This is the first in a four part series.

I started WWOOFing this past spring, and no, I do not mean I acquired a new pastime of barking like a dog. I joined a movement that is gaining worldwide momentum and, in some way, is a reminder of the days when joining the Peace Corps was all the rage. I walked through my fear; left my home, family and friends, and entered the world of farming in rural New England.

Along with my little dog, Charles Crawford, I boarded the Port Jefferson ferry, kissed suburbia goodbye for several months and embraced a self-imposed challenge that would change me, my value system and perceptions about the world forever.

WWOOF-USA is an entity that gives people the opportunity to work and live on farms throughout the United States and is rapidly injecting awareness into our culture about sustainable living and helping our nation rid itself of an extremely self-entitled and wasteful mindset. One of their key goals is to integrate farming, food, culture and environment.

The WWOOF program began in the United Kingdom in 1971, by Sue Coppard ,under the name “Working Weekends on Organic Farms,” as an opportunity for London city dwellers to experience the growing organic farming evolution in the countryside. Her idea blew wind onto a smoldering brush fire, and today, WWOOF programs, currently known as “Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms,” has expanded to more than 100 countries, each acting independently.

Becoming a WWOOFer is rather simple. One registers online and then arranges their stay with a host family. The website is extremely user friendly and feedback from other WWOOFer’s is inclusive. A prospective WWOOFer’s key task is to identify exactly what type of experience they wish to have, whether it is comprehensive organic farming, working with animals or beekeeping, and of course what part of the world they wish to have this experience in.

The riptide that was my final motivation to embark on this journey was sudden, but the ebb and flow of the currents encouraging me to have this experience were occurring for years.

As a music lover and journalist, I have the privilege of witnessing some of the most creative music being produced. As a result of being a part of the Grateful Dead community for as far back as I can remember, I have had the opportunity to be exposed to bluegrass and roots genres.

In recent years, I can, without reservation, say that I have become a dedicated fan of bands like The Infamous Stringdusters, Greensky Bluegrass, Carolina Chocolate Drops and my ultimate favorite, Railroad Earth.

This affinity has lend itself to meeting some of the most down-to-earth, creative and impassioned people in the country.

Coming from all walks in life, I found that there was a common denominator, a thread that linked them all together — their love for the earth and their desire to experience nature in the here-and-now.

One such couple’s adventures, Melanie and Matt, whom I now count among my closest friends, became the template for my expedition.

I started to pay close attention to their travels, observed them via social media, living and WWOOFing off the grid in Kodiak, Alaska. I admired their tenacity as they boated amongst whales, built greenhouses and preserved fruit. They were standing in the middle of their dreams and living with freedom and purpose. Their return to New England to run Tracie’s Community Farm, a small, organic farm in Fitzwilliams, New Hampshire, provoked a visit, and it was here I witnessed firsthand the meaning of “the good life” and how it had been hubristic of me to keep walking down a road to “someday.” I quickly noted that my “someday” had arrived and it was time to step out of my comfort zone and follow in their footsteps.

And so my Thoreau-like journey commenced. I started to hike with the Adirondack Mountain Club in the Catskills and began my planning to become a WWOOFer.

Chrysler’s Chrysler to be guest of honor at Vanderbilt car show

Above photo courtesy of Howard Kroplick; photos below by Howard Kroplick

Above, Howard Kroplick in his 1937 Chrysler at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance; below, the dashboard and rear interior of the car.

Walter P. Chrysler’s, custom-built, one-of-a-kind, 1937 Chrysler Imperial C-15 LeBaron Town Car – after an exquisite restoration that led to a major international award – will return to the Suffolk County Vanderbilt Museum, 180 Little Neck Road, Centerport where it will be exhibited at a classic car show.

The Chrysler was a 1959 gift to the museum from collector Harry Gilbert of Huntington, New York. The car, since it was not part of the Vanderbilt family’s original collections and holdings, was de-accessioned from the museum collection decades ago.

The museum held an auction in January 2012 and the car was purchased by Howard Kroplick of East Hills, an author, historian and collector of vintage cars. With the proceeds, the museum established an endowment for the care and maintenance of the Vanderbilt archives, collections and exhibitions.

Kroplick first showed the unrestored Chrysler in June 2012, at the Greenwich Concours d’Elegance in Connecticut,

where it won the People’s Choice award for the “ultimate barn find.” He began restoring the car in November 2013.

Most of the work was performed by Steve Babinsky, who runs Automotive Restorations in Lebanon, New Jersey.

After a comprehensive, 17-month restoration, Kroplick entered the Chrysler in the world’s pre-eminent classic car show, the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance held in Monterey, California.

