concert will be held Saturday, December 3rd at 4 PM at the Community United Methodist Church, located at 1310 Oyster Bay Road (Route 106, one block south of 25A) in East Nor-wich.

The concert will feature performances by the Long Island Zither Ensemble, the Flute Magic Ensemble, the

church choir as well as a Christmas song sing-a-long.

Admission is free, how-ever the church is accepting canned food donations and new unwrapped children’s toys, which will be donat-ed to: the Youth & Family Counseling Agency of Oys-ter Bay-East Norwich.

For more information, contact the church offi ce at(516) 922-0133.

The Oyster Bay-East Nor-wich Chamber of Commerce has a set amount of money earmarked for donating to programs that benefi t the community. At a recent meet-ing, the Chamber approved making a donation to Oyster Bay High School’s College Awareness Program for the 8th grade and 10th grade.

Local businessman and past President of the Cham-ber of Commerce, Alex Gal-lego, felt so strongly about the value of this program for the students of Oyster Bay-East Norwich that he personally matched the amount donated by the Chamber. Gallego en-courages others to match the donation as well and has tak-en it upon himself to use this donation as a springboard to launch a personal campaign to approach local residents and businesses to help out in any way they can.

As a son of immigrants, Gallego has fi rst hand ex-perience with the American dream; the promise that a better life can be achieved by coming to America. He and his parents are direct benefi -ciaries of that promise kept. Gallego is grateful for the opportunities afforded him in this country and wants to show his gratitude by giving back to the community that has been so good to him.

Going to college is one of the best ways for a person to get on track to realize the American dream for them-selves. OBHS Principal Dr. Dennis O’Hara has seen the value of taking students to visit colleges as early as the eighth grade. He has noticed that a lot of kids who wouldn’t even think of going to college, now want to go after seeing what college life has to of-fer. Students come back from these trips and rethink the courses they take with an eye

to meeting the standards of the colleges they have seen.

Where in the past a stu-dent might settle for a study hall, Oyster Bay High School students are asking their guid-ance counselors to fi nd them an elective or a more chal-lenging course to meet their tangible attainable goals. Students who have not gone on these trips often fi nd out in their junior year what they could have or should have done to be prepared to get accepted to a better college. OBHS students are equipped with the “hindsight” ahead of time to make the decisions and adjustments that will shape the rest of their lives before it is too late.

In these tough fi scal times with mandatory tax caps im-posed on schools by Albany, Districts need to cut rather than add programs like this. As such, the OBHS College Awareness Program is not included in the budget. The trips are completely paid for in house without any cost to the taxpayer.

Many innovative ideas have been fl oated to raise funds to support the trips. Dr. O’Hara set up a dunk tank in the gym lobby during spirit

week. Students and faculty bought tickets to throw soft-balls at a target to soak their favorite teachers. Dr. O’Hara even got on the hot seat him-self. Close to $600 was raised in one afternoon.

Students going on the trips are selling raffl e tickets at $10 each to help defray costs. The winner will receive six nights in an Orlando Condominium (Disney World) and airfare for two. Students can sell as many as they’d like. The more they sell, the less they have to pay out of pocket. If they sell more than is required to pay for their own trip, we apply the extra to other students in need. Assistant Principal Taryn Johnson is donating her time share as the prize. In the past Dr. O’Hara’s parents donated the use of their condominium as the grand prize. Raffl e tickets can be purchased in the main offi ce of Oyster Bay High School. The drawing will be held on January 10, 2012. You do not have to be present to win.

Also, students will be sell-ing cookie dough and a “Fit-ness for Fundraising” activity, which is a push up competi-tion is in the works.

In the spring a concert

is being planned featuring alumni Gianni and Mariela Napolitano with their band, The Pine Hollows, who are out playing concerts in sup-port of their debut album.

Oyster Bay High School students understand and ap-preciate the value of the Col-lege Awareness Program. At a recent Board of Education meeting, OBHS junior Ales-sandra Puccio stood up and delivered an eloquent ac-count on behalf of her class-mates.

Puccio, a junior at OBHS, is a member of the class of 2013 and she was fortunate enough to not only have em-barked on the maiden voyage of the College Awareness Pro-gram in March of 2009 as an 8th grader, but also to have gone on the 10th grade col-lege extravaganza with her colleagues and members of the faculty last January.

