County U.S. Attorney: $147M stock manipulation scheme targeted senior citizens Defendants from Port Jeff, Mount Sinai, Coram, Cold Spring Harbor, Dix Hills among those indicted By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewspapers.com In a plot that could have been lifted straight from the script of “The Wolf of Wall Street,” six North Shore residents were among 14 indicted in federal court in Brooklyn July 13 for their alleged roles in a $147 million stock manipulation scheme, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York. A press release regarding the indictment alleged the defendants defrauded investors by obtaining shares in five publicly traded companies from insiders at the companies for below-market prices, artificially drove up the prices of the shares, while “aggressively and repeatedly” calling and emailing victims to purchase shares — oftentimes senior citizens — and then sold their own shares between January 2014 and July 2017. “Manipulating stock prices, as alleged in this case, to appear more attractive to investors, is a deliberate attempt at sabotaging fair market trading,” Assistant Director-inCharge for the FBI’s New York field office William Sweeney Jr. said in a statement. Sweeney and acting U.S. Attorney Bridget Rohde read the indictments. “Manipulation, at its core, is a true act of deception, especially when the elderly are targeted. This scheme involved an incredible amount of money, more than $147 million. That’s no

small change for even the savviest investor. As evidenced by our arrests today, we take these matters seriously, and will continue to pursue those who make victims out of unwitting participants in these schemes.” Managers of My Street Research — a Melville based investment firm — Erik Matz, 44, of Mount Sinai and Ronald Hardy, 42, of Port Jefferson were among those indicted. They also engaged in a scheme to launder about $14.7 million in proceeds obtained as a result of the scheme, according to Rohde’s office. The government restrained Matz’s Mount Sinai home and seized bank accounts containing alleged criminally obtained money. The attorney representing Matz and Hardy did not respond to a request for comment. A phone message requesting comment from My Street Research was not returned. Dennis Verderosa, 67, and Emin L. Cohen, 33, both of Coram, and McArthur Jean, 34, of Dix Hills were among those listed as “cold-callers” for the operation. Cohen’s and Verderosa’s attorneys each declined to comment via email. Jean’s attorney did not respond to a request for comment. Robert Gilbert, 51, of Cold Spring Harbor and owner of the investment firm Accredited Investor Preview was also among the 14 people indicted. “We’re still studying the indictment, but Mr. Gilbert is mentioned substantively in

Defendants charged with: • Conspiracy to commit securities fraud • Conspiracy to commit wire fraud • Conspiracy to commit money laundering • Substantive securities fraud

only one paragraph,” Gilbert’s attorney Ira Sorkin said in a phone interview. “He has not been incarcerated, and there is no claim any of his assets have been frozen as is the case with some of the others. Until we have a chance to read further into the indictment we will have no further comment.” The five companies whose stocks were

pushed by the “pump-and-dump” scheme were National Waste Management Holdings, Inc., CES Synergies, Inc., Grilled Cheese Truck, Hydrocarb Energy Corporation and Intelligent Content Enterprises, Inc.

County ‘LIRR riders have been held hostage by this unsatisfactory service.’ — Chad Lupinacci

chad Lupinacci, above, is working to help riders get rebates for Lirr train tickets, on left.

LIRR riders may see relief in the form of rebates By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com For Long Island Rail Road commuters traveling during the “Summer of Hell,” one Huntington lawmaker is working to give riders some relief from delays and schedule changes that have resulted since the start of repair projects at Penn Station page a22 earlier this month. State Assemblyman Chad Lupinacci (R-Huntington Station) is currently drafting a bill that would give riders a rebate for their weekly or monthly train tickets. “There’s now a decrease in quality and efficiency that’s no longer just a strain on riders’ schedules,” Lupinacci said in a phone interview. “It’s now affecting professional and personal lives, making commuters late to business meetings and family dinners.” The state assemblyman said he started working on the draft for the Long Island Railroad Rider Rebate Bill after he received several hundred calls from constituents voicing their concerns and complaints with the current train service. According to Lupinacci the rebate would equal 25 percent of the price of a rider’s weekly or monthly ticket. If and when the bill passes, customers would be able to redeem rebates at ticket booths at train stations. “I am introducing a bill which will propose a rebate for LIRR riders who have been held hostage by this unsatisfactory service,” he said. “If the entire LIRR is going to be affected by this construction, it is only appropriate that we compensate all who rely on the train for their livelihoods.” Lupinacci said he thinks the bill will receive support in the Assembly, and has already talked to several of his colleagues

