Trotta targets red light cameras

A county report says Indian Head Road and Jericho Turnpike in Commack saw crashes increase since a red light camera was installed in 2014.

When it comes to Suffolk County’s red light camera program, Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) said he’s seen enough.

Trotta took to the intersection of Indian Head Road and Jericho Turnpike in Commack on Monday to call on the county to pull the emergency brake on its red light camera initiative and reevaluate, citing an increase in traffic crashes with injuries at that location.

The legislator picked the Indian Head Road red light camera location because the county’s 2014 Red Light Safety Program report showed crashes with injuries had gone up more than 100 percent there, making it a prime spot to

prove Trotta’s point. The annual report said the yearly average of reported crashes with injury went from 8.7 before the camera’s installation to 19.3 after. The camera at that intersection was installed in January 2014, giving the 2014 report 11 months of traffic data to work with while comparing it to traffic patterns recorded over three years between 2007 and 2009.

Back in October, Trotta joined with other Republican lawmakers from Suffolk County to solicit input from the public about the red light camera program. At the time, he said residents alerted him about an increase in rear end crashes since people were stopping abruptly at yellow lights to avoid being ticketed. The

2014 annual report on the red light program proved that notion.

According to the report, rear end crashes increased by 42 percent since the cameras were installed.

“Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone has turned the residents of Smithtown into crash test dummies,” Trotta said on Monday. “This is just another example of [the Bellone administration’s] attempt to raise revenues through ‘taxation by citation.’”

However, the county’s Red Light Safety Program was enacted in 2009 — years before Bellone assumed the county executive position in 2012.

The annual report said the county collected $27.5 million ReD LIgHTS continued on page a12

Cops find body of missing man off North Shore harbor

By Phil Corso

Police have identified the body found near a beach off Setauket Harbor on Monday morning, linking him back to an emergency crash-landing that happened nearby in February, Suffolk County cops said.

Gerson Salmon-Negron, 23, was last seen shortly after 11 p.m. on Feb. 20 when the Piper Archer four-seated airplane he was in went down in the waters of Setauket Harbor with three others on board. His body was finally found on Monday morning after a 911 call told dispatchers about a body spotted on the beach near Brewster Lane in Setauket around 9:10 a.m., the Suffolk County Police Department said.

The three other men, student pilot Austricio Ramirez, 25, Nelson Gomez, 36, and Wady Perez, 25, were rescued by nearby neighbors and officers soon after the crash.

The small plane had taken off from Fitchburg, Mass., en route to Republic Airport in Farmingale, but went down near the vicinity of 108 Van Brunt Manor Road in Poquott. The incident spurred residents living on the Strongs Neck side of the water to jump into action as soon as they noticed emergency vehicles making their way into the small North Shore community.

As the incident unfolded, residents living along the shoreline started offering up their personal kayaks for rescuers to use to

lift the survivors out to safety.

“Where this occurred, there are only a few homes, but instantly the neighbors pulled together,” resident Margo Arceri said in a previous interview after the crash occurred. “They say, ‘it takes a village,’ and these neighbors showed a real sense of community. We all pulled together immediately. I just wish it had a happier ending.”

In a report released in March, the National Transportation Safety Board said that the aircraft reported low amounts of fuel and had been operated for about five hours since its tank was last filled. The report said the plane’s engine “sputtered”

as it approached the Port Jefferson area, spurring the flight instructor to turn on the electric fuel pump and instructing his student pilot to switch the fuel selector to the plane’s left fuel tank as it flew at around 2,000 feet. The sputtering stopped, but started up again about three minutes later, the NTSB said, and then lost power.

That was when the pilot instructor took control of the plane and tried heading to the shoreline, where he believed the plane could safely land, the NTSB report said.

But the pilot was unable to see the shoreline due to the darkness and could only guess where the shoreline began by the

lights inside of nearby houses, the report said.

He held the plane off of the water for as long as he could before touching down and instructing everyone to grab a life vest and exit the plane, the NTSB said.

Neither the student pilot nor the passengers, however, were wearing life vests when they exited the plane, the report said.

Emergency personnel were on the scene within minutes and rescued three of the four men.

The airplane floated in the water for about five minutes before sinking nose-first to the bottom of the harbor, the NTSB said.

New York preps for important presidential primary Voters to pick their nominees on Tuesday, April 19

Above, file photo; right, photos by Giselle Barkley

BY Giselle BarkleY

The 2016 U.S. presidential candidates from both sides of the aisle made their way to New York to continue rallying support this week.

And by next Tuesday, New Yorkers can make a difference when they vote for their nominee in the closed primary.

Suffolk County Republican Chair John Jay LaValle said this is the first primary in three decades where New York State’s vote is this relevant.

“By the time the vote gets to New York, it’s usually over and it’s a functional exercise when the candidates run,” LaValle said.

When asked how running in New York

differed from campaigning in other states, LaValle said, “New Yorkers like to hear it straight.” The Republican chair added that voters in this state are very engaged, intelligent and are more skeptical when it comes to casting a vote.

