Smithtown Supervisor Ed Wehrheim said one of two possible plans for consolidation involves purchasing the Joseph M. Barton Building, pictured above. M. Barton Building on New York Avenue, for potentially moving town hall. The second option is for the town to build an extension onto Town Hall itself. Smithtown United Civic Association, led by President Tim Smalls, presented a proposed plan for downtown revitalization that pushed for Smithtown town government offices being consolidated into the New York Avenue building. Lohmann said that he believes the schoolowned building is not feasible because of its need for extensive renovations. You’re talking about over $2 million to do cleanup and an abatement there, then a redesign,” he said. “I don’t see that as a plausibility at this moment in time.” David Flynn, the town’s planning director,

said consolidation is not as big a deal for his department in the age of computers and easy telecommunication. “Of course, it will make some difference, but in the current world where people use phones and computers for communication it means less than it would of 20 years ago,” he said. “Would it be more convenient to meet with somebody, sure.” Whether or not Flynn and his department moves is all going to come down to comparing the costs of keeping the buildings or consolidating them. “It all depends on running out the costs for both scenarios, how much the cost is for heat, light, water and other kinds of maintenance,” he said. “I think you estimate it either way and see what the costs are.”

Smithtown area school budgets before voters May 15 Guide to Commack, Kings Park, Smithtown 2018-19 proposed budgets and board of education races TBR NEWS MEDIA

The school year is almost finished, and while students are sitting at the edge of their seats ready for summer, their parents and other Smithtown residents are being asked to vote May 15 on the school budgets and board elections. Budgets saw increases across the board as districts attempt to increase security options and offer up more school programs and courses at nearly every grade level.

Because the district stayed within the tax levy cap, it only needs a simple 50 percent majority vote to pass the budget. In addition to security, the district is looking to add one additional school psychologist, social worker and guidance counselor to its staffing. The ballot will include a proposition for the use of capital reserve funds to complete a number of repairs and renovations in the district. This includes repairs to the tennis courts at Smithtown High School East and West, window replacement in the Accompsett Middle School and roof and skylight repairs at the Smithtown Elementary School.

Two seats on the Smithtown school board have come up for re-election but only one race is contested. Newcomer Mandi Kowalik is competing against incumbent trustee Christopher Alcure for a trustee seat. Incumbent and current board President Jeremy Thode is running again for his seat unopposed.

She has worked on a number of school committees including as area representative and member of the board for the Teacher Center of the West Hamptons. Kowalik has one son starting kindergarten this September with two younger daughters she plans to enroll in the district. “Our school board needs a mom with school-aged children,” Kowalik said in a statement. “My family will be attending Smithtown schools for 16 more years. I am very heavily invested in the welfare of the district.” Kowalik said she wants to focus on security as well as the mental and physical well-being of students. “The security of our students and staff are the most important issue that we are currently facing,” she said. “I am prepared to do whatever it takes to keep our school safe.” The board candidate said she believes students need time to socialize without adults actively interacting and closely monitoring them. While she said the district has explored this at some levels, she would like to continue to explore further avenues for it.

Alcure said. Alcure is a 15-year Smithtown resident where he currently operates a small business. In addition, he works as project manager at CA Technologies based in Islandia. Alcure said he has two daughters currently enrolled in Smithtown schools. His experience raising his kids as well as his six years on the board, including three years as board president, has given him plenty of experience to deal with today’s challenges. “I am battle tested and I have thick skin,” he said. “These are very important qualities for public service. I survived the economic downturn where the board had to make difficult decisions in terms of balancing the budget and making sensible cuts to programs that would not overly impact students.” Alcure said he wants to focus on investing in additional security options for Smithtown schools, maintaining low class sizes and improving district facilities. “I’m looking for ways to continue to improve educational opportunities for students, at all levels, on the path toward college and career readiness,” Alcure said.

