Nick Fusco is still in college, but he already has a vision for the Three Village community’s de facto Main Street known as Route 25A. He and his classmates brought that vision to his neighbors Monday night to show what a little dreaming can do for the North Shore’s future. “Our community could look like this,” Fusco said in front of a projected rendering of a reinvented Route 25A, complete with greenhouse spaces, apartment housing, environmentally friendly landscaping and more. “We’ve come up with ways to improve safety, aesthetics and, most importantly, functionality.” Fusco and about a dozen other Stony Brook University students presented at the Setauket Neighborhood House on Monday evening as part of a final project for Professor

Stony Brook university professor dr. Marc Fasanella shares his students’ visions at a meeting Monday night.

Marc Fasanella’s ecological art, architecture and design class under the college’s sustainability studies program. The conversation, “Keeping a Sense of Place in the Three Villages,” involved four students presenting PowerPoint slides showing off their visions of reborn Setauket and Stony Brook communities, utilizing existing infrastructure to help employ ecologically-friendly additions and make Three Village a community that retains young people. “We looked at this as a tremendous opportunity for our

students and for the community moving forward,” Fasanella said. “Are we dreaming? Of course we’re dreaming.” The class built off the work of last year’s students, who brainstormed ways to bridge the gap created by the railroad tracks that separate the university from the greater Three Village community. This year’s proposals were met with great praise from residents, civic leaders and officials in attendance Monday. The ideas were bold, including anything from pulling buildings closer to the 25A curbside to make way for

a greater “Main Street” feel to constructing a “green” multitiered parking garage near the train station for both retail space and commuter parking. Shawn Nuzzo, president of the Civic Association of the Setaukets and Stony Brook, applauded the students for daring the community to take a different look at the future of Three Village. His group helped to sponsor the event, alongside the Three Village Community Trust. In an interview, Nuzzo said the Route 25A corridor, espe25A continued on page A14

Convicted Stony Brook home invasion rapist sentenced By Phil corSo

The East Moriches man convicted of raping and sodomizing a woman in Stony Brook was sentenced to 25 years in prison on Thursday at Suffolk County Criminal Court in Riverhead, the district attorney said. Patrick O’Sullivan, 23, pleaded guilty to charges of rape, criminal sexual act, burglary, sexual abuse and conspiracy in relation to the Nov. 20, 2012 incident, at a residence where his victim was house-sitting.

Town saw the signs, then removed them

brookhaven Town announced on Monday that workers had removed more than 1,500 illegally posted signs from rights-of-way and utility poles in the year since the town adopted stricter laws on posting signs. The town board banned all signs on public property last April in a unanimous move, after Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) introduced the tighter restriction. Romaine had announced the idea during his 2014 State of the Town address, saying the ban would help clean up the town and bring local laws into step with federal regulations. The outright ban on signs on town property replaced a rule previously on the books in chapter 57A of the town code that faced a court challenge from a Mount Sinai business owner, who al-

leged it favored commercial speech over noncommercial speech. brookhaven Town adopted its new regulations while that case was working its way through the courts, although the new York State Appellate court ruled in favor of the town in December. The new code eliminated a requirement to notify violators before an illegal sign is removed. Romaine and a few other town board members visited the brookhaven landfill recently to mark the one-year anniversary of the new sign code and celebrate the town’s waste management department removing more than 1,500 illegal signs since the law’s enactment. Violators of the town sign code face a $250 fine. — Elana GloWaTz

Chabad at Stony Brook breaks new ground By BarBara Donlon

The North Shore Jewish community is one step closer to getting its forever home as the groundbreaking ceremony for its new center took root in Stony Brook on Thursday evening. Rabbi Chaim and his wife Rivkie Grossbaum addressed the eager crowd at the ceremony at R.C. Murphy Junior High School to mark the new Merrin Chabad Jewish Center at Stony Brook, named after Edward and Vivian Merrin, who donated $1 million to the center. “Our wandering has come to an end,” Chaim Grossbaum said at the ceremony last week. “The Merrin Chabad Jewish Center is the answer.” Since acquiring its first space at the Lake Grove Jewish Center in 1990, Chabad at Stony Brook has spent much of its last 25 years wondering where it would offer its services. The growing Jewish community was hard to fit in the current center, and it often relied on rental space to get the job done, Grossbaum said. The current space can fit roughly 80 people, far less than the 400 families Chabad at Stony Brook serves. The new center, now in phase two of the $5.5 million four-phase project, will be able to accommodate far more families once it is completed, he said.

