America’s VetDogs of Smithtown honored, at left center, U.S. Army Specialist Tyler McGibbon, and at right center, retired U.S. Marine Corps Major Chad Althiser for their service Aug 28.

Smithtown charity honors vets America’s VetDogs, a Smithtown-based charity that provides specially trained guide, service and hearing dogs to veterans with disabilities, honored two former servicemen at its 8th Annual VetDogs Golf Classic at Huntington Country Club Aug 28.

Retired U.S. Marine Corps Major Chad Althiser and U.S. Army Specialist Tyler McGibbon were this year’s guests of honor.

Althiser has retired after more than 20 years of service, with his deployments including Iraq twice, in 2003 and 2004 as an artillery officer, followed by a tour in Afghanistan in 2009. He said he first considered getting a behavioral dog as he felt disconnected from people.

McGibbon served as a U.S. Army cavalry

scout. During his first deployment to Kuwait he was injured when his Humvee rolled over, resulting in traumatic brain injuries and a fractured spine. He received his service dog in 2017 to help him with daily tasks made difficult due to the lasting impact of his injuries.

“I truly would not be able to live my life to the fullest or freely without my dog, my other best friend here today,” McGibbon said. “I thank America’s VetDogs for stepping up and saying, ‘We need to do more for our veterans today.’”

It costs more than $50,000 and two years to train, raise and match a service dog with a veteran, according to America’s VetDogs.

However, the charity provides all services at no cost to the veterans.

Village

Proposed Northport Inn moves forward

By Sara-Megan WalSh sara@tbrnewspapers.com Blueprints and floor plans can be drawn up for the proposed Northport Inn, which overcame its first legal hurdle last week.

Northport Village trustees voted 3 to 1 to approve a code modification that paves the way for the construction of hotels and/or inns within the village’s downtown business district. Mayor George Doll and Trustees Jerry Maline and Damon McMullen voted in favor, and the sole dissenting vote was cast by Deputy Mayor Henry Tobin.

The village code approved Aug. 22 sets basic guidelines to regulate any future construction of a hotel and/or inn including maximum height and required parking spaces.

“There’s a tremendous need for lodging in this area” said Kevin O’Neill, managing director of John W. Engeman Theater. “Long Island is one of the most underserved locations in the United States for lodging.”

O’Neill, along with his business partner Richard Dolce, the theater’s producing artistic director, first presented a proposal for a 24-room Northport Inn and restaurant to be built at 225 Main Street in May, feet away from the Engeman.

“With the entrepreneurial juices that we both have, we were trying to figure out different ways that we can hedge the risk of a show being successful or not to help keep us afloat,” O’Neill said. “The vision came into play where

an artistic rendering of what the proposed hotel and restaurant at 225 Main Street in northport Village may look like. we could create a restaurant that synergizes with the theater and an inn.”

The main inspiration for the proposal came from The American Hotel in Sag Harbor, according to O’Neill, in addition to several boutique lodgings that Dolce and O’Neill visited in Camden, Maine, last year. The partners said their goal is to bring first-class harborside lodging to the village along with a restaurant to serve meals and drinks to both overnight visitors and theatergoers.

“We have no intention of this becoming a glitzy Hampton-type thing,” O’Neill said. “We think it could be a charming harbor town like you have in Maine, but seven hours closer.”

Since the initial presentation in May, the main public criticism voiced by residents and the sole dissenting trustee, Tobin, has been what the potential impact the addition of the hotel and restaurant would have on the village’s parking and traffic congestion. Public comments were accepted by the village board

from May 16 to July 18.

“We’re already stressed for parking on Main Street,” Tobin said in an interview. “I support the hotel, I support the restaurant.

The question is what size restaurant will work within downtown Northport?”

The proposed plans as set forth call for a ground-level, 200-seat restaurant, according to O’Neill. Tobin said a parking and traffic study should have been conducted prior to the trustees’ vote to modify the village code to allow for the construction of the hotel/inn. “[A parking and traffic study] would give us guidance on how many seats a restaurant could have and yet have minimal parking and traffic problems,” Tobin said. “We could use a study to determine the balance between the economic needs of the hotel and the logistical needs of the village and its residents.”

