Northport residents capture stunning eclipse Two Northport residents passionate about astronomy and photography chased after the total solar eclipse Aug. 21 in Greenville, South Carolina.

Martin Stone and his friend, Bruce Baron, traveled over 700 miles to witness firsthand the total solar eclipse, hauling camera gear in hopes of capturing a once-in-a-lifetime image. Stone said he and his wife booked their motel more than two months in advance. As the weather threatened to obscure their view,

they kept their fingers crossed andw did a “go away cloud dance.”

“It was almost eerie,” Stone said.

“It got darker. It got cooler. The two minutes of totality felt more like four seconds. When the darkness happens the birds stop singing and the crickets start chirping, but as soon as it got dark people started screaming. “ Above left, shows a compilation of the various phases of the solar eclipse laid out in a timeline. Above right, shows the sun

and moon forming what is called a “diamond ring” due to the sun flares out from one side, creating the illusion of a ring.

Stone and Baron are members of the Astronomy Society of Long Island which meets every Wednesday, 8 p.m. at the Vanderbilt Planetarium in Centerport. In the summer months, the organization hosts observations of the night sky with a telescope that is open to the public twice a month.

Hundreds give East Northport vet one final salute

By Sara-Megan WalSh sara@tbrnewspapers.com A Facebook post had the power to unite a community to make sure a former East Northport resident didn’t make his final journey alone.

More than 400 veterans, servicemen and women, and Northport-East Northport community members attended the funeral Mass of Saverio DeLaurentis at St. Anthony of Padua Roman Catholic Church to honor his life and military service Sept.1.

“It’s very sad. We heard this poor guy didn’t have any family, so we came out so we could be here for him,” said Fred Amore, commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars Elwood-Commack Post 9263. “It’s very supportive and this is the way it should be — not because you knew him or didn’t know him, but honoring him because he served.”

DeLaurentis, 85, died Aug. 21 in Florida but was an East Northport native, born on Larkfield Road, and a Northport High School graduate. He was a U.S. Navy veteran who served in the Korean War aboard the aircraft carrier the USS Oriskany, according to old newspaper clippings.

DeLaurentis’ final wishes were to have his funeral at St. Anthony of Padua followed by a burial at Calverton National cemetery, according to Jean Chiovarelli and Loretta Hamann, co-chairs of the ministry of consolation at the church. The arrangements had

“We found out he had no immediate family or friends,” Chiovarelli said. “We thought no one would come out to the church.”

Chiovarelli started a chain of phone calls and emails to spread word of DeLaurentis’ funeral among the area’s American

Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars posts.

A Facebook post made Aug. 30 by Hamann caught the attention of local residents.

TOWN New Elwood principal greets middle schoolers

By Sara-Megan WalSh sara@tbrnewspapers.com Elwood Middle School students are kicking off the new 2017-18 school year with a new principal at the helm.

Christina Sapienza, the newest middle school principal met sixth- to eighth-graders for their first day Sept. 5. She was appointed to the position by Elwood’s board of education over the summer.

“We knew we needed to find a real all-star for the students of Elwood Middle School,” said Superintendent Kenneth Bossert in a statement. “Dr. Sapienza was a candidate who didn’t just want a job, she wanted a position in a district where she felt she could really be successful and make a difference. I am confident that she is the right person to do that here.”

Sapienza said she grew up in Huntington and went to St. Joseph’s College in North Patchogue. She received her doctorate degree in educational leadership from Concordia University in Chicago.

“I’ve always been very passionate about working with middle school-aged students,” she said. “It’s a unique time in their development where they need strong, trusting, loving adults in their lives that can help support them as they develop their sense of self.”

Sapienza has extensive experience as an educator and nearly a decade of administrative experience. In her career, she previously

Photos from elwood school district

elwood Middle School’s new principal Christina Sapienza meets and greets students aug. 24. worked as a special education teacher in the Plainview-Old Bethpage Central School District and was an assistant principal for Oceanside schools in Nassau for six years.

Sapienza is coming to Elwood from her most recent role as assistant principal at Commack Middle School for three years.

“What I recognized very quickly about the Elwood school district is it has a strong sense of community, which I am really excited to be

a part of,” she said.

Over the course of the summer, Sapienza said she’s had the opportunity to meet Elwood’s teachers and staff in preparation for her new role. Middle school students and their families were invited to a special meet and greet with the new principal Aug. 24.

“The first thing I hear from everyone I meet is, ‘You are going to love it here,’” Sapienza said. “People could not be kinder or

more supportive.”

As the new principal, Sapienza said one of her main goals is to get Elwood’s parents, teachers and staff immersed in learning more about the adolescent development of middle school-aged students and how that influences providing instruction and support to them.

This has been a focus of Sapienza’s career as a member of the national Association for Middle Level Education. She has traveled across the country for more than five years as a AMLE presenter teaching other educators about the best practices for teaching middle school-aged children given their stage of psychological and physiological development.

“I hope to bring my passion and passion for middle school learning to everyone who speaks to me,” Sapienza said. “I want to spend this year learning about the Elwood culture and community.”

Democratic town supervisor candidates face off

By Sara-Megan WalSh sara@tbrnewspapers.com Two hopefuls will face off in the Sept. 15 primary to win the Democratic party line in the wide-open race for the Huntington Town supervisor seat. For many, it is the first Democratic primary for town supervisor they can vote in.

Incumbent Huntington Town Supervisor Frank Petrone (D), 72, announced in April he would not be seeking re-election.. He has served for nearly a quarter of a century, as he was first elected to the position in 1993.

