Huntington residents can pay tribute to those who have served this Veterans Day at several parades and ceremonies Nov. 11.

Honoring all Huntington’s vets 154049

COME& JOIN

There are two events being held to recognize Town of Huntington veterans for their service to our country this weekend.

In commemoration of Veterans Day, American Legion Greenlawn Post 1244 will hold its annual Veterans Day Observance Nov. 11 at 11 a.m., at the Greenlawn Memorial Park Monument, at the intersection of Pulaski Road and Broadway in Greenlawn.

“Veterans Day is a day to honor not just those who have fought for us in battle, but, in fact, all of the outstanding men and women who served in our nation’s Armed Forces since our founding 241 years ago,” said post spokesman Bob Santo. “Not all veterans have seen war, but a common bond they share is the oath in which they expressed their willingness to die defending this nation.”

All veterans and veterans groups in the Town of Huntington are invited to participate in the ceremony.

“What we now call ‘Veterans Day’ began as ‘Armistice Day,’ nearly 100 years ago. It is historically significant that this day continues to be observed on the 11th day of the 11th month, and at 11 a.m., the very hour, in 1918, that the guns of World War I fell silent,” said Dennis Madden, post commander of American Legion Greenlawn Post 1244.

Nearby, the Nissequogue Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 5796 will also hold its annual parade Nov. 11 at 10 a.m. The parade will start at Old Dock road and Church street in Kings Park, and proceed south on Church Street to the Veteran’s Plaza, which is located in front of the Kings Park branch of The Smithtown Library. A ceremony will be held immediately following the parade, with light refreshments to follow at 40 Church Street in Kings Park.

HUNTINGTON YMCA HEALTHY LIVING CENTER

Construction underway on new Huntington YMCA facility GROWING FOR COMMUNITY

“The Y is more than a swimming pool or an athletic field,” said New York State Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport). “At its heart, the Huntington YMCA is a community center where people can engage with physical and mental health and get the care they need.

The Healthy Living and education programs all work to help these local communities and provide very necessary programs to people from all walks of life.”

The Health Living Center is being built in accordance with New York State Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) new health initiative, which calls

for a stronger emphasis on preventive health measures and education.

The nearly $9 million price-tag of the new building is being paid for through a combination of public-private partnership, according to Beverly Lacy, vice president of philanthropy for YMCA LI. The organization has received both a $400,000 and $500,0000 Empire State Development award from the state office which aims to support local business development and job creation through efficient use of financial assistance, and several generous private individual donations.

The Town of Huntington received a municipality grant to improve the parking lots shared by the town’s facilities, the senior center, Huntington YMCA and the Cinema Arts Center.

Construction of the new facility is anticipated to to be complete in 12 to 18 months, according to a YMCA spokesperson.

Once construction is complete, Lacy said that the Huntington YMCA will be able to move its programs currently held in the town’s John J. Flanagan Center, where it rents space, into the new facility.

“We have had a great relationship and it’s good to work with the town, but the facility is a little tired,” Lacey said. It’s hard to keep the heating and cooling where it needs to be.

It’s hard to use the space for our purposes, as for health and wellness classes you want to be able to control the temperature.”

Town spokesman A.J. Carter said there are no future plans for Flanagan center’s use.

The ground has been broken and construction is underway on a new building for the Huntington YMCA that will nearly triple the size of its existing facility, allowing it to expand the programs it offers to the community.

The YMCA of Long Island and Huntington Town officials held a ceremonial groundbreaking Oct. 25 to celebrate the start of construction of a 29,000-square-foot Health Living Center. The new facility will allow Huntington YMCA to expand its fitness and preventative health programs that focus on chronic disease prevention and recovery.

“Our Health Living Center is a tremendous step forward, allowing us the capacity to achieve this goal and provide our community with the programs it needs,” said Anne Brigis, president and CEO of the YMCA of Long Island in a statement. “We have listened intently to the needs of the Huntington community, and we’re excited to begin building our Health Living Center into a gathering place for individuals to grow, learn and lead healthy lives.”

The new state-of-the-art center will include a 7,500-square-foot gym with a suspended running track above it, cycling studios, several multi-purpose adult fitness rooms and a new child care center. There will also be room set aside for the YMCA to expand its programs that focus on chronic

ElEction REsults

Sini seals the deal, incumbents win back seats County sheriff race too close to call

By DesirÉe Keegan anD sara-Megan Walsh Huntington will have a new supervisor for the first time in more than two decades, but it will be a familiar face at the helm for the town’s political shift.

State Assemblyman Chad Lupinacci (RHuntington Station) defeated Councilwoman Tracey Edwards (D), receiving nearly 54 percent of the vote, to usher in a new era of Republican leadership after a highly contested race. He will take the reigns from resigning Supervisor Frank Petrone (D).

“I always think that door-to-door campaigning is one of the most effective things you can do,” Lupinacci said. “It was about three to five hours a day walking houses.

Some politicians will tell you it doesn’t work, but the ones who want to work hard go out and get to know the people, know the issues.

It worked 100 percent.”

Edwards, who received more than 21,000 votes, graciously conceded to Lupinacci as the supervisor-elect.

“I want to congratulate Assemblyman Lupinacci on a hard fought race,” she said.

