Candidates separated by 29 votes still waiting By Alex Petroski Waiting is the hardest part. The Democratic primary to decide who will face freshman U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (RShirley) in the race for the 1st Congressional District seat in November was June 28, but as of print time on Wednesday, Zeldin’s opponent was still a mystery. The former town supervisor in Southampton Anna Throne-Holst led Setauket native and former prosecutor and venture capitalist David Calone by just 29 votes when the dust settled on election night. More than a week later, it remained unclear who would come out on top. The Suffolk County Board of Elections will begin counting the 1,794 absentee ballots cast on Thursday, though a department employee said that process might take several days. The absentee ballots will be counted by a bipartisan team of department employees in addition to representatives from both campaigns at the Board of Elections office in Yaphank. In emailed statements from their campaigns, both candidates expressed confidence about what the tally will hold after all the votes are counted and thanked their supporters for their hard work to date. “I’m proud to be in the lead after election night, and am most especially proud of the positive campaign we ran,” ThroneHolst said through a press representative. “I owe a heartfelt debt of gratitude to our thousands of supporters and volunteers, who are invaluable partners in getting our message to voters.” Calone said he has high hopes thanks to the nearly nonexistent deficit.
“Given that there are about 1,800 absentee ballots that haven’t been counted — roughly 15 percent of the overall vote — no one knows who will end up on top until we count every vote,” Calone said in a statement. “More than anything, I’m grateful to Democrats around the district who volunteered to help my campaign.” Neither candidate hesitated to turn their sites toward Zeldin. “I expect to prevail once every vote is counted and I look forward to continuing our campaign to provide a strong contrast to Congressman Lee Zeldin, who is one of Donald Trump’s greatest advocates in Washington,” Calone said. Throne-Holst also invoked presumptive Republican presidential nominee and businessman Donald Trump in referring to Zeldin. “I look forward to working with Democrats throughout the district as we focus on our common goal of defeating Lee Zeldin,” she said. “We all know Lee Zeldin is not looking forward to going up against my record, and voters will reject not only his extremist views and votes, but also his enthusiastic embrace of Donald Trump, who is dangerous for both Long Island and the country.” At the end of the night on June 28, unofficial results showed Throne-Holst with 5,446 votes — 50.09 percent of the vote — and Calone with 5,417 votes — 49.82 percent. Zeldin unseated six-term former U.S. Rep. Tim Bishop (D) by a wide margin back in 2014, with a final vote total of 54 percent to 45 percent. Check back next week for an update and results, should the counting be complete.
With 1,800 absentee ballots left to be counted, ThroneHolst is leading David Calone by just a few dozen votes. Results should be known next week.

Freedom in flags Heritage Park in Mount Sinai displayed various state and American flags along the Avenue of America for the Parade of American Flags on the Fourth of July. Locals came out to learn more about the nation’s history and could take part in a scavenger hunt while learning. There was also a fireworks show held at Bald Hill in Farmingville, which was a fun, festive way for local community members to sit and watch some fireworks while enjoying Independence Day.

SC Legislature hosts seminar for small businesses By susAN risoli Industry professionals and economic development experts gathered at Suffolk County Community College’s Selden campus on June 24 to talk about the region’s changing business climate. “Charting the Course,” was sponsored by the NYS Small Business Development Center. New downtowns and upgraded transportation are unfolding, said Suffolk County executive Steve Bellone (D). The first phase of Wyandanch’s incarnation as “the largest new transportation-centered hub on Long Island” is nearing completion, Bellone said, and the housing phase of the Ronkonkoma hub is about to begin. He said the projects differ from Patchogue’s much-touted revitalization because that village already had one of the area’s “existing downtowns that suffered post-World War II … and now are attractive to young people.” But in Wyandanch and Ronkonkoma, Bellone said, downtowns are being created from scratch by “tearing down dilapidated industrial areas.” The county plans to link the Long Island Rail Road’s three lines to create “real intra-Island commuting,” Bellone said. And he said ride services such as Uber, Lyft, and driverless cars will come to this area. Despite changes on the horizon, Bellone said, the region still has challenges to correct. One is a decentralized government structure that’s “hyperlocally focused.”

