Shavin’ it off

On Saturday, nearly 230 people and 28 teams from Northport and surrounding areas came together to shave their heads for the annual St. Baldrick’s Foundation fundraiser at Napper Tandy’s Irish Pub, an event that raises money to fund cures for childhood cancer. As of Wednesday, participants raised almost $115,000 and counting to

fund research on childhood cancer and honor more than 60 local children who had cancer — some who did not survive. The foundation reports that four out of five children with childhood cancer survive, a ratio the group and event organizers hope to increase to five out of five. For more St. Baldrick’s photos, see page A12.

A Northport teen will be standing on the steps of Capitol Hill, in Washington, D.C., this month to speak with lawmakers about Tourette’s syndrome. Jack Muise, 14, is a ninth-grader at Northport High School. At the age of 10, Jack was diagnosed with Tourette’s syndrome, a neurological disorder characterized by repetitive, stereotyped, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics, according to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. Sponsored through the national Tourette Syndrome Association, Jack was selected as a youth ambassador — a title that will give him the opportunity to attend a two-day training in Arlington, Va., with 39 other 13- to 17-year-olds, from March 23 to 25, to learn how to educate peers about the disorder. Jack, who says he is very excited about the training, learned about the program through his Tourette’s syndrome support group, which generally meets once a month from September through June in Old Brookville in Nassau County. The youth ambassador program originated from Jack’s own support group —

Local firefighters douse a blaze on New street in huntington village on monday night.

Carter said officials don’t believe it’s suspicious in nature. The town has placarded the laundry, bar and nail salon, which are all located in one building. The village has been no stranger to fires. Last year

there were five fires in Huntington village, according to Berry, and sometimes that just happens.“It’s all just cyclical,” he said. In the case of Huntington village, it’s common for fires to knock out more than one business.

“You’re almost always going to get that, the water and smoke damage to buildings next door,” Berry said. Suffolk County police and fire officials and the Huntington Town fire marshal are investigating the incident.

Berland tapped for water group By BarBara Donlon

Huntington Town Councilwoman Susan Berland (D) has a new role in protecting the town’s waters — a position she holds close to her heart. At this month’s Huntington Town Board meeting, Supervisor Frank Petrone (D) appointed the councilwoman to the Northport Harbor Water Quality Protection Committee Inter-Municipal Council for her legal background and her regular attendance and participation at meetings. The council is tasked with working

toward maximizing efforts to undertake projects, obtain grants and establish uniform rules and regulations aimed at protecting and improving water quality in the Northport Bay Complex. “Councilwoman Berland has been there attending every meeting and is very familiar with the work of this group,” Petrone said after introducing the resolution appointing her last week. Berland said she is honored to be a part of this committee. “I have been to all the meetings from the start and I am looking to continue,” Berland said. “I care about keeping our water clean.”

Huntington Town is calling on residents to flock to their waterfronts to feed starving birds. Frozen-over bodies of water have made it difficult for waterfowl to eat this winter, and town officials and residents at nearby marinas said they have been discovering dead birds, sparking the town-backed feeding campaign. “Local baymen and residents have reported seeing malnourished ducks and other waterfowl, in some cases too weak to fly, as a result of their inability to find food because of frozen bays and harbors,” Town Supervisor Frank Petrone said in a statement. “The prolonged ice has removed the sole food source for many migratory birds, prompting the town to take action to stem this heartbreaking situation.” The town ordered 2,000 pounds of feed and is now identifying volunteers to distribute it at various locations. Those include Billy Joel Park in Cold Spring Harbor; Gold Star Battalion Beach in Huntington; Heron Park in Centerport; Scudder Beach and Crab Meadow Beach in Northport; and the town parking lot adjacent to Price’s Bend in Eaton’s Neck. Town officials and others gathered Friday morning at Mill Pond in Centerport to kick off the feeding campaign. Groups of birds near the shore could be spotted foraging for scattered food.

