On Friday, January 27, 2023 Colonial Youth and Family Services celebrated their 50th anniversary at Sunset Harbour Club in East Patchogue. Colonial has been a grassroots agency within the William Floyd School District for half a century now, and continues to meet the needs of this community with its programs. The evening was filled with recognizing outgoing Board President, Mr. William K. Miller as well as installing the new officers for 2023. President Nancy Marks, Vice President, Peter Costelloe, Secretary, Constance Pellechia, and Treasurer, Carmella CurraoMacAleavy. Colonial thanked the community for continued support of their programs and fundraising efforts.
Funding will keep people in their homes
Supervisor Ed Romaine has announced that the Towns of Brookhaven and Babylon will share additional funding of up to $2 million from Suffolk County as part of the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERA-2). The program was created to address the unmet needs of eligible Town of Brookhaven tenants and landlords. In a letter, the Supervisor requested to have the NYS Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance (OTDA) return the money to the Emergency Rental Assistance Program application portal, which is controlled by NYS OTDA for the benefit of Brookhaven residents.
It is estimated that the reallocated funds can help an additional 80 to 100 eligible households that need assistance to pay for rental arrears and
prospective rent.
Supervisor Romaine said, “The pandemic is behind us, but there are still many Brookhaven Town residents who are experiencing residual economic hardship. The additional funds are available, and we will do whatever we can to provide assistance so they can stay in their homes. We helped a lot of people in need. Now,
we have the opportunity to help even more people thanks to the assistance by Suffolk County.”
In his letter, Supervisor Romaine stressed the urgency of his request since the moratorium on evictions in New York State expired on January 15, 2022. To date, approximately 3,000 Brookhaven Town residents have been assisted using ERAP funding.
On January 23, Councilwoman Jane Bonner attended the Coram Civic Association (CSA) meeting held at the Coram Fire Department headquarters. During the meeting, the Councilwoman participated in the swearingin of the officers for 2023. The Coram Civic Association is a group of community members from varied backgrounds who are working together toward a common goal as reflected in their mission statement: “To offer a unified voice while working toward bettering the quality of life in Coram.”

Relations Erma Gluck; President Kareem Nugdalla; Membership Director Vana McClure; Executive Secretary Craig Pessin; Director of Land Use and Beautification Gary Levoli; Councilwoman Jane Bonner and Suffolk County Legislator Dominick Thorne.
Councilwoman Bonner said, “It was my pleasure to swear in the officers of the Coram Civic Association. They are an important part of the community, and their members always engage in a lively and informative discussion. If people want to make a difference, I encourage them to get involved and join their local civic associations.”
The William Floyd School District has appointed Matthew Sanders as the next Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources & Administration effective July 1, 2023. Mr. Sanders, who currently serves as the principal of William Floyd Middle School, was selected after an extensive search and rigorous interview process. He will take over for Janet Gilmor, who is retiring at the end of this school year after serving successfully in this role for the past 19 years. His appointment was approved at last night’s Board of Education meeting.
Mr. Sanders, who is completing his 20th year serving the students and residents of the William Floyd school community, is currently in his fourth year as the principal of William Floyd Middle School. In this role, he serves as the administrative and instructional leader of more than 150 faculty and staff members for a middle school population of approximately 1,100 students in grades six, seven and eight. Throughout his tenure, he
has also served as an assistant principal at William Floyd High School, a special education teacher, an extracurricular advisor, a union representative and a coach.
“Mr. Sanders is a natural selfdirected learner who possesses unique talents in instructional and administrative leadership capacities,” said Kevin M. Coster, Superintendent of Schools, William Floyd School District. “His strong character and great moral compass have earned him a well-deserved reputation as an
amazing principal. As a leader with great capacity, he has raised the level and quality of leadership in all areas that he has been associated with during his tenure in our district.”
