What a waste Politicians oppose 10-year dredge plan By Giselle Barkley

SBU chimps denied legal rights

Judge declines to give Hercules, Leo personhood in Supreme Court suit

PAGE A7

Town and state officials gathered at Cedar Beach on Monday in opposition to the plan by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to continue dumping dredge waste into the Long Island Sound. The organizations were dumping dredge spoils into the Connecticut River, which spills into the Sound. According to Greg Blower of Sen. Ken LaValle’s office, town and state officials are not sure what chemicals or sediments were disposed of in the river, especially with the variety of manufacturing facilities around that area. Ten years ago, the organizations were asked to create a plan that would propose an alternative area where they could dump the waste. Officials including Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R), Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point), Assemblyman

Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) and LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) received the plan at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday morning according to Anthony Graves, the town’s chief environmental analyst. Originally, the officials only had seven days to make public comment on the 1,300-page plan, but after Romaine brought

this into question, the date was altered allowing people to make their comments until Oct. 5. Graves said the Army Corps of Engineers and the EPA were told in 2005 to create this report, which didn’t address the concerns of town and state officials. According to Bonner, the organizations recommended to continue depos-

iting the waste in the Sound. Bonner added to this saying, “we have better technology now and we know dredge spoils can be repurposed for capping landfills.” While there are alternative dumping sites such as abandoned mines and landfills, Romaine said the organizations DREDGE continued on page A9

This challenge can’t get much colder, and for the second year in a row, Mount Sinai is looking for help icing amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Last year, 500 participants from all over the North Shore came out to Heritage Park in Mount Sinai for its first annual Ride for Life Ice ALS challenge, to raise money to help spread awareness and find a cure for ALS. The disease affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing motor neurons to degenerate, leading to the inability to control muscle movement. This leaves those affected unable to speak, eat, move and breathe on their own. With events like those at Heritage Park, people all over the world have brought attention to ALS to the forefront, and on Aug. 26, Mount Sinai is doing it again. Game booths, face painting, balloon twisting, dunk tanks and pie tosses are just a few of the events listed for Wednesday’s ice bucket challenge. Admission to the event, which begins at 5 p.m., is free, and Tshirts and other ALS awareness items will be available for purchase. Hot dogs, cotton candy and soda will also be available, as well as a limited supply of buckets. To help support the cause, you can create a team or collect pledges for the Big Dump, which will begin promptly at 7 p.m. Also in attendance will be Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point). “Last year, more than 500 people partici-

pated in the challenge and I expect to see a bigger crowd this year,” the councilwoman said in a press release. “We need all the help we can get from friends, family, businesses, sports teams and more to come together so we can find a cure for ALS.” Paper pledge forms can be found on www. alsrideforlife.org. In the event of bad weather, a rain date is scheduled for Sept. 2. E-mail RFLoffice21@aol.com or go to Facebook’s ALS Ride for Life page for more information.

Firefighters compete for the title of state champ By Giselle Barkley

Suffolk and Nassau County fire departments tried to smoke their competition on Saturday, Aug. 15, at New York State’s annual Motorized Drill, at Fireman’s Memorial Park in Ridge. Fifty drill teams competed to earn the title of state champion at the event, which featured eight challenges including the 3 Man Ladder; the Motor Hook and Ladder class B and C contests; the Motor Hose class B and C contests; Efficiency; Motor Pump and Buckets. While two teams, the Central Islip Hoboes and the West Sayville Flying Dutchmen, were crowned co-champions, the Miller Place Extinguishers didn’t place in the competition. Other local teams like the Selden Slowpokes competed in the event, but they also didn’t place in the competition. The Rocky Point Rum Raiders didn’t attend the event. The Extinguishers placed sixth in the 3 Man Ladder challenge, but took the 23rd place in the B Ladder challenge. They then came in 29th place for the B Hose and Efficiency challenge. The team

billion in funding offered to school districts through Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) SMART Schools Bond Act by offering districts that seek funding delayed payment options. The act is intended to bring about 21st century upgrades to educational technology and infrastructure in schools to ensure that students graduate with the skills they need to thrive in today’s economy. Voters approved the act in a November 2014 referendum. Teq will be offering a complete range of SMART products and software, including SMART kapp iQ and Teq Unlimited. SMART kapp iQ is an ultra HD interactive display that can multi-link student devices so that all participants can collaborate, contribute and see what is being written in real time. Teq

Unlimited is a software package that teaches how to successfully integrate new technology into the classroom. “Kapp iQ is not only specifically designed for the needs of teachers and students … it’s designed for how kids learn — using devices and naturally interacting with technology,” Hickey said. Teq is offering a free trial period for districts in New York. The trial, which lasts 30 days, includes delivery, setup and two hours of professional development of whichever products the districts chose to try, according to a Teq statement. Teq has been in the business since 1972, and was originally located in Oyster Bay out of a barn. According to the company, its mission is to support the continued evolution of the modern classroom by offering world-renowned professional development and providing service and equipment that enables student achievement.