“We banded together and ran a positive race about things that were important to all of us, but the voters have decided.”

Edwards said she had no regrets about running for town supervisor rather than seeking re-election to a second-term on the town board. Her time serving as one of Huntington’s elected officials will come to an end in January.

It’s still not decided who will be taking her seat on the town council. Republican candidate Ed Smyth and incumbent Councilman Mark Cuthbertson (D) hold a razor-thin lead in the race for Huntington council, with 24,048 and 23,950 votes, respectively, based on the county’s unofficial results. There is less than 1 percentage point separating them from third-place Republican challenger Jim Leonick, who received 23,414 votes. Political newcomer Democrat Emily Rogan who received 22,466 votes trails just behind Leonick.

With less than 500 votes separating Cuthbertson and Leonick, the results will not be confirmed for two weeks.

Yet, the Huntington Republican Party chairwoman Toni Tepe is optimistic about Tuesday night’s victories.

“I’m very satisfied with the results,” Tepe said. “I believe the people in town are looking for change, and I think with the two new fresh faces like Chad and Ed, we will provide that change for residents in this town.”

The town board is only one of a number of races too close to call yet. Democrat Kevin Orelli is in the lead for the town’s supervisor of highways position against Republican John Clark by less than 400 votes.

Republican Suffolk County Legislature candidate Hector Gavilla said Nov. 7 that he would not concede to Huntington Councilwoman Susan Berland (D) in the race to represent Suffolk’s 16th District, despite trailing

“I will immediately begin to assemble a 6,0001 votes to her 7,320.

TOWN

Fort Salonga man runs NYC marathon to honor friend’s battle To honor his close friend’s fight for life, a Fort Salonga resident took his mark in Staten Island Sunday morning for the run of his.

Wayne Trumbull was among the 50,000 participants in the TCS New York City Marathon Nov. 5, running the 26.2-mile race from Staten Island to Central Park to commemorate his friend Paul Gugliuzzo’s perseverance during a harrowing battle with lung failure last year. It was his first time running a marathon.

Trumbull, 50, ran as a member of the American Lung Association team and raised $11,000 for the organization leading up to the marathon. The funds raised will go toward research, advocacy and medical equipment for lung diseases.

Trumbull, a professional tax partner and part-time sports coach, completed the five-borough race with an unofficial time of four hours, 29 minutes, to the roar of thousands of people lining the streets. The loudest of cheers for him came from members of the Fort Salonga community, including Gugliuzzo, who gave Trumbull a high five as he passed by.

“It’s not easy for a casual runner like me to run 26 miles, but when the chips are down, I’m focusing on what Paul went through,” Trumbull said prior to the race. “He was on the brink of death and he bounced back. This is very motivating and emotional for me.”

Gugliuzzo — a Fort Salonga resident, former construction manager and a friend of Trumbull’s since their sons joined the same Kings Park youth baseball team 10 years ago — was diagnosed with upper lobe emphysema and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in 2009.

His conditions progresPhotos from Wayne Trumbull sively worsened, and in Fort Salonga resident Wayne March 2016 he underwent Trumbull, pictured above a bilateral lung volume releft, ran his first marathon duction surgery at Columbia in honor of his friend, Paul Presbyterian Hospital in New gugliuzzo, who survived York City. His doctors initially respiratory failure. Above advised it would keep him right, Trumbull runs the race. in the hospital for a week.

Medical complications occurred, however, and the day after the surgery, Gugliuzzo went into respiratory failure. He was placed into a medically induced coma for five weeks. He spent 107 days in the surgical intensive care unit — during which time his blood was oxidized with an ECMO machine and he battled multiple bouts with pneumonia. He was released from the hospital in August 2016.

Throughout the lengthy ordeal, Trumbull spent every Friday night at his friend’s bedside offering Gugliuzzo’s wife, Patti, and family members a much-needed reprieve as they were there 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

“Wayne supported us at a time when we needed it most,” Patti Gugliuzzo said. “Truly, if it weren’t for Wayne and our friends in Fort Salonga who rallied around us, I don’t know how we would’ve made it.”

It was during these nights Trumbull realized he had to do something significant for Gugliuzzo.

“At that point I didn’t know if it was going to be to honor his life or his battle — fortunately it ended up being his battle,” Trumbull said.

A casual runner who had previously only competed in Northport’s Great Cow Harbor 10K and other smaller races for charity, Trumbull began the process of fundraising for the American Lung Association. He learned that it was a sponsor for the New York City Marathon.

“The marathon was never something I had on my bucket list, but I knew it was significant and something that took a lot of effort and commitment, and would be a fight in and of itself,” he said. “This is just what I consider being a good friend.”

As the 2016 American Lung Association’s team filled its lim-

ited spots by the time Trumbull pursued entry, he applied for this year’s team as soon as they took applications. He was part of a strict training program beginning this past summer and ran five days a week for four months in preparation.

Gugliuzzo, who said his lungs are better now than they’ve been in 15 years, is in the process of rehabilitating himself.

He’s looking to Trumbull’s participation in the marathon as motivation to hop on the treadmill every once in awhile.

“If Wayne can do 26 miles, I can do two,” Gugliuzzo said.

