Lloyd Harbor house goes up in flames Six Huntington-area fire departments worked together last Wednesday night to fight a fire that caused extensive damage to a home in Lloyd Harbor.

Huntington Fire Department responded to a call at 8 p.m. on April 6 for a residential structure fire on Seacrest Drive in the Lloyd Neck neighborhood of Lloyd Harbor that involved the house’s attached garage and second floor. The Halesite, Cold Spring Harbor, Huntington Manor, Centerport and Greenlawn fire departments assisted the Huntington department. About 85 firefighters used ten trucks to get the fire under control in two hours, under the command of Chief Jesse Cukro, supported by Assistant Chiefs Rob Conroy, Brian Keane and Scott Dodge.

Firefighters were able to stop the blaze and contain the damage to the center portion of the home. No residents were home at the time of the fire, and there were no injuries reported. The cause of the fire is under investigation by the Lloyd Harbor Police Department and Suffolk police arson squad.

New York preps for important presidential primary John Hayes, Coram

Grace Marie Damico, St. James

Q: Will you vote in the primary?

A: Yes Q: Why? A: Because it’s too dangerous not to vote. It’s a very important election. I believe Donald Trump is a very dangerous man. I believe that every vote counts against him. If you don’t vote, it’s a vote for Donald Trump.

Q: Will you vote in the primary?

A: Yes. Q: Why? A: Because I think that the country is in dire straits right now, and the more people that get out and vote for who they prefer, the better the country will be. Hopefully we can bring this country back.

Charles Spinnato, Port Jeff

James Turrill, Mastic

Q: Will you vote in the primary?

A: Yes. I want to choose who I want to vote for [and] who I want to be the nominee for the Republican Party. So I would vote in the primaries to make that choice. [It’s a] very interesting election this year.

Q: Will you vote in the primary?

A: I’ve never voted in the primaries before but I want to.

Q: Why? A: I’m fed up with politicians.

Look what [U.S. President Barack] Obama has done to this country. He’s destroyed it. I want somebody not like him.

Voters to pick their nominees on Tuesday, April 19

BY Giselle BarkleY

The 2016 U.S. presidential candidates from both sides of the aisle made their way to New York to continue rallying support this week.

And by next Tuesday, New Yorkers can make a difference when they vote for their nominee in the closed primary.

Suffolk County Republican Chair John Jay LaValle said this is the first primary in three decades where New York State’s vote is this relevant.

“By the time the vote gets to New York, it’s usually over and it’s a functional exercise when the candidates run,” LaValle said.

When asked how running in New York differed from campaigning in other states, LaValle said, “New Yorkers like to hear it straight.” The Republican chair added that voters in this state are very engaged, intelligent and are more skeptical when it comes to casting a vote.

But Lillian Clayman, chair of Brookhaven’s Democratic Committee said “unless there’s this huge ideological chasm with the candidates,” running in New York isn’t much different than in other states.

The presidential primaries allow voters to help determine the presidential nominees for their respective parties. Of the nomi-

nees, GOP frontrunner Donald Trump is doing well on Long Island, LaValle said. He added that people are getting tired of hearing the typical political rhetoric they hear from the other 2016 presidential candidates.

Although Clayman said she doesn’t know what’s to come for next week’s primaries, she said Democratic nominees, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-Vermont) have energized residents, even those who usually don’t vote during the primaries.

Registered voters can choose their nominees on Tuesday, April 19.

Rep. Zeldin stumps in for veteran health bill

By PhiL CoRSo

The fight to expand veterans health services made a pit stop in Stony Brook before hitting Washington, D.C. U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) took to the Long Island State Veterans Home last Thursday and stood before a room filled with veterans standing to benefit from a piece of legislation he said would expand disabled veterans’ access to adult day health care. He garnered widespread support from the local level before taking the fight to the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, which scheduled a hearing on his bill for April 20.

“It must always be a top priority of Congress to ensure that all veterans receive the proper treatment and care they deserve after fighting for our country,” Zeldin said. “My bill, which has strong bipartisan support in Congress, with over 45 co-sponsors including the entire Long Island Congressional Delegation, is just one more way that we can expand care for veterans.”

