We look for certain “weak points” that can cause your diamond to pop out of your ring

The head of your ring is your diamond’s security system.

If it weakens, or wears away...if your prongs become brittle, or snap off...you can lose your diamond. And it happens in an instant. One moment, your diamond is in your ring. The next, it’s gone. So why not let us take a close look at your ring? It’s free. And it could very well save you the cost and heartbreak of having to replace a diamond that you cherish.

With more than 285,000 votes cast on Election Day, the winner of the race to become Suffolk County’s next sheriff will come down to absentee ballots.

Republican Larry Zacarese trails Democrat Errol Toulon Jr. by just 1,354 votes with the counting of absentee ballots expected to begin later this week, according to the Suffolk County Board of Elections. A representative from the department said there is no timetable yet for the completion of the process and announcement of a winner. The absentee ballots will be counted by a bipartisan team of department employees in addition to representatives from both campaigns at the Board of Elections office in Yaphank over several days. Nick LaLota, the department’s commissioner, said on election night at about 8:30 p.m. on Twitter they had received more than 13,500 absentee ballots to that point, though more were expected to come in.

Toulon’s campaign manager Keith Davies said in a phone interview they are confident

Toulon will be elected sheriff at the end of the process.

“I am hopeful we can quickly move to count every valid ballot and I am confident that once all the ballots are counted I’ll be officially elected sheriff,” Toulon said in a statement.

Despite trailing at the end of Election Day, Zacarese’s campaign also projected an air of confidence.

“We remain confident and energized, the campaign is fully operational,” campaign spokeswoman Vanessa Herman said in an email. “Morale, same as it was on election night, is high. Campaign staff and volunteers, who have been the core of our grassroots campaign from the beginning, are eager to get involved in the process and officially elect Larry as our next Suffolk County sheriff.”

Vincent DeMarco, the current sheriff who did not seek re-election in 2017, weighed in on the up-in-the air race.

“It’s close but I think Errol Toulon is going to win, I think the gap will narrow a little but I think he’s going to hold on and win,” he said during a gala Nov. 9.

Village

Community members formally propose village pool to board A group of nearly 250 Port Jefferson residents have a dream, but it is unlikely they will have any help from the village in trying to make it come to fruition.

Todd Pittinsky, a four-year village resident and Stony Brook University professor, has spearheaded and galvanized a movement that has nearly doubled in size since the beginning of 2017. The professor created a Facebook group more than a year ago to gauge community interest in constructing a pool for village residents.

In meetings that have taken place both online and in person, Pittinsky has organized a group that now has 243 supporters behind the idea of building a pool somewhere in the village and has even gotten one modest bite from a potential partner who might be able to supply a location: the Port Jefferson Yacht Club. Pittinsky formally presented some of the findings and brainstorming that have emerged from the meetings to the Port Jeff village board during a public meeting Nov. 6 in the hopes of gaining its support.

“We just realized we’ve been meeting and talking but at some point there’s only so far we can go as an outside group,” he said. “One of the issues that we talked about is this looming specter of the power plant closing and what that might mean for the tax base. One of the things that emerged from our group is we would just encourage the board and the mayor,

as you think about that prospect and you think about that scenario, we can be pretty much guaranteed that property values will go down if there’s nothing to replace it. So you could imagine a race to the bottom where the village stops investing in education, stops investing in recreation and then the question becomes ‘Why should I move to Port Jefferson?’ Unfortunately being on the water is just not enough.”

Pittinsky’s pitch concluded with a request to the village to commission a study to determine the feasibility of a village pool and to examine the landscape of state grants available to municipalities constructing new recreational facilities.

“The village has no plans to actively pursue a pool at this time,” Mayor Margot Garant said in a statement since the meeting.

“However, we are agreeable to working with the committee to assess the need and community support. We agree the country club would be the most suitable location, but under the current circumstances cannot foresee this as a village priority.”

Joe Yorizzo, commodore of the Port Jefferson Yacht Club, confirmed in a phone interview Pittinsky’s group has approached the club and although the conversations thus far have been preliminary, he said the club is interested in further discussing the possibility of building a pool. The group has also floated Danfords Hotel & Marina and the Port Jefferson Country Club as possible locations.

