Before rejoining the board in 2012, he had served on the Three Village school board from 1994-2006. When he and his wife moved to Three Village 46 years ago, he said, it was because of the quality of the schools. After 18 years of board service, it is “fulfilling to have had an impact on the educational programs,” he said. Bavlnka, who has served on the board since 2011, said she’s excited and particularly pleased with the positive community engagement. With the goal of fostering communication and interaction between parents and Three Village faculty and administrators, Bavlnka has maintained the Facebook page, Three Village Connection, since 2013. She said she is proud to see that it has been a success.

Three Village will enter into a new contract with Suffolk Transportation Service Inc., the bus company that currently provides student transportation to and from school, field trips and athletic events. While contracts between school districts and bus companies can be extended at a rate increase equal to the consumer price index, if both parties agree, the CPI has been low, and Suffolk Transportation did not want an extension of the old contract, said Jeff Carlson, assistant superintendent for business services.

The district will extend its contract with Acme Bus Corp., which provides mini-bus service, without a rate increase. Following the resignation of the district’s treasurer, who will be attending graduate school, the administration has decided not to refill the position. Instead, it will assign treasurer duties to another staff member and issue a $10,000 a year stipend. This will save the district $70,000, Carlson said.

UNIVERSITY ANNA MARIA AMICUCCI

Stony Brook University Hospital nurses and EMS workers held an informational picket May 16. One of their requests is for the hospital to increase pay.

Hospital employees seek better pay, benefits Some employees at a local hospital are tired of tightening their belts. Approximately 75 Stony Brook University Hospital nurses and EMS workers represented by the New York State Public Employees Federation held an informational picket and press conference May 16. The goal was to inform the community about a severe long-term shortage of health care workers at the hospital, high medical staff turnover and pay inequity. Before the rally, PEF President Wayne Spence said the organization represents more than 2,000 nurses and EMS workers at SBU hospital. “My members have been very patient in trying to get parity or close to parity with surrounding hospitals,” Spence said. He said the hospital is a level-one trauma center transporting patients from hospitals where staff members make more than the average SBU worker. Nurses at St. Charles Hospital make $3,500 more per year, Southside Hospital in Bay Shore about $9,500 and Huntington roughly $11,000 more, according to Spence. Even with state benefits, Spence said SBU health care workers’ compensation isn’t equal to surrounding private hospitals. According to the federation president, other institutions compensate employees to go back to school to achieve higher degrees and offer certain days off around holidays. A Stony Brook nurse can work three to five years without having off Christmas Day, he said. Spence said many rely on working overtime to make up the difference in salary and at times they are not able to break for meals, adding that medical staff working without a break can lead to crucial errors, such as making a mistake in medicine dosage. Many long-term employees are asking themselves why they are staying with Stony Brook. “There was once a time where you stayed with the state system for the state pension,” Spence said. “But guess what? Northwell and other unions have now offered comparable compensation and fringe benefits that can now be comparable to the state. So, the state is not competing anymore.” Paramedic Jason Schmidt said he independently compared paramedic salaries to other institutions like Northwell Health’s hospitals

