Rocky Point Historical Society, Tesla center, receive grants By Desirée Keegan Thousands of dollars have made their way to North Shore historical nonprofits, which will help continue to preserve Long Island’s rich history and educate others on it. The Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation funds Long Island’s history-based 501(c)(3)s, museums and universities to help with object conservation, historical preservation, education programs and exhibits. The organization was established in memory of Gardiner’s Island, a part of East Hampton town. “The foundation grants have become highly completive,” Executive Director Kathryn Curran said. “For this round, the board reviewed 43 applicants that covered every form of historic outreach. Projects included restorations, exhibitions, programs and collection digitization.” Most recently, Rocky Point Historical Society, Friends of Science East Inc., Suffolk County Historical Society, The Nature Conservancy, 3rd NY Regiment Long Island Companies and Stony Brook Foundation, among others, were the 2016 first round recipients. Joseph Attonito, chairman of the board of directors, said there were many great groups to choose from. “It is very gratifying to have so many worthwhile organizations overseeing our local heritage and preserving our history,” he said. “Bob Gardiner would be very pleased.” Rocky Point Historical Society received

‘It is important to keep this historic house in good shape. We would’ve had a hard time fundraising that money.’ — Natalie Aurucci Stiefel File photo by erin Duenas

The noah Hallock House will undergo renovations with rocky Point Historical society’s newly received grant money. $7,5000 for restoration use and, according to historical society President Natalie Aurucci Stiefel, the funds are being used for repairs and restoration of The Noah Hallock House, built in 1721.

“We feel very privileged to have the foundation choose us for that grant,” she said. “It is important to keep this historic house in good shape. We would’ve had a hard time fundraising that money.”

According to Stiefel, the house, which holds tours on Saturdays between 1 and 3 p.m., was the birthplace of revolutionary soldiers, and had the possibility of being torn down several years ago before Mark Baisch, owner of Landmark Properties in Rocky Point, stepped in to help. “We still have staircases that the servants and slaves used,” Stiefel said. “It’s filled with artifacts and photographs from the 18th and 19th century, and there’s even a 20th century room dedicated to the radio history of Rocky Point.” The 3rd NY Regiment Long Island Companies was awarded $12,000 to substitute payment customarily made by collaborators, host sites and venues during the campaign season, allowing those organization to apply those resources to other priorities associated with their missions. The Regiment partakes in re-enactments to educate Long Islanders on the Revolutionary War. “They are quite an extraordinary group of volunteers who perform a vital role in helping our county’s residents and visitors get a very personal education about colonial life and the role Long Island played in the Revolutionary War,” Richard Barons, the executive director of the East Hampton Historical Society, said. Friends of Science East Inc., more commonly known as Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyffe in Shoreham, received $17,500 for capacity-building technology

Above photo from Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s office; file photo below by Erin Duenas

Above, U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin, New York State Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan, Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone and Assemblyman Steve Englebright affix their signatures to an Aug. 4 letter to President Barack Obama and EPA officials reiterating New York State’s opposition to dredge spoils dumping in Long Island Sound. Below, Cedar Beach in Mount Sinai, which flows into the Long Island Sound, is affected by the dumping of dredged sludge.

Governor says he’ll sue over dumping in local waters BY DONNA NEwMAN Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) is threatening to sue. State lawmakers have joined forces across the aisle to issue a demand to both the federal government and the Environmental Protection Agency regarding the dumping of dredged sludge in the Long Island Sound at two existing sites. At Sunken Meadow State Park Aug. 4, New York office-holders from multiple levels of government presented a united front. Gov. Cuomo (D) warned U.S. President Barack Obama (D) and the EPA that a plan to create a third disposal site poses a “major” threat to the ecologically vital habitat and blocks progress to end openwater dumping in Long Island’s waters. He and Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) wrote letters to Obama, EPA Administrator Regina McCarthy and EPA Regional Administrator H. Curtis Spalding about their opposition. The dredging of Connecticut harbors and rivers, meant to deepen waterways to allow ships clear passage, produces sludge that is being open dumped in the Long Island Sound, according to Englebright’s office. Local environmentalists are also concerned with the practice being used long-term. “We are grateful for the strong support of Governor Cuomo and our local state legislators in opposing this ill-conceived plan and putting the federal government on notice that the Long Island Sound is off limits for the dumping of dredge spoils,” George Hoffman of the Setauket Harbor Task Force, a North Shore group that works for clean water in Setauket and Port Jefferson harbors, said in a statement.

