With seven individu-als in the running for three open seats, this year’s race for the North-port-East Northport school board vows to be a spirited contest.

From a 22-year-old Northport man looking to flex his political mus-cles to a 15-year veteran school board member vying for his sixth term,

the slate spans a spec-trum of backgrounds and candidates tout a range of experiences.

“It’s going to be a party,” Stephen Walden-burg Jr., the long-serving board member who is seeking re-election said in a phone interview.

Three seats are open — those of board members David Badanes, James Maloney and Walden-burg. Badanes and

Waldenburg are running for re-election, while Ma-loney is not running, ac-cording to district clerk Beth Nystrom.

Other candidates running include for-mer school board mem-ber Tammie Topel, Josh Muno, Peter Mainetti, David Stein and Michael “Bruno” Brunone.

In interviews this week, the candidates dis-cussed issues including

the Long Island Power Authority’s (LIPA) liti-gation challenging the value of the Northport power plant — a lawsuit that if settled unfavorably could mean double-digit percentage increases in taxes for district resi-dents. Candidates also

discussed the recent green-lighting of full-day kindergarten next year and the board’s recent budget decision to nix the district’s visual arts chairperson position in next year’s budget.

Four run unopposed for Huntington school boardBy RoHma aBBas

The race for the Huntington school board this year will be cut-and-dry, as four individuals are running uncon-tested for four open seats on the school board.

Board President Emily Rogan and board members Xavier Palacios and Tom DiGiacomo are seeking re-election to new three-year terms on the board, as is newcomer Christine Biernacki, a

Halesite resident and president of the district’s PTA Council.

The four seats include those held by Rogan, Palacios and DiGiacomo, but also former Vice President Adam Spec-tor, who died after losing a battle with cancer last summer.

In interviews this week, candidates sounded off about what they’ve accom-plished and what they feel they could bring to the board in the next three years.

EAST NORTHPORT

114637

By Rohma aBBas

The Huntington Town Board hired an outside attorney on Tuesday to inves-tigate legal issues surrounding an East Northport rental property that Council-man Gene Cook (I) partially owns.

The board’s Democrats — Supervisor Frank Petrone, Councilwoman Susan Berland, Councilman Mark Cuthbert-son and Councilwoman Tracey Edwards — voted in favor of the move. Cook re-cused himself from the vote.

The resolution follows recent reports in two local newspapers, The Observer and The Long Islander, that focus on the Larkfield Road property Cook co-owns with attorney Josh Price and Hunting-ton real estate agent Tim Cavanaugh. The property, which contains five apart-ment units in one structure, was written up on a town code violation late last year stemming from work that was done on the site in October.

The property is in a single-family zon-ing district. However, the owners claim the house predates Huntington Town enacting a building and zoning code in 1934 and point to a 1997 town document indicating that. The document, known as a letter in lieu of a certificate of oc-cupancy, is issued to properties formed before the town began to issue those certificates. But the property has been

on the Department of Public Safety’s ra-dar for various issues, according to town files — most recently in October, over whether work done there had proper building permits. A town inspector told a previous owner that the occupancy document “does not designate use of the structure and that he must go to the [Zoning Board of Appeals] for the use of a five-family dwelling,” according to a town document.

At Tuesday night’s meeting, Cook la-beled the board’s appointing a special at-torney “political payback.” He also noted the town has not issued him a summons to appear in court on any charges. Cook, the board’s minority member who cau-cuses with the local GOP, is seeking re-election to his seat this year.

Meanwhile, Petrone, who proposed hiring the attorney with a second from Cuthbertson, said the town needed to hire outside counsel to look into the matter.

“The intent is to resolve this.”According to the resolution, the situ-

ation has “created a conflict which pre-cludes the town attorney’s office from investigating further and which requires recusal of the town attorney’s office.”

Petrone said that is to be expected when an investigation involves a board member.

“If there is a violation, or anything

that comes forward on a board member, we cannot really investigate the situation or even try to negotiate it out, because it’s a board member that really acts, votes on budgets and votes on the individuals that would be looked at for the solution to a problem,” he said to reporters after the meeting. “So you normally bring in someone from the outside, and that’s what this is for — bring someone in, bring them together, to hopefully resolve

whatever the issue is.”When reached on Wednesday, Price

said he felt the situation was politically motivated.

“This is truly an example of a munici-pality using taxpayer dollars to go after its political enemy for no other reason than that they’re trying to win an elec-tion this year and it offends me to the very core,” he said.

One of Long Island’s most prominant annual culinary events is featuring famous chefs and reviewers as a new addition for its 12th year.

Tonight, Thursday, April 23, the Lark-field in East Northport will be hosting A Taste of Long Island, from 6:30 to 10 p.m. This year, three celebrity chefs, 2013 “Mas-terChef” winner Luca Manfe, Rob Bur-meister from “Chopped” and “Cutthroat Kitchen” and “Hell’s Kitchen” contestant Barret Beyer, are going to be attending the event. Throughout the night, the chefs will be available to mingle and chat with the other attendees.

More than 25 restaurants have signed up and the number has been steadily grow-ing, including eateries like California Pizza Kitchen, The Crossroads Cafe, the original Fireside Caterers, Nisen Sushi and many more.

