A window through history BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM The near-300-year old William Miller House in Miller Place hummed with historical activity the weekend of Sept. 28. The Miller PlaceMount Sinai Historical Society hosted its annual Country Fair, bringing reenactors, local history buffs and community together. Participants experienced open-hearth cooking and pottery making, while more local his-

torians shared information on Colonial and Victorian games and how wampum beads were made. The Revolutionary War reenactors, the 3rd NY Regiment, Long Island Cos., shot off muskets and shared in the collective history of Long Island’s Revolutionary past. Meanwhile, Harry Randall, the historical society’s barn curator, showed off his huge collection of farm implements and tools in the old barn to the rear of the William Miller House.

Retelling the story of attacks on America, and the flag that survived it all BY RICH ACRITELLI DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Just recently, Joe Cognitore, commander of VFW Post 6249 in Rocky Point spoke to the Rocky Point High School History Honors Society. He addressed the tragic attacks of 9/11, 18 years ago and an uncovered part of ground zero that was presented to this North Shore area. Cognitore recalled a past beautiful fall day, the afternoon of Oct. 4, when the Rocky Point school district held a major patriotic and remembrance ceremony only weeks after the terror attacks. It was the goal of this school district to remember and honor all of those national and local people that were impacted by these attacks. As Americans watched the rescue and recovery efforts in the city, they were reminded of a new war that was waged against the Taliban and al-Qaida some 19 days after Manhattan was hit by supporters of terrorism. Those days saw a tremendous burden weighing on the minds of citizens, and this program presented a united front to support all of our Americans at home and abroad. Local residents filled the bleachers of Rocky Point High School and in front of them was a Town of Brookhaven concert mobile. The VFW post marched in the colors and presented our flag to a crowd that was overcome with the

memory of the four graduates that were killed from these attacks. The sounds of “God Bless America,” the armed forces music and “America the Beautiful” were played to the crowd. Veterans were invited to stand to represent different branches of the armed services that were all on alert during the earliest moments of the War on Terror. There were all of the local, state and federal government representatives, World War II veterans, and Boy Scouts that were all present on this day to present a dynamic unity. This camaraderie resembled the same feelings that Americans felt when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor Dec. 7, 1941. Flags were flown all over the nation and people stuck bumper stickers on their cars in support of the residents of New York City. People wrapped yellow ribbons around trees for those soldiers who going to be deployed. Cognitore and the other organizers of that event decided on a unique angle to demonstrate patriotism. Calverton-based Sky Dive Long Island planned to make a jump over the skies of this school with a large flag that would be seen well above the heads of the people. Only a few weeks before this jump, it was discovered under the debris of Lower Manhattan. It was originally flown outside of the World Trade Center and it was located by a volunteer recovery worker.

The plane took off from Calverton with jumpers Curt Kellinger, a Port Authority police officer and Ray Maynard. The crew made a memorable landing with a tattered yet historic flag that landed on the Rocky Point football field. Once the flag made it to the ground, it was presented to a representative of the Port Authority and brought back to the city. That year, it was flown over Yankee Stadium during the World Series, at Super Bowl XXXVI and at the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. Even as this flag was scarred from the attacks of 9/11, it showed the resilience of our country to quick-

ly rebound and rebuild. The flag that once was displayed at Post 6249 has a permanent home at the 9/11 Memorial in New York City. Today, millions of people have visited this well-known museum and they can see a flag that has strong roots of patriotism and remembrance to this North Shore community. Rich Acritelli is a social studies teacher at Rocky Point High School and an adjunct professor of American history at Suffolk County Community College. The Rocky Point High School History Honors Society contributed to this story.