Town Councilwoman Tracey Edwards (D) will compete for votes against community leader Darryl St. George (D), of Centerport, to determine who will attempt to fill Petrone’s shoes.

Tracey Edwards

Edwards has made the decision to step forward and run for supervisor, rather than seek re-election to a second term as a town council member. If she does not win the Democratic primary, she may no longer serve Huntington as an elected official.

“I chose to run for town supervisor versus running for re-election,” Edwards said. “This is not about me. This is about what I believe is best for Huntington.”

Edwards was elected to the town board in 2014, after serving 10 years on the board of education in the Elwood school district. She previously served on the board of directors of the Long Island Association and worked for 37 years at Verizon, starting as an operator and climbing the ladder to regional president of network operations.

Over the last three years, Edwards spearheaded the creation of Huntington Opportunity Resource Center, a program that offers assistance with job hunting and career training for unemployed and underemployed residents. She has also been an advocate for Huntington Station revitalization, a plan which includes construction of veteran’s housing, art space, stores, sidewalks, and a parking garage while also working to stamp out crime.

“The biggest issue is public safety and safe neighborhoods,” Edwards said. “That is always No. 1.”

If elected supervisor, Edwards said her primary goal is to improve public safety, making more affordable housing for millenials and seniors, working with families to address ever growing opioid and heroin dependency, and expanding the town’s environmental initiatives.

“I think what [voters] have to do is really decide who has the business experience, the civic experience and governmental experience to make the changes necessary to take the town forward,” Edwards said. “We have work to do.”

Edwards will be attending Huntington Awareness Day, Sept. 9 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Stimson Middle School, located at 401 Oakwood Road in Huntington Station

Darryl St. George

St. George was one of the first to announce he would seek election as town supervisor in February, prior to Petrone’s announcement he would not seek re-election.

He said he previously contemplated running

“The political landscape from February till now has shifted dramatically, what has not shifted is my resolve,” St. George said.

St. George works as a Northport High School teacher, where he is the co-advisor of Northport High School branch of Students Against Destructive Decisions and the advisor of Project Vets, a club that works to improve the lives of veterans once they return home. He previously taught at St. Anthony’s High School in Huntington.

St. George is a U.S. Navy veteran who served a nine-month tour of duty in Afghanistan in 2011. Upon returning home, he served as the president of Greenlawn Civic Association for three years. In that role, St. George said he addressed public safety issues and opioid and heroin addiction.

“I was proud to be in that position,” St. George said. “I felt we were able to grow the civic association and get a lot of young people involved.”

If elected supervisor, St. George said he would focus on improving public safety by addressing in addition to opioid addiction, gang issues, protection of the environment and democratic reform to make town government more accessible for people to become involved.

“The real difference between the supervisor and the town board is a supervisor must be a leader,” he said. “A leader should have a vision and be able to communicate that vision clearly, build consensus on the town board and in the community so the vision can be translated into action. I have a track record of doing that as a teacher, as a veteran who served in the U.S. Navy, as a civic leader and as an activist.”

St. George will be holding a fundraising event Sept. 9 at 6:45 p.m. at the Conklin Brush Barn, located at 2 High Street in Huntington.

Polls will be open for primaries Sept.

12 from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Huntington Town residents are eligible to vote in the supervisor race if you are a registered Democrat, at least 18 years old, have lived at your current address at least 30 days before the election,

Huntington helps Hurricane Harvey victims

by Sara-Megan WalSh, alex PetroSki, rita J. egan, kevin redding and deSirée keegan Hurricane Harvey ripped through the Gulf of Mexico and the eastern coast of Texas as a Category 4 storm, dumping historic floodwaters on the region and leaving hundreds of thousands of people displaced from their homes, injured or worse. About 1,700 miles away several efforts to raise money and accumulate food and supplies for those affected sprung up across the North Shore this past week into the weekend. Business owners, nonprofits, citizens and even kids pitched in to try to help in the early stages of getting victims back on their feet.

Huntington Two Huntington auto-shop owners found themselves unable to stand by without taking action after watching televised news broadcasts of the widespread flooding in Houston. It struck a painful reminder of Hurricane Sandy, five years ago this fall.

“I was watching the news with my wife, that morning, and my kids were very upset,” said Huntington resident George Schwertl.

“We’re sitting here right now very comfortable and as we saw on the news, it’s a mess down there. We have to help.”

Schwertl, owner of Schwertl Auto Body in Islandia, and Andre Sorrentino, owner of PAS Auto Body in Huntington, coordinated as massive donation drive for the victims of Hurricane Harvey in coordination with Dom Spada, second assistant chief of Halesite Fire Department.

Halesite firefighters are particularly sympathetic to the damage flooding can cause, Spada said, given the area’s flooding in past storms and rescue missions of stranded automobile drivers.

“Water can be a nasty thing and wreck havoc on people’s homes and their lives.

We had to do something,” Spada said. “We know how water can be, as we’ve had it with our own residents. We know what they are going through and it’s probably at least 10 times what we have gone through.”

Halesite’s Fire Chief Greg Colonna sent out a mass email to local residents Aug. 30 calling for donations of nonperishable food, toiletries, hygiene products, water, blankets and dog food to be dropped off to one of the participating businesses, the firehouse or one of its sister fire districts — Dix Hills, East Northport or Huntington Manor — by Sept. 6.

Schwertl said he and Sorrentino originally rented five Sprinter vans to be driven by local volunteers down to Houston Sept. 7, but that number had grown to eight trucks and tractor trailers, and was still growing.

