H’ton Supervisor Frank Petrone will not seek re-election As incumbent bows out, potential challengers come out of the woodwork By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com After more than two decades at the helm, 72-year-old Huntington Town Supervisor Frank Petrone (D) announced last week he will not be seeking re-election this fall for another term as supervisor. “It is with a considerable sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, as well as a little bit of sadness, that I am announcing today that I will not be a candidate for re-election this year,” Petrone wrote in an open letter last week. He said it was a difficult decision, but felt he had achieved what he wanted to when he first took office. “Since becoming town supervisor … I have consistently pursued an agenda that mirrored my first campaign slogan: People before Politics,” he said. “My agenda was to run town government in a way that made quality of life for our residents my No. 1 priority. And now, looking back, I believe I have accomplished what I set out to do back in 1993. It is only when an elected official puts people first that politics can be used for the greater good.” Since being elected supervisor almost 24 years ago, Petrone has worked on issues spanning from creating affordable housing,

parking, revitalizing Huntington Station, improving local water quality and more. Petrone said he is proud of his fiscal management record, which includes reducing the debt service from 24 percent to about 7 percent in the operating budget and obtaining and maintaining an AAA bond rating. He also mentioned his environmental record, which includes spearheading the first open-space bond act on Long Island, protecting 1,000 acres of land from development, purchasing more than 300 acres for preservation, creating nine new parks and improving 73 others. The supervisor credited his achievements to his ability to run a bipartisan government. “We hired people based on their qualifications and not their party affiliation,” he said. “We worked together as professionals and, when necessary, we reached across party lines to move initiatives forward.” He thanked the many people in government he’s worked with throughout the years, as well as his wife Pat Petrone “for understanding that the demands of this job are 24/7 and for allowing me to focus on my public responsibilities, sometimes at the expense of family ones.” At the town board meeting Tuesday, April 4, residents thanked Petrone for his

Town board members praised Petrone for his leadership. “The supervisor has a great ability to bring people together toward a common goal,” Councilwoman Tracey Edwards (D) said in an email. “We will miss his guidance, leadership and passion for our great town.” Councilman Mark Cuthbertson (D) echoed the sentiment. “A little more than 23 years ago, Frank Petrone assumed the office of supervisor and inherited a town adrift in fiscal instability, laden with debt and countless quality of life issues needing immediate attention,” he said in an email. “Pledging to place the people above politics, Supervisor Petrone

Huntington awarded $1 million for microgrid from state ‘It’s critical that communities across New York have reliable power to provide vital services when they are needed the most.’

By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com Huntington’s future just got a little bit brighter, as the town was recently awarded $1 million from the New York Prize Community Microgrid competition. The prize helps communities reduce costs, promote clean energy, and build reliability and resiliency into the electric grid. It’s part of a statewide endeavor to modernize New York’s electric grid, spurring innovation and community partnerships with utilities, local governments, and the private sector. Huntington’s proposal would link Town Hall, the Village Green Senior Center, the Huntington YMCA, the Huntington Wastewater Treatment Plant and Huntington Hospital into an electric grid that would be able more quickly to resume full-power operations in the event of massive and long power outages such as occurred during Hurricane Sandy. Huntington Supervisor Frank Petrone said major storms have helped push Huntington to address the power needs of the community. “One of the lessons we learned from Superstorm Sandy was the importance of ensuring facilities providing vital services and emergency shelter continue to have power so they can address residents’ health and

Huntington was one of the 11 communities awarded a $1 million grant. safety needs,” he said at the event. “This grant takes Huntington one step closer towards ensuring that if another storm like Sandy occurs, we can seamlessly transition into our emergency mode.” As part of the competition, Huntington will receive $1 million through the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, which administers NY Prize, to conduct detailed engineering designs and business plans for a microgrid to bring local clean energy generation and backup power to the community. More

than 100 communities applied for the competition. New York Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul traveled to Town Hall March 23 to announce the achievement. “New York has been a nexus for energy innovation since Thomas Edison flipped the switch at the Pearl St. Station 133 years ago,” Hochul said at the event. “Microgrids provide critical power backup while supporting the development of on-site cutting edge renewable energy technologies, which is why we are continuing to incen-

tivize communities through NY Prize to invest in sustainable development.” Ten other communities statewide have been awarded this prize, and N.Y. Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) said providing funding for microgrids is crucial for survival in emergencies, and also supports the development of renewable energy technologies. Additionally, microgrids support New York State’s goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 40 percent by 2030. “It’s critical that communities across New York have reliable power to provide vital services when they are needed the most,” Cuomo said in a statement. “These awards will help local government modernize and harden their power infrastructure, as well as join this administration’s fight against climate change, and create a cleaner, greener, Empire State for all.”