MEMORIAL HIKE Continued from A3

The 12-year-old Shoreham resident was pronounced dead the following day. The legal battle is ongoing for Thomas Murphy, the Holbrook man who has been charged in the death of Andrew. The trial is expected to begin in November, though that could be delayed. The hundreds of people gathered there came from all over Suffolk County, even as far away as Huntington, Rabbitt said. Members of the Miller Place Panthers football team also came to hike in support of the McMorris family. Andrew’s father, John, is a guidance counselor at the Miller Place High School. Scouts and community members signed up to take a 1-mile, 5-mile or 10-mile version of the hike, helping to fundraise for the Andrew McMorris Foundation and to help create scholarships in Andrew’s name. The Boy Scouts council was also accepting donations to help build a new lodge at Baiting Hollow Scout Camp in Wading River, which will be named after Andrew. “What a wonderful turnout to celebrate Andrew,” said Matt Yakubowski, scoutmaster for Troop 161, as he and his troop boarded the buses to take them to the hike’s staging grounds. “It’s going to be a touching day.” The hike started at the Pine Barrens Infor-

Suffolk County Police have notified they are looking for three people they say have stolen items from shops in both Selden and Centereach in July and September.

mation Center in Manorville before moving through the Pine Barrens. The hike took participants past the place where Andrew was killed for those looking to pay respects. Troop 161 has done much in the year since Andrew’s death to both memorialize him and work toward healing. The troop created a garden outside the Brookhaven townowned Robert E. Reid Sr. Recreation Center in Shoreham to commemorate his life. Future Eagle Scout projects are planned to help advocate against drunk driving. Later that day, the Andrew McMorris Foundation hosted a benefit at Suffolk Theater in Riverhead, with the proceeds going to support the nonprofit.

Town

Brookhaven presents $312.9 million 2020 budget BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

The Town of Brookhaven is proposing a $312.9 million budget that Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) called “a taxpayer’s budget.” The proposed budget is a near $10 million increase from last year’s $302 million, but officials say there will only be a minor increase in taxes. In a budget media briefing meeting Sept. 30, officials said there will be a small increase to property taxes, but are looking to end deficit spending, reduce debt and restore surpluses. The 2020 tentative operating budget of $312,868,413 is not set to dip into the town’s fund balance, essentially its rainy day bank, for the second year in a row. The new budget stays at the 2 percent state tax levy cap. In 2019, the town did not appropriate any use of its fund balances, effectively the rainy day funds in case of need for emergency spending. This is compared to nearly 10 years ago during the Great Recession where the town was using approximately $28.5 million in fund

balance to balance the budget. The town is also looking to decrease debt, with new capital projects coming in at $43.9 million, which is $14.6 million less than 2019. With the budget, the town is looking to eliminate the current $15.8 million pension debt and eliminate the $30.1 million in “pipeline“ debt, or the extra money left over from the close of bonded projects, either unused or unappropriated. “It’s move it or lose it for pipeline debt,” Romaine said. The new operating budget also sets aside $1.6 million additional funds in the post-closure landfill reserve. The town’s landfill is set to close by 2024. The 2020 tentative capital budget sets up public improvement projects established via bonds and reserves. This includes $26.4 million for the Highway Department comprising road repairs, drainage, traffic safety, facilities and machinery/equipment. This is in addition to a $5 million increase for road resurfacing in the operating budget from $10 to $d15 million. “That’s part of the supervisor’s commitment

to spend $15 million a year in road resurfacing,” said Matt Miner, town chief of operations. “This is the first year that will be going into effect.” Those funds do not include funding from New York State, especially the Consolidated Local Street and Highway Improvement Program — known as CHIPS — from the state Department of Transportation, worth on average about $4.5 million to the town, according to officials. “The Highway Department will have sufficient funding, far in excess of what they’ve had in the past years,” Romaine said. In attempts to reduce debt in a faster manner, the town has looked toward 12-year loans instead of 20-year loans. Brookhaven officials hope to reduce overall debt to $20 million by 2021 from $600 million at the end of 2018. Despite a complete restructuring of the town’s garbage and recycling apparatus, the annual cost for garbage pickup will remain flat at $350 for a single home, with each home on average getting around 171 pickups per year. Romaine said the town has looked to reduce the amount of revenues gained through

