Voters say yes to budgets, third terms for trustees By Elana Glowatz Port Jefferson and Comsewogue residents overwhelmingly approved their school districts’ budgets on Tuesday night, and returned four trustees to their boards of education. Neither district had much in contention during the public vote, as their budgets stayed within the limits of how much they could increase their tax levies — as set by the state — and incumbents ran for re-election to the boards without any opposition.

Comsewogue

In Comsewogue, voters approved an $87.2 million budget, 828 to 194. The new spending plan maintains all academic programs in the next school year and increases taxes about $3 for every $100 of a home’s assessed value. That will represent a tax

Budget: 828 votes in favor DeStefano: 895 votes Alabau-Blatter: 785 votes

rate increase of about 1.2 percent. The district is able to maintain programs without busting through the levy cap thanks in large part to additional state aid. In this year’s state budget, lawmakers axed the Gap Elimination Adjustment, a deduction from school district aid that closed a state budget deficit but withheld billions from schools across New York over the last six years. With it gone, Comsewogue got a $1.3 million boost, for a total of about $30 million in state aid. Trustees Rob DeStefano and Francisca Alabau-Blatter, both of whom were unopposed for third terms on the board of education, were re-elected on Tuesday night with 895 votes and 785 votes, respectively. DeStefano grew up in Comsewogue and graduated from the high school in 1996. He works in marketing for a software company and has a 7-year-old at Norwood Elementary School and a 3-year-old who will soon be attending Comsewogue schools. He will be leading the school board’s newly formed public relations committee next year. Alabau-Blatter, who is from Spain and moved to Long Island at age 13, has three kids in Comsewogue and teaches Spanish in Central Islip.

The $41.4 million budget for next year was approved with 353 votes in favor and 55 votes against. While maintaining all academic programs, it will increase taxes

From left, Kathleen Brennan, Ellen Boehm, Rob DeStefano and Francisca alabauBlatter were re-elected on tuesday night. $0.81 for every $100 of assessed value on a home, which translates to about 0.56 percent. Despite the slight tax increase, the total budget is actually going down nearly $1 million in 2016-17, due to a drop in debt repayments and less money being spent on capital projects, such as the new high school elevator, which has yet to be constructed but was funded in the current year’s budget. The expense decreases are helping to offset increases in other budget lines, like health insurance payments, utilities and transportation costs. Like Comsewogue, Port Jefferson is seeing an increase in state aid next year — a boost of about 4.68 percent. The district is using that money, restored from the Gap Elimination Adjustment, toward online pro-

fessional development and special education integration in the elementary school. Board President Kathleen Brennan and Trustee Ellen Boehm were returned to the board, facing no challengers, with 348 votes and 347 votes, respectively. Brennan, a former educator herself, has lived in the district since 1978 and listed picking a new superintendent to replace outgoing Superintendent Ken Bossert at the top of her priorities list. She serves on the board’s audit and finance committees. Boehm, who was previously a teaching assistant in Port Jefferson and graduated from the district, has already served one partial term, after being appointed to fill a vacancy on the board, and one full term. She is a member of the board’s facilities and audit committees.

Bye bye, Heritage Inn By Elana Glowatz Smashes and gashes, scraps to dust. Officials started to take down the decrepit Heritage Inn motel in downtown Port Jefferson on Tuesday morning, sending sledgehammers into a glass window and dropping an excavator’s arm onto the roof of one structure on the West Broadway site. It was the first step toward new construction at the spot, where TRITEC Real Estate Company is putting up a 112-unit apartment building with parking underneath the structure, near the intersection with Barnum Avenue. Previously called the Residences at Port Jefferson, TRITEC’s Bob Coughlan said on Tuesday that the apartments will be called “The Shipyard.” He estimated the project would be completed in 20 months. “We’re thrilled to add to the vibrancy of the community,” said Coughlan, a TRITEC principal who lives in Port Jefferson. He and Mayor Margot Garant did the honors in the ceremonial demolition, with both taking sledgehammers to a glass window in the attendant’s booth toward the front of the property before Garant got behind the controls of an excavator and sent its arm down hard into the roof of that booth, crushing everything underneath it to cheers from onlookers. “We had the honor of taking the first bite out of the building and it was very cathartic,” she said afterward, noting that she was still shaking from the experience. More demolition was scheduled to occur on the property later in the week, with a groundbreaking on the three-story luxury

apartment building in June. According to the plans approved by the Port Jefferson Planning Board, there will be 42 one-bedroom and 70 two-bedroom apartments, and the building will take up less than half of the 3.74-acre property to leave room for landscaping and buffers. The project did not require any variances or special exceptions from the village.

