Newborns wear red hats to encourage heart health The American Heart Association, in connection with The Children’s Heart Foundation, distributed hand-knit baby hats for American Heart Month, February, at Stony Brook Children’s Hospital Jan. 31. Babies in the labor and delivery ward and pediatric intensive care unit at the hospital were visited by volunteers from the Stony Brook Stitchers who had made little red hats. The hats not only brought warmth to the newborns but also came with valuable information about heart health for parents. The event’s goal was to raise awareness about congenital heart defects and empower parents to live heart-healthy lives and encourage their children to do the same. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, out of almost 4 million annual births, about 1 percent, or 40,000, of babies will have a congenital heart defect. — RITA J.

TOWN
Groundhogs tell conflicting stories The snowflakes stopped falling moments before Brookhaven’s famous groundhog offered this year’s prediction — it was a good omen of what is to come. More than 100 residents cheered as the famed Town of Brookhaven groundhog, Holtsville Hal, did not see his shadow, an indicator that spring would come early this year. Conversely, Malverne Mel saw his shadow, calling for six more weeks of winter.
SARA-MEGAN WALSH
Their more famous relative, Punxsutawney Phil, agreed with Mel while perched on a stump in his home state of Pennsylvania. Staten Island Chuck went the way of Hal. Town Highway Superintendent Dan Losquadro (R) was keeping his fingers crossed for an early spring. “I’m happy,” he said. “We love winter here on Long Island. We love the kids to be able to play in the snow, but we don’t want winter to last any longer than it has to.” Hal made his 22nd annual Groundhog Day prediction at the Wildlife and Ecology Center Animal Preserve in Holtsville at 7:25 a.m., as per tradition, according to the master of ceremonies Wayne Carrington. Tradition says that if Hal — or, as he’s known in the town as a throwback to the classic Bill Murray movie “Groundhog Day,” the Great Prognosticator of Prognosticators — sees his shadow when he wakes from hibernation, the community is in for six more weeks of winter. “So he exited the ground, not a creature was stirring and not a shadow was found,” read Losquadro from a large scroll to the cheers of onlookers. “I cannot tell a lie, my prediction so accurate does not come from the sky. I saw what I saw in a blink of an eye.” Those who attended were treated to free hot cocoa to warm up and celebrate the good news. Both Losquadro and Carrington

groundhog today. Listen to the groundhog, please make it so I know what to wear.” For more information about Holtsville Hal, visit his website www.holtsvillehal.org. See page B26 for more photos from the Holtsville ecology site event.

EMMA CLARK LIBRARY
Children, above, enjoy last year’s Take Your Child to the Library Day at Emma S. Clark Memorial Library.
Take your child to the library For the third consecutive year, Emma S. Clark Memorial Library is participating in an international movement to raise awareness for libraries. On Thursday, Feb. 22, from 2 to 4 p.m., the library will be celebrating Take Your Child to the Library Day. According to the American Library Association, there are more public libraries than Starbucks in the United States. The event highlights how libraries are vital to the community as sources of education, entertainment and enrichment. It encourages parents to take full advantage of their local library and pass along that knowledge to their young ones. At Emma Clark, the day’s festivities include carnival games, face painting, temporary tattoos, balloon sculpting, crafts and more. It also will have everything else that the library offers on a daily basis: books, audio books, computers, tablets, movies, music, toys, puzzles, and so much more. Last year close to 350 people took part in the celebration in Setauket. Additionally, in keeping with the festivities of the special day, each new library card sign-up on Feb. 22 will be entered in a raffle. You’re never too young for a library card. Parents can get a card for their child as soon as they are born and immediately start enjoying the library’s resources, such as the Time for Baby program. There is no need to register for the event and all families are welcome. Meet up with friends — or make new ones — and share your love of libraries with the future generation. For more information, email kids@emmaclark.org, call 631-941-4080 ext. 123 or visit www.emmaclark.org. The Emma S. Clark Memorial Library, is located at 120 Main St., Setauket. — RITA J. EGAN