H.R. 2460 was written to enhance care for service members who are 70 percent or more disabled from a service-connected injury, which Zeldin said often required hands-on assistance in order to complete everyday tasks. In Stony Brook, the Long Island State Veterans Home is only one of three facilities nationwide to offer a program called adult day health care, which delivers an alternative to nursing home care for disabled veterans and their families. But the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs does not cover such an expense at state veterans homes, putting a greater burden on service members’ wallets.

If passed, Zeldin said, the legislation would help expand this program, which could be offered at any of the 153 state veterans homes across the country.

Fred Sganga, director of the Long Is-

land State Veterans Home, said the legislation would fix a harrowing disparity that disabled vets face on a daily basis.

“Since the original legislation to provide no-cost skilled nursing care to our veterans who are 70 percent or more service connected disabled was passed into law in 2006, those veterans who could possibly be served by an alternative like medical model adult day health care have been shortchanged of this wonderful opportunity,” he said. “Congressman Zeldin had the resolve to recognize this issue and bring an appropriate fix not only for the Long Island State Veterans Home, but for the other 152 state veterans homes across the country.”

Noreen Saladino, whose husband James receives adult day health care to help combat the effects of being exposed to Agent Orange while serving during the Vietnam War, said the program has given her a new life.

“My personal life changed when James entered adult day health care,” she said. “It keeps him safe and comfortable.

Dr. Kenneth Kushansky, dean at the School of Medicine and senior vice president of Health Sciences at Stony Brook University, said the congressman’s bill advocated for a critical piece of veterans health care exercised at both Stony Brook Hospital and the 350-bed Long Island State Veterans Home.

“Stony Brook Medicine wants to acknowledge Congressman Zeldin for submitting this legislation on behalf of veterans and their families,” he said. “Providing funding for a long-term care alternative, like medical model adult day health care, will give our veterans and their families much deserved choice. Stony Brook Medicine serves as a model for the rest of the nation as it relates to long-term care for our nation’s heroes, and we are proud to be a part of this initiative.”

Trotta targets Suffolk County’s red light cameras

BY Phil Corso

When it comes to Suffolk County’s red light camera program, Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) has seen enough.

Trotta took to the intersection of Indian Head Road and Jericho Turnpike in Commack on Monday to call on the county to pull the emergency brake on its red light camera initiative and reevaluate, citing an increase in traffic accidents with injuries at that location.

The legislator picked that red light camera location because the county’s 2014 Red Light Safety Program report showed crashes with injuries had gone up more than 100 percent there, making it a prime spot to prove Trotta’s point. The annual report said the yearly average of reported crashes with injury went from 8.7 before the camera’s installation to 19.3 after. The camera at that intersection was installed in January 2014, giving the 2014 report 11 months of traffic data to work with while comparing it to traffic patterns recorded over three years between 2007 and 2009.

Back in October, Trotta joined other Republican lawmakers from Suffolk County to solicit input from the public about the red light camera program. At the time, he said residents alerted him about an increase in rear-end crashes since people were stopping abruptly at yellow lights to avoid being ticketed. The 2014 annual re-

port on the red light program proved that notion. According to the report, rear-ends increased by 42 percent since the cameras were installed.

“Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone has turned the residents of Smithtown into crash test dummies,” Trotta said Monday.

“This is just another example of [the Bellone administration’s] attempt to raise revenues through ‘taxation by citation.’”

But the county’s Red Light Safety Program was enacted in 2009, while Bellone became county executive in 2012.

The annual report said the county collected $27.5 million in citation payments in 2014 and paid $9.5 million to the vendor to operate the program. The net proceeds were credited to the county’s general fund.

Paul Margiotta, executive director of the county’s Traffic and Parking Violations Agency, defended the county’s program while citing the report’s evidence of decreasing crash figures coupled with increasing trends of distracted drivers.

“The Suffolk County red light camera program has reduced accidents involving injuries at intersections with cameras and dramatically reduced right-angle accidents, which have the highest potential for serious injuries or even fatalities, by more than 20 percent,” he said. “Unfortunately, accidents throughout all of Suffolk County have increased, primarily because of distracted driving. … It is clear that Suffolk

‘This is just another example of ... “taxation by citation.”’

legislator rob Trotta goes over legislation to suspend the camera program.