Some of the birds stared quizzically at the local officials, who posed for photos behind bags of feed. The issue of starving migratory birds could evolve into a population problem later on, according to Ed Carr, director of the town’s Maritime Services Department. Birds that live up north in the Maritimes fly south to areas like Centerport for the winter, Carr explained, and then fly back up again to lay their eggs when spring starts. If they’re starving and too weak to fly home, the females could begin laying eggs here, confusing baby birds into thinking Long Island is their home and turning them into resident waterfowl instead of migratory waterfowl. That could create “three times the number of birds in August” locally, which could potentially create bacteria problems in the water relating to their feces, Carr said. “You basically want to fatten them up and get them out of here,” he said Peter Boller, head of local marina Centerport Boatworks Inc., said he found a dead swan against the dock with its head tucked under its wing a few days ago — something he said was “very rare.” He said he put out about 20 pounds of feed yesterday and by Friday morning “it was all gone.” “I think this program is a very good program,” he said. “Other people have to get on board with this to save these birds through the winter.”

were acing their AP art exams more than any other AP test in the school, “because that’s what the art program produces here,” he said. “It’s leadership in art that we need, and if not leadership, at least a transition time to find out what else to do,” Christina Holihan said. She brought up a proposal created by a newly founded group, Northport-East Northport Stands Up For the Arts. The Facebook group touts more than 200 members. Holihan called for a one-year moratorium on the arts cut until a new incoming superintendent could study the issue. “The concern tonight is that this drastic decision is a little premature and without the proper preparation to provide a smooth transition to fulfill the needs of our students, staff and faculty,” Holihan said. Members of the school board also made it clear that they were in support of the art department as well. Trustee

on June 30, 2016. Parents have been calling for upgrades to the district’s athletic facilities at recent meetings. In January, 27 people emailed the school district on the matter, saying the current state of the facilities at the district is “embarrassing.”

Stephen Waldenburg Jr. was among the many wearing a yellow flower pinned to his jacket, and he said how removing an art chairperson troubles him deeply. “Northport is known throughout the state for its art and is actually used as a model program throughout the other districts,” he said. “We’re a program to emulate.”

Following the training, all of the youth ambassadors, Jack included, will meet with their respective local representatives on the steps of Capitol Hill on March 25. Jack will be meeting with U.S. Rep. Steve Israel (D-Huntington), New York’s 3rd Congressional District representative, to advocate for support for the neurological disorder, he said. “I think people don’t understand, for me personally, it’s when I say inappropriate things that I can’t control and people think I’m weird,” Jack said. “I just want to be able to explain

what it is and make them aware and hopefully make them better people in general.” After returning to Long Island, Jack, along with the three other Long Island youth ambassadors, will visit schools throughout Nassau and Suffolk County to educate children about the disorder. Jack, who joined his support group three years ago, said that prior to joining, he never really knew or understood what the disorder was. “Jack’s been through a lot,” Jack’s mom, Stephanie Muise said. “He’s had a lot of challenges, even just today. He’s really focused on training and how to talk to people about Tourette’s and hoping to raise awareness. He really wants people to understand him.” Jack said that in his free time he likes to solve Rubix’s Cube and do card tricks. He also sings and is learning to play the piano. “Over the years I’ve heard great stories about the training in D.C. and presentations the other kids have made,” Jack said in a press release. “I’m really excited that it’s my turn. It will be great to be able to share my story and educate others about a very misunderstood disorder.”

Participants will plunge into the frigid waters to raise money to help send more New York families to Camp Sunshine, a national retreat in Casco, Maine for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families. Every polar dip participant is encouraged to raise a minimum of $100 in pledges. The Long Island Polar Dip partners with TeamRaiser, a popular online fundraising platform, to make it easier to

participate. To donate online, or to form or join a team, visit www.freezinforareason.com. For more information, call (207) 655-3800. Organizers have set a goal to raise $20,000 — enough to send 10 New York families to Camp Sunshine. Each participant who raises at least $100 in pledges will receive a coveted “I DID IT!” T-shirt. Crab Meadow Beach is located at the end of Waterside Avenue in Northport on Long Island’s North Shore. The area features a boardwalk, playground and restaurant. Registration will get underway at 11 a.m. with the dip set for 1 p.m.

Huntington Station residents on Thursday said they were outraged and scared by the shooting, as some have been working hard to combat crime in the area since the stabbing murder of 18-year-old Maggie Rosales in October. “We have dead teenagers and now we have police getting shot,” Huntington Station resident Jim McGoldrick, a neighbor of Rosales who has pushed for safety reforms, said in a phone interview.