“Only 281 of the 750 cars that applied were accepted,” he said. The Chrysler won the First in Class award in the American Classic Closed category. One month later, Gwynne McDevitt, granddaughter of Walter P. Chrysler, and her son, Frank Rhodes Jr., sat in the car at the Radnor Hunt Concours d’Elegance in Malvern, Pennsylvania.

The masterpiece of Art Deco automotive design with coachwork by LeBaron is made of hand-worked aluminum. No factory-produced body panels were used. Details includes leather interior, upholstered seats, and custom

console cabinetry. The 6,300-pound, seven-passenger limousine is 19 feet long and has a 130-horsepower, eightcylinder in-line engine, and a threespeed manual transmission. When Kroplick bought the car, the odometer read 25,501 miles.

Originally, Kroplick said, he hoped to preserve the car as is. “After I bought the Chrysler, it started right away,” he said.

“But when we opened it up, we found that the wooden frame, made of ash, was in bad condition. That’s when I decided to do a complete restoration. That ash frame was one of the project’s biggest challenges.”

The dashboard gauge faces were in good condition and required no work, he said. The snap-on black-canvas cover for the chauffeur’s compartment was replaced. The light-gray, camel-hair wool upholstery also was replaced in the chauffeur’s and passenger compartments.

The passenger-area console cabinetry, made of solid tiger maple, also needed restoration. The console includes a storage space and two glass-fronted cosmetic

compartments. Below the console are two pull-down jump seats, and the passenger seats have upholstered foot rests.

Kroplick said the clock, mounted in the center of the console, worked from the day he bought the car.

Kroplick said the car is believed to be the first to be equipped with springloaded, power-assisted rear windows and door locks, which are operated with cables. “The cables needed reworking so both windows and locks would work with a flip of the front passenger door handle,” he said.

The bumpers, door handles, dashboard knobs, horn ring and hood ornament were re-chromed in Ohio. The finishing touch was five coats of gleaming, hand-rubbed black lacquer. “The experts won’t share trade secrets on how they achieve that stunning mirror finish,” Kroplick said.

The Pebble Beach Concours is more than just an exhibition of classic cars.

“One of part of the judging is that the cars should be roadworthy,” Kroplick said. “As part of the Tour d’Elegance, many of the entrants were driven 85 miles, along the famous 17-mile drive and on the Pacific Coast Highway.”

Although the restoration had been completed just days before the event, he said the Chrysler finished the tour without a problem.

The rare automobile – built for Chrysler’s wife Della – will be the centerpiece of the annual Jaguar Concours d’Elegance and All Marque Concours Sanitaire, a show of classic automobiles presented at the Vanderbilt by the Jaguar Drivers Club of Long Island and the MG Car Club-Long Island Centre on Sept. 13 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Rain date will be Sept. 20.

In the Concours portion, Jaguars in the Championship, Driven and Special Division classes are be judged under Jaguar Club of North America Concours rules, which emphasize excellence of appearance. The Concours Sanitaire portion is open to vehicles of all years, makes, models and countries of origin.

Cars are judged solely on appearance, cleanliness and general condition, not originality.

More than 100 cars will be on display on the Vanderbilt Estate grounds overlooking scenic Northport Bay. Included will be vintage and new Jaguar and MG models and a wide range of international and domestic spots cars and sedans.

Proceeds from a raffle will benefit the CAPS (Child Abuse Prevention Services), one of Long Island’s leading organizations dedicated to preventing bullying and child abuse.

Visitors pay only the museum’s general admission fee (adults $7, students with ID and seniors 62 and older $6, children 12 and under $3) – there is no additional charge for car show. Museum members enter the show free. For more information, call 631-854-5579 or visit www. vanderbiltmuseum.org.

BNL’s Friley keeps watchful eye on energy future the power of 1

3 2

By Daniel Dunaief

Paul Friley traveled the world when he was young.

His family moved from Tokyo to Hong Kong to London to Bartlesville, Oklahoma, changing countries whenever his father, Charles, who worked for Phillips Petroleum and later for North American Coal, got a new assignment.

He absorbed quite a bit about his father’s life and work from listening to discussions about energy at home. “The conversations at Thanksgiving dinners were useful later in life,” Friley said.

Indeed, Friley now works for Brookhaven National Laboratory, where he is the leader of the Energy Policy and Technology Group. He regularly travels to Korea, Taiwan and India. He has also visited Hong Kong, Mexico, Columbia, the Philippines, Sweden, Italy, Japan, South Africa and France.

He shares the analytical work he and his team do with a range of energy projects, from coal sequestration to solar power to wind turbines. The job, he said, is rewarding not only in collecting information but in helping to share it with decision makers.