During the presentation, Pittinsky cited the health benefits of swimming, the safe and su-

Nearly 250 Port Jeff residents support a pool somewhere in the village. pervised environment for recreational activity that a public pool would create, revenue generated through memberships, a boost to property value and community cohesion across a wide array of age groups as some of the possible benefits. He said the cost of construction and finding a suitable location are the obvious hurdles that will need to be cleared in order for the proposal to truly get off the ground.

“At the end of the day, we ran a bunch of revenue models and the memberships do have to be expensive for at least the first 10 years to cover the construction, but we think that even if it is expensive we could balance it with access through something like once-aweek open community days where someone could buy one-day passes,” he said. “Then you’re kind of achieving the best of both worlds, where the people are particularly passionate about it and are willing and have the resources to contribute, but you also allow

others to have access.”

In February Pittinsky said a place for his 3-year-old son to learn to swim was one of the few elements the village is currently lacking, though creating a place where the community can gather and enjoy together has also long been one of his goals. Part of the group’s work has included an informal study to try to determine how many people in the village have their own private pools. Using Google Maps, they concluded only about one in 17 homes currently have pools in Port Jeff. Pittinsky also stressed during the presentation that a wide range of demographics are represented in the group, and even those with their own pools see the value in a public pool.

He concluded his pitch with what he called the group’s tagline: “Let’s make a splash together.”

Mount Sinai’s Warrior Ranch helps veterans heal

When asked his most memorable veteran-horse interaction within the organization, he talked about Army Staff Sergeant Allen Pennington, Warrior Ranch’s first soldier to go through the program, and Red, a 4-year-old, retired race thoroughbred. “[Allen’s] this big, rough and tough guy, and when the horse connected with him, I just saw all the stress he was holding inside bubble right up through his chest and then he just couldn’t keep himself composed,” Simonetti said. “He broke down and turned around and hugged that horse like it was his battle buddy. And I told him, ‘don’t feel bad about that. That’s what you’re here for.’”

During a testimonial on the Warrior Ranch website, Navy veteran Cathie Doherty, who was diagnosed with PTSD and put on medication for a number of years, said she was grateful to have attended a women veteran’s retreat at the nonprofit.

“It was really an amazing experience,” Doherty said. “I think it touched me much deeper than I imagined it would. I appreciated working with the horses and that I had to make a connection with them.

I feel I was present in the moment. I didn’t care about my phone, I didn’t care what was going on around me. It was a beautiful experience for me.”

Castro said companionship with a horse might be more beneficial than a human’s.

“When you’re a veteran and you’re having a bad day, you don’t want to tell anybody, you don’t want to talk about it — you want to forget about it,” she said. “But I also don’t want to be alone and, so, when you’re there with the horse, and that horse knows what you’re going through and feeling, he feels it too. And because you love the horse and you don’t want the horse to feel that way, you’re going to try and make yourself feel better. It’s awe-inspiring.”

U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley), who served four years in the Army, visited the ranch in Mount Sinai with his family Oct. 7

and saw firsthand the value of the nonprofit.

“It doesn’t take more than a few minutes to see the positive effects that you’re having on these horses, and from these horses the veterans are getting love that they possibly have never experienced

before,” Zeldin said. “In a way, you’re directly coping with the symptoms of PTSD while also productively escaping the worst of it. It’s a great concept and I’d love to see Warrior Ranch grow into something a whole lot bigger than it already is.”

Delivery man robbed at knifepoint in PJS

By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewspapers.com A Selden man ordered a pizza delivery from a restaurant in Coram Nov. 11 at about 9:30 p.m. and, instead of paying the driver, the man allegedly robbed the employee at knifepoint, according to police.

Local veterans visit Rocky Point for Veterans Day

By Rich AcRitelli This week marks the 63rd anniversary of the first Veterans Day, Nov. 11, 1954, as declared by President Eisenhower, an annual remembrance of national service.