Serving the Community Since 2000

Proposed 2018-19 budget The Smithtown Central School District is including new security measures in its proposed 2018-19 budget, which sets aside funding for new security guards for all seven elementary schools. The school district adopted its budget of $244,913,464, which represents a 2.32 percent increase, or additional $5,546,259 more than this year’s budget. “The board and administration believe we have met our promise to the community to preserve student programs while optimizing budget efficiencies to remain fiscally responsible,” Superintendent James Grossane said in a statement. The school district’s security was one of the larger areas receiving a funding increase under the proposed budget. The suggested security upgrades include vestibules in all school entrances that will be constructed over the summer as well as full-time, unarmed security guards for all elementary schools. “Full-time security guards began on May 1 in all district elementary schools and will continue as part of the budget moving forward,” Grossane said. The budget will also maintain all current programs while transitioning to universal elementary school start and end times from 9:20 a.m. to 3:25 p.m. It will allow the district to offer new elective courses at the high school including adding Advanced Placement Capstone Research in addition to the existing AP Capstone program. If approved, the 2018-19 budget represents

Commack school district

Proposed 2018-19 school budget The Commack School District adopted its 2018-19 budget with a $3 million increase aimed at expanding college level courses at the high school while also conducting a districtwide security review. The board has put out a proposed budget of $193,222,797, which contains a 1.61 percent increase over this year’s budget. “We are very proud of our budget, and have again come in lower than our tax cap through our fiscally conservative, multiyear planning process,” Superintendent Donald James said in a statement. “All of our schools’ current academic and extracurricular offerings are included in next year’s budget with no cuts in programs — along with new opportunities for exploration and learning.” Board Vice President Jarrett Behar said the planned security review is based on community feedback. The district plans to put in a request for proposal for a districtwide security audit to identify potential security problems in the district and potential improvements. “We really wanted to shy away from kneejerk reactions,” Behar said. “These events that happened were horrific, but we wanted to take a considered approach.” The budget maintains current programs while expanding upon others. If approved, it will expand the pottery wheel classes for sixth-graders and add more college level, project-based courses for high school students, and a Movement in the Arts program that will attempt to give elementary students 40 to 60 minutes of physical activity during the school day. The proposed budget also provides funding for replacement vehicles for the security and maintenance departments, updated computers with more antivirus and malware programs and enhancements to Wi-Fi connectivity in the district buildings. If approved, the budget will impose a 2.51 percent tax levy increase, which falls within the state mandated tax levy cap. This budget accounts for an anticipated decrease in state aid, which saw a decrease in the amount of building aid among other financial aids.

Commack board of education

One trustee seat is currently up for vote, and incumbent trustee and current vice president on the board Jarrett Behar is running unopposed. He says the biggest problems that the Commack school district will face in the upcoming years has to do with state financing. “Largely, it’s funding issues, mostly from the state, and we’re going to continue to fight against unfunded mandates and to get Foundation Aid formula fixed so we get our fair share of state funding,” Behar said. “The foundation aid formula is like the formula for Coke, nobody can really figure out what it is. Whatever it is, I don’t think we’re getting enough as we should.” Behar is a 12-year resident of Commack and he has been trustee on the board for the last three years. Before that he worked on the Rolling Hills Primary School PTA and as

He currently works as a partner at Sinnreich, Kosakoff & Messina LLP in Central Islip. He believes his experience both in the community and as an attorney helps him to work with others on the board. “The whole board starts with the mentality of what is best for the children and works from there. Couple that with the long-term planning that the board has put in place [and] I think we’ve done a really good job,” Behar said. Board President Steve Hartman said that Behar’s legal expertise has been very helpful when dealing with any legal issues that come up in meetings. “Mr. Behar has worked diligently with his fellow BOE members over the past three years to ensure that our children have had as many opportunities as possible throughout their school year,” Hartman said in a statement. “He also wants to ensure that our children go to school in an environment that makes them feel safe and secure. I look forward to continue working with him as we continue to improve our programs districtwide.” Behar’s son, Jeffrey, is in fifth grade at Sawmill Intermediate School and his daughter, Mollie, is in first grade at Wood Park Primary School. Board elections and budget vote will take place May 15 from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Commack Middle School and Commack High School.

Kings Park school district

Proposed 2018-19 budget The Kings Park Central School district is asking residents to vote on a proposed $92 million budget that looks to include new course offerings and security projects. The Kings Park school board of education has put forth a proposed budget to the tune of $92,168,700, which represents a 4.09 percent increase, or approximately $3.6 million more than the current year. The tax levy, which is the amount of money a district needs to raise through property taxes to balance its budget, shows an increase of 2.73 percent from last year, which is below the New York State mandated tax levy cap. “We were pretty strategic in the adds for next year’s budget,” Superintendent Timothy Eagen said. “I think this year’s budget has some real positive inclusions in it.” The proposed budget features plans for increased security measures. These include $100,000 dedicated to the creation of security vestibules in the main entryways of all Kings Park school buildings. “What a security vestibule would do is