about the bill. He also said the bill has no current end time, as the rebates would cease to be approved once the railroad finishes with construction and service goes back to normal. The state assemblyman is not the only official addressing the commuting chaos. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) announced last month the entire Metropolitan Transportation Agency was in a state of emergency due to current delays and shutdowns of trains, subways and more. “As New Yorkers adjust their plans, we are doing everything possible to ease the burden on commuters and travelers,” Cuomo said in a statement. He committed an additional $1 billion to the MTA in the capital plan, has proposed expanded limits on carpool lanes, and park and ride busing but has not yet proposed a rebate for New York riders. “After three weeks with no response from either Gov. Cuomo or MTA LIRR President Patrick Nowakowski, it is time for me and my legislative colleagues to take matters into our own hands,” Lupinacci said. In a letter to Cuomo, Lupinacci urged support from the governor. “As a duly-elected member of the New York State Assembly, I encourage you to designate funding that will explicitly benefit the riders of the Long Island Rail Road, with the hope that this gesture may restore faith in the system and illustrate that the State is doing its part to rectify this increasingly burdensome time for railroad travelers,” he wrote. Long Island residents have taken to Twitter, Facebook and more social media sites to express their frustration with their current traveling experiences on the Long Island Rail Road. Twitter user Jay Gelman expressed his disdain July 11 with the service. “Where is the planning??!!,” he asked.

Town ‘If we can make some kind of difference in their lives and be a positive role model, that’s really all that we can ask for.’ — Dena Miceli

Clockwise from left, Suffolk County 6th Precinct Community Liaison Officer Will Zieman and Crime Section Officer dena Miceli talk to residents about issues and concerns; and, with COPe Sergeant Walter Langdon talk to Jake and Rhiannon donovan about what cops do in the area; Zieman talks to sisters natalie and Katherine Byrnes; and the girls proudly wear their police badge stickers, on left, received after they asked him what it takes to become a cop.

Having a cup of coffee with a cop can go a long way Members of the 6th Precinct meet with residents as part of program meant to connect cops with the people they serve By Kevin Redding kevin@tbrnewspapers.com Suffolk County police officers recently paid a lengthy visit to Park Avenue Plaza in Miller Place — not to make arrests, but to make friends. Three members of the 6th Precinct mingled with residents of all ages at Crazy Crepe Cafe July 13 for “Coffee with a Cop,” a monthly initiative that gives police officers and community members a chance to meet one another, discuss concerns, or just share a coffee and some laughs. Originally launched in 2011 in Hawthorne, California to better connect officers with the citizens they serve, the concept was adopted by each of the Suffolk County’s precincts just over a year ago. “It’s a great opportunity for people to approach the police in a nice, calm setting,” said Sergeant Walter Langdon of the Community Oriented Police Enforcement unit. “Usually when we have interactions with the public it’s when dealing with something bad or stressful. [Coffee with a cop] is a way for them to see we’re not just here to arrest people, we’re here to help people and give them advice any way we can.”

