Suffolk County Police arrested two teens Dec. 6 for causing approximately $23,000 in damage to a parked vehicle in Hauppauge in August. Apostolos Calamara, 17, and a 15-yearold male damaged a 2012 Mercedes Sprinter van that was parked at 400 East Rabro Drive on Aug. 29. The teens used a stolen handicap sign to break windows and a wooden pole to damage the exterior of the vehicle. In addition, they etched graffiti, including a swastika, into the van with a sharp object. Following an investigation, Hate Crimes Unit detectives arrested Calamara, a Hauppauge resident, and the juvenile and charged them with second-degree criminal mischief. No attorney information was immediately available for Calamara, and the juvenile was issued an appearance ticket and released to his parents.

Pedestrian killed in Smithtown car crash By Victoria Espinoza Victoria@tBrnEwspapErs.com Suffolk County Police Fourth Squad detectives are investigating a motor vehicle crash that killed a pedestrian in Smithtown on the morning of Dec. 5. Gregg Mofle, of Smithtown, was driving a 2012 Chevrolet van west on Jericho Turnpike near Wyandanch Boulevard when he hit Vito Dispigna, of

Shirley, who was standing in the right lane at approximately 5:45 a.m. Dispigna, 59, was pronounced dead at the scene by a physician assistant from the Office of the Suffolk County Medical Examiner. Mofle, 47, was not injured. The Chevrolet was impounded for a safety check and the investigation is continuing. Detectives are asking anyone with information on this crash to call the Fourth Squad at 631-854-8452.

budget Continued from page A3 Lindsay’s proposal states that at present each county legislator receives a salary, is assigned three paid staff members and is entitled to a district office, among other benefits. If this legislation passes, it would not go into effect until 2021, after the county district lines are set to be redrawn. Lindsay’s suggestions all take aim at relieving some of Suffolk’s budgetary issues. Legislators, a credit rating agency and the director of the Budget Review Office for the Legislature have said the county’s financial situation is dire. Robert Lipp, director of the Budget Review Office, expressed concerns in his assessment of the county budget. “How are we able to provide services at needed levels when facing a structural

deficit that is far in excess of $100 million in each of the past several years? It is a conundrum,” Lipp said in a letter accompanying his review of the budget in October. “The short answer is that the county’s structural deficit is increasingly driving our decisions. As a result, some initiatives, that may be considered crucial, are funded without regard for our ability to pay, while others are funded at less than needed levels because of our deficit position.” He said the county has set a bad precedent by borrowing money to pay for operating expenses. The credit rating entity Moody’s Investors Service has projected a negative credit rating outlook for the county due to outstanding debt and a reliance on borrowing. Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) said the budget is deeply flawed, but he does not believe either of Lindsay’s proposals would help fix the problem. “This is pennies compared to the prob-

lems we have,” Trotta said in a phone interview. “It’s showboating.” The District 12 representative is most concerned with the county’s contract with the Suffolk County Police Department, which he said costs Suffolk $135,000 per day. “We’re in these binding arbitrations that we have no ability to pay,” he said. Trotta’s primary concern is contractual pension and pay increases for county police officers. The county and the Police Benevolent Association agreed on the current contract in 2011, which runs through 2018. Trotta, a former SCPD detective, estimated for every 200 cops that retire, it could cost the county more than $60 million. “We need to generate businesses and growth, but we can’t afford to,” he said. Trotta said a five-year salary freeze for legislators is equivalent to a grain of sand on the beach, but he would support a salary freeze of all government employees. As for a reduction in members, he said he doesn’t think that goes far enough either.

“It should be six or seven members,” he said. However, Trotta warned fewer representatives could put grassroots campaigns at a disadvantage with more ground to cover in a single district. Ultimately he called the idea a double-edged sword. Lindsay’s proposal acknowledged this concern, stating districts would still be small enough to “allow underfunded candidates to compete effectively in legislative races and permit winning candidates to provide excellent services to their constituents.” Legislator Sara Anker (D-Mount Sinai) said she supports the five-year freeze. She froze her own salary in 2011. “We need to show we can be an example, that we’re cutting back during fiscally challenging times,” she said in a phone interview. But Anker doesn’t back a smaller Legislature. “If you have less representation, that’s not in the best benefit for the public.”