“During each bus ride from one college to the next, I would whip out my handy notepad and jot down any fun facts about the school I had just visited, such as what I liked and did not like about the school, along with a rat-ing of 1-5 (5 being the high-est) on how I would grade the school to fi t my needs. Going back home to my parents af-ter fi ve exhausting but excit-ing days spent in a coach bus, I was eager to share my notes and opinions on each of the nine schools I visited with my family,” Puccio explained.

“I can’t express my grati-tude enough to Dr. O’Hara, Ms. Johnson and Mr. Tweed for implementing such a radi-cal, fantastic program in Oys-ter Bay High School,” said Puccio. “My fellow members of the class of 2013 and I’m ready for the stresses to come next fall and we owe a great deal of that preparation to the College Awareness Program.”

OPINIONEDITORIAL

Compromise, transparency needed

R aces for the Nassau County Legislature were as tight as ever this year, and in the

end, control of the Legislature boiled down to the two most hotly contested matches –– in the 14th and 18th districts.

At press time, after all absentee bal-lots were counted, it appeared likely that Republican Joseph Belesi would keep his seat in the race against Dem-ocratic challenger Eva Pearson in the 14th District by the slimmest of margins. But in the race in the 18th Dis-trict, it appeared that Democrat Delia DeRig-gi-Whitton had taken a lead against Republi-can Robert Germino Jr. If those two races hold, Republicans would maintain control of the Legislature, 10 seats to nine.

Two years ago, Re-publicans ran on a tax-revolt platform and trounced Democrats, taking back control of the Legislature after Democrats had reigned for a decade. For the past two years, Republicans have had 11 seats to Democrats’ eight. That has given the GOP the ability to pretty much do as it pleases, with no need for compromise. That hasn’t been good for the people of Nassau County.

We expect the Legislature to act as an independent body, checking the county executive’s powers. Instead, the Legislature has fast-tracked and rubber-stamped any and all of Repub-lican County Executive Ed Mangano’s proposals, most often with insuffi cient notice of public meetings and hear-

ings. The Legislature has done so even as hundreds of county residents and workers have crowded legislative ses-sions demanding greater transparency.

Case in point –– redistricting. Ev-ery 10 years, the county must redraw the lines of its 19 legislative districts, in accordance with a process outlined in the county charter. First, after U.S. Census fi gures are released, the Leg-islature must review the numbers

and look for dramatic changes in individual districts’ populations. Districts whose popu-lations have swelled above or dropped be-low the target popula-tion of 70,000 must be redrawn. Thereafter, the charter calls for a series of public hear-ings to allow the pub-lic to comment on the reworked map.

Last spring, howev-er, Mangano and the Legislature attempted to skirt the process, approving a map with-out the hearings. That map surely would have given Republi-

cans control of the Legislature for the next decade. Democrats challenged it in court over the summer, and after a protracted legal battle, the courts struck down the Republicans’ plan to enact the new map in the 2011 elec-tion.

The court battle was costly –– and unnecessary. Clearly, Republicans had attempted to grab power without fol-lowing the statutes mandated by the charter. That was wrong.

If we look back over the past two years, we see example after example of Republicans pushing an aggressive

agenda, without the public’s involve-ment. Over the summer, Mangano and the Legislature proposed a $450 mil-lion plan to redo Nassau Veterans Me-morial Coliseum with public money. They put the plan up for a vote in a special election –– on a Monday in Au-gust. Architectural renderings of the new Coliseum were made available to the public only days before the vote. We endorsed the plan because we be-lieve there will be no development at Nassau’s Hub without a revamped Col-iseum. But the county clearly bungled the vote, which cost $2 million when it could have been held for free in No-vember. In the end, voters shot the plan down.

Most recently, residents attended legislative sessions to express anger that Mangano and the Legislature have held details of a plan to priva-tize Long Island Bus close to the vest. Questions about whether fares would go up and routes would be reduced under a private company have lin-gered for months. The public was told that a hearing would be held in De-cember, only weeks before Long Island Bus’s contract with the county is set to expire on Dec. 31. Now we hear that the company that is set to take over the bus system –– Veolia –– is also bid-ding for the county’s sewer system.