But Lillian Clayman, chair of Brookhaven’s Democratic Committee said “unless there’s this huge ideological chasm with the candidates,” running in New York isn’t much different than in other states.

The presidential primaries allow voters to help determine the presidential nominees for their respective parties. Of the nominees, GOP frontrunner Donald Trump is doing well on Long Island, LaValle said. He added that people are getting tired of hearing the typical political rhetoric they hear from the other 2016 presidential candidates.

Although Clayman said she doesn’t know what’s to come for next week’s primaries, she said Democratic nominees, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-Vermont) have energized residents, even those who usually don’t vote during the primaries.

Registered voters can choose their nominees on Tuesday, April 19.

For more information on deadlines and where residents can vote, visit elections.ny.gov.

John Hayes, Coram

Grace Marie Damico, St. James

Q: Will you vote in the primary?

A: Yes Q: Why? A: Because it’s too dangerous not to vote. It’s a very important election. I believe Donald Trump is a very dangerous man. I believe that every vote counts against him. If you don’t vote, it’s a vote for Donald Trump.

Q: Will you vote in the primary?

A: Yes. Q: Why? A: Because I think that the country is in dire straits right now, and the more people that get out and vote for who they prefer, the better the country will be. Hopefully we can bring this country back.

Charles Spinnato, Port Jefferson

James Turrill, Mastic

Q: Will you vote in the primary?

A: Yes. I want to choose who I want to vote for [and] who I want to be the nominee for the Republican Party. So I would vote in the primaries to make that choice. [It’s a] very interesting election this year.

Q: Will you vote in the primary?

A: I’ve never voted in the primaries before but I want to.

Q: Why? A: I’m fed up with politicians.

Look what [U.S. President Barack] Obama has done to this country. He’s destroyed it. I want somebody not like him.

Times Beacon Record Newspapers’ six community papers received seven awards in the 2015 New York Press Association’s Better Newspaper Contest this past weekend.

Sports editor and village Beacon Record editor, desirée Keegan, won sports writer of the year for her coverage of athletics from all over the North Shore.

A judge said, “I was impressed by desirée Keegan’s versatility as a sports writer and her ability to draw the reader into her stories with creative, inviting and yet simple leads. Once you started reading, you wanted to know more about the subjects of her stories.”

Elana Glowatz, who is editor of The Port Times Record, won second and third place for best feature story in her division for two stories judges described as “well told, with perfect quotes” and “very interesting ... with much human interest.”

Giselle Barkley, reporter for all six Times Beacon Record papers, received honorable mention for rookie reporter of the year under The village Times Herald flag. The judges said they were impressed with her versatility in subjects she covered.

ald. “Giving a local camera club a couple pages for some terrific photos gives back to readers,” judges said of Sutton’s work.

For sports action photos, freelance photographer Bill Landon earned second and third place in his division under The Times of Smithtown newspaper.

“Great tight action,” judges said. “The framing makes it a very interesting shot.”

Holocaust survivors to speak at SCCC this month

141043

On April 20, four survivors will speak about life before and after the Holocaust and how the Holocaust shaped their lives and their vision. As the Holocaust becomes more distant, now 71 years since liberation, we will have fewer opportunities to hear the insights of those who lived through that time.

Survivors Annie Bleiberg, Mordechai Miller, Hannah Robinson and Ruth Minsky Sender, will speak this year during the program, which starts at 11 a.m. at Suffolk County Community College. The program will not only be heard live in Shea Theater on the Ammerman Campus, but also broadcast on the internet for residents who gather at Commack, Half Hollow Hills, Brentwood, Center Moriches and Smithtown school districts; at the Eastern and Grant Campuses of the college; and at the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County.

Bleiberg, of Woodbury, was born in Poland and then forced to live in the Lu-

baczow Ghetto, the Krakow Ghetto, the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp, and the Mohrisch Weisswasser work camp in Czechoslovakia.

Miller, now of East Northport, was hidden with his family by a Polish family and later had to hide in the woods, where they all survived.

Robinson, now of Sound Beach, was born in Germany and, at nine years old, her parents sent her and her brother to England on the Kindertransport.

Sender, now of East Setauket, was born in Poland and then forced to live in the Lodz Ghetto, the AuschwitzBirkenau death camp, the Mittelsteine and Grafenort work camps, and a displaced persons camp in Germany.

The program will be held on Wednesday, April 20, in Shea Theater on the Ammerman campus in Selden, from 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.

Boals named Stony Brook men’s basketball coach Jeff Boals, who spent the last seven seasons as an assistant coach at Ohio State University, has been named the head men’s basketball coach at Stony Brook University. “[I am] extremely excited to become a part of the Stony Brook community and university,” Boals said. “[I am] grateful for the opportunity that Dr. Stanley and Shawn Heilbron have given me and I look forward to working with the team, building upon the success of last season and continuing it into the future. I can’t wait to get started.”