Stony Brook shopping center construction to begin in spring Developer decides not to proceed with low-nitrogen septic systems for Stony Brook Square shopping center BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM
STONY BROOK SQUARE WEBSITE
After three years of planning and changes, things are gearing up for the Stony Brook Square shopping center, which will be located near the Long Island Rail Road Station in Stony Brook on Route 25A. However, local environmentalists and legislators are disappointed the developer will not be installing low-nitrogen septic systems. While the developer, Parviz Farahzad, a former scientist with Brookhaven National Laboratory, was encouraged by Brookhaven Town and the Suffolk County Department of Health Services to install a low-nitrogen septic system, and said he originally hoped to, he has now opted to use a traditional waste system. In a letter dated Jan. 4, 2017, to Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R), SCDHS Commissioner James Tomarken said the Stony Brook Square property was proposed to be served by public water and on-site sewage, and advanced wastewater treatment was not required under the current Suffolk County Sanitary Construction will soon begin on the Stony Brook Square shopping center, rendering above.

TBR NEWS MEDIA
State Sen. Ken LaValle is sponsoring a bill with Assemblyman Fred Thiele that would change the way LIPA increases rates.
LaValle introduces bill creating more stipulations for LIPA rate increases BY ALEX PETROSKI ALEX@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM New York state Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) wants to make it more difficult for LIPA to increase rates for its customers. LaValle and Assemblyman Fred Thiele (I-Sag Harbor) introduced the Long Island Power Authority Rate Reform Act in January, a bill drafted to require the notfor-profit public utility’s board of trustees to “protect the economic interests of its ratepayers and the service area,” in addition to the interests of the utility company when considering a rate increase proposal, according to a joint press release from the lawmakers. The bill would also prevent LIPA from increasing rates to offset revenue losses associated with energy conservation efforts, like the installation of energyefficient appliances and light bulbs. If passed, it would require the board to hold public hearings within each county overseen by LIPA prior to finalizing rate plans. Currently, LIPA’s board is required to consider three criteria when a rate increase is proposed by the State Department of Public Service: sound fiscal operating practices, existing contractual obligations, and safe and adequate service, according to the press release. “While we have been working to keep Long Island affordable by implementing measures like the 2 percent property tax cap, LIPA approved the largest rate increase in its history,” LaValle said in a statement, citing a three-year rate increase approved by the board in 2015. “This measure will enable more community input by mandating a public hearing when considering rate changes. In addition, this legislation would provide the trustees with the tools necessary to reject rate increases that would cause additional financial burdens on Long Islanders.” Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) and Port Jefferson Village Mayor Margot Garant each voiced support for LaValle’s bill. “The record amount of investment in reliability, customer service and clean energy all come at a time when electric rates have remained roughly flat for a decade,” LIPA trustee Tom McAteer said in a statement
through spokesman Sid Nathan. “Customer satisfaction is significantly higher and customers see PSEG Long Island crews tree trimming and storm hardening the electric grid throughout the year. Those are the facts. Not opinion. The Reform Act is working for our customers.” The LIPA Reform Act was enacted in 2013 to revamp the utility’s operations, including empowering the board to decide on proposed rate increases. PSEG Long Island operates LIPA’s distribution systems. Elizabeth Flagler, media relations specialist, said in a statement the company is reviewing the legislation and will be monitoring its status. The proposed legislation comes as municipalities continue settlement discussions pertaining to lawsuits filed by Port Jeff Village and Port Jefferson School District — both in LaValle’s home district — in addition to the Town of Huntington and Northport-East Northport school district against LIPA to prevent the utility’s challenges to property value assessments at the Port Jeff and Northport plants. The result of the lawsuits could have a dramatic impact on Port Jeff Village and its school district, as both entities receive substantial property tax revenue as a host community of a LIPA power plant. The Port Jeff plant is currently used about 11 percent of the time, during periods of peak energy generation demand, an argument LIPA has used against the village’s public pleas to repower its plant and give LIPA more bang for its tax-assessment buck. A 2017 LIPA study predicted that by 2030 the Port Jeff plant might only be needed about 6 percent of the year, thanks in part to the emergence of energy efficient household appliances. In August 2016 New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) mandated that 50 percent of the state’s electricity come from renewable energy, such as wind and solar power, by 2030. Bruce Blower, a spokesman for LaValle, did not respond to an email asking if the proposed legislation was drafted with the lawsuits in mind, or if a settlement was imminent. Both the Senate and Assembly versions of the bill are in committee and would require passage by both houses and a signature from Cuomo prior to becoming law.