Should the federal agency continue its plan to allow dumping of dredge spoils in eastern Long Island Sound, New York State will pursue legal action against the EPA, Cuomo said. In 2005, the EPA struck an accord with the governors of New York and Connecticut to reduce or limit the disposal of dredged material in the Sound by examining alternative placement practices. Two sites— Western Long Island Sound and Central Long Island Sound — were designated on Long Island to be used for that purpose. On April 27, the EPA proposed the designation of a dredged material disposal site in the Eastern region of Long Island Sound, a third dumping location that would continue open-water dumping of dredge waste

in the Eastern Long Island Sound for as long as 30 years. The two sites open now are set to close Dec. 23. Englebright doesn’t see the latest proposal as a step in the right direction — according to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, approximately 22.6 million cubic yards of dredging will be done over the next 30 years. “The draft appears to be the same open water dredge-dumping plan we have seen before,” he said. “Federal, state and local governments have spent billions of taxpayer dollars to clean up the Long Island Sound and significant progress has been made … continued dredge dumping will make the task of cleaning up the sound so much more difficult.”

The EPA has maintained that dredging is a necessary part of keeping the sound passable for ships. “Dredging is needed to ensure safe navigation in the sound,” EPA spokesman John Martin said in an email. “The EPA has not made a final decision, but we believe the proposal strikes an appropriate balance between the need for dredging to maintain safe and efficient navigation and our desired outcome to restore and protect Long Island Sound.” He referred to the Sound as a nationally significant estuary that has seen the return of dolphins and humpback whales during the past year, thanks to cleanup efforts. New York State Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan (R-East Northport) agreed that the state has made significant investments to repair decades of damage. “Real progress is being made, which makes the EPA’s recent proposal to expand the number of dredged material sites in the sound even more difficult to comprehend,” he said. “I fully support using whatever resources the state has at its disposal to fight the EPA’s plan and protect the long-term health of the sound so that it will continue to be an environmental and economic asset for future generations of Long Islanders.” In his letter to the agency and the White House, Cuomo stressed his intentions to take action to protect Long Island’s waters if the EPA fails to comply with lawmakers’ requests. “If EPA ignores New York’s objections and finalizes its rule to permanently designate an open water disposal site in eastern Long Island Sound,” Cuomo said, “ I will take all necessary steps to challenge the rule and stop it from being implemented.” Victoria Espinoza, Desirée Keegan and Alex Petroski contributed reporting.

Town continues to fight blight Grant money would help Brookhaven fund current code enforcement project By Wenhao Ma Brookhaven Town is doing everything it can to clean up neighborhoods in their area. The town board unanimously passed a resolution to submit a grant application to the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services to request funding for the Town Fire Marshals’ Anti-Blight Housing Code Enforcement Project July 21. The town hopes to receive $25,000 from the state government to help with the cost of assessing neglected homes. The Anti-Blight Housing Code Enforcement Project, according to town spokesman Kevin Molloy, has been going on for three-and-a-half years. It was designed to assess the abandoned properties that have harmful conditions and come up with resolutions to either repair or remove them. All the grant money, if approved, will be spent on the assessments of the homes. A mobile app is being developed for residents to report blighted buildings. Molloy said the town’s law department and the fire marshal are responsible for the assessments. If the town attorney or fire marshal determines a house to be a threat to the neighborhood, the town may contact the owner, or when necessary, demolish the house, according to Brookhaven Town Code. The owner will be charged with the cost of tearing down the building. Molloy said blighted properties can be a real danger to residents. People who enter a house that is unsafe may hurt themselves and, if the condition of the property constitutes a fire hazard, it could endanger the surrounding buildings and residents. Safety is not the only reason for the town to establish such a project. Property values of homes suffer when an unkempt house is nearby. One abandoned house in the neighborhood, Molloy said, could decrease the value of all the houses in the vicinity. By demolishing it, the project helps boost the value of other properties. Eliminating “zombie homes” has long been a battle taken up by current board members. “With every demolition, every property cleanup and every court case we pursue,” said Councilman Daniel Panico (R-Manorville) July 15 in a statement after the demolition of an abandoned house in Mastic, “we are turning communities around and giving people the quality of life that they deserve.” Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) was on site for a demolition on Monroe Street in Rocky Point in June. “Nearly every community in Brookhaven Town has been hit by the increase of vacant, neglected houses,” Romaine said. “Unfortunately, many of them are run-down and not secure from animals and squatters. We will continue to clean up properties.” Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) also attended the Rocky Point demolition. “I am very happy for the residents that live on the street,” she said following the demolition. “Some stopped by during the demolition just to say how very thankful they were that it was coming down.” With the help of the grant money, more homes could be demolished in an effort to clean up the neighborhoods of the North Shore.

