I've written two reviews in my life ... this one and for Cold Fusion, both are amazing!!! I have been using Evening Repair now for about one month and after the first night, my skin looks unbelievable! I have very oily skin, very prone to breakouts ... and rough texture, due to use of so many different products out there for oily/problem skin. I've spent thousands and thousands of dollars over the years and nothing ever works. However, I took a chance on this because Perricone has never let me down before and I trust the quality of his products. In combination with the Nutritive Cleanser, this stuff has changed my skin ... overnight, seriously! My pores are practically gone, absolutely no break outs ... skin is soft, smooth and redness gone! My skin looks better than it has in 20+ years. Whenever I've applied anything topical, all mosturizers, etc .. I break out. So, I basically found myself cleansing my skin and never using anything else just to avoid breakouts. Not anymore! I can NOT believe how my skin feels and looks ... and so quickly, with no adverse effects. If you are tired of wasting your money on broken skin promises, you must try this. I've never been complimented on my skin, ever. I recently was and could only smile in response ... a first for me. Try this!

I am sure that this a great product because I love Perricone's other products, however, this product has a very strong "perfumey" smell. I couldn't even put it on my face. I LOVE the Evening Facial Emollient. So if you don't like a strong perfume smell go with the Evening Facial Emollient, it is fantastic.

High Potency Formula
By Pinky
from Maryland
Comments about Perricone MD High Potency Evening Repair:
I really love Dr. Perricone's products but the High Potency Evening Repair is too potent for my skin. It leaves my cheeks red. So for those with similar skin types I would try the Vitamin C Ester internally and externally which is more conducive to sensitive skin types. It's too bad Dr. Perricone doesn't have a skin tighening instrument to supplement his products especially for those of us with tendencies to get pink and red from DMAE and Alpha Lipoic Acid.
Amazing Treatment
By Imboslice
from West Palm Beach, FL
After cleansing with Gentle Cleanser, I apply High Potency Evening Repair and I absolutely love using this product. Just applying it makes me happy. It has great ingredients like DMAE, Alpha Lipoid Acid and Retinol. I have oily skin that can break out sometimes and when I have a bottle of this product, my skin always looks flawless. I wish I had gallons of it! No joke!

Great Product .
By Deb the Dreamer
from Ft Worth, TX
I tried this product because I have some loss of firmness around my eyes and mouth. This product worked better than I expected, it was great. It made my face feel soft and looked better than it has in years.I feel I have the skin issues that a lot of women have. Loss of firmess around eyes, jawline, mouth(couple of deep wrinkles around the lip area) and nose to mouth. I was pleased with this product and very much wanted to include the Amine Complex but could not afford it. Dr Perricone if you need a model let me know. If you can correct my issues you will have a greater following than you already have. Thanks for great skin care.

Changed my life
By Bre
from Brooklyn, NY
I use this product every night as directed. In about a week, my face felt smooth to the touch and it slowly began to even out my skin tone. I am almost two months into my skin care regimen and I have experienced a complete transformation that even my husband notices. I don't ever remember having such youthful skin since before puberty. I thought it would fail like the countless other products that I have tried, but it was amazing. The best part is that it has helped curb my hormonal breakouts. I am a customer for life.