and found many emergency workers can make as much as $20,000 per year more than SBU workers. While Schmidt said it’s always been known that one can’t get rich working for state institutions, he said with health insurance costs increasing and pay freezes, many of his colleagues are working more than one job. He said he felt it was important for the workers to ban together and picket. “It’s so frustrating this has been going on for so long,” Schmidt said. “We deserve more.” Registered Nurse Anna Maria Amicucci said during her 18 years working at SBU she has been through furloughs and hasn’t received a pay increase in four years. “We’re picketing to bring awareness to our state representatives about the gap in compensation between Stony Brook hospital and neighboring, competing institutions,” Amicucci said. The nurse said she has seen a steady flow of new hires over the last couple of years receive their training at SBU and then leave for other institutions where they have been offered higher pay. Amicucci said in understaffed units the hospital has been paying more overtime to make up for the shortfall. “Stony Brook hospital has always been a leader in cutting-edge medicine and research,” she said. “It is time that it becomes a leader in staff recruitment and retention. A critical step in achieving that goal is putting its staff at par with our peers.” Renee Golde, a registered nurse with the hospital for two-and-a-half years, said after working as an ultrasound technician, she went back to college to become a nurse. She said working for Stony Brook hospital is something she always wanted to do, and she wants to stay and bring about change to keep nurses at the institution. She said she hopes the administration will see that the employees want to stay and are just asking to close the salary gap. “I stay because I love the people I work with,” Golde said. “I love my patients and I love being a Stony Brook nurse.” Stony Brook released a statement through Kali Chan, director of medicine media relations at Stony Brook Medicine, when asked about the workers’ concerns “Stony Brook University Hospital is supportive of our nurses, EMTs and paramedics,” Chan wrote. “We work every day to foster a positive work environment where all employees are valued and respected.”

Her daughter said while she jokes that she took her time so the two could graduate together, she said sharing the milestone on the same day just worked out that way, and she’s happy it did. “We’re able to celebrate each other, our education, our degrees, and I just think it’s really amazing,” the daughter said.

Withdrawal from deal gets Iran closer to nuclear weapons Your turn

BY JACK HARRINGTON

The 2015 international accord known formally as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, and colloquially as the Iran Deal, brought the United States and the world closer to the goal of a nuclear weapons-free Iran than any other initiative since 1979. The agreement negotiated with the U.S., the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia and China was the

result of principled and tough American-led diplomacy. After recertifying Iranian compliance with the deal on multiple occasions, the Republican Trump administration formally announced May 8 the U.S. was withdrawing from the JCPOA to the consternation of many of our closest allies. The president’s decision is shortsighted. The administration’s argument in part against the deal — an argument that began as campaign rhetoric and crystallized into policy — is that the JCPOA does not address other bad acts by the Iranian regime. Everyone is aware that the Iranian government has been responsible for destabilizing the Middle East, sponsoring terrorist organizations and repressing human rights. However, that was not the purpose of the Iranian nuclear deal. Iran’s dark history is exactly why the Obama administration prioritized preventing the Iranian regime from developing nuclear weapons. This has been and must continue to be our primary objective. In its short existence, the JCPOA has seen 17,000 centrifuges and 95 percent of Iran’s highly enriched uranium stockpile removed and Iran’s only plutonium reactor disabled, according to the Arms Control Association, a national nonpartisan organization. Meanwhile, the deal has ensured that the best nuclear inspectors in the world watch Iran’s entire supply chain — from the mines to the

laboratories — to ensure the Iranian regime cannot produce or transport such weapons under the radar. All of this was achieved because the U.S. rallied allies and other partners to the negotiating table, and it was done without firing a shot. If the deal collapses, Iran will have no limits or inspectors on their nuclear program, meaning they could rush for a bomb, in turn setting us on a path for another incredibly destructive conflict in the Middle East. The Iran Deal is not built on trust, but rather verification. The International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.S. intelligence community and leading military figures in the Trump administration — including Secretary of Defense James Mattis and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Joseph Dunford — have all at various times assessed that Iran remained in compliance and was not building a nuclear weapon. We have other tools in our toolbox, including sanctions within the parameters of the JCPOA, to counter Iran’s missile programs and terrorism sponsorship. The United States should not abandon the JCPOA’s progress toward full denuclearization because it doesn’t simultaneously cure all other ills. At a broader level, the decision to withdraw from the JCPOA is the latest example of an administration retreating from its position of global leadership. We continue to alienate our staunchest allies and are sending a terrible signal to other bad

actors — including North Korea — about the value of American leadership and diplomacy. We will also create the space for China and Russia to profit diplomatically and economically by engaging with Iran if we will not. Campaign rhetoric notwithstanding, America cannot bomb away a country’s understanding of nuclear science. We owe it not only to the international community but also the proud men and women of our own armed forces to exhaust every diplomatic action before going to war. This is certainly true given that the JCPOA has yielded more progress than any other initiative to date. In response to President Trump’s announcement, President Obama (D) said, “In a democracy, there will always be changes in policies and priorities from one administration to the next.” Obama’s statement continued: “But the consistent flouting of agreements that our country is a party to risks eroding America’s credibility, and puts us at odds with the world’s major powers.” President Obama is correct: America must remain in and improve, where possible, the Iran Deal.