“We’ve had a great turnout everywhere with the businesses, the fire departments,” Schwertl said. “It’s an incredible turnout, to see everyone coming together. People are volunteering to drive down with us, they are volunteering and offering trucks.”

The group has been coordinating with a legislative aide from U.S. Congressman Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) who previously lived in Texas, Suffolk County Legislator Chad Lupinacci (R-Huntington Station), and state

halesite Fire department coordinated with two huntington business owners to serve as a drop-off point for donations to hurricane harvey victims through Sept. 6.

Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) to get the specific locations of shelters in need of supplies, according to Schwertl.

“We want to be positive that when we get there they will take the donations and it will go into the right hands,” Sorrentino said.

The convoy of trucks and trailers driven by a mixed volunteer of retirees, construction workers, servicemen from Hauppauge to Huntington plans to depart late Sept. 7 for Texas.

Huntington shelters

A Huntington nonprofit has collaborated with the Town of Huntington to make sure that all of Hurricane Harvey’s victims, big and small, are getting aid so desperately needed.

Little Shelter Animal Rescue & Adoption Center of Huntington reached out and made arrangements with an animal rescue group in Rockwall, Texas, to accept shelter dogs and cats for adoption to make more room for more four-legged refugees.

“We are giving more room for the shelters down there so they can do the right thing, take in and reunite pets that they are still finding in the floods right now,” Little Shelter executive director, David Ceely, said.

Ceely said Sept. 1 that the plans were underway to arrange transportation of approximately a dozen shelter animals up to Delaware where they will be handed off, and driven the rest of the way to New York with their expected arrival on Labor Day. The animals were then going to be split up for lodging with five dogs and three cats going to stay at Little Shelter, according to Ceely, while the Town of Huntington’s Animal Shelter was going to accept three to five dogs.

“Town municipal shelters don’t normally do this type of thing,” he said. “For Huntington Animal Shelter to do this is groundbreaking.”

The plans to transport these animals hit a speed bump earlier this week, according to Huntington spokesman A.J. Carter, who said the transportation of the animals was delayed due to legal issues with getting health certifications needed to allow pets to travel across state lines.

If the legal issues can be sorted, Ceely said the animals will be required to be put under a two-week quarantine period for medical and behavioral screening before being put up for adoption.

Port Jefferson

In October it will be 40 years that Joseph Higgins has owned Tara Inn pub on Main Street in upper Port. When Higgins heard of the devastation in Houston and the surrounding region as a result of Hurricane Harvey, he said it resonated with him in a way that left him feeling like action was required. The pub owner decided to hold a benefit Sept. 4, Labor Day, to raise money for people affected by the massive storm. In addition to the sale of raffle tickets and Harvey relief T-shirts donated by Port Jefferson Sporting Goods, Higgins pledged to donate 100 percent of the bar’s food and beverage sales from the day to a group providing aid for victims in the region.

Tara Inn amassed more than $15,200 in sales and donations during the course of the day, which will be donated to the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization which was created to honor the memory of Siller, who was a firefighter killed in the line of duty Sept. 11, 2001. The organization is asking for donations to help Harvey victims on its website, and 100 percent of the money raised will go toward supplies and helping those affected.

“Forty years ago I had eight kids, my wife and I didn’t have two nickels to rub together, and I said, ‘God, help me raise these kids,’ and he did,” the 86-year-old Higgins said during the event, while seated near the pub’s front door with a container for additional donations. “And I can’t thank God enough for all he has given me and that’s why we give back. I’ve had a great life, and I like to give back. There have been times in my life where I had an opportunity to do something good and I didn’t do it, and I always regret that. Every time something comes along that we can do for somebody else, I want to do it.”

Tara Inn was filled with guests and vol-

unteers throughout the day, including two of Higgins’ daughters.

“This is the family business, and we’ve done fundraisers in the past, and we just thought it was our small contribution to people that have been really devastated,” said Tara Higgins, whom the bar was named after. “Our customers are very loyal and really step up when we do fundraisers.”

Bubba Davis, a Port Jefferson Village resident for 78 years, was among those in attendance for the fundraiser at Tara Inn. “This family here, they’ve always done that — they’re fantastic people,” Davis said.

Higgins’ wife of 65 years, Pat, was also at the pub for the event.

“He has the biggest heart in the world,” she said of her husband. “We feel so sorry for all the poor kids.”

In addition to the Tara Inn fundraiser, an emergency clothing drive will be hosted Sept. 9 at the Avalon Park barn in Stony Brook from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. by Knead 2 Feed, an organization that works with Port Jeff elementary school students to help the homeless. The organization, which was founded by former Port Jeff resident Jane Parker, features about 40 kids from the local area ranging from 5 to 14 years old who typically meet once a month to fulfill their mission of collecting goods to donate to a homeless shelter in Manhattan. This month their meet up will be the clothing drive.

“It’s a great group of kids who we’re really just teaching how important volunteering is and just trying to inspire them to be altruistic and help other people,” Parker said in a phone interview. She added the group has plans to drive a U-Haul truck to Texas in the coming weeks to deliver the bounty from the clothing drive.

Port Jefferson high school graduate Shaughnessy Harrison and her team at Keller Williams Realty Homes & Estates also collected donations of supplies to fill a truck headed to Texas Sept. 7.

STAT Health Urgent Care centers, including the one in Port Jefferson Station, also accepted donations of supplies and nonperishable foods through Sept. 4, which were loaded into a truck and driven to Texas this week.