New to this year’s event, the entries from the participating restaurants will be divided into four categories: most creative dish, best table presentation, tastiest dish and people’s choice. The celebrity guests will judge the people’s choice category dur-ing the evening.

“There’s wine and beer tasting, there’s going to be entertainment music in every room and amazing raffle baskets,” said Lo-

riann Pineo, executive director of the East Northport Chamber of Commerce, the group organizing the event.

The proceeds from this event will be used to benefit important causes at groups such as Rotary International, Visiting Nurse Service and Hospice of Suffolk and the East Northport Chamber of Com-merce. Tickets are $75 each. They will be $85 at the door.

Call the East Northport Chamber of Commerce for your tickets at 631-261-3573.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) Does Not Need to Disrupt Your LifeAlmost one in every four women in the United States have some sort of pelvic floor disorder such as pelvic organ prolapse, and more women are likely to be affected as the population ages. Jennifer Hill, MD, a urologist specializing in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery at the Arthur Smith Institute for Urology, part of North Shore-LIJ Health System, discusses what you need to know about this condition.

What is pelvic organ prolapse (POP)?Pelvic organ prolapse refers to the prolapse (drooping) of any of the pelvic floor organs such as the bladder, uterus, vagina, small bowel or rectum. These organs are said to prolapse if they descend into or outside of the vaginal canal or anus.

Are there different types of POP?There are several different types of prolapse. These include:• Cystocele — a prolapse of the bladder into the vagina, the most common condition• Uterine prolapse — a prolapse of the uterus into the vaginal canal• Vaginal vault prolapse — prolapse of the vagina• Enterocele — small bowel prolapse• Rectocele — rectum prolapse

What are the risk factors?Risk factors for POP include difficult deliveries, a family his-tory of POP, obesity, advancing age, a prior hysterectomy and conditions that chronically increase intra-abdominal pressure such as asthma, chronic cough or constipation.

What are the symptoms?Many women do not have symptoms and do not require treatment. However, urinary and bowel urgency and fre-quency, vaginal bulging, and pelvic pain and pressure are all common symptoms of prolapse that may be very bothersome to the patient.

What treatments are available?Many women with POP can manage their symptoms conserva-tively with pelvic floor exercises to tighten and strengthen the pelvic floor, high-fiber diets to prevent constipation, reaching and maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding activities that stress the pelvic muscles, such as heavy lifting.

If conservative management fails, and the pain and discomfort are still present, you may want to consider having surgery for the condition. Often, more than one of these types of surgery are needed at the same time. The types of surgery available include:• Cystoscele repair — for bladder prolapse• Hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) — for uterine prolapse• Rectocele repair — repair of the rectum• Enterocele repair — repair of small bowel prolapsing into the vagina• Vaginal vault repair — suspension of the vaginal vault• Closure of the vagina — for severe procidentia (all pelvic organs protruding from the vagina)

If you or a loved one has symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse, call (516) 734-8500 today to make an appointment with one of our urologists in Suffolk County. For more information, visit NorthShoreLIJ.com/Smith.

A Huntington man who admitted to huffing an aerosol cleaner before getting be-hind the wheel on New Year’s Eve in 2013 and broadsiding a 63-year-old Commack woman’s car, ultimately killing her, was sen-tenced to four to 12 years in prison on Fri-day, according to the Suffolk County DA’s office.

State Supreme Court Justice John Collins sentenced James Murphy, 20, in Riverhead on April 17 after what DA spokesman Bob Clifford described in an email last week as an emotional courtroom scene. Family members of victim Herta Palma attended the sentencing.

Murphy pleaded guilty on Feb. 26 to sec-ond-degree manslaughter, second-degree reckless endangerment, reckless driving and leaving the scene of a fatal accident. He was remanded to the county jail following his February plea.

On the day of the fatal crash, Murphy was driving a Chevy Blazer north on Com-mack Road when he sideswiped one car and ran a red light at the intersection with Hauppauge Road, according to an April 16 statement from the DA’s office. Murphy’s SUV broadsided the Hyundai sedan Palma

was driving. Palma died soon after at Hun-tington Hospital.

District Attorney Thomas Spota said Murphy told cops at the scene of the crash in 2013, “I was driving the white Blazer. I’m not going to lie to you officer. I just inhaled a can of Dust Off and threw it in the back of my truck.”

He also told officers he took Xanax and smoked hash a couple of days earlier.

Clifford said Murphy told the court today that he made “bad choices.” And Murphy’s attorney, Christopher J. Cassar of Hunting-ton, said in an interview on Monday that his client was “very remorseful.”

“He indicated that when he gets out [of jail] he hopes to lecture men and women to the use of these types of inhalants, and buzzed driving is just as serious as drunk driving,” Cassar said.

Cassar said that Murphy was given an indeterminate sentence, which means a parole board will decide after some time when he will be released.

Clifford also said that Palma’s son, Joe Palma Jr., spoke to the court as well, say-ing, “As a family we have already been given our sentence. A life sentence of pain and grief from the loss of a mother taken much too soon for no good reason.”

“All of our lives have been forever altered. We will never be the same.”