Huntington area libraries get the green light on budgets By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com

Huntington

Huntington Public Library’s budget passed with 307 yes votes to 80 no votes, and Kimberly Hawkins was chosen to serve another term as the library’s trustee. The $8,984,918 budget is a 0.75 percent increase from last year’s budget or an increase of about $66,000. The biggest expenses include personnel services and salaries, and maintenance of facilities. “As we continue to offer our many and varied programs and services, I’d like you to know how much I appreciate the support that you, our patrons, continue to give us,” Joanne Adam, library director, said on their website. Hawkins beat out newcomer Paul Ehrlich, and in her candidate questionnaire said her experience already being involved as a trustee was more valuable to residents than fresh blood. “I have a great depth of knowledge from being a trustee for more than five years,” she said. “I feel a deep commitment to the library and feel strongly that my experience as a trustee, board president, member of multiple committees and chief negotiator of the collective bargaining agreement makes me extremely qualified for the position. Having a trustee with this level of experience is in the best interests of our community.”

Harborfields

Harborfields Public Library passed its 2017-18 budget with 220 yes votes to 37 no votes. The $4.9 million budget is less than a

$100,000 increase or a 1.7 percent increase from last year’s budget, with the biggest increases in health insurance, retirement, workers compensation, computer equipment, accounting fees and transfer for debt services. The tax increase comes to 1.92 percent or about $91,000 more raised in taxes compared to last year’s budget. In a letter to residents, library director Carol Albano talked about some of the projects the library worked on with grants they applied for from New York State. “Our role as the community center continues to evolve,” she said. “Over the past few years we have recognized the need for more quiet space, technology training and for an expansion to our teen area. Our new training room is used as an additional quiet space that can transform into a technology training room when needed. Both the existing quiet room and the training room received new furniture, carpeting, LED lighting and electrical outlets for plugging in and charging all of the latest technology. Whether you have an exam to study for, are working from home, or just need a space to do some research, you’ll find a quiet spot in the library!” As for the new area for young adults, many modern updates were made. “Our new area for young adults, Teen’Scape, offers books, computers, comfortable seating, study areas, a Maker Space and plenty of outlets – everything that a modern teen needs,” Albano said. “Teen’Scape combines the best of traditional library resources with cutting-edge technology. It is the go-to place for Harborfields teens to not only read and study but to also learn, create and explore many interests, and of course meet up with friends.”

Harborfields public Library passed their budget with 220 yes votes.

Northport-East Northport

With 436 yes votes and 61 no votes the Northport-East Northport Public Library was able to pass their 2017-18 budget. The $9.9 million budget expects about $20,000 less in revenue from the year before, and the tax increase from last year is about $100,000 more. The biggest cost increases come from health insurance for employees, library materials including books and electronic costs and computer hardware and software. Judith Bensimon was also elected as a first-time library trustee.

an open Letter to Senator John Flanagan and Parents of young Children in district 2 I was born and raised on Long Island. I played basketball and was an avid Knicks fan. I was also sexually abused for many years by a family member. Because of the limitations in New York law for victims of child sexual abuse I am denied a voice in our State courts. The doors to Justice are locked, and you, Senator Flanagan, hold the keys. I’ve done my homework on the facts about child sexual abuse: 1.

Most child victims are abused by someone they know; a family member, neighbor, teacher, coach, etc.;

The fear of not being believed, or threats of continued abuse prevent victims from reporting these crimes to authorities;

It typically takes many years for victims to face their abuse head on, find emotional strength, and pursue their rights in a court of law; and

When victims cannot legally name their abusers, the sexual perpetrators hide behind the Statute of Limitations and continue to abuse more children.

