Street renamed for Wading River ex-fire chief By Kyle Barr Under the newly placed sign that says Thomas Lateulere Street high above their heads, family, friends, neighbors and volunteer firemen of the Wading River Fire Department could only remember the man the street was named after as a modest, kind and gentle soul who gave everything he had to the fire department and the community. “It was great of the fire department to honor him like this — I never expected it, and the crowd that came, never,” Lateulere’s mother Joann said as she walked back to her house on the street now named after her son. “They all came to honor him, which was wonderful.” Volunteer firefighters, public officials, neighbors and friends of Lateulere, a commissioner and ex-chief in Wading River who died

last July after a battle with cancer, all came to honor the man as the street where he grew up was renamed in his honor. “He worked up until the last day he had to go to the hospital and he died,” said Latuelere’s former girlfriend Raegin Kellerman. “He was still there training students, and he was just a good man, a very good man. He loved it, too, it was a passion for him. He just enjoyed training his members on all these new advancements. He was all into new technology, new medical care and he did his research on everything. He just really loved them, it was a family to him.” Lateulere worked with the Wading River Fire Department and EMS for 35 years. He started when he was a young teen as a junior for the department, and he moved up through the ranks until he reached commissioner and chief. He was also one of the first paramedics to work with Suffolk County’s medevac helicopters, which are used to transport those in need of medical attention to a hospital. “He was a really caring guy, cared about the members down here,” said current Wading River Fire Chief Kevin McQueeney. “He was the kind of guy that if your son was hurt, you wanted him to show up on the call — you knew that he was the best of the best. He is missed down here; he was a guidance down here.” Neighbors who lived close to Lateulere said they felt safe with him nearby. Many of them knew him as “Tommy.” “Almost everybody on this street had to call an ambulance at some time or another,”

BACK TO SCHOOL DEALS AT

said Wading River resident and neighbor Chris Hopkins. “He heard it on the radio and he was there within two minutes. He personally came twice in the middle of the night when I needed an ambulance. He was in my house within a minute taking charge of everybody, even telling the ambulance people to take good care of me. Everyone up and down our street he was there for. He was a shy fellow, but he was amazing; he was so amazing.” Few roads have been dedicated to individuals, so deputy superintendent of the Riverhead Town highway department, Mike Zaleski, said that it would be a nice way to remember the man who touched the lives of so many. “I would say we might have dedicated five streets to individuals, and I’ve been with the town going on 24 years,” Zaleski said. “It has to be very noteworthy, somebody special. It’s well deserved here.” Riverhead Town Supervisor Sean Walter (R) said the renaming was the least he could do. “I mean he’s a 35-year volunteer and commissioner of the fire department, EMS worker and trainer — there are very few people in the world who excel at that level, especially to protect life safety,” Walter said. Kellerman said that the street sign should also serve as a call for more people to volunteer their time to the local fire department and EMS, showing how the service of the men and women on call all day every week does not go unnoticed, and how the dedication and service can affect and save lives.

During a ceremony with friends and family, on left, 20th Street, above, was renamed Thomas lateulere Street, in memory of the former firefighter. “They’re out at 2 or 3 in the morning helping people, and the rest of us are sleeping,” she said. “The ambulances, the fire departments, we need volunteers, we need volunteers to keep people safe.” The name Thomas Lateulere is an addition to 20th Street, so that maps will not be affected or changed, and the renaming won’t lead to confusion. Lateulere might have appreciated that — just another small sacrifice for even the smallest greater good. “I think he would be shy and embarrassed by it, all this hoopla,” Hopkins said. “But I think he would secretly be quite proud.”

Frank Pugliese, below left, new principal of Shoreham-Wading River High School, above, will lead with assistant principal Michael Winfield, below right. Kevin vann, below center, will be moving from high school assistant principal to become principal of Albert g. Prodell Middle School, on right.

Shoreham district adds administrator, makes switches By Kevin Redding kevin@tbrnewspapers.com With the start of a new school year, the Shoreham-Wading River school district will be led by a fresh team of administrators — a newly appointed high school principal, assistant principal and middle school principal. Leadership changes within the district began in April when new superintendent Gerard Poole was officially sworn in. Poole previously served as assistant superintendent in the Freeport School District and is replacing interim Neil Lederer. “It’s truly a privilege and an honor to have the chance to collaborate and build upon the successes of the school district,” Poole said during an April 18 board of education meeting.

