A Nassau County's "Project 21" initiative that involved 10 liquor stores in Wantagh, Bellmore and Massapequa landed one arrest.

Ramnarine Ganesh, 55, of Queens, who works at Ivan &  Sons Liquor at 1310 Hicksville Rd. in Massapequa allegedly made a sale to an underage agent, who was working with police on Saturday night. The agent tried to buy liquor at 10 liquor stores in Wantagh, Bellmore and Massapequa, but according to police, Ganesh was the only one who made the sale.

So Lu Scala never had any children so it might be safe to say you have never been to a PTA meetingRead More or a School Board meeting or a budget presentation so then you would have no idea how the money is spent good or bad. I'm sorry that your neighbors make more than you but like anything else you get what you pay for there are educational requirements for teaching and administration jobs, I'm sure you would be happy if all the school personnel could be replaced by minimum wage earners or better yet we could close all the schools after all you have been out of school for 40 years so you don't need them anymore, but thats not how it works. Why is always the uninformed that speak loudest and longest?

A bit of a surprise considering kids come home with a supply list a mile long (and average $40-$75).