O’Neill stressed that he and Dolce are “very conscious” of parking concerns in Northport, citing that the village currently has approximately 600 public parking spaces, largely at the west end of the business district. He said it is their plan to convert the existing two parking lots, of 12 spaces each, currently on the property into a total of 54 parking spots. This is more than the number required under the village code passed on Aug. 22, according to O’Neill.

“We have done tireless research and we are confident that the parking we are providing, along with our valet that we’ve provided

An electrical fire Aug. 22 caused Besito’s in Huntington to shutdown for two days.

Besito’s recovers after fire

By SArA-MeGAn WAlSH sara@tbrnewspapers.com A Huntington restaurant was forced to temporarily close after a fire sparked last week.

Besito’s, located on New York Avenue, announced via its Facebook page that it was closed after an electrical fire Aug. 22.

Scott Dodge, assistant chief of the Huntington Fire Department, said a call came in reporting a fire at approximately 3:30 p.m.

Two fire engines, two ladder trucks and approximately 20 volunteer firefighters rushed to the scene, according to Dodge.

“We had to rip open the ceiling to find where the fire was,” Dodge said.

It remains unclear what exactly caused the electrical fire, according to Dodge. He reported it took approximately one hour to bring it under control.

The immediate damage to Besito’s includes a hole ripped in the ceiling and water

for the last 10 years, that we will have a seamless process to handle this,” he said.

The John W. Engeman Theater currently offers a valet parking service for its attendees, managing to service and park vehicles for 390 patrons up to twice a day for weekend matinees and evening performances.

A secondary issue raised by Tobin and residents was a concern that the 200-seat restaurant could be used for catering large events, causing a large influx of vehicular traffic at a time. How-

The owners of Besito’s could not be reached for comment by the time of publication.

“They have a sign up in the restaurant over the hole we made thanking Huntington Fire Department for our quick response,” Dodge said. “It’s pretty nice.”

Besito’s was up and running by Aug. 25 when it had a scheduled a tequila tasting with Johnathan Goldsmith, better known as “The Most Interesting Man in the World” from Dos Equis beer commercials.

“A huge thank you to the Huntington Fire Department for their rapid response earlier this week, Eagle Electrical group, C. Best Refrigeration, PSEG Long Island, The Thompsons and our awesome Besito family for working so hard to get us reopened,” was posted to Besito’s Facebook page Aug. 25. “We are so lucky to be surrounded by such an amazing community of people.” ever, O’Neill said he and Dolce have no interest in providing catering service for weddings, bat mitzvahs or other special occasions.

O’Neill said he hopes to have blueprints and a site plan drawn up for the proposed Northport Inn by Nov. 1 to present to the village, with the hopes of beginning construction in early spring 2018.

“We are taking a building that’s a blight upon the community and turning it into a landmark,” O’Neill said.

Both O’Neill and Dolce said they welcome any village residents with questions or concerns about their proposal to contact them directly for further discussion.

Village ‘Scott believed in the awesome power of public service. We hope to keep his legacy alive by giving future leaders the same chance Scott had in pursuing a college education.’

— Stacy and Stephen Martella

Martella family launches scholarship

By Sara-Megan WalSh sara@tbrnewspapers.com A Smithtown family is hoping to honor the life of their son by providing others with an educational opportunity to follow in his footsteps.

Stacy and Stephen Martella announced the creation of the Scott Martella Memorial Scholarship Fund in partnership with The United Way of Long Island in memory of their son, who was killed a year ago.

Scott Martella, a Smithtown native and Northport resident, died in a three-car crash on the Long Island Expressway Aug. 21, 2016.

“Scott believed in the awesome power of public service,” his parents said in a statement. “We hope to keep his legacy alive by giving future leaders the same chance Scott had in pursuing a college education.”

The memorial fund aims to provide scholarships to lowincome students who will be attending college and whose studies may include international or public relations.

In conjunction with the scholarship fund, Smithtown Central School District announced it will be creating a series of service learning projects for students that will run from October 2017 to May 2018. This will be done in partnership with the United Veterans Beacon House, a nonprofit partner agency of United Way, to work together on a host of activities such as painting, planting a garden, landscaping and more.