Banned in Boston?
Not quite, but we have been blocked at the Air Staff, at Langley AFB, and at MacDill, Hickam, and every other Air Force installation.
After posting our special report on last year's nuclear accident at Minot AFB, In From the Cold (apparently) became blog non grata for the Air Force. We received a flurry of e-mails Monday morning, notifying us that our blog could no longer be accessed from office computers at various Air Force bases.
Fine by us--the service invested a lot of dough in its IT network, and they can block whatever they want. I suppose there's a certain badge of infamy in joining the ranks of various porn sites, on-line casinos and various other outlets deemed inappropriate for our boys and girls in blue.
But we find the decision more than a bit ironic. So does veteran investigative reporter Susan Katz-Keating, who noted at her blog:
The series is not a hit job on the USAF. It is the product of meticulous, thoughtful reporting aimed at shedding much needed light. Seriously: We don't want to lose control of any of our nukes, ever. We need to learn from what happened at Minot. This report helps us do that.
That was our certainly our intent. Our Minot series is based on detailed interviews with various experts, including one of the service's most experienced nuclear weapons technicians, who has more than three decades of experience in that demanding career field. That source's reputation as a leader, manager and straight shooter is above reproach.
We should also note that our report does not contain any classified information. That was one of our ground rules in researching the series. As we've observed on numerous occasions, there are secrets that must be kept, even in a democracy. Some of those secrets involve the operational details our our nuclear weapons arsenal. Readers will find that our discussion of the actual incident--in terms of weapons and aircraft--was limited to what the Air Force has publicly disclosed.
And, for the record, we have never served with any of the key personalities involved in the Minot episode. So, the series isn't about settling old scores, or trying to make someone look bad.
Instead, the Minot story is one of human and system failings that triggered one of the nation's worst nuclear weapons mishaps. Those are the types of errors that (in our judgment) the public has a right to know about. More importantly, as Ms. Katz-Keating occurs, there is an opportunity to learn from this incident, and (hopefully) minimize the chances for similar accidents in the future.
In tomorrow's final installment of the series, we'll examine the long-term fallout from the mishap, and it's potential impact on the nation's security. As in previous articles, we will make every effort to present an objective assessment of the incident, based on what has been revealed so far.
For that, we make no apologies--even if it keeps us on the "blocked" list.

An Excerpt from Murder on Fifth Avenue
From the tenements to the town houses of nineteenth-century New York, midwife Sarah Brandt and Detective Sergeant Frank Malloy never waiver in their mission to aid the innocent and apprehend the guilty. Now, the latest novel in the Edgar®-nominated series finds Sarah and Malloy investigating the murder of a Knickerbocker club member who was made to pay his dues… A Gaslight Mystery Sarah Brandt's family is one of the oldest in New York City, and her father, Felix Decker, takes his position in society very seriously. He still refuses to resign himself to his daughter being involved with an Irish Catholic police detective. But when a member of his private club—the very exclusive Knickerbocker—is murdered, Decker forms an uneasy alliance with Detective Sergeant Frank Malloy to solve the crime as discreetly as possible. Malloy soon discovers that despite his social standing, the deceased—Chilton Devries—was no gentleman. In fact, he's left behind his own unofficial club of sorts, populated by everyone who despised him. As he and Sarah sort through the suspects, it becomes clear to her that her father is evaluating more than the detective's investigative abilities, and that, on a personal level, there is much more at stake for Malloy than discovering who revoked Devries' membership—permanently. |