The two chimpanzees housed at Stony Brook University will not be granted the personhood necessary to allow them to challenge their captivity, a state Supreme Court judge ruled in an animal rights advocacy group’s lawsuit against the school. Justice Barbara Jaffe ruled in her July 30 decision that Hercules and Leo, the two male chimps used for research at Stony Brook University’s Department of Anatomical Sciences, would not be granted a “writ of habeas corpus,” as petitioned for in the Nonhuman Rights Project’s suit against the university. The animal rights group had petitioned the judge with hopes of forcing the university to move the chimps to the Florida-based Save the Chimps animal sanctuary. “The similarities between chimpanzees and humans inspire the empathy felt for a beloved pet,” Jaffe said in her decision. “Efforts to extent legal rights to chimpanzees are thus understandable; someday they may even succeed. For now, however, given the precedent to which I am bound it is hereby ordered that the petition for a writ of habeas corpus is denied.” Jaffe cited previous suits the Nonhuman Rights Project had headed up, including one referencing a chimpanzee named Tommy who was being held through Circle L Trailers in Gloversville, NY. In that case, the Fulton County Supreme Court dismissed the Nonhuman Rights Project’s appeal to have the chimp released. Steven Wise, president of the Nonhuman Rights Project, said his group was still looking forward to appealing Jaffe’s decision to the state Supreme Court’s Appellate Division’s first judicial department. “Unlike Justice Jaffe, [the first judicial department] is not bound by the decision of the Third Department in Tommy’s case,” Wise said in a statement. Despite the judge’s ruling, Susan Larson, an anatomical sciences professor at the university, said both Hercules and Leo will retire from the facility’s research center and be gone by September. Larson did not return requests for comment. The Nonhuman Rights Project, however, still said it would be pursuing the chimps to ensure they are released to a sanctuary nevertheless. “We applaud Stony Brook for finally doing the right thing,” Lauren Choplin of the Nonhuman Rights Project wrote on the group’s website. “We have made it clear that we remain willing to assist Stony Brook in sending Hercules and Leo to Save the Chimps in Ft. Pierce, Florida, where we have arranged for them to be transferred, or to have an appropriate member sanctuary of the North American Primate Sanctuary Alliance, as we did in Tommy’s case. We have made it equally clear that, if Stony Brook attempts to move Hercules and Leo to any other place, we will immediately seek a preliminary injunction to prevent this move pending the outcome of all appeals, as we succeeded in doing in Tommy’s case last year.” New Iberia Research Center in Louisiana owns the chimps, and their next destination was not clear. The court first ordered the school to show cause and writ of habeas corpus — a command to produce the captive person and justify their detention — but struck out the latter on April 21, one day after releasing the initial order, making it a more administrative move simply prompting the university to defend why it detains the animals. In an earlier press release from 2013, the Nonhuman Rights Project said the chimpanzee plaintiffs are “selfaware” and “autonomous” and therefore should have the same rights as humans. The two plaintiffs, Hercules and Leo, are currently being used in a locomotion research experiment in the Department of Anatomical Sciences at Stony Brook University.

Car show benefits historic house

On Sunday, Aug. 16, Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) attended the Miller Place-Mount Sinai Historical Society’s 8th Annual Car Show. In conjunction with the Long Island Street Rod Association, the historical society hosted the car show to raise money for the restoration and preservation of the William Miller House. There were many unique cars on display, as well as tours of the Miller House, music, raffles and a meet and greet with retired racing greyhounds.

opted for a cheaper method. “The only reason why the Army Corps of Engineers is recommending it is because it’s the cheapest method,” Romaine said. “Shame on them.” Romaine said the spoils have compromised marine life, including a decline in the fish and shellfish population, but added that the spoils are most heavily contributing to the lobster die-off in the water. Even though the dumping of the waste is from Connecticut, Romaine said, “water bodies like the Sound don’t respect state boundary lines.” According to Graves, around $1.7 million was spent cleaning the Sound. LaValle said these efforts were a waste of money. While they spent it to clean the

“Landmarks like the William Miller House are meaningful representations of the culture and history here in Suffolk County,” Anker said. “It is so important for us to come together as a community in order to preserve these historical sites.” The Miller Place-Mount Sinai Historical Society is working to raise funds to repair the roof of the William Miller House. To find out more information about the historical society and how to make a contribution to this historical site, please visit www.mpmshistoricalsociety.org.

