State OKs licenses for immigrants

bill if it didn’t give federal authorities access to DMV databases. State Attorney General Letitia James (D) wrote a statement the night of vote. “The legislation is well crafted and contains ample protections for those who apply for driver’s licenses,” James said in a statement. “If this bill is enacted and challenged in court, we will vigorously defend it.” The bill would require undocumented immigrants to take a driver’s license exam and be able to buy car insurance. The measure would go into effect in 180 days and undocumented immigrants could get licenses starting in December.

After a contentious back and forth between state Democrats and Republicans, the green light bill, a measure that would allow undocumented immigrants to obtain a driver’s license in New York State, passed the New York State Senate June 17 and was signed into law by Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D). The vote makes New York the 13th state in the nation to allow undocumented immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses. In the past, undocumented immigrants in New York were allowed to have driver’s licenses if they passed the required tests and proved their residency. In 2001, former governor George Pataki reversed the measure via executive order. Proponents of the bill say that the bill would improve public safety and the economy. “Today is a historic day for New York’s hard working immigrant community,” said Steven Choi, the executive director at the New York Immigration Coalition. “We are glad to see that Governor Cuomo did the right thing by signing the Green Light NY bill into law.” In the lead up to the vote there was some hesitation of support from some Democrats, which critics attributed to being wary of backlash

to the bill and its impact on the 2020 election year.The legislation moved forward without the support of the six Long Island Democratic senators, who all voted no, as well as three other Republican senators. “I am disappointed that the state lawmakers in Albany voted to approve this terrible piece of legislation,” said John Kennedy, Suffolk County comptroller and county executive candidate. “Driving in New York State is a privilege, not a guaranteed right, and we should not be extending privileges to those who do not follow the law.” Other Republicans in the state Legislature shared opposition to the green light bill. “This legislation is an outrage to law-abiding New Yorkers, as well as to new Americans that have taken the appropriate steps to become citizens legally,” said State Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport). “The overwhelming majority of New Yorkers oppose issuing driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants. And yet, that is exactly what Senate Democrats did.” The Long Island Democratic Senate Delegation said in a statement that they value the important contributions made by immigrants to the local economy and communities. “Following countless meetings with stakeholders, residents, and advocates on the im-

plications of this bill, our vote is based on the continued existence of serious concerns raised by stakeholders and law enforcement,” the statement read. “We will continue to stand together in the best interest of Long Islanders.” Some lawmakers shared concerns that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency could possibly obtain driver’s information and use it for deporting individuals. Cuomo also raised similar concerns before the vote, stating that he would veto the bill if the federal government would be able to access driver’s information that could be used for deportation. He then asked the state attorney general to review the bill and would sign the

On June 11, the Smithtown Central School District board of education appointed veteran educator Russell J. Stewart as interim superintendent, effective July 3. Stewart joins Smithtown from the Center Moriches School District, where he currently serves as superintendent of schools. “Mr. Stewart is a highly respected administrator who brings with him the professional experience, educational knowledge and interpersonal communication skills the board requires to effectively lead our school district during this transition period,” said Smithtown BOE president Jeremy Thode. During his nine years as superintendent of Center Moriches, Stewart successfully oversaw the introduction and expansion of a number of programs, including the implementation of a districtwide International Baccalaureate endeavor, creation of a community service involvement program for high school students and expansion of a comprehensive K-12 8:1:1 program. He was also responsible for the enhancement of school safety through various efforts, such as increased security protocols and the promotion of a positive school culture and social-emotional wellness programs. Additionally, he oversaw the successful completion of a comprehensive capital

improvement project. “I thank the board for this opportunity and am excited to work with them and confirm my commitment to the students of Smithtown,” Stewart said. “I also look forward to collaborating with the community, students, staff and my central office colleagues to create a unified vision and further enhance the educational opportunities for all students.” As part of his more than 30 years of educational experience, Stewart has served as principal, assistant principal, dean of discipline and chairperson for health, physical education and interscholastic athletics at Commack High School. He was also an assistant principal and principal at Western Suffolk BOCES Consortium. Stewart spent his first 10 years in education as a health and physical education teacher. A resident of Manorville, Stewart holds a bachelor’s in health and physical education from the University of Sioux Falls and a master’s in school administration and supervision from New York University. The board is actively continuing its search for a permanent superintendent of schools and will keep the community updated as the progress continues.