Building a better Suffolk through infrastructure investment Suffolk County families have seen tough economic times in recent decades, with the erosion of our middle class and the disappearance of good-paying jobs. The lack of industry, scarcity of high-quality jobs, and high cost of real estate force too many of our young people and families to move out of the county. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We can create a future where people want to move to Suffolk for its high quality of life, not away from it. As an entrepreneur and businessman with 30 years of experience building and growing businesses, I know that neither government nor private industry will solve these problems alone. We must forge private-public partnerships and make critical investments to redevelop our economy. Imagine a Suffolk County that’s economically revitalized with a modernized infrastructure. Improving the Long Island Rail Road, rebuilding our highways and bridges, modernizing our sewer and septic systems, and investing in renewable energy sources are key infrastructure investments we can make to drive economic opportunity in the county. The LIRR is vital to Suffolk County and it must be modernized and improved. We should invest in improving LIRR signal systems that will reduce the delays that plague commuters.

costs today, but we do have windy coasts and lots of sun. These natural assets give us the opportunity to invest in the fastest growing energy source — wind power, both onshore and offshore. By investing in wind, as well as solar energy, we will not only be investing in Suffolk manufacturing and construction jobs to build and install turbines, but also driving down residents’ energy prices, all while helping the environment. The more we reduce energy costs, the more sense it will make for manufacturing firms to operate in the county. Improving LIRR, rebuilding our roads and bridges, cleaning up our waste systems and investing in renewable energy will not only improve our quality of life and improve our economy, but also will provide well-paid union jobs to Suffolk County workers. These projects require a combination of federal, state and county, and often town, cooperation and funding. But working together, we can rebuild our infrastructure. This future, with infrastructure investment and economic growth, can be a reality. Together, we can actually make bold, progressive ideas to invest in our infrastructure and grow our economy.

BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM A cultural and educational organization and Stony Brook law practice are joining forces to teach those over 55 and recognize them for their contributions to society. In March, The Ward Melville Heritage Organization and Burner Law Group, P.C., launched a program that incorporates virtual travel geared toward the 55 and older community. Attendees will get to explore different places by viewing a big screen while asking curators and experts questions in real time. Nancy Burner, who practices elder law and estate planning, said the first travel program held April 25 included a virtual tour of the Royal Botanical Gardens in Canada. “Viewers were able to interact with the guide and experience an engaging adventure from their seat in Stony Brook Village,” Burner said. “Future programs will continue these virtual tours and will also showcase those community members in their third age who are continuing to live extraordinary and vibrant lives.” Burner uses the term third age to describe the 55 plus generation and has given talks and written articles about the subject. Gloria Rocchio, president of WMHO, said the programs at the Educational & Cultural Center will be called the 55 Plus Club. She added attendees have already given feedback on what they would like to see in

