Grucci Fireworks Show At Eisenhower Park On July 2 2011
Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano today announced that the County and TD Bank, America's Most Convenient Bank®, will once again present a spectacular fireworks display in Eisenhower Park on Saturday, July 2, 2011.
Despite the cancellation of other high profile fireworks shows, TD Bank will once again sponsor Celebrate America at the Harry Chapin Lakeside Theatre in Eisenhower Park. The fireworks, presented by the world-famous Grucci family, are part of an unforgettable night in Eisenhower Park that includes a pre-show starring Mr. Scott the Music Man at 5:40 p.m. and a Bon Jovi Tribute Band - Slippery When Wet at 7:30 p.m.
I want to thank TD Bank for their continued support of this spectacular celebration of our nation's independence, said Mangano. This is a great opportunity families and seniors to once again enjoy an incredible concert and fireworks show in Eisenhower Park.
At TD Bank, we are passionate about supporting the communities where our customers and employees live and work, said TD Bank Regional President Chris Giamo. We are proud to help bring this spectacular fireworks show back to Long Island again this year.
The theatre area gates will open at 5:30 p.m. and the fireworks will begin at darkness (approx. 9:30 p.m.) Tickets are required for admission to the Theatre area and are available free of charge at any TD Bank on Long Island, while supplies last. There is no formal seating; visitors should bring blankets or chairs. Space is limited and overflow will be directed to other viewing and parking areas.
In anticipation of the holiday weekend, County Executive Mangano, along with Acting Police Commissioner Thomas Krumpter, remind the residents that fireworks awareness and prevention are important issues to discuss with their families. The possession, use, or sale of fireworks, including sparklers, is a violation of New York State Penal Law, and may be punishable as a misdemeanor or a felony. Parents should talk with their children about the destructive outcomes that can occur from playing with fireworks.
Fourth of July fireworks, although popular, can be extremely harmful. Fireworks statistics indicate that:
•An estimated 9,800 people were treated in emergency rooms for fireworks-related injuries in the United States, in 2007.
•Approximately 16% of all consumer fireworks injuries are caused by sparklers burning hands and legs, with the majority of these injuries occurring to young children.
•Most of these injuries happen at the victims' homes.
•Fireworks can cause life threatening residential fires.
•Children ages 5 to 9 years old have the highest rate of injuries related to fireworks.
There are many licensed professionals that perform fireworks presentations for the public, such as the Celebrate America show at Eisenhower Park. County Executive Mangano and Acting Police Commissioner Krumpter would like to wish the residents of Nassau County a happy and safe July Fourth holiday.
Eisenhower Park, operated by the Nassau County Department of Parks, Recreation and Museums, is located in East Meadow with entrances on Merrick Avenue and Hempstead Turnpike. The Lakeside Theatre is near parking fields 6 and 6A. For more information, call Nassau County Parks at 516-572-0200, or visit nassaucountyny.govparks

The Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend the US Navy sends a contingent of helicopters to Long Island as part of Fleet Week. They draw a good sized crowd and everyone wants a chance to go through them after they land. If you don't run once the protective gates open you have a long wait to get in. Once in the heli it still took over 11 minutes to traverse. Have a look around at whatever pace that you want.

SUMMARY
=======
The 1964/1965 New York World's Fair held over 140 pavilions, 110 restaurants, for 80 nations (hosted by 37), 24 US states, and over 45 corporations to build exhibits or attractions at Flushing Meadows Park in Queens, NY. The immense fair covered 646 acres (261 ha) on half the park, with numerous pools or fountains, and an amusement park with rides near the lake. However, the fair did not receive official sanctioning from the Bureau of International Expositions (BIE). Hailing itself as a universal and international exposition, the fair's theme was Peace Through Understanding, dedicated to Man's Achievement on a Shrinking Globe in an Expanding Universe. American companies dominated the exposition as exhibitors. The theme was symbolized by a 12-story-high, stainless-steel model of the earth called the Unisphere, built on the foundation of the Perisphere from the 1939 NYC fair. The fair ran for two six-month seasons, April 22 – October 18, 1964, and April 21 – October 17, 1965. Admission price for adults (13 and older) was $2 in 1964 (equivalent to $16.16 in 2018) but $2.50 (equivalent to $19.88 in 2018) in 1965, and $1 for children (2–12) both years (equivalent to $8.08 in 2018).The fair is noted as a showcase of mid-20th-century American culture and technology. The nascent Space Age, with its vista of promise, was well represented. More than 51 million people attended the fair, though fewer than the hoped-for 70 million. It remains a touchstone for many American Baby Boomers, who visited the optimistic fair as children before the turbulent years of the Vietnam War and many cultural changes.
In many ways the fair symbolized a grand consumer show covering many products produced in America at the time for transportation, living, and consumer electronic needs in a way that would never be repeated at future world's fairs in North America. Many major American manufacturing companies from pen manufacturers, to chemical companies, to computers, to automobiles had a major presence. This fair gave many attendees their first interaction with computer equipment. Corporations demonstrated the use of mainframe computers, computer terminals with keyboards and CRT displays, teletype machines, punch cards, and telephone modems in an era when computer equipment was kept in back offices away from the public, decades before the Internet and home computers were at everyone's disposal.

Trailer park millionaires
Some of the richest people in the US, including billionaires Warren Buffett and Sam Zell, have made millions from trailer parks at the expense of the country's poorest people. Seeing their success, ordinary people from across the country are now trying to follow in their footsteps and become trailer park millionaires. The Guardian went to Orlando to learn the tricks of the trade from Frank Rolfe, the self-appointed dean of Mobile Home University, as he led would-be investors around a trailer park for sex offenders.
