New York State’s crusade against childhood sexual abuse BY DONNA DEEDY DONNA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Decades-old records show that North Shore children have fallen prey to sexual predators, whether it’s been while in the Boy Scouts or church groups or perhaps even in a family setting. But new laws, combined with education, are shifting the social paradigm, and the experts say that people need to take a more active position to prevent childhood sexual abuse. Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) signed the Child Victims Act in January, which takes effect in June. The law essentially aims to institute more sensitivity toward victims, while holding perpetrators accountable. It raises the statute of limitations for victims from 18 to 23 years of age, so victims can file criminal charges in adulthood. For civil charges, victims have until the age of 55 to file charges against the offender. Steven Forrester and Annie Costello are with The New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, an organization that is playing a leading role toward change. Forrester, a former prosecutor with 28 years of experience addressing child abuse, successfully lobbied for better laws for the last four years, while
Costello has been part of a new evidence-based program, funded by the National Institutes of Health that trains and educates professionals as well as the general public on how to prevent child sexual abuse. “It’s everyone’s responsibility — adults, organizations, parents, children,” said Costello. “Parents need to teach children how to keep their bodies safe.” Assaults thrive in a culture of secrecy, she said, and when adults aren’t talking about it at home it’s harder to prevent. In order to stop child sexual abuse in the future that veil of secrecy needs to be removed. This often requires that adults overcome their own anxieties about the topic. Access and opportunity, two factors that underlie abuse scenarios One in five people, by the time they’re 18 years old, become victims of childhood sexual assault, according to Costello and her organization. Rather than strangers, the society finds that 90 percent of the time the perpetrators are people a child knows and trusts. “It can be difficult to believe that a beloved uncle, favorite coach, or respected clergy member could abuse a child,” Forrester

said. “Perpetrators can be very charming, manipulative and believable.” Offenses typically occur in scenarios where adults are entrusted with the care of children without the supervision of parents. Whether its music lessons, Scouting groups, sports clubs or schools or churches, parents need to ask up
front to review the organizations policies and practices. Every organization, Costello said, should have information available on both its background screening process for its volunteers or workers and its policies for handling abuse. Otherwise, the society has identified red CONTINUED ON A6

Nonprofit aids vets and their pets BY DONNA DEEDY DONNA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Suffolk County Legislator Susan Berland (D-Dix Hills) coordinated free veterinarian care for veterans’ pets with Paws of War, a nonprofit organization in Nesconset that supports both ends of the leash through a variety of animal programs for veterans. The three-hour event was held April 27 in a mobile clinic parked behind the legislator’s Commack office where more than 25 animals received care — including a blind poodle named Ebony. “As the chairwoman of the Legislature’s Veterans Committee, I have seen first-hand the amazing work Paws of War does for our veterans, which is why I was proud to host their clinic at my district office,” Berland said. “It is well known that having an animal can be a vital tool in helping veterans combat the emotional effects of war.” Ted Taranowicz, a Navy veteran from the Vietnam era, along with his wife of 39 years Elizabeth, brought their black lab Rocco to the clinic. Taranowicz, a Port Jefferson resident, was diagnosed with throat cancer in January and is still recovering from the last of his 35
radiation and five chemotherapy treatments. He learned about the Vets2Vets program through the local VA hospital and was grateful for the service. He was one of 15 Suffolk County veterans helped by the program. Like the other animals seen, Rocco and Ebony received basic veterinary care that included a wellness check, grooming, vaccinations, microchipping, flea/tick protection and pet supplies. Dori Scofield, co-founder of the Paws of War, said the nonprofit runs entirely on donations. “We were able to do this purely because of people’s generosity,” Scofield said. She added that Petco recently donated $15,000 to help with the mobile clinic. The charity, though, is mostly funded by small donors and local groups that raise money for its cause. “The new Vets2Vets program is providing an amazing service for our veterans who may be unable to provide the necessary care for their animal,” Berland said. “I want to thank Paws of War for everything they do to support our veterans, they are truly an asset to our county.” For more information about Paws of War, visit its website at www.pawsofwar.org.