County needs to do more, not less, to address traffic safety.”

At intersections with cameras, overall crashes decreased by 3 percent and crashes involving injury decreased 4 percent, according to the county report.

Trotta’s pleas came on the same day repeat offender Stephen Ruth, of Centereach, was arrested for allegedly tampering with 19 of the cameras throughout the county.

Ruth was first cuffed in August for allegedly using a pole to reach several red light cameras in Ronkonkoma and turn

their lenses away from the road and toward the sky. He was charged with criminal tampering and obstructing governmental administration. Police said this week that Ruth “cut wires and manipulated equipment” on 18 more cameras between April 9 and 10. The 19th camera incident in question dates back to Jan. 18, police said, when Ruth allegedly cut down a camera pole at the intersection of County Road 83 and Old Town Road in Coram.

According to a police estimate, the incidents caused at least $25,000 of damage.

Ruth, 43, has been charged with two felony counts of second-degree criminal mischief. Hauppauge-based attorneys William J. Keahon and Craig Fleischer are representing him on those charges but are not commenting on the case, according to their law office. In interviews Ruth — whom his supporters have dubbed the “Red Light Robin Hood” — has stood behind his actions. He has received praise from people who oppose the county’s red light camera program and say it is simply a money grab, as the county receives much revenue from the tickets generated.

Fans salute Stanley Cup-winning Islanders coach

BY ALEX PETROSKI

Huntington residents had the chance to say goodbye to an unforgettable champion.

On Friday, April 8, New York Islanders fans and former players gathered at the Church of St. Patrick in Huntington for a Mass celebrating the life of Al Arbour, the team’s late head coach who led the team to four straight Stanley Cup Championships starting in 1980. The Islanders are the only American team to ever do so in the National Hockey League.

The 19-year coach, a former Cold Spring Harbor resident, died in August, 2015, at 82 years old. He and his family were members at the Church of St. Patrick in Huntington for more than 30 years.

Arbour won 119 playoff games with the Islanders, which is an NHL record for most wins by a coach with one franchise.

During the 1980s, Arbour led the Islanders to 19 straight playoff series wins, which is still a record for all of North American professional sports. He was elected to the NHL Hall of Fame in 1996.

“Al was a man of respect, integrity and honesty,” said Joe McMahon, the team’s former equipment manager and one of the organizers of the week’s events, during a phone interview last Thursday.

“He had a massive impact on the community. For kids that are playing hockey

New York Islanders coach Al Arbour died last year.

now on Long Island, I don’t know if you’d even be playing hockey on Long Island if it wasn’t for Al. Who knows if hockey would have survived on Long Island.”

Some Islander greats, including Clark Gillies, Bobby Nystrom, Denis Potvin, Chico Resch and Pat LaFontaine, attended the Mass. McMahon said he and other alumni

chose April 7 and 8 for the events because playoff time was very special to Arbour, and the Islanders-Rangers game at Madison Square Garden last Thursday night presented a perfect opportunity for fans and alumni to come together to remember the legendary coach while watching the game.

Former Islanders’ goaltender Glenn “Chico” Resch, who played from 1973 to 1981, called Arbour kind, merciful, patient and full of humility.

“Al certainly wasn’t perfect, but in my life, he had the greatest impact, and it was because of those qualities that we loved our beloved coach so much,” Resch said during the Mass, struggling to fight back tears.

Gillies, who was elected into the NHL Hall of Fame in 2002 and played under Arbour for more than a decade and was a key contributor in all four Stanley Cup seasons, delivered the eulogy Friday. After sharing stories and laughs about his time spent with Arbour, Gillies read from a poem.

“I read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of a friend,” Gillies read. “He referred to the dates on his tombstone that dated from the beginning to the end. He noted that first came the date of his birth, and he spoke of the following date with tears. But he said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years,” Gillies continued.

“Al, thank you for letting me share

‘For kids that are playing hockey now on Long Island, I don’t know if you’d even be playing hockey on Long Island if it wasn’t for Al.’ — JOE MCMAHON

your dash,” Gillies said at the conclusion of the poem.