MONTVALE, N.J., Oct. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The first of the new-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class model line, the 2014 S550, debuts today at dealerships across the country and on network television as part of an integrated marketing launch.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100901/NY58315LOGO)
Long heralded as the benchmark innovator for luxury sedans, the flagship S-Class cradles its occupants with the latest in luxury -- including a hot-stone massage -- while providing the most sophisticated accident-avoidance technology on the road today.
"The new S-Class represents the best of the Mercedes-Benz brand," said Bernie Glaser, vice president of marketing for Mercedes-Benz USA. "The strides we make in the areas of design, safety, engineering and technology -- which are pioneered on the new S-Class -- will make their way through all our models and eventually into the mainstream. This is what has happened throughout our 127 years, and as a result, there's hardly a car on the road today that doesn't owe some of its technology to that constant commitment to innovate and to lead."
The campaign, which was created by Merkley+Partners (NYC), launches today with two cornerstone broadcast ads. The first, a :60 spot called "Four Words,"explores the origins of the company's storied tagline "The Best or Nothing." Transporting the viewer back in time through the 127-year history of Mercedes-Benz, the ad starts inside Gottlieb Daimler's garage, where the very first automobile was made, then proceeds past the historic Silver Arrow race cars inside the Mercedes-Benz museum in Stuttgart, through design centers, crash facilities, race tracks and more. The ad illustrates how those four simple words written by the founder have challenged Mercedes-Benz to "inspire, provoke and push," and ends heralding the 2014 S-Class as "our entire automotive philosophy set in motion. Again."
The companion ad, a :30 spot called "Control," conveys what makes the S-Class driving experience "a new era of innovation." The ad takes the viewer along for a nighttime drive through towering cityscapes while showcasing the car's unique occupant amenities. From a hot stone massage, to interior lighting available in seven colors and even a cabin fragrance system that perfumes the air with a favorite scent, these innovative features illustrate the S-Class as "The highest expression of Mercedes-Benz."
Both ads go into rotation today on national talk shows ("Today," "Nightline," "Letterman," "Jimmy Fallon"), national broadcast (ABC, CBS, NBC), cable channels (including Discovery, History, National Geographic, Travel Channel, Golf Channel) and a variety of business and sports outlets. The spots will also air on such programming as "Modern Family," "Dancing with the Stars," "Criminal Minds," "Elementary," "Face the Nation," "Meet the Press," "ESPN Monday Night Football" and "Sunday Night Football on NBC," among others. There will be additional rotation in spot markets.
A complementary print campaign oriented around the "It is our entire automotive philosophy set in motion" theme will appear in a centerspread insertion in the Wall Street Journal (October 16) and in such magazines as: Tennis Magazine, Conde Nast Traveler, Wine Spectator, Private Clubs, Executive Golfer, Architectural Digest, Town & Country, Veranda, Playbill, New Yorker, Black Enterprise, Harvard Business Review, Bloomberg Businessweek and Fortune. There will also be a targeted digital component.
About the S-ClassThe all-new 2014 S-Class brings new levels of luxury, technology and safety to market. On the inside, the S-Class is designed to appeal to all the senses. With an interior that features heated armrests ionized air purification via the AIR BALANCE PACKAGE, First Class rear-seat luxury, and a Burmester sound system, the S-Class pampers its occupants. Its fresh, sophisticated exterior design goes hand-in-hand with an intelligent suspension system called MAGIC BODY CONTROL, which sees the road ahead and adjusts the suspension accordingly.
On the safety front, Mercedes-Benz takes one step closer to its goal of accident-free driving, with a portfolio of more than 30 standard and optional active and passive safety technologies called Intelligent Drive. For example, the Driver Assistance Package, available in the 2014 S-Class and 2014 E-Class sedan, wagon, coupe and cabriolet, offers the following content:
Other Intelligent Drive safety features include Attention Assist and Night View Assist Plus with human and animal detection.
The high levels of technology, safety and comfort do not come at the expense of price or fuel efficiency. The new S-Class comes at a price comparable to the outgoing model (in fact, lower on an MSRP to MSRP basis) starting at $92,900 (excluding $925 destination/delivery charge). It will also be available in an all-wheel drive configuration, the S550 4MATIC, and in a high-performance AMG variant, the S63 AMG 4MATIC. Plus, with EPA ratings of 17 mpg city and 26 mpg highway, the 2014 S550 is more fuel efficient than the outgoing model.
Additional powertrain and body style variants of the S-Class will make their debuts throughout calendar year 2014.