Psychiatric Center to become parkland At the end of the 2019 legislative session, New York State officials in both the Senate and Assembly passed a bill looking to fully adopt the Kings Park Psychiatric Center as part of the Nissequogue River parkland. “I am thrilled this legislation has passed both houses of the legislature so that this important property is protected for future generations,” said New York State Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport). Originally in 2001, only 155 acres of the former psychiatric center were designated as state parkland to create the Nissequogue River State Park. In 2006, Flanagan led the effort to have the remaining 365 acres of land administratively transferred to the jurisdiction of New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to be protected as parkland in perpetuity. The latest legislation, sponsored by Flanagan and New York State Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket), would effectively fully protect the additional 365-acre parcel into the future by codifying it into statute and officially designating it as part of Nissequogue River State Park. Under the new legislation, state parks officials would develop, adopt and implement a master plan for the full 520 acres in cooperation with Nissequogue River State Park Foundation and other interested parties with input from the general public. The plan will consider a series of preferred alternatives for the future development and use of the Nissequogue River State Park, but only after conducting public meetings to gather useful information and input. Factors such as the historic, natural and recreational resources of the park will be considered. “I look forward to Governor Cuomo’s ultimate approval of this bill so we can ensure a bright future for this wonderful local resource and preserve some of the limited open spaces we have left

on Long Island,” the state senator said. Flanagan’s office said he has secured more than $31 million for the demolition of buildings, remediation and redevelopment of the tract of open space. The state senator has been working to have the additional land protected since he stopped in 2006 the sale of the land to developers. Flanagan announced that the legislation that passed would require state Office of Parks officials to prepare a master plan for the Nissequogue River State Park. The legislation will be sent to Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) for final approval.

Long Island drinking water quality worries lawmakers BY DONNA DEEDY DONNA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

The Long Island congressional delegation The Story of Nathan Hale, has reached tipping point. They’re ready for BenjaminaTallmadge Protection &the the Environmental Origin of The Culper Spies Agency to take action to better address concerns over water quality and its potential impact on human health. U.S. Reps. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley), Kathleen Rice (D-Garden City), Peter King (R-Seaford) and Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) were joined June 18 by local elected officials and environmental advocates at the Town of Hempstead Water Department to demand that the EPA sets maximum contaminant levels for drinking water and act to help protect Long Islanders from contaminated drinking supplies. “When it comes to our communities’ drinking water, there is no room for error,” Zeldin said following the press conference. “This is the drinking water for so many Long Islanders, and failure to act is not an option.” New York Public Interest Research Group or NYPIRG, found in a recent study that Long Island has the most contaminated drinking water in New York state. Several contaminants, such as 1,4-dioxane and per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances — known as PFAS — were detected above the EPA’s reference concentrations, which are health-based assessments. The problem is widespread. Locally, the chemical 1,4-dioxane was found in at least two private drinking wells in Smithtown and also in wells serviced by Suffolk County Water Authority, including the Flower Hill Road well field in Halesite, as reported in

The Times of Smithtown April 30 article, “County acts to address drinking water contamination concerns.” Adrienne Esposito, executive director of Citizens Campaign for the Environment, said that 65 out of 80 commonly used household products that the organization had tested included at least trace amounts of the potentially toxic chemical 1,4-dioxane. CCE is calling for a ban on its use. Zeldin is a member of the Congressional PFAS Task Force which was established to address the urgent threat of PFAS to help better protect communities from the harmful effects of the chemicals. The use of industrial strength firefighting foam during past training exercises, such as those undertaken at the Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant in Calverton and Francis S. Gabreski Air National Guard Base, have been known to introduce chemicals, such as PFAS, into the surrounding groundwater, potentially contaminating drinking supplies. PFAS is a man-made substance that is persistent in the human body and the environment. It can also be found in nonstick products, polishes, waxes, paints, cleaning products and packaging. Some PFAS are no longer manufactured in the U.S., according to the EPA website, but can be produced internationally and imported to U.S. in consumer goods such as carpets, textiles, paper and packaging, rubber and plastics. The EPA Region 2 Office spokesperson did not respond to requests for comment before press time.