The new center will have a banquet room, a gym, mikvah and spa, a library, a pool, a santuary and more. The building is expected to open in the summer of 2016, the group said. “It will pretty much be multiuse in many fashions for the several programs we service the community with,” Grossbaum said in a phone interview. The center will offer Hebrew school, preschool, summer camp and other school programs. According to layout plans, there will be five preschool rooms and two regular classrooms. The new center will be right in the heart of the Three Village community it serves, Grossbaum said. The center will also have a hospitality suite for the Jewish community taking care of sick loved ones at Stony Brook University Hospital, the group said. The rabbi said he is hoping the center attracts new families to help Chabad at Stony Brook grow exponentially. “We want to give them reasons to want to go,” Grossbaum said. “It’s hard to create atmosphere in a rental space.” The rabbi highlighted many of the difficulties the group experienced while going from place to place over the last 25 years. He said the center would help expand on everything they currently offer to enhance services. Sheila Skolnick, an attendee at

Chabad at Stony Brook, said the center’s kind and welcoming atmosphere would draw many people into the new center. Skolnick along with many others said she is eagerly waiting for the new center to be built. “The Merrin Center will be our place and we’ll know where to go,” Skolnick said. “It’s really a place for Jews to congregate from all over.” Construction of the new center is expected to begin shortly. Kevin Harney of Stalco Construction is leading the project and John Tsunis of Gold Coast Bank is financing it.

County strengthens domestic violence safeguards By Phil Corso

The county’s proactive push to empower victims of domestic violence reached another milestone on Tuesday when the Legislature unanimously approved a pilot program that would slap ankle bracelets on offenders under an order of protection. County Legislator Kara Hahn (DSetauket) ignited the domestic violence discussion last month when the county approved her legislation providing law enforcement and victims with danger assessment tools that identify highrisk offenders. Her efforts turned another corner with the approval of Tuesday’s legislation in what she said was a multi-faceted approach toward making Suffolk’s domestic violence policy stronger than it’s ever been. The latest pieces of legislation make Global Positioning System technology available for electronic monitoring of those in the family and criminal court systems subject to a “stay away” order of protection — which is more restrictive than a “refrain from” order — and pose a continuing threat to the safety of a victim or their children, Hahn said. “This has been something I’ve wanted to work on since getting here,” said Hahn, whose personal experience as a victim of domestic violence brings the issue to the

top of her list of priorities. “One of the things that was important to me was dealing with orders of protection. I had an order of protection and it’s very frightening — and I’ve heard over and over again over the years — that it’s just a piece of paper with no ability to truly protect the victim. That’s what I’m trying to fix.” Both bills were virtually replicas of one another, but were specific to criminal and family courts respectively. The county’s district attorney would acquire the GPS units and the offenders would have to cover the cost of monitoring, she said. Tom Spota, Suffolk County district attorney, threw his support behind Hahn’s initiative. “I have every confidence this pilot program will be successful in effectively protecting victims of domestic violence,” he said in a statement. In 2013 alone, the state division of criminal justice reported that there were more than 1,500 violations of orders of protection in the county. That statistic, coupled with the fact that domestic violence accounted for 21 percent of all violent victimizations nationwide from 2003 to 2012, was what spurred Hahn to bulk up her domestic violence agenda, she said. “In my experience as a federal prosecutor, GPS devices serve as a real deterrent,”

legislator Kara hahn, center, pitches the pieces of legislation that would employ GPs technology to keep offenders away from domestic violence victims in suffolk County.

said Tim Sini, assistant deputy Suffolk County executive. “In the moment of passion, an offender often thinks twice before reoffending when he knows he is being monitored by law enforcement.” The pilot program would provide the county with 30 new GPS devices to be used when judges assign offenders to an order of protection. The technology could be used in one of two ways — either tracking offenders so they

stay away from a victim’s home or jobs, or acting as proximity detectors and letting victims know if an offender is near them. The latter form of tracking would be optional for victims. “Having been someone who had an order of protection and was afraid that the offender would come, it gives you peace of mind as a victim knowing you could be alerted,” Hahn said. “If a victim doesn’t like it, they don’t have to [wear] it.”

