STATE NY launches drug take-back program for pharmacies With the recent launch of the first statewide pharmaceutical take-back initiative, New York residents are encouraged to be more careful, and environmentally friendly, when it comes to getting rid of their old and unwanted medications.

On Dec. 28, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation announced that 80 retail pharmacies, hospitals and long-term care facilities across the state will be the first to participate in its $2 million pilot pharmaceutical take-back program, and encouraged more to get on board.

This program allows residents to safely dispose any unused and potentially harmful pills into a drop box at these locations beginning in April, when the boxes are slated for installation.

Once collected, the drugs will be weighed, tracked and incinerated.

The free, volunteer public service, funded by the state Environmental Protection Fund, is modeled after a successful safe disposal program started at King Kullen in 2014 — which, in the past three years, has safely disposed more than 7,600 pounds of pharmaceutical drugs — and aims to improve the region’s drinking water, which has become increasingly contaminated by people flushing medications down the toilet and pouring them down the sink.

Flushed pharmaceutical drugs have been found in state lakes, rivers and streams, negatively affecting the waterways and the wildlife

A demonstration is done at the King Kullen in Patchogue, showing how to use the drug take-back drop box. that inhabit them.

Roughly 40 percent of groundwater samples have trace amounts of pharmaceutical drugs, with the most common being antibiotics and anticonvulsants, according to Adrienne Esposito, executive director of Citizens Campaign for the Environment.

“Prescription drugs should come from our pharmacists — not from our faucets,” said Esposito, whose Farmingdale-based organization founded the King Kullen program and lobbied the state to provide funding in its budget in 2016 for the DEC to create the pilot program.

“Pharmaceutical drugs are considered an ‘emerging contaminant’ in our drinking water and the flushing of unwanted drugs is one contributor to this growing problem. Safe disposal programs [like this] are critical in combating this health risk. The goal really is to pro-

vide people with an easy, safe and convenient option to dispose of their drugs. We can get ahead of this problem now rather than wait until it becomes a bigger problem later.”

The pilot program is currently open and is accepting applications, according to the DEC website, which also outlines that the $2 million will be used to cover the full cost of purchasing U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration-compliant medication drop boxes, as well as the cost of pickup, transport and destruction of collected waste pharmaceuticals for a two-year period.

Esposito said the program also serves to prevent accidental exposure or intentional misuse of prescription drugs.

“This is a service that all pharmacies should be providing their customers,” she said. “Not only does it protect the environment, it will

keep drugs out of the hands of people who shouldn’t have them.”

While there aren’t many participants so far in Suffolk — among six volunteers are Huntington’s Country Village Chemists, St. James Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center and Stony Brook Student Health Services — many local pharmacy owners said they were interested in enrolling, while others have already been offering something similar.

“We’ve been looking into it for a while now,” said Michael Nastro, owner of Fairview Pharmacy in Port Jefferson Station, who has been referring his customers to local police precincts to dispose their old medications. “Apparently this year they’re going to make it more readily accessible. It’s a good service to my customers and patients. It makes them feel better, helps me feel better and helps the environment. It’s something we want to provide at some point.”

At Heritage Chemists Pharmacy & Boutique in Mount Sinai, owner Frank Bosio said he offered a take-back box for more than two years, but funding ended.

“It was a great program and the community loved it,” said Bosio with interest in enrolling in the new pilot program. “I definitely want to get on board with this.”

Esposito made clear that most disposal systems outside of the launched program aren’t authorized by the DEC or other agencies, and hopes the list for this particular effort will grow.

Retail pharmacies, hospitals and long-term care facilities can enroll to participate in the pilot pharmaceutical take-back program on the DEC’s website at www.dec.ny.gov/.

Code officers share details about lifesaving incident

BY ALEX PETROSKI ALEX@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

ALEX PETROSKI

Port Jefferson code officers James Murdocco and Brent Broere are quick thinkers and a dynamic team, and thanks to their efforts, a young man who suffered a drug overdose is alive today.

Despite being delayed by a passing train in late December, when the constables arrived at the scene of a parked car on Belle Terre Road, they sprung into action. Broere had prepared a Narcan dose, the drug used to reverse the effects of an opioid-related overdose, on the way. When the pair arrived at the parking lot of Fairfield at Port Jefferson apartment complex, Murdocco took the syringe and raced to the car.

“He’s pretty much done,” Murdocco recalled thinking that Dec. 22 night when he saw the victim behind the already opened driver’s seat door, whose head was leaning back against the headrest. He said the female passenger was “worked up,” and even tried hitting the victim’s chest in an effort to spark a sign of life. Murdocco climbed in the car, straddling the unresponsive victim next to the girl who was letting out harrowing screams at the comatose man, hoping for a response.

“He was actually purple,” a witness said of the victim. “The situation heightened when no pulse was noted for some time.

This incident brought fear to my family — especially during the holiday season. My young ones were in shock.”

Murdocco administered the first dose of Narcan in the victim’s nostril, but it had little effect. Broere loaded up a second,

Port Jefferson Village constables Brent Broere and James Murdocco stronger dose and his partner tried the other nostril, completely emptying the syringe in one shot. The victim responded so well he was able to exit the car and put on his own jacket.

“This young man regained his life directly in front of everyone,” the witness wrote in a letter to Port Jefferson Village, discussing the buzz it stirred and pleading for proclamations to recognize the officers’ heroic efforts. “This truly was a holiday blessing. Although a tragedy, these officers saved a tragedy from becoming a parent’s worse nightmare.”

The constables were honored by Port

Jefferson Village during a Jan. 3 board meeting for their actions that night.

Code officers Michael Hanley and John Vinicombe, who arrived on the scene after Murdocco and Broere, were also recognized.

