Ward Melville High School students and staff continued their mission of creating a culture filled with compassion, acceptance and awareness as they celebrated Patriot PRIDE Day — denoting peace, respect, integrity, dependability, encouragement — this month. This year’s program centered on the words and story of Rohan Murphy, an inspirational speaker who promotes the message of living a “no excuses” life. Murphy, who had lost his legs at birth, spoke about how he worked to overcome life’s obstacles and physical challenges

in order to achieve his personal standards for success. He told the students how he pushed himself to achieve both academically and athletically – as he went on to attend and become a Division I college wrestler at Penn State University. To continue the message of the day, several school clubs organized informational booths in the commons area. These included creating a chain of kindness, writing prideful messages on a tree of kindness and seeking inspirational messages from the leaves of a paper tree. — Phil corSo

Highway superintendent makes strides in Setauket By Phil corSo

December is approaching, but things are heating up on the streets of Setauket. Brookhaven became the first municipality across Long Island to use a product known as warm mix asphalt during repaving projects, and with three paving seasons already under his belt, Brookhaven Highway Superintendent Dan Losquadro (R) said its implementation could not be smoother — literally. “As the third largest Highway Department in all of New

York state I felt it was important for Brookhaven to be both an innovator and a leader in introducing new technologies,” he said in a statement. “As we enter the latter part of the paving season, warm mix asphalt allows us to achieve proper compaction, especially during night work in cooler temperatures. I want to show other departments that not only is this product viable, it’s actually preferable in many instances.” Warm mix asphalt production uses temperatures 30 to HIGHWaY continued on page a10

Thanksgiving potluck set in Setauket Three Village’s Maryann Butkevich of college 101 on Route 25A is opening her doors on Thanksgiving. While sitting in the waiting room at the doctor, she picked up an article and read what she called a surprising statistic: the average Thanksgiving dinner costs a family about $250 and one in seven people spend Thanksgiving alone. That was when she started thinking. “well I decided to change these statistics this year, at least here in Setauket,” she said. “College 101, nay the Butkevich family, will open its doors at 4 p.m. on Thanksgiving for a community Thanks-

Volunteers have a heart Rotary’s work, 40 years strong, adds decades to girl’s life BY ELANA GLOWATZ

A 4-year-old girl from Kosovo is recovering after a lifesaving heart operation on Long Island, thanks to the work of local volunteers. It took a village to support Uerda Zena. Rotary groups throughout Suffolk lent a hand to the girl and her mother, Barbara, through the Gift of Life program, which works to provide such stateside heart procedures to children from around the globe. Uerda’s Nov. 4 surgery to repair a hole in her heart the size of a nickel was a milestone effort that celebrated the Rotary program’s 40th anniversary. The atrial septal defect closure performed on Uerda at St. Francis Hospital in Roslyn will add 60 or more years to the little girl’s life, Port Jefferson Rotary member Debbie Engelhardt explained, but the surgery was not available in her home nation. Engelhardt, who is also the director of the Comsewogue Public Library, said more than 19,000 children from dozens of countries have received lifesaving surgeries since the Gift of Life program was born in Suffolk County four decades ago and expanded through Rotary International. Rotary groups in the county are still going strong with Gift of Life, which is doubling up its efforts by providing doctors and medical staff in other countries with equipment and training to perform the heart procedures themselves. “It’s a unique, renowned and respected Rotary-run program,” Engelhardt said. Dr. Sean Levchuck, the pediatric cardiologist who performed the life-saving procedure on Uerda at St. Francis, described it as minimally invasive. To close the nickel-sized hole, he fed a catheter “the size of a coffee stirrer” into a vein in her leg and up to her heart, where the catheter deployed a device that, once

placed in the hole, expanded to plug it. The cardiologist had to position the device properly while Uerda’s heart was still beating, mostly using ultrasound imaging to guide him. The doctor said the procedure took between 45 minutes to an hour and required a team of nurses, an anesthesiologist and techs to assist with the imaging. The hospital donated the use of its facility and staff for the procedure. Levchuck does about 15 of those procedures a year for Gift of Life, he said, with a fair number of the child recipients coming from Eastern European countries that were formerly part of the Soviet Union. He also sees kids from places like Haiti and Jamaica. Just like in those other nations, the procedure to repair a hole in a child’s heart is not available in Kosovo, Levchuck said, because the hospitals don’t have the resources to train their staffs to do it. And the kids who are born with those defects are more prone to pneumonia or respiratory infections, which could also be difficult to treat in a developing nation. “Problems in this country that are seemingly innocent take a whole new look” in places like Kosovo, the doctor said. But he is willing to help: “Keep ‘em coming. … It’s easy to donate time.” In Uerda’s case, plenty of Long Islanders donated their time, with many people pitching in to make the girl’s medical procedure a reality. Sayville Rotarian Joe DeVincent wrote letters to get the girl a visa, and she and her mother are staying with a host family in Northport while here. DeVincent has also provided transportation to the Kosovan mother and daughter. The endeavor to save Uerda had an additional element of kids helping other kids — students at St. Anthony’s High