It came as quite a surprise to her: Suffolk County police do not routinely carry leashes. So, 13-year-old Girl Scout Victoria Glass sprang into action. For the last two months she’s been collecting leads that officers can use when responding to calls about loose animals.

To address the critical shortfall of skilled young and beginning farmers and ranchers, congressional leaders, including Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley), introduced June 13 the Young Farmer Success Act. If adopted, the bill would encourage careers in agriculture, by adding farmers and ranchers to the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program, an existing program that currently includes teachers, nurses, first responders and other public service professions. Under the program, eligible public service professionals who make 10 years of incomedriven student loan payments can have the balance of their loans forgiven. “Our country’s farmers are part of the backbone of our nation, and while they are critical to ensuring American families have food to put on the table, all too often the next generation of farmers is finding that a career in agriculture makes it difficult to put food on their own table,” Zeldin said. “After graduating college, aspiring farmers are saddled with crippling student loan debt and the daunting costs of agricultural businesses, oftentimes driving them from a career feeding our country.” The new legislation will allow the next generation of farmers to pursue a career serving the American people, eliminating the disincentive to study agriculture in school and getting them on the farm when they graduate. Farming is an expensive business to enter, in part because of skyrocketing land prices. Young and beginning farmers often see small profits or even losses in their first years of business. With the majority of existing farmers nearing retirement age, and very few young people entering the

farming or ranching profession, America is beginning to face an agricultural crisis. Since the Dust Bowl, the federal government has taken steps to support farmers, and the Young Farmer Success Act supports farmers through a different approach — finding a tangible pathway to pay off student loans that will offer incentives to a new generation of career farmers. “Eighty-one percent of the young farmers who responded to our 2017 national survey hold a bachelor’s degree or an advanced degree,” Martin Lemos, National Young Farmers Coalition interim executive director, said. “This means there is a very small population of beginning farmers without student loan debt. With the average age of farmers now nearing 60 years, and farmers over 65 outnumbering those under 35 by 6:1, we need to do more for the next generation of farmers to succeed. We are grateful for the bill’s bipartisan champions, Representatives Joe Courtney (D-CT), Glenn ‘G.T.’ Thompson (R-PA), Josh Harder (D-CA) and Lee Zeldin. With the support of Congress, we will encourage those who wish to pursue a career in farming to serve their country by building a brighter future for U.S. agriculture.” In 2011, National Young Farmers Coalition conducted a survey of 1,000 young farmers and found 78 percent of respondents struggled with a lack of capital. A 2014 follow-up survey of 700 young farmers with student loan debt found that the average burden of student loans was $35,000. The same study also found 53 percent of respondents are currently farming, but have a hard time making their student loan payments and another 30 percent are interested in farming, but haven’t pursued it as a career because their salary as a farmer wouldn’t be enough to cover their student loan payments.

Lake Avenue, a treasure of history in St. James BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM For more than a century, one thoroughfare in St. James has been hustling and bustling. It’s no surprise that the Smithtown town board and St. James residents have been directing their energy toward the revitalization of Lake Avenue in the last couple of years with the nonprofit organization Celebrate St. James. With the arrival of the Long Island Rail Road to St. James in 1872, the avenue and connecting streets quickly became the center of local commerce, especially around the LIRR station house. Smithtown Historian Brad Harris said the station house in St. James located near the northwest corner of Lake Avenue and Railroad Avenue was built in 1873 by community members, who also paid for it. Soon stage actors and other visitors from New York City, including Mayor William Gaynor, who once lived in Deepwells Mansion, were visiting the hamlet on a regular basis, especially in the summer. “There was activity the town had never seen before,” Harris said. Local historian Noel Gish said the St. James station house is the LIRR’s oldest one in existence still standing in its original form. The St. James Long Island Rail Road station house, above, was built and funded by residents in 1873. Below, the flatiron building in St. James was built in 1908 by Joseph Amey.

