Volume XXIII No. 43 Hometown Newspaper for Glen Cove, Sea Cliff, Glen Head, Glenwood, Locust Valley and Brookville Week of 6/19/14 75C Sea Cliff Mayor Mayor Congratulates Glen Cove Day Care Graduates Bumped By Republican Party?

At has Monday night campaign kick-off; Sea Cliff Mayor Bruce Ken- nedy had a surprise for his support- ers. Despite being nominated as the Republican Party candidate for the NYS Assembly in the 13th District, his designation was yanked unexpectedly last Tuesday and he will be facing a primary election. According to an article that ap- peared in Newsday Tuesday, Kennedy was deemed an unacceptable candidate by the Nassau County Conservative Party because he had performed at least one same sex marriage in his tenure as mayor. The Nassau County Republi- can Party, in an effort to maintain their alliance with the conservatives, decid- ed to switch candidates to one that was agreeable to both parties. At his kick-off, Kennedy stated, “the Marriage Equality Act was passed in 2011 and I took an oath of office to uphold the laws of the State of New Mayor Reginald A. Spinello was an invited guest to the graduation ceremonies of the children in the Glen Cove Day Care Head York. As the result of abiding to the Start program.

Some persons wrongly believe that if they do not have a taxable estate, they do not need estate planning. They fail to recognize that estate tax planning is just one aspect of estate planning. Many reasons to engage in estate planning still exist despite the increase in the estate tax exemption. These reasons address important issues that have nothing to do with estate taxes.

The Strategy: Everyone over the age of eighteen should have an estate plan re- gardless of their level of assets. Every person should have at least a health care proxy, living will, durable power of attorney and a last will and testament with proper provisions.

Non-Tax Considerations: If you wish to choose who will benefit from your es- tate upon your death rather than defaulting to the government’s plan to distribute your assets, a good estate plan includes a last will and testament. If you do not want your family to have to file a court proceeding to become your guardian and you do not want your family potentially fighting in court over who should be your guardian, a good estate plan will address appointing agents to make medical and financial decisions for you if you are no longer able to do so yourself. If you are concerned about losing your assets to the costs of a nursing home or other long- term care in the future, a good estate plan implements a plan (e.g., long-term care insurance or Medicaid planning) to protect your assets from the substantial risk that such expensive care may become necessary. If you are concerned that your beneficiaries may go through a divorce or be sued, a good estate plan includes provisions so their inheritance is best protected from a divorce, other lawsuits, and falling outside you bloodline. If you have mi- nor children, you should designate standby and permanent guardians.

The Result: A proper estate plan - which addresses tax as well as non-tax consid- erations - allows you to remain in control of your life‘s important decisions and legacy decisions while also protecting the interests of your family members.

As their ducklings incubated for 28 days, the students engaged in research as well as hands-on experiments. This included examining the eggs, learning how things grow and develop, experiencing the hatching, and providing proper food and care for the ducklings. Experiments in- volved analyzing hard boiled eggs vs. fresh eggs and feathers in oil vs. water. The classes also took a trip to the duck pond in Roslyn to further observe duck behavior as well as draw sketches of these animals in their natural environ- ment. Additionally, in their individual classrooms, the students also read many stories about ducks as well as wrote de- tailed stories of their own like “scien- tists.” During the Hatching Celebration, the first graders invited their families to join in the festivities as they sang songs, shared their journals, and became “egg- Photo Caption: Article and photos by Shelly Newman sperts” on these adorable living organ- Pictured are first graders at Glen Head welcoming their waddling, yellow, fury friends into the world – their ducklings – as part of their study isms! on organisms!

They researched that volcanoes come in all shapes and sizes with varying degrees of activity as well as notoriety. Student Matthew Granelli said, “The most inter- esting thing I learned was that there are so many volcanoes in this world that have a huge effect on that country's economy and government.” The Earth Science class had the op- portunity to choose a volcano from a list of notable events in history and conduct research, experiment, and gather facts and information. To culminate their studies, each student either alone or with a partner made a presentation to their classmates in the form of a poster, sci- entific letter, or model of their volcano. Ms. DiLallo said each presentation had to contain, “The name and type of vol- cano studied, the location/country where the volcano erupted, and its map of co- ordinates and elevation of summit (i.e., height).” She added “My students had to “summarize the important eruption dates and provide a volcano diagram repre- senting the tectonic plate, general shape, crustal movement, and magma.” Pictured are 9th Graders at North Shore High School studying that volcanoes come in all Student Oliva Mevorach said, “Vol- shapes and sizes with varying degrees of activity as well as notoriety.

The decorative cafes had original themes and titles such as “The Moonbeam Café” and “The Lion Tamer’s Café.” In May, excited parents and family members gathered in the hallways of Glen Head Elementary to be eagerly greeted by their “student hosts and hostesses.” The kindergarteners were dressed up in hats and aprons according to their respective cafe theme. Inside the classrooms, desks were arranged as beautiful tables with flowers and decorations to resemble a fabulous cafe with banquet tables filled with home- made delicacies and baked breads. The students in each café took on the following jobs: bus boys and girls, waiters and waitresses, hosts and hostesses, kitchen workers, samplers, recipe book sales- people, cashiers, money changers and managers. The kindergarteners took their jobs very seriously and worked as a team to serve and please all those in attendance to the delight of all those who gathered to enjoy a delicious breakfast treat!

This was the first time and an honor for the parade to be lead by a Color Guard from Troop 43. The Boy Scouts pointed the way carrying the American Flag and the Sea Cliff Village Flag. The balance of Troop 43 and its adult leaders followed along with the other parade participants. It was a true honor to support our Community and Veterans on this annual event.