Attendees enjoy “A taste of suffolk,” part of the event’s offerings, with host suffolk County legislature Presiding officer DuWayne Gregory(D-Amityville), far left. “I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but we have a lot of layers and levels of government here on Long Island,” Bellone said. The structure makes it easy to handle local matters but gets in the way of regional growth, he said. Although the “Brexit” vote was not officially on the agenda, Great Britain’s deci-
sion to leave the European Union was felt all the way to Selden. “I just got a text that the Dow [Jones Industrial Average] fell 400 points,” said Jon Cooper, president of Spectronics Corporation, a Long Island manufacturer of ultraviolet lighting equipment. The former Suffolk County legislator said that even
though only a few hours had passed since the vote, “it’s already had a tremendously adverse effect” on American companies that do overseas business. Cooper said he was rethinking preliminary plans to partner with international distributors. And if other countries leave the EU, he said, the resulting array of export regulations and currencies will make things harder for local companies. Many businesspeople in the audience expressed concern about young people leaving Long Island and about small businesses closing up shop. “I think I have a positive attitude, compared to some of the people here,” said Anne Shybunko-Moore, President of GSE Dynamics Inc., an engineering and manufacturing company that makes military mechanical and structural components. Shybunko-Moore also is chairwoman of the Manufacturing Consortium of Long Island, a network of Long Island companies in the manufacturing industry. She invited Long Island leaders to “change the message” by talking publicly about the successes of Long Island companies, and recommended asking companies to talk about their growth. “There’s equipment being purchased. With that equipment, there are new capabilities and new people being hired,” she pointed out. If every company in the MCLI group hires one person, Shybunko-Moore said, “That’s a bigger story than one company laying off 500 people.”
Brookhaven opposes rate hike from utility company Board joins supervisor to combat National Grid proposal By Alex Petroski Long Island residents who go to National Grid for their gas may be paying more come January 2017, but not if the Town of Brookhaven has anything to say about it. The Brookhaven town board passed a resolution, with a unanimous vote June 30, opposing the company’s proposed rate increase that was announced in January. Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) sponsored the resolution, though all six board members asked to be added as cosponsors prior to voting. “This is an outrageous rate hike — it will impose a burden,” Romaine said in a phone interview last week. “We think it’s far too great.” The increase would cost National Grid’s approximately 570,000 Long Island customers about $160 annually on top of what they already pay, according to a statement from the company in January. The increase would be about 12 percent. Wendy Ladd, a spokeswoman for the company, responded to the resolution in an email Tuesday. “We feel our proposals and the costs associated with them are essential to provide customers with safe and reliable gas service, enhance storm resiliency, expand the availability of gas service, help reduce methane, support our neediest customers, and to make the investments required to upgrade and modernize aging infrastructure and grow the system to meet the needs
of a 21st century clean energy economy for years to come,” Ladd said. Romaine said there is a precedent for the town intervening in battles over costs with utility companies. Last year, Brookhaven took on Long Island Power Authority in a similar case. “LIPA now knows that we, if nothing else, will be watchdogs for the citizens of Brookhaven,” Romaine said. National Grid New York’s President Ken Daly commented on the matter in January. “National Grid has invested more than $4.5 billion over the past decade to modernize and build a safer and more reliable natural gas system for our customers. During this period of time, we have also maintained stable delivery rates for our customers,” he said in a statement. “Now, as we respond to the need to invest even more into our aging gas networks and prepare for the future needs of our customers, the investments required to provide this service have increased. The proposals will allow us to accelerate our gas main replacement program, improve critical customer service, and ensure that we have a modernized and technologically advanced natural gas system for our customers and the communities we serve, now and in the future.” The Brookhaven town board is not against a rate hike altogether, though members said they would like to see it greatly reduced. The resolution read in part: “the cost of living on Long Island is already astronomi-

Brookhaven supervisor ed romaine is speaking out against a proposed rate hike by National Grid. cal partly due to high utility costs, placing a heavy burden on the residents of Long Island … residents are leaving Long Island in search of better opportunity and a lower cost of living.” The resolution concluded with the board’s intention to “send a letter in opposition to the proposed rate hikes by National Grid and the Department of Public
Service.” National Grid’s January statement said the rate increases would allow them to significantly increase the gas main replacement program and improve technology in flood-prone areas, among other benefits. The proposal will be reviewed by the New York State Department of Public Service before it is approved.