Top, Uerda Zena colors before her procedure last week. Bottom, the medical team, including Dr. Levchuck second from right, surrounds mom Barbara Zena.

School in South Huntington, one of whom is Levchuck’s son, raised funds to bring the girl to the United States from her home in the Kosovan capital, Pristina, where her mother works at a bakery and her father at a public works plant. “They’re a fi ne group of students over there that championed a cause,” the doctor said about the St. Anthony’s kids. “When you see something like that, you really get a nice warm feeling about the future.” Uerda will be staying stateside for a little while longer, and Rotarians are trying to show her a good time. She has already gone on a play date to Chuck E. Cheese and visited a children’s museum, DeVincent said, and this weekend she will go into New York City with her mother and some native Long Islanders to visit Times Square and Rockefeller Center. “Uerda really enjoys being with her mother,” DeVincent said. And she has more energy to do these things than before. “Her heart’s working better, her circulation’s better,” the Rotarian said. “The kid generally feels better than she has in her whole life. So this is a very

happy story.” Uerda will also appear at a Taste of Smithtown, an event in St. James on Nov. 17, where there will be food from restaurants along the North Shore. The 10th annual event will run from 6 to 9 p.m. at Mercedes-Benz of Smithtown on Middle Country Road and will benefit the Gift of Life program, along with the Smithtown Emergency Food Pantry and the Smithtown Children’s Foundation. The plan is for the Zenas to head home on Nov. 22, to be reunited with Uerda’s father and her 18-month-old brother. “Her mother is in touch with her family in Europe through her cell phone and … Uerda has spoken to her brother over the cell phone,” DeVincent said. “She’s actually very maternal toward her younger brother.” It is a happy ending for both the Kosovo family and Suffolk County Rotarians. “When you’re doing something like this with an adorable 4-year-old child, it brings you tremendous satisfaction,” DeVincent said. “This is the best way to spread happiness, certainly for these children and their parents but also for yourself. Nothing that I do or have done in my life has brought me as much joy.”

PERSPECTIVES

Long Islanders have saving crisis: Reclaim NY By Brandon Muir

Long Island is a place that should be synonymous with thriving families, beaches, and the best New York has to offer. However, as more people and businesses struggle to stay here, it has become, unfortunately, just as associated with high taxes, a stagnant economy, debt, and public corruption. It’s no mystery to Long Islanders that the region has struggled. They read the headlines about population decline, while they watch their neighbors move south. As they work to make ends meet, they may not realize they are fighting an uphill battle against a deep and widespread affordability crisis that has consequences for virtually every household. Long Islanders are paying the price for high taxation, endless regulation, and corruption that drive the cost of government sky-high. A new study by Reclaim New York provides the most alarming evidence yet that recent graduates, middle-class families, and even people making hundreds of thousands of dollars a year are struggling to achieve financial stability and save for the future.

TBR

The analysis has computed Long Islanders’ total tax burden, including income, sales, excise, and property taxes, together with basic living expenses — what you have to pay just to wake up every morning on Long Island. The results show that wherever you live, across Nassau and Suffolk Counties, the affordability crisis follows. For instance, the median family of four living in Huntington school district earns over $118,000 annually. Even by New York standards, that should make for a comfortable living. But after government and basic expenses take a bite out of their wallet, they are left with four percent of their income. Across the Island, in Port Jefferson, the situation is similar, yet somehow worse. A family earning the median income there goes into the red, losing $2,855 per year. That is before they pay off debts, save for college or retirement, and cover additional expenses. Even if they cut back on basics, they are not close to building a future. Analysis of a range of other cases, across regions and income spectrums, reveals more trends. Like why the boomerang effect is so prominent on Long Island. Many young people are barely in the

