Smithtown class speakers celebrate By phil corSo
School superintendents, administrators and parents acknowledged and honored the highest achieving students of Suffolk County’s Class of 2015 during the Suffolk County School Superintendents Association’s 21st annual Valedictorian Luncheon, held at the Hyatt Regency Wind Watch Hotel in Hauppauge. Brian Righter from Smithtown High School East and Rebecca Cheng from Smithtown High School West represented Smithtown Central School District at the luncheon. While the Smithtown CSD does not name valedictorians for their
respective high schools, class speakers are chosen to represent each building. The top academic students (with a 4.0 GPA) in each of the two schools vote on whom amongst their peers they would like to see represent them at graduation. The celebratory event was punctuated with music provided by the Islip High School Jazz Ensemble, who performed under the direction of Steve Campanella. Congratulating all of the valedictorians and student representatives on their hard work and academic achievements were Roberta A. Gerold, SCSSA president and Middle CLASS SPEAKERS continued on page A29

Food for thought from Smithtown students A whopping 840 Advanced Placement social studies students from both Smithtown High Schools East and West participated in this year’s edition of the Roger W. Sullivan AP History Conference, a showcase of individual and group research papers that relate to a certain theme in a specific discipline of social studies. Students prepared papers and answered and addressed topical questions and dilemmas pertaining to food and society, this year’s conference topic. Now in its 26th year, the conference asks students enrolled in various courses like AP World History, AP Economics, AP Psychology and more to develop compelling research projects in the form of a written paper, accompanied by a visual presentation. A total of 30 projects, one from each AP class, were selected for panel sessions in which the project creators presented their research to fellow AP students and fielded questions about their work. Panel sessions were moderated by Smithtown AP social studies teachers with help from outside college professors. “It’s a tremendous honor for students to be selected to present at these sessions,” said AP Psychology teacher Chauncy Cone, who coordinated the conference for High School West. Stephen Nadramia, an AP Economics teacher, was the coordinator for High School East. Among the topics students researched and presented were farming and class socialization, the food trade’s
effect on cultures, how food regulations have evolved over the years, the high cost of organic food and child obesity. Conference participants also heard from two experts on the topic of food: Ken Albala and author Pat Willard, who served as keynote speakers. Albala is a professor of history at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California, where he teaches food history and the history of early modern Europe. He is also a visiting professor at Boston University, where he teaches an advanced food history course in the gastronomy program. He has authored and/or edited 16 books on food. Willard has authored four books of her own, including “Pie Every Day,” which was cited by the Atlantic Monthly, Bon Appetit and Amazon.com as among the top 10 cookbooks of 1997. Albala talked about how throughout history power can be defined as control of the food supply. Willard’s talk traced how saffron traveled from its native home in the Middle East to around the world, along the way influencing different societies and cultures — essentially everything from medicine to beauty to cooking, depending on where it surfaced. She also gave each student a bag that held a saffron corm and a few threads. Another part of the day-long activity was a Junior Iron Chef competition, held in conjunction with the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk County. Sixteen AP History students, who were