The Mass came on the heels of a celebration last Thursday at the Fox Hollow Inn in Woodbury that included dinner, cocktails, appearances by current and former Islanders players and televisions broadcasting the Islanders 4-1 victory over the Rangers. Panel discussions hosted by Islanders broadcaster Jiggs McDonald carried on between periods of the game.

All net proceeds raised by the events were donated to the Al Arbour Fund, which benefits dementia research. McMahon said dementia contributed to Arbour’s death.

The Islanders concluded a successful regular season in their first year playing at Brooklyn’s Barclay’s Center, after 43 years at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale. The team will start a playoff run for its elusive fift h Stanley Cup this week.

“We lost a legend,” McMahon said.

He said some of the protocol changes have already been implemented in the current emergency department, cutting down patients’ wait time by an average of 48 minutes, due to methods like including physicians when a patient is first being triaged and beginning blood work sooner, but added that he is excited to see

further changes implemented.

“I think for the patients, the experience is going to be just phenomenal,” Brogan said.

Awards have followed the success of Huntington, with the hospital recently named a national 2016 Leader in LGBT Healthcare Equality by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. The hospital is one of 11 named to this list, in the Northwell Health system. The nursing staff at the hospital also received Magnet Recognition for excellence in nursing for the past 12 years, a national recognition that less than eight percent of hospitals worldwide have earned.

“If we are going to do something [at Huntington Hospital],” Borgan said, “we do it as well, if not better, than anywhere else in the country.”

Northport art students get gold Northport High School art students Nicholas Conrey and Ryan Penrose and teacher John DeRosa were recently selected to receive gold medals at the 2016 National Scholastic Art & Writing Competition.

This year, nearly 320,000 works of art and writing were submitted, and only the top 1 percent of submissions was recognized at the national level. These students have been invited to attend a ceremony at the world-famous Carnegie Hall on Thursday, June 2.

Fini and Heinicke get Chancellor’s Award Elisandra Fini, of Huntington, and Rachel Heinicke, of East Northport, are among the 12 students from Suffolk County Community College who have earned the Chancellor’s Award for Student Excellence. It acknowledges students who have demonstrated their integration of academic excellence with other aspects of their lives, including leadership, campus involvement, community service, arts (creative or performing), athletics and career achievement.

It is the highest honor bestowed

upon a student by the State University of New York.

The students were presented with the awards by SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher at a gala ceremony at the Empire Plaza Convention Center in Albany.

Fini, a chemical dependency counseling major, maintains a 4.0 GPA and has earned Dean’s List recognition every semester during the last two years.

Heinicke, a liberal arts and psychology major, has earned Dean’s List recognition every semester during the last two years.

Times Beacon Record Newspapers’ six community papers received seven awards in the 2015 New York Press Association’s Better Newspaper Contest this past weekend.

Sports editor and Village Beacon Record editor, Desirée Keegan, won sports writer of the year for her coverage of athletics from all over the North Shore.

A judge said, “I was impressed by Desirée Keegan’s versatility as a sports writer and her ability to draw the reader into her stories with creative, inviting and yet simple leads. Once you started reading, you wanted to know more about the subjects of her stories.”

Elana Glowatz, who is editor of The Port Times Record, won second and third place for best feature story in her division for two stories judges described as “well told, with perfect quotes” and “very interesting ... with much human interest.”

Giselle Barkley, reporter for all six Times Beacon Record papers, received honorable mention for rookie reporter of the year under The Village Times Herald flag. The judges said they were impressed with her versatility in subjects she covered.

Heidi Sutton, editor of Arts & Lifestyles, received honorable mention for a picture story with The Village Times Herald. “Giving a local camera club a couple pages for some terrific photos gives back to readers,” judges said of Sutton’s work.

Middle school student composes for classmates

By Alex Petroski

Eighth-grader Julien Rentsch is already a celebrated music man in his community.

Julien, a 14-year-old at J. Taylor Finley Middle School in Huntington, has been composing music for years and the Finley Honors Orchestra has helped bring his music to life.

For the past two years, the orchestra has performed Julien’s pieces during their concerts under the direction of music teacher and conductor Matthew Gelfer.