black, and too frequently in the red, if living on their own. A recent college graduate in Lake Ronkonkoma (Sachem School District), fortunate enough to get a job in his area of study, making $48,707 annually, can only save two percent of that, or $955. That’s before any student loan payments. It’s going to be hard to enjoy a night out too often, let alone buy a house or get married. For the people across all these examples, New York costs 90 percent or more of their income. When tax policies are preventing earners high and low from building financial stability, they’re no longer pro-

media

gressive, but simply oppressive. This is the iceberg that is sinking Long Island. If people can’t save, they will never be on sound financial footing, especially as they get older. An affordability and savings crisis this deep requires citizens to get informed and engaged. The key to solving it will not be figuring out better policies on paper, but changing an environment that has fostered failed policies for too long. Brandon Muir is executive director for Reclaim New York, a non-partisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing a state-wide, grassroots conversation about the future of New York, its economy, and its people.

PEOPLE Statesman reunion 30 years later

Homecoming weekend at Stony Brook University is an opportunity for alumni to reconnect with Stony Brook. Wolfstock 2015 included a reunion of the official campus newspaper, Statesman. Former student editors who were part of Statesman over the course of several decades met for breakfast in the newspaper office on campus. Later, editors from the 1980s met for dinner at Mario’s, one of the few area restaurants remaining after 30 years.

Editors Barry Wenig, Andrea Rosenthal, Tim Dederick, Cary Sun, Elizabeth Wasserman, George Mann, Mitch Horowitz and Alan Golnick are together again.

Although they did not earn the title of World Series champions, the New York Mets were the recipients of an overwhelming amount of support from students and staff throughout the Three Village Central School District community as they competed in Major League Baseball’s highest level of competition. As part of a fundraiser organized by Minnesauke Elementary School student Mia Butkevich and her brother, Jake, who attends P.J. Gelinas Jr. High School, the town and many schools displayed large orange and blue ribbons in support of hometown Met Steven Matz. Donations from the purchased ribbons went to support Strike Out Cancer Foundation. Nassakeag Elementary School students and staff were repeatedly seen wearing their favorite Mets apparel throughout the series and many classes created letters, signs and posters for Matz, a graduate of the school.

120 degrees Fahrenheit lower than the traditional hot mix asphalt used in paving projects. The Highway Department said that greater temperature differences between asphalt mixes and the outside temperature makes for faster cooling for the mixes, which affects durability. With warm mix asphalt’s slower cooling time, it is most effective when used in lower temperatures, typically at night, Losquadro said. The Highway Department entered into a new contract last year, which included new bid specifications calling for the technology, which Losquadro said provided more accountability and streamlined the paving process. The technology has been used for more than a decade across the country, but did not hit the pavements of Suffolk County until last week in Setauket. “Since it was first demonstrated in the US in 1996, warm mix asphalt has sparked the interest of transportation agencies and the private sector,” said Tom Harman, director of the Federal Highway Administration Center for Accelerating Innovation. “Warm mix asphalt technologies allow a reduction in asphalt production, flexibility when it comes to the temperatures needed for applying it and reduced production fuel consumption and emissions.” It also extends the paving season and enables the use of higher recycled products, Harman said. In 2014, a third of all asphalt produced in the U.S. was warm mix asphalt, and “we expect use of the material to continue to grow in use.”

Over a two-night span last week, the department traveled the streets of Hulse Road to Comsewogue Road, and Comsewogue Road from the train tracks to Sheep Pasture Road to Old Town Road, Losquadro said. By the end of the week, Losquadro said the streets of Setauket saw new life. The highway superintendent said it delivered a handful of benefits to the town right off the bat, including better working conditions for air quality and also reducing fuel emissions, fumes and odors. “We achieved a very uniform surface with almost no roller marks or imperfections,” he said. “I wanted to pick the right time to test this out and have that proof of concept to use it in cooler temperatures. Now having done that, I see no reason why this can’t become our new standard for Brookhaven. I see a lot of benefits to us, both environmentally and from a work perspective.” The cost, Losquadro said, is fairly minimal in difference from typical hot mix asphalt usage. The Setauket job saw a roughly 88-cent difference per ton of asphalt used, which amounted to about $4,400 more than what hot mix asphalt would have achieved. “That’s pretty minimal in the grand scheme of the size of the jobs we’re talking about here,” Losquadro said. “The cost should be at least offset by the reduction in fuel that the manufacturer is going to save by not having to heat the material up as much.” And with his proof of concept, Losquadro said he would be bringing his warm mix story to future meetings of various county highway departments with hopes of spreading the success.

