Residents will not rest

Teen stays positive despite rare condition By Giselle Barkley

eli Mollineaux smiles after receiving a proclamation from the town for his positive attitude and high spirit.

Rain or shine, teenager Eli Mollineaux always has a smile on his face — even as he battles a rare mitochondrial disease known as Pearson marrowpancreas syndrome. Last week, Suffolk County honored Eli for his sunny disposition despite his condition, with a proclamation. Now, the month of September is Mitochondrial Awareness month, and Suffolk County officials went a step further, calling the proclamation “Eli’s Law” in light of the Huntington native’s 14th birthday on Oct. 3. Eli’s birthday is yet another milestone for him, his family and their friends. “The lifespan for kids with Pearson’s is around 3 to 4 years old,” said Alyssa Mancuso, a

family friend of 10 years. “So the fact that Eli’s turning 14 is huge.” Children with the incurable Pearson marrow-pancreas syndrome have problems producing certain cells in their bone marrow that develop into different types of blood cells. Those problems stem from defects in the cells’ mitochondria. According to Eli’s mother, Ellen Mollineaux, the “mitochondria is [the] battery for cells and [Eli] is missing a big part of that battery.” Mollineaux remembers her son’s condition developing when he was a infant, as he was often sick and didn’t act like a typical child. “Cognitively, I knew he was there, but all of a sudden he was sleeping more and wasn’t playful,” Mollineaux said. “[He] always wanted to be held and Eli continued on page a5

Resident opposition halts state’s LIE rest stop plans By Victoria Espinoza

Local politicians and Huntington Town residents have successfully lobbied the state Department of Transportation to halt construction of a rest stop on exit 51 of the Long Island Expressway. Individuals were up in arms over the proposal, and lawmakers expressed their dissatisfaction about the plans. Suffolk County Legislator Steve Stern (D-Dix Hills) said it’s an unacceptable location for a rest stop and said the rest stop itself is unnecessary. “It backs a residential area,” Stern said in a phone interview. “Unlike other rest stops or centers, where they carry on commercial activity, on the LIE, here all the exits are about a mile apart. There is an ample supply of restaurants, shopping centers and restrooms at every exit, so there is no need for a separate rest stop at this location.” Stern said the plan calls for featuring the state’s Taste NY program, designed to promote New York’s agriculture vendors. This particular Taste NY would serve as a gateway for Long Island wine country out east, according to Stern. “This exit is a long way from being a gateway to the East End,” Stern said about why this exit choice doesn’t make sense to promote Taste NY.

According to Stern, Suffolk County has made an offer to work with New York State to create a Taste NY location off exit 67 in Yaphank, which Stern said is a more appropriate location. Gary Holmes, director of communications for the state’s Department of Transportation, said no work is currently being done at exit 51. “The commissioner has held several productive meetings with local and state officials on Long Island, and while no decisions have been made about the rest stop at exit 51, we look forward to continued conversations about the health and safety of all users of the LIE,” Holmes said in an email. “LIE motorists deserve a safe place to rest and we’ll keep working on the best way to do that.” Town Councilwoman Susan Berland (D) said the rest stop should not be added, and that she started fighting plans for it 15 years ago. “I led the charge against this rest stop when I was vice president of the House Beautiful Dix Hills Civic Association,” Berland said in a phone interview. “I have always been opposed to this.” She also said the Taste NY aspect is inappropriate, and that the state should not be selling alcohol on an expressway: “The last thing you want to do is give people the opportunity to get alcohol there.”

Berland said the rest stop is too close to a residential community, and the construction the state’s done so far was done without permission. She said residents are already being impacted by the sound of the LIE because brush berms have been removed. Assemblyman Chad A. Lupinacci (RHuntington Station) agreed that the rest stop is disruptive to residential life near exit 51. “The location is poor because of the noise and the secondary effects it will have

to the area and the residents,” Lupinacci said in a phone interview. “I am totally against it.” Suffolk County Legislator William “Doc” Spencer (D-Centerport) agreed with his colleagues that the rest stop should not go up, and that the voices of Huntington are not being heard. “It doesn’t sound like the Town of Huntington was involved in this decision,” Spencer said in a phone interview. “I always think coordination and communication with the community is key.”

