Stony Brook students study freshwater lake BY PHIL CORSO

Long Island’s largest freshwater lake is not what it used to be, but North Shore lawmakers and educators are teaming up to bring it back. Darcy Lonsdale and her students attending the Stony Brook

University School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences arrived at the docks of the 243acre Lake Ronkonkoma on Tuesday morning, equipped with various aquatic testing supplies to study marine life in the waters. Bill Pfeiffer, a member of the Nesconset Fire Department’s water rescue team, helped guide the students as residents and government officials flanked the docks in talks of a Lake Ronkonkoma that

once was. Pfeiffer has been diving in and exploring around Lake Ronkonkoma for years, mapping out the bottom of the lake and chronicling the different kinds of debris on its floor, which he said includes anything from parts of old amusement park rides to pieces of docks. “This lake needs a healthy amount of attention,” he said. “It has been appearing clearer, but [Hurricane] Sandy turned it

into a brown mud hole again.” The lake is home to various species, including largemouth bass and chain pickerel. Members of the Lake Ronkonkoma Advisory Task Forced hosted Pfeiffer and the students with hopes of gaining a deeper understanding of the waters and encouraging the four jurisdictions overseeing it — Brookhaven, Islip and Smithtown towns and Suffolk County — to continued on page A7

State pol aims to boost green energy in schools By Rohma aBBas

School districts looking to go green could see more green for it, if proposed state legislation to help school districts pay for alternative energy projects makes its way through Albany. New York State Sen. Carl Marcellino (R-Syosset) has sponsored legislation that would strengthen the state’s support for alternative energy in school districts. Currently, there’s state building aid available for the installation of wind and solar systems, but Marcellino’s legislation allows all types of alternative energy systems to be eligible for building aid. Also, currently, only alternative energy systems that meet an 18-year payback window are eligible for aid, but Marcellino’s proposed law removes that requirement, according to Debbie Peck Kelleher, director of the state Senate Investigations and Government Operations Committee. “It would allow all systems to get the building aid,” Kelleher said. Most districts see an average reimbursement between 70 to 75 percent of the project cost, she said. In an interview last week, Marcellino said school districts turning to alternative energies provide a boon to taxpayers, because of energy savings in utility costs

over time. “It’s a win-win all the way around.” Marcellino’s legislation has been referred to the Senate’s education committee, and has support from assemblymen Chad Lupinacci (R-Melville) and Andy Raia (R-East Northport). Long Island school officials have pondered solar panel installations, and some districts have embarked on projects of their own. Last year, Miller Place school district green-lighted a $4.3 million project to install solar panels on the roofs of its four school buildings. The project qualified for $3.7 million in state aid, according to Danny Haffel, the executive director of energy solutions on Long Island of Johnson Controls, a Wisconsin-based technology and energy-savings solutions company that the district worked with. Haffel added that the project would save the district more than $243,000 — close to half of its utility budget — in annual energy costs. Under the contract with Johnson Controls, the district, which would lease the panels for $362,528 a year over 15 years, would be guaranteed those savings, so that in case the savings are not realized through the solar panels, Johnson Controls would foot the bill. “The Miller Place school district’s decision to pursue alternative energy projects

including solar power will not only benefit the environment, but is anticipated to produce financial savings for the district,” Superintendent Marianne Higuera said in a statement. “If the use of alternative energy sources like solar can produce bottom-line cost savings for other school districts or municipalities like it is projected to do for our school district, then this option may be beneficial.” Beefing up state aid to school districts

for these kinds of systems is a good thing, Haffel said in an interview this week. “What would be really cool and to me would make sense — which would in the long run help every school district and every taxpayer — is to make all renewable work 100 percent aidable and that the school district would receive 100 percent state aid,” he said. “Now you have no electric bill, and you just helped out the taxpayer for the rest of their lives.”