“I think having a student like Julien in my orchestra is kind of what you hope for as a music teacher,” Gelfer said in a phone interview.

This past March at a concert at Huntington High School, Julien accompanied the orchestra on the piano during a performance of his piece, titled “Free Spirit.”

“It’s really cool,” Julien said in an interview on Friday. “It was amazing just to hear onstage and the crowd and everything.”

Julien’s parents are both professional photographers, so the arts were a major part of his upbringing. He started playing piano when he was 6 or 7, though Julien said he is not a tireless worker who practices constantly. His father, Andreas Rentsch, agreed.

“It comes almost naturally,” Rentsch said of his son’s musical abilities. “He has that ability to transform his notes into

Julien rentsch composed two pieces that the Finley Honors orchestra has played.

beautiful music without really, I would say, trying too hard.”

Julien said he has a process for composing music. He starts by coming up with melodies to be played on the piano,

then adds and subtracts separate tracks from five different instrument groups.

He said he works like a chef, adding a dash of strings or a pinch of horns until his recipe is a perfect blend. Julien

has three complete pieces composed for full-size orchestras.

Mother Helen Rousakis said she enjoys watching her son on stage, working with the rest of the orchestra.

“I had a perfect view and [Julien was] just having a ball,” Rousakis said of last year’s performance. “He was laughing, he was making eye contact with others. I was just blown away by the camaraderie, how they all just love to work together.”

Julien and both of his parents stressed the impact that Gelfer has had on Julien as a musician.

“Julien is just such a mature kid,” Gelfer said. “A lot of composers can be really precious about their work and what they do, [but] he came at it with a collaborative attitude.”

When it comes to the future, this 14-year-old knows exactly what he wants: to compose musical scores for films one day. He enjoys the work of John Williams, who composed music for the “Star Wars” and “Harry Potter” films, among others.

For now the rest of Julien’s time is filled as a multisport athlete and a musician at Greenlawn’s St. Paraskevi Greek Orthodox Shrine Church, where he sings in the junior choir and plays piano for church fundraisers.

“If I’m into something, I’m just into it,” Julien said about his love of music. “I don’t stop.”

Tucker takes titles at Taco Bell Classic Boys’ Track & Field

It was the Infinite Tucker show last weekend at the Taco Bell Classic at Spring Valley High School’s Harry Parone Stadium in Columbia, South Carolina. The Huntington senior walked away with four medals, following a classic finish in the premier relay race.

Tucker won the 400-meter high hurdles, came in a close second in the 110 high hurdles, anchored the Blue Devils’ winning 4x400 relay and finished fourth in long jump. His performance helped Huntington finish in a tie for second place in the team standings with 41 points. The competition drew more than 2,500 competitors from nearly 300 high schools across more than a dozen states.

day competition was the 4x400 relay finals that pitted Huntington against longtime rival Archbishop Carroll of Washington, DC and Newton, in New Jersey, which won the team championship.

Kyree Johnson, Lawrence Leake and Shane McGuire handled the first three legs of the race before Tucker took over.

“Infinite gave it everything he had,” Huntington head coach Ron Wilson said.

The senior sprinted the final 400 meters and dove across the finish line while the Blue Devils held their collective breath. It was a photo finish with Archbishop Carroll, and officials took their time trying to determine the winner. About five minutes passed before it was announced that Huntington had won by 1/100th of a second in a time of three minutes, 22.13 seconds. The event drew 59 relay teams. Newton took third place in the race.

Huntington gets swept away by Tornadoes Girls’ lacrosse The Huntington High School girls’ lacrosse team is hurting. The Blue Devils have five players sidelined with injuries.

Huntington dropped an 11-8 verdict to Harborfields last Friday. Blue Devil senior Emma DeGennaro tallied six goals and two assists and sophomore Emma Greenhill notched a pair of goals. Elizabeth Berejka stopped six shots in goal.

Huntington led early in the game, but the Tornadoes came storming back and led 5-3 at halftime. The Blue Devils were outscored in the second half, 6-5.

Ella Simkins scored four goals and added two assists to lead Harborfields in Division II. Mikayla Bergin scored two goals and had an assist and Caitlin Schaefer added two goals. Grace Zagaja had a goal, an assist and six draw controls.