Meals on Wheels delivers food and friendship to north shore By WeNHao Ma Every Tuesday, 63-year-old retired teacher Diane Melidosian drives to St. Charles Hospital at 11 a.m. The Stony Brook native pulls up to the back entrance, where she loads six trays containing hot food and six bags of cold meals into her trunk. The staff at the Port Jefferson hospital prepares these meals, which Melidosian delivers to her Three Village Meals on Wheels clients in Port Jefferson, most of whom are in their 80s and 90s. As she places the meals on their tables, she chats with clients to see how they’re doing. Volunteers for the nonprofit make deliveries Monday through Friday. Three Village Meals on Wheels was created 34 years ago by Mary Ada Niatas and Anna Mae Jenkins, who prepared and delivered hot meals to handicapped and elderly parishioners of the St. James Roman Catholic Church in Setauket. The two felt a need to create a meal delivery program because none existed in the area at that time. The area was not eligible under existing guidelines for public funds, said Melidosian, who serves as secretary on the organization’s board, but with the help of community leaders and Huntington Meals on Wheels, Niatis and Jenkins got the program up and running in office space do-

On Aug. 22, 1983, Three Village Meals on Wheels made its first delivery of 26 meals, via four routes, to 13 clients in the Three Village area. Today, the organization delivers 144 meals, via nine routes, to as many as 72 clients in northern Brookhaven Town, and is growing. Ninety percent of Meals on Wheels’ clients are more than 70 years old and 10 percent are over 90. Most of them live alone

and are unable to shop or prepare their own food. The cost for each client’s daily meals is $6.50 — $32.50 for the week. If the organization’s Client Services Committee determines that it’s needed, the fee may be reduced or waived. Prior to accepting a new client, the organization sends a volunteer nurse to collect information and evaluate his or her needs. Special diets recommended by the client’s physician are implemented, and

meals are planned and overseen by dieticians at the organization’s three meal preparation sites: St. Charles Hospital and John T. Mather Memorial Hospital in Port Jefferson and Sunrise Senior Living in East Setauket. Melidosian first got involved with the organization about 15 years ago, filling in when a volunteer was not available. After she retired from her position as a reading specialist for the Smithtown schools, Melidosian became

a weekly volunteer and has been making meal deliveries once a week for the past nine years. “Being a substitute is nice, but real relationships form when you have the same route week after week, as I now have,” Melidosian said. That’s what she likes most about her volunteer work. “Delivering the meals is important, but for some clients, a volunteer is the only outside contact they may have each day,” Melidosian said. “We also assess if there are any specific concerns and pass this information to the office. When necessary, the family is contacted.” One relatively new client is 83 years old, she said. He was always able to shop for himself, but when he was released from the hospital six months ago, on oxygen therapy, he could no longer hop in his car and go and get food. “He, like all my clients, is grateful for this service,” Melidosian said. Another client, Mary Jane Lewis, will be turning 99 in September. “[The meals] are very, very good,” she said, adding that the vegetables are fresh and the meat is tender. One client, who requested anonymity, thinks the organization is a lifesaver. “My daughter said they’re doing God’s work.” If you are, or know someone, who needs this service, please call 631-689-7070 Mnday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m.

