Celebrating the holidays in town File photo

The Smithtown Landing United Methodist Church is only open to the public twice a year.

Christmas service welcomes all A historic Smithtown church will be opening its doors to all who wish to celebrate the holiday season. Smithtown Landing United Methodist Church will be holding a Christmas service Dec. 10 at 3 p.m. The church is only open to the public twice a year and is located at Landing Avenue and Oakside Road. The church was first organized in 1795, but the church structure was built in 1834 and dedicated that year in October. When the church was first built, it had only a center

aisle — upon entering, men would seat themselves on the left and women on the right. The names of the founders can still be seen among the headstones in the cemetery that surrounds the church. The area was known as Smithtown Landing and the church was affectionately called the “little church in the woods.” The service will be led by the Rev. Carole Paynter and accompanied by Donald Reinertsen on the pump organ. — Sara-Megan WaLSh

The holiday season is made brighter by celebrating the joy of the season with others. Here are some community events happening Dec. 7 to 14:

Kings Park

The Kings Park Chamber of Commerce invites all to celebrate the start of Hanukkah, the Jewish festival of lights, Dec. 10 at 11 a.m. A menorah lighting will be held in Veterans Plaza in front of the Kings Park branch of The Smithtown Library, located on Church Street.

Nesconset

The Nesconset Chamber of Commerce will be hosting its annual Christmas tree and menorah lighting ceremony Dec. 10

at 2 p.m. Santa Claus is expected to arrive along with Mrs. Clause via the Nesconset Fire Department. The Smithtown High School East choir will perform holiday favorites following the tree lighting. There will be free hot cocoa and cookies donated by Costo.

St. James

The St. James Chamber of Commerce will hold its annual menorah lighting Dec. 9 at 5:30 p.m. to celebrate the start of Hanukkah. The event will be held at the triangle between Lake Avenue, Moriches Road and Route 25A in St. James. There will be free goods for all who attend. —Sara-Megan WaLSh

St. Johnland assisted living facility proposed in Kings Park By Kevin Redding kevin@tbrnewsmedia.com The Society of St. Johnland in Kings Park hopes to continue its mission to help seniors in need by constructing a new assisted living facility aimed at Medicaid-eligible residents. The nonprofit nursing center has submitted an application to construct a two-story facility with 82 units and 100 beds in the footprint of an existing, dilapidated building on the north side of Sunken Meadow Road — a separate tax map parcel on the same property as St. Johnland nursing home. The proposed building will fulfill a need in the community for alternate living options for low-income seniors, according to a real estate attorney speaking on behalf of the project at the Nov. 30 Smithtown Town board meeting. J. Timothy Shea Jr., of Certilman Balin Adler & Hyman in Hauppauge, asked the board to consider granting the St. Johnland facility a special exception as its concept plan meets that zoning criteria. This approval would give the nonprofit the ability to use land in a district for a purpose other than what is generally permitted there, in this case an assisted living program on the same property as a nursing home. “Allowing for this special exception to take place, we would be able to service up to 100 local persons most likely for the assisted living and it’s possible that many of those residents will eventually move to the nursing

St. Johnland is also making efforts to implement ideas from staff members and residents into its design of the building’s facade to comply with local waterfront revitalization program standards, he added. “When we provided elevations of the proposed building to our staff, we received comments indicating they would like to have more of a historic type of architecture,” Shea said. “We are willing to do that

and will adjust our elevations accordingly.” Based on the feedback from the Kings Park Civic Association, the nonprofit has agreed to reduce square footage of the 76,696-square-foot site by approximately 8,000-square-feet to lessen its footprint; preserve an old chapel located to the east of where the facility will be; and provide the group with any building revisions moving forward for further review and comment. Shea said the site will be “a low traf-

fic generator” because although the facility would employ 70 new employees, they will work in three shifts, so there will be no more than 20 to 25 employees on site at a given time. Linda Henninger, the president of the Kings Park Civic Association said she and other members were in favor of it. “We think it’s a good project,” Henninger said. “A lot of residents from Kings Park and our vicinity — like Commack and Northport — utilize St. Johnland and this seems to be within their wheelhouse. We also liked that they’re not clear cutting woods for it. It seems like a win-win for the community and St. Johnland.” Mary Jean Weber, the chief executive officer of St. Johnland Nursing Center, which has been caring for Kings Parks’ needy since 1870, said the facility has been in planning for nearly two years. “I think this is the type of service that is really needed in Kings Park,” Weber said. “This is for the population that doesn’t require the [around-the-clock] medical care needed in a nursing facility but maybe cannot remain living at home any longer or have limited funds. For us, it’s a positive program that really helps with our care for the senior community.” St. Johnland is still awaiting determination on its application for special exception. The project’s construction costs have not been finalized yet.

KP schools to make $1.5M in tech, security upgrades By SaRa-MEgan WalSh sara@tbrnewsmedia.com Kings Park students are about to receive “a quantum leap forward” in technology for the first time in a decade, according to the school district. Superintendent Timothy Eagen announced the Kings Park Central School District received approval Nov. 29 of its Smart Schools Investment Plan to spend $1,454,202 on technology and security improvements. “The district has not made a major investment in technology in approximately 10 years,” Eagen said. “With this financial support from the state, I am ecstatic that we can finally begin to upgrade our bandwidth, infrastructure and network.” The 20-page plan approved by New York State Education Department, after an 18-month wait, outlines how $912,862 will be used to upgrade the district’s computer network. These improvements will increase the internet speed to 350 Mbps, in excess of the Federal Communications Commission’s minimum standard speed of 100 Mbps per 1,000 students. Other changes include new wiring at the high school, bringing Wi-Fi to all five schools and creating redundancy by having a second internet connection installed at R.J.O. Intermediate School. “We have lagged behind other school districts” said trustee Kevin Johnston, also a retired Kings Park teacher. “We had access to resources that we couldn’t utilize because we didn’t have the broadband available.” Many of the Kings Park schools currently

