A gift of Time 

Meals on Wheels, a not for profit program administered by the Visiting Nurse Association of LI, Inc., is dedicated to delivering nutritious meals to qualified homebound seniors.  We are in need of individuals interested in the rewarding experience of delivering meals to our clients.  Less than two hours per week is necessary to pickup meals from a local hospital and deliver them to our seniors.  Please contact 516-739-1292 to become one of our valuable volunteers.

@Marcy we have been contacting everyone we can to get Rescue Ink audited. That's all we want. Just…Read More have them account for all the money they take in (much of it cash) from their fundraisers where they sell merchandise, donations from all over the world, & other sources that give them money. Just have them show where all that money went. According to their 2011 tax return only $1800 or so out of $30,000.00 went to the care of the animals. Where is all the money??? We just keep getting ignored. I realize that since all these storms & tornadoes happened a lot of fake non-profits have sprung up but we have been asking for an investigation of Rescue Ink for over two years to no avail. Now since JohnnyO has been arrested maybe the right authorities will be forced to investigate Rescue Ink. We're always hopeful.

The 2nd floor and above was not flooded. The building sits on sand and is wide open to the elements. The people I know have been paying their maintenance charges which included RE taxes. However, the need for more money to fix everything is more than they have on hand.

Building owners who don't pay their assessments must be foreclosed on, unless the Board makes other…Read More arrangements. The Board can choose other alternatives, like liens to be paid when the property is sold. It depends also on the by-laws that the owners signed when they purchased. The place appears to be a woefully mismanaged mess, if past performance is any indication. Who manages this place? Others should know so they can avoid the mistake of buying a place managed by this bunch.

some observations: one, applicable regulations for safety provide you cannot have mixed swimming…Read More and surfing beaches, so if the idea is to have both, you need to allocate. two, different beaches, because of bottom conditions, have very different waves -- ergo, the selection of beaches for surfing. three, on any given summer day with decent waves, and barely decent on a weekend, the number of surfers is dangerous. truly. I will not let my younger children surf/learn on those days. I won't even surf those days. four, on any given summer day, the number of people in the water, let alone actually swimming, is incredibly small in comparison to our total available beach real estate. five, as a general rule under this schedule, no swimmer should have to walk more than a few seconds to 2 minutes to be on a swimming beach. it is an allocation issue and not everyone is going to like the allocation, but that's often a part of the give and take of living in a community where resources are shared. folks who live near the train station have commuters parking in front of the their houses, sometimes with cars left for 2-3 days. similar for folks who live near the beach and can't get parking for themselves or at least their guests on a weekend. there are unbelievable issues with allocation of sports fields for practice and games. west-enders put up with bar traffic and a lot of other things. in any event, my two cents.