‘Nightmares’ fulfills fan dreams

Photos by Victoria Espinoza

Clockwise from left, actor Jason Segel poses with a fan; signs a fan’s cast; and shows off his new book, ‘Nightmares! The Sleepwalker Tonic,’ at Book Revue on Oct. 6. By ViCTORia ESpiNOza

Jason Segel, an actor known for roles in comedies such as “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” “How I Met Your Mother” and “I Love You, Man,” attended a book signing at Book Revue in Huntington on Tuesday to promote his new book, “Nightmares! The Sleepwalker Tonic,” the second installment of a trilogy.

Segel also participated in an audience question-and-answer session, where he discussed if the book series might ever be made into a movie and if the characters are based on any real people in Segel’s life. Segel said he started out writing the book series as a script when he was on the television show “Freaks and Geeks,” so some of the nightmare characters were meant to be played by his friends

on the show. One boy asked if Segel remembered any of the nightmares he had as child. “Yeah,” Segel said. “My big recurring nightmare, that was in the first book, was witches eating my toes. People asked me, ‘Where does that came from?’ and I figured out it’s because when you’re a baby, parents stand over you and tell you they’re going to eat your toes.”

Crab Meadow Golf Course celebrates the big 5-0 Town to offer reduced golfing fees later this month By ViCtoria ESPinoza

The Crab Meadow Golf Course is celebrating its 50th anniversary this month. The town-owned golf course in Northport hosts between 42,000 and 45,000 rounds annually, according to Don McKay, director of parks and recreation for Huntington Town. “The playing conditions here are outstanding,” McKay said in a phone interview. “There is a very dedicated staff and I think one of the best features of this course is that you have a view of the Long Island Sound from 16 of the 18 holes on the golf course. The views are stupendous.” McKay has been researching the history of the golf course since its beginnings in the 1920s. Originally, Crab Meadow Golf Course was part of the Northport Country Club, which was established in the 1920s. McKay believes that worldrenowned golf architect Devereux Emmet designed the original course in 1921, and that the membership then was approximately 125 people. The Northport Country Club was abandoned in the 1940s, according to McKay, and he speculates it had to do with the Great Depression. Then in the 1960s, with Huntington Town Supervisor Robert J. Flynn, the Crab Meadow Golf Course began to develop.

“I say it all the time, if it weren’t for Flynn, we would never have the golf course today, along with many other municipal parks in Huntington,” McKay said. “His vision for Huntington was extraordinary.” McKay said that in 1961, a $2.5 million bond was put up to vote to Huntington residents to fund a townwide park program. Included in that plan was use of the Crab Meadow property to create a new golf course. The referendum failed, but Flynn did not give up. He got more groups to back his plan, including the Huntington Township Chamber of Commerce, and was able to get the bond approved the following year in 1962. Robert J. Flynn Jr. said his father’s greatest pride was knowing how many people enjoyed the town parks and Crab Meadow Golf Course. “He believed in the importance of recreation,” Flynn said. “His vision was to establish a municipal park program that would last for decades to come.” According to McKay, once the town made the purchase of the land, the municipality began to restore the course and alter the layout a bit. William F. Mitchell designed the current course, which officially opened in 1965. It’s an 18-hole course that is 6,574 yards by 5,658 yards and open to the public. There are social clubs at the course, including clubs for men, women and seniors, that anyone is welcome to

join. “The club members are the MVPs of the course,” McKay said. There is also a restaurant, concession stand, locker rooms and a pro golf store. Maureen Lieb worked at the golf course at its inception in the 1960s. She started working for the town in 1964, immediately after she graduated from Suffolk County Community College. “When the golf course was opening, they asked if I would want to work there,” Lieb said in a phone interview. “It was between being a meter maid or working on the golf course. There wasn’t any question.” She started as a cashier and eventually became the manager. Lieb said she worked out of a trailer

when she first started working for the golf course, because it took another year after the course was opened for the club to be built. “I always loved my job,” Lieb said. “I was very lucky. I enjoyed the residents the most that came to golf. They were so nice and I’ve actually kept in touch with some I met when I first started working there.” She retired in December 1993. The Huntington Town Board authorized a special one-day reduced tournament green fee of $25 at the course on Oct. 21, as part of the 50th anniversary celebration. The day will also feature reduced fees for golf carts, driving range and food.