I’ve also done my homework on your recent voting history: Senator Flanagan, last June, you and your Senate colleagues voted unanimously to amend and extend the statute of limitations in two bills. You acted because you rightly recognized the inadequacy of the existing laws to provide justice to New Yorkers impacted by environmental damages. 1) The Agent Orange bill (S7087) revived time barred causes of action and created a 2-year window for those Vietnam Vets who were denied justice to file their old claims. 2) The Superfund Site bill (S6824) extended the Statute of Limitations and amended the rules giving victims three years from the time of designation by the Feds as a superfund site. I applaud you and your Senate colleagues for taking these important steps. These are reasonable, just and fair laws that give victims a right to justice. Again, I ask you Senator Flanagan, if Vets and other victims of contamination have a right to justice based on a harm caused many, many years ago, why is it that victims of child sexual abuse do not? If you give Vets a revival window, why not victims of child sexual abuse? Why the obvious contradiction? Why justice for some, but not all? I am a mother of five beautiful children, an avid basketball coach and a teacher – I tell all of my children, players and students – if it doesn’t feel right, it isn’t. Well, Senator Flanagan, this isn’t right. You are holding the key to the locked courthouse doors. Let victims of child sexual abuse in. Give them justice. Since you refuse to meet with me Senator Flanagan, I call on you in these pages, to do the right thing. Just as you and your Senate colleagues gave justice to Vets and other victims last June, please give victims of child sexual abuse their justice. Further, I call on all parents of young children and good citizens reading this to demand justice from their leaders, and demand a change in the law – a change that will give victims the opportunity for justice, and in doing so, identify dangerous sexual predators. CaLL Senator FLanagan’S oFFICe today (#631-361-2154) and ask him why he and his Senate colleagues are denying victims of child sexual abuse the opportunity for justice, while allowing those who harm children to hide behind this archaic law.

petrone Continued from page A3 for seniors and moderate income families. Throughout his distinguished tenure as supervisor, Frank Petrone never wavered from doing what was in the best interest of his residents. He demanded the best from his fellow town board members and staff, always stressing the importance of upholding our commitment to fair and just public service. It has been an honor and privilege to serve alongside a compassionate and caring gentleman. He has been a faithful and trusted mentor, and I wish him the absolute best in his impending new role as grandfather.” Town Councilman Gene Cook (I) said he hopes Petrone’s future is as bright as possible. “I wish him the very best,” Cook said in a phone interview. “I have the utmost respect for him and I hope his future is everything he wants it to be.” As for his own future, as a challenger to Petrone’s seat just four years ago, Cook said he’s interested in hearing from residents to see if they would like him to run for supervisor again. “It’s up to the people of Huntington

them,” he said. “If there’s support I’ll look into it and see how I feel about it.” Cook encouraged residents to call or email him if they would like to see him represent them as town supervisor, or even “give me a thumbs-up when you see me in town.” Darryl St. George, a Greenlawn resident who announced his bid for town supervisor last month also praised Petrone. “Supervisor Petrone has committed over 20 years of his life to town government,” he said in an email. “I thank him for the positive contributions he has made to our town.” St. George said he believes the timing is right for a new leader to bring change. “I commend him on his decision as I know it was a difficult one,” he said. “Now is a time for new and energetic leadership to engage our community, and bring real and meaningful change to our neighborhoods. I am dedicated to doing what is right for the people of Huntington and listening to their ideas and concerns.” Petrone’s announcement seems to have widened the pool of candidates for his soon-to-be vacant seat, as Huntington Station resident Brian Muellers said soon after Petrone announced he is

“very seriously,” considering a run. Muellers is a former Nassau County Legislator. He served in the 18th District from 2000 to 2003, and is looking to enter the public arena again after leaving his leadership role at Pall Corporation, a global supplier of filtration, separation and purification products. He recently volunteered for the congressional campaign of U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) which Muellers said reinvigorated his desire to give back. “I am determining for myself if there’s enough interest in the background, experience and leadership I bring for a run for office,” he said in a phone interview. “I have the ability to win tough elections, and I have a strong desire to serve my community.” Petrone said he feels comfortable leaving office now, as many of the projects he set out to work on when he first campaigned are completed and successful. “It was a good breaking time for me personally and a good breaking time for the town,” he said at the town board meeting. “Some new blood will come in and sit in this seat and will maybe have some new ideas that I didn’t have. And that’s what the town needs. It needs to keep moving forward and it needs to keep new ideas floating. So I think it’s time to give someone else an opportunity to do that.”