“We’re over there trying to improve their capacity to do all the analysis,” Friley said. He speaks with people from different ministries, including some in nonprofits and academia, to “figure out where we can make a difference.”

J. Patrick Looney, the chair of the Sustainable Energy Technologies Department at BNL, explained that Friley’s analysis “provides decision makers with insights on the options available” as they explore energy policy decisions.

Correction

3 Friley, who reports to Looney, is “known for his work on the impacts of federal funding on our energy future,” Looney continued.

Friley specifically works on a USAID project called Enhancing Capacity for Low Emission Development Strategies. In this program, USAID, the State Department and other agencies work with partner countries to develop knowledge, tools and analyses to estimate greenhouse gas emissions and identify and put into use ways to grow while minimizing emissions.

Friley spent the last year working with about 100 other energy professionals, including some from five other national laboratories, on the 2015 “Quadrennial Technology Review” (QTR). Due for release this month, the review will be over 500 pages, with a lengthy appendix. It will analyze the state of technology and will suggest areas where the Department of Energy should focus its research and development.

The review “will detail where we are and where we can go,” Friley explained. It will examine technologies ranging from power generation and smart grids to buildings, manufacturing, clean fuels production and transportation.

Looney described the QTR as playing “an important and growing role in setting priorities for federal investments to catalyze the development of advanced, scalable, clean energy technologies.”

Looney said the QTR can and does have wide-ranging implications in the world of energy policy and decisions.

“To be a part of something that touches so many and has such

importance to U.S. energy policy is really an honor,” Looney said.

Officials in Congress, the Department of Energy and Department of State can “use it as a guide book,” Friley said.

“It’s written as a document that any layperson could read and understand” and will be available online. Once the review is published, Friley, who currently works in Washington, D.C., will return as a full-time employee of BNL. He said his work involves looking at policy and technology impacts relative to a baseline projection. He recognizes the many unknowns in his work.

“Weather patterns, recessions, booming economic growth, wars, hurricanes and many other factors ... are not predictable over a 40- to 50year time frame,” he explained.

He runs a model in which he sees how much of a reduction in consumer bills people would see if the country can hit its goals at cost and performance, he said.

Friley is married to Kate Miller, an independent life coach. The couple have a sixyear-old daughter, Lilly, and a three-year-old daughter, Ivy. When he’s not analyzing energy alternatives, Friley works with a group called the Rogue Saints, which cooks meals once or twice a month for the homeless. It also is looking to provide meals for veterans every three months.

As for his work, he said he tries to “present an unbiased projection of the potential impacts of potential energy policy or technology improvements.”

Looney said Friley’s work “helps us all understand better our potential energy futures, and the inevitable myriad trade-offs we have to consider.”

TIAs: Preamble to stroke and other risks

immediate treatment can improve outcomes

By DaviD Dunaief, M.D.

A TIA (transient ischemic attack) is sometimes referred to as a “mini-stroke.”

This is a disservice since it makes a TIA sound like something that should be taken lightly. Ischemia is reduced or blocked blood flow to the tissue, due to a clot or narrowing of the arteries. Symptoms may last less than five minutes. However, a TIA is a warning shot across the bow that needs to be taken very seriously on its own merit. It may portend life-threatening or debilitating complications that can be prevented with a combination of medications and lifestyle modifications.

Is TIA common? It is diagnosed in anywhere from 200,000 to 500,000 Americans each year (1). The operative word is “diagnosed,” because it is considered to be significantly underdiagnosed. I have helped manage patients with symptoms as understated as the onset of double vision. Other symptoms may include facial or limb weakness on one side, slurred speech or problems comprehending others, dizziness or difficulty balancing or blindness in one or both eyes (2). TIA incidence increases with age (3).

What is a TIA? The definition has changed over time from one purely based on time (less than one hour), to differentiate it from a stroke, to one that is tissue-based. It is a brief episode of neurological dysfunction caused by focal brain ischemia or retinal ischemia (low blood flow in the back of the eye) without evidence of acute infarction (tissue death) (4). In other words, TIA has a rapid onset with potential to cause temporary muscle weakness, creating difficulty in activities such as walking, speaking and swallowing, as well as dizziness and double vision.

Why take a TIA seriously if its debilitating effects are temporary? Though they are temporary, TIAs have potential complications, from increased risk of stroke to heightened depressive risk to even death.

Despite the seriousness of TIAs, patients or caregivers often delay receiving treatment.

Stroke

After a TIA, stroke risk goes up dramatically. Even within the first 24 hours, stroke risk can be 5 percent (5).