Scott Martella, who was 29 when he died, is widely remembered for his career in public service and his involvement in New York State government and politics. Martella got started when, at age 22, he became the youngest board of education member elected in Smithtown school district’s history in 2009.

From 2011 to 2015, Martella served as Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) Suffolk County representative before being promoted to Long Island regional representative. In June 2015, he started working as the director of communications for Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D).

“Scott was clearly one of the most engaging people that I’ve come across in government,” Bellone said in an interview. “Beyond the fact that he was smart, talented and hardworking, he had that something extra special that he was able to make that connection with people.”

In addition to the scholarship fund, Martella’s parents and Bellone hosted a Back-to-School Drive this month to provide supplies for underprivileged students. They said their goal was to prepare 5,000 backpacks for homeless or at-risk children.

“One of the last major events [Scott] did before he died was put together this Back-to-School Drive with Long Island Coalition for the Homeless,” Bellone said. “It’s obviously sad to think that he’s gone, but this was also a way to carry on his legacy of public service, a very appropriate way to carry on his legacy of public service.”

Donations to The Scott Martella Memorial Scholarship Fund can be made online at www.scottmartella.com or www. unitedwayli.org/ScottMartellaMemorialScholarshipFund.

All donations made by check should be written out to include The Scott Martella Memorial Scholarship Fund on the envelope as well as the memo section. Checks should be made payable to United Way of Long Island, 819 Grand Blvd., Deer Park, NY 11729.

Summer sewing fun

Before the start of the new school year, 16 incoming K-5 students in the Harborfields Central School District took part in the Stuffed Creature Workshop, the final camp session of Harborfields Alumni and Community Educational Foundation Summer Camp Program from Aug. 21 to 24.

Led by Keri Puglisi from EmmaLoops Craft Studio, students gathered at the high school to explore hand sewing techniques and create their own stuffed animals, pillows and creatures. The four-day camp consisted of learning how to cut, pin and hand sew their custom designs while adding different embellishments like buttons and beads. With the help of two incoming seventh-graders and two 11th-grad-

ers, each student had the opportunity to create as many stuffed objects as they wanted, while making friendships along the way.

“I like sewing little animals and things,” said incoming fourth-grader Lia Calderone. “I haven’t sewed in a while so I’m now remembering how to do it again.”

This was the first year that HACEF invited Puglisi into the summer program as a way to enhance the program with two new creative sessions for students to enjoy. In addition to the Stuffed Creature Workshop, Puglisi taught a four-day knitting camp at the end of July.

“Keri’s ability to teach sewing and knitting skills to a wide age range of children is unusual,” said HACEF camp co-director Emma Hendler. “She is a great addition to the HACEF summer camp program.”

2017 grad saves life

Each summer, thousands of people visit the Dix Hills Pool and town beaches for a respite from the summer heat. However, while our swimmers and beachgoers enjoy themselves, it’s important that we have well-trained and experienced lifeguards on staff in case of emergencies.

On July 21, Falyn Dwyer, a lifeguard stationed at Fleets Cove Beach in Huntington was notified about a swimmer in distress and immediately sprang into action.

Once she brought the swimmer to shore, Falyn’s life-saving skills were put to task.

She was able to successfully resuscitate the swimmer and then called for Emergency Medical Service assistance. The swimmer was transported to Huntington Hospital and made a full recovery.

“The Town of Huntington prides itself on providing our lifeguards and support staff with vital lifesaving training and skills to better prepare themselves in the event of an emergency,” said Councilman Mark Cuthbertson (D).

“Thanks to Falyn Dwyer’s quick thinking actions, she was instrumental in saving a life, averting what could have been

Dwyer recently graduated from Harborfields High school where she excelled as a scholar athlete. She will be attending Fordham University this fall.

Classic cars shine for a cause

By Sara-Megan WalSh Sara@tBrneWSpaperS.coM Huntington and Northport residents could cruise into a different era at the Hecksher Park ball fields in their choice of classic cars Aug. 27.

