SUMMARY:Ron Manning\, Healthcare in Suffolk County
DESCRIPTION:Members and friendsThis morning’s speaker was Ron Manning\, Asst. Director of Patient Services\, Suffolk County Heath Dept. I learned from Ron’s presentation of a system that I was hardly aware existed. \nThere are 11 Suffolk County Health Centers. These centers are serving those communities where there is a serious need. However they are open top all who should apply. They have a patient list of 60\,000 people. The patients are charged on a sliding scale and about 40% of the patients are not charged at all. Some of the patients do have insurance and use these facilities because they are convenient\, or for other personal reasons. \nThis system reminded me of the US Public Health facilities that existed in the city of New York when I was a child. The function of a facility such as this goes far beyond the care of those who need the services. It addresses the need to control communicable diseases by keeping the less fortunate healthy. In a sense\, whether we need these services ourselves or not\, we in the general population are among the beneficiaries \nMr. manning answered many questions about how the funding is done\, as well as what special services are made available to the population that unit serves. Overall this was a very informative meeting\, and I’m sure we only scratched the surface. \nNext week is our annual Holiday Gathering. There are a few seats left. See attachment. Meanwhile have a nice weekend.Ernie Fazio

SUMMARY:Holiday Party
DESCRIPTION:Members and friends\n\nToday’s meeting of LIMBA was a celebration of the holidays. Many old friends responded to the Holiday Gathering invitation. The entertainment was provided by the multi instumented Larry Siegel\, and an old favorite\, Jim Graseck on his violin. Jim has earned the nickname as the “Victor Borge of the violin” and they both delighted the audience. Larry with his humorous songs and Jim with his running monologue as he played beautifully executed pieces on the violin\, and really connected with an appreciative audience. The entertainers even indulged me\, by asking me to sing a few songs. \n \nThe Hilton Garden was at its best\, Bill Armstong and his staff were great and the room was decorated in a  festive holiday tradition. Many thanks ti Bill\, Therese\, and the rest of the Hilton Garden staff. \n \nWe were able to provide a very well received event at a reasonable cost because our sponsors offset our extra costs. Our sponsors for the event were Terry Townsend\, Kelly Gutradt-The Tuttle Agency\, Vincent Frigeria-Keyspan\, Joy Munro-AFLAC\, and Froydis Cameron-Broadwater. Thanks to all.\n \nNext week we will have an interesting presentation on a major development project being promoted by Charles Wang. It’s called the Lighthouse\, and it is dramatic. I’ll Have more on that next week. Meanwhile\, have a nice weekend.\n \nErnie Fazio

SUMMARY:Charles Wang- CA founder "The Lighthouse"
DESCRIPTION:Members and friendsOur speaker this morning had a packed house. LIMBA board member\, and former Suffolk County Executive Robert Gaffney Introduced the speaker. \nThe topic involved one of the most ambitious plans conceived in recent times. Charles Wang\, who we identify as the founder of Computer Associates\, is continuing to think big with his concept of the Lighthouse Development. This project has\, in the words of famed Chicago architect Daniel Burnham\, has “the power stir men’s blood.” \nThe Lighthouse Development encompasses a myriad of mixed uses\, including retail\, bistro’s and restaurants\, cultural venues\, health and fitness facilities\, sports arenas\, parks\, and commons that will be attractive to families and pedestrians. While it is the central structure\, known as The Lighthouse\, that claims the name to this vision\, it is all the other elements that combine to create a proud venue. \nThe graphics for this endeavor are breathtaking. While watching the animation\, which was very professionally done\, I could sense myself breathing deeply as I watched the concept unfold on the screen. The graphics lasted about 8 minutes and then Charles spoke to the audience in his very communicative style that he is famous for. After that portion he asked the audience for questions\, which they were eager to give him. \nUsually the Q&A is the most interesting part of the program\, and the axiom proved true again. Mr. Wang has an easy and fluid style. He is succinct\, pithy\, informative and charming. When asked about the best case scenario for starting\, the answer was three years. There was a question about legislative support and sadly\, political people are not eager to think as innovators. There were questions about transportation links\, parking\, and power generation needs. There were no questions about esthetics\, which were so well dealt with in the graphics. \nAfter we adjourned Mr. Wang remained to answer many questions on a one on one basis\, as well as pose for many pictures. \nFor the next two weeks we will adjourn for the holiday recess and return on January 6th\, when Congressman Tim Bishop will be our speaker. More on that later\, meanwhile have a great weekend. \nErnie Fazio
