LI residents urge Cuomo to pass climate protection act Activists target Trump administration picks who doubt climate change and science behind it ‘We need to protect our communities, healthwise, with the rising rates of skin cancer and respiratory disease. Global warming is a serious thing and it’s got to stop.’

By Kevin Redding kevin@tbrnewspapers.com In the wake of the decision of Presidentelect Donald Trump (R) to nominate ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson as secretary of state, along with climate-change doubters to top federal positions, Long Island residents and economy activist groups called on Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) to #TakeTrumpOn and fight against the climate-change denial of the incoming administration. Holding up signs reading “NY Renews” and “Make NY A Climate Leader,” the group of protesters rallied in front of the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles Office in Hauppauge Dec. 21, urging Cuomo to move the state and country forward and pass the Climate and Community Protection Act in his upcoming 2017 state budget. The act would attempt to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change through a combination of measures aimed at reducing statewide greenhouse gas emissions and improving the state’s resiliency against future extreme weather events, like Hurricane Sandy. Long Island Progressive Coalition member K.C. Alvey said, at the protest, that climate change needs to be acknowledged. “Climate change is real, it’s urgent, and

works for all of us.” Alvey said Cuomo has expressed his support for many of these environmental policies. In August, the governor announced the approval of New York’s Clean Energy Standard, which requires 50 percent of the state’s electricity to come from renewable energy sources like wind and solar by 2030, with a phase-in schedule throughout the next several years. “We need him to codify this into law and move these plans forward,” Alvey said. “We’re not just calling for clean energy by any means necessary ... we’re calling for a just and equitable transition to 100 percent clean energy and making sure that no one is left behind.” During the course of his campaign and since winning the election, Trump has

County no longer needs court to hold illegal inmates By Kevin Redding Kevin@tbrnewspapers.com Suffolk County Sheriff Vincent DeMarco has sent a clear message to undocumented immigrants who choose to break the law, by announcing the county will no longer need a judge’s order before detaining and holding illegal inmates wanted by federal immigration officials. The policy reversal, which DeMarco believes will be good “for the country, not just the county,” has taken Suffolk off the list of “sanctuary cities” — regions that protect undocumented immigrants by not prosecuting them solely for violating federal immigration laws in the United States. The county’s removal from the list is something DeMarco has been in favor of for some time. The sheriff initiated a review of the sanctuary policy alongside county Legislator Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) as soon as the policy was adopted more than a year ago, after concerns that it creates public safety problems by allowing the release of criminal immigrants back to the communities as opposed to letting agents

cooperation with ICE is going to help Suffolk County with some of the more pressing public safety problems, like the resurgence of MS13 [street gang] activity there.” Cilmi said this is a step in the right direction. “There’s no cause for protesting because, from a practical standpoint, nothing has really changed and it has nothing to do with undocumented immigrants who are living here,” he said. “As long as they’re following the law, it doesn’t affect them at all. Those who aren’t will see this is not going to be tolerated.” He said he suspects that the vast majority of the immigrant population living in the county — documented or undocumented — would be supportive of policies that affect drug dealers and gang members who continue to “wreak havoc” in the areas where they live. “No one wants crimes in their communities,” he said.

Bellone: Prepare yourself and your home for freezing winter weather County service centers

By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewspapers.com It’s often called the most wonderful time of the year, but whoever coined that phrase must have been a fan of freezing temperatures. With a mild fall finally giving way to traditional winter weather over the past week, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) wants residents to make sure they protect themselves, their homes, their loved ones and their pets from the dangers presented by the harsh conditions. “Although no amount of preparations can prepare us for a natural disaster, we have taken the necessary steps to ensure that Suffolk County is prepared to handle routine inclement weather conditions,” Bellone said at a press conference Dec. 15, where he was joined by Suffolk County Police Commissioner Tim Sini and other county officials. “We have been extremely fortunate this winter, but looking at forecasts, it appears our luck is running out. Now is the time for our residents to make sure they take the necessary precautions to protect themselves.” Bellone suggested several precautions Suffolk County residents should take to ensure safety and avoid inconveniences during the winter months, including running water to prevent pipes from freezing; keeping portable heaters on flat surfaces and away from flammable objects; driving with caution even without the presence of

