Education

School District Urges State Lawmakers to Say No to Mandating HPV Vaccine BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM The Three Village Central School District is standing up to New York State regarding a proposal to mandate one vaccine in New York. District officials sent a letter dated Nov. 18 to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), as well as state Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) and Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport). The letter, signed by Superintendent Cheryl Pedisich and board of ed President William Connors, stated the board was opposing the proposed amendment to Section 2164 of the public health law. The amendment will require that all students born after 2009 receive the human papillomavirus vaccine as part of the state’s mandated school immunization program. “While we recognize that changes in the health law are often necessary in order to protect the public at large against health crises or to mitigate exposure to a communicable disease in open spaces, we are clinically opposed to adding the HPV vaccine to the required vaccination program for myriad reasons,” Pedisich and Connors said in the letter. The school officials went on to say other

required vaccines “aim to safeguard children against diseases that are easily contracted in a public school setting.” The letter cited diseases such as measles and pertussis, which can be spread through poor personal hygiene or airborne respiratory droplets. This differs from HPV, which according to the American Cancer Society, is passed from one person to another by skin-to-skin contact associated with sexual activity and not from toilet seats, casual contact and recreational items such as swimming pools and hot tubs. The district added that data from independent health news site MedShadow, which focuses on the side effects of medicines, shows “postmarketing safety and surveillance data indicate that Gardasil 9 is well tolerated and safe, still many physicians have hesitated to recommend it based on its potential side effects.” The school officials said in their letter students don’t engage in activities that spread the disease. “As our public schools are not places where students would engage in the activities found to make one susceptible to contracting or spreading HPV, why then should it be mandatory that students be inoculated with the vaccine in order to attend school?” officials wrote.

Before the letter was posted on the district’s website, members of the Facebook page Three Village Moms began to chatter about the district’s proposed message. Three Village parent Jenna Lorandini reached out to TBR News Media when she heard the board was taking the stance and said she was disappointed. “I view the mandate as a necessary public health initiative whose purpose is to protect our children from a communicable disease as adults,” she said in an email. “If the advancements in science and medicine are available to us, mandating the vaccine would create widespread protection. The easiest way to do that is in the public school sector as timing of the vaccine is pertinent to the prevention of a cancer-causing virus. This doesn’t infringe upon my parental rights when its intent is to preserve life before a child can consent to that protection.” Nichole Gladky, another Three Village parent, said she felt the district was moving too quickly and reacting to “the loud and staunch voices of those who partake in the Anti-Vaxx movement.” She said she will do what her pediatrician recommends. “I wish the vaccination was available to me at the time,” she said. “There is a lot of

easily consumable media of misinformation available on the Internet, social media, TV, etc. Everyone needs a proper dose of education on this vaccine — and disease control in general — and it could start with the school district before any action is taken.” Dayna Whaley, whose daughter is unable to attend kindergarten at Arrowhead Elementary School due to not having vaccinations that New York State made a requirement earlier this year, said she thinks the letter is a good idea, even though she wishes the school would do more to oppose mandate vaccinations. She and her husband chose not to get vaccinations for their daughter after watching her suffer a spinal tap at four days old after getting the vitamin K shot. “Requiring vaccines for sexually transmitted diseases as a requirement for school attendance as with hepatitis B and now Gardasil is just plain wrong,” she said. In the case of requiring Gardasil to attend school, Whaley said that she feels even pro vaccinating parents will be willing to pull their children from public school. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HPV is estimated to cause nearly 35,000 cases of cancer in men and women every year in the U.S. ©163031

Obituaries Dr. William Colden

Dr. William W. Colden died peacefully Oct. 10 with family by his side. He was a respected and dedicated pediatrician for over 40 years. He was born and grew up in Brooklyn and graduated from Brooklyn College before serving in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. He was deployed to Germany where he spent his tour of duty as a public health inspector. Following military service, he attended medical school in Lausanne, Switzerland, before

completing his pediatric residency training at Brookdale Hospital in Brooklyn. At the start of his residency, he met and married his wife Barbara (née Rosendorf). They celebrated their 56th anniversary in July. Coinciding with the completion of his training and the birth of two children, Barbara and Bill moved to Setauket to start a medical practice as well as a new life in the suburbs. Their family became complete with the addition of two more wonderful children. Life was good, with many fabulous friends and colleagues who were like family. Holidays, trips and the good and bad times were shared. Friends and fellow pediatricians were an important part of his life. The practice that was started in Setauket was moved to Port Jefferson. He was on the medical