North Shore couple installs low-nitrogen septic system and spreads the word BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM When it came to their cesspool being replaced, one Three Village couple based their choice on their concern for local waterways. Tom and Carolyn O’Dwyer decided to install a low-nitrogen septic system on their Strong’s Neck property this spring after learning about the treatment process. Unlike a cesspool where bacteria and nitrogen can seep out, and into local water sources, Tom O’Dwyer said in their new system water percolates through a septic system, and the advanced process removes more nitrogen than a cesspool. Excessive nitrogen can affect the oxygen level in water where it is below the necessary levels to support marine life. “It’s good for the environment, and it’s good technology,” he said. “I do this stuff every day, so I figured I would lead by example.” O’Dwyer, an environmental engineer, recently attended classes offered by the county to learn about the systems and the grants Suffolk has to offer to those who choose to install them. As of July 1, Suffolk County residents who voluntarily decide to replace their cesspools will need to replace them with a system consisting of a septic tank and leaching pool at a minimum. Contractors will need to register the system with the Department of Health Services. While residents can choose a conventional septic system, another option is an advanced device that removes more nitrogen. County grants of up to $20,000 are available for residents who qualify, where the county has been offering the grants for the last two years. There is also an additional state grant of up to $10,000, which can mean a total of up to $30,000. O’Dwyer said he and his wife bought their house four years ago, and while the cesspool hadn’t given them too many problems, after

hearing about the low-nitrogen units, he thought it was the best way to go, especially with living 500 feet from the water, a part of their home they love. “Our family enjoys swimming, boating, fishing and clamming in the local waterways, so clean water is very important to us,” he said. Involved with larger projects like past work on the Tappan Zee Bridge, he began hearing about low-nitrogen installation projects out East and decided to start learning about the systems and soon began designing them. O’Dwyer said so far most of the work he has seen has been on the East End of Long Island, and he’s trying to get the word out to his friends about the grants and is currently working on three different homes on the North Shore where the homeowners are tired of their cesspool problems. O’Dwyer said he found the process to apply for a grant from the county easy. He filled out an application and submitted a deed and tax forms. He said residents can then pick an engineer to design the system and pick a contractor off the list of county-approved contractors. Suffolk then directly pays the contractor. The engineer said a site can be difficult at times due to certain ground conditions, and homeowners may have to pay more than the average of nearly $20,000. Field testing may be required to see if the ground is clay or sand and how well the soil will drain. As for engineers, the price averages around $2,500. Peter Scully, deputy county executive for administration, said Suffolk County sanitary code requires that the low-nitrogen systems treat down to at least 19 milligrams per liter of total nitrogen, and it’s the most stringent requirement in the northeast. He said while the total nitrogen from cesspool discharge is said to be around 65 milligrams per liter, “the health department staff routinely see samples with concentrations

of total nitrogen far in excess of 65 mg/l and in excess of 100 mg/l.” He added that conventional septic systems discharge 61 mg of nitrogen per liter, and the low-nitrogen systems create a 70 percent reduction when compared to cesspools. George Hoffman, co-founder of the Setauket Harbor Task Force, calls those who upgrade to low-nitrogen septic systems “harbor heroes” because, he said, they care enough about water quality to do the right thing. “It’s good to hear that homeowners in our area are installing low-nitrogen septic systems and are having a positive experience and setting an example for their neighbors,” he said. “This is especially important on Strong’s Neck where the transit time for groundwater to Setauket Harbor and Conscience Bay is less than two years.” Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket), a proponent of the bill, said the code was updated to match what was passed in 1972 for new residential construction where conventional septic systems with a leeching pool needed to be installed. “They knew way back — almost 50 years ago — they knew the cesspool itself was not enough,” she said. “It’s essentially a hole in the ground.” She said studies of subwatersheds in the county, where more than 70 percent of structures are not hooked up to sewer systems, have shown quite a bit of nitrogen from residential waste. She said while the low-nitrogen septic systems are not yet mandated like the conventional septic systems, it’s possible as early as next year that they could be for new home construction.

