Fort Salonga cafe serving up coffee for good cause By Victoria espinoza Morning routines for residents in Huntington are about to get a little sweeter. Fort Salonga’s Cause Café is the newest coffee shop working to bring jobs to young adults with cognitive and developmental disabilities. Stacey Wohl, founder and co-owner of the café, has run the Our Coffee with a Cause coffee brand business with her two children, Brittney and Logan, since it was founded in 2012. Cause Café will sell its coffee, as well as breakfast foods, sandwiches and more. Brittney and Logan, who both have autism, were named co-owners of the business in November 2015, and will both be working at the coffee shop. The shop is a crucial resource for young adults with disabilities, the owner said. “I started talking to other parents and they had no job opportunities for their young adults with autism,” she said in an interview on Tuesday. Although programs are set up for internships to work with nearby businesses, Wohl said they don’t translate into actual jobs. “They fall off the cliff at about 22 years of age,” she said. Aside from the kitchen staff and the counter manager, Wohl said every other employee at Cause Café is working with some form of a disability. “I wanted a retail place where people saw the young adults with special needs

and they were visible in the community,” Wohl said. “There are some companies who hire the disabled, but they are behind the scenes. [Here] they are right alongside with typical individuals in the community, doing some of the same jobs. They are involved in every aspect from the beginning.” The founder said she is hoping to inspire other businesses to hire the disabled, and also expand this store into a chain, to create as many job opportunities as possible. “I could open up 10 stores right now with the amount of people that want a job,” Wohl said. “I have parents calling me every day all the time, emailing, Facebook, calling. There are no jobs for kids with special needs.” According to Disability Statistics, in 2014, 34.6 percent of Americans between the ages of 21-36 were employed. In New York, out of about 1.1 million residents with disabilities, only about 351,000 were employed. The United States Census Bureau said between 2008 and 2010, individuals with disabilities accounted for 9.4 million, or 6 percent, of the approximate 155.9 million employed citizens. In terms of what this coffee shop will offer to residents’ palettes, the choices are international and diverse. “I always wanted to go to France, so France came to me,” Wohl said of the theme of the shop and many of the items on the menu. She said the store is high-

Andrew Popkin, sous-chef at Cause Café, said that the menu features all homemade items that are both healthy and delicious. Popkin said the menu will have weekly seasonal specials, and some of the highlights for him include the buttermilk pancakes with maple butter syr-

Cause Café is located at 1014 Fort Salonga Road and is open Tuesday through Sunday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. starting this Saturday, May 7.

North Shore donates 435 pounds of pet food at drive By Phil Corso Suffolk County Legislator Robert Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) said he was most appreciative of the support he received from the residents who donated to his pet food drive to benefit Baxter’s Pet Pantry at Long Island Cares Inc. In addition, many customers at the IGA Markets in Fort Salonga and East Northport contributed items to the bins stationed at the stores, as well as from Splash and Dash Pet Groomerie in St. James. “Everyone was incredibly generous in donating cat and dog food/treats and bird

seed, as well as other items for the pet pantry at LI Cares. I am thrilled that we collected 435 pounds as well as a donation of $100 from a local resident,” Trotta said. Founded by the late Harry Chapin, Long Island Cares is based out of Hauppauge and works to bring together all available resources for the benefit of the hungry on Long Island, the organization said. Long Island Cares also works to provide various humanitarian needs for the greater Long Island community, providing food when and where it’s needed while promoting self-sufficiency and public education.

Suffolk Republicans resist Bellone’s water quality fix BY Phil CorSo Suffolk Republicans said the county executive’s water quality plan stinks. County Executive Steve Bellone (D) unrolled a proposal last week that would allow voters to decide whether or not they would pay an extra $1 per 1,000 gallons of water to address nitrogen pollution in drinking and surface water across the region. And while some environmentalists heralded the plan, Suffolk Republicans said it would be unfair to the taxpayer and cost more than what Bellone might lead residents to believe. Suffolk County Legislator Kevin McCaffrey (R-Lindenhurst) joined with other members of the Republican Caucus last Wednesday at the county headquarters in Hauppauge to speak against Bellone’s proposal. Standing with him was Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga), who accused Bellone of using the water rate increase as a source of revenue to help balance the county’s $1.2 billion debt. “This is yet another attempt by Steve Bellone to get into the pockets of taxpayers,” Trotta said. “It is a ploy to use water protection as a means of covering for his mismanagement of county finances.” His proposal would establish a water quality protection fee that would fund the conversion of homes from outdated septic systems to active treatment systems, the county executive said. He estimated the $1 surcharge would generate roughly $75 million in revenue each year to be solely dedicated to reducing nitrogen pollution — and still keep Suffolk County’s water rates nearly 40 percent lower than the national average. The funds collected would be used in conjunction with other funding, such as from Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) $383 million initiative to support clean water infrastructure. Residents living in countless communities like Kings Park, which Trotta

