A proposal to rezone part of Route 347 near the Smith Haven Mall has the town Planning Department mulling over its roster of retail. At public hearings in November, the town board considered proposals to construct a 30,500-square-foot building on Route 347 near Alexander Avenue in Nesconset along with another 3,100-squarefoot building on Middle Country Road, making way for a potential shopping center to house restaurants and small office space, attorney David N. Altman said. But Smithtown’s Assistant Planning Director Dave Flynn approached the town board at a work session Tuesday morning to ask members to consider the application’s potential impacts, given an already robust level of business zoning in town. Flynn said he and the Planning Department staff delved into the potential shopping center when its applicant, Sun Enterprises Inc., asked for a rezoning of the area from residential, single-family to neighborhood business. The department then drafted a memo to the town board rec-

Smithtown’s assistant planning Director David Flynn says a potential shopping center near the Smith haven mall could add to an excess of neighborhood business zoning in the town.
ommending the property be developed into garden apartments instead of retail because of what Flynn cited as a possible overabundance of business zoning in the town. “I felt it was my obligation to speak with you,” Flynn said to Smithtown Supervisor Pat Vecchio (R), Councilman Tom McCarthy (R) and Councilman
Ed Wehrheim (R) at the work session. “If the town board felt this should be explored, I would contact the property owner. It’s hard to measure the damage it would do.” Vecchio, McCarthy and Wehrheim heard Flynn’s considerations for the future zoning of the area, but leaned more on the side of following through
with what the board and the applicants had already started. “The applicant did his due diligence, and I think we should do ours,” McCarthy said. Wehrheim also said he had similar sentiments. “The applicant went through a lot to get to this point,” he said. “And now we SHOPPINg continued on page a12
Town revisits roads after Jorgensen’s arrest By phil corSo
Smithtown Highway Superintendent Glenn Jorgensen pleaded not guilty Wednesday to felony charges accusing him of tampering with public records for a town paving project, Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota said. Jorgensen, 63, of Saint James, was directed to appear in First District Court in Central Islip for his arraignment, where he faced several charges, including tampering with public records, falsifying business records, filing false records, official misconduct and grand larceny, relating to
incidents dating back to Nov. 18, 2014. The district attorney alleged that Jorgensen directed a highway foreman to alter road construction reports to conceal that he had approved a contractor, Suffolk Asphalt Corp of Selden, to pave at least eight Smithtown streets in freezing temperatures in November. The altered records misrepresented the weather conditions during the repaving work, Spota said. Jorgensen’s misdemeanor grand larceny charge also accused him of stealing a public File photo work order for the improper Smithtown highway Superintendent glenn Jorgensen faces charges JORgeNSeN continued on page a12 accusing him of falsifying public records related to a paving project.

DOT taps public to drive study Members of the public will get to weigh in on the future of the Sagtikos-Sunken Meadow Parkway at two New York State Department of Transportation informational meetings next week. The state department is seeking input for a Sagtikos State Parkway/ Sunken Meadow Parkway Operational Study. The goal of the study is to “examine how the roadway functions, identify causes of traffic congestion and accidents and determine how the corridor will function in the future.” According to the DOT, an average of 90,000 vehicles per day use the Sagtikos-Sunken Meadow State Parkway. Residents, businesses, and all interested groups are encouraged to attend and provide input regarding the Sagtikos-Sunken Meadow Parkway Study within the towns of Islip, Babylon, Smithtown and Huntington, the department said in a statement. The meetings will take place on Tuesday, April 14 and Thursday, April 16, 2015. The April 14 meeting is being held at Deer Park High School, 1 Falcon Place, Deer Park, between 6:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. The April 16 meeting is being held at William T.

Barnett said the town has seen a dramatic increase in recycling since penning the Brookhaven deal. And the Lloyd Harbor agreement was not a new discussion either, as Barnett said Smithtown has already finalized similar agreements with the local villages of Asharoken, Nissequogue, Head of Harbor and The Branch. “We’ve gotten a number of calls from residents expressing support for the new program as being more convenient to them,” Barnett said in an earlier interview. “It saves Smithtown money in many ways.” Barnett said Smithtown’s expenses

have gone down nearly $600,000 annually because of single-stream’s benefits. Since joining Brookhaven, Smithtown has been shipping its recyclable waste to the Yaphank facility instead of handling the materials within the town, costing more in labor expenses. The single-stream recycling system, which has been nicknamed the Green Stream Machine, can process 48 tons of material per hour. In June 2014, Brookhaven Town officials announced the town’s recycling rates had increased by nearly 25 percent since the program’s launch in January 2014, therefore saving taxpayers more than $287,000 to date. Romaine said earlier this year that solid waste was an ongoing concern in the town of Brookhaven and singlestream helped to address that, increasing the overall amount of garbage being recycled by nearly 25 percent.