It was smooth sailing off the North Shore when the first ever Stony Brook Cup Regatta hit the waters off the beach in Port Jefferson Harbor on Saturday. The winds were just right, making for ideal racing conditions. Stony Brook University hosted the event, and the Setauket Yacht Club pro-

vided facilities for the day. Stony Brook finished second, after Fordham University. Other schools participating were Princeton, Columbia, West Point and Sacred Heart. The race was launched from the beach in Port Jefferson and was held in front of the Setauket Yacht Club. — Phil Corso

HISTORY CLOSE AT HAND

Setauket history stretches down East Coast Washington, D.C. trip ties pieces of nation’s past to North Shore, including famed Culper Spy Ring by beverly C. Tyler

What do spy codes, a Setauket officer’s saber, cherry blossoms, pandas and a postal museum have in common? This past weekend my family, including eight grandchildren, traveled to Washington, D.C. to visit our nation’s capital together and discover new things. The trip began with a visit to the National Cryptologic Museum about 30 minutes north of Washington. Here, the story of the secret world of intelligence is detailed with interactive displays and cipher technology from the 16th century to today. One section details the activity of spies during the Revolutionary War, especially General Washington’s Culper Spy Ring, and allows visitors, especially children, to “Create Your Own Secret Cipher,” “Hidden Message,” “Invisible Ink Secrets” and “Make a Secret Code with a Dictionary.” There is also a “CrypoKids Challenge,” with messages to decode throughout the museum. There is, of course, much more to see here, including captured German and Japanese code machines. The recently renovated Smithsonian National History Museum along the National Mall includes the exhibit “The Price of Freedom: Americans at War.” Covering the period from the French and Indian War to the present, “exploring ways in which wars have been defining episodes in American history,”

the exhibit includes a stunning array of artifacts, including a dragoon saber belonging to our own Major Benjamin Tallmadge, General Washington’s chief of intelligence and son of the Setauket Presbyterian Church minister. A late spring provided an April 11 blooming for the cherry trees around the Tidal Basin at the Jefferson Memorial. More than one million people attended the cherry blossom festival in Washington, D.C., however we all went to the National Zoo to watch the pandas play and eat bamboo. A great choice considering the crowds and we did get wonderful pictures of the blossoms the day before. We spent one morning at the National Postal Museum across the street from Union Station. This may be the best museum in D.C.; it is definitely the most interactive Smithsonian museum. Visitors can sort mail in a postal train car, ride in a postal truck, select routes to deliver mail across the country and follow a new mail route from New York City to Boston in the 17th century, which became the Boston Post Road decades later. Other activities include letters written home during the many wars and conflicts of the past three centuries and the opportunity to follow these letters as they travel from place to place. In one simulation of a post office, people come up to the postal window and interact with the clerk. One young girl came up to the window and asked that the Christmas list she was carry-

ing be sent to Santa at the South Pole. The clerk responded that Santa was actually at the North Pole. The young girl said, “Oh, that’s all right, this is my brother’s list.” There are many other wonderful stories in the postal museum, including poignant letters written home during the Civil War. There are also real stories about mail fraud, letter bombs and how the security system of the United States Post Office Department dealt with crime. And not to ignore the Hollywood ap-

proach, there are stories about all the movies made about every postal subject from the Pony Express to prohibition. All in all, it was an experience for visitors of all ages. In four days, we also visited the Natural History Museum, the Air and Space Museum, and walked around the Washington monument and Lincoln Memorial. All the Smithsonian museums belong to all Americans and admission is free. Beverly Tyler is the Three Village Historical Society historian.

form one united board to advocate for the lake. Newly-elected county Legislator Leslie Kennedy (RNesconset) said the goal was to compile data that will help secure grant money, channel stormwater runoff away from the lake and garner legislative support for the lake. “Years ago, this was a resort,” she said. “There were tons of beachfronts, there were cabins and cabanas. This is something we all could be proud of — it could be a site where people recreate.” Kennedy said she hoped a united front could attract more foot traffic and fishing to the lake. She stood along the waters on Tuesday morning and said she was anxious to see the kinds of results the Stony Brook students help to find. “I am dying to know what the pH levels are at the bottom of the lake,” she said. Lawmakers and Lake Ronkonkoma advocates said one of the biggest hurdles in the way of cleaner waters rested in the population of Canada geese gaggling around the area. As more geese make their way in and around the lake, the nitrogen in their waste pollutes the water. Volunteers with the Lake Ronkonkoma civic had to sweep the length of the dock Tuesday morning, as Pfeiffer prepared for the students, in order to rid it of geese excrement. “To help the lake, relocating or terminating some of the geese might not be a bad idea,” Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) said. The students could be funneling data to the different municipalities overseeing the lake by the end of the summer. “You want a report that will spell out how to improve the clarity of this water,” Romaine said. “The students are welcome back anytime.”

