Trustee duo re-elected over familiar challenger

By Alex Petroski

Northport Trustees Jerry Maline and Damon McMullen will each have a third term at the helm of their village.

Maline and McMullen each secured a seat on the village board of trustees Tuesday night over challenger Joe Sabia, with McMullen receiving 955 votes and Maline receiving 733 votes, according to the clerk’s office. Sabia finished third with 519 votes.

Maline and McMullen, who first won their seats in 2008, will have another four years together.

“It’s a very good working relationship,” Maline said in a phone interview last week. “We don’t always agree on things, but we talk it out and we come to a consensus on what’s best for the village.

We support each other in our individual endeavors that help the village. We have a mutual respect for each other.”

One of the polarizing issues during this campaign cycle has been the board’s proposed budget, which would require piercing its tax levy cap with a 3.27 percent in-

crease, causing a larger increase in taxes.

During a candidates night on March 8, Maline said piercing the state-mandated cap and increasing taxes above the limit, which the board can do with a 60 percent vote, would accommodate resi-

dents’ desires for village services.

“The facts are the facts,” Maline said at the event. “We don’t want to lessen your service. All the input I have from the residents [is] that you want the services to remain the same.”

McMullen said he is proud of the work he has done with the village’s budget.

“It’s been a privilege to be a part of the team that has helped the village get the best bond rating it can get,” McMullen said at the event.

Challenger Joe Sabia, who served on the Northport-East Northport school board and also ran for mayor in 2014, was opposed to the idea of piercing the cap.

“When you start to override the tax caps, it becomes a very, very dangerous thing because that means you’re raising your taxes higher than the rate of inflation,” Sabia said at the event.

None of the three candidates responded to requests for comment on Wednesday.

Huntington Town is bringing the future to the present with its new parks and recreation brochure.

For the fi rst time, the town’s parks and recreation department seasonal catalog will be available online in a digital version. Aside from including standard information on the town’s athletic programs, camps and other activities which the town offers, this digital brochure includes videos of some activities and the ability to sign up directly from the guide with a single click.

“Th is interactive brochure brings the Town of Huntington into the 21st century,” Supervisor Frank Petrone (D) said in a video as he welcomes residents to the department’s new online brochure.

“Th is is government of the future, allowing residents to fi nd necessary information and to take care of business

without having to come to town hall.

We are proud of this brochure and the way residents can access the brochure and its great features from their home computers, tablets or smartphones.”

The guide, which changes pages just like flipping pages in a book, has realtime information on whether an activity is oversubscribed or if there is a waiting list, as well as updates on schedule changes. If residents have questions or concerns with any program, they can fill out a brief message in one click that will be sent to the head of whichever program they are asking about.

“The concept came about because we were sending these out to every household in paper format,” said Stephen Carballeira, who works in the information technology department for the town, in an interview. “Ninety-three percent of people were signing up online anyway, but the biggest complaint we

used to get was that they’d get [the brochure] in the mail but they couldn’t really figure out a way to work our system and sign up. It was just a big frustration.”

A.J. Carter, town spokesman, said that the possibilities with this brochure are “endless” and that this guide will continue to grow and expand.

The parks department has stopped mass printing and distribution of the brochure, which will save the town $50,000 each year. Not only is this decision cost effective, but it also greatly reduces the amount of paper waste the town produces, making it an environmentally friendly move as well, officials said.

But there’s more.

This new brochure saves money, makes programs and information more accessible to the public and reduces the town’s carbon footprint, while also making the town money, the town said.

While the interactive brochure cost about $3,000 to create, the town has made $7,000 in revenue from ads — and that’s just from this first issue alone.

Carballeira said ads have a life of about four weeks and then are replaced with new ones.

Currently, many town businesses cover the pages of the brochure and their ads are just as interactive as the rest of the information. The Little Gym of Huntington has an ad that features a video of young children playing in the gym, and Roar Beverages has an ad with a coupon anyone can print out.

Huntington superintendent Jim Polansky responded to the state audit in a letter.

The report recommended that the district develops “procedures to ensure it adopts more reasonable budgets to avoid raising more real property taxes than necessary.”