Hahn said the commitment of the county executive, legislators and county staff members has included working with the wastewater industry to find ways homeowners can switch over to the new system, how to install and to know exactly what the systems do. “It’s been a tremendous accomplishment to get where we’re at,” she said. She said many residents might save money with the low-nitrogen systems if faced with replacing a cesspool or at least break even instead of choosing a conventional septic system. She did say there is a small electric charge based on the system annually and a little more maintenance that residents should be aware of when choosing the system. As for the grants, it must be the applicant’s primary residence occupied year-round. Most residents who have applied have qualified, Hahn said. Last week O’Dwyer sampled his new system, and he said the effluent looked clear with no odor. The field samples also showed reduced nitrogen levels. The environmental engineer said he and his wife are happy they installed the system, and now through his business, he plans to help others do the same. “My whole career I was searching for something,” he said. “I was passionate about a lot of things, but this intertwines my passion and my hobbies with my education and engineering background, so it’s a nice match.” Interested residents can call Suffolk County Department of Health Services, 631-852-5811, for more information.

Commack scout earns high honors

Boy Scout Troop 403 invited Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) to attend the Eagle Scout Court of Honor for Sam Morris of Commack and to offer his congratulations. For his community service project, Sam built and installed six new cedar benches at the main entrance to Indian Hollow Primary School, his alma mater. “Having spent a life in public service, first as a member of the Suffolk County Police Department and now as a Suffolk County legislator, I am so proud of all of your accomplishments and impressed that you will be attending U.S. Naval Academy,” said Trotta. “You have achieved so much as a teenager that I know you will continue to make your parents and community proud of you as you become a navy officer.”

Fishing competition attracts youth On one of the nicest days of spring, 42 young anglers and their families gathered under the sunshine at Willow Pond in Caleb Smith State Park Preserve for the Friends of Caleb Smith Preserve’s catch-and-release 16th annual Junior Fishing Tournament. More than 300 fish, including a 14½-inch trout, were caught by anglers ranging in age from 5 to 12.

Winners of the morning session, for children ages 5 to 8, were Frankie Marcotrigiano, 5, of Brentwood, who caught the most fish, 13 total; Tristen Hennon, 8, of St. James, who caught the largest pan fish, 9½ inches; and Dylan Haase, 5, of Smithtown, who caught the largest “other” fish, a 14½-inch trout. Winners in the afternoon session, for anglers ages 9 through 12, were Justo Reyes, 11, of Levittown, who caught the most fish,

38 total; Chase Patrie, 11, of Setauket, who caught the largest pan fish, 9½ inches; and Devon Gallo, 10, of Manhattan caught the largest “other” fish, a 15½-inch bass. Another highlight of the event was the Second Annual Tom Troccoli Memorial Lottery, involving the 17 registrants in the afternoon session. The winner received a fishing rod and tackle. The drawing was held in the name of the late Tom Troccoli

of Smithtown, who enjoyed fishing and had accompanied his grandson at two junior angler tournaments. The Troccoli family donated funds for the memorial lottery, which will be continued for many years. The late Troccoli’s grandson Joseph Troccoli, 9, of Smithtown drew the name of angler Jack DiBenedetto, 12, of Smithtown, as the winner of the Troccoli Memorial award.