Welcoming new high school principal Frank Pugliese

Pugliese, 45, who has been an assistant principal in the Half Hollow Hills School District for the past 10 years, officially started his new position as Shoreham’s high school principal Aug. 1, taking over for longtime administrator Dan Holtzman. With 20 years in education under his belt, Pugliese — a Brookhaven native with a bachelor’s degree in history from the State University of New York at Albany and a master’s degree in curriculum and instruction from Radford University in Virginia — started out teaching social studies at Goochland High School in Virginia and Commack High School before receiving his administrative certification through Stony Brook University. He was administrative dean of students at Ward Melville High School before set-

tling in at Half Hollow Hills, where he worked as assistant principal for four years at Half Hollow Hills West and six years at Half Hollow Hills East. Pugliese said he’s looking forward to bringing his years of experience in the high school setting to Shoreham-Wading River, a community he said has already made him feel at home. “I feel incredibly supported here and it’s clear that everyone wants this to be successful — this is a community that values education,” Pugliese said. “I’ve always really enjoyed high school and being part of that environment, the structure, the bonds and making sure it’s a home away from home for students.” Having gone through an extensive hiring process, which included multiple rounds of interviews with the district office and community members, he said it was intense but appreciated. “They really took the process very seriously and wanted to make sure they were bringing in somebody competent for the job and also a good fit for the building and community,” he said. “I can’t wait to be out there meeting everyone at the football games, soccer games and not just become principal of the building, but a real member of the community.” As principal, Pugliese said, his main priority is to build a strong trust with his students. “The biggest thing is you have to get to know your kids and have to know what motivates them,” he said. “You also have to really accept the fact that something that may have worked previously may not work again. For me, it’s about being real, being genuine and letting the students know that I care, which can give way to very honest conversations. When they know you have their best interests in mind, that’s when they listen. If they think you’re just feeding them a line, they’ll tune you out faster than anything.” But most importantly, in his first year, he wants to learn. “Even though I’ve been here officially since the start of August, it’s not a school until the kids and teachers are here,” Pugliese said. “What I’m hoping for this year is to get to know the teachers, get to know the kids. It’s about learning what this community values and how I can best fit into that.”

he is already planning on implementing a Chromebook program for sixth-graders this year, but mainly just hopes to build on the middle school’s friendly environment. “We certainly want to continue to make the school a welcoming place for students,” he said. “I think the social and emotional aspects of middle school is extremely important. We want to make sure that kids feel valued and welcome and safe when they come in. Once that’s taken care, the kids are in a better place to explore mentally and for learning to occur.”

Kevin Vann moving on up to middle school principal

The new principal of Albert G. Prodell Middle School is a familiar face to the community. Vann, who will be replacing retiring principal Linda Anthony after her 11 years at the helm, has been the assistant principal at the high school for the last decade. Vann said he jumped at the opportunity to lead a school in the district he knows so well. “I know the middle school is an excellent school, they’ve had a lot of success and the faculty is highly engaged with the students, so there’s a lot of really good things going on,” he said. “I just want to work with teachers, students and families to continue to move the school in a positive direction.” Vann, 50, said working in the high school for so long has given him a good sense of what he should expect in the new building. “I saw the product of the middle school when they came up to the high school,” he said. “The kids are very polite, very engaged, very eager to learn and I know that’s because of the good education and experience they’ve had here in the middle school.” Before he landed the assistant principal position at the high school, Vann worked in sales before teaching social studies at the middle school level in the Patchogue-Medford School District. He also worked on a grant for the Office of Safe and Healthy Students at Pat-Med, and was the dean of students at Shoreham’s high school. Vann holds a bachelor’s degree in history and education from St. Joseph’s College and a master’s degree in educational leadership from Touro College. As Vann prepares for the new job, he said

High school assistant principal Michael Winfield returns

Winfield is another familiar face to the community. He returns to the same position he held at Shoreham-Wading River in 2014, before he left to serve as assistant principal for sixth grade at Hempstead Middle School. The longtime education leader, who has earned a doctorate in modern world history, a Master of Arts in history and a Master of Arts in sociology from St. John’s University, among several other degrees. He was also dean of students at Bellport Middle School, social studies chairperson at upstate New York’s Spring Valley High School, assistant principal for operations at Riverhead High School and administrative supervisor for the Hempstead High Annex. Winfield will be replacing Vann, who will be leaving the position to become principal at Prodell Middle School. “I’m looking forward to, again, working with the school, the community, the parents and to really get their students prepared for work, career and beyond,” Winfield said. “I want to help them become lifelong learners who embrace learning, embrace life and become good citizens. I’m excited to be here.”

