ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is a slam dunk By giSelle Barkley

As the president of the Port Jefferson Station Teachers Association, Beth Dimino is rarely hit in the face with whipped cream. But on Aug. 26, Dimino sat wearing a large black garbage bag, as whipped cream from a pie toss dripped down her face and body — all in support of the second annual ALS Ice Bucket Challenge at Heritage Park in Mount Sinai. Hundreds of people attended the event, which aimed to raise awareness of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and money for research into the disease, through the Stony Brook-based organization Ride for Life. People who purchased a ticket could trade it for a chance to throw a whipped

cream-filled plate at volunteers like Dimino. Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) was one of many, including local school principals and teachers, to participate in the event’s dunk tank or piethrowing games. For Bonner, supporting the cause is important, as her grandfather died from the rare disease around 35 years ago. “It robs your body, not your mind,” Bonner said. ALS affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing motor neurons to degenerate. People with the disease lose control over their muscles, leaving them unable to speak, eat, move or breathe on their own. The cause of the disease is not yet known.

Bonner jumped at the chance to participate in the event this week. “Chris just makes you want to [be involved],” she said about

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone and Health Commissioner James Tomarken encouraged residents who use tobacco to break their addiction through the “Learn to Be Tobacco Free” program. “We are promoting good health to all residents in Suffolk County,” Bellone said. “For those who are addicted to tobacco or nicotine products, we urge them to get the support they need to prevent illnesses that are caused by tobacco.” Smithtown’s session was scheduled at Smithtown Public Library, 1 North Coun-

try Road on Mondays from 6 to 7 p.m. on Sept. 21, 28, Oct. 5, 19, 26 and Nov. 2. The classes are free to Suffolk County residents, though there is a nominal fee for medication for medically eligible participants. “Breaking an addiction to nicotine can be very difficult,” Tomarken said. “Studies have shown that smokers who try to quit smoking using a combination of behavioral support and medicine are three times more likely to be successful than those who try to stop smoking without support.” — Phil Corso

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water. a 25 lb. alligator snapping turtle was found this past weekend in the stream opposite the smithtown Bull in smithtown, with enough power to bite off someone’s finger or toe, officials said. “We’re just lucky the gentleman who found it knew how to handle it, and knew to contact us,” said roy Gross, chief of the suffolk county society for the prevention of cruelty to animals. “This reptile is capable of taking toes and part of a foot clean off. people are constantly walking by this area barefoot, including children.” a father and son, both suffolk county residents, found the reptile while they were preparing to go kayaking, officials said. Gross said that this freshwater reptile is not indigenous to this area, and are mainly found from eastern texas to the Florida panhandle. Gross and Dan Losquadro, Highway superintendent for Brookhaven, both said that this is another example of people dumping reptiles in public places, which then create a serious threat and risk to the public. “This is a dangerous animal. We don’t want animals abandoned. But we don’t want to endanger the public,” the high-