Mollineaux said. “If the doctor asks him … ‘How you doing?’ — Even though he can’t walk [properly, he says,] ‘Great. Everything’s good.’” During an interview with media, Eli’s older brother, Josh, also commented on his brother’s sunny disposition. He said his brother is a happy kid who is indifferent to his illness. The only thing Eli doesn’t like is having his blood drawn. Regardless of his hardships, thinking about school and seeing his friends is what keeps Eli’s spirit up. During an interview, he said art was his favorite subject at school. Legislator William “Doc” Spencer (DCenterport), who was present at the press conference where Eli received his proclamation, said “Eli’s Law” will honor Eli’s courage, while bringing awareness to his condition. Spencer said Eli is inspiring, and gives hope to those who are battling their own adversities. Although his current prognosis is not very good, Ellen Mollineaux said her family clings to their motto. “Nobody knows their future,” she said. “That’s like our motto. No one knows what’s going to happen tomorrow. Horrible things happen every day and we just move on.”

hugged and I knew something was wrong.” After taking Eli to his pediatrician, a blood test revealed his hemoglobin level was around 1.9 grams per deciliter, while the average 6-month-old to 2-yearold child’s level should be around 12 — which meant his body was running out of blood. Mollineaux said doctors rushed Eli to North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset for a blood transfusion. “It was as if they filled his tank up with gas,” Mollineaux said. “He sat up and within minutes all the skills he didn’t have, he had.” Eli received the transfusion in September 2002. He did well for a few years, but his disorder has progressed in the last several months. According to his mother, his tremors are getting worse, making it difficult for him to eat — especially his favorite food, soup. Walking is also more difficult. Despite this, Eli remains positive. “He will lose his balance when he tries to walk and he doesn’t say, ‘It sucks,’” Photo by Giselle Barkley

Huntington Bay unfazed by fiscal stress rating Mayor blasts state comptroller’s scoring of village By Victoria Espinoza

Huntington Bay Village’s mayor strongly disagrees with a recent release by the New York State Comptroller’s office ranking the municipality as susceptible to fiscal stress. The comptroller’s office sent out a statement about the scores last week but Herb Morrow said the score is misleading and Huntington Bay is in sound fiscal shape. “The report is worthless because what they do is take a snapshot of one point in the year,” Morrow said in a phone interview. “They don’t take the financial planning into consideration.” Morrow said the comptroller’s office ranked Huntington Bay as “susceptible” to fiscal stress in February because its reserve fund decreased. “We did some major reconstruction of the police department to save taxpayers an enormous amount of money in the long term,” Morrow said. The reorganization included incentives and retirement costs that reduced reserve funds but, Morrow said, over time would reduce village payroll for police by $400,000. “We are in great shape, and the residents are not listening to the comptroller’s story.” Despite what Morrow said, the state

comptroller’s office confirms Huntington Bay is susceptible to fiscal stress. According to a statement from Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli’s office, “susceptible to fiscal stress” is the least severe of three categories that all municipalities found to be under fiscal stress were filed into. The other two category designations are “moderate fiscal stress” and “significant fiscal stress.” In order to be designated as “susceptible to fiscal stress,” a municipality has to reach at least 45 percent of the total points of the fiscal stress score. The scores are made using annual financial reports that are submitted by local governments to the state comptroller’s office. Fiscal stress is usually defined as a local government’s inability to generate enough revenues within its current fiscal period to meet its costs. The comptroller’s system evaluates local governments based on both financial and environmental indicators. The indicators of a local government’s financial state are its year-end balance, operating deficits, cash position, use of short-term debt and fixed costs. Environmental indicators include population, age, poverty, employment base and more. Fund balances, like Huntington Bay’s reserve fund balance, are used to

identify the amount of money available to cushion revenue shortfalls or expenditure overruns. According to DiNapoli’s office, a negative or low-level fund balance can affect the local government’s ability to provide services at current levels. It also claims that fund balance is a strong measure of the financial condition of a local government. In a letter Morrow posted to the Huntington Bay website when the scores were

originally released in February, he criticized the message that the comptroller’s office was sending to residents. “It makes the jobs of local leaders harder. It is a waste of New York State taxpayer dollars,” Morrow said in the letter. “With no conversation or discussion with our village, we were given a negative designation that is very misleading to our residents. By releasing reports that create inane headlines, they confuse residents.”

OPINION

Some face washes contain microbeads, which can be dangerous to the environment.