Rocky Point students take time to do research this summer

Several Rocky Point High School students had the chance to participate in cutting-edge science research this summer as part of Brookhaven National Lab’s High School Research Program. Students were selected to participate in the competitive six-week summer program

after completing an application and securing recommendations. They each spent the summer doing research under the direction of a mentor at the lab and presented their work at a poster session held in August. Funding for the program comes from the U.S. Department of Energy. These students took part in

this premier program: Allen Liu Mentor: Shinjae Yoo Research: Drug Effect Discovery on Brain Imaging Data Bryant Liu Mentor: Shinjae Yoo Research: Drug Effect Discovery on Brain Imaging Data Kyle Markland Mentor: John Biemer

Joseph A. Edgar Intermediate School music teacher Craig Knapp is sharing his educational practices in a new book he co-authored with four other educators. “First Steps in Music with Orff-Schulwerk: Sing, Say, Dance, Play,” is filled with strategies and activities that link the Orff-Schulwerk approach to John M. Feierabend’s “First Steps in Music” methodology. The book includes activities on the eight parts of the approach as well as 12 complete lesson plans, supplemental repertoire and a dedication section on Arioso, or melodic vocal music. Knapp has been teaching general music and chorus at the school since 1998.

Continued from page A3 driving down this block that is very populated to begin with. … Although we are not begrudging the residents the ability to live in a group home, we feel that the choice of 73 Henearly in the middle of a highly populated block is not the right one.” A resident on the block, who asked to remain anonymous, agreed. “That’s the main concern,” the resident said. “It’s not who’s going to be living there or what type of people are going to be living there, but the increased traffic and the effect on home values, opening a business in the middle of a very quiet neighborhood. I just think putting it in a busier area like Miller Place-Yaphank Road would be more appropriate.” However, Rowland expressed objection to the home being seen as an imposing business. “Just because people are providing services in the home for someone who needs it doesn’t make it a business … this is a home,” Rowland said. According to the director, the organization has launched more than 30 group homes throughout townships in Suffolk and Nassau counties, including Brookhaven and Islip, and many of them sit in residential neighborhoods. He said, in choosing a location for its group homes, DDI works alongside the Office for People With Developmental Disabilities in Albany to gauge the amount of care facilities in a town — including other group homes, hospitals, vocational centers and nursing homes — to ensure it won’t be opening a home in an area that is oversaturated. The house at 73 Henearly Drive was chosen because of the surrounding neighborhood, the features of the structure and its suitability to house the six adults, Rowland said, adding that the individuals who will live there deserve a home in a safe community as opposed to being confined inside an institution. “We understand that people are going to be uncomfortable with the idea of something like this being introduced to their neighborhood, and we’re sympathetic to the viewpoints of the neighbors in the neighborhood we’re moving into, but we also have to protect the rights of the people we care for,” Rowland said. “We hope to overcome their discomfort with it by demonstrating that we can, and will be, good neighbors with everybody.” In response to those on Henearly Drive anticipating a neighborhood eyesore in the group home, the director of development said the 55-year-old nonprofit’s track record speaks for itself. “We keep them looking good, we maintain them and we respect the neighborhood values in terms of noise or any sensitivity of increased traffic,” he said. Dawn McCarthy, president of the Miller Place Special Education Support Group, said she doesn’t see the home as a blight on the neighborhood either. “I don’t think it’s going to interrupt qual-

ity of life at all,” McCarthy said. “Miller Place has a fairly decent-sized population of autistic children. I wonder how residents would feel if it was their children’s home. I can’t imagine it’s going to have an impact on anyone’s resale value.” An anonymous resident expressed concern over a purported risk of individuals leaving the home at night, which she said is why the residence will be electronically locked and equipped with alarms. Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) called the opposition to the group home disheartening. “I’ve explained to everybody, and this is the truth, that in almost 10 years in office, I have never ever had a problem with a group home in my council district,” Bonner said. “Group homes don’t have quality of life problems. There’s no loud music, there’s no speeding and no unkept properties. And what about the people need the servic— Jane Bonner who es? What about their quality of life? They’re human beings.” Henearly Drive resident Janine Biancaniello made it clear her opposition was aimed at the group home’s employees and not its six individuals. “When I come home from work, my home is my safe haven,” Biancaniello said.“I don’t want strangers up and down my block, 500 times, people I don’t know coming and going all day and night … [with] everybody outside smoking and on their phones and hanging out — no way — it doesn’t work like that. We’re going to have to pay their taxes while our property values go down. They’re going to change our way of life.” The group home is protected under the Padavan law, which allows group homes to supersede local zoning as long as they meet state codes. DDI said it is uncertain at this time when the group home will open.