According to Murdocco, the officers are able to hear 911 calls made in the Port Jeff area, and are encouraged to respond to calls requiring immediate aid, oftentimes faster than Suffolk County police officers.

He and his partner were in their patrol car when they heard the call, and planned to make their way to the scene, briefly waiting on the south side of the Long Island

Rail Road tracks on Main Street as a train went through. While they waited, they encountered a county police officer who was also headed to the scene, but who did not have the equipment or training to administer Narcan. Village constables are not required to undergo Narcan training, but they are encouraged to do so, and luckily, Murdocco and Broere voluntarily took the course on their own time.

“These two officers were absolutely incredible,” the eyewitness said. “The officer that jumped into the car acted so fast that he had no protective gloves, and was exposed with the young man’s blood. Several neighbors asked to assist, yet he declined, and was able to clean out all of the areas exposed.”

According to accounts from both officers and an eyewitness, the scene was emotional and tense. Murdocco, who works in a state detention center in addition to his duties in Port Jeff, used the word “gruesome” to describe what he saw.

Broere, a Northport High School graduate and Marine Corps veteran in a scout sniper platoon, had been deployed on multiple combat tours and was awarded a Purple Heart after being shot through both of his legs. He returned to Long Island about six months ago after spending eight years in North Carolina working in various law enforcement capacities.

“The chief and the deputy chief and the mayor did a really good job by pairing me and Jimmy up together,” Broere said.

“We’re a good match. As partners, we kind of know what the other one is thinking before he has to say it. In a situation like that seconds count.”

Comsewogue elementary school principal to retire

BY SABRINA PETROSKI

APRIL VICTOR

Goodbyes are never easy, especially when a school district has to say it to a dedicated, longtime advocate for students.

At the end of the 2017-18 school year, April Victor will be retiring from her position as the principal of Terryville Road Elementary School in the Comsewogue School District. Victor, who began in January 2001, said the past seventeen-and-a-half years have been some of the most rewarding in her life.

She said she made it her mission to turn her school into a family, an effort that has encouraged parents, teachers and students alike to work together to foster a safe and happy community.

“That’s what makes leaving so hard, because I’m leaving a family,” she said.

Victor said her proudest achievement was making the school a place where the children are put first, and the teachers and parents have a say in decision making. Once a month the district’s parent teacher association celebrates students who are seen as outstanding citizens, an initiative inspired by the longtime principal. Nominated by their teachers, each student receives a cer-

tificate and their picture is put up in the hallway of the school.

“We have to celebrate them, build the kids up,” she said. “We have to be kind and thoughtful, and care about our school.”

Comsewogue Superintendent Joe Rella praised Victor as being a brilliant educator and leader, with the ability to build a great community. Rella’s grandson attends Terryville Road Elementary School, giving the superintendent multiple reasons to keep a close eye on the school’s goings on, and the district leader beamed when asked about the work Victor has been doing in her school.

“April Victor has such a tremendous impact on the district and school community,” Rella said. “She will be missed beyond words and is a truly wonderful person.”

In 2007, Victor was named a TBR News Media Woman of the Year in education, for her leadership skills and her efforts to make sure her kids got every opportunity to fulfill their potential. Her peers spoke in glowing terms about their departing colleague.

“Ms. Victor has long had a positive effect on all who have had the opportunity to pass through the halls and classrooms of Terryville Elementary School,” said Robert

Terryville Road Elementary School principal, April Victor, with some of her students.

Pearl, principal of Boyle Road Elementary School. “From children to faculty and staff, she has always been a remarkable anchor within the Terryville community. Her educational expertise, ability to understand the needs of her students and her compassion have enabled her to make a difference in the lives of her students each day. Personally, she has been an outstanding role model for me as I transitioned from teacher to principal. She truly is the epitome of what

every administrator strives to be.”

Victor delivered one final message to the Comsewogue community.

“Thank you for the opportunity to be with your kids and to lead them,” she said. “It’s been a blessing and I hope I made a difference. I’ll miss the energy from the children, and being able to witness their hard work and laughter. I will continue to pray for the community, for safety, joy and love.”

Mather Hospital, located at 75 North Country Road in Port Jefferson.

Classes will be held from 6 to 7 p.m. on Feb. 1, 8, 15 and 22 and March 1 and 8, with a reunion on March 29.

“Cigarettes kill 1,200 Americans every day — more people die each year from smoking than from murder, AIDS, suicide, drugs, car crashes and alcohol combined,” Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) said. “It is so important that those who are struggling with nicotine addiction receive the support they need. Programs such as Learn to Be Tobacco Free help our loved ones break free from nicotine addiction.”

History made: Toulon sworn in as sheriff 

He spent 22 years working at Rikers

Cuomo administered oath of office

BY KEVIN REDDING KEVIN@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

KEVIN REDDING

Just days before the nation celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. Day and his famous dream, Errol Toulon (D) made history by taking the oath as Suffolk County sheriff, making him Long Island’s first AfricanAmerican elected official in a nonjudicial countywide position.

Toulon, 55, was officially sworn in by New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) Jan. 12 during an inauguration ceremony held at Van Nostrand Theater on the Brentwood campus of Suffolk County Community College. Also in attendance were his wife Christina, family members, friends and town and county elected officials, including County Executive Steve Bellone (D), recently swornin District Attorney Tim Sini (D), Presiding Officer DuWayne Gregory (D-Amityville) and former sheriff Vincent DeMarco (C). A former Rikers Island corrections officer and captain who emerged victorious against Republican candidate Larry Zacarese after just two months of campaigning, Toulon entered the race determined to utilize his more than 35 years in corrections and law enforcement to tackle gangs and the opioid crisis, while creating a stronger environment within the county’s jails.

