Long Island Memories
8? r < « 5^ K » Proudly Serving the Community for Over 43 Years SERVING BETHPAGE, ISLHND TREES, OLD BETHPAGE, PLAINVIEW, SEAFORD AND PLAINEDGE VOL. 43 NO. 34 September 23 - 29, 2005 FIFTY CENTS Stewart Avenue Traffic Light Approved The Bethpage Tribune is happy to report that after an extensive study, many requests and several years, that a traffic light will be installed on Stewart Avenue and Beverly Road along with various roadway improvements, which will be made on Stewart Avenue and Broadway. The request for this light dates back to 1995 and after-several denials we are happy to say that in a traffic study, which was released in August of 2005, the Nassau County Department of Public Works recommended that certain improvements be made to these roadways. The following summary is taken directly from the 2005 Traffic Safety Study. Executive Summary Over the years, the Nassau County Department of Public Works has conducted studies at specific intersections along Stewart Ave. and Broadway in Bethpage in response to specific requests or complaints. Recent tragic collisions along Stewart Ave. have resulted in increased publicity and renewed public concerns over the safety of Stewart Ave. As a result, the Nassau County Department of Public Works has conducted a comprehensive traffic study to review traffic conditions in the area and make recommendations for improvement. The Bethpage corridor study covered the area along Stewart Avenue between Plainedge Drive and South Oyster Bay Road as well as the area along Broadway between Central Ave. and Cherry Ave./ Plainview Road. The purpose of this study was to review existing conditions, identify any possible deficiencies and to propose modifications that could enhance overall safety in the area. The study includes a review of existing conditions, a survey of the condition of the existing traffic controls, the collection of critical traffic related data, the technical analysis of all available data using standard traffic engineering principles, conclusions and specific recommendations based on all of the above. Stewart Avenue from Boundary Road, north to South Oyster Bay Road is a four lane road that generally runs north- south. The length of the roadway is approximately 3.7 miles. Development along this road consists of both residential homes and commercial establishments. The pavement on Stewart Avenue is asphalt and is in good condition along the entire section of this study. In general, Stewart Avenue consists of two lanes in each direction with a center turning lane or double yellow centerline and parking on both sides of the road. In general, Broadway is a two lane road that runs north- south with a painted yellow centerline separating traffic. The length of the roadway to be reviewed is approximately 1.3 miles. Development along this road consists of both residential homes and commercial establishments. A total of 17 Nassau County signalized intersections were included in the study ( 13 along Stewart Ave. and 4 along Broadway). Numerous non-signalized locations were analyzed. Pavement markings, signage, roadway lighting, mass transit information, intersection sight distance and sidewalk conditions were reviewed. All signal timing data was collected and analyzed. Extensive manual turning movement counts were conducted. Vehicle speed data was collected manually using typical " undercover" data collection techniques as well as automatic, bulk speed data collection using our mobile speed awareness device. Accident records were obtained from the Nassau County Police Department. All of the above data was reviewed in detail and analyzed using standard traffic engineering principles. Specific analysis that was conducted included signal timing analysis, traffic signal warrant studies, traffic calming alternatives, Highway Capacity analysis and a detailed collision analysis. Recommendations, including: the improvement of various signs and signals throughout the area; the installation of speed awareness devices; arid the installation of a new traffic signal at Stewart Avenue and Beverly/ Meade, are summarized at the end of the report. After a comprehensive study u* the traffic conditions along Stewart Avenue and Broadway, in Bethpage, a number of recommendations have been made for improvements to the traffic infrastructure in the area. While these recommendations will enhance the overall safety of the road, the study did not reveal any unusually abnormal or otherwise " dangerous" conditions along either roadway. Overall, conditions in the area are not unlike those along many other County roads. Recommendations 1. Rebuild the traffic signals at Stewart Avenue and Adams Gate, Stewart Avenue and Central Avenue and Broadway at Central Avenue to improve the location ( and visibility) of traffic signal indications. 2. Refurbish existing pavement markings along Stewart Avenue from Hempstead Tpk. to Central Avenue. In addition, add edge lines in this same area. 3. Refurbish pavement markings along Broadway. 4. Remove the existing passing zone ( dashed yellow centerline) along Broadway and replace it with a full barrier ( double yellow line) to prohibit passing. 5. Forward street light outages to the Town of Oyster Bay for review. 6. Remove trees on Stewart Avenue at Arthur Avenue, on Stewart Avenue at Helena Ave. and on Broadway at Coronet Crescent West to improve sight distance. 7. Request parking restrictions at various locations along Stewart Avenue and along Broadway to improve sight distance. 8. Trim trees obstructing or partially obstructing traffic controls along Stewart Avenue and Broadway. 9. Improve various County signs as noted in Table 7. 10. The County should request that the Town consider installing larger print street name signs along Stewart Avenue to create a better visibility of the street names and consider lowering the height of the Balsam Place sign because it is not visible to drivers. The County will also notify the Town of Oyster Bay that the Balfour Drive street sign is missing and needs to be replaced. 11. The County will request that the Town of Oyster Bay consider installing additional speed limit signs along Stewart Avenue between Hempstead Tpk. and Boundary Ave. In addition, we will request that they also consider installing additional speed limit signing along Stewart Ave. north of this area. 12. Issue demand notices for all noted sidewalk defects. 13. Improve all traffic signals along Stewart Avenue to provide 12 inch faces along Stewart Avenue. In addition, all vehicular and pedestrian indications should be replaced with LED indications. 14. Increase yellow and all red clearances at several signalized intersections. 15. Install a new traffic signal on Stewart Avenue at Beverly Road/ Meade Avenue. 16. Install speed awareness devices on Stewart Avenue at the following three locations: South of Central Avenue, North of the LIRR tracks, and South of Cherry Avenue. 17. Request that the Nassau County Police Department continue enforcement of traffic regulations in this area, especially the speed limit. 18. Modify existing traffic signal timing for the traffic signals on Broadway at Powell Avenue and Benkert Street to better coordinate the flow of traffic through these intersections. 19. Install horizontal pavement markings ( MPH markings) at various locations along Stewart Avenue. The Tribune has been told that the necessary funds to complete this project are in place and that construction is expected to begin within the next 45 days. In January speed detection devices are slated to be installed. Although we all should be quite pleased with the improvements that will be made along Stewart Avenue and Broadway, sadly ( Continued on pa^ e 8) COMMUNITY EVENTS Defensive Driving Course The Community Center of Plainview- Old Bethpage proudly sponsors " Defensive Driving" state approved for insurance and point reduction given at Plainview Middle School on Central Park Road on Tues.