‘I Matter’ fundraiser to honor local children Community-centric project to transform library after several successful North Shore campaigns By BarBara Donlon
A local group that empowers children through character education and art is hosting a celebration and fundraiser event on April 30, where the public can come and see what it is all about. Around 90 Commack, Huntington and Northport youth who participated in the “I Matter” art and character education project that was featured at local libraries in the past year will be honored at the John W. Engeman Theater at 6 p.m. prior to a performance of “A Chorus Line” at 8 p.m. The “I Matter” project is an education and leadership program founded by the Center for Creative Development based in Huntington. It aims to inspire and empower students to make healthy decisions and steer clear of destructive behavior. Several presenters from the project are expected to attend the event, including Rob Goldman, the center’s director; New York State Assemblyman
Andrew Raia (R-East Northport); corporate sponsors and more. The project’s new theme song, “Shine On,” will be debuted by writer and recording artist Alan Semerdjian. Choir members from Huntington schools will be featured on the song. “It’s really bringing the community together,” Raia said in a statement. “We need to uplift the self-confidence of our teens and this is just the perfect program to do that.” Participation in the “I Matter” project allows children to take part in a workshop environment where they share thoughts and feelings face-toface, make photographic portraits of each other and more. The project also prompts public conversation and community involvement to address social issues and drug use. Tickets for the community event can be purchased and donations and sponsorships can also be found by visiting the project’s website www.imatterproject.org/donate.html.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) Does Not Need to Disrupt Your Life Almost one in every four women in the United States have some sort of pelvic floor disorder such as pelvic organ prolapse, and more women are likely to be affected as the population ages. Jennifer Hill, MD, a urologist specializing in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery at the Arthur Smith Institute for Urology, part of North Shore-LIJ Health System, discusses what you need to know about this condition.
What are the risk factors? Risk factors for POP include difficult deliveries, a family history of POP, obesity, advancing age, a prior hysterectomy and conditions that chronically increase intra-abdominal pressure such as asthma, chronic cough or constipation. What is pelvic organ prolapse (POP)? Pelvic organ prolapse refers to the prolapse (drooping) of any of the pelvic floor organs such as the bladder, uterus, vagina, small bowel or rectum. These organs are said to prolapse if they descend into or outside of the vaginal canal or anus. Are there different types of POP? There are several different types of prolapse. These include: • Cystocele — a prolapse of the bladder into the vagina, the most common condition • Uterine prolapse — a prolapse of the uterus into the vaginal canal • Vaginal vault prolapse — prolapse of the vagina • Enterocele — small bowel prolapse • Rectocele — rectum prolapse
What are the symptoms? Many women do not have symptoms and do not require treatment. However, urinary and bowel urgency and frequency, vaginal bulging, and pelvic pain and pressure are all common symptoms of prolapse that may be very bothersome to the patient. What treatments are available? Many women with POP can manage their symptoms conservatively with pelvic floor exercises to tighten and strengthen the pelvic floor, high-fiber diets to prevent constipation, reaching and maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding activities that stress the pelvic muscles, such as heavy lifting.
If conservative management fails, and the pain and discomfort are still present, you may want to consider having surgery for the condition. Often, more than one of these types of surgery are needed at the same time. The types of surgery available include: • Cystoscele repair — for bladder prolapse • Hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) — for uterine prolapse • Rectocele repair — repair of the rectum • Enterocele repair — repair of small bowel prolapsing into the vagina • Vaginal vault repair — suspension of the vaginal vault • Closure of the vagina — for severe procidentia (all pelvic organs protruding from the vagina)
If you or a loved one has symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse, call (516) 734-8500 today to make an appointment with one of our urologists in Suffolk County. For more information, visit NorthShoreLIJ.com/Smith. 115511