“I have to say, this is a long way from

my days being a batboy with the New York Yankees,” Toulon laughed, referring to his two-year stint in the 1970s serving on the team. “For me, this race was a whirlwind, but this job is one I’ve been preparing for my entire life.”

After serving at Rikers Island from 1982 to 2004, starting in 2012, Toulon worked for two years in Bellone’s administration as assistant deputy county executive for public safety. In 2014 he was named deputy commissioner of operations for the New York City Department of Corrections. In the midst of his career, he has also beaten cancer twice — in 1996 and 2004.

“He is a man who has confronted great challenges in his life,” Bellone said. “I have personally seen him face these difficulties with incredible grace and dignity and fortitude. He has confronted all these challenges and has perseverance, which is exactly what you want to have in a leader.

I am proud to be here today to support a friend, a colleague and a leader.”

During the ceremony, Cuomo called attention to the historical significance of Toulon’s victory.

“It says something about the people of Suffolk County, says something about the progress of society, says something about acceptance and it says that we’re one step closer to Martin Luther King’s dream of one day judging people by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin,” Cuomo said. “This sheriff is different in a number of ways, but the first precedent he sets is that he’s the most qualified man to ever serve in this position. I am selfishly overjoyed by Sheriff Toulon’s election because in government, job number one is public safety.”

Toulon assured the cheering audience he is committed to making the county a better and safer place for all, with plans

He also said the office, under his leadership, will routinely participate in community events, civic association meetings and will do everything in its power to prevent young people from going down the wrong path.

“I am ready to work and I am ready to

lead,” Toulon said. “We have to ensure that we deliver as a society and assist those who need help and keep those who do harm off our streets. These gangs might think they’re tough, these gang members might think they have all the answers and can outsmart us, but they’re going to have a lot of time to think about their decisions when they’re sitting behind bars because they were no match for the men and women in the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office.”

One of the several popular styles of vapes, or electronic cigarettes commonly used.

Port Jefferson schools learn of vaping dangers

BY SABRINA PETROSKI The “vape life” has found its way into the Port Jefferson School District, making it one of many being forced to address the new trend.

On Jan. 10, Earl L. Vandermeulen High School hosted a community forum about the dangers associated with the use of electronic cigarettes and vaping among young people. The forum, led by the senior drug abuse educator with the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, Stephanie Sloan, gave parents and teachers a wealth of information on the issue.

The use of e-cigarettes rose exponentially between 2011 and 2015 across the United States within both middle and high schools, according to Sloan, who cited statistics from a 2016 report by the office of the U.S. Surgeon General. Sloan said e-cigarette use increased from less than 2 percent in high schools to 15 percent, and less than 1 percent in middle schools to 5 percent over that time period. According to Sloan, more young people are using the various devices because they are curious, there are fun flavors, and there is no perception of risk.

“They are not harmless and we have to work together to encourage healthier decisions among adults and youth,” Sloan said.

Though there isn’t a lot of conclusive research on e-cigarettes yet, what we do know is the liquid, known as e-juice, is made of a combination of nicotine and propylene glycol, with traces of diacetyl, acetoin, ultrafine particles of metal, and benzene. Sloan pointed out there is no water in the vapor being inhaled.

The devices come in different shapes and sizes; some as small as an actual cigarette, while others are the size of a cellphone. The smallest, and most popular among young adults is the size and shape of a USB drive, and it leaves no odor, making it easy to hide on school grounds.

“The problem is, it is very difficult to detect,” said Christine Austen, the high school principal. “Compared to cigarettes there’s no scent, there’s no smoke, and there’s no evidence unless other students report it.”

The trend started in Port Jeff last school year but has become much more frequent

since, according to leadership in the district. In an effort to stop students from picking up the habit, the school district has added a section about the dangers of e-cigarettes into the curriculum of every health class.

“We want the kids to know that there are varying amounts of nicotine and other synthetics in these vapes,” said Danielle Turner, the director of Health, Physical Education and Athletics. “Prevention is most important because of what we still don’t know.”

Though there are age restrictions on buying e-cigarettes and vapes, the underage students are still finding ways to obtain them. According to Robert Neidig, Port Jefferson Middle School principal, students say they can access them online with gift cards or through older siblings and friends.

E-cigarettes have recently been added to the New York State Clean Indoor Air Act, making it illegal for them to be used anywhere tobacco products are banned, including on school grounds. Sloan urged administrators to treat the devices the same as cigarettes when punishment is being decided.

According to Superintendent Paul Casciano, punishments for students caught with e-cigarettes on school property are handled on a case-by-case basis. A parent of both a middle school and a high school student said during the forum he believes there should be a blanket punishment.

“Just a phone call home isn’t enough,” he said. “All of the students should be treated the same in spite of other infractions. The first offense should be a warning, and the second should be a blanket punishment.”

The Port Jeff school district received a grant which will allow it to install vapor detectors in the bathrooms of the school, and going forward the district plan is for the faculty and staff to continue their efforts to keep the community aware and educated.

If you know of or suspect any stores that are selling e-cigarettes or accompanying items to people under the age of 21, you can contact the Department of Health Services Investigation Team by calling 631-853-3162.

For more information on the dangers associated with e-cigarettes contact Stephanie Sloan by calling 631-853-8554, or emailing stephanie.sloan@suffolkcountyny.gov.

According to the Congressional Budget Office, five-year reauthorization of CHIP would cost $800 million over a 10-year period.

According to the Greek Archdiocese of America, Epiphany, one of the oldest and most important feast days of the Orthodox Church, commemorates the manifestation of the Holy Trinity that took place at the baptism of Christ in the Jordan River.

The Great Blessing of Water is held on the eve of the feast of the Epiphany and on the day itself, following the Divine Liturgy.