you would come in the first door, and you’d be in a vestibule, but you wouldn’t get clearance or get buzzed into the building until security scanned your license and confirmed your identity,” Eagen said. “Then you are buzzed through the second door.” Along with additional security cameras, the school plans on having the teachers download an app to their phones called Rave Panic Button, which will enable them to have a direct line to police, fire and emergency medical at the push of a button. “The whole idea is to shorten the time that emergency services need to get to the school,” the superintendent said. Eagen said that the new budget maintains all current curriculum, classes, clubs and activities while adding new courses. If approved, the budget will allow funding for a new AP Capstone Research program, an exploratory course where students learn to do research in any number of fields and synthesize that research into research papers. Other new courses include an American Sign Language elective for eighth-graders, new math programs, robotics, computer programming and coding.

Kings Park board of education

Three people are currently running for two open seats on the Kings Park board of education. Candidates include incumbent trustee Kevin Johnston, incumbent and current board Vice President Diane Nally and newcomer candidate Darryl Valinchus. Johnston is a 31-year Kings Park resident. He has spent a year on the board and is looking for a second. He said there is still work to do on school renovations, modernization, decreasing class sizes and school security. “I would like to see the process through,” Johnston said. “I’m a big proponent of education. I would just like to continue in the direction Kings Park is going with education because year by year the number of students going on to secondary education has improved.” Johnston is a retired educator from the school district where he spent 35 years as an English teacher and coach. His two children are graduates of Kings Park, and he currently works for State University of New York Oneonta as a supervisor of student-teachers. He believes his experience as teacher helps him as trustee, especially when it comes to aiding students and promoting programs for kids with special needs. “Some of them still feel vulnerable and isolated, and we need to give them the help and attention they need and deserve,” Johnston said. “They need an advocate, and we want to

make everyone feel a part of the school. Nally is a 58-year resident of Kings Park, and she has had three children graduate from the school district. She has been on the school board for the past six years and she is looking to run for another term. “My three children are educators, my husband is an educator, so I believe education is really important to me and my family,” she said. “I believe it is a responsibility of all citizens to educate our children. That’s why I feel the job I am doing on the board is really important.” Nally retired as director of religious education at St. Joseph’s School of Religion program in 2016, and now she spends most of her time baby-sitting her three grandchildren. She said two of the most important things she wants to tackle as member of the board are drug issues and the mental health of students, and that she wants to involve the community in that process. “There’s been a lot of concern over emotional issues facing some of our children,” she said. “I think that is something that needs to be addressed.” Valinchus is a 15-year Kings Park resident and is a retired sergeant of the New York Police Department’s intelligence bureau. He currently owns a business as an expert witness providing services to law enforcement agencies and prosecutors’ offices. He has also spent 10 years on the Kings Park Youth Athletic Association’s board. He said he is running to provide his expertise on security to the district. “I think my background in law enforcement will help us with one of the most pressing things right now ... securing our students and our schools,” he said. “I feel that diversifying the backgrounds on the school board will help us come [up] with better solutions and better decisions.” Valinchus said he doesn’t want to wait for the state to give funds before they add extra security to the school. “There’s things we can do to secure our buildings, without offending people, without making it look like smoke and mirrors, without sending our security too far,” Valinchus said. Valinchus has had two sons who graduated from the district, one in 2014 and the other in 2017. Beyond security, Valinchus said he wishes to provide a financially responsible budget that addresses the community’s concerns. “Education is a priority,” he said. “We need to make sure our students are prepared for college.” The budget and board of education vote will take place May 15 from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Kings Park High School rear gymnasium.

UNIVERSITY SBU scientists unveil new home nitrogen filter prototype Scientists and engineers from Stony Brook University are planning to use two plentiful Long Island resources to save its coastal waters from nitrogen pollution: sand and wood chips. Members of the New York State-funded Center for Clean Water Technology at Stony Brook University unveiled their nitrogenreducing biofilter April 26 at a Suffolk County-owned home in Shirley. “We have made a huge commitment to protect and preserve our land as we are protecting the groundwater below,” said New York State Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson). “We are zeroing in on our water, and we are making a major commitment with systems like these.” Through the system, waste from the home is first pumped into a septic tank. After the septic tank the effluent is moved into a separate system that trickles down by gravity, first going through a sand layer where bacteria turns the nitrogen into nitrite and nitrate. The waste then goes through another layer of sand and wood chips designed to turn the nitrite/nitrate into nitrogen gas that will go into the atmosphere, instead of into the ground and thus Long Island’s water. The system being built in Shirley is one of three the center is testing as part of Suffolk County’s bid to create a nitrogen reducing home wastewater system. “We have outstanding professionals who are helping to guide these efforts,” Deputy County Executive Peter Scully said. “We should be able to involve ourselves in the designing of the next generation of this technology, bringing the cost down [and] making the technology more effective.” One of the biggest problems for Long Island’s coastal waters has been hypoxia, a