Editorial

Letters to the editor

A black cloud, searching When enough is enough for a silver lining

One has to understand that journalists are human beings, and just as much as it pains people to learn about the death of a young woman, it can be even more painful to write about it. Melissa Marchese, 18, died June 14 after being injured in a terrible car crash in Shoreham. She passed only two weeks before she was set to graduate high school. Since then, the local community has rallied around the family, donating well over $60,000 for the Marchese family in a GoFundMe campaign in less than a week after the crash. Likely the community will continue to support the family even after graduation. It is truly amazing to watch a community come out full force to support a grieving family but, even still, too many Shoreham and Wading River residents recognize the black cloud hanging over their hamlets. Nobody should have to read about a young person dying, but in Shoreham the situation is familiar, just all too familiar. The community went through this grief in 2014, after Tom Cutinella died from receiving a head injury due to an illegal tackle on the SWR football field. In 2018, the community was again devastated after learning about the death of Andrew McMorris, who was killed by a drunk driver while hiking with his Boy Scout troop. In both circumstances, the community rallied behind the families. The SWR football field and a new concession stand was renamed in honor of Tom, while a statue with brickwork done by an Eagle Scout was erected in his honor. In the case of Andrew, the Boy Scout troop has planted a new garden at the community center, where the scouts meet, while the community hung red ribbons on telephone poles, fence posts and mailboxes in his honor from Riverhead to Miller Place. These ribbons still flutter in the wind more than a half-year since he was killed. Shoreham residents have talked to one TBR News Media editor about the black cloud hanging over the small North Shore community of Shoreham-Wading River. One resident succinctly described the circuitous nature of Shoreham’s grief and support in the community: “We’ve had too many opportunities to show what a great community we are.” This tragedy reaches out beyond the community’s boundaries. It is in the nature of editorials like this one where we would ask people to take care, to always wait several seconds when the light turns green before making a move, to wear a seatbelt and to instill the importance of road safety in your kids, but those might be mere platitudes in the face of tragedy. All these tragedies were preventable. If only the driver of the car that hit Melissa’s vehicle was not “distracted,” as he later told police. If only the man who went out drinking that one day in October 2018 hadn’t gotten in his car to drive. If only Tom was not tackled in such a way to collide with his helmet. But whatever happens, Shoreham needs to never lose its sense of community. Let it never become complacent and numb in the face of tragedy. Whenever we have talked to the families who’ve lost loved ones, each time they are comforted by how much the community has come out to support. There may have been too many opportunities to show the humanity of local Long Island residents, but let us never stagger or fall in making sure we all remain compassionate for all who suffer.

When will Congress be held accountable for inaction on every issue but the resistance movement? When will Congress realize that oversight is not overkill? When will policy take precedence over politics? When will Americans realize that the only “constitutional crisis” is within Congress regarding their inaction on the border, health care, infrastructure and trying to undo the 2016 election results? When will anti-Semitism be called out regardless of the source? When will the media print facts

instead of gossip from unknown sources? When will the media stop colluding with the Democrats and be held accountable for their fabrications? When will the media take responsibility for creating a dangerous environment within this country with their repetitive false narratives that are brainwashing and misleading the American public? When will Congress be concerned of how our own government influenced the 2016 election, i.e., FBI, CIA, Democratic National Committee paid-for dossier? When will the media stop using

‘The fireman’s dilemma’ One basic premise of some right-tolife supporters is that all human life is precious and equal. That explains why they regard a pregnancy caused by rape or incest as worthy as any other pregnancy. Even if the logic seems off, the consistency is praiseworthy. That they seem comfortable in making an exception to the life that’s extinguished during warfare — even questionable warfare — is less praiseworthy. But I’d have them consider what I’ve titled “The fireman’s dilemma.” The fictitious Village of Centerville

has a large building, 100 Main St. The building has two wings which radiate off a central lobby. One wing is a fertility clinic housing fertilized eggs. Life. The zygotes will soon be implanted into women. The other wing is a day care center with 3-year-olds. Life. The toddlers are playing with crayons and eating Grahams crackers. The fire department alarm sounds the alert. There’s a blazing fire at 100 Main. The firefighters run to their trucks, which race to the building. They put on