our phone calls,” Kellogg wrote in an email this week. Although an official from the Commack school district did not return a request for comment, Port Jefferson Village Clerk Bob Juliano challenged the accusation against his department. In an interview on Tuesday, Juliano said Reclaim New York sent his office an email on March 8, asking for 2014 information on vendors, including what the village made purchase orders for and who it made checks out to. He said he responded the same day and the village treasurer’s office is still working on compiling the information, estimating it would be done by the end of May. “We weren’t ignoring them,” Juliano said, asserting that the two groups had not communicated since March 7 because Reclaim New York hadn’t followed up with his office. The village clerk noted that because Port Jefferson is currently closing out its fiscal year, that process is delaying things. Reclaim New York started the New York Transparency Project as a response to recent public corruption cases and the state’s “affordability crisis,” according to a press release. The project’s goal is to make records requests to thousands of local governments statewide and teach taxpayers about the FOIL process. “That’s when we will see more conflicts of interest, more political favors, more waste,

Although a couple of North Shore entities were included in that list, many did comply, including Suffolk County; Brookhaven, Smithtown and Huntington towns; Belle Terre and Lake Grove villages; and the Port Jefferson, Kings Park, Huntington, Smithtown, Mount Sinai, Miller Place and Rocky Point school districts, among others. “There are people who really need to know that Commack and Port Jefferson have work to do, and they aren’t being open with their tax dollars,” Kellogg said in an email.

ment transparency and finances, employment and the economy, sent Freedom of Information requests to school districts and municipalities throughout Suffolk County, as well as Nassau County and locations in the lower Hudson Valley, as part of its transparency project. In its report, Reclaim New York said that while many entities along Suffolk’s North Shore complied with state guidelines on processing such public records requests, both Port Jefferson Village and the Commack school district did not. New York State’s Freedom of Information Law requires governments and school districts to respond to records requests within five business days, whether with the information requested, a denial or an acknowledgement of the request that includes an estimated date when one of the former two will occur. Denials can be appealed, and agencies are not allowed to deny a request “on the basis that the request is voluminous or that locating or reviewing the requested records or providing the requested copies is burdensome because the agency lacks sufficient staffing.” Reclaim New York spokesperson Doug Kellogg claimed that Commack denied part of the FOIL request, “making big chunks essentially useless,” and that Port Jefferson Village at first “said they could not send an Excel document, which would show they are underprepared.” “Port Jeff never worked with us from there, they just ignored the appeals and

suffolk County executive steve bellone calls on the district attorney to step down.

County executive joins chorus calling for DA Spota to resign by Alex petroski A high stakes political finger pointing battle is ramping up in Suffolk County. Top Suffolk County officials have been left to answer for the promotion of former Chief of Police James Burke, who in February pleaded guilty to charges of a civil rights violation and conspiracy to obstruct justice, which occurred following the arrest of Smithtown man Christopher Loeb in 2012. Last Tuesday, Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) held a press conference at the Suffolk County Legislature in Riverhead where he and fellow legislators, including Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) and Kevin McCaffrey (R-Lindenhurst), called for both County Executive Steve Bellone (D) and District Attorney Tom Spota (D) to resign from their positions. Two days later, Bellone joined the list of people including the legislators and Suffolk County Sheriff Vincent DeMarco calling for Spota to resign. “For refusing to cooperate and work with federal law enforcement to prosecute crime in this county, for refusing and blocking federal law enforcement who were working on the Gilgo Beach serial murder case, for allowing violent criminals to go free to protect political friends, for lying about Jim Burke and conspiring to conceal his past …” Bellone said last Thursday on the steps of Spota’s Hauppauge office. “Tom Spota, you must resign from this office so that we can begin the process of reforming this place governmentally and politically in a way that we can ensure this doesn’t happen again. If you fail to do so, I will call on the governor to exercise his authority under the constitution to remove you from this office.” Trotta arrived while Bellone addressed the media, and interjected that reporters were speaking with a “co-conspirator.” Trotta reiterated his stance that Bellone is as much a part of the political corruption problem in the county as Spota for his role in promoting Burke, and standing by him despite evidence of Burke’s troubled past. “I have never said that I have never