Film Screening of the Sequel
Deputy mayor steps down BY DONNA DEEDY DONNA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Northport trustee Tom Kehoe has stepped down from his appointed position as deputy mayor of Northport but will remain in his elected position of trustee. Kehoe began construction on his Northport home, he said, before receiving proper permits. In consultation with the mayor, it was decided to be the best option, since the situation was too much of a distraction. Kehoe’s home has been boarded up and vacant since it burned down in May 2017. After the town granted permission to demolish the structure, which was in December 2018, Kehoe said that he poured a new foundation in January and started framing the house in March. “Shame on me,” Kehoe said. “I’m taking responsibility, I’m taking my medicine.” He is waiting now for the proper authorizations before continuing with the work, he said, and his paperwork has been filed with the building department. Kehoe attributes the delay in authorizing the demolition of his home to a conflict

Kehoe has served as a Northport trustee since 2006 and was most recently re-elected in 2018. “I have two years and 11 months to fulfill my term,” Kehoe said. He said that he expects to continue to serve village residents. Kehoe said that he will need to meet with the zoning board to address issues related to removing a side entrance and correcting an 18-inch error in footing positions.

Experts find that education prevention programs are effective in reducing or eliminating child sexual abuse cases.

flag behaviors of child molesters known as “grooming.” People should become concerned when adults repeatedly ignore boundaries and single out one child, Costello said. Secrecy or secret conversations are also warning signs to which parents and other adults should respond. “Trust your instincts,” Costello said. “Offenders are very skilled at building relationships with kids.” Prevention education, Costello said, is very nuanced. In general, the society’s motto is: If you see something, say something. Depending on the context of the situation, a person can address the behavior with the person doing the behavior, alert officials at the youth serving organization, report it to child protective services or call the police. “You want to say something until the behavior is stopped and resolved and the child is safe,” Costello said. “Always err on the side of child safety.” Removing the veil of secrecy Parent’s conversation with children on the topic should be casual, routine and centered on body safety. “Kids should understand about voice and choice,” Costello said. “We teach the children that any part of the body covered by a bathing suit is private.” Her organization has developed age-appropriate programs for children as young as kindergartners. One step that the society recommends is that parents always use the proper name for genitalia (e.g., penis, vagina) with their children, so if a child discloses being touched sexually, the risk of misunderstanding what the child is saying can be minimized. The society developed its evidence-based program, entitled Safe Touches: Personal Safety Training for Children, with funding from the
National Institutes of Health. Trust and believe a child It’s very important, both Costello and Forrester said, that children be believed and supported, when they disclose having been abused. It’s also important to never fault a child for the abuse. “Children may not disclose [sexual abuse] for many reasons including being told by the perpetrator that they won’t be believed, that they will get in trouble, or that the abuse was the child’s fault,” Forrester said. “Children can be ashamed to say anything or may be afraid of the perpetrator.” Some children immediately disclose abuse, while others don’t disclose it until adulthood; Forrester said many people never disclose the abuse. Legally, window of opportunity opens New York is among the first states in the nation to support new childhood sexual assault laws. When the law takes effect in June, victims of any age will have a one-year window of opportunity to file civil charges. Victims can reach out to the county’s bar association for referral to a qualified attorney who can evaluate their case, Forrester said. The Suffolk County Bar Association website is www.scba.org. The telephone number is 631-234-5551. For people seeking counseling, the Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline is dedicated to the prevention of child abuse. Serving the U.S. and Canada, the hotline is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with professional crisis counselors who — through interpreters — provide assistance in over 170 languages. The hotline offers crisis intervention, information and referrals to thousands of emergency, social service and support resources. All calls are confidential. The telephone number is 1-800-4-A-Child or 1-800-422-4453. The website is www.childhelp.org/hotline/ To arrange for prevention education, people can contact training@nyspcc.org.