Setauket

A few days after Hurricane Harvey left devastation behind in its wake in southeastern Texas, a Setauket business owner sat in his office surrounded by boxes and bags of much-needed staples.

Eric Cohen, president of True View Window Cleaning and Power Washing, said he was watching news coverage of the hurricane with his 12-year-old daughter Jamie when she turned to him and said, “That’s not going to happen to us Daddy, right?”

The Port Jeff resident said he started explaining to her there was no need to worry because volunteers would bring the flood victims food and help rebuild their houses.

It was then he said he realized he needed to do something.

“I figured she’d grasp it better if I did something than explain it,” Cohen said.

The business owner decided he would

High school buddies In anticipation of school starting next week, Harborfields High School held its annual Buddy Program on Aug. 29. This program helps introduce incoming freshman to the high school with an upperclassman as their guide.

Assistant Principal Christopher Patronaggio welcomed the Class of 2021 to high school and encouraged them to use the day to ask as many questions as possible of their buddy.

At the same time, Principal Tim Russo encouraged upperclassmen to make sure no freshman was without a buddy, and to answer any and all questions they had.

“I want the upperclassmen to remem-

ber what it was like when they started high school and to treat their buddies accordingly,” Russo said.

The two groups were brought together in the gymnasium, waving and greeting each other in excitement. Clusters of buddies formed and left promptly for tours of the school.

Incoming freshman Kate Lynprainito, before being paired with a buddy, remarked, “I have a general idea of where I’m going, but I think having a buddy will help me solidify my knowledge of where everything is. I’m glad I signed up for this program.”

Elwood High School

For the first time in the Northport-East Northport School District, a week-long districtwide Summer Choral Clinic was established from Aug. 14 to 18 for students in grades 5 to 12. More than 200 students participated in the program which included a half day and full day choir camp for fifth- and sixth-graders.

In the past, the district hosted a traditional four-week summer music program for elementary and middle school students.

They decided to restructure the program this year by cutting it down to one week, meeting the needs and schedules of more students. As a result, the program saw an increase in student participation.

Led by Northport High School tour choir directors Ellen McCarthy and Nicholas Hart, Northport Middle School music teacher Erica Nottingham, and guest clinician Ben Johns from Eastman Music Conservatory, students learned to play world drums, explored proper vocal techniques and learned about music history. They also learned various musical theater techniques such as how to stage a choral number and overall stage presence.

“I really love the dancing,” incoming fifthgrade Bellerose Avenue student Jessica Proffe said. “I got to be a little bird in the song ‘So

Long, Farewell’ and I haven’t used my voice in this way in a while.”

Members of the Northport High School tour choir also participated in the clinic to build their vocal skills as part of the upper level choir. They participated in various team-building exercises and icebreakers throughout the program.

“This was the first year that we included fifth- and sixth-graders into the choir clinic,” said Hart. “We are hoping that the program continues to grow and are always looking for different ways to add to and improve the clinic.”

At the conclusion of the week, the students showcased their talents during an evening concert in the high school auditorium for family and friends. Students in grades five and six donned colorful wigs and performed “Get Back Up Again” from the film “Trolls,” a special choreographed performance of “So Long, Farewell” from “The Sound of Music” and “We Know the Way” from “Moana.”

The upper level choir which included mostly students in grades nine to 12 with a few seventh- and eighth-graders, performed “Sicut Cervus” by Palestrina, “Fa Una Canzone” by Vecchi, “Wade in the Water,” “Summertime” arranged by Roderick Williams, and “Somewhere” from “West Side Story.” The program ended with a powerful rendition of “‘Tis the Gift to be Simple” which included all the singers in the clinic.

A fresh start On Aug. 29, Elwood-John H. Glenn High School welcomed the Class of 2021 with a special freshman orientation. Principal Carisa Burzynski, along with other members of the administration and faculty, offered a warm welcome to incoming students, as well as the Elwood Freshman Buddies, who volunteered to provide school tours to freshmen and answer any questions they had.

In her welcome address, Burzynski encouraged students to view freshman year as a fresh start and to focus on doing their best.

“Work hard, and take advantage of all of the opportunities John Glenn high school provides,” she said.

The district’s mission statement was read aloud by a freshman buddy, which encompassed a vision of providing excellent educa-

tion and empowering and inspiring each and every student to succeed. To illustrate this “growth mindset,” Burzynski showed a video of a mother duck waiting patiently as her baby ducklings persevered to climb upstairs.

“We all get to where we need to on our own time,” she said. “We need to root for each other.”

Freshmen were then paired with their buddies, who gave ninth-graders a tour of the school.

“I’m really glad I was elected to help with the orientation,” student Matt McDermot remarked. “It’s fun to help the new students find their way around a place I know so well.”

To conclude the orientation, freshmen received their school Chromebooks, an expansion of the initiative that first started at Elwood Middle School when the Class of 2021 entered sixth grade.

Warm welcome

The Harborfields Central School District held an orientation for all new teachers entering their schools Aug. 29. The purpose of the orientation was to acclimate the new staff to the policies and procedures of the district, as well as the community and the culture of the surrounding area.

During the day, teachers got to know each other and worked closely with administrators on some new technological initiatives that Harborfields is implementing.

Each new teacher was given a mentor to ensure success during their first year and onward into the future. They were also encouraged take part in workshops for professional development beginning in the fall, covering topics from emotional health and mindfulness to being technologically savvy.

“We want this transition to be as smooth as possible,” executive director for instructional services Jordan Cox said. “We want them to know what the district’s expectations are, but also to feel at home and a part of our family here at Harborfields.”