Gift of life celebrated at organ donor event By Erin DuEñas
Arleen Buckley ticked off the places she and husband Tom had traveled to before he fell ill. The Port Jefferson couple had visited Italy, Ireland and even China, but a planned trip to Belgium last year had to be canceled after Tom’s battle with polycystic kidney disease — a hereditary condition where cysts develop on the kidneys, leading to the organ’s failure — kept him from traveling. “He was just too sick,” his wife said. “We were lucky we could get him to the corner.” Tom Buckley spent months undergoing dialysis three days a week, but the treatments left him weak. “He wasn’t having a good reaction to the dialysis,” Arleen Buckley said. “I told him we can’t live life like this. It was a tough time.” Arleen Buckley said she couldn’t bear seeing her husband of 43 years so ill. She suggested giving him one of her kidneys to resolve his health issue but he refused. “He felt guilty. He didn’t want me putting my life at risk,” she said. “I told him I wanted to live a nice long life — but with him.” It took months but she eventually convinced her husband to take her kidney, and in September of last year, the couple underwent the surgeries. Arleen Buckley was up and about just three days later, and while her husband’s recovery took much longer — about six months — he said he feels great. They’re even planning a trip to Scandinavia. “I couldn’t go anywhere, not even to the movies,” Tom Buckley said. “Now that I’m
better I can do whatever I want.” On Thursday, April 2, the couple attended the Living Donor Award Ceremony at Stony Brook University Hospital, which honored Arleen Buckley and about 200 other kidney donors. Sponsored by the hospital’s Department of Transplant, kidney recipients presented their living donors with a state medal of honor for the second chance at life. The ceremony’s keynote speaker was Chris Melz of Huntington Station, who donated a kidney in 2009 to his childhood friend Will Burton, who suffered from end-stage renal failure. The surgeries were successful, and Melz now works with the National Kidney Foundation raising awareness for living donors. “I want to spark the drive for people to do good,” he said. “Giving is a beautiful thing.” Arleen Buckley said she was happy to give a kidney to her husband, whom she has known for 50 years. “I told him, ‘When I was 14 years old, I gave you my heart. At 64, I gave you my kidney,’” the loving wife said. Dr. Wayne Waltzer, director of kidney transplantation services and chair of the Department of Urology at Stony Brook University School of Medicine, called kidney transplants a “new lease on life” for patients who are on dialysis. “Transplants restore them,” Waltzer said. “They get back the same sense of well-being they had before they got sick.” According to the National Kidney Foundation, 118,000 Americans are on a waiting
Father is not giving up By Elana GlowaTz
A smile, a swallow or a step mean a lot to Rob Marianetti. It was not long ago that his daughter was unresponsive, following a bathtime incident, and doctors told him there was no hope she would get better. But Marianetti isn’t giving up on Kayla, and coming up on her third birthday she can make some sounds and move her arms and legs. “I’ve been on a mission to get my daughter back,” he said. When she was 17 months old, while Marianetti was at work — for Setauketbased Hurricane Tree Experts — Kayla was having a bath in her Port Jefferson Station home and was left unattended for eight minutes, the father said. She was found floating and unresponsive. Marianetti rushed to the hospital to see Kayla while doctors were working on her. He said he was trying to get into the room with her and was banging on a door to the point where a police officer had to intervene. He learned a few weeks later, he said, that his daughter came back to life while he was banging. “She was blue and she was done. She was done — and she came back.” Kayla spent time at St. Charles Hospital and Stony Brook University Hospital, and Marianetti and his wife — who is no
longer “in the picture,” he said — got the little girl started on different therapies right away, so she would not deteriorate. The whole time Kayla was in the hospital, Marianetti never left her side, the father’s aunt, Susan Calvi, said: “Slept there every day.” Out of all the nation’s experts Marianetti saw, he said, just one, neurologist Dr. Chris Sinclair at John T. Mather Memorial Hospital, encouraged him to fight. Sinclair said he’s seen a similar case of brain injury before, in which a child was perhaps even worse off than Kayla in the beginning but after a couple of years was walking and talking. “So I’ve seen it before but I also know how flexible, in a sense, the brain of a young child is.” Sinclair explained that there are connections between brain cells that allow the cells to communicate with one another, and in Kayla those have become damaged. But those connections can be regrown in a developing brain. “When someone’s so young, [the future] is a lot brighter than it would be for someone who is an adult because the brain is still developing,” Sinclair said. “I think the sky’s the limit for her.” Kayla has multiple therapy appointments each day, whether it’s hyperbaric therapy, which involves putting her in

list for an organ — 96,000 of those wait for a kidney. Roughly 13 people die daily waiting for the organ, the group said. Stephen Knapik, Stony Brook University’s living donor coordinator, said that every 10 minutes someone in need of a kidney is added to that list. He called it an honor to work with donors who keep the list from growing. “I’ve never been in a room with so many superheroes in my life,” Knapik said. “The greatest gift you can give isn’t a boat or a car, it’s the gift of life.” Waltzer said that donating a kidney involves meeting certain criteria including compatible blood groups and matching body tissues between donor and recipient, as well as ensuring that the recipient has no antibodies that will work against the trans-

planted organ. He said that while the surgery is sophisticated, he called the science and medicine an incredible achievement. “The immunosuppressive therapy is so good and the medication so effective that you can override any mismatches,” he said. This allows for donors to give to loved ones that are not related by blood. With the most active renal transplant program on Long Island, Stony Brook has done 1,500 transplants since 1981. Waltzer said that donors are doing an “amazing service,” not just to their recipient but also to one of the thousands of people who are on the waiting list for a kidney. “There is a shortage of organs,” he said. “By donating, you are giving a chance to someone else on that waiting list.”