“On that day let us solemnly remember the sacrifices of all those who fought so valiantly, on the seas, in the air, and on foreign shores, to preserve our heritage of freedom,” Eisenhower said.

Many North Shore residents have served at home and abroad to protect the freedom of the United States. Just recently, proud veterans from VFW Post 6249 in Rocky Point were interviewed by members of the Rocky Point High School History Honor Society about their years in uniform.

The first veteran to be interviewed was Gary Suzik, who is a resident of Rocky Point.

The native of Michigan’s upper peninsula grew up playing football, hockey and downhill skiing and still has a touch of his Midwestern accent. He served in the U.S. Navy for four years and was stationed on the USS LaSalle, where he helped guide the landing craft. As it turned out, this was one of the last ships to be built locally at the historic Brooklyn Navy Yard. Suzik said he is immensely proud of his duty on a vessel that saw naval missions for more than 40 years in every corner of the world. The ship and crew even helped retrieve the Gemini capsule, a spacecraft carrying two astronauts, after it landed from an early space mission.

Suzik participated in operations in the Mediterranean Sea, where he visited ports in Italy and France. He was also deployed to Cuba and the Caribbean during the Dominican Civil War in 1965. It was common for this ship to carry about 400 sailors and 500 to 600 Marines who utilized landing crafts to assault enemy forces in hot spots around the globe.

Suzik mentioned how the ship had the honor of carrying Admiral John McCain Jr., who is the father of senator, noted Vietnam veteran and prisoner of war John McCain (R-Arizona). Veterans Day is a special moment for Su-

zik as he recalls not only his memories, but that of his father who fought during the Battle of the Bulge in World War II and other family members who were also in the military.

Dan Guida grew up in Nassau County and currently lives in Wading River. His mother had nine brothers, of which seven served in the military during World War II. Since his youth, Guida said he learned the importance of national service from stories that were presented to him by his uncle. After high school, Guida was granted a temporary military deferment in order to attend St. John’s University in Jamaica, Queens, but a short time later, he decided to leave school and was drafted into the Army. With some college behind him, Guida was accepted into the Army Officer Candidate School and became a second lieutenant. Today around the post, many of the VFW members cheerfully refer to him as “Lieutenant Dan,” a reference to the film “Forrest Gump.”

From 1967 to 1968, Guida served in Vietnam with the I Corps. As an officer, he was responsible to direct tanks, armored personnel carriers and the trucks that operated within the northern areas of South Vietnam, not too far from Da Nang and the demilitarized zone.

Guida recalled the tanks didn’t function well within the terrain of Vietnam through the heavy rains that saturated the grounds and made it difficult for American armor to gain enough traction in the mud. He shared interesting insights into the buildup to the war with the students.

Later, Guida utilized the GI Bill to attend Nassau Community College and Hofstra University, where he majored in accounting. He held a job as an accountant for a good part of his life and he still happily holds financial responsibilities today for Post 6249. The Wading River resident said Veterans Day is a moment that our citizens should be thankful for the sacrifices that past, present and future veterans have made toward the security of this nation. Guida said he saw that gratitude as he entered the high school before the interview.

Rocky Point resident and local commander of VFW Post 6249, Joseph Cognitore was also asked about his time in the service by the students. While Guida saw the earlier part of the war, Cognitore, who was drafted into the Army, endured the latter phase of fighting in Vietnam. From 1969 to 1970, he was a platoon sergeant that served in the air cavalry that transported soldiers by helicopters into various areas of the country.

Cognitore was tasked to conduct “search and destroy” missions against the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese Army who were situated in caves, tunnels, jungles and mountains. He also fought in Cambodia against an enemy that utilized the strength of the Ho Chi Minh trail to move troops and materials through the country to attack American and South Vietnamese forces.

Cognitore said it took a long time to put the war behind him. During the Gulf War in the early ’90s, he joined the VFW and rose

to be its commander and to hold prominent leadership positions within the local, state and national levels of the organization. He said he is constantly reminded of his combat tours through injuries to his legs that have left him hobbling for years.