Sheila Jordan and Steve Kuhn
(photo by Steven Sussman)
Vermont Jazz Center director Eugene Uman told an SRO house a month ago that Sheila Jordan had often asked him to book her with Steve Kuhn. But once Sheila took the stage, the VJO perennial clarified that what she'd actually said was, "Book Steve Kuhn! Solo, Duo, Trio, whatever. You've got to bring him in." As it happened, it was the duo of Jordan and Kuhn that finally brought the great pianist to Brattleboro, and the date gave cause for double celebration as March 24 was Kuhn's 74th birthday.
The 83-year-old Jordan has a gift for establishing an intimate rapport with musicians, which is not surprising for a singer whom Charlie Parker hailed for having "million-dollar ears." The intensely personal style she brings to standards and her own tunes is often enhanced by the duo setting she's specialized in with bass players Steve Swallow, Harvie Swartz, Arild Anderson, and Cameron Brown. But she also shares a substantial legacy with Kuhn, and the VJC concert underscored once again that he's her ideal collaborator. (You can see for yourself tomorrow night at the Artists Collective in Hartford where Jordan and Kuhn, along with bassist Steve LaSpina and drummer Billy Drummond, will be in concert.)
(Steve Kuhn, Eugene Uman, Sheila Jordan/Photos by Steven Sussman)
Jordan and Kuhn's association goes back to the early '60's when they played occasionally around New York. At the time, Jordan worked as a secretary at a Madison Avenue ad agency while raising her daughter Traci, who was born to Sheila and her husband Duke Jordan in 1955. She was an insider on the jazz scene in her native Detroit and New York before she established a wider reputation as a singer, but that began to change a half-century ago with two landmark recordings, Portrait of Sheila, her 1962 debut and the first session that Blue Note Records ever produced on a singer, and pianist George Russell's The Outer View, where she sang "You Are My Sunshine" like no one before or since. At the VJC, Jordan recalled traveling with Russell and Ornette Coleman in George's green VW Beetle to the wedding of Abbey Lincoln and Max Roach before she sang Abbey's original, "Bird Alone."
Sheila makes no secret of her youthful adoration of Parker, going so far as to say that she married Duke Jordan just to get closer to Bird, and it's Parker and Billie Holiday who are at the core of her art. She says, "tongue-in-cheek," that Parker composed "Chasin' the Bird" for her, but the title applies equally to a world of obsessive ornithologists. When Jordan sang his great original, "Confirmation," at the VJC, her scatted choruses of familiar bebop phrases rang like a Litany of the Saints; Sts. Bud and Bird, Diz and Monk, Miles and Sonny Rollins, that is.
What sets Jordan apart from most singers, and makes her an endangered species, is that she's got a story to tell, and she's found a way to frame her narrative in the context of the jazz tradition itself. Jordan was raised in poverty, and she's been through the ringer of alcoholism: her own, her mother's, and her maternal grandparents who raised her in Pennsylvania coal mining country. She paid dues as a teen hanging out and "growing up" with Tommy Flanagan, Barry Harris, Kenny Burrell and other black musicians in Detroit; as a white woman in an interracial marriage; and as the mother of a bi-racial daughter. Jordan tells the story of encountering a woman on a New York City bus who wondered, "Where did you get your baby?" Jordan tartly replied, "The same place you got yours!"
Sheila's not kidding when says that jazz "saved her life." It gave her a sense of direction, a voice, and a set of values to live by, but alcoholism began to take these away until she had a "spiritual awakening" that came in the form of a voice saying, "I gave you a gift. If you don't use it well, I'm going to take it from you and give it to someone else." Jordan got sober, and for the last 26 years she's honored the gift both with her singing and the personable way she has of greeting listeners with a knowing sense that someone else's life may be saved by the music too.