suffolk County executive steve Bellone and other county officials warn residents of winter weather dangers for people, homes and pets. precipitation; checking on loved ones, especially the elderly; watching for some of the signs of hypothermia, like confusion, memory loss, drowsiness, exhaustion and slurred speech; keeping pets indoors; and disconnecting hoses from exterior lines. Bellone has partnered with the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless to collect new or gently used winter jackets for those

in need. Coats can be donated at county facilities across Suffolk. Residents can contact the county’s Temporary Housing Assistance Unit at 631854-9547 or the Department of Social Services Home Energy Assistance Program at 631-854-9100 in the event they run out of fuel to heat their home or require emergency burner repair.

The county executive also detailed options for the homeless during times when temperatures can plummet to the point of presenting deadly consequences. Sheltering assistance is available at Suffolk County service centers located in Deer Park, Coram, Hauppauge and Riverhead, and the county also implemented a Safe Beds Program to provide residents in need with warm shelter during the winter. More information about these programs can be found on the county’s website at www.suffolkcountyny.gov. “Nobody should be left out in this dangerously cold spell,” Bellone said.

youth Continued from page A3 Night at the Smithtown Landing Country Club for grades 6 and up. The board has developed community education seminars and empowerment programs for students focusing on a range of important topics, like the dangers of underage drinking. A fundraising campaign was held to provide school supplies to kids in need as well as a food drive for Smithtown Emergency Food Pantry. Working predominantly with schools, volunteers help the bureau provide enrichment programs, intervention programs for kids experiencing difficulties or exhibiting behavioral issues, substance abuse prevention programs and anger management programs. Stacey Sanders, executive director of the Youth Bureau and secretary of the Advisory Board, said the board has a needs assessment committee, a youth empowerment committee, a social media committee and a board training committee. “The board helps keep the supervisor and [town officials] aware of the needs and beliefs of what’s needed, what resi-

dents are actually feeling — adults and youth — and the problems faced in the community,” she said. Alexis Davitashivili, a junior at Commack High School who joined the Advisory B`oard in September, said her favorite initiative so far was when she and other student volunteers went to a local grocery store and placed approximately 1,100 stickers on alcohol cases to try and put a stop to underage drinking. The stickers read “Your Actions Matter! Preventing underage drinking is everyone’s responsibility.” “It’s important for young people to get involved in their community because they’re kind of the faces of the community,” she said. “Although older people are involved, not all younger children listen to adults. Hearing things from a teen or someone close to your age is going to have more of an affect on them and the community as a whole. It might even help the adults open their eyes, like ‘oh if a child can do it, so can I.’” If you’re a high school student or adult interested in joining the Youth Advisory Board, call the Youth Bureau at 631-3607595 for more information.

protest Continued from page A5 voiced his skepticism of the scientific view that humans cause global warming. The president-elect has tweeted out “the concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese” in order to topple the United States in manufacturing, and he has expressed interest in canceling the Paris climate accord and undoing clean air and water protections. This potential action has caused distress among scientists and climate activists. Shay O’Reilly, an organizer with the not-for-profit Sierra Club, called the Trump administration “a set of billionaires who seek to further enrich themselves and defend what they have already accumulated by reinforcing our present reliance on fossil fuels.” O’Reilly said the new cabinet and their beliefs threaten the immediate survival of marginalized colonies from New York to the South Pacific, but especially Long Island — a uniquely vulnerable location to climate change, with so much coastline.