staff of St. Charles Hospital and John T. Mather Hospital in Port Jefferson and worked at the Stony Brook University Medical Center in Stony Brook. He practiced for more than 40 years and was dedicated to his patients and their families. Colden was a collector and a naturalist. As a child, it was coins and stamps. When he was older, he amassed an extensive scallop shell collection. He then became interested in shore bird and duck decoys and had a large, beautiful and varied collection. He was a long-standing member of the Long Island Decoy Collectors Association and enjoyed the exchange of information and camaraderie. He adored his family. Being a parent to four was not always easy, but he taught, loved and encouraged. He instilled a desire for knowledge and education, as well as a sound work ethic. He was very proud of the adults his children had become. He was a loving, loyal, kind and protective husband, father and friend. We all know life is a roller coaster of ups and downs, sick and good health and good times and not so good times. Life has never been dull. Illness did not define the man. In spite of the many serious health issues he had for many years, life had been good. He tried his best and his hardest and did live a rich, full, happy, loving and caring life. Colden was the beloved husband of Barbara; the devoted father of Spencer (Lana), Garrett, Daryl (Kristin Tallman) and Carena Lowenthal (Roger); the loving grandfather of Olivia, Sofia, Laurel and Noah; the adored brother of Sheila (Irving) Troob; and was a caring uncle, cousin, colleague and friend. Funeral services were held at the North Shore Jewish Center where a touching and beautiful service was conducted by Rabbi Aaron Benson.

Jerome Goldmacher

Jerome (Jerry) Goldmacher, 93, formerly of Stony Brook, died Oct. 28 at his daughter’s home in McLean, Virginia. He spent nearly a decade as a senior official on the Apollo program that first sent man to the moon, working for Grumman overseeing the lunar module programs. He served as the deputy spacecraft manager of the lunar lander on Apollo 11 and the spacecraft manager for the lunar module that successfully carried the crew on the ill-fated Apollo 13 home safely. He would go on to serve as the spacecraft director of the lunar modules for Apollo 15, 16 and 17. He worked at Grumman for 38 years and retired as a vice president in the space systems division. He was an avid motorcyclist and sailor when he lived in Stony Brook before relocating to Highland Beach, Florida, in 2002. Born in the Bronx in 1926, Jerry enlisted in the United States Marine Corps at age 17. He served in the Pacific and China from 1943 to 1946, making him one of the dwindling number of surviving World War II veterans. His ashes will be laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery next year. In addition to Ruth, his spouse of 70 years, Jerry is survived by his daughter Helen (Sullivan); his four grandchildren Juliet, Olivia, Paige and Shane, son of his only son, Paul, who predeceased him by 33 years; and four great-grandchildren.

Heatherwood Developer Proposes New PILOT Package to Brookhaven IDA BY DAVID LUCES DLUCES@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM After being rejected for a tax benefits package from the Town of Brookhaven Industrial Development Agency in August, the developer for the Heatherwood Golf Club has now proposed to the agency a revised payment in lieu of taxes package. Under the revised 13-year package presented to the IDA board Nov. 19, the assessed value of the development would be phased in at a faster rate during years 4-13, according to the developer. In turn, the PlLOT payments would come out to more than $9.8 million, an increase of over $1.4 million compared to the initial tax benefit package they proposed. In a Sept. 16 letter sent to the Brookhaven IDA, Peter Curry, a Uniondale-based lawyer representing Heatherwood Golf & Villas LLC, reiterated Heatherwood can’t finance and develop the project without the assistance of the agency. Due to the significant increase in construction costs from $46.6 million to about $55 million, Curry said the developer is willing to decrease the amount of financial assistance required and pay the additional $1.4 millionplus in PILOT payments in hopes that the IDA

would reconsider accepting the application. Community members and civic groups present at the Nov. 19 public hearing argued that even despite the revised PILOT package, the developer’s application for the project was virtually the same as it was in August, and wondered how it could be up for reconsideration again without any major changes. “Are you kidding me?” said an exasperated Herb Mones, chair of the Three Village Civic Association land use committee. “If anything, this is a self-inflicted wound by a private corporation, but now it is trying its very best to saddle the taxpayers with some type of remedy.” Mones said Heatherwood wants the taxpayers to foot the bill of paying the future of their taxes and mortgage fees on the project. “It’s pig feeding at the trough. For a corporation to try to do this is an outrage to the public,” he said. He added that Heatherwood has reaped millions when the Town of Brookhaven zoning board approved a crucial zone change in 2014 that allowed for apartments on the golf course property despite overwhelming community opposition. “But that’s not enough, now they’ve come back for more,” Mones said. “Do I blame them? No, I don’t blame then, but I will blame