property taxes. Currently property tax makes up 53.3 percent of the 2020 tentative budget. Commissioner of Finance Tamara Branson said the town has looked to focus on getting grants instead of spending through capital expenditure involving tax-raising initiatives. “We have 50 grant projects that are public improvement projects,” she said, adding that the town has received grant funds of $63.2 million. Elected officials will also see a small raise in annual pay. Council members will receive a $1,446 increase to $73,762, while the supervisor will be bumped by $2,398 to $122,273. The highway superintendent at $121,515, town clerk and tax receiver will each receive around $2,000 in increases. Elected officials have been seeing an approximate $2,000 increase in pay for the past few years. The new budget went before the Town Board for preliminary adoption Oct. 3. A public hearing on the budget will take place Nov. 7, but town finance officials said they don’t expect the budget to change much between then and now. The full budget must be adopted by Nov. 20.

Pascual aims to unseat longtime town receiver of taxes BY DAVID LUCES DLUCES@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM “I want to be an advocate for the people,” said Dom Pascual, a Farmingville resident running for Town of Brookhaven receiver of taxes in the November elections. “I live in a blue-collar community that feels that they are not being represented.” Pascual, who is running on the Democratic ticket, said an important issue for him is helping to keep young families on the Island. “I want to keep them here, right now it’s not good — the cost of living is too high,” he said. “We need housing for working families — there’s no jobs on Long Island, taxes are too high.”

Pascual is vying to secure a four-year term in the upcoming election against longtime town receiver of taxes, Louis Marcoccia (R). This will not be Pascual’s first time running for elected office. In 2017, he ran for the 4th district Suffolk County Legislature seat but ultimately lost to incumbent Tom Muratore (R-Ronkonkoma). “I’m fighting for change, we have had a receiver that has been around for a long time and hasn’t had an opponent in 12 years,” Pascual said. If elected, the challenger said he would make his office more accessible and have more available hours to accommodate residents. He said he also wants to look into more tax relief programs for senior citizens, veterans and emergency response workers as well as getting more homeowners into

the STAR program. He also wants to make it possible for residents to see multiple years of tax bills when filing their taxes, host workshops aimed at explaining to residents where their taxes are going and helping them through the filing process. “It’s about educating people on the resources that are available for them and letting them know we can do these things,” the Farmingville resident said. Pascual, who was raised in Dix Hills, currently works as a bank compliance and financial crimes attorney. He graduated from Binghamton University and received his law degree from Vermont Law School. Previously, he has worked for JPMorgan Chase and for five years he worked as a New York City administrative law judge hearing Section 8 rent and fraud cases. Pascual is also a commissioned officer in the New York Army National Guard. The challenger said his previous lines of work would help him in the new position, as he had experience reviewing budgets and has reviewed billions of dollars of transactions looking for indicators of corruption, criminal activity or other violations. Other areas Pascual would like to address are developments approved in the town. In terms of planning and land use he would like the town and the Brookhaven Industrial Development Agency to scale back on giving tax breaks to developers. “These tax breaks are not affordable,” he

said. “Taxes and student loans are crippling young people [in the Town of Brookhaven].” Pascual said the position, while tasked with the town’s budget and taxes, is connected to other facets of the government. He wants to be an honest broker for residents. “I want to make sure we can help get more roads paved,” he said. “The town is already in debt. How are we going to pay those off? What’s going to happen when the landfill closes?” Pascual reiterated that he believes it is time for change in Brookhaven. “The establishment has been in the town for a long time — it’s time for new blood,” he said.