also home and career students from HSE and HSW, were selected to take part in the competition, which required them to prepare a special dish assigned by program coordinator and community nutrition educator Maryann Birmingham. Students were judged on various elements of their dishes, including preparation, presentation and taste.
According to Director of Social Studies Michael Chlystun, the conference has evolved from 128 participants in 1990, thanks to the expansion of meaningful AP offerings and a genuine growth in student interest through the years. — Phil Corso
LI inventors’ backyard game explodes in popularity RampShot taking over as a new summer favorite By Alex Petroski
Lots of people have ideas. Some say they do their best thinking in the shower. Josh Bonventre’s big idea came while driving home from his day job as a physical education teacher in the ShorehamWading River school district. A few years ago, Bonventre was a typical Long Island husband and dad of three. Now he is the co-founder of RampShot, an outdoor game designed for four players, which involves four racquetball-like spheres and two ramps with built-in nets. Two players make up a team and score points by either tossing the ball into the net or catching the ball after it bounces off the top of the ramp. The idea may sound simple, but taking it from a fleeting daydream in traffic to an award-winning, booming business venture is anything but. Bonventre, along with help from his friend and co-founder Kevin Texeira, set up shop in Bonventre’s detached garage at his Center Moriches home about two years ago. Today, the garage is bursting at the seams with office furniture and packaged RampShots waiting to be shipped. Texeira has since moved from Mount
Sinai to the Finger Lakes area in upstate New York. He is a national sales manager for a cookie company in addition to his responsibilities with RampShot. “Right now our biggest obstacle is getting them made fast enough,” Bonventre said. Bonventre and Texeira launched the company Shore Creations in November, though RampShot is their only game so far. Their trajectory as a company is hardly the norm. Within the first two months of the company’s launch, the duo applied to be recognized by the National Sporting Goods Association as one of its top 10 new products. By April, they were on a plane to Austin, Texas, to attend an NSGA conference and be recognized as one of the top products. In addition, the game was featured on A&E Network’s “Project StartUp.” “They’re a great partner for the sports industry,” Katie Nemec, director of marketing for the NSGA said in an email of Bonventre and Texeira. “Everyday I wake up I just can’t believe what’s happening,” Bonventre said about the success his company has experienced despite being in its infancy. “We’re still at the beginning so for us this is really exciting now. But to think

about the potential for the future is sometimes overwhelming.” Bonventre estimates that he and Texeira have invested somewhere in the neighborhood of $100,000. Both said they dedicate between 30 and 40 hours a

week to RampShot, on top of their normal work schedules and family duties. Texeira remembers the moment when he decided it was time to fully commit to producing and selling RampShot. The RAMPSHOT continued on page A8

Suffolk County tackles toxic toy legislation By Phil Corso
Suffolk County is not playing games when it comes to toxic toys. Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket) saw one of her latest proposals receive unanimous approval last week when the Suffolk County Legislature approved measures that would ban the sale of any toys containing potentially dangerous toxins. The Toxin Free Toys Act zeroes in on six toxins most commonly found in toys marketed to children and will forever ban them once the legislation gets County Executive Steve Bellone’s signature. Hahn said the initiative came as a response to a recent report issued by the New York League of Conservation Voters and Clean and Healthy New York that found several children’s products containing carcinogenic components on the shelves of Long Island stores. Most specifically, the legislation targeted dangerous materials that are linked to cancer, cognitive impairments, hyperactivity and genetic disorders in children, Hahn said. “As a mother, I am outraged that children’s toys contain these toxic chemicals that can cause cancer, learning and developmental disabilities and respiratory, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal disorders,” Hahn said. “By passing this law today, we are acting proactively to protect our children’s health.”
Under the proposal, new children’s products sold in Suffolk County would need to contain less than specified limits in parts per million of the six following components: antimony, arsenic, cadmium, cobalt, lead and mercury. The legislation pegged the county’s Department of Health Services to head up the operation by notifying retailers by the beginning of 2016 that inspectors would be conducting random checks for toys and other children’s products containing toxic content using an x-ray fluorescence analyzer. Clean and Healthy New York released the “Toxic Toys on Long Island” report back in December, which surveyed various retail spots like Target, Party City, Walmart, The Children’s Place, Macy’s, Ocean State Job Lot and Dollar Tree to find that some products contained potentially harmful materials. The report found more than 4,600 children’s products and toys contained at least one of 49 hazardous chemicals. Kathleen A. Curtis, executive director of Clean and Healthy New York, was one of several health and safety advocates to applaud the proposal as an appropriate response to December’s report. “In the absence of a strong state or federal law to regulate toxic chemicals in children’s products, it is both laudable and appropriate for Suffolk County to take action to protect its most pre-