As the Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources & Administration, Mr. Sanders will lead all functions of human resources for the district, and will serve as a critical liaison in support of the district’s instructional and business functions. He will deal with the inner workings of
employee relations, maintaining compliance with BOE policies and state regulations, and ensuring a collaborative and interdependent relationship with all offices throughout the district. He will also work to ensure that the district continues to recruit and develop a highly-qualified workforce, negotiate employee conditions and contracts; oversee, with the Human Resources staff, the hiring of all new employees including fingerprinting and background checks; as well as supervise the Security department with the Director of Human Resources. Additional roles include supervision of the Nurses’ unit, serving as the district’s COVID coordinator, working with the district’s legal team, serving as the liaison between outside organizations such as the Family Service League’s William Floyd Family Center and the Mastic & Shirley Community Emergency Food Pantry, and so much more.
“The William Floyd School District is a great place to learn and work, and I am grateful for the
opportunity to continue serving the district and community,” said Mr. Sanders. “I am extremely excited to work with the Board of Education, the Superintendent of Schools and his leadership team, along with the Human Resources staff and my colleagues across the district, in this new capacity to help William Floyd continue on its upward trajectory.”
Mr. Sanders earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in special education from Providence College, his Master of Arts in liberal studies from Stony Brook University and holds advanced certificates in school building leadership and school district leadership from Stony Brook University.
“Together, this governance team of the William Floyd Board of Education and the senior leadership team, along with the dedication of our faculty and staff, the William Floyd School District has achieved new and unprecedented heights; and, we believe that Mr. Sanders will be an excellent addition,” added Mr. Coster.
Friends and supporters of Assemblyman Joe DeStefano gathered last week to celebrate his election to a third term as a state representative.
“l appreciate everyone who made my reelection possible, including the voters who showed their faith in me for another two years as their voice in Albany,” DeStefano said. “I re-emphasized my commitment to fight for safer
communities, less government infringement in our lives— especially high taxes and regulations—and get our economy back on track by targeting inflation and the detrimental energy policies and wasteful spending of the Progressive agenda.
“Many thanks go out to the community organizations and employee unions who have been behind me since day one
and know l will always bring their fight to Albany for a more affordable and productive Empire State.”
The Assemblyman gave special thanks to GOP Chairman Jesse Garcia who served as the event’s MC at Cosimos Restaurant in East Patchogue, as well as Senator Dean Murray, Suffolk Legislator Dominick Thorne, County Clerk Vince Puleo, and Brookhaven Councilman Mike

Not wanting Long Island to look like New York City by giving state bureaucrats the ability to force multi-family housing project on local communities, officials from Nassau and Suffolk voiced their opposition at a Hauppauge press conference on Friday.
Responding to a plan unveiled by Gov. Kathy Hochul in her recent State of the State address, state and local leaders warned of the dangers of adding up to 800,000 units to Long Island’s housing stock.
“Creating a Super
Zoning Board controlled by the state would have dramatic consequences for our neighborhoods,” said Assemblyman Joe DeStefano in speaking out against the governor’s intentions for local towns and villages. “Cranking up multifamily housing like we see in New York City would have a disastrous effect on our environment, traffic, schools, and property values, not to mention the crime rate which is already at unacceptable levels.”
“"There is no doubt that we
have an affordable housing problem on Long Island and in New York State, however, I believe the best way to tackle the problem is by working with local officials to help find solutions, not imposing mandates on local officials that will likely cause more problems," said Senator Dean Murray, who attended the press conference with fellow representatives Mario Mattera, Tony Palumbo, and Alexis Weik, along with Assembly members Mike Fitzpatrick, Ed Flood and Jodi Giglio.
“Under Governor Hochul’s plan, every town, village and county overnight would lose the important zoning protections that keep them from looking like the crowded neighborhoods of the Bronx, Queens and Brooklyn. That’s not what the residents of Brookhaven Town want. This wrongheaded plan will not solve our affordable housing plan, but it will devalue the homes and quality of life in our neighborhoods,” said Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine, who was joined by town Councilman Dan Panico, alongside Congressman Nick LaLota, county Legislators Jim Mazzarella, Nick Caracappa, and Kevin McCaffrey, the legislature’s presiding officer. The supervisors of Islip, Huntington, Riverhead, and Smithtown also joined in panning the governor’s proposal.