Kings Park high School will receive an upgrade to its internet speed and wiring, new mobile computer labs and exterior security lights as part of the improvements. have spotty or no available Wi-Fi connection, according to the superintendent, limiting interactive connectivity on mobile devices to personal cell phone data networks. The upgrades will create a filtered Wi-Fi connection at each of the buildings available for staff and student use. Eagen and Johnston both said they aren’t worried about an expanded wireless connection being abused by students on cellphones or tablets. “The one thing we have going for us in Kings Park is the cellular service is so poor,” Eagen said. “Our cellular service is

so poor I think students will want to be on our Wi-Fi.” There is $400,500 set aside for purchasing classroom technology for the students. The plan is to purchase 60 Dell desktops for the middle school computer lab in addition to purchasing 11 carts with 30 mobile devices each, possibly Chromebooks or Surface tablets, that will be distributed across the district as mobile computer labs. The school plans to install a combination of 50 interactive SMART boards and touchscreen TVs between the middle school and high school classrooms. Eagen

said he is leaning towards purchasing touchscreen TVs. “The benefit of a touchscreen TV is it doesn’t require a projector,” he said. “It’s another device that can go wrong and the bulbs are very expensive — they are $250 a piece.” In addition to providing a new way for teachers to give lessons, Johnston said the interactive classroom boards allow teachers to more easily connect with others across the state to learn best practices on teaching a particular subject or book. A fourth component of the plan is to invest $140,840 in security upgrades across the district by adding 19 security cameras, installing remote door buzzers for guards to allow access to each building and exterior security strobe lights at all five schools. “Currently, if you have a team on your backfield or your kids are out for recess and there’s an issue in the school, other than getting on the PA and broadcasting outside or using a walkie talkie, we have no way to let folks outside know there’s an emergency,” Eagen said. The new system will feature strobe lights and sound to alert people if there’s a possible safety threat such as an intruder or electrical storm with heavy winds and lightning. The full cost of the district’s Smart Schools Investment Plan will be covered by the state under the 2014 Smart Schools Bond Act, though the school will have to lay out funds initially and be reimbursed. The superintendent said the goal is to have all upgrades complete by June 2019.

Stony Brook WTC Wellness Program expands New one-stop clinic opens in Commack to provide care for 9/11 first responders By Rita J. Egan rita@tbrnewsmedia.com Accessing medical treatment on Long Island has become easier for 9/11 first responders. Stony Brook WTC Wellness Program celebrated the official opening of its new onestop health clinic in Commack Nov. 28. The program relocated from Islandia to the Stony Brook Medicine Advanced Specialty Care building, located at 500 Commack Road. The move allowed the program to expand from a monitoring facility into a 20,000-square-foot, integrative clinic where World Trade Center responders can receive more comprehensive medical treatment under one roof. Dr. Benjamin Luft, program director and principal investigator, said the clinic is dedicated to caring for approximately 10,000 patients suffering from illnesses after volunteering at Ground Zero after 9/11. He said the responders suffer from a wide variety of conditions and the new location will provide the medical staff more resources. Among the new services available will be blood testing and imaging, which weren’t available in Islandia and caused patients to have to go elsewhere. “This is ideal for the World Trade responder patient population, and the rea-

son why is these patients who have been so severely affected by the World Trade Center disaster have a compendium of various abnormalities and disorders which are directly related to 9/11,” Luft said. “These included diseases ranging from psychiatry diseases to respiratory and gastrointestinal problems, to cancer.” The doctor said the program has a research team dedicated to studying neurocognitive problems, autoimmune issues and cancer-related illness. The new Commack location has an in-house laboratory that will make accessing patients’ samples and processing them easier. He said many of the illnesses related to the disaster were not initially recognized, and the number of patients has grown approximately 8 to 10 percent each year since the monitoring clinic first opened on the Stony Brook University campus shortly after 9/11. The day of the Commack grand opening, the Stony Brook WTC Wellness Program honored John Feal, a first responder and founder of the Fealgood Foundation. A Nesconset resident and Commack native, he said having the clinic where he grew up is special to him. Feal and members of his organization worked tirelessly to get the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act

passed in Dec. 2010 and again in 2015. The act enables first responders, volunteers and survivors of the Sept. 11 attacks to receive health monitoring and financial aid. Luft said at first the program treated many patients who lacked medical insur-

ance coverage. “So when they got sick, they didn’t have health insurance or have someone to take care of their acute problems,” he said. “We established our clinic to do that at no additional costs to the patients.” Feal, who was a patient at the Islandia clinic and recently had his physical in Commack, said he was impressed with the new location. “The program is now a state-of-the-art facility that not only monitors you, but treats you and gives you top-notch medical care all in one facility,” Feal said. He said having a one-stop clinic is important to many, especially for those who have become too frail to travel. Aging is an issue as many are now in their mid-50s or older. “As we get further away from 9/11, the illnesses are getting worse,” Feal said. “One, because of age and, two, because with these illnesses, some latency periods and manifestations in the body take this long.” The first responder said it was humbling to be honored for his work Nov. 28. “We’re talking about human life, and I’m never going to apologize for anything I ever said or did, because at the end of the day I only care about helping those who are sick from 9/11,” Feal said. “And so many people are getting sick. It’s not ending anytime soon.”