Clifford said Herta Palma’s daughter-in-law, Mary, also spoke, saying that the vic-tim had visited her Commack home that afternoon, reminding the family to be safe on New Year’s Eve. Palma was staying home on New Year’s Eve because she lost a friend years ago in a drunk-driving crash.

“We actually spoke of it, obviously not knowing as she drove away that her life was going to be taken within nine minutes of her leaving my home,” she said, according to Clifford. “As she was pulling away, she was waving with her big smile at me, blow-ing kisses. … I hold on to that memory ev-ery day.”

In his statement, Spota called on the New York State Legislature to include intoxica-tive inhalants to current statutes that make driving under the influence of a drug illegal.

“It is well-established science that people who abuse inhalants experience intoxica-tion, muscle spasms, a loss of coordination,

hallucinations and impaired judgment — and it is also a fact that for many teenagers, inhalants provide a cheap and accessible alternative to alcohol,” he said. “It is time New York State treats inhalants as intoxi-cating substances so prosecutors can charge offenders with driving while impaired by drugs in the first degree.”

Local man sentenced for huffing before fatal crashHuntington man will serve 4 to 12 years in prison ‘As she was pulling away,

she was waving with her big smile at me, blowing kisses...I hold on to that memory every day.’

Stephen Waldenburg, Jr.Waldenburg said he’s running for many

reasons, but mainly to help newly appoint-ed Superintendent Robert Banzer transi-tion smoothly. Waldenburg has served on the board since 2000 and said he’s got some unfinished business, such as work-ing on the LIPA litigation and ensuring the arts program isn’t impacted by the loss of the chairperson position. Waldenburg voiced opposition to the move. “I’m very concerned about that. I kind of want to be here to make certain the program isn’t al-lowed to diminish at all.”

The veteran board member said he was instrumental in getting a robotics team established at the high school. He said he’s also got his eye on declining enrollments, which could prove to be “a very scary thing” for the district, particularly if buildings need to be closed.

Waldenburg works for American Tech-nical Ceramic in Huntington Station as a customer service manager.

Tammie TopelFormer school board trustee Topel is

looking to make a comebackThe Northport resident, who was on the

board up until last year, decided not to run again last year for personal and health rea-sons. If elected, she’d be interested in explor-ing cost savings in special education and working on the LIPA issue.

She said if she was on the school board she would have voted to axe the arts chairperson position as well, just based on numbers — most chairpeople at the district manage a de-partment of 40 or so teachers, while the arts chairperson was managing a department of about 16 teachers, mostly veterans.

“My heart is really in Northport, in the school district, and I just want to be there again.”

Topel is the director of two nonprof-its — K.i.d.s. Plus, which offers sports and therapeutic recreation programs for kids, and KIDS PLUS, which works with adults with disabilities.

Josh MunoThe youngest out of the pool of candi-

dates, Muno, 22, said he’s running because he feels the school board is “a little inactive on important issues.”

He’s critical of the Common Core Learn-ing Standards and said he felt the curricu-lum doesn’t allow children to expand on their passions.

“The state, I think, is really overstepping their boundaries for this.”

Muno questions the need for the number of assistant superintendents currently at the district.

A Suffolk County Community College student, Muno lives in Northport and was raised by his grandmother. He works as a site safety captain at the Northport Hess gas station.

David SteinStein is credited with successfully lobby-

ing the school board to bring about full-day kindergarten funding for next year’s bud-get. He started going to the meetings last year, interested in a state comptroller’s audit that claimed the district overestimated its expenses to the tune of millions over the course of several years.

“In short, I’m a big proponent of honest budgets. And I think that the prior admin-istration … became fairly adept at adopting budgets that were not entirely transparent.”

Stein said he feels the district’s been neglecting putting money into things it should, like its physical plant and sports fa-cilities. He thinks the district needs capital improvements. He’s also interested in see-ing school board term limits.

Stein is a retired New York City Police Department lieutenant.

Peter MainettiMainetti said he’s running because, “I’m

not happy with what the current board’s do-ing, quite simply.”

He said he was greatly disappointed by the school board’s decision to get rid of the arts chairperson position. He called it a “terrible decision.”

He said he doesn’t support the budget because he wants to send a message to the

Voters in the Huntington Public Library district overwhelmingly ap-proved an $8.9 million budget for next year that stays within a state-mandated cap on property tax levy increases.

Residents also elected a new li-brary trustee, Pat McKenna Bausch, knocking eight-year incumbent Har-riet Spitzer off the board.

In total, 423 voted in favor of the budget and 88 voted against it, according to Library Director Joanne Adam.

“I feel wonderful,” Adam said in a

phone interview on Wednesday. “Of course, I’m happy that it passed. I think what makes me even more hap-py is the amount that it passed by.”

Bausch was the top vote-getter in a contest of three vying for one seat. Candidate Yvette Stone earned 53 votes and incumbent Spitzer amassed 174 votes.

Looking forward, Adam is most excited about renovations at the li-brary’s Main Street branch, which include reconfiguring some spaces and updating the building’s lighting, heating and ventilation.

“Redoing the space, I think, will kind of just give us a nice face-lift.”