Cognitore views every day as Veterans Day. Each day he answers countless emails and telephone calls to help men and women that have served at home and abroad. Recently, Cognitore helped spearhead a golf outing that has raised over $200,000 to help the Wounded Warriors. One of the most important qualities the students were treated to during the interview was the camaraderie the veterans have toward each other, a dynamic likely strengthened by Post 6249’s daily mission of helping every veteran.

Events were held across the North Shore last weekend in honor of Veterans Day. State and local officials gathered to remember all those who served and celebrate those still serving at local parks and memorials. A Veterans Day service was held Nov. 11 at Sound Beach Veterans Memorial Park. Heritage Park in Mount Sinai displayed its annual Parade of American Flags, assembled with help from members of Mount Sinai Boy Scout Troop 390.

Royals race to second straight county title Several compete at state meet

By Jim Ferchland Coach Rod Cawley called runner Sam Walker a “take-charge kind of guy,” and at the Suffolk County Class C championship Nov. 3, the senior raced his team to its second straight title.

The Port Jefferson cross-country competitor finished first at the 5,000-meter Sunken Meadow State Park course, crossing the finish line in 17 minutes, 48 seconds.

Walker has claimed gold his junior and senior season and said placing first two years in a row to cap off his final county cross-country meet was icing on the cake. He also was quick to point toward it being more about the team than himself this time around.

“I’m not going to lie, it felt pretty good,” “It’s amazing to see,” Walker said of the Walker said. “This year didn’t entirely go talented underclassmen. “I know when I go as I wanted it to, but I was proud of myself off to college, I’m going to be coming back to because my main concern was if the team was watch these guys.

With this, the weather once again became The Port Jefferson team ran an average of a colossal obstacle for Port Jefferson in the 18:48.21, and had three runners place in the state meet at Wayne Central School District in Top 5, with freshman Grant Samara placing Ontario Center just east of Rochester.

Walker hit a major setback in the state meet as he suffered an injury in the tough conditions, costing him a Top 20 finish.

“I was feeling good,” Walker said of his confidence before his injury. “I tried catching up with the lead pack, but it was so muddy and there were foot tracks from the previous day that had frozen over. There were a bunch of holes and I rolled my ankle, fell, and it took a while to get back up. I knew that race was over. I couldn’t run as well as I wanted to, but it’s something to learn from.”

Despite the rough upstate experience, Cawley continues to remain optimistic about the future with his young, talented team.

“I’m very excited,” Cawley said. “I have very high expectations for the next few years.”

Kyra sommerstad represents Port Jefferson at the suffolk County championships. she qualified to compete in a handful of races at the state meet, but having to choose only two, decided to race in the 100-yard backstroke and 200 individual medley.

Swimming success: Sommerstad repeats at Suffolk meet Port Jefferson sophomore grabs gold in 100-yard backstroke, 200 individual medley for second season

By Desirée Keegan Desiree@tbrnewspapers.com Coach Mark Anderson asked Port Jefferson swimmer Kyra Sommerstad what her goal was heading into the 200 individual medley race at the Suffolk County championships Nov. 4.

“I want to go 2:04,” she answered, which would be a career best for the sophomore.

By the time she touched the wall, Kyra had completed the 200 yards in 2 minutes, 4 seconds, which also earned her a firstplace finish.

“Watching her swim, she looked great,” said Anderson, her Three Village Swim Club coach for the last two years. “She had gone a 2:04, and I thought that spoke to

“She is incredibly positive, incredibly hard-working, dedicated, she’s a great student in the classroom and just getting to know her and getting to see her grow up and mature has been a real enjoyment for me,” he said. “She is a coaches dream.”

Kyra validated Anderson’s comments, saying she’s ready for what lies ahead.

Architecture Guide HOME FEATURES: arches, columns, dormers, roofs, windows, classic molding RESIDENTIAL STYLES: Art Deco â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Homes built in this style feature geometric elements and a vertically oriented design.