In a response letter to the comptroller’s office, Huntington Superintendent Jim Polansky explained his position on the report.

“Our budget is an estimated

spending and revenue support plan,” he said. “As such, the district will continue to appropriate fund balance at a level estimated to address a potential operating deficit, but will always strive to spend within budgetary constraints and access available revenues to offset that spending.”

Polansky cited increasing enrollment — due to the reopening of the Jack Abrams STEM Magnet School in 2013 and the opening of a housing development within district boundaries in 2014 — as the main drivers of increased budget appropriations.

School board President Tom DiGiacomo said Tuesday that the district would take all of the comptroller’s suggestions seriously.

“The administration and board have already taken and will continue to take the actions recommended by the comptroller in terms of responsibly analyzing historical trends in expenditures and revenue streams, while also considering fiscal uncertainties in particular areas,” he said in an email.

District administration and the board are in the process of drafting the budget for the 2016-17 school year. The next budget meeting is on March 21 at the Jack Abrams STEM Magnet School.

Movers & Shakers

H’Fields teacher goes beyond the classroom

BY VICTORIA ESPINOZA

For one teacher at Harborfields High School, ensuring her students receive a proper education doesn’t stop at academics.

Michelle DaSilva has been teaching world history at the high school for years, but in 2009 she started a new venture, as advisor to the Global Justice Club.

“This club is meant to let kids know what is going on in other parts of the world,” DaSilva said in a phone interview. She said there are about 70 to 80

kids involved in the club.

The first fundraiser the club organized was to collect baby supplies after Hurricane Sandy devastated the people of Haiti.

“I had just had a baby and I kept thinking about all the woman in that developing country who didn’t have diapers, or formula,” she said. The club found a local organization that worked with an orphanage in Haiti, where the members were able to donate the $1,500 in items they received.

Since then, DaSilva said the club has gotten bigger and bigger.

In 2010, the club organized the first global justice concert, which has become the main event the group works on during the year. DaSilva described the concert as an event “fully run by the students” that has helped the club raise more than $10,000 since it started. Members of the club hold auditions, promote the show, organize the raffle and host it, according to the teacher.

Two years into the event, DaSilva said she met Lucy Sumner, a former Harborfields teacher who traveled back to her hometown in Sierra Leone. She runs a nonprofit called Magic Penny, which provides financial sup-

port for educational, economic and agricultural programs within her country.

“Now all the money goes directly to her,” DaSilva said. “She’s an amazing woman, and what’s nice is that I know exactly where the money is going. When I put it in her hands, it’s being used for the right thing.”

Global Justice has raised enough money for Magic Penny to fund the building of a school, scholarships for students, teacher training programs and more.

Currently, DaSilva said they are raising money to help create a middle school since the first school they raised money for only teaches children up to fifth grade.

“These students are now having to go

Pajama party at Humpty Dumpty Nursery School in Greenlawn Humpty Dumpty Day Nursery School in Greenlawn recently took part in its eighth annual Pajama Program, a not-for-profit organization

that provides pajamas for children in need in the United States and around the world.

All the children took part and col-

into the city for middle school, where there is a lot of exploitation and unsafe circumstances, and their families cannot afford to travel with them,” DaSilva said.

Aside from the annual concert, the Global Justice Club also organizes and participates in many other fundraisers throughout the year, including a 24-hour famine where students are sponsored, food drives and education campaigns — one of which was a refugee project, where members of the club turned different hallways into parts of the world where there are large refugee problems.

“We want to be thinking globally,” DaSilva said of the club, “and acting locally.”

Daniel E. Rekus Daniel E. Rekus, 68, passed away on Feb. 5.

Rekus was raised in Brooklyn and resided in Port St. Lucie, Fla., for the past 10 years. He raised his family in East Northport.

He is survived by his loving wife Toni; three sons, Edward (Moira), Danny (Christina) and Peter (Allison); and six grandchildren, Jackson, Olivia, Peter, Patrick, Joseph and Ava. Rekus’ career with Radio Shack positively impacted the lives of many people over his 27 years with the company; he retired as a regional vice president. He will be missed by all. Arrangements were entrusted to Branch Funeral Home of Smithtown. A funeral Mass was celebrated at St. Patrick’s R.C. Church in Smithtown.