you if you give them relief this way.” Other concerns brought up previously have been the negative impacts the tax breaks could have on local school districts as well as increase traffic congestion at the intersection of Route 347 and Arrowhead Lane in South Setauket. Sal Pitti, president of the Port Jefferson Station/Terryville Civic Association, said nothing has changed since the August rejection. “The only thing that changed is that it is going to cost more to build the project,” he said. “There’s no reason that the IDA with six jobs being offered [for the project] should even

allow [the developer] to come back within two months of their turndown. It’s a joke.” IDA board members back in August said six jobs wasn’t enough to grant the benefits packages. Pitti said unless the application showed that the project would bring a substantial number of jobs into the community added on to the people that already work there, the developer shouldn’t be allowed to go forward. “I do a lot of things at Town Hall and two words I hear a lot are ‘precedent and perception,’” he said to the IDA board. “The precedent you guys are setting here is sad because if a company can come back two months later and present the same exact thing and hope it can get it by the board — that’s where the perception comes in. What has changed in two months that the vote should change from negative to positive?” IDA officials stated they would not comment to the public nor reporters after the public hearing. At the conclusion of the hearing, IDA officials said the application could be brought up at its board meeting Dec. 2. It would be up to the board members to decide if they want to vote on the application at that time or they could push the vote into 2020.

History Close at Hand

Historical Society Preserves a Piece of Local History BY BEVERLY C. TYLER DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

Setauket United Methodist Church at the corner of Main Street and Route 25A sits as a beacon and a guide to the historic community around it known as Chicken Hill. This is a place that had its roots in mid19th century industrial America with first the Nunns & Clark piano factory and its primarily German workforce, followed in the same five-story brick factory by the Long Island Rubber Company which initially hired Irish and African American workers. Later Russian Jews and Eastern European Catholic immigrants flooding into New York City were hired for a workforce that, at its peak, totaled more than 500. Three Village Historical Society president, Steve Healy, said he was approached by the church’s pastor, the Rev. Steven Kim, who knew about the society’s exhibit, Chicken Hill: A Community Lost to Time. Kim asked if the society would be interested in the church’s steeple as it was to be taken down and replaced by a new one. “I thought it would be nice to include a

consisted of the aluminum skin and the interior framing. The exterior skin was separated from the inside structure and moved by trailer to the historical society’s headquarters on North Country Road. “We decided to take all 32 feet and later

decide what will be used in the exhibit,” Healy said. “It’s a historical artifact that people can touch and a fascinating addition to our exhibit in the history center.” One of the goals of the historical society is to bring the history of the local community to life and to excite and engage people. The society also wants visitors to its exhibits to discover what they want to remember and what they need to remember. The artifacts and documents in the Chicken Hill exhibit illustrate the cooperative community that existed at Chicken Hill as well as the societal problems that existed in and around that area. Bringing people of diverse ethnicity, race and religion here to live and work together provides a wealth of stories. The Chicken Hill exhibit tells the stories of harmony and conflict together with individual stories of pride, compassion and humor. The addition of the church steeple will help to bring the storytelling full circle. Beverly C.

North Shore Residents Cite Increased Encounters with Deer BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Drivers are regularly reminded that deer populations along the North Shore of Long Island are increasing as many of the animals graze alongside or dart across roadways. Some of these encounters unfortunately end in collisions. With deer and people on the move during the busy holiday season, TBR News Media is taking a look at issues to hopefully curb the impact.