The oldest vases boasted abstract designs but toward 800 B. C. living forms appeared. By 700 B. C. because of increased trade, pottery began to exhibit influences from Egypt and the Near East. The program will continue through the 6th Century B. C. and on into the Classical age presenting an exciting evolution of Greek Art. On Tuesday, October 18 at 2: 00 P. M. Music Historian Frank P. Carbonara will present a unique program entitled " What Happens in Tosca Revisited" as part of the library's on- going CONVERSATIONS WITH MUSIC series. Puccini was inspired by Sarah Bernhardt's performance in the riveting drama La Tosca by Sardou to translate the story into grand opera. This program will closely examine the second part of the intense masterpiece which is set in Napoleonic times. Passion, political intrigue, betrayal and harrowing interrogation combine with mastery of orchestration and tremendous melodic presentation. This is an opportunity to come to grips with the symbolism and structure that comprise Tosca.

SCOTT BERG 195 Park Ave., Bethpage, NY 11714 ( 516) 433- 4114 Assessor Harvey Levinson ( seated) is joined by the representatives of the Nassau County Police Department and Police Auxiliary to support his proposal that would allow Auxiliary Police volunteers to benefit from the same 10% property tax exemption that is currently granted to volunteer firefighters and ambulance workers. Assessor Levinson's proposal is currently awaiting support and approval by State legislators. Pictured ( standing from left to right) are: Auxiliary Police Lieutenant and Syosset resident Kevin Meller, serving Woodbury, Oyster Bay and East Norwich; Auxiliary Police Captain and Lynbrook resident Diane Laukaitis, serving East Rockaway; Auxiliary Police Inspector and Farmingdale resident JoAnn Edling, serving Farmingdale; Auxiliary Police Inspector and Garden City resident Neal Rosenblatt, serving West Hempstead, Franklin Square, Lakeview and Garden City South; Nassau County Police Inspector Peter Matuza; and Nassau County Police Officer Lori Levering. They serve as the " eyes and ears" of the Police Department and patrol in marked vehicles to help make our neighborhoods safe. Yet, according to Assessor Harvey Levinson, the nearly 300 community- minded men and women who volunteer to serve as members of the Nassau County Auxiliary Police are often overlooked when we take the time to recognize and reward the efforts of other volunteer services with pension credits and property tax exemptions. " Since 9/ 11, the resources of local governments have been strained due to the necessity of providing an increased police presence to combat and curtail potential terrorist threats," stated Assessor Levinson. " To meet the challenges at hand, our uniformed Auxiliary Police are providing an invaluable service of not only providing a deterring presence throughout the county, but allows our paid police officers the flexibility that they need to focus manpower on other emergency situations that may arise on a daily basis." In recognition of the outstanding contributions and sacrifices of the Auxiliary Police force, Assessor Levinson is calling on all legislators to act immediately and provide them with the same 10% property tax exemption credit that is granted to volunteer firefighters and ambufance workers. " I believe that this recognition is long overdue," stated Assessor Levinson. " By granting Auxiliary Police the same property tax exemption benefits of our volunteer firefighters and ambulance workers, you are not only correcting an oversight, but will be helping the recruitment efforts of an integral component of our national and local security efforts." Established in 1951 under the provisions of the Civil Defense Act, the Auxiliary Police are given a 22- session basic training course at the Nassau County Police Academy. As part of their training, volunteers receive instruction on the New York State Penal Law, hazardous materials awareness, basic First Aid/ CPR, Peace Officer powers, and critical incident response. " Residents who would like to learn more about the Auxiliary Police and playing a vital role in making their communities a safer place to live should call Auxiliary Police headquarters at ( 516) 573- 7521," ! Assessor Levinson concluded. mmJH L . ST.