cious and vulnerable residents,” she said. “Hopefully, this action will create a tipping point for New York State to follow suit. Otherwise, more localities will step up and follow Suffolk’s lead.” Marcia Bystryn, president of the New York League of Conservation Voters, has also been at the forefront of the statewide push to limit the kinds of toxins children could be exposed to through their toys. While the state still waits for its own
comprehensive response to toxic toy legislation, Bystryn applauded Suffolk for taking the lead. “Toxic chemicals have no place in children’s toys, and they should not be on store shelves for sale,” Bystryn said. “I applaud bill sponsor Kara Hahn and the Suffolk County Legislature for sending a clear message to parents that they deserve the right to know what dangers are lurking in the products they bring home.”
Officials pledge crackdown on boating while intoxicated By Alex Petroski
Town and county officials aren’t taking boating safety lightly, and are urging residents to take precautions while out on the water this summer. The issue was the topic of discussion at a press conference held at the Sandspit Marina in Patchogue on June 4, following a hit-and-run incident on May 24. Mark Tricarico, 31, of Selden, was arrested and charged with leaving the scene of a boating accident involving injury, according to a Suffolk County Police Department press release. Tricarico allegedly crashed a 23-foot boat into the west jetty at the entrance of the Patchogue River on the night of the 24th. One passenger was treated for minor injuries. Tricarico could not be reached for comment. “If everyone follows safe boating procedures, most accidents can be prevented,” Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) said on June 4, just yards away from the site of the incident. June and July are typically the busiest boating months of the year on Long Island, and Romaine, along with Suffolk
County Police Marine Bureau Deputy Inspector Ed Vitale, urged boaters to be aware of boating laws in the hope of avoiding a repeat of the events of May 24. Romaine and Vitale also reiterated some general boating safety precautions, like avoiding alcohol while operating a boat, being aware of weather forecasts and following paths set by buoys. “Stay in the navigable channels,” Romaine said. “Understand what the buoys are for.” Operating boats while intoxicated was a point everyone touched on. “You don’t see it that often until you see a boat up on the rocks,” Jesse Mentzel, a bay constable, said in a one-on-one interview. “It happens, and they could hit another boat just as easily.” Assistant Deputy County Executive Tim Sini attended the press conference on behalf of Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D). “We want to make one thing clear— boating while intoxicated will not be tolerated in Suffolk County,” Sini said. Sini added that there would be checkpoints and patrols to monitor the waterways and ensure that everyone remains

safe this summer. Some additional safety precautions suggested by Romaine and Vitale included a boating course approved by the U.S. Coast Guard as well as a swimming and first-aid course, operating at safe speeds, and designating an assistant skipper in case you are injured or otherwise unable to assume command of the vessel.
“The water can be a very hostile environment,” Vitale said. “It’s a beautiful looking place and it is truly, but it can be very hostile to people. You have to pay attention. You have to be aware of the weather. You have to be aware of the currents. This is something that, every now and then, people get out on the water and they just don’t get it.”