Wading River resident rescues hundreds in Houston Air National Guard staff sergeant’s efforts in Texas, desire to help reverberate across North Shore communities by Desirée Keegan, alex PetrosKi anD Kevin reDDing Hurricane Harvey ripped through the Gulf of Mexico and the eastern coast of Texas as a Category 4 storm, dumping historic floodwaters on the region and leaving hundreds of thousands of people displaced from their homes, injured or worse. About 1,700 miles away several efforts to raise money and accumulate food and supplies for Page a22 those affected sprung up across the North Shore this past week into the weekend. Business owners, nonprofits, citizens and even kids pitched in to try to help in the early stages of getting victims back on their feet.

Video: The 106th Rescue Wing

Editorial comment

Wading River

The New York Air National Guard 106th Rescue Wing, based in Westhampton Beach, traveled to Texas to help with rescues. The group rescued nearly 300 people by boat and helicopter as of Aug. 29, military officials said, though the number has grown substantially since then. Wading River’s Ryan Dush, a 32-year-old staff sergeant, was one of about 140 members of the 106th Rescue Wing to help in Texas. Dush’s rescues included an airlift of an extended family of nine, including a 1-monthold child. The family members, three of whom were adults, were inside of a partially submerged pickup truck. Dush led the group members to the roof, where he strapped them into harnesses that hoisted them 60 feet up to the helicopter. According to Capt. Michael O’Hagan, the helicopter was already filled to capacity when the a male was spotted waving for help. It turned out to be the family of nine. Dush can be seen in a video on the 106th Rescue Wing’s YouTube channel holding the infant as he was pulled back up to the helicopter. It hit home for Dush, because he’s the father of a 1-year-old girl. “It was definitely an emotional rescue, going after an infant that was that small,” Dush told CNN. “I rescued another infant today. It’s an amazing feeling to come out and help people in their time of need.”

In multiple YouTube videos on the channel and elsewhere, family members can be seen smiling and waving to Dush, mouthing “thank you” as they are dropped off at the George R. Brown Convention Center in West Houston, which is serving as a shelter. “We are very well-acquainted with this type of a disaster, having lived through Hurricane Sandy only five years ago,” O’Hagan said. “We remember that in our time of need others came from around the nation to help us out, so we’re happy to do so. This is the very definition of what we do as the Air National Guard — these things we do so that others may live.”

Port Jefferson

In October it will be 40 years that Joseph Higgins has owned Tara Inn pub on Main Street in upper Port. When Higgins heard of the devastation in Houston and the surrounding region as a result of Hurricane Harvey, he said it resonated with him in a way that left him feeling like action was required. The pub owner decided to hold a benefit Sept. 4, Labor Day, to raise money for people affected by the massive storm. In addition to the sale of raffle tickets and Harvey relief T-shirts donated by Port Jefferson Sporting Goods, Higgins pledged to donate 100 percent of the bar’s food and beverage sales from the day to a group providing aid for victims in the region. Tara Inn amassed more than $15,200 in sales and donations during the course of the day, which will be donated to the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization which was created to honor the memory of Siller, who was a firefighter killed in the line of duty Sept. 11, 2001. The organization is asking for donations to help Harvey victims on its website. “Forty years ago I had eight kids, my wife and I didn’t have two nickels to rub together, and I said, ‘God, help me raise these kids,’ and he did,” the 86-year-old Higgins said during the event, while seated near the pub’s front door with a container for additional donations. “And I can’t thank God enough for all he has given me and that’s why we give back. I’ve had a great life, and I like to give back.” Bubba Davis, a Port Jefferson Village resident for 78 years, was among those in attendance for the fundraiser at Tara Inn. “This family here, they’ve always done that — they’re fantastic people,” Davis said.