What is depression?
What is involved in depression screening?
A. Depression is a serious medical illness that negatively impacts how a person feels, thinks and acts. It is one of the most common diagnoses made in a primary care physician’s office, and because depression is highly prevalent, every patient is screened for depression during their annual wellness visit. In the United States, nearly 20 percent of the population experiences an episode of depression at some point in their life, but fortunately, depression is treatable.
A. When I suspect a patient has clinical depression, I will ask questions about the symptoms they are facing and the effect of these symptoms on the patient’s life and relationships. I ask about factors that make symptoms worse (such as stressful life events), and gather information about any personal or family history of medical and psychiatric conditions. I also ask about thoughts of death or suicide and if these thoughts involve any plans or actions. Additionally, it is important to do a thorough physical exam to ensure that the depression is not linked to hormonal imbalances or other underlying medical conditions.
How do I know if I am depressed? A. People who are depressed feel sad most of the time, for at least two weeks. They also have at least one of the following symptoms: 1) They no longer care about the things they once enjoyed doing. This can make it difficult to work or perform daily tasks and can affect their relationships with other people. 2) They feel hopeless or sad most of the day almost every day.
What should I do if I feel depressed? A. If you think you might be depressed, let your doctor know so that they can evaluate you and refer you for appropriate treatment. There are many therapies available to combat depression, including medications, psychological counseling, or a combination of both. Not treating depression can lead to serious problems, including a lower quality of life, an increased risk of suicide, and worsening of other medical conditions. If you would like more information and are interested in making an appointment, please call (631) 870-3444. 162332
Depression is also associated with weight loss or weight gain, sleep disturbances, energy loss, forgetfulness, restlessness, and thoughts of death or suicide.

Family and friends celebrate ALS nonprofit founder’s special birthday While reaching 70 years old is a celebratory milestone for many, for one Miller Place resident, the birthday was a triumph. On April 28, Chris Pendergast celebrated a special day which loved ones and doctors thought he wouldn’t see after being diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS and Lou Gehrig’s disease, 26 years ago. Most patients only live a few years after being diagnosed. Pendergast is the founder of ALS Ride For Life, the Stony Brook-based nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness about ALS, funding research and providing patient services. More than two weeks before his big day, family members and friends attended a party for Pendergast at 89 North Music Venue in Patchogue to celebrate, while the Billy Joel tribute band Big Shot belted out some classic tunes. His wife, Christine Pendergast, said at the party he was surprised with a computer program that allows his communication device to generate his voice instead of a robotic one. The device produces a voice after he gazes at a letter, and the new program was put together using past recordings of him being interviewed. Christine Pendergast said her husband was surprised and overwhelmed by the gift, and she and their children were emotional, too. “You know you lose so much with ALS that having the gift of your own voice given back to you is a true gift of who you are as a person, and what you used to be before you lost so much to ALS,” she said. Fellow ALS patient Paul Weisman, who
described Pendergast as a living, breathing miracle, said the gift presentation was emotional for everyone in the room. “When they gave him his present, where he got his voice back, I was standing right next to Chris and I could see and hear people sobbing — not just crying but sobbing — because they were so happy that he got his voice back,” Weisman said. ALS Ride For Life started when Chris Pendergast embarked on a ride with his electric scooter from Yankee Stadium in the Bronx to Washington, D.C., 22 years ago to raise awareness about the disease and raise funds for research. After a few years, the ride was contained to New York — from Riverhead to the Bronx — where participants stop by schools along the way that take part in the organization’s presentations throughout the school year. This year’s ride events run from May 6 through 18. Richard Iannuzzi, 2nd vice chair of ALS Ride For Life, described the nonprofit’s founder as persistent and strong willed. “I think that’s probably key to what makes him do such terrific things with the ride as well as maintaining his own disposition in his approach to the disease,” Iannuzzi said. The 2nd vice chair said he met the Pendergasts 20 years ago through the teachers union as Chris Pendergast was a teacher in Northport while his wife taught in Comsewogue for 32 years. Iannuzzi said he estimates the group can visit up to 90 schools from September through May with presentations to raise awareness about ALS. The board member said Pendergast, through the example of his life, sends a general message to students about not losing hope, never giving up and always being optimistic.