state caused by excess nitrogen, where the oxygen level in water is below the necessary levels to support life. It affects fish, clams and any underwater plant life. Last year co-director of the Center for Clean Water Technology, Christopher Gobler and other researchers from the Long Island Clean Water Partnership, concluded there were cases of hypoxia in Stony Brook Harbor, Northport Bay, Oyster Bay, Hempstead Bay as well as waters all along both the North and South shores. In 2015 Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) called nitrogen pollution the county’s “environmental public enemy number one.” Since then the county has worked with local scientists and engineers to craft technology that could replace Long Island’s old cesspool and septic tanks. The benchmark for total amount of nitrogen allowed from any of these new systems is 19 milligrams of nitrogen per liter. Co-director at the Center for Clean Water Technology, Howard Walker, said that initial tests of the system have reached well below that threshold. “We’re seeing less than 10 milligrams per liter of total nitrogen coming from the systems in the prototypes we’ve been testing for the past year and a half,” Walker said. “The results that we’ve gained have been very exciting.” The purpose of the prototypes is to gauge the effectiveness of the system as well as find ways to reduce the price and size of the filter. The center hopes the system will be affordable since all the parts could be bought from plumbing or pool supply stores. Gobler said the system currently costs several tens of thousands of dollars in its prototype stage, but he hopes the cost will come down with more tests. “This is nonproprietary — all other systems are built off of Long Island and then brought here, this one is using Long

Co-director of Stony Brook University’s Center for Clean Water Technology, Howard Walker, demonstrates how sand is used in a prototype of a new nitrogen-reducing biofilter at a recent press conference in Shirley. Island materials, Long Island labor,” Gobler said. “Ultimately without having to run a company or without having to buy something off the shelf, there’s a promise to make these highly affordable.” Other nitrogen filters have problems when it comes to people flushing any kind of bleach, pharmaceuticals or other harmful chemicals because they kill off the bacteria that remove the nitrogen from the effluent, according to Gobler. He said the design of SBU’s nitrogen-reducing biofilter will be less prone to failure because the waste is spread over a large area, and because it seeps through the layers of sand at a slower rate the killing effect of chemicals would

be reduced. “One bad flush is not going to upturn the apple cart,” Gobler said. “We’ve tested more than 30 different organic compounds, pharmaceuticals, personal care products, drugs, and in all cases its removing 90 percent of those compounds, sometimes 99 percent. In certain cases, it’s just as good or even better than a sewage treatment plant.” The Center for Clean Water Technology hopes to have concrete results on its prototypes in a year’s time. After that a provisional phase would take place where the center would install another 20 filters in other parts of Long Island.

LI businesses join forces against sexual violence BY ALEX PETROSKI ALEX@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

Laura Ahearn of the Crime Victims Center speaks during a press conference to announce a consortium to tackle sexual violence, flanked by local lawmakers.