Mount Sinai

A cardboard sign spray-painted with the words “Help Texas” greeted residents who stopped by the Mount Sinai Fire Department over the weekend. In an effort dubbed “Help Us Help Texas,” volunteer firefighters collected hundreds of items — including cases of water, pet food, nonperishable foods, diapers and paper towels — from members of the community, who dropped the goods off to the firehouse on Mount Sinai-Coram Road Sept. 2 and 3. As residents pulled into the parking lot with vehicles full of much-needed supplies for those suffering in the wake of the storm, members from junior firefighters to chiefs helped carry them in, while others got to work boxing them up to be delivered to shelters in Houston. “It’s so encouraging that everybody can get together and do what needs to be done under these types of circumstances,” said safety officer Dan Desmond, who has been a volunteer with the Mount Sinai department for 30 years. Desmond said he wasn’t surprised to see so many people stopping by to help. “There’s nothing stronger than the bond that Long Islanders have,” he said. “Whether it’s for somebody in Alaska or down in Texas, if somebody needs help, Long Island’s going to come together.” Adam Thomas, an 11-year volunteer who organized the event, said he immediately sprung into action because he has friends who serve as firemen near Houston. As he and other Mount Sinai volunteers couldn’t make the trip to Texas, he thought of the next best thing. Through Facebook, emails, phone calls and word of mouth, Thomas promoted the donation drive in the week preceding it. With a direct contact on the scene in Houston, Thomas was also able to compile a specific list of supplies for residents to contribute. Rather than clothing or cash, the most crucial supplies included batteries, flashlights, cleaning supplies, mops, hygiene products, masks, goggles and bug spray.

“My friends down there, they’ve been working all night, and sent me a text saying, ‘We need mosquito sprays’ because they’re getting slaughtered by them — they have fire ants all over the place too,” Thomas said. As another car full of items pulled in, Thomas said the initiative felt wonderful. “It’s not just me doing it, it’s everybody that’s helping,” he said. “I wouldn’t be able to do it without them.” Department lieutenant Rob Pobjecky, who helped Thomas get the event off the ground, pointed to another storm’s relief effort as inspiration. “I think that the outpouring of help that we got from around the nation with Hurricane Sandy really helped spawn this idea that we can give back and help others in their time of need,” Pobjecky said. The lieutenant said the event was evidence of social media being put to good use. “I’m not the biggest fan of social media, but in instances like this, I think it’s when it really is tremendous,” Pobjecky said. As one resident dropped off water, baby wipes, cat food and paper towels, she said of her donations: “It’s the least we can do, right?” To find out more about Hurricane Harvey relief efforts on the North Shore, visit www. tbrnewsmedia.com.

OpiniOn Editorial

Letters to the editor

Cowardly Congressman Lee Zeldin In the wake of Donald Trump’s disastrous news conference, I was moved to solicit Congressman Lee Zeldin’s opinion of our president’s ability to lead our country, and also to give him my views. In a letter I urged the congressman to be the kind of hero he was in Iraq and stand up on the floor of Congress and denounce Trump.

Imagine my surprise when I received a lengthy reply from Zeldin in less than 24 hours. However, my surprise quickly turned to dismay when I read his reply. Zeldin sent me four solid paragraphs of total politician speak: “let’s find common ground” ... “this is a time for unity” ... “initiatives” ... “we must all work together” ... and

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah! Not one word about our president’s ability to lead our country. Not one! What was Zeldin thinking? Was this supposed to satisfy me? Well it didn’t. Zeldin was a hero in Iraq, no question. As a congressman, he is a total coward.

Volunteers at the Mount Sinai Fire Department load up boxes of donated food and health care items to be sent to Texas.