The Greek Orthodox Church of the Assumption in Port Jefferson held its blessing of the waters and Epiphany celebration Jan. 14 on the shores of and within Mount Sinai Harbor. Demetrios Voulgarakis, pictured above, braved the freezing temperatures and dove in to retrieve the cross, as is customary.

First baby of 2018

St. Charles Hospital welcomed its first baby of the year at 1:03 a.m. Jan. 1, 2018.

Ryan Christopher Ciervo, son of Colleen and John Ciervo of Sound Beach, was delivered by Dr. John Petraco and weighed in at 7 pounds, 13 ounces. Little Ryan was the second baby born in Suffolk County in 2018.

The Ciervos did not expect to spend New Year’s Eve at St. Charles Hospital. With baby Ryan’s due date two weeks away, they anticipated a quiet start to 2018. However, on New Year’s Eve day, Mrs. Ciervo went into labor and they headed to St. Charles where Ryan became the first baby born at

Edna Louise Spear Elementary School

the hospital in the new year.

St. Charles is a familiar place for the Ciervo family. Colleen Ciervo and her two siblings were born at St. Charles, and Colleen’s mother was a nurse at the hospital for more than 30 years. John Ciervo was also born at St. Charles Hospital as was the Ciervos’ first child, big sister Jaelyn, who will turn 4 in February.

Nearly 1,500 babies are delivered at St. Charles each year. The maternity department includes six state-of-the-art birthing rooms and 22 maternity beds.

OBITUARY FROM PORT JEFFERSON SCHOOL DISTRICT

Star students

Five students from Port Jefferson School District’s Edna Louise Spear Elementary School were named “star students” by librarian Selinda Stout to promote the importance of literacy. The school’s version of the American Library Association Celebrity READ Campaign takes place several times per year.

The students were chosen for their excellent attitude, behavior and work ethic in the library. To recognize their achievement, their photos are displayed on the

bulletin board outside of the library along with a summary of their favorite book. A printed version of each child’s poster is also sent home for their families to enjoy.

“When students experience the pleasures of independent reading, it encourages them to become lifelong learners,” Stout said.

Star students, pictured clockwise from top left, are first-grader Dean Zaltsman, second-grader Nina Gnatenko, third-grader Jack Krause, fifth-grader Christopher Lotten and fourth-grader Lillianna Swift.

Rose M. (Pegge) Segergren Becker

Rose M. (Pegge) née Segergren Becker, 86, of Port Jefferson died Nov. 27, 2017.

She was the beloved mother of Joseph, Cheryl, Gary and Deborah Flinter; loving mother-in-law to Rebecca, Karen and Edward; proud grandmother to Chrystal, Michelle, Bridget, Cassandra, James, Lori, Garrett, Josh, Zeke, John, Aaron and the late Michael; and greatgrandmother to Justin, Britney and Ivan.

Rose was a lover of animals including her treasured cat, Pumpkin. She graduated from high school in Hastingson-Hudson, a village in Westchester County. In 1973, after the tragic passing of her husband, Rose was encouraged by her late “Cuz” June and

her family to buy a home in Stony Brook for herself and children. Rose worked at Southern Bell Telephone in Miami as an overseas operator, attended Suffolk County Community College and was employed at Stony Brook University as an administrative secretary, and at St. James Nursing Home as an administrative secretary to the director of nursing. Rose loved to travel, dance and gamble occasionally, but most of all, loved her life and family. Rose will be dearly missed and will be interred at Mount Hope Cemetery alongside her beloved husband Ralph.

Donations can be made to the ASPCA or an animal charity in her memory. Arrangements were entrusted to Bryant Funeral Home of East Setauket.

COUNTY

BELLONE’S OFFICE

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone, center, displays the new county law banning the updating or instillation of primitive cesspools and the technology associated with them, as he’s surrounded by local leaders and environmental group organizers during a press conference.

system replacement and pumping activities to the Department of Health Services beginning July 1, 2018. It also mandates permits for replacement of existing systems effective July 1, 2019, and requires business properties with grandfathered nonconforming wastewater flows to install nitrogen-reducing advanced systems if making significant changes to the use of the property.

Adrienne Esposito, executive director of Citizens Campaign for the Environment, joined forces with other environmental group leaders in thanking the county for what was a necessary step in eliminating nitrogen from groundwater.

“We can no longer allow inadequately treated sewage to mix with our sole source of drinking water,” she said. “Modernizing our health codes is a commonsense action that is critically needed for water protection.”

Richard Amper, executive director of the Long Island Pine Barrens Society, said he was overjoyed by the “huge step,” ending pollution by what he called Suffolk’s No. 1 threat to clean water.

“Now, we’re not just complaining,” he said. “We’re doing something about it.”

For the past three years, Suffolk’s Legislature has instituted a pilot program to test the new technologies, using a lottery system to select homeowners willing to have a donated system installed to demonstrate system performance. Under the pilot program, a total of 14 different technologies have been installed at 39 homes throughout the county. Four have been provisionally approved for use after demonstrating six months of acceptable operating data. As part of continued efforts, a voluntary Septic Improvement Program, the first of its kind in the state, was launched in July 2017 to provide grants and low-interest financing to make the replacement of cesspools and septic systems with new innovative/alternative technologies affordable for homeowners who choose to upgrade their systems.

Over the first five months, nearly 850 home-

owners have registered for the program, 228 have completed applications and 160 have been awarded grants and are moving toward installation of the new systems.

Suffolk County was the first in the state to apply for funding from New York State’s newly created $75 million Septic System Replacement Fund and will use the funding to expand its efforts to see the new technologies installed throughout the county.