According to one study, the incidence of stroke is 11 percent after seven days, which means that almost one in 10 people will experience a stroke after a TIA (6). Even worse, over the long term, the probability that a patient will experience a stroke reaches approximately 30 percent, one in three, after five years (7).

To go even further, there was a study that looked at the immediacy of treatment. The EXPRESS study, a population-based study that considered the effect of urgent treatment of TIA and minor stroke on recurrent stroke, evaluated 1,287 patients, comparing their initial treatment times after experiencing a TIA or minor stroke and their subsequent outcomes (8).

The Phase 1 cohort was assessed within a median of three days of symptoms and received a first prescription within 20 days. In Phase 2, median delays for assessment and first prescription were less than one day. All patients were followed for two years after treatment. Phase 2 patients had significantly improved outcomes over the Phase 1 patients. Ninety-day stroke risk was reduced from 10 percent to 2 percent, an 80 percent improvement.

The study’s authors advocate for the creation of TIA clinics that are equipped to diagnose and treat TIA patients to increase the likelihood of early evaluation and treatment and decrease the likelihood of a stroke within 90 days. The moral of the story is thus, treat a TIA as a stroke should be treated, the faster the diagnosis and treatment, the lower the likelihood of sequalae or complications.

a transient ischemic attack is a ‘mini-stroke’ that should be taken very seriously. stock photo

after a TIA, this is an insidious effect; the average time frame for patients was five years from TIA to heart attack.

Even patients taking statins to lower cholesterol were at higher risk of heart attack after a TIA.

Mortality

If stroke and heart attack were not enough, TIAs decrease overall survival by 4 percent after one year, by 13 percent after five years, and by 20 percent after nine years, especially in those over age 65, according to a study published in Stroke online on Nov. 10, 2011. The reason younger patients had a better survival rate, the authors surmise, is that their comorbidity (additional diseases) profile was more favorable.

Depression

Predicting the risk of stroke complications

In a cohort (particular group of patients) study that involved over 5,000 participants, TIA was associated with an almost 2.5 times increased risk of depressive disorder (11). Those who had multiple TIAs had a higher likelihood of depressive disorder. Unlike with stroke, in TIA it takes much longer to diagnose depression, about three years after the event.

Heart attack

Awareness and education are important. While 67 percent of stroke patients receive education about their condition, only 35 percent of TIA patients do (12). Many risk factors are potentially modifiable, with high blood pressure being at the top of the list, as well as high cholesterol, increasing age (over 55) and diabetes.

Secondary prevention (preventing

Both DWI (diffusion weighted imaging) and ABCD2 are potentially valuable predictors of stroke after TIA. The ABCD2 is a clinical tool used by physicians. ABCD2 stands for Age, Blood pressure, Clinical features and Diabetes, and it uses a scoring system from 0 to 7 to predict the risk of a stroke within the first two days of a TIA (9).

In one epidemiological study, the incidence of a heart attack after a TIA increased by 200 percent (10). These were patients without known heart disease.

Interestingly, the risk of heart attacks was much higher in those over 60 years of age and continued for years after the event. Just because you may not have had a heart attack within three months

What can you do?

recurrence) and prevention of complications are similar to those of stroke protocols. Medications may include aspirin, antiplatelets and anticoagulants.

Lifestyle modifications include a Mediterranean and DASH diet combination.

Patients should not start an aspirin regimen for chronic preventive use without the guidance of a physician.

In researching information for this article, I realized that there are not many separate studies for TIA; they are usually clumped with stroke studies.

This underscores the seriousness of this malady. If you or someone you know has TIA symptoms, the patient needs to see a neurologist and a primary care physician and/or a cardiologist immediately for assessment and treatment to reduce risk of stroke and other longterm effects.

art exhibit

Pat Ralph: Under the Radar to open at The Art League of Long Island of Ohio State University and traveling for three years to nine university galleries, plus the Philadelphia Arts Alliance. Most recently, her painting “Heading West” was featured in 75 @ 75: Treasures from the Collection at the Long Island Museum in Stony Brook to commemorate its 75th anniversary.

Of Ralph’s paintings, Beryl Smith, in her Women Artists Series catalog essay, wrote, “The timelessness and crystalline quality of her landscapes reflect her interest in light and atmosphere.” Malcolm Preston, in Newsday, remarked, “Her work is in the new realist mode — cool, objective, sharply realized. There is about them a directness and forthrightness uncluttered by sentiment.” Of her work Pat Ralph has said,

‘Icarus’ by Pat Ralph

“In my paintings I seek a stunning image, expressed with clarity and augmented with hints of mystery or wit. My landscapes reflect an interest in light and atmosphere. I am particularly intrigued by the singular light of early morning or late afternoon or evening — the hours in which natural effects are most fleeting, which makes the attempt to capture the moment fraught with paradox.”

The Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery is open free of charge Monday through Thursday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and weekends from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Art League is located at 107 East Deer Park Road in Dix Hills. For more information call 631-4625400 or visit www.artleagueli.org.

Featuring rarely seen works, including large figure paintings, monotypes and pastels, Pat Ralph: Under the Radar opens with a reception in the Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery of the Art League of Long Island on Sunday, Sept. 27, from 1 to 4 p.m., and continues through Nov. 1. A gallery tour, led by the artist, will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 22.

Trained at the Art Students League in New York, Pat Ralph has lived on Long Island most of her life.

She is a realist painter with a diverse body of work that includes landscapes, portraits, self-portraits and still life paintings. While Long Islanders know her mostly by her landscape paintings, this exhibit reveals a history of figurative work shown mainly in New York City and university galleries around the country.

Ralph has had solo exhibits at the Fine Arts Gallery at Southampton College, the Fine Arts Gallery of Suffolk Community College in Selden, Gallery East in East Hampton, Gallery North in Setauket, the Heckscher Museum at the Bryant Library in Roslyn and Noho Gallery in New York City. She also was given a solo exhibit as part of the Mary H. Dana Women Artists Series, at Douglass College, New Brunswick, N.J., and another at Douglass, as it celebrated its 75th anniversary.

Ralph’s works have been included in group exhibitions at the Heckscher Museum in Huntington, Silvermine Guild in New Canaan, the Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown, Ohio, the Fine Arts Gallery at Southampton College, the Mason Gross Center for the Arts at Rutgers University, the Parrish Art Museum, the University of Delaware, San Jose State University in California and Pace University Gallery, Marymount Manhattan College and the National Academy of Design, all in New York City.

In 1985 Ralph had two paintings, both of which will appear in Under the Radar, in an exhibition titled RAPE, originating at the Hoyt Sherman Gallery

Coleus: Nip that flower in the bud

By EllEn BarcEl

There are a number of plants, grown as either annuals or herbaceous perennials, that are admired and grown for their leaves, not their flowers. Hostas are one of these as are aromatic mints, but so are coleus.

Coleus really brighten up a shady place and bring lots of color into the garden all summer long. You’ll find a number of scientific names for the plant, since botanists today frequently reclassify a plant after studying its genetic makeup.

Coleus, however, is in the Lamiaceae family — the mint family. While many plants in that family are aromatic, mints, thyme, sage, etc., coleus isn’t. But coleus does have the characteristic square stems of mints.

There are a number of ways you can grow your coleus: in a bed of plants outside, very nice scattered among hostas or other leafy plants; in a container outside or even as a houseplant.

Coleus are native to Southeast Asia and Malaysia. They are flowering plants. However, once the plant flowers and goes to seed, it has reached its life span and dies.

So this is crucial: nip or pinch off the flowers in the bud if you want to keep your coleus growing and producing gorgeous, brightly pattered leaves.

Coleus can be propagated by seed — start indoors 8 to 10 weeks before the frost- free date — or by stem cuttings, rooted in water. If you choose to let the professionals start your coleus, like toma-

To keep them growing, don’t let them go to seed.

to plants, they can’t be put outdoors until it is warm enough, usually mid-May or, as my father always said, Memorial Day, just in case there’s an unusual dip in temperature. Because they are not cold-tolerant, they are considered annuals if grown outdoors on Long Island, but are evergreen perennials in warmer areas lasting for a number of years.

It shouldn’t surprise you, that being native to a warm climate, they are somewhat heat-tolerant, but that doesn’t mean drought-tolerant. Don’t let the soil get soggy, but do keep it evenly moist. If the soil

dries out, the leaves will quickly wilt, but if you notice and water them fast enough, they may perk up.

Coleus leaves come in a wide variety of colors including green, yellow, white, burgundy, red, pink and black — actually a very dark burgundy. The green, of course, comes from chlorophyll, but the reds come

from the chemical anthocyanin, an adaptation to attract pollinators to the plant.

Coleus can get quite large, but there are dwarf varieties. Check out the ones you’re interested in before purchasing them. They do best in a soil pH of 6.0 to 7.0, so you may need to add lime to your garden soil. Potting soil is closer to neutral, already.

As houseplants, keep in a warm place — 70 to 85 degrees is ideal, but not less than 50 degrees — with bright light.