California Bungalow â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A forerunner of the Craftsman style, California Bungalows offer rustic exteriors, sheltered-feeling interiors, and spacious front porches.

Cape Cod â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A true classic, Cape Cod homes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; square or rectangular one-story structures with gabled roofs and unornamented fronts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; were among Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first houses.

Colonial â&#x20AC;&#x201C; An offshoot of the Cape Cod style, Colonial homes feature a rectangular, symmetric design, second-floor bedrooms, clapboard siding, and gabled roofs.

Contemporary â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Unmistakably modern in feel, Contemporary style homes are identifiable by their odd-sized windows, lack of ornamentation, and unusual mix of wall materials.

Craftsman â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A front wall that recedes to form a first-story porch and a second-story balcony highlights the Creole Cottage design.

Dutch Colonial â&#x20AC;&#x201C; German, or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Deutschâ&#x20AC;?, settlers in Pennsylvania originated the Dutch Colonial style, dominated by a barn-like broad gambrel roof with flaring eaves.

Federal â&#x20AC;&#x201C; This style arose amid a renewed interest in Greek Roman culture, as its classical ornamentation around cornices, doors, and windows demonstrates.

French Provincial â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Refined and symmetrical with paired chimneys and a decorative crown, Georgian houses were named after English royalty.

Gothic Revival â&#x20AC;&#x201C; English romanticism influenced this style marked by â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gothicâ&#x20AC;? windows with pointed arches; exposed framing timbers; and steep, vaulted roofs.

Greek Revival â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Large porches, entryway columns, and a front door surrounded by narrow rectangular windows characterize Greek Revival homes.

International â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The International style exposes functional building elements, including elevator shafts, ground-to-ceiling plate glass windows, and smooth facades.

Italianate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Symmetrical bay windows in front; small chimneys set in irregular locations; tall, narrow, windows; and in some cases towers, typify Italianate houses.

Monterey â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Monterey style updates the New England Colonial style with an adobe brick exterior and a second floor with a balcony.

National â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Recognize Neoclassical homes, which exist in incarnations from one-story cottages to multilevel manses, by their Ionic or Corinthian-columned porches.

Prairie â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Originated by Frank Lloyd Wright, the Prairie style house comes in two styles--boxy and symmetrical or low-slung and asymmetrical.

Pueblo â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Although they borrow from the Georgianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classic lines, Regency homes eschew ornamentation. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; This New England Colonial style gained the Saltbox nickname because its sharply sloping gable roof resembled boxes used for storing salt.

Second Empire â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A Victorian style, Second Empire homes feature mansard roofs with dormer windows, molded cornices, and dec-

Š97347

orative brackets under the eaves.

Shed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A subset of the Modern style, Shed houses are asymmetric with multiple roofs sloping in different directions, which creates several geometric shapes.

Shingle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A Modern style, Split Level design sequesters certain living activities, such as sleeping or socializing.

Stick â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Decorative horizontal, vertical, or diagonal boards characterize Stick houses, which are members of the Victorian family.

Tudor â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 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 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Built during the rise of the machine age, Victorian architecture often incorporated decorative details such as brackets, spindles and patterned shingles.

OpiniOn Letters to the editor

Editorial

A case for voting ‘No’ on the PJSD bond

Screenshot from Twitter

Men and women take part in sharing abuse stories on Twitter using the hashtag #MeToo.

The power to curb abuse The sexual harassment dam broke when the allegations surged against producer Harvey Weinstein.

A tsunami of newly empowered victims have spoken out about sexual harassment in the workplace after the fall of entertainment heavyweights like Weinstein and Bill O’Reilly, and it has led to others coming out against actor Kevin Spacey, comedian Louis C.K. and many others.

Most employers take allegations of sexual and ethnic harassment seriously and show little tolerance when presented with credible cases of abuse. However, in situations where the accused are “rainmakers” — individuals on whom the success of the business depends — too many companies sweep allegations of predatory behavior under the rug.

With a wave of accusations of sexual harassment and assault, often dating back years, the industry frontrunners have been forced to step down from their roles, but there needs to be consistency, and more needs to be done to restrict the persistent flow of these cases.