the future. Upcoming events at the WMHO Educational & Cultural Center will include a cyber security workshop and master classes with special guests, according to Rocchio. “The idea is to socialize and learn things that are important to [people],” she said. Rocchio said the 55 plus segment of the population has a wealth of knowledge to offer, and Burner said many are hungry for enlightened experiences and eager to learn new things. “These third age events held by the 55 Plus Club inspire individuals in the second act to pursue both meaning and purpose in their lives,” Burner said. “Longevity studies show that by nurturing generative qualities and looking for intellectual stimulation and fulfillment, third-agers are helping themselves to live longer and healthier lives.” The next event, Virtual Travel to South Padre Island — Riders of the Stream at Sea Turtle Inc., will be held May 23. Guests will learn about the rescue and rehabilitation of injured sea turtles on South Padre Island, their release back into the wild, conservation efforts, nesting, hatchling releases and more. The cost for the program is $15 per person and refreshments are served. Call 631-689-5888 for reservations and visit www.stonybrookvillage.com for details on all upcoming programs. The Ward Melville Heritage Organization Educational & Cultural Center is located at 97 Main St. in Stony Brook.

JEFFERSON’S FERRY

All around care

The rehabilitation team at Jefferson’s Ferry life plan community was recently honored for compliance excellence by the HealthPRO/Heritage Corporate Compliance program. The team, led by Alyssa Shea, rehabilitation director and occupational therapist, was presented with its award at an on-site luncheon held in the team’s honor. The rehab team, which partners with Jefferson’s Ferry through HealthPRO and has worked for the life plan community since 2013, is one of just 11 teams out of more than 600 that was acknowledged for excellence. In announcing the award,

the team was cited in particular for its ontime documentation and compliance in all aspects of patient care and billing. “This dedication to efficient compliance is an all-around win-win,” said Anthony Comerford, vice president of health services. “The benefits to patients are the proper coverage for therapy and proper treatment codes and medical diagnosis. Outpatients may be entitled to more therapy services covered as a result of the proper documentation and there would also be the possibility of increased coverage through Medicare for assistive devices.”

Josephine P. Panzarella, 99, of Setauket, died April 30. She was born March 19, 1919, in Brooklyn to Mary and Louis Seminara. Josephine was a homemaker and a very special lady who raised seven children with her late husband Dr. Joseph Panzarella, who she cared for and supported throughout his career. She enjoyed so many activities, especially reading. She volunteered more than seven years for Meals on Wheels, was president of the DR’s wives at Mary Immaculate Hospital, treasurer of a garden club, prior president of the Rosary Society of St. James R.C. Church and a member of the Home Extensions/ Homemakers group of Setauket. Left to cherish her memory are her daughters Jeanine Sanfilippo, Jennifer Villacci and Judy Panzarella; sons Joseph and James; 17 grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren; sisters Lucy Maass and Margaret Albora, along with many other family and friends. She was preceded in death by her husband Joseph, daughter Jacqueline Safrath, son Jeffrey, sister Catherine Gregory and brothers Santo and Salvatore. Services were held at St. James R.C.

Church May 5. Interment followed at the St. Charles Cemetery, Farmingdale. Arrangements were entrusted to the Bryant Funeral Home of Setauket. Visit www. bryantfh.com to sign the online guest book.

Patriots baseball game suspended due to weather BY DESIRÉE KEEGAN DESIREE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

West Islip 4 Ward Melville 1

— Max Nielsen

“We came up empty a few times with runners in scoring position, but it’s hard adjusting and sitting back against a pitcher who is throwing low-to-mid 70s,” Nielsen said. “On the defensive side of things, we had a few hops and plays that didn’t go our way, so that’s baseball for ya. We knew that West Islip was going to be a tough team to beat, but we know that we can beat them. We wanted to get ahead early and really get into their bullpen.” Ward Melville will dive into its bullpen, with the pitch count rules leaving both starters ineligible to return to the mound for the remainder of the suspended game. Matt DiGennaro will come out of the bullpen to replace Ethan Farino for the Patriots. “I don’t know who they’re going to use, but I can’t worry about them, I have to worry about Ward Melville,” Petrucci said. “We’ve had the right hitters up, but we couldn’t get the big hits. Hopefully with a day change we’ll get these opportunities again and try to put some good swings on the ball. We have to see if we can fight back.” Nielsen said the team has been in tough hitting situations before, and Petrucci added players have struggled all year with two-out production, and that was the case through most of the day. The head coach said he told his boys following the postponement that the plays West Islip made gave them a 4-1 lead, and the plays the Patriots didn’t make helped Ward Melville to a 4-1 deficit. “Offensively we’ve struggled all year with two-out hitting — now it’s a playoff game and we’re doing it again,” Petrucci said. “Hopefully we can make up for it over the next three innings. The season’s not over — we’ve had a great one, the kids