Voters OK $8.9M library budgetMain Street Huntington branch will get face-lift

board that what they’re doing, particularly with the art and music program, is not ac-ceptable. He’s in favor of greater commu-nity involvement at board meetings and wants more board-back efforts of commu-nity outreach.

Mainetti is a baker training specialist at Panera Bread. He lives in East Northport.

David BadanesIn his first term, Badanes said he feels

he’s brought about positive changes on the board.

He said he was heavily involved in the interview process that ultimately resulted in hiring the new superintendent, slated to start this summer.

Badanes also mentioned that he’s one of two trustees charged with overseeing teacher contract negotiations, and to that end there’s been a tentative resolution that has to be approved by both sides. “I think I was a positive person in that role,” Badanes said.

Badanes is also a member of the policy committee. Looking ahead, he wants to focus on resolving the LIPA litigation is-

sue and keep offering a wide array of elec-tives and opportunities at the high school.

Badanes is an attorney who practices mostly matrimonial, some criminal and a little bit of real estate law.

Michael “Bruno” BrunoneBrunone, born and raised in North-

port, said he’s running because he wants to give back to a community about which he feels strongly.

Brunone said he believes the school board’s done a good job with the budget and he wants to step up to help out.

“I think what I could bring to the board is I’m a good team player, and when it comes down to a board, I feel it’s all about coalition building,” he said.

He said he supports the decision to get rid of the arts chairperson position, and he’s also supportive of the decision to create full-day kindergarten at the district. He wants to focus on “the triple A” if elected — athletics, academics and the arts.

Brunone is the vice president of Hun-tington-based Taglich Brothers.

A roomful of veterans and lawmakers gathered in Northport on Monday morn-ing to salute the signing of two new Suffolk County bills aimed at protecting veterans and the public against acts of stolen valor.

County Executive Steve Bellone (D) signed the legislation, which was spear-headed by Legislator William “Doc” Spencer (D-Centerport), into law. One of the bills makes it illegal for individuals to fraudulently represent themselves as deco-rated veterans to members of the public in order to solicit donations or obtain money, property or other benefits. The law makes it a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 and/or one year in prison.

The second law imposes stiffer require-ments on veteran nonprofit groups that solicit donations in Suffolk County. Such groups will be required to disseminate fi-nancial information to the public about how their fundraising dollars are being spent.

The laws were born out of a joint effort of many veterans, Spencer said, namely John Cooney, the commander of the Northport American Legion Post 694 and Tom Kehoe, former Northport Village Board member. Both men held Spencer’s “feet to the fire” to get the legislation drafted, particularly after what Cooney described as instances in Huntington Town in which individuals fraudulently represented themselves as vet-erans for personal gain.

“The needs of our veterans and the de-sire to give on part of our residents can cre-ate vulnerability, as organizations and in-dividuals have sought to take advantage, to profit from these circumstances,” Spencer told an audience of veterans at the North-port American Legion. “The two bills that we sign here today will work in conjunction to ensure our charitable dollars go where they should go — to support our veterans.”

A number of local leaders attended the conference, including Suffolk County Leg-islator Robert Trotta (R-Fort Salonga), Leg-islator Steve Stern (D-Dix Hills), Hunting-ton Town Supervisor Frank Petrone (D), Councilman Gene Cook (I), Northport Village Mayor George Doll and Northport Village Police Chief Ric Bruckenthal. The village police chief lost his son, Nathan Bruckenthal, a U.S. Coast Guardsman, who was killed in a terrorist-suicide bomb-

ing in Iraq 11 years ago this week.“Why are we here today?” Bellone, who

is also a veteran, said. “Because the no-tion that someone would step forward and put themselves out as a veteran of this country in order to raise money to ben-efit themselves is an absolute disgrace and it is something that we cannot under any circumstances tolerate. And it’s a disgrace when you have young men like [Nathan] Bruckenthal, who has family who paid the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country and you have men like that all across our country.”

Nonprofit groups seeking to solicit do-nations on behalf of veterans must register with the county’s Veterans Services Agency before doing so, and that process would be enhanced under this new legislation. Those groups would now have to submit informa-tion on how the funds they’ve raised bene-fited veterans, and they would need to pro-vide a slew of new documents, including federal and state tax returns and the names of the group’s board of directors. The Office of the Suffolk County Comptroller would work with the Veterans Services Agency

to review the information, and the agency would ultimately decide whether to ap-prove or deny an application.

Individuals would be barred from fraudulently representing records of mili-tary service, and anyone who makes men-tion of their military service must provide, upon demand, proof in the form of creden-tials or identification of their veteran status. The Veterans Services Agency can deny or

revoke a group’s registration certificate if it’s deemed that someone from the group violated the federal Stolen Valor Act.

“This is a great example of veterans com-ing together and working with our com-mitted legislators to provide and protect,” Cooney said. “To protect the valor and the integrity of those who have served. And to ensure that funds go to those veterans that legitimately need assistance.”

Educators, parents and students gath-ered outside state Sen. Ken LaValle’s Mount Sinai office Tuesday with one clear message: They won’t forget he voted “yes” on Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s budget when it’s their turn to vote in November 2016.