Destruction of vegetation

Christina Maffia, who has lived in Old Field South for 18 years, said she sees deer on her property every day, sometimes a lone buck and other times two or three animals. She described her property as “once lush, green, temperate forest that has been reduced to bare limbs below 5 feet.” She said her perennials don’t grow back due to being continuously eaten. The appearance of depleted vegetation coincided with the arrival of the deer a few years ago. She said her neighborhood had been planted back when Frank Melville established the neighborhood in 1929. The grounds in Old Field South were designed by the landscape architecture firm of Frederick Law Olmsted, which also designed Central Park. “These plantings are considered historical,” she said. “It’s such a shame that the historical part of this area that made it so beautiful is now being compromised.” Maffia has sprayed her plants with a product called Deer Off, which incorporates rotten eggs in the ingredients. It deters deer, she said, but her experience has been that whenever it rains or she runs the sprinklers, she needs to reapply the product which she uses around the

perimeter of her property. The Village of Old Field recently sent an email to residents encouraging them to use deer repellent on their properties. Village officials reminded homeowners that a new generation of deer will establish their own feeding trails this time of the year. Because of these new trails, “it is a good time of year to use repellents to redirect these trails before they become solidly developed,” the village said. According to the village email, deer repellent means less plant damage during fall and winter, and fewer deer in the village. Kathy Schiavone, of Port Jefferson, said she and her husband also have problems with their landscaping due to the deer. “We had tried the various remedies that have been suggested and have come to the conclusion that we will no longer buy and plant flowers to ornament our yard,” she said. “We did replace a number of yews with Japanese plum yews, which the deer do not bother. We had done this about five years ago. So far, so good.” According to the DEC’s website, among the food deer prefer are cedar, sassafras, wintergreen, yew, mountain maple, flowering dogwood and more. A list of other vegetation they feed on can be found at www.dec.ny.gov/ animals/7195.html. There is evidence that deer are also altering forests across New York, according to the DEC. This can reduce diversity in the forest understory, enable invasive species to outcompete natives and prevent seedlings of many species from growing into the next generation of trees.

Lyme disease

Maffia and Schiavone said they are concerned about deer ticks and contracting Lyme disease due to the increased population of deer. Both have friends and neighbors who have suffered from the tick-borne disease. Schiavone said she also knows four people who have contracted babesiosis, three of whom had to be hospitalized. Maffia said she had one neighbor with Lyme disease who later got Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Another was hospitalized with a severe inflammation around his heart caused by Lyme disease. “It’s not just aesthetics anymore,” Maffia said. “It’s people being impacted by the deer.” Nancy Irvolino has lived near Brooksite Drive in Smithtown for more than 40 years and has noticed an increase of the animals in the area. “Sometimes they are on the side [of Brooksite], but a lot of times they run out at night in front of my car and I slam the brakes,” she said. While Blydenburgh County Park abuts the lane she lives on, she said it wasn’t until a couple of years ago that she started seeing deer walking down her street and eating plants. Recently, she has seen them every night near her house. Irvolino said she worries about herself and

her dogs contracting Lyme disease and doesn’t even walk in the park due to it. According to the DEC website, deer are the primary food source for adult female ticks and reduction of deer populations to very low levels may reduce tick densities and infection rates. The Village of Old Field email to residents claimed that deer over time can carry thousands of ticks.

Solutions

Villages across the North Shore are debating the best way to cull the herds. “My hope is that our elected officials will realize the overabundance of deer is an important enough public issue to take action against,” Schiavone said. Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Valerie Cartright (D-Port Jefferson Station) is currently working to present a townwide forum on deer with the DEC in the near future, according to her office. Belle Terre allows bow hunting, and Head of the Harbor last year joined Avalon Park & Preserve in Stony Brook with a contraceptive vaccine experiment to help with deer management. The DEC supports the use of sharpshooters, who aim for an instant kill, so the animal doesn’t suffer and also advocates donating the meat to food banks. “I am not a fan of hunting just for the sake of demonstrating one’s prowess in killing any animal,” Schiavone said. “I have been convinced by information I have gotten that culling is the answer.” Maffia, who has been a vegetarian for 30 years, agreed. “At this point, because there are no natural predators, they’re attacking so many things people wouldn’t think of,” she said.

Maffia said she and her wife, Donna Crinnian, have been able to decrease the amount of bird seed they buy in the winter as nesting birds have disappeared since the deer have eaten the ground covering where the birds would nest. “They’re impacting the ecosystem,” she said. In the Village of Port Jefferson, where hunting is prohibited, residents are asked to call 631-774-0066 if they see a deceased deer on the road and 631-744-2507 if they see a wounded deer on their property. Those who spot hunter tree stands on private property can call Kathy Grady, DEC officer, at 631-7442507 so the location can be checked to see if it qualifies as legal hunting ground. Brookhaven residents can call the Animal Shelter at 631-451-6950 to report deceased deer on the road. In Smithtown, people can call the Animal Shelter at 631-360-7575 about dead or injured wildlife. When it comes to roadways, the Department of Motor Vehicles advises drivers to be extra cautious during both dawn and dusk when deer are most active, especially in the autumn months. Insurance company State Farm recently released its animal collision study from claims data from July 1, 2018, to June 30, 2019, which estimated 1.9 million animal collision claims industrywide nationally, the large majority being with deer. During the same period, it was estimated there were 1.5 million deer claims. “Remember, animals are unpredictable, especially when faced with glaring headlights, blowing horns and fast-moving vehicles,” said Billy Williams, Setauket State Farm agent. “They often dart into traffic.” He added that drivers should remember that deer move in herds, so if one is seen on a roadway there may be more following.