We attribute Republicans’ lack of information and compromise to arro-gance. The 2009 election apparently gave them the mistaken impression that they had a mandate to do whatev-er they pleased. We believe this year’s election showed otherwise. If not for a handful of Republican votes in the 14th District, Democrats would now control the Legislature.

We hope to see better from the Re-publican majority over the next two years. Otherwise, they may fi nd them-selves out of power once again.

THINGS TO DO - PLACES TO GO

If we look back over the past two years, we see example after example of Republicans pushing an aggressive agenda, without the public’s involvement.

Syosset restaurant robbed

Nassau County Police’s Second Squad is investigating a robbery that occurred in Syosset on Sunday, No-vember 20th at 8:20 AM.

According to detectives, a 65 year-old male employee of the Testarossa Restaurant, located at 499 Jericho Turnpike, opened the business and was confronted by two unknown male sub-jects. One subject displayed a handgun while the second subject had a knife and crowbar. The subjects demanded the victim open the safe however the victim did not have the code. The vic-tim’s cell phone was then removed from his pocket and he was tied up.

A 48 year-old male employee then arrived at the restaurant where the subjects again demanded the safe to be opened. When the victim stated he could not access the safe he was tied up and his cell phone removed.

A short time later a 56 year-old fe-male employee arrived for work and was confronted by the subjects. When she told the subjects she could not open the safe she was also bound.

The subjects attempted to gain en-try to the safe but were unsuccessful. The 48 year-old male victim was able to free himself and ran to an adjoining business and called police.

The subjects were seen entering a dark brown or beige vehicle fl eeing the scene. No injuries were reported and there is no further description of the subjects. Proceeds were the three cell phones.

Detectives request anyone with in-formation regarding this crime to con-tact Nassau County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-244-TIPS. All callers will remain anonymous.

dining room. The Jewish War Veter-

ans also bussed in 120 vets from eight different facili-ties throughout Long Island.

“We got calls this year that we never had before,” said Larry Sklar of the Jew-ish War Veterans Post 655. “We had a lot of new people this year.” They cover the entire Town of Oyster Bay as well as the senior hous-ing programs in Glen Cove and Hempstead. The veter-ans raised over $7,000 to pay for the meal.

Del-Mir Caterers co-own-ers Robert Kanowitz and Keith Senzer work tirelessly with their staff to put the meal together. “Unfortu-nately more people are in need and the phone calls have been coming in. We tell them to come and we’ll be glad to accommodate them,” said Kanowitz.

The planning begins months in advance and Chef Dan Carey and his crew cook 75 turkeys (18-22 lbs.each) for the event not to mention, turkey soup, veg-etables, stuffi ng, sweet po-tatoes and more. Tables also feature cranberry sauce, fresh fruit plus dessert and rolls, which were donated by Glen Wolther from the North Shore Synagogue.

Del-Mir employees vol-unteer their time and the kitchen works through the night before Thanksgiving cooking and prepping the food. Whatever food is left-

over goes to soup kitchens in the area.

Giancarlo Costa of Hicks-ville is known for his delec-table Italian food from one of the North Shore’s most beloved restaurants, La Vi-ola. He started the Thanks-giving tradition with Sklar 19 years ago.

“There’s a lot of lone-ly people who need help and we are happy to pro-

vide dinner for them,” said Giancarlo who was assisted by his grandchildren Dylan Romano, 8 and Sabrina Soto, 14, both of Hicksville. “Every year this event gets bigger and bigger.”

By Giancarlo’s side were two of his old employees brothers Paul and Erik Zara-tin of Syosset who are now a teacher and lawyer, re-spectively. Despite the fact

they are no longer two kids working a side job while going to school, every year they reunite with their old boss to help him out.

“Between the two of us we’ve probably worked ev-ery job in the restaurant from bus boy to delivery boy,” said Erik. “We do this every year and we love it. This is part of our Thanks-giving now.”

“La Viola was a great place to work and it was the best food in Syosset. I loved working with Giancarlo. If he still had the restaurant I’d probably still be working there,” said Paul. “I do this because like helping people. I’m fortunate enough to spend the rest of the day with my family.”