Groups receive grants to restore, protect LI Sound By Kevin Redding kevin@tbrnewmedia.com

154794

The future of Long Island Sound is in very capable, and now well funded, hands. Federal and state officials gathered Dec. 4 in East Setauket to officially announce $2.04 million in grants to support 31 environmental projects by local governments and community groups mostly in New York State and Connecticut actively working to restore the health and ecosystem of Long Island Sound. Of the 15 New York-based projects — totaling $1.05 million in grants — nine of them are taking place across Long Island, including Salonga Wetland Advocates Network in Fort Salonga and Citizens Campaign Fund for the Environment in Huntington, Smithtown and Riverhead. This year’s recipients of the Long Island Sound Futures Fund — a collaborative effort between the Environmental Protection Agency and National Fish and Wildlife Foundation — were encouraged by a panel of guest speakers to continue efforts to monitor and improve water quality; upgrade on site septic systems for homeowners; protect vital habitats throughout the watershed; and engage other residents to protect the 110-mile estuary. “This fund is supporting and celebrating real-life solutions — grassroots-based solutions — that make a difference in our quality of life, in our quality of environment and the overall fabric of our community,” said Peter Lopez, the regional administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, to a room of grant recipients at the Childs Mansion on Shore Drive in East Setauket, overlooking the Sound. “We have this amazing resource in our backyard and we have to support it.” The Sound, which was designated an estuary of national significance in the 1980s, supports an estimated 81,000 jobs and activities surrounding it such as boating, fishing and recreational tourism, which generates around $9 billion a year for the region. Lopez stressed that community involvement is the key to its perseverance in the future. U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley), who has long fought for federal funding and support for the estuary, was in full agreement. “Since I got to Congress at the beginning of 2015, I’ve been watching all of you and your advocacy is why we’re here today,” Zeldin said. The congressman addressed members of the crowd whose phone calls, emails, social media blasts and trips to Washington, D.C., he said served to mobilize elected officials around the importance of the Sound and its watershed and boost the funding of the Long Island Sound program to $8 million in May. “I just want to say a huge thank you for what you do,” he said. “It’s your spirit and hard work that got us to this point. It’s important we’re making our impact right now. What will be our legacy in these years to ensure the water quality, quality of life, economy and environment of Long Island Sound is preserved and protected? Because of all of you, the legacy will be that in 2017, we all gathered to celebrate more than doubling the funding for [Long Island Sound].” The LISFF was started in 2005 by the Long Island Sound Study and has since invested $17 million in 380 projects, giving way to the opening of 157 miles of rivers and streams for fish passage and restoring more than 1,000 acres of critical habitat, according to Amanda Bassow, the Northeast region director of the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation. This year’s grants will reach more than 870,000 residents through environmental and conservation education programs, and will be matched by $3.3 million from its recipients. In New York, the $1.05 million in grant funds will be matched with $2.58 million from the grantees, resulting in $3.63 million in community conservation. One of the grantees, Mike Kaufman of Phillips Mill Pond Dam fish passage project in Smithtown, plans to restore the native migratory fish runs from Long Island Sound to the Nissequogue River for the first time in 300 years. “This is the final piece of the puzzle,” Kaufman said of the grant. “It’s an incredible, historic opportunity. We’re reversing 300 years of habitat destruction and these grants enable us to engineer the restoration.”

The boy photographed with FDR in Port Jeff in 1932 Randall Woodard, 97, reflects on meeting Roosevelt, a life and roots in the village, military service By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewsmedia.com They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but in one case, a picture is worth almost 100 years of history. On Dec. 7, 1941, 76 years ago to the day, then president of the United States, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, delivered his “day which will live in infamy” speech during a joint session of Congress in response to Japan’s attack on the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The address served as the precursor to the U.S. finally joining World War II and taking up the fight against the Axis powers. He went on to serve as president until his death in 1945, preventing him from completing his fourth term in office, a feat in itself, as no other American president has served more than two terms. In the summer of 1932 just before his first presidential campaign, Roosevelt, an avid sailor, made a recreational stop in Port Jefferson Harbor. At the time, Roosevelt was the governor of New York and the Democratic Party nominee for the general presidential election that fall. He defeated incumbent President Herbert Hoover to win the highest office in the land November 1932. During the visit, Roosevelt took a photo aboard a sailboat with two youngsters from Port Jeff, one of whom is still alive residing in the village. Randall Woodard was born Sept. 3, 1920, in his home on Prospect Street. His family has deep roots in Port Jefferson, though his ancestors can be traced back even further to Southold in 1664. “I wasn’t there that day,” Woodard quipped during a November visit to the Times Beacon Record News Media office in Setauket, accompanied by his youngest son, Warren, and Richard Olson, a longtime Port Jefferson School District history teacher who has since retired. Woodard’s father Grover was the school district manager in Port Jeff, and actually hired Earl L. Vandermeulen, who the high school was eventually named after. Mother Madeline worked in the elementary school under Edna Louise Spear, the eventual namesake of the same school. Though he said he didn’t meet any other presidents in his life, Woodard met Albert Einstein once, and his grandmother heard Abraham Lincoln give a speech in New York. Woodard went on to have two sons and a daughter, who were all raised in the Port Jeff house on Prospect Street until the 1970s. The photo of Woodard, his childhood friend Gilbert Kinner and the soon-to-be president of the United States is a cherished possession of the Woodard family. Warren joked there’s a framed copy hanging in every room of his house. Woodard said on the day he met Roosevelt that he and Kinner were sailing his family’s 12-foot mahogany vessel around Port Jefferson Harbor on a warm summer morning in June or July. At about 10 a.m., two or three seaplanes landed in the harbor and taxied over to the beach near the east end of the waterfront near the famous Bayles Dock. Woodard, who was 12 years old at the time, said he and Kin-