Brookhaven Highway Superintendent Dan Losquadro prides himself in being a hands-on elected official and is often seen out on the job site alongside department workers. In regards to the latest paving project in Setauket, Losquadro said he was on-site to see the implementation of warm mix asphalt for the first time in Brookhaven — and on Long Island.

OPINION

Parents and teachers protest the Common Core learning standards at a rally held in 2013.

EdiTOriAL

Former county Legislator Vivian Viloria-Fisher voices her opinion at The General Theory of Walkability forum.

Let the people speak on Common Core

AiMhighNY, the state’s survey for receiving public feedback on the Common Core Learning Standards, seems to be coming up short. Board of education members from huntington Union Free School district expressed frustration with the review system, which was felt across the North Shore this week, and said the survey did not give parents and educators enough space or time to voice their Common Core concerns. Trustees said the review is specific and tedious, and that the section to submit opinions is “restrictive.” Upon exploring the site, many of those claims don’t seem far-fetched. There are more than 24 subsections of the review. At one point, the continual division of a topic into a smaller topic seems endless, and a user may need to go through more than five sections before they can write in their own comments. if a participant wanted to fill out the entire assessment, it would be no small feat — and that’s if time is on your side. But that is not the case for AiMhighNY. The survey, which opened in October, ends in about two weeks. Schools have even said they are having multiple teachers work on one survey just to submit something. With the amount of protesting against Common Core we’ve seen throughout New York State over the last few years, should there even be a deadline? Perhaps like rolling admissions in college, rolling submissions in Common Core may work. Of course reviews need to be evaluated, but with the current public opinion of Common Core, it may be a good idea to continually check parents’ and educators’ suggestions and not limit their time to a four-week period.

Sidewalk talk TO ThE EdiTOr: Your Oct. 29 article regarding a community discussion about the need for sidewalks (“Three Villagers talk sidewalks”) struck many chords as i read it. The sidewalk issue ranges from “not in my front yard” to “a nobrainer”. The overriding issue of pedestrian safety appears to trump aesthetics — at least at this point. Yesterday morning i was driving to work at 6:30 a.m. i was on Sycamore Circle and almost hit a young lady — could tell from the sprint in her stride — out for a run. Clad in a dark sweatshirt,

Drug abuse summit TO ThE EdiTOr: readers of the Times Beacon record Newspapers should be made aware of a free public community summit to discuss the rise of drug abuse on Long island.

it was only the light-grayish logo on the front that alerted me to her presence in sufficient time for me to swerve to the left as she strode past two parked cars on my right. it was around this time of year on an evening in 1984 that one of our kids and a bunch of ninthgraders were having a party at our home. As some of them arrived they mentioned what looked like an accident in the neighborhood. We learned later that the mother of one of their classmates had been hit by a car while walking. She later died. To this day there is seldom a time that i don’t drive at dusk or early in the morning on Sycamore

Your newspaper provides many valuable public services. its role in raising public awareness is recognized and appreciated. Perhaps this letter could serve as a call to attention to the need for reflective gear — to this day there are still many who ignore this “protective helmet” for pedestrians —and to the many meanings of driving defensively.

Do you want to know a secret?

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

P

ssst! Hey, do you want to know a secret? I’ve got a great one. It’s called … Flodgy Dodgy. Shhh! Don’t say it too loudly yet. I’m not supposed to tell anyone, but you’re a good friend. Well, no, I don’t technically know you yet, but you look like you could be a good friend. All friends start

out as strangers, right? Anyway, what is Flodgy Dodgy? It’s a made-for-TV product. Through viral marketing, we plan to put this product front and center, sharing it with the people who watch football every Sunday and with those addicted to highbrow features. Flodgy Dodgy makes you feel good. It’s this incredible combination of things from column A, things from column B and things from column C. Each of these columns was based on years of scientific research. Well, it wasn’t actually conducted by scientists. We used these focus groups but, hey, what’s the difference? We don’t need initials. We pulled some of them directly off the Internet, so it has to be true. We have an app, too. You can put it on your iPhone or your Samsung or whatever you’re supposed to silence before watching a movie. So, before I get to the product,

I want to let you know that the packaging of Flodgy Dodgy is not only recyclable, it’s wearable. You can take the packaging, peel off the simple sticker and, voilà, you have stickers you can put all over your notebooks and your office door. You can even put them over some of the holes in your fashionably torn jeans. Can’t you see it? Popular kids in middle school sit down at their desks, put down their binders and there, in neon colors so bright people will practically need sunglasses to look at them, will be the name Flodgy Dodgy. When the teacher comes over and asks what it is, the kids can explain that it’s saving the environment because it doesn’t produce any waste. Well, technically, it does produce some waste, because the part you peel comes off in your hands and then you have to throw it out somewhere, but that’s not nearly as bad as the side effects from all those drugs advertised on TV.