I Town of Oyster Bay to Host Hurricane Seminars Summer Intern Oyster Bay Town Supervisor John Venditto announced that the Town will host hurricane seminars to be conducted by former Town Councilman and avocational meteorologist Leonard B. Symons. They will be held on Monday, September 26 at the Massapequa West End Firehouse on Hicksville Road ( Route 107) and Brooklyn Avenue and on Wednesday, September 28 at the East Norwich Volunteer Fire Company No. 1 Headquarters, located at 900 Oyster Bay Road ( Route 106). Both seminars will begin at 7: 00 p. m. ' The devastating effects of Hurricane Katrina have only underscored the importance of being prepared locally in the event of a significant storm," Supervisor Venditto said. " As was made clear in New Orleans just last month, it only takes one storm to devastate a community. We all need to know what to do in case a hurricane is headed for our area. ' The purpose of the seminar is to inform residents on how to prepare for a hurricane, when to evacuate, what to do when a storm hits and how to best respond during the aftermath of a hurricane or other severe weather event such as a nor'easter," Supervisor Venditto continued. " Mr. Symons, who has trained at the National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida, will moderate the seminar, which will also feature several well- respected hurricane experts to discuss important emergency preparedness procedures." The Supervisor added that many Long Island residents have become complacent because there . hasn't been a major hurricane in this area for many years. The horrifying effects of Katrina, which many people have called the nation's deadliest natural disaster since the 1960 San Francisco earthquake, has changed many residents' outlook on hurricane preparedness. " Hurricanes are one of the most damaging, and potentially deadly, weather events, with nor'easters right behind them," Supervisor Venditto stated. " Both types of storms can have devastating impacts on the economy, but, more important, the human toll can be very high when people aren't prepared. While Long Island has not had a significant hurricane or nor'easter in many years, we should never be complacent. This seminar is a great way to learn from the experts what you need to know to ensure that you and your family will be prepared should a hurricane or nor'easter find its way to Long Island."

The Bethpage Chamber of Commerce is asking local businesses, organizations and families to participate in their adopt a planter program. Many other communities all across Long Island have started programs like this as a way to get business owners, organizations and local families involved in their Chamber and also as a way to insure that their town's appearance is maintained.

When you have made the commitment to that planter your name will appear on it as the GREEN THUMB Sponsor. The Chamber will then allow you to select whatever plants you wish from our list of available plants ( at no cost to the sponsor) and it is then the sponsor's obligation to maintain their planter. By maintaining the Chamber means obviously watering the planter as well as the trimming and clean up of the boxes. This program will start in March of 2006 and in August of 2006 the Bethpage Chamber of Commerce will present one lucky sponsor with the Bethpage Chamber of Commerce GREEN THUMB Award as well as a $ 200 prize! Although it seems very early on or perhaps late in the season to_ be starting this program, the Bethpage Chamber of Commerce wants to make sure that every planter has a sponsor so that everyone in Bethpage will be treated to a spring and summer blooming with color next yea. rPleasefdl out the application below to sign up to adopt your planter today.