Below, Woodard and son Warren during a recent trip to Washington, D.C. ner noticed a large crowd gathering near the dock, so they decided to sail over and see what the commotion was all about. They approached the black yawl sailing craft tied to the dock with a man wearing a white sun hat seated in the cockpit. Woodard said he still remembers noticing the metal braces on Roosevelt’s legs and a pack of cigarettes on the seat next to him. “The whole waterfront of Port Jeff was people,” Woodard said. Roosevelt was waiting for his four sons, who were running late, to arrive to begin a vacation cruise. The Democratic National Convention had just selected him as the party’s nominee for the presidential election that fall, and it was too early to begin campaigning. While he waited for his sons to arrive, Roosevelt and the reporters milling in the vicinity suggested the candidate should be in a photo with the two boys. Woodard and Kinner boarded, and “Vote for Roosevelt” hats were placed on their heads to wear in the photo. Woodard recalled that Kinner took the hat off, tossed it in the cockpit and calmly said, “My father is a Republican.” Woodard said there was an even more memorable interaction from the meeting

when Roosevelt asked him, “How does the boat sail?” Young Randall responded, “I think I could take you.” He referred to the then-governor’s vessel as “badly designed,” with a laugh during the interview. He said eventually Roosevelt and the others took off sailing in the Long Island Sound. Woodard and his friend tried to keep up with Roosevelt for as long as they could until the soon-to-be president was out of sight. “We kids went to the movies for a week straight just to see ourselves on the Pathé News movies,” Woodard wrote in a 2004 account of the day. Woodard and his son Warren shared a story about seeing by chance a clip of 12-yearold Randall dancing on Roosevelt’s boat in a documentary about past presidents decades later. Warren said they purchased multiple copies of the documentary on DVD. Woodard’s life and interests would intersect with Roosevelt’s in other ways later in life. Daughter Tracy was diagnosed in 1949 with polio, which also famously afflicted Roosevelt. Woodard’s affinity for boating only grew after 1932, and he eventually went on to serve in the U.S. Navy, where Roosevelt

had previously served as the assistant secretary prior to his years as governor. The Woodards owned several sailboats and fishing boats through the years. In 1936, Randall and his older brothers, twins Martin and Merwin, finished tied for first among 2,000 other competitors worldwide for the Snipe Class International championship. Through the years he often competed in races and experienced more-than-modest levels of success. After graduating from Port Jefferson High School in 1938, Woodard attended The Citadel military college in South Carolina. “The war was on the horizon in Europe and a military college made sense at that time,” he wrote in 2004. He joked he and a high school friend went to Citadel because their grades were not good enough to attend the U.S. Naval or Coast Guard academies. “I was not a hero,” Woodard said. “If we didn’t have a Marine Corps we’d still be over there. I was in enough tight spots to know.” After graduating from The Citadel with a degree in civil engineering, he became a Seabee officer in the U.S. Naval Construction Battalions. The Seabees, as they were called — a play on “CB” for Construction Battalion — were deployed to Pearl Harbor in the aftermath of the Japanese attack to reconstruct damaged bulkheads, dredge the ocean floor to allow ships passage and assemble barges and causeways in preparation for an amphibious attack, according to Woodard. During his training prior to deployment while stationed in Rhode Island, Woodard was aboard the world’s largest sea tow, which was an experimental floating airfield slated for assembly in Alaska. The airfield was not needed, and broken-up pieces were used during the Normandy Invasion on D-Day. He was part of a mission headed to a series of islands in the Pacific near Japan in May 1944, weeks before the beaches were stormed in Normandy. Nine days after D-Day, aboard a craft carrying four barges Woodard was responsible for overseeing, the U.S. Marine Corps invaded Saipan, a Japanese-held island. Woodard and the Seabees contributed to the mission by using the barges to unload ammunition, gasoline and other supplies. One day a Japanese Zero aircraft flew low and attacked his flat steel barge with little options in the way of hiding places. He said he pulled out his handgun and fired two rounds at the aircraft, which eventually went down. “I probably missed, but the plane crashed into the side of a freighter,” he wrote in 2004. He said his barges survived for five weeks until the island was secure. After the victory over Japan, he spent six months at Navy Department Bureau of Yards and Docks in Washington, D.C., where he met Barbara Brown, whom he later married. Woodard said he remained in the Navy reserves for about 15 years. When he returned home, Woodard worked for years as a civil engineer. In the 1950s he was the resident engineer overseeing a series of contracts to construct the Northern State and Sunken Meadow parkways, and said he was responsible for the construction of all of the parkway overpasses in Nassau and Suffolk counties.

For 40 minutes each morning when Marion Bernholz, the owner of The Gift Corner in Mount Sinai, opens her shop she lugs out all the product she keeps on the front porch all by herself. She does it every day, hoping the colors and interesting items will flag down cars traveling on North Country Road. Thanksgiving day she was closed, but on Black Friday she put out her flags, signs, decorations, not expecting many customers at all, she said. Black Friday is perceived as a day for gaudy sales for the bigger stores with nationwide brands, or the Amazons of the world, though it has become just the appetizer for a weekend synonymous with shopping. Instead, people flooded Bernholz’s store the weekend after Thanksgiving, and the customers kept streaming in even after Black Friday was days passed. “We were busy on Friday, way busier than we had been since the bust, when the economy went down,” Bernholz said, beaming with excitement. “Wednesday was a spike. Friday was a major spike. It was so busy Saturday that people couldn’t find parking. There was a line out the door.” At Elements of Home, a home and gift shop in St. James less than 12 miles from Gift Corner, the situation was different. Owner Debbie Trenkner saw Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday float by with only a small bump in sales, she said. Though she advertised, Trenkner said that she only received a moderate boost in sales that weekend with only 27 people walking through her door on Black Friday, and only about 70 Saturday when she said she expected to see hundreds. “After speaking to other retailers or feeling through the grapevine, all major events this year, Mother’s Day, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, we’ve done half the amount we’ve done in the past,” she said. “People do not shop local. Those that do are your 50-and-over crowd who do not like to order online. Younger people these days they are so attached to their phone, it’s their lifeline, in my opinion.” The similar local stores had polar opposite experiences during one of the busiest shopping weekends of the holiday season, though businesses overall this past Small Business Saturday, an event first sponsored by American Express in 2010, did very well though they fell short of 2016 numbers in total. According to the National Federation of Independent Business, 108 million consumers spent $12.9 billion Nov. 25. Despite the slight dip from 2016, the data shows a much higher number of consumers are making the conscious decision to shop locally on the biggest spending date of the year for small businesses. Stacey Finkelstein, an associate professor of marketing at Stony Brook University, said in a phone interview she has used psychological and behavioral economics to inform people about marketing problems, and she said a battle between instant gratification and the desire to support local stores is being waged for today’s consumers. “Another tension for a lot of consumers who face this dilemma layered on top of this is this ethical quandary, which is ‘I want to support businesses that are consistent with my code of ethics and the values that I have as a consumer,’” Finkelstein said. That value-based sales pitch is important, especially when it comes to the services offered. Many local businesses surveyed after this Black Friday weekend across the North Shore agreed the services they provide, whether it’s free gift wrapping or the ability to make a custom product, or even the ability to offer hands-on help to customers trying to figure out what gift is best, are the types of factors that neither online nor most large stores can match. “I think the most important thing to do besides creating an emotional experience and offering, obviously, great service is to really think about the values of those consumers

