Central Boulevard School
During Winter Recess, we watched in horror as the tsunami
disaster occurred. As soon as we returned to school in
January, Janet Caseila and Billie Rothberg organized a
fundraising drive at Central Boulevard School. During the
entire month, the children and their families opened their
hearts and their pocket books for the tsunami victims. Lorraine
Marcis organized a bake sale during lunchtime. The second
graders had white elephant sales in their classes. There were
large collection jars located outside the main office. At the end
of the month, the donations equaled $ 3750. The money was
sent to UNICEF and the American Red Cross Tsunami Disaster
Relief Funds. Many thanks to all who contributed.

and plan to attend. Admission is free
and everyone is welcome to attend.
On Thursday, April 7 at 2: 00 P. M.
music historian Frank P. Carbonara
will be at the library with a fascinating
program entitled " What Happens in
Tosca." Puccini's opera Tosca is set
in Napoleonic times and includes
political overtones. It adapts a
French play by Sardou to achieve a
taut, brilliant, blood and thunder
melodrama in which Puccini's
melodic gift and sense of theater are
at their peak. The opera will be
examined act by act from its
Wagnerian motifs to its symbolism
and details of the musical and
dramatic structure.
Dr. Michael D'lnnocenzo,
Professor of History at Hofstra will be
at the library on Tuesday, April 12 at
2: 00 P. M. with " A Portrait of
Abraham Lincoln." Lincoln is widely
regarded as one of the truly great
men of all time. He is credited with
saving the Union and immortalized
by his visions as set forth in his
Emancipation Proclamation and his
Gettysburg Address. The program
will address the questions of
whether after 150 years he
deserves his rating as our greatest
president, how effective was he as a
war leader, a Reconstruction peace
maker, a dealer with race issues and
a champion of democracy. Did his
personal life affect his public
conduct and how different would
history have been if Booth's bullet
had missed its mark. Abe Lincoln will
be reexamined as man and myth.
With visual aids.
Then save Thursday, April 14 at
2: 00 P. M. with a program entitled
" Passport to Discover Peru"
presented by Shirley Blanc
Romaine, Actress & TV personality
as part of the library's PASSPORTS
travel series. Discover this land of
contrasts, great beauty, long history
and ethnic diversity within its large
cities, Spanish colonial towns, the
snow- capped Andes and coastal
deserts.

First S. T. O. P. and Electronic Waste
Collection Day Scheduled For April 16
The first of eight S. T. O. P. ( Stop Throwing Out Pollutants) and Electronic
Waste Collection days for Oyster Bay Town residents is scheduled for
Saturday, April 16, according to Town Councilman Angelo A. Delligatti.
" The collection day will be held at John J. Burns Town Park, Merrick
Road, Massapequa, between 9: 00 a. m. and 4: 00 p. m.," Councilman
Delligatti stated. " Residents who would like further information can call 677-
5748.
" The Town has an informative brochure about the S. T. O. P. and Electronic
Waste Collection programs, including a list of what can be disposed of
through both programs and the schedule of collection days and locations for
2005," Councilman Delligatti continued. " Any resident or organization interested
in obtaining a free brochure should call or write the Town of Oyster
Bay Public Information Office, Oyster Bay Town Hall East, 54 Audrey
Avenue, Oyster Bay, N. Y. 11771 ( 624- 6380).
" The S. T. O. P. program, which provides residents with an environmentally
safe means for disposal of household hazardous waste, is now in its 20th
year," Councilman Delligatti said. " This is the second year for the Electronic
Waste Collection program, and the Town of Oyster Bay is the first Town on
Long Island to have a regularlyischeduled e- waste program. Up until the
inception of the program, which was kicked off in April 2004, all e- waste in
the Town had been hauled away and disposed of with the regular garbage.
Now, the Town is offering residents a convenient and environmentally
friendly way to recycle their e- waste. Under the program, the Town accepts
computer monitors and hard drives, printers, keyboards, mice and cables,
copiers and fax machines, cell phones, pagers, VCRs and stereos.
Supreme Computer & Electronic Recycling, Inc., a company specializing in
e- waste recycling, will collect the items and recycle the components, thereby
ensuring that they will not end up in a landfill or incinerator."