Returning to the tent this year will be the Fair's resident homegrown " phrenologist" Professor Henry C. P. Clark, who will read the bumps on your head. The Fair also hosts the end- of-season playoff matches of the Old Time Base Ball Leagues at Old Bethpage Village Restoration. Old Time Base Ball recreates vintage baseball as it was played in the latter half of the 1800s. Nine teams will compete in authentic uniforms, playing under the banners of actual Long Island clubs from that era. Fairgoers will be amazed, as these skilled athletes field without gloves. Included with admission to the Fair, the games will bring fair visitors back to the way " base ball" used to be -- on real grass and played for the love of the game. t Every year several hundred volunteers help set up and assist at the exhibits, booths, sheds and tents at the Fair. To find out how you can be part of the 163- year tradition of the Long Island Fair by volunteering, exhibiting, or demonstrating a traditional craft, please call the Fair Manager at ( 516) 572- 8406, or apply online at www. longislandfair. org.

We hope you had the opportunity to do and enjoy all the events you planned for the summer. Or, has the time slipped away and that list of things to do remain unfinished? There will be the summer of 2006, for now it is time to make way for the beautiful fall with its wonderful itinerary. The schedule for the society meetings for the months remaining in 2005 will be: September 28 - Architect Patricia Trifaro O'Neill will tell us about her winning design for the 9/ 11 memorial at Farmingdale State University. October 26 - The program will be about the Green Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn which we will co- sponsor with the Bethpage Library. November 16 - Harvest Moon Celebration which will be held at the United Methodist Church of Bethpage. Thursday, December 15, Holiday Party at the Bethpage Library. For more information call: Lenny Mulqueen - 935- 2674 or Ann Albertson - 933- 1795. September Program - The Central Park Historical Society is proud to introduce you to Architect Patricia Trifaro O'Neill. Patricia is prepared to share with you her anxieties and emotions she felt on September 11, 2001 as she waited for word that her husband, Thomas, was safe as she watched the events of that terrible morning knowing Tom was in tower # 2 at the World Trade Center. Tom was safe, but the impact of all the events reaches deep into ones being. The horror of that day and the impact it had on all our lives has become a part of who we are today. Pat took the opportunity to take all her feelings together with her talents and incorporated them into her winning design for the 9/ 11 Memorial which is to be built on the campus of Farmingdale State University. This site was chosen as it borders both Nassau and Suffolk County and it will honor those who gave their lives, acknowledge the many volunteers, a place to reflect and never forget the impact of 9/ 11. Pat grew up in Farmingdale, graduated Farmingdale High School and is proud her design was chosen for the memorial to be built in her home town. We are proud of her too. The second phase of this memorial project will be the renovation of Farmingdale State University's historic Cutler Hall into a resource center. A place for all who are interested in seeking information - Central about 9/ 11 and its aftermath. Join us, bring a friend all are invited to this timely program. Refreshments will be served. When: September 28, 2005 at 7: 30 pm. Where: Bethpage Library, Powell Avenue, Bethpage. It is great hearing from you - We thank Anne Merin for taking the time to put together her recollections of " Shopping in Bethpage." My first recollection of shopping here reverts back to 1925 when this area was called Central Park. My mother's cousin brought me here for cider at the cider mill. I assume that was Benkert's Cider Mill, located on the east side of Stewart Avenue south of the rail road tracks. Ten years later I returned to visit another relative, Joseph Katsur. He had the farm next to the Looney property, located on the former Grumman property, on the present South Oyster Bay Road. My purpose was to collect corn stalks to decorate Freeport High School for our Fall Dance that we named ' The Waffle Wiggle." At that time we never paid for anything, and that included the WPA Band we hired for the occasion. Those were Depression Days. It was in 1942 that I really began my shopping in Bethpage when I made Bethpage my home town and I commuted on the Long Island Rail Road. Each day, when I arrived home in Bethpage, I would head south to the post office to pick up my mail and pass Cava's Drug Store, Procida's Barber Shop and Al Bogner's Sweet Shop located on the corner of Broadway and Baldwin Place. I crossed that street to get to the post office on the south side of Baldwin Place. South of the post office was Russo's Department Store, ( Felice) Beauty Parlor, Felice's Tailor Shop and the Rectory of St. Martin of Tours Parish where Father Hartigan lived and where we held church affairs. That building later became the Hempstead Bank and is now occupied by the St. Vincent De Paul Society. I patronized another beauty shop across from the railroad station owned by Ruth Maxey. Next to the beauty shop was the library with Mrs. Fredericks as librarian. On the west side of Broadway at the corner of Central Park Avenue lived Harry Stolz, our insurance broker. His home later became the second convent for St. Martin's parish. The first convent was located across the street in the Sengstacken's home. On the south eastern part of Broadway I shopped at Klingelhoeffe's Meat Market. Traffic Study Findings lives have been lost and hearts have been broken in the interim It is our hope that these improvements will help to save lives and will make for a much safer community. ( Continued from page 1) If you have any questions about this project please contact Legislator Edward Mangano at 571- 6217 or the Nassau County Department of Public Works at 571- 9600. Historical Society Update Margaret and Ray Asher's Hardware Store ( now the