Nearly 100 people rallied in front of the North Country Road office of LaValle (R-Port Jefferson), holding signs letting the senator and the community know they were upset he voted in favor of a portion of the 2015-16 state budget that amended the teacher evaluation system, lengthened the time before teachers can gain tenure and created new designations for failing schools.

Beth Dimino, president of the Port Jefferson Station Teachers Association and a John F. Kennedy Middle School teacher, said her association and other groups coordinated the protest to show the senator they don’t take his vote lightly.

“The purpose of this rally is to remind Mr. LaValle that his vote in favor of Mr. Cuomo’s budget and anti-public educa-tion agenda will be remembered by the parents and taxpayers in the November elections,” Dimino said.

LaValle, who was in Albany at the time of the protest, was just re-elected to his 20th term in the Senate and will be up for election again next year.

He said in a statement Wednesday, “We improved on what the governor put in his budget proposal and I fully expect we will continue to fix the education piece, with the final result addressing parents and educators concerns.”

April Quiggle, a Port Jefferson parent, said she came out to show how disap-pointed she is in the senator she always supported.

“I feel betrayed by him,” Quiggle said. Not one person at the rally was without

a sign. Young children also held signs.Miller Place resident Erik Zalewski,

who teaches in the Middle Country school district, said LaValle and other politicians who voted in favor of the governor’s re-form sold out educators and kids.

“It seems money is more important than the children,” Zalewski said.

Lucille McKee, president of the Shore-ham-Wading River Teachers Associa-tion, joined in to let everyone know she is tired of non-educators making deci-sions about education.

Halfway through the rally supporters

broke out in a cheer: “Ken LaValle you let us down, Ken LaValle you let the students down, Ken LaValle we will not forget!”

Many parents at the picket said they tried numerous times to reach out to the senator by phone and email and never

heard back.Hundreds of cars drove by as every-

one protested on the corner of the road. Drivers honked, gave thumbs-up signs and cheered, letting the protesters know they supported them.

Emily RoganRogan, who is finishing her third

term on the board, said she’s running again because she wants to keep the dis-trict moving in the right direction. She said she and her colleagues have made decisions in the interest of student suc-cess — she shouted out a few, like rein-stating full-day kindergarten last year and reopening the Jack Abrams STEM Magnet School. There’s still work to be done, like improving the district’s food program, but overall, Rogan said the board is doing “real work,” and she wants to continue to be a part of that.

“We have been getting such terrific work done and I feel so good about the direction our district is heading,” she said. “For many, many years I did not feel like that. I kind of felt like I was banging my head against the wall.”

A large part of Huntington’s success

has to do with its leader, Superinten-dent Jim Polanksy, who Rogan spoke highly of. She also spoke strongly about Huntington, noting she was raised and educated in the district.

Christine BiernackiA newcomer, Biernacki said she’s

excited to join the board and continue to help a group of people she feels is al-ready doing the right things.

Biernacki is president of the district’s PTA Council. In that role, she has her finger on the pulse of what’s happening at all the schools in the district.

She is also a parent member in the district’s special education committee. A mother to a special needs child, Bi-ernacki said she feels she would bring a unique perspective to the board on special needs issues.

“We have a wonderful special educa-tion program, but there are some areas that, for example, it was discussed at the last board meeting, adding some more student support, like a psycholo-gist or social worker,” she said. “There’s such a need for that, not even in special

education but across the whole range of students at our district.”

Helping special needs students isn’t the only thing Biernacki is passionate about. She also doesn’t want to see class sizes increase.

Biernacki is an attorney who works from home.

Xavier PalaciosPalacios, an attorney with an office

in Huntington Station, wears many hats. He has leadership roles in various groups like Huntington Matters, an anti-crime Huntington Station group, and the Friends of Huntington Station Latin Quarter. He is running for a sec-ond, three-year term.

Palacios wants to see the district continue parental engagement pro-gram efforts — something that was funded this year by a federal grant. The district’s been able to engage parents in their children’s education through the program’s efforts. He also wants to see the district continue to cut costs in in-novative ways, such as building part-nerships with other school districts and

agencies.“I’d like to see us be able to find

more efficiencies in how we run the buildings themselves,” he said. Palacios also spoke of the reopening of the Jack Abrams building and reinstating full-day kindergarten as big accomplish-ments.

Tom DiGiacomoDiGiacomo grew up in Huntington

Station and has roots in the district that go back three generations. He’s running for a second, three-year term on the board.

The incumbent is the director of tech-nology sales for at Complete Packaging and Shipping Supplies.

Recently, DiGiacomo voted in favor of adding two new soccer teams to J. Taylor Finley Intermediate School. He’s also ex-pressed interest in the district exploring solar energy alternatives.

His experience includes project and budget management, finance and imple-menting technology solutions, according to his district bio.

He didn’t return calls seeking comment this week.

HUFSDContinued from page A2

The situation was brought up with the town’s ethics board at its annual meeting earlier this year. Northport

resident Sherry Pavone read from a let-ter saying the town’s ethics code needs to be enhanced with regard to town board members disclosing relation-ships with individuals they recom-mend for appointments to the town’s decision-making boards. She was speaking specifically about Price, who

Cook sought unsuccessfully to appoint to the town’s ZBA last year, and said Cook should have disclosed that he and Price were partners in a limited liabil-ity company that owns the multifamily structure before moving to make the appointment.