“He always wants to deliver the message that if he doesn’t find his situation hopeless then you as a youngster — who is probably going through your own challenges, whether it’s bullying or divorce at home or what have you — if he doesn’t feel hopeless, and he can seek help the way we’re asking them for help, then you in the audience, if you’re facing the challenges of life, be sure to reach out and seek help from your parents and your teachers,” he said. During the Ride For Life events Long Island students and teachers line up with signs and cheer the ALS patients during the two-week trip, Iannuzzi said. “For the patients, it’s very exciting to have the attention, and for the youngsters, it’s very exciting to see they’re doing something good, and they’re supporting a wonderful cause,” he said. Weisman, who is 58 and was diagnosed with
ALS a little more than six years ago, said he found ALS Ride For Life online while researching the disease and met with the Pendergasts soon after discovering the organization. “When you’re diagnosed with ALS, your world is just completely turned upside down where I couldn’t work anymore,” he said. “So being with the ride has given me a purpose in life.” Weisman, who helps to conduct the school presentations, said he could do them all day, every day if possible, and he thinks the message resonates with everybody. “It’s not just about ALS,” he said. “This is in life in general. We’re all going to go through some pretty tough times, but you can ask for help. It’s OK.” To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the walk in 2017, Chris Pendergast road his wheelchair once again from Yankee Stadium to D.C., and Weisman said he walked along with him to talk to Congress members to advocate for ALS awareness. He also participates in the annual rides on Long Island, he said, which gives him hope for the future. Christine Pendergast said the funds raised by Ride For Life go toward ALS research, patient services, nursing respite plans, scholarships, a mobility program with a fleet of eight handicapped vans and to fund the Stony Brook University clinic that has been named the Christopher Pendergast ALS Center of Excellence. On May 11, ALS Ride For Life will hold its pinwheel ceremony at SBU where 6,000 pinwheels will be planted to represent those who have died from ALS in the past year. Those who have lost family members or friends to the disease can ask that their loved ones be added to a list of 90 whose names will be read that day to represent the patients who are lost to ALS every 90 minutes.

HUNTINGTON TOWN RESIDENT Q&A WHAT THE ONGOING NORTHPORT TAX TRIAL MEANS FOR YOU
The Long Island Power Authority is challenging the Town of Huntington’s $3.4 billion tax assessment of the Northport Power Plant in Suffolk County Supreme Court. Here are some common questions and answers on what this means for you.
With annual taxes of $84 million, the Northport plant is the highest taxed property in the United States – more than Disneyland and the Empire State Building combined. LIPA has sought a fair assessment for nearly a decade. Like any responsible homeowner or business who is overpaying, LIPA is now challenging the assessment so that an independent, third-party – a court – can determine the plant’s fair value.
WHY IS THE NORTHPORT POWER PLANT’S TAX BILL SO HIGH? The Town of Huntington has significantly overvalued the plant. For example, the Caithness Power Plant in Yaphank produces 50% more energy than the Northport plant each year with a tax bill of $9.6 million. Northport’s $84 million annual tax bill results from the Town’s $3.4 billion valuation, which exceeds that of a brand-new power plant built on Long Island.
HOW MUCH AM I PAYING IN MY ELECTRIC BILL FOR HIGH POWER PLANT TAXES? The typical Town of Huntington resident pays approximately 5% of their electric bill, or $85 a year, to support the school districts and local governments surrounding four of Long Island’s oldest power plants, including the Northport Plant. 2% of your electric bill goes directly to the Northport community, mostly to the Northport – East Northport Union Free School District.
WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF THE NORTHPORT POWER PLANT? Energy production at the Northport plant has declined by nearly 80% since 1999. The plant uses 50-year-old technology, which is more expensive to operate than modern power plants. As new, cleaner sources of energy are added to the electric grid, the use of the plant will continue to decline. Bringing the taxes down to a more sustainable level will better position the plant to continue to operate and will help attract future clean energy investment to the site.
WHAT HAPPENS IF LIPA WINS IN COURT? LIPA estimates that a fair valuation of the Northport plant would immediately increase the school taxes for a typical resident of the Northport-East Northport School District by over $200 per month. In addition, the Town of Huntington could owe LIPA’s customers over $650 million in tax refunds dating back to 2010 for over-assessing the plant. That’s over $5,000 per Huntington household.
WHAT IS LIPA’S SOLUTION? LIPA has offered a fair settlement to the Town of Huntington to phase down the taxes on the Northport plant from $84 million to $42 million per year over the remaining term of our contract to purchase power from the plant, which expires in April 2028. That would provide the residents of the Northport-East Northport School District with time to adjust to a more sustainable level of tax payments while waiving the Town’s $650 million tax refund liability to LIPA’s customers. LIPA estimates that the average household in the Northport-East Northport School District would see an increase of $13 per month in their school tax bill for each year of the settlement. That would be a cumulative increase of $117 per month by 2028. School district residents would still benefit from substantial tax payments not received by other districts in the Town of Huntington – continuing to hold down school tax rates for the Northport community. The increase for other Town residents would be less than $1 per month.
HOW DOES LIPA’S SOLUTION COMPARE TO THE PORT JEFFERSON POWER PLANT? The Town of Brookhaven and Village of Port Jefferson accepted LIPA’s settlement offer for the Port Jefferson Power Plant last year. The Port Jefferson plant has experienced a similar decline in usage, uses similar dated technology, and has similar operating costs as the Northport plant. The offer to the Town of Huntington for the Northport plant is the same as the Port Jefferson settlement.
IS LIPA’S SETTLEMENT OFFER STILL AVAILABLE? The settlement offer is still available, but the trial to determine the fair tax bill on the plant is ongoing and there’s not much time left. LIPA would like to help the Northport community adjust to a more sustainable level of tax payments on the plant over the remaining term of our power purchase contract. The longer a settlement is delayed, the shorter the transition period for the community until our power contract ends in April 2028.
WILL I SEE THE SAVINGS FROM A REDUCTION OF TAXES ON THE NORTHPORT PLANT? Yes. LIPA is run on a not-for-profit basis. Our customers pay our actual cost to buy electricity and deliver it to your home or business, with any changes automatically reflected in your monthly electric bill.
WHO HAS THE AUTHORITY TO SETTLE THIS CASE? WHAT CAN I DO? LIPA and the Town of Huntington are the parties that have the legal authority to come to a fair settlement that puts Northport’s taxes on a more sustainable path. For more information, go to lipower.org.