O’Reilly said what’s done in New York can affect the rest of the country and the world, should it be decided to pass the legislation. “State action on climate change is not just a political necessity, but a moral imperative,” O’Reilly said. “Cuomo needs to lead the way and listen to the people of New York.” Jack Finkenberg, from the New York Communities for Change coalition, said there are real examples of global warming all over the world. “If you don’t believe there’s global warming, just wait until the next full moon high tide and try to drive along the South Shore of Long Island,” he said. “You can’t do it. It’s flooded. We need to protect our communities, healthwise, with the rising rates of skin cancer and respiratory disease. Global warming is a serious thing and it’s got to stop.” Alvey ended the protest by leading the group in a call-and-response chant. “What do we want?” she yelled. “Renewable energy,” the protesters shouted back. “When do we want it?” she asked. “Now,” they answered.

Kings Park graduates wed Anne Marie Rossi and Matthew Pucci, both Kings Park High School graduates, class of 2007, wed Friday Dec. 30. The ceremony, cocktail hour and gala were held overlooking the Peconic River at the new Hyatt next to the Riverhead Aquarium. About 160 family members and closest friends from both their high school and college days joined the 27-year-old couple for their nuptials and ceremony. Three V.I.P. guests included the groom’s grandmother Jane DaVora and the bride’s grandparents Helen and Michael Ledden. The matron of honor was Kerry Ledden Danisi — the mother of the bride’s younger sister and the bride’s godmother. The best

man was Patrick Pucci, the groom’s younger brother. The groom’s parents are Debra and Michael Pucci of Kings Park and the bride’s parents are Maureen Ledden Rossi and Jay Rossi of Kings Park. The groom works for Stonybrook University helping to run the multi-milliondollar sports program, and the bride is with a Limerick-based tech start-up that set up shop in Melville. Reverse brain drain brought the couple back home to their large families and has them residing in the Long Island Smart Growth epicenter — Patchogue Village.

Kingsmen top Huntington, fall in League III matchup By Bill landon Kings Park’s boys’ basketball team enjoyed a 69-49 nonleague come-from-behind win over hosts Huntington Dec. 30. The Kingsmen jumped out to an 8-1 lead before the Blue Devils rattled off 15 unanswered points for a 16-8 advantage at the end of the first quarter. Senior Kevin Lawrence netted nine of those points on four baskets and a free throw. Kings Park clawed back to trail by five with just under four minutes left, and senior guard Paul Cooper helped his team

take the lead, 23-22, by banking four of six free-throw attempts on fouls. “In that first half we weren’t communicating, and then guys started to talk and make each other accountable,” Cooper said. “So we got on track, and played good defense and that leads to open shots.” The teams traded scores, and Huntington junior guard Mekhi Harvey let the clock unwind before scoring a field goal, to give the Blue Devils a 26-25 edge heading into the locker room. Kings Park opened the second half with a different defensive look. The Kingsmen swarmed with a full-court press as Huntington turned the ball over and paid the price each time. Harvey said he wasn’t surprised. “We don’t take any team lightly and their defense was pretty rough going into the second half,” he said. Kings Park head coach Christopher Rube said he told his team they might get outplayed, but told the Kingsmen to make sure they didn’t get outworked. They took it to heart. “We increased the intensity in the second half,” Rube said. “We’re 6-1 but I told them, ‘You have to earn it every night,’ and I think they got that message.” Kings Park senior Jeff Li hit a big 3-pointer for his first points of the game to put his team back in front, 28-26, and next up was senior Richie Price, who scored his third trey of the game. Junior guard Jason Hartglass followed with his third of the game, as the Kingsmen jumped out to a 45-31 lead, and Price struck again from 3-point land to put his team out front 48-31.