A lesson in sugar, short and sweet (part one: the players) Your turn

BY chris zenYuh I have had the privilege of teaching high school science (biology, chemistry and physics) for the last thirty years. For the last ten years, I’ve had the additional privilege and responsibility of developing and teaching an elective we simply call “Food Science.” It’s not your usual health class dietary guidelines, nor does it rehash the familiar mantras of counting calories and exercising to balance intake. Instead, we study the cultural, historical, scientific, political and economic contexts of our food system and how that system impacts our environments, both external and internal. This in turn enables students to make much more informed decisions about what they want to put in their bodies. When it comes to sugars, confusion is the name of the game. There are dozens of ingredients that mark the presence of sugars in our food: maltodextrin, dextrose, invert sugar, cane sugar, high fructose corn

syrup and starch, to name a few. Regardless of what the food industry calls them, your body sees basically three end products of their digestion: glucose, fructose and galactose. Which ones you eat, and how much, will dictate both their value and their danger to you. You may have heard of three additional sugars — lactose, sucrose and maltose. Lactose is a combination of one glucose and one galactose. Also known as “milk sugar,” lactose is the nemesis of lactose-intolerant individuals who lack sufficient quantities of the enzyme that can digest it. Instead, bacteria that reside in their intestines get to process it, making painful amounts of gas as a by-product. Galactose can be converted to glucose in your body, but most individuals do not consume enough dairy to make this a source of concern. Maltose is another type of sugar. It is a pairing of two glucose units and is the namesake for maltodextrin, etc. Consuming foods with maltose adds glucose to your diet — worth keeping track of as part of your total glucose consumption. However, the most likely source of sugars in your diet is either sucrose or high fructose corn syrup. Sucrose, known also as table sugar, can be derived from sugar cane (cane sugar) or sugar beets (sugar.) Like lactose and maltose, sucrose is a paired structure, made of one glucose subunit and one fructose subunit. That is what your body absorbs regardless of the source (even organic.) Sparing you the science behind its production, high fructose corn syrup is approxi-

stock photo

mately half glucose, and half fructose too. Regardless of the marketing efforts by the Sugar Association and the Corn Refiners Association to make you believe one is better for you than the other, they end up, metabolically, in a virtual tie. Debating which to consume is a distraction from the consequences of consuming too much of either, or both. The consumption of sugar (the term is legally owned by the Sugar Association as the sole name for sucrose) used to be limited by the relative expense and difficulty in obtaining it from its tropical source. Now the record levels of corn production in America have made it relatively cheap to produce and distribute sugar’s nearly identical-tasting competitor, high fructose corn syrup. You can find it in soda for sure, but also in pickles, peanut butter, ketchup and pretty much anywhere sugar might be

used for additional appeal to consumers. This has paved the way for the combined consumption of these sweeteners to reach more than 150 pounds per year per person in America. This far surpasses the 60 pounds per year considered by some experts to be the maximum amount that can be metabolized without ill consequences including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, fatty liver, cataracts, personality and cognitive dysfunction, some cancers and (by the way) obesity. Tying glucose and fructose consumption to the metabolic consequences noted above requires further discussion. And now, you are properly prepared for those lessons. As we say in Food Science class, “Chow!” Chris Zenyuh is a science teacher at Harborfields High School and has been teaching for 30 years.

Bill nye answers questions from young fans at Book revue in Huntington.

Cheers could be heard down Main Street Monday night, April 3 as Bill Nye was welcomed with open arms to Book Revue in Huntington. Nye was in town to sign copies of his new children’s book “Jack and the Geniuses,” a series co-written with Gregory Mone. The series features real-world science along with action and a mystery that will leave kids guessing until the end, making these books ideal for STEM education. Nye said there are three things we should want for everybody on Earth: clean water; renewably-produced, reliable electricity and access to the internet globally. “With those three things in mind, Jack and the geniuses discover a way for clean water on Earth, the second book they meet a scientist who may be able to produce renewable energy for everyone and so on,” he said at the event. One child yelled out during a break, “Bill, I love you!” and Nye shouted back, “I love you man, and I want you to change the world.” Residents of all ages packed the store after Nye answered questions, waiting to get his signature and share their enthusiasm for him and his work. They wore shirts with Nye’s face on it, brought both old and new books and cheered about how great the world of science is.