We can only hope that the last month will serve to further empower victims harboring years-old stories. It is important that anyone with a story to tell knows that if credible, their story will be believed and repercussions will follow. We hope more men, women and children step up and speak out, regardless of whether or not the abuser is in a position of power, though we understand how difficult that is. Don’t be fearful of public embarrassment, don’t worry about your reputation and never feel like lesser goods. Instead, think about the wrongs you’d be righting. Think of the people you could prevent from coming in harm’s way, and think of the justice that will be served.

There are two types of repercussions for situations like these: legal ones and societal ones. In the situations where statutes of limitation have expired or physical evidence is limited, legal consequences are not always possible. When those cases arise, it is incumbent on society to make the pain felt elsewhere.

Following the Bill Cosby allegations, all of his “The Cosby Show” videos were removed from television, Netflix, YouTube, etc. While Netflix has parted ways with Spacey on “House of Cards,” all of the seasons from pilot to finale are still intact, as well as C.K.’s show “Louie,” although Netflix has canceled his planned stand-up special, and his new feature film has been put on hold.

How Cosby’s work has been treated in the aftermath of his date rape revelations provides a sharp contrast to the conversation around C.K.’s.

The latter is currently receiving thought pieces on separating the flawed man from his brilliant work. Even if the accusations are not as harsh as those brought upon Cosby, the allegations are disgusting and should be treated as such.

In the last year, Cosby said he’s completely blind. Let’s see if the cases against Weinstein, Spacey and C.K are enough to open the eyes of society to the inappropriate conduct and crimes of people in power. We hope that the country and workplace don’t turn blind eyes to these behaviors the way some people did for now-President Donald Trump (R) when he said in his leaked tape of “locker room” talk,, “When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ‘em by the pussy,” To the Cosbys, Weinsteins, Spaceys and C.K.’s of the world, locker room talk and actions are not acceptable and will not be tolerated.

On Tuesday, Dec. 5, Port Jefferson residents will vote on the school district’s $30 million bond proposal. With an additional $10 million in interest costs, a $40 million expenditure is excessive and inflated especially at a time when the Village faces the potentially devastating impact of losing LIPA tax revenue. Even after factoring in the potential state aid that could be received, the taxpayers will still be on the hook for over $27 million.

Additionally, a conclusion in the executive summary from the district’s 2016/17 Comprehensive Long Range Planning study states: “Historically, district enrollment in 2016 reflects a decrease of 14.2 percent (181 students) since 2006. This downward trend will continue

as all three schools are projected to have decreases (estimated to be 42 students) in enrollment through 2026.”

How is it fiscally responsible to spend $40 million when overall school enrollment is decreasing?

Furthermore, the proposed bond has 23 different projects spread across each of the schools and the administrative offices.

Some of the projects which address Americans with Disabilities Act and Title IX compliance, improved security and safety of buildings to optimize students’ classroom environment could be supported. However, there are other proposed projects that are less critical and which many consider to be “nice to haves” (e.g., stadium lighting, $1.6 million; synthetic turf field, $1.4 million; and new administrative

offices, $4 million). Less expensive options must be available to accommodate these “nice to haves” but do not appear to have been considered by the board of education.

Considering these facts: overall enrollment in schools is trending down; nearly half of the school’s annual budget is at risk if LIPA leaves, which means drastic increases to property taxes to cover the deficit; and the refusal to split the bond, forcing residents to vote on an “all or nothing” bond jeopardizing the timely completion of most critical initiatives, this bond must be reworked, reduced and re-presented to the public.

I’m voting “No” Dec. 5.

Turf playing fields present several dangers I am very concerned about the proposed replacement of the natural grass with artificial turf in the current $30 million bond issue. My daughter attends Port Jefferson Middle School and I strongly believe that this presents a risk to our childrens’ health. After investigating this issue I have identified several important health risks which such a field would pose: • Increased exposure to known carcinogenic compounds and toxins. In recent years there has been concern about the apparently high incidences of cancer among soccer goalies. These concerns have prompted the use of infill made up of athletic shoes instead of tires. However, if one considers that typical

athletic shoes are comprised of a host of known carcinogens, I don’t think this really addresses the issue.