Kings Park High School

Business smart

Kings Park High School’s DECA Business Club competed Nov. 17 at the Adelphi Apprentice Competition located on its Garden City campus with more than 200 students from other schools. Two of Kings Park’s students, Ryan Adell and Jordan Bookspan won first place with their team that was composed of other schools. The student teams represented a marketing firm hired by YVote to come up with a marketing campaign to reach and inspire 18-year-olds nationwide to vote regularly. Adell was the

team’s marketing manager of the first-place team. Their winning strategy was comprised of community youth leadership positioning with a social media contest in which students speak about their political concerns to a political representative. The first-place winners were given a mixed bag of goods valued at $100.

Accompsett Elementary School

Circus comes to Smithtown The National Circus Project came to Accompsett Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District during the week of Nov. 13 to work with the fourthgrade students. Sponsored by the school’s PTA, the National Circus Project held

week-long workshops with the students to teach circus skills. The program teaches patience, teamwork, confidence, self-discipline and good practice habits all while having fun. Students were ready to showcase their skills for their families and invited guests Nov. 17.

Acrobats, stilt walkers, plate spinners, jugglers and more showed off their balancing skills with a variety of objects. Clowns kept the audience entertained throughout the circus, while other students showcased their talents using the diabolo and devil sticks.

Mechanical Bulls make finals The Smithtown Robotics team, the Mechanical Bulls, competed in the sixth annual Half Hollow Hills Invitational Nov. 18 and 19. This was their first competition since last March, and it provided an opportunity to introduce new members to competition. Together with pre-rookie Team

6706 from Mineola and Team 2872 from The Wheatley School in Old Westbury, Smithtown’s team went from the lowest ranking, ninthseeded alliance to making the finals. The event was the kickoff to their global build-and-competition season, where the team receives a game challenge and has

six weeks to design, fabricate, wire, program and test a robot from scratch to compete in two regional competitions. They will be competing against teams from China, Chinese Taipei, Brazil, Croatia, New York, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Michigan.

Taste for books

In an effort to familiarize students with a variety of genres, fifthgraders at Accompsett Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District recently held a bistro book tasting event. Students enjoyed a three-course menu of book selections of various genres to taste or try out. They add-

ed descriptions to their menus and wrote reflections on their napkins in an ambiance enhanced with French music, checkered tablecloths, vases of flowers and soft candlelight. The activity provided an opportunity for students to familiarize themselves with new titles to add to their “to be read” lists.

Testimonials from north shore independent store owners smithtown

st. James

Elements of Home (home and gift shop) Owner Debbie Trenkner: “We offered specials, absolutely. We can’t do what big box stores do. We can’t do 50 percent off things and stuff like that. The way we view it is we are not in competition with big box stores. We do gift wrap for free. We give undivided attention. Everything goes up every year. Your rents, your utilities and your expenses go up. When you have decreases in the amount of traffic that goes in it’s inevitable. Why stay in business when you’re losing money? Soon there’s going to be a bunch of vacant buildings and Amazon is going to eat up all the property, create warehouses, and then they will be buying up all the property in the country and then we’ll all be owned by them. It’s a passion, small business. You work at it, you provide the best product. You’re relating a different kind of customer service that you don’t find anywhere else, and eventually you give up because it’s a losing battle. I can guarantee we will see more businesses close in Smithtown within a year’s time.”

Holiday Specials

Continued from page A9 in the local town and try and tap into those local values, such as if a town is really interested in sustainability, or ethically sourced food,” Finkelstein said. One of the biggest questions that small business owners ask is whether young people are still willing to shop local. The consensus is they are the “plugged-in” generation, but that fact can be harnessed to work in favor of small business owners. “Social issues are particularly important for a lot of millennials,” she said. “You tend to see a lot of that. I definitely don’t think

millennials should be written off ... I think what it’s about is that millennials have these ethically laden values where they want to buy things that are local, that are environmentally sustainable.” While many stores surveyed said this Black Friday weekend was “better than average” to “great,” there were several stores that did not see anywhere near the same boost in traffic. While the weather was nice, stores that didn’t meet expectations cited insufficient support from their local governments, or locations with little foot traffic, as their main deterrent. Read what other independent North Shore small business owners had to say on Black Friday at www.tbrnewsmedia.com.

4th World Comics (Comics, figurines and memorabilia) Manager Terence Fischette: “We didn’t do too much in sales. We did a lot of half-price items, took out a lot of stuff we wanted to get out of the back room. We don’t really compete with any of the big stores when it comes to Black Friday. We ended up doing a lot better than a normal Friday because people are out and in the shopping mood. The weekend was kind of normal, but it was one of the better Black Fridays that we’ve had in years. You see some regular customers, you see some new people. Comics are definitely more popular now, people see the sign and they pull over. It’s a lot more gifts and toys. Whenever a new superhero movie comes out you’ll see kids coming in who want the new Captain America or the new Thor book. Black Friday is more of just toys, T-shirts and stuff like that. We have our own holiday sale on Dec. 16 and that’s one of our biggest holiday sales of the year.”

St. James kicks off 2017 holiday season St. James residents gathered to celebrate the 30th annual Tree Lighting at Deepwells Farm County Park Dec. 3. Children of all ages were delighted as Santa Claus arrived, ringing his bell and taking a spot in front of the mansion, as photos were taken and he listened carefully to holiday wishes.