history

Lessons of Pearl Harbor By Rich AcRitelli “I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and him with terrible resolve.” Japanese Admiral Yamamoto Isoroku, the architect of the attacks on Pearl Harbor 75 years ago, supposedly uttered these words as he assessed the immediate aftermath of Dec. 7, 1941. Up until Japan attacked, most Americans still subscribed to the popular sentiment of remaining out of the conflict, inspired by the words of Charles Lindbergh — “America first.” The America First Committee openly resented any notion that the United States should prepare for war. Even the first peacetime draft conducted in 1940 that expanded the military forces received stiff anti-war congressional opposition. While German tanks easily invaded France and later pushed through the Soviet Union, officers like Dwight D. Eisenhower, Omar N. Bradley and George S. Patton still saw the cavalry play a major role within the mobility of the Army. All of this changed when Japanese fighter planes swarmed into Hawaii and attacked the air, naval and Army bases that manned the “jewel” of our forces in the Pacific Ocean. When word of the attack spread to Washington, D.C., Secretary of State Cordell Hull was in the midst of negotiating with his Japanese counterpart. After a couple of choice words for the diplomat, the nation was rapidly placed on track for war. Within seconds, Americans were on lines blocks long to enter the service. President Franklin D. Roosevelt addressed the nation with his “Day of Infamy” speech that was adopted as a rallying cry by American citizens to defeat the Axis powers. Unlike the political gridlock seen today, Roosevelt’s words were accepted

without reservation, and supporters and opponents of the president’s New Deal listened to the beloved leader. The “sleeping giant” of productivity, strength and endurance was awakened to defeat a global enemy. Prominent baseball players like Yogi Berra, Bob Feller, Ted Williams, Hank Greenberg and Yankee Manager Ralph Houk hung up their uniforms during the prime of their careers to support the war effort. By the end of 1942, the size of the U.S. armed forces had doubled from the previous year. The enthusiasm could be traced to a commitment to avenge Pearl Harbor and defeat Hitler and the Nazis. Americans today do not realize how close the Allies came to losing the war. Although the U.S. government was fully committed to fighting and helping its allies, America had a steep learning curve in teaching its young men the ways of modern warfare. The Japanese crippled America’s naval forces and Hitler looked unstoppable in Europe, but Roosevelt promised armed forces would be fighting the enemy in the Pacific and in North Africa before the close of 1942. Americans were drafted so quickly into the military that there were not enough uniforms, weapons, tanks or trucks for them to utilize for their training. Longtime Wading River resident Michael O’Shea, who passed away in 2009, was a navigator in a B-17 Flying Fortress and experienced the earliest aspects of the war efforts. The New York City kid watched Yankee games and attended Stuyvesant High School. Like other young men, O’Shea was horrified by the attack on Pearl Harbor and wanted to forgo his senior year to enter the military. His parents were adamant that he finish high school before enlisting. As

He was not issued a uniform, did not have many knowledgeable instructors, and the lack of heat in the military housing made people sick. The local resident flew 24 combat missions and had the rare experience of being shot down twice over Europe. He was later imprisoned in Stalag Luft III, the same camp depicted in the film “The Great Escape.” In the spring of 1945, Patton’s Third Army liberated O’Shea. He was present to see the noted armored general speak to all of the freed Americans. O’Shea was a good friend to Rocky Point High School, where he was

a proud representative of the “Greatest Generation” and spoke about his crusade against totalitarian powers. It was 75 years ago that America was propelled into a war it did not choose, but the people worked together and completely sacrificed for the safety and security of a thankful nation. Citizens like O’Shea, without hesitation, risked their lives for the wellbeing of the country. On this Pearl Harbor anniversary, may we never forget those men and women who were lost and wounded in the defense of this nation and continue to do so today at home and abroad. Joseph Lalota of the Rocky Point History Honor Society contributed to this story.

