Moroney SEND ALL CORRESPONDANCE TO: By Glenn Olsen February 2013 President’s Message As this goes to printing, over half of the winter is behind us and the Ground Hog is predicting an early spring. Serves me right for buying a snow blower this fall. First, I would like to thank our wonderful speakers for January who stepped up after the Town of North Hempstead Highway Department again decided they would not attend. First, a long time supporter of the organization, Bruce Chester of the Chester Agency located at 497 Westbury Avenue was informative with regards to home owners insurance and storm damage. Then, Carle Place Water District Chairman Timothy Stellato assisted by Commissioners Larry Zaino and Peter Meade explained the various components of the Carle Place Bond Issue vote that was being held later in the month at the Town of North Hempstead meeting. Before I get to the February meeting topics, I would like to ask all to check out the membership listing in the publication. Thanks to a suggestion from a member, we have added the last month that families are members as a reminder for renewal. We have room to grow on that listing and hope you will take the time to put $15.00 in an envelope and mail it to PO Box 131, Carle Place, NY 11514. Better yet, attend our meeting on February 27th and have an informative evening to boot! Now for that February meeting. A few years back, a few families from Bruce Terrace came to a meeting and showed photos of the flooding on their block that did yearly damage to their homes. Thanks to the efforts of Peter McDonnell, Peggy and Jim Wilde, the CPCA set up meetings between the Bruce Terrace families and the Village of Mineola, Town and County on the flooding concerns. We have invited State Senator Jack Martins, Mineola Village Mayor Scott Strauss, Town Councilwomen Viviana Russell and County Legislative Deputy Presiding Officer Richard Nicholello to provide status on the various portions of the project that are now underway. It’s not over yet! We also have invited the present owners of the former Albraco Metal who will be presenting a proposed development of the site. Gloria, please attend!!!! Lastly, enjoy a wonderful evening at the High School’s production of the King and I with the Educational Foundations Premier performance on March 7th and additional productions on Mach 8th and 9th. Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera!

Very Reasonable Rates Mr. G (516) 587-2036 FROG HORN FEB 2013 Correspondence to the CPCA SENT IN VIA AN ANONOMOUS CP RESIDENT: th I recently attended and watched a 6 grade girls’ basketball game at a local school gymnasium: It never ceases to amaze, disappoint, disturb, depress and sicken when grown men-- and sometimes women, -- scream, criticize, berate, belittle and scold players, coaches and referees during the course of a sporting event, in this case Hoops. Though this behavior represents nothing novel or unusual, it nonetheless, manifests a most unflattering and flawed part of our human selves. There’s no denying the intrinsic, innate competitive nature of sports, participating players and observing fans constitute a large part of our sports culture and human nature. Intense competition and desire to win and be the best should be staples of our collective sports psyche. Wanting one’s child to perform at their optimum level, along with the coaches and referees, is perfectly understandable, desirable and preferable. What’s not worthy of acceptance, praise or emulation: the constant vociferous berating and critiquing of sons, daughters, coaches and referees. Many of us have exhibited the kind of less-than-ideal behavior at a child’s sporting event in our lives. Few of us are perfect. Sports get us involved and excited and provide great pleasure, satisfaction and reward. There’s nothing more uplifting! Cheering passionately and loudly for your team, a player, or your own child should be encouraged and embraced. What needs to cease completely are the angry, critical outbursts and directives shouted out during the game, most especially, towards the children or teenagers playing the game. Grown men and women become so agitated and involved I’m surprised we don’t witness heart attacks on a frequent basis. I mean some become near apoplectic! Henceforth, why don’t we all make an honest, concerted effort to stem the negativity, cease and desist the anger-laden hollering, and focus on cheering energetically and enthusiastically. Praise the effort and result but attempt in earnest to shelve the negative shouting. Rest assured our sports-playing children-most importantly—and coaches and referees would respect and appreciate it and maybe even derive more fun and fulfillment from their athletic endeavors. I don’t pretend to say it’s easy but any improvement in our words and actions will advance the cause. Baby steps are ok! Sincerely, a parent striving to change for the best.