an oxygen-rich environment; physical therapy, to move her toward sitting up, standing and walking; vision therapy, as neurological issues have made her legally blind, even though her eyes themselves are fine; or speech therapy, which is used both to teach her to communicate and to eat on her own. “By me doing all this stuff, it’s friggin’ working, man,” Marianetti said. Kayla has stood up, laughed, swallowed a small amount of pudding and taken a few steps. “Now remember, she couldn’t move a year ago. … I have hope.” One big hurdle for Marianetti, however, is money. He’s gone through his savings,
he said, and Kayla’s therapy appointments cost $8,000 a month. Then there’s other medical costs, as well as living expenses like food, diapers and electricity. The treatments are expensive, the dad said, but “how can I not continue what I’m doing when she’s making progress?” He set up a fundraising page, at www. gofundme.com/n19qgc, to ask for help. As of Wednesday morning, the fund had reached $18,000. His goal is to have Kayla at least be able to walk, talk, eat and see on her own. “I’m not leaving her like this,” Marianetti said. “I’m going until either she gets better or I die.”

Transit-oriented development is an L.I. tradition Your turn
BY Dave Kapell
One of the strategies being widely discussed as a means of revitalizing the Long Island economy is the creation of transit-oriented developments, especially in downtowns served by the Long Island Rail Road. These developments are much needed and would serve multiple purposes — increasing housing options, enhancing downtown areas and providing places to live and work with easy access to and from New York City. But they are not new to Long Island. Greenport on the North Fork was a transit-oriented development in the mid-19th century and thus underscores the potential that this long-standing tradition still offers Long a train pulls into the Stony Brook long Island Rail Road Station.

building the Fast Track would relieve the problem and generate 14,000 new jobs, $5.6 billion in additional gross regional product, and $3 billion in additional personal income by 2035, 10 years after its completion. The Long Island Rail Road remains an extraordinary resource, but it needs to be thought of again as a two-way street. We also need to think beyond the autodependent suburban model to a future where young people, who are the workforce of that future, have the option to live on Long Island or in the city and have easy transit access to jobs in either place. Greenport knows the value of transit-oriented development arguably as well as any community on Long Island, because ferry, bus and rail facilities continue to power its reputation as a walkable village where people can live, shop, be entertained and get to work without driving. If Long Island now seizes on this time-honored track to success, the concept may well become fundamental to the revitalization of the region’s economy as well. Dave Kapell, a resident of Greenport, served as mayor from 1994 to 2007. He is now a consultant to the Rauch Foundation, which publishes the Long Island Index.

Budget backs repowering State officials compel LIPA to study local plant upgrades By Elana Glowatz & Rohma aBBas
The Long Island Power Authority must study the area’s aging power plants with an eye toward upgrading the facilities, according to a provision of the next New York State budget. Language that Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) and state legislators have agreed upon requires the utility to “perform an engineering, environmental … and cost feasibility analysis and study” of upgrading — also known as repowering — the plants in Port Jefferson, Northport and Island Park. The focus will be on using more efficient and environmentally friendly technology at the plants. Those three sites have been on shaky ground because they are old and using outdated technology. The Port Jefferson and Northport host communities have feared losing essential property taxes from the plants, which would happen if the plants were to reach the ends of their useful lives without being repowered. “We are extremely proud that our representatives and our lobbying efforts are working toward a repowered plant in [Port Jefferson],” village Mayor Margot Garant said in an email. “We always believed this was the best repurposing of
TBR
our site, and in the best interest of the ratepayers of [Long Island].” The utility must begin studying Port Jefferson and Island Park no later than Oct. 1 and must start working on the second study in Northport by October 2018, according to the budget language. The studies must be completed and presented to the LIPA board of trustees and the department of public service no later than 18 months after they begin. LIPA will repower the plants if it determines, based on the studies, “that repowering any such generating facility is in the best interests of its ratepayers and will enhance the authority’s ability to provide a more efficient, reliable and economical supply of electric energy in its service territory, consistent with the goal of improving environmental quality.” Assemblyman Andy Raia (R-East Northport) said the studies “could change the whole tax certiorari issue.” Huntington Town and the NorthportEast Northport school district have been battling LIPA over the value of that property, with the utility arguing the plant is grossly overassessed and filing to be reimbursed for taxes overpaid as a result. Town Supervisor Frank Petrone (D) has extended an offer to LIPA to freeze its

tax assessment if it repowers Northport. “Northport and East Northport are looking down the barrel of a gun,” Raia said Tuesday, “and if they repowered Northport that whole case would go away.” Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) said in a statement that the study requirement will be included in the state budget “since LIPA did not follow through on their [previous] promises” to complete economic feasibility studies on the aging plants. PSEG Long Island, the private utility
media
that has taken over management of LIPA, was on board with the repowering studies this week. “After careful study last year, we determined that there was no need for additional generation on Long Island until, at least, 2024,” PSEG Long Island spokesman Jeff Weir said in an email. “We wholeheartedly embrace this process because all we want is to implement the lowest cost and most reliable solutions for our customers on Long Island and in the Rockaways.”