The 132 first-year students of the Stony Brook University School of Medicine Class of 2019 — the largest ever in the school’s history — officially began their training with the school’s annual White Coat Ceremony. At the Aug. 23 event, the incoming medical students received their first physician-in-training white coats and took the Hippocratic oath for the first time. The Class of 2019 is a talented and diverse group coming from New York State, eight other states, and around the world. Only 7.4 percent of the total 5,255 applicants were accepted. A larger portion of students in this class, compared to previous incoming classes, already have advanced degrees. A total of 23 hold advanced degrees, including one Ph.D., one Doctor of Pharmacy, 18 masters’ and three Masters in Public Health. “Today is a celebratory and symbolic day for all of you. As you receive your first white coats, enjoy the honor and responsibility that comes with wearing the white coat,” said Kenneth Kaushansky, senior vice president of Health Sciences and dean of the School of Medicine. “Medicine is a field unmatched in the range of emotions you will experience. You will be struck by many firsts — your first newborn delivery, your first sharing of a diagnosis of cancer, the first patient you will see cured, and your first patient death. And never forget that your journey will require lifelong learning, as you take part in many advances in the art and the science of medicine in the years to come.” Among the many accomplished members of the Class of 2019 include Tony Wan, the son of Chinese immigrants, who enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps right after high school. He served two tours in Iraq — where his duties included providing first aid to fellow soldiers. He then left the military and pursued college at CUNY-York College, where he graduated as class valedictorian in 2012. After seeing too many of his fellow Marines with life-changing injuries, he’s motivated toward becoming a neurologist specializing in traumatic brain injuries. Wan said he particularly wants to work to improve the care of veterans. Persis Puello, a mother of two and the oldest incoming student, at 34 years of age, is also part of the 2019 class. She earned advanced degrees from Columbia University, a Master of Science in Applied Physiology and Nutrition; and from Stony Brook, a Master of Science in Physiology and Biophysics. Her career as an athletic trainer and nutritionist inspired her to work toward becoming an orthopedic surgeon and, eventually, a team doctor. She credited support from her husband and her sister for enabling her to raise her two young children, ages 3 and 8, while pursing the challenge of a career in medicine. Nicholas Tsouris, who grew up in Stony Brook and is a former professional lacrosse player, was part of a team of fellow students hailed by Popular Mechanics magazine as “Backyard Geniuses” for their invention of a spoke-less bicycle. After graduating from Yale, he worked on Wall Street while playing major league lacrosse, later deciding to pursue medicine. The school has steadily increased its incoming class size over the past several years in order to address the significant shortage of physicians nationally, as cited by the Association of American Medical Colleges. New to the ceremony this year was the presentation of a stethoscope to each student to accompany with their white coats. The school’s alumni association donated the 132 stethoscopes for the event.

More mosquitoes, birds test positive for West Nile To date, 80 mosquitos and 7 bird samples test positive By Rohma aBBas

Nine more mosquitos and two birds have tested positive for West Nile virus in various neighborhoods across Suffolk County, Health Commissioner Dr. James L. Tomarken announced on Monday. The mosquito samples, collected from Aug. 11 to 14, hailed from: Huntington, Selden, West Babylon, Bay Shore, Holbrook, Farmingville and Watch Hill on Fire Island. A crow collected on Aug. 14 from Stony Brook and a blue jay collected on Aug. 18 from Smithtown, also tested positive for the virus. To date, this year Suffolk’s total West Nile count comes to 80 mosquitos and seven birds. No humans or horses have tested positive for the virus in Suffolk this year. First detected in birds and mosquito samples in Suffolk in 1999, and again each year thereafter, the virus is transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected mosquito. While Dr. Tomarken said there’s no cause for alarm, the county is urging residents to reduce exposure to the virus, which “can be debilitating to humans.” “The breed of mosquito known as culex pipiens/restuans lay their eggs in fresh water-filled containers, so dumping rainwater that collects in containers around your

house is important,” he said. Residents should try to eliminate stagnant water where mosquitos breed, in order to reduce the mosquito population around homes. That includes: disposing of tin cans, plastic containers, ceramic pots or similar water-holding containers; removing discarded tires; cleaning clogged gutters; turning over plastic wading pools and wheelbarrows when they’re not being used; changing the water in bird baths; and draining water from pool covers Most people infected with West Nile will experience mild or no symptoms, but some can develop severe symptoms, including high fever, headache, neck stiffness, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, vision loss, numbness and paralysis. The symptoms may last several weeks and neurological effects may be permanent. Individuals, especially those 50 years of age or older or those with compromised immune systems, who are most at risk, are urged to take precautions to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes. Residents are advised to avoid mosquito bites by: minimizing outdoor activities between dusk and dawn; wearing shoes and socks, long pants and long-sleeved shirts when outdoors for long periods of time or when mosquitos are more active; using

mosquito repellent when outdoors, following label directions carefully; and making sure all windows and doors have screens and that all screens are in good condition. To report dead birds, call the West Nile virus hotline in Suffolk County at 631787-2200 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Residents are encouraged

to take a photograph of any bird in question. To report mosquito problems or stagnant pools of water, call the Department of Public Works’ Vector Control Division at 631-852-4270. For medical questions related to West Nile virus, call 631-854-0333.