Patriots drop to 4-2 Girls’ lacrosse

Middle Country . . . . 17 Ward Melville . . . . . . 12 By Desirée KeeGAn

The Ward Melville girls’ lacrosse team gave undefeated Middle Country a run for its money, leading 4-1 early in the first, but ultimately fell to the Mad Dogs, 17-12. In a dogfight between two of the top teams in Division I Monday, visiting Ward Melville dominated the beginning of the first half, edging ahead to a 4-1 lead, but the Middle Country girls’ lacrosse team found its groove and bounced back to prove why it’s undefeated. With the loss, the Patriots fell to 4-2, while its opponents remain in sole possession of first place at 6-0 in Division I. But the Mad Dogs’ 17-12 comeback win brought their record to 6-0 to remain in sole possession of first place, while the Patriots dropped to 4-1. “We have a big week ahead of us so to get one out of the way is a good feeling,” Middle Country head coach Lindsay Dolson said. “We kept our calm, we knew that we could score. We had a bunch of pipes in the first couple of minutes so that took a little wind out of our sails, but they did a great job coming back.” After Ward Melville jumped out to a 3-0 lead, Middle Country senior midfielder and attack Nikki Ortega scored off a foul

for the team’s first point with 15:21 left in the first half. The Patriots tacked on another goal before Ortega’s younger sister, Jamie, a sophomore midfielder, netted back-toback goals to pull within one, 4-3. “We knew that we were down but we always tell each other not to freak out, to talk to each other,” Jamie Ortega said. “I was frustrated because I knew we were the better team, so us [being] down got me motivated.” The teams traded goals and after being behind, 5-4, Middle Country tied it up 5-5 LACROSSE continued on page A12

ObiTuaries Mitchell Pollack

Dr. Mitchell Coleman Pollack, former director of the Emergency Department of John T. Mather Memorial Hospital for 29 years, died on March 13 after a 15-month battle with cancer. He was 62. Pollack was appointed director of the Emergency Department at Mather Hospital in January 1985. He was one of the first emergency medicine-trained and board-certified physicians in the United States in the early 1980s and was a Fellow of the American College of Emergency Physicians. He completed training in emergency medicine at UCLA Center for the Health Sciences in Los Angeles, Calif.,

in 1980. Prior to residency, he attended New York Medical College, in Valhalla, graduating in 1977. He graduated from Cornell University in 1974 with a degree in mathematics and graduated from North High School in Valley Stream in 1970. Pollack was a pioneer in his field. At Mather, he developed protocols and clinical pathways for critically ill patients, and he was the volunteer medical director of numerous ambulance corps on Long Island. In 1989, he was a founding member and chairman of the Regional Emergency Medical Advisory Committee for Suffolk County EMS. Starting in June 1995, he was an original member of the New York State Emergency Medical Advisory Committee. In July 1996, he founded and chaired the Mather Hospital Emergency Medical Services Quality Improvement Committee. Pollack assisted in the de-

sign of a new, 30-bed emergency pavilion at Mather, which opened in December 1991. In 1992, he developed the first chest pain emergency room on Long Island at Mather and instituted the fast-track area of the department. In the same year, he introduced physician assistant and nurse practitioner staffing to the department. Pollack was a highly respected physician who routinely conducted training courses for doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, paramedics and emergency medical technicians. He was well liked, approachable and had a dry sense of humor. He epitomized the “renaissance man.” He loved cooking, art, jazz, the Islanders and the Jets. Pollack’s wife, Marilyn Temkin, is an internist and geriatrician. They have two daughters, Dr. Stephanie Pollack, 28, and Ilana Pollack, 23. Stephanie is a first-year resident in Emergency Medicine at North Shore University Hos-

pital in Manhasset. Ilana will begin a doctorate program in the fall in biomedical research at The Rockefeller University in Manhattan. Pollack is the son of the late Phyllis and Samuel Pollack of Valley Stream. He is also survived by his in-laws, Max and Sara Temkin, of Douglaston.