DESIREE KEEGAN

A stroke of lightning might be what Ward Melville’s baseball team needed to turn things around. With rain, thunder and lightning delaying the No. 7 Patriots’ second-round playoff game against host No. 2 West Islip May 15, it also ends the Lions’ one-runper-inning scoring streak, with the two teams resuming play May 16 at 4 p.m., barring no additional weather setbacks. West Islip held a 4-1 lead when play was suspended. “We played uncharacteristically poorly on defense,” Ward Melville head coach Lou Petrucci said. “And it cost us.” Ward Melville started the bottom of the inning off strong, with junior Max Nielsen smacking an RBI-single to shallow right center field on a 3-2 count to score senior Brady Doran from second. “I knew either it was going to be a ball by a long shot or he was going to give me an easy pitch to just flick into the outfield, and he gave me just that,” Nielsen said discussing his discipline at the plate. “My approach was to simply put the ball in a hole somewhere. When I saw Brady [Doran] score I knew that it was going to be a good game.” Petrucci said he expects that from one of his star starting pitchers and designated hitter. “He’s been doing that all year,” the coach said. “Max had a big hit right there, and we need more of that from other guys, too. Baseball’s not a one-man show. Max did his job, but we have to come back the next inning and shut them down, and we didn’t do it.” West Islip answered with a ground-rule double, a bunt and a sacrifice fly to tie the score, 1-1. A grounder to third ended the inning, but Ward Melville came up empty over the next three innings while West Islip scored once in each. The Patriots also couldn’t cash in despite loading the bases in the top of the third with two outs.

‘We came up empty a few times with runners in scoring position, but it’s hard adjusting and sitting back against a pitcher who is throwing low-to-mid 70s.’

Clockwise from top left, third baseman Matty Maurer tosses the ball to first for an out; first baseman Ryan Hynes reaches for a high toss to get the out in time at first base; second baseman Logan Doran turns toward first; Doran makes contact with a pitch; and Max Nielsen dashes to first base.

have played hard all year, we just have to continue to play hard for the next nine outs and see where the chips fall.” Results from the second part of the suspended game were not available at press time May 16.

OPINION Editorial

Letters to the editor METO/CREATIVE CONNECTIONS

The power of sharing opinions the right way It would behoove us all to be active instead of passive government participants. As we continue to use social media as a way of communication, its use as a focal point of complaints and criticism continues to soar. In high school, participation in government classes is part of the core curriculum, designed to focus on citizenship and what it means to take part in a democracy. The culmination of a student’s social studies experience should ready him or her to apply the content-rich study of contemporary and historic public issues to the current ones, and increase awareness of the rights and responsibilities of a United States citizen. These goals are laid out clearly by the U.S. Department of Education. Just as the course is geared to engage students in the analysis of public policies and issues and encourage their practice of freedom of speech to voice opinions or ask critical questions to those in administrative or political power, we implore every nonstudent to do the same. Whether it’s disapproval about how a district is readying itself for a potential loss in revenue to fund programs in a budget, or the concern of an increase in the homeless population in a given area, civic engagement goes far beyond complaining in a Facebook post. Elected officials take office for the stated purpose of representing the interests of a constituency. Before opening Facebook, write a letter or an email to your government representative, school superintendent or board of education president, or attend a meeting to speak during public comment. Elected officials want their phones and email accounts buzzing with issues important to people they represent. That’s why they decide to serve, or at least it should be. Recently, when residents were concerned about the construction of a water fountain at a new dog park in Selden, many took to a private Facebook page to complain and tagged Brookhaven Town Councilman Kevin LaValle (R-Selden) in their posts. Others gathered together and attended a town board meeting to make their sentiments heard. This active participation not only gets a message across in a more mature manner, but it also can create change. With these complaints and asked questions, they were able to place the fountain in an appropriate location inside the dog park and ensure the completion of the project included a rock bed to cover the fountain’s drain. In Huntington Town, residents have joined together to create banners, post signs and send out mailers to let neighbors know of public hearings regarding a 486,380-square-foot commercial project. The group, in opposition to the project, is attempting to strengthen its unified front with more bodies. These cases prove participation in government matters. Our Founding Fathers established this government to protect people’s basic rights and create order. If someone feels or believes he or she has an opinion that should be heard, or feels their basic rights are being threatened, engagement in democracy needs to happen beyond feverish typing across a keyboard behind a computer screen.