Editorial Letters to the Editor Journalism Requires Access A Thank You from Brookhaven Supervisor For journalism to be effective in not only covering the events of the day, but also uncovering mistruth and misdeed, it requires access to people and records. As local journalists, that usually means sitting in an interview or talking on the phone with our local school district, village and town officials, as well as our local, state and federal representatives and officials. More often, though, we find a certain lack of ... well, frankly, the ability to connect with some of them. This issue needs to be addressed. Journalism is financially struggling, locally and nationally. Advertising dollars have plummeted, and staffing is short on people. The Pew Research Center has reported print circulation for weekday papers was down nationally by 8 percent for 2018 over the previous year, and 9 percent for Sunday papers. So, as newspapers struggle to maintain current standing, access to information from all these local sources is now at a premium. Too often, information is withheld, embargoed or stymied. Though it is more rare, some officials resort to tactics of intimidation to prevent the release of information. Some sources are afraid to comment on issues for fear of public retaliation. Cases of great importance, like that of the ongoing health issues at the Northport Middle School, have bureaucratic hurdles that include using public relations firms as contact people. Something as simple as getting an official’s comments or requesting documents through the Freedom of Information Law can often become problematic. It seems to take more work than it has in years before. In modern times, the number of public relations professionals only seems to increase, while the number of journalists decline. Bloomberg News wrote this year there are six PR professionals for every one journalist working in the field. This is up from a less than two-to-one ratio just 20 years ago. If you were to check our inboxes, you would likely have to shield your eyes from the blinding number of emails we receive daily from PR firms. That is not to say we oppose these professionals. They are often a very useful and necessary component of business. And a good PR person can make a reporter’s work a little bit easier. But of course, that’s only when good things are happening. When there are issues, we often find communications professionals actively make getting even simple comments from officials that much harder. We as journalists often prefer to speak directly to officials when the need arises. That’s what the public expects. We thank the many people who have worked with us on stories, both public officials and spokespersons alike, but we also ask everyone to understand the importance of the press, often regarded as the fourth pillar of democracy, even at the levels closest to the community. Restricting access to even the smallest bits of information hinders the effectiveness of government by the people. It’s problematic for both the journalist and the municipal body that maintains government operations. In the great tug of war match between journalists and officials over information, the knot in the rope should always land on the public’s side of the line, and our role is to be the watchdog for the people. We thank the officials and communication specialists who honor that premise and work diligently to uphold high standards. Our world is a better place when that happens.

Letters … We welcome your letters. They should be no longer than 400 words and may be edited for length, libel, style and good taste. We do not publish anonymous letters. Please include a phone number and address for confirmation. Email letters to rita@tbrnewsmedia.com or mail them to The Village Times Herald, P.O. Box 707, Setauket, NY 11733.

With Election Day behind us, I would like to thank the voters of Brookhaven who elected me for the fifth time as their town supervisor by 62 percent to 38 percent. I am deeply appreciative for their faith and support in my administration and intend to use this mandate to continue my work with the town board to keep Brookhaven moving forward. Among my top priorities will be to continue to strengthen our town’s finances, maintaining our AAA bond

rating and holding the line on taxes by complying with our tax cap and debt cap. Over the past seven years, our town board has preserved hundreds of acres of land and preserved the character of our neighborhoods for generations to come. My administration will continue to clean up our underground and surface waters and prevent overdevelopment. Equally as important is reducing the cost of government through consolidation and shared services, and working with all

levels of government to bring down the cost to our taxpayers. Finally, through strategic planning, we can work smarter to develop thriving downtown main street centers, attract new tech industries and strengthen our economy by creating long-term, high-paying jobs. Thank you again for your support. I will work every day on behalf of all the residents of the Town of Brookhaven. Ed Romaine Town of Brookhaven Supervisor