Oyster Bay Town Supervisor John Venditto ( seated with
children) was recently invited to Stratford Road Elementary
School in Plainview for the school's Guest Readers Day
Program, part of its Parents as Reading Partners Program for
2005. The Supervisor was delighted to read " The Bookshop
Dog" to the students of Mrs. Schwartz's second grade class.
Oyster Bay Becomes First Town cfn Long
Island To Adopt a Clean Energy Ax^ ion Plan
The Oyster Board Town Board has become the first Town on Long Island
to adopt an annual Clean Energy Action Plan, according to Town
Supervisor John Venditto. The plan was adopted by a unanimous vote at the
Town Board's March 22nd meeting.
" In February 2004, I formed the Green Energy Task Force, which includes
representatives from my office, the Departments of Environmental
Resources, General Services, Parks, Public Works and Intergovernmental
Affairs, and the Public Information Office," Supervisor Venditto said. " The
task force was charged with developing a plan that includes both long and
short term goals. The plan could include recommendations f$ r making building
energy improvements; reducing the Town's reliance on fossil fuels by
purchasing green power or developing our own sources of grjeeri power
such as solar; wind or wave, increasing the Town's use of energy- efficient
vehicles and equipment such as computers, copiers, fax machines and
heating/ cooling products, as well as recycled products; and developing
guidelines on how Town employees can save energy in theindaily routines.
The plan could also include recommendations for changes in the Town
Building Code to make future home and commercial construction and
reconstruction more energy- efficient. j
" The task force recently submitted an action plan for 2005,' lwhich the-
Town Board has now adopted, making Oyster Bay the first T< pwn on Long
Island to have an annual plan," the Supervisor continued. " T| e plan calls for
the task force to continue assessing the Town's use of green? energy
sources and how more green energy might be incorporated ihto the daily
operation of the Town through such venues as the use of energy star products
in Town construction projects, alternative fuel vehicles, and solar and
wind power at Town facilities. It also provides for the task forcje to continue
meeting with energy agencies and authorities to keep abreast of various
options for assessing the energy we now use, the alternatives available, and
the sources of technical and financial assistance that are available to us."
Supervisor Venditto went on to say that the Town of Oyster Bay has
already taken a leadership role in energy conservation and reducing greenhouse
emissions. " We have incorporated alternative fuel and electric vehicles
into our fleet, converted to energy- saving lighting in all qf our facilities
and implemented curbside and office recycling programs, wrjich save energy
by reducing the fossil fuels needed to extract and manufacture new products,"
the Supervisor said. " We use recycled products such as paper, toilet
tissue and plastic lumber, which typically use less energy to produce than
new products, and have an aggressive tree- planting program. As well as
absorbing large amounts of carbon dioxide, trees provide shade for buildings
and streets, reducing the amount of energy needed to cool buildings.
Most of these measures have made good economic, as welljas environmental
sense. We are now exploring the use of green power, which is generated
from ' renewable' sources, such as wind, hydroelectric or solar energy, at
one of our Town facilities. j
" The fossil fuels we now use to heat our buildings, to generate electricity
and to power our vehicles took millions of years to produce,"' Supervisor
Venditto commented. " In a little over one hundred years, we have depleted
much of this supply and, in the process, have degraded the air we breathe.
The task force is compiling the information I need to guide our Town in relying
more on cleaner and renewable sources of energy and improving Oyster
Bay's already outstanding environmental track record through new efforts to
promote energy conservation and efficiency and lower its emissions of
greenhouse gases."
Town Board Appoints
New Member to Environmental
Control Commission
The Oyster Bay Town Board has
approved the appointment of Kyle
Rabin, Executive Director of the
Friends of Oyster Bay, to the
Environmental Control Commission,
according to Town Supervisor John
Venditto.
Mr. Rabin, whose experience
includes serving as senior policy
analyst and campaign director at
Riverkeeper, Inc., policy analyst for
the Council of State Governments,
and working with Environmental
Advocates of New York, replaces
Louise Harrison, former Executive
Director of Friends of the Bay. His
term will expire on April 19, 2006.
" The Environmental Control
Commission ( ECC) was originally
established in 1972 as a voluntary
citizens group appointed by the
Town Board to assist the Town in
reviewing general environmental,
conservation and preservation
issues," Supervisor Venditto said.
" When I proposed the creation of a
Department of Environmental
Resources, I also requested the
commission be revitalized, which it
was in April 2004. All of the
members of the commission have
strong environmental backgrounds
and share a concern for protecting
and enhancing the environment."