No crocodile tears here

The purpose of my letter in the April 19 edition of The Village Times Herald, “Redirecting energy toward overdoses,” was to bring attention to the fact that U.S. accidental drug overdose deaths are far deadlier than gun homicides, especially in Suffolk County, where the disparity of fatalities is, respectively, a staggering 28 to 1. Perhaps one of the reasons Professor Arnold Wishnia in his May 3 letter, “Drawing attention away from guns,” was so confused by that submission was he saw those specific facts as a threat to his personal biases. It’s critical to note, throughout his wordy, disjointed response he was unable to refute the major data points presented. Rather, Wishnia took to projecting the specious qualities from his own letter onto mine. Here are two examples. Without irony, he lamented my “non sequiturs,” while helter-skelter invoking Elizabeth Warren, Elijah Cummings, lung cancer, Jeff Sessions, Chicago and a scandalized Eric Schneiderman. Worse still was the professor’s attributing to me a callousness

regarding mass shooting victims (“So, what?”) when it was he who derisively characterized my genuine concerns regarding 64,000 overdose fatalities as “crocodile tears about opioid abuse.” Wishnia, a fellow I can’t ever recall meeting, unequivocally states he knows my true motivation for getting involved in this drug crisis. Somehow he knows what’s in my heart. He is spectacularly wrong. My first exposure to the destruction caused by alcoholism and heroin addiction came as a preteen living in a solid middle-class neighborhood. It was a formative experience, later reinforced by the drinking and driving deaths of several high school friends. Those difficult times served me well throughout my nearly 35 years of teaching high-risk and special-needs children. From my initial full-time position in a school populated by students expelled from their districts, to teaching in one of the most affluent Long Island communities, I could relate to families and kids suffering from the horrific effects

of drug addiction. In the first setting, crises were more obvious. A young man ignoring our advice regarding suspect pot on campus, apparently smoked oregano sprayed with strychnine and collapsed outside the classroom. In the latter setting, as part of a professional team tasked with testing, writing and presenting reports on students suspected of learning disabilities, I saw the less conspicuous, disabling effects on the cognitive abilities of youngsters whose mothers were “using” during their pregnancy. Today, our neighborhoods have become the state epicenter of this epidemic. Suffolk County had 360 deaths from overdoses in 2016, tragically impacting, perhaps forever, many thousands of our fellow Long Islanders. Rest assured, having attended heartbreaking wakes, memorials and meetings, those folks grieving, myself included, were not shedding “crocodile tears.”

Jim Soviero East Setauket

Addressing gang violence Dear Director James McHenry, On April 12, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement presented the Fiscal Year 2019 president’s budget request. The testimony included a commitment to open 75 new immigration courtrooms in 2018 to reduce the backlog of pending immigration cases. As [director of] the Executive Office for Immigration Review, [which] identifies locations for new immigration courts, we respectfully request you place at least one of these new locations on Long Island. According to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, Suffolk and Nassau counties rank in the top 10 among all counties in the nation for pending cases before immigration courts, with 23,178 cases as of Dec. 31, 2017.