The board hired attorney Edward

Guardaro Jr., of the firm Kaufman, Borgeest & Ryan LLP, to look into the East Northport rental case. The town is paying $200 per hour out of its operat-ing budget.

Guardaro, who has worked with the town before, didn’t immediately return a call seeking comment.

In a battle for first place Tues-day evening, visiting Hunting-ton fell to Mount Sinai, 14-9, suf-fering its first loss of the season in a battle of undefeated teams.

Although Huntington’s se-nior attack Alyssa Amorison scored first at the 23:31 mark, off an assist from junior at-tack Katie Reilly, Mount Sinai was quick to counter with four straight goals. Senior attack and co-captain Sydney Pirreca scored the first and fourth, with Tyrell adding an assist on the first, to help the team to a 4-1 advantage.

The two teams traded goals, the goalkeepers traded saves and then traded two more goals. With the score 6-3, Huntington called a timeout to regroup.

“We need the draw,” Hunting-

ton head coach Kathy Wright told her players. “We need to get on those ground balls.”

Huntington moved senior midfielder Samantha Lynch to the faceoff in place of senior de-fender Heather Forster, and the switch proved to be successful.

The Blue Devils won the draw and with 6:55 remaining in the first half, sophomore midfielder Ryann Gaffney circled around the cage and passed to Lynch, who stood undefended at the front of the cage and knocked it into the right corner. A minute later, Lynch scored again off an assist from Reilly to pull within one, 6-5.

Thirty seconds later, Pirreca scored her hat trick goal. Af-ter a scrum at midfield for the ground ball off the draw, the se-nior attack was fouled, and jet-ted downfield for the score and a 7-5 lead heading into halftime.

“To me it’s not so much about being undefeated, it’s about the girls getting better every game,” Mount Sinai head coach Al Ber-tolone said. “Our mantra is one

game at a time, to win the day, and today we did a great job. I thought it was a back and forth game early and I think we’ve really been a great second-half team, locking them down.”

Mount Sinai junior mid-fielder Rebecca Lynch scored the first two goals of the half within a minute of each other to put her team up 9-5. Hunting-ton’s Gaffney scored next, unas-

sisted, after gaining possession at midfield.

The teams continued to trade possession of the 50/50 balls, and Tyrrell added another assist when she passed the ball from behind the net to freshman at-tack Camryn Harloff in front of the net for a 10-6 advantage.

“I feel pretty confident when I pass for shots,” Tyrrell said. “Even though I didn’t start off so well, I moved forward and got better as the game progressed.”

The Mustangs scored the next three goals, with Tyrrell having a part in all three, and Huntington called another timeout. During the break, Ber-tolone addressed his girls: “We need five seconds of focus to win the draw and get to goal, and don’t take any lapses down there on defense.”

The Blue Devils scored after the timeout, and Tyrrell scored her second goal of the game be-fore Huntington junior attack Emma DeGennaro sent a shot off a foul into the right corner of the net for the next score.

Amorison tacked on the final point of the game at 6:38. After that, the teams exchanged the ball as the defense stood strong on both ends to bring the final score to 14-9.

For Mount Sinai, Tyrrell fin-ished the game with two goals and five assists; Lynch and Pir-reca each tacked on a hat trick; and Harloff and senior mid-fielder Mary Ellen Carron add-ed two goals apiece.

Huntington’s Amorison fin-ished the game with a hat trick, Reilly added three assists, Gaff-ney scored a goal and an assist, Lynch and DeGennaro tacked on two goals apiece and freshman attack Emma Greenhill rounded out the scoring with a goal.

In net, senior goalkeeper Anna Tesoriero made seven saves, and junior goalkeeper Taylor Moreno finished with five.

The Blue Devils hosted Hauppauge on Wednesday, but results were not available by press time.

Huntington will travel to East Islip Friday, at 4:30 p.m.

Saving our swansTo ThE EdiTor:

Early last year, the department of Environmental Conservation released a plan to eliminate mute swans from New York state. Fol-lowing a barrage of public protest, mostly in the form of letters and emails, the dEC retracted its original proposal. Last month, a revised proposal was released, and the dEC awaits your response.

once again, your local Four harbors Audubon Society chapter is opposed to the plan, and we urge you to oppose it as well. Whereas the new proposal alludes to taking a “regional ap-proach,” its ultimate goal remains the same throughout the state: total elimination of mute swans.

An estimated 1,600 mute swans live in the Long island-metropol-itan NYC area, based on pre-win-ter counts last taken in 2011. The actual population after this severe winter may be much smaller.

This number has remained stable for nearly 30 years. Mute swans live in concert with other waterfowl, and are cherished by countless visitors to public and private parks throughout our area

here are the basics of the plan:1. The current population of an

estimated 2,200 mute swans in NYS will be reduced to 800, with minimal numbers in tidal areas. The majority of Long island’s swans live in tidal waters.

2. The populations will be reduced through several meth-ods. dEC methods of reduction include: live capture, euthanasia, and established hunting seasons on tidal water swans, termed “shooting of free-ranging swans.”