Supervisor Venditto noted that
other members of the commission
include chairman Joseph Lorintz,
founder and Executive . director . of;
the Long Island Drinking Water
Coalition and the Society to
Preserve Underhill; David Relyea,
co- owner of Frank M. Flower & Sons
Oyster Company; Adrienne
Esposito, Associate Executive
Director of Citizens Campaign for the
Environment; Bryan Brown,
president of the Coalition to Save
Hempstead Harbor; and Carol
Meschow, president of the
Concerned Citizens of the
Plainview- Old Bethpage
Community, Inc.
' The Town of Oyster Bay is
blessed with abundant resources
and diverse environments,"
Supervisor Venditto stated. " From
the delicate ecosystem of the South
Shore Estuary Reserve to the
Magathy Aquifer to Oyster Bay
Harbor, one of the last viable
shellfishing harbors on Long Island,
the Town's remarkable natural
resources have helped shape its
economy, culture and history.
These resources also provide us
with the responsibility of good
stewardship. Just as the Department
of Environmental Resources has
been helping focus, streamline and
strengthen the Town's
environmental programs, the
members of the ECC have been
sharing their expertise to better
ensure the preservation,
conservation and protection of
natural resources, Mr. Rabin's."

EDITOR'S NOTEBOOK
I am sure that 15 years ago no one would have guessed that the name
Terri Schiavo would be part of discussions, debates and protests in
households all over this country. The story of a tragic girl's ascension into a
coma however is not the point that is discussed or debated. Rather it is the
decision to prolong or terminate the life of a young woman who was deemed
" a vegetable" after slipping into a potassium deprived coma a decade ago.
The husband says end it now, the parents say let her live and the country
debates, protests and watches as what should have been a family's decision
unfolds into a television and newspaper frenzy and spectacle.
I listened to the two sides of this story with an open mind. Some may
understand a husband wanting to end what he deems as a life sentence to
both himself and his wife. If in fact she did not want to live by artificial means
then that would explain his diligence in removing her feeding tube.
I can also completely relate to her parent's view in not wanting to deprive
her of food. They feel she is there and she understands and responds to
them and so allowing her to be fed via feeding tube is not to them
extraordinary measures of preserving life. To them it is just a treatment.
My question after listening to both sides is ????????? " Why are we in a
hurry to do this?" " Why now?" If her husband wanted to get on with his life ( he
has been living with a woman and has fathered two children) all he would have
had to do is divorce her. No one could blame him. This tragedy happened
when they both were very young. After staying by her side he may feel that
the time has come to walk away and get on with his life and his dreams for his
future. Why couldn't he just walk away?
I watched newsbroadcast after news broadcast which aired pictures of
Terri interacting with her parents and visitors and one thing stood out in my
mind. Let me explain. You see 2 years ago when my mother slipped into a
coma after suffering a staph inflection on top of a bout with emphysema I
studied every move she made. Although she could not talk to me she did
respond. Cold water on her forehead made her smile. Her eyes spoke to me
and we communicated without a single spoken word. That went on for 18
days until one day the spark was gone. The light that showed in her eyes was
now dark and much in the same way as you turn off a light switch, her light was
gone. I knew on that day that she was gone. There were no smiles or sighs of
relief when I rubbed her face, no glimmer in her eye, no life left. It was easy to
see. At that point I questioned every doctor, every nurse and asked them if
she was still alive. They all told me yes, although the respirator she was on
was tricking her heart into thinking she was still alive. Her kidneys had failed.
Her liver stopped functioning and she had no detectable blood pressure.
Nothing was left except the beeping of a machine. My choice was to leave her
on the respirator which would prolong her life artificially or allow her to be
taken off the vent. All the while she received nourishment through a tube in
her nose as well as fluids through an IV. I asked doctors what would happen if
we turned off the respirator and they didn't know. They told me she may
breathe on her own or she may not. I on the other hand knew she was gone
already. Unfortunately I was right and when they turned off the vent she
peacefully and painlessly went with God. I believe he was trying to take her all
along, and although they deemed that day as the day she passed away in my
mind she died 5 days before. The day her light went out.
To me, Terri Schiavo's light is still on. I could see her responding and
smiling and in my mind she should continue to be fed. She was not being
kept alive with a respirator, she just was unable to eat. It is much like refusing
to give insulin to a diabetic who has also suffered a stroke and is unable to
communicate. When my mother was in a nursing home there were many
patients who did not communicate and had to be fed with a feeding tube.