The changes are the first in what is expected to be a series of updates to the county sanitary code over the next several years as county officials consider whether to put in place policies that require new nitrogenreducing systems in new construction projects, require installation of the new systems when a cesspool or septic system fails and needs to be replaced, or upon sale of a property. For now, all parties involved are on the same page moving forward, including both a working group comprised of county legislators, town planners and engineers with members of environmental organizations, as well as the Long Island Builders Institute.

“There is more work to do,” said Kevin McDonald, conservation finance and policy director for The Nature Conservancy on Long Island. “But passage of this bill means less nitrogen pollution in our water, and more resilient, healthy bays and people for generations to come.”

Warriors put up a fight in loss to East Islip

BY JIM FERCHLAND JIM FERCHLAND

The Warriors came up short against the cream of the crop for the second time this season, as the No. 2 Comsewogue girls bowling team fell to No.1 East Islip, 3-0.

The Redmen clinched the conference title and improve to 9-0 in League III. “They’re a great team,” Comsewogue 12year head coach Bo Frimmer said, noting East Islip’s 11 county titles.

“They’ve won states before. We are trying to get to that point. This is always who we try to beat every year. Coming into the match, we thought had a shot, and we did. We just didn’t close.”

The Redmen won each game by over 100 pins, with two bowlers exceeding 225 during the games. Junior Julianna Spina recorded a 256, and classmate Jenny Murphy scored 226 as East Islip took the games 1,043-935; 1,074-939; and 1,028-921.

“They work really, really hard,” East Islip head coach Harold Cooley said of his athletes. “They bowl all year round. They do what’s necessary to maintain where they are.”

Junior All-State bowler Hannah Manetta finished for the Warriors with 227 in Game 1, starting off the match with five strikes, a 234 in Game 2 and 246 in Game 3. Her consistent improvement led her to finish with the highest total score, a 707.

“Hannah bowled great,” Frimmer said.

“Her goal for the year is to make the state team, which she did last year. She’s right on the cusp right now, so a day like today really helped her. It was a very important day for her.”

East Islip 3 Comsewogue 0

Senior Alex Gallo scored 202 in Game 1, 195 in Game 2 and 175 in Game 3. Sophomore Colleen McInerney bowled a 163, 153 and 163. Before the match, her average was a 177.

“With East Islip, you’ve got to focus on making your spares,” McInerney said. “You have to put your head in the game more. Usually, when we bowl, we’re having more fun, but with East Islip, it becomes real serious.”

While the Comsewogue girls were struggling in the first two games, Frimmer spoke to his team about making the spare

“It’s the game of bowling,” Frimmer said. “You’re going to make your runs with your strikes, and if you don’t make your spares, it’s gonna kill your score.”

East Islip has been league champion since 2014. Two years ago, Comsewogue fell to East Islip by just three pins.

“We don’t usually beat them,” Manetta said. “We always come in second place in our league. I wasn’t expecting it to be easy.

I wanted to show them that we are second in the league and we weren’t going down without a fight.”

Coming off a loss, Comsewogue has one more match before counties, and Gallo isn’t worried one bit. The Warriors traveled to Islip Jan. 17, but results were not available by press time.

“I have full confidence,” Gallo said. “I have no doubt in my team. If you feel confident, that’s the only way you’re gonna win.”

Keeping score HHH West 75, Comsewogue 57

Nora Gabel finished with a team-high 19 points, and Lindsay Hanson and Julianna Watson added 10 points each in Comsewogue girls basketball ’s home loss to Half Hollow Hills West Jan. 16.

HHH West 87, Comsewogue 59

Rob Orzelowski, Charles Craig and Alan Smith Jr. scored 10 points apiece in Comsewogue boys basketball’s away loss to Half Hollow Hills West.

The Warriors drop to 3-3 in League V.

Comsewogue 43, East Islip 37

Comsewogue’s wrestling team invaded East Islip Jan. 12 and edged ahead of its opponent. With the win, the Warriors improve to 3-3 in League V while the Redmen fall to 2-4.

Port Jefferson 43, Shoreham-WR 30

Joey Collins earned his 100th win as Port Jefferson’s wrestling team outscored Shoreham-Wading River in the last matchup of the regular dual meet season Jan. 10. The Royals finish undefeated, 5-0 overall.

Scouting Neighborhoods A

s you search for your next home, scouting potential neighborhoods should be a crucial step in your house search.

It is important to get a sense of a new neighborhood to ensure it complements your preferred lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and your wallet. So youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve walked through a potential home and parked in its driveway; youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve only achieved a glimpse of the neighborhoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s characteristic and personality.

Really getting to know a neighborhood requires a little extra time and attention.

TEST DRIVE YOUR COMMUTE Before deciding on a new home, take a test

drive of your potential commute. How far are you willing to drive back and forth to work each day?

It can be easy to assume an answer to this question, but it is entirely different to actually live it. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;perfectâ&#x20AC;? place may not seem so perfect if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like you spend much time there.

TAKE A WALK AFTER SCHOOL Walking your new potential neighborhood is a great way to get a feel for it.

Take your stroll soon after schools get out and see how many children are walking around, how traffic picks up (or doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t), and just generally how active your neighbors are during the day.

Are there restaurants, cafes or shops near by? A lot of through traffic? All these things will help you gauge the atmosphere in the neighborhood.

COUNT â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;FOR SALEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; SIGNS Drive through the streets of a neighborhood and count the number of â&#x20AC;&#x153;for saleâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;foreclosureâ&#x20AC;? signs. Are there multiple signs down a single street?

While this could just be a coincidence in terms of changes of life circumstances for a group of neighbors, this also could be a sign of a potential issue.

You want to be sure you are investing in a stable neighborhood â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not one that is about to turn a corner. Š99098

Architecture Guide HOME FEATURES: arches, columns, dormers, roofs, windows, classic molding RESIDENTIAL STYLES: Art Deco – Homes built in this style feature geometric elements and a vertically oriented design.