PEOPLE Commack kids create voice-activated desktop
Commack High School science research students are working hard to make a difference in this world, using the power of their young minds to seek solutions that will help others and perhaps change the future for us all. One specific group of young engineers, Dan Cho, Brianna Delgado, Abi Anand, Melike Akoglu and Anoop Singh, designed and built a device created specifically for a man with limited mobility, Glen Campbell, a quadriplegic with limited mobility, is an attorney who needed better access to computers and documents via a voice-activated control system so he could work more independently. The students used motors, sprockets, chain, spur gears, an Arduino microcontroller and programmed commands to create a customized desktop that is voice-controlled. Glen can move the computer, book
stand and telephone stand easily now, increasing his independence, and calls the office top project a “great device and a great tool” that has enhanced his limited mobility in a very positive way. This project won an Honorable Mention in the SourceAmerica Design Challenge, a national engineering competition to design workplace technology for people with disabilities. High school and college students partner with an organization that employs people with disabilities or an individual with a disability to invent a process, device, system or software for a more productive work environment. This service learning opportunity develops engineering, communication, writing, math, presentation and social skills while helping the community and competing for cash prizes. A video of the office top project is available on YouTube.

KPHs’s Marcone named 2015 Coca-Cola scholar Zachray Marcone, an exceptional senior at Kings Park High School, has been recognized as one of the country’s most outstanding high school leaders by the CocaCola Scholars Foundation and has been awarded a $20,000 college scholarship. Zachary has demonstrated superior leadership and dedication to his community and was selected from a pool of nearly 103,000 initial applicants. On April 16, Zachary Marcone will join other Coca-Cola Scholars as they travel to Atlanta, the international headquarters of The Coca-Cola Company, for Scholars Weekend. During this four-day weekend, the Scholars will participate in a Leadership Development Institute to further develop their leadership skills, tour local landmarks, engage with former Coca-Cola Scholars and participate in a group community service project. The 2015 Class of Coca-Cola Scholars will also be the guests of honor at the 27th annual Scholars Banquet, where representatives from the Coca-Cola system, educators, local dignitaries and friends of the Scholars Foundation will celebrate them. Author, financial advisor, motivational speaker and television host Suze Orman will serve as the keynote speaker. In addition to receiving a $20,000 scholarship, Zachary Marcone will be welcomed into a vibrant and growing family of alumni that fosters lasting connections with its members. In 2006, a Coca-Cola Scholar Alumni Advisory Board was created to build on the efforts of the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation through networking, mentoring, collaborations and friendships in order to make an even greater positive impact together.
Smithtown’s Contess is Chancellor’s Award winner
Nicholas Contess of Smithtown, a student at Suffolk County Community College, is an honored recipient of the 2015 Chancellor’s Award for Student Excellence. The award was bestowed at an Albany ceremony hosted by SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher on April 2. The Chancellor’s Award for Student Excellence was created in 1997 to recognize students who have best demonstrated and have been recognized for the integration of academic excellence with accomplishments in the areas of leadership, athletics, community service, creative and performing arts, campus involve-

ment or career achievement. Each year, SUNY campus presidents establish a selection committee, which reviews the accomplishments of exemplary students. Nominees are then forwarded to the chancellor’s office for a second round of review. Finalists are then recommended to the chancellor. Each recipient receives a framed certificate and medallion, which is traditionally worn at commencement. “The students selected for this honor are role models within the college and SUNY community,” said Suffolk County Community College President Dr. Shaun L. McKay.