157105

Leaders from private and public sectors came together April 20 to form a partnership that would make Randy Newman proud. “You’ve got a friend in me,” was the message from members of the local business world following the creation of the Long Island Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Consortium, an initiative spearheaded by Laura Ahearn, executive director of Suffolk County’s Crime Victims Center. As a direct result of the #MeToo social media movement turned global awakening, societal response to accusations of sexual misconduct and crime has undegone a swift change, especially in cases in which the accused is of a high profile. But lawmakers and advocates for the movement have been asking an essential question since the movement ensnared the likes of Harvey Weinstein and Larry Nassar back in 2017: How will men who are not famous perpetrating acts of sexual violence against victims who need their jobs to survive truly be held accountable? Ahearn’s consortium may serve as a model in answering that question. “We asked them to just do one thing to help us prevent sexual violence, and we would be satisfied if that one thing was just to be a member of our consortium, because they’re very busy,” Ahearn said of her pitch to business leaders when trying to rally support for the partnership. “We didn’t want to pressure them, and we didn’t want to ask them for money, because every time they hear ‘not-for-profit,’ they’re like ‘money?’ So instead we said, ‘Just do one thing. Just come to our consortium, give us your logo and you’ll be part of what we’re doing to raise awareness.’ There’s a certain amount of credibility that a big company adds to an organization just working to prevent sexual violence.” The CVC, Ahearn’s organization, is a not-for-profit organization that has been a relentless advocate for victims of all crimes since the late ’90s. It assists victims of child sex abuse and rape, provides services to victims of violent crime, and assists elderly, disabled and minor victims of all crime. To form the consortium, Ahearn presented a list of options businesses could incorporate into their standard practices, which if adhered to should make workplaces on Long Island safer for vulnerable members of the workforce. The list of options businesses were asked to pick from and incorporate to become a member included adding a link to the LISVP consortium on businesses’ websites; providing prevention education and victim services materials in new employee orientation; adding prevention messages to receipts provided to customers; creating public service announcements; hosting training sessions aided by the CVC; and many more. Organizations signed on to be a part of the consortium so far include Stony Brook Medicine, Altice, Northwell Health, AT&T, Verizon, BNB Bank, Catholic Health Services of Long Island, TRITEC Real Estate Company, Uber, Lyft and many more. Ahearn said in most cases, leaders of the private-sector insttutions signed on to take more than one step on the list, and that only one organization she reached out to declined to join. She said she hopes to add to the current list of about 40 consortium partners. Local lawmakers from virtually all levels of government also attended the April 20 press conference to announce the consortium in Hauppauge and voiced support for the cause. “All the degradation of women in the workplace that has gone on in the shadows throughout our life times, whether it’s the insidious, quiet comments, innuendoes, or whether it’s the more blatant abuse — touching or physical violence — it’s over,” New York Lt. Gov. Kathleen Hochul (D) said. Suffolk County District Attorney Tim Sini (D) also attended the press conference to voice support for the initiative.

Dozens of volunteers were willing to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty to show their love for Smithtown’s state park this weekend. Boy Scout Troop 565 of Smithtown and Girl Scout Troop 2861 of Hauppauge participated in the annual New York State Parks & Trails I Love My Park Day May 5 at Caleb Smith State Park Preserve. The Scouts worked alongside resident volunteers to restore trails and plant flowers. The groups were part of the more than 8,000 volunteers who lent a helping hand at one of the 135 parks, historic sites and public lands in celebration of New York State’s park system, according to the Parks & Trails website. The annual I Love My Park event is hosted in partnership by New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, the National Park Service, Excelsior Conservation Corps and the New York Commission on Volunteer and Community Service. — SARA-MEGAN WALSH

SPORTS

Baseball club puts classic spin on America’s pastime “No gloves, no steroids” is the motto of the Atlantic Base Ball Club, which has a classic approach to playing America’s favorite pastime. Smithtown’s vintage baseball club team hosted a two-day festival at the Smithtown Historical Society’s Atlantic Park off East Main Street May 5 and 6. The Atlantic Base Ball Club is a recreation of the 19th century Brooklyn Atlantics, wearing period-

appropriate jerseys while remaining committed to playing the game by 19th century rules. The original team was organized Aug. 14, 1855, and played home games on the Capitoline Grounds in Brooklyn. Spectators quickly noticed the handmade baseballs are larger and made of rubber, and the wooden bats come in different lengths according to a player’s preference.

Under the vintage rules, the catcher and field players don’t wear mitts, but a batter will be called out if a fly ball is caught on the first bounce. Runners must be careful not to overrun first base, or they can be called out. A full explanation of the rules changes is available on the team’s website at www.brooklynatlantics. org/rules.php. — SARA-MEGAN WALSH

UPCOMING HOME GAMES The Atlantic team is 7-2 at the start of its 2018 season with games running through October. Admission is free. The schedule of upcoming home games is:

May 20 @ 11 a.m. Talbot Fairplays June 9 @ 11 a.m. Doubleheader vs. Old Dutch Day, Providence Grays June 30 @ 11 am. Doubleheader vs. New Brunswick Liberty July 14 @ 11 a.m. Red Onion BBC Sept. 15 [day-long] Smithtown Heritage Fair Oct. 27 @ 11 a.m

Fourth-graders at St. James Elementary School celebrated the opening day of baseball by engaging in activities centered on the sport March 29. The day was filled with baseball-themed lessons, and students listened to the famous comedy act “Who’s on First” by Abbott and Costello and had to answer questions about who was at each position. They also read and answered questions about the poem “Casey at the Bat” and listened to the song “The Greatest” by Kenny Rogers and discussed its lessons as a mindfulness activity. Student-artists designed their own baseball pennants and budding musicians wrote their own versions of “Take me out to the ballgame” to share with the class. For their hands-on science lesson, students predicted, tested and measured the bounce of a baseball, tennis ball, whiffle ball and golf ball.