Patriots push into playoffs as No. 6 seed Girls’ lacrosse

Ward Melville . . . . . . 14 Sachem North . . . . . . 6 By Bill landon

After a slow start, the Ward Melville girls’ lacrosse team kicked it into high gear to top Sachem North, 14-6, on the Patriots’ home turf Tuesday in their final game of the regular season. After a senior day celebration for the 13 girls graduating on the roster, Ward Melville went to work. Senior attack Samantha Nemirov dished one off to fellow classmate Alex Vignona, an attack and co-captain, who drove the ball home. Five minutes later, Ward Melville senior midfielder and cocaptain Kayla Purdy found the back of the cage unassisted, to help her team pull out in front, 2-0. Sachem North fired two straight shots to tie the game, but Ward Melville senior attack Katlyn Scarpinella, on a penalty play from the circle, faked a shot and flicked the ball over to Nemirov, who dumped it into the corner to help her team pull out in front, 3-2, to end the scoring in the first half. “We came out strong early in the game. but they had a lot of good looks at the cage and they really ran our defense well,” Ward Melville head coach Kerri Kilkenny said.

Flanagan to lead State Senate GOP Lawmaker says new responsibilities include rebuilding trust from public By BarBara Donlon

Suffolk County’s own state Sen. John Flanagan (REast Northport) has been elected to serve as temporary president and state Senate majority leader after former head Dean G. Skelos (R-Rockville Centre) resigned from the post on Monday. The Republican-led New York State Senate appointed Flanagan as its new leader amid the arrest of Skelos last week on federal corruption charges. The change in leadership comes after several Senate members pressured Skelos, a Long Islander who touts a more than 30-year tenure, to resign from his leadership position. Flanagan has been appointed to the temporary position of president and state Senate majority leader for the remainder of the 2015-16 term, according to a video from his swearing-in ceremony. “I am proud and humbled to have been chosen as temporary president and majority leader of the New York State Senate,” Flanagan said in a statement. “I thank my colleagues for the confidence they have placed in me. With this job comes a responsibility to lead and to listen, and to rebuild the public’s trust.” Flanagan, 54, has held the position of senator since 2002. Prior to joining the Senate, he was a member of the New York State Assembly for 15 years. State Sen. John A. DeFrancisco (R-Syracuse), who was vying for the majority position, spoke to Flanagan’s appointment on Monday and said there were no hard feelings. “I know he is not only a great senator, he’s a great man and I’m proud to move his nomination,” DeFrancisco said. Flanagan’s colleague, State Sen. Ken LaValle (RPort Jefferson) also lauded the move. “It gives me great joy, great pride to second the nomination of John Flanagan as our temporary president,” LaValle said. “John Flanagan has great intellect, great energy and he has a wonderful, wonderful demeanor that brings people together.” Many of Flanagan’s colleagues spoke highly of the new majority leader prior to his swearing-in ceremony that took place in Albany following the 32 ayes he received out of 63 senators present. “The Senate made the right decision by voting Sen. John Flanagan as the newest majority leader,” Assemblyman Chad Lupinacci (R-Melville) said in a statement. “Flanagan has a track record for getting things done in the Senate and working with lawmakers from both sides of the aisle.” After his swearing in, Flanagan thanked Skelos for his decades of service and accomplishing the enactment of Megan’s Law, a law that publicizes the whereabouts of sex offenders. “I have now had the good fortune of being in the Legislature for 29 years and I am proud to be in public service,” Flanagan said in a video from his swearing-in ceremony. “I spent 16 years in the Assembly in the minority, I’m now in my 13th year in the Senate, two of which [were] in the minority and I learned a lot being in both venues.”

With the help of their teachers, Michael Jantzen and Pamila Pahuja, the students had the chance to study a technology of interest and predict what that technology might be like 20 years from today using current scientific techniques. The students worked in two groups and both projects each earned honorable mention. Kelsey’s and Priya’s project examined advancements with a common drug used to combat Parkinson’s disease and the one completed by Varsha, Catherine and Kayla sought to create a watch to detect pollen for allergy sufferers.