“Me inspiring him in turn inspires me back. It’s heartwarming what he’s done for me.”

He said his hope one day is to run in the Great Cow Harbor 10K alongside Trumbull.

State officials unveil $40M plan for Nissequogue park

By SaRa-MegaN WalSH sara@tbrnewspapers.com New York State officials have revealed a $40 million proposal for the next phase of Nissequogue River State Park development.

The state Department of Environmental Conservation, in partnership with the state Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, held two public presentations Nov. 2 at the Kings Park Fire Department for Phase 3 of rehabilitation and restoration of Nissequogue River State Park, built on the former grounds of the Kings Park Psychiatric Center. Wayne Horsley, regional director for the state office of parks, said that with Phase 3 residents will start to see a substantial improvement in the park.

“This is a community effort; Nissequogue River State Park is worth the effort,” he said. “The park is going to come to life. This will be a positive thing for everybody concerned.”

At the center of the preliminary plan is the construction of a new 25,000 squarefoot headquarters for the DEC’s Division of Marine Resources in the existing footprint of Building 40, the former child care center, which would be demolished. The move would bring more than 100 DEC employees in the marine fisheries, marine habitat, shellfisheries and oceans program bureaus to Kings Park. It would also house the DEC’s Marine Enforcement unit and bring year-round law enforcement into the park.

“This is a much more ideal place for us,” said James Gilmore, director of the DEC’s Marine Resources Division. “Having a marine program next to the water makes so much more sense than where we are right now, in a medical park that’s six miles from the water.”

The $26 million building would also be equipped with the state’s only FDAcertified shellfish laboratory, for testing and maintaining the health and safety of harvested shellfish, in addition to a marine permit office. Construction of the new facility is expected to begin in the winter of 2018 with a targeted completion date of winter of 2020.

The DEC would also partner with the state parks’ office to design and construct a brand new marina. With a proposed $8 million budget, a new Nissequogue State Park Marina would be built to the south of the existing marina with a 151-boat capacity, new year-round floating docks, boat pump-out facility, comfort station including restrooms and improved parking area for boaters.

“The advantages I think are pretty clear,” said Craig Green, with the consulting firm D&B Engineers and Architects that has been hired to oversee engineering and design of Phase 3. “It would provide new facilities. It has capacity for existing boats plus DEC’s boats, greater security, better lighting and better access to the boats.”

The parks’ existing north and south marinas would be largely demolished and restoration efforts would be made to return them to wetlands. The existing boat ramp may be retrofitted to be used as a launch for nonmotorized boats, kayaks and paddle

boards, according to Horsley. Construction of the new marina would be tentatively slated to begin in 2019.

The proposed Phase 3 sets aside $1.5 million to bring new water mains and fire hydrants to the park. The announcement was answered with loud applause by approximately 85 attendees at the Nov. 2 meeting.

“If we ever had a fire, [the firefighters] would have adequate water supply to put out the fire,” Horsley said. “It will bring potable water to the DEC building, the administrative building and the park.”

The parks regional director called it a “win-win” as he said new lines would b wa-

ter to the soccer fields frequently used by local teams.

Other improvements under the proposed Phase 3 include demolition of three fire-damaged buildings and several upgrades to the park’s administrative headquarters including a new roof, window restoration, new heating and cooling systems and improved handicapped access to the building in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Detailed conceptual renderings of the proposed DEC building can be found on the agency’s website at www.dec.ny.gov/ about/796.html.

Individuals who were unable to attend the two public meetings can comment on the plan until Nov. 30. Feedback may be submitted via email to FW.Marine@dec. ny.gov or via mail to: Stephanie Rekemeyer, NYSDEC, 205 Belle Mead Road, Suite 1, East Setauket, New York 11733.

Residents ecstatic, but concerned about Nissequogue plans

By Sara-Megan WalSh sara@tbrnewspapers.com Kings Park residents and community groups showed widespread support for a $40 million proposal for further development of Nissequogue River State Park but also voiced their reservations.

Tony Tanzi, president of Kings Park Chamber of Commerce, said the group’s members came together prior to the state Department of Environmental Conservation and Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation Nov. 2 joint presentation to discuss the plan’s potential impacts.

“Our entire board is fully on board with this,” Tanzi said to state officials at the presentation. “We are ecstatic that you are making this endeavor. We look forward to being your partner in this whole endeavor and anything we could do to help, we certainly will.”

John McQuaid, president of the Nissequogue River State Park Foundation, said the organization’s members have concerns about a new DEC building being constructed near the center of the park. There are still numerous empty buildings that need to be demolished without any time frame for doing so, he said, while the government is already looking to construct new structures. Yet, the group is in support of the plan, according to its president.

“The marina is a home run,” McQuaid said. “It’s a valuable improvement for the community.”

Other concerns were raised with regard to increased traffic that may be caused by moving the DEC’s headquarters to the area and whether it will fit into the overall vision for the park. Many pointed out the state still lacks a master plan to guide the future design and usage of the more than 500 acres.

“We are so excited about this project, but we know that you can work on this project along with working on a master plan at the same time,” Linda Henninger, president of Kings Park Civic Association, said. “We all know how important it is to have a master plan for the entirety of the park.”