UNIVERSITY
Stony Brook University seeks new swim coach Search begins for a new swim and diving coach at university, SBU says unrelated to abuse allegations BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWMEDIA.COM
STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY
Stony Brook University’s athletics department is in search of a new women’s swimming and diving coaching staff, as the former head coach faces allegations of mental and emotional abuse made by former members of the team. After a five-year hiatus due to renovations of the school’s pool, the Division 1 team returned to competition in 2017 with two-time Jamaican Olympian Janelle Atkinson as head coach. In a Jan. 26 article on the website www.swimswam.com, a list of allegations of emotional and mental abuse at the hands of Atkinson was attributed to former team member Arianna Rodriguez. According to the site, the allegations were corroborated by at least one other teammate, even though no other swimmer was named in the article, and shortly after posting, multiple members of the Fairfield University swim team, which Atkinson coached in the past, reached out to the website saying they had similar experiences with the coach. Tess Stepakoff, a former team member and managing editor of SBU’s student newspaper, The Statesman, published an editorial Jan. 28 on the paper’s website alleging emotional and mental abuse while
Stony Brook University women’s swimming and diving team’s head coach faces allegations of mental and emotional abuse. a team member. She said despite the initial excitement of the team’s return, as the 2017 season drew to a close, the roster dropped from 13 swimmers to six. In Stepakoff’s editorial she wrote that it was a dream for her to join the Division 1 swim team, but her experience soon turned into a nightmare when she said Atkinson broke the team members’ trust and spirits. “We were told that we were weak, that we were not enough, and we were not trying,” Stepakoff wrote. “We were cursed at and screamed at during every practice for
months. As our physical and mental health declined, we were told to get over it.” In the editorial, Stepakoff said if a team member missed practice for injuries or illnesses there was the potential of losing their spot on the swimming and diving team. She said the teammates and their families filed complaints, made phone calls and had meetings with the athletics department to discuss the alleged abuses. According to the Stony Brook Athletics website, compliance with NCAA, America East Conference and university rules and reg-
ulations is a part of its mission. As a member of the NCAA, SBU is responsible for the actions of its coaches, student-athletes, faculty and staff, alumni and friends of the program. Atkinson and assistant coach Jordan Bowen are no longer listed on the SBU athletics website as part of the coaching staff. No allegations have been made against Bowen. Lauren Sheprow, a spokeswoman for the university, said SBU could not comment on the allegations as it does not discuss personnel issues but confirmed the athletics department is looking for new coaches. “Athletics decided to make a change in the leadership of the swimming and diving program and will initiate a national search to identify a new coach to lead and grow the program,” she said in an email. In her editorial, Stepakoff said that Atkinson’s past employers, Fairfield University and University of Connecticut athletics departments, did not provide reasons as to why the coach’s contracts were not renewed. “These colleges were able to get away without any bad press, but now Stony Brook does not have that option because we, past and present Stony Brook swimmers, decided to fight back publicly,” Stepakoff wrote. Atkinson, Rodriguez, Stepakoff and other members of the team did not return messages for comments.