Carolers boosted spirits singing a medley of holiday tunes before the main event. A staggering Christmas tree decked with hundreds of lights was lit at 4:30 p.m. to herald the arrival of the 2017 holiday season. — Sara-Megan WalSh

SportS Kingsmen win tournament Since 2013, Kings Park has an annual chamber of commerce-sponsored tipoff tournament. This year, the Kingsmen, Commack, Huntington and Plainedge competed over the two-day event.

Game 1

Huntington beat Commack 62-58 Dec. 1. Blue Devils senior Mehki Harvey led with 17 points, while classmate Nat Amato added 16. Commack’s top players were senior Nick Guaglione and junior Aidan Keenan, who scored 24 and 21 points, respectively. They were the only players in double figures for the Cougars.

Game 2

Kings Park’s boys basketball won its fifth chamber of commerce tipoff tournament title with a win over huntington. Kingsmen head coach chris rube, below right, and huntington head coach Brian carey, below left, coach their teams from the sidelines.

Kings Park continues to honor former basketball coach Gene ‘Pop’ DeGraw By Jim Ferchland Gene “Pop” DeGraw was a fixture in the youth basketball scene in Kings Park, cultivating talented players and poised young men. Now in its fifth year, the Kingsmen hosted an annual tipoff tournament in memory of their former coach. Four schools — Kings Park, Huntington, Plainedge and Commack — played two games each over the two-day event Dec. 1 and 2. Kings Park head coach Chris Rube met DeGraw when he was 22 years old in his first year teaching in the district. Rube volunteered as an assistant coach on the varsity boys basketball team, where he got to know the seasoned coach. He remembers him as much more than a well-versed instructor. “He was always the epitome of class,” Rube said of DeGraw. “I admired how he was a devoted husband, father and grandfather. I’m a basketball coach after a teacher, and I’m a teacher after father and a husband. His grandson Michael McSloy was on the team. I remember talking to him and really understanding how special

Game 3

Commack took down Plainedge 60-41 in the consolation match.

Game 4

Kings Park edged out Huntington 5753, winning the tournament title for the third time in five years. Andrew Bianco, who was named tournament MVP, recorded 23 points and 12 rebounds. “He’s just tough as nails,” Kings Park head coach Chris Rube said of Bianco. With eight seconds left, Kings Park was up by two, 55-53, when freshman Jack Garside buried both free-throw attempts to seal the victory. Kings Park senior guard Zach Wolf scored 15 of his 18 points in the second half. He had three 3-pointers in the third quarter. “It was hard fought,” Rube said of the win over Huntington. “Huntington is pretty talented. Beating them was an achievement.”

Kings Park travels to Islip Dec. 7 for the first game of the regular season. Tipoff is scheduled for 5:45 p.m.

that moment was for him. Not only was he a great coach, but a better person.” Huntington head coach Brian Carey is a Kings Park alumnus who said he practically grew up with the former head coach. Carey said he admired how much DeGraw loved his players. “Pop was the perfect assistant — he knew the kids,” Carey said. “He knew me, we were both Kings Park guys. No one could have been more perfect for Kings Park basketball.” The Kingsmen won the Long Island championship title in 2007 when DeGraw was the assistant coach. Carey coached Kings Park for 10 years, from 1997 to 2006, leaving just before the Kingsmen put up their magical season. “When I got here at Kings Park, the team wasn’t doing so good,” said Carey, who has been coaching for 20 years and was inducted into the Kings Park athletics department hall of fame in 2003. “A few years before I was at Kings Park, the team won four or five games, but the players have been through a system by Gene DeGraw. He was a gentleman and he was the best at getting the kids to come together.” The now Huntington head coach gave DeGraw the unpaid assistant coach position at Kings Park, having known and graduated from high school with DeGraw’s cousin. The former assistant coach’s life was cut short due to a heart condition. Aside from being a coach, DeGraw was also a detective in the Suffolk County Police Department. Bill Denniston, a four-year Kings Park athletic director who was the ShorehamWading River athletic director back in 2013 said although he didn’t know DeGraw, he’s heard plenty of good stories. “From what I’ve heard, he was a wellrespected coach,” Denniston said. “It’s always nice to have this tournament to kick off the season in his honor.”

Kings Park easily outscored Plainedge 69-35. Senior Jason Hartglass and freshman Jack Garside each tallied 11 points for the Kingsmen. Senior Andrew Bianco added seven and grabbed 10 rebounds.

Republican Party votes to increase your taxes

Stock photo

Small independent retail stores need federal support to remain competitive in today’s market.

Small businesses need tax cuts too Despite President Donald Trump’s (R) repeated campaign promises to support small business, we can’t help but notice the Republicans’ tax bill seems to take care of major corporations while leaving small business owners short changed. There’s no denying the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, both the House and Senate versions, promise a tax break to large businesses, particularly by permanently reducing the corporate tax rate from 35 percent down to 20 percent. If the bill is passed, companies that sell products internationally will also be shifted to a new territorial system, where their taxes would be based largely on their U.S. sales. What concerns us is the impact these tax reforms will have on the local restaurants and independent retail shops that line the North Shore’s main streets. It’s growing tougher each day to compete in an international market against online retailers and big box stores, and protecting small businesses is vital to Long Island’s communities. More than 99 percent of New York’s economy is made up of small businesses, which is defined as a company or firm employing less than 500 people, according to U.S. Small Business Administration’s 2016 report. The largest segment of small business is retail. Together, these niche boutiques, restaurants, bars, hair salons, law offices and more provide jobs to roughly half of New York’s residents, according to the 2016 report, with nearly 20 percent of the state’s small businesses reporting fewer than 20 employees. When the tax bill reached the U.S. Senate Dec. 1, several last-minute changes were made, including a provision to allow many pass-through entities, such as partnerships, limited liability companies or sole proprietorships, to increase their income tax deduction to 20 percent from 17.4 percent. It’s a change anticipated to help small business owners. It was a politically motivated move by the Republican Party to win over two holdouts, Sens. Ron Johnson (R-Wisconsin) and Steve Daines (RMontana), whose votes were needed to pass the bill. The GOP’s 2016 party platform recognizes that small businesses and entrepreneurs play a vital role in our economy. “Their innovation drives improvement and forces long-established institutions to adapt or fade away,” the platform stated. This begs the question: Why was a tax deduction to their benefit an 11th-hour concession to win votes? Why is the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act focused on tax breaks and benefits for large corporations, not small businesses and the working middle-class citizens who own these businesses? Why are changes that would benefit small business owners temporary, like the ability to fully deduct business expenses, while the massive reduction in the corporate tax rate is permanent? As the House and Senate go back to the table to iron out differences in the bills, we are calling on Long Island’s congressional representatives to be forcefully proactive in ensuring every provision designed to aid small business makes the final cut. We recognize every member of Long Island’s congressional delegation has voted against the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, but for the financial health and well-being of Long Island’s downtown areas, we need you to do more.