The Northport Centerport Lions Club hosted the 54th annual Robert J. Bohaty Memorial Lions Classic Auto Show featuring doz-

ens of classic cruisers dating back to the 1930s. This year’s show was dedicated to the Lions’ past district governor Howard Wilson and past president Clinton Strait.

Attendees had the opportunity to look, but not touch, Ford Roadsters, Chevy Coupes, a Chevelle SS Convertible, Ford Thunderbirds and even a Crown Victoria that previously served as a police squad car.

Proceeds from the show provide monetary support to the Cleary School for the Deaf in Nesconset, Guide Dog Foundation for the Blind in Smithtown, and the Lions Eye Bank for Long Island, a part of Northwell Health.

Donated funds are also used to support local Boy Scouts, food pantries, Little League teams and aid victims of natural disasters.

Blue Devils girls return to field for new season The Huntington girls soccer team kicked off the season with a pair practices last week.

Similar to past seasons, Huntington has some holes to fill after losing several top players to graduation. A strong nucleus is returning to the field for coaches John Walsh and Vincent Tannazzo.

Veteran varsity players Christina Aureliano, Megan Bacik, Grace Connell, Hailey Gallagher, Alexandra Lourenso, Nicole Muszynski, Cathryn Ricciardelli, Katie Seccafico, Alyssa Sorensen, Marissa Stafford and Amber Stieve are all back for the Blue Devils. So is senior Nicole Abbondandelo, who sat out last year while rehabbing from surgery following an injury.

There will be some new faces in the Blue Devil varsity lineup. One of the promoted players is Ainsley Lumpe, who is expected to be the team’s starting goalie after a string of thrilling performances as an eighth-grader on last year’s junior varsity squad.

“I’m very excited for the season to start and think we are going to be a strong team this year,” said Stieve, who will help anchor the defense. Huntington struggled last fall, compiling a 4-9-2 mark. One of the victories came over defending county champion West Islip. But a new season has brought with it high hopes for success.

“It will be great to have Nicole Abbon-

dandelo back this year,” said Stafford, who is expected to start at midfield and be one of the team’s top contributors. Abbondandelo is a track star and the speedy teen who was a defensive specialist for the Blue Devils during her first two years on the varsity.

Ricciardelli, Seccafico, Aureliano and Connell will also be counted on by Walsh and Tannazzo to help pace the team this fall.

The coaches are determined to have a more productive offense than the Blue Devils have been able to muster in recent campaigns.

“I’m very excited for the season and feel we will be very determined to make it far in playoffs and have a good record,” Seccafico said.

Last year’s Huntington junior varsity team finished the season with a 7-7-2 record. Several of Lumpe’s teammates from that squad will be joining her on the varsity team. Walsh will use the next week to make roster decisions while players are conditioning and working on skills.

Huntington travels to Bay Shore for a scrimmage Aug. 30. The first game of the season is set for 4 p.m. Sept. 6 at home against Half Hollow Hills East. Home and away league games are scheduled with Hills East, Newfield, Smithtown West, Centereach, Copiague and Smithtown East.

Huntington’s Tyler Gerbavsits completes summer of golf

tyler gerbavsits

File photo by Mike connell

Tyler Gerbavsits has been paying his dues this summer. The Huntington senior has been playing as much golf as he can as he gets ready for his final season with the Blue Devils.

One of the top young golfers in the state, Gerbavsits has played countless practice rounds on driving ranges and putting greens, and played in a long list of tournaments.

Gerbavsits continues to improve his game.

He participated in the Carter Cup, the invitational Metropolitan Golf Association’s junior stroke play championship. It features the best young players in the region and is played on Baltusrol Golf Club’s famed course in Springfield Township, New Jersey.

Gerbavsits shot a seven over par 78 to tie for 16th place in a field of 44 golfers. Weather limited play to just 18 holes instead of the traditional 36 holes.

“Playing at Baltusrol in the Carter Cup was a real privilege,” Gerbavsits said. “The facilities

and the golf course conditions are amazing.”

Gerbavsits was one of four golfers to be selected for the MGA’s team that competed in the Williamson Cup, a junior event which pits 10 northeast golf associations against each other in a 36-hole stroke play format, according to the MGA’s website. Four juniors represent each team and the best three scores from each round count toward each team’s overall score.