‘It’s overwhelming how many people are here to show their love, their support.’

— Father raj Savarimuthu

Hundreds attended the funeral of East Northport native Saverio DeLaurentis Sept. 1 at St. Anthony of Padua after hearing he had no known family or relatives.

Veteran Continued from page A3 day for a 85-year-old gentleman,” Hamann wrote. “No family, a court-appointed representative made the arrangements. We are calling around to ask anyone who might be available to attend the mass. It would be nice if he didn’t make his last journey alone.”

American Legion Greenlawn Post 1244, American Legion Riders Greenlawn Post

1244, Northport Veterans of Foreign Wars, Commack Fire Department, New York City Fire Riders, and several Boy Scouts were among the many who turned out to salute DeLaurentis as his casket was carried into the church.

“We saw the Facebook post about this and we didn’t think anyone would be here,” said Paul Carnevale, second assistant chief of Commack Fire Department. “We wanted to show our support and give him an honorable send off.”

Among those in the funeral procession

were two of DeLaurentis’ relatives and two personal friends.

“It’s overwhelming how many people are here to show their love, their support,” said Father Raj Savarimuthu during the funeral mass. “Thank you. Thank you.”

Savarimuthu, who has served as a priest for 39 years, repeatedly expressed that it was “so beautiful” to see the community’s support of a hometown hero.

The turnout for DeLaurentis’ funeral was so unexpected that St. Anthony of Padua’s clergy was forced to make an unusual deci-

sion during communion. The host, or physical offering served to parishioners during communion, was being broken and handed out in quarters, according to Hamann.

“It turned into something we didn’t expect,” Hamann said, despite 20 years in the ministry of consolation. “It’s something good in this world when there’s so much ugliness out there.” The American Legion Riders escorted DeLaurentis’ funeral process to Calverton National Cemetery in Wading River where he was buried Sept. 1 with full military honors.

Police: Man arrested under Leandra’s Law Suffolk County police arrested a Centerport man for driving while intoxicated with one stepson in the vehicle, after he was involved in a motor vehicle crash in Centerport Sept. 4 in which he hit another stepson with his car.

Scott Lipton was driving his 2017 Jaguar southbound on Laurel Hill Road when his vehicle struck his 13-year-old stepson, who was walking his dog, and then a pole at approximately 5:50 p.m.

The 13-year-old was transported by Suffolk County police helicopter to Stony Brook University Hospital for treatment of a broken leg. Lipton’s 9-year-old stepson, who was a passenger in the car, was transported by Centerport Fire Department to Huntington Hospital for treatment of nonlife-threatening injuries. Lipton, 42 of Laurel Hill Road, was not injured. The dog was not injured.

Second Squad detectives charged Lipton with aggravated driving while intoxicated with a child passenger 15 years or younger pursuant to Leandra’s Law, operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated, and endangering the welfare of a child. He was held overnight at the 2nd Precinct.

Lipton was arraigned at First District Court in Central Islip Sept. 5 and released on bail of $20,000 bond.

Trees were uprooted as part of the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.

Scott Lipton, 42, of Centerport was arrested Sept. 4 under Leandra’s Law for driving while intoxicated and endangering the welfare of a child.

This year, forecasters predict an abovenormal hurricane season in the Atlantic. Hurricanes and tropical storms can cause serious damage to coastal and inland areas, including storm surge, heavy rainfall, coastal and inland flooding, high winds and tornadoes.

To help Long Islanders prepare for these types of storms, U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) hosted a seminar with representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, American Red Cross and Suffolk County Fire Rescue and Emergency Services Aug. 28 at Brookhaven Town Hall to provide information to help residents prepare for, stay safe during and recover from hurricane storm systems. Residents also learned more about how these organizations measure, track and forecast hurricane activity.

“As we are witnessing in Texas with Hurricane Harvey, it is vitally important to be as

prepared as possible in the case of a hurricane or tropical storm,” Zeldin said. “New Yorkers unfortunately know this all too well. In 2012, Hurricane Sandy hit New York hard and devastated our coastal communities and businesses on Long Island, leaving mass destruction in its wake. The common message among all of the presentations was: Be prepared. The key is to be informed, make a plan, build an emergency kit and get involved.”

Hurricane Tips: •Put together a go-bag of disaster supplies •Trim or remove damaged trees and limbs and clean gutters to keep your property safe •Cover windows/install storm shutters •Review evacuation routes •Charge cellphones in advance •Set family emergency communication plan •Purchase generator or create a safe room For more on how to best prepare in the event of a hurricane, visit www.ready.gov/hurricanes.

This past weekend, he loaded a 24-foot enclosed trailer with cases of water, granola bars, Ramen noodles, canned goods, diapers, toothpaste, deodorant and blankets.

Cohen said he’s excited and the donation drive has been satisfying, but he is a bit nervous about the trip. Before choos-

His daughter said she thinks Cohen’s volunteer mission is cool.

“It’s nice because we have a lot of things that they used to have, and now they don’t have anything, and now he’s going to help them,” Jamie said.

In addition to Cohen’s Hurricane Harvey relief drive, Alchemy Martial Arts and Fitness of Setauket, located at 254 Main St., will be accepting donations for flood victims until Sept. 16. All contributions will be dropped off at U.S. Rep. Tom Souzzi’s (DGlen Cove) office in Huntington.

Havrilla nabs shutout, McNelis scores Tigers goal in win

By Desirée Keegan Desiree@tbrnewspapers.com Determined and gutsy in goal, Northport’s Emma Havrilla has her sights set on another successful season.