divisive tactics, i.e., race, gender, wealth, religion deliberately to agitate the environment? As related to the Mueller Report, when will the Democrats realize that doing the same thing over and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity, as per Albert Einstein? Finally, when will the country get an apology for the past two years of wasted time, money, energy and lies? When is enough ... enough? Carol Florio Lisa Pius East Setauket

the inhalators and drag their hoses into the lobby. It’s an inferno. The fire can’t be contained. There’s no time to spare. They must save as many lives in the few seconds available before the building implodes upon itself. You are the firefighter. Do you run to the wing with the zygotes? Do you run to the wing with the 3-year-olds? Is all “life” equal? Bruce Stasiuk Setauket

A response to ‘Help me to understand’ Dear “Help me to Understand” (letter to the editor, June 13), The essence of motherhood — and fatherhood — is unselfish sacrifice, and the driving force of it is love, just as a soldier endangers his own life for the love of those behind him — not hatred for those before him. Science affirms what the Bible teaches: A child temporarily residing inside his or her mother is another

human being with its own unique DNA, chromosomes, fingerprints, heartbeat and so on (every cell of which is either male or female from conception to death). One of God’s Ten Commandments is “You shall not murder.” And Christ, who gave His life for us all, assures us that “as you do to the least of these my brethren, you do it to Me.” Psalm 139 asserts “You (God) knit me together in my mother’s

womb; I praise Thee for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Thy works.” May God bless you as you are a partaker and partner in the creative, nurturing, self-sacrificing work and love of God. The Rev. Ronald Stelzer Our Savior Church and School Centereach

Opinion

A pinch of parsley and a side of separation

reaking up is spectacularly awkward, highly charged and, in retrospect, ﬁlled with humorous potential. Two people get together for a picnic, where a public scene might be difﬁcult for the recipient. “Want some tabouli? What is tabouli anyway?” “No thanks, and I don’t know what it is. You ordered it, not me.” “Good point, so, I was thinking. It’s probably a good time for us to separate.” D. None “Um, what, of the above excuse me?” BY DANIEL DUNAIEF The lip quivers, the breathing becomes short and

erratic and the eyebrows, shoulders and neck all droop at the same time. “No, yeah, I mean, you’re great and this has been a total blast but, you know, it’s just, I don’t know, it’s not working for me.” “A total blast? You’d call this a total blast? Besides, nothing is perfect. I know my family can be difﬁcult and I know I wake up with bad breath and I do, on occasion, correct your speech, but we can work around that. Don’t you want to try to make it work?” “I’m thinking that it’s probably time to do other things. I’m thinking of moving to Vancouver and you hate the cold.” “Vancouver? Really? Wait, have you been seeing other people? You and my sister get along a little too well. As soon as you start dating her, she won’t be interested. I know I share genes with her, but she’s a horrible person who has ruined my life over and over again.” “No, really, this has nothing to do with your sister. I wouldn’t do that to you or myself,

especially after what you just said.” “Oh, so, now there’s something wrong with my sister? At least she’s not dumping me.” “No, no, I think we have a great friendship and I’d like to stay in touch.” “You’d like to stay in touch? After all we’ve been through, you’re offering me your friendship? You’re not even that good of a friend. You rarely listen and you forget all the important dates in the year and you always want to go to the same restaurants, even though we have so many other choices.” “Right, exactly, I’m so boring, so maybe you’re ready to be done with me?” “Why do we have to end it now? It’s not like I was expecting to marry you. I can’t imagine having a younger version of you in the house. You can somehow shoot baskets from all over a gym ﬂoor that land in a hoop, but you have no ability to throw the dirty T-shirt you wore to play basketball into a much larger hamper that’s also closer to the ground, even though you roll the shirt into a ball.” “I agree. You could do so much better.”