made mistakes in my public career,” Bellone said. “I’ve made many mistakes. But they have never, ever been with ill intent and I’ve learned from my mistakes and I don’t repeat them. When I promoted Jim Burke, I consulted District Attorney Tom Spota. When I fired Jim Burke, I did not consult Tom Spota.” Bellone said he promoted Burke not because of recommendations from Spota or others, but because he was a “charismatic” and “impressive” person who made a memorable presentation. Bellone handed a letter calling for Spota’s resignation to one of his employees inside the office, and Spota met the media later that day to respond. “It’s a very, very difficult day for me,” Spota said in a video of that press conference. “He has delivered to me a letter asking for my resignation. I have absolutely no reason why I should resign, or ... removed from office.” Spota fired back at Bellone, suggesting his motivation was a “personal vendetta” against Spota for investigating and prosecuting people Bellone was close to. Bellone responded to Trotta, Cilmi and McCaffrey’s calls for his resignation through an email from a spokeswoman. “Rob Trotta and Tom Cilmi are partisan politicians who just don’t get it,” a statement said. “This is not a partisan issue; this is about sweeping out a culture of abuse and corruption in the district attorney’s office. I regret that I trusted the word of the district attorney regarding Jim Burke, and I have learned from that error in judgment.” Trotta made it clear following Bellone’s comments that the county executive should not be let off the hook. “It was an Academy Award-winning performance,” Trotta said of Bellone’s press conference. “Forty-eight hours ago we were partisan, and we were political hacks. Now all of the sudden he responds to a Newsday article, he sees what’s going on and he tries to jump in front of it. It’s ridiculously absurd … He’s a total, unadulterated liar.”

Stony Brook University offers all-gender restrooms to students By PHiL CorSo Stony Brook University is steps ahead of the nation on its public restroom policies. Last week, President Barack Obama (D) required all public schools to provide restroom facilities for all students, including those who identify as transgender. But at Stony Brook, plans are already in place to accommodate students of any identification, making it the first school in the SUNY system to offer up all-gender restrooms and changing rooms. Timothy Ecklund, dean of students at SBU, said the university introduced a draft diversity plan in December in an attempt to attack persistent issues of inequality affecting society as a whole. In an interview, he said the university’s plan to address gender and inequality, specifically pertaining to the transgender community, included requiring all new and renovated buildings on campus to have all-gender restrooms included in construction plans and installing at least one all-gender restroom in each existing campus building. “As long as we have transgender people

at our university, our perspective is they’re a member of our community and we need to support them,” he said. Ecklund said Stony Brook University has a total of 24 all-gender restrooms, including three recently reassigned restrooms in its Student Activities Center building, which have multi-stall facilities. “When we changed our restrooms to all-gender in the Student Activities Center, the feedback from our students was overwhelmingly supportive and positive,” he said. “I spend a lot of time on campus and I see students in and out of the restrooms there without any hesitation. It’s not an issue, for our students, at least.” As for the students’ perspective, sophomore Sydney Gaglio, president of the campus’ Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Alliance, said the all-gender restroom discussion was long overdue, as it has always been a primary concern of her group. “We are of course super excited about the all-gender restrooms on campus and it is definitely a point of pride on our campus,” she said in an interview. “As students, there has been some concern mentioned in that

File photo

Stony Brook University is making it a priority to place all-gender restrooms in new building projects across campus. when it comes to social media sites like Yik Yak, where things are anonymous, commentary on the all-gender restroom policy on campus can get extremely transphobic, hurtful and invalidating. So there is concern for student health because of social stigma but, all in all, the conversation from members of LGBTA centers on excitement and validation.” The issue has become a hot topic across the North Shore and greater United States. Last month, Port Jefferson school board members approved a policy for how district officials should interact with and accommodate transgender students, including on the way those students are referenced in school records and what bathroom and locker room facilities they can use. Other school districts on the North Shore have also tried to make rules for transgender students in recent years, but faced backlash from the community. “Gender-specific restrooms still exist

and if you feel more comfortable in those spaces, then that is OK,” Gaglio said. “But things like going to the restroom are personal things; let people do their business in peace and you do yours in peace and everyone will be happy. Allow people to occupy the space in which they feel comfortable in.” But the university’s support for all of its students does not stop at the label on a bathroom door, the dean said. Ecklund said the university is home to a number of transgender students, and the school is taking strides to accommodate them and be sensitive to their preferences. “We are working now as a university at providing the opportunity for our transgender students to change their names,” he said. “We’re trying to make sure the places at which their names are present — especially on a daily basis — they’re able to use the name they prefer or the name that they have taken.”

Out of sight: Eye-tracking device changes vet’s life By Phil Corso Two eyes and an iPad are all Vietnam veteran John Cincar needs to completely transform his day-to-day life. Cincar, a resident at Stony Brook’s Long Island State Veterans Home, lost his ability to move his arms and hands, but only needs his eyes to operate a $12,000 iPad the home helped him secure this week as part of its mission to enhance residents’ independence. With help from the device and the home, Cincar said he could open the door to a world he had not been able to access on his own for years. By looking at control keys or cells displayed on the iPad screen, he can generate speech, activate functions such as turning on a light or television, and even surf the internet.