Community Liaison Officer Will Zieman called the initiative a “home run” for residents. He said discussions with them ranged from suspicious activity in their neighborhoods, to the county’s heroin problem, to future employment with the police force. “It’s a unique forum and it’s unconventional by prior standards in a sense because time isn’t always there for us to have that extended conversation with people,” Zieman said. “So here we can engage on a totally different level, and it’s really cool and we see incredible results from this.” With crayons and junior police badge stickers in hand, Zieman knelt at a table to chat with 7-year-olds Natalie and Katherine Byrnes, who asked him what it took to be a the fear, the intimidation and the stereotypes for both kids and adults,” said Donovan, who police officer. “The most important thing right now is wanted to speak to the officers about escalateverything you do in school and how you ing drug problems in her community. “Unfortunately, Rocky Point is changing behave and interact with people matters,” Zieman told the Miller Place elementary stu- and not for the better, especially on a particular side of town,” Donodents. “School is super van said. “It’s hitting important, because they way too close to home. go back to your schoolI do see police more viswork, check report cards ible than I recall growing and want to know what up, which does provides kind of students you a sense of security.” were, and if you pass Her 11-year-old that process, you can bedaughter Rhiannon said come a police officer.” she likes that the police When Zieman gave are interacting with the them free passes for community. a police event at Sky “To some people, Zone Trampoline Park in cops are just, ‘you did Mount Sinai next month, this, so you’re going to the girls beamed. jail,’ but cops here want Natalie said of meet— Debbie Donovan people to enjoy theming the officer, “I thought selves,” she said. it was awesome!” Sixth Precinct Crime Sections Officer Rocky Point resident Debbie Donovan, who wandered into the cafe for lunch with Dena Miceli, a plainclothes cop who exher kids not knowing about the event, said it plained to Rhiannon and her brother Jake about daily tasks on the job, said it means a was a great idea. “I think people need to see the presence of lot when kids show an interest. “If we can make some kind of difference the police and this takes away the distance,

in their lives and be a positive role model, that’s really all that we can ask for,” Miceli said. “This is such a helpful thing not just for residents, but for us also.” Zieman said through the initiative, the department aims to collaborate with local businesses and elected officials within each precinct to try to expand community involvement as much as possible. When he reached out to Crazy Crepe Cafe on a whim, manager Nick Mauceri was immediately on board. “We love getting involved with the community in any way and this is something different than we’ve ever done before,” Mauceri said. “The conversations and exchanges are so personable and relatable, it’s great to see.” Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) worked alongside the 6th Precinct to make the event happen. “The best resource for our law enforcement are the residents and they need to understand the police are here to help them,” Anker said. “Communication ties the fibers in our community. This is a great way to encourage people to create a relationship with our police.” The next “Coffee with a Cop” will be held at Smith Haven Mall Aug. 3 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. All ages are welcome.

Stony Brook University’s Blood Bank can help save lives Stony Brook University Hospital has a Blood Bank Donor Room, where individuals can donate blood at their convenience, and the blood products are used to help individuals in the local community. The independent collection facility, which is not affiliated with the American Red Cross or New York Blood Supply, provides patients at the Stony Brook University Hospital with blood products they need. While blood is the most common form of donation received, platelets, which are needed by adults and children to treat many different diseases, are also collected. Located on the fifth floor — main lobby level — of Stony Brook University Hospital, the Blood Bank is depen-

dent on the generosity of the public since there is no substitute for blood or platelets. There are several reasons why donating blood or platelets at the Blood Bank is a good idea. Accommodating the public is of the utmost importance, therefore, the Blood Bank is open six days a week: Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Walk-ins are welcome and parking is vali-

dated in the Hospital Patient/Visitor parking lot. This means donors can make an appointment which fits their schedule, and don’t have to wait on a long line and get rushed in or out. All of the blood that is donated at the Blood Bank stays at the hospital, possibly helping a neighbor or a friend. In addition, registered nurses provide one-on-one personal care to every donor for their entire

visit. The Blood Bank is committed to the well-being of its donors and their wellness always surpasses the need for blood. The demand for blood in our country is great and where you decide to donate is not nearly as important as the act of donating itself. Nevertheless, the Blood Bank hopes that you will consider donating with it in the future. For more information about donating blood, 631-444-3662, or go online to donateblood.stonybrookmedicine.edu and schedule an appointment to donate blood or platelets and help the Stony Brook University Hospital Blood Bank save lives. — RITA J.