SWR High School wins prestigious Blue Ribbon Award Shoreham-Wading River High School was one of 362 schools recognized as Blue Ribbon Schools for 2019 as announced by U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos Sept. 26. The distinction is the second time the school has been honored, being one of the early honorees in the 37-year-old program as a 1987-88 Blue Ribbon School. “This honor points to the collaborative efforts of our administrators, teachers, students, families and larger community in helping to encourage, engage and educate students who graduate from our high school as productive members of society,” said SWR High School Principal Frank Pugliese. In her remarks via a video message to the honorees DeVos stated the schools important work in preparing students for successful careers and meaningful lives.

“As a National Blue Ribbon School, your school demonstrates what is possible when committed educators hold all students and staff to high standards and create vibrant, innovative cultures of teaching and learning,” she said. The department recognizes all schools in one of two performance categories, based on all student scores, student subgroup scores and graduation rates: • Exemplary High Performing Schools are among their state’s highest performing schools are measured by state assessments or nationally normed tests. • Exemplary Achievement Gap Closing Schools are among their state’s highest performing schools in closing achievement gaps between a school’s student groups and all students.

Mount Sinai remains undefeated after homecoming game

Mount Sinai looks to keep its perfect record intact when they hit the road Oct. 12 to face undefeated Shoreham-Wading River, for sole possession of first place in League IV. Kickoff is at 2 p.m. Pictures clockwise from top right: Mustangs solemnly take the field in memory of their late high school principal Robert Grable; running back Matthew Graffeo, a junior, finds a hole; sophomore running back Joseph Spallina finds the endzone; senior running back Matthew LoMonaco stretches out for a pass.

BY BILL LANDON DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Mount Sinai dominated their homecoming game through three quarters of play outscoring the visiting Royals 33-6 before Port Jeff rallied in the final quarter. Royals quarterback Luke Filippi (filling in for the injured Sam Florio) found senior Aidan Kaminska on a pair of short yardage pass plays for his second and third touchdown in the game where the senior set a Section XI record with 17 catches for 233 yards placing him second in total receptions in a single game. But despite Kaminska’s record the Royals fell to the Mustangs 39-20 Sept. 28. Mount Sinai sophomore running back Joseph Spallina led the way with a 16-yard run, a 23-yard pass reception and an 85-yard interception all finding the end zone for the Mustangs. Senior quarterback Brandon Ventarola punched in from short yardage, while Matthew LoMonaco scored on a 14-yard pass play and Michael Trepeta found the endzone on a 3-yard run. The win boosts the Mustangs to 4-0, tied with Shoreham-Wading River in their division at the season’s halfway point.

Editorial

Letters to the Editor

The opioid epidemic is so expansive that it seems impossible that one individual can end the overdoses and deaths and the related crimes. But even in the smallest municipalities — the villages, fire districts, school districts, people have the opportunity to institute real change. On Sept. 26, members of the Suffolk County Village Officials Organization met to hear from the district attorney, the police commissioner and the sheriff about the current state of the opioid crisis. Presenters reviewed a wide range of resources and programs available in the county, but also emphasized that we all need to think outside the box to collectively address the explosion of narcotic drug use, which has also led to a local increase in illegal gun crimes and sex trafficking. Village officials should hold public information sessions on what was learned at this meeting and create committees comprised of residents committed to help. People need to be better informed. In turn, other community leaders can invite speakers into local schools and religious centers to speak on the topic. The facts are alarming. In 2018, Suffolk police launched a sex trafficking investigation unit that has identified and interviewed over 200 local sex trafficking victims. County leaders say that the people behind these crimes exploit the young women by making them dependent upon opioids and demanding repayment through sex. Instead of calling it prostitution, law enforcement prefers that people now refer to these crimes as sex trafficking, and a modern day form of slavery. An increase in narcotics-related, court-authorized surveillance in the county through search warrant and phone-line eavesdropping has translated into a 49 percent increase in illegal handgun seizures and a doubling of illegal shotgun seizures. If you are an elected official in one of these villages, also consider opening a line of communication on the topic with residents. Submissions can be anonymous. The county has outlined as its goals for the explosion of narcotic use and related crimes: prevention, treatment and recovery. Whatever your ideas are to better accomplish this, please let it become more widely known with your local elected officials, who can convey this to other branches of government. As a news publication, we also welcome your input. Since 2013, an estimated 2,109 people have died of an opioid overdose in the county, according to its statistics. That toll would be higher, but thankfully Narcan, the opioid overdose antidote, is credited with saving lives and has reversed 599 overdoses so far in 2019. Clearly, though, there still is ongoing, nightmarish trouble stemming from prescription pain killers and illicit opioid addictions. Action is needed. For help, people can call these emergency numbers: Suffolk County Substance Abuse Hotline: 631-979-1700 Suffolk County Police Department Crime Stoppers and Drug Activity Hotline: 631-852-NARC (6272). Messages can also be sent as a text to “TIP SUFFOLK” at 888-777, but investigators prefer the open dialogue of a telephone call. All calls are confidential.