Smithtown event explores Caleb Smith’s past Librarian slated to lead lecture including 17th-century tales of popular Caleb Smith State Park Preserve George Washington in the park? What is the history of the road? Caleb, a thorn in whose side? Did he run the gauntlet? Why was he robbed? These are some of the anecdotes that will be part of an inside look at the history of Smithtown’s Caleb Smith State Park Preserve on Sunday, April 19, at 1 p.m. at the preserve on Jericho Turnpike. The free event will be presented by Friends of Caleb Smith Preserve. Preregistration is required by calling 265-1054. Cathy Ball, supervising librarian of the Long Island Room at the Smithtown Library, will speak and illustrate, with artifacts, historical stories about the 543-acre preserve and the families of Caleb Smith. The original house, which is located on the preserve, was built in 1753 by Smith — a great-grandson of Smithtown’s founder Richard Smythe — and his father Daniel Smith II. “I have been thinking a lot about Caleb, his children and grandchildren, and the history of the park and the roads within the park and their purpose in earlier times,” said Ball, noting that she will

discuss the effects of the Revolutionary War on Smith and his family. She will also delve into their lives, the mills, and the property’s subsequent history as the Wyandanch Club before becoming a state park and preserve. Since 2004, Ball, a resident of Setauket, has worked in the Long Island Room, which contains 8,000 books and 200 boxes of documents, including original manuscripts from the 17th century. Working alongside local historian and archivist Caren Zatyk, Ball conducts programs and exhibits, supplemented with the archives. Currently both of them are working with the New York State Department of Transportation on the development of pocket parks for cyclists along Route 347 in Smithtown, providing information and historical photo displays for each park that will depict the history of that particular area. The Long Island Room brings in a “continual stream of researchers and authors from long distance researching family and local history,” Ball said. — Phil Corso

are going to change our minds?” At its Nov. 20 meeting, the town board heard public hearings to consider the shopping center, which Altman said would create anywhere from 20 to 50 construction jobs and 20 to 50 permanent, full-time jobs. The applicant was asking for the rezoning of three separate lots into one business lot, which Altman said could increase the overall real property taxes generated for the site from $25,000 a year
to anywhere from $180,000 to $225,000 each year. Frank Filiciotto, a hired civil engineer and traffic planner, also spoke to the board at the November meeting and said the potential development would draw from existing traffic in the area and wouldn’t significantly impact the number of cars traveling along Route 347. “It’s important to note that all three driveways will be right-in, right-out driveways,” he said. “There’s no conflicting left-turning maneuvers in and out of these sites. So what it does is, it draws from the traffic that’s already on the streets.”
repaving and taking the official document home. District attorney detectives found the records in Jorgensen’s Hope Place residence, under his bed, Spota said. “State department of transportation construction standards dictate asphalt must not be applied to a road surface in freezing temperatures and, in fact, the town’s own engineer has said repaving in freezing weather would result in the asphalt falling apart,” Spota said. “The repaving of a residential street doesn’t happen that often and when it does, residents are paying for a job done correctly, not a faulty repaving that will soon need pothole repair work.” Both Jorgensen and Anthony M. La Pinta, a Hauppauge-based attorney representing him, did not return calls seeking comment. Smithtown Supervisor Patrick Vec-
chio (R) said the town would be taking steps in the coming months to investigate the roads Jorgensen had paved and determine whether or not they were sustainable despite the cold weather. Town engineers would be inspecting the roads and hiring a firm and experts within the field to investigate, he said. “There’s not much we can do. We just have to make sure the roads are viable,” he said. “They’re perfectly good roads. But will they be viable in months to come? We’ll see.” Jorgensen has authority over 142 employees with a $30 million annual operating budget to pay for snow removal and the paving, drainage and maintenance of roughly 450 miles of roads and curbs in the town. He was first elected in 2010 to serve as superintendent, but has worked in the department for 37 years in various capacities, including as a foreman. He left retirement in 2009 when he was elected superintendent and was reelected in 2013.