Wayne Horsley, regional director for the state office of parks, admitted to “back stepping a little” on his previous agreement with residents to draw up a master plan, but claims his office doesn’t have the funds. A master plan recently commissioned by the state for Sunken Meadow State Park cost between $200,000 and $400,000.

“We will discuss it further, we are not adversarial on the issue,” the parks regional director said.

The Nissequogue River State Park Foundation countered by offering to pay up to half the cost of a master plan. The organization has

hundreds of thousands in the bank, according to McQuaid, which they are ready and willing to smartly invest in the park’s future.

Horsley expressed concerns that a master plan could take two to three years, and that what exists now is a unique opportunity to work jointly with the DEC, which is providing the majority of the $40 million in funding.

“My message to the community is let’s jump on this while we can, I think it’s a big step forward,” Horsley said. “When I have an opportunity to get $40 million into the park, it’s a good thing. I think we should take advantage of it.”

STaTe House tax bill criticized by NY lawmakers on both sides of aisle By alex PetroSki alex@tbrnewspapers.com Last week Republicans in the House of Representatives took a major step toward fulfilling a lynchpin campaign promise that is seemingly decades old.

The House Ways and Means committee released the framework of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Nov. 2, a major piece of legislation touted by President Donald Trump (R) as a cut to income taxes for “hardworking, middle-income Americans,” though it would negatively affect New Yorkers if signed into law, according to lawmakers from both sides of the political aisle.

The highlights of the bill, which would require passage by the House and Senate and the president’s signature before becoming law, include a consolidation from seven individual income tax brackets down to four; the elimination of the deduction for state and local income taxes, a provision that in the past through federal tax returns gave a portion of tax dollars back to individuals in higher income tax states like New York; and a reduction of the corporate tax rate from 35 to 20 percent.

“I am a ‘No’ to this bill in its current form,” 1st Congressional District U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) said in a statement. “We need to fix this state and local tax [SALT] deduction issue. Adding back in the property tax deduction up to $10,000 is progress, but not

enough progress. If I’m not fighting for New Yorkers, I can’t expect anyone else from another state to do it for me.”

U.S. Rep. for the 2nd District, Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove), was even more critical of the bill than Zeldin.

“The goal of tax reform is to help hardworking Americans make more money so they can live the American Dream,” Suozzi said in a statement. “The American people expect us to find a bipartisan solution to tax reform that helps create good paying middle-class jobs. This plan doesn’t achieve that goal. I won’t support it.”

Other New York lawmakers from the Democratic Party voiced harsh opposition to the bill in its current form.

New York’s U.S. senators Kirsten Gillibrand (D-New York) and Chuck Schumer (DNew York) each said via Twitter they viewed the bill as a tax break for corporations that would have a negative impact on middleclass citizens. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) called the bill a “tax increase plan.”

“The tax reform plan, they call a tax cut plan,” Cuomo said in a statement. “It has a diabolical dimension, which is the elimination of the deductibility of state and local taxes … what makes it an even more gross injustice is, the state of New York contributes more to the federal government than any other state. New York contributes more to Washington than any other state. We’re the No. 1 donor state. We give $48 billion

the tax Cuts and Jobs act would reduce the number of income tax brackets from seven to four; eliminate deductions for state and local income taxes; and would reduce the corporate tax rate from 35 to 20 percent. more than we get back. Why you would want to take more from New York is a gross, gross injustice.”

Duncan MacKenzie, chief executive officer of the New York State Association of Realtors said in a statement the bill would harm many New York homeowners.

“It will lessen the value of the property tax deduction and it cuts a host of other key housing-related tax incentives,” he said.

The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization founded in the 1980s and dedicated to educating the public on issues with signifi-

cant fiscal policy impact, estimated the bill would result in a $1.5 trillion increase to the national deficit.

Mark Snyder of Mark J. Snyder Financial Services, a Hauppauge-based personal financial planning and management firm, called the bill a “torpedo aimed at the wallets of Long Islanders” in an email. He also pointed to the elimination of the SALT deduction as clear evidence the bill would harm New Yorkers.

“As a representative from New York, I’d kick this bill to the curb,” he said when asked what he would do if he were tasked with voting on the bill.

Ambassadors for a day At its Oct. 26 business meeting, the Northport-East Northport school district’s board of education recognized students from Norwood Avenue Elementary School who attended the WE Day U.N. leadership conference in New York City in late September.

Fourteen current Norwood students, as well as four Northport Middle School students were

chosen to attend based on their involvement in the school’s O Ambassador club, an organization dedicated to understanding various social issues and making a difference in the world.

The students who attended, pictured above, were Molly Ahearne, Benjamin Bunch, Mairead Carroll, Lillian Clements, Patrick Clements, Sedona Conforti, Christian Darrigo,

East Northport Middle School

Brendan Fenlon, Haiden Forster, Masen Forster, Wyatt Fredericks, Harrison Kuhn, Glenn May, Spencer Murphy, Ava Olsen, Liam Prasad, Jack Sandin and Finn Tyrer.

The WE Day U.N. leadership conference is an inspirational event geared at empowering the youth of the world to focus on social issues and harness the power of community. At this year’s conference, stu-

dents heard from powerful leaders such as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau; actress Whoopi Goldberg; Chelsea Clinton, vice chair of the Clinton Foundation; and Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, president of the Republic of Liberia.