DeGennaro has 22 goals and nine assists through the first five games of the season. The senior is headed to Brown University in the fall. She plans to play on the NCAA Division I lacrosse team there.

Huntington hopes to have several of their injured stars back on the field within the next two weeks and plans to make a push for a postseason berth.

The Huntington girls’ lacrosse team

stayed within striking distance last week at Shoreham-Wading River, too, before faltering in the second half as the Blue Devils were outscored 9-2 on the way to losing 19-8.

DeGennaro led Huntington with four goals. Camille Stafford scored twice and Irina DeSimone and Ryann Gaffney also found the back of the net. Berejka made four saves.

“It was an incredible finish to a weekend filled with great competition,” Wilson said. “We had some nice performances.”

Huntington’s 4x800 relay shined in a race that drew 52 entries. McGuire, Mitch Rudish, Tom Kopstein and Kyle O’Brien finished second in a time of 8:07.81.

“They were magnificent,” Wilson said.

The Blue Devil star finished in a time of 53.72 seconds. He was second in the 110 high hurdles after running 14:56 in the finals, nearly a half second off his qualifying heat time. Tucker clipped the last hurdle in the finals, which slowed him down.

Although Tucker was slightly off his game in long jump, a week earlier, he tied a 34-year-old Huntington record in the event with a leap of 24’6. He placed fourth last weekend at 22’3.

Leake was 13th in a field of 99 in the 400 run in a time of 50.52 seconds, Johnson was 18th in a field of 160 in the 200

OPINION Not about money

Photo by Phil Corso

A county report says Indian Head Road and Jericho Turnpike in Commack saw crashes increase since a red light camera was installed in 2014.

EDITORIAL

Too late to brake

Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta (RFort Salonga) put the county’s red light camera program back under the microscope this week, as he should. We appreciate his watchdog approach when it comes to the county’s finances — he went so far as to call the red light camera program, which photographs and tickets cars that run through red lights or don’t come to a full stop before turning right on red, “taxation by citation.”

This newspaper has been historically critical of the program, and when the county released its 2014 annual report on the matter, it reminded us why.

In 2014 alone, the county collected $27.5 million from about 321,000 citations issued. Most of that was profit — Suffolk paid the camera vendor only $9.5 million to operate the program. And the county’s net revenue that year represented an exponential increase from when the cameras went live in 2010.

We are not ignoring the statistics, though. We recognize that overall crashes decreased by 3 percent, right-angle crashes went down by 21 percent and crashes involving injury decreased 4 percent.

Rear-end crashes, however, went up 42 percent.

But Suffolk County has gotten into a dangerous habit. While some lawmakers and residents remain critical of the cameras, our government now has several years of ever-increasing citation dollars going to the county’s general fund. If we were to nix the red light camera program, it would leave a gaping hole in the county’s pocketbook. Rather than cutting equal expenses, we all know where our government would turn to make up the difference: taxpayers’ wallets.

At this point, the best solution would be to go back in time and never allow the program to pass in the first place. Instead, we urge our lawmakers and neighbors to continue to be critical of the red light camera program and keep it honest as it evolves across our county. If there’s no way to dismantle it without passing the buck onto taxpayers, we hope together we can at least find a happier medium.

TO ThE EDITOR: This week the television media has been providing a Long Island man with a ridiculous amount of air time. What did he do to get this coverage? he cut the wires leading to several red light cameras.

I would like you to visualize something I experienced many years ago as a Suffolk County auxiliary police officer in the Town of huntington. There had been an automobile accident at an intersection. A paramedic friend of mine was carrying a 2-yearold from one of the wrecked cars to an ambulance. The 2-year-old put his arms around my friend’s neck, said “I love you, Daddy,” and died. I can’t remember that night without crying.

Try to imagine that 2-year-old is your child or grandchild. Then imagine someone who thinks we don’t need red light enforcement has indirectly caused that “accident.”

Now visualize a 19-year-old girl who had waited for a green light to pull out of a parking lot.

A 23-year-old runs the red light.

When I reached the scene, what was left of the young girl’s car was back in the bushes. She was alive and semi-alert. The problem was her car had been so badly smashed and driven into her body that it was hard to tell what was part of the car and what was part of her

body. She also died.