“Being chosen for the Williamson Cup this year was a huge honor and an experience I will never forget,” Gerbavsits said. “The tournament was at the Pittsburgh Field Club and our team finished third. It was a great golf course; tough greens. I definitely left a few strokes out there, but overall I was happy with how I hit the ball and my contribution to our MGA team.”

The junior level competition between golf associations played out over 36 holes, with three of a team’s four members counting toward the overall score. Gerbavsits turned in

rounds of 77 and 77 to help team MGA finished third in the standings.

“The highlight of my summer was finishing sixth at four-over par at the LIGA Michael Hebron Amateur Championship at Bethpage Black,” Gerbavsits said. After a 76 (+5) on the first day, he shot 70 (-1) on day two, tying the low round of the day. “It was an unbelievable day where everything was working.

Playing the Black takes tremendous focus and concentration. It’s a privilege to play where many PGA tournaments have taken place and to come in with a round under par is the best feeling ever.”

He finished sixth in a field of 128.

Gerbavsits has a full academic schedule and will be engaged in a credit-bearing internship with athletic director Georgia McCarthy this fall. He will spend one period each day working on projects in the office.

Boater safety tips ahead of Labor Day weekend

By HerB Herman It’s Labor Day weekend and a great time to go boating. You get the family in the car and go to the marina. Being a responsible boater, first you check the weather forecast and make sure that you won’t face any surprises out on the water. You or someone else will remember the sandwiches and drinks. You get to the boat and go through the required check-off items: examine the fuel level; check oil; see that the personal flotation devices are in the right place — at least one per person and easily accessible in an emergency — check if the anchor is set up for easy deployment; that flares and other emergency items in order; that the hand-held VHF radio is charged and readily available.

Being a responsible boater, the final thing to do before you cast off is to inform the passengers and crew as to where the emergency items are and how to use and wear them. And if you are a diligent boater, you file a float plan with friends, so that in the eventuality that you aren’t where you’re supposed to be in the coming days, they can inform the Coast Guard of a potential problem.

All of the above seems like a lot of hard work to go out for a day trip to the local anchorage.

But with some experience, and perhaps after some nasty events, you will tend to do these things automatically — better yet, have an actual check-off list so you forget nothing. Then you’ll have a beautiful day to go boating.

Coast Guard teaches, rather preaches, to their boat crews and to the Coast Guard Auxiliary situational awareness. That is, what’s going on around you. In the parlance of the local guru, mindfulness — the state of knowing the environment in which your boat plows ahead.

File photo

These include water state, weather now and what’s to come, wind, other boats and buoys and all the impediments that exist on local waters. There should also be a designated lookout in case someone falls overboard.

Above all, know the rules of the road. This includes what to do when boats approach one another. These regulations, also known as colregs, are devised to avoid collisions at sea.

The main elements should be learned by way of courses given on Nautical charts, which are available for the waters in which you wish to sail. The chart, unlike a land road map, gives you broad swaths of safe passages and also tells you which regions to avoid due to shallow depths and rocks.

If you’re a power boater or a sailor with an accessory motor, you should know about the innards of the beast. Have you enough fuel for your planned voyage? Will you check the oil dipstick, or do you assume marina personnel

do it for you? They won’t unless you ask them to. Are all your oil, water, fuel and water filters clean, and can you change out a clogged filter?

Are water cooling sea cocks open? Can you troubleshoot easy problems? Do you have the essential tools for such work? Most aspects of inboard and outboard motors can be handled by a layman with a little study. A quick course on troubleshooting your power plant by the marina mechanic can also pay off.