Thrilled to see his boys, now men, back together

again, Giancarlo said, “I never had anybody better than both of them. I can’t do this without them.”

By 2:30 PM the roomwas all cleaned up. Sk-lar, Giancarlo, the Zaratinbrothers and Kanowitz went home to enjoy their owndinners with their families knowing they made the hol-iday a bit brighter for hun-dreds of people.

whole set with us and she has been in the band since.”

After getting frustrated for not getting enough re-cording time, the group left Studio House and decided to record an album of origi-nal material. “Paul Green taught us a lot. He pushed us to do new things. Paul always makes sure that you are doing your best,” said Gianni. “He pushed us to write original songs. Once I started, it was hard to stop. Before I knew it we had a full album of material.”

The band, originally called the Dead Flowers af-ter a Rolling Stones song, recorded the album at Ret-romedia Sound Studios in Red Bank, NJ every other weekend throughout their freshman year. John Noll produced the album with the band in an old school manner using two-inch tape on a 16-track console.

Their debut features 11 tracks that vary in style from the straight-ahead rocker, “You Got Me Running” to the country-tinged “250 Grams” to the Beatlesque “Morning Sunrise.” The album shows off the band’s versatility.

Gianni claimed the goal was to mix it up. “Some of my favorite albums are Led Zeppelin’s Physical Graffi tti,

the Beatles’ Revolver and the Rolling Stones’ Beggars Ban-quet and the common thread between them is that they all feature different styles,” he said. “The appealing thing for me as a recording artist is to make it interesting for the listener. I like to add a little bit of everything.”

The Pine Hollows have a variety of infl uences that span from the Beatles & the Stones to Buddy Holly to Tom Waits, Radiohead and Arcade Fire. “Our different preferences as individuals

truly shapes the band,” said Gianni.

Their album, put out on 11-11-11, was released on the NYU label, Gallatone Records and was personally funded.

All the material on the album is written by Gianni, who also does the manag-ing and booking for the band. Things have already signifi cantly progressed on the follow-up as the band has begun to fully gel.

“We decided to work out new material dur-ing our live shows,” said

Gianni. “The new album is a bit harder edged like Da-vid Bowie’s Aladdin Sane. We are looking to release it in the summer or fall next year.”

The band’s live shows are packed with energy fi lling venues like Sullivan Hall and Arlene’s Grocery in NYC. “This past year we learned more about each other as musicians and we tend to play off that ener-gy,” said Gianni.

The question is…do they fi ght as most musical sib-

lings are known to do? Mari-ela stated, “Sometimes in rehearsals if I’m not giving it my all, Gianni will get an-noyed. But it’s out of love and knowing that I can do better.”

“I think we are beyond bickering or fi ghting. We are more on the same wave length most of the time,” said Gianni.

Although they are living artisticly fi lled lives in Man-hattan, the Napolitanos still enjoy the comforts of Oys-ter Bay-East Norwich. “It’s beautiful here and I think

being away from it makes us appreciate it even more,”said Mariela. Gianni added, “It will always be a specialplace for us. It’s chapter one in our musical story.”

For more information on the band or purchase their music, visit: www.thepine-hollows.com. Their album isalso available on iTunes and their videos are available on YouTube. An animated vid-eo for their song, “Blue Like Me” will debut on YouTubelater this month.

Each year the hike is held in a different location.“We’ve moved all around Long Island from Bellmore to East Meadow to Merrick to Long Beach to Westbury to West Hempstead. We like to spread it around,” said Katz. “This is our second time in Oyster Bay. We love it here because Oyster Bayhas such rich history. ”

Drawn from an impor-tant private Long Island collection, “The Paintings of Louis Comfort Tiffany: Works from a Long Island Collection” is a major ex-hibition that showcases approximately 125 oils on canvas and works on paper by Louis Comfort Tiffany, an American artist most closely associated with the Art Nou-veau and Aesthetic move-ments. This exhibition, the fi rst focusing on Tiffany’s paintings to be seen in the New York metropolitan area since 1979, opens at Nassau County Museum of Art on December 10th and remains on view through March 18, 2012. Centered on Tiffany’s paintings, many of which he created for himself to memorialize his travels and surroundings, “The Paint-ings of Louis Comfort Tif-fany” offers an uncommon glimpse into the artist’s per-

sonal world. The exhibition also includes examples of Tiffany’s decorative arts, es-pecially stained glass lamps and windows.

Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848-1933) created light-fi lled works suffused with Orientalism and employing sensuous Art Nouveau lines. Tiffany’s paintings and decorative arts contrasted sharply with the era’s pre-vailing dark Victorian décor and had a powerful infl u-ence on the evolving aes-thetics of the wealthy and famous of the Gilded Age.

The approximately 125 paintings in the exhibition include many subjects in-spired by his travels to the Middle East, among them, “Camel Watering Hole,” “Luxor,” “Egypt,” “Travelers Near Cairo” and “Temple of Ramses,” “Abu Simbel” as well as subjects closer to home such as “Pushing Off the Boat at Sea Bright, New

Jersey” and “Cows in Pond” or his much-loved Long Is-land home as seen in “Foun-tain at Laurelton Hall” and “View of Laurelton Hall.”

The museum will be of-fering public lectures and discussions in conjunction with this exhibition of Tif-fany’s paintings. For details, visit the museum’s website: www.nassaumuseum.org.

Nassau County Museum of Art is located at One Museum Drive (just off Northern Boulevard, Route 25A, two traffi c lights west of Glen Cove Road) in Ro-slyn Harbor. Hours are 11 am to 4:45 pm. Tuesday through Sunday. Docent-led tours of the exhibition are offered at 2 pm each day; meet in the lobby, no reservations needed.

ALEXANDER R. BARCLAY

Alexander R. Barclay, “Sandy,” of Locust Valley died on November 17th at the age 65.

Born in Glen Cove on November 9th, 1946, he was the son of Alexander & Nancie Barclay. Husband of Marilyn Barclay, he was the father of Chris (Suzy) Alec

(Helen) and Liz; grandfa-ther of William, Noah and Ben, brother of Donald (B.G.) and is survived by many nieces and nephews.

From an early age, Sandy loved the Grenville Baker Boys & Girls Club where he was an active member in-cluding being a Pratt camp camper. He remained in-volved with the Boys & Girls Club throughout his life as a parent and volun-

teer. Sandy adored the Lo-cust Valley community. He continuously performed volunteer activities, most notably serving as head of the Community Scholarship Committee. In addition, he was an active member of the Reformed Church of Lo-cust Valley where he served as deacon, elder and vice president.

Sandy rose from the mailroom of Harris Upham

to become a Municipal Bond Trader. Later in his career he led Smith Barney’s North East Municipal Bond busi-ness. Sandy was an arbitra-tor for the New York Stock Exchange Board of Ethics and earned numerous dis-tinctions during his career in the Securities Industry.

A Memorial Service will be held at the Reformed Church of Locust Valley on Saturday, December 3rd at

3 PM, under the direction of Dodge-Thomas Funeral Home in Glen Cove.

In lieu of fl owers, contri-butions can be sent to: the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation via www.jdrf.org or call 1-800-533-CURE.

ROSE B. ROTHMEIER

Rose B. Rothmeier of

East Norwich died on No-vember 20th.

Wife of the late Louis, she was the mother of John L., Rosemarie C., Brian J. and Thomas E., grandmother of fi ve and great-grandmother of one.

A Funeral Mass was held at St. Dominic’s Chapel fol-lowed by an interment at St. Charles Cemetery, under the direction of Beney Fu-neral Home in Syosset.


Chris Mammone of Mass-apequa, 28, captured his fourth “Rob’s Run” title in a row fi nishing in 15 minutes and 46 seconds. The 5 Ki-lometer cross-country run, which is part in the woods and part on a fi eld, was held on Sunday, November 27th in Stillwell Woods Park in Woodbury presented by the Greater Long Island Run-ning Club.

A member of the Bell-more Striders running club, Mammone had the lead from the beginning of the race. “After the fi rst half mile, I was in front and didn’t see anybody else from there. But there’s al-ways someone who is look-ing to come catch me so I didn’t ease up,” he said.