OPINION Editorial

Letters to the editor

With Mother’s Day coming up this Sunday, our editorial staff wanted to take a moment to reflect and give thanks for the powerful mothers and grandmothers who have shaped our lives.

Dear Director James McHenry, On April 12, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement presented the Fiscal Year 2019 president’s budget request. The testimony included a commitment to open 75 new immigration courtrooms in 2018 to reduce the backlog of pending immigration cases. As [director of] the Executive Office for Immigration Review, [which] identifies locations for new immigration courts, we respectfully request you place at least one of these new locations on Long Island. According to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, Suffolk and Nassau counties rank in the top 10 among all counties in the nation for pending cases before immigration courts, with 23,178 cases as of Dec. 31, 2017.

Mother knows best

Rita J. Egan: Both my mother and I often find ourselves feeling as if we’re turning into my grandmother, and many times have uttered the words, “Grandma was right about that.” After my parents separated, I moved in with my maternal grandparents, so it’s no surprise my grandmother had as much of an influence on me as she did on my mother. It’s been said it takes a village to raise a child, and I agree. I am the person I am today thanks to not only my mother but my grandmother, my Aunt Eileen, friends’ mothers and so many who took me under their wings. So on Mother’s Day I say thank you not only to my mom but to all the women who made a difference in my life. Desirée Keegan: I don’t know where to begin, and it’s hard to find the words to say, but “Thank You” are very small ones for the sacrifices my mother has made every single day. Her kind support throughout the years, sharing in my triumphs and tears, has never gone unnoticed. I love the way she stops to listen, even if she doesn’t have the time. Or how she loves to make me laugh with her old jokes or terrible singing, especially when she knows I’m down. Watching a single mother be so selfless is envious, and even if I could be just a piece of what she is, I’d consider myself a success. Alex Petroski: When I was about 22 I irresponsibly made a huge mistake that cost me a job on my previous career path. The mistake was a result of laziness and immaturity, and I also knew I was comfortable at my retail job, making enough money to feed myself and do things with friends. When I told my mom about the mistake, it was in the context of being comfortable with staying at my retail job anyway, so no big deal. She didn’t take it nearly as lightly as I did. She challenged me to do something that would make her and my dad proud, and that conversation has been the guiding principle of my work life ever since. I can’t speak for her as far as if I’ve succeeded or not yet, but it will never be for a lack of effort. Thanks for knowing when to push me, Mom. Sara-Megan Walsh: It’s said that distance makes the heart grow fonder. This is the second Mother’s Day since my mom moved south to Florida. While I’m not great at making regular phone calls, I miss being able to drop by the house on a Friday night to say hello and ask for your advice while hopefully snagging a free slice of pizza. You provide encouragement when I’m running ragged and gently push me to keep going. I love the homemade sweaters, but they aren’t a substitute for your hugs. Kyle Barr: Dear Mom, the way I know you love me is because you always worry. You worry about what I’m going to eat when I get home. You worry about if I’m getting enough sleep, if I take the time to be with friends, if my friends are treating me right, about what I want to do with my life. You worry if I am home too much, you worry if I’m gone too much. You worry about my student loans. You worry about my bank account. Worry runs like grains of sugar around your mouth and down your cheeks. It’s real, solid, sweet. I see it sparkling in your eyes when you look at me. Distilled, worry becomes pure empathy. At the beginning you gave me life and made it a part of yours. To worry is to make another person more important than yourself. You made me and in doing so made me a part of you. I couldn’t properly explain how much I love you. Perhaps you can see it when I worry. I worry that you don’t think enough about yourself. I worry that I would hurt you if I ever left home. I worry that you worry a little too much. At least please know that I love you because I worry.