Paddle craft safety is of growing concern to the Coast Guard, with some 22 million Americans enjoying the sport. According to industry figures, some 100,000 canoes, 350,000 kayaks and a very large number of stand-up paddleboard are sold annually. A tragic consequence of these large numbers is that as of 2015, 29 percent of boating deaths were related to paddle crafts. In response, the USCG has generated a Paddle Craft Vessel Safety Check, which is administered by a USCG-approved vessel

Items to check for as you head out to sea •Personal Flotation Devices — at least one per person on board •First Aid Kit and blanket •Very high frequency radio •Flashlight •Operational navigational lights •Depth sounder, lead line, sounding pole •Bilge pump or other de-watering device, portable pump •Serviceable and sufficient number of fire extinguishers — should be tested occasionally •Watch or clock •Visual distress signal •Sound-producing device •Compass •Chart for operating area •Deviation tables •Navigational tools •Binoculars •Tide tables •Adequate fenders •Anchor and anchor line (rode) •Boat hook •Cleats in order — sufficient strength — through hulls •Tools for emergency repairs examiner, such as Coast Guard Auxiliary personnel. Paddle crafters should wear personal flotation devices and have a sound-producing device, like a whistle, on them at all times.

Herb Herman is a member of the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary, 1st Southern District, Division 22, Flotilla 06, Port Jefferson.

Letters to the editor

Fire departments: Donate to Harvey victims Dear Friends and Neighbors, By now we’ve all heard about the devastation that Hurricane Harvey has brought to Texas and the surrounding areas. Not so long ago, we were the ones in need of assistance in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy; lets pay it forward. Community member George Schwertl has rented trucks to be driven to Texas, and we are asking for your help in filling them. Please bring donations from the list below to the Halesite

Assemblyman Steve Englebright suggested an outside-the-box fix to the problem of what to do about dredged spoils during an Aug. 28 press conference.

Planning LI’s future It is a poorly kept secret that the condition of Long Island’s waterways is worsening. Elected officials from town, county, state and federal levels of government have all made improving the ecosystem of the Long Island Sound and other local water bodies a top priority in both their policies and public rhetoric.

We were glad to hear the announcement made by Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R), along with council members Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) and Valerie Cartright (D-Port Jefferson Station), during an Aug. 28 press conference. The town intends to support a lawsuit filed earlier in August by New York State officials against the United States Environmental Protection Agency regarding a dumping plan slated to drop dredged spoils from Connecticut waterways in the Sound for the next 30 years. Some of the spoils could be contaminated with polluted materials, according to some environmental experts.

Standing up to oppose a plan set forth by the federal government because of its hazardous potential impact on the local environment is a great start, but we understand something needs to be done with the millions of cubic feet of dredged sludge.

To that end, we were extremely intrigued to hear a suggestion made by state Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) during the press conference, which is even more topical today with severe flooding devastating Houston. Englebright told a story of a 1953 storm in the Netherlands that resulted in a catastrophic flood and killed thousands of people. In response to the disaster, the country formed the Delta Committee, which was tasked with coming up with solutions to prevent anything like the 1953 flood from happening again.

An element of the response, albeit a lengthy and expensive process, was to use in part dredged materials to create a barrier to protect the coastline.

A solution like this to Long Island’s problem of what to do with dredged materials in lieu of further harming the Sound would run in perfect lockstep with a mantra frequently heard from Romaine, a longtime advocate of environmental responsibility: “Reduce, Recycle, Reuse.” It would also provide increased protection from flooding, as experienced during Hurricane Sandy, and aid in strengthening the coastline from the effects of erosion and sea level rising amid the inevitable effects of climate change.

Outside-the-box thinking from political leaders is going to be a requirement over the coming decades if Long Island is to continue to be livable.

If the health of the Long Island Sound can be improved in the process, we can’t think of a reason why a solution like this shouldn’t be explored.

More scared by anti-Semitism close to home I was nonplussed by your article, “Huntington rallies to support unity, racist graffiti found on fence” Aug. 17.

On May 3, 2012, a civil rights case was filed not only against the Northport-East Northport School District but also against Dr. Marylou McDermott, the superintendent of schools, and Irene McLaughlin, the high school principal.

It was a case of blatant antiSemitism. A youngster was called “Jew boy.” He was ordered to get down on his hands and knees, and pick up coins thrown at him. The Holocaust was denied. He was picked up physically and turned

upside down. It is a heartache for me to read something like this.

Ms. McLaughlin told the youngster that the goons tormenting him had problems at home.

At that time the school had a copy of The New York State Dignity for All Students Act. The law had already been passed but did not become effective until July 1, 2012.