OPINION EDITORIAL

Towns need to be looking forward

At the risk of sounding like a cliché, the future is, in fact, now. And it’s up to our North Shore towns to embrace that fact.

Huntington Town unveiled a new initiative this week that makes it easier for residents to learn about and sign up for its programs with the click of a mouse, or the touch of a tablet.

The spring brochure from the town’s parks and recreation department was released online as an interactive document, which allows residents to watch a video about a summer athletic program, directly ask the program head any questions they may have and then sign up to participate, all with a few clicks.

This brochure is available on a desktop, tablet or mobile phone, and is not only keeping residents informed more easily, but also making the town money with new space for local advertisers.

Once we heard about this project, it seemed almost hard to believe that this technology wasn’t being utilized across the North Shore in other towns like Brookhaven or Smithtown.

This move cuts costs, adds revenue and reduces the town’s environmental footprint by stopping mass production

Residents of Huntington can now sign up for town park programs on their laptops, tablets and smartphones.

and printing of the paper brochures, Huntington officials said. This is a winwin for any town, and one that other towns should start mimicking as soon as possible. A town’s first duty is to serve the

people as efficiently as possible. Municipalities should constantly look to update their systems and make their communication efforts as progressive as possible.

We think North Shore towns should

he insults, the barbs, the teasing galore.

The candidates fight every night, but what is it for?

These men and this woman want our trust.

At this point, many warrant disgust.

Who are they who want a job like no other?

Do they listen, or do they make us shudder?

Are they good, are they smart,

On the right, Cruz, Kasich and formerly Rubio chase the man with the hair.

Trump is his name, and they want their share.

He’s a bully, a braggart and he’s way ahead.

The others sound desperate and they seem to see red.

Mitt Romney has come to throw sand in Trump’s face.

Mitt’s presence is odd, some say it’s a disgrace.

He lost but didn’t go gently into that good night, he’s worried about Trump and wants a fierce fight.

We like to believe we are part of a whole, but we have huge differences

down to our souls.

Some believe Muslims should all stay away, others suggest we should all have our say.

Protesters appear to cause commotion, the sounds and sights are fraught with emotion.

The wife of the president long ago, Hillary is under fire for making dough.

A university fight nips at his heels, Trump says, “It’s OK, the school is real.”

The debates offer jabs and tough one-liners, some of these leaders could be sporting shiners.

Tough choices now, the voters have to take sides.

With each new vote, there’s nowhere to hide.

The country is vast, it’s hard not to offend.

We’re different in New York from those in South Bend.

Bernie Sanders shares plans that people adore.

He wants the working class to have so much more, but can he do half of what he desires?

Or would he wind up putting out vast fires?

The people crave change, it’s clear as a bell.

The same old approach has no chance to sell.

We’re sick and tired of being tired and sick.

We the People don’t want something so slick.

The rhetoric has grown increasingly coarse, it’s ugly, messy and the leaders sound hoarse.

Who will you choose on Election Day? Do you really want anyone to stay?

Will the candidates discuss issues that matter?

Or will they just make their own pocketbooks fatter?

On what do we agree, from sea to sea?

What is there that’s common to you and to me?

Can you picture these people when they were kids?

Do you think they were proud of all that they did?

Were they good to friends, to teachers and foes?

Or did they know better than average Joes?

When one of them wins and wants to lead us together, will he or she make us stronger and help us get better?

They fight with their rivals and say others are wrong, how can any of them help people get along?

You have to vote, like it or not, it’s our duty, we’re in a big spot.

Tune out the bluster and the attacks, and ask yourself if they have our backs.

Who are they who want a job like no other?

Do they listen, or do they make us shudder?

Are they good, are they smart, do they have what it takes?

Can they bring us to glory and not become fakes?

Thought-provoking pajama games for seniors

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

news@tbrnewspapers.com

H

ere is a terrific idea for those of a certain age.