County Eye in the sky: Suffolk implements new security cameras By Kyle Barr Be careful what actions you take, because the police are watching. Suffolk County Police Department officials announced the implementation of 12 overt surveillance cameras throughout the county July 10, in an effort to deter crime. The pilot program began in October 2016 with the implementation of a single camera in both the 1st and 2nd precincts. Suffolk County Police Commissioner Timothy Sini said that cameras were installed in the five other precincts early June. Two of these cameras were positioned in Huntington Town, with one displayed on top of a telephone pole outside a small shopping center at the corner of Rockne Street and Broadway in Greenlawn. “We want people to know about it.” Sini said of the camera program. “Local government is doing everything in their power to increase the quality of life in our communities.” Suffolk County Legislator William “Doc” Spencer (D-Centerport) said that the town is dealing with the impact of several recent crimes, specifically recent shootings in Greenlawn that are “all too fresh in our minds.” “These incidents of crime take away the feeling of safety,” Spencer said. “We will not tolerate violence in our community. These cameras put criminals on notice to say, ‘Don’t come here.’” The cameras are full color and full motion, and can be accessed remotely through any officer or SCPD official that has access to

Wi-Fi. The camera equipment was purchased for about $130,000 in a program funded by SCPD asset forfeiture dollars. However, the plan for a new real-time crime center, part of which will be to monitor the overt security cameras, will be created using SCPD’s normal operating budget. The cameras are additions to a surveillance system that includes a number of license-plate readers along intersections and hidden cameras placed in areas such as local public parks. “While the discreet cameras catch crime, the overt cameras do the same but they deter crime as well,” Sini said. SCPD officials said that depending on community feedback, the cameras could be moved into different positions or to different areas. On the topic of privacy, Sini responded that people should not expect privacy in a public space. “The message we want to send is think twice before doing something illegal — think twice before doing something that demotes the quality of life for our residents, because we are watching,” Sini said. Several nearby residents were happy to have the new camera system in their community. “It’s a blessing,” said Greenlawn resident Earline Robinson about the implementation of the camera. She said she was concerned about crime, including gang activity, in the area and especially those of several shootings that happened in the community just in the past month. President of Greenlawn Civic Association, Dick Holmes, said he had high expectations

Suffolk County Police Commissioner Tim Sini speaks about new police cameras at each of the seven precincts during a press conference in Greenlawn. for the cameras and the police department. “I think it’s a great idea,” he said. “We’ll see what it does and I guess we’ll see how it goes from there.” The cameras are meant to be hung from telephone poles and are colored bright white and wrapped with a blue stripe that reads “police.” The camera positioned outside the shopping center in Greenlawn looks down at a strip that has been the site of a number of crimes, including several robberies.

One Stop Deli owner Mohammad Afzaal said that in the nine years he’s owned his store, it had been raided four times. Once, robbers broke into the safe behind the counter, and several times he had walked in to find the store in disarray. From those robberies, he estimates he lost about $11,000. “Sometimes my camera doesn’t work,” Afzaal said, pointing to the camera hanging in the corner of his store. “But the camera out there, it will work.”

Legislator Tom Muratore (R-Ronkonkoma) visited the Centereach Senior Club, which meets each Tuesday at the New Village Recreation Center in Centereach. At the meeting, he handed out helpful resources explaining the available county resources and services, followed by a question and answer period. He also sat with a few members to hear their life stories. One club member, Anthony Gasparino, 102, spoke with Muratore about his career as a New York City

police officer and how times have changed over his long life span. “I have no cellphone and no computer, and I think that’s better,” Gasparino said. The legislator said he liked how the club is comprised of members who he said show great interest in the community they live in, and said their opinions matter. “I thank them for allowing me to meet with them,” he said. “Overall, senior citizens make up 19.9 percent of the registered voters in Suffolk County, so their voices must be heard and their needs addressed.”

