Huntington Lighthouse Preservation Society last week began its lighthouse reconstruction. Pictured, workers pour concrete into steel plates around the lighthouse’s base to serve as a base of protection for the beacon. This is phase one of the project, which is expected to take three or four months to complete.

“The one feeling that I’m left with is this immense sense of pride and gratitude that I have, having had the great privilege of serving with some of the finest Americans in some of the worst cases.”

A 21-year-old Huntington man was arrested at around 10:54 a.m. on Nov. 6 for allegedly stealing a wallet containing credit cards between Sept. 26-Sept. 27 from a 2010 Toyota on New York Avenue. He was charged with two counts of petit larceny and three counts of fourth-degree grand larceny.

Cough Drops Stolen A 31-year-old Bay Shore man was arrested in Huntington for allegedly stealing various items from a 7-Eleven on Jericho Turnpike in Commack at around 8:52 p.m. Suffolk police said the man stole scent bombs, Halls cough drops and assorted candy.

Resisting Arrest A 47-year-old Dix Hills man was arrested for allegedly possessing drugs with intent to sell on McCulloch Drive in Dix Hills at around 12:45 p.m. on Nov. 2. Police said that he also failed to control an animal, causing injury to an officer and attempted to resist arrest. He was charged with two counts of second-degree assault, resisting arrest and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance.

Grand Theft Auto An unknown person stole a 2016 Honda Civic from Norma Lane in Dix Hills at around 4 a.m. on Nov. 3, Suffolk police said. Inside the vehicle was a Macbook, designer purse, jewelry and cash, according to police.

Funding Luxury Through Theft A 37-year-old Oyster Bay man was arrested on Nov. 1 for allegedly stealing cash on several occasions. Police said that he stole cash from a location at 2905 Veterans Memorial Highway in Ronkonkoma on Sept. 1 at around 9:30 a.m. The next day at the same location, police said, he stole cash from a pocketbook at around 9 a.m. On Nov. 1 at around 10:40 p.m., police pulled him over in his 2003 Cadillac CTS on Cold Spring Road in Huntington Station for allegedly driving at a high rate of speed while turning through a steady red light, as well as failing to signal lane changes. He was charged with three counts of petit larceny, reckless driving and seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance for prescription medication.

M U S IC Dark Star To Re-create Grateful Dead Experience

Dark Star Orchestra, a 19-year-old Grateful Dead tribute band, is set to bring the live experience of the classic band to The Paramount’s stage on both Nov. 25 and Nov. 26.

SPOTLIGHT By Janee Law jlaw@longislandergroup.com Dark Star Orchestra, a Grateful Dead tribute band, will bring The Paramount to life for two nights next weekend. “We call it lift off, when the room comes alive and everybody is kind of on the same page as everybody, and you can see on their faces that they’re all having a good time,” Dino English, drummer, said. “You see everybody connecting on a visceral level and that’s what I enjoy about performing. It’s all about getting the audience together and making the room come alive.” The seven-member band also consists of Jeff Mattson on lead guitar and vocals; Lisa Mackey on vocals; Rob Koritz on drums; Skip Vangelas on bass guitar and vocals; Rob Eaton on rhythm guitar and vocals; and Rob Barraco on keyboards and vocals. English said that for the two-night show, which is set for Nov. 25 and Nov. 26, the audience can expect something different from what Dark Star Orchestra typically brings to The Paramount, which the band has played at before. “We try to play a different style show every time we go into a place from the last time,” he said. “We keep things fresh for the people who are seeing a repeat of shows.” The band narrows down a list of around 300 songs to find the 20-30 that they perform on any given night.

English joined Dark Star Orchestra in 1999, but the band formed two years earlier with the mission to recreate the Grateful Dead’s live experience. After the Grateful Dead stopped touring in 1995, Dark Star Orchestra wanted to keep the music going. “We all love Grateful Dead music and we wanted to present it and keep the music alive,” English said. “The idea was to give people a place to come see it played at a high standard, and more traditionally in the style of how the Grateful Dead actually played it.” The band’s membership has changed throughout the years, he said. Whenever a position is open, Dark Star Orchestra hosts auditions to find a new member. “We audition people from the whole country to find the best people we could because we started becoming a nationally-touring band,” he said. “With every new person that comes in, the dynamic of the band changes a little bit and we’ve continued to improve along the way.” In regards to their upcoming performance at The Paramount, English said the band members are excited. “The Paramount fans are awesome, they always support us well and we always enjoy playing the room,” he said. “It’s a great crowd for us to play to because they know the music really. The fans in that area are just really knowledgeable about the music and they know how to make that magic happen with the band.” Doors on both Nov. 25 and Nov. 26 open at 7 p.m. The show is expected to begin at 8 p.m. on both nights. Tickets are available at the box office, or from Paramountny.com, for $35-$75.

