Dancing To Doowop In Middle Village And Maspeth In the left photo, classic sounds of the 1950s filled the air at Juniper Valley Park last Tuesday night, July 8, during the first performance in a free concert series at the Middle Village park’s softball field. As shown, the New York Exceptions entertained an audience with their renditions of doowop hits Shown at right, doowopl royalty took the stage last Wednesday night, July 9, in Maspeth during a free concert at the Maspeth Federal Savings Bank parking lot. Hundreds gathered under the tent to enjoy performances by Larry Chance and The Earls, known for their doowop hit “Remember When”, and Tommy Mara and The Crests, who performed “16 Candles” and other favorites. (photos: Marcin Zurawicz) News From The SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION Benefits Of Many Flavors by Rosa Rodriguez Social Security Assist. Dist. Manager Do you scream for ice cream? If so, July’s the month for you. (If not, read on just the same—we have a surprise for you at the end.) July is National Ice Cream Month and July 20 is National Ice Cream Day. Take your family to get ice cream and you’ll find a variety of flavors. Same with Social Security. Most people think of retirement, but that’s like limiting yourself to vanilla. At Social Security, we offer a variety of benefits. • Retirement—by far our most popular flavor. Most people need about 10 years of work (40 credits) to qualify for retirement benefits. You can retire as early as age 62 (generally, benefits are permanently reduced) or wait until full retirement age (currently age 66, but gradually increasing to age 67) for a larger benefit payment. Put off retirement and earn even more. To learn more, read When To Start Receiving Retirement Benefits, available at www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs. • Disability—if you become disabled and unable to work, you may qualify for Social Security disability benefits. The number of credits needed depends on how old you are when you become disabled. Learn more at www.socialsecurity.gov/disability. • Survivors—in the unfortunate event of your early demise, your family may be eligible for Social Security survivors benefits. In most cases, you need to have worked about 10 years for your surviving family members to qualify for survivors benefits. Learn more at www.socialsecurity.gov/survivorplan • Supplemental Security Income (SSI)—this needs-based program pays benefits to aged, blind, and disabled people with low income and few resources. Find out more at www.socialsecurity.gov/ssi. Your family may be more excited about a trip to the ice cream parlor than a discussion about benefits, but it’s good to know that Social Security offers a variety of benefits when you need them. Don’t like ice cream? July 20 is National Lollipop Day, too! So grab a lollipop and visit www.socialsecurity.gov. There is so much you can do online, you’ll feel like a kid in a candy store. Chances are you’ll complete your business before your lollipop. 25 • TIMES, THURSDAY, JULY 17, 2014 Fine Italian Cuisine the Bamonte Family in 1900 ©Times Newsweekly - 2014 - BEMONTES Established by Closed Tuesdays FREE Parking BAMONTE’S 32 Withers St. Brooklyn, NY 11211 718-384-8831 • 718-384-9634 Eat at... ©Times Newsweekly - 2014 - OSTEREST Joe’s Restaurant Right here in the ❤ of Ridgewood You can find us on www.joesrestaurantny.com Gift Certificates Available HIGH ACCLAIM 1/2 Daily News Accepting Credit Cards ––––– A Small Sampling of Our Menu Items ––––– Pollo CHICKEN CUTLET............................................$10.95 CHICKEN CUTLET WITH SAUCE...................$11.95 CHICKEN CUTLET PARMIGIANA....................$12.95 CHICKEN MARSALA........................................$12.95 CHICKEN CACCIATORE..................................$14.25 CHICKEN FRANCESE.......................................$12.95 Pesce LOBSTER & SHRIMP & MUSSELS.....................$26.95 FILET OF SOLE FRANCESE.............................$14.95 CALAMARI FRA DIAVOLO..............................$14.95 CALAMARI MARINARA.....................................$13.95 SHRIMP FRA DIAVOLO......................................$16.95 ALL SERVED WITH PASTA OR VEGETABLE Appetizers and Salads FRIED CALAMARI..................................................$8.50 BAKED CLAMS.......................................................$8.50 STEAMED CLAMS RED OR WHITE ..............................$8.50 STEAMED MUSSELS RED OR WHITE...........................$8.50 LITTLE NECK CLAMS ON THE HALF SHELL.................$8.50 SHRIMP COCKTAIL..................................................$8.50 ANTIPASTO SML. $8.95 LGE. ...................................$12.95 MIXED SALAD........................................................$4.50 CAESAR SALAD......................................................$4.95 CAESAR SALADwith GRILLED CHICKEN.......................$8.50 SLICED TOMATOES with AVOCADO & HEARTS OF PALM...$8.50 SLICED TOMATOES with ANCHOVIES............................$7.50 SLICED TOMATOES with MOZZARELLA........................$8.50 Osstteerriia IIttalliiana Authentic Italian Food From... 57- 57 61st St., Maspeth NY, 11378 • 718-894-4391 We Serve...Whole Wheat Pasta and Gluten Free Pasta •Prime Quality Veal, Steak and Chicken •Fresh Made Pastas •Fresh Fish Bought and Served Daily •Fresh Made Desserts •Catering Services Available •Children’s Menu Available Top Rated 2013 Restaurant - Eat24.com •FREE Delivery OPEN DAILY 12 NOON UNTIL 11PM ©Times Newsweekly - 2013 - JOE’S 66-11 FOREST AVENUE 1-718-497-1300 or 1-718-497-3734 • Between Gates Ave & Palmetto St. OPEN 7 DAYS FOR LUNCH & DINNER EVERYTHING COOKED TO ORDER • ASK FOR OUR DAILY SPECIALS NOW ACCEPTING RESERVATIONS FOR ANY OCCASION.