Addressing gang violence Suffolk and Nassau counties have absorbed a significant number of unaccompanied alien children with 1,219 being relocated in Nassau County and 1,472 going to sponsors in Suffolk County in 2017. Pending cases contribute to associated gang violence on Long Island as gang members target youth like UACs. While serving as Suffolk County’s police commissioner, now Suffolk County District Attorney Timothy Sini stated in his testimony to the Committee on Homeland Security, “of a sampling of 143 active gang members, 89 entered the United States illegally and currently do not have legal status (39 of whom are UACs), 48 are of unknown immigration status, and 17 have legal status (temporary or otherwise).” An adequate

expansion of EOIR resources to Long Island would assist local law enforcement’s relationship with ICE to implement enacted immigration laws. The backlog in immigration courts is a result of years of policy failures under prior administrations. Effective immigration judge teams are necessary to carry out the U.S. Department of Justice’s statutory responsibility to prosecute administrative immigration cases. Suffolk and Nassau counties could efficiently use these resources to address the backlog as well as prioritize incoming cases related to gang violence. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

SNAP important to children’s health As a pediatrician, I feel compelled to speak out against the proposed cuts to SNAP in the farm bill, H.R.2, which is currently up for a vote in the House. SNAP is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. It is the most effective domestic U.S. hunger safety net program and nearly half of its recipients are children. Over one million children in New York state receive benefits from SNAP. Cuts to SNAP will adversely affect children in the nearly 22,000 households with children that participate in the program right

here on Long Island. SNAP delivers critical support to vulnerable families to ensure that they can put food on the table. Children who live in households that are food insecure are likely to be sick more often, recover from illness more slowly and be hospitalized more frequently. Lack of adequate healthy food can impair a child’s ability to perform well in school and can lead to higher levels of behavioral and emotional problems from preschool to adolescence. SNAP is reauthorized under

the farm bill, legislation that renews federal agriculture, trade and nutrition programs. At present, SNAP benefits are not enough to provide funding with the resources to obtain an adequate healthy diet, and they should not be cut further. No child should have to struggle with hunger and food insecurity in our country. SNAP serves as a critical support for the health and well-being of children, and its funding should not be cut in the farm bill.

Dr. Eve Meltzer-Krief Pediatrician, Huntington

America in the midst of a crisis All structure of acceptable language and behavior within our traditional society is now in transition from logical common sense. Our nation is being directed contrary to the principles of our Founding Fathers. We are presently in great danger by following a progressive path that is leading our nation away from our Constitutional freedoms. To counter this sedition, we must immediately return to the glory of our past. In less than 20 years social and moral standards have changed. Political parties are in chaos, causing a state of utter confusion and disorder endangering our republic.

With this chaotic condition our educational structure is a disaster. Change is altering past values of teaching in reading, writing, English and math. Many elementary students cannot identify their first president. Social engineering is in conflict with parents’ moral standards and their authority. Our school values were once recognized far above other nations. This has become the water drip torture of change. There is much to be desired in our left wing professors who are brainwashing our siblings in the philosophy of Karl Marx. Siblings now feel free to destroy school property

given their behavior as freedom of expression. Action required: immediate suspension and parent notification without a financial refund. In retrospect, let us once again return to quality education that gave much to the glory of our nation and our freedoms. On moral values, we are now entering medical procedures that leave doubt in ethical surgery. The ability to alter preordained identity is not choice. It is a mandate of deity. Madness I feel thy sting. God bless America.

OPINION

Red Sox, Yankees fans feel October excitement in May

t’s only May and, despite the warm weather, it feels a bit like October around here, at least, if you talk to fans of the Yankees and Red Sox. The two best teams in baseball, as of earlier this week, were preparing o go head-to-head in a three-game series that seemed to have more on the line than a typical series between the heated rivals at this point in spring. The Red Sox had that incredibly hot start, winning 17 of their first 19 games, tearing up the league anyone who By Daniel Dunaief and dared to try to compete with them. The Yankees, meanwhile, started slowly, sputtering to a .500 record.

D. None of the above

And then the Yankees seemed to have gotten as hot as the weather, scoring runs in the clutch, pitching with confidence and bringing in rookies like Gleyber Torres and Miguel Andujar, who play more like seasoned veterans. On a recent evening, my wife and I made a quick stop to the grocery store. As we were walking out, a friend saw me in my Yankees sweatshirt. The friend asked if the team pulled out a win, even though they were losing 4-0 in the eighth inning. As my wife waited patiently, I recounted nearly every at bat that led to another improbable Yankees comeback. A man who worked at the supermarket came over to listen, put up his hand to high-five me and said he had a feeling they might come back. While the team measures the success of the season by the ability to win the World Series, the fans, particularly during a season with so much early promise, can bask in the excitement of individual games or series.