partners received a phone call one evening from their attorney who informed them that their idea was 100 percent original and would not infringe on any existing patents. Texeira said that for him there was no looking back after that. “It’s been fun for me personally,” Tim Goddeau, operations manager of Micelli Chocolate Mold Co., said in an email. Goddeau’s company manufactures the games. “Anytime you have people who never been in the manufacturing business you get to show them how difficult it can be to make a product.” Bonventre and Texeira are not alone. Rather than cut short this interview, Bonventre’s wife Jackie and son Tyler rose to the occasion when a UPS truck pulled up to their house to pick up an order of 16 games. “It’s my exercise,” Jackie Bonventre said laughing. Tyler was somehow able to hoist three of the boxes up at a time and haul them out to the truck, despite the fact that one box seemed to be about half of his size. “Once I saw the product I knew that he had something so I was supportive of it,” Josh Bonventre said. “Whatever he had to do I was in.” Texeira fondly remembered when he decided to go to his parents and tell them about their idea.
“My dad was a Rocky Point music teacher for 35 years,” Texeira said. “He wasn’t someone who took a lot of risks. They loved the idea that it was a game and they trusted my business background.” Bonventre estimates more than a thousand games have been sold in the past few months. “The other day I come home and there’s a bunch of new orders that came in while I was at work,” he said. “They were from basically every corner of the country.” The game is currently sold in sporting goods stores in the tri-state area, the Midwest, New England and online. Soon a few Bed Bath & Beyond locations on Long Island will carry RampShot. “We just had somebody the other day on Facebook, somebody we don’t know posted to our wall and they have a picture of our game at the beach,” Bonventre said. “She writes ‘probably the best game to play in the sand. Probably the best game ever.’” Bonventre stopped short of declaring RampShot and Shore Creations as his sole source of income in the future. Standing in his garage — turned small business headquarters — Bonventre daydreamed about the future again for a moment. “Two years from now, three years from now, four years from now are we going to be selling 10,000 at a shot?” he pondered. “We obviously won’t be able to do it here.”

Kings Park bids teachers adieu By Victoria Espinoza
Kings Park Board of Education celebrated 12 retirees for their cumulative 261 years of service to the district of Kings Park Tuesday night at the school board meeting. Judith Letterman, assistant principal at Kings Park High School, was one of the many to be leaving the district, as well as Regina Symansky, a special education teacher who has the longest tenure at King Park — a total of 37 years. “I have been blessed to lead such hard working and devoted employees,” Superintendent Timothy Eagen said in a statement. The total list of retirees includes Joan O’Brien, Janice Cassagne, Regina Symansky, Laura Peterson, Judith Letterman, Kevin Johnston, James Fernhoff, Bonnie Capaldo, Dianne Kroog, Cyndia Kopp, Esther Mathie, and Wesley Walker. “On behalf of the Board of Education, I congratulate all of this year’s retirees for their dedication and service to the Kings Park Central School District” said Tom Locascio, president of the board of education. “These individuals have helped shape the lives of thousands of students, faculty and staff, and the collective impact of their time here truly is immeasurable. May the years ahead bring nothing but joy and relaxation.” The board also recognized 25 science fair winners from William T. Rogers Middle School in grades six through eight. Kings Park school district received more than $5,000 in donations, which include athletic equipment and teaching aids.

PEOPLE Honoring Nesconset heavy hitters
As spring progresses toward summer and the baseball season moves forward, players begin to distinguish themselves. The same holds true for our young athletes in Suffolk County. Having hosted the MLB Pitch, Hit & Run in April Legislator Leslie Kennedy (R-Nesconset) had the opportunity to honor those young athletes who participated in the competition. The MLB Pitch, Hit & Run is a baseball skills competition sponsored by Scotts and Major League Baseball and was hosted by Kennedy in conjunction with the Nesconset Athletic Association. It was a crisp April morning when the boys gathered at Browns Road Field in Nesconset to take part in the competition, and those who have distinguished themselves are worthy of praise. The boys honored by the Suffolk County Legislature with certificates on Tuesday had achieved the highest score in pitching, hitting or running, all skills that are pertinent to America’s pastime: baseball.

Hauppauge students in Feal Good Foundation scholarships
John Feal, of the Feal Good Foundation (fealgoodfoundation.com), visited the senior social studies classes at Hauppauge High School this past March. Feal discussed the aftermath of 9/11 with the students and, in particular, the impact on the first responders and how he became an advocate for the Zadroga bill. Martin Aponte, president of the 9/11 Responders Remembered Park in Nesconset, and another first responder also spoke to the students about 9/11, advocacy and community service. Feal generously offered a $500 scholarship to the student who wrote the best essay describing how 9/11 impacted him/her. Participation in government teacher Anne Stebbins said the school district was extremely pleased to announce that Feal and several of the foundation’s board members decided to award Feal Good Foundation scholarships to the following Hauppauge students: Nick Fanti, $1,000; Madison Trebing, $250; and Stephanie Wilson, $250.