Have a pajama party with close friends at a distant and beautiful location of at least three nights duration. Why three nights? Because it takes that long for normally reserved people to open up and speak freely about life as they have known it. Why pajamas? For

the same reason. After a day filled with enjoyable activities, like sightseeing, shopping and dining, climbing into pajamas and meeting in the living room to chat goes a long way toward facilitating informality and frank exchange.

And why have such an experience? Because after a lot of years of living, seniors are expected to have amassed some wisdom with the answers to questions that habitually occur to us. One thing is sure: Probably no two people will have the same answers to all the questions, and hearing the different perspectives is thoughtprovoking and sometimes even comforting.

Now let me be clear. I am not suggesting orgies in the basement. I am saying that much has changed over the period of our lives, and those of us who have seen those changes can understand each other and even commiserate. It’s nice to be understood. It’s valuable

to hear how others have dealt with the same opportunities and challenges.

What are some of the subjects that might be discussed?

Death is certainly one. We all face an end to our lives.

How do we regard the inevitable? Are we afraid? Probably not so much. With age comes acceptance to a large degree. Is there an afterlife? A purgatory?

Will we again be with our loved ones? In fact, do we believe there is a God? And what is the purpose of life? There are no bounds to the scope of discussions. The subjects just flow from each other.

Then there are the endless conversations about children and maybe grandchildren. How have they fared? How much should we help them? What is in store for them? What problems do they have? Have their marriages held together?

There are the huge and sometimes incomprehensible

changes in sexual mores and in family values. There are still some who reserve sex for marriage but not many. The word “dating” can have a different connotation than it did when we were much younger.

Living together and having children without the benefit of marriage is no longer the object of shame. Yet it may be just difficult for older people to accept, especially if members of the family are involved in such arrangements.

The relationship between men and women and hence between husbands and wives has undergone revolutionary change. And the issue of rape has become public, especially rape on campus. There was no such mention by past generations.

Health issues are a perennial topic for conversation. Trading remedies, physician and physical therapist names, healthy tips for diets and dieting, exercise and stress reduction are LEISURE EDITOR Heidi Sutton SPORTS EDITOR Desirée Keegan ONLINE EDITOR Elana Glowatz ADVERTISING DIRECTOR Kathryn Mandracchia

common themes. Discussions of the outcomes from hip and knee surgeries and even dental implants fill the airwaves and can truly offer needed information and help.

Music is another area of tremendous change. What one generation danced to, another can find boring. But there is unending admiration by seniors for the younger generation’s mastery of cellphones, laptops and the Internet. Yet there are some older folks who adamantly resist texting.

The truth is that we all need support groups and affirmation. We can also benefit from well-placed critiques that can be more easily accepted from contemporaries.

And there is always lots of room for laughter, even belly laughs.

Pajama parties can provide the context for such engagement. Besides why should only kids have all the fun.

way on Thursday night when we play a small team out there in Kentucky,” he said, laughing. “I think they have a basketball program out there.”

But on a more serious note, the coach said he appreciated all the support he’s received throughout the years, and how hard his team has worked to get to the position it’s in now.

“So many good people have helped us get to this place,” he said. “This team did something that no team in Stony Brook history did. It’s hard to make history, and they got through every obstacle this year and I couldn’t be more proud of them.”

According to Pikiell, there are 358 teams that start off the season wanting to be in the NCAA tournament, and just 64 get a chance to punch a ticket to the first round.

“We did it,” Pikiell said. “We broke through.”

The team filed out to a red carpet, highfiving the fans that cheered as they swarmed around the 14-man roster as it boarded the bus to begin the long trip to Iowa.

“They want to feel your energy in Des Moines, Iowa, so bring it on Thursday,” Stony Brook athletic director Shawn Heilbron said. “This team is a special team and you’re going to see some special things on Thursday night.”

The berth is the first for Stony Brook (26-6) in its Division I history. The Seawolves, known then as the Patriots, last made the NCAA tournament in 1991 as a member of Division III. Stony Brook and

Kentucky faced each other in 2007, and the Wildcats held off the Seawolves, 62-52.

The game tonight will be televised on CBS, and the winner will face Indiana University or The University of Tennessee Chattanooga in the second round.