That success last season was Stony Brook’s first Division I NCAA men’s basketball championship appearance, after an 8074 victory over the University of Vermont in the America East championship. With the win, the Seawolves earned their 26th singleseason victory — a new Division I program record for the Seawolves. The No. 13 Stony Brook team played No. 4 University of Kentucky in the NCAA tournament’s opening Round of 64 but fell 85-57.

Boals was officially introduced Monday as the 11th head coach in the program’s history to the Stony Brook community at a press conference at SBU’s Island Federal Credit Union Arena.

“Jeff Boals will be a great addition to the Stony Brook community,” the Boston Celtics’ player Evan Turner said. “His commitment, passion and knowledge of the game is second to none. I’m excited to see the rise of the Stony Brook basketball program.”

A member of Thad Matta’s staff since 2009, Boals helped guide Ohio State to seven postseason appearances, including six NCAA Tournaments. The Buckeyes, who

won or claimed a share of three Big 10 titles, advanced to the Final Four in 2012. Ohio went 193-62 during Boals’ time in Columbus.

“Jeff has done a remarkable job at The Ohio State University in his seven years as a Buckeye — he is certainly ready to be a head coach and has an amazing opportunity at such a fine institution,” Matta said. “Jeff has a great basketball mind and will bring energy and enthusiasm to the great situation that Stony Brook University offers.”

Boals was instrumental in bringing some of the top players in the nation to Ohio State, including current NBA stars Jared Sullinger of the Boston Celtics and D’Angelo Russell of the Los Angeles Lakers, along with Aaron Craft, the all-time steals and assist leader in Ohio State history. He also coached Turner, the 2010 National Player of the Year, during his collegiate career with the Buckeyes.

“My focus during this search was to find the right person who could lead Stony Brook men’s basketball to new heights, and Jeff Boals is the right guy at the right time,” Heilbron said. “He is prepared for this opportunity, which comes at a critical time in our history following our first America East title and NCAA tournament appearance.”

Prior to Ohio State, Boals spent three seasons at the University of Akron, Ohio, as the team’s recruiting coordinator while working with players. The Zips advanced to three Mid-American Conference championship games, winning the title in 2009. It was Akron’s first NCAA tournament berth since 1986.

“The first thing about Jeff is that he’s won

everywhere he’s been,” said Keith Dambrot, Akron’s men’s basketball coach. “I like to think of Jeff as a diversified coach. He’s a terrific recruiter, understands in-game strategy and is relentless.”

“Jeff has coached at the highest level as a member of Thad Matta’s staff at Ohio State and he understands what it takes to win,” Heilbron said. “I am excited for our players to learn from him on the floor and, more importantly, he will serve as a strong mentor to our student-athletes in all areas of their lives outside of basketball.”

Boals spent two seasons (2004-06) at Robert Morris University in Pennsylvania and four years (1999-2003) at Marshall University in West Virginia. In his final season at Robert Morris, the Colonials posted their first winning record in 15 seasons. He spent

a total of four seasons at Division II University of Charleston, also in West Virginia, in two different stints.

A 1995 graduate of Ohio University, Boals was a two-time captain and four-year letter winner for the Bobcats, who advanced to the NCAA tournament in 1994. The following year, Ohio University won the Preseason NIT championship after wins over Ohio State and Virginia, as well as George Washington and New Mexico State.

“Knowing that he is pursuing his dreams to be a head coach is big time,” the Lakers’ Russell said. “He has always been super supportive and a major mentor to me and my family throughout my process. P.S. [I] just became a Stony Brook fan.”

Zeldin stumps in Stony Brook for veteran health bill

Photo by Phil Corso

U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin, standing, visits with James and Noreen Saladino after the couple shared how adult day health care has helped them face service-related health issues.

By PhiL CoRSo which scheduled a hearing on his bill for

The fight to expand veterans health services made a pit stop in Stony Brook before hitting Washington, D.C. U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) took to the Long Island State Veterans Home last Thursday and stood before a room filled with veterans standing to benefit from a piece of legislation he said would expand disabled veterans’ access to adult day health care. He garnered widespread support from the local level before taking the fight to the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs,

April 20.

“It must always be a top priority of Congress to ensure that all veterans receive the proper treatment and care they deserve after fighting for our country,” Zeldin said.

“My bill, which has strong bipartisan support in Congress, with over 45 co-sponsors including the entire Long Island Congressional Delegation, is just one more way that we can expand care for veterans.”

H.R. 2460 was written to enhance care for service members who are 70 percent or more disabled from a service-connected

injury, which Zeldin said often required hands-on assistance in order to complete everyday tasks. In Stony Brook, the Long Island State Veterans Home is only one of three facilities nationwide to offer a program called adult day health care, which delivers an alternative to nursing home care for disabled veterans and their families. But the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs does not cover such an expense at state veterans homes, putting a greater burden on service members’ wallets.