Fashion for a cause
The Ward Melville High School Parent Teacher Student Association announced that its annual Senior Prom Fashion Show was a great success which will enable the organization to award more scholarships at the end of the school year than last year. The fundraiser was held Jan. 25 at Watermill in Smithtown, where nearly 300 guests enjoyed the fashion show and basket raffles. The fashion show featured 195 seniors from the high school who volunteered to model prom fashions loaned to them for the evening by Merrily Couture and Torontos Tuxedos, both of Mount Sinai. The girls had their hair styled by various local salons: Richard Salon of Smithtown,
Tapestry Salon & Spa of Mount Sinai and Centereach, Symmetry Salon of Stony Brook, Sivana Salon of St. James and Finale Hair of East Setauket. During the evening, members of the WMHS chamber orchestra provided an eclectic mix of music. Seniors Ben Gitelson and Megan Kuhnel were the emcees for the evening. All monies raised at this event will go directly to PTSA senior scholarships. Last year, the PTSA was able to award 44 scholarships to graduating seniors. This year it earned enough to award an unprecedented 73 scholarships. Scholarships will be presented by the PTSA at Senior Awards Night in June.

HISTORY CLOSE AT HAND
The 1777 villains and traitors of Setauket BY BEVERLY C. TYLER Following the Battle of Setauket, Loyalist Lt. Col. Richard Hewlett, who successfully defended the fort at the Presbyterian Church against 150 Continental Army soldiers under the command of Patriot Gen. Samuel Parsons, wrote a letter to New York Royal Gov. Gen. William Tryon. It was received by Tryon in Manhattan Sept. 3, 1777, detailing some of his observations concerning the battle and some of the men of Setauket whom he considered to be “villains … and traitors.” “Sir, I take the Liberty to give You an Account of the Behaviour of some of the Inhabitants of this County when lately visited by the Rebels, that Your Excellency may have an Idea what kind of Subjects many of them are. “Our Hospital was at some Distance from the Works — as there was not a convenient House near —When we were attack’d by the Rebels — A Party of them was sent to it — those Sick who were able, attempting to make their Escape — were fir’d at.” Hewlett specifically named Jonathan Thompson, who was president of the Brookhaven Town Trustees (1769-76), and his son Samuel Thompson, a town commissioner (1773-74), and detailed their actions. The Thompsons lived on North Country Road in Setauket and were both officers in Patriot militias in 1775, before

the British took control of Long Island. Their home is today one of most historic homes on Long Island, the Thompson House, located at 91 North Country Road, Setauket, and is now owned by The Ward Melville Heritage Organization. Hewlett writes, “Jonathan Thompson who lives next to the Hospital, seeing which Way they ran, Call’d out to the Rebels ‘here here they run’ pointing with his Hand the Way they went. Samuel Thompson Son of the above at the same Time endeavour’d to intimidate the Inhabitants — By telling them — Our Fort had surrendered — that the Rebels intended staying two or three Days — and had a twenty Gun Ship and Number of Privateers in the Sound — Stories well calculated to prevent our having Assistance.” The letter then describes the continuing “rebel” attitudes of many in Setauket, ending with a short report he had neglected to include in his last letter to Tryon. “Men of this ungenerous Stamp endeavor further by the sly underhand Methods to defraud Government. Their Young Men go over to Connecticut and enter the Rebel Service while their Fathers and Friends take Mortgages on their Estates — and secure in the Oath of Fidelity — hug themselves when they think they have sav’d their Property.