DEC releases new plan for mute swans By Elana Glowatz

Following public outcry against a plan to eliminate wild mute swan populations over the next decade, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has released a new draft of its plan that focuses on “nonlethal” methods to control the birds. Thousands of people, including environmentalists and animal rights advocates, had sent in comments last year on the previous draft of the plan, whose stated long-term goal was “to eliminate free-ranging mute swans from New York State by 2025.” Many took issue with the DEC’s plans to euthanize the adult birds and questioned the validity of the department’s research on mute swans’ impact on the environment. In addition, state legislators approved a two-year moratorium on any plan to euthanize the swans and required the DEC to “give priority to nonlethal management techniques.” The first draft of the plan also called for using some swans for zoological purposes and transfer-

ring others to people licensed to hold them in captivity. According to the DEC, mute swans, which have orange beaks and make less noise than other types of swans, can contribute to high fecal coliform bacteria counts on bodies of water used for drinking or swimming. They can also attack humans, which can make them “a serious nuisance and render some land or water areas inaccessible for outdoor recreation during the nesting season.” There are about 2,200 freeranging mute swans in New York, the DEC has estimated, and they can be found on Long Island, in New York City and in the lower Hudson Valley and Lake Ontario regions. The population has jumped from where it was in the 1970s, when mute swans numbered fewer than 700. New York has other species of swan, but mute swans are considered invasive and non-native — they were brought here in the late 1800s and used for ornamental purposes — and thus were targeted for management. The DEC’s goal, as stated in the plan’s most recent draft, is to reduce the mute

swan population to its 1980 numbers: fewer than 800 birds. The DEC has been operating under the same species management plan since 1993, and the new mute swan plan would replace the older one. In preparation for the plan, the DEC conducted research between 2004 and 2008 “to document abundance, survival, reproduction, movements, ecological impacts and management of mute swans in New York.” Following public backlash of the first draft, the department this month released its new draft of the

management plan, which focuses on alternatives to euthanization, and a document responding to public comments it received. “Because many people object to the use of lethal control methods, especially killing adult birds, DEC will use ‘nonlethal’ methods … where practical and timely, to achieve the management objectives,” the new plan stated. Those methods could include terminating embryos in the swans’ eggs or placing the birds in licensed facilities. “However, this will require

some commitment of funding and assistance from organizations and individuals who wish to see nonlethal options used to the extent possible. Placement and proper care of swans in public parks or other controlled settings can be costly to local governments or communities.” Despite the emphasis on nonlethal methods, the DEC said in its response to public comments, officials would still resort to lethal methods “wherever immediate removal of birds is necessary to alMUTE SWANS continued on page A12

OPINION

There’s nothing ‘pal’-like about Palcohol

Your turn By Jay matuk

As a high school principal for the past 17 years, I am deeply troubled by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau’s recent decision approving the labeling of a new form of powdered alcohol called Palcohol. This substance can be easily mixed with water or any other beverage, making it a camouflaged cocktail drink that is as easy to make as lemonade or iced tea. On so many levels, I find this decision by the manufacturer, Lipsmark LLC, to market this prod-

uct a truly disturbing one. Schools across the nation are engaged in an ongoing struggle to address the rampant alcohol and substance abuse issues that plague our communities. Each year, educational leaders and support staff must be able to identify in our students the physiological symptoms caused by the latest “designer” drugs; each year, it seems some new pharmaceutical grade substance becomes popularized in mainstream teenage culture, and before you know it, you have an epidemic on your hands. Just look at the impact that misuse of opiates has had on young adults over the past few years. I know of far too many school districts that have seen current students or graduates succumb to this or other narcotics. I weary of attending more gut-wrenching funerals for children lost to this plague. Now we have the addition of a powdered alcohol mix, which can be added to any bottled beverage while hundreds of students occupy a cafeteria. There is just no level of adult supervision that could prevent the creation of such a cocktail in school. Adolescents being risk-takers by nature, one can only imagine the out-of-school “drinking game” opportunities this new substance would create as well. For the last three years, I have served on