Babysitter charged with DWI at Mount Sinai beach Suffolk County Police arrested a 19-year-old babysitter after someone called police to report a woman was intoxicated with four children in her car. A good Samaritan called police at approximately 2 p.m. on June 30 after she watched Sabrina Macri searching for her vehicle in the parking lot of Cedar Beach on Harbor Beach Road in Mount Sinai. The babysitter had four boys, ranging from 4 to 11 years old, in her care. Once Macri located her black 2015 Honda Civic, she attempted to drive away, but the good Samaritan used her own vehicle to block Macri in until police arrived. Macri, of Sound Beach, was charged with driving while intoxicated, aggravated driving while intoxicated with a child passenger 15 years old or younger (Leandra’s Law), four counts of endangering the welfare of a child and two counts of seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. She was held overnight at the 4th Precinct arraigned at First District Court in Central Islip the following morning. Macri pleaded not guilty last Friday in

the arraignment. She is being held with a cash bail of $10,000. The judge has already issued a protection order on the children, thus prohibiting Macri to be near them at home or at school.

Tax on plastic bags may fall to shoppers
File photos
Legislator William spencer, on left, has presented a new version of a bill to reduce the use of plastic bags, above.
By Victoria Espinoza The plan to reduce the use of plastic bags in Suffolk County has been modified with a 5 cent tax on plastic bags replacing an original proposal for an all-out ban. County Legislator William “Doc” Spencer (D-Centerport) updated a bill he submitted in March to reduce the use of plastic bags in retail sales after he saw how other areas found success with a small tax. “My focus all along has been to improve the environment and reduce waste,” Spencer said in an email. “The decision to change course involved multiple factors, most importantly evidence from various municipalities with similar legislation that has proven to be effective.” The new version would charge 5 cents per bag used by any customer, and all fees collected would be retained by the store. There would be no fee for customers who bring in their own bags and a store cannot discourage them from doing so, the law proposed. A spokeswoman from Spencer’s office said the legislator looked to Washington, D.C., as an example of a successful implementation of a 5 cent fee. The Anacostia River Clean Up and Protection Act went into effect in January 2010, and it requires all businesses that sell food or alcohol to charge a nickel for each disposable paper or plastic carryout bag. The bill was the first of its kind in the United States, and in a 2013 study of the law, researchers found that both residents and businesses reported a significant reduction in disposable-bag use and a majority of residents and businesses supported the bag fee. In addition, both residents and businesses said they saw fewer plastic bags littering the area. The study found that D.C. residents estimated a 60 percent decrease in household bag use, moving from 10 disposable bags per week before the law to four bags per week in 2013. Moreover, 79 percent of residents reported carrying reusable bags when shopping and 74 percent of businesses saw an increase in customers bringing their own bags. And, perhaps most important for residents who are still wary of the tax, the study reported only 8 percent of businesses and 16 percent of residents felt bothered by the law. Spencer said this law is an important step in protecting the environment. “This is an opportunity to secure a win for the environment because it will form a consensus of necessary support among the legislature and key stakeholders,” he said. The Citizens Campaign for the Environment said there is more plastic in the oceans than plankton, with 46,000 pieces of plastic in every square mile. Many marine animals are choked and strangled by these bags, or die consuming them. The CCE said plastic pollution negatively impacts 267 species of marine life. Spencer said he intends to keep a close look on the progression of the bill, and that if a tax doesn’t reduce the use of plastic bags enough, he will reconsider an outright ban. “We are moving in a positive direction, and I intend to look closely at bag usage — before and after implementation — to ensure it’s effective,” he said. “If it is not having a significant impact, I have every intention of working to strengthen the policy including revisiting the ban.”