Bethpage Tool and Hardware Store) Geffken's Delicatessen. The building next to the railroad tracks was Hayes Inn or the former Colonial Inn. Northeast of the railroad tracks was Kessler's Glass Factory replaced now by CVS Pharmacy. The present Doyle's Insurance Agency, was the location of one of the many taverns in our town. I understand Charlotte Miller owned it. Fortsch Meat Market and Grocery Store was next. On the same side of the street, set back, was Gagliardo's Dress Factory. Across the street there were several stores: Triple A Grocery Store owned by Jimmy Marrone and a Butcher Shop owned by Frank Marrone. Next was John Maggi's Shore Repair and then the Ralston Store. On the corner was Maggi's tavern ( now Who Ville) frequented by the soldiers stationed nearby at a military base located north of Cherry Avenue and west of the Seaford Oyster Bay Expressway. On the very next block, crossing over Benkert Street, lived Dr. Louis Luttge, our only town Physician, no dentist, no banking facility and no movie house at that time. However, Grumman Aircraft had moved here from Farmingdale in 1936 and that became our main industry. Godfrey's Farm Supply, on the corner of Central Park Avenue and Stewart Avenue on the south side, became a grocery store and another meat market. Across the street on Central Park Avenue was another tavern, called Deubels, where one could get lobster tails for a nickel a piece late on Friday night ( that information was passed on to Anne from her husband Sam). I do recall three restaurants, the historic Beau Sejour, Anselmi's on north Broadway ( north of the middle school today), the Five Comers on the Hempstead Turnpike and Stewart Avenue. Coming from the incorporated village of Freeport, shopping here was a challenge, however, I really enjoyed being part of this fine community for 63 years! Thank you Anne, for your very interesting tour through Bethpage, Our Town, of yesteryear. I received the following correspondence from Rose Greco Shackleton: " I love reading about Bethpage way back when. I do believe Mildred Gifford Jaisle is correct, that is me in the kindergarten picture. I was born, raised, married and raised three daughters and still live in Bethpage. My husband became one of the first mailmen ( letter carriers) when home delivery began, which I believe, was in 1949? Reading your column brings back such great memories. Ernie Finamore tells it all so well. I do also remember Mildred Gifford was one talented tap dancer. Thanks for the memories." We thank you Rose for taking the time to share your memories with us. We do remember your husband, Bob, as our very own " Merry Mail Man." Ground Breaking for the Francis X. Pendl Nassau County Firefighters Museum and Education Center - Members of our society were proud to attend the official Ground Breaking Ceremony for the Francis X. Pendl Nassau County Firefighters Museum and Education Center which will be located adjacent to the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Uniondale. Francis " Frank" X. Pendl, along with senior members of the County's Volunteer Fire Service, knew the importance of acting now if they wanted to preserve the tradition and history of the County's Volunteer Fire Service. At the same time, Frank valued education. The education center will provide the opportunity to teach the general public the importance of fire safety and the respect of fire. A mission Frank actively participated in his 50 plus years as an active member and Chief of the Bethpage Fire Department, as Assistant Chief Instructor at the Fire Service Academy in Old Bethpage, employed as a Nassau County Fire Marshal, and known as " Fireman Frank" to the many school children he taught the basics of fire safety and to stop, drop and roll. Sadly, Frank passed away on April 1, 2004, as preparations were being made to name the museum in I his honor. Now, on August 9, 2005, volunteer firefighters, elected officials, contributors to the museum, family and friends gathered on a beautiful summer evening to make the museum and education center official by the breaking of the ground. Mary Jane, Frank's wife of over 50 years, did the honor of leading the assembly with the salute to the flag and assisted in the traditional breaking of the ground. A well deserved tribute and honor to our deceased member, Frank Pendl. September Days - Labor Day, September 5, a day we celebrate and honor the value of a good days work and the dignity of the worker. Grumman, at one time, was the largest employer on Long Island. What made Grumman a special place to work was the value that was put on the worker. During the years of Grumman's growth and development, Grumman remained an open shop. Management encouraged a good working relationship between the engineer and the shop mechanic. A relationship which held a respect for the talents and expertise of each worker. At the same time, an effort was made to fit the job to the man where success is shaped rather than failure. This practiced philosophy made Grumman a unique industrial enterprise and a great place to work. Labor Day is a good time to think about the following: • Remember to serve those who you expect to serve you. • Never consider a person inferior, at the same time, recognize limitation of others and support them so they can experience success. • Lead by action and example. • Be humble when speaking about your accomplishments. • Teach and be taught. • Attack unfairness. • Believe employees must prosper if you are to prosper. • Seek the truth. • Forgive honest mistakes. • Pray for guidance on decisions that will affect others. 9/ 11 - A day to remember all who have been touched by the events of that day. A time to pray for our great country and all our men and women who continue to fight for the dignity and freedom which we, as Americans, hold dear. The Town of Oyster Bay will be dedicating a memorial on Saturday, September 10th at 11 a. m., at Tobay Beach, in memory of all who perished on 9/ 11/ 2001 from our Town of Oyster Bay. The location was chosen as there is a direct line of vision to where the Twin Towers once stood.