Kelly Bossert, center, is congratulated for her top honors in the science fair.
Fort Salonga’s science fair champ Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) welcomed Kelly Bossert and her family to the legislature for its June 2 meeting in order to congratulate her on winning first place in the Third Grade Division of the annual Brookhaven National Lab’s Elementary School Science Fair. Kelly is a thirdgrade student at the Fort Salonga Elementary School. Her project developed from hearing about a house fire, and she wanted to know which were the safest trees and shrubs to plant near a home. In her experiment, Kelly learned that evergreens ignite very quickly and are the hardest to extinguish. Trees and bushes that are classified as waxy or deciduous take longer to ignite and can be quickly extinguished so they are a safer choice. Hauppauge students accept Feal Good scholarships.

Caleb Smith junior anglers are winners
Twenty-seven youths, ages 5-12, enjoyed the tranquility and excitement of fishing during the Friends of Caleb Smith Preserve’s 13th Annual Junior Angler Fishing Tournament on Saturday, June 6. Nearly 40 fish were caught and released into Willow Pond at the Smithtown state park, and six anglers received large fish trophies, while all received ice cream and goody bags loaded with fish-related items. Meanwhile, a snapping turtle, undisturbed at the activity around her, dug a nest and laid her eggs at Site 10 as the young anglers fished at other marked sites around Willow Pond. Winners at the morning session were from ages 5-8:
Lena Umbrino, 8, Kings Park, first prize: catching the most fish with three. Anthony Ross, 6, of Seaford, second prize: largest pan fish with an 8-inch blue gill. Dennis Steele, 6, of Lake Grove, third prize, largest “other” fish caught with an 11.5-inch bass. Winners in the afternoon session were from ages 9-12: Timothy Glover, 11, of Center Moriches, first prize: most fish caught with four. Christopher Belanger, 10, of Smithtown, second prize: largest pan fish at 8.5 inches. Edward Belanger, 12, of Smithtown, third prize: largest “other” fish with a 12.5-inch bass. — Phil Corso

team said they were pleased with the year they put together. “Overall I thought we had a really successful season,” Greco said. “We had a really strong team again this year and I think it showed in counties. Breaking the previous county total was a pretty amazing accomplishment for us.”
Niven, Hall and Greco will all be back for their senior year, keeping Smithtown East’s top three in their order for another season. Greco said she is looking forward to what lies ahead. “I think we’re going to have another strong team,” she said. “Our goal is always to win the county championships and then see what happens from there.” The three rising seniors have played together since middle school.