They were married for 56 years, until Shirley passed away on May 24, 2008. They raised their three children, Scot, Jamey and Annie, in Setauket, where Bill resided until 2009, when he moved to an assisted living facility in Danbury, Conn. to be close to his daughter’s family. He worked as a risk insurance manager at various companies, retiring from Unisys Corporation in 1992 when he suffered a severe stroke.

Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Valerie Cartright (DPort Jefferson Station) sat attentively throughout the four students’ presentations and ended the meeting with encouraging words. She said she was working alongside Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) to enact a comprehensive Route 25A study, which will be one item discussed in a community forum on June 30 in East Setauket. “It’s our responsibility to engage and continue the visioning process,” she said, on behalf of civic leaders and lawmakers in the community. “We want to work on our ‘Main Street’ and put the community’s visions into planning.”

OPINION EDITORIAL

Praise for taking action now

still a complex issue, and we commend our representatives for not just standing by. The Suffolk County Legislature unanimously approved a pilot program on Tuesday that would provide 30 new GPS tracking devices for family court judges to assign to offenders with an order of protection against them. The program would also allow victims of domestic violence — if they so choose — to wear their own tracking devices so they may be alerted if an offender is near them. The legislation is the latest brought forth by Legislator Kara Hahn (DSetauket) and continues to strengthen county laws relating to domestic violence. While some may question the use of tracking devices, giving the discretion to judges allows us to evaluate each case on an individual basis. That would hopefully limit the GPS system to the most dangerous of-

If you haven’t yet read The Post and Courier’s “Till death do us part” series of stories on domestic violence in South Carolina, which won a Pulitzer Prize this year, you should. The opening paragraph sets the tone for the series with a shocking statistic: “More than 300 women were shot, stabbed, strangled, beaten, bludgeoned or burned to death over the past decade by men in South Carolina, dying at a rate of one every 12 days while the state does little to stem the carnage from domestic abuse.” It goes on to say that while “state officials have long lamented the high death toll for women, lawmakers have put little money into prevention programs and have resisted efforts to toughen penalties for abusers.” The piece is both disturbing and eye-opening, and while South Carolina is different from both New York and the smaller communities of Suffolk County, domestic violence is

fenders and prevent us from violating anyone’s constitutional rights. And 30 devices is a small number when looking at the bigger picture — in 2013, there were more than 1,500 violations of orders of protection in

Suffolk County. If assigned appropriately, carefully and conservatively, the devices could help give domestic violence victims a new sense of safety and freedom to live their lives.

A call for more investment in scientific research

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

ruce Stillman is still very determined even if he sounds frustrated. I interviewed the CEO of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory last week when the research institution released, for the first time, a set of numbers indicating the positive economic impact of CSHL on Long Island. While proud of an institution that has produced eight Nobel Prize winners, Stillman sounded a theme I hear regu-

larly when I interview scientists at CSHL, Brookhaven National Laboratory and Stony Brook University: The country isn’t investing enough in research. “The reduction in federal funding means we do have to support the institution through philanthropy more than we’ve been doing in the past,” Stillman said. “Hopefully, Congress will realize they should reverse the dramatic reduction in funding in the federal budgets. It doesn’t make any sense.” Indeed, investments in research around the country make sense on many levels. For starters, many of us have unfortunate direct experience with a deadly disease like cancer, which slowly tears through a person’s body. We have also witnessed friends who have demonstrated spectacular courage and determination in the face of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s or other neurodegenerative diseases. Inspired by our friends and neighbors, we walk, run or do triathlons and we spend time in church, synagogues and mosques

praying for them and for strangers battling the same affliction. Scientists aren’t just looking for ways to lessen the symptoms or ease the pain — they’re also working to find signs of the disease before they appear. Angelina Jolie raised awareness of the potential benefits of preventing problems when she elected to have several surgeries. As their doctors would rush to tell them, people shouldn’t have surgeries just because a famous actress did. Places like CSHL can provide the kind of knowledge that provides information that empowers informed decisions. “There’s a lot of misinformation on the Internet,” Stillman said. “What the scientific community is trying to do is to make sure the information about genomics and medicine is correct and [people aren’t relying on information] out there that is misleading.” Beyond the applied science part, however, researchers who are doing basic science often wind up making critical discoveries. By only funding those