Grants Continued from page A3 and $3,800 for collections care. According to board of directors President Jane Alcorn, the funding will be used to survey the property, especially the lab building and power base, to study its historic nature — identify which parts are historic, have architectural drawings done, and figure out which parts are critical to preserve and protect, and how to do it. “The funding will help as we continue to protect the site as we work toward getting it on the National Register of Historic Places,” Alcorn said. “We know the history of the project is historic. It has significance because of Tesla’s work there — it’s a scientific site. Its architectural origins, in inspiration of Stanford White, an important architect at his time, [are also significant].” Alcorn said that every dollar is significant, as the nonprofit looks toward the future of turning part of the site into a museum — and the funding makes the creation of a museum more exciting, if the organization can get the property on the national list. “We believe in preserving and making the best possible choice in how we use that space,” she said. “Having the grant enables us to develop ideas that bring together the past and the future. We have

The Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation has been magnificent, and we applaud their foresight into giving to organizations such as ours, who want to preserve the best of the past.”

Obituary A celebration of the life of BNL physicist I-Hung Chiang By Kyle Chiang I-Hung Chiang of Stony Brook, a physicist employed by Brookhaven National Laboratory for 42 years, passed away peacefully on Father’s Day, June 19, at the age of 75. He is survived by his wife of 50 years, Yuh-Wey; his two sons, Jay and Kyle; his two daughters-in-law, Cindy and Mary; and four grandchildren: Jayne, Lucas, Jordan Paige, and Sam. Chiang never wanted the fuss of a wake or funeral. He lived his whole life for others — his wife and best friend, his family, his work family, and the many people in the community fortunate enough to cross his path. Instead, Chiang’s life was remembered with a private celebration of life party on Aug. 13. Born in Taipei, Taiwan, Chiang emigrated to the U.S. to obtain his doctorate in physics at the University of Rochester. He endured a difficult youth in Taiwan and came to the U.S. with a one-way ticket, in search of a better life for his family. He had to save up his student stipend in order to purchase a ticket to bring his new wife to America. In 1974, after a stay in Illinois, the couple settled on Long Island, where he began work at Brookhaven National Lab. It would be the last job he would hold, and remained a place he commuted to until a few days before his death. The lab was his passion. He never retired because, as he said, he was enjoying his life to the fullest by continuing his work. Chiang’s last years were spent working with the NASA Space Radiation Lab team at BNL to help researchers study the physiological impact of prolonged space travel.

In 1996, Chiang was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, a cancer in the upper part of the throat behind the nose, which required radiation therapy, and in 1998, he was diagnosed with lung cancer, which was treated with surgery and chemotherapy. These diagnoses were serious, but his will to live and fighting spirit didn’t flinch at the challenge. The following years were peppered with a litany of medical issues that arose secondarily to the treatment that eradicated his cancer. These ailments were often painful and required adaptation, especially when he lost the ability to eat solid foods. It would have demoralized many, but Chiang persisted without complaint. In fact, even as the nerves in his neck continued to deteriorate, making it difficult for others to understand him, he proclaimed that he had never been happier in his life. He and his family made the most of their time together by traveling the world with his handheld blender, sampling exotic foreign cuisine in a puréed form. In the end, the treatment that gave the family 20 more years with him was what took him from them. Those left behind are warmed by the memories of their time together, touched by Chiang’s acts of kindness, inspired by his heroic spirit, but most of all, miss him dearly. The family requests that donations in Chiang’s memory be made to Stony Brook University Hospital in appreciation for the caring and professional treatment he received there. Kyle Chiang grew up in Stony Brook and now resides in the San Diego area, where he is a research scientist at aTyr Pharma.

Those left behind are warmed by the memories of their time together, touched by Chiang’s acts of kindness, inspired by his heroic spirit, but most of all, miss him dearly.

i-hung Chiang was a physicist at Brookhaven national lab.