Sound, the Army Corps of Engineers and the EPA continued to dump dredge waste in the water. “The two measures really don’t make sense and we have spent 10 years and all that money,” LaValle said. “[It] shows lack of common sense, I think the only thing it did was keep some researchers occupied for 10 years.” There are two local public hearings, one on Monday, Aug. 24, in Port Jefferson’s Village Center and the other, Tuesday, Aug. 25, at the Long Island Marriott in Uniondale. There will also be hearings in Connecticut. Registration is required to attend the meetings, and comments can be forwarded no later than Oct. 5. “We live on an island,” Romaine said. “Many of the waterways on our island are already impacted. We don’t need any more impaired waterways. We need to start improving the Long Island Sound.”

On Aug. 6, Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) attended the Welcome to Rocky Point sign unveiling ceremony on the south side of Route 25A across from Patchogue Drive. Funding for the sign came from the New York State Department of Health in the implementation of Creating Healthy Places in Suffolk County initiative.

“The Rocky Point community farmers market has become a destination on Sunday for families to get fresh, healthy produce,” Bonner said. “Thanks to the Creating Healthy Places and the Family Health and Wellness program of Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk County, we have this beautiful new sign to welcome people to the community.”

Long Islanders and their friends and family members gathered on Tuesday for the Rocky Point Summer Concert Series’ last show of the year. Community members danced, sang and cried during the Mike DelGuidice & Big Shot: The Ultimate Billy Joel Tribute, which began at 7 p.m., and wrapped up this year’s concert series, which began in early July. The North Brookhaven Chamber of Commerce and members of the Veterans

of Foreign War were two of the organizations that attended the concert. During an intermission, the VFW members were invited on stage so the audience could pay tribute to their service. Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) was in the crowd. The audience members remained at the concert until late in the evening as they enjoyed the tribute which, in addition to Billy Joel songs, featured songs by Elton John and other artists.

According to Michael Heller of the New York State Drill Teams organization that helps plan the event, the eight obstacles in the competition are similar to those used to train firefighters. Although the competition is entertaining, Heller and Chief Michael Matteo of the Selden Fire Department said that the event helps with teamwork and relationship building. “When you join a team — a competition team — everyone has their role to play, so they all work together as a team to accomplish the goal,” Heller said. “Firefighters on a team are used to working well with each other, and understand working with each other. Teamwork is critical when you’re in a fire to understand what a person is doing and what to do next.” These competitions began in the 1800s, according to Heller and Matteo, but Matteo added that there are few places where 40 or more groups of people in New York State can get together, compete and congratulate their fellow competitors for their participation in the event. On September 6, 1872 the Firemen’s Association of the State of New York was established in Auburn, which led to more organized competitions among the fire departments. “They started with only the old fashion where it was all pull carts and steam engines and things like that, and then they moved into the motorized,” Matteo said. The competition was the biggest event that the Selden Fire Department hosted thus far. They have held smaller events for the fire departments in the past, like the Selden Invitational Firefighter’s Drill. Matteo also said there were around three teams that came back to compete

in the Motorized Drill competition, as participants had been lacking in previous years, and few times there were repeat competitors. Additionally, there were around seven teams that could have taken first place after the Buckets challenge, the last part of the competition, but didn’t have as many points as the co-champions, making for a highlycontested day. According to Matteo, this typically doesn’t happen, but said it was nice to see. “It’s just a great thing for the fire service,” Matteo said of the competition. “Ninty-five percent of firefighters are volunteers, so we’re giving our time when we’re not working one or two jobs. We’re taking away [time] from our families and we’re going out there.”