After prohibiting opponents from scoring in 13 matchups last year, the senior goalkeeper secured another shutout — a 1-0 victory in the Tigers girls soccer team’s first game of the season against Ward Melville Sept. 2.

Northport 1 Ward Melville 0

“It felt really good,” Havrilla said of the away win. “Since we were reigning county champs last year this shows we’re ready to come out hard for it again this year.”

Even when the Patriots carried out multiple corner-kick attempts and pressured inside the box to try to avenge an overtime loss in last season’s Suffolk semifinals, Northport head coach Aija Gipp never questioned Havrilla’s abilities or her judgment calls.

“Having Emma back there — we trust her with every decision she makes,” she said.

And there were some close calls to be made. The senior leaped out and grabbed possession after each corner kick the Patriots took, and when Ward Melville sophomore midfielder Kiley Hamou had a breakaway opportunity with 30 minutes left in the game, Havrilla came out and tapped the ball to her right, and dodged to the left to secure possession of the ball on the rebound shot.

“I saw her take a bad touch, that’s when I come off my line,” Havrilla said. “Considering we tied them 0-0 and won in penalty kicks last year, it’s great to win against them this year.”

She too doesn’t have any doubt, as it pertains to her defensive line, despite the crop of

younger competitors this year.

“We’ve put in a lot of work and I trust the girls in front of me,” she said. “We’re still just as strong.”

Senior midfielder Emily McNelis sealed the deal for Northport with 8:20 left in the first half, with the help of a foul called on Ward Melville for a handball. Isabel Yeomans stepped up to send the ball into play, McNelis got a touch on the ball and sent it past Ward Melville junior goalkeeper Samantha Tarpey for the 1-0 lead.

“She was where she needed to be,” Gipp said. “Having Emily there,

the goal, it was picture perfect.”

McNelis agreed with Havrilla that with Ward Melville being one of the toughest teams the Tigers will face, the win shows Northport is ready to rumble.

“Everyone played with so much heart and such a desire to win — we had great intensity and we kept it going,” McNelis said. “Ward Melville came out for blood today, and this shows that even though we lost a lot of key players last year, we’ve come out even better, and we’re still the top team to beat.”

The Harborfields and Smithtown varsity girls swim teams came together Aug. 30 at the Centerport Yacht Club for a mile-long pool swim to raise money and awareness for cancer research, prevention and treatment through the Swim Across America organization.

Harborfields has participated for the past 3 years and was happy to welcome Smithtown to join in the effort for their first year.

Collectively, over 40 swimmers raised $4,000 dollars to benefit the cause and both teams have committed to swim again next summer.

“I would like to congratulate and thank all the students who participated and those who helped to coordinate this year’s swim benefit.

Your commitment and support will make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.” said Suffolk County Legislator William R. Spencer (D-Centerport).

Swim Across America is a national nonprofit which aims to unite the swimming community to raise money for a network of doctors and researchers pioneering the development of new cures and treatments for cancer.

Since its inaugural season in 1987, SAA has fundraised over $65 million and grown from a single event in Nantucket to 15 open water benefit swims across the country and 100 annual pool swims.

Residential Styles Learn about the home styles in your market and beyond. Our Residential Styles guide includes illustrations, photographs, and detailed descriptions about popular styles. Plus, use our Home Features guide to learn about architectural elements such as dormers, roofs, and arches that make a property distinct.

Art Deco A vertically oriented design includes flat roofs and metal window casements.

Neoclassical Neoclassical homes exist in incarnations from onestory cottages to multilevel manses.

Bungalow A forerunner of the craftsman style, you'll find rustic exteriors and sheltered-feeling interiors.

Prairie Originated by Frank Lloyd Wright, this style can be house boxy or lowslung.

Cape Cod A true classic, Cape Cod homes have gabled roofs and unornamented fronts.

Pueblo Flat roofs, straightedge window frames, and earth-colored walls typify Pueblos.

Colonial An offshoot of the Cape Cod style, it features a rectangular design and secondfloor bedrooms.

Queen Anne Emerging in the Victorian era, the style features inventive floor plans and decorative chimneys.

Contemporary Unmistakably modern, this style has odd-sized windows and little ornamentation.

Ranch Ranch homes are set apart by pitched-roof construction, built-in garages, and picture windows.

Craftsman Full- or partial-width porches are framed by tapered columns and overhanging eaves.

Real reason Cook didn’t run for supervisor

Photo by Kevin Redding

Volunteers at the Mount Sinai Fire Department load up boxes of donated food and health care items to be sent to Texas.

Helping Houston while uniting the nation Across Long Island there’s been a rallying cry from Suffolk County government officials, fire departments, local businesses and residents for donations to support the victims of Hurricane Harvey in Texas and surrounding areas. These outpourings of charitable efforts have helped repoint our society in the right direction after recent events, but it shouldn’t take a national disaster to do so. Two poignant anniversaries on the horizon remind of us of our shared values as Americans, which shouldn’t only arise in times of crisis.

It is not within our ability to control the actions of the Charlottesville protesters or national policies on immigration, but we have the personal power to decide how to respond.

In the wake of the election of President Donald Trump (R) last November, Long Island communities dealt with an increased wave of hate crimes and bullying, which included a hate note found on a Rocky Point student’s desk, and swastikas spray-painted on walls at Northport High School.

This summer, Charlottesville protesters’ messages rippled outward, creating divisions in our local communities between those of different skin colors, religions and sexual preferences. The day after, unity rallies were held in Huntington, Port Jefferson and Three Village areas in response.