OPINION
An anti-Common Core rally in Smithtown.
Stock photo
EDITORIAL Put down the pitchforks
opting students out of state standardized tests has become a hot topic, and it’s a decision that should rest in the hands of parents, not school leaders. recently, Comsewogue School district officials had threatened to consider not administering the tests altogether if Gov. Andrew Cuomo (d) and the state education department did not acquiesce on a list of demands, one of which was to stop weighing student test scores so heavily in teacher and administrator evaluations. But the district clammed up on the measure after its attorney intervened. in addition, the NYSUT union, which represents teachers across the state, has called for a mass opt-out. State law comes down hard on actions like this: Any school-board members or other officials like superintendents who willfully violate state education regulations — such as by refusing to administer a required assessment — risk being removed from office by the education commissioner, and state aid could be withheld from the district. At the heart of the matter is a battle over local control of our school districts. While local officials should be consulted when it comes to shaping state education regulations and standards, there must be some degree of state standardization in education to ensure that our programs sufficiently educate kids. it’s wrong for administrators and school officials to politicize a high-emotion situation — the opt-out movement — in a way that could be detrimental to students. in a school-sponsored, massive opt-out, the ones who face the greatest risk are the students — officials may put their jobs at stake, but the kids’ entire futures could hang in the balance if the state pulls education aid from a district that heavily relies upon it, or if otherwise competent school board members and administrators are kicked out of office. Let us also pause to think about how adult behavior affects our kids. This paper has previously editorialized about how the commotion over the Common Core and state testing has negatively affected children — students see and hear their parents’ and teachers’ reactions, and many mimic that fear and anxiety when they otherwise would not have had such emotional reactions to tests and classes. At some point, we have to ask ourselves if this is the kind of behavior we want to teach our kids. Calling for change is one thing, but screaming for it is another. Let’s not play politics. Above all, let’s keep cool.
Smithtown Highway Superintendent Glenn Jorgensen, right, is accused of falsifying public records.
Holes in leadership To The ediTor: As chairman of the Smithtown democratic Committee, i am writing to demand the resignation of republican Smithtown highway Superintendent Glenn Jorgensen. enough is enough! it’s time for him to walk away before he embarrasses himself, and the people of Smithtown, any further. Mr. Jorgensen’s recent indictment on four felony charges and his sexual harassment lawsuit goes far beyond the everyday incompetence we have come to expect from Mr. Jorgensen. he must resign immediately. The fact that Smithtown taxpayers are still paying his salary is an outrage.
April fools
To The ediTor: With April Fools’ day on the mind, it appears that the meat, egg and dairy industries have been playing us for fools all year-round. Their more remarkable hoaxes include “California’s happy cows,” “Free-range chickens” and “humane slaughter.” All lies. Less fun is the stuff they never talk about. Like the hundreds of millions of chickens crammed seven into a cage designed for one, unable to move or spread
File photo
Actually, the solution to the Jorgensen problem may be to not replace him with a new highway superintendent. This scandal should be taken as an opportunity to examine the entire structure of the town government. it’s time for the residents of Smithtown to consider if we’d all be better served by an appointed director of public works rather than another elected highway superintendent. After all, in recent months both Supervisor Pat Vecchio and Town Councilman Bob Creighton have each proposed different amendments to town statutes that would consolidate departments and eliminate potentially unnecessary elected positions. however, because of the dysfunction in Town hall and
the poisonous rivalries that exist within the Smithtown republican Party, no real effort has been made to consider the needs of the people of Smithtown and to make the tough decisions regarding the size and scope of the town’s departments. it has become increasingly clear to every resident of Smithtown that highway Superintendent Glenn Jorgensen is incompetent and needs to go. Are the rest of the elected republicans in Smithtown government competent enough to see that he does?
their wings. or their hundreds of millions of male counterparts ground up live at birth and fed to other chickens or just dumped into plastic garbage bags to suffocate slowly. or the miserable breeding sows producing millions of piglets per year while trapped in tiny steel cages. All in the spirit of year-round April Fools’ day, the meat industry has even developed a whole dictionary of fun terms to fool unwary consumers. Those filthy cesspools of animal waste that poison downwind
neighbors with putrid odors? They call them “lagoons.” And to make sure that kids don’t confuse the pig f lesh on their plates with “Babe” or “Wilbur,” they call it “pork.” Ah, those meat industry folks are such kidders. But they won’t be fooling American consumers much longer. Anyway, happy April Fools’ day, everyone!

Breaking ourselves down to build back up
D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief
vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com
E
very defeat, rejection, or failure can be like a drop of ice water on the back of our necks. We often can’t brush those droplets away and they seep into us, weighing us down, causing our feet to shuffle and shoulders to slump. The self-esteem bashing moments in a week, month, or year can build up, turning us into a balled-up, wet rag in the corner
of a dark room. Certainly, the sunlight and warmth of spring can dry some of that out, as the chirping of newly hatched birds, the sight of children chasing after a ball on a playground and the scent of fresh flowers can evaporate the dreaded droplets. And yet, that’s often not enough. We sometimes need more to turn ourselves into ice-water-resistant creatures who can tackle any assignment, avoid obstacles, or remain undeterred in the face of significant opposition. Where do we find this relief? Some get it from exercise, where they perspire out those metaphorical drops of ice water. As they push themselves along the pavement or across glistening fields, they generate momentum, release endorphins, and become like the Little Engine That Could, remembering that a healthy dose of believing in themselves works. Others get it from talking on
the phone, writing in a diary or a blog, escaping to the movies, diving into books, or sharing a laugh with friends they’ve known for years. What we sometimes need in our lives is a catharsis. You remember that Greek word for that moment when someone releases strong emotions, obtaining relief at the same time? We learned about this some time when we were in middle or high school. Recently, my middle school daughter received an assignment that seemed like a confusing and challenging juggling act. She finished George Orwell’s “Animal Farm.” Her language arts teacher asked his students to find a song in which they saw an overlap with a theme from the book. They also had to relate that theme to their lives. When my daughter came home from her first day of these presentations, she described in detail, how two of the four presenters broke down in tears as they shared their stories. In
other classes, several students, including one of the untouchable “popular kids,” cried in front of his class as well. One of the students described his frustration with his frequent movement from one school to another as his parents’ jobs required starting over again every year or so. He looked out at the classroom, his teary eyes revealing his deep discomfort, and said he was sure no one in the room would be his friend for longer than the short time he’d be in town. He was resigned to the fact that he’d be a sad ghost someone might remember at graduation. Another student shared the challenge of dealing with an impossible relative. This person pushed away any connection to a family she used to have, slamming the door, literally and physically, on anyone from her past who dared approach her. The disillusionment her father felt was magnified in her. As my daughter thought of
What we sometimes need in our lives is a catharsis.
her assignment, her eyes welled up as well when she thought of the moment when something promising turned tragic. She had a spectacularly close connection with a young, vibrant first grade teacher whose life ended all too soon after a cancer diagnosis. Even as my daughter described her feelings, I could see the small ice droplets that landed so hard on the back of her neck in elementary school, as they found an exit through her eyes. She will always remember that loss, but the catharsis more than five years later provided some relief.