“When you’re in the zone you’re not thinking about your shot, you’re just letting the game come to you,” Price said. “So when the ball comes to me, I’m not thinking about it, I’m just shooting.” Kings Park sophomore Andrew Bianco opened the scoring for the final quarter with a 3-point play for a 53-33 lead. And Price followed swishing his fifth 3-pointer. Price was splitting time with Liam Thompson before an injury against East Islip the game prior sidelined Thompson. Rube said he was proud of Price, and happy for his showing. He led the team with 17 points. “He played great defensively, he had great energy, played hard on our press, and that spilled over to his offensive game,” the coach said. “He did a great job.” Hartglass, who scored 15 points, let one fly from the left corner while getting knocked to the court by a defender, and saw his shot make it while sitting on the floor. Matter of factly, he made it a fourpoint play from the free-throw line. “We definitely tightened up especially with communication,” Price said. “Not only did we play harder in the second half, we played smarter.” Huntington had no answer. “I would say we got more confident as a team,” Huntington junior Michael Abbondandelo said, despite head coach Brian Carey pulling his starters. “We started driving to the hole more and definitely got more rebounds. Our bench definitely earned that — they needed to go in at that point — it was right to put them in.” Kings Park hosted League IV opponent Half Hollow Hills West next, on Jan. 3, but

fell 86-79, snapping the Kingsmen’s 2-0 undefeated mark in conference play. Cooper scored 23 points, Bianco had 19 points, Price contributed 14, Matt LaCascia finished with 11 and Hartglass tacked on 10. With that loss, Kings Park is 7-2 overall and 2-1 in league play. Kings Park travels to league opponent Deer Park Jan. 6 for a 5:45 p.m. matchup.

OpiniOn Editorial

Letters to the editor

Fake news and the ability to temper and correct Fake news dates back centuries, however, with the advent of social media it has become a phenomenon. The insidious impact of fake news can strike organizations, lives and communities at any time. With so much information out there, the opportunity to create social media environments that dilute the truth and/or spread misinformation deepens our polarization and erodes personal accountability. As information-consumers ,this is a topic worthy of our attention as we have the ability to temper its influence and correct deceptions. Having been the target of a fictitious story in the past several weeks, I’ve become keenly aware of how detrimental it can be. A recent social media campaign

was launched, falsely stating that I, along with another legislator, sponsored a bill to purchase a rock in Rocky Point with county funds. The truth is, I had absolutely nothing to do with the rock and no public or private interest in pursuing its preservation with public or private dollars. The idea was raised by the legislator representing the district where the rock sits, and a proposal was never drafted or presented to the legislature for consideration. I’ve worked hard to represent Suffolk County residents well, and my record shows that I wouldn’t entertain such unwarranted spending. If you ever come across a story that appears out of line with my established record, please don’t

hesitate to call my office directly. I would be happy to answer your questions. It’s good to see social media platforms stepping up to the plate by developing tools to monitor this disturbing trend, but ultimately it is up to us to spread the truth. In 2017 and beyond, I am hopeful that we will all do our part in guarding against falsehoods. Let’s challenge ourselves to seek the whole truth, even if it debunks our suspicions and preconceived notions. Opening our beliefs to scrutiny will strengthen our accountability, our connections, and lead us to a better future.

County Legislator William Spencer Centerport

White people must speak up to spur change A view of the front entrance to one of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement offices

A step in the right direction

As of late December, a change in policy by the Department of Homeland Security makes it legal for Suffolk County law enforcement agencies to hold people eligible for release for up to 48 hours if there is probable cause to believe they immigrated to the United States illegally. The suspect must be convicted of a felony, a significant misdemeanor, three nonsignificant misdemeanors or deemed to pose a threat to national security in order for the hold to happen. Since 2014 — until this policy change — the county has only been able to hold potential illegal immigrants with a warrant from a judge. As an editorial staff that never bought into “build a wall” as an immigration policy, yet recognizes the need for immigration reform, we view this as a valid compromise. Lawbreakers already detained by the criminal justice system will be evaluated prior to their release by representatives from the federal government before it is determined that they can stay in the United States. In theory, this should reduce the number of undocumented, violent people living in our county and country. The list of reasons to hold a suspect is available for anyone to look up online, and it’s clear the main objective of this change is to investigate violent and criminal suspects. This change wasn’t brought about by the administration coming into the White House in two weeks, yet it is entirely possible policy makers will be emboldened by the rhetoric they heard during President-elect Donald Trump’s campaign. Policy changes are likely coming for other departments as well, and it will be up to the American people to remain engaged in the political process, and be vocal, should a policy change occur that doesn’t sit right. This tweak to immigration policy is one we can live with so long as the phrase “probable cause” is interpreted in a fair manner befitting a democracy built on liberty and justice for all.