After failing to make the playoffs last season, the Smithtown East baseball team came back with a vengeance, winning all but the last series of the season when the No. 4 Bulls took on No. 4 Connetquot. After winning the first two games of the season and dropping the third of the series to crosstown rival Smithtown West, the Bulls won seven straight games, before dropping the second game of its series against Half Hollow Hills West. From there, Smithtown East went on another long streak, winning 10 games in a row before its final series of the season. The Bulls bypassed the qualifying round, and topped No. 4 Half Hollow Hills West to take on Connetquot in the semifinals. After dropping the first game of the series, 5-3, the Bulls took the second game by a score of 6-4, to force a decisive game three. In that final game, Smithtown East used a two-out, three-run rally to tie the score at 4-4 in the top of the seventh, but its opponent was able to break the tiebreaker to edge out the Bulls with a 5-4 win to advance to the finals, where the team toped Ward Melville in three games for the Suffolk County
Class AA crown. Smithtown East finished the season with a 20-4 overall record and 17-2 mark in Division III play.
tor in helping her to grow as a golfer. “He keeps me relaxed before counties, because they definitely get my nerves going,” Greco said. “He always tells me to take it one shot at a time and that the only important shot is the one I’m about to hit. He doesn’t just do that for me though, he tells everyone before we play. I use that not only for high school golf, but outside tournaments too, and it really makes a difference.” In addition to the three, Hall said there are several other golfers to look out for in the 2016 season. “I think you should be on the lookout for Jen Leddy, she’s a junior but I think she’ll be great next year,” Hall said. “There’s also freshman Sam Klee that played our No. 6 this year, as well as sophomore Jamie Werner and eighth-grader Alexa Lubomski — they would rotate playing No. 6 throughout the year.” With the season now in the books, the team will have the summer to enjoy before gearing up for next year. Smithtown East will lose Schaefer to graduation, who will continue her golf career at the collegiate level as she heads to Long Island University Post in the fall. “I love how close it was to the city for internship opportunities and their business programs were impressive,” Schaefer said. “Being recruited for the golf team really sealed the deal and sold me.” Overall, Schaefer was thrilled to have ended her high school career with a county championship after the team went 10-0 in League I heading into the postseason. “It’s been an awesome feeling after being part of the team for so long,” she said. “Having my hard work pay off and sharing it with my coaches and everyone that’s been rooting for me has been an unforgettable experience.”

Country school district superintendent of schools; Susan A. Schnebel, SCSSA president-elect and Islip school district superintendent of schools; Charles T. Russo, SCSSA vice president and East Moriches school district superintendent of schools; and Lars Clemensen, SCSSA secretary and Hampton Bays school district superintendent of schools. Keynote speaker Roger Tilles, a member of the New York State Board of Regents, encouraged the valedictorians to always put things in perspective, develop a backbone, become proactive and involved, use imagination and creativity to propel forward, and find a job
celebrating in smithtown
that matters. “Love what you do, and feel that it matters,” Tilles said. “There is no greater fun than that.” Each valedictorian was called to the stage to receive a certificate and gift of recognition. During their acknowledgment, the universities they plan on attending were announced, along with their intended majors. The impressive and prestigious list of schools included Carnegie Mellon University, Columbia University, Duke University, Fordham University, Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Villanova University and Yale University. The SCSSA and its corporate partners also awarded 10 scholarships to graduates planning to pursue a career in education or social services. Photos by Greg Catalano
Scenes from Sunday afternoon’s annual Smithtown Festival Day, presented by the Greater Smithtown Chamber of Commerce. The group dubbed the 27th annual celebration, “Smithtown’s most anticipated family event” on its colorful flyer distributed throughout town over the last several weeks. Residents enjoyed rides, live music, arts and crafts, food and more throughout the day along Main Street in Smithtown. From top left, Representatives from St. Catherine of Siena Medical Center in Smithtown were on hand with giveaways; Young ones make their way through the various inflatable attractions at the event; Antique locomotives are on display throughout the Main Street event; and the Saffer family of Commack enjoys the festival.