My father sent his retirement money to Germany to save Jews from the gas chambers. Those who came to stay with us stated that this is how the Holocaust started with incidents just like the ones I described.

The end result of this lawsuit is so disturbing that it is beyond my comprehension. The high school principal, Irene McLaughlin, was promoted to a job with more money and more authority.

The current high school Principal Daniel Danbusky was quoted in a local paper as saying, “I’ve learned so much from her that I don’t think I can work for another principal because I’ve just been a sponge under Irene” Nov. 26, 2015.

This response is so scary, very unnerving; it boggles my mind.

Like most Americans, we watched the events in Charlottesville with sadness and dismay.

We were deeply disturbed by the violence and death perpetrated by the hatemongers who showed up on the University of Virginia campus with malevolent intent. It was concerning to learn that one of the rally organizers was Chris Cantwell, a self-described white nationalist and former resident of the Three Village area.

As public servants elected to represent northern Brookhaven,

we find it crucial to reinforce the values that bind together the neighborhoods we represent. We are proud to be a community that embraces diversity, breadth of knowledge, research and culture.

We unequivocally denounce the hatred espoused by supremacists and separatists. With one voice we emphasize that the Three Village area we know and love welcomes and embraces all people of goodwill. Every day we experience this community’s shared values of acceptance and equality united

against hate and bigotry.

A commentary on moral decay Never since the dawn of civilization has morality and civil structure eroded to the status of a common denominator. One only has to witness our human decline. No other negative force could impose this social malignancy that is now being placed upon us. Look all about us and witness the moral decay that has grown within our nation.

Sexual conflict now clouds

the minds of humanity changing the laws of deity. Medical body alteration now has choice that is pleasing to social desire. Sex utilities such as public bathrooms are now required. Our culture in language is changing to a neutered nonstatus identity altering Merriam-Webster Dictionary to a state of confusion.

There is now indoctrination by college professors teaching

liberal bias with their students that is causing insurrection on college grounds. This is referred to as freedom of expression.

If we are to survive as a nation, we must once again return to a society of balance and sanity.

God bless America.

OpiniOn Making science work for you

I

’m not a scientist and I don’t play one on TV. Nonetheless, I think science is undervalued in America. I believe the typical American takes science for granted, thinks science owes them something and figures they’ll never understand what scientists are saying.

Wrong, wrong and wrong.

For starters, science isn’t just about trying to create the best iPhone, the highest quality and thinnest televisions, or medicines that act like magic bullets, destroying evil our cells or

By Daniel Dunaief in our DNA without damaging the healthy ones.

Science often starts with a question.

Why or how does something work?

And, perhaps, if we change something about the way it works, does it get bet-

D. None of the above

ter or worse? The conclusions scientists draw when they solve one puzzle leads to the next set of questions.

It’s as if a child asks his parent if he can go west and the parent says, “No, don’t go west, but here are the keys to the car.”

The answer may seem like a non sequitur, but it’s also a way to navigate somewhere new, even if, for whatever reason, the car isn’t supposed to go west. Maybe, by learning more about the car and where it can go, the child also learns what’s so forbidding about going west, too.

We want science to succeed and we’re annoyed when science doesn’t solve our problems. We can’t get something to work or we can’t get ourselves to work and we blame scientists. After all, if we can send a man to the moon, why can’t we conquer the morning rush hour or the common cold?

Then again, how does the study of dark matter — neutrinos or sphingolipids — affect our morning commute?

We may not understand these areas, but that doesn’t mean basic knowl-

edge can’t or won’t lead to advances we can’t anticipate.

Knowledge, as we know, is power. If we know, for example, that an enemy is planning an attack and we know where and how that attack will occur, we can defend ourselves, even if that enemy exists at a subcellular level.

Learning the playbook of the enemy takes time, which technological innovation, dedicated researchers and people battling against a disease often don’t have.

Worst of all, though, science is somehow too hard to understand. That is a defeatist conclusion. Yes, scientists use technical terms as shorthand and, yes, they may not be selling ideas or themselves in the kind of carefully crafted tones often reserved for CEOs or politicians.