As someone who has been part of the St. Anthony of Padua R.C. Church for many years, and as treasurer of the Rocky Point Sound Beach Chamber of Commerce, I take great exception to the recent actions of Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai). After being invited by VFW Post 6249 to participate in the concerts at my church along with my fellow members of the chamber of commerce, Sarah Anker decided we weren’t welcome.

erable time and resources to set up tables at the Aug. 30 concert based on a written invitation from the VFW, which sponsored the event. When Sarah Anker threatened to call the police to have the businesses removed from the grounds of my own church, I took it as a great insult. Legislator Anker clearly uses the concerts to promote herself politically. The concerts are funded by Suffolk County through the 3 percent Hotel/Motel Tax and the VFW is the event sponsor. What

right does Sarah Anker have to shut out local businesses? I have donated my time as a CYO basketball coach over multiple seasons, making numerous friends in the community, as well as promoting sportsmanship, a love of basketball, and valuable life lessons for the youth in our Rocky Point community. I hope that the poor example of civic behavior as exhibited by Sarah Anker is not emulated by our young residents. Charles Todaro Rocky Point

Carson, Murphy and Climate Strike II News about last Friday’s second Youth Climate Strike by an estimated four million protesters worldwide was sadly overshadowed in the U.S. by breaking impeachment news. Strike organizers dedicated the global event to the memory of Rachel Carson because Sept. 27 was the 57th anniversary of the publication of her revolutionary book “Silent Spring” in 1962. Locally, it is worth noting the connection that local environmental champion Robert Cushman Murphy had to Carson and her book, which has been often listed as one of the most important nonfiction books of the 20th century. Murphy, who lived in Mount Sinai, Old Field and Stony Brook over his lifetime, was world famous for his research on oceanic birds, and Rachel Carson was famous as the author of

“The Sea Around Us.” While writing “Silent Spring,” Carson sought advice and information from her friend and colleague. In the book, Carson wrote about how Murphy and five others sued the federal government in 1958 to stop indiscriminate aerial DDT spraying across Long Island. The lawsuit went all the way to the Supreme Court, and while unsuccessful, set an important precedent for private citizens’ right to advocate in the courts for the environment. Subsequent events led Murphy, his wife, Grace, and others to form Conservationists United of Long Island, which was a predecessor of today’s global Environmental Defense Fund. When first published, “Silent Spring” was attacked by scientists representing the formidable power of chemical and agricultural corporations.