Jerry Spiliotis

Jerry Spiliotis, a businessman and entrepreneur who helped the Port Jefferson Country Club rise to the elite status it is today, died on March 18. He was 76. Walter Hurney, a longtime friend of Spiliotis, described the late North Shore native as

someone who had a true eye for hospitality. “He was always upbeat and smiling,” he said. “Jerry was always willing to help anyone in any way that he could.” He owned and worked out of various eateries across the North Shore, including the Charcoal House Restaurant and Bar in Setauket, where Hurney said everybody knew his name because of his uppity attitude. He also helped resurrect the Port Jefferson Country Club, where he purposely worked on his golf game solely to relate to his patrons and become closer with the product he was working to deliver. Margot Garant, mayor of Port Jefferson, once worked under Spiliotis at the country club as a dishwasher. “He was a great guy. He never stopped working right alongside you,” she said. “Jerry was a man for all seasons. He loved what he did, but most of all, he loved all people.”

with 4:39 left until the halftime break. With the offensive sides strong on both ends of the field, the two teams traded another goal apiece to bring the score to 6-6 at the end of the first, and continued to

trade goals until the game was tied 9-9. From there, the Mad Dogs raced ahead to a 14-9 lead before Ward Melville senior attack Alex Vignona scored from 10 yards out, and followed her showing with an assist as she passed the ball to sophomore attack Kaitlin Thornton, who scored overhead in front of the net to close the gap to 14-11.

This is back-to-back titles for the freshman team that had a dominant lineup led by Matthew Crasa, who was named the most valuable player of the playoffs, Jamie Ortega netted one next, taking the ball all the way up the field and, from the right side, crossing the ball in front of the net and into the left corner with 4:08 remaining in the game. Middle Country scored again, and Ward Melville sophomore midfielder Madison Hobbes scored her team’s final point before Nikki Ortega passed the ball to eighth-grade defender Sophie Alois off a shooting space foul with 16 seconds on the clock, for the final goal of the game. “We knew this was our time, this was our game and we had to step it up, and that’s what we did,” Middle Country junior defender Jordynn Aiello said. “I knew stepping on this field today we were going to come out with this win no matter what. One thing I love about my team is that we stay calm under pressure — we don’t break.” While the team ran into trouble winning possession off the draw and the defense struggled with the slides, defenders, like Aiello, forced some crucial turnovers. Vignona, Thornton, Hobbes, senior attack Samantha Nemirov and junior attack Holly Regan scored two goals apiece for the Patriots, while sophomore midfielder Hannah Hobbes and senior midfielder Cat Smith rounded out the scoring with a goal each. “I knew that they were going to give us a hard game,” Jamie Ortega said of

and sniper Jason Ruszkowski. The team was led by head coach Mark Devlin, and assistant coaches Frank Catalina, Bobby Gazura and George Rainer.

Using alternative energy at our local school districts, through methods like installing solar panels, can save taxpayers money.

EDITORIAL

Making schools brighter From unfunded mandates to grounds maintenance, school districts are burdened with many costs, but high energy bills don’t have to be one of them. State Sen. Carl Marcellino (r-Syosset) recently introduced legislation that would strengthen the state’s support of alternative energy systems in school districts. All types of alternative energy systems — whether solar, wind and/or geothermal — would be eligible for state building aid. The legislation would also remove a requirement that has the systems meet an 18-year payback window in order to receive aid. These changes make sense, as they’ll empower school districts to go green while also saving taxpayers money. A few school districts on the North Shore have discussed installing solar panels on their building roofs, while two — Miller Place and Three Village — are moving forward with plans to install the panels. in Miller Place, the panels are expected to save the district more than half its utility budget. in Three Village, by the time the project is paid off, the district could be saving hundreds of thousands of dollars. While we encourage other school districts to investigate how alternative energy systems could help their districts reduce costs, we also hope they’ll continue searching for ways to reduce their energy consumption. replacing an energy source with a clean alternative is a step in the right direction, but it doesn’t do anything to address a greater energy consumption problem that pervades our communities, including in our schools.

Protecting our true veterans To The ediTor: Last year, members of the American Legion Post 694 approached me with the idea of enacting a Suffolk County law to protect the honor of our decorated veterans; mirroring the federal Stolen Valor Act.