“Unfortunately, state government is populated by Progressive Democrats from the cities who would love to spread their big-government policies to the suburbs,” DeStefano concluded. “Thankfully, we have local officials who are willing to fight them tooth and nail to maintain the character of our neighborhoods.”

The New York State Commission on the Future of the Long Island Power Authority held a series of public hearings in recent months through the LIPA service area—in its far west in the Rockaways, Queens, and in Nassau County then in western Suffolk County and Suffolk’s East End.
With a few exceptions, people speaking at the five hearings strongly supported LIPA becoming what the vision of it was to be when it was established more than three decades ago: a public power utility running the energy grid here and with an elected board of trustees that would be deciding this region’s energy future.
As State Assemblyman Fred W. Thiele, Jr. of Sag Harbor, commission co-chair, declared in an “overview” at the opening of its fifth hearing two weeks ago in Southampton:
“When LIPA was created by the State Legislature back in the 1980s it had two purposes. One purpose was to close the Shoreham nuclear power plant which it did. The second purpose was to replace LILCO with a full public authority. That never happened.” LIPA “did replace” the Long Island Lighting Company, but instead of itself operating the energy system, a “third party-manager” was contracted to do that—KeySpan, National Grid and currently PSEG.
“It’s the only third-party manager
[utility] system in the country,” said Thiele. And “based on our experience there must be a reason for that.” LIPA was “never given” a chance to be what it was envisioned. He went on: “You know the failures that we’ve seen with the third-party manager system.”
After tropical storm Isaias struck in 2020, not only did many LIPA customers lose power, some for more than a week, but PSEG’s communications systems failed— LIPA customers were unable to find out what was going on—and the commission was subsequently set up.
Its task, as the commission says on its website, is to “develop and present to the legislature an action plan for implementing a true public power model for residents of Long Island and the Rockaways. This means LIPA would directly provide electric service to the more than three million residents and thousands of businesses in its service area without contracting out that responsibility to an investorowned, for-profit utility.”
It continues: “The goal is to avoid the tens of millions of dollars in annual management fees paid for an outside utility; establish greater transparency and clearer lines of accountability for the safe, reliable, and affordable delivery of electricity to ratepayers; and give LIPA’s customers a greater say in how this essential service is provided. The commission is charged with
BY REV. FREDERICK MILLER. PH.D. VETERANS WAYEvery year, American Legion posts nation- wide commemorate the selfless acts of the Four Chaplains on or near Feb. 3, a date designated by Congress in 1948. Through interfaith services, memorial ceremonies and other solemn events, members of the American Legion Family lead their communities in honoring the chaplains and 668 other men who died when the U.S. Dorchester was sunk.
The relatively new chaplains all held the rank of first lieutenant. They included Methodist minister George L. Fox, Rabbi Alexander D. Goode (PhD), Catholic priest John P. Washington, and Reformed Church of America minister Clark V. Poling. The four chaplains met at the Army Chaplains School at Harvard University where they were prepared for assignments in the European theater, sailing on board Dorchester to their new assignments.
George Lansing Fox was born on March 15, 1900 in Pennsylvania. He joined the Army at the age of 17 and served in World War I as
a medical corps assistant; He was highly decorated for bravery and was awarded the Silver Star, Purple Heart and the French Croix de Guerre. Upon his discharge he completed high school and entered Moody Bible Institute. He was ordained a Methodist minister in 1934. He served parishes in Vermont, and was appointed state chaplain and historian for the American Legion in Vermont. In 1942, Fox volunteered to serve as an Army chaplain and began active duty on August 8, 1942. His son enlisted in the Marines the same day.
Alexander David Goode was born in Brooklyn, New York on May 10, 1911, the son of Rabbi Hyman Goodekowitz. He received his PhD from Johns Hopkins University in 1940. He joined the Army, receiving his appointment as chaplain in and was appointmed as chaplain on July 21, 1942.