Helping Houston while uniting the nation Across Long Island there’s been a rallying cry from Suffolk County government officials, fire departments, local businesses and residents for donations to support the victims of Hurricane Harvey in Texas and surrounding areas. These outpourings of charitable efforts have helped repoint our society in the right direction after recent events, but it shouldn’t take a national disaster to do so. Two poignant anniversaries on the horizon remind of us of our shared values as Americans, which shouldn’t only arise in times of crisis. It is not within our ability to control the actions of the Charlottesville protesters or national policies on immigration, but we have the personal power to decide how to respond. In the wake of the election of President Donald Trump (R) last November, Long Island communities dealt with an increased wave of hate crimes and bullying, which included a hate note found on a Rocky Point student’s desk, and swastikas spray-painted on walls at Northport High School. This summer, Charlottesville protesters’ messages rippled outward, creating divisions in our local communities between those of different skin colors, religions and sexual preferences. The day after, unity rallies were held in Huntington, Port Jefferson and Three Village areas in response. Long Islanders have proven time and time again we are stronger united than divided. Next week, on the 16th anniversary of the attacks, we’ll remember how in the months following Sept. 11, 2001, our communities pulled together to give love and support to those families who lost loved ones, and we displayed American flags as patriotic signs of our joint front against terrorism. After Hurricane Sandy, which struck five years ago this fall, we saw residents gather food and make monetary donations to help those whose homes were damaged rebuild their lives. The momentum of these powerful events can and should be carried forward, especially in the wake of Hurricane Irma now hitting Florida. These seemingly small but positive actions build a loving and supportive community that we not only can be proud of, but also want to live in. We encourage you to take a moment to pay it forward with an act of kindness. Reach out and contact one of the groups collecting donations for Hurricane Harvey victims to find out how you can help, attend a 9/11 memorial ceremony to remember those who gave their lives, thank a veteran for their service to our country or help a neighbor with a difficult chore. If you know someone whose actions have made a positive difference, we’re all ears — and we thank those who are helping to make a difference and save lives.

than 400 words and may be edited for length, libel, style and good taste. We do not publish anonymous letters. Please include a phone number and address for confirmation. Email letters to desiree@tbrnewspapers.com or mail them to The Village Beacon Record, P.O. Box 707, Setauket, NY 11733.

My wife and I had a reservation at Ruvo restaurant on a recent Sunday at noon. We usually park in the small parking lot in back of the restaurant off Maple Place, which has handicapped parking. When we arrived at 11:45 a.m. on this particular Sunday, the parking lot was blocked off and we were denied access to the handicapped spot in the lot. We were told by some-

one sitting in a car in the lot that we had to use valet parking. It appears that employees of the parking concession barricaded the small lot and were using it exclusively for valet parking. I guess they figured it was easier than driving up the hill to the high school. We were so incensed by this “shakedown” that we called the restaurant, canceled our

reservation and drove to a restaurant in Mount Sinai. My wife is on a walker and that particular handicapped spot gives her easier access to the restaurant. I thought that the valet parking program was voluntary and not designed to cause hardship on handicapped seniors.

Votes speak louder than words In the story “Zeldin talks Trump and more during exclusive interview,” in the Aug. 31 edition of The Port Times Record, the congressman attempts to put some light between himself and President Donald Trump, but despite occasional disagreements, Zeldin has (according to the very reputable tabulation of FiveThirtyEight.

com) voted 95.1 percent of the time in line with Trump’s position. Among many measures supported by Trump, Zeldin voted for The American Health Care Act (May 4); voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act (Jan. 13); voted to dismantle financial regulations of the Dodd-Frank Act (June 8); voted to repeal a rule requiring energy

companies to reduce waste and emissions, delaying implementation of ozone standards (July 18); voted for the repeal of a Department of Education rule on school accountability (Feb. 7), and many others. He may want to run away from his record but he can’t hide.

Keeping politics out of public pensions As a small business owner in New York, I don’t have much time to follow politics. I’m focused on doing the things I need to do to ensure that sales are strong and our employees are able to put food on their tables. But a recent proposal making its way through the New York State Legislature has me concerned not only for the future of my business, but the state economy as a whole. Earlier this year, state Sen. Liz Krueger (D-Manhattan) submitted a piece of legislation dubbed the Fossil Fuel Divestment Act. Krueger’s proposal would force the state comptrol-

ler to remove all fossil fuel-related investments from the New York pension system. Referred to as “divestment,” this legislation is a bad idea for several reasons — principally because it will reduce the value of the New York pension system, with taxpayers forced to make up the shortfall. Small business owners in New York have seen enough of politicians prioritizing politics over good economic policy, and the end result is nearly always a tax increase for the mom-and-pop companies that are the engine of the state’s economy. I don’t mind paying my fair

share, but I trust that our elected officials will use those tax dollars wisely. Legislation like the Fossil Fuel Divestment Act breaches that trust by forcing the state to make less lucrative investments, leaving taxpayers to foot the bill for political posturing that will drive down the value of the pensions we promise to our state employees. As a small business owner, I encourage the New York State Legislature to reject this legislation and keep politics out of public pensions.