More than 6,000 students from across the tristate area attended the conference.

“It was an honor for Norwood

students to attend the leadership conference,” said Principal Michael Genovese. “Time and time again our students have demonstrated that they understand social issues and are committed to making a difference. The real results our students see through their efforts reinforce their belief that a better world is within reach and that they are the key to creating change.”

East Northport Middle School was informed that sixth-grader Luke Tuthill, pictured at right, was accepted into the Institute of Creative Problem Solving for Gifted and Talented Students.

Luke is one of approximately 90 students out of 600 nominees who qualified for this honor across Long Island. As a student of the institute, Luke will spend 50 hours during the next 20 Saturday mornings studying an extensive mathematics curriculum.

“I started at the beginning of the school year, and I really like it,” Tuthill said.

Falling in love with reading Thomas J. Lahey Elementary School in the Harborfields school district held its annual Read-In Oct. 26.

For this event, parents and loved ones volunteered their afternoon to

read to students. Many brought blankets for the children to sit on so they could station themselves throughout the school. Superintendent Francesco Ianni also read to students.

Halloween dreams

On Oct. 31, James H. Boyd Intermediate School in the Elwood school district held its annual Halloween parade, a yearly tradition for the school’s students.

This year’s event was especially exciting, however, as Magic Wheelchair, a nonprofit organization that builds unique Halloween costumes for children in wheelchairs, selected fifth-grader Cooper Knorr to make his dream costume become a reality — a DeLorean from the classic film “Back to the Future.”

As pictured above and top right, Cooper led the parade in his sweet ride. The band and his fellow classmates, clad in their unique and creative costumes, followed behind. After the parade’s conclusion, many students came up to Cooper and complimented his DeLorean.

Also in attendance was Mr. Met, who came in honor of Boyd teacher Joseph Pace, pictured bottom right.

Huntington’s Gerbavsits, Giamo qualify for state final Tyler Gerbavsits and Matt Giamo dropped every shot they needed to make it a pressurefilled round as the Huntington teammates qualified for the state golf championship at Cornell University.

The state final three-day event is scheduled for June 2 to 4 at Robert Trent Jones Golf Course at Cornell University in Ithaca.

The Huntington links stars both shot 77 on the first day of the two-round county competition and state qualifier Nov. 2 at Manorville’s Rock Hill Golf & Country Club to move into a good position for making a run at All-County honors, but they were still outside the Top 9 positions that qualify for the state championships. The duo was in a tie for 12th place en-

tering the final day of the Suffolk tournament.

“Nine is the magic number for Suffolk county golfers, as it reserves a spot for them on the coveted Section XI state team,” Huntington varsity golf coach Michael Marinello said. “[Tyler Gerbavsits and Matt Giamo] knew what they had to do, but to execute this task under extreme pressure is easier said than done. This is what separated Tyler and Matt from a very talented field. The pressure was put upon these kids and with golf being such a fragile game, anything can happen.”

The Blue Devil seniors have been mainstays of the Huntington golf program. The duo was looking to make their final round in high school play on a Suffolk course something special, and they did.

Gerbavsits jumped off to a quick start Nov. 3, hitting the par-5 second hole in two shots and making a birdie. On the par-3 fourth hole, he launched a shot deep into the woods. His shot out of the woods bounced over the green and left a 60-foot putt up and over a ridge and then sloping back to the hole.

“I can’t imagine going out any better, especially with my best friend and teammate,” Gerbavsits said. “The pin placements were really tough out there. It took a lot of focus to keep myself at even par.”

Marinello said he was hoping Gerbavsits would two putt, but said three putt was more likely.

“I watched the putt hit the hill and move to the hole, hit the pin and drop in,” Marinello said. “That was the shot of the championship. Tyler was on cruise control after that.

He played a beautiful game and was in total control, parring all but one hole on the back nine to finish with an even par 71 and safely claiming his spot on the state team.”

Giamo’s route to Cornell was entirely different. A pair of double bogies over the first nine holes put the athlete’s hopes of qualifying for the state tournament in real jeopardy. A 6-over-par 41 on the front nine looked ominous to all the scoreboard watchers.

“The kid never hung his head,” Marinello said. “He told me, ‘Coach, I’m going low on the back nine,’ and low he went.”

Giamo went on to shoot an even par 36 over the final nine holes.

The pressure increased a few notches when the Huntington senior was forced into a three-way playoff for the final two spots on the Section XI state team.

After a drive into the left rough, which narrowly avoided the bunkers, Giamo hit a laser 7-iron shot to the pin. Left with a 4-footer for par to earn his ticket to the state championships, he struck a putt that hit the bottom of the cup and “ended the matter,” Marinello said.

“Walking back with Tyler and Matt after his playoff victory was one the most satisfying moments I have ever had in coaching,” the head coach said. “Watching two determined competitors; two great friends, both of whom I’ve known since seventh grade walk off so happy; well it was a storybook ending.”

New York finals. This will mark Giamo’s first appearance in the state championship.

“It’s just great that Tyler and I both got to qualify,” Giamo said.