Suffolk and Nassau counties have absorbed a significant number of unaccompanied alien children with 1,219 being relocated in Nassau County and 1,472 going to sponsors in Suffolk County in 2017. Pending cases contribute to associated gang violence on Long Island as gang members target youth like UACs. While serving as Suffolk County’s police commissioner, now Suffolk County District Attorney Timothy Sini stated in his testimony to the Committee on Homeland Security, “of a sampling of 143 active gang members, 89 entered the United States illegally and currently do not have legal status (39 of whom are UACs), 48 are of unknown immigration status, and 17 have legal status (temporary or otherwise).” An

adequate expansion of EOIR resources to Long Island would assist local law enforcement’s relationship with ICE to implement enacted immigration laws. The backlog in immigration courts is a result of years of policy failures under prior administrations. Effective immigration judge teams are necessary to carry out the U.S. Department of Justice’s statutory responsibility to prosecute administrative immigration cases. Suffolk and Nassau counties could efficiently use these resources to address the backlog as well as prioritize incoming cases related to gang violence. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

U.S. Congressmen Lee Zeldin and Peter King

Remember dad on his day, too Thank you for focusing on and honoring mothers in the May 10 editorial. It’s a most important role that cannot be filled by anyone who makes anything less than a wholehearted, time-consuming, self-sacrificing commitment to another developing and needy

human being. I look forward to an equally edifying Father’s Day issue acknowledging the vital role that has been diminished, but never adequately replaced, by laws, welfare, programs and more, induced and aggravated by a general moral

breakdown and abdication of personal responsibility, which have eviscerated the patriarchal provider and protector of the family and the strength of the nation.

OPINION

Scientists use signs to save lives

hat do the signs tell us? In Hawaii, numerous small earthquakes caused parts of Big Island to shake. Geologists, who monitor the islands regularly, warned of a pending volcanic eruption. They were right, clearing people away from lava flows. How did they know? It’s a combination of history and science. Researchers in the area point to specific signs that are reflections of patterns that have developed in past years. The small earthquakes, like the By Daniel Dunaief feel of the ground trembling as a herd of elephants is approaching in the Serengeti, suggest the movement of magma underneath the ground. Higher volumes of lava flows could come later on, as in 1955 and 1960, say USGS scientists in the archipelago.

D. None of the above

The science involves regular monitoring of events, looking for evidence of what’s going on below the surface. “Hopefully we’ll get smart enough that we can see [tremors] coming or at least be able to use that as a proxy for having people on the ground watching these things,” Tina Neal, scientist-in-charge at USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, explained to KHON2 News in Honolulu. People look for signs in everything they do, hoping to learn from history and to use whatever evidence is available to make predictions and react accordingly. Your doctor does it during your annual physical, monitoring your blood chemistry, checking your heart and lungs, and asking basic questions about your lifestyle. Scientists around Long Island are involved in a broad range of studies. Geneticists, for example, try to see what the sequence of base pairs might mean for you. Their information, like the data the geologists gather in Hawaii, doesn’t indicate exactly what will happen and when, but it can suggest developments that might affect you.

Cancer researchers at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and Stony Brook University are using tools like the gene editing system called CRISPR to see how changing the genetic code affects the course of development or the pathway for a disease. Gene editing can help localize the regions responsible for the equivalent of destructive events in our own bodies, showing where they are and what sequences cause progression. Scientists, often working six or seven days a week, push the frontiers of our ability to make sense of whatever signs they collect. Once they gather that information, they can use it to help create more accurate diagnoses and to develop therapies that have individualized benefits. Indeed, not all breast cancers are the same, which means that not all treatments will have the same effect. Some cancers will respond to one type of therapy, while others will barely react to the same treatment. Fundamental, or basic, research is critical to the understanding of translational challenges like treating Alzheimer’s patients or curing potentially deadly fungal infections.