Clark Vandersail Poling was born on August 7, 1910 in Ohio, the son of minister Daniel A. Poling. He entered the Army at the outbreak of World War II wanting to face the
conducting public hearings, forming and collaborating with an advisory committee of resident stakeholders, and ultimately reporting to the legislature on the specific actions, legislation, and timeline necessary to restructure LIPA into a true publicly owned public authority.” It notes that the “commission is bipartisan” and “comprising four senators and four assembly members” from the LIPA service area.
The fault for not allowing elections of LIPA board trustees involves a Democratic governor of New York— Mario Cuomo, and a Republican one—George Pataki. Cuomo put off elections of LIPA trustees and Pataki formalized that with appointment of the nine trustees. The trustees are
named by the governor, State Senate majority leader and State Assembly speaker, none of whom are from the LIPA service area, Thiele noted.
As to third-party managers brought in to operate the LIPA grid, there was London, England-based National Grid after it acquired KeySpan in 2006. Its LIPA contract was not renewed after 90% of LIPA customers lost electricity when Superstorm Sandy hit in 2012. Mario Cuomo’s son, Andrew, as governor, then brought in PSEG (Public Service Enterprise Group) based in Newark, New Jersey.
Testimony of speakers at the five hearings included, in December in Smithtown, that of Billy Roberti, a member of the Huntington
Town Advisory Committee on Energy Efficiency, Renewables and Sustainability, who said the present system with PSEG as “a middleman between the customer and LIPA does not work.” Monique Fitzgerald of North Bellport, climate justice organizer for the Long Island Progressive Coalition, said “PSEG and their shareholders are only here for profits.” At the hearing in Rockaway, also in December, Joan Flynn, representing Rockaway Women for Progress, said with establishment of LIPA “the idea was to create a democratic entity to manage and plan for power on the island and champion safe, clean, renewable energy….It saddens me and makes me angry to think that corporate greed won out over the well-being of the citizens of Long Island and Rockaway. However, this commission gives us the chance to return to the vision of energy democracy.” One speaker at the hearing in Southampton, Kevin Schrage, an East Moriches electrical contractor, spoke out against election of LIPA trustees and advocated a return to a private model saying “look at the MTA” (Metropolitan Transportation Authority) as an example of government inadequacy. Can the dream of a true and democratic public utility here now be reached? PSEG will be lobbying hard in coming months against this, but it’s more possible now than it has been for years.
evacuation of the ship, and helped guide wounded men to safety. As life jackets were passed out to the men, the supply ran out before each man had one. The chaplains removed their own life jackets and gave them to others. They helped as many men as they could into lifeboats, and then linked arms and, saying prayers and singing hymns, and went down with the ship.
same dangers as others. His father served as a chaplain in World War I. In June 10, 1942 he accepted the appointment as chaplain.
John Patrick Washington was born in Newark, New Jersey on July 18, 1908. He was ordained as a priest on June 15, 1935. Shortly after the Pearl Harbor Attack he received his appointment as a chaplain in the U.S. Army, reporting for active duty on May 9, 1942.
The Dorchester left New York on January 23, 1943, en route to Greenland, carrying the four
chaplains and approximately 900 others, as part of a convoy of three ships. The convoy was escorted by three Coast Guard Cutters. During the early morning hours of February 3, 1943, at 12:55 am, the vessel was torpedoed by the German submarine U-223 off Newfoundland in the North Atlantic. The torpedo knocked out the electric system leaving the ship in the dark. Panic set in among the men on board, many of them trapped below decks. The chaplains sought to calm the men and organize an orderly
Only 230 of the 904 men aboard the ship were rescued. Life jackets offered little protection from hypothermia, which killed most men in the water. The temperature was 34F and the air temperature was 36F. By the time additional rescue ships arrived, “hundreds of dead bodies were seen floating on the water kept up by their life jackets.”
“BACK TO GOD – FOUR CHAPLAINS REMEMBRANCE”
Ceremony here in Suffolk County will be held on Sunday, February 19, 2023 at 2:00 p.m. at TEMPLE BETH EL located at 45 Oak Street Patchogue. This ceremony is sponsored and run by the Suffolk County American Legion.