Steve Kuhn's got his own story to tell, and you can hear an hour of it in this expansive interview that I conducted with him in 2004. At the VJC, he played two solo pieces in the opening set, hammering out a surprisingly bluesy take on "Emily," and an expansive rendition of "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes," the movie theme associated in jazz with John Coltrane. Kuhn was a charter member of Coltrane's first quartet in 1960, and in our conversation he recalls phoning Coltrane out of the blue when he heard the saxophonist had left Miles Davis. They got together to play a couple of times, then Trane stunned Kuhn with a return call that began, "Would $135 a week be OK to start?" Kuhn says, "I'll never forget that. 'Oh my God,' I said. I went nuts. I couldn't believe it."
As it happened, Coltrane had already made arrangements for McCoy Tyner to join the quartet once his contract with The Jazztet expired, so Kuhn was essentially an unsuspecting "sort of stop-gap." Still, he allows that while the two months he spent with Coltrane at the Jazz Gallery "[were] incredible, I was not happy with my own playing, 'cause I was still looking for a voice and I didn't quite know what to do behind him." He asked Trane for direction, but was told, "I can't tell you how to play, I respect you as a musician, and I won't tell you how to play." Once Tyner joined the group Kuhn understood that what Trane wanted was "more of a carpet off which to spring," whereas Kuhn had tried to "get out there with him and challenge him, and that's not what he wanted from a pianist."
One of the vivid memories Kuhn carries from the Jazz Gallery engagement was the fervor that Coltrane's playing inspired in the audience. "It was electric," he says, "almost like a revival meeting. People would be getting up on their chairs in the middle of his solos. Unforgettable!" In Brattleboro, Kuhn's performance of "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes" recalled Coltrane with its incantatory feeling and its swift transitions between chordal and modal harmony.
After Coltrane, Kuhn went on to play with an illustrious succession of combos led by Kenny Dorham, Stan Getz, and Art Farmer. Following a period in which he lived in Stockholm in the late '60's and early '70's, he returned to the States and formed the Steve Kuhn Quartet. Kuhn had begun composing lyrics to some of his pieces and invited Sheila to join him, but not in a conventional singer-piano trio format. "She didn't want that, and I didn't want that either," Kuhn explains. Instead, Jordan functioned more as an instrumental voice in the quartet, honing her skills at both scat singing and in working with forms outside the standard 32 and 12 bar formats. I fondly remember seeing the group on a few occasions, and the uncanny knack that Sheila had for conjuring Miles Davis by dramatically arching her back and holding the mike in a pose that recalled an iconic image of the trumpeter as she sang his bebop classic, "Little Willie Leaps." When I spoke with Jordan this afternoon, she said that "Miles must have been in the room."

Kuhn has just released a new CD on ECM entitled Wisteria, which is named for an Art Farmer ballad he plays here with bassist Steve Swallow and drummer Joey Baron. Kuhn and Swallow worked with Farmer in the mid-'60's, but "Wisteria" comes from the 1953 Early Art session with Horace Silver and wasn't in the trumpeter's mid-60's repertoire, so it appears here as a kind of defacto tribute to their former employer. Kuhn has enjoyed long associations with Swallow and Baron, but this is the first time they've worked together as a trio, and they'll be at Birdland for a few nights beginning May 8. Wisteria features a half-dozen Kuhn originals, and three by Swallow, who Steve says has "written some great songs, in my view." When I spoke with Kuhn today, he said that Swallow has been "like the brother I never had, although we hardly see each other." Still, he's been there at crucial times.
"In 1969, we were in Paris doing a trio recording with Aldo Romano called Childhood Is Forever, which was the last record on which Steve played acoustic bass," he says. When Kuhn expressed frustration about having played "everything in the repertoire," he said, "Swallow got on my case big time about writing. 'You gotta write, you gotta write, you gotta write,' he kept saying. So, when I returned to Stockholm, I started to write, and I wrote a group of about twelve or thirteen songs in a couple of months, which for me was really unheard of, and some of those songs had words. Well, in any case, he's been a very positive influence for me, and I love him dearly."
Kuhn says the same about Jordan, who's "like my big sister." He says the singer has "nothing to prove. When we first worked together she was a little insecure, but over the years she's gotten stronger and stronger. Nothing's pretentious, nothing's forced. And at her age, to me she's singing better that I've ever heard her…She's like a freak of nature. I really can't believe it. But it's really nice to share the stage with her, and to watch her hold court."
(NEA Jazz Masters Jack DeJohnette, Sheila Jordan, Jimmy Owens)
Jordan was recently named an NEA Jazz Master, an honor long-deserved, and as rumors persist that the NEA will soon abandon this custom, it's a recognition that came not a moment too soon. Feel free to congratulate Sheila when you see her and Steve tomorrow night in the house that Jackie and Dolly McLean built in Hartford's North End. Sheila says that in the lead-up to the concert and tomorrow afternoon's master class at the Artists Collective, "I've never been treated so well, so respectfully, so royally. It's as though nothing's too good." Leave it to the family of her late "kiddo" friend Jackie McLean to know how to treat a peer.
steve kuhn interview
Great interview, Tom. Love to hear more like this. Your questions are knowledgable, of course--and Kuhn is loquacious--so it's a good fit. How is it you came to conduct these interviews you've posted from time to time and how have these interviews been applied?