represents, have been on the county’s radar as locations in desperate need of a septic makeover. And while the county Republicans said they agreed that clean water must remain an important talking point in Suffolk, they argued that charging more for water might burden those residents already paying more for sewer upgrades. “Residents in my district and districts around Suffolk County have been paying for a sewer district for over 30 years,” McCaffrey said. “The ‘Bellone Water Tax’ would make these residents pay for the same thing twice.” Suffolk Legislator Leslie Kennedy (RNesconset) said residents would not enjoy equal benefits from the proposal and, therefore, she was against it outright. “At this point I see this as nothing more than a tax increase on water usage for all,” Kennedy said. “Some may never see the benefit of sewers or nitrogen reduction cesspools in their lifetime.” The Republican Caucus is committed to fighting what they said was an unfair and unjust tax on Suffolk County residents and called on community leaders, elected officials and taxpayers to stand up for residents in Suffolk County and put an end to the Bellone Water Tax proposal. But not everyone stood opposed to the water quality initiative. In an interview, George Hoffman of the Setauket Harbor Task Force said Bellone’s plan would benefit Suffolk County for decades to come. Working so closely with some of the county’s most coveted bodies of water, Hoffman said the county needed to act, and fast. “It’s pretty clear that our harbors and bays are struggling. Until that’s addressed, there’s going to be nothing we can do as a harbor group to be better,” he said. “We can prevent runoffs, but we can’t prevent the seepage from the homes along the shore. What we like about the initiative is it puts water quality at the top of the agenda.”

UNDER THE SEA

Stony Brook University students took a break from drowning in their studies to continue a storied tradition of dumping makeshift vessels made out of cardboard into a campus pond, hoping they would stay afloat. The Roth Pond Regatta shipped off its 27th consecutive year at the university on Friday as a way for students to blow off steam before finals start next week. Each year, students cram into their homemade boats, made of cardboard, duct tape and paint, and race across the 200-yard body of water at the center of campus. More than 3,000 people make their way through the regatta each year, a university spokeswoman said. This year’s special theme for the race was “under the sea and far beyond,” with some of the nearly 40 boats including the S.S. Leaky Leakey, the S.S. Free Willy, and the Titanic itself.

YOUR COLLEGE FUTURE

A major will not decide the fate of your career Your turn

BY RYan DeVito You are not defined by your college major. High school students often struggle under the pressure of not only choosing a college but also pre-selecting a major that will lead to a certain career. Fortunately, there is no definite pathway to most jobs. A college major is simply a medium for greater exploration of something. With few exceptions, college curricula are designed to expose students to a wide variety of coursework. The major itself can constitute as little as one quarter of a student’s credits over the course of their college career. Those credit hours are focused on one particular field of interest that may or may not have any bearing on a student’s future career goals. I majored in political science in college. Instead of viewing my college experience as a means for securing a job after graduation, I approached college as an opportunity to learn widely. Political science was, and still is, interesting to me, so I chose to focus my studies in that field. However, I never had any inten-

tion of pursuing any of the assumed paths of a political science major: law school, political campaigning or lobbying. Political science formed the foundation of my college education, but it in no way defines who I am or where I hope to take my career. My story isn’t uncommon, either. College graduates nationwide are increasingly departing from their college majors to pursue jobs that are sometimes completely unrelated. After all, the modern economy is constantly changing and the opportunity to discover new passions and interests is ever expanding. High school students may be surprised to learn how little bearing a college major has on a lifetime trajectory. Medical doctors are often examples of how your college major can be unrelated to your endgame. An increasing number of medical students have undergraduate degrees that are outside of the sciences, and many medical schools look for candidates with nonscience backgrounds. Why? Because medical schools want to produce well-rounded doctors who can better connect with their patients. This is an age when people need to be adaptable. Essentially gone are the days when you could graduate from college and assume that a lifetime job would be waiting for you. Instead, today’s college students need to be versatile and innovative. Not only is the job landscape constantly changing, but so are your personal interests. In a widely referenced statistic, the average young person today changes careers more than three times in their lifetime. That’s careers, not jobs. A college major should allow you to feed a passion. Selecting a major based on career prospects is a losing proposition. And what