H’fields kids tout anti-violence message

To continue a school tradition, students, faculty and staff at Oldfield Middle School in the Harborfields school district dedicated a day to support the district’s anti-violence policy with special assemblies, student artwork and performances. Each year, the school’s Character

Education Committee selects a theme rooted in the message against violence. To commemorate this year’s theme “OMS Imagines…” everyone was encouraged to dress in 1960s-inspired costumes and accessories. Throughout the day, each grade level

attended an awareness assembly that featured student artwork, homemade movies and a presentation by the school’s Tornadoes Listening and Caring Club. Sponsored by the committee, students entered an art or writing contest that addressed this year’s theme and projects were shared

during the assemblies. “We hope that by asking the students to dress up, create artwork and participate in the assembly, we can carry this theme throughout the school year,” said OMS Anti-Violence Day coordinator Jennifer Klein.

Scouts build birdhouses for seniors

Members of Troop 5 of the Boy Scouts of America recently visited residents of Atria, a senior living facility in East Northport.

The boys brought a project with them — wooden birdhouses, along with paints and supplies — and each boy teamed up with a senior citi-

zen to paint a decorative birdhouse. The annual Atria visit is one of many service events in which Troop 5 participates.

For superb athletes like 22-year-old Lianne Farber of Northport, bad weather conditions are just one more challenge that must be met and overcome, and she did just that at the 18th Annual Lazer, Aptheker, Rosella & Yedid Kings Park 15 Kilometer Run on March 14. Running through rain that was quite heavy at times, North Carolina University track and cross country star Farber turned in a top performance to win the women’s division. Farber crossed the finish line in 56 minutes, 17 seconds — a 6:02 minute per mile pace that brought her to the finish line over a minute in front of runner-up Aileen Barry of Manhasset. Other local athletes winning awards in the 15 Kilometer Run included Andrew Granger of Northport (1st, 14 years old and under), TJ Reid of East Northport (3rd, 40-44

age group) and Karen Potenza of Northport (2nd woman, 70-74 age group). The event was a fundraiser for the American Brain Tumor Foundation and the Frank Toto Memorial Foundation, which presents scholarships to deserving Kings Park High School seniors who will be pursuing business degrees in college.

leviate a site-specific conflict … and live-capture is not practical or no facility is readily available to accept the birds.” The new DEC plan’s agenda for minimizing the impacts of mute swans on other wildlife and habitats includes increasing public support and awareness; preventing new swans from entering wild populations “through intentional releases, escapes or natural reproduction”; and controlling the number of mute swans on downstate tidal waters. Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson), one of the legisla-

tors who worked to place a moratorium on the swan euthanization, said in a statement last week that the DEC “has heard our concerns and has begun to move in the right direction.” But the new plan still allows for swans to be eliminated under certain circumstances, and he cautioned that the birds “should only be destroyed as the absolute last resort, and only when they are posing public danger.” The public can comment on the plan until April 24. Comments can be submitted to FW.wildlf@dec.ny.gov or to NYSDEC Bureau of Wildlife, Swan Management Plan, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-4754.

North Shore . . . 49 Harborfields . . . 47 By Bill landon

It was a rematch from last year to decide the Long Island Class A girls’ basketball champion Friday night at LIU-Post, where North Shore looked to avenge its loss at the hands of Harborfields. They did, but by the slimmest of margins, as the Vikings squeezed out a 49-47 victory over the Tornadoes. Harborfields came out tight and struggled to find its rhythm, trailing 9-3 with 3:12 left in the first quarter where North Shore hit a pair of 3-pointers early. The Vikings controlled the boards and pressed from tipoff,

Senior forward Alex Werbitsky and sophomore forward Kate Tardo finished with four points apiece, and sophomore guard Falyn Dwyer rounded out the scoring with a free-throw point. Tunick took to Twitter after the loss: “Thank you HF for the best four years of my life. I am forever thankful for my 14 sisters who I love so much.” Harborfields, the Suffolk County and overall Section XI champions, ended the season with a 9-1 League V record and 14-5 overall mark. “They put in so much time and [it stings] right now, because they came together as a family and they accomplished so much.” Tietjen said. “I want them to look back at their entire season and see the big picture and all the success they’ve had.”