OPINION editoriAL
Slower takeoff for drone laws
As a community newspaper, we find ourselves tossing around the phrase “NiMBY” — standing for “not in my backyard” — from time to time. But it’s usually more of an expression, and a negative one, than a literal translation of residents resisting something from going into their actual backyards. But in the case of drones, NiMBY could not be taken more literally. Call them drones, call them unmanned aircraft systems — either way, the public perception of these flying devices is still developing as they buzz around the skies. huntington town attempted this week to ground concerns over these drones when it introduced a resolution that would regulate their use for the betterment of public health, privacy and safety “so that operation of same is respectful of community standards [and] the concerns of residents, as well as protect property and privacy rights,” the resolution said. huntington wasn’t alone in its efforts to come out a step ahead of drone regulation, either. U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer and several other elected leaders have been banging the drone drum for months now, calling on the Federal Aviation Administration to require drones to fly below 500 feet and limit where they can fly. While we understand the legislative urge to keep an eye on the sky for the sake of public privacy and safety, we hope our public leaders don’t turn the drone debate into a droning drain on resources. There are several things to consider when it comes to drawing the legislative line for drones. At what point would new laws encroach upon our personal freedoms? Whose job is it to regulate them? does the regulator depend on how high the drone flies or what jurisdiction is underneath it? Should regulations vary based upon the type of drone? Moving forward, our local municipalities should not jump the gun. officials should properly investigate all the nuts and bolts of the drone industry and be careful when determining where governments should step in. Flying a drone is not like flying a kite, and we, like many of our neighbors, are concerned about personal privacy and public safety. All we ask is that our elected officials consider the whole subject carefully before inking laws.
One letter writer is expressing concerns over recent Memorial Day Parade attendance.
Small crowds to the editor: i am a veteran. i was drafted back in “those” days, but nevertheless, i gave four years of my life to my country. i am part of the 1 percent of all Americans who have also given part of their lives to the benefit of the 99 percent who could pursue the life of their dreams without interruption. i have lived in this community for 41 years. A wealthy and upscale community, according to those who gather such facts. i am not
wealthy, by any means. i moved here during a national economic downturn. i have participated in the organization of 40 Memorial day parades. This year’s spectator crowd was the smallest i have ever witnessed. Boy Scouts selling poppies and little American flags made the least number of sales in 40 years. The crowds along the parade route just weren’t there. VFW 3054, which invites everyone back to the post for free hot dogs, beer and bottles of water, gave away about 70 percent less than they had previously planned.

The perennial trauma of public speaking
D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

e talk constantly. We speak to our spouses when we wake up, to our children when we try to get them up, to our friends on the way to work, to the person preparing our morning bagel, and on and on. Most of that speech is automatic. “Hey, how are you doing?” “Great, you?”
“Can’t complain. I mean, I could complain but who’d listen?” When we’re not talking, we often hear an internal dialogue. “Why didn’t you demand a raise?” “Next time, next time.” “You’re always saying that. This is next time.” “Hey, stop yelling at me!” Words are as natural most of the time as the steps we take on the way to or from the car, down the block, or up the stairs. We don’t think, “Left, right, left, right.” Wait, no, isn’t it, “Right, left, left, right, right?” And yet, something happens to the natural flow of words when we have to give a speech. It’s not the same for everyone. I suspect many politicians are so comfortable giving speeches that they just need to know where the camera is to share their eloquence. That’s not exactly the word I’d use to describe the times I’ve had to speak in front of large, or
even medium-sized groups. I’ve spoken out in meetings many times about stories, offering my opinion or awareness of the history of an evolving story to a group of editors. I’m fine in those situations. It’s when I get up in front of a group of people, many of whom I don’t know, to share some words on a subject that the discomfort begins. I lick my lips regularly before I begin, as the saliva that pours forth from my mouth so readily at other times has decided that this moment is the ideal time to take a vacation. My breathing becomes shallow and quick. “I, uh, would, uh, like to, uh, say a few words.” Speeches are like walking on the bottom of the ocean, wearing heavy boots and breathing through a small tube. Suddenly, the words become like unknown and unseen obstacles, blocking the path to communicating something charming,
witty, insightful and cohesive. “Uh, hi, I’m, uh, uh, Dan, right, Dan.” Why do those public words become so unfamiliar and uncomfortable? Is it because we can’t correct them? Do we feel as if we need to perform the words instead of just sharing what’s percolating in our minds at the time? In the middle of a speech, we can’t say, “Where was I? Oh, yes, that’s it. I could really use a tuna sandwich right now.” I recently gave a short speech in front of a group celebrating my brother’s birthday. I didn’t know many of the people in the room and even though it was a receptive audience, I started to feel the typical nerves building up in those last few moments. The speech went fine, or so people have assured me. But then, of course, the voices in my head shared their customary public-speech criticism. I became like all those pundits
I started to feel the typical nerves building up.
who second guess every word and decision after an election or after the big game. “You know,” I thought to myself, “you should have started with this joke. That would have been funnier.” “Oh yeah?” I wanted to bark back at that self-critical voice. “Where were you 10 minutes ago?” “I was here, you just couldn’t hear me because too many other voices were up here, shouting into your ear not to mess up.” Yet it always seems to turn out all right. Until the next time.