Madden said to the crowd, “Let us take the opportunity to education ourselves, our children and our grandchildren to celebrate service to this country, to demonstrate the appreciation we have for our military and to dedicate themselves in the name of the many who have come before them. Teach them to stand and salute when our flag passes and to remove their cap and place their hand over their heart not on occasion but every time. Remind them how many have given their lives to keep them free.” The ceremony concluded with a presentation of wreaths, which were placed on the Post 1244 monument by members of the American Legion Post 1244, American Legion Ladies Auxiliary; the Greenlawn Fire Department; the Greenlawn Civic Association; the Greenlawn Lions; Boy Scout Troops 113 and 32 and cub scouts pack 225; Girl Scout Troops 286, 2126, 1900, 2150; and Laura Kasa, in honor of her father, Roger Kasa, a U.S. Army Vietnam War veteran, who passed away over the summer. “Please continue to recognize all veterans locally, in any encounter and in any location with a simple ‘thank you’ or a ‘welcome home,’ ” Madden said. “It will mean more than you know.”

Bake Shop Serving Community For 37 Years Spotlight On

Huntington Businesses By Janee Law jlaw@longislandergroup.com A Rise Above Bake Shop in the heart of Huntington village cooks up a homey atmosphere, with walls decorated in white wallpaper lined with blue flowers, and a vintage display case displaying dishware and baking tools that parallel the delicious aroma of freshly-baked cookies. Everything baked at A Rise Above is made from scratch. The 333 Main Street bakery offers muffins, scones, cookies, pies, Linzer tarts, cakes, brownies, cupcakes and more, and also brews up coffee. “We do everything like they do it at home,” Mary McDonald, owner of the shop, said. “We start really early, baking scones and muffins and get the coffee going.” The day at A Rise Above begins at 7

A Rise Above Bake Shop has been serving the Huntington community for 37 years. a.m., but McDonald said the shop continues to bake throughout the day, filling the needs of whichever items are running low. The 1,000-square-foot bakery has been doing this since 1979, when it first opened under the name of Well Bred Loaf. McDonald managed the store until she bought it in 1986. She and two other co-owners kept the name until five years later when it made the switch to A Rise Above.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

Support Small Business Saturday! The Huntington Township Chamber of Commerce is excited for all the festivities coming up for Nov. 26, when the 7th Annual Holiday Parade and Street Festival will come to Huntington Village. The day’s worth of entertainment and activities starts with Small Business Saturday, continues with Long Island’s Largest Electric Light Parade and features Santa’s arrival at the end of the parade. This year’s Holiday Parade Grand Marshal is Sal Valentinetti, a finalist from America’s Got Talent, and he’s sure to entertain! Don’t miss out on the updated interactive map, which can be accessed online through smart phones and tablets. The map will provide information about participating merchants and any offers they might

have related to Small Business Saturday or the Holiday Parade. Last year, 25 merchants signed up to be a part of the map and offer deals for the holiday season. Any merchant wishing to participate this year can download an application on the town’s website or the Huntington Holiday Facebook page. The chamber is happy to support this event along with our fellow community organizations; Huntington Fire Chief’s Council, Huntington Fire Department, Huntington Manor Fire Department and the Town of Huntington. As a business organization, the chamber is proud to showcase our village merchants and the vibrant downtown community. This holiday season we encourage you to Shop Local and enjoy ‘where the city meets the suburbs!’

Mary McDonald, right, owner of A Rise Above Bake Shop, stands with employee Hana Fulfarr in front of cookies that the bake shop prepared for the day ahead. “We were doing a lot of our own recipes,” McDonald said. “We felt that it was time for us to move on with our own brand.” Now the sole owner of the shop, McDonald said she has seen families grow after serving the Huntington community for 37 years. “You couldn’t ask for a better place to have a small business like this,” McDonald added. “We have really loyal clientele and have been involved in both the good parts of people’s lives and the unfortunate parts.” The shop is also known for its signature sour cream chocolate cake, delicious scones that come in several flavors, like raisin, chocolate chip, and chocolate raspberry, along with seasonal scones, such as fresh apple, and blueberry. And everything is fresh, McDonald said. “Everything that we do is from scratch.” “When we make an apple pie, we peel the apples… It’s not canned apples,” she added.