Marinello is proud of what his athletes have been able to accomplish during their Blue Devils tenures.

“They were aware that everything they had worked extremely hard for could disappear in one bad swing,” Marinello said. “This was a remarkable performance by both Tyler and Matt. I hope everyone knows what an amazing accomplishment this is.”

Huntington’s Tricia Arceri wins Suffolk diving title Tricia Arceri has been accomplishing each of her goals, one by one. The Huntington senior knocked off another one when she won the Suffolk diving championship Nov. 3 at Hauppauge, plunging past the talented field.

There’s still one elusive goal on the horizon for the standout — a state title.

The Blue Devils great is headed to the state championship at Ithaca College Nov. 17. It will mark Arceri’s third trip to the state finals, where she hopes to reach the top step of the victory platform once and for all.

Huntington senior Sigrid Cassell also qualified for the state final after meeting the standard time in the 50-yard freestyle Nov. 4 at Suffolk County Community College’s Brentwood campus. Her brother, Gunther, won three state titles for the Blue Devils boys team and is currently swimming at Penn State University.

Huntington head coach Chris Helmke and assistant coach Meg McConnell, who coaches Huntington’s divers, were ecstatic with the performances turned in by Arceri and Cassell.

The Blue Devils stars also basked in the glow of their accomplishments at they prepare for the state competition.

“I feel like I had a great meet,” Arceri said.

“I did two new hard dives that made me nervous, but I executed them pretty well. I will be working extra hard on those for the state meet. Overall, I am very happy to win the counties for the second time as a senior. My only focus now is on the state championships.”

Arceri overcame an ear injury this year, regaining her form in time for the league and county championships.

“Being out for two weeks during the season meant she missed the invitational diving meet, the only other chance to qualify for states in our section,” McConnell said. “Trish kept her focus and consistently performed solid dives, and determination paid off. Now she can focus on fine tuning her dives and hopefully achieve her state-title goal.”

To be a champion diver requires polishing your skills to near perfection. The slightest miscue can cost a diver precious points and allow opponents to gain an edge. But Arceri was on the mark in her final Section XI meet.

“It was a great night and most everybody dove really well,” McConnell said. “It was a nice way for most of the girls to wrap up their season. Trish dove very well, starting with a

great back dive that scored 9s across the panel.

That put her in a solid first place and that’s where she stayed for the rest of the meet.”

Arceri could make history in two weeks.

Huntington has never had a state diving champion. But the senior knows high-level competition like no other — her sister Molly won three county diving titles and her brother John was a four-time county wrestling champ.

But the competition will be grueling, and once again Arceri will need to come close to perfection when she goes up against New York’s best.

“Winning states would top off my year as a senior,” she said.

Sigrid Cassell reaches state finals

Sigrid Cassell has been chasing the state qualifying time all season, and Saturday, she was determined to nail it down. The Huntington swimming star touched the wall twohundredths of a second under the time she needed to reach the Ithaca College pool Nov. 18.

“Sigrid started her day off by swimming the last 50-yard leg of the 200 medley relay and she swims two-hundredths of a second faster than the state time, but it doesn’t count because she’s in a relay,” Helmke said. “So we know she’s tuned up and ready to rock when her 50 free heat starts. She takes off and her turn is perfect and winds up doing the same time from the relay.”

Cassell’s time of 24.82 seconds beat the state finals cut time of 24.84.

“I am beyond ecstatic,” she said. “I’ve worked really hard for this.”

The senior has been swimming with the Huntington varsity team since seventh grade.

“I feel that I’ve put in a lot of hard work and commitment into my Blue Devils career and it’s paid off nicely,” Cassell said. “My goal [at the state meet] is to make memories and do the best I can and have fun doing it.”

Letters to the editor

Trump tax cut a raw deal for the middle class

Photo by Dennis Whittam

A motorist died at St. Charles Hospital after being rescued from a submerged car in Port Jefferson Harbor Oct. 30.

It’s time for real action at PJ marina boat ramp A problem with quite a few seemingly simple and inexpensive solutions exists in Port Jefferson, and rather than working together to solve it, various levels of government are kicking the can down the road, pointing fingers and letting people die.

The boat launch at the Brookhaven Town-owned Port Jefferson Marina, which sits in the heart of Port Jefferson Village beyond the intersection of a New York State and PJ Village road is a public health problem. Drivers heading north on Barnum Avenue are crossing over Route 25A, entering the marina lot and winding up on the boat ramp either intentionally or without realizing it — the distinction is irrelevant. This year alone, two men in their 60s drove into the water via the ramp, and in each case frantic rescue efforts ensued to pull the victims from their sinking vehicles. In April, good Samaritans on the scene succeeded. When it happened again last week, first responders couldn’t save the driver in time.

While we understand a New York State Supreme Court judge ruled in 2011 that a 2005 incident in which a driver also died after plunging into the water via the boat ramp was not the fault of the town or village — the codefendants in the lawsuit by the executrix of the driver’s estate — that doesn’t mean complete inaction is acceptable.