Carson’s bombshell hit came out while she was physically weak from a long struggle with cancer, and she had limited ability to defend her work in the media. Murphy and others became Carson’s stand-ins, defending her work at this early critical time, and the book went on to become a best seller for decades. In 1972, DDT was banned for agricultural use in the United States. We all owe a great debt to the bravery and dedication of Murphy and the early “conservationists” and should be proud that so many came from our local area. They can and should be remembered as important role models to inspire the brave young people who are showing such dedication to saving our fragile planet today. Tom Lyon Mount Sinai

Recently, I held an environmentally focused town hall in my district as an opportunity to hear what my constituents are concerned about. What emerged from the comments was a demand for clean and safe drinking water in Long Island. People expressed their fear of being faced with a water crisis caused by pollution. This past legislative session, we codified the constitutional right of all New Yorkers to clean air and water, and endowed the state with the duty to protect its citizens and New York’s natural resources. For Long Islanders, our most important and precious resource is our water, a necessity we just cannot live without. For 2.8 million Long Islanders, the sole source for clean, fresh drinking water is through groundwater accessed

from aquifers. Any potential contamination must be addressed swiftly and without hesitation. This is why the rise of emerging contaminants is so alarming for Long Islanders. Emerging contaminants such as 1,4-dioxane and perfluoroalkyls (PFAS) have been classified as contaminants by the EPA and identified as hazardous. However, their actual consequences have not yet been established because they do not break down easily and persist in water for a long time. Though the EPA has not established a maximum contamination level (MCL), New York State is working on implementing an MCL for 1,4-dioxane as 1 part per billion and 10 parts per trillion for PFAS. In light of federal inaction, it is the state’s obligation to take steps to protect its residents.

That’s why I wrote a law — recently passed by the Legislature — to empower public water authorities to hold polluters accountable for the costs of removing these contaminants from our water. This law ensures that our residents will have future recourse against the harmful, long-term effects as they emerge. The State of New York is also providing historic funding for water districts to invest in infrastructure to remove these contaminants from the water. These measures go far in commencing initiatives that will protect and conserve our water. However, there is still so much work to be done in the fight for clean water. This is not just a fight of the present, but for our future. NY State Sen. Jim Gaughran Northport

Swimming away from high school problems

W

e think we know our kids, but really the converse is true. My son recently told me that he thinks I’m angry every time I swim laps in a pool. At first, I dismissed the observation because swimming brings me peace. And then I thought about my junior year of high school, when I joined my one and only swim team. I loved the water, I had a few friends on the team and I was D. None determined to do of the above something difBY DANIEL DUNAIEF ferent when each day in school felt like a bad version of “Groundhog Day,” long before the Bill Murray film arrived in theaters.

I had several shortcomings. For starters, I didn’t know how to do a flip turn. To the experienced swimmer, that’s as laughable as asking a NASCAR driver how to change gears or a baseball player which end of the bat to hold. It’s a basic skill. I’d approach the wall, gasping for air, roll to my right and kick hard. Most of the time, I’d slam my foot into the lane marker and, on occasion would kick the poor swimmer in lane 5. I swam in lane 6, which was where swimmers who needed life jackets trained. The best swimmers occupied lane 1. They never seemed to need a breath, had hydrodynamic bodies that made them look like torpedoes and seemed slightly bored after an exhausting practice. Oh, and they also wore Speedo bathing suits well. For someone accustomed to the boxing trunk bathing suits that I still wear today, Speedos seemed way too small. Besides, I’m not sure the small, colorful lightweight suits allowed me to shave even a tenth of a second off my barge-floating-downstream speed.

Each practice, the coach would tell us to swim 20 laps back and forth as a warm-up. By the end of the warm-up, which I never finished, we started practice. At that point, I was leaning hard on the wall, wondering whether I should climb out of the pool and grab some French fries. When we dove off the blocks at the start of the race, I must have entered the water at the wrong angle. My goggles scraped down my nose and landed in front of my mouth, which made it impossible to see or breathe. Flopping blindly, I’d zigzag in slow motion across the pool. Each practice completely drained me. My exhausted arms pulled through the water, splashing where others were gliding. My legs slapped at the water, instead of serving as propellers. And yet, something about the incredible energy required to survive each practice helped me, both mentally and physically. I’m sure I lost weight. After all, such inefficient swimming burns off considerably