Long Islanders have proven time and time again we are stronger united than divided. Next week, on the 16th anniversary of the attacks, we’ll remember how in the months following Sept. 11, 2001, our communities pulled together to give love and support to those families who lost loved ones, and we displayed American flags as patriotic signs of our joint front against terrorism. After Hurricane Sandy, which struck five years ago this fall, we saw residents gather food and make monetary donations to help those whose homes were damaged rebuild their lives.

The momentum of these powerful events can and should be carried forward, especially in the wake of Hurricane Irma now hitting Florida.

These seemingly small but positive actions build a loving and supportive community that we not only can be proud of, but also want to live in.

We encourage you to take a moment to pay it forward with an act of kindness. Reach out and contact one of the groups collecting donations for Hurricane Harvey victims to find out how you can help, attend a 9/11 memorial ceremony to remember those who gave their lives, thank a veteran for their service to our country or help a neighbor with a difficult chore.

If you know someone whose actions have made a positive difference, we’re all ears — and we thank those who are helping to make a difference and save lives.

It has come to my attention that there are grumblings that I, Lisa Cook the wife of Town of Huntington Councilman Eugene Cook, was the reason he dropped out of the race for Huntington Town Supervisor. I feel compelled to set the record straight.

The truth of the matter is that my husband withdrew from the race for supervisor when the leader of one of the parties who was backing him would not agree to welcome a more diversified ticket of running mates.

Gene strongly believes that the Town of Huntington is a melting pot of people from many ethnic backgrounds, religions and varying beliefs, and that there are an equal amount, (or greater), number of women in the township. He understands that choosing a team of candidates that reflect only a portion of the constituent base is an injustice to the Town of Huntington. A highly qualified candidate like Jennifer Thompson would be a great addition to the Huntington Town Board, while representing the township fairly and bringing better balance to the ticket.

If you recall, Ms. Thompson was a newcomer in the 2015 race for town council, who only lost by a very small margin.

Many believe Jennifer Thompson would not have lost if political parties had not once again made their back room deals in order to place their preferred people into different positions; and that this was accomplished when they placed a “straw candidate” on one of the lines to draw votes away from her. Unfortunately,

political powers were successful at their human game of chess.

When Gene made this very difficult decision he discussed all of this with our family. I, our four daughters and son all supported his decision and are extremely proud of him.

The fact of the matter remains unchanged — Gene made his thoughts and beliefs extremely clear through the process of being chosen as the candidate for supervisor to all the party leaders involved. It is not my fault that one of these leaders refused to listen. When it was brought to light, Gene responded in an email stating his intent to pull out of the race if the diversity of the ticket was not addressed.

There was radio silence from her, and now it seems that she

is now trying to save face with angry constituents by blaming me, Gene’s wife.

Sadly, because this is known to go on in every political party, I had my reservations and concerns when my husband was getting involved in politics. After seeing him in action, I realized that he made a difference. It became clear to me that he still continued to follow his beliefs and stay true to his integrity and would not become your average politician. This is the reason I have stood by his side and always supported him in his many races.

It is my opinion that political parties care more about their power than they do about people and the betterment of the community. The truth of the matter is that the biggest losers here are the residents of the Town of Huntington. It is my belief that at no time have we ever had a more effective councilman on the town board than Eugene Cook. He is able to get things done faster than anyone that I, or the residents have ever witnessed before. Most importantly, it’s at the lowest cost to the taxpayers.

I so strongly believe in the abilities of my husband Eugene Cook, that I plan to vote for him as a write-in candidate for Huntington Town Supervisor on Nov. 7, and I urge everyone else that is as disappointed as I am to do the same.

I hope this sets the record straight.

Lisa Cook, Greenlawn Wife of Gene Cook

Keeping politics out of public pensions As a small business owner in New York, I don’t have much time to follow politics. I’m focused on doing the things I need to do to ensure that sales are strong and our employees are able to put food on their tables.

But a recent proposal making its way through the New York State Legislature has me concerned not only for the future of my business, but the state economy as a whole.

Earlier this year, state Sen. Liz Krueger (D-Manhattan) submitted a piece of legislation dubbed the Fossil Fuel Divestment Act. Krueger’s proposal would force the state comptrol-

ler to remove all fossil fuel-related investments from the New York pension system.

Referred to as “divestment,” this legislation is a bad idea for several reasons — principally because it will reduce the value of the New York pension system, with taxpayers forced to make up the shortfall. Small business owners in New York have seen enough of politicians prioritizing politics over good economic policy, and the end result is nearly always a tax increase for the mom-and-pop companies that are the engine of the state’s economy.

I don’t mind paying my fair

share, but I trust that our elected officials will use those tax dollars wisely. Legislation like the Fossil Fuel Divestment Act breaches that trust by forcing the state to make less lucrative investments, leaving taxpayers to foot the bill for political posturing that will drive down the value of the pensions we promise to our state employees.

As a small business owner, I encourage the New York State Legislature to reject this legislation and keep politics out of public pensions.

OpiniOn Still loving the beautiful Carole King songs

H

ow difficult must it be to become someone else? Somehow, Abby Mueller, an actress who probably isn’t a household name, transforms into the legendary singer Carole King in the Broadway musical “Beautiful.”

It’s a risky proposition. Many of us already know songs like “So Far Away” and “Will You Love Me Tomorrow,” which means we know what the song should sound like, even if we can’t sing it in tune.