Lost art – and memories – reclaimed
between you and me by leah S. DuNaief
vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com
“Woman in Gold” is based on a true story. It is also eerily similar to another true story to which I am privy. The movie, currently playing in limited release and shortly to move into local theaters, is about an octogenarian Jewish woman who struggles to reclaim paintings looted from her family by the Nazis a halfcentury earlier. Dame Helen Mirren plays Maria Altmann, an Austrian
who barely escaped with her new husband before the jaws of Nazi death clamped down on Jews and dissidents following Austria’s annexation by Germany in 1938. Ultimately, they lived out their lives in Los Angeles, but much of their extended family stayed and perished in the Holocaust. Their possessions were confiscated, including five paintings by Gustav Klimt. Those paintings, including “Portrait of Adele BlochBauer,” became Austrian icons; but for Maria Altmann, the portrait was simply of her Aunt Adele. The loss of those paintings came to symbolize the terrible loss of her immediate family, her home and her world. As the years went by, claims of looted property began to surface. In the 1990s, Maria Altmann tried to reclaim her family’s art through the early channels for such action in Austria. She encouraged the son of a friend, a young and struggling lawyer, to represent her. He is the grandson of one of Austria’s
most famous musicians, Arnold Schoenberg. He is also an American with little emotional connection to his grandfather’s country, nor Altmann’s cause, but he was initially attracted to the fight for the potential monetary windfall. Their battles with the Austrian government continued for a decade, during which they were aided by an Austrian journalist. In a similar story, my friend Alice was also born in Austria and lived with her parents and brother in Vienna until the Nazi annexation. Her father was a lawyer, and when warned by one of his clients that he was on the round-up list for the next morning, he managed to escape with his immediate family to the west. They, too, eventually arrived in America, having left all their possessions behind in their hasty flight. One of their pieces of art was an original drawing by Picasso. Alice and her brother, now the rightful heirs, determined to enter claim for their stolen art, especially the most

valuable piece by Picasso. Their claim dragged on through the courts for the better part of a decade, roughly at the same time as that of Maria Altmann although much less in the news. Remarkably, they too were joined in their struggle by an Austrian journalist, whose efforts ultimately helped make the claim successful. Like Altmann and E. Randol Schoenberg, Alice and her brother, against their will, returned to Vienna for hearings. It was an emotional journey back to the streets of their childhood for them. The film does justice to Altmann’s terrible memories with repeated cuts back in time to the growing atrocities of the late 1930s. There is another interesting parallel when the claims succeeded. In the movie, the primary Austrian antagonist asks for some sort of shared ownership from Maria Altmann. His suggestion is curtly dismissed by Mirren. As my friend Alice was handed the framed Picasso

Their possessions were confiscated, including five paintings by Gustav Klimt.
by an Austrian official, she was told sarcastically that she’d “probably just sell it for the money!” to which she replied, “And that is now none of your business.” She did not sell it, but rather gave it a position of honor in her Washington Heights apartment. It was, for her, the tiniest satisfaction from a bitterly lost world. Maria Altmann did sell the painting of Adele Bloch-Bauer to Ronald Lauder, Estée Lauder-heir and owner of the Neue Gallery of Austrian Art on 86th St. and Fifth Ave. in New York. She used the money to help Schoenberg establish his law practice and to help both family members and charities close to her heart.

She didn’t walk anybody and our short stop [Furr] played better than I’ve ever seen her play. She’s a four-year varsity player.” Smithtown West traveled to Riverhead on Wednesday while Newfield hosted Copiague, but results for the games were not available by press time.