Letters to the editor
Pay attention to your community
Among all the political discourse going on in this country there are a few basic tenets we should all be aware of. Starting with the Electoral College, our Founding Fathers wanted all states to be represented. The Electoral College prevents the smaller states from being disenfranchised and prevents the tyranny of the larger states. The verbal fad since the 2016 election is a push to eliminate the Electoral College. Next, border problems. How long would you last in a business if you still had no solution to immigration issues since the 1980s — note to Democrats Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. Isn’t it ironic that people are leaving their country because of lawlessness, yet some come here breaking our laws, crossing the border cutting ahead of their
Editorial
The house on Lower Rocky Point Road in Sound Beach, a relatively quiet, two-lane road that parallels the North Shore coastline is somehow indicative of comfortable, suburban living. The house is quaint and the front yard is loaded with lawn ornaments. Now there’s something hauntingly disturbing at the sight of it. On April 25, the Suffolk County district attorney announced a multicount indictment of a resident of that Sound Beach house, Raymond Rodio III, for allegedly keeping over 20 women in a cycle of drugs and prostitution over several years, often using that basement for activities related to that prostitution. The parents said they didn’t know. Comments from community members online were similarly flummoxed. Nobody expected a story like that to come from such a neighborhood. Nobody ever does. Everyone knows about the opioid epidemic. It’s said you don’t have to stick your arm out too far before you brush against someone who has been impacted by the crisis. For years it has ravaged Long Island, and only with concerted and multiyear efforts from community activists, journalists and policymakers are we finally starting to make efforts from the ground level up. Local legislators and school districts continually host Narcan training courses to aid overdose cases, and with the New York State budget, an expanded access to medication-assisted treatment has become available in both the hospital and jail settings. Residents have commented online there are houses they suspect are involved in drug dealing, but why would anybody expect that this case also has allegedly been involved in human trafficking? That’s just the thing — perhaps people need to be more alert to prevent these crimes. Rodio was allegedly operating this illicit scheme for five years or maybe even longer. He got away with it for that long only until thankfully during an unrelated traffic stop an officer recognized that the woman passenger in Rodio’s car showed signs of being in a forced prostitution situation. Prostitution? On the North Shore? Yes, it does happen here, and it doesn’t just take place in seedy motels or in illicit massage parlor operations. It happens at reputable hotels, and online, through well-known websites like craigslist or on dating apps like Tinder. It’s likely that people as young as 15 years are involved. These sex traffickers often recruit online through social media or find young women with poor family lives or with existing drug problems. It can happen anywhere. The case in Sound Beach more than proves it. It’s time for parents and teachers to learn about this issue, one that has only grown with the opioid epidemic. Children need to learn the dangers beyond drugs, and adults should learn the warning signs to notice young women who might be involved in these truly horrific situations. Many North Shore communities have continued to step up in the overwhelming face of the opioid crisis. We can take a stand against this issue as well.
Facts for thought during political discourse fellow immigrants who are waiting at the portals. Where is the social justice there? How many teachers would allow and condone the tougher kids to cut ahead of the line of kids following class rules? This is a microcosm of our border problems. Only chaos and anarchy results in lawbreaking in or out of the classroom. Now, a public health crisis at our doorstep. Why are politicians pushing for the legalization of marijuana when there are concrete studies since the 1800s linking marijuana to mental illness and violence. Could the common denominator of the increase in bipolar, schizophrenia and school violence be due to widespread marijuana use in recent years? A recently published book by Alex Berenson, a former New York Times reporter, is a must-read: “Tell Your Children:
The Truth About Marijuana, Mental Illness and Violence.” Is the marijuana revenue blinding the governorships or are our politicians looking for the young vote? The most egregious of all: How is “infanticide” not only accepted but celebrated? How ironic that animal rights are taking precedent over human rights. In conclusion, what if Hillary Clinton (D) had come out on election night and encouraged her supporters to get behind our elected President Donald Trump (R) instead of the “resist movement.” Isn’t that what she had accused Trump of what he would do? Our real strength comes from unity not diversity. Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness! Carol Florio and Lisa Pius Old Field
Zeldin puts faith in bad actors On April 25, Vladimir Putin of Russia and Kim Jong-un of North Korea, two of the world’s preeminent authoritarian dictators, met regarding Pyongyang’s denuclearization. While I would support any action that would reduce nuclear weapons in our world, I am skeptical of putting my faith in these two men, who have committed atrocities against their own people and are global bad actors. History has taught me to be wary of murderous authoritarians. Unfortunately, our representative to Congress, Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley), doesn’t seem to be a student of history, or of the actions of these men. Zeldin appeared on Fox News the same day as the summit, gushing that there was a “great deal to be made” at this summit. This belies