sports Rebuilding over as Kings Park looks to be serious contender By Bill landon In his third year as Kings Park boys’ basketball head coach, Christopher Rube looks to turn the corner after two losing seasons, and will rely on his core of returning players to do so. Co-captain Paul Cooper, a returning All-Conference player brings experience and senior leadership to the court in his fourth year on the varsity team. Already this season, he shot his 1,000th career point. Rube said that his player is an excellent ball handler who has a nose for the rim. Cooper, who has received two AllCounty nods while on the football team, is being actively recruited by Division III colleges to play both sports. “I see a lot of improvement — we were competitive in my freshman year, but the last two years we’ve been rebuilding,” Cooper said. “Everyone’s getting used to the new coach and now everyone is buying in and we should have a good season.” Rube said the last two years have been steppingstones. The Kingsmen finished 5-10 last year, and 4-11 the year before. Rube indicated his returning players have improved drastically over that time. “Compared to where we were the last two seasons, we’re at a spot where we should be much more competitive,” he said. “I’m pleased with our efforts defensively — their unselfishness and willingness to pass the ball and find the open man. This year they did more work in the offseason than the previous two years, and they’ve developed a work ethic.” He’s also looking forward to what cocaptain Richie Price will bring to the court.

“This year it’s serious — everyone is invested in the program and no one’s selfish,” said Price, who is a three-year varsity returner. “This season everyone’s focused about the success of the team. Our defense has come a long way, so if we can be a solid defensive team we’re going to be hard to beat.” Bolstering the core of this year’s squad is returning sophomore Andrew Bianco, who started as a freshman. Rube expects big things from his player. “He has improved tremendously and will be one of our primary scorers,” the head coach said. “He’s tough around the ball, he can crash the boards and can step out and shoot 3-pointers.” Bianco agreed with Price that everyone is focused on the greater good of the team. “We share the ball more and we have good shooting,” Bianco said. “But we’re going to need to work on our plays on offense to be ready for Bellport to open the season [at home, Dec. 20].” Price agreed with Cooper that the two teams to beat in League IV this season will be Half Hollow Hills West and Deer Park. Bianco sees Babylon as a greater threat than Deer Park, though. The Kingsmen will host Half Hollow Hills West Jan. 3, travel to Deer Park three days later and return home to face West Babylon Jan. 10. “They’re at a point where they know that everybody needs to be able to shoot the ball, make the extra pass and work on being more consistent,” Rube said. “We look very good in flashes, but we need to put that together for all 32 minutes of play.”

The memorial to the USS Arizona sits above the sunken aircraft carrier in Pearl Harbor on the island of Oahu in Hawaii.

Pearl Harbor: A turning point for America There are moments in American history that change the course of our democracy, and our lives. Several have come out of a clear blue morning sky. Dec. 7, 1941 in Hawaii began with just such a morning.. But it was not just “a date that will live in infamy,” in the words of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (D), which he used to begin a speech to Congress and the American people the day after the surprise bombing on the naval base at Pearl Harbor. It was also a day that marked a major transition for the United States of America. “I think December 7, 1941, is perhaps the most important day in American history,” Paul Sparrow, director of the FDR Library in Hyde Park said in an interview aired on CBS Sunday Morning television last weekend. “It is the transition day when we shifted from being an isolationist nation to being a global superpower.” Roosevelt initially did his best to keep the country out of World War II. The Great Depression had taken a toll on the American people, and the memory of the destruction and lives lost in World War I still lingered. When faced with the destruction of an entire fleet of aircraft carriers docked in Pearl Harbor — and the fighter planes that they were meant to deploy — Roosevelt knew he had to make a swift and decisive response to an attack he called “unprovoked and dastardly.” Roosevelt’s rallying cry was met with an immediate response from a unified and committed nation. America retooled, fought and took on a leadership role in the world it has maintained ever since. Seventy-five years later, we might be experiencing another total policy realignment. Will the new administration, with its Americafirst doctrine, lead us back to pre-Pearl Harbor isolationism? One of the most important parts of American tradition since 1941 is our willingness to lend a hand to other countries and support them. Though it remains to be seen what values our new commander in chief will maintain, we must not forget our history.

Hello, My name is Stacey Wohl, founder and owner of Northport-based CAUSE Brands. Last year, I launched Our Coffee with a Cause, an online coffee retailer, in response to the growing concern for local individuals with special needs who are looking for job opportunities and a learning environment to acquire real-life skills. My children, Brittney and Logan, each have severe autism, which worried me about their futures. As they have gotten older, I have come to realize that their disabilities don’t make them incapable, but I felt they would not get a chance like everyone else to succeed. Although 53 million adults in the United States are living with a disability, as many as 70 percent of this working-age population are currently unemployed. Earlier this year, I opened a new storefront, Cause Café, located at 1014 Fort Salonga

Road in Northport. As with my original CAUSE brand, Cause Café’s mission is to integrate individuals with cognitive delays alongside their typically developing peers to help provide them with the skills necessary to live a successful and fulfilling life. Most recently, we launched our Baked with a Cause line of cookies, brownies and cupcakes, which are available online or instore. We also offer our CAUSE bar and chocolate-covered CAUSE espresso beans. In addition to being a delectable gift item, our CAUSE brand coffee, sweets and baked goods products make the perfect addition to any holiday gathering. Enclosed please find a flyer, which highlights the coffee products available for sale at www.ourcoffeewithacause.net, as well as the baked goods that can be ordered in-store to accompany any holiday spread by calling us at 631-651-8667.