Once again imagine that young girl is your child, grandchild, wife or sister. Then also imagine, once again, someone who thinks we don’t need red light enforcement has indirectly caused that “accident.”

We live in or near communities having some of the worst roads and drivers in New York State.

Route 347 in Port Jefferson Station and Terryville has the highest accident rate of any similar road in the state. Route 25 in Smithtown has the highest fatality rate of any similar road in the state.

Why? In my opinion, it is the uncaring, unthinking, self-serving

persons like this, the “Red Light Robin hood.”

I think he should go to jail and then be forced to spend a minimum of a year cleaning up the most gruesome accident scenes available.

To paraphrase Bill Clinton, the issue isn’t money, stupid, it’s lives.

That’s just one man’s opinion.

Bare minimum TO ThE EDITOR: State Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) has done it again. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) has gotten a 67 percent increase in the minimum wage enacted without so much as a peep from Sen. Flanagan or his cohorts.

While prudent increases in the minimum wage certainly make sense, such an extreme increase has the potential to not only put many small businesses out of business, but also to hurt those it professes to help through higher costs and the elimination of many lower-skilled jobs. In fact, I have already begun to hear from clients of mine that they will be eliminating jobs in the future because of this unprecedented increase. In addition, I wonder

how many are asking if a part of the impetus behind this development is to help with a severely underfunded 1199 union pension fund?

I had contacted Sen. Flanagan’s office and been informed that he “shares my concerns.” I was also informed by him at a hauppauge Industrial Association event that a middle ground would be negotiated. Based upon my past experience with him, I was afraid of what this meant and it was proven to be true. From my experience, it is my opinion that he is a consummate politician who will do what is necessary to enhance his career and not necessarily what is good for his constituents. Sure enough, he went behind doors with Gov. Cuomo, as had his predecessor, who will be spending time in jail, and worked out a deal that has the potential

to do extreme harm to our local economy.

I was sorry to see in our local newspapers that in their outrage over this development, local leaders tried unsuccessfully to get state Assemblyman Mike Fitzpatrick (R-St. James) to run against Sen. Flanagan in the next primary. While I have not always agreed with all of his views, I have always had the highest respect for Assemblyman Fitzpatrick, because his actions are always guided by what he believes in and not what will enhance his political career. Perhaps if enough money could be raised to allow him to mount an effective challenge against Sen. Flanagan, he could be persuaded to change his mind? I certainly hope so.

Celebrating the medical team behind the college heroes

D. none of the above

y nephew will never be on a Wheaties box. He won’t be on the cover of Sports Illustrated, either, and he won’t be in a team picture that glows with the warmth of broad, confident smiles at the end of a championship season.

Nonetheless, he works just as hard and puts in just as

much time, dedicating himself to college sports at his Division I school as do many of the athletes whose natural talents and achievements thousands of students, alumni and fans applaud at arenas, fields and stadiums around the country.

My nephew is an emergency medical technician and is studying the field of kinesiology, which is the science of human movement. Someday he will either be a doctor, a trainer or some combination thereof where his knowledge of the way the body works will enable him to help athletes and nonathletes alike overcome injuries, stresses and strains or their own physical challenges.

He is a part of the team behind the team. He doesn’t lead chants and he doesn’t scream for the adoring fans to get out of their seats. He helps get athletes back on their feet again back in the stadium, and back to doing what they love when the inevitable battle of wills

brings two people into the same space at the same time.

Every morning he gets up some time around sunrise, as he slowly slinks out of his dorm room to the training center. There, he waits patiently, hoping his services aren’t necessary but ready, willing and able to help any of the injured athletes who need immediate medical attention.

He is like so many of the other medical and emergency response crews who close their eyes not knowing whether they’ll be able to rest for two minutes, two hours or 10 hours when they go to sleep.

He works with amateur athletes who might one day make an Olympic team, a professional team, set a school record in an athletic event or simply bring glory to his college for one magnificent day.

He dedicates himself, day after day, to his fellow students.

We recently visited him at his school, where he had a

rare day off because the team he’s helping didn’t need him that day. We twisted his arm to watch a softball game on an unusually cold afternoon.