LU o Q_ BETHPAGE VARSITY KICKLINE FUNDRAISER Pocketbook Party Thursday September 29 7- 9: 30pm Century 21 Metro 322 Broadway, Bethpage Help raise funds so that the girls can go to the National Championships in Florida in March Imparting Some Wisdom on Youngsters through CALM Mike Reich, a member of the Bethpage High School Class of 2003, returned to Central Boulevard Elementary School last spring to teach the drums to third graders through the CALM program. Students display tribal African masks they created through the CALM program. Last year, the Bethpage School District implemented an after- school program called CALM ( Culture, Art, Language, and Music) that gave young students a glimpse of life outside of their home town; all away around the globe. Funded by the District's educational partner, Northport/ Grumman, the CALM program brought Bethpage High School Student Civic Association members to elementary schools to teach third graders about different languages, art, and music of cultures from around the world. Throughout last year, the students explored places such as Italy, Spain, Africa, Eastern Europe and the Far East. Under the direction of Student Civic Association advisor Jackie Jill- Rito, the students volunteered their time to teach third graders language, taste Jbods, and listen to music from these, and many other regions, in small group settings. The program even brought volunteers from outside the school, such as alumnus Mike Reich, a former Bethpage Student Civic member and a Class of 2003 graduate. Mike returned to Central Boulevard Elementary School this past June to teach youngsters how to play the bongo drums. The children also created and colored masks to replicate those worn by African tribes and wore them as they learned to play. " It's nice to be able to return, give something back to the schools. The CALM program teaches kids about different ways of life, and just as important, they learn a skill, " said Mike, who teaches the drums professionally as well.

I was prepared and was able to work around the late start and the ticket prices were not a problem. I was not prepared for how boring and miffed the crowd was with her selfish late start and because of this my positive attitude was wasted. Most people bought their tickets before word got out on her tardiness. Perfectionist she is NOT.
2 hours 40 minute wait to see her highness...that's just rude. Madonna should remember her manners. I never would purchase tickets to see anyone who's show started at 10:40 pm
Good opening act. She came out 2 and a half hrs late. She played FOUR old songs and the rest was new stuff!! She then tried promoting her political choice and was loudly BOOED! Leave that prop of a guitar and your political views backstage and SING your hits!! We felt ripped off. Shame on you "Material Girl".
So disappointed in the cancellation of the first Dallas show. How in the world can you recover from EXTREME laryngitis and play the very next night? Understandable this happens, but so disappointed. SHe hasn't toured here in 20 plus years and probably won't again.....