A portion of the proceeds from our sales benefit Our Own Place, a nonprofit organization I founded in 2012 to provide unique opportunities to specialneeds children and their single parents. The mission of the organization is to support businesses and other organizations that provide valuable resources to children and adults with cognitive disabilities.

A look at the problems with Black Lives Matter I was dismayed, disgusted and egregiously offended by your support of BLM and their portrayal on your front page. BLM is a vicious gang of thugs who have no apparent purpose except depriving others — including Bernie Sanders — of their right to free speech and to violently attack anyone in their way. They would not exist except for the dirty money of the world’s most evil billionaire, George Soros. Their very name is a fraud because they couldn’t care less about the thousands of blacks killed every year in gang violence. The only black lives they care about are those lost — in most cases — by criminals confronting

and antagonizing police. And they ignore the power of all the blacks who constitute the power structure of this country ... from the president, the attorney general, the presidential advisors and cabinet secretaries and the hundreds of black mayors, chiefs of police and policemen in every city and town who enforce the law. Do you agree with BLM that all these black leaders hate their fellow black sisters and brothers? And how many scholarships has BLM given to black students? None! How many encouraged to graduate high school? None! How many helped to start businesses? Less than zero because of all the

black businesses BLM has burned to the ground! In the end, if BLM doesn’t like all the blacks and Democrats they keep electing and re-electing, why don’t they elect someone else instead of just beating up people and burning cars? And why doesn’t this “newspaper” print news instead of being Karl Marx’ definition of useful idiots, copying whatever social fad their rich friends think may be cool this week, while mindlessly carrying out the goals of the most hurtful elements of the society.

opinion The day our kids bend down to look us in the eye

T

he first time we hold them, they fit into the corner of our arms with room to spare. Their impossibly small pink toes fit neatly in our eyelids as we kiss their wiggling feet. We lower their grocery-sack-sized bodies gently into their cribs. During the day we bring food to their toothless mouths, and their bodies process the food as they take what they need and leave the rest for us to clean and remove. Suddenly they are coasting, By Daniel Dunaief looking into the side of a couch, a chair or our legs, standing for the first time. Amid the cheers and squeals, they fall and

D. None of the above

we rush to the floor near them and congratulate them. Before long we’re bending down, gently holding tiny hands engulfed in our oven-mitt-sized palms. From their first walking steps, they progress to trotting. It’s a wonderful yet terrible transition, as their developing minds can’t process dangers at the same rate that their feet propel them. We keep up or race ahead, making sure they don’t step off a curb until all movement on the street has stopped. They no longer want to sit in the car seat. They arch backs that are shorter than our arms, making it impossible to buckle them in. We distract them enough to close the clasps, run to the front seat and bring the car to a high enough speed that they sleep. We take them roller skating, skiing or ice skating. We start them early so they’ll become naturals. Brilliant idea, except that they need us to put our hands under their armpits to keep them upright. After a time far too short

for our kids’ liking, our backs scream to stop. We can’t bend down or our spines will go on strike. At that point, these small people want hot chocolate or the chance to try skiing, snowboarding or rollerblading on their own. We stand on a field, tossing a ball lightly near their gloves. They throw the ball back in our general direction, discouraged that they haven’t discovered the magic of a catch. We get down on one knee, look them in the eye, pull up their small chins and smile, hoping we can teach the mechanics of throwing before they become too upset to keep trying. We protect their heads from colliding with the tops of tables, reach for glasses from the cabinet, and help them into the seats at restaurants where their feet dangle far from the floor. Pretty soon, they want to ride a bike. We promise to hold on but our backs, yet again, have other ideas. They shout at us for letting go or,