‘I know the struggles [veterans have] had returning after they’ve served, and I think that any organization that’s there to help that process and help them acclimate back into society is totally worthwhile.’ — Kathy Wagner leader of the Enterprise United Way of Long Island campaign which she’s been running since 2008, so she’s a big cheerleader and supporter for the cause. She said she feels Mission United is a vital program to assist veterans. “This is a huge race supporting a huge cause ... I’m really excited for it,” she said, adding that she has a lot of family members who are veterans, including her grandfather, three uncles and a couple of cousins whom she’s close with. “I know the struggles they’ve had returning after they’ve served, and I think that any organization that’s there to help that process and help them acclimate back into society is totally worthwhile and totally worth raising money for.” Wagner has competed in both 5K and 10K events, half marathons, mud runs and warrior dashes. Her boss, Eric Schonhoff, Enterprise’s regional vice president who has also been supportive of United Way of Long Island and serves on the board of directors, is inspired by Wagner’s efforts. “Not only is it great to back a seasoned runner like Kathy, but she also deserves accolades for putting her heart and soul behind Mission United and the entire campaign,” he said. Menendez, of Hauppauge, who is a

claims adjuster for Geico in Woodbury, is running for Team Mission United as a labor for love, as she too is surrounded by family members in the military. Her husband is an Air Force veteran; her eldest son Sean is in the Coast Guard serving in Astoria, Oregon; her middle son Scott served in the Army; and her youngest son, Shane, is a Marine in San Diego, California. She began intense training for the marathon and was approached by a past supervisor about volunteering to become a participant for the team, and was delighted to accept. “It’s an honor for me just to be in the run,” Menendez said. “I keep my family in my thoughts to motivate me. Training is a parttime job and it’s nothing compared to what these men and women have done for our country. This will help with the needs of our veterans returning home. They face so many challenges acclimating to civilian life after military life, so Team Mission United helps them get homes and jobs, and raising money will help benefit so many more veterans.” Participants have set a goal of raising $20,000 for United Way of Long Island’s veterans programs, and are looking for support.

Strong to the finish: Popeye-themed boat wins sixth annual ‘Quick ‘n Dirty’ race

The Long Island Seaport and Eco Center in Port Jefferson held its sixth annual Quick ‘n’ Dirty Boat Build on Aug. 13 and Aug. 14 at the Village Center. The competition allows four hours for teams of two to build boats out of wood on Saturday, which are then painted and raced around Port Jefferson Harbor on Sunday. John and Stephanie Marino came out on top in the field of eight boats, and raced their Popeyethemed boat to victory. Clockwise from top left, scenes from the festivities included showing off boats prior to the race, then two preliminary heats before a four-boat final in front of a large crowd.

Letter to the editor

Swans swim in algae-infested water.

Dog days of summer mean nitrogen pollution will become more visible File photo

Cedar Beach in Mount Sinai is scenic and inviting — and elected officials aim to keep it that way.

Proud to be a New Yorker Last Thursday was a glorious day weatherwise on Long Island. Under a clear blue sky, a group of politicians gathered at Sunken Meadow State Park in Smithtown for a press conference. Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), the leader of the bipartisan group, wanted to show the federal government and the Environmental Protection Agency that New Yorkers will not sit by and watch as dredged materials dumped into yet another site — this time, at the eastern end of the Long Island Sound, threatening its health and vitality. Among the lawmakers participating in the show of unity were Congressional representatives; members of the New York State Senate, including the majority leader; members of the New York State Assembly; Suffolk County legislators, including the county executive; and the supervisor of Smithtown. They are Democrats and Republicans, Conservatives and Liberals — but they were all clearly on the same page last Thursday. And as the governor noted, this does not happen often nowadays. In his remarks, Cuomo praised Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan for a successful legislative session, noting that the parties work together to accomplish goals for their constituents. And isn’t that the way government should work? Cuomo also organized a letter-signing event addressed to the White House and the EPA, which was cosigned by 31 elected state officials. We’re New Yorkers, as the governor said, and we’re people who love Long Island. Every person present was concerned about the welfare of Long Island and its people, its marine life, its economy, its waters. The setting was beautiful. The mood — collegial. The men and women — in harmony. Thank you, Governor Cuomo, and everyone else involved, for making us proud to be residents of the great Empire State — New York.