Jazzing through New Orleans with Harborfields High School students The Harborfields High School Jazz Band, under the direction of Music Department Coordinator Dan Bilawsky, traveled to New Orleans, Louisiana, March 9 to perform at Loyola University’s Jazz Festival and dockside at the Steamboat Natchez. The four-day trip allowed the students to discover the Crescent City’s culture, history and music as the band traveled to sites

such as Preservation Hall, the National WWII Museum, the Old U.S. Mint, Jackson Square and the French Quarter. At Loyola University, the band performed two sets, receiving Superior rankings for both shows at the festival. This resulted in marking the group as one of the top performing bands. Both performances were given Out-

standing Band status and the trombone and trumpet sections were each awarded Outstanding Section awards, as two of only six sections acknowledged out of approximately 100 sections there. Junior Jay Best and senior Hannah Bartfield were both offered scholarships to attend Loyola’s summer jazz camp, as two of only 11 students awarded out of more than

350 students at the festival. In addition, nearly a third of the band was recognized for outstanding soloing and musicianship. “The students carried themselves with pride and performed with distinction during this trip,” said Bilawsky. “I couldn’t have asked for or imagined anything more.”

Coaches voice concerns with new pitching standards By Desirée Keegan desiree@tbrnewspapers.com

Petrucci also pointed out the fatigue pitchers endure when throwing a particularly strenuous frame, say 30 pitches in one inning, With elbow injuries running through all noting the rules don’t take that into account. levels of baseball at an almost epidemic-like He also had a problem with the fact that freshrate, baseball coaches in New York will now men and seniors, all adhere to the same rules. have state mandated standards to adhere to “You can bring up an eighth-grader and he in handling their young pitchers. Although a can throw 105 pitches on varsity — it doesn’t step in the right direction, some coaches don’t make much sense,” Smithtown East head coach think the new rules go far enough. Ken Klee said. “It should be about development.” The New York State Public High School Another imperfection is pitching on any Athletic Association unveiled its first stab at mound other than in a high school game guidelines coaches and their pitchers need to is not taken into consideration — when a follow last December.

For some schools, especially those in the The limits change in the postseason, where lower leagues, the pitchers are typically the the maximum pitches allowed at the varsity best player on the team and play multiple polevel jumps to 125. sitions when they’re not on the mound. This “These pitch-count rules are a Band-Aid on too can wear out an arm, and isn’t measured a problem that is 2 feet wide,” Ward Melville in the first round of rules. head coach Lou Petrucci said. “What makes “I never let my pitcher catch or my catcher these doctors think that it’s alright for a young pitch,” Herrschaft said. “Those have been my kid to throw three days in a row, while it’s un- standards, especially more recently with the inder a certain amount of pitches, but Mariano crease in Tommy John surgery and concerns.” Rivera, who is a trained professional, can’t For schools like Kings Park, they need to do it?

But most fourth day.” coaches try to limit their throwing in one way or another, or give those players more rest. “To totally get them out of the lineup I think it’s impossible,” head coach Mike Luzim said. “It would negatively impact the normal day-to-day lineups and getting a team prepared to win.” Other new rules include if any pitcher at any level reached the count limit in the middle of an at-bat, he will be allowed to finish that hitter; both teams are required to track pitches on the official NYSPHSAA form and confirm after each inning; and at the game’s conclusion, a pitch count form will be signed by both team’s coaches or designated representatives, and a record will be used to determine which pitchers are available for future games. “There’s room for manipulation,” Klee said. “It should be put in a database where everyone can see it.” An app called GameChanger is one that tracks this, and other stats, and is used by many coaches across Long Island, like Klee and Luzim. “Virginia and Kentucky both mandate that high school teams use GC for this very