OpiniOn Still loving the beautiful Carole King songs

H

ow difficult must it be to become someone else? Somehow, Abby Mueller, an actress who probably isn’t a household name, transforms into the legendary singer Carole King in the Broadway musical “Beautiful.” It’s a risky proposition. Many of us already know songs like “So Far Away” and “Will You Love Me Tomorrow,” which means we know what the song should sound like, even if we can’t sing it in tune. And yet, Mueller, who is clearly the star of a show about anBy Daniel Dunaief other star, pulls it off incredibly well, giving us the energy, the soul, the innocence and the ambition of a remarkable talent. Watching and, more importantly, lis-

D. None of the above

tening to the show is a transformative experience. Music has that remarkable power, bringing us back to a car when we might have often heard “Up on the Roof” or sending us back in our minds to a dance party where we threw ourselves across the floor of a friend’s house as we invented our own steps to “The Loco-Motion,” where “everybody’s doing a brand new dance, now.” Even though the dance isn’t so brand new anymore, it feels revived when we watch the high energy action on stage. My wife and I snuck away before the end of the summer to see the musical, which left us humming and singing the songs through the next day. The musical itself, like many other Broadway stories, is a collection of dialogue, a loose story and a compilation of rollicking music. The story line follows the musical career of King and her writing partner and husband Gerry Goffin, whom she married when she was 17 and pregnant. The audience feels as if it’s witnessing the birth of

these songs, as Goffin pairs his familiar lyrics to the music King wrote. The first half of the show, which is considerably longer than the second, is like a collection of musical candy tossed to a hungry audience. I snuck glances around the room at some of the other people fortunate enough to take a musical joyride and I saw that, like me, several of the guests, who were mostly in their late 40s and older, had smiles plastered on their faces. The second act doesn’t contain as many songs and delves into the more challenging and sadder parts of King’s life, where she endures the hardship of her husband’s infidelities and the creative tension that sometimes won the battle over his creative talent. King, as we know, lands on her feet, becoming the legendary composer, singer and songwriter who was inducted with Goffin into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1987 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990 for their songwriting. The energy on stage throughout the

show, with performances by a talented team reviving the style and moves of the Shirelles and the Drifters, rival the thrill of watching the cast of “Mamma Mia!” who belted out the familiar Abba songs. The difference here, however, is that the script is not a plot written to tie together songs, but evolves as the backstory behind the early days of music that long ago circled the United States and the world. “Beautiful: The Carole King Musical” definitely lives up to the awards it has won, including the 2015 Grammy for best musical theater album and its two Tony Awards in 2014, which include a well-deserved honor for Mueller. The only speed bump during this otherwise wonderful ride is the dramatic downshifting in the second act, where the drama, while no doubt true to life, slows the musical momentum. Still, the conclusion and the experience are rewarding, allowing us to reconnect with the legendary singer’s past, and our own.

Benefits of a good night’s sleep, and protein bars

I

f you have had a particularly nasty fight with your spouse or best friend today, consider this. How well did each of you sleep last night? It may not come as a surprise that a good night’s sleep makes one feel calm and good natured the next morning. But how many of us consider the ramifications of poor or too little sleep one night on our behavior and relationships the next day? We may feel out of sorts, perhaps below our awareness radar, and that can lead to more difficult and even By Leah S. Dunaief acrimonious interactions with those at work, in our daily routines and especially with our spouses. Even worse, it may affect our health. A study at Ohio State University of 43 couples and how their bickering could influence their health tracked the

subjects spouses most often argue over: managing money, spending family time together or an in-law intruding on their lives. According to an article in The New York Times Science section, “Relationship Problems? Try Getting More Sleep” by Tara Parker-Pope, Sept. 4, the study revealed that some couples argue calmly, even constructively, while others were “hostile and negative.” The difference? The hostile couples were likely not getting enough sleep, usually less than at least seven hours. So before you give up on a relationship, consider the sleep factor. With enough sleep, you will still have disagreements, but the tone of the conflicts will probably be more patient. The Ohio State study goes further. It purports to measure how marital discord together with sleep deprivation can negatively affect a person’s health. The way the university measured for this possible toxic effect was by taking blood samples from both members of the couple before and after an argument. The samples measured the level of inflammation in the body because inflammatory proteins have been linked with heart disease, cancer and

other health problems. The results showed that “marital discord is more toxic to your body when you haven’t gotten enough sleep.” Interestingly, when one member of the couple got adequate sleep, it mitigated the negative tone of the conflict, even if the other member was sleep deprived. So that suggests “a half-a-loaf is better than none” conclusion. The article goes on to reveal that some 25 percent of couples sleep in separate beds, presumably in order to get more undisturbed rest. “And when one relationship partner doesn’t sleep well, his or her partner is more likely to report poor health and well-being.” In conclusion: “The lesson, say the study authors, is that before concluding a relationship is in trouble, couples who regularly experience conflict should take stock not only of the relationship and how they are managing conflict, but also of their sleep habits.” The study was published in the May edition of the journal Psychoneuroendocrinology, hardly most people’s bedtime reading but offering an article to better understand the universal need in a marriage for adequate sleep.