Degree I am well convinc’d. The late Party that came over rob’d only me and my Officers Doctr. PUNDERSON & Mr. HUBBARD of our Horses — they must have been particularly pointed out to them as they made great Inquiry after a fine Horse of Captn. ALLISONs on which one of our Men made his Escape that Morning. I neglected mentioning in my late Letter what Equipment the Rebels came over in — it consisted of six Sloops, 26 Whale Boats with other small Craft.” Hewlett reported what he had discovered about another Setauket resident. This rebel, the husband of Anna Smith Strong and a town trustee from 1767 to 1777 had just recently been replaced on the Brookhaven Town board, along with other Patriotleaning trustees, by residents loyal to King George III. “I have this Instant while writing the following authentic Information lodg’d against a Justice Selah Strong by a Gentleman from Connecticut — that he wrote to Genl. Parsons there were a Number of Vessels collecting Forage at Southold — Guarded by a fourteen Gun Schooner and fifty Men on Shore under the Command of Captn. Raymond — who might easily be surpris’d. “That he secreted a Deserter three Weeks who went by the Name of BOYD — that he has repeatedly sent Intelligence to the Rebels in Connecticut of the Situation of the Troops in this Place by John and Cornelius Clark. This very Mr. Strong has pretended to be our Friend — and several Times given Information of the last nam’d Persons being over — but not untill they were gone. What Security can Government receive — while there are such Villains ready to stab her in secret. “That Success may attend your Excellency’s Arms and all Traitors be discover’d is the sincere Wish of — Your most oblig’d humble Servt. Richard HEWLETT L.C.” Hewlett’s letter, in the University of Michigan, William L. Clements Library, Sir Henry Clinton Papers, helps confirm Selah Strong’s activity as a spy for Gen.
Lt. Col. Richard Hewlett’s sword belt plate, above, circa 1778 Washington a full year before the Culper Spy Ring began operations under Abraham Woodhull. It also ties in directly to the efforts of Benjamin Tallmadge, at the time second in command to intelligence chief Gen. Charles Scott, and to Caleb Brewster, who by this time was already carrying spy messages from Washington spy John Clark across Long Island Sound to Fairfield, Connecticut, and through Tallmadge to Washington’s headquarters. The Hewlett letter also became one of the factors that led to Strong’s arrest and imprisonment in New York City as reported by the Jan. 3, 1778, issue of Rivington’s Royalist Gazette. Beverly C. Tyler is Three Village Historical Society historian and author of books available from the society at 93 North Country Road, Setauket. For more information, call 631-751-3730 or visit www.tvhs.org.

Patriots battle for top League I spot
BY JIM FERCHLAND Junior Ray Grabowski was attacking the basket at will, leading the charge for Ward Melville with 24 points.
His counterparts Brendan Martin and Robert Soto each contributed 13 points in a comfortable 67-46 road win over Sachem North Feb. 6. The Patriots advance to 10-3 in League I while Sachem North falls to the very bottom of League I at 1-12. Ward Melville and Longwood sit in the No. 2 spot, one win behind Brentwood (11-2) in first place. “League I is an absolute jungle,” Ward Melville head coach Alex Piccirillo said. “Any time you can go on the road and win, it’s amazing. We work hard. We planned for this. That’s what we do.” Grabowski said he felt pretty good with his offensive game. He made three 3-pointers and six field goals. He also made seven trips to the foul line. “I was hitting shots when I was open,” Grabowski said. “I realized right away that I was bigger than every single one of those kids and took them to the hoop every single time.” At the end of the first half, Ward Melville was up 24-18. The Patriots poured it in from outside the perimeter in the second half, knocking down seven 3-pointers. They outscored the Flaming arrows 43-28 in the final 16 minutes. “We were able to push the ball more and gets the shots that we wanted,” Piccirillo said, noting his team eventually found the pace of play it’s accustomed to. “We did a much better job in the second half.” Without 6-foot, 9-inch leading scorer Alex Sobel, out with an ankle injury since
Jan. 26, the team hasn’t seemed to miss a beat, going 2-1 in the last three games. “We just play the same way,” Piccirillo said. “It’s a team game. We continue to do what we do. We’re going to rebound, defend, box out and we’re going be physical.” Ward Melville’s point guard Martin only scored two points in the first half, but found his sweet spot in the second, also knocking down three triples. “My teammates and my coaches told me to keep on shooting it,” Martin said. “I came out and made three in a row, so it felt
pretty good.” Even with the team in good standing without Sobel, Martin said he hopes to be competing alongside his comrade again this season. “Sobel is a Top 5 player in the county,” he said. “We miss him a lot, and hopefully we’ll have him back before the playoffs.” Sachem North junior Bradley Anacreon lead the Flaming arrows with 15 points. He was the only player in double figures. Ward Melville is scheduled to play at home against Sachem East Feb. 9 at 6:15 p.m.