As sports fans we always seem to wax poetic about underdogs and Cinderella teams, but there is a purity when the best team plays the best team. That is exactly what we will get with Super Bowl LVII, as both #1 seeds will play for the championship in Arizona.
The NFC will be represented by the Philadelphia Eagles. Philly cruised to a win against a San Francisco team that was down to their 4th string QB. They also played a very uninspired schedule down the stretch but were the clear best team in the conference since opening day. The Eagles had 18 to 1 odds to win the NFC in the preseason and a win total set at just nine wins. Quarterback Jalen Hurts was the leading candidate to win the MVP award before his late season injuries. In fact heading into week 15 he was -250 to win the award, now he is well behind Patrick Mahomes.
The Eagles have some young and exciting skill position players with former Heisman Trophy winner DeVonta Smith and their
big offseason trade brought in AJ Brown, but this team lives and dies with their power running game. The Eagles will try to keep the ball on the ground and keep Mahomes on the sidelines. Philadelphia's Offensive line is the best in the league and the Chiefs can be susceptible to big runs in the middle of their line. Defensively the Eagles are going to bring pressure all game. They led the league in sacks and pressure rate. Early in the season teams were able to run on them, but they brought in veterans to help clog that hole and it has been effective.
The Chiefs hosted yet another AFC Championship game at Arrowhead in Kansas City as they are building a modern day dynasty resume. The Chiefs were the co-favorites to win the Super Bowl, along with Buffalo, in the preseason and lived up to all of the hype. Patrick Mahomes is generally considered the best player in the sport and he lived up to those lofty expectations this year as well. He is the overwhelming favorite to win the MVP award after a sensational
season. Mahomes though was hobbled in the AFC Championship with an ankle injury he suffered in the Divisional round. He still threw for 300+ yards, but with two weeks he should look even better for the big game.
The running game has never been a big part of the Chiefs game plan, so although that is a vulnerable part of the Eagles defense Kansas City and their running back from Rutgers Pacheco are ill equipped to take advantage of that. Which means more of Mahomes going to the air. After losing Tyreek Hill in
the off season most analysts weren't sure how the Chiefs offense would look this year. They have gone to more short routes and quick passes, which fits tight end Travis Kelce really well. Kelce has been nearly unstoppable this postseason, hitting his reception totals and yards over in both playoff games. Kadarious Toney, Mecole Hardman and Ju ju Smith Schuster all were missing from the last game because of injuries and the time off should help to get this receiving core back on track.
Defensively the Chiefs had a great
pass rush against a weak Bengals offensive line and that could be a big difference for the Super Bowl. Kansas City will need to figure out a way to get to Jalen Hurts and disrupt things against the stout Eagles front. An X factor here for the Chiefs might be the coaching experience where Andy Reid is climbing the list for best coach of all time. But, it's the ex New York Giant defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo that will have to get creative and disrupt the Eagles offense.
When the best meet the best you expect the best game possible and the line makers agree this Super Bowl could be a classic. We have two star QBs who should end the season ranked #1 and #2 in the MVP race. We have both top seeds battling it out and great matchups all over the field. That is why the line opened up with the Eagles -1 in most books and experts predict that line might close as a true pick em. A coin flip, evenly matched game to decide it all. Forget about the Cinderella's, this is what football fans deserve.

Elijah’s name in Hebrew means “My God is Yahweh” and is applied to him because of his challenge to the worship of the pagan god Baal. In the 9th Century BC the Kingdom of Israel which was once united under Solomon divided into the Northern Kingdom of Israel and the Southern Kingdom of Judah.
Under Ahab’s Kingship tensions increased. Ahab built a temple for Baal and his wife Jezebel brought a large entourage of priests and prophets of Baal into the country. With this backdrop Elijah is introduced in I Kings 17:1 as “Elijah the Tishbite.” He warns Ahab that there will be years of Catastrophe “so severe that not even dew will form,” because Ahab and his Queen “stand at the end of the line of the Kings of Israel who are said to have done evil in the sight of the Lord.”