I was happy to read Charles Cozzolino’s letter in the Dec. 8 edition regarding our Black Lives Matter rally of Nov. 12. Mr. Cozzolino’s main argument, that the event did not promote “unity,” seems to be in response to the headline of the Nov. 17 article, a choice of the newspaper, not the march organizers. In fact, the only reference to unity comes in a quote from one of the “All Lives Matter” folks on the other side of 25A. Of course, it’s easy to accuse others of divisiveness when one is a member of the historically dominant group. “Why can’t these people stop complaining about their oppression?” is the underlying message from such individuals. Also, the saying “all lives matter” stems from either ignorance about or conscious opposition to the assertion that black lives matter. If I say, “Save the polar bears,” it doesn’t mean I don’t care about other animals; I’m simply stressing that the polar bears are endangered. The same is true for black lives, particularly those of young black men in America today and throughout our history. Mr. Cozzolino quotes Marcus Brown, a graduate student in

philosophy and member of Stony Brook University’s Black Lives Matter chapter. Mr. Brown’s comments regarding the “antagonistic” nature of police departments toward black people are rooted in his understanding of the origins of police forces in America, which were as slave patrols, meant to catch runaways. One can understand how a black man might be wary of such organizations. While the ideas of Mr. Brown and his group may be radical, any movement will encompass different ideas about how to achieve its goals; those of us who care about racial justice are not a monolithic entity. Mr. Cozzolino further takes exception to a “white silence kills” sign; he then makes the absurd leap in logic from this sign to violence in communities of color. Though its meaning seems clear enough, the idea that “white silence kills” is simply highlighting the point I made at the conclusion of the original article, that white people must speak up against injustices in this country, even those that don’t directly affect them. The fact that some black and brown people kill other black and brown people doesn’t excuse or

justify violence by the police, who are not private citizens but agents of the state, against unarmed black and brown citizens. Lastly, Mr. Cozzolino incorrectly states that the Black Lives Matter movement was formed in the wake of the Michael Brown shooting in Ferguson; in fact, it was formed after the murderer of Trayvon Martin was acquitted in July of 2013. At the end of the day, a lot of white Americans who share Mr. Cozzolino’s views simply refuse to admit that their skin color is an advantage in this country, which, morally and legally, it shouldn’t be. Decades after the Civil Rights Act, black Americans continue to have dropout rates, unemployment rates, and arrest and incarceration rates (even when compared to white defendants arrested for the same crimes) that are simply unacceptable in a free society. Until the day when our political, social and economic structures reflect true parity, those of us who care about racial justice and equality will continue to remind America that Black Lives Matter.

OpiniOn Riding the Trump learning curve

T

aking credit is easy. It usually means you are patting yourself on the back for something you did or helped do that went well, or that went the way you desired. In annual reviews, in résumés or on college applications, it’s a great idea to take credit for the ways you contributed, led or facilitated positive outcomes. It’s a way of sharing your potential for future successes with other colleagues, coworkers, bosses By Daniel Dunaief or schools. It’s a fine line because taking credit for, say, the weather on the day of a picnic seems inappropriate and far fetched; or taking credit for something for which your primary role

D. None of the above

was to cheer for a particular outcome also seems inaccurate. The other side of the credit coin is accepting responsibility for mistakes or results that fell short of your expectations or hopes. I read that President-elect Donald Trump has congratulated himself on consumer confidence and the stock market surge since the election. His election could be a contributing factor in the optimism of consumers or in the personified mind of the stock market. I wonder, though, when life for Americans doesn’t go the way we would all like, will he also accept responsibility? Will the man who will be the leader of the free world be able to see his role in problems, learn from mistakes and show the kind of flexibility that other world leaders will consider inspiring or redemptive? When things don’t go the way he or we the people might like, he has blamed others. His favorite target, and a favorite villain for many

presidents over the years, has been the media. It’s an easy target because someone can always disagree with the facts or can come up with an alternative theory for them. I would encourage the man who is so comfortable patting himself on the back — and who seems to be surrounding himself with people who are so supportive of him — to learn to look in the mirror and grow with this enormous job. Learning isn’t easy or necessarily natural. That’s especially true when you’re confident you know more than anyone else, even intelligence officials, and when you rely on your business or street smarts to win every battle. Maybe it’s especially challenging for him to accept that he needs educating as a president, in a job which requires him to be decisive and consistent. At the same time, the presidentelect has this opportunity to be a role model in the way he grows with the job.