“I’m sure there are plenty of better people out there, but we had some fun, right? We were supposed to go to that dinner next Saturday with the Smiths. They’re your friends, so maybe we should see what works between now and then?” “It’s OK, I already canceled that.” “What? That horrible person Jessica Smith knew you were going to break up with me before I did? How could you do this to me?” “Sorry, I didn’t tell them anything. I just said we couldn’t make it.” “We couldn’t make it because you were going to break up with me today over tabouli. You’re an idiot.” “Right, well, maybe we shouldn’t stay in touch?” “Oh, so now I’m not good enough to be your friend?” “I’m going to be a boring idiot elsewhere.” “Wait, you’re leaving me?” “Yes, and I’ve googled ‘tabouli.’ It’s a Lebanese salad with vegetables, wheat and parsley, just so you know.”

A hypnotic page-turner on Broadway not to be missed

ne of the best plays I have seen on Broadway is the drama, “The Ferryman.” Written by Jez Butterworth, directed by Sean Mendes and playing at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre only until July 7, it is so deserving of winning four Tony Awards, including best play, and should not be missed. The story is about a large Irish family in rural County Armagh in Northern Ireland and conjures up Tennessee Williams and “August: Osage County” for its faBetween milial interactions you and me of love, lust, beBY LEAH S. DUNAIEF trayal, anger, contradictions, secrets, repression and murder. But it is so much more. It is historic, being set in 1981 at the height of The Troubles involving the British, loyalist

Irish Protestants who want to remain in the United Kingdom, and nationalist Irish Catholics, including the Irish Republican Army, who want a united Ireland. It is a story about storytelling as three generations live under one roof of a large farmhouse and slowly reveal much about their own histories. It is about human kindness, as personiﬁed by the appealing leading character, farmer Quinn Carney, husband and father of seven children ranging in age from 16 years to nine months. He houses and employs Tom Kettle, an Englishman, whose mind is not all there, as his handyman; and Caitlin, wife of Carney’s long-missing brother and her son, Oisin, as well as aged aunts and an uncle. Yet Carney is also a former active member of the IRA, with its brutality and bloodshed, which he has ultimately rejected. It has homey fairy tales and classic epics in the mix, hopeless love, and lots of barroom talk and drinking, happy celebrating and passionate confrontations. Amid all that activity, with a cast of well-deﬁned characters, it has genuine, laughout-loud humor. The play is also remarkable for its length. It runs three and a quarter hours with only one

15-minute intermission after Act 1 and a threeminute dimming of the house lights following Act 2. Yet not for a minute, for me and my companions, did it keep from being riveting as it pulsated with suspense interspersed with hearthside family goodness that is set against the background report of Irish Republican hunger strikers dying one by one in a Belfast prison. There are even live animals in the form of an affectionate goose, a feral rabbit and a real, sweet baby. Artfully they all come together to deliver a memorable play and to live in the minds of the viewers well past the end of the performance. The prologue, set against a crumbling, grafﬁtisplayed urban wall, sets the sinister mood with an encounter between craven Father Horrigan and Muldoon, a major ﬁgure in the IRA. And every subsequent scene in which the priest appears seethes with tension. He delivers the news that Seamus, Caitlin’s missing husband, has been found face down, preserved by the acid in a bog, hands tied behind him and a bullet in the back of his head. The mystery of his disappearance deepens because he was not involved in The Troubles. There is an Aunt Pat and Uncle Patrick, as well

as an often mentally absent Aunt Maggie, whose roles are largely to unveil past history even as their passions deﬁne them as three dimensional characters within the family and their country. Their narratives give their lives shape and substance. With the discovery of the body, the past meets the future as Muldoon attempts to contain the truth of the missing husband’s murder from emerging. In the process, other truths seep out in the appropriately furnished great room of the farmhouse that serves as the only site where all subsequent action takes place. In the beginning, the viewer is puzzled as to who the family members are and their relationships to each other, which create an air of mystery. As the plot develops, the answers powerfully emerge, carrying us along, absorbed and engaged. And while the plot is masterfully orchestrated, I don’t want to give away the most important details in the hope that you will still get tickets and join me in your admiration for a remarkable play.