But, wait, I haven’t gotten to the best part and, for this, we have Donald Trump to thank. He’s such an inspiration. You see, this guy doesn’t seem willing to get along with anyone in either party and he’s so far from the common man that he might as well be living on Mount Olympus, but, hey, that doesn’t matter. He’s on TV and he plays well on the small screen. He could be the first made-for-TV president who has the ability to say what we’re thinking. If we have no thoughts, he would convince us what we should be thinking because he’s The Man. I digress. Our idea — and you’ll love this — is that we’re starting a Flodgy Dodgy network. We’re going to go out with cameras and find the people with the most Flodgy Dodgy stickers all over them and we’re going to give them 10 seconds to do a Flodgy Dodgy dance. That’s right, TV. Ahhh! Can’t you picture it? And we’re going to

I’m not supposed to tell anyone, but you’re a good friend. let people link through the TV to all their social networks, so their friends and their jealous enemies will be able to watch them do their thing in full Flodgy Dodgy outfits. Oh, sorry, my time’s up. I didn’t get to the product itself, but who cares? It’s not about the stuff inside, it’s about everything else and, when it comes to everything else, Flodgy Dodgy is No. 1. Now, remember, we don’t want you to tell anyone but your 20 or 50 best friends. OK? Daniel Dunaief’s recent book, “The Other Parent,” may be purchased online from www.tbrnewsmedia.com/ebooks.

The goal of terrorists is terror

ore police cars lined the front of Lincoln Center Plaza on Monday than I have seen anywhere else on an otherwise uneventful night in New York City, and the police officers were standing shoulder to shoulder on the sidewalk. It was three days after the horrific attack on civilians in Paris by the ISIS group, according to their own admission. More than 130 people in the French capital, who were

doing little more than enjoying the beginning of a weekend at restaurants, a concert hall and a soccer stadium, were killed by at least eight suicide jihadists, and that number could still double if those hospitalized should die. Most of the victims were gathered to hear a rock band from California known for its wit, but now with the unfortunate name of Eagles of Death Metal, and a hostage scene ensued after gunmen burst into the Bataclan performance hall and fired into the crowd. “Carnage,” posted one concertgoer on Facebook, according to The New York Times. So it was a welcome sight for our little group to see the extensive police presence as we walked toward the entrance to the Metropolitan Opera House and our evening performance of Verdi’s “Rigoletto.” The police were relaxed, and when we chatted with them, they told us that they were expecting a demonstration. They said that was what brought them. I asked several officers if they had ever been to an opera, and they laughed and said “no;”

some offered that they would like to see one. One of our group asked if they were on overtime. They said that they were not, that they had just come on duty. We told them that regardless of the reason, we were glad to see them and hoped they would one day enjoy an opera. The jihadists, through their despicable acts, have succeeded in alarming the world, even as messages have poured forth from all corners of the globe asserting solidarity with France. In one such instance, the Metropolitan Opera orchestra, under the baton of Placido Domingo, played the French national anthem, the Marseillaise, before the matinee this past Saturday. The words to the rousing song had been inserted into each program so the spectators could sing along, and they did with feeling. Other performances, sporting events and places where crowds gathered offered such support to France from all quarters throughout the weekend. And once Monday morning dawned, the French

authorities were grimly examining the extent of the destruction: physical, emotional, psychological, and economic. Those costs are not just for France, but are felt worldwide. Police and military presences have been increased everywhere crowds assemble to reassure citizens they are protected. Tourists are not so quick to roam the globe or even to get on airplanes. Families are afraid for their distant members. Performers are reluctant to perform for crowds. Parents and educators are deeply concerned about how to explain these events to children. And triggered by profound anger and fear, more death reigns down on militants in Syria and Iraq from governments pressed to retaliate, creating more militants who will be willing to die to avenge their brethren killed in those attacks. Killing begets more killing. The world remains a dangerous place, as I suppose it has always been.