more calories than floating effortlessly hither and yon. More importantly, though, I worked out everything that bothered me in my head as I listened to the gurgling noises my mouth made while I wiggled back and forth. Each lap, I replayed conversations that went awry, standardized tests that were like electroshock therapy and the missed social opportunities. Gnashing my teeth, I worked out frustrations that built up during the day or the week. The herculean effort either removed toxins or prevented them from cluttering my brain. Sitting in my room at home after practice, I felt more at peace than I had at any point during the day. But what my son must have perceived as I do laps today are the habits I formed during that winter season. My body instantly remembers how to use swimming to release tension. He may see the residual physical manifestations of the cauldron of emotions that I carried back and forth across that icy pool. And, hey, maybe I’d look like a happier swimmer if I ever learned how to do a flip turn.

A delightful escape to a more refined world

I

t’s a time of transition. We can feel the weather changing and the seasons moving on. One day the temperature is 75 degrees, the next it might be 85 degrees, then in come the 60 degree days and the 50 degree nights. We live in a place where nature cycles through its daily gyrations to quarterly new worlds. Those changes, if not on a daily basis, are nonetheless predictable from one year to the next. What aren’t predictable are the political gyrations we are witnessBetween ing from day to you and me day. This makes for an uncertain BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF outlook for the future, whether for our government, our economy or our society, and a certain ongoing anxiety for

our citizenry. Just look at the front page of any daily newspaper or listen to the top of the news on radio or television or read the blasts of news on your cellphone, and it’s enough to make for discomfort. There is undoubtedly a story about the latest bits of information seeping out from Republican President Donald Trump’s phone call to the Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky in which he asked about former vice president Joe Biden, a Democratic presidential candidate, and his son Hunter’s business dealings there. The story then quickly jumps to impeachment inquiries and who may question whom on the matter, along with polls purportedly measuring support for such action. The words “treason” and “civil war” have crept into the media reports. There has also got to be something about North Korea’s missiles being recently launched toward Japan even though — or perhaps just because — talks between the United States officials and the North Koreans seem to be back on again. One of the latest projectiles actually landed in Japan’s exclusive economic zone, making the Japanese exceedingly nervous.

A story about the negative effects of the tariffs on the global economy is a given. Global growth is predicted to slow to half of what was expected six months ago, and the evidence of the slowdown can be seen in less production on the factory floors. This translates into fewer jobs, less pay and a reduced standard of living. That means less consumer expenditures, which causes the economy to slow further. We also know the consequences of a faltering economy can be significant social unrest. The global picture is further complicated by Brexit, that almost comic yet deadly serious tug-of-war playing out in British politics, which threatens future commerce and trade across the English Channel and indeed the world. With uncertainty, money is flowing into the American dollar, seen as a safe haven. This in turn makes the dollar stronger, which makes exports more expensive, further depressing trade. So is there still room on the front page and in our minds for news of Iran, Peru, Hong Kong and India with its onion crisis? There is also immigration, possible bias in Harvard admissions, racist threats, more

#MeToo, gun control and climate change to vie for space in the news roundup. And more on taxing the wealthy, the opioid crisis, breaking up big tech and, of course, the runup to the 2020 election are regular offerings in the news. No wonder “Downton Abbey” is proving to be so popular at the movies. What delightful escapism to a world of orderly households, elaborate dinners and table settings, gorgeous clothing, comforting etiquette, bucolic scenery and crises over whether or not to add a refrigerator in the kitchen. The biggest challenge in that world is preparing properly for a visit from the king and queen of England. So here is the antidote to the frenzy of the news. Either take some time away, as I did this past weekend when I left town to visit family and friends. I completely shut down newscasts, even those on my cellphone. Or go to the movies and enter the polite world of 1927 and the Crawley family. Or read the local news in the hometown papers and on the web and social media. There you know that if it’s from TBR News Media it’s both trustworthy and sane.