Seeking a slogan for Hillary 2016

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

hat Hillary Clinton needs is a slogan. Now that she’s declared that she is, indeed, running for president, she needs to let the world know what she’s all about. The problem is she’s spent the last quarter of a century in the public eye. How can someone who lost the presidential primary in 2008, whose hus-

band’s peccadilloes provided endless fodder for the latenight TV hosts and whose every move, comment or speech let us know who she is and what she’s all about? I have a few suggestions: • “Campaign Clinton IV”: The first two were about Bill, the third one was a dress rehearsal and the fourth time is the real thing. • “She’s nicer than you think”: That’s not hard to imagine. She doesn’t exactly come across as warm, fuzzy and relatable. She has the opposite public persona of her husband, whose charm and hospitality play so well on TV. • “25 years in the making”: A woman who has written two autobiographies and who was the first lady for eight years may finally make it out of the primaries. • “Long day’s journey into the White House”: Borrowing from Eugene O’Neill, Clinton has gone through many dra-

mas, subplots and struggles on her way to running for the most important job in the land. • “About Time”: Did you see that charming movie with this title with Rachel McAdams? This slogan could suggest it’s about time a woman became president. Then again, maybe if, like the movie, she could travel back in time, she’d change a few things. • “Let the first family back in”: The Democrats seem to love her these days. Why not suggest that she and her biggest fan, largest supporter and No. 1 asset and liability, return to the White House together? • “We’ll be back”: I know Arnold Schwarzenegger is a Republican, but wouldn’t it be cool if he introduced her campaign in his Austrian Terminator accent? (Or, perhaps, borrowing from “Jaws II”: “Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the White House again.”) • “Interns need not apply”: OK, that’s a cheap shot.

• “The ultimate battle of the sexes”: Let’s see who runs the country better, a wife or her husband? We’ve had fathers and sons — the Adamses and the Bushes — and the Roosevelt cousins. How about we try a married couple? • “Time for new revelations”: Every so often, it seems as if there’s a new revelation about the Clintons. Think about how many more revelations from staff members, former cooks and the U.S. Secret Service we might have if the Clintons once again occupy the White House? • “The publishing business needs this”: Book publishing and publishing in general don’t seem to be as profitable as in the past. Bookstores are closing and small publishers are struggling to keep up with the endless space in the Internet. Surely a Clinton campaign and, possibly, a presidency would give new life to an industry that desperately needs a few more blockbuster political

But who would dare argue with a grandma?

books before it finds the next Charles Dickens? • “It’s time to watch latenight TV again”: “Saturday Night Live” and late-night talk show hosts must be cheering the possibility. They don’t even need to create new characters or find people who can look and act like the Clintons. • “Grandma knows best”: Forget about her role as first lady, senator or secretary of state, who would dare argue with a grandma? Let battle commence but it’s going to be a long, drawn-out affair. There are still 572 days to go, whatever the slogan.

Oh happy day, spring is here to stay

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

ho would have believed it? After the grueling winter we have all lived through, it is spring — finally, certainly, surely, unarguably spring. The relief, the excitement, the miracle of this annual rebirth is here. So I am suggesting that we live in the moment, at least

for a few moments, and plan to enjoy our surroundings. How do we celebrate the season? Here are some of my suggestions. For starters, go outside and breathe deep breaths that won’t freeze your windpipes. Unless you are in the middle of traffic, you can smell the fresh earth. Look up at the limbs of the trees. There are beautiful, symmetrical buds readying themselves to burst into bloom. Look under tucked away places, like the eves of your house. You might see birds building a nest to receive and shelter their young. Listen to those birds singing. They are bustling with activity as they serenade those who listen. Note the forsythia contributing bright yellow to the edges of driveways and roads, bolstered by smiling daffodils at ground level. The

usual cast of characters is also pushing its way into our field of vision: crocus, hyacinths and any number of weeds that aren’t paid to blossom but do so to join the riot of color. The weather this weekend sounds pretty nice, so get out those garden tools, but leave time to wander over to a beach and enjoy the views of calm water and the early distant sailboats. Bring The New York Times or your laptop and have breakfast on the sand Sunday morning. Get on your bike, take a long walk through the ’hood and chat with neighbors you haven’t seen in months. No, they weren’t away for the winter, they were just hibernating in their homes. If you wish, write and tell us what your particular rituals are for welcoming the season. In the meantime, let’s celebrate: Oh, Happy Spring!
