There are approximately 15 million Americans with food
allergies and 6 million of them are children.
Food allergies cause 200,000 emergency room visits each year and are
life-threatening . There is no cure.
Join us to raise awareness, education and funding for
research on Sunday, October 14th at Eisenhower Park in East Meadow to Walk for
Food Allergies. Registration begins at
12:00 and the Walk starts at 1:00. It will be a fun afternoon with a carnival
area for smaller children, a video game bus for the teens and great raffles for
the adults. For more information on food
allergies and to register to walk go to www.foodallergy.org.

Long Beach does not need an economic development corp. Small business people already know these…Read More entities are patronage salary mills that do not help them similar to SBA disaster assistance loans or FEMA assistance for small business. Small businesses know where to get help and do not need to pay higher taxes for an entity that offers lip service and no financial help, or financial help only to Democrat party donator patrons.
Leonard Bauman May 24, 2013 at 01:18 pm
Yeah, I just got that garbage call around 1230 today and hung up after 30 seconds, that was not an…Read More emergency message. It was bleep, bleep, and more bleep!

Watching too. I want to try to be happy for NJ-- I'm really trying--but being homeless for 7 months…Read More with no return date in site and having a block that currently looks like Oklahoma somehow what is usually the most anticipated weekend for me is one of great sadness and depression. You can say all you want that LB is back (and for those that are I am truly happy) but please, please, don't exclude the fact in the media that many are not. We are not hearing those stories or seeing what is the reality for so many. Why isn't there photos of neighbors holding each other up while crying watching their houses getting bulldozed? Walking down my street to pick up my mail I see yet another home with 40 years of history just gone. Completely gone. I love that we are planting flowers to make the town look whole and I think it's important to tell that story as well but I am tired of the biased media and in fact, ashamed of most of it.

Saw a picture of the new boardwalk in Seaside Heights, its completed, open , incluidng the shops and…Read More beautiful. And we have nothing here.
Paul Carrella May 24, 2013 at 08:31 am
Rather have a boardwalk over collecting fines that will just be stolen.

Why not book at the Long Beach Hotel, call the operator to get the phone number. The new Long Beach…Read More Hotel is luxurious and only $149 a night centrally located in Long Beach's wealthy and well to do and uppity East End.

TRIVIA: Joseph Carlino, former Speaker of the NY State Assembly, gave a speech on the 5th…Read More Amendment at my high school graduation. His father was the Republican leader in Long Beach.

She will be questioned by kid gloved committee , and a back room deal will be made .Repukes get what…Read More they want and obama will fire her with a golden parachute ,end of story.This is America
Tideline May 23, 2013 at 12:04 pm
She also is still collecting a big paycheck for a job that she took the 5th on and would not answer…Read More any questions. She should be immediately suspended without pay. She won't she is protected by the Obama umbrella. I predict she will be recalled, since she made a statement and that negated her 5th protections. When she refuses again next time, she should be found in contempt of Congress.

Long Beach never even put the shelter up for bidding! I'm sure there were other groups that may have…Read More been interested in running the shelter but when the contract ran out they just resigned without putting it out there for anyone else to see.
Leonard Bauman May 23, 2013 at 09:27 pm
The victims are the poor defenseless cats and dogs in that shelter that Rescue Ink was using as…Read More donation pawns, giving the cats and dogs scrimps while spending the large spoils on their own selfish selves. Why can't the North Shore Animal League take over the shelter and make it a second adoption site to complement their location in Port Washington?
andy napolitano May 23, 2013 at 05:51 pm
Well lets see now. Long Beach has always been known as such a corrupt city why shouldn't them…Read More allowing these guys to illegally park their van anywhere they want come as such a surprise. Then to top it off let them open an animal shelter so they all can profit from it. I have lived in Long Beach for over 30 years & it has ALWAYS been known that city hall is not exactly on the up & up. So yeah I think we should be outraged at the City who allowed this to happen.And when this new scandel breaks wide open is everyone going to act so surprised? This is just the tip of the iceburg with this shelter & Rescue Ink.

This is economic cleansing by vulture capitalists ,Agenda 21 moving as planned

I spoke with the construction mgr who told me that the entire bsmt, 1 st flr were flooded and 2 feet…Read More of water onto the second floor. Foundation is sound, that is why they will be moving back in within 60 days. As bad as the damage looks, their financial picture seems even worse. Construction mgr did not seem to care about the owners situation, just finishing the work.
sun&sand May 23, 2013 at 07:05 am
The water flooded the first floor of apts. I am not sure if the entire foundation is sound--the…Read More building was built on sand and several of the pilings might have to be reinforced. 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.
Me May 22, 2013 at 10:46 am
Might actually be cheaper to buy a used RV. It doesn't need to really run or drive well. You can…Read More find them on craigslist for as little as $1,000 dollars. Even if you change aout all matresses, clean up etc you could be all in for only the cost of a month or two rent. Then you can re-sell, donate to charity or give it away free when done and no problem if construction runs long you own it.
andy napolitano May 23, 2013 at 03:34 pm
Just speculating that Schumer is buddies with Joe Panzarella & the shelter got finished while…Read More other places are still waiting. People can take what they want from that comment but it looks fishy.
andy napolitano May 23, 2013 at 08:26 am
Yeah I've seen all the pictures of Joe "Panz" Panzarella with Chuck Schumer. Rescue Ink…Read More gets their shelter back but so many other things that are more important are still not up & running. The few animals that Rescue Ink had were in a safe warehouse so there was no real hurry to move them back to the building the shelter is in but they're back. "Politics make strange bedfellows" isn't that the saying? Chuck & Joe. Makes ya wanna go Hmmmmmmmm!!!!!!

Your bill of sale on Craigslist says the door is Fiberglas, not "clear pine".
Erica May 23, 2013 at 01:51 am
What about the foot bridges to just get in the beach in the west end? And the people still out of…Read More their homes? And the phoney letters claiming outrageous percentages of damage (proven to be untrue) to get us to raise the houses for how many thousands to be reassessed higher taxes?

Asbury Park = Democrats.
Freeport = Democrats
Rockaway = Democrats
Long Beach = Democrats.

Taht's right Tony, takes a long time to figure out how to steal that kind of dough. Welcome to the…Read More new Asbury Park.

If you have an alarm system, you need to pay the city fee. They hired an outside company to manage…Read More the payments so now the fee is expected to be collected.

I have heard 3 stories: the movie theatre owner had no flood insurance and will need to find $$ to…Read More rebuild, no $$ so far; the theatre will be razed and will become home to 4 stores, the movie theatre will be renovated into a world class theatre with surround sound and ticket prices of $2 for children and $4 for adults except after 4PM.

Publius May 21, 2013 at 08:56 am
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.