EdiTOriAL

It’s the little things

Could the stuff you’re washing your face with end up in your sushi? it sounds crazy, but yes. We don’t often agree with legislators who want to add more restrictions to businesses, but a recently approved law, drafted by Suffolk County Legislator Kara hahn (d-Setauket), tries to take tiny pieces of plastic out of the equation. The culprit is known as microbeads, which are used as exfoliants and are becoming more and more common in personal care products like facial scrubs and toothpastes. The tiny particles are too small for our treatment plants to filter out of wastewater, so they pick up toxins and are discharged into our waterways. Small creatures confuse them with food and ingest them, and those small creatures are consumed by larger creatures — which then reach us at the top of the food chain. hahn’s law passing this week means products containing microbeads are going to start disappearing from Suffolk County shelves, with complete removal by 2018. While some of us may lose our exfoliant, we will all gain a healthier water supply and environment. it’s a sacrifice we’re willing to make, because without it, we may not have the clean water we need to exfoliate with in the first place.

Elected officials watch the installation of a septic system in Nesconset late last month.

Suffolk’s septic philosophy needs shift: Murdocco TO ThE EdiTOr: Your editorial advocating for sewers in Suffolk County accurately notes that our cesspool systems are antiquated, and something must be done. however, it’s simply not that simple. The philosophy taken by the county must shift — sewers, while an integral component of attracting growth, serve a critical environmental function. Up until this point, the conversation regarding sewering always steers

to discussing in tandem increased developmental density, additional multifamily projects and ways to grow our stagnant economy. By themselves, sewers present a “hard” infrastructure solution. To increase their effectiveness, the county must pair the expansion of sewer infrastructure with “soft” solutions as well — increasing tidal wetlands, reducing runoff, as well as continuing public awareness campaigns.

if our region is serious about protecting the region’s sole-source aquifer, we need to start thinking comprehensively about sewers, our land-use strategies and future development needs. The mere assumption that sewers equal growth will lead to problems down the road if our growth strategies aren’t data-backed and regional in scope. rich Murdocco Syosset

Life’s wobbles cause us to rock back and forth

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

ome readers may remember those egg-shaped rolypoly toys from the 1970s called the Weebles. The slogan they used was: “Weebles wobble, but they don’t fall down.” All these years later, I get it. Adding a few pounds here and there has turned me into something closer to a Weeble, but that’s not what I mean. I get the notion of wobbling.

That’s what we do. Challenges cause us to rock back and forth as we endure losses and defeats. But, then, much of the time, we don’t fall down. Using material that was more dense at the bottom of the egg-shaped creatures, these Weebles remained upright no matter how many times we flicked our fingers at them. With humans, however, the mechanism includes the people around us. I recently attended the bar mitzvah of the son of a great friend from middle school. My friend and I met when we were the same age as our sons. It’s one of the many pause-toreflect landmarks along the road of life. I remember thinking how incredibly old I’d be in the year 2000. I also remember passing my mother’s age when she gave birth to me even before I met my wife. Anyway, back at the bar mitzvah, my friend stood with

his wife, both beaming as their son sang a text in a language none of them can speak. These rites of passage aren’t easy. They’re not like getting up in the morning and deciding what clothing to wear at the last minute. They take months to plan, involve commitment and sometimes seem so far away that they are a distant dot on an unimaginable horizon. And then, all of a sudden, the future is now. There we are, moving into a new role, cheering on our children or, in my case, the son of my friend. Those years weren’t always easy. There isn’t a parenting playbook we can consult on Page 9 when a child can’t fall asleep or Page 15 when a child suddenly can’t keep any food down. Yes, of course, there are books on parenting that offer just that kind of advice, but there’s always an added curve. We also make our own playbook as we go, combining lessons each set of grandparents

taught us. One such curve hit us during the delivery of our daughter. We had taken several Lamaze classes. None of them, however, prepared us for the hours of attempting to deliver our daughter, followed by what now feels like the inevitable decision to perform a C-section. My friend gave an emotional speech about his son, sharing the moments of triumph along with some of the unexpected tribulations. As he told the stories about those early years, I remember talking with him over the phone, hearing his voice weakened by fatigue and worry, unsure of the next steps he’d need to take to help his son grow and develop into the young man he would become. My friend was wobbling. He, his wife and their son got through some of those early difficulties, thanks to the support of the people who were there celebrating this milestone.

And then, all of a sudden, the future is now. These big moments are a wonderful opportunity for us to recognize the life landmarks with the people who have kept us from falling down. They could include everyone from our parents to our neighbors and friends to the teacher who saw the best in our children, even when our children’s confidence was f lagging and they felt like anything but The Little Engine That Could. They are also a chance to take stock of the support networks that enable us Weebles to head to the next celebration of life.