Heslin The March 1993 edition of the Frog Horn printed the following article as part of the President’s Message by John Hogan: “The past month has been eventful in Carle Place. On February 25, 1993, a groundbreaking ceremony for the Carle Place Senior Citizen/Community Center was held at Charles Fuschillo Park. In attendance were Supervisor Ben Zwirn; Councilman Anthony D’Urso; Commissioner Jerry Olsen; Ray Parish, the President of the Carle Place Senior Citizens; Mrs. Charles Fuschillo; Chuck Fuschillo and several other family members. There was an excellent turnout of senior citizens and a number of other community residents. Dave Mammina, Ray Parish, Peter Meade and I were pleased to represent the Carle Place Civic Association and participate in the ceremony. The senior/community center is the culmination of several years of interaction between the senior citizens, the Carle Place community and the town of North Hempstead. We salute the Carle Place senior citizens for their efforts.” Upon its opening, the community center became home to the Carle Place Senior Citizens. We thank all those who had the foresight to build a facility that is used daily in our community especially by the seniors. The Seniors are still going strong as we welcome new members, John and Maryann Passarella, Maria Mauro, and Arlene Morello. Condolences are extended to the family of Ralph Klepsch on his passing. Ralph will be missed by all his friends in the Senior club, particularly the card players. Stay Well! “The plans for the new community center are quite attractive, and we told the Supervisor that we hoped to be invited very shortly to the grand opening of this facility.

FASCILLA, DDS Bridging the Gap If you’ve ever lost a tooth and have been reluctant to undergo further dental treatment to replace it, you may be interested in an alternative to an implant, a removable partial denture or extensive bridgework. A Maryland bridge or a hugger bridge can be a simple, inexpensive way for you to replace a missing tooth with less time spent in the dental chair and very little drilling! The Maryland Bridge is a single, replacement tooth constructed from extra- strong chrome-cobalt metal and covered with natural looking porcelain. Thin metal wings are bonded to the tongue-side of the healthy teeth on either side of the space (see the diagram). The hugger bridge is designed similarly to the Maryland bridge but is made of acrylic. It has no metal framework. Attaching these types of bridges to your natural teeth in this manner means there is little or no alteration to the teeth onto which these bridges are bonded. The supporting teeth are not cut or capped as with a conventional bridge. These bridges are permanently bonded so there is no need for removal like a partial denture. Of course, a Maryland bridge or hugger bridge isn’t the answer to every missing tooth. The surrounding teeth used for support must be healthy and strong and the gap can not be too wide. If you are a good candidate, these types of bridges are a comfortable, economical alternative.

It is the talk of the diving industry. One of the main characters in the book is modeled after real-life diver Layle Stanton. Paul also coaches our middle-schoolboys’ and girls’ tennis teams, along with instructing and certifying scuba divers on Long Island. Paul spends his time between Titus Ave. and Cozumel. No wonder he always sports a tan. It is very sunny on Titus Ave. While watching late-night cablevision I saw David Mammina appearing before the Smithtown Board of Zoning and he looked marvelous! Wow, what a good-looking architect! With a commanding voice and diction and professionalism, he gave a presentation that was very informative and fun to watch. David lives on Titus as well. He does not maintain a year-long tan but he does maintain the property we all enjoy on the corner of Rushmore and Westbury Avenues as his professional office. This former home of our American Legion is a Carle Place landmark and is central to our history. David and Trudy Mammina are true guardians of those traditions. Speaking of Westbury Ave., apparently the road sign ROBERT S. GRECO, ESQ. Attorney At Law 300 Garden City Plaza—Suite 326 Garden City, NY 11530 747-9006 which states "No Through Trucking" means "No Through Trucks Smaller Than The Size of a Building or The Length of a Carle Place Block." I have never seen (since 1953) such gigantic vehicles. Tractor trailers, cement trucks, whole pizza factories on wheels, must, must, must use Westbury Ave. in order to survive! Carle Place has become one square mile of a parking lot for Jurassic Park trucking. Instead of "Dominos" or "Cardinalis" or "Realto" our restaurants should use neon signs that say "Truck Stop" or "Eats." At 6:00 P.M. on Westbury Ave., we become “the L.I.E. of the Hurricane!" Hope they don't turn down Titus Ave. I met Eddie Miller in the deli recently and we reminisced about the early days of Carle Place H.S. I have vivid memories of noticing the trophy cases during our first days in the new high school, while it was still being built. The school had just opened and we didn't even have a senior class. The trophy cases were all empty except for a picture of Coach Coady's 9th grade basketball team on the steps of Rushmore since Rushmore gym was the only gym we had. There was Tommy Seeger with a basketball in the center of the team and Eddie was the star athlete of that grade. They must have won some 9th grade event and that trophy was the sole shining metal located within those cavernous cases. Now they send me back my championship trophies because they were only County Championships and there's no room in our cases except for State titles. "Carle Place?!” our opponents used to say.“Where's that?" "Frogs? Your mascot is a Frog?" Then Eddie would stuff the ball down their throats! We mourn the passing of Ralph Klepsch who passed away on January 11, 2013. He was the beloved husband of the late Joan. His children, Ellen Christel and Nancy Klepsch, as well as his cherished grandchildren, Joshua, Thomas, Adam and Joni, have contributed to our schools and community in every positive way . Ralph and Joan were community leaders and they supported their community, their schools, and their church with the love and example that touched our lives and our hearts. Ralph and Joan will be sorely missed but their legacy will live forever, in the eye of the hurricane.