maybe, they decide they want to do it on their own because they saw Timmy down the street on his bike. Their faces, arms and legs get longer, they pick up speed everywhere they go and, before long, their heads are above the level of the kitchen table. They reach down to pet the neighbors’ big dog, and they sit in restaurant chairs with enormous feet that rest on the floor and which we wouldn’t dare put anywhere near our eyelids. We no longer have to bend our necks to kiss the tops of their heads. In fact, with their braces gleaming in the sun, they stare or glare from under the long hair of adolescence directly into our eyes. Pretty soon we hope, as we go to sleep each night, they will be taller than we are. Wonderful as that moment is, maybe — just for an instant — we remember that the head perched atop this growing body is the same one that fit so snugly into our arms all those years ago.

No humbug at Port Jeff’s Dickens festival, just cheer and comfort

T

his is a big THANK YOU to the Village of Port Jefferson and all those who worked hard to transform the village into the Charles Dickens Festival. For the 21st year in a row, the seaside village came to life in the time of Dickens, with decorations, lights, greenery and especially costumed characters roaming the streets and welcoming visitors. This year, a second THANK YOU for naming us, Times Beacon Record News Media, the honoree for the event. The entire By Leah S. Dunaief weekend was a thrill, for us and for the thousands of people who chatted with the characters, shopped in the many varied stores, ate in the wide selection of restaurants, rode in the horse-drawn carriage, enjoyed the festival of trees and took in the harbor views. How do I know? I asked the festivalgoers, because I was there every day from Thursday to Sunday,

Between you and me

and they told me how they decided to come into the village. Some came from Connecticut, enthusiastic about the magical event because they had visited before and knew of the many fun activities. It also helped that Port Jefferson ferry general manager, Fred Hall, offered a two-for-one price special during the weekend. The 10:30 a.m. boat on Saturday morning had 300 walk-ons alone, and they came without cars so no parking problems, and they had money in their pockets to spend for a good time. And people came from towns to the east and west, responding to the publicity and reputation surrounding the annual fantasy on the Long Island Sound. Everyone might take the festival for granted after all these years, but I know how it came about because I was also there at the beginning. It was the brainchild of Jeanne Garant, the mayor at the time and mother of the present mayor, Margot Garant. Jeanne, a woman of vision, wanted the many organizations and groups to come together and work as a whole on a project to strengthen the sense of community and to celebrate the village. And she figured it wouldn’t hurt if the project helped the local businesses. So the first weekend in December was designated

as the ideal time to capture some of the holiday shopping, and the theme was to be the Dickens stories and characters, who would come alive during those couple of days. And so it happened. This was no small project to get the organizers’ arms around. Among those invited to offer their talents and to hold special events was the Greater Port Jefferson-Northern Brookhaven Arts Council, which would become the managing body alongside Port Jefferson Village, the historical society, the school district, the churches, various cultural paeans like Theatre Three (“A Christmas Carol”) and Harbor Ballet Theatre (“The Nutcracker”), the chamber of commerce and the civics, the constables, the ferry company, music groups, the harbormaster, the individual businesses and the residents just for starters. Events were designed for all age groups. Eventually the Currier & Ives-like ice skating rink — another Jeanne Garant idea — joined the enchanting picture. And a special THANK YOU to nationally famed and charming confection artist, Pat Darling, for once again creating the whimsical Santa’s Workshop in the historic Drowned Meadow Cottage on West Broadway. There are new offerings each year,

and this past weekend Mrs. Cratchit’s Colorful Christmas Crafts was one such in the Village Center, along with an expanded Festival of Trees that each sponsor creatively decorated. Port Jefferson Village was rich with events running through Saturday and Sunday. Indeed, it required more than two full pages in our Official Festival Guide just to list them in their many different locations hosted by the various community groups. So the original vision of a unified village has once again been realized. And the businesses were delighted with the results. “Never had an empty table all weekend,” one restaurateur said. “Shoppers buying all afternoon,” a jewelry store owner said. Dickensian pleasure will go on throughout December this year, with the decorations and specials. And I would like to end on a personal note. I have watched countless parades in my lifetime as a child, a mother and a grandmother, but until this weekend, I had never been on a parade float. As the honoree of the Dickens weekend, I got to ride atop the ferry float and to wave at the thousands of people and shower them with (artificial) snow as they waved back, calling out greetings. What fun! We are deeply honored to have been appreciated in this way.