projects that might have a direct impact on human health, can and will be too self-limiting. What we learn can and often does help us. On the other side of that scale, what we don’t know can’t have any impact. And then there’s the financial benefit. Research often has a multiplier effect, creating jobs, bringing in revenue and supporting the local economy. “Everybody knows, including politicians, that science is an economic driver,” Stillman said. “If you take away public research funding, you’re basically giving up.” Stillman said that what’s gone on in the last 15 years in the United States “bucks the trend since World War II, when the U.S. was invested and was a world leader in research.” Stillman himself, who was born in Australia, has won numerous awards and runs his own DNA lab, said he came to this country because of American leadership in research, but now “things are changing rapidly. People like me will not come to

The true gifts of friendship

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

t has been a revolving door at my house, which must mean it is truly spring. I don’t know about you, but as soon as the weather turns beautiful, my dearest friends shake the winter cobwebs out of their systems and call to see if they can visit. The number of calls increases with the rising temperature as we move into summer. I only slightly attribute that to my scintillating personality. I know the real impetus for visiting

is this beautiful place we live in. They all have bona fide reasons to come here. They have meetings, conferences, cultural events, doctor appointments, dentist appointments and so forth that bring them out from the big city or from other states, or even from the other coast. In the meantime, they get to enjoy the shoreline, the beaches, the docks, and the shops, restaurants and art galleries in the villages, and I get to enjoy them. They all bring me something. And I’m not talking about the candy, flowers or wine that are house gifts. They bring me stories about their lives in other places, about their children’s successes and their grandchildren’s brilliance. They bring me news of friends we have in common, so I can catch up on who is doing what. They bring me memories of places and events we’ve shared, for they are usually longtime friends and, therefore, witnesses to my life. And they bring me laughter about outrageous mo-

ments we have known and tears for those whom we have lost. Most knew my husband, even my father and mother and my brother and sister, all of whom are long gone from this world but who live on in our recollections and in the stories we exchange. And we worry together over friends who are not doing so well and about each other. We also plan for the future: plays we will get tickets for, meals we will share, museum exhibits that are not to be missed, concerts we will hear, perhaps even trips we will take together. At this time in our lives, we are free enough of familial responsibilities to dare make such plans. We talk of books we have read, movies we have enjoyed, and experiences we recommend. In so doing, we broaden each other’s lives. We even exchange the names and symbols of equities we have heard promising forecasts about and interesting personal interviews we have caught on television. We are often fear-

less enough to wade into political opinions, even revealing whether we had or had not voted for President Obama and how we think he is doing. Just mention the name Hillary, and the conversation is off and running for the next half hour. Lest you think we support only one party, Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush can also be part of the conversation. We cover the political waterfront. As the day goes on, we might even lay bare some of our worries or shortcomings, offering encouragement to each other in the process, recalling triumphs that belie the worries. We might share recipes, including the men among us, and we brag about all the vegetables we have eaten in the previous 24 hours and how we cooked them.

this country because there’ll be opportunities elsewhere.” CSHL, BNL, Stony Brook and LIJ are all huge economic benefits for Long Island, Stillman said. “Unless this gets reversed,” he warned, “we’ll be in trouble.” So, what will turn the tide? “There’ll come a time when one can’t ignore the government role in economic development,” he said. It’s happened before, he argues, as investments in research after World War II helped bring the U.S. out of debt. As a result future generations benefited enormously — and will do so again.

To pat myself on the back for a moment, I am pleased to have taught a small group of my traveling buddies how to recognize a Guernsey cow, which has orange and white markings, comes from one of the British Channel Islands and gives delicious milk rich in vitamin A. How do I know that? My father grew up on a dairy farm and shared that vital information with me, explaining how I could distinguish a Guernsey from a Jersey cow, which comes from another of the Channel Islands. How could we go through life not knowing that difference? So my friends are welcomed with clean sheets and morning coffee. Given all the above, it seems like the least I can do.