California Bungalow – A forerunner of the Craftsman style, California Bungalows offer rustic exteriors, sheltered-feeling interiors, and spacious front porches.

Cape Cod – A true classic, Cape Cod homes – square or rectangular one-story structures with gabled roofs and unornamented fronts – were among America’s first houses.

Colonial – An offshoot of the Cape Cod style, Colonial homes feature a rectangular, symmetric design, second-floor bedrooms, clapboard siding, and gabled roofs.

Contemporary – Unmistakably modern in feel, Contemporary style homes are identifiable by their odd-sized windows, lack of ornamentation, and unusual mix of wall materials.

Craftsman – Full or partial-width porches framed by tapered columns, overhanging eaves, and exposed roof rafters differentiate a Craftsman home from the similar California Bungalow.

Creole – A front wall that recedes to form a first-story porch and a second-story balcony highlights the Creole Cottage design.

Dutch Colonial – German, or “Deutsch”, settlers in Pennsylvania originated the Dutch Colonial style, dominated by a barn-like broad gambrel roof with flaring eaves.

Federal – This style arose amid a renewed interest in Greek Roman culture, as its classical ornamentation around cornices, doors, and windows demonstrates.

French Provincial – Balance and symmetry define the French Provincial style, which includes a steep hip roof; balcony and porch balustrades; and rectangular doors set in arched openings.

Georgian – Refined and symmetrical with paired chimneys and a decorative crown, Georgian houses were named after English royalty.

Gothic Revival – English romanticism influenced this style marked by “Gothic” windows with pointed arches; exposed framing timbers; and steep, vaulted roofs.

Greek Revival – Large porches, entryway columns, and a front door surrounded by narrow rectangular windows characterize Greek Revival homes.

International – The International style exposes functional building elements, including elevator shafts, ground-to-ceiling plate glass windows, and smooth facades.

Italianate – Symmetrical bay windows in front; small chimneys set in irregular locations; tall, narrow, windows; and in some cases towers, typify Italianate houses.

Monterey – The Monterey style updates the New England Colonial style with an adobe brick exterior and a second floor with a balcony.

National – Rooted in Native American and pre-railroad dwellings, the National style consists of a rectangular shape with sidegabled roofs or square layouts with pyramidal roofs.

Neoclassical – Recognize Neoclassical homes, which exist in incarnations from one-story cottages to multilevel manses, by their Ionic or Corinthian-columned porches.

Prairie – Originated by Frank Lloyd Wright, the Prairie style house comes in two styles--boxy and symmetrical or low-slung and asymmetrical.

Pueblo – Flat roofs, parapet walls with round edges, straight-edge window frames, earth-colored stucco or adobe-brick walls, and projecting roof beams typify Pueblos.

Queen Anne – Emerging in the late Victorian era, the style employs inventive, multistory floor plans that often include projecting wings, several porches and balconies, and multiple chimneys with decorative chimney pots.

Ranch – Similar to the Spanish Colonial, Prairie, and Craftsman styles, Ranch homes are set apart by pitched-roof construction, built-in garages, wood or brick exterior walls, siding, and picture windows.

Regency – Although they borrow from the Georgian’s classic lines, Regency homes eschew ornamentation. They’re symmetrical, two or three stories, and usually built in brick. Typically, they feature an octagonal window over the front door, one chimney at the side of the house, double-hung windows, and a hip roof.

Saltbox – This New England Colonial style gained the Saltbox nickname because its sharply sloping gable roof resembled boxes used for storing salt.

Second Empire – A Victorian style, Second Empire homes feature mansard roofs with dormer windows, molded cornices, and dec-

orative brackets under the eaves.

Shed – A subset of the Modern style, Shed houses are asymmetric with multiple roofs sloping in different directions, which creates several geometric shapes.

Shingle – An American style that echoes the Queen Anne, Shingle style is distinguished by unadorned doors, windows, porches, and cornices; continuous wood shingles; a steeply pitched roof line; and large porches.

Shotgun – Tradition says that a shotgun blast can trace a straight path from the front to back door of this long, narrow home. The style is characterized by a single story with a gabled roof.

Spanish Eclectic – Taking its cues from early Spanish missions, Spanish Eclectic then adds a dash of details from Moorish, Byzantine, Gothic, and Renaissance architectural styles.

Split Level – A Modern style, Split Level design sequesters certain living activities, such as sleeping or socializing.

Stick – Decorative horizontal, vertical, or diagonal boards characterize Stick houses, which are members of the Victorian family.

Tudor – Half-timbering on bay windows and upper floors, and facades that are dominated by one or more steeply pitched cross gables typify Tudor homes.

Victorian – Built during the rise of the machine age, Victorian architecture often incorporated decorative details such as brackets, spindles and patterned shingles.

OPINION Editorial

On funding and freedom

ALEX PETROSKI

While Democrats and Republicans squabble over reaching an agreement to raise the debt ceiling in the hopes of funding the government beyond Jan. 19, peoples’ lives are hanging in the balance.

Debt ceiling battles that come down to the 11th hour are nothing new in Washington. As is wont to happen in our nation’s capital, a highstakes game of chicken is currently underway. Democrats are seeking a resolution to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals initiative while the Republicans want additional border security, which will also serve as much-needed political points for President Donald Trump (R), who promised his supporters a secure border during the 2016 campaign.

While political games often have real-life consequences, this time feels different. DACA was meant to be a temporary fix during the Obama administration to answer the complicated question regarding what to do about children brought to the United States by adults coming here illegally. It provided temporary status for approximately 800,000 people — commonly referred to as Dreamers — who fit this description, though a permanent answer to the question is still being sought. The Trump administration rescinded the action in September and, ever since, Dreamers have lived in fear of deportation from a country that has become home. Now, their status is a pawn in a political game of chess.