If passed, Zeldin said, the legislation would help expand this program, which could be offered at any of the 153 state veterans homes across the country.

Fred Sganga, director of the Long Island State Veterans Home, said the legislation would fix a harrowing disparity that disabled vets face on a daily basis.

“Since the original legislation to provide no-cost skilled nursing care to our veterans who are 70 percent or more service connected disabled was passed into law in 2006, those veterans who could possibly be served by an alternative like medical model adult day health care have been shortchanged of this wonderful opportunity,” he said. “Congressman Zeldin had the resolve to recognize this issue and bring an appropriate fix not only for the Long Island

State Veterans Home, but for the other 152 state veterans homes across the country.”

Noreen Saladino, whose husband James receives adult day health care to help combat the effects of being exposed to Agent Orange while serving during the Vietnam War, said the program has given her a new life.

“My personal life changed when James entered adult day health care,” she said. “It keeps him safe and comfortable.

Dr. Kenneth Kushansky, dean at the School of Medicine and senior vice president of Health Sciences at Stony Brook University, said the congressman’s bill advocated for a critical piece of veterans health care exercised at both Stony Brook Hospital and the 350-bed Long Island State Veterans Home.

“Stony Brook Medicine wants to acknowledge Congressman Zeldin for submitting this legislation on behalf of veterans and their families,” he said. “Providing funding for a long-term care alternative, like medical model adult day health care, will give our veterans and their families much deserved choice. Stony Brook Medicine serves as a model for the rest of the nation as it relates to long-term care for our nation’s heroes, and we are proud to be a part of this initiative.”

Nurses picket for more nurses

By GiSeLLe BaRkLey

Members of the New York State Nurses Association had drivers honking their horns near St. Charles Hospital in Port Jefferson last Friday, as picketers called for increased staffing of nurses.

Between 11:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. on April 8, nurses and supporters marched and chanted outside the hospital to spread awareness of their cause. According to the nurses’ association members, some nurses tend to 10 or more patients and those working in St. Charles’ Intensive Care Unit are exceeding what they call a safe limit of one to two patients per nurse.

Increased staffing would help nurses devote more time to their patients, according to group members, which is better for the patient.

New York State Nurses Association Deputy Director Nancy Joly said the organization has data showing that when ICU nurses have more than two patients “the chances of death are skyrocketed.”

The picketing comes as the St. Charles nurses’ union is negotiating with the hospital on a new contract, after the previous one expired in March 2015.

According to a statement from the hospital, the facility bases staffing guidelines on various factors, including when nurses call in sick, how much nursing care a patient needs, the number of patients who need care and guidelines set in previous union contracts.

Tracy Kosciuk, a St. Charles nurse for 27 years and president of the state nurses’

association’s executive committee for St. Charles nurses, said when they have too many patients, it’s difficult for nurses to give their “100 percent” and care for each patient, including teaching the patient and their family about their health.

“Unfortunately, the mentality … nowadays in the industry is [that] all hospitals are short-staffed,” Kosciuk said. “That’s not acceptable to have that mindset.”

But St. Charles said the nurses and the hospital share the same goal of providing their patients with high-quality care.

While the group has a right to picket, according to the hospital statement, it would prefer to discuss the nurses’ contract in a formal meeting.

“St. Charles remains committed to negotiating a fair contract … that supports our caregivers and the communities we serve,” the hospital said. “We will continue to negotiate in good faith with the union.”

Stony Brook resident Barbara Cea was among the nurses chanting outside St. Charles and celebrating when drivers honked their horns in solidarity. She has worked at the hospital for the past 32 years.

“They seem to be ignoring our pleas to increase the nurse-to-patient ratio so that we could provide adequate and safe care, which is more and more important,” Cea said. “We have to keep the nurses at the bedside.”

Cea supported the hospital’s statement that it’s trying to establish fair contracts with appropriate staffing guidelines, but said it’s been a slow process.

“Nobody knows when they’re going to

end up in the hospital,” Joly said. “A lot of people are worried about their communi-

Fans salute Stanley Cup-winning Islanders coach

By Alex Petroski

Huntington residents had the chance to say goodbye to an unforgettable champion.

On Friday, April 8, New York Islanders fans and former players gathered at the Church of St. Patrick in Huntington for a Mass celebrating the life of Al Arbour, the team’s late head coach who led the team to four straight Stanley Cup Championships starting in 1980. The Islanders are the only American team to ever do so in the National Hockey League.

The 19-year coach, a former Cold Spring Harbor resident, died in August, 2015, at 82 years old. He and his family were members at the Church of St. Patrick in Huntington for more than 30 years.

Arbour won 119 playoff games with the Islanders, which is an NHL record for most wins by a coach with one franchise.

During the 1980s, Arbour led the Islanders to 19 straight playoff series wins, which is still a record for all of North American professional sports. He was elected to the NHL Hall of Fame in 1996.