“It’s very easy for me to use,” he said. “It does everything. I can get in touch with the world again.” The eye-tracking device, which the veterans home referred to as an “eye gazer,” was a by-product of a donation from Bowlers to Veterans Link Chairman John LaSpina, a Long Island native and owner of various bowling alleys across the Island. The BVL is a not-for-profit organization that works to support American veterans, raises about $1 million per year through bowlers and bowling centers nationwide, and has a working relationship with the Long Island State Veterans Home, LaSpina said. “An opportunity like this just seemed so incredibly great that we couldn’t say no to it,” he said. “We’re talking about a facility totally dedicated to veterans. The place is immaculately clean. They do wonderful things.” The BVL donation to the Long Island State Veterans Home was made possible from the proceeds of the “PBA50 Johnny Petraglia BVL Open,” which was held at the Farmingdale Lanes this month. With the Vietnam era now more than four decades old, the Long Island State Veterans Home has been seeing more veterans who served in that war coming through its doors. And with each war comes a different kind of ailment that staff must combat. “Many of these guys, their brains are fully intact, but their bodies are shot.

left and above, John Cincar accepts and uses an eye-tracking iPad device. They’re trapped,” said Jonathan Spier, deputy executive director for the Long Island State Veterans Home. Just five years ago, Spier said, the home had only two Vietnam veterans living there. That number skyrocketed to more than 50 by 2016, he said, with former combat men suffering from specific injuries like exposure to Agent Orange and other muscle-related difficulties. Fred Sganga, executive director of the veterans home, said the addition of the eyetracking device only furthered his group’s

mission to enhance the quality of life of more than 6,000 Long Island veterans. “The goal is to maximize every veteran’s independence,” he said. “We want to be strategically ready for the next generation of veterans coming here, and this technology is transformational for someone who is a paraplegic.” When asked how he planned on harnessing the power of the iPad to his benefit, Cincar said he hopes to study new languages, like Romanian — the language of the land he was born in.

Law lowers cases of whooping cough in infants

By Phil Corso

A young state law is already breathing new life into the number of newborns burdened with whooping cough. It has been three years since state Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) saw his Neonatal Infant Pertussis Act signed into law, and last week, members of the Pediatric Academic Societies said it’s already paying off, by reducing infections 50 percent. Both Englebright and Dr. Shetal Shah, who worked alongside the lawmaker in 2012 as a member of the neonatal intensive care unit at Stony Brook University, heralded the legislation as an effective measure to keep newborns healthy across New York State. Englebright wrote the NPPA with Shah’s help, requiring Tdap, a vaccine against whooping cough, be offered to parents and caregivers in contact with a newborn during birth hospitalization as a way to promote “cocoon” immunity for the infant, according to Shah. Five months later the legislation was signed into law by New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), codifying Shah’s common sense idea into law. “That year, the New York Department of Health had already reported a threefold increase in whooping cough since the previous year,” Englebright said. “It is gratifying to learn that this law is working and that children are being protected from whooping cough.” Whooping cough, also known as pertussis, starts with “cold-like” symptoms such as fever, sneezing or a runny nose. It may then morph into a mild cough, which becomes

Dr. shetal shah gives Assemblyman steve Englebright a shot at the press conference announcing that the Neonatal infant Pertussis Act was signed into law in 2012. more severe in the first or second week. The NPPA fight started in 2012 when Shah reached out to Englebright’s office with an idea that he said could prevent whooping cough in newborns. In a statement, Shah said newborns are typically the most at risk of serious illness or death if infected. But with help from Englebright’s legislation, vaccinations have been effective

in combatting the infection for newborns. Using the New York Communicable Disease Electronic Surveillance System, Heather L. Brumberg from Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital and her colleagues obtained data from 2010 to 2015 on pertussis cases and hospitalizations for 57 New York counties outside of the city. In addition, they used state population rates in 2011 and 2013 to

determine the incidence per 100,000. During the study period, 6,086 cases of pertussis were detected, 68.8 percent of which occurred before the law passed and 31.2 percent of which occurred after. Overall, the pertussis incidence rate decreased from 37.3 per 100,000 children before the law to 16.9 per 100,000 after. For children aged younger than 1 year old, pertussis incidence decreased from 304 per 100,000 children to 165 per 100,000 and pertussis hospitalization decreased from 104 per 100,000 children to 63 per 100,000 children. The NPPA was associated with these reductions, especially for those at high-risk, the researchers wrote. “The data shows that passage of the Neonatal Infant Pertussis Act [NPPA] was associated with a reduced incidence of disease in children in each age group studied,” said Shah, who now works at Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital of the Westchester Medical Center Health Network. “This is associative, as we were unable to track actual parental and caregiver Tdap immunization rates.” Whooping cough vaccine is a five-shot series that is recommended for children at 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 15 to 18 months, and again at 4 to 6 years of age. The pertussis vaccine is short-lived and can wear off within a decade, so some people who were immunized as children are no longer protected in adolescence or adulthood unless they get another booster shot. “This should provide some degree of scientific impetus to other states and counties to consider this measure as part of a comprehensive strategy to reduce whooping cough,” Shah said.