Nitrogen is essential for plant growth, but when too much nitrogen gets into coastal waters, either from septic systems, fertilizers, sewage treatment plants or street runoff, it can be harmful. As we enjoy these last weeks of summer, we should understand that nitrogen can cause poor water quality and dangerous algae blooms, which can severely reduce or eliminate oxygen in the water. Low levels of oxygen in the water can harm fish and other marine life. Just last year, three massive fish kills occurred in the Peconic Bay region. Earlier this month, a blue-green algae bloom was found in Forge Pond and Peconic Lake, closing both waters to area residents. Too much nitrogen also hurts wetlands, making coastal communities more vulnerable to the effects of flooding. When Long Island’s natural resources are harmed, the region’s economy is affected, including Long Island’s $5.3 billion tourism industry, which provides some 74,000 jobs. Harm to Long Island’s water can also negatively impact seafood

businesses. According to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, commercial fishing and seafood industries on Long Island accounted for $14 million in wages and $32 million in gross domestic product in 2013. As federal, state and local governments take steps to address nitrogen, there are actions we all can take to reduce nitrogen pollution. In 2014, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) declared nitrogen pollution the county’s “public water enemy number one.” Since then, Suffolk County has worked to identify and develop solutions to its excess nitrogen problem. Federal, state and local agencies have provided $388 million for sewer projects and for exploring new septic system technologies that help reduce nitrogen pollution. But obstacles remain. Almost 70 percent of the land-based excess nitrogen on Long Island and in Suffolk County comes from residential and commercial on-site sewage treatment systems. It is critical to upgrade many of these

systems with technologies that will reduce nitrogen flow to estuaries and coastal ecosystems. The key to success is finding affordable and sustainable mechanisms to help homeowners and property owners finance the upgrades. In addition, concerned residents can take action to reduce their “nitrogen footprint” at low or no cost. For example, homeowners can eliminate or reduce their use of lawn fertilizer, which would save money and reduce the amount of nitrogen ending up in waterways. Through government, business, academic and individual efforts working together, we can reduce nitrogen in our waters and help restore the Long Island Sound, the South Shore Estuary and the Peconic bays. The road to restoration is a long one, but well worth the effort when we think about our shorelines and the legacy we can leave for future generations. The time to do this is now.

A kind-hearted thank you to all of Sound Beach The family of “Gentleman” Jim Ford, who was written about in an obituary in the June 30th edition titled “Jim Ford, always a gentleman,” wish to extend a heartful thank you to our beloved community for all of their support.

During this difficult time we were blessed with faith, family and friends. The outpouring of love from the Sound Beach Fire Department and St. Louis de Montfort Church in Sound Beach was completely extraordinary.

Our family is forever grateful to everyone who touched our lives in friendship at this painful time.

opinion A novel Olympic Games for mere mortals

W

e have spent the better part of the last two weeks glued to the television watching extraordinary people perform incredible acts under unimaginable pressure. Maybe we should come up with an Olympic Games for the ordinary person. To enter these games, contestants will have to go through a speed round of sports clichés, to see who can come up with the most trite phrases for any circumstance. “Yes, I just lost, By Daniel Dunaief but I learned a great deal and was proud to be here. I’m going to refocus and redouble my efforts, and come back that much stronger.” “We just take it one game at a time.” “I know I’m only 8, but this is what I

D. None of the above

wanted my whole entire life.” We can add a contest for wouldbe reporters. Ordinary people can sit down with athletes and see who can ask either the most inane questions or share superlatives. “You just won your 18th Olympic gold medal. What’s next? Oh, right, your 19th?” “That was sensational, spectacular and unbelievable. I’m just wondering what it must be like to be you.” How about a remote-control Olympics? Let’s see who can change from channel to channel — without switching to movie stations — the longest without hitting a commercial. I pride myself on my ability to watch three shows without seeing too many advertisements, but every so often I flip from one station that’s cut to a commercial to another that’s still in commercial. That’s a remote control error. How about if we put teenagers in a room and push their endurance? We can have their parents talking to them while they are sending texts, updating their Instagram accounts and using Snapchat. In fact, not only will their

parents be talking to them, but they also will have to answer questions about their days. The first one-word answer — “good” for example — disqualifies the contestant. Teenagers might want to turn that contest around, requiring instead that they only answer in one syllable. The problem with that, though, is that the game might not end until they hit their 20s. We could also bring in couples who have been together for more than 40 years. We can ask a question and see how long it takes before they finish each other’s sentences. Or, perhaps, we can ask them to tell a story about something that happened early in their relationship and see how long it takes before they argue about the details. “No, I wasn’t wearing the blue dress. I was wearing the green dress and we weren’t in Philadelphia, we were in Boston; and we weren’t at a park, we were at a movie theater.” We can invite a group of people who have made an art form out of noticing absolutely everything wrong with others around them. A person can stroll by