the history of these nations and these men, and is a foolish position. The fact that Zeldin takes this position while sitting on the House Foreign Affairs Committee is alarming. Zeldin seems to place more faith in bad actors than he does our own Congress. In a recent interview with RiverheadLOCAL, our congressman said, “I don’t see Congress right now getting anything accomplished with regards to anything.” An elected official who places more faith in dictators than the body that he serves in is unfit for the job. This follows a pattern with Zeldin, who has continuously supported bad actors on the global stage, including refusing to hold the Saudis accountable for their assault on Yemeni civilians, and for the murder of
Jamal Khashoggi. It is clear that Zeldin has ceased to be a true representative of New York’s diverse 1st Congressional District, and has instead opted to be a mouthpiece for the agenda of our own authoritarian president and administration. I cannot even accuse Zeldin of “dual loyalty,” as he has so thoroughly sold out this district on domestic issues like taxes, health care and the social safety net, to foreign policy issues like I’ve discussed. It is clear that Zeldin is performing for an audience of one, the most loyal of Fox News watchers, President Donald Trump (R). Zeldin is unfit to serve on the Foreign Affairs Committee and in the U.S. Congress. Shoshana Hershkowitz South Setauket
Taken out of context or not Context: The words that are used with a certain word or phrase and that help to explain its meaning. That is the Webster’s Dictionary definition of context. It is also the word that Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota) is using to hide behind. A sitting United States member of Congress referred to the horrific events of Sept. 11, 2001, as “some people did something” during a recent speech to the Council on American-Islamic Relations. Most Americans were stunned and hurt by her trivializing such a world-altering
event that killed approximately 3,000 innocent people and continues to cause casualties through horrible illness. What possible excuse could the congresswoman use for being so insensitive and thoughtless you might ask? She and her defenders claim she was taken out of context. Being a reasonable person I immediately watched her complete speech which is on YouTube. I encourage my neighbors to do the same. I watched her body language, the tone and inflection of her voice, and carefully listened to the
words she spoke. There is no mistake. Any reasonable person will see her choice of the phrase “some people did something” was clearly intentional and deliberate. The words that come to my mind to describe the congresswoman’s description of that horrible day in the history of the world are disgraceful, ignorant, insulting, disgusting, divisive, arrogant and dangerous. I use this many adjectives so I am not taken “out of context.” Charles Cozzolino Setauket

Translating the messages behind college advice
A
dvice is wonderful, unless it isn’t. The giving and receiving of advice is nothing like the process of exchanging gifts around the December holidays. Often, there is a not-so-subtle subtext to advice that sitcoms have used to relatable comedic effect. A comment like, “You’re wearing that to your date?” isn’t advice, per se, although the underD. None lying message is of the above clear: “You could BY DANIEL DUNAIEF do so much better.” Extending this even further, the speaker seems to suggest that the listener
returns to his or her dorm room, finds something that’s not wrinkled and doesn’t smell like the gym, and then go out on the date. With high school and college graduations on the horizon, it’s inevitable that people will share their thoughts, opinions and ideas with the person they are celebrating. Here are a few pieces of advice and the translation for them: Advice: “You might want to study a little harder in college than you did in high school. It’s much harder.” Translation: “You’re probably lucky to graduate from high school and you won’t be so lucky in college, so take this time to start over and get your act together. Maybe you should consider studying more than 12 hours before a test on material you read all night the day before.” Advice: “The time goes so fast. Take the time to appreciate and seize every opportunity.” Translation: “I missed out on a lot of things in college and I’d like to go back and take better classes, find different friends and start over
again. How about if you invent a time machine while you’re in college and send me back, so I can do it right this time?” Advice: “Not everything your professors tell you is true, accurate or in your best interests.” Translation: “Someone told me to major in chemistry. I hated it. I did something else for a living and it would have helped to take courses that made more sense. I could really use that time machine about now. How about if you make that your senior thesis?” Advice: “Pick your friends carefully.” Translation: “I didn’t really like your high school friends and I wish social media didn’t exist, so you wouldn’t stay in touch with all those people who steered you the wrong way. How about if you pick the nerdy woman who’s going to start her own company some day or the intellectual guy who plans to open a new school? Maybe, instead of asking me what classes I think you should take, you should send me a list of your prospective friends. That way I can be
like a Roman emperor, putting a thumbs up or thumbs down on the relationship.” Advice: “Pizza and soda are killers for the waistline.” Translation: “I had the “freshman 20” and it took months to lose it. I blame pizza and soda which, at college, is pretty much 90 percent of your diet. Good luck avoiding the easy sugars and carbs when you’re up late at night, having the conversation of your life and you need energy so you don’t nod off when your friend from New Zealand with the cool accent shares some story you know you’ll want to recall the next day.” Advice: “Floss your teeth.” Translation: “This comes from hard-earned experience. Flossing is the best way to prevent root canals and those are among the most painful procedures many of us endure as we age. That is probably the best advice for graduates leaving the nest. If you floss, the older version of yourself will be eternally grateful.”