In America, children are introduced to capitalism at a young age.
At home, kids tap moneybag tokens around cardboard games like Monopoly to dominate the housing market and possess the illustrious Boardwalk. At school, children work through math problems where little Jimmy wants to buy a cookie for $2, but only has nickels, dimes and pennies to make up the total.
From the time we can take money in one hand and exchange something in the other, we are economic profiteers. It's in our blood.
And, in reality, there's probably no better example of a child capitalist at work than the entrepreneurial 8-year-old selling lemonade for a couple of quarters on a hot summer day. It's the stereotypical image of a young boy or girl putting way too much sugar and far too little ice in a partially homemade batch of concentrated Country Time lemon squeeze.
Fast forward 40 years, and those grassroot principles are still at work at flea markets and swap meets around the nation. It is average adults selling their personal goods to make a couple of bucks on the side. Only, as adults, their profits help pay for a little more than a new pack of baseball cards or brand new Nerf gun.
In our area, these grown-up lemonade salesmen gather each Thursday at the American Legion Fairgrounds in Newton. Citizens inside, and out, of the county polish their best coin collections and harvest their ripest green and red peppers for the all-day event. It's like a once-a-week state fair without the rides or country ham biscuits.
Last week, among the many that flocked to the market, was Jackie Wilson. Wilson, along with his wife, sell their homegrown crops at the market from time to time – offering fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes and squash for a couple of bucks a pound.
Sitting on a white and plastic porch chair underneath a tent, Wilson carefully weighed the vegetables on a scale to his left. He wore a plain black T-shirt with pressed blue jeans and boots. All he needed was a cowboy hat that said "manifest destiny" on it, and he would fit the classic cowboy persona created more than a century ago.
After an introduction and friendly chatter, it was time to see how this aged local felt about the times. It only took one mention of the word economy to have Wilson thoroughly explain how those lemonade-stand values America is known for have slowly faded away.
"America has sold out – you show me where she ain't," Wilson said, pointing his finger across the world at the Chinamen and overseas merchants the United States bargains with daily.
Wilson said the increasing cost of gas, fertilizer and seed make it hard on the farmers and "poor man" in the nation, saying he'd go broke if he tried to rely on farming alone to make a living.
"They might get the poor man down on his knees, but he's going to get back up," Wilson said. "The poor man is going to survive."
Wilson talked with me for more than 30 minutes about the state of the nation, not double-thinking his thoughts once. It was one of the only times on the job where someone has truly spoken their mind to me with no filter. Wilson didn't care about being politically correct or withholding information – he spoke his mind and offered solutions. I respect that.
And sure, Wilson may not have the best answers – neither do I. But maybe with a little more conversation, without all the politics, we can get somewhere other than the middle of a seemingly bottomless pit of debt. So, in the future, my kids can take their moneybag tokens and turn them into a reality.