Historic Home Charm H
istoric residential buildings and neighborhoods have a certain “je ne sais quoi” that appeals to our real estate dreams.
You’ve seen historical homes on movies and TV. There is something about the architecture, the brick and the tree-lined streets that has us mentally moving in our furniture and imagining bringing groceries into a gorgeous, light-filled space. However, our imaginations have a way of glossing over th less glamorous aspects of historic living. If you are considering life in a historically registered abode, reflect on the following lifestyle features bfore signing on the dotted line. HIDDEN EXPENSES Have you looked into what the real estate taxes are for 2018 Greenshoot Media
your coveted historic home? What about home insurance rates? Both can be automatically high and are above and beyond the sticker price of the home. It is important to carefully go over your finances to ensure you cannot only afford to purchase the home but to keep it. History costs. REPAIRS Having to make repairs to any home is unpleasant, but if your building or home has been designated a landmark or holds a place on a historic register, it can be a logistical nightmare. Many city landmark commissions require tenants to preserve the historic look of a home or building by using as many historically accurate materials as possible, which can get expensive very quickly.
LACK OF MODERN CONVENIENCES Think central air conditioning. Think small closets. Think pre-war co-op with no elevator. On a beautiful spring day, it’s
easy to think, “Oh, this place is definitely worth the sacrifice,” but life isn’t perfect and day-today living is often led through many challenges. There may be less glamor-
ous parts of “living historically” that you are overlooking. Check in with others who have made homes in historical houses. Hearing stories from them can sway your decision. ©99106

Trump foxes in the henhouse TBR News Media
Suffolk schools need good partners There’s a lot of talk about public-private partnerships at all levels of government. If our state officials can strike a deal to benefit New York’s inmates, we think it’s time to negotiate for the benefit of our collective future — Suffolk County students. New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision announced a deal with a private company, JPay, to provide free tablets to approximately 51,000 state prisoners. JPay is a Miamibased company that provides technology and services to help the incarcerated stay connected with people outside prison. The state prisoners will be able to read e-books, listen to music and even have family send money back to them. “The decision by New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision to allow inmates to be provided free tablets is a slap in the face and an insult to every hardworking, law-abiding, taxpaying family across New York State that struggles to provide these same tablets and other school supplies for their children,” said state Assemblyman Dean Murray (R-East Patchogue). We have to agree. To be clear, helping incarcerated citizens develop tools for success upon their release is a worthwhile endeavor for both the individuals and the society they hope to assimilate back into at the conclusion of their sentence. However, if such a deal can be struck for those in jail, we’d like to see the New York State Department of Education at least attempt to negotiate a private-public partnership with technology manufacturers or educational software providers to see if a similar arrangement can be made. It’s no secret that many Suffolk County teachers wind up purchasing basic supplies — crayons, construction paper, glue, markers, calculators and other supplies — for their classrooms out of their own pockets. If a penny of funding for basic staples is coming from teachers’ pockets, more expensive, big-ticket items must also be a problem, despite the passage of the Smart Schools Bond Act in 2014, which was enacted for the purpose of updating technology in schools. Kings Park High School announced it received approval for its state technology initiative in November 2017, one of the first districts on Long Island to do so. It is the first time the district can afford major technological upgrades in 10 years. Let that sink in — the computers, networks and internet capabilities our students rely on are more than a decade old. Suffolk County’s public schools educate more than 235,000 students from kindergarten through 12th grade, according to the New York State Department of Education’s figures for the 2016-17 school year. While this is five times more than our state prisoners, it should not be perceived as impossible. We’d like to see the state education department and our school districts get creative in finding solutions to budgetary problems. School budget season is getting underway and finding and negotiating publicprivate partnerships with some of the large businesses in their backyard could be the solution taxpayers are looking for.