And yet, Mueller, who is clearly the star of a show about anBy Daniel Dunaief other star, pulls it off incredibly well, giving us the energy, the soul, the innocence and the ambition of a remarkable talent.

Watching and, more importantly, lis-

D. None of the above

tening to the show is a transformative experience. Music has that remarkable power, bringing us back to a car when we might have often heard “Up on the Roof” or sending us back in our minds to a dance party where we threw ourselves across the floor of a friend’s house as we invented our own steps to “The Loco-Motion,” where “everybody’s doing a brand new dance, now.”

Even though the dance isn’t so brand new anymore, it feels revived when we watch the high energy action on stage.

My wife and I snuck away before the end of the summer to see the musical, which left us humming and singing the songs through the next day.

The musical itself, like many other Broadway stories, is a collection of dialogue, a loose story and a compilation of rollicking music. The story line follows the musical career of King and her writing partner and husband Gerry Goffin, whom she married when she was 17 and pregnant. The audience feels as if it’s witnessing the birth of

these songs, as Goffin pairs his familiar lyrics to the music King wrote.

The first half of the show, which is considerably longer than the second, is like a collection of musical candy tossed to a hungry audience.

I snuck glances around the room at some of the other people fortunate enough to take a musical joyride and I saw that, like me, several of the guests, who were mostly in their late 40s and older, had smiles plastered on their faces.

The second act doesn’t contain as many songs and delves into the more challenging and sadder parts of King’s life, where she endures the hardship of her husband’s infidelities and the creative tension that sometimes won the battle over his creative talent.

King, as we know, lands on her feet, becoming the legendary composer, singer and songwriter who was inducted with Goffin into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1987 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990 for their songwriting.

The energy on stage throughout the

show, with performances by a talented team reviving the style and moves of the Shirelles and the Drifters, rival the thrill of watching the cast of “Mamma Mia!” who belted out the familiar Abba songs.

The difference here, however, is that the script is not a plot written to tie together songs, but evolves as the backstory behind the early days of music that long ago circled the United States and the world.

“Beautiful: The Carole King Musical” definitely lives up to the awards it has won, including the 2015 Grammy for best musical theater album and its two Tony Awards in 2014, which include a well-deserved honor for Mueller.

The only speed bump during this otherwise wonderful ride is the dramatic downshifting in the second act, where the drama, while no doubt true to life, slows the musical momentum.

Still, the conclusion and the experience are rewarding, allowing us to reconnect with the legendary singer’s past, and our own.

Benefits of a good night’s sleep, and protein bars

I

f you have had a particularly nasty fight with your spouse or best friend today, consider this. How well did each of you sleep last night?

It may not come as a surprise that a good night’s sleep makes one feel calm and good natured the next morning.

But how many of us consider the ramifications of poor or too little sleep one night on our behavior and relationships the next day?

We may feel out of sorts, perhaps below our awareness radar, and that can lead to more difficult and even

By Leah S. Dunaief acrimonious interactions with those at work, in our daily routines and especially with our spouses. Even worse, it may affect our health.

A study at Ohio State University of 43 couples and how their bickering could influence their health tracked the

Between you and me

subjects spouses most often argue over: managing money, spending family time together or an in-law intruding on their lives. According to an article in The New York Times Science section, “Relationship Problems? Try Getting More Sleep” by Tara Parker-Pope, Sept.

4, the study revealed that some couples argue calmly, even constructively, while others were “hostile and negative.”

The difference? The hostile couples were likely not getting enough sleep, usually less than at least seven hours.

So before you give up on a relationship, consider the sleep factor. With enough sleep, you will still have disagreements, but the tone of the conflicts will probably be more patient.

The Ohio State study goes further.

It purports to measure how marital discord together with sleep deprivation can negatively affect a person’s health.

The way the university measured for this possible toxic effect was by taking blood samples from both members of the couple before and after an argument. The samples measured the level of inflammation in the body because inflammatory proteins have been linked with heart disease, cancer and

other health problems. The results showed that “marital discord is more toxic to your body when you haven’t gotten enough sleep.”

Interestingly, when one member of the couple got adequate sleep, it mitigated the negative tone of the conflict, even if the other member was sleep deprived. So that suggests “a half-a-loaf is better than none” conclusion.

The article goes on to reveal that some 25 percent of couples sleep in separate beds, presumably in order to get more undisturbed rest. “And when one relationship partner doesn’t sleep well, his or her partner is more likely to report poor health and well-being.”

In conclusion: “The lesson, say the study authors, is that before concluding a relationship is in trouble, couples who regularly experience conflict should take stock not only of the relationship and how they are managing conflict, but also of their sleep habits.” The study was published in the May edition of the journal Psychoneuroendocrinology, hardly most people’s bedtime reading but offering an article to better understand the universal need in a marriage for adequate sleep.

In addition to all the authoritative information above, I can offer another nugget in the advice for marrieds department. Mine is anecdotal, not academic. Disagreements don’t go well if one or both members of a couple are hungry. Hunger starts out as insidious rather than full blown, and so it is often hard to identify the mood change when in the midst of a difficult discussion or even in an idyllic setting. But hunger can forcibly affect one’s outlook and certainly one’s patience.

I found this to be particularly true with my husband. (I’m not making a gender specific allegation here, just sayin’.) We could be having a perfectly lovely time at the zoo or some other outing, and for no apparent reason, he would begin to get cranky. The level of his crankiness would rise as we continued to stroll. Fortunately I eventually figured it out and began to carry protein bars in my pocket. At the right moment, I would pull two out and offer him one. Within merely a couple of minutes, all was again right with the world.