To be clear, we’re not blaming the town or village for the death of William Whalen Oct. 30. But the town’s idea that several “Do Not Enter” signs are enough and should completely absolve them of any culpability is extremely disheartening. Village Mayor Margot Garant has been vocal about the problem, at least since the April incident, and has been in touch with the State Department of Transportation, but the village’s “not our property” excuse is also disheartening. State Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) has been in power for decades and thus was around when Richard Levin died crossing the state road and submerging his vehicle in 2005. In response to last week’s occurrence, LaValle met with leadership of the DOT to discuss what his spokesperson called a “horrible incident” in an email.

Wasn’t the 2005 incident horrible enough to warrant action? Garant has said the state has agreed to turn the traffic signals into strictly left and right arrows so motorists know they can’t go straight at the intersection.

It is inexcusable that even with virtually every possible municipality having some sort of stake in improving safety at a clearly troublesome intersection the best solution that can be reached 12 years after a death resulting in a lawsuit is right and left arrows and Do Not Enter signs.

We have a few suggestions. Put your collective dollars together and invest in a retractable or closable gate. Install strips to puncture driver’s tires should they head down the ramp. Put a permanent barrier in the middle of the wide-open ramp entrance that leaves a single vessel width on either side. Purchase a sign with a clear warning that if a driver proceeds across 25A they might end up in the water. Blinking lights could even be added to the sign for perfect visibility at night, when most of these incidents seem to occur.

We don’t care any longer whose responsibility the ramp technically falls under. Do something now or prepare to share culpability when, not if, this happens again.

What happened to the deficit hawks? Were they magically transformed into chickens at the sight of a multitrillion dollar tax cut for big business and the very rich? It sure looks that way with the Trump tax cut.

The Trump tax cut blows a $1.5-trillion hole in the budget, yet not a peep is heard from Paul Ryan and his merry band of deficit foes. For years every dollar spent to improve the lives of the American public was met with howls of agony about the deficit.

Dark threats were issued against Social Security and Medicare.

Looks like now we can forget about fixing our infrastructure.

This is not your Reagan tax cut benefiting the middle class.

This is a massive shift of the tax burden onto the middle class. It’s a multitrillion dollar giveaway to corporations and the wealthy funded by eliminating middle class tax breaks.

First up is the elimination of the state and local tax deduction and capping the property tax deduction at $10,000. For many taxpayers on Long Island the much ballyhooed increase in the standard deduction will be swamped by this. Next, the personal exemption, currently $4,050 per household member, has been eliminated entirely.

Do you have significant medical expenses? Tough luck, it’s no longer deductible. Moving expenses?

Tough. Student loans? No deduction. Alimony? Forget about it.

Ah, yes, but there’s a new $300 tax credit for dependents over 17 such as an aged parent.

But Houdini-like, it disappears after 5 years. Strangely enough the gigantic tax cuts for big business and the very rich stick

Image by Mike Sheinkopf

around permanently.

Remember Trump’s promise to eliminate the carried interest tax loophole, which benefits billionaire hedge fund and private equity managers? Nowhere to be found.

But lest the very wealthy feel forgotten, the estate tax exemption, which currently affects only the few thousand families who are in the top 0.2 percent, is doubled immediately and the tax is eliminated entirely after 6 years. This alone will cost the government $269 billion over 10 years. But it’s sure good news for Donald Jr., Eric and Ivanka.

This massive shift of the tax burden onto the middle class is justified by claiming big business will use its newfound wealth to increase wages and salaries.

Last time I checked, Wall Street celebrates every time wages are

reduced or workers laid off. It celebrates even more when a corporation announces a dividend increase or a stock buyback. That’s where the money will go. It’s easier to believe in the tooth fairy than to believe big business is going to shower its middle class workers with pay increases because of tax cut induced generosity.

If the Trump tax cut passes, no doubt in two or three years Congress, like some latter-day Rip Van Winkle, will wake up one day and ask: Where did these shocking deficits come from? And you can bet that they will zero in on a simple solution: Cut back or eliminate entirely those very expensive middle class “entitlements,” like Social Security and Medicare.

David Friedman St. James

You don’t need a costume to be nice My account of this experience was prompted by Daniel Dunaief’s column “Wouldn’t-it-be-nice costume ideas for Halloween,” Oct. 26, 2017.

While on the checkout line at our local supermarket Oct. 28, I commented on the vibrancy and freshness of the beautiful flowers in the cart in front of me. The purchaser agreed, and we exchanged a few words before checking out.

I went to the parking lot to put away my purchases when I was

approached by the person I had encountered in the store. She was carrying one of the containers of flowers. She said, “ I want you to have these.”

I was surprised and bewildered. I encouraged her to keep them, but she insisted she wanted me to have them. She asked my name. I told her it was Barbara.

She said she was on her way to visit her mother and her mother’s name was also Barbara. I thanked her and she went on her way.

This act of random kindness united me with this stranger.

My mood was elated. I smiled all of the way home. I carefully watered the plant and placed it in the hall to greet others. This kind gesture came from the heart and heightened my appreciation of my community and the people within.

Every day presents an opportunity to be nice and you don’t even need a costume.

opinion Seeking help from the Force in our daily lives

Y

our phone is across the room.

You want it to come to you and you put out your hand. Nothing happens. You scrunch your face and flex the muscles in your outstretched fingers, but, still, nothing happens.