3. There will be no more cygnets — baby mute swans — in the state. All eggs laid by mute swans on Long island will be “addled,” or shaken to disrupt tissue attach-ment, and/or oiled — sprayed from overhead. The result? Embryos are permanently damaged, cease to develop, and/or embryos suffocate inside the oiled shell. Secondary consequences? oil leakage into tidal wetlands, local parks and ponds, and onto otherwise healthy feathered birds and furred animals.

4. Adult swans will be per-mitted in municipal parks and private areas, only under new terms of “regulated posses-sion.” According to these new dEC specifications, “Measures are needed to ensure that those swans do not reproduce or leave those areas.”

5. All municipal and private parks — for example, Avalon Park & Preserve in Stony Brook — will need to apply for dEC permits to keep adult swans under conditions that the adult swans be flightless; that is, clipped — a procedure that must be done more than once per year — or “pinioned.” Pinioning is surgical removal of bones at the wing joint, rendering the swan permanently flightless.

6. Maintaining flightless, nest-barren swans in licensed public/park areas “will require commitment of funding ... from those who wish to see non-lethal options used,” because dEC will use “non-lethal methods” only where “practical and timely.” in other words, private or munici-pal funding must be available to maintain any swans.

The dEC was criticized ex-tensively last year for failing to provide valid scientific evidence for removing mute swans from our area, and it failed in this

second report to do the same. The data used, both in the last report and in this one, is generally dated, non-regional, inconclusive and invalid. Conclusions regard-ing swan population impact were overwhelmingly speculative, rather than substantive.

Still dEC remains on the same course, to eliminate the mute swan from our state.

We will not be deterred. No part of this so-called new pro-posal is satisfactory. indeed, the practice of pinioning is revolting to say the least. Let’s be clear: Pinioning maims an otherwise healthy flight bird. To consider this cruel and inhumane practice as the preferred means of keeping adult swans in our region insults our sensibilities as citizens, and undermines the integrity of the dEC proposal.

Please do your part to save our swans. if nothing more, please write one sentence: “i oppose the dEC mute swan plan,” with “Swan Plan” in the subject line. Address your email to: [email protected]. The deadline is this Friday, April 24, so immediate action is required. Thank you.

EDITORIALWe can do better

You know you’re from Long island when …1. You drive your car everywhere, including

just up the road to the drug store or 7-Eleven. There is a car in your driveway or garage for every person in your house.

2. You water your lawn and plants even when it has recently rained because it’s on a timer and you just left it.

3. You pass at least one dead animal lying on the side of the road every day.

4. You have access to delicious foods imported from all over the country and the world.

5. You live in a terribly wasteful society.Earth day gives us time to reflect on what we

do every day that affects the environment, both here on Long island and the nation as a whole.

We burn up gas for every small trip we make, when we could walk or bike if we weren’t so rushed or lazy. We waste water by taking long showers or leaving the faucet on as we brush our teeth. We flush pills down the toilet or use a paper cup for coffee every morning or unnecessarily go through a ton of plastic shopping bags.

Almost all of us are guilty of at least one of these things, which all put strain on Mother Earth. But this is the only home we have — for now — so we should get our heads in the game.

Please join us in thinking about the impact of our everyday actions on the environment and make a commitment to cut out or reduce just one of those negative actions year-round — not just on a day like Earth day.

A small change blazes the trail for larger ones, so it’s a good place to start.

Twin experiments in space

In the course of a month, two events have occurred that, perhaps some time in the next

several decades, may help people make that incredibly long jour-ney to Mars.

First, Scott Kelly went up in space. OK, so, that’s not such a shocker. Kelly is an astronaut and that’s what astronauts do. What makes Kelly’s trip different, how-

Do we negotiate with Iran or not?

D. None of the aboveby DaNiel DuNaief

ever, is that he plans to spend an entire year at the International Space Station, setting an Ameri-can record for the longest time away from Earth.

Kelly’s identical twin Mark, a retired astronaut and husband of former Congresswoman Gabri-elle Giffords, will of course spend that same year on Earth. Having identical twins in two places for the same period of time presents an incredible opportunity. Mark is in reality the “control” in the experiment, giving NASA, doc-tors and anyone else interested in the effects of prolonged periods of time in space an opportunity to see how the two brothers react differently to different environ-ments. Identical twins present that rare opportunity to rule out the nature part of the nature-nur-ture dynamic.

Some day, the information NASA records from the Kelly twins will help us understand the kinds of preparations necessary to safeguard any would-be space

traveler from the harmful effects of higher radiation and no gravity for a journey to Mars that by cur-rent technology would take some 250 days. After all, our genes have evolved over thousands of years to life on Earth. Just be-cause we’ve figured out to send ourselves deep into space doesn’t mean we can suddenly fine-tune the gift of our biological systems the way we might raise a heat shield on a space module.

A month after Scott Kelly re-turned to the ISS, where he’d spent considerable time on pre-vious missions, a team of scien-tists, led by Javier Martin-Torres, a Spanish researcher who is a professor in Sweden and used to work in the United States at NASA, published a study based on a year’s worth of meteorologi-cal data from the Red Planet.