“Al was a man of respect, integrity and honesty,” said Joe McMahon, the team’s former equipment manager and one of the organizers of the week’s events, during a phone interview last Thursday.

“He had a massive impact on the community. For kids that are playing hockey

now on Long Island, I don’t know if you’d even be playing hockey on Long Island if it wasn’t for Al. Who knows if hockey would have survived on Long Island.”

Some Islander greats, including Clark Gillies, Bobby Nystrom, Denis Potvin, Chico Resch and Pat LaFontaine, attended the Mass. McMahon said he and other alumni

chose April 7 and 8 for the events because playoff time was very special to Arbour, and the Islanders-Rangers game at Madison Square Garden last Thursday night presented a perfect opportunity for fans and alumni to come together to remember the legendary coach while watching the game.

Former Islanders’ goaltender Glenn “Chico” Resch, who played from 1973 to 1981, called Arbour kind, merciful, patient and full of humility.

“Al certainly wasn’t perfect, but in my life, he had the greatest impact, and it was because of those qualities that we loved our beloved coach so much,” Resch said during the Mass, struggling to fight back tears.

Gillies, who was elected into the NHL Hall of Fame in 2002 and played under Arbour for more than a decade and was a key contributor in all four Stanley Cup seasons, delivered the eulogy Friday. After sharing stories and laughs about his time spent with Arbour, Gillies read from a poem.

“I read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of a friend,” Gillies read. “He referred to the dates on his tombstone that dated from the beginning to the end. He noted that first came the date of his birth, and he spoke of the following date with tears. But he said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years,” Gillies continued.

“Al, thank you for letting me share

your dash,” Gillies said at the conclusion of the poem.

The Mass came on the heels of a celebration last Thursday at the Fox Hollow Inn in Woodbury that included dinner, cocktails, appearances by current and former Islanders players and televisions broadcasting the Islanders 4-1 victory over the Rangers. Panel discussions hosted by Islanders broadcaster Jiggs McDonald carried on between periods of the game.

All net proceeds raised by the events were donated to the Al Arbour Fund, which benefits dementia research. McMahon said dementia contributed to Arbour’s death.

The Islanders concluded a successful regular season in their first year playing at Brooklyn’s Barclay’s Center, after 43 years at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale. The team will start a playoff run for its elusive fifth Stanley Cup this week.

“We lost a legend,” McMahon said.

Painting memories

Rocky Point High School art students in Greg Armine’s drawing and painting class helped to create lasting keepsakes for children halfway around the world through an initiative called The Memory Project.

Twenty-two students from the class volunteered for the project, which called for them to create a self-portrait of a child from Madagascar based on a submitted photograph. They each donated $15 toward the project, which was used to cover the supplies for the portrait and its delivery to the recipients.

“This was my first time participating and I felt this was a great opportunity for students to give back to our global community through their love of mak-

ing art,” said Armine. “What a wonderful thought that a portrait that you have created has traveled halfway around the world and is now a keepsake for a child who has very little.”

According to its website, The Memory Project is a nonprofit organization that collaborates with art teachers and students to create portraits for youth around the world who have faced substantial challenges, such as neglect, abuse, loss and extreme poverty. Their intent is to help the children feel valued and important, to know that many people care about their well-being, and that the portraits will act as meaningful Photo from Rocky Point school district pieces of personal history in the future. Above, these Rocky Point High School students volunteered for The Memory Project.

Suzanne Johnson, Suffolk County Community College’s vice president for Academic Affairs, is one of a select group of 40 educators nationally that has been awarded the prestigious Aspen Presidential Fellowship for Community College Excellence.

The Aspen Institute, an educational and policy studies organization based in Washington, D.C., announced recently that Johnson joined the inaugural class of the Aspen Presidential Fellows, a diverse group of extraordinary leaders “with the drive and capacity to transform community colleges to achieve

higher levels of student success.”

“It is an honor and privilege to represent Suffolk County Community College as a member of the inaugural Aspen Presidential Fellows,” Johnson said.

“My participation in the fellowship offers a wonderful opportunity for me and the college. I’m looking forward to the work ahead.”

The fellowship is a highly selective year-long program to prepare leaders aspiring, or recently appointed, to the community college presidency. Fellows will participate in a series of innovative seminars and ongoing mentorship

focused on a new vision for leadership, delivered in collaboration with Stanford University faculty and top community college leaders.

The goal of The Aspen Presidential Fellowship for Community College Excellence is to equip college leaders with the tools to dramatically improve student success.

Johnson was selected through a rigorous process that considered her abilities to take strategic risks, lead strong teams and cultivate partnerships, and focus on results-oriented improvements in student success and access.

RED LIGHTS

Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta goes over legislation to suspend the camera program.

in citation payments in 2014 and paid $9.5 million to the vendor to operate the program. The net proceeds were credited to the county’s general fund.

Backing up Trotta was Lawrence Zacarese, assistant chief of police and director of the Office of Emergency Management at Stony Brook University.