new jobs in new industries are constantly coming up. there is no college major that fits to these yet-to-exist jobs, so students can take comfort that their success is not bound by their decision to study art history or physics. really matters is not your major but your drive. The research of economists Stacy Dale and Alan Krueger suggests that college major is much less important than the student’s inherent ability, motivation and ambition. Studying art history or horticulture are not death sentences for your future. Just the opposite is true if you are motivated to search out the opportunities you want. Also, every experience can be translated into a desirable job skill. From interpersonal communication to organization to management, any major can be effectively pitched to be a desirable package for potential employers.

High school and college students shouldn’t feel as though their future is at stake when they choose a major. Rather, they should think about how they can use their academic interests to reach their goals. There is no set path. With some inventiveness and innovation, today’s students can create opportunity regardless of what they study in college. Ryan DeVito is a Miller Place native and a graduate of SUNY Geneseo. DeVito is a counselor at High Point University and also started his own college advising company, ScholarScope, to help Long Island students and their families.

sports Kings Park can’t overcome tough Mattituck team Amid a rain and wind-whipped field Tuesday, the Kings Park girls’ lacrosse team struggled to find a rhythm and, as a result, the Kingsmen fell 15-1 to Greenport/Southold/Mattituck on their home field. Mattituck capitalized on Kings Park’s early mistakes, as the team continued to win the draw, force turnovers and scoop up the ground balls off bad passes, leading to 10 unanswered goals by the end of the first half. By the 10th goal, which came at the 3:05 mark, the seconds began to tick away off the now-running clock, regardless of the referees blowing the whistle. In the second half, Mattituck mustered up five more goals, while Kings Park junior Jillian Winwood scored the lone goal for her team, off an assist from classmate Shannon Savage. Freshman goalkeeper Lexie Kotsailidis made five saves between the pipes. With the loss, the Kingsmen fall to 6-5 in Division II. The team has three games left this season, against Shoreham-Wading River, Center Moriches and Hauppauge. Kings Park will travel to ShorehamWading River today, Thursday, for a

Above, Victor Ochi, on right, races toward the quarterback; and, below, sacks an opposing quarterback in games for Stony Brook last season.

Stony Brook’s Victor Ochi signs with NFL’s Baltimore Ravens Victor Ochi realized his dream on Saturday evening when the senior member of the 2015 Stony Brook University football team signed an undrafted free agent contract with the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League. If he makes the team, Ochi would join former Seawolves teammate Will Tye as an active player in the NFL. Tye, the first SBU graduate to play on the big field, earned NFL AllRookie honors as a tight end on the New York Giants roster in 2015 after making the squad as an undrafted free agent. Ochi, a 2015 All-America selection and the Colonial Athletic Association co-Defensive Player of the

Year, led the nation with 13 sacks through the regular season and was top in the CAA with 16.5 tackles for a loss. For the 2015 season, the Valley Stream native recorded 47 tackles in the Seawolves’ 10 games, including his 13 sacks — the second most in a single season in the program’s history. He also had four games with at least two sacks, including 3.5 against the University of New Hampshire. During the 2015 season, Ochi became Stony Brook’s career leader in both sacks and tackles for loss. He collected 32.5 sacks and 49 tackles for a loss in four seasons. In addition, he made a splash at the 2016 East-West Shrine game

Senior commits to college Smithtown West senior Katie Wood signed a national letter of intent to play volleyball at La Salle University in Pennsylvania. At La Salle, Wood will join the Division I Explorers, who compete in the Atlantic 10 Conference against teams like the University of Dayton, George Washington University and the University of Rhode Island. La Salle University volleyball coach Caitlin Rimgaila said, “Katie is an excellent addition to the La Salle volleyball program. She is a dedicated and driven competitor, and we will look to her to bring her setter abilities and strong leadership skills to the court beginning in her freshman year.” Wood expects to compete for the starting setter position for La Salle this fall. She selected La Salle over offers from Syracuse University, Towson University and Canisius College.

Wood graduates Smithtown West as the single season assist record holder with 683, and the career-assist leader with 1,717. A two-year captain of the varsity team, Wood was an integral member of the Bulls as they competed in the playoffs. Among Wood’s honors she was named to the All-Tournament team three times, All-Classification twice and All-County once during her prolific volleyball career. In addition to her being a member of the volleyball team, Wood also represented the Garden Empire Volleyball Association region at a USA Volleyball national prospect camp this past December. She was a captain for the GEVA team that competed in an international invitational volleyball tournament, while she was holding down the setter position for the Bulls’ team.