Republicans just voted to raise your taxes — unless your name is Carl Icahn, Robert Mercer, or President Donald Trump, in which case, Merry Christmas! Sure, there may be some Long Islanders who won’t see their taxes increased by the Republican bill. They may get to munch temporarily a few peanuts swept their way by the Republican elephant. This to distract them from the mountains of cash going to big Republican donors who, as GOP politicians from Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-South Carolina) to U.S. Rep. Chris Collins (R-Clarence) of New York admitted, were the real sweethearts of this deal. Long Islanders will see a 10 to 20 percent drop in home values according to the Long Island Association, a business group. Financing for state and local needs will dry up. “Life as we know it is over on Long Island,” said Laureen Harris, president of The Association for a Better Long Island, another busi-

ness group. If you own a golf course or a private jet, the Republican tax bill is indeed a “beautiful” Christmas present. But if you pay state and local taxes, have a student loan or buy health insurance you’ll find a lump of coal in your stocking. Surprise! After 2025, even the pitiful middle-class tax breaks in the Republican plan disappear. Why is that? To finance the huge tax breaks for corporations, which are permanent. Some want to cleverly deflect attention from the Republican tax hike by complaining about New York state taxes. The fact is, for every dollar New Yorkers pay in federal taxes, they receive back 84 cents in federal expenditures. Meanwhile states like Mississippi and South Carolina receive far more than they pay in. The Republican tax plan makes this imbalance even worse. Could the Republicans be “punishing” New York for political reasons? It’s double taxation however you

spin it. Republicans were supposed to be the party of balanced budgets and fiscal responsibility. Instead their tax bill blows a huge hole in the deficit to give away a cornucopia of goodies to their wealthy donors. What hypocrisy. Guess who gets to pay for the after-party cleanup? You may find a hint next year when automatic Medicare cuts triggered by this tax bill go into effect. Next up on the Republican hit list: rolling back Medicare and Medicaid, and privatizing Social Security. This is what Trump means by “welfare reform.” “The driver of our debt is the structure of Social Security and Medicare for future beneficiaries,” proclaimed Marco Rubio (R-Florida), just before voting to drive the debt higher by $1 trillion or more on tax cuts for the rich. Even by politician standards the hypocrisy is breathtaking.

Shame on Tom Suozzi and his war machine U.S. 3rd District Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) has made it clear where he stands — on the side of endless war, unlimited military spending and working for the benefit of the military industrial complex here on Long Island. Suozzi recently voted to expand military spending by more than $100 billion dollars, more than double the increase requested by President Trump (R). He has praised Trump’s attack on a Syrian airbase and called for new sanctions on Iran, despite the fact that the U.S. government has

admitted that Iran is holding up its end of the nuclear deal. Suozzi refuses to call for the repeal of the Authorization for Use of Military Force, in which Congress gave the president a blank check to engage in military actions anywhere at anytime under the guise of the “war of terror.” At a recent town hall in Commack, Suozzi lamented American interventionism, but followed it up by saying as long as we need the oil, we will have to keep doing it in the name of “stability over chaos.” Of course, such immoral

Machiavellian thinking ignores the fact that U.S. actions cause far more chaos than stability. Now, he is planning to lead a meeting of military contractors on Long Island under the guise of a jobs program. There are many ways to produce jobs on Long Island, giving endless sums of money to the war machine is one of the least efficient and least ethical ways to do so. Congressman Suozzi should be ashamed of himself.

Zeldin has forgotten Jewish principles On Dec. 14, Steve Bannon will be headlining a high-end fundraiser for Congressman Lee Zeldin in New York City. Zeldin’s willingness to align himself with Bannon, the executive chairman of Breitbart News, which he has proclaimed is the “platform for the alt-right,” betrays the constituents of the 1st Congressional District. Our district is a diverse, multinational one, as Stony Brook University and Brookhaven National Laboratory are a draw for international students and researchers. It is precisely

this pluralistic society that the alt-right and Bannon use as a scapegoat. Zeldin campaigned as an “independent voice in Washington” but clearly has no qualms selling his principles to the highest bidder. Zeldin often speaks of his Jewish heritage but seems to have forgotten the Jewish principle of “tikkun olam,” repairing the world. His embrace of Bannon is contrary to the Jewish values he claims to embrace. Additionally, Zeldin’s support of building a wall and banning Muslims runs counter to the

passage from Leviticus, “The stranger who resides with you shall be to you as one of your citizens. You shall love each one as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.” Zeldin willingly forgets the long history of discrimination toward the Jewish people and aligns himself with Bannon, whose publication disseminates prejudicial views. Zeldin does not represent me or the values that I hold dear as an American Jew.