In his remarks, speaking as a paramedic who has served Suffolk for decades, Zacarese said the Indian Head Road and Jericho Turnpike intersection was a dangerous spot in Commack and red light cameras only made it worse by forcing drivers to jam on their brakes at yellow lights in order to avoid tickets.

“People are confused,” he said. “The data shows that clearly.”

Paul Margiotta, executive director of the county’s Traffic and Parking Violations Agency, defended the county’s program while citing the report’s evidence of decreasing crash figures coupled with increasing trends of distracted drivers.

“The Suffolk County red light camera program has reduced crashes involving injuries at intersections with cameras and dramatically reduced right-angle crashes, which have the highest potential for serious injuries or even fatalities, by more than 20 percent,” he said. “Intersections with red light cameras on average are safer than intersections without cameras. Unfortunately, crashes throughout all of Suffolk County have increased, primarily because of distracted driving which has more than doubled since just 2012. It is clear that Suffolk County needs to do more, not less, to address traffic safety.”

At intersections where cameras were installed, overall crashes decreased by 3 percent, right-angle crashes went down by 21 percent and crashes involving injury decreased 4 percent, according to the county report.

Trotta’s pleas came on the same day repeat offender Stephen Ruth, of Centereach, was arrested for allegedly tampering with 19 of the cameras throughout the county.

Ruth was first cuffed in August for allegedly using a pole to reach several red light cameras in Ronkonkoma and turn their lenses away from the road and toward the sky. He was charged with criminal tampering and obstructing governmental administration.

Police said Ruth “cut wires and manipulated equipment” on 18 of those cameras between April 9 and 10. The 19th camera incident in question dates back to Jan. 18, police said, when Ruth allegedly cut down a camera pole at the intersection of County Road 83 and Old Town Road in Coram.

According to a police estimate, the incidents caused at least $25,000 of damage.

Ruth, 43, has been charged with two felony counts of second-degree criminal mischief. Hauppaugebased attorneys William J. Keahon and Craig Fleischer are representing him on those charges but are not commenting on the case, according to their law office.

Ruth’s arrest comes about a week after another man was arrested for allegedly tampering with red light cameras. Bryan Valentine, of St. James, has been charged with two counts of second-degree criminal tampering after police said the 26-year-old placed plastic bags over red light cameras at the signal in the Main Street and Landing Avenue intersection in Smithtown.

Attorney information for Valentine was not available.

In interviews Ruth — whom his supporters have dubbed the “Red Light Robin Hood” — has stood behind his actions. He has received praise from people who oppose the county’s red light camera program and say it is simply a money grab, as the county receives much revenue from the tickets generated.

In rough weather, Mad Dogs outlast Port Jeff Boys’ Tennis

Middle Country . . . . . 5 Port Jefferson . . . . . . 2

By Bill landon

Despite wind-whipped conditions Monday, the Middle Country boys’ tennis team managed to pull out its second win of the season over Port Jefferson, 5-2, to earn the No. 3 spot in League VI behind undefeated Longwood and Mount Sinai.

The Mad Dogs, currently 2-2 league, fell 7-0 at Longwood last week. The Royals, now 1-5 league, had their hands full again with Middle Country, after falling to its opponent, 4-3, in the season opener.

Port Jefferson head coach Dennis Christofor said the weather made a win difficult, but added that his team has played in worse conditions before, just last week against Comsewogue.

T

he Centereach softball team traveled to Newfield Saturday and edged ahead of its crosstown competitor.

“It’s a matter of who gets more first serves in the box — and they don’t even have to be hard,” he said. “The faster you can get the ball to the other guy’s backhand the faster you’re going to win the point, because at this level, they tend to have weaker backhands than forehands.”

Port Jefferson sophomore Eli Doyle had his hands full as he battled Middle Country sophomore Brandon Kittle. He won the first set 6-4, but dropped sets two and three, 2-6.

“In conditions like these, consistency is the key,” Doyle said. “[You need to be] placing the ball away from your opponent.”

Middle Country senior and four-year varsity player Solyman Hatami won his match, defeating his opponent 2-1.

“You need to take into consideration the elements — the wind direction and the chill factor,” Hatami said. “In addition to the athletic aspect, tennis is a very skill-based sport and part of that skill is thinking.”

Port Jefferson junior Nick Kafeiti said each end of the court presented difficult conditions.

“You have to adapt to it — knowing the wind direction makes you play the ball difPhotos by Bill Landon ferently,” he said. “We did OK today.”

OPINION Not about money

Photo by Phil Corso

A county report says Indian Head Road and Jericho Turnpike in Commack saw crashes increase since a red light camera was installed in 2014.

EDITORIAL

Too late to brake

Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta (RFort Salonga) put the county’s red light camera program back under the microscope this week, as he should. We appreciate his watchdog approach when it comes to the county’s finances — he went so far as to call the red light camera program, which photographs and tickets cars that run through red lights or don’t come to a full stop before turning right on red, “taxation by citation.”