Alternative technologies bring hope to polluted waters By Colm Ashe The message from Stony Brook University’s center for clean water technology was clear — it’s time to cut the poop. Suffolk County’s waters are inundated with nitrogen pollution and the main culprit is wastewater coming from our homes, officials said this week. There are more than 360,000 homes in the county using a 5,000-year-old system for waste management — septic tanks and cesspools. The waste from these systems is leaching into the groundwater, causing high amounts of nitrogen pollution. On June 20, the NYS Center for Clean Water Technology at Stony Brook University proposed the new technologies they aim to implement in order to restore our polluted waters to a healthy state. The design is simple, officials said: utilizing locally sourced, natural materials to provide a system that is both efficient and economically feasible. This is not just an environmental issue. Suffolk County’s waters underlie the foundation of the state’s greater economy, from real estate to tourism. If nothing is done to counteract continuous contamination, officials argued, the very identity of Long Island could be compromised. The center is taking action, and its members shared that action with the public on Thursday, June 23. “These simple systems, comprised of
sand and finely ground wood, are demonstrating an ability to treat household wastewater as well or better than the most advanced wastewater treatment plants,” said Christopher Gobler, the center’s codirector and professor in the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University. “Similar in footprint and basic functionality to a drain field, the most common form of onsite wastewater dispersal around the country, we call them nitrogen-removing biofilters, and the next step is to pilot them at residences to see if they can consistently perform in more dynamic situations.” To accompany the high nitrogen-removal rates, these nitrogen-removing biofilters are proving effective in removing other unwanted contaminants from the water, such as pharmaceuticals and personal care products, Gobler said. Harold Walker, center co-director, professor and chair of the Department of Civil Engineering at Stony Brook University, reinforced the new system’s viability, adding, “they are passive systems by design, which means they are low maintenance and require little energy to operate.” Biofilters are not the only technology the center is working on. Ever since they were funded by the state environmental protection fund in 2015, their collaborative efforts with leading experts from the public and private sectors have produced several treatment options all in the name of
Nitrogen pollution is an ongoing concern in suffolk County. providing cost-effective, high-performance waste-management systems suitable for widespread implementation on Long Island. However, the biofilters end up receiving most of the praise. According to Richard Amper, executive director of the Long Island Pine Barrens Society, the technology “is among the most promising we’ve seen in Long Island’s effort to restore water quality.”

Regardless of the obvious potential, it is still up to Suffolk County to approve the systems for commercial use. In an exclusive interview with TBR News Media, Gobler said, “some systems will be approved this year.” As part of the Suffolk County Department of Health Services demonstration program, the center should see local testing as early as this fall. Pilot installations are already underway at a test center, Gobler said.
Climate change is factor in reducing drought: SBU study By Colm Ashe The general consensus among those who study the evaporating future of the global water supply is to blame population growth. However, a recent study out of Stony Brook University suggests climate change may be the dominant catalyst for future exposure to drought. A team of scholars used 16 climate models and United Nation population growth projections to ensure a more accurate prediction. The study reported that the number of people exposed to extreme drought would see a 426.6 percent increase by 2100 at the current rates of greenhouse gas emissions and population growth. While many might agree that water scarcity will become increasingly more problematic in the future — especially if preventative actions don’t amp up fast — there is a difference between what each party suggests is the best approach: to focus on slowing population increases with socioeconomic development or to cut the rate of greenhouse gas emissions. This study states the latter may be the most efficient way to avoid widespread drought. Their predictions attribute 59.5 percent of future drought to climate change and only 9.2 percent of the increase to population
A stony Brook University study says climate change plays a bigger role in droughts than some think. growth. The remaining 31.4 percent accounts for the combined effect of these two factors. According to Stony Brook University’s professor Oleg Smirnov, who was involved in conducting the study, the “results imply that top greenhouse gas-emitters have the greatest capacity to decrease future exposure to extreme drought.” Though climate change mitiga-
tion policies may have the power to most effectively reduce the future effects of widespread drought, population growth is still an important factor to consider. “Population growth alone is responsible for over 35 million more people exposed to extreme drought globally per month by the end of the century,” Smirnov said. “However, we also found that, for the same pe-
riod, climate change is responsible for about 230 million more people exposed to extreme drought.” The conclusion that Smirnov and his team have come to portrays climate change as playing a more important role than population increase. However, each country is affected differently by each factor, so the solution is not as simple as just cutting emissions.