As far as fertilizer goes, use compost, or if using chemical fertilizers, use once a month or as per package directions. If you’re growing your coleus in containers, you’ve probably used potting soil of one variety or another. Check it to see if it already contains fertilizer. If so, only start fertilizing when what’s in the soil is used up, which will be noted on the potting soil package.

As the cold weather approaches, you can bring containers inside to grow as houseplants or you can take cuttings from your favorite patterned/colored plants and root them in water over the winter.

TVHS celebrates 50 golden years with Spy Gala

By ElizaBEth Kahn Kaplan

It’s been quite a journey since sea captain Edward Reginald Rhodes and others launched the Three Village Historical Society in the mid-1960s — a time when this community was undergoing rapid change and expansion. “It was important to the founders that the area’s rich history be recognized, honored and preserved,” said Brookhaven Town Historian Barbara Russell, and for 50 years the Society, with its hundreds of volunteers, has done just that.

“The Society has, from its beginning, regarded the Three Village area as its museum; the homes, people and natural environment as its collection; and the home owners as its curators. One of the primary goals of the Society has been to actively work together with other community organizations to preserve and maintain the historic fabric of our Three Village community,” added Beverly C. Tyler, historian for the TVHS. Annual events that pay tribute to our rich history include the Long Island Apple Festival each September at the Sherwood-Jayne Farm in Setauket, in cooperation with Homestead Arts and the Society for the Preservation of Long Island Antiquities; the Spirits Tour during the third weekend in October, and the Candlelight House Tour during the first weekend of December.

The Society’s educational programs include frequent walking tours conducted by trained volunteers, in-school educational programs and Sunday afternoon docent-led tours at the Society’s headquarters — the c. 1800 BaylesSwezey House at 93 North Country Road,

Setauket — that was funded in large part by a state grant obtained by Assemblyman Steve Englebright in 1998.

Two current exhibits are: Spies! How A Group of Long Island Patriots Helped George Washington Win the Revolution, and Chicken Hill: A Community Lost to Time, for which the Society received an award of merit from the American Association for State and Local History.

A primary objective since the Society’s founding was the collection and preservation of documents and artifacts that would otherwise be lost. Housed in the Society’s Rhodes Collection in a separate area at the Emma S. Clark Memorial Library, they are shared with researchers and overseen by the Society’s professional archivist.

Fifty years of distinguished contributions to this community is cause for celebration and what better way than at the Three Village Historical Society’s 50th Anniversary Spy Gala at St. George’s Golf and Country Club, 134 Lower Sheep Pasture Road, in E. Setauket this Saturday evening, Sept. 12 from 7 to 11 p.m. You are invited to the party; come join the fun. Delicious tapas, an open bar, music and a champagne toast await. Come dressed as your favorite spy if you wish.

Celebrate the contributions of 17 past presidents and Boards of Trustees — dedicated men and women determined to preserve Three Village history while expanding the Society’s offerings, from its origins in 1964 to the present day. It’s time to recognize the Society’s achievements and contributions to our community.

Tickets are $125 per person and may be purchased in advance by calling 631-751-3730, online at www.tvhs.org or at the door.

The Facts: My mother’s brother, Joe, never married and did not have any children. He died with a will in which he left everything to my mother and nothing to his other sister, Sue. In fact, Joe did not even mention Sue in his will.

Unfortunately, my mother died before Joe. I am my mother’s only heir. Sue had a son named Keith.

For example, if Joe made a $50,000 bequest in his will to a friend and the friend died before Joe, the $50,000 bequest would lapse. The funds would not go to the friend’s children but would go to other beneficiaries under the will. In contrast, if the testator makes a bequest to a sibling and the sibling dies before the testator, the bequest does not lapse.

The Question: Is Instead, the beKeith entitled to a quest vests in the isshare of Joe’s estate or sue of the beneficiary. am I in line to inherit In other words, the the entire estate? assets allocated to the predeceased sibThe Answer: Forling will pass to that tunately for you, there sibling’s children or is an “anti-lapse” statgrandchildren. ute in New York that Since Joe and your is applicable to your mother were siblings, situation.

THE QUOTE

SPORTSWEEK STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY

Tomorrow is Friday — wear red on campus!

Wiggins’ free kick powers Seawolves past Marist, 1-0 SBU will look for its third consecutive victory Friday

‘Today we had to use a re-start to win the game and we were able to do that, so it’s certainly a positive moving forward.’

— SUE RYAN

Redshirt junior defender Priscilla Wiggins’ second half, free kick goal sent Seawolves fans home happy on Labor Day as the Stony Brook women’s soccer team (2-4-0) defeated Marist (1-4-0) 1-0.

“I think our win the other night gave us a little extra momentum heading into today,” Stony Brook head coach Sue Ryan said. “I was pleased with our effort.”