Zeldin Should Denounce Stephen Miller Over the past week, calls for the resignation of White House senior adviser Stephen Miller have grown. This is because the Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization dedicated to fighting hate and bigotry, obtained Miller’s emails that highlighted his affinity for white nationalist sources and texts in his communications with Breitbart News. The emails reveal that Miller promoted sources including the white supremacist journal American Renaissance and the French novel “The Camp of the Saints,” which depicts immigrants as “savages.” Breitbart disseminated this propaganda, which fed their white nationalist readership’s appetite for hate. It should be noted that Miller is the architect of Trump’s anti-immigration policies, including migrant and asylum seekers family separation at our southern border. There has been an outcry from the Congressional Black, Hispanic, Asian

Pacific American and Progressive House caucuses for Miller to resign. They accurately state that white supremacists have no business serving in a presidential administration and crafting policy that affects millions of people. Our own 1st District representative, U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley), has remained silent on this matter. Zeldin is on the record defending Miller and attacking Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who correctly and accurately called Miller a white nationalist. In an April 2019 tweet, Zeldin accused Omar of “attacking Jewish people,” weaponizing his and Miller’s Jewish heritage for cover of her legitimate criticism. I call upon Zeldin to publicly apologize to Omar for his unfounded attacks on her. She was correct in calling out Miller’s white nationalist views. I also call upon our congressman to denounce Breitbart for spreading this kind of hate. Zeldin has himself contributed articles to Breitbart and has had former Breitbart

executive chairman, Steve Bannon, as a headliner at his congressional fundraiser in December 2017. Last but not least, Zeldin should join the chorus of voices calling for the resignation of Miller. As one of two Jewish House Republicans, Zeldin has a unique responsibility to reject white nationalism, instead of abiding and cozying up to it, as he has done. Anything short of this would be deeply immoral and hypocritical, and a betrayal of our district’s values, as well as the congressman’s Jewish heritage. We live in increasingly polarized times, but there should be no disagreement that white nationalism is a danger to our country, and to our democratic ideals. I call upon Zeldin to prioritize morality over party loyalty and publicly denounce Miller, Breitbart and white nationalism, and apologize to his colleague Omar for his unfounded attacks on her.

Thank You to a Good Samaritan We would like to express our thanks and gratitude for Kim who was there when I tripped and fell on the sidewalk by the Setauket United Methodist Church last Friday resulting in a

concussion, facial injury and a complete loss of memory about the incident. You contacted my wife and helped secure my phone, keys, etc. In the confusion, Barbara did not get your full name or

thank you properly. We are most grateful to you for being so kind. Bev and Barbara Tyler East Setauket

Opinion

Music Serves as Inspiration, Companion on the Nostalgia Treadmill

have been working out at a gym, where my routine consists mostly of pushing my body as long as I can on a treadmill, bike or elliptical machine until my sweat has soaked through my T-shirt. I play mind games while I’m running, telling myself that I can take a break once I get to 3 miles, or maybe 4 or closer to 5. Each time I hit a milestone, I think about how D. None much better I’ll feel if I can go of the above just a bit farther, BY DANIEL DUNAIEF even as I’m taking an inventory of all the barking body parts, which typically includes my knees and back.

What helps get me over the hump lately, though, is the music I listen to as I work out. I started with a collection of ’80s songs, hoping, perhaps, that the combination of familiar tunes from my youth would make my body remember the energy that deﬁned this younger period. As I was running, the songs reminded me of the times I danced with friends at Ward Melville High School, played Uno in a friend’s living room or decorated a Christmas tree with another friend who patiently showed a group of us how to thread popcorn and cranberries through a line. As I was running, a montage of these images played through my head, making me feel as if my legs were turning back the clock. Fortunately, no one at my gym looks closely at me or my facial expressions, so I could indulge in musical — and life — nostalgia without interruption or without questions from people wondering what I was thinking as I reacted to people who have long since

gone their separate ways. For a few days, I switched to my favorite singer, Billy Joel. Hearing the words from “Only The Good Die Young,” “Piano Man,” and “Movin’ Out,” brought me back to the study breaks I took in high school when I stared out the window between my house and the neighbor’s colorful Santa sleigh down the street, hoping that the snow forecast for that evening was sufﬁcient to close school the next day. I’m planning to see Billy Joel in concert before too long, so I switched to another genre, playing the soundtrack from the original 1975 version of the musical, “A Chorus Line.” While others rarely cite it as one of their favorite musicals, I know it was the song “Nothing,” in which Diana Morales receives nonstop criticism from her teacher Mr. Karp, that brought to life the magic of Broadway for me. I always measured every other performance, including of musicals like “West Side Story” that I supported by playing