YOUR OFFICIAL HOMETOWN NEWSPAPER Serving Bethpage, Island Trees, Plainedge, Seaford, Old Bethpage and Plainview VOL. 24 NO. 21 April 26-May 2, 1991 25 CENTS AN EAGLE FLIES Eagle and 3 New Fire Vehicles Dedicated ^fA '*f***^ - - « . w « * »M r^fi,»>^»p^ • *-*' ' I f f^ '*'**^ ,.,«• ^ , . T^^ On Sunday April 21, the Bethpage Fire Department had an impressive dedication ceremony with the addition of 3 new fire fighting vehicles and a proud eagle which is displayed on the front of the fire house. The eagle which stands an impressive 5 feet tall by 11 feet wide, was donated by Chase Bank in Bethpage and has quite a remarkable history. In 1974 Chase Bank, then called Seaman's Bank commissioned an artist from Massachusetts to carve the eagle. He made it out of teak wood and a very special and expensive wood imported from the Philippines. After many years the eagle began to show signs of wear and tear and actually began to rot. It was at that time that the banking facility commissioned a company to create a mold of the eagle and create a replica out of fiberglass. This replica which is the only copy of the original rendering is the one that now flies proudly over our firehouse. The original carving has been put to rest in a museum in Massachusetts. John C. Wagner, Jr. who was Vice President of Chase Bank at that time, but since has been transfered to a different branch, was present for the dedication along with his wife and children. He told the crowd about the eagle's historical past and said that there is not a more deserving or appropriate place for her to lly. He thanked Jim Comerford of the Bethpage F-^irc Department lor helping him find such a fitting home for the eagle. 1 he next unveiling of sorts was the christening of 3 brand new fire lightinii vehicles which will be added lo the lire deparinicnis existing 10 lire trucks, 3 ambulances and 4 chief cars. Two pumper engines boasting the slogan "Some Like It Hot" were proudly displayed at the ceremony. Each pumper engine has a cost of between $250,000 - $300,000 and has a life span of about 20-30 years. The other vehicle which was added to this impressive fleet was a Rescue Van which is a heavy recsue vehicle and incident command post which costs $350,000. This van replaces the 1968 model which was being used. Chief Brian Durr who offciated at the ceremony said that the additon of these three vehicles will not only enable the fire department to serve the community better but also has provided Bethpage with the most state of the art equipment in Nassau County. The Rescue Van was dedicated to the memory of the late Fire Commissioner Al Castaldi whose wife Stella attended the ceremony. Durr went on to thank our Fire Commissioners and Chiefs and Past Chiefs as well as all those who worked so hard on truck committees to enable the vehicles to be purchased. The ceremony concluded with the actual breaking of champagne bottles over the vehicles bumpers as well as the blessing of the trucks by newly appointed Fire Department Chaplain Father Pi/iano. Congratulations to the entire Bethpage Fire Department. May the newest additions lo their impressive lleet keep them as well as our coni-munilv sale for man\ years to come.

An Rl FS determines the nature and extent i)l contamination associated with a site, explores clean-up alternatives, and recommends owe of these tor implementation. The responsiveness summary, can be read at the Bethpage Public Library, 47 Powell Avenue, in Bethpage, but is being printed in its entirely below so that residents can have their own copy. The public is encouraged to read the summary. You are weleome to coniac! NYSDEC Citizen Participation Specialist Joshua Fpslein al NYSDIX-Stony Brook (751-7900, Ext. 343, 399) for further information about the repositories. RESPONSIVENESS SUMMARY Grumman RI/FS - Public Comment There were several significant i.ssues raised during the December 4. 1990 public meeting held at the Bethpage High School as well as in the letters the Department received subsequent to the meeting. I hese issues include: - off-site investigations, length of the project schedule, annt)uncemem of the public meeting, and miscellaneous issues. The Department's responses to these issues are presented in the lolK)wing subsections. Off-Site Investigations In a June 2, 1989 letter from the Department to Cirumman, the Departmeiu requested that a ba.se map be prepared on which the locations of all private wells within a three-mile radius of the site are shown. I his was later amended to an area two miles north to three miles south of the center of the site. As a resuU of this request, Geraghty & Miller, Inc., on behalf of Cirumman, developed Figure 2 and Tables 1-3 of the Work Plan. The reason for the aforementioned Department request was that the Department needed a base map to u.se as a guide for determining what off-site work needed to be done. It has been the Department's position from the on-set of this project that off-site work will be required. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) and the Nassau County Health Department have conducted a groundwater study in the vicinity of the Grumman and Hooker, RUCO sites. Ii was suggested during the public meeting and in subsequent letters that the data generated during the UStJS study be used to design an off-site groundwater remedial (clean-up) program which could be implemented immediately. While it appears that the existing data is extensive, it is insufficient lo develop a remedial program al this lime.