Town proposes law to monitor illegal rental homes By Giselle Barkley

104323

It’s a battle between the town and landlords as officials and concerned homeowners keep trying to combat illegal housing. A proposed Brookhaven Town law aims to prevent overcrowding in rental homes by limiting the number of allowed tenants to four unrelated people — half as many as currently permitted — and restricting the number of permitted vehicles at a rental house to one car per legal bedroom plus one additional car. At a four-bedroom rental house, that translates to five allowed vehicles. The proposal is the most recent in a string of initiatives to prevent illegal house rentals, including a measure that outlawed paving over front yards to make additional space to park cars. “That’s how bad it was,” Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) said during last week’s Brookhaven Town Board meeting. The housing issue came to the forefront a few years ago with the help of Bruce Sander, the president of Stony Brook Concerned Homeowners. In Three Village and neighboring areas like Port Jefferson and Middle Country, residents have spoken against illegal and often overcrowded rental homes that are filled with Stony Brook University students, citing quality of life issues such as noise and overflowing trash. Romaine said the rules detailed in the proposed law would make it easier for the town to identify rental homes that house more people than legally allowed. “There are a number of people who have taken over foreclosed houses for sale with four bedrooms,” Romaine said. “They’ve carved it up and put around eight to 10 students in them.” Sander said students aren’t the issue — landlords are. “The law department and town investigators are on top of this all the time because the landlord never obeys the laws,” Sander said in an interview, referring to landlords who rent houses to more tenants than legally allowed. “It’s just the nature of the beast; it’s just what they do.” Sander helped found Stony Brook Concerned Homeowners around three years ago, after he moved to Stony Brook and identified two illegal boarding houses across the street from him. As the boarding houses became disruptive, residents in the area became concerned. “I saw the value of my house and the value of my property just go down the tank.” Tracking the number of people living in one rental home has been difficult for the town, but officials hope counting cars will make the process easier. The town’s overall goal is to provide legal housing for students without disrupting their neighbors. “Stony Brook is a middle to upper-middle income,” Romaine said. “People moving in with their kids expect a certain quality of life.” One member of the concerned homeowners group said at the town board meeting that he would like the town to focus on property upkeep as well. “We’d like [the homes] to stay at a level of cleanliness and order that the community has around [the home],” the man said. While rental housing and landlord issues are not as bad as they once were, Sander said there is more to be done. “We still have a lot of work to do; these houses are in disrepair,” Sander said during the board meeting. “Some of these landlords just believe that they’re immune and that our group is going to go away. Well no, we’re growing. We have 1,400 to 1,500 homeowners that are standing strong against these illegal houses.” The public hearing on the latest proposed law is set for Thursday, Oct. 1, at 6:30 p.m. at Town Hall in Farmingville.

DATED: August 25th, 2015 BOARD OF FIRE COMMISSIONERS CENTEREACH FIRE DISTRICT TOWN OF BROOKHAVEN ATTEST: JENNIFER GARDNER Secretary 238 9/3 1x tmc NOTICE OF AMENDMENT & HEARING Notice is hereby given that a public hearing will be held by the Town Board at Brookhaven Town Office Complex, Town Auditorium, One Independence Hill, Farmingville, New York on 09/17/2015 at 6:30 pm, to consider enacting the following proposed amendment(s) to the Uniform Code of Traf-

for more than 20 years. “He just inspired so many people to participate and bring awareness.” According to Ray Manzoni, a member of the Ride For Life board of directors, Pendergast wanted to make this year’s event at Heritage Park bigger and better than last year’s ice bucket challenge, which focused on the ice bucket challenge itself. Last year’s event occurred during the height of a worldwide trend in which people dumped buckets of ice water over their heads and challenged others to follow suit, in order to bring publicity to the disease. Lori Baldassare, president of the Mount Sinai Heritage Trust, Bonner and Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai), all of whom attended this year’s event, were “instrumental in getting [the event] approved quickly” last year, according to Manzoni. That inaugural event was organized in four days. Manzoni said this year they added the pie-tossing event, balloon twisting and face painting booths, cotton candy, hot dogs and more. The Comsewogue girls’ varsity and junior varsity field hockey teams were also at