Although this wasn’t his fastest time, Mammone ad-mits he’s not in the same shape as last year. “I had some trouble over the sum-mer with a bone spur in my Achilles,” he said. “I can’t expect too much because of that condition.”

The Bellmore Striders

were riding high as team-mate Lindsey Block, 25, of Huntington, who completed the race in 19 minutes and 26 seconds, took fi rst place overall for the females.

“I had a lot of fun. It was challenging due to the nar-rowness of the course but it was pretty fl at not too many rocks,” said Block, who placed third in the Long Is-land Marathon for females this year. Her time at “Rob’s Run” was a personal record for Block, who routinely runs every day stacking up 75 miles a week.

Coming in second place overall was Sean Pollard, 26, of Port Jefferson, who was part of the Sayville Running Company, clock-ing in at 16 minutes and 13 seconds. “I love this race because you don’t get this kind of team experience af-ter college,” he said. “This event is real cross-country so it was pretty diffi cult but it keeps you honest. I fi nd it enjoyable. Running cross-country is my favorite.”

Fellow Sayville Running Company teammate Bren-dan Barrett, 28, of Sayville took third place fi nishing in

16 minutes and 30 seconds. When asked how he

found the course, Barrett said, “It was fair but tough. You kind of had to pick your parts as to when to pass be-cause it was narrow. Sean was out ahead of me for a lot of the race. I closed in on him a bit at the end but I was never within striking distance. But that makes sense because he’s our fast-est runner on the team.”

The run is held in honor

of the late GLIRC mem-ber Rob Lauterborn of East Meadow, who died of an Epileptic seizure at age 30.

“Rob was one of the bet-ter runners on Long Island. He won lots of races and he kept improving. He had a long running career ahead of him but unfortunately it just didn’t happen,” said Mike Polansky, GLIRC Presi-dent.

Rob’s brothers Tom & Ed Lauterborn were on hand to

cheer on the competitors in their brother’s honor.

“Running turned Rob’s life around. He had some addictions and I brought him into the running club and it changed his life,” said Ed. “The club accepted him right away. He went from being a punk rocker to an elite runner.”

Young runners from

the North Shore fi nished strong. Ryan Healy of Syos-set, 19, came in 4th place overall, Josh Halpern of Woodbury, 19, was 12th overall, Thomas Brouillard of Woodbury, 23, took 23rdplace and Nick Mavros of Oyster Bay, 17, came in 21st place overall.

ART (That Matters) re-cently announce a new group exhibition called “The White on White Show” at their studio, located at 55 West Main Street in Oyster Bay. An artist’s reception will be held on Friday, De-cember 16th from 7-9 PM.

This group exhibition is a member’s show consisting of the collective works of Janet Smith, Francis Traina, Roseann Nicotra, Minoo Moadel, Crista Mannino, Kristina Catalano, Beth Costello, Christine Benja-min, Christine McGough,

and Jason Trentacoste. This simple yet intrigu-

ing premise of “White on White” limits these artists to using only shades of white as their inspiration. In this rule of white…lies the chal-lenge.

Their restrictions on us-ing bold contrasting colors opens them up to focusing more on texture and com-position. Attempting to di-rect the viewer’s eyes with subtle hints of shadows and light…lots and lots of light.

The eclectic fl avor of these artists will surely in-

spire a diverse spectrum ofcreation. Anything from canvas to wood to paperto seashells. All curiously fi nding a way to accentuate some form from ambiguity.These paths they make will give us a unique and dis-tinct look into each artist’sthought process. A connec-tion between their previousstrengths that pidgeon hold them and their ability to just simply create.

The Village Church of Bayville, located at 9 Mountain Avenue in Bayville, held its an-nual “Brunch with Santa, Bazaar and Bou-tique” on Saturday, November 26th. The daylong fundraiser featured holiday shop-ping with a meal (breakfast or lunch) and a visit from ol’ Saint Nick.

The day format was created by chair Ilse Leibold who handpicks the vendors and coordinates the volunteers that make the event happen.

“This originally started with handmade items then evolved into a grandma’s attic. Now our event has come full circle with a little bit of everything,” said Ilse. “We draw people from all over Long Island.”