I won’t comment further on the bilious rambling diatribe caricaturing Democrats and his bêtes noires — professors — that make up 97 percent of Mr. George Altemose’s letter in The Village Times Herald Jan. 25 edition [Plans to impeach Trump are flawed], and focus on the last 3 percent, “President Trump is doing a great job, and the American people know it.” Of course, we know no such thing. Trump gets his base support of 36 to 38 percent, but more than 50 percent disapprove of his policies — rising to the 80s on environment, Medicaid, etc.
He remains a bait-and-switch con man — see his recent flimflam moves on DACA. You have to be a Koch, a Mercer or a Steve Wynn billionaire to enjoy the new tax law. Trump, as usual, lied when he said, “It will cost me a fortune” — just the lastminute real estate addendum that bought Sen. Bob Corker’s vote will net Trump tens of millions a year, and he makes out like a bandit elsewhere. The top 1 percent will net $100 billion more a year, while the middle class gets crumbs. Just wait for the cuts to Medicare and Social Security that Paul Ryan and
Mitch McConnell are licking their chops over. The law is so bad for Long Island that, after counting heads, Speaker Ryan let Republicans Peter King and Lee Zeldin cover their posteriors with “no” votes. Every Trump appointee is a “fox in the henhouse” type, bent on shredding the safety nets on health care, worker safety, clean air and water, public land, consumer protection, and on and on. Then there are the shameless attacks on the press, the rule of law, and truth itself.
Arnold Wishnia Setauket
Romaine urges against drilling Dear Department of the Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke: Recently you announced the National Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Leasing Program that calls for drilling in the Atlantic Ocean, off the Alaskan Coast, and in the Pacific Ocean. Two of the potential sites are in the North Atlantic region, which encompasses Long Island. Brookhaven Town has the largest coastline of any town on Long Island with three distinct coastal waters: ocean, bay, and sound. As town supervisor, I do not support drilling in waters off our coastline. Like most Americans, I am concerned about the huge risks offshore drilling carries. The Long Island coastline supports nearly 350,000 jobs
and generates millions of dollars through tourism, fishing and other industries. I am deeply concerned not only with the damage to tourism but also the potential environmental harm to Fire Island, a deeply important natural island in the Town of Brookhaven, as well as the potential damage to our marine life and water quality here on Long Island. This proposal came just as the 9-cent per oil barrel tax to fund emergency cleanup of oil spills expired. The tax, which was renewed in 2005 as part of the Energy Policy Act, expired and there is no congressional plan to extend this tax, rendering ocean drilling riskier than ever. In addition, the Trump
administration has announced plans to roll back regulatory protections for deepwater drilling. These regulations deal with safety checks and equipment standards on oil rigs. This will only increase the risk to our coastline from ocean drilling for oil and gas. I urge you to exempt New York from offshore drilling and further request that your department takes a deeper look into the potentials that presently exist in renewable energies like solar and wind as opposed to our current reliance on coal, oil and natural gas.
Edward Romaine Supervisor Town of Brookhaven
Be the change you want to see Recently, I was given the opportunity to reach inside myself and live out those qualities that I thought made America great and makes Americans human: compassion, love, empathy, joy, respect, integrity, humility and courage. I had the opportunity to kick off the Town of Brookhaven bucket challenge campaign, putting together emergency cleanup buckets for those whose lives are destroyed by natural disasters in our country. Then we had the Women’s March rally in Port Jefferson Station, showing what
democracy looks like, featuring women standing up and taking their share of responsibility for this country. We also started our sixth annual flash mob campaign to stand up against abuse/violence against women and girls. I am grateful that I’m given these opportunities to be who I’m meant to be, and I think that’s what this country is all about. Wait, you couldn’t get involved because you’re too busy working, paying bills, worrying that your parents are going to lose their Medicare or if your
children and family will have health care or can even afford a health crisis? Or how you will afford to send your child to college? Or how you will pay your mortgage given this new tax “cut?” Or if your pension and Social Security will be there when you need it? All while the billionaires and corporations live on easy street. Is that what we’re here for? Who are we? We can do better.

