Patch bloggers write on a variety of topics. Here are a few of the best from around Patch sites. 

Send the kids outdoors but --so says Stella Miller. "You may be wondering if it is cruel to deprive your cat of an outdoor life.  Absolutely not.  Cats that are allowed outside are more likely to lead shorter lives."

Robert Pape writes about the . "These men are a true band of brothers who have always been there when called to service. They represent the best of the Irish spirit and tradition and they brought New York City through some of its darkest days."

Mary Redler finds Long Island "Driving through many of the Long Island's downtown areas and seeing the businesses that line the streets, one might think that it is merely a place where people eat out or get take-out after work and women get their nails and hair done, but Long Island is so much more."

Brian Kelly advocates for to control the population in the spring. "Many homeowners consider the fall as the end of tick season as the temperatures decrease, but it is actually an important time to treat properties to prevent the spread of ticks for the spring season."

Randy Levin writes about the and the need to get going. Now. "Once again…the 28,000 other students….many of whom were driven to get 2400 on their SAT were also club presidents and competitors who gave their time to charity work….if not a kidney."

Cynthia Loewen writes about , most recently about legal protections for artists.

Good Luck Adina!

Congratulations Adina! Well deserved.
Rich Jacques (Editor) May 25, 2013 at 08:19 am
Because of her outstanding work, Adina has been promoted to a new position at Patch. She has takenRead More on more of a regional role, but you will still get to enjoy much of her work here in Port Washington.

I hope the closing is only temporary. I purchased milk and other items from Dairy Barn for manyRead More years. Always got good quality products. Never had a problem.
Nassau Taxpayer May 23, 2013 at 03:55 pm
With the loss of "D-Barn", the lack of a drive-through convenience store creates a voidRead More worth filling.
George Mulligan May 23, 2013 at 07:19 pm
There was very little publicity about the budget this year. I was disappointed that the increase wasRead More over 3.5 percent. We still haven't addressed the salary issues and maybe we never will. Until the salary and benefit package is decreased, there will never be a reduction in the cost of education in Port Washinton.
NYB May 23, 2013 at 03:33 pm
What does it matter? No matter what you do, the budget increase will pass. Just empty your pocketsRead More and move on.

Historically, that was a problem with "NO" voters...

There's a lot "Dina" doesn't know -- or sure acts like it, and an obvious and growingRead More amount she wishes the electorate didn't know about her failure to perform for PW.

if we are going to sell off our 40 spot lot why not advocate for the LIRR to chip in and helpRead More building the 2 or 3 story parking lot on Haven? with more trains and more population we need more parking. we are fooling ourselves that this is not a "Hicksville" type train station. we are a main hub and it needs a substantial parking lot that will help commuter parking and help retail parking in the main lots off of main street. anyone who does not want that parking lot built needs to really ask themselves why not. if we can build a new car wash on a main cut through street for no reason we can get this done with the same traffic nightmares!!! BTW during construction which im sure will take at least a year. where will those people park? in the other lots, so us who take the 808 train will get screwed bc we will not have a place to park now.
Nassau Taxpayer May 23, 2013 at 12:52 pm
Good spot for a multi-story municipal/LIRR garage, given the height of terrain behind it.
Bob May 20, 2013 at 06:28 pm
I agree. This lot should be open all the time. Maybe there is a potential liability issue butRead More let's see if it can be worked out.

A 135 million dollar budget with another 5 million+ assured for next year, teachers have to buyRead More "school supplies" in Port Washington? Are you kidding?