SPORTS Gearing up for playoffs

Port Jefferson students, above and below, take part in the 16th annual Scraggy Walk/Run.

Racing through Scraggy Hill Park Wearing class T-shirts and sporting sneakers, more than 600 Edna Louise Spear Elementary School students completed a 1.1mile course through Scraggy Hill Park during the annual Scraggy Hill Run/Walk. The challenging course took participants across Scraggy Hill Road, down rolling hills, through a wooded trail and across the finish line, where they were met with cheers from spectators, teachers and administrators. The annual race aims to promote physical fitness and culminates a several-week training period where students walked, ran and swam in their physical education classes to get ready for the big run.

The Comsewogue girls’ lacrosse team is taking it to the next level. The Warriors finished the regular season at 7-7 in Division II, and enter playoffs as the No. 7 seed. The team will be up against No. 2 Rocky Point, when they hit the road today for a 4 p.m. matchup. Comsewogue has its fair share of close calls this season, and just fell short to the Eagles, 6-5, the only time the two teams met up this season, on April 13. If the Warriors win, they will move on to the semifinals, which will be on Tuesday against the winner of the No. 3 Westhampton vs. No. 6 West Babylon matchup.

PeRSPeCTIVeS We are all connected, even around the world One of the truly special aspects of Jewish life is the interconnectedness of the Jewish world. This trait comes to the fore on a holiday like Yom Ha-Atzma’ut, Israel’s Independence Day, which was celebrated on the Jewish calendar this year on May 12. Jews from around the world join together in remembering those who have died in bringing into being and defending Israel, praying for peace and security in Israel and the Middle East and celebrating the true miracle that is not just the return of the Jews to their historic homeland but also all the many accomplishments of Israel in the 68 years since BY RABBI AARON BENSON it was founded. The North Shore Jewish Center celebrated the special place Israel has for our community by joining the leader of another Jewish community, that of Poland, whose chief rabbi, Rabbi Michael Schudrich, was visiting Long Island last week. A native of Patchogue, Rabbi

Your turn

Schudrich graduated from Stony Brook University, where he was being honored during his visit. The chief rabbi has a unique attachment to NSJC, as he was a religious school teacher at our synagogue back when he was a student. He shared with us about the situation of the Jewish community in Poland. It certainly has its challenges. The Jewish community was nearly destroyed during the Holocaust, losing 90 percent of its numbers. Communism brought about more years of persecution. But since the 1990s, there have been some signs of growth and stability. Young Polish Jews today, for example, travel to Israel as part of the Birthright program, something young American Jews do, too. Rabbi Schudrich explained how a strong connection to Israel for his community is one of the achievements of Poland’s Jews. Learning about the rebirth of Jewish life in Poland was a hopeful story for our congregants to hear. And to learn that our co-religionists in Poland feel a deep commitment to Israel just as we do, too (our synagogue is planning a trip to Israel for this fall), brought home a deeper meaning to the holiday. For it reminded us that no matter where Jews may live all around the world, a love for Israel inspires us all. That made our Yom Ha-Atzma’ut particularly memorable this year. The author is the rabbi at the North Shore Jewish Center in Port Jefferson Station.

Warriors come away with first-round playoff win By Bill landon Miller Place struggled to keep pace with Comsewogue’s baseball team, as the Warrior bats did the talking in their Class A opening-round playoffs Tuesday afternoon. The Panthers tied the game, 1-1, early on, but 13-5 Comsewogue showed why it’s the League VI champion, as the team wore down Miller Place’s defense and put its opponent away 8-2. “They’re a tough team, but we came out and played great,” Comsewogue catcher Justin Virga said. “We hit the ball well, played great defense behind our pitcher and we pulled out a win. Today was a hard-fought game.” Comsewogue wasted no time. Jake Sardinia drew a walk that moved teammate John Braun over to second base, as Jordan Lisco stepped into the batters’ box. Lisco drilled a ground ball through the gap that brought Braun home for the early lead. “Today we hit the ball, played defense and that’s all you can do,” Lisco said. “We hit the ball with runners on base, which is something we’ve struggled with.” The Panthers answered back in the top of the second when Cole Francis, on a passed ball at the plate, advanced to third base. Teammate Kevin Kelleher layed down a perfect bunt that plated Francis to tie the game. Comsewogue bats cracked in the bottom of the inning, and Bryan Hurley drove the ball through the gap, sending David Heller, the go-ahead run, to second. With Joseph Ciancarelli at the plate, a passed ball moved both base runners into scoring position. Ciancarelli chopped an infield dribbler and Heller came sliding home, eluding the tag, for the 2-1 advantage. With Hurley on third, Ciancarelli stole second and Braun smacked the ball deep