Queen Anne Emerging in the Victorian era, the style features inventive floor plans and decorative chimneys. Contemporary Unmistakably modern, this style has odd-sized windows and little ornamentation. Ranch Ranch homes are set apart by pitched-roof construction, built-in garages, and picture windows. Craftsman Full- or partial-width porches are framed by tapered columns and overhanging eaves. Regency The style borrows the Georgian's classic lines, yet eschews ornamentation. Creole A front wall recedes to form a first-story porch and a second-story balcony. Saltbox Its sharply sloping gable roof resembles old-time boxes used for storing salt. Dutch Colonial German settlers originated this style, which features a broad, barn-like roof. Second Empire This Victorian style features mansard roofs with dormer windows. Federal This style arose amid a renewed interest in Greek and

Roman culture. Shed A subset of the Modern style, Shed houses are asymmetric with sloping roofs. French Provincial Balance and symmetry define the French Provincial style, which has a steep hip roof. Shingle An American style that echoes Queen Anne, it has unadorned doors and large porches. Georgian With paired chimneys and a decorative crown, this style was named after English royalty. Shotgun Tradition says that a shotgun blast can trace a straight path from the front to back door. Gothic Revival English romanticism influenced this style, marked by Gothic windows and vaulted roofs. Spanish Eclectic This style has details from Moorish, Byzantine, Gothic, and Renaissance styles. Greek Revival Entryway columns and a front door surrounded by rectangular windows are characteristic. Split Level A Modern style, Split levels sequester living activities, such as sleeping and socializing.

International The International style exposes functional building elements, including elevator shafts. Stick Decorative horizontal, vertical, or diagonal boards are typical of this Victorian style. Italianate This style has symmetrical bay windows in front, small chimneys, and tall windows. Tudor Tudors have half-timbering on bay windows and upper floors, and steep cross gables. Monterey The Monterey style updates the New England Colonial style with an Adobe brick exterior. Victorian Built during the rise of the machine age, Victorian architecture incorporated decorative details such as patterned shingles. National Rooted in Native American dwellings, the National style is rectangular with sidegabled roofs. 7KH DERYH LQIRUPDWLRQ LV SURYLGHG E\ 7KH 1DWLRQDO $VVRFLDWLRQ RI 5HDOWRUV Š

Farm workers’ advocates will be marching up to Albany later this month to lobby for better working conditions.

Sowing seeds of the farm workers’ labor rights debate Farm workers’ advocates are preparing to march 200 miles up to Albany in the name of better labor conditions, and we think lawmakers should listen. A group called the Rural Migrant Ministry organized the annual March for Farm Worker Justice, which sets off on May 15 this year, as part of its lobbying efforts for better working and living conditions, overtime pay and more for farm workers across the region. One member of that group described farm workers as “living in fear” of the “strongholds” farmers have on them, and the group has accused state Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) of failing to address their concerns since becoming majority leader. But an anonymous website, nyfarmworkerprotectionbill.com provided the farmers’ perspective. “RMM and others have recruited various celebrities and foodies to support the bill, as well as downstate and New York City legislators, most of whom have never even been to a farm,” the site said. “We believe these individuals have been misled and have not done the proper research to find out the truth about farms, growers, farmworkers and the challenges we face to bring fresh food to as many tables as possible.” We understand there are different angles to this debate, but we also firmly believe workers of any type, whether they are legally employed or paid off-the-books, should be allotted some basic rights that lawmakers must find ways to put in placew. We are calling on our elected officials to engage stakeholders in this debate and hold a public hearing in which all parties can contribute to the dialogue. There can be no mutual understanding without communication, and there appears to be a disconnect between farmers and their workers, or even between legislators and the agricultural sector. If everyone sits down together and has a respectful discussion, they may find fertile ground for compromise.