Happy Birthday to my smart best friend
between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

eddy will be 10 years old this week. Who is Teddy? That’s an interesting question that we have frequently debated over the years. Ostensibly Teddy is a dog, a gorgeous golden retriever, on the large and hairy side. But we who live with him know differently. While he masquerades as a dog, trotting around the house drinking and eating from his dog bowls and otherwise sleeping and greeting, we know he is much too wise to be a dog. I’ve not been a believer
in reincarnation particularly, but if there is such a process, Teddy is the real deal. We’ve speculated on which of our ancestors he might be, and we’ve not come up with a certain identity. But there is no question regarding his intelligence. For example, when we are sitting in the living room and talking, he will curl up in the center of the room and join the conversation. Really. To the extent that he is able, he communicates with throaty and moaning sounds up and down the human scale. When he wants to go out, he will come over to where I am reading and try to look me in the eye. If I refuse to meet his gaze, he will plop his head across the newspaper or book I am holding, forcing me to acknowledge his presence. When I do, he will jerk his head in the direction of the front door repeatedly until I get up to get the leash. Then he will bound toward the door while uttering a series of falsetto sounds clearly expressing his joy.
OK, so that’s not so brilliant. Every dog knows how to communicate its biological needs to its walker. But consider this. It’s raining, dark and late. I’m standing in front of him, leash in hand, asking encouragingly, “Want to go out?” No response. “Want to go out?” I ask again. Unmoving, he will shake his head from side to side. He has mastered the body language for “no.” He can also spell. If the time is right for his next outing and I interrupt the conversation with my family by asking if anyone wants to take him o-u-t, he will jump up and rush toward the door with the ritual histrionics. Goldens do have the most expressive brown eyes. Sometimes, when I have something on my mind and no one else is around to overhear my monologue, I will talk to Teddy and he will fix his limpid eyes on me all the while. Now he may just be thinking, “What on earth is she carrying on about?” hoping that, if he stays still long enough, in the end I will give him a dog cookie. But that’s the wonderful

thing about dogs: They never seem to have pejorative thought about the people who care for them. One of their greatest attributes is that they can’t repeat what you tell them. They can only listen sympathetically. We should all be so smart. Teddy loves broccoli and kale, especially when prepared with some garlic. He also eats yellow and red peppers, spinach, mushrooms and onions, all with gusto. He does not eat tomatoes nor bananas. Teddy bears his age with grace. In human years, he is in his 70s, and his hips give testimony. He has some distinguished white hairs among the gold around his muzzle, and he definitely likes to sleep a little later in the mornings. He has developed an impressive snore. Our daily walks are a stately event. No longer do I have to keep him on the leash for fear he will dash off to the nearby beach or visit his friends in the adjoining yards. He is content to walk at a moderate pace beside me

Teddy, the golden retriever, bears his age with grace. — most of the time. When a rabbit crosses our path, he will look at it almost quizzically, as if wondering why he used to get all steamed up chasing a bunny. A cat? Not so much. He will still go off in pursuit of one — for at least 50 feet — and then return to my side looking mildly embarrassed. He needn’t be because one of his endearing traits is his playfulness. I never scold him for being a dog, even a dog in disguise. And I appreciate that, even if he is past retirement age, he still works at his job. He knows that his job is to guard the house, and if anyone should drive up in a car he doesn’t recognize, he will let loose with a series of ferocious baritone barks. That is, if he hasn’t slipped downstairs for a civilized afternoon nap. Happy Birthday, Teddy.