The worst-case scenario would be to continue at the present rate of both greenhouse gas emissions and population growth. Regardless of which factor ranks in terms of importance, this study and many others like it suggest the same message: if we are to counter the effects of future global drought exposure, we need to act as soon as possible.

Middle Country seniors receive honored award Graduating high school seniors from Middle Country school district were honored at the 16th Annual Butch Dellecave Awards held on June 12, 2016 at the West Lake Inn in Patchogue. Named in memory of the legendary ed-
ucator, official, and coach Gaetano “Butch” Dellecave, the award is the product of a highly successful 16-year partnership between local school districts in Suffolk County and the award organizers: the Economic Opportunity Council of Suffolk, the
Butch Dellecave Foundation, and Newsday. Athletic Directors from all sixty-six Suffolk County school districts are asked to nominate one male and one female from their high school senior class. Nominees must be students who are not only at the
top of their game, but also score high in classroom performance and in their commitment to local community service. Centereach nominated Lauren Meigel and Justin Eck, and Newfield nominated Shannon Doherty and Denzel Williams.

OpiniOn Editorial
Letters to the editor Congressman Zeldin support
File photo
We’re proud to be Americans Do you ever stop and think what the Fourth of July is really all about? While we were enjoying our BBQs, lounging at the beach, sipping on a drink or lighting fireworks this Independence Day, we realized the meaning of this holiday, like many others, can be forgotten when we’re busy trying to have a good time. Our nation’s founders fought for our freedom. Following the American Revolution, the 13 American colonies regarded themselves as a new nation, and with that, came a string of unalienable rights that we now mark with patriotic displays on July 4, to symbolize our pride and celebration of this freedom. Reflecting on what it means, and why we’re honored to live in this country, several things came to mind. Freedom of speech is something that Americans can take for granted. The ability to express opinions, either as an individual or as part of the media, is essential to the backbone of our country. Two in our editorial department have backgrounds that extend beyond our borders. One, a first-generation American, was raised with a particular appreciation for the freedoms we enjoy. Both her parents emigrated from Eastern Europe as children in the 1920s and were raised in New York. They faced challenges including learning a new language and adapting to American ways, but in America there was no tsar, conscripting male heads of households or, in retrospect, no dictator on the rise who would eventually annihilate most of the Jews left behind in Eastern Europe. The American Dream became a reality for her parents. Another editorial staffer’s father moved to this country from Colombia when he was in his 20s. Hearing about his background, she loves that he was able to prosper in this country — not just survive — but pursue his dream job of teaching and find a career where he is still excited to go to work and see his students 30 years later. As the daughter of an immigrant, she’s proud to be a part of the country that welcomed her dad and let him follow his dream. While we look back on what we were founded on, and why this country is unique in the freedoms it gives us, we can also look ahead, to what we want it to be. We can be thankful for what we have, and for what America stands for, but also strive to continue to make this country an even better place than it was when we became a new nation on Independence Day.

I am incredibly proud to have a congressman who, in just his first term, has accomplished so much in so many different areas. Lee Zeldin has made it clear that he cares about our veterans and first responders and has fought for better health care and benefits for those who deserve it most. As someone who still serves in the military, Congressman Zeldin knows the needs of veterans and is a proven fighter when it comes to helping our nation’s heroes get back on their feet. Congressman Zeldin sees how to grow Long Island’s economy through repealing jobkilling regulations and enacting tax reform so businesses can thrive. He opposed Obama’s flawed Trade Promotion Authority to keep our good paying jobs in America, instead of sending them overseas. At a time when our local infrastructure was neglected and crumbling, Congressman Zeldin redirected federal funds for our roads and

Long Islanders know that one of our greatest assets is the local environment; whether it’s our beautiful coastlines, nature preserves or the Great South Bay itself, our district is full of natural treasures. Lee Zeldin has fought to preserve the environment and keep its resources in the hands of locals who know the area, not the Washington bureaucracy.
Our congressman knows that the best decisions are made locally, which is why he opposes Common Core and supports limiting federal testing in our schools and giving states the power to choose what gets taught. In less than two years, Lee Zeldin has accomplished more than his predecessor did in 12; imagine what he can do with another term!