The Seawolves were on the attack from the match’s opening seconds.

They nearly scored straight from the opening kickoff when they worked the ball to freshman defender and midfielder Allyson Baner, who delivered a great cross, but sophomore forward and midfielder Manuela Corcho flicked a header wide.

Corcho had another dangerous firsthalf opportunity when she put a free kick on frame, but it was deflected over the crossbar.

Junior forward and midfielder Lindsay Hutchinson had a great chance to score early in the second half thanks to a pass from senior midfielder Tessa Devereaux.

Hutchinson managed to dribble around the goalkeeper, but her touch took her wide and her shot from a tight angle hit the outside of the side netting.

Wiggins’ goal started with a foul in the midfield on senior forward and midfielder Emily Murrer. The junior

then sent a hard shot high and over the goalie’s head.

It was her first goal since her freshman

season in 2012, when she scored in backto-back games against Wagner College and St. John’s University.

Stony Brook won back-to-back games once last season, with consecutive wins over Binghamton University and University of Vermont in October.

Stony Brook held a 16-10 edge in shots and a 6-3 advantage in shots on goal. Devereaux led the Seawolves with four shots.

For the second game in a row, junior Emily Doherty and freshman Cara Gallagher split time in goal. Doherty played the first half, finishing with a save, while Gallagher made two second-half saves to earn the win.

It was the Seawolves first clean sheet of the season.

“At times you have to find ways to win a game,”Ryan said. “Today we had to use a re-start to win the game and we were able to do that, so it’s certainly a positive moving forward.”

The Seawolves go for three in a row on Friday, when they travel to local rival Hofstra University for a 7 p.m. match.

Melian, Kun pace Seawolves at season opener Stony Brook men’s team finishes first; women second

Photos from SBU

Above, Christina Melian maintains her composure during a race. Right, Mitchell Kun sprints toward the finish line.

The Stony Brook men’s and women’s cross country teams opened the 2015 season at the Stony Brook Season Opener, with the Seawolves men’s team finishing first in the 6K and the women’s squad placing second among the six competing teams in the 4K. “Today was about evaluating where we are after the summer. Overall, I am satisfied with what I saw out there,” Stony Brook head coach Andy Ronan said.

“Christina [Melian] showed she is in very good shape; Liz Caldwell and Megan Cooney also had good runs. On the men’s side, I thought we went to sleep in the middle of the race and then some of them got it going again over the last 1,000 meters. We need to improve on that over the next eight weeks.”

The Stony Brook men’s team was first, with 50 points, edging the University of Massachusetts Lowell (54). Sacred Heart University (65) placed third, Quinnipiac University (85) was fourth, the University of Hartford (118) took fifth and Central Connecticut State University (147) was sixth.

The Seawolves women finished second, with 52 points, as Sacred Heart took the women’s team victory with 45. UMass Lowell (53) was third, Quinnipiac (92) placed fourth, Hartford was fifth (112) and Central Connecticut (169) rounded out the scoring.

The top two finishers on the women’s side were from Stony Brook. Junior Christina Melian and junior Elizabeth Caldwell recorded times of 14 minutes, 18.40 seconds and 14:50.63, respectively.

This is the second consecutive year Melian has finished first in the women’s race.

Her 2015 time eclipsed last year’s by more than 13 seconds.

Senior Mitchell Kun was the first Stony Brook men’s runner across the finish line, placing second in 18:44.87.

The Seawolves had three of the top 10 finishers on the men’s side. Sophomore Joseph Acito was ninth in 19:08.12, while sophomore Daniel Connelly was 10th in 19:10.69.

Freshman Kevin Vinolas finished 17th (19:20.91), senior Ryan Tancin was 18th (19:21.30) and freshman Ben McDermott came in 19th (19:23.73).

On the women’s side, junior Christine Eisenberg placed seventh (15:19.66), while junior Megan Cooney was also in under 16 minutes with a 17th-place finish (15:40.92).

Saturday was the first of three home meets for the Seawolves in 2015. Stony Brook will be home Saturday for the Wolfie Invitational and Oct. 31 for the America East Championships. The Wolfie Invitational will begin at 10:30 a.m.

“The season is underway,” Ronan said.

“Now we need to work hard each day and stay focused on competing hard every time we line up,.”

The Stony Brook volleyball team split a pair of matches on the second day of the Fairfield Invitational Saturday in Alumni Hall.

The Seawolves fell in five sets to Marshall University (14-25, 25-18, 19-25, 25-20, 13-15) before defeating the College of the Holy Cross in four sets (25-19, 23-25, 25-19, 30-28). Stony Brook is 2-5 on the year, following Saturday’s matches.