the event. While many of them were dancing to the music there, they also donated money and helped organize the buckets for people to dump water on themselves or others during the ice bucket challenge. The buckets were arranged at the end of the event to spell out “ICE ALS.” “The goal is to have this and other events that Ride For Life supports and make them bigger and better,” Manzoni said. Although he did not know how much money the group raised this year, Manzoni hoped it matched or exceeded the amount of money raised last year: $5,000. He added that successful research into ALS can also help research for both Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, which are more common illnesses but have similarities to ALS. According to the ALS Association’s website, the disease affects around 6,400 people annually in the United States alone. Only 10 percent of people who are diagnosed with the disease inherited it, while the rest are affected by the disease at random. For people and organizations like Ride For Life, these events are important. The goal is “to build awareness and money so that we can continue [our efforts],” Manzoni said.

Unless we are permitted to rebuild, the shelter and the pets we serve face an uncertain future! Unbelievably, the Pine Barrens Society wants to kill the project. The planned project would have many important environmental benefits to the Peconic River and

PEOPLE Hauppauge veep serves as guest of honor

Steven G. Santino, first vice president and senior growth manager at Hauppauge’s People’s United Bank, was the guest of honor at the annual Geraldo Rivera Golf Classic on June 22, a tournament established more than 20 years ago to raise funds for Life’s WORC. Santino, a Huntington resident, is responsible for 57 People’s United Bank branches in New York, which includes the growing presence that this 170-year-old financial institution has enjoyed in the Long Island region. The sold-out fundraiser was held at Edgewood Country Club. The proceeds went to assist some 1,200 people with developmental disabilities, mental retardation and autism who receive services from Life’s WORC, the Garden City-based agency launched 45 years ago by Queens Courier newspaper publisher Victoria Schneps with help from television journalist icon Geraldo Rivera. WABC Radio (770 AM) co-sponsored this event, and Geraldo Rivera interviewed Santino and other guests during a live WABC Radio broadcast from the golf tournament site. Based at People’s United Bank in Hauppauge, Santino is very active in a variety of nonprofit and municipal organizations. Santino received his bachelor’s degree in communications from the Southern Connecticut State University, his master’s degree in industrial relations and a graduate certificate in human resources from the University of New Haven. He also graduated from the National School of Banking with honors.

Above, fishing on the Long Island Sound will bring many rewarding catches this September. At right, angler Craig Scail with a fine brace of local, Long Island Sound black sea bass.

This fall it’s all about that bass, and bluefish, too Anglers can rejoice as early September, fall fishing arrives By AngeLo PeLuSo

September marks the beginning of meteorological autumn. It is a time when we bid farewell to summer and embrace the magnificence of the fall migratory run of local game fish. This is a time eagerly awaited by all Long Island anglers, as amassing baitfish and pursuing game fish move into high gear. The stage has been set all around Long Island for the grandest spectacle of the fishing season. Although no place is more representative of this activity than the fabled waters of Montauk Point and the beaches of the South Shore, the open Long Island Sound and the beaches of the North Shore can give anglers a solid opportunity at some terrific fall action. While North Shore fishing may not be as frenzied, concentrated or sustained as it is at the end of Long Island, there is, nonetheless, some fine fishing to be had for those who put in the time and are willing to move about to find fish. A decade or so ago the North Shore of Long Island would boast respectable

spring and early fall runs of striped bass. Conditions related to cyclical weather changes, baitfish movement and the migratory patterns and behaviors of game fish, most notably striped bass, have somewhat altered the landscape of the fall run in the area of the central Long Island Sound. It seems as if the last half dozen years or so have brought stronger spring fishing than prolonged fall runs, especially those runs that occur close to the beaches, whereas the fall run would often last a few weeks. Now, some of the best late-season inshore bass fishing can often be measured in days, not weeks. The exception to this is that whatever bass remain in the area congregate off many of the deep-water drop-offs to bulk up on bait that follows the same path. At this time of year, diamond jigging is king. But all is not lost to the shore-bound angler. One of the keys to scoring bass and big blues from September to the end of the season is mobility. A body in motion should stay in motion until such time as