Bray credits much of his development to former Shoreham-Wading River lacrosse coach Tom Rotanz, who he said helped him immensely as an athlete. Rotanz, who Rob Bray described as a phenomenal coach, was at the helm during the 2012 Suffolk County Rookie of the Year’s freshman and sophomore seasons, bringing Bray up to varsity as a ninth grader. “He just held me to extremely high expectations, which helped me develop,” Bray said. “He stressed teamwork a lot.” Bray also said his current coach, Mike Taylor, was helpful in understanding

different offenses, which he believes will benefit him at the NCAA level. Bray’s final high school game was a 12-11 overtime loss to Sayville in the Suffolk County B semifinals. Although an upsetting way to end it, Bray said he can look back and appreciate his career as a Wildcat, as he moves on to the next stage of his career. “It was a little depressing, coming to realization that an era had come to an end,” he said. “But it also made me realize how close-knit I was with the kids I’ve played lacrosse with for so long.”

OPINION EDITORIAL

Beyond the bright screens

There’s been a lot of hubbub about the 21st century classroom, where interactive whiteboards replace chalk, and pencils and pens are subbed out for iPads and Chromebooks. Even our own governor has incentivized such reforms at our schools. But let’s push pause and ask: Is all this technology helping or hurting? And what benefits are we missing out on in the real world beyond the bright screens? This week, a Huntington Station company, Teq, announced it had partnered with Canadian company SMART Technologies — yes, the creators of the famous SMART Board that is a staple of today’s classrooms — to be the sole distributor of Smart products for grades K to 12 in New York. That’s a big deal and we applaud Teq’s success. The educational tech company, already projecting sales of $50 million this year, anticipates the partnership will boost its revenues 20 percent. That’s not just chump change, and it’s a good deal for Long Island’s economy. Yet how much of our new technologies are really needed for learning and how much are we just advancing for the sake of advancing? It feels like a lot of the new software and hardware is needed only to keep today’s student boredom at bay, as many kids are so used to having tech products in the home that they will not concentrate on paper.

A culture of distraction is one of the greatest setbacks of today’s overly technological society. We understand that it benefits our students to be familiar with today’s gadgets, so they will be prepared for tomorrow’s success. But it also benefits children to know what it feels like to hold a real book in their hands, to solve a difficult math problem using a pencil and loose-leaf notebook, to be able to tell time without a digital display, to play outside instead of staring at their phones.

Today’s kids are being handed iPads not long after retiring baby bottles. Steve Jobs once told a New York Times reporter that he limited his own children’s tech time at home. Instead of rushing to live in a completely digital world, our educators, parents and political leaders should place importance on carving out some time for a little reality — some quiet time and disconnect to facilitate thinking and creativity.

Sex offender law

TO THE EDITOR: As the Suffolk County legislator for the 16th Legislative District, I strongly believe that my top priority is to ensure public safety and protect the most vulnerable residents of our community: our children. That is why I am writing to you today and reaching out to my community, not just as a representative but also as a parent of young children — and as the author of the most aggressive legislation in the nation to protect our children from sexual predators. In February, the highest court in the state, the Court of Appeals, overturned local residency restrictions, leaving our children unprotected. In fact, recently, a Level 3 offender, the highest level of predator, moved in just three doors away from a local elementary school. Additionally, registration requirements for thousands of Level 1 offenders are set to expire at the end of December. These offenders, who are statistically most likely to re-offend, will drop off the radar if protections are not renewed. This past week, I joined with my col-

leagues in county government — Laura Ahearn, executive director of Parents for Megan’s Law, and state Assembly-

man Andrew Raia — to call on Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie to immediately convene a

special session of the Assembly to pass Bill A2864, and restore the ability of local governments to establish residency restrictions for our communities. The State Senate has already passed this bill, but the Assembly ended this year’s session without passing its companion bill that must be approved and signed by the governor to ensure that our children are protected when they return to school in September. The New York State Legislature is now on vacation. Many of our children are on vacation as well. But sexual predators don’t take vacation. Without a special session, the Legislature will not reconvene until January, leaving our children vulnerable. Please contact Gov. Cuomo by telephone or email; details are at www. governor.ny.gov/contact. Please also telephone Assembly Speaker Heastie at 518-455-3791 or email at speaker@assembly.state.ny.us. Thank you for your help as we work together to protect our children and our community. Steve Stern Suffolk County Legislator (D) Dix Hills