through the infield, bringing Hurley home for a 3-1 lead with one out in the bottom of the third. Then, Ciancarelli found his way home on a sacrifice fly for a three-run lead. “They came fired up on their home field, so they weren’t just going to give it to us,” Miller Place head coach Rick Caputo said. “Honestly, I’m disappointed in the way my guys played. I think we missed a lot of opportunities, I think we played our worst game of the year and we saved it for the first round of the playoffs.” Miller Place threatened in the top of the third inning when Matt Paghidas and Tyler Schrimpf advanced to second and third, respectively, on another passed ball. Schrimpf crossed home plate to make it a two-run game, but that was all the team could muster. The Panthers pressured again in the top of the fifth with base runners at the corners, but the runner on first stretched his lead a little too far, and Comsewogue picked him off before an infield pop-up retired the side. With runners on first and third, the Warriors looked to put the game away in the

Miller Place made a pitching change as Christian McPartland relieved Thomas Bell on the mound the rest of the way. “My control wasn’t there all game — my curveball started working later in the game, but they’re a great hitting team and they were putting the ball in play and making things happen,” Bell said. It was a busy sixth inning for the Warriors, and they weren’t finished yet. Mike Stiles proved he was as deadly at the plate as he was from the mound, and ripped a fastball deep into the outfield, bringing Ciancarelli and Sardinia home with a stand-up double to break the game open, 7-2. “I knew they were a good hitting team, so I had to get ahead, mix up my pitches and it worked out in the end,” Stiles said. “We hit the ball pretty well, we played pretty good defense — it was a little sloppy in the beginning, but I knew the team had my back.” Lisco brought Stiles home with a deep sacrifice fly for a six-run lead. With gas left in the tank, Stiles made short work of the Panthers in the final inning, retiring the side in order for the victory. “We swung the bats well today, so I was pleased with how we hit the ball and as the game went on, we protected our lead,” Comsewogue head coach Mike Bonura said. “I wasn’t happy with our defense — we booted the ball around early in the game, which is uncharacteristic for us, because we’ve been throwing the ball and fielding the ball well all

year. Mike [Stiles] did a great job for us. We play again tomorrow, so we have to go right at them, same recipe — come out and play solid baseball and don’t make it too difficult.” No. 2 Comsewogue expected another strong pitching performance when Braun took the mound against No. 6 Mount Sinai Wednesday, but results were not available at press time.

Barbara “Bonnie” Jane Smith Vidal, 75, beloved mother, grandmother, teacher, costumer, actor and friend, passed away on April 28 peacefully, at home in Port Jefferson, surrounded by her three children following a lengthy illness. Born Sept. 21, 1940, to Gerald and Dorothy (Thompson) Smith, she grew up on Spring Street in Port Jefferson and recounted WWII victory gardens, learning how to swim at village beaches, attending movies at what is now Theatre Three and dancing to Elvis on the jukebox at Grammas’. After attending Middlebury College and spending a year abroad at the University of Madrid, she returned to Port Jefferson, marrying Spaniard Antonio Vidal, with whom she had three children. She taught

Spanish for more than three decades at Port Jefferson junior and senior high schools, where her father taught English. Among many teaching accomplishments, she implemented the ESL program, helping many Cambodian refugees learn English. After her retirement, she became involved with Theatre Three, acting and costuming alongside her dear departed friend, Brent Erlanson. Besides her parents, she is predeceased by her brother, John “Jack” T. Smith. She leaves behind three children: Raquel Vidal of Cold Spring, Diego Vidal of Georgia, Daniela Vidal of Seattle, and two grandchildren, Anneke Chan and Alexis Moody. A memorial service will be held at West Beach in Port Jefferson on Saturday, May 14, at 3 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations in her name may be made to the American Cancer Society. An online guestbook can be found at www.bryantfh.com.

Give it a rest on restrooms

The historic bank building, left, and the former town tax receiver’s office, right, are connected and located at the corner of Main and East Main streets in downtown Port Jefferson.

Parking spots are a bad deal for Port Jefferson In their determination to have Brookhaven Town’s former tax building in Port Jefferson sold to a developer, Brookhaven Town and Port Jefferson officials enacted extraordinary means to satisfy the parking requirements of the developer’s plans, guaranteeing no expense to the developer. The sale was made to appear to be complicated when in fact it was quite simply a gift to the developer. His plans called for a change of use from office to retail (30 new spaces) and the creation of five apartments (eight new spaces). Those eight spaces for the new tenants had to be in close proximity to the site, the 30 retail spaces could be provided elsewhere. The village gave the developer eight existing spaces, with the proviso that the village would continue to meter them. No new spaces were created. The town is allowing the