In the second year of the Above the Rim tournament, sponsored by Brookhaven Town Councilman Kevin LaValle (RSelden), boys and girls competed in separate sessions for a championship title. With new courts, backboards and rims, and a new spray park, walking trail and pickleball courts, the park complex has undergone multiple renovations since LaValle took office four years ago.

OpiniOn Editorial

Letters to the editor

In response to a narrow-minded letter

File photo

Assemblyman Chad Lupinacci is working to get Long Island Rail Road commuters a refund after weeks of disrupted service.

It has been a long time since I felt the need to respond to a letter to the editor, but the first paragraph in the letter entitled “Praying the LGBT+ Community Repents” in the July 13 edition of The Village Beacon Record is so filled with narrow mindedness I feel the need to tell everyone in the LGBT+ community that not everyone feels that way. How ridiculous to say members of that community are getting “preferential treatment.” They are finally getting equal treatment. How ridiculous to say “will the pluses ever end.” Everything is on a spectrum, to use a word made popular by autism awareness, for example sense of humor, how messy or neat you are, etc.

Your sex drive, sexual identity and preference of partner are three separate facets of the psyche. Most people will fall within the middle of the bell curve for each, but if they don’t it doesn’t make it wrong. It made it less common and less understood thousands of years ago when men were writing their scrolls that eventually became the Bible. Understanding nature bordered on the non-existent. You are entitled to believe what you want. That is the beauty of our Constitution. We can all have our choice of religion. We can have no religion or believe in spirituality or be a naturalist. If you really followed the Bible as God’s word you would not cherry

pick the parts you want to follow and the thousands of parts you choose to ignore. At a minimum, you would dress as the ultraconservative Jewish community dresses since that is all prescribed in the Bible. In closing, since we were created as a secular nation, we should not legislate per any one view of religion as the nations do that are governed as theocracies. If you identify as a Christian there are churches that have a wonderful open door policy as Jesus did. The United Church of Christ is one example. Love is love.

Deirdre Dubato Mount Sinai

Relief from the summer ‘heat’ We’re all Americans, with the same rights Many Long Island Rail Road customers have spent weeks dealing with train delays and schedule changes due to repairs at Pennsylvania Station. Recently, state Assemblyman Chad Lupinacci (R-Huntington Station) drafted the Long Island Rail Road Rider Rebate bill that would provide commuters partial reimbursement for their weekly or monthly train tickets, and we applaud him for his efforts. In a way, the assemblyman has shown the perfect example of customer service, as he was motivated after receiving calls from constituents who were dissatisfied with the LIRR’s service. If the bill is passed, commuters will receive a rebate equivalent to 25 percent of their ticket. While being compensated for unsatisfactory service is an excellent idea, especially for working people, we know a good or bad commute can set the tone for the day. Our hope is that additional legislators will work on measures to ease the burdens of Long Island residents who commute into the city. One proposal of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) is to expand the limits of carpool lanes. Currently, on the Long Island Expressway between Exits 32 to 64, a vehicle must contain two or more passengers to use the High Occupancy Vehicle lanes Monday through Friday from 6 to 10 a.m. and 3 to 8 p.m. If time limits are condensed or temporarily lifted while the LIRR experiences problems, more people would have the option to drive and park at locations closer to the city where they can then travel into Manhattan by subway or bus. It also helps those who make the regular commute by car feel less stressed by freeing up the lanes they use daily. We feel another option that would be environmentally friendly and reduce congestion in the boroughs is to offer businesses incentives to allow employees to work from home. In an era where the majority of people have access to computers, unlimited calling on their telephones and video chat services such as Skype, working from home is easier than ever. Since workers wouldn’t have to leave their homes, the option would enable them to be punctual for meetings, even if they are calling in, or be on time for family and social obligations. One individual or even a group of individuals may not have much influence over the LIRR; however, when legislators join forces with constituents, results can be achieved. We hope they are listening to the problems LIRR commuters are vocalizing during a period dubbed the “summer of hell” by Cuomo.