and the contestants can try to one-up each other’s observations. “Oh, seriously? She didn’t make eye contact with anyone.” “Did you notice how she breathed with her mouth open?” “She wore those shoes? What is she trying to sell, know what I’m saying?” We could also set up a movie competition, where people quote the most lines from sports movies. Borrowing from one of my favorite films, “Bull Durham”: “You lollygag the ball around the infield. You lollygag your way down to first. You lollygag in and out of the dugout. You know what that makes you? Larry!” “Lollygaggers!” This 19th-century word has various meanings, including fooling around, wasting time, dawdling or dallying. Yes, there’s exceptional speed and there are talented people pushing themselves to extreme levels to defy gravity, each other and the clock. And then there are the rest of us and maybe, just maybe, there’s the Lollygagger Olympics.

Three cheers for our committed staff and air conditioning

E

ach night, throughout this long stretch of intense heat and high humidity, we have been praying to the air-conditioning gods to stay strong and continue to keep us comfortable. Last Friday night I must have forgotten, in my euphoria at the start of the weekend, to say my prayers because Saturday afternoon there was a waterfall coming through the ceiling in one of our offices. Fortunately a staff member By Leah S. Dunaief had come in to prepare for the next editions and was horrified at the sight. The water was dripping through the Sheetrock and onto one of our newer computers, then splashing its way off the papers on the desk and the leather surface of the chair to land on the relatively new carpet. A unit in

Between you and me

the attic had given up trying to wring moisture out of the room and had broken down, releasing its condensate. The ceiling had begun to sag in protest. The staff member called me. I was at home, sitting in my favorite living room chair, reading the sections of the Sunday Times that we somehow get delivered on Saturday morning. The dog lay beside me, snoring slightly, enjoying the peaceful companionship of a weekend afternoon. I could hear the birds chirping outside, even over the whoosh of the air conditioning. It was a bucolic high-summer scene — until the phone rang. Then we went into a frenzy that has lasted until today, as the repairmen try to pinpoint the problem. One thing I can tell you. It sure is tough to be creative in the 90-degree-plus heat. But the staff has soldiered on, despite the sultry air. Yes, we have fans and, yes, we have air conditioning in the rest of the building, some of which in theory should waft into the stricken room. But it has been uncomfortable, and the staff has persevered. If your newspaper feels a little damp, I trust you’ll under-

stand. And we are hoping the fix is in. How did we manage before air conditioning? There are still people who do not have air conditioning today by choice. Apartments and stores weren’t air conditioned when I was in the first decade of my life — only movie theaters were, and that’s where we hung out for two features and a news short on Saturday afternoons. When we wanted to cool down on Sundays, we rode the subway out to Rockaway Beach in Brooklyn — the end of the line — then walked the blocks to the sand and the surf, marveling at the seaside breeze. We stayed there — my parents, my brother, my sister and I — until quite late before returning to our stuffy apartment, squeezing as much time as we could from our comfortable location. Sometimes it even got quite cool along the water’s edge at night. We never complained. During the week, we took refuge in Central Park, sitting on a bench or a blanket that we might have carried through the streets. We would pass neighbors hanging over their ground-floor windowsills and young-

sters lounging on the steps of their stoops. Once we reached the park, my dad would find a thicket of trees and spread the blanket for us. Stretched out, we deeply inhaled the sweet summer evening breezes that might come along. After my brother, who was almost 14 years older, purchased his car, he would take us for rides after work with the side windows rolled down and the wing windows directing the flow of air onto our faces. Once we cleared the downtown streets and reached the parkway, he could get up enough speed to make us rejoice in the stream of air. Even when I was in my 20s and married, we didn’t have air conditioning in our car, although it was available as an expensive option. It wasn’t until we lived on the Texas air base and bought a station wagon from a local dealer for our growing family that we got air conditioning. It turned out that was standard in every car in the South. How perfectly wonderful, but we did take a bit of ribbing from our friends and family about being spendthrifts when we drove back north. That was in the late 1960s, in a world long gone.