Indeed, most scientists who “discover” a treatment will recognize the seminal studies that helped them finish a job started years — and in some cases decades — before they developed cures. Treatments often start long before the clinical stages, when scientists want to know how or why something happens. The pursuit of knowledge for its own sake can lead to unexpected and important benefits. Outside the realm of medicine, researchers on Long Island are working on areas like understanding the climate and weather, and the effect on energy production. Numerous scientists at SBU and Brookhaven National Laboratory study the climate, hoping to understand how one of the most problematic parts of predicting the weather — clouds — affects what could happen tomorrow or in the next decade. The research all these scientists do helps us live longer and better lives, offering us early warnings of developing possibilities. Scientists not only interpret what the signs tell us, but can also help us figure out the right signs to study.

person’s life. Now we are in the time of Edwardian England, and the person who overhears the conversation and offers herself up for self-improvement is Eliza Doolittle. A Cockney flower girl in Piccadilly Circus, she is both terrified of what is to come and palpably ambitious, insisting that while she is a “good girl,” not looking for anything carnal, she desperately wants to learn. So Higgins takes her into his elegant home and professorial life and works intensely with her in his laboratory for months while Pickering looks on and offers help wherever he is needed — after being assured by Higgins that there will not be any hanky-panky involved. Higgins vehemently asserts to Pickering that he is not interested in emotional relationships. The experiment between the high-born cerebral bachelor and the “guttersnipe” pupil thus begins. Will Higgins succeed and win the bet? We know Eliza will succeed, even as we watch her anguished attempts to learn what Higgins is working so hard to teach. There are testing moments for

her progress and teaching opportunities that include a riotously funny visit on opening day to Ascot Racecourse. Fun is poked unmercifully at the pretensions of the upper classes. Finally, the big test arrives, a ball where Eliza is going to be introduced to and judged by those swells assembled. She, of course, pulls it off and is thought to be of Hungarian royal blood. But is she congratulated? Well, you have to go see the play. I’m not about to spoil the ending for those unfamiliar with the plot. But her triumph is not the point. Her future is. What is to become of this person who has transcended her class, with its freedoms, grime and penury notwithstanding, and is now locked into the bourgeois rules for women in an ossified society? Is she to become Higgins’ mistress? And what about him? She has now awakened emotions in him that he has long walled off from his daily life. Will he ask her to marry him? He, too, has been transformed. The answer is that 1956 was quite different to 2018. Can you guess?

How the fair lady has changed

ucky me, our Mother’s Day celebration this year included a trip into New York City to see “My Fair Lady.” Now this show, which I first saw on Broadway in 1956 just after it was launched, was a trip down memory lane for me. It was also a bellwether for how much our culture has changed. At the time of its premiere 62 years ago, the By Leah S. Dunaief play was the “Hamilton” of its time, creating the adulation and frenzied response for tickets that we are familiar with today. “My Fair Lady” was a different sort of musical for its many-layered themes and clever, witty lyrics. It stood apart from the golden era of Rodgers and Hammerstein marvels like “South

Between you and me

Pacific” and “Oklahoma!” that had preceded it. This wasn’t in the mold of a romantic musical but rather one about personal transformation and English class rigidity. The play, by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe, had as its inspiration from the ancient world, Ovid’s “Metamorphoses,” and more recently George Bernard Shaw’s “Pygmalion.” This is the story of a sculptor, talented but alone, who carves a beautiful woman out of stone and then falls in love with her. He prays to Venus to bring her to life, and the goddess of love hears him. The statue becomes flesh and blood beneath his hands, and what comes next is the essence of the story. In the Lerner and Loewe iteration, two high society phoneticians named Henry Higgins and retired army Col. Hugh Pickering make a bet over whether the way English people speak — their accents — lock them into their class and station for their entire lives. Higgins feels that if he can teach a low-born pupil to speak the King’s English, he can change that