Art by Alphonse Ripandelli Love your Suffolk County parks

Photo from Kara Hahn

As a lover of our parks and as vice chair of the county Legislature’s Parks & Recreation Committee, I have initiated the 2016 “A Park a Day in May” challenge on Facebook. Every day in the month of May, I will describe and post photos from a different local park. I challenge everyone to

visit each of the parks I list sometime this summer. Take a photo of yourself at the park, preferably in front of the park’s sign, but definitely in a location that makes it obvious where you are. I am continually surprised, sometimes even shocked by the number of residents who tell me they’ve never been to or

don’t know about Avalon Park in Stony Brook; or Frank Melville Memorial Park, or the Greenway Trail or even West Meadow Beach in Setauket. Kara Hahn Suffolk County Legislator Setauket

OPINION Reading between the sporting lines S ome conversations need a decoder. “I hate you,” in middle school often means, “Why don’t you pay more attention to me? I think you’re pretty awesome and I don’t know how to tell you that directly.” Or, how about: “What you did isn’t so great. I could have done that.” Translation: “Damn, I wish I had thought of that. Where’d you get that idea?” “Johnny is so much worse at this than I am.” Translation: “Johnny may or not be much By Daniel Dunaief may worse than I am, but I can’t possibly be the worst one at wrapping holiday presents. Please, tell me that I’m not at the bottom of the barrel in this activity.”

D. None of the above

Parents have their own way of communicating with each other and/or speaking about their children. Most of the things we say, either to our spouses, to their teachers or to other parents, are direct and straightforward. I’ve had some recent conversations in sporting matters where the subtext is so obvious that I thought I’d share my own decoder. Me: “So, how do you think the team looks this year?” Superdad: “Well, my son has spent much of the offseason preparing for this.” Translation: “I poured thousands of dollars into training. He better do well and you all better notice it quickly, if you want to protect my son and the trainers from my wrath.” Then there was a recent discussion about various volleyball skill sets among our daughters. I was speaking with the mother of a girl who is so much taller than my daughter that she’d have to bend down to eat peanuts off the top of my daughter’s head. This other girl plays the frontline almost exclusively.

Me: “So your daughter Clara looked great in the front today.” Superdad: “Yeah, but she’s the best one on the team in the back line. She just never gets there, but she’s scary good back there, too.” Translation: “I probably wasn’t that good at sports when I was younger and I want my daughter to define awesome on this team. In fact, this team would probably be better if we either cloned my daughter and had her play every position or if we took a few of your daughters off the floor for some of the game, until my daughter was able to give us a big enough lead.” Bragging about our kids is inevitable, and probably helpful as a way to assure ourselves that there is a payoff for all the work of getting them to and from practices, rehearsals and other activities. There are those parents who feign disappointment in their children. Faker: “Oh, man, did you see that she only got two outs when she could have had a triple play? Now, that would have been something special.”

Translation: “She made the most incredible catch anyone has made this year and she would have had a triple play if your daughter hadn’t been studying the butterfly over in the bushes. Next time, maybe the team will be ready for that kind of play and your child can play a supporting role in my child’s greatness.” And then there are the parents who work to limit any praise for their children, warding off the evil eye. Me: “Wow, your son made a sensational running catch in the end zone. Congratulations.” Superstitious parent: “Yeah, I guess it was OK, but the throw from the quarterback and the blocking by the other boys was even more impressive.” Translation: “He’s OK, but don’t call too much attention to him.” And then there are the put-it-in-perspective parents: Me: “That was a tough game, no?” PP: “I suppose, but they get to go home to a comfortable house with supportive parents.” Translation: “Win or lose, life is good.”

Invitation to a special Celebration Party And to properly celebrate our A anniversary, we are giving a ‘Thank midst all the frenetic news on the political scene, there is one constant and enduring spot in our world. It is the hometown newspaper, and I am enormously proud to be its publisher and, 40 years ago, the one with the idea to start the venture “with the highest ideals of a free press.” Along with nine other stockholders and a tiny, dedicated staff, we came out with the first edition on April 8, 1976, and as one longtime reader commented recently, “When we saw the paper, we knew it was Thursday.” Now, we may have missed our Thursday publication day a couple of times in the last four decades, but those instances were only due to Nature’s fury or a holiday scheduling change, and we have never missed a week. This rock-solid local instituBy Leah S. Dunaief tion owes its strength to a couple of factors. One is the unfailing commitment of our staff, some of whose names may have changed over the years but whose legendary loyalty continues. We get the news out to the public, with accuracy and fairness, to our utmost professional abilities. Included in that news, of course, are the ads that local businesses depend on for their customers’ response. Second is the willingness of our community to support our paper. When we first started, we were told more than once, “You don’t have a snowball’s chance in hell” of succeeding. Sometimes, to soften the blow, they added for the benefit of our largely