OPINION
Superheroes are transformed into lightning rods
P
eople spend millions of dollars each year to find compatible friends and dates. The dating sites, the self-help books and magazines and the life coaches ask copious questions about our likes and dislikes and what we need around us. Maybe they are missing a key question that can reveal important yet hard-todescribe details about how we feel about ourselves and the world. That question relates to our feelings for lightning rod figures. Let’s start By Daniel Dunaief with Tom Brady, who just lost his third Super Bowl last Sunday, despite a heroic effort. The quarterback, who has won five other Super Bowls, is a
D. None of the above
legend, is extraordinarily successful and has one of the most impressive résumés of anyone in the game. Indeed, even people who know nothing about football — and I have a foot in that camp — know who he is and have an awareness of his remarkable success. In a country that celebrates victories, however, he doesn’t seem to be high on the national likability scale. I’m sure there are plenty of Patriots fans who disagree and think the world loves their superhero. Sorry, but I’m sure you can find the Brady haters on the internet. Anyway, maybe what causes them to dislike the superstar is the spectacular and well-earned selfconfidence. Maybe it’s the fairy tale life. Then again, isn’t that what we all buy into when we watch Disney movies? Doesn’t his name, Tom Brady, suggests some kind of Disney superhero, who saves the day with perfectly placed passes despite defenses bearing down on him? Then again, maybe, for some his
friendship with Donald Trump is problematic. The president has become an important compatibility filter as well. It’s hard to imagine two people agreeing to disagree calmly about a president who some believe has either saved us from the likes of Hillary Clinton or has created new and deep fault lines in the country. Then there are those people who seem to fall into and out of favor. Watching the movie “Darkest Hour,” it’s clear that other politicians didn’t see Winston Churchill as a superhero whose destiny was to lead the British nation through one of its most challenging crises. He was the right man at the right time for an impossible job, facing what seemed like insurmountable odds. And yet, despite his cigar-chomping, nation-inspiring heroics, it was bye, bye Winston almost immediately after World War II ended. The same could be said of America’s mayor, Rudy Giuliani. He wasn’t
exactly a legend in New York before Sept. 11, 2001, as he seemed to pick fights with everyone and anyone. And then, after 9/11, he somehow struck just the right balance for a nation in mourning, offering sympathy and support while remaining proud of the country and defiant in the face of the attack. After he left office, the bloom came off that rose quickly as well. Then there’s George W. Bush — or “43,” if you prefer. Many people couldn’t stand him when he was in office, with his nuke-u-lar (for nuclear), his snickering and his parodyable speech patterns. And yet, these days, his image and his reputation have made a comeback, particularly today as common ground seems to be disappearing under the feet of the two major political parties. Maybe these dating sites shouldn’t ask your hobbies, religious preferences or favorite foods. Instead, they should ask what you think of Tom Brady, the current U.S. president and the wartime prime minister of England.
Love is in the air: Happy Valentine’s Day!
H
ere are some sentiments about that undefinable emotion: Love. Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointlife has By Leah S. Dunaief ments thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or
Between you and me
laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colors seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there is no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby.

Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life. Bob Marley Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. Lao Tzu

There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our full potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life. John Lennon I heard what you said. I’m not the silly romantic that you think. I don’t want the heavens or the shooting stars. I don’t want gemstones or gold. I have those things already. I want … a steady hand. A kind soul. I want to fall asleep, and wake, knowing my heart is safe. I want to love and be loved. Shana Abé