Protect the North Shore environment of shorebirds With summer and beach season upon us, coastal areas are magnets for birds and people alike. However, booming coastal development and recreational use are rapidly eroding vital habitat for birds and other wildlife. Increasing pollution, overfishing and sea level rise have also put coastal birds at greater risk. Now is the time for us to act together. Long Island’s ecosystem is one of the richest veins of biodiversity on the planet — more diverse than the Florida Everglades –— and is essential to the survival of Atlantic Flyway shorebirds. More than two dozen Important Bird Areas (IBAs) have been designated within the Long Island Ecosystem. (The IBA program is an international bird conservation initiative that identifies, monitors and protects habitats critical to the success of bird populations.) Audubon New York is committed to protecting birds and the vital habitat along New York’s coasts where people and birds interconnect. Our mission has never been more important. Working closely with the sev-
en Long Island Audubon chapters and headquartered at the Theodore Roosevelt Sanctuary & Audubon Center in Oyster Bay Cove, we are actively working to reduce threats at sites that support piping plovers, American oystercatchers, least terns and more. What can you do to help? Be informed: Our efforts, working with our strong network at the local, state and national levels, are helping to protect Plum Island, secure needed funding for municipalities to undertake projects that improve water quality and protect natural resources and secure action on the Long Island Sound Restoration and Stewardship Act in Congress. Make your voice heard at the local, state and federal level. Our elected officials need to hear from you that protecting Long Island’s natural environment is a priority for you. Be A Good Egg: Our education campaign isn’t just a clever turn of phrase; it helps teach people of all ages about beach nesting bird species, simple precautions to help protect nesting sites and how to responsibly share
the beach. Follow Audubon New York for updates on social media, and like and spread the word on how to recognize and help protect nesting sites. Be involved: By protecting birds, we’re also safeguarding New York’s great natural heritage for future generations, preserving our shared quality of life and fostering a healthier environment for us all. Join a local Audubon chapter, put out the proper bird feeders for your area, learn about bird watching and citizen science programs… every effort adds up! Audubon New York’s successful stewardship programs, advocacy efforts and environmental education programs provide a powerful and practical solution. In collaboration with partners, volunteers, Audubon members and every level of government, Audubon New York is working to restore the health of Long Island in ways that help birds and people. When birds thrive, people and their communities prosper.

hances are the day of this publication, July 7, i.e., 7/7, is your lucky day. Why? Many people believe seven brings them luck, whether it’s because of the seven days of the week, seven colors in the rainbow, seven continents or even the “7” Mickey Mantle wore on his back. If you believe in lucky numbers, seven might give you the kind of confidence you need to say exactly the right thing in a job By Daniel Dunaief interview, to seek a date with a long-term love interest, or to swing at a fastball at just the right moment, sending the ball deep into the night.