OpiniOn Through the looking glass with an automated phone line

“

Hello and thank you for calling this multibillion dollar organization. We value your business. Please push ‘1’ to speak with someone in English.” “Beep.” “Thank you for calling. Please push ‘1’ if you’d like our address. Push ‘2’ if you’d like to find a store near you. Push ‘3’ if you need to hear your latest balance. Push 27 raised to the two-thirds power if you’d like to speak with a customer service By Daniel Dunaief representative.” “Huh?” “I’m sorry, we didn’t get your response.” “I’m getting a calculator. OK, got it. Beep.” “We understand you’d like to speak with a customer service representative. Is that right? Push the last two digits of the year the Magna Carta was signed [1215, actually] or ‘2’ if that’s incorrect.”

D. None of the above

“Beep.” “Please hold for the next available operator. We are experiencing unusually high call volume, by which we mean that you’re calling. The average wait time is nine minutes. We’re going to put you on hold, play mind-altering holiday music, and suggest, in an electronic passive-aggressive way, that you fend for yourself because this call won’t go the way you’d like.” “What?” “We mean that we’ll get to your call as soon as we can.” “Uh huh.” “Frosty the snowman” … “Jingle bells, jingle bells” ... “All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth.” “Hey, Buddy, did you do your homework?” “I’m sorry, I didn’t get that. Did you still want to speak with a customer service representative? “Yes, I was talking to my son.” “If you want to stay on the line, say ‘yes’ in two other languages.” “‘Oui’ and ‘si’?” “So, you want to stay on the line?” “Yes!” “Why?” “I have some questions and would

like to speak with a customer service representative.” “We will get to your call as soon as we can. In the meantime, have you seen our most expensive product this holiday season? You and your son Buddy will love it.” “What? Wait. I thought you were a machine?” “Out of the depths of despair and into the realm of the impossible comes a product so wonderful and spectacular that we’re offering it only to those people who waited on line for hours to see ‘E.T.’ or ‘Star Wars.’” “Wait, how do you know about the long movie lines I used to wait on? Who are you?” “I’m dreaming of a white Christmas.” “Now you’re playing hold music?” “Dad? What’s the matter? Why are you holding the phone so tight?” “It’s OK, Buddy. I’m just trying to speak with someone at this awful corporation.” “Hi, this is Heidi. Can I get your first and last name?” “Hi, Heidi, my name is Dan Dunaief.” “Can you please spell that?” “Sure. Can you?” Silence.

“You don’t have much of a sense of humor, do you, Heidi?” “I have a great sense of humor. That wasn’t funny.” “Sorry. Please, don’t disconnect me. I just had a question about this product. You see, I’m not sure about the instructions.” “Oh, that’s not my specialty. If you hold on, I can connect you to our automated instruction line.” “No, please. I don’t like automated phone systems and would rather speak with a person. Can I speak with someone else at your company who knows about this product?” “The only other alternative is to send your request through the internet. We have an email address. Do you want that?’ “I have that. Can someone talk to me on the phone about this product?” “We don’t do that too much anymore. We have automated systems that are overseen by artificial intelligence programs. That’s your quickest route, route, route, route, route.” “Heidi?” “Yes?” “Are you real?” “Are you?”

I marvel many times at what the computer and the internet can do. For example, it is so much easier for me to write my column, rearranging words and whole paragraphs with just the click of the mouse and a couple of keys. Before computers, I practically drank whiteout. And as I am writing, if there is something to check or research, I can engage the internet, get the facts and continue the column with only that brief interruption. So much for the encyclopedias of my youth. But I still believe there will always be a place for pen and paper. There are instances where jotting something down quickly is easier and time saving compared to pulling out the computer, turning it on, finding the right file and typing in the info. And then there is my real problem with computers and the internet: addiction. Most people, especially parents with teens, would agree that electronic devices are addicting. It is difficult to get kids to put down their cellphones in favor of conversation. Researchers in Utah are even studying a spike in teen suicides there in the last five years

to see if there is a connection. Some 14 percent of the teens had recently lost privileges to use their electronics. Further there has been an increase in teen suicides from 2010 to 2015 across the nation, at the same time as social media use has surged. Teen suicides had declined in the two previous decades, according to data compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Much more research is required before deciding cause and affect here, but anonymous bullying, made possible by Facebook or Twitter and other social networking services, in addition to relationship problems thought to result from diminishing face-to-face interaction, need to be evaluated. It is not just kids who are so attached to their electronics. I chuckle when I see couples or whole families in restaurants, awaiting their food orders, completely absorbed in their cellphones. Then I feel sad for them. Conversation with people I enjoy is such a major part of life’s pleasures for me, and these phone addicts are missing that opportunity. I can only hope they are texting each other.

What did you mean, professor?

ere is an interesting bit of research about our friendly computers, one which some of us had already intuited. I will quote from an article in the Nov. 26 edition of The New York Times Sunday Business section: “[A] growing body of evidence shows that overall, college students learn less when they use computers or tablets during lectures. They also tend to earn By Leah S. Dunaief worse grades. The research is unequivocal: Laptops distract from learning, both for users and for those around them.” Wow! That means a victory for pen and paper. That means classrooms filled with students busily typing notes as the lecturer speaks are doing themselves a disservice. Ditto for those paying big bucks to attend seminars,

Between you and me

workshops and the like, who are shortchanging themselves. “In a series of experiments at Princeton and the University of California, Los Angeles, students were randomly assigned either laptops or pen and paper for note-taking at a lecture,” The Times reported. “Those who had used laptops had substantially worse understanding of the lecture, as measured by a standardized test, than those who did not.” Also those students who routinely used laptops in class did significantly less well at the end of the semester. Because the notes taken on laptops more closely resembled transcripts than lecture summaries, the theory goes that the lecturer’s words go straight to the students fingers, which are typing faster than they can write, without going through their brains first for processing. To take notes by hand, the listener has to abridge the lecturer’s words in order to keep up and so must consider the essence of what is being said. Enter the brain. Honestly, I am not a Luddite, looking to smash modern inventions and disavow progress. On the contrary,