The Seawolves fended off set point twice, and the Crusaders fought off match point three times in the 30-28 fourth set eventually won by Stony Brook.

Freshman middle hitter and outside hitter McKyla Brooks hit .522 with 15 kills in the win over Holy Cross. Brooks had 14 kills on a .321 hitting percentage against Marshall.

Redshirt senior Lo Hathaway broke the all-time program record for digs in the fourth set against Holy Cross, the 1,531st of her Seawolves career, 27th of the day and 15th of the match.

The libero and defensive specialist had 21 digs against Holy Cross and 12 in the Marshall match. Hathaway set the program’s Division I digs record on Oct. 18, 2014, against the University of New Hampshire.

The all-time record was held by Jessica Serrano ’99.

Redshirt senior Kathy Fletcher had 20 kills and 13 digs in the win over Holy Cross.

The outside hitter and right middle blocker tallied 14 kills and 13 digs against Marshall.

Senior middle blocker Stephanie McFadden recorded 16 kills against Holy Cross and 11 in the match against Marshall.

Freshman setter Morgan Kath had 45 assists and 10 digs in the Marshall match and added 34 assists against Holy Cross.

kids times ‘Skyscraper’

Shining rays reflecting off the shimmering treasure, a sight for sore eyes,

Sophie Klein 10 years old, Stony Brook

People, pets, taxi-cabs, buses, everyone passes by one time or another,

Towering above a great crowd, strong, yet silent, a symbol of hope for the community, It never moves, standing its ground, giving all citizens something to be proud of, to believe in, A place of work, play, a place of family and friends, a place of life,

No human being could ever imagine their life without their unique priorities, One day, one very dark day, the building fell, fell into a dark pit of despair and grief, Although my artifact, my relic, is simply a small segment of a 2001 skyscraper, mine is special,

So loved and appreciated, it’s taken for granted each day, Residents know their treasure like the back of their hands, the way they know each other,

A way to always remember the strength of America and its people coming together as one,

Every window that’s peered into from the street is hiding a gem, a jewel, an interest

My special skyscraper.

Port Jefferson to host 2nd annual Dragon Boat Race Festival Dragons will roar as the Greater Port Jefferson Chamber of Commerce will once again host the Port Jefferson Dragon Boat Festival on Saturday, Sept.

19, at the Mayor Jeanne Garant Harborfront Park, 101 E. Broadway, from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

“This year’s ‘Dragons’ is bigger and better than last year! With the expansion of teams, entertainment and food, this festival has something for everyone,” said Barbara Ransome, director of operations at the Port Jefferson Chamber of Commerce.

“One goal this year was to create a more interactive program for the day for not just the teams but for spectators as well, including bringing in the racing course closer to land for better viewing.

Collaborating with more community partners makes this event inclusive to our residents and visitors,” she added.

Ransome came up with the idea of creating this festival after attending a similar event in Cape May, N.J., a few years ago.

An opening ceremony will include an Asian color guard along with the blessing of the fleet by Buddhist Monk Bhante Nanda of the Long Island Buddhist Meditation Center, incorporating the traditional eye dotting ceremony to kick off the races.

Twenty-four teams will compete in a 250-meter course in four dragon boats provided by the High Five Dragon Boat Company and will include representatives from local hospitals, civic groups, businesses and cultural organizations.

Each team will be made up of 20 “pad-

dlers,” one steersman and one drummer.

Heats will run all day with a culmination of an awards ceremony at the end of the day.

In addition to the races, there will be a day-long festival featuring numerous performances, including a lion dance,

Taiko and Korean drum performances and Asian singing and instrumentals along with educational and cultural displays and vendors. Various Asian delicacies, including pot stickers, lo mein, bánh mì Vietnamese pork sandwiches, sushi, stir-fried noodles, bubble tea and spring rolls, will be available.

Along with traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy, there will be dragon sculptures, an opportunity to paint “dragon” eggs and children’s crafts. New this year is a Fortune Cookie raffle sponsored by the Fortunato Breast Health Center, Asian souvenirs, a photo booth, photo opportunities with a friendly dragon and team contests for the best team T-shirt and best costumed drummer.

Sponsors include Confucius Institute of Stony Brook, LONGISLAND. com, New York Community Bank-Roslyn Savings Division, Fortunato Breast Health Center, SCNB Bank, Tritec, News 12, Times Beacon Record Newspapers and Unity SEO Solutions.

The event will be held rain or shine and admission is free. Bring a blanket or lawn chair and come enjoy the festivities. For more information, call 631-473-1414 or visit www.portjeffdragonracefest.com.