Similarly, reauthorization of CHIP — the Children’s Health Insurance Program — is awaiting a government funding agreement. The service provides lowcost health coverage to children in families that earn too much money to qualify for Medicaid.

In 2016, nearly 9 million children were enrolled in the program, according to www.medicaid. gov. The program covers routine checkups and immunizations, doctor visits, prescriptions, dental and vision care and emergency services for enrollees. In November 2017, the House passed a five-year reauthorization bill to keep the program running, but it never reached the Senate floor. The health of 9 million children hangs in limbo while politicians try to score points for their home team.

Obviously, for far more reasons than the fate of DACA or CHIP, a compromise needs to be reached in order to keep the government running.

Taking a funding battle to the wire is nothing new, but it is shameful that leadership from both parties are allowing these vulnerable members of our society to twist in the wind for months on end along the way.

For Democrats, erecting a border wall, or fence, to appease the president and score him a political win in exchange for a sensible resolution to DACA — and an end to the torturous waiting — would not be the end of the world. For Republicans, do 800,000 people who have contributed to our society need to be uprooted and sent home?

While we wait for both sides to grow up and compromise, families with sick kids and those looking to live the American Dream are likely going through incomprehensibly difficult times. A little compromise and compassion would go a long way.

Letters to the editor

Looking to 2018 in PJSD The Port Jefferson School District enjoyed numerous accomplishments in 2017 and we are looking forward to the exciting opportunities that lie ahead in 2018. There were many sources of Royal Pride as students continued to excel individually and collectively.

Great organizations do not rest on their laurels and our District is no exception.

Port Jefferson continued to receive prestigious recognition in 2017. Earl L. Vandermeulen High School was selected by the United States Department of Education as one of the best in our country. Niche.com also ranked our district and high school as among the finest in the nation.

In 2017, we saw increases in students’ Advanced Placement exam scores and in the percentage of students passing New York State Regents exams with honors. We increased the number of AP and Dual Enrollment courses. We partnered with Suffolk County Community

College to offer our students college experience through their Early College Program. Twenty five students were named as AP Scholars and two were National Merit Semi-finalists.

Our music and fine arts students continued to excel in 2017 and enjoyed county, state, and national recognition. Port Jefferson was selected by the NAMM Foundation as one of the “Best Communities for Music Education” and our elementary school was recognized as a SCMEA Elementary School of Musical Excellence. We also enjoyed outstanding performances by our student thespians.

Our student athletes enjoyed successes in 2017 as teams and as individuals. Seventy-three percent of our high school students participated on at least one athletic team. Championships were earned by: girls basketball (league, county, and state regional); boys cross country (county); girls tennis (league); boys individual golf (county)

and girls individual swimming (county in two events). Numerous teams earned Team Scholar Athlete recognition.

Our Investment Team placed fifth in the nation in the SIFMA Foundation Stock Market Game.

However, our defeated bond project in December ended 2017 on a less than positive note, but we are grateful that many residents took the time to vote.

Our board of education and administration have heard the school community and are ready to move forward, slowly and more inclusively to address our facilities’ growing needs.

Collectively, our district is excited and confident that 2018 will continue to bring success to our school community. Although there are challenges ahead, we view each as an opportunity to excel and believe we have every reason to be optimistic as we enter the new year.

Paul Casciano Port Jefferson School District Superintendent of Schools

Some Trump accomplishments It has recently been suggested that President Donald Trump has not been able to get much accomplished. Unless one has been keeping his or her eyes wide shut, a review of some of the actions taken by the president over this past year was far from underwhelming. My compilation might serve as a basis for concrete policy discussions.

In addition to meeting with most major world leaders and improving support and recognition for those who wear our military and law enforcement uniforms, the following is an abbreviated list of his accomplishments: judicial appointment to the Supreme Court (Neil Gorsuch), the appeals courts (12), the district courts (6), and Article III courts (47 pending); expanded North Korean sanctions with improved Chinese participation; increased United Nations and NATO nation debt payments; response to Bashar al-Assad’s use of chemical weapons; defeat of ISIS in Iran and Syria; reevaluation of our

role in the Middle East; Iranian uprising support; Keystone-XL and Dakota Access pipeline approvals; Jerusalem recognition; extreme immigrant vetting; MS-13 deportations; immigration law enforcement; markedly reduced illegal border crossings; border protection prototype evaluations; increased border agents; increased sanctuary city ICE agents; offshore drilling approvals; $1 billion Air Force One cost reduction; return of 3.35 million acres of monument lands to Utah to undo presidential abuse of the Antiquities Act; reduction of obtrusive business development regulations; reevaluations of NAFTA, TPP, the Iran treaty and Pakistan aid; investigations of the Russian dossier, misuse of classified information, uranium one deal, and Clinton Foundation pay-forplay; and $1.5 trillion tax system reforms including middle class reductions, increased standard deductions and child tax credits, and a competitive business tax.

In my opinion, one-year

economic highlights since Election Day 2016 include: Dow Jones up 29.83 percent; S&P up 21 percent; 401Ks are up; lowest job cuts since 1990; best manufacturing since 2004; lowest 17-year unemployment (4.1 percent); lowest 45-year African-American unemployment (6.8 percent); all-time lowest Hispanic unemployment; lowest seven-year food stamp use; home prices up 6 percent; GDP up more than 3 percent for two straight quarters; companies have given $600 million to employees in bonuses; utilities are already decreasing clients’ bills; one-year stock values up $5.2 trillion in the U.S. and $26 trillion worldwide.