With all due respect for the Rev. Ronald Stelzer, I vehemently disagree with his letter, “Praying the LGBT+ community repents,” in the July 13 issue of The Village Beacon Record. Rev. Stelzer expresses an opinion, which desires a return to the pre-June 3, 1969 Stonewall Inn protest era when the LGBT community remained in the closet. As a Catholic, I was taught that all persons “were created in the image and likeness of God.” I don’t believe there were exclusions of the LGBT community. In the Tony

Award- winning musical, “La Cage aux Folles,” George Hearn proudly proclaims, “I am what I am, a special creation.” God made different sexes, races, varied intellectual and physical abilities and sexual preferences. He doesn’t make mistakes and a loving God expects us to respect those varied human beings. Like the labor, civil rights and gender equality movements, the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender movement has produced global changes in attitude. The purposes of gay pride parades are to create unity in protesting shame, social

stigma, hate, prejudice and discrimination. They are a public demand for civil and human rights, equal recognition of their life, liberty and right to pursue happiness. Rev. Stelzer does not commend anyone walking the New York City Pride March, but these marches throughout the world celebrate pride, dignity, self-affirmation and human differences. They are as American as apple pie.

A thank you for keeping history alive I want to thank you for sending reporter Kevin Redding to cover the story about our young benefactor, Jack Soldano. The article “Miller Place kid is selling comics for a cause” in the July 6 edition of The Village Beacon Record was spot on. The Miller Place-Mount Sinai Historical Society was also so excited to be called upon to participate in the filming of “One Life to Give” and we think this is such a wonderful, patriotic project. It is important to keep history alive and films that portray the facts with authenticity serve all of us well. As you may know, the circa 1720 William Miller House, located at 75 North Country Road in Miller Place where some filming took place, is open every Saturday noon to 2 p.m. for guided tours. It would be so helpful to

The William Miller House in Miller Place. see this listed in the dates and times column for people looking for something worthwhile to do. We also provide private tours by appointment. Call 631-476-5742 for bookings or visit www.mpmshistoricalsociety.org for more information.

OpiniOn Taking time to smell the scents of summer

efore we race through August and land on September, I’d like to suggest that we stop and smell the roses, among many other scents of summer. At the top of the list of smells, on an island where marine life is never far away, is the smell of the ocean. As we lounge on our soft towels, caressed by a gentle breeze, we can breathe in the reviving, sweet smell of By Daniel Dunaief salty seawater. Go to any beach during a summer day and you’ll also find the odor of sunscreen filling the air, courtesy of those spray-on bottles that seem to miss their target and head for the nostrils of the near-

D. None of the above

est sunbather as often as they reach exposed skin. While you may not want to eat sunscreen in getting away from your office, the smell can help you appreciate your favorite season, as is the case for my wife. When you’re driving around town, you might reach a stop light or stop sign adjacent to a freshly cut lawn. I’ve always connected that smell with baseball fields, primarily because people started trimming their lawns around the same time as I played my abbreviated baseball season. When I was younger, I had as many games on my schedule in a year as this next generation seems to play in a month. The atmospheric conditions in this light-intensive time collaborate to liberate the smell of mouthwatering food. At night or on weekends, the smell of a cookout can often encourage us to make a U-turn back to the supermarket to pick up some burgers, hot dogs and chicken. I can’t drive anywhere near The