fish are located. Too many anglers spend too much time remaining stagnant, waiting for the fish. There are many timetested spots where the probabilities are high that fish will move in as certain phases of the tide or current movement, so spend time fishing those locations. Obviously, these situations vary with the seasons, but time on the water and consistent previous successes are good barometers of future potential. That said, from September until the end of the season, any of the central Long Island beaches from those in and around the Huntington Harbor/Eatons Neck area, out to the beaches of the North Fork, can turn on any given day with bass headed east and close to the edges of the surf line. Many of the bass that linger west of Huntington in Nassau County tend to move west and back out into the New York Bight, but those movements are not always easy to predict as they are on the South Shore, where fish move east to west. Bass and some large blues can be seen in the Sound moving both east and west, so who knows how the fish decide to leave the Sound. That movement, though, argues for

the angler to remain in motion and to keep tabs on the whereabouts of fall bait. While not all parts of the Sound enjoy prolific concentrations of bait throughout the season, the cooling down of water temperatures and the shortened hours of daylight in September will stimulate various baits to amass into large rafts. Sand eels, spearing, bay anchovies and white bait like finger mullet will motivate the bass and blues. Most bait will be found along deep-water drops, moving out from the harbors or cruising the surf line. All scenarios present productive fishing opportunities.

Home Services Business Profile

Worth Painting – From Montauk to Manhattan

Hi, I am Ryan Southworth, owner of Worth Painting. I’ve lived on the North Shore of Long Island my entire life, originally in Port Jefferson Station and now in Miller Place. My children and my beautiful wife, Erin, and I love this area and are proud to be a part of the community. When I started Worth Painting over 26 years ago (at a very young age!) I knew I had found a career doing something I was both good at and felt good about doing! There is nothing more satisfying than when a job is complete, seeing how happy the homeowners are… it makes all the hard work so worthwhile! I love seeing something go from plain to beautiful through the work of my own hands! I take pride in each project and treat it with the care I would give my own home. Worth Painting has grown from only painting to sheet rock repair, taping and spackling, carpentry, faux painting, power washing, deck restorations and all phases

but I do projects from Manhattan to Montauk! Some of these projects include work in historical Stony Brook and upkeep work for the Ward Melville Heritage complex. I am currently involved as a hands-on renovator on the hit show, The Profit. Worth Painting is certified with the Better Business Bureau and is honored to have their number one recommendation. The company is licensed, insured, and bonded, and I carry Workmen’s Comp for my employees. Call (631) 331-5556 for a free estimate for your project and join the happy homeowners who have enhanced their homes with Worth Painting.

of interior and exterior work. No job is too big or too small. I work with an experienced, professional crew and most have been with me for over 15 years. I work on and supervise every job; I am not an absentee boss. My company is well established on the North Shore

Brookhaven Town wants to limit the number of cars allowed per house.

EDITORIAL

Revisiting our idea of quality of life

Long Island is infamous for its numerous layers of government, and sometimes those layers try to legislate too much of our lives. An underlying misconception about what truly affects “quality of life” is forcing our elected officials to pitch laws that are more knee-jerk reactions and overregulation than appropriate responses. We are seeing it in several North Shore communities, like in Brookhaven Town this week. As part of the town’s fight against overcrowded and illegal rental houses — many of them inhabited by students in the neighborhoods around Stony Brook University — officials want to limit the number of allowed vehicles per bedroom in a house, to help them track the number of people living in a home. But elected leaders are reacting based upon unrealistic expectations of what “quality of life” should mean to the average Long Islander. Telling a homeowner how many vehicles they can have, based on the number of bedrooms in a home, is drawing a dangerous line in the sand. What would that do to the basic Brookhaven nuclear family with four older kids, sharing two bedrooms? What would that do to the average car collector? Let’s also not forget about a different — but relevant — issue on Long Island: It’s difficult to even get around out here without a vehicle because of shoddy public transportation. And now we are going to limit the number of cars a family home can possess? There are already provisions in place to penalize irresponsible neighbors who make too much noise, don’t properly dispose of trash or park on lawns — true quality of life issues. Cracking down on vehicle ownership is beyond the pale, especially if everyone is parked legally. If we cannot use existing provisions to track or police rentals, perhaps they are not enough of a nuisance for us to get involved. Neighborhoods change. People build. People leave. New people with new personalities come in. These things happen, and it isn’t the job of our county or town officials to make regulations in an attempt to control that.