Guest speakers were Mr. Tim Stellato from the Carle Place Water Company and Mr. Bruce Chester from Chester Insurance at 154 Westbury Ave. He recommends a minimum of $500K – $1,000,000 coverage for all house contents and the kind that does not depreciate item’s values. It’s true, that flooding from rain is never covered. Many claims for trees falling on neighbors properties were put in. If you legally, in writing, notify a neighbor about their tree being a problem, it will be covered by the insurance companies. Regarding deductibles percentages – there is no regulation on the amount. The company can determine any percentage they choose. The maximum any flood insurance will ever pay is $250,000. An unknown fact is that insurance for basement flooding only covers walls, washing machines, and not much else. There are 31 people in attendance. The Treasurer explained that the Christmas Tree Lighting event, with all expenses, costs $1500.00. The Water District has a bond out for $14.8 million dollars, to upgrade over the coming years. Present were Board Members Larry Zaino and Peter Meade. They planted new trees on the property by Clearland Ave., to replace some destroyed by the hurricane. To paint the water tower inside and out costs millions. They will be drilling a new well behind Red Lobster restaurant, which was shut down in 1968 due to high nitrate levels. They have to go deeper, and we will need an ever increasing amount due to new homes, hotels, new irrigation systems, and more people tending to live in one house these days. A new treatment facility will be needed and also an updating of the system that monitors chlorine addition to our water. Well #5 (at Fushillo Park) has high volatile compounds. The money spent on purchasing the eight parking spaces at the park, was spent back into fixing the park. Nitrates and VOCs (volatile organic compounds) are constantly monitored. Levels, however, are trending up but are still in the lowest rates in Nassau County. The gradual increase in taxes over the years is projected at $12 a month per household. Effort for the bond will be made on January 29th, 2013 at the Town of North Hempstead meeting. Plans for the Nassau Hub are still up in the air, around the old Coliseum. One developer plans a $2 billion biotech park with mixed use development. If financing and permits go thru, the property could be ready for construction by the fall. The Town or Village of Hempstead may require some type of housing to be included. The Coliseum may be scaled down in size, or a smaller new arena be added with it. CPCA Board members are meeting with the County Traffic Department on the new shopping mall traffic problems. The February 27th Meeting will have Councilwoman Viviana Russell talking about repairs from hurricane Sandy. Also will be officers from the Town, Village of Mineola and the County to outline the work and schedule for the water remediation project on the Mineola/Carle Place border.

Sometimes, however, they will not. It is easy to celebrate with your child when he is successful. It is heart wrenching to support your child through disappointment. We can give some thought to our responses to our child's disappointments – and to our own disappointments for them. Nichelle Strzepek has written a wonderful commentary about this that should give us all food for thought. Although her article is titled Helping Dancers Deal With Disappointment, the principles she talks about go well beyond dancers and apply to all of us. Nichelle encourages us all to ask “Who is this person becoming?” Disappointments are part of the growing and learning process. In children especially, where one is going should matter a whole lot more than where one has been. Missions accomplished and tasks/goals completed are how we develop self-confidence in our abilities. We are not defined by our achievements. In fact, often we are Carle Place defined more by our failures. It is despite and somes d & Gourmet ar rs times because of obstacles or disappointments that we ing C o l Produce F eet we become a dancer, a doctor, or something Gr completely opposite but all the more right than whatever it is we want (or wanted) to be. 514 Westbury Avenue BETTER SCHOOLS BETTER COMMUNITIES By Bob SUPPORT YOUR COMMUNITY! JOIN THE CARLE PLACE CIVIC ASSOCIATION TODAY! It is sometimes easy to confuse our accomplishments and awards with who we are. In our culture we place a lot of emphasis on the achievements for which a person has been recognized – she is a two-time Olympic medalist; he is a famous actor who has won numerous stage and screen awards. These things say little of who a person really is. In addition, these recognitions only look back, never forward. During this time of year for our high school seniors, with the arrival of the acceptance – and rejection – letters, we may be acutely aware of the public nature of our student’s victories and defeats. Our responses will be an important key in helping them to keep these life experiences in perspective. For all your grocery & deli needs!

At a brief ceremony during the church's regular, 10 o'clock service, attended by parishioners including former Bishop's Cross recipients, priest in charge Ramirez placed the medals over the heads of Mr. and Mrs. Leonhard after reading from one of the certificates sent by Bishop Lawrence C Provenzano, "you have contributed immeasurably to the life, fellowship and service of this community.