clarinet in the pit orchestra, against the desperate hopes of each of the cast members in a chorus line to “make it” into the show. Eventually, I needed a pulsating beat, so I shifted to exercise music, which, of course, included songs from “Rocky the Musical,” as well as other inspirational films. Each time the beat got faster, I found another pocket of energy that helped me conquer the next mile, using the beat as a metronome for my legs. Music, in all its forms, serves many functions, allowing us to connect with the artist, to travel on an acoustic journey, to remember friends, and to exercise feelings and emotions even as we exercise the rest of our bodies. I coached many sports when my children were younger. If I could do it over again, I would have added contemporary music to mundane practices to spice up the experience in real time and to inspire me on the nostalgia treadmill.

The Last Leg of Our Mediterranean Vacation, Volcanoes and All

hree active volcanoes marked our trip across the Adriatic and then up the Italian coast: Vesuvius, Etna and Stromboli. Mount Vesuvius famously erupted in 79 A.D. and buried at least a thousand people under almost 20 feet of volcanic ash in the towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Mount Vesuvius is regarded as one of the most dangerous volcanoes today because it has the potential to wipe out more than 3 million people in the nearby city of Naples and is under 24-hour Between surveillance. Two you and me of the planet’s BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF tectonic plates are crashing into each other beneath the Earth’s surface, which causes the eruptions. While

there were lots of signs that the volcano was about to erupt at that ancient time, not everyone fled. Yet most of the cities’ inhabitants of some 20,000 did flee, to survive and resettle up and down the coast. Mount Etna is on the east coast of Sicily, between the cities of Catania and Messina. Stromboli is on the small Sicilian island of the same name and is one of the most active on the planet, erupting almost continuously since 1932. We left our dinner halfway through and watched in fascination from the port side of the ship, on our way through the Strait of Messina, as its high intensity fiery plumes shot up into the night sky. Each glowing emission brought an awed chorus from the passengers. The strait’s reputed treacherous conditions may have been the inspiration for the Greek myth of the two sea monsters, Scylla and Charybdis, that gave so much trouble to Odysseus on his way home from the Trojan War. For us it was as calm as a lake. We did spend an afternoon in Sicily and enjoyed the magnificent views from touristy Taormina and Castelmola, the village even

higher up the mountain. Souvenir shops were crowded into the narrow, crooked streets, selling everything from ceramic artifacts and tiles to “The Godfather” T-shirts. Our fantastic luck with the weather continued. The days were sunny and in the 70s. The next stop, on the west side of the Italian peninsula was Sorrento, facing the Bay of Naples, with more glorious jewel-like views from the top of the cliffs. The Italian towns offered a faster pace and more tourists than those on the Dalmatian Coast. And the seafood was more expensive. We were decidedly now in Italy. Taking a bus from the port, we rode over the mountains to the fabled Amalﬁ Coast, where we ate lunch. No matter how many times one might visit this 60-mile stretch of mountainous coastline, the clear blue water and pastel ﬁshing boats, like toys in the sea way below, seductively draw one back for yet another visit. The crowds of whitewashed houses, terraced up the sides of the mountains, the hairpin turns of the coast road that I would

never dream of driving on because I would fall off the mountain as I was drinking in the sights, the crooked streets and cantilevered stairways overhanging the gigantic rocks. The place is better than any postcard. We spent a couple of hours in the town of Amalﬁ, where we exclaimed over the size of the lemons and drank the freshly squeezed lemonade. All too soon, we had to dash back to catch the tender that returned us to the ship, and we were off to Rome, our ﬁnal destination. The city is not on the coast, and so we disembarked from the tidy cruise-and-sailing ship and rode the hour-and-ahalf trip to the capital of Italy. Rome is one of the oldest cities on Earth that has been populated for about 30 centuries, and one could spend endless days viewing everything from ancient ruins to the Vatican, soaking up the history, art and architecture. But, alas, we had no more time left on our vacation, and managed to enjoy one more bowl of pasta followed by one last round of gelato before we took off from Leonardo da Vinci-Fiumicino Airport for home. Ciao Bella!