Someday the iPhone C (for 100) or iPhone M (1,000) may fly through the air when you reach for it (avoiding people’s heads along the way).

And, someday, we may figure out how to use

By Daniel Dunaief the energy field described in such detail in the Star Wars franchise.

Skywalker and his rebel friends back, yet again, to battle with evil.

At the heart of the franchise is the Force, which would be a convenient skill to have when we can’t find the remote control or our phones.

So, what is this Force and do we only acknowledge it in the movies?

Thousands of years ago, long before Darth Vader, when primitive people struggled through a drought and needed rain, they prayed, they did rain dances or they carved images of rain in the walls so that future archeologists and artists could analyze and appreciate them years later.

I’m not minimizing or trivializing religion or a belief in any deity. I am suggesting, however, that the Force and the battle between good and evil and the free-flowing energy that is a part of this mythology come into play in our daily lives.

As we prepare to walk out the door, our shoelace snaps. We don’t have time to take the lace out of the

shoe and put another one in. We’re also not completely sure if we have other laces handy.

We demand to know “Why now?” from the lace. We might even get annoyed and say, “No, no, no, come on! I can’t be late.”

To whom are we talking? Are we personifying the shoelaces so we can complain? By expressing our frustration to the shoelace, perhaps we are externalizing our anger.

But, maybe the dark side is challenging us in a moment of weakness, encouraging us to get angry, to take off our shoes, open the door and throw them deep into woods?

We get into our car and turn the key. It doesn’t start. We hold our breath. “Please, please, please, you can do it,” we beg and try again.

From whom are we asking for help?

Are we seeking assistance from a deity who might be nearby or everywhere?

Are we speaking to the inanimate engine, hoping that Bessie, like Herbie

the Love Bug, will come to life, rev her engine and shift back and forth from one tire to the other in a happy car dance? Maybe we promise Bessie a refreshing oil change if we can just get to work today.

Or are we talking to a Force that makes things go our way, the way we hope a Force encourages our loved ones to answer the phone while we’re waiting for them or our favorite team to succeed in the moment?

We may hope many of the objects we talk to, apart from our electronic friends Siri and Alexa, will respond to our needs, the way earlier people hoped that their efforts affected the weather.

Movies may come and go from the big screen, but we live through our own nonintergalactic battles, escaping from the shadows of our fathers, perhaps, or finding our own destinies. As we do, we may turn to some version of the Force, or something like it, for help in a pinch.

Hey, pay attention! Why are we planning to cut taxes?

D

o we need tax cuts?

Lots of people agree that our current tax rules are outdated, cumbersome and unfair. On the other hand, there will never be total unanimity on how the tax code should read because one person’s tax cut is another’s tax increase, and for sure no one wants to lose whatever benefits they already have.

So the prospect of changes is only palatable as a campaign promise if there would be an overall greater that

But hold on. The circumstances have changed. Our economy is no longer sluggish. In fact, it seems to

have taken off. And, unusually, the economies around the globe appear to have also done so, almost in unison. This rare good news bodes well for the United States and others around the world.

So, back to my original question: Why do we need a tax cut?

If the answer is, for political reasons, that stinks. Just because politicians promised to cut taxes, a regular pledge to get votes, is not good enough to shake the ground on which we live. If the answer is to reallocate wealth, that has never been the role of our capitalist democracy.

If the answer is to make more equal the lives of the haves and the havenots going forward, then simply raise the taxes on the haves in proportion to how much they have benefited from our same capitalist society. And finally, if the answer is to raise revenue in order to reduce our unprecedented national debt, then raise taxes across the board proportionately on everyone who enjoys the services provided by life in these United States.

Sometimes one can get too close to a problem and not see the bigger

picture. There is a saying that goes: Are we doing things right—or are we doing the right things? To check on whether we are doing things right, we have to engage in the details, the nitty-gritty of the process.

In the case of tax reform, we have to hammer out every line to the greater satisfaction of all concerned. But to decide if we are on the right track, that is, if we are doing the right things, we have to stand back and examine the whole picture. Has the situation changed, perhaps rectified itself, or do we still have to help matters along?

I suggest the latter and I’ll explain why.

Businesses, which will reap three-quarters of the tax proposals over the next 10 years as currently presented, are already, for the most part, doing just fine. That is why the stock market keeps hitting new highs. The prices of the stocks are earnings driven, and the companies we can publicly track via the markets are showing record profits. Why do they need more stimulus? To expand and create more jobs, which is a political mantra? More likely

companies will reinvest the additional profits in job-saving equipment, which is the way trends are already leaning. If the government wants to create more jobs, it should help create more businesses, which it could do by offering tax breaks to start-up companies. But that doesn’t require broad tax overhaul. That would just take one change. Mr. President, pick up the pen. Furthermore, to encourage companies to add more workers, offer incentives specifically pegged toward those additional salaries, not tax breaks that can simply result in higher profits in the misguided hope of higher tax revenues.

The initial tax proposals include eliminating deductions for large medical expenses; student loan interest; alimony; tax preparation costs; moving to a new job expenses; casualty, disaster and theft losses; and qualified adoption fees, according to CNBC. Are those the changes we want for our society?

What ultimate goal can we all get behind, and do we get there with tax cuts?