business What’s Next For The Financial Markets? By Peter J. Klein, CFA, CRPS, CAP pklein@hightoweradvisors.com Well, I guess one thing we know for sure from last week’s election night shocker is that polling professionals, in the words of Ricky Ricardo, “Have a lot of explaining to do.” It seems like it is Brexit all over again, which is interesting because markets reacted favorably after an initial sharp correction. Though, I think that the euphoria post-exit was/is a little off-base. For those of you who may have been living in a cave the last week, let me brief you: Donald Trump unexpectedly won the U.S. Presidential election, but, additionally, the Republican Party took control of both houses of Congress, effectively resulting in a “Republican Sweep.” This sweep likely creates a more accommodative government for Trump to enact his policies. However, given his divisive campaign comments toward Republicans, it is unclear how he’ll engage Congress, and if the relationship will remain combative. OK, so now that you have been briefed, allow me to un-pack the implications of a Trump administration/post-election going forward from the lens of the markets: On the positive side of the ledger we have: •The election is over. •Under a Trump administration we are likely to see reduced regulations and reduced taxes. •The infrastructure and pharmaceutical sectors are likely good sectors to overweight. •A full GOP government is typically liked by markets. On the negative side of the ledger: •Trump is an unknown. His policies are not fully known and we will have to see what they are as he brings them out. Markets do not like uncertainty •The Fed: Will Janet Yellen stay on? Who would replace her? Will

rates move much higher in face of increased deficit spending? •Increased deficit spending? •Can Trump put together a good cabinet of leaders? Who would be Treasury secretary? •Can his anti-trade policies lead to a global recession? Are there Geo-political risks? •An un-divided government leading to one way policies – checks and balances absent. Remember what I have said time and time again, there has been many seminal studies on the no. 1 determinant of investor success. It is not the occupant of the White House, not the Fed policies, not future earnings growth, or new markets or new industries. It is what you pay for the investment upon entering it, the valuation. And, as of now, we are still seeing cautionary signs flashing yellow on every metric of valuation out there. This has been and still is the reason for my cautious approach. That said, the old adage rings true: “There is always a Bull Market somewhere.” And, to that end, I suggest continued focus on the search for special situations where the risk-adjusted returns are solidly in your favor.

Following the parade will be the tree lighting ceremony and performances by Valentinetti, who goes by the nickname “Sal the Voice,” and “The North Shore Pops.” The festival will be held on Wall Street, as children get their faces painted, visit Santa Claus, play in bounce houses, or warm up with a free cup of hot chocolate.

y t i n u m m co Local Vets Celebrate Marines’ Birthday Just one day before Veterans Day, members of the Marine Corps League of Huntington, Detachment 792, came together to celebrate an occasion dating back to before our nation was formed. It was the birthday of the United State Marine Corps. “We’re 241 years old today. We call this the ‘Passing of Tradition,’ ” said Howard Blackmore, who served two tours in Vietnam from 1966-1968. He said that, in this tradition, the oldest marine cuts the celebratory cake halfway with the sword, and the youngest marine continues the cut. This symbolizes passing down the Marine Corps’ tradi-

The Marine Corps was first established in 1775. Local vets celebrated its 241st birthday last Thursday.

tions from one generation to the next. “From the oldest to the youngest, and then he will continue this and this has been continued for 241 years,” Blackmore said. At the celebration last Thursday at Finnegan’s Restaurant and Tap Room in Huntington village, the oldest marine was 75-year-old William Ober, past commandant of the MCL from 2004-2014. “It’s to pass on our traditions from one generation to the next,” said Ober, who’s been living in the town for the past 48 years. He served in Cuba from 1961-1967. He’s also the chairman of the board of Veterans Advisory Committee for the Town of Huntington, as of last year. As he cut the cake, he passed the sword along to 40-year-old Tim Kraus, of East Northport. Kraus served from 1995-1999, and was based in Albania in 1997. He’s also retired from the New York City Police Department. Tommy Forte, manager of Finnegan’s, said the pub has served as the “headquarters” for local Marines for the past 10 years, ever since Blackmore first approached Forte to use the space for the celebration. “I said, ‘Sure, come on down.’And it’s been a tra- William Ober, past commandant of the Marine Corps dition now for 10 years,” Forte said. “This country League of Huntington, cuts the cake halfway to pass on to wouldn’t be here without the Marines.” the sword to the youngest member.