The team played a doubleheader. My nephew saw his counterpart on the field during the first game of the doubleheader. The next day, he said he found out that his friend arrived two hours before the first game and didn’t leave until at least an hour after the second game ended, which means he spent about nine hours of a weekend day focused on supporting these athletes.

This is great training, building his professional endurance, giving him opportunities to see sports injuries — and helping him figure out where on the medical sports spectrum he’d like to dedicate himself. Still, I couldn’t help remembering some of the slow, lazy mornings in college, the hours tossing a baseball back and forth on a lawn,

My first workshop in the morning was a valuable one dealing with good organizational management. What’s that, you might ask? To me that means working in a corporate or nonprofit group of any kind, productively, happily and successfully. It means optimizing resources and achieving a group’s lofty goals in a way that is most satisfying both to members of the group and to its clientele. It also means innovating to embrace future change even while preserving the core of the business.

What has that to do with us at the newspapers? Stay with me and I will reveal a nice surprise.

In the past, in what we now call “the old industrial age,” the manner in which organizations ran was hierarchical, meaning from the top down in a vertical fashion. You’ve undoubtedly seen such graphics depicting the CEO at the top, followed below by the next row of managers, with further rows below them. Those workers in each row reported to the manager

immediately above them, with final decisions coming down from above. That was how the company managed its decisionmaking and workflow.

Today the model for better management has dramatically changed. Corporate flow charts have flattened and been transformed into more of a web than a ladder. The group chart is horizontal rather than vertical, perhaps influenced by the internet. Employees at all levels of a company or group are vested in the decision-making process, to the greater success and satisfaction of personnel making the product or performing the service and its quality for the end user.

That is optimal organizational management today, led

by Silicon Valley high technology companies in the larger corporate world, who took away titles, reserved parking places and physical partitions, and created the sense of equal participation and valued input that constantly push toward change while still maintaining the traditional business.

So now for the nice surprise.

We at Times Beacon Record News Media, celebrating our 40th anniversary this month, have always run the business as a web rather than a ladder.

Why? Because the people who have worked here, a great many of whom are still with us, have been respected for their talent and commitment and encouraged to offer their best ideas, concerns and input. We have been very lucky with the type of person who chooses to work with us, and we are most appreciative of our good fortune in that regard.

Now comes the best part.

While we have had many talented men working here, and we still do, we are nonetheless an organization with a majority of women. And I learned in business school, many years ago, that webs rather than ladders are instinctively more typical of women. Along with the networking concept go ideas like job sharing in order to combine work and also manage sick children, flexible hours, working at home and

Ready, willing and able to help any of the injured athletes. and the carefree joy of watching my school’s hockey team win a big game. My nephew, by choice, spends hours he could be studying or hanging out with buddies playing an important supportive role well behind the bench.

Athletes defy gravity, each other and their own limitations to become the kinds of heroes we celebrate each day.

At the same time, when those limitations catch up with them, they turn to people like my nephew and a deep bench of medical talent to bring them back to the games they love. My nephew may not be on the field but he, like so many others at these big schools with winning athletic programs, plays an important role off of it.

New management concepts in a new industrial age

aratoga Springs had snow on the ground when I arrived at dusk for the start of the New York Press Association convention a week ago Wednesday. Coming from Long Island, where daffodils are brightly nodding at passersby, forsythia are beacons of the coming spring and buds are finally on the tips of skeletal tree limbs, I had left the world of winter behind. So it was a bit of a shock to see how far we at home had advanced.

being innovative in order to do more in less time. The final products, which is what our work is about, have been stellar.

In the early years, when a couple of experienced older men had joined our sales team, they were deeply puzzled by our management style.

“Just tell us what you want us to do, and we’ll go out and do it,” they urged more than once at our ideas-generating meetings. They came from the old school in believing that dictatorship is the most efficient form of management, as I suppose it is.

By the time I left Saratoga Springs Sunday morning, the snow had disappeared. I could hear a bird singing through my open car window, and against the blue sky, I believe I caught sight of a few tiny buds on trees limbs. Sometimes it just takes a little extra time for different parts of the world to catch up.