While pundits might enjoy debating the value and attribution of these “accomplishments,” there can be little doubt that President Trump is fulfilling the promises he made to his supporters, and they should expect no less.

OPINION

On becoming older than my father

H

ow old were you when you kissed your first partner, had your first alcoholic drink, met the person of your dreams, had your first child, dealt with your first serious loss, got your first big job or made your first million?

We can use age to motivate us, give us a sense of time and place, and allow us to hear the alarm bells, or to hit the snooze button for the next phase of our lives.

We compare ourselves to those around us to see if we’re approaching the landmarks at the

By Daniel Dunaief right pace. We take pride in our accomplishments, or in the accomplishments of our children, as in, “My son started walking when he was 7 months old.”

D. None of the above

The comparisons often start with our parents, even though we come from a different generation. I wasn’t anywhere close to getting married at the same age as my parents were when they wed. I thought about that when I passed that landmark age.

Was I moving too slowly? Was I missing something or someone? Was I falling behind?

I took comfort in knowing that I lived at a different time. Then again, I also passed the age at which my brother got married. Did I need to do a hard target search of every outhouse, henhouse and farmhouse to find my fugitive wife?

Fortunately, the answer had nothing to do with age. I could have married other women, but I hadn’t met the right person.

Before my wife and I got married, we were in sync about when we wanted to try to make that wonderfully challenging transition toward parenthood.

Now, as the years have passed and our children have learned to drive

the car — and us crazy — we have reached other milestone ages.

They have celebrated academic landmarks, graduating from elementary and middle schools while working their way through high school.

Our milestone birthday numbers don’t come as frequently as 16, 18, 21, and 25 do for our kids.

But, every so often, we hit a number that has significance either on its own, ending in a zero or a five, or because of some family connection.

I am approaching just such a challenging milestone. My father was this old when he died. I know there are people like Mickey Mantle, who expected to live a relatively short life.

Mantle’s grandfather died at 60 and his father passed away at 40, both from Hodgkin disease. In the event, the baseball legend lived until he was nearly 64.

At every annual physical, my doctor and I review my family history.

We are aware of the diseases that may be lurking somewhere in my genes. It

makes sense to monitor my health and to catch anything early, particularly something that may run in the family.

Still, I don’t share Mantle’s sense of predestination, just as I didn’t feel an overwhelming urge to grab the nearest woman I found relatively unobjectionable because I had to get married at the same age as my parents or my brother.

My life doesn’t come with a playbook or a chapter outline. Maybe I would have made more money by now, reached more personal milestones, or run a few more marathons — OK, one — if I’d recognized all the age-related alarm bells.

Then again, if I had, I would have missed out on knowing my wife and our children, three people whose lives enrich and define my own.

So, yes, while I keep an eye on the genetic footprints in the sand ahead of me, I also hope to follow my own compass as I imagine the days ahead when I become older than my father.

More perilous than skiing was the fog

T

he recent frigid weather was good training to harden us for our trip north this past weekend. We went high up in the Green Mountains of Vermont to ski. Now before you wonder at my sanity, I hasten to repeat what my clever neighbor told me when he heard we were going.

“Skiing? Just hang out at the bar for a couple of days, then come back and tell us you went skiing. We’ll never know.”

So with proper full disclosure, I confess that I did not ski. I

that I felt like I had swooshed down from the summit but without the cold and the half-hour wait on the lift lines to get there. Now don’t get me wrong. I always loved to ski.

Why else would I have put up with the long drives, the absurd boots, the itchy hats and the running nose except for those few exhilarating moments when the view of the valley below from above the snow line is spectacular, the air is sharp and clear, the snow sparkles with sunlight in an unbroken trail before me and the deep silence assures me that the splendor is mine alone.

That said, age has its advantages, and I stayed warm and dry, letting subsequent generations enjoy the marvel of skiing.

We were there to celebrate my middle son’s 50th birthday. It became a tradition in our family, when my oldest son turned 50, that we would gather at the location of his choosing to properly mark the occasion together. This trip was not without its dangers but not from skiing. It was the drive up to the slopes on Friday that kept us on the edge of our seats in the car, peering into the

darkness. If you remember, the day began uncharacteristically warm, but as the hours went by, a deep freeze descended from the north and pushed into the warmer air, creating dense fog.

We crossed the Sound on the ferry, unable to see the shores, and actually missed the turnoff to the Merritt Parkway and thence Interstate 91 from Route 8 on the Connecticut side because the fog shrouded the signs above our heads on the roadway. That wasn’t of any great consequence as we continued on Route 8 to Interstate 84 East, a slightly longer stretch, but it did serve to warn us of what lay ahead.

We drove for the next couple of hours and the fog only seemed to intensify, but we were in good spirits anticipating the coming weekend’s festivities. We even stopped for a nice German dinner in Springfield, Massachusetts. What difference would a couple of extra hours make, we rationalized, since it was going to be dark anyway by the time we left the highway?

Initially driving wasn’t so difficult on Route 103, the first of the

back-country roads, because there were other cars snaking along, marking the contours of the road with the glow of red taillights. At one point a bus joined the parade in front of us, and that was dandy.

The real problems started when we turned onto Route 100 and left the bus behind. So dense was the fog that we missed the turn and had to circle back for a second try.

We were all alone from that point on, sometimes inching our way forward, straining to follow the yellow midline. Snowbanks lined the road, with only an occasional reflective marker to indicate a precipice off to the side. In that fashion, our hazard lights blinking noisily in the car to avoid anyone colliding with us, we traveled the next 24 miles. We knew we were climbing because our ears popped periodically, but we could see nothing of the mountains. We finally arrived at our lodging, a couple of hours later, in a glazed-eye stupor.

After that, simply skiing was a piece of cake. Birthday cake, that is.