Vote for Martha TO THE EDITOR: I’m writing to you about Martha Luft who is again running for election as Family Court Judge. I think the world of her, and I am asking for you to help out by contributing to her candidacy. Martha went to Stony Brook University where she was Phi Beta Kappa; her law degree is from Stanford Law School. She has had 20 years of legal practice, 8 of them in the N.Y.S. Attorney General’s office and the rest in private law firms. I can vouch for her because, when she was in private practice, she was the attorney for a deal that I was involved in and she was very good indeed. And now, after serving for these

last 10 years on the Family Court, she has by now presided over 1,000 cases involving the neglect of and abuse of children, juvenile delinquency, family offenses, orders of protection, custody disputes, persons in need of supervision, applications for Special Immigrant Juvenile Status and (happily) adoptions. As acting [New York State] Supreme Court Justice, she spent three years presiding over hundreds of guardianship proceedings for incapacitated adults. She is widely respected for her compassionate temperament and calm demeanor under difficult circumstances, as well as her intelligence and broad knowledge of the law. Her capabilities are clear when you know that Martha Luft is the

only candidate running who has a Highly Qualified rating from the Independent Judicial Election Qualification Commission — The Bar Association. Martha’s husband is Dr. Benjamin Luft, she has three grown children who were all raised in Setauket, and she is the proud grandmother of three.

A required good act has a connection to The Chocolate War

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

ello, ladies,” the gentleman at the front door said. The blushing and grinning reminded me of middle school, where the athletic star walks into a room and the girls swooned. Except that, in this case, it wasn’t a group of middle school girls, it was their middle-aged mothers.

“

“Hey, bub,” I wanted to shout, “back here, behind the considerably taller women sits a man.” Of course, I didn’t say that, because I didn’t want to stand out, or even up, for that matter. I had a good seat and was waiting for a key moment to contribute something or to clear out. I was at a do-gooders gathering. That’s not the name of it, because people don’t generally come up with such generic sounding names for a collection of people who want to make a change, to help people, to make a difference in the world. But, really, that’s what they were. Why were they there? Who knows? I didn’t ask them. I suppose it could have been that they all felt a strong calling to contribute. It could have also been that they had friends who would be there that night and they wanted to do their part, alongside their close friends, to effect change. Or maybe it was because they were required to be there,

because their daughters played on a sports team and the parents of the team captains had the responsibility to make sure everyone, and they meant everyone, as email after email said, attended and contributed. After all, for this effort to be successful, they needed 100 percent participation. Lovely, lovely, lovely. But wait; I seem to recall reading this book called The Chocolate War, which kept springing to mind as I was furiously typing details of this meeting to my wife. For instance, I told her that I’d never smelled such a powerful combination of floral scents. The host of this gathering had gone deep into the well of potpourri for a scent that, I’m guessing, carried over the river and through the woods all the way to grandma’s house. I also told her that I was the only man in the room and that there was a plate of cookies in the center of the island that no one touched.

Anyway, in The Chocolate War, by Robert Cormier, Jerry Renault, on an assignment from a group of unofficial student leaders, is told not to sell chocolates as part of a fundraising campaign. When the assignment ends and he’s supposed to decide to accept the chocolates, he continues to refuse. Ultimately, he suffers serious consequences from rebelling against the school and the Vigils, the student thugs who effectively run the school. I’m not suggesting that these delightful women, with their floral-scented kitchens and earnest, sincere, and heartfelt grins and plans are anything like the Vigils. They are working toward a great cause and are encouraging complete participation. But, something feels wrong about the compulsory nature of a good act. Instead of everyone working for one, particular effort, perhaps this group could encourage full participation in a charity, good

cause or effort of each player, or a family-choice activity. I get it, of course. The complete effort of the players and all their families could easily be greater than the sum of the parts of small efforts from each person. Maybe it was because I was the only man in the room, or maybe it was because I am such a fan of The Chocolate War, but I couldn’t help wondering if there was a coercive undercurrent to all this cheerleading.