OPINION Fix the potholes

EDITORIAL

Do more than the bare minimum

Stock photo

New York Secretary of State Cesar Perales hit Hauppauge last week to outline Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s plan to increase the state minimum wage from $8.75 to $10.50. In his pitch, Perales projected a rippling economic impact that could potentially give 150,000 workers a pay raise and bring $382.3 million in value to Long Island. While this newspaper supports the notion of empowering our low-income earners with higher minimum wages, we still only see it as a one-dimensional, short-term fix that does not address the bigger issues of affordability. Raising the minimum wage is a risky move that could end up hurting us in the long run if not done in conjunction with other means to address inflation and making New York — and Long Island — more affordable and livable. Long Island has already been struggling to prevent its young people from relocating because of its lack of affordable living options, and raising wages could consequently end up bringing the cost of living even higher for those still hanging on. It’s already hard enough to live on Long Island as rents continue to skyrocket and costs continue to increase. That’s why we need a multi-pronged approach to coincide with the established proposal to raise the state minimum wage, which has increased a total $4.50 since 1991. There are plenty of pros to raising the minimum wage, and Perales outlined key points during his Hauppauge visit — he said the number of workers on Long Island earning minimum wage would jump from the current 85,264 to 202,248. But the state must not ignore the cons that come with such a move, including the potential layoffs at Long Island’s small businesses lining the main streets of our communities. Our leaders too often put short-term patches on long-term wounds. Those immediate fixes serve a purpose, but we should be looking at the bigger picture.

TO THe edITOR: Section 58 of the Highway Law exempts New York State from liability for pothole damages on state roads between Nov. 15 and May 1. Given that motorists pay taxes to maintain the road, they shouldn’t have to pay again because the roads aren’t properly maintained. The average driver spends $673 annually in additional vehicle maintenance costs due to inadequate road conditions. A.425 by Assemblyman Tom Abinanti and S.747 by Senator edward Kennedy attempt to reduce that number by removing the century-old exemption and providing an opportunity for unlucky motorists to seek restitution if the damage to their vehicle was caused by New York State’s neglect. I urge you to support this commonsense idea and work to pass this legislation. Ramon Abad east Setauket

Using scents in sweaty adolescent arguments

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

dolescence stinks. I’m not talking about the heightened age of self-consciousness, the potential for bullying, the physical and emotional growing pains, or the shifting alliances with friends who become enemies who become friends again. Those all stink applying the definition of the quintessentially American expression: “That stinks.”

What I’m describing is the literal smell, as in “Ooh, those roses smell beautiful”; or “Wow, that smell reminds me of the time I went to Montauk and we saw dolphins and whales while drinking aromatic hot chocolate with whipped cream.” With their spectacularly busy schedules, thanks to us, no doubt, teenagers live in the same uniforms day after day. The last thing we do before going to bed, or the first thing we do when we get up in the morning, is to throw those uniforms in the washing machine. We can’t and don’t wash their footwear every night. We can air it out, we can put deodorizers in it, we can even, in a fit of pique, rush out and buy them a new set of Storm Trooper cleats to protect ourselves, but, eventually, the sneakers in the cabinet by the door — or tucked in the basement — develop a cloud of toxic fumes above them.

On the positive side, I suppose, the horrific stench could be like smelling salts. If they are suddenly feeling tired or they bump into one wall too many, as soon as they go down on the ground, they smell their own and everybody else’s cleats and spring back into action. “I’m fine,” they say, as they wobble on one knee, “just get me off that floor.” Sensing that their sweat-driven, body-changing odors may be offensive, some children use deodorants, scented moisturizers or perfume — in the case of my daughter’s friends. That’s like diving into a pool that is way too hot and way too cold, confusing the senses without defeating the odor. I recently brought my son and a friend back from a basketball practice and pulled up next to a mom who was shuttling home six sweaty teammates. We rolled down our windows at a red light and my nose felt as if it had returned to the gym.