The new state standards limit the amount of pitches an athlete can toss in a given day, while allotting a certain period of rest time for each increment of pitches. reason,” Game Changer representative David Kennedy said. “We would love it if New York did the same. It would streamline the process and allow each team to oversee pitch counts for players.” Luzim said it could eliminate discrepancies that could make a difference throughout the season. “Right now, everything goes by the home book, so if there were a number that was off by one or two pitches it goes back to the home book, and what if the home book is off by one pitch? And that’s a 95 instead of a 94? That could change the number of days and that could lead to problems or arguments,” he said. “I think there will be a million different scenarios that come up this year that will have to be looked at.” Other tricky scenarios include a game postponed due to darkness and doubleheaders. Currently, when it comes to doubleheaders, a hurler competing in the first game cannot pitch in the second. “It would be reasonable to have a kid close the end of the first game and then maybe pitch a couple of innings in the second game,” Rosen said. Klee disagreed. “I think that if they throw once that day

they shouldn’t come back — it’s dangerous,” he said. “I would be an advocate for making it even stricter, meaning less pitches and more rest.” He also doesn’t like the wording of a “nights” rest, which was changed from a days rest. To him, there’s a loophole there that could count the night after the game as all the rest that’s needed. Luzim said he’d like to see a cap on the amount of pitches per week. “You can still end up throwing in a kid who pitches 95 pitches, right below the last level, and they could come back on the Thursday game and throw 105 pitches on that Thursday,” he said, “Then, they could really come back on that following Monday. So they could really end up throwing over 300 pitches in one week.” For now, the coaches are just happy to see New York is trying to regulate the game to protect players. “I get that they’re trying to address the problem, but we need to address the problem with more substantive thinking,” Petrucci said. “I think people today don’t trust the coaches. We’ve been doing this quite a while. Us coaches care about these kids, and we’re going to continue to push for their safety.”

The Long Island Sound. Photo from Ryan Madden

The open space that state Assemblyman Steve Englebright is trying to preserve as a park in Shoreham.

Thumbs up for those preserving our land We love seeing green. Our local government officials have been making big strides toward preserving our open space, and we applaud our legislators, town council members and town board members for the fresh air we continue breathing. Recently, Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) helped preserve a parcel of property adjacent to Cordwood Landing County Park in Miller Place and is currently working on the 10-mile Rails to Trails project, similar to the Setauket-Port Jefferson Station Greenway Trail, which would connect Port Jefferson Station to Wading River. The legislator is also trying to purchase the old Kmart property in Middle Island, with the hopes of turning it into a Field of Dreams similar to Heritage Park in Mount Sinai, on which she also worked. State Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) is leading a proposal to preserve the Shoreham-Wading River Forest, which houses the Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant and where LIPA is trying to build a solar farm, by turning it into a state park. Anker along with Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket), who is also sponsoring the Rails to Trails project, have increased county fines and are looking into jail time for illegal dumping in our local parks. Huntington Town Supervisor Frank Petrone (D) recently reflected on spearheading the first open space bond act, as well as preserving more than 1,000 acres from development during his over 20-year tenure. These measures preserve the natural beauty of our Island and keep our green space thriving amid new apartment buildings and storefronts. It can be challenging to do, but our government officials’ valiant efforts have been met with vast approval, and we side with those voices. These projects create formal and informal sport and recreation, preserve the natural environment, aid in the provision of green space and even urban stormwater management and connect our communities.

Supporting the Long Island Sound I strongly support Congressman Lee Zeldin’s call for Congress to ensure continued funding for the Long Island Sound and National Estuary Program in the upcoming appropriation vote, as detailed in a March 23 story titled “Zeldin calls for Long Island Sound, Estuary Program funding.”

Last year, $26 million was secured for the National Estuary Program, but $10 million that was supposed to be earmarked for the Long Island Sound was not approved by the Senate. We need these programs and the funds they provide to protect the Long Island Sound and Peconic

Bay from threats such as nitrogen, algae blooms, flooding and wetlands loss. I appreciate Congressman Zeldin’s support of these vital programs.

Ed Romaine Brookhaven Town Supervisor

Zeldin is no environmentalist The very same day a letter from Rep. Zeldin appeared in this newspaper touting himself as a defender of the EPA Long Island Sound Study, he was voting in Congress to cripple the reliance of the EPA on qualified scientists not paid by industry. Talk about irony! The bill in question, H.R. 1431, makes it much more difficult for scientists with academic credentials to serve on the Scientific Advisory Board (SAB), which guides EPA rule-making, and also makes it easier to pack the SAB with industry mouthpieces. Rep. Zeldin seems to think industry-financed figures are preferable to impartial scientists in guiding EPA decisionmaking. There’s no point writing letters pleading with Scott Pruitt not to axe the Long Island Sound Study while helping him sabotage the core mission of the EPA, namely science-driven protection of the environment. More generally, Rep. Zeldin doesn’t seem to understand that what happens outside the 1st