In addition to all the authoritative information above, I can offer another nugget in the advice for marrieds department. Mine is anecdotal, not academic. Disagreements don’t go well if one or both members of a couple are hungry. Hunger starts out as insidious rather than full blown, and so it is often hard to identify the mood change when in the midst of a difficult discussion or even in an idyllic setting. But hunger can forcibly affect one’s outlook and certainly one’s patience. I found this to be particularly true with my husband. (I’m not making a gender specific allegation here, just sayin’.) We could be having a perfectly lovely time at the zoo or some other outing, and for no apparent reason, he would begin to get cranky. The level of his crankiness would rise as we continued to stroll. Fortunately I eventually figured it out and began to carry protein bars in my pocket. At the right moment, I would pull two out and offer him one. Within merely a couple of minutes, all was again right with the world.

Rocky Point rumbles with Ward Melville By Bill landon Shenendehowa has given the Ward Melville field hockey team a run for its money the last two seasons — outscoring the Patriots by one goal in the state semifinals last season and in double overtime in the state finals the year before. But this season, the Rocky Point field hockey team was first to press its luck with Ward Melville, forcing a shoot-out that the Patriots pulled away perfect from, 3-0, for the first win of the season, 3-2. “Respect to Rocky Point — they are a very aggressive and talented team, so I knew this wasn’t going to be a walk in the park,” Ward

Melville head coach Shannon Sioss said of its nonleague opponent. “In fact, we like to schedule our nonleagues to be competitive games — it helps us see where our weaknesses are and what we need to work on.” Rocky Point was first to score when senior midfielder Madison Sanchez dished the ball to senior forward Emily Molinaro. The Patriots had to shake off the cobwebs when they found themselves battling a scrappy, in-your-face Eagles squad that caused several turnovers. Ward Melville senior forward Kerri Thornton was first to break the ice. She evened the score for the Patriots with four minutes left until the halftime break, and rocked the back of the box on another solo with nine minutes left in the game for Ward Melville’s first lead. “We have a really experienced senior class and they’ve been down this road the last couple of years, so they’re on a mission right now,” Sioss said. “I thought that Shannon Coughlan held the middle of our field today and Kerri Thornton is always up for a good challenge, so it’s fun to watch her play.” Thornton said her team took the game very seriously, knowing Rocky Point’s pedigree. “I knew that Rocky Point was going to be good because they always battle with Miller Place in the county final,” the senior said. “So I wasn’t coming into this game thinking ‘Oh, we’re going to win [this game easily].’” Ward Melville drew a costly yellow card that led to Rocky Point defender Elizabeth Weiner scoring on a penalty shot to tie the game with four minutes remaining. “We were right in this game and we deserved to be in this game,” said Rocky Point head coach Katie Bittner. “In the beginning we dominated, we scored first, and I think

Ward Melville woke up a little bit, but we also got a little tired.” Despite being a player down in the final minute of regulation, the Eagles held their own until the clock expired. Ward Melville, still a man up, tried to take home the win in sudden death overtime, but the Eagles returned to full strength two minutes in without Ward Melville getting a shot off. Rocky Point went down a player yet again in the final four minutes, but neither team could score. “I don’t think that they played bad or that we got lucky — I honestly think that we were the better team,” Bittner said. “We made some mental mistakes that put us a man down, but when the field is this big, it’s huge that we held

our own with our five field players to their six.” Then came the best-of-five shootout, where Thornton and seniors Lexi Reinhardt and Kate Mulham helped Ward Melville to the 3-0 win, while goalkeeper Meghan Lorenzen guarded the Patriots’ cage to keep the Eagles off the board. Rocky Point opens its league season at home Sept. 7, hosting Sayville at 4 p.m. Despite the loss, Bittner has realistic goals. “I’m not looking for an undefeated season by any means, I’m looking to get us to where [Ward Melville] got last year, which is a state championship,” she said. “And with this group, I know they can do it. This was truly a learning experience.”