That, however, doesn’t mean they are planting a keep-out sign in front of them or their ideas. While scientists reduce a question to an attainable goal, they also often keep a larger goal in mind.

A few years ago, my daughter had to draw a picture of what she thought

a scientist looked like. Rather than imagine a person in a white lab coat with one pocket full of pens and the other holding a radiation badge, she drew a baby.

Science may be frustrating because scientists often come across as uncertain. For example, they might say, “We believe that the shadow in our telescope may be caused by an exoplanet orbiting a star that’s outside the solar system, and which is the same distance from its nearest star as Earth is from the sun.”

Scientists can be wrong, just as anyone can be wrong in their job, in their opinions or in their conclusions. That, however, doesn’t make science wrong.

Scientists are often most excited when a discovery they make defies their expectations or bucks conventional wisdom.

Just because conventional scientific wisdom changes doesn’t mean every part of it is wrong.

Science doesn’t have all the answers and it never will. The most likely person to tell you that, though, should be a scientist, not a journalist.

Hope after the horrors of Hurricane Harvey

W

ouldn’t it be wonderful if the enormous energy of Hurricane Harvey, a Category 4 storm for a time, could be harnessed to serve later in some practical way, perhaps to light the city of Chicago during one of winter’s darkest weeks?

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the unending rainfall brought

by Harvey, in some places in Texas more than 50 inches already, could be captured, stored and brought to areas that are arid and desperate for water?

By Leah S. Dunaief Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the disastrous effects and ruination caused by Harvey could somehow bring Americans back together, red states and blue states, conservatives and liberals, Republicans and Democrats, forgetting their anger and moving compassionately together to help the tragic victims

Between you and me

of our fourth largest city?

Wait, I think destructive Harvey has done just that.

Am I imagining, or did I hear one of our more bellicose representatives, from Long Island no less, promise to bury the hatchet and vote aid for the state of his longtime adversary, despite not having received such aid in our time of terrible need? And wasn’t he bragging about his empathy?

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the unprecedented flooding caused by Harvey could incredibly make the prospect of nuclear war with Kim Jong-un secondary at the top of the news hour, beneath the fold on the front page of the daily newspaper and in the public consciousness?

Yes, it happened like that. Even President Trump disappeared from the news for a time. Harvey it seems, terrible as it is, can do strange things.

But the cost, in human agony, is catastrophic. Millions of people throughout the Gulf Coast have had their lives smashed, and that certainly is the main story for America this week. We have been glued to the television, watching the families with little more than the

clothes on their backs, wading through the waist-high water to meet a rescuer in a rowboat, their homes behind them flooded to the windowsills. Where will they sleep? What will they eat? Will they have enough water? Did they remember to bring their medicines? Are their other loved ones somewhere safe?

So far, the number of wounded and dead has been low, certainly compared to the horrors of Katrina. But there are all sorts of wounds. Most of the people we see on the screen seem remarkably calm but are most likely in shock, trying to make sense of how their lives have violently changed. For some, their houses are totally gone, smashed and washed away in the floodwaters. For others, their homes will have to be razed to the ground because of mold and rebuilt — if there is money to do so. Unlike with Katrina, where some 50 percent of the homes were insured, it seems only around 20 percent in the Houston area have flood insurance.

Businesses, restaurants, automobiles, jobs, whole neighborhoods are gone.

off. But most residents are “lucky”: They have escaped with their lives, their children in their arms.

The victims of Harvey have been grievously wounded. Our entire nation has been wounded.

We have, for now, lost a wide swath of the South, the ordinary, productive lives of the people who lived there and the many resources they gave us, from rice to oil and gas. After concerns for food and shelter are met for those rescued, there is the real threat of infectious disease, pollution and even the possibility of crime. And how will the affected states dispose of all the garbage Harvey will have left in its wake?

In some ways the rescue operation is a mini-Dunkirk. Good Samaritans, using all sorts of recreational vehicles, pickup trucks, fishing boats, motorized rubber dinghies and even Jet Skis, have rushed to help people trapped on roofs, in attics and in trees. The giant volunteer rescue effort, alongside official disaster responders, is a testament to the courage and basic decency of people throughout the country.

No one was asked whom he or she voted for. America, there is hope.