Some of the best and worst in China

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

ow is the food in China?” That is one of the most often-asked questions when people learn that I have just returned from my trip accompanying my son (see also last week’s column). The answer is the same as it would be here: It depends where you eat. As my son was invited to speak at a half-dozen medical centers, his hosts graciously provided some meals that we enjoyed, although we didn’t always know

“

what we were eating. Yes, the food was somewhat different from that served in Chinese restaurants here. In China, vegetables can be eaten, especially greens, at every meal with abundant tofu. Some of the dishes I had not seen before, and also some of their delicious fruits were new to us. There were fewer heavy sauces, less fried foods, lots of fish and seafood and smaller portions of meat — pork, chicken and some beef — often in combination with vegetables. Depending on the region, there was varying emphasis on sweet or spice. Dumplings were a constant, and soup with noodles came at the end of the meal. Dishes were placed on a large Lazy Susan in the center of the table, and each person plucked morsels with chopsticks as the turntable rotated. There were almost never any dairy products; many Asians are lactose intolerant. A treat for the Chinese, and therefore for us, was “hot pot.” We sat in a restaurant at a round table, in the center of which was a heating element topped by a pot

divided into two compartments. One half was for herbs floating in a consommé, the other for “spicy” — and they mean it. The wait staff brought dishes ranging from fish to meat to vegetables and tofu, all cut into bite-sized pieces. We had prepared ourselves with small bowls of spices that we had chosen from perhaps two-dozen offerings on an adjoining side bar. As the liquid boiled, we dipped in our bits of fish or spinach, much as you would with fondue. But instead of coating the food, we were actually cooking it, for a few seconds or however long we wished, then dragging it through our bowl of spices on the way to our mouths. During our trip of more than some 3,000 miles, we visited six cities and a dramatic near-9,000-foot volcanic mountain with a crater lake in the center. The cities were Shanghai, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Changchun and Beijing, while Changbai Mountain is right on the border with North Korea. All had their special sights, and all had their stories. Throughout, the people were friendly and open,

spontaneously answering a smile with one of their own, and interested in us. We knew they were curious because they stood in front of us and stared, something that is not frowned upon culturally. Some of those who spoke English came up to practice and to inquire where we were from and why we had come. The majority of tourists in China, especially this past year, are Chinese which speaks to the growing middle class; most of the rest are from other Asian countries. We moved from place to place but only rarely saw the sun and blue sky. Pollution sits atop the country like a bathing cap on a swimmer’s head. As we rode on their bullet train, a high-speed marvel traveling at some 300 kilometers per hour (about 190 mph) from Shanghai to Hangzhou, we could understand why. Through the window, we could see tall buildings with a school in their midst and children playing in the schoolyard. Adjacent to the residences were a couple of factories with thick black smoke rising from their chimneys. Beside the factories were a number of

farms, their produce neatly growing in rows carefully tended by the farmers. This pattern was repeated often. There appears to be no zoning; water has to be boiled or bottled for drinking; and agriculture is poisoned by the toxic air. The people and the government well realize the situation and they are trying to rectify matters. It is a price the population is paying for their incredible economic leap forward. An American woman, living in Beijing who grew up in Northport, told us that she and her husband were staying only one more year because they feared for their baby’s health. Why were they there at all? Both of them were making such high salaries teaching English in the schools, and household help was so cheap. China is a land of contrasts. Final installment next week

I think we need to control the middle of the field better.” With 10:35 left to play, Huntington senior midfielder and co-captain Olvin Palma scored after rocketing a shot on net from nearly 30 yards out, which surprised Centereach’s defense, leaving it with little time to react. On the opposite side of the field, sophomore goalkeeper Nat Amato, who is in his first year with the team, made some key saves. He made a total of five. “I felt pretty confident,” he said of being in net, adding that the players have

been warm and welcoming to the new addition. “This team has great chemistry, since they’ve all been playing together since they were young. It’s a great team.” While the Blue Devils are excited for another postseason appearance, the team’s main goal is having a home playoff game. “We haven’t had a home playoff game in a real long time,” Pagano said. “I think we’re on track to do it. This is a really, really good group of kids, and as you continue to win games, you start to think that maybe a county final run isn’t out of the question. So right now, the way we’re playing, I think we have as good a shot as anybody.”