Jezebel had been enraged that Elijah had killed Baal’s prophets and threatens to kill him. Elijah
flees to Beersheba in Judah and is fed bread and water by an angel so that he is strong enough to travel forty days and forty nights to Mount Horeb where Moses had received the Ten Commandments. There Yahweh sends him to Damascus to anoint Hazael as King of Aram, Jehu as king of Israel, and Elisha as his replacement.
After Elijah’s confrontation with Ahab, God tells him to flee out of Israel to a hiding place by the brook Chorath east of the Jordan River where he is fed by ravens. After the brook dries up God dispatches him to a widow living in the town of Zarephath in Phoenicia. When Elijah finds her and asks for food, she says she can’t give him any because she doesn’t have enough for her and her son. Elijah tells her that God will not let her supply of flour and oil run out. She feeds him the last of her food and miraculously the prophet’s promise comes true.
At Jewish circumcision ceremonies a chair is set aside
or rituals the rabbis would set aside any decision “until Elijah comes.”
Elijah makes an appearance in the New Testament during an incident known as the Transfiguration. At the summit of an unnamed mount Jesus begins to radiate great luminance. The Apostles Peter, James, and John who are with him hear the voice of the Father announce “Behold, My beloved Son.” Moses and Elijah appear and begin talking to Jesus. Peter is so struck by the experience that he asks Jesus if they could build three tabernacles: one for Jesus, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
for the use of the prophet Elijah. Elijah is said to be a witness at all circumcisions when the sign of the covenant is placed upon the body of the child. In Talmudic
literature Elijah would visit rabbis to help solve particularly difficult legal problems. When confronted with reconciling impossibly conflicting laws
Poetry is a literary work in which special intensity is given to the expression of feelings and ideas using a distinctive style and rhythm. In this column which premiers in this week’s edition I will present poetry. The poem I offer today is a poetic epitaph of a man who had no home and relied on the charity of passersby to survive.
He set up station in front of a dollar store in the Shirley Plaza. He was a gentle, cheerful person who always had kind words for those who provided him with alms. People would give him money, food, and clothing to help him subsist.
Late last year he apparently died of a brain aneurysm. Something must be done for the homeless in our area, especially during the severe winter months. Thank God for the people with the compassion to help them. This poem is dedicated to this poor man,

In Islam, Elijah appears in the Quran as a prophet and messenger of God where his biblical narrative of preaching against the worshippers of Baal is recounted in a concise for. Elijah is referenced in many organized religions. He is invariably regarded as the greatest of all the prophets.
Each year, the Department of Health will release updated resource and income levels for the Medicaid program. This year there has been a significant increase. Beginning January 1, 2023, New York State will be increasing the asset limits for community and nursing home Medicaid and income limits for community Medicaid.
For both community (home health aides) and chronic (nursing home) Medicaid, the available asset limit for 2023 is being increased to $28,133 for an individual applicant (the former asset limit for 2022 was $16,800) and $37,902 for a married couple (up from $24,600), allowing Medicaid applicants to retain significantly more assets and still be eligible for Medicaid.
The income limit for
community Medicaid applicants is being increased from $934/ month to $1,563/month for individual applicants and for married couples the income limit is being increased from $1,367/month to $2,106/month.
As for nursing home Medicaid applicants, the monthly income limit will continue to be $50, but the income limit for the noninstitutionalized spouse is being increased to $3,715/month.
Individuals applying for Medicaid benefits after January 1, 2023, should apply based on the asset and income limits discussed above. For those individuals who are already receiving community Medicaid and are using a pooled trust for their excess monthly income, your monthly budget/spenddown will remain the same until you recertify, at which time the increased income limits will
be applied. However, starting in January 2023 Medicaid recipients may ask their local Medicaid office to re-budget their spend-down based on

the new income limits before their next renewal, enabling community Medicaid recipients to keep more of their monthly income sooner.
While the asset allowance has been increased, keep in mind that the five-year lookback period for nursing home Medicaid still applies, which means that any transfer of assets made within this period for below market value will incur a penalty period and Medicaid coverage will commence only after the penalty period has elapsed.
*Please note, the income and assets are based on the 2022 Poverty Level. This is subject to change based on the 2023 Poverty Level.