This newspaper has been historically critical of the program, and when the county released its 2014 annual report on the matter, it reminded us why.

In 2014 alone, the county collected $27.5 million from about 321,000 citations issued. Most of that was profit — Suffolk paid the camera vendor only $9.5 million to operate the program. And the county’s net revenue that year represented an exponential increase from when the cameras went live in 2010.

We are not ignoring the statistics, though. We recognize that overall crashes decreased by 3 percent, right-angle crashes went down by 21 percent and crashes involving injury decreased 4 percent.

Rear-end crashes, however, went up 42 percent.

But Suffolk County has gotten into a dangerous habit. While some lawmakers and residents remain critical of the cameras, our government now has several years of ever-increasing citation dollars going to the county’s general fund. If we were to nix the red light camera program, it would leave a gaping hole in the county’s pocketbook. Rather than cutting equal expenses, we all know where our government would turn to make up the difference: taxpayers’ wallets.

At this point, the best solution would be to go back in time and never allow the program to pass in the first place. Instead, we urge our lawmakers and neighbors to continue to be critical of the red light camera program and keep it honest as it evolves across our county. If there’s no way to dismantle it without passing the buck onto taxpayers, we hope together we can at least find a happier medium.

TO ThE EDITOR: This week the television media has been providing a Long Island man with a ridiculous amount of air time. What did he do to get this coverage? he cut the wires leading to several red light cameras.

I would like you to visualize something I experienced many years ago as a Suffolk County auxiliary police officer in the Town of huntington. There had been an automobile accident at an intersection. A paramedic friend of mine was carrying a 2-yearold from one of the wrecked cars to an ambulance. The 2-year-old put his arms around my friend’s neck, said “I love you, Daddy,” and died. I can’t remember that night without crying.

Try to imagine that 2-year-old is your child or grandchild. Then imagine someone who thinks we don’t need red light enforcement has indirectly caused that “accident.”

Now visualize a 19-year-old girl who had waited for a green light to pull out of a parking lot.

A 23-year-old runs the red light.

When I reached the scene, what was left of the young girl’s car was back in the bushes. She was alive and semi-alert. The problem was her car had been so badly smashed and driven into her body that it was hard to tell what was part of the car and what was part of her

body. She also died.

Once again imagine that young girl is your child, grandchild, wife or sister. Then also imagine, once again, someone who thinks we don’t need red light enforcement has indirectly caused that “accident.”

We live in or near communities having some of the worst roads and drivers in New York State.

Route 347 in Port Jefferson Station and Terryville has the highest accident rate of any similar road in the state. Route 25 in Smithtown has the highest fatality rate of any similar road in the state.

Why? In my opinion, it is the uncaring, unthinking, self-serving

persons like this, the “Red Light Robin hood.”

I think he should go to jail and then be forced to spend a minimum of a year cleaning up the most gruesome accident scenes available.

To paraphrase Bill Clinton, the issue isn’t money, stupid, it’s lives.

That’s just one man’s opinion.

Bare minimum TO ThE EDITOR: State Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) has done it again. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) has gotten a 67 percent increase in the minimum wage enacted without so much as a peep from Sen. Flanagan or his cohorts.

While prudent increases in the minimum wage certainly make sense, such an extreme increase has the potential to not only put many small businesses out of business, but also to hurt those it professes to help through higher costs and the elimination of many lower-skilled jobs. In fact, I have already begun to hear from clients of mine that they will be eliminating jobs in the future because of this unprecedented increase. In addition, I wonder

how many are asking if a part of the impetus behind this development is to help with a severely underfunded 1199 union pension fund?

I had contacted Sen. Flanagan’s office and been informed that he “shares my concerns.” I was also informed by him at a hauppauge Industrial Association event that a middle ground would be negotiated. Based upon my past experience with him, I was afraid of what this meant and it was proven to be true. From my experience, it is my opinion that he is a consummate politician who will do what is necessary to enhance his career and not necessarily what is good for his constituents. Sure enough, he went behind doors with Gov. Cuomo, as had his predecessor, who will be spending time in jail, and worked out a deal that has the potential

to do extreme harm to our local economy.

I was sorry to see in our local newspapers that in their outrage over this development, local leaders tried unsuccessfully to get state Assemblyman Mike Fitzpatrick (R-St. James) to run against Sen. Flanagan in the next primary. While I have not always agreed with all of his views, I have always had the highest respect for Assemblyman Fitzpatrick, because his actions are always guided by what he believes in and not what will enhance his political career. Perhaps if enough money could be raised to allow him to mount an effective challenge against Sen. Flanagan, he could be persuaded to change his mind? I certainly hope so.

Celebrating the medical team behind the college heroes

D. none of the above

By DanieL Dunaief

news@tbrnewspapers.com

M

y nephew will never be on a Wheaties box. He won’t be on the cover of Sports Illustrated, either, and he won’t be in a team picture that glows with the warmth of broad, confident smiles at the end of a championship season.