What if a pitcher in a tight game, who is the seventh child in a family of seven and might have been born at 7:07, is pitching to a hitter, who grew up on 77 Main Street and who always bats seventh? Who would win? Taking a step back from the “7” sports quagmire, what is it about numbers that can make or break our confidence, that can inspire or deflate us? Even for those indifferent to theorems and patterns, numbers can be beautiful and comforting. They can create order in a chaotic world, offering support and structure in their patterns and predictability. There’s the alternating odds and evens. That’s a pattern that’s like looking at a checkerboard, with its alternating tiles. According to some news reports, zero presents a problem for some people because they are not sure whether it is odd or even and most odd/even discussions begin with “1” while evens begin with “2.” (Zero is an even number under the
standard mathematical definition.) Then there are those rules of numbers that can help in the prime versus non-prime consideration. If you’re looking at an odd number, how do you know whether it’s divisible by three? You add up the digits in the number and see if the sum is divisible by three. Take, for example, 4,197. The sum of four, one, nine and seven is 21, which means it’s divisible by three. But then there are those wellknown irrational numbers that provide memory challenges for schools. Some schools, on March 14 each year, hold a contest about the famous constant, pi, which is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. Students commit as many digits of pi as they can to memory. Most people recall the 3.14 part of pi, which is why those competitions are held on March 14, but some push themselves to memorize more than a hundred digits. Then there are those numbers that signal the beginning or the
end of something. The famous countdown to a rocket launch that carries with it the hope of finding something new, of taking humans somewhere we’ve never gone, or of exploring or seeing the Earth from a different perspective. Parents know the famous mantra, “I’m going to count to three,” before a potential liftoff of another kind. For the sports fanatics out there, numbers are the game within a game. For example: • How fast did he throw that pitch? • How many goals did he score in the World Cup? • How great was this player compared with another player? Numbers are sliced and diced to make predictions, reconsider greatness or understand a player’s potential. Perhaps the corollary to the question, “Would a rose by any other name smell as sweet?” should be, “Would a superstar with a different uniform number play as well?” The answer might depend on the date of the game.
Independence Day fireworks gone wrong
A
fter every July Fourth we hear about the sickening tally of those injured or maimed by illegal firecrackers and explosives that were fired off in the name of fun. We routinely say, “How idiotic. Why don’t they just leave the fireworks to the professionals and go watch the show someplace?” There are always places to see the artful displays, hear the raucous explosions and cheer together the red, white and blue. By Leah S. Dunaief If all else fails, there is the television or the computer screen. Do we have to injure ourselves to fully honor the actions of the colonists almost twoand-one-half centuries ago? This subject is of more than casual interest to my family. When my dad was growing up on an upstate New
Between you and me
York farm, one of nine children, a neighbor brought the family some explosive caps with which to properly celebrate Independence Day. The children gathered around a large boulder and cheered with each explosion, as my father’s favorite brother smashed the caps in turn with a rock he held in his hand. But one refused to go off. To make sure he was hitting the cap in exactly the right spot, he bent his head close to the obdurate explosive and carefully aimed his blow. This time it did explode and blew out his right eye. Needless to say, that was the end of that in my household. The trail of these stupid tragedies continues. When we first arrived here, on the beautiful North Shore of Suffolk from our Texas air force base, at the end of June, 47 years ago, my husband, who was an ophthalmologist, applied for hospital privileges at St. Charles in Port Jefferson. He was admitted to the ranks with the news that his first “on call” day would be on July 4. His first patient, waiting for him in the emergency room, was a teenage boy whose

eye had been destroyed by an Independence Day explosive. He tended to the boy, of course, but never got over the horror of that sight and was sickened by the memory every year. It had been more traumatic for him than the many cases he had treated during the Vietnam War. With these illegal explosives, brought in gleefully from distant states, we are to this day making war on ourselves. There is the story of the young visitor from Virginia in New York City, who was romping over the rocks in Central Park with his two buddies, when he stepped on a plastic bag of explosives that went off and destroyed his foot. There are seemingly unending stories of hands blown off, faces disfigured, house fires started, bystanders wounded and all manner of ugly consequences from fireworks across America. Some 230 wound up in emergency rooms at the latest count. When John Adams wrote a letter to his wife, Abigail, on July 4, 1776, envisioning a dazzling annual celebration of independence from Britain, he surely didn’t consider such carnage as part
of the party. Nor did he imagine the single horror that brought about what was probably the first city ordinance in America banning the possession or sale of fireworks within the city limits. It happened in Cleveland in 1908. A clerk in S.S. Kresge’s department store was showing a 4-year-old boy and his mother a “harmless” sparkler with which to celebrate the holiday when a spark flew into the nearby display of skyrockets, torpedoes and candles. The store was almost immediately engulfed in flames. Seven people died, including the little boy, and dozens more were injured as the store burned. The tragedy prompted the city council to act, and many more cities and states have outlawed explosives over the last century. But there are still states where the sale of explosives is legal, and the present concern is that a growing movement seems underway to relax some of the current legal restrictions. The Consumer Product Safety Commission, which regulates the sale of fireworks, reported that in addition to the many maimings from explosives 11 people died in 2014 alone. Why?