I am a baffled observer of the world around us; a satirist, poet, editor and researcher; a food pornographer; an ambitious but average drummer with a penchant for tabloid headlines, from H-Town, Texas, of course. Life-long dream: swim with the sharks.
These are my collected ramblings; an online compendium of utter nonsense, comprising art, culture, poetry, photography, technology and the newsworthy, arcane and inane.

About the Model JG2E
James Galway has built a legacy as a renowned flutist performing for dignitaries and audiences around the world. Sir James partnered with Conn-Selmer to create superior playing instruments that would carry his name for advancing flutists. The JG2E flute offers students the high quality of a USA made instrument and a full rich tone from the Galway designed headjoint.
The emerald jeweled crown and reversed beading on the tenons add elegance to the flute and makes it stand apart from the rest!
The delrin plastic flute plug offers a longer lifespan than traditional cork and will not fluctuate in humidity or temperature changes.
The headjoint was designed in collaboration with Sir James and the squarer, more undercut embouchure hole provides a rich, full tone and superior air flow for developing students.
Open hole keys provide students the ability to develop and progress into a higher level of playing, encourages proper hand position and provides more clarity in tone.
The offset G key follows the natural contour of student's hands and makes playing more comfortable.
The split E mechanism makes the third octave E natural easier to play and speak more clearly.
Signature CNC key cups ensure that pads will seat perfectly flat which prevents air leaks.
Bottom adjusting screws provide a sleeker, more professional look.
Built in Elkhart, Indiana, the JG2E flute is designed to inspire students to play and provide a fun, positive experience.

A cataract is a clouding of the eye's lens. It leads to decreased vision. The lens of the eye focuses an image onto the retina at the back of the eye. This is where an image is processed, and then sent to the brain.
As the cataract matures, it often causes glare, and decreased vision, contrast, and color sensitivity.

The lens of the eye is made of mostly water and protein. The protein is arranged in a way that keeps the lens clear so light can pass through it. A cataract forms when some of the protein clumps together and starts to cloud an area of the lens. A cataract won't spread from one eye to the other, although most people develop cataracts in both eyes at similar times.
There are several causes of cataracts, including:
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition.
Risk factors for cataracts include:
When a cataract is in the early stages, you may not notice any changes in your vision. Cataracts tend to mature slowly. Vision gets worse gradually. Some people with a cataract find that their close-up vision suddenly improves. This is only temporary. Vision is likely to get worse as the cataract becomes cloudier. Because the decrease in vision is gradual, many people do not realize that they have a cataract until it is discovered during a routine eye examination.
Symptoms include:
These symptoms can also be signs of other eye problems. If you have any of these symptoms, check with your eye care professional immediately.
Although you might think you have a cataract, the only way to know for sure is to have an eye examination. To detect a cataract, an ophthalmologist or optometrist examines the lens and may do other tests to learn more about the structure and health of your eye.
For an early cataract, vision may be improved by using different eyeglasses, magnifying lenses, or stronger lighting. If these measures don't help, or if vision loss interferes with daily activities such as driving, reading, or watching TV, surgery is the only effective treatment.
Cataract surgery is almost never an emergency. Therefore, in most cases, waiting until you are ready to have cataract surgery will not harm your eye. However, your cataract will only get cloudier with time.
Cataract surgery is almost always performed in one eye at a time. After the cloudy lens is removed, the eye surgeon (ophthalmologist) places an intraocular lens (IOL) in its place. An IOL is a clear lens that requires no care and becomes a permanent part of your eye.
After cataract surgery, most people need reading glasses, and many people need glasses for distance vision. There is a relatively new option, multifocal intraocular lenses, which focus for both near and far distances in the same lens. Many patients who receive multifocal intraocular lenses see well at both a distance and nearby without glasses.
Although every surgery has risks, the majority of patients who have cataract surgery have better vision afterward.
If you are diagnosed with cataracts, follow your doctor's instructions.
Although there is no way to completely prevent cataracts, the following precautions may help:
It is also important to get a comprehensive eye examination regularly. Since vision problems increase with age, if you are aged 60 or older, you should have a comprehensive eye examination once a year.