They were alive and in my mind so is Terri. Why not just feed her and allow
God to take her when it's her time? That feeding tube was not going to
prevent her death. Many many people die each day on feeding tubes from
various other diseases and/ or complications. Starving this woman is cruel and
unnecessary in my opinion and I just don't understand why it is being allowed.
I am a firm believer that we all should retain our dignity while on this earth
and I completely understand the heartache and pain that comes when a loved
one becomes dependent on others for their survival yet are the same folks
who are so concerned about ending Terri's life in the name of " dignity"
concerned about her dignity when night after night photos of her tragedy
flood our television screens? Her face haunts me. The light and glimmer in
her eyes is evident on a television screen. And I believe to deprive this girl of
food is simply starving her to death. Feeding someone, even via a tube, to
me is not an extraordinary measure... it is a treatment and a basic necessity to
everyone. .• ,' . ^
The most important issue the Schiavo case has raised is the importance of
having a living will, which can spell out exactly what measures an individual
would agree to endure in order to sustain their life. It is a document that all of
us need to have.
As you read this editorial I am not sure what Tern s fate will be. I can t
imagine her living much longer when she is being denied food. I am sure
however that she will forever be remembered as the woman who made the
world think about what life really means to us all. To me she has reaffirmed my
experiences with my Mom and allowed me to remember the light of life which
shines in the eyes of what may seem the most lifeless of persons. It has been
said that the eyes are the heart of the soul. When that light is extinguished life
is qone There is however a difference in that light being extinguished on its
own or being blown out intentionally. My belief is that we all will live until it is
our time to go. There is a plan and it is a plan I am not so comfortable in
changing. At least not when there is a glimmer of hope, a sparkle in an eye
and a light to brighten the soul.

The Answer to a Bright White
Smile Is Britesmile!
by Linda Mangano
! don't know how you feel but
when I meet or speak to someone
the first two things I notice are their
eyes and their smile. As we all get
older our smiles age right along with
us and our once white smiles yellow
from coffee, tea and age. Well let me
tell you there is a solution to dull
yellow tinged teeth and it is a
solution that takes a little over an
hour without any pain at all.
Britesmile teeth whitening is a
new approach to teeth bleaching
and is performed in a dentist's office.
It is way more effective than over the
counter bleaching products and
much easier than traditional
bleaching trays. I decided to have
the treatment done o see if my
pearly whites could make a
comeback. I made my appointment
with Dr. Connie Collura who is
located at 4216 Hempstead
Turnpike right in Bethpage. I arrived
at 8: 30 and was greeted by friendly
staff who took me right into the
treatment room.
Karen Calfayan the wonderful
lady who gave me a new bright smile
performed the treatment which took
approximately 1 hour and 15
minutes. When I was done I was
amazed at how bright my smile had
become. I felt great and was
overwhelmed and elated at the
results. The results last about 3
years and touch ups and
maintenance should be done to
keep your whites white.
The price for the treatment varies
and coupons for the service are
always available at britesmile. com.
I have to thank Doctor Connie
Collura and her entire staff for their
friendliness, competence and for
making my smile 20 years younger
and a whole lot brighter. Let's just
say I haven't stopped smiling!! Now if
they could do something about
crows feet life would be perfect.

Online With Mary McCaffrey
5: 00 AM - jolted from a pleasant dream at the ungodly hour of 5: 00 AM, I
dressed in a hurry to get over to the Town of Oyster Bay Sanitation
Department for the annual Employee Awards ceremony.
I am not a morning person so the sight of snow on the ground increased
the moans and groans as I got ready... cleaning off the windows of the car did
not improve my spirits.
I arrived at the Sanitation Department on time for the 5: 30 AM ceremony
only to learn that the supervisor had a television interview with channel 12
and gave out the awards early - at 5: 15. Most of the recipients were in their
trucks on their way to their assigned routes.
" It's going to be one of those days," I thought. I decided to stay for a while
and thank the tew members of the department who were still in the office.
Billy
He was sitting alone at the end of a cafeteria style table, hands cupped
around a paper coffee cup. We shook hands and I could see that something
was wrong. He tipped his hat in a gentlemanly gesture of respect and I knew
something was definitely wrong.
" What happened to you?" I asked.