CD matters inside the 1st CD. Human-caused global warming is a worldwide problem. It knows no boundaries. When lobsters die off or flooding increases or algal blooms surge or estuary eco-systems are damaged here on Long Island, we are suffering the consequences of it. And this is only the beginning. Rep. Zeldin has a long string of anti-environmental votes. That’s why he’s rated the worst congressman in New York by the League of Conservation Voters. He’s voted to allow oil and gas companies operating on public lands to vent or flare instead of capture methane, which is 30 times worse than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas. He’s voted to nullify the stream protection rule, encouraging more coal production by permitting coal companies to dump toxic waste into waterways. He’s voted in favor of allowing new surveys exploring for oil and gas in the Atlantic Ocean. He’s voted to block the EPA from implementing its Methane Pollution

Standard. He’s voted for across the board cuts in funding for EPA and Interior Department conservation programs except where specifically prohibited by law. There are plenty more, but you get the idea. Trump claimed global warming was a hoax perpetrated by China, and Zeldin had no problem supporting him, even in the GOP primary. Now that he’s got his wish and Trump is president, it’s no use crying about EPA program cuts to Scott Pruitt, a Trump appointee who’s had a long-standing goal of gutting the EPA. And it’s no use crying if the National Estuary Program is thrown on the garbage heap by the Trump administration along with all the other “useless” programs like Meals on Wheels or the National Endowment for the Arts. With his voting record and his support for Trump, Rep. Zeldin must take us for fools to believe that he cares about the environment.

e’s cold and he wants to go home. He has to go to the bathroom and he can’t stand here another minute. He’s way too hot under all that equipment and he wants to go swim somewhere. Yes, these are just some of the sinister motives often attributed to umpires, referees or officials at games, as coaches and parents try to explain a call that they clearly saw the other way. Yet if you ask most of the parents on the other team, including By Daniel Dunaief those who seem like eminently reasonable people, they would tell you that

D. None of the above

they thought the umpire made the right call. Here we are again, with Little League baseball underway and with championship T-shirts, sweatshirts and trophies at stake. Standing between the starting point for all those teams and the ultimate glory are the other teams, the weather which forces endless makeup games, huge parties that take half the team from a scheduled game and, of course, the umpires. I have tremendous sympathy for those umpires because I was one decades ago. No, I didn’t call Derek Jeter out or ring up Alex Rodriguez. My brother and I signed up to umpire Little League games. In several games, batter after batter would get into a full count. Invariably the hitter would take a pitch that was somewhere between the outside corner and just outside. With every eye on the field staring at me, I had to make a difficult choice. Yes, of course, there is a strike zone, and in the strike zone is a

strike and outside the zone is a ball, but what if the ball is squeezing along the edge of the plate, near the bottom of the strike zone? I aimed for consistency, but I also became involved in “make good” calls. I’d call a borderline strike a ball on the first batter, disappointing the pitcher and catcher, and then I’d call the next borderline strike a strike, deflating the hitter and his teammates. Numerous pitches were so close that I knew the groans would come even before my arm signaled for the hitter to go to first or return to the bench. Once, before a game, a coach came up to me and told me that he was a bit of a hothead and that I should feel free to eject him from the game. Too bad I didn’t have the foresight then to ask him what he was doing coaching 8-year-olds in the first place if he felt the need to argue calls. Sure enough, in the second inning, he screamed at me for a

called strike. After I ejected him, he winked at me as if we had each played our defined roles. His players tried not to snicker as they watched him leave the field for what I understand was one of many such dismissals. Nowadays, people complain about officiating in professional sports constantly, especially with endless video replays from angles no individual referee could possibly have at the same time, much less an umpire on a hot, dry baseball field. I recognize that we live in a society where we have a right to express ourselves, but we also have a responsibility to accept the rule of law. Like it or not, the umpires on the field establish and enforce those rules. Maybe, as we push our lawn chairs into the cars on our way to another game, we should remember that the umpire isn’t out to get anyone. The official is just trying to do his or her best to make sure both teams have an equal opportunity to succeed.