• Increased incidence of injury on these fields from head trauma to joint injury. Studies show increased incidences of head trauma. A study from the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons also shows higher incidence of orthopedic injuries playing on these surfaces.

• Increased risk of serious bacteriological infections. There are many organisms that do not die on the surface of Astroturf as quickly as on real grass or sod. The inevitable presence of animal feces and human sweat can generate virulent bacteriological pathogens. These types

of infections have already affected members of our community whose children have played on these types of fields in the past. Prevention against this requires regularly washing these surfaces with disinfectant. This of course raises the problem of contamination of the disinfectant chemicals.

While I support the many important and necessary upgrades for the school infrastructure, I oppose spending several million dollars to replace our beautiful natural grass for a plastic and rubber field which is a proven health hazard for our children.

Thanks for your support on Election Day With Election Day behind us, I would like to thank the voters of Brookhaven who elected me for the fourth time as their town supervisor by 62 percent to 38 percent. I am deeply appreciative for their faith and support in my administration, and intend to use this overwhelming mandate to continue my work with the town board to keep Brookhaven moving forward.

Among my top priorities will be to continue to strengthen our

town’s finances, maintaining our AAA bond rating and holding the line on taxes by complying with our tax cap, spending cap and debt cap.

Over the past five years, our town board has preserved hundreds of acres of land and preserved the character of our neighborhoods for generations to come. My administration will continue to clean up our underground and surface waters and prevent overdevelopment.

Through strategic planning, we can work smarter to develop thriving downtown main street centers, attract new tech industries and strengthen our economy by creating long term, high-paying jobs.

Thank you again for your support. I will work every day on behalf of all the residents of the Town of Brookhaven.

Ed Romaine Supervisor Town of Brookhaven

opinion The benefit of second thoughts in an instantaneous world

W

e rarely get anything completely right the first time.

I’m not just saying that because I’m a second child. I idolize my older brother. In fact, I’m fond of my younger brother, too.

We need practice. When we’re young, we take a few steps and we fall hard.

Fortunately, at that age, we’re practically made of plastic, bouncing off the nearby floor as if it were a downy soft trampoline.

As we age, the

By Daniel Dunaief floor gets harder.

With each figurative step through life, we make adjustments, learn on the fly and revise our approach.

We recently visited a few colleges

D. None of the above

with our daughter. The cheerful school representatives were selling us on the idea that their classes were great, the students they admitted were incredible and the opportunities were extraordinary.

One theme that stuck out, especially after several schools presented it as if unique, was that they made students uncomfortable. They wanted to challenge their undergraduates to reach outside their comfort zone. They wanted eager students to fall down and, in so doing, learn to get back up.

This idea of falling is part of the charm of enjoying the ride. We listen to elementary school music concerts in which someone plays a few notes after the conductors arms have stopped moving, we nod encouragement when the young person on stage says a few of the wrong words in a speech, and we suggest to our kids that they’ll spell “because” correctly the next time.

The country may have forgotten that our strutting president, who has been

in the public eye for so long, has never been a politician. He’s definitely outside his comfort zone, acting like a president when he hasn’t even been, to borrow a phrase from him, “elected dog catcher.”

People pounce on every mistake, every breach of protocol and every misstatement, ready to tar and feather him for saying or writing something that probably would play better on a fictionalized reality TV show than it does for him as president of the United States.

He’s so eager to be a part of every story and to expand his brand — something he’s been doing reflexively for years — that he doesn’t appear to take the time to recognize or acknowledge mistakes.

I know how it is to say, “my bad.”

Many people consider admitting a mistake some sign of weakness, instead of a reflection of strength and self awareness. Erring, as the saying goes, is human.

You don’t get many free passes when you’re president. You either learn or you

don’t, you either unify or you don’t, and you either say or do the right thing, or you don’t.