Good Steer in Lake Grove without my nose acting like a sensory GPS, taking me back to my childhood and the spectacular onion rings that filled my plate. Stand near just about any bakery in town and you’ll often have the opportunity to enjoy the best form of marketing, as the scent of freshly baked breads and cakes drifts down the street, leading us by our noses to their glass-enclosed treats. When we were younger, my mother used to get on a sailboat, unpack our pretzels, turkey sandwiches and cold waters, pick up her head as if an old friend had called to her from the middle of the Long Island Sound and proclaim, “Oh, smell.” Now, I recognize that the world is filled with the kind of foul odors that can turn a subway ride into a trip to “Dante’s Inferno” and that a visit to a friend’s house can also bring the pungency of wet dog to our nostrils. The heat and the humidity, after

all, is an equal-opportunity odor elevator, bringing everything to our attention including an awareness that the guy in the car next to us had garlic at lunch or the woman in line at the deli fell into the marsh in the morning. Still, I prefer to focus on the proverbial odor glass as being half-full, as did some of my friends, who shared their favorite summer scents. One person’s favorite smell is that of rain after the first drops fall, while another enjoys honeysuckle and the smell of jasmine from her native Beirut. A third enjoys the scent of coconut with lime or pineapple, and a fourth sings the praises of pine trees, mushrooms and wildflowers that remind him of his youth. When we breathe in deeply enough these moments of summer rain, honeysuckle, coconuts and wildflowers, we can slow down the treadmill of time.

Morning people and night owls survive the night

ere is an interesting idea. We know that sleep patterns change as we age. Older adults seem to have more difficulty getting an uninterrupted night’s sleep. Some maintain they need less sleep as they get older, although there is scientific dispute about that. Now researchers are suggesting that such changes “may be an evolutionary adaptation that helped our ancestors survive the night,” according to a New York Times SciBy Leah S. Dunaief ence item titled, “Alive One More Day, Thanks to Grandma’s Insomnia” by Aneri Pattani. Younger people tend to stay awake later and sleep later. With different hours for sleeping, at least

Between you and me

one generation was awake or lightly dozing at all times through human history to be on guard for the rest, a sort of inadvertent night watch. That makes me feel a bit better when I wake up at 3 a.m. and can’t fall back to sleep. Now I know I am on guard duty and there is a purpose to my tossing and turning. Curiously I can usually fall asleep again with the breaking dawn and always half an hour before the alarm is set to go off. So maybe there is something to the night watch theory. With the coming light, others will awake, it is safer, and sleep can be resumed. Come to think of it, the whole idea of sleep is compelling. Sleep, for all the studies, is still mysterious. The ancients revered sleep for what was revealed through dreams. That’s also true for some not-so-ancients, right up to Tevye in “Fiddler on the Roof,” when he persuades his wife to let their daughter marry the poor tailor, not the rich butcher, because of his alleged dream. We spend about one-third of

our lives asleep, or at least we are supposed to according to medical standards, yet there are some who resent that time lost. Sleep refreshes us, reenergizes us, even strengthens our immune systems. Yet some say, “I’ll sleep when I am dead,” and try to plow through the days with just short naps. Sooner or later, that deficit catches up with them. Those are the folks who can be found asleep on the subway, at the opera or during an early morning lecture. How we go to sleep is as fascinating as the fact that we do. There are those who read themselves to sleep, whose eyes get heavy to the point that they can just drop off. Some have to unwind from their activities for a couple of hours in front of the TV before they can relax sufficiently to put themselves to sleep. I am one of those teapots: Just tip me over and pour me out. When it is time to go to sleep, I get into bed and most of the time, once prone, I almost immediately fall asleep.

While that last scenario sounds preferable, we who fall asleep easily need sleep urgently. I go from 9 or 10 to zero energy in remarkably short order. Then, if I don’t allow myself sleep, I am almost in pain. I used to sleep eight-and-a-half uninterrupted hours, then wake up ready to sing, but now there are those interruptions. Biological clocks are also interesting. There are those who need to go to bed at 9 or 10 o’clock at night, and then again there are some who don’t feel sleepy until 1:30 or 2 o’clock in the morning. Those are usually classified as morning people or night owls. It’s usually best if those opposites aren’t married to each other. But then again, they can take turns feeding the newborn or standing the night watch.