village to create 30 spaces in a portion of the town’s boat trailer parking lot along Beach Street, a half-mile from the tax building. This gift, to last up to 100 years, authorizes the village to meter those 30 spaces, keeping all the revenue. Those 30 auto-only spaces will deprive boaters of as many as 25 existing spaces which they have relied on for generations. Adding insult to injury, there is no other area in the village or town marina where boat trailer parking is permitted. The expense of this deal falls on those downtown businesses who rely on those eight spaces where soon tenants’ vehicles are likely to remain in place at no charge for long periods of time, not turning over as they normally do by shoppers. According to the village parking committee’s consultant, each space, if permitted to turn over, can generate up to $100,000 per

year to local businesses. This deal amounts to hundreds of thousands of dollars a year not going to local businesses relying on those spaces. Beach Street residential neighborhoods adjacent to the village’s new parking spaces will be facing the noise, litter and unsightly view of parked cars, every day and night. This deal establishes a bad precedent for the future of all Brookhaven Town parklands. It is unwise to have publicly owned town parkland facilities closed off from access and control of town residents. The village’s stated response as to why these extraordinary measures were taken is that without this the tax building would likely remain vacant today, belying the fact that more equitable measures were available but ignored.

Long before communities started talking about transgender people using bathrooms of the genders they identify with, our society has operated on a policy of privates being private. When someone walks into a male or female bathroom, no one already inside asks to inspect appendages or for legal proof of sex. And if urinators use separate, closed stalls, why does it matter what organs they have? This apparently does matter for some, given the debates taking place on our local, state and national levels regarding transgender people and which bathrooms are safe or appropriate for them to use. Those debates, however, often lose sight of common sense. There are those who want to prohibit anyone from using a restroom built for the sex other than the one they are legally labeled with, usually citing fear of predators posing as transgender to gain access to a different bathroom for nefarious purposes. We would like to ask those people two things: When has a legal limitation stopped a pervert from doing perverted things, and why would someone pretend to be transgender for a long period of time, enduring common things like public humiliation and bullying, just to one day enter a bathroom of the opposite sex and attack someone? If the latter were ever to occur, it would certainly be a rare instance — too rare to make the legislation, which is impossible to enforce, worth the cost of further alienating a group that is already marginalized and just wants to be accepted for who they are. It’s not like transgender people are using a toilet in front of others. In women’s public bathrooms, there are only private stalls, and a female transitioning to male would still use a stall in a men’s public bathroom. The least controversial solution is, of course, to have only unisex, single-person bathrooms. To that end, we would encourage developers on new projects, wherever possible, to construct those kinds of bathrooms as opposed to shared bathrooms. They are simply more comfortable for everyone anyway — who doesn’t like to be alone in a bathroom? But that isn’t necessarily a feasible fix for existing public spaces, not that we think they need to be fixed in the first place. In fact, the argument of transgender people using specific bathrooms opening a door for perverts reminds us of people who once feared homosexuals, contending that they were more likely to be pedophiles than heterosexuals. The details are different but the message is the same — they seem to think accommodating or accepting LGBT people will put their society at risk. We need to move forward in our thinking and understand that transgender people want the same thing in a public bathroom that the rest of us want: to pee in peace. Let’s not start a war over public toilets.

League to discuss electoral process for presidential election This year’s primary season has involved voters as never before. Many questions have been asked about how the process works, and the League of Women Voters of Brookhaven has announced a free event to learn more about them. On Wednesday, May 25, at 7 p.m. at the Patchogue-Medford Library, Neil Buffett, assistant professor of history, and Nicholas

Giordano, assistant professor of political science, both of Suffolk County Community College, will speak about the electoral process by which presidential candidates are selected: What is the difference between an open and closed primary and a caucus; how are delegates selected; what are super delegates; what is a contested or brokered convention; and what is the role

of the independent voter in the process? The League is and has always been nonpartisan and nonprofit and is sponsoring this free event, in conjunction with the Patchogue-Medford Library, as a service to the general public. All are welcome.

opinion Let’s get serious about smartphones

can’t see anything up close with my glasses on and I can’t see anything at a distance with my glasses off. I know, I know, welcome to getting old. Well, I’d like to give that aging process a big fat Bronx cheer. But, wait, technology can come to the rescue. No, I’m not talking about laser surgery and I’m not looking for a special blended form of bifocal, By Daniel Dunaief trifocal or whatever. No, you see, technology makes it possible for me to use my state-of-the-art smartphone without needing to see it. “Siri, send a text message to my wife,” I can say.