Still, it seems to me that he might endear himself to more people, and win higher ratings, if he took a few extra seconds to think about whether he might write or respond to something in a different way. He doesn’t seem burdened by the kind of reflection that allows for his own second thoughts to enter the discussion.

People are eager to rip him apart each day, but let’s remember something his handlers and cohorts seem to embrace regularly: He gets angry when people point out that he’s fallen down.

Maybe he can meet us halfway, by learning to take an extra second to edit his thoughts or speech. When he takes a few steps without falling, we can breathe a sigh of relief, the way parents do when they’re no longer bending over to protect their children from bumping their heads on nearby coffee tables.

Overcoming grief and hardship with a purpose

J

oe Biden has written a book called, “Promise Me, Dad: A Year of Hope, Hardship, and Purpose,” about one year in his life. A memoir, it deals in part with the illness and death of his elder son, Beau, from brain cancer at the age of 46. I have not read the book. It just came out this past Tuesday, Nov. 14. But the coincidence of the book’s release on the day my husband died at a similarly young age exactly 30 years ago from cancer has connected me to Biden. I know what he went through — the

By Leah S. Dunaief shock, the pain, the hope, the heartbreak, the grief and the end that ultimately comes crashing down into silence. Then he faced the absolute necessity of having to pick up and function because life moves on with every passing day. And we must move on with it because there is no respite for the living.

Between you and me

Biden also writes about his difficult decision not to run for president in the 2016 election and about the foreign crises in Iraq, the Ukraine and Central America as part of his workload during that one year.

“I wanted to write precisely about the crises and dilemmas I faced as they intersected in the moment,” Biden told Philip Galanes in an interview with The New York Times. “I wanted to show that in the ebb and flow of life, nothing is totally separable.”

I know that Biden was lucky to have those other facets to deal with, just as I was lucky to have a huge challenge almost immediately after my husband’s death.

Two of my sons were away in college, the third was a high school senior and the newspaper was being challenged by the Communications Workers of America to unionize. A reporter on my staff, who had already made his mark by unionizing the teaching assistants at Stony Brook University, brought the union to my door. He turned his attention to our hometown newspaper, despite the fact that there wasn’t a community newspaper in all of New York state that had a union.

Shoestring budgets and multitask jobs preclude coordinated decision making with a union. The CWA was attracted, I guess, because it represented new territory to conquer. The only problem was that community newspapers are not flush with profits and do not have large staffs to join a union. Nonetheless, we had to fight them off for six months, as they handed out pamphlets with all sorts of painful charges to get our staff worked up against the company. The climax came with an appearance before the National Labor Relations Board in a room without air conditioning in Brooklyn on a hot June day. The pickings were turning out to be pretty lean for the CWA, and they backed off.

Throughout the ordeal, I was wildly angry. I wasn’t getting a chance to grieve. Each day I had to rush to the parapets to defend the honor and integrity of the newspaper against what was to me a ridiculously unequal battle. I barely gave any attention to my grieving son who was still at home, nor did I have a chance to pour out my own grief somewhere in a quiet corner. But I did realize how fortunate I was in those who came to my defense. We had absolutely no money to hire a labor lawyer,

and we had no idea how to respond.

But the newly retired union leader of the Long Island Rail Road came into my office and offered his help.

Harold Pryor was the man who had terrified Gov. Nelson Rockefeller (R) during contract talks by calling wildcat strikes from his totally loyal followers, directing them to abandon the trains at the nearest station during rush hour.

Pryor was living in the area and teaching at Stony Brook University. When he found out what was happening to our newspaper, he thought it was not only unfair but also idiotic. He came to advise me through the thicket of union maneuverings, and he brought with him an experienced lawyer to defend us during the hearing.

It was a script worthy of a movie.

Here was this feared union leader facing off against one of the largest unions for the sake of a peanut of a newspaper.

Jimmy Stewart would have played his part in the spirit of “It’s a Wonderful Life.” And thanks to his aid, we emerged unscathed.

Only after it was all over did I realize that life had thrown me a life preserver, much as it had for Biden, and therefore we hadn’t drowned in our grief.