Winning institutions for independence and fortune
D
id you know that the Boston Tea Party, during which colonists boarded British ships anchored in Boston Harbor and pitched their precious cargoes of tea into the sea, was organized by a local chamber of commerce? In 1773, in response to the onerous Tea Act imposed on the North American colonies by the British Parliament, the Charlestown Chamber of Commerce — that’s always been a tough part of town — called its members together and dramatically displayed their displeasure at yet another tax. And the Between rest is history — you and me our history. All of which is BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF to say, chambers of commerce have been around for a long time and, in their own way, can be quite powerful.
How do I know about this? I was watching the television program, “Jeopardy!” the other night, fascinated by the latest contestant who has won well over a million dollars so far and in record time, when the answer to the final question about a group founded in 1599 was, “Who was the chamber of commerce?” Intrigued, I looked up the history of chambers and discovered that in Marseille, France, tradesmen had banded together at that time to protect and promote business. They called themselves “chambre de commerce,” chartered by King Henri IV. There are all sorts of chambers today: international, national, national-international, state, regional and particularly local such bodies. They still have the same mission and generally are respectfully regarded by the public. They tend to be a nonpartisan source of information about their towns, especially regarding business, and membership in them suggests a certain authenticity. There are roughly 4,000 local chambers in the United States today, according to the internet, and they often advocate with government on behalf of business. Our media group belongs to eight of them

in the areas we serve across three townships. Some are larger, like Huntington and Smithtown, some are just getting started, like Rocky Point Sound Beach. Earlier this week I attended the Brookhaven Chambers of Commerce Coalition, usually referred to as the BCCC. Founded in 1992 by Barbara Ransome of Port Jefferson, among others, the BCCC was celebrating the 20th anniversary of its annual gala, honoring a member of the year chosen by each of 16 chambers. Some 230 people filled the room and patiently applauded as the chambers in turn introduced their winners. The now-famous “Jeopardy!” contestant, James Holzhauer, did have the right answer but only barely squeaked by one of the other two challengers to enlarge his winnings and earn the right to return the next night. Holzhauer is one of the more unforgettable characters that have appeared on the show. He is both “extraordinarily knowledgeable,” as described in The New York Times, but also has brought an unprecedentedly aggressive strategy to the game program. He is, by his own description, a professional sports gambler, and starts with the high value questions first, then bets shrewdly

and big on the Daily Double. He thinks nothing of interrupting the amiable chatter from host Alex Trebek and moving the pace of the traditionally polite game faster. Married, with children, he is laser focused most of the time but seems to have relaxed a bit and even joked with the audience, as the days go by and his winnings pile up. Holzhauer is different from the long line of previous contestants in key ways. By his own admission, he is used to winning and losing large sums of money all the time, so he doesn’t tremble when he bets $60,000 on the Final Jeopardy question. And he knows he is well prepared for the game. What is the secret to his immense knowledge of trivia? He wasn’t a diligent student in school, he admits, but he prepared for “Jeopardy!” by reading children’s books in libraries where facts are presented in an interesting way. He worked really hard to achieve his longtime goal of getting onto the game show, and he studied to win. Three cheers then for chambers of commerce and libraries.