No car, not even one with a new car smell, would stand a chance against the pungent odors of adolescence marinating in her three rows of boys. “Oh, hey,” I said, as the boys greeted each other through their open windows. “I guess you got the bigger carpool duty today.” “Uh huh,” she grunted, making it clear she’d somehow drawn the short, smelly straw. “That’s, um, a lot of sweat in there, huh?” I said. She winced while concentrating on breathing only through her mouth. When the light turned green, I thought about those incredible first few months of our kids’ lives. The smells from the delicate shampoos were like the kind of subtle flavor waiters describe to entice us into ordering the specials of the day. Even after those magnificent miracles of life no longer occupied a room, their comforting smell made us forget the late

Maybe the smell assault is one more way to challenge authority figures.

nights of “what’s wrong with her, why won’t she go to sleep,” or the “why is she crying now,” reminding us, instead, of how sweet life can be. Maybe the smell assault is one more way adolescents challenge authority figures. When their feet enter the room, we don’t need to see their frustrated faces or hear their answerswith-attitude to know another battle is about to begin, filled with arguments that sometimes don’t make sense — and scents that make their own arguments.

A splendid turnout at Emma Clark library

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

y now, many people have heard of the Setauket Spy Ring and its leader, Benjamin Tallmadge that operated valuably during the Revolutionary War. For that and for putting Setauket “on the map,” so to speak, we can thank AMC’s “Turn,” the cable television program soon to begin Season 2. That these adventure stories have made our village famous I can vouch for personally. Many times, when I have been asked where I am from and have answered, “Setauket,” I have then

had to explain, even to Long Islanders, my hometown’s location as being between our betterknown neighbors, Stony Brook and Port Jefferson. Now people will sometimes respond, “Oh, the Setauket spies.” They may still not have a geographic grasp, but at least they are impressed. “Turn,” however, is just that, a series of adventure stories whose goal is to entertain and only accidentally teach. Unlike the popular series, “Downton Abbey” on PBS, where there is a full-time historian employed to assure accuracy of even the smallest details concerning the table settings, “Turn” makes up the narrative when the historic details aren’t convenient for the plot. That is not to say that all characterizations and facts are not correct in the TV series. We learned of some that are and some that are not at a panel Sunday afternoon in the Emma Clark library in “famous” Setauket. The event, directed and moderated by reference librarian, Carolyn Emerson, featured five distinguished historians

who answered questions from the moderator about the lives of citizens, soldiers and spies at the gathering titled, “Setauket During the Revolution.” The five were town historian Barbara Russell; Three Village Historical Society’s Beverly Tyler; Suffolk Cooperative Library System’s Mark Rothenberg; Third Regiment, New York historian Bob Winowitch; and Elizabeth Kahn Kaplan, lecturer and curator of the “Spies” exhibit at the historical society. Each panelist spoke for a few minutes, then answered questions from the standingroom-only crowd. For fun and instruction, most of the panel came dressed in clothes reminiscent of the Revolutionary War era. Tallmadge, founder and head of the network, was a major, active in the Revolutionary battles in the north, even as he organized and oversaw the spy ring they called Culper. Abraham Woodhull was the resident spy, later replaced by Robert Townsend, and Caleb Brewster served as a courier, ferrying messages across the Long Island

Sound to Washington in Connecticut. Others were deeply involved, including Austin Roe and Anna Smith Strong. The spy work was stressful and dangerous and involved the use of “invisible ink,” messages written between the lines of legitimate bills of sale whose words could be read only with the application of a special reagent. Much of the intelligence garnered came from mingling with the British in New York City, and so those spies had to have apparent reason to travel back and forth. One significant accomplishment of the spies was to alert Washington that the British were sailing with a superior force to greet the French, who had entered the war and were due to disembark in Newport, R.I. Washington was then able to plant a fake set of plans for the invasion of New York City where the British would discover it. Intent on keeping control of New York City, which they viewed as key to their success, the British fleet turned around in the Sound to rush back for the anticipated

battle. As a result, the French landed without opposition. Life on Long Island under eight years of British occupation was hard. Residents were routinely subjected to forays by British troops for food and valuables. The population at the time was agrarian, with hard farm labor the order of the day, and the British viewed Long Island as their breadbasket. No one was safe, and as a result many who started the war as Loyalists became Patriots — hence the title “Turn.” To judge the difference a TV series makes, in 2013 there were up to three visitors a week to the spy exhibit at the historical society, sometimes none; in 2014, there were 30. If you watch the AMC series, as I will on DVD, be sure to check the facts on any number of relevant websites.