Billy had been in a car fire. His seat belt was the first to catch on fire. The
flames shot up across his body to his head. The rim of his face was still
scarred. His hair was cropped close to his head indicating that it was just
beginning to grow back.
" I'm out on disability," he said. Holding his hands up in a display of
strength, he continued, " my father always told me I could make a living using
these ( his hands) and he was right. I have worked for the town for 25 years. I
was on a sanitation truck for years and then the S. O. R. T. trucks. It's a good
job. i like it."
Once again, he removed his hat to show me the pin he had just received
for 25 years of service to the town. It was affixed to the front of his cap.
" I walked here to get my award," he said.
" Walked?" I repeated, " From where?"
" Hicksville," he replied.
" But it was snowing..." I said, thinking of my own comfortable ride in a
heated car.
" I left my apartment at 3: 00 o'clock and walked up 106- 107 then along the
Long Island Service Road to here."
I " See that," he said pointing to the pin. " The next one I get will be for 30
J years," he went on optimistically.
: All throughout the day, town employees with 20, 25 and 30 years of
; service were acknowledged with a special pin. The value of that pin is
measured in the kinds of people that work for the town and their dedication to
making the Town of Oyster Bay work. They pick up our trash, clean our
streets and parks, " man" the phones during snow emergencies and work
' round the clock when the situation demands. They keep the records and
process requests for permits. They are the " nuts and bolts" of town
government. They make us elected officials look good.
Of course there are some people who do not meet the high standards we
hope for, but they are in the minority. It's the Jimmies, Dianes, Charlenes,
Pauls, Kevins, Roses and Bills... who are the backbone of the town's
workforce... the ones who might not walk in the snow to get an award, but
they do their job diligently day in and day out.
Billy taught me a lesson last Thursday... despite his obvious suffering and
pain, he was willing to walk miles to get a pin... a symbol of his achievement at
work. You never know how important symbols of achievement are. That pin
meant a lot to Billy. He left the Sanitation Department feeling proud... looking
forward to the day when he can return to work and eventually get that 30 year
pin.

Another War Story
by Bud Rosch, past comdr of Butehorn Bros. VFW Post.
Feb. 4, 2005. Aloha Jewish Chapel at Pearl Harbor. After
ceremony of honoring the 4 chaplains lost 2/ 3/ 43 with Post
Commander Pete of American Legion.
Rabbi Alexander Goode,
A terrible tragic occurrence
happened during WW II on the
second of February 1943. A troop
carrier ship named USS Dorchester
was torpedoed on its way to
Greenland. The loss of life was
about 650 of our servicemen. The
Germans torpedoed the troop carrier
off the Greenland shore.
There were four chaplains aboard
the ship, a Catholic Father John T.
Washington, a Methodist Rev.
George L. Fox, a Dutch Reformed
Rev. Clark P. Poling and a Jewish
Chaplain Rabbi Alexander Goode.
All four Chaplains died in this sinking
of the USS Dorchester. They gave
their life preservers to the
servicemen.
Butehorn Bros, member Ed
Langlieb and his wife Louise were
visiting their son in Hawaii for six
weeks. One of the things they did
was to visit the Aloha Jewish Chapel
at the base of Pearl Harbor and
Temple Emanu- el at Honolulu. Our
brothers in arms the American
Legion sponsored an observance of
the Four Chaplains who died in the
USS Dorchester sinking. The
z" l ( of blessed memory)
observance was called the Four
Chaplain Shabbat. There were family
members and others that knew the
Jewish Chaplain Rabbi Alexander
Goode, however the shabbat put on
by " Pete" of the American Legion
was solely to honor the four
Chaplains.
Our VFW member Ed Langlieb
and his wife Louise while there,
swam in the Pacific Ocean from the
beautiful beaches of Honolulu. They
said it was great to be with their son,
Barry. Below you will see a photo of,
from left to right, Ed Langlieb,
" Pete" from the sponsoring
American Legion and a Navy
Chaplain in training ( whose name Ed
said he did not get). Also pictured
below is a picture of Chaplain Rabbi
Alexander Goode from the program.
The program was opened with the
singing of America The Beautiful
and closed with the singing of Adon
Olam ( Hebrew hymn). During the
services a Kaddish Yatom was said
for the four hero chaplains ( Hebrew
prayers for the dead).
Ed and his wife said it was a very
impressive ceremony.