I wonder, though, how he would deal with a leader with the same personality, self-confidence and strong will that he showed throughout the election cycle. Would he be able to adjust to the way someone else used his own playbook? Perhaps we have already seen glimpses of that, in the way he admires Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, with whom he seems to be sharing a daily global spotlight. People on both sides of the political aisle probably agree that Trump is a character. It would be a wonderful moment if they all recognized at some point that he also had the kind of character that inspired others to learn, grow and compete against the best in the world. Instead of recognizing and highlighting other people’s shortcomings, failures or deficiencies, Trump might also take a moment to see ways he himself can improve. If he shares his learning curve, he might provide a new route for others to do their best.

brushed against his body. Anyway, I got a call from the doctor four days later with the surprising news that despite its large size, the critter was an engorged deer tick. Not good. We all know that deer ticks can carry Lyme disease and transmit it to humans when they suck up to you. We have had several deer sightings in the neighborhood, especially around a wooded piece of property nearby. To me they are beautiful, graceful animals, and I watch them with admiration as they run. But I certainly don’t appreciate the bugs they can bring and leave behind as a souvenir of their visits. The doctor asked me if I preferred waiting for the blood test, six weeks away, to determine if in fact I had been infected or if I wanted to go on the antibiotic regime immediately. I chose the latter and began taking 100 mg of doxycycline, with lots of water but no food as seriously instructed, every 12 hours. But the story doesn’t

end there. After only two pills, I developed a headache that just wouldn’t quit. This is apparently a not uncommon side effect with this medicine. So I was then transferred to 500 mg of amoxicillin three times a day for at least 20 days and advised also to take a daily probiotic, though not within two to three hours of each other, and to eat lots of yogurt. As we know, that only partially works to offset the distress to the gastrointestinal tract that accompanies regular doses of antibiotics. Plus I have broken out in splotches of itchy rashes, another unhappy side effect. Bottom line: A tick bite can be a nasty thing, bringing along all sorts of minor and even major miseries. So from my experience, I hope you will check your skin regularly, even hard to see places, and not assume that a tick is just another summer pest. Oh, by the way, Happy New Year!

A s-ticky start to 2017

ere we are, in a new year, and I am going to start off with a cautionary tale. I was just about to take a shower when I felt a small bump on my left thigh. I thought that was strange since I hadn’t before felt anything there but it was just beyond my view as I fingered the spot and craned my neck to try and see. Then, to my amazement, By Leah S. Dunaief the bump came off in my hand, revealing itself to be a tick. Ugh! The legs were moving so it was clearly alive and rather large, so I guessed it was a dog tick. With wonderful coincidence, I happened to have an appointment with the dermatologist that afternoon, so

Between you and me

I put the tick into a little plastic baggie and brought him this present. Although I half expected him to just throw it away, he in fact filled out the paperwork and sent it to a lab. Now I am sharing this with you because I suspect that, like me, you thought tick season had ended with the start of winter. I even stopped putting Frontline on my golden retriever, figuring any ticks would have gone into hibernation or been killed off by the colder weather. But I should have realized that the calendar and the weather aren’t always in sync. We have been enjoying fairly mild temperatures for this time of year and, as it turned out, so have the ticks. Now I don’t know if the tick fancied me rather than my dog, or if he just found me as I was walking across the lawn or brushing against a bush while putting out the garbage. However it happened, I was, so to speak, stuck with him until that lucky moment when my fingers