Toilet paper, my kingdom for some toilet paper

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

e’ve all “had to go” at one point or another when the timing or location weren’t ideal. Maybe we were defending our dissertation, facing a pitcher in a big game, getting instructions about our first assignment at a new job, or sitting in the window seat of an airplane with two sleeping passengers between us and an aisle already

crowded with people waiting to use the restroom. A friend recently shared a “have to go” story that continues to give a chuckle to my kids, who suddenly tuned in because they sensed a real-life bathroom joke coming. So, there he was, hiking with a group of his buddies. He was on a 6-mile trail when he noticed the familiar, unsettling rumbling in his stomach. Ignore it, he figured, because, as we all know, that always works so well. Well, no, not at all, actually. Less than a mile later, the extreme effort to avoid soiling himself kept him from taking another step along the trail. He asked if anyone had toilet paper. Nope, they assured him, no luck. This was one of the many disadvantages of hiking with a group of men. Once separated from the apparent toilet-paperless pack, my first thought would have been to avoid poison ivy and

bears — or bears covered in poison ivy. However, he didn’t have the luxury of time for those kinds of concerns. As soon as he got his shorts down around his hiking boots, he had an instant explosion. Fortunately, he wasn’t trekking in the winter and there wasn’t loose snow overhead. Disgusted by the stench from the first toxic release, he crab walked his way as far as he could to start round two. And so it went, for five rounds, until he left a connect-thedots, “Hansel and Gretel” trail in the woods. When the contents of his digestive system were finally out, he faced the toilet paper dilemma. He looked at the evergreen pine needles around him. Nature didn’t offer a solution. He considered his underwear. He decided to rip it off and “go commando” the rest of the hike. Despite his best efforts, the underwear wouldn’t rip; it would only

stretch, rendering it useless on two levels. Taking off his shirt would work, but he was surrounded by mosquitoes. The only other option, he realized, was his hat. Fortunately, he said, the hat wasn’t as abrasive and uncomfortable as he imagined. We’ve all been there. OK, well, we haven’t all exactly been on a trail without any toilet paper after our stomachs erupted. But we’ve all been in a situation where we’ve absolutely had to go at the wrong place, wrong time, or both. In “Two Weeks Notice,” Sandra Bullock as Lucy Kelson is stuck on a stopped highway with her boss, millionaire George Wade played by Hugh Grant. Recognizing the urgency, Grant brings Bullock to a nearby camper and agrees to give the owners $1,000 to let her use the bathroom. Until I figured out that I was lactose intolerant, I had numer-

Nature didn’t offer a solution. ous memorable urgent trips to the nearest restroom, including once in the middle of a baseball game and once in Philadelphia after my very first — and last — cheese steak. The only upside to these agonizing moments — and it’s a small consolation — is that they can make for amusing and relatable anecdotes. Oh, and to top off my friend’s hiking story, if you will, when he returned from the woods without his hat, one of his buddies realized his mistake. As it turned out, he did have a handful of tissues.

Going underground after the big storm

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

ood news. We are finally off the generator and back onto the electricity supplied routinely, but not to us these last nine days, by PSEG. Why have we been suffering while others around us have had electricity all this time? The answer has to do with supply and demand. Because there has been so much demand for contractors and carpenters as a result of the recent storm, we have had to wait our turn.

When the huge, stately tree that lived next to our driveway was snapped off at its roots by what the National Weather Service termed as straight-line wind — but not a tornado — it collapsed across our parking lot. The falling tree pulled down the lines and the tube that served as a conduit for the electrical wires on the rear of the building, too. In effect it snapped the tube in two as if it were a matchstick. The electric company was not going to restore the lines that had been mounted outside the building until we were sure of the permanence of the wooden construction of our rear wall. And that required the approval of a contractor. So we were hung up, waiting for help that wasn’t hurrying our way. Yes, we were kept in business by a big generator, powering our computers, Internet and phone lines but decidedly not our air conditioning. That required more energy than our generator could deliver. Perhaps you didn’t notice, those of you reading this, that there were a lot of beastly hot

days during the last nine. We noticed. It was like the historically miserable sweatshop, I imagine. We kept going but it wasn’t pretty. We would still be waiting but for a happy alternative. Yes, it required the approval of others, but that was fairly quickly forthcoming. We decided to trench the distance from the electric lines on the road, across the parking lot and into the basement. By doing so, we were able to avoid refastening the power lines to the back of our building. Now we are no longer in a hurry for a contractor. More satisfying, too, is putting the electric lines underground, something we have been editorializing about for most of our almost-40 years of publishing. We can still lose power in future storms if lines are broken somewhere on the roads leading to our building, but not ever again if the problem is within our property. In order to trench our way from the roadside electric lines to our building, we first had to get approval from PSEG, certifying

It took the better part of a day to do the trenching, lay in the lines, cover them with dirt and blacktop the ditch. PSEG was then summoned, and to their credit they arrived with three trucks that evening and approved of the entire job. We are set now to power on.