The first season, as the incredibly long 162 games from March through October is called, can include numerous highlights that allow fans to appreciate the journey, as well as the destination. Nothing is a given in a game or a season. We attend or watch any game knowing that the walk-off home run the rookie hit could just as easily have been an inning ending double play. Ultimately, the most important part of the season is the recognition that it is a game. You can see that when the players mob each other at the plate or smile through their interviews with the sideline reporters after a tight contest. Year after year, all these teams with all their fans hope the season ends with a victory parade. They want to be able to say, “I was there.” Ultimately, in life, that’s what we’re hoping for. Moments to cheer for friends and family, to celebrate victories and to enjoy these contests.

Indeed, the winners often look back on the moments when nothing came easily, when their team, their family or their opportunity seemed to be so elusive. These are occasions when nothing that seems to go right turns into those where everything goes according to plan. They don’t happen because you’ve got the right fortune cookie, put on the right socks or asked for some deity to help your team beat another team full of equally worthy opponents, whose fans utter the same prayers. They happen because of the hard work and dedication. They also often happen because people are taking great pride in doing their jobs and being a part of a team. Right now, it feels like these two blood rivals are well-matched, facing off in a May series that can bring the energy of October. And, hey, if you’re looking to connect with someone, put on a Yankees or Red Sox sweatshirt and head to the supermarket.

by that point and they came to accept the new arrangement, even were infrequently pleased with my new occupation. And since my office was only some five minutes from the house and three minutes from their school, I felt I could get to them quickly if they needed me. I was able to look in on them in the course of each day. In fact, I had more trouble convincing my mother than my children that it was acceptable to work both inside and outside the home. I just could never understand how all three unfailingly picked friends who lived on the farthest ends of the school district and had to be driven back and forth. That and the constant car pooling for games and music lessons made me grateful that I had learned to drive — not a typical skill among my urban classmates when I was growing up. I weathered their teenage years as best I could, sometimes marveling that only my children could make me scream (and my mother). At the same time, my husband and I vicariously enjoyed the children’s various successes: academic, musical and athletic. They were

blossoming into young adults and we were regularly irritated by them and immensely proud of them. As the children reached their later teenage years, the family dynamic shifted. My husband was terminally ill, and the children were forced to deal with death. My mother and my father had both passed on by then, and the boys had been deeply touched by their loss, but the death of a parent at a far younger age than expected for either their father or themselves struck me as a cruel trick. Somehow we had not lived up to our part of the parenting contract. I guess that was when my children started to become my friends. It probably would have happened around that age anyway, but we became allies in the face of adversity. And then life’s wonderful joys unfurled. ... They graduated, got jobs, found their loved ones and eventually made me a grandmother. That’s a club one can’t apply to oneself, but having arrived there, I can endlessly sing its praises. Bottom line: How ultimately satisfying it is for me to be a mom.

Scenes from a mother’s life

rom the time I was a young girl, I wanted to be a mother. The urge to hold and to love a baby, my baby, was a conscious one. I also had professional ambitions, so in those days, before women expected to be able to do it all, there was a bit of a conflict in my head. Curiously, while I don’t remember telling anyone about my maternal urges, I did mention it on my first date to the man I eventually married. He told me that he too By Leah S. Dunaief looked forward to having children, so the rest is history. When I did have my first child, I was quietly terrified. I was the caboose child in my parents’ families, meaning that my parents were older, and everyone in my generation was already born before I came on the scene. There were no babies for me

Between you and me

to practice on, I had never given a baby a bottle nor changed a diaper, and I was afraid I was inadvertently going to do some terrible harm to a helpless infant. It wasn’t until the baby’s one-month checkup, when the pediatrician exalted about how his development — size and weight — were “off the charts,” that I began to relax and believe the baby would survive my ignorance. After that the parenting urge was so fulfilling that we did it twice more in record time. Judging from my friends’ tales of their children, we had it easy with three boys. They were exceedingly energetic but never moody, didn’t hold a grudge for more than three minutes, weren’t particular about what clothes they wore and could be entertained with a generous supply of miniature trucks on rainy, “indoor” days or any ball game on “outside” days. Baseball on our dead end street was their favorite, and I became a pretty good pitcher, if I do say so myself.