Nonetheless, he works just as hard and puts in just as

much time, dedicating himself to college sports at his Division I school as do many of the athletes whose natural talents and achievements thousands of students, alumni and fans applaud at arenas, fields and stadiums around the country.

My nephew is an emergency medical technician and is studying the field of kinesiology, which is the science of human movement. Someday he will either be a doctor, a trainer or some combination thereof where his knowledge of the way the body works will enable him to help athletes and nonathletes alike overcome injuries, stresses and strains or their own physical challenges.

He is a part of the team behind the team. He doesn’t lead chants and he doesn’t scream for the adoring fans to get out of their seats. He helps get athletes back on their feet again back in the stadium, and back to doing what they love when the inevitable battle of wills

brings two people into the same space at the same time.

Every morning he gets up some time around sunrise, as he slowly slinks out of his dorm room to the training center. There, he waits patiently, hoping his services aren’t necessary but ready, willing and able to help any of the injured athletes who need immediate medical attention.

He is like so many of the other medical and emergency response crews who close their eyes not knowing whether they’ll be able to rest for two minutes, two hours or 10 hours when they go to sleep.

He works with amateur athletes who might one day make an Olympic team, a professional team, set a school record in an athletic event or simply bring glory to his college for one magnificent day.

He dedicates himself, day after day, to his fellow students.

We recently visited him at his school, where he had a

rare day off because the team he’s helping didn’t need him that day. We twisted his arm to watch a softball game on an unusually cold afternoon.

The team played a doubleheader. My nephew saw his counterpart on the field during the first game of the doubleheader. The next day, he said he found out that his friend arrived two hours before the first game and didn’t leave until at least an hour after the second game ended, which means he spent about nine hours of a weekend day focused on supporting these athletes.

This is great training, building his professional endurance, giving him opportunities to see sports injuries — and helping him figure out where on the medical sports spectrum he’d like to dedicate himself. Still, I couldn’t help remembering some of the slow, lazy mornings in college, the hours tossing a baseball back and forth on a lawn,

My first workshop in the morning was a valuable one dealing with good organizational management. What’s that, you might ask? To me that means working in a corporate or nonprofit group of any kind, productively, happily and successfully. It means optimizing resources and achieving a group’s lofty goals in a way that is most satisfying both to members of the group and to its clientele. It also means innovating to embrace future change even while preserving the core of the business.

What has that to do with us at the newspapers? Stay with me and I will reveal a nice surprise.

In the past, in what we now call “the old industrial age,” the manner in which organizations ran was hierarchical, meaning from the top down in a vertical fashion. You’ve undoubtedly seen such graphics depicting the CEO at the top, followed below by the next row of managers, with further rows below them. Those workers in each row reported to the manager

immediately above them, with final decisions coming down from above. That was how the company managed its decisionmaking and workflow.

Today the model for better management has dramatically changed. Corporate flow charts have flattened and been transformed into more of a web than a ladder. The group chart is horizontal rather than vertical, perhaps influenced by the internet. Employees at all levels of a company or group are vested in the decision-making process, to the greater success and satisfaction of personnel making the product or performing the service and its quality for the end user.

That is optimal organizational management today, led

by Silicon Valley high technology companies in the larger corporate world, who took away titles, reserved parking places and physical partitions, and created the sense of equal participation and valued input that constantly push toward change while still maintaining the traditional business.

So now for the nice surprise.

We at Times Beacon Record News Media, celebrating our 40th anniversary this month, have always run the business as a web rather than a ladder.

Why? Because the people who have worked here, a great many of whom are still with us, have been respected for their talent and commitment and encouraged to offer their best ideas, concerns and input. We have been very lucky with the type of person who chooses to work with us, and we are most appreciative of our good fortune in that regard.

Now comes the best part.

While we have had many talented men working here, and we still do, we are nonetheless an organization with a majority of women. And I learned in business school, many years ago, that webs rather than ladders are instinctively more typical of women. Along with the networking concept go ideas like job sharing in order to combine work and also manage sick children, flexible hours, working at home and

Ready, willing and able to help any of the injured athletes. and the carefree joy of watching my school’s hockey team win a big game. My nephew, by choice, spends hours he could be studying or hanging out with buddies playing an important supportive role well behind the bench.

Athletes defy gravity, each other and their own limitations to become the kinds of heroes we celebrate each day.

At the same time, when those limitations catch up with them, they turn to people like my nephew and a deep bench of medical talent to bring them back to the games they love. My nephew may not be on the field but he, like so many others at these big schools with winning athletic programs, plays an important role off of it.

aratoga Springs had snow on the ground when I arrived at dusk for the start of the New York Press Association convention a week ago Wednesday. Coming from Long Island, where daffodils are brightly nodding at passersby, forsythia are beacons of the coming spring and buds are finally on the tips of skeletal tree limbs, I had left the world of winter behind. So it was a bit of a shock to see how far we at home had advanced.