D. None of the above

To which the automatic voice activation feature will reply, “What is your wife’s name?” And then, when I don’t reply in time, the voice will say, “I’m not sure what you said there.” But assuming Siri and I can get on the same page about the desired recipient of my intended message, I can start talking into the phone and she will take dictation. No need for an administrative assistant like Mrs. Wiggins, courtesy of Carol Burnett, to take a memo. Except that, like Mrs. Wiggins, there are some potential comedic kinks in the system. For one thing, whenever I start a text or email with the word Hi, Siri only seems to hear the letter “I.” My texts start out with “I Dr. Smith.” It’s a poor start to have a missing letter at the beginning of a text or email that I can’t check because I can’t see well with my glasses on and I can’t take my glasses off in that moment. While Siri gets most of the words

right, sometimes she struggles with grammar and words that are pronounced alike — such as to, too and two. Or what I mumble. I admit that I don’t always speak clearly. In fact, when I say, “This is Dan,” people sometimes hear, “This is Stan,” because I don’t pause long enough before saying my name. I was discussing this problem with a friend of mine, who spends a considerable number of hours in the car each week, traveling from one job to another. He said he dictates emails and text messages on his phone constantly to make use of his travel time. “Hey, be careful when you’re dictating, particularly when you’re driving,” he cautioned. “Why?” I asked. “Well, you know that thing picks up everything you say, right?” “Yeah?” I asked, tilting my head to the side and waiting for a punch line. “The other day I was driving and

I sent an email that went something like this: “Dear Mr. Jones, I got your response to my invoice and … oh, so you thought cutting me off in my lane was a good idea? And you didn’t even use your blinker. Where’d you get your license? … I was wondering if we might discuss the additional cost of gas which, as you know, is … that’s how I would drive if I had a death wish, too … climbing. Anyway, I’m happy to discuss by phone or at a … thanks for sharing your music with us. That’s what we all want to hear when we’re at a traffic light, your music. Isn’t that how we got some dictators to surrender, by playing that kind of music outside their presidential estates? … meeting. OK, so give me a call when you have a chance.” While he said that was a slight exaggeration, he realized something was amiss when someone wrote back, “OK, next time I’ll use my blinker.”

an unwelcome but nonetheless real technique in business. These creditors of American debt would include other nations, as well as widows and orphans who buy U.S. government bonds because they believe in our creditworthiness — our honor to repay. People who cannot repay, while they no longer are imprisoned in a jail, are imprisoned by their actions. They are never trusted to the same extent again, and if they have to borrow in the future they pay a significantly higher rate of interest on the borrowed money, if they can get a loan at all. The same holds for nations. Those countries whose economies crashed have had to pay exorbitant interest on their bonds to entice new capital, and their people have been impoverished in the long run, leading to disastrous social unrest. History is rife with such examples. So what is a person, whose intentions at the time of borrowing were honorable but whose circumstances have dramatically changed through no fault of his or her own, to do with that debt? Borrowers may lose their jobs; they or a family member may get

sick and require ruinous financial support; insurance on property or health may be insufficient or nonexistent — and so forth. As the expression goes, “life happens.” Most commonly, the terms of repayment can be changed. A longer time in which to repay the borrowed money can be arranged, allowing the borrower a chance to recover from whatever the disaster. This lowers the monthly rate of repayment although it does increase the total cost of the debt. But it does preserve creditworthiness — and reputation. That solution only works, however, if there are good prospects down the line and a willingness on the part of the debtors to assume responsibility for their actions. In circumstances where there is no hope for recovery, then bankruptcy is the only choice. But the idea of those who know how to play the system bouncing from one loan to the next with little consequence is unacceptable and makes fools of us all. And those who make a business out of helping such individuals run off with other people’s money are worse yet.

Repaying debts with honor

oes it annoy you too when the pitchman in the commercial urges negotiating with your credit card company, with the advertiser’s help of course, to pay less than you owe? It’s the same message when it comes to “settling” with the IRS. “You don’t have to pay all that you owe,” By Leah S. Dunaief encourages the adman’s voice. “Call us and we’ll reduce your amount to a third without bankruptcy.” What about us poor schnooks who paid every last penny of what we owed? Were we incredibly stupid when we could have gotten off with far less cost? Maybe it’s only the rich who pay everything they owe, but I know that’s not true. Men and women will work two and three jobs to be able to meet their expenses, especially

Between you and me

those incurred for their children. They must not know that all they had to do was run up the bills — the higher, the better — then declare that they couldn’t afford them, and they would get a reduction of their debt. What has happened to honor? Maybe it is just those of us of a certain age who still carry these old-fashioned ideas in our heads. “Pay as you go” was my parents’ adage. The idea of a credit card puzzled them. If you couldn’t afford to buy a car when you wanted one, then wait until you had the money and you could buy it. Delayed gratification was admired. They were even dubious about a mortgage, although that became the American way after World War II. But the thought of not honoring one’s debts was anathema. In essence you gave your word when you accepted credit, and “your word was your bond.” People who walked away from their debts expected to go to prison, certainly not to call a “negotiator” who would beat down your creditor into accepting less — or nothing at all. Donald Trump raised the possibility of our nation reducing its national debt by bargaining with our creditors,