Children got a chance to read Santa their Christmas wish list and snap a pic-ture. Meanwhile homemade baked goods were for sale along with pet treats and toys. Guests also purchased tickets for the candy cane auction.

“This is a great day of fellowship with members of our church and our neighbors. Christmastime gets busy and it’s hard get-ting everyone together which is why we use

this date,” said Pastor Bob Leibold. “Every-one chips in. It’s a big community effort.”

Gerard McCaffery (center), MercyFirst President/CEO, thanked Patrick Reis (left) and Jonathan Russo (right) for creating a brand new Mercy-First video featuring some of the youth and staff of the school.

You could watch a lot of soccer and it will be a long time before you see a game that was as exciting as the recent playoff between St. Dominic’s 5th grade girls and St. Aidan’s. The Bayhawks were down early and had to come back from a defi cit. Katherine Williams saved several goals while playing defense and Erica Duke tied it up with 4 minutes left as regula-tion play ended in a 1-1 tie. Then the fun really began.

The Bayhawks brought out their mascot, cried, prayed, and a real live hawk fl ew over the soccer fi eld. It would take all of that for the girls to win a double overtime; quadruple shootout game. The shootout became a sud-den death match as Nicole Coccia put her kick in and Molly Milano came up with a big save for a 2-1 St Dominic win. An unbelievable fi n-ish to a well-played soccer game

The Bayhawks then moved on to the CYO championship at Merrick Park against Our Lady of Lourdes. St. Dom’s defense did not let up any goals. Catherine McAuliffe, Grace Wiesienfeld and Nicole Coccia scored and St. Dom’s won the CYO Championship 4-0.

Coaches Tom Regan and Frank Montele-one are extremely proud at what these girls have accomplished going 12-0 during the sea-son and bringing home a championship made this year a dream come true.

RIGHT FIELDBy Jeff Davis

The Penn State Horror – Part Two

If there is a crime more horrible than child rape it is hard to contemplate. When adults so abuse their power and trust and commit these unthinkable acts, public out-rage legitimately follows. Having these un-mentionable acts occur at a respected uni-versity, investigated and then ignored makes not only the perpetrator a criminal, but all involved in not reporting or protecting the victims criminally liable. As for the univer-sity’s athletic system, the University Police and the university’s administration, they all did something terribly wrong. Penn State has begun the internal investigation that surely will lead to more fi rings, rule changes and hopefully “clean house.”

To begin the house cleaning former FBI Director Louis Freeh has been appointed to investigate the entire scandal. This unusual appointment was made at the behest of the Trustees of Penn State. Freeh has immedi-ately announced that he will be starting his investigation going back to 1975. This sig-nifi cantly broadens the investigation since the present charges stem from incidents that allegedly commenced in 1998. The univer-sity appears to understand that the only way to ever clean the name of Penn State will be through a full and honest investigation. This investigation must fi rst identify any and ev-ery child who was a victim.

The apparent cover-up must be investi-gated to see how far up the ladder it went. It must fi gure not only why the university administrators failed in their jobs but what happened to the University Police, the local State College Police, the State Police and even the State Attorney General’s Offi ce. What makes the latter so compelling is that the Attorney General who was head of the ongoing previous investigation was Attorney General Tom Corbett, who is now Governor of Pennsylvania and a member of the pres-ent Board of Trustees for Penn State. Louis Freeh has a big job in front of himself.

If this could happen at Penn State, could it be happening at other universities? This question is beginning to be asked by every college and university in our country. If this scandal is to have an ending, it will oc-cur when the guilty are charged, and every school of higher learning has in place a sys-tem that will encourage reporting of child abuse and prevent it from being ignored. This isn’t a simple white collar crime, this is “evil” that preys on those who cannot de-fend themselves. If it can’t be stopped, it can be diminished.

In speaking to Al Staab from the Oak Neck Athletic Council, he pointed out that all coaches in the Nassau-Suffolk Football League must be cleared of previous crimes in order to coach in the league. He said that he and others are considering making crimi-nal screening mandatory for all coaches for any sport. Oak Neck already has “Coach’s Clinics” that go over many items involving the sport, working with children and with parents. Adding a Child Abuse Recognition and Reporting Seminar may just be in the future.