As it turns out, Martin-Torres and his team have determined it is highly likely Mars has liquid water — today. It’s not enough water to open a super-exclusive

pool club or to plant a couple of dozen grape trees to cultivate a deep-space vineyard for the elite and refined palates of the world’s wealthiest wine lovers.

The scientists recorded read-ings through the Mars rover Cu-riosity of water that likely evapo-rates during the Martian day and forms again during the cold night as perchlorate salts melt any fro-zen water vapor.

This study, Martin-Torres sug-gested, may have implications for planetary protection policies. The Committee on Space Research may look carefully at places where spacecraft couldn’t land on Mars out of concern that any vehicle might contaminate the planet by introducing new organisms.

The presence of water speaks to us because it makes up more than 60 percent of our own bod-ies. Water also is a key element to life on our blue planet, raising the question about whether life, even in the form of small microbes, could use it to survive.

This Martian water, however, isn’t exactly a refreshing stream. It’s probably up to three-and-a-half times as salty as the water in the Dead Sea, Martin-Torres said.

The saltiness, radiation and numerous other factors make that water inhospitable to life, even on a microbial scale.

“The conditions are terrible,” admitted Martin-Torres. Still, “it’s better to have water than not to have it.” Besides, while it’s likely that any life on Mars would struggle to survive in that water, “nature always surprises us.”

Our genes have evolved over

thousands of years to life on Earth.

To negotiate or not to ne-gotiate, that is the ques-tion. At least that is how

our mealtime conversations in the last week started on the subject of a possible treaty with Iran. It is a polarizing issue, and almost everyone I’ve shared a meal with has had a strong opinion on the matter.

“Don’t trust them. They can-not be held to any agreement they sign. Are we listening to what Su-preme Leader Khamenei is saying or do we think it’s all rhetoric to rally his right wing?”

Peace is an almost universal

yearning.

between you and me

by leah S. [email protected]

“We should definitely negotiate with them and at least try to post-pone the production of a bomb in that volatile part of the world. We’ll be able to know if they are reneging because we have satel-lites and Israel has spies all over the country,” is another perspective. “What harm can negotiations do?”

“What harm? What is it that brought the Iranians to the negoti-ation table to begin with? The eco-nomic sanctions are having a real effect on their country. They just want us to lift them and to achieve that, they will agree to anything for now,” comes the retort. And so the back-and-forth goes.

This time in our 21st century has been compared, rightly or wrongly, to Munich and the Nev-ille Chamberlain agreement with Hitler over the fate of Czecho-slovakia in 1938. Chamberlain was prime minister of the United Kingdom from 1937-40, as Hitler was ramping up his aggression, and he desperately wanted to keep peace and stability within Europe. To that end, he is widely remem-bered for his attempt at appease-ment of Hitler with the Munich Agreement that both men signed.

Chamberlain had worked hard to get that treaty, traveling to Ger-many three times to meet with the dictator before bringing back that paper, along with the words, “peace for our time.” Although Czechoslovakia was effectively sacrificed in the deal, most of the British population, including King George VI and Queen Eliza-beth, were ecstatically happy that Chamberlain had brought at least the possibility of peace to them.

One who objected strenu-ously was, we know, Winston Churchill, who declared that England had been offered a choice between war and shame at Munich. She had chosen shame, he continued, and will get war. Indeed, Churchill felt that by Chamberlain’s drift and sur-render to Hitler’s territorial de-mands, the prime minister had almost fatally delayed the need for Britain to arm and to pull together European allies. Cham-berlain had also seemed to Hit-ler as being weak. “Our enemies are small worms,” Hitler later scoffed. “I saw them at Munich.”

Peace is an almost universal yearning; only aggressors want

war. Can we condemn Cham-berlain for striving to guarantee peace — or President Obama for that matter? While the world stage is not exactly the same now as in 1938, we know that Iran has fueled proxy wars in an aggres-sive attempt to increase its power in the Middle East. Saudi Arabia had launched bombing missions to push back Iran, and the United States has moved ships off the Ye-men coast in an attempt to thwart arms shipments getting into ter-rorists’ hands. Overhanging the horror of slaughter and brutality is the real prospect that Iran is on the threshold of developing a game-changing atom bomb, much as Germany was during World War II.

When von Ribbentrop, Hit-ler’s foreign minister, objected to the Munich Agreement that Hit-ler had signed, pledging no fur-ther hostilities once he annexed Czechoslovakia’s Sudetenland, Hitler responded with, “Oh don’t take it so seriously. That piece of paper is of no further significance whatever.” Now as U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry lays out the terms of a possible agreement

from the negotiations, Khamenei has stopped short of endorsing them. When Chamberlain was admonished by Churchill to arm Britain in the face of coming war, the prime minister refused to do so wholeheartedly because he feared that Hitler would think he was walking away from the Mu-nich accord.

Yes, let’s negotiate. And let’s remember the key to any suc-cessful pullback is President Ronald Reagan’s famous line: “Trust, but verify.”

Let’s also remember that we broke the back of the Soviet Union by winning an economic war, de-spite the fact that both sides had the bomb. The Iranians are at the negotiating table because the eco-nomic sanctions are hurting — or like Hitler, they are merely stalling for time. Finally, we have learned what Chamberlain did not: That a well-armed and advanced nation is the best deterrent to war.
