Shalom Scouts 

The Sinai Reform Temple of Bay Shore celebrated Scout Shabbat on Feb. 5 in honor of Scout Month. This event was open to all Scouts. In attendance were Boy Scouts, Girl 

Scouts and Brownies from our community, many of whom participated in the service. The Scout Shabbat was led by Rabbi Emily Losben-Ostrov and Bruce Streger, a representative 

from the Suffolk County Jewish Committee on Scouting. All Scouts who were in uniform received a certificate and a commemorative patch for their participation and 

afterwards enjoyed refreshments while they socialized. 

Seeking to engage everyone in nature 

Seatuck looks to open its headquarters to the public 

By JEFFREY BESSEN 

ISLIP — More than 40 years after an idea to establish an 

“inviolate sanctuary” for birds and other wildlife took hold 

the Seatuck Environmental Association is now ensconced 

in the Scully Estate under the aegis of Suffolk County. 

Seatuck initially celebrated an agreement between the 

nonprofit organization and the county three years ago— 

three years after Suffolk purchased the 69.5-acre estate 

off of 550 Bayview Avenue—with a cocktail party at Capt. 

Bill’s in Bay Shore. 

In a little less swanky atmosphere (but no less interesting), 

the now 21-year-old Seatuck opened its doors to the 

media last Thursday and plans on opening the newly created 

nature center with a ceremonial ribbon cutting on 

April 22, and two days later to the general public. 

“We are looking to do more public programs and build 

a sense of community,” said Seatuck Executive Director 

Enrico Nardone, who noted one of the bigger problems 

his group has is that despite significant local publicity, a 

majority of people do not know where they are located 

since Seatuck did not have a permanent home. 

Seatuck is now south down Bayview Avenue off of Main 

Street, immediately in front of Islip Town Hall. Heading 

south, one passes several blocks of residences before hitting 

a more rural environment. 

The Scully structure is a 1917-built French-style mansion 

designed by well-known architect Grosvenor Atterbury 

that boasts a fireplace and balcony in every room. 

This property also features wildlife native to Long Island 

and a place where people who are passionate and knowledgeable 

about nature can share their zeal and information 

with children and adults. 

Seatuck is planning to conduct an assortment of programs 

that, hopefully, will engage families. Nardone termed 

Seatuck’s three-pronged mission as: citizen science, where 

everybody can participate in data collection; policy work, 

ensuring that nature is protected through laws and education 

that broadens the minds of participants; and exposing 

children to the natural world. 

The “Eco-Carnival,” planned for April 24, is an example of 

that education and differs from other Earth Day events where 

booths are set up to publicize organizations and issues. Nardone 

said there would instead be educational activities and 

entertaining family events to get “kids engaged in nature.” 

What got fishery scientist Brian Kelder, who is in his 

third year with Seatuck, engaged was a college internship

Student raises money and completes school service project 

By LIZ FINNEGAN 


ISLIP — With all the snow that has fallen this winter, the removal 

of the snow and paying for it are major parts of the town’s 

budgeting process. Though the town budgets by year and there 

are no specific figures for this winter season, according to Commissioner 

of the Department of Public Works Rich Baker, here 

are some numbers. 

In 2009, the town budgeted $2.325 million for snow removal 

and $2.38 million was spent—going over budget by $55,000— 

due to the December blizzard, Baker noted. 

For this year, $2.325 million was again budgeted and currently 

$1.2 million was spent leaving $1.125 million. “While we can’t 

predict next October to December’s weather, we are not, at this 

point, on pace to be over budget,” Baker said. 

The town has been applying a brine mix since the second week 

of January to melt the snow and ice, and that appears to be saving 

time and money. “It is very hard to state how much money 

we may have saved in this short time,” Baker said. “We can state 

unequivocally that the roads in the town of Islip are much safer 

and less slippery since we started using brine.” 

BRIGHTWATERS — When Bay Shore High School junior 

Connor Duddy wanted to raise money for the Wounded Warrior 

Project (WWP); no one anticipated what the teenager had 

in mind. 

Duddy, who is enrolled in the high school’s International Baccalaureate 

(IB), decided he’d ask a few close friends to camp 

out with him overnight last weekend to raise funds for that good 

cause. The project would be part of his CAS (Creativity, Action 

and Service) requirement for all Baccalaureate students. 

The IB program, which was instituted in Bay Shore High 

School this year, has been gaining popularity in recent years. 

The interdisciplinary curriculum, which is uniform around the 

world, encourages global, intercultural understanding and respect 

through education. 

High School guidance counselor Viki Zimolka, who is the CAS 

coordinator, said all of the current 28 IB students in the school 

must eventually complete projects that meet all of the components 

of CAS in order to receive the special IB diploma. “Since 

he’s donating the money [raised] to WWP, it’s the perfect CAS 

project,” she said. 

When Duddy began thinking about the CAS project, his 

thoughts turned to American soldiers fighting overseas. “I’d 

heard about WWP doing things on Long Island and so I thought 

doing this [project] would be more meaningful,” he said. 

WWP is a not-for-profit organization that was started by several 

individuals who were moved by the stories they had heard about 

injured soldiers returning from the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. 

Their mission is to raise public awareness to the plight of 

wounded veterans while raising the funds to support the services 

and programs that will meet their needs. 

“I’d heard that the average, nighttime winter temperature in Afghanistan 

was 19 degrees,” Duddy said. “So I thought [camping 

out at night] would be a way to show solidarity for our troops.” 

First, with the help of his father, Kevin, Duddy was able to receive 

permission to use Walker Park in Brightwaters as the site 

for his overnight camp-out on the beach. 

He then garnered the help of four good friends to do it with 

him, two of who are also in the IB program. Finally, he asked 

family, friends and neighbors to sponsor him with pledges. In the 

end he was able to raise $2,300. 

Around 9 p.m. Saturday, the five teenage boys arrived at the 

beach to begin their adventure. A few things had to be taken care 

of before pitching their tent, though. “We shoveled snow out of 

the way,” Duddy said. 

With the tent up and sleeping bags in place, they warmed themselves 

around a campfire; wearing multiple layers of clothing 

helped keep out the chilly 30-ish degree temperatures, too. 

Well, almost. “The wind [off the water] wasn’t too bad,” said 

camper William Jockers. Duddy concurred, adding, “I wouldn’t 

want to do it every night, though.” 

The kids chatted with friends who stopped by for a brief visit and 

roasted marshmallows until they were ready to turn in. “It all went 

nicely,” Duddy said regarding the otherwise uneventful night. 

Jockers said waking up on the beach even in the winter has 

many advantages. “Looking out at the bay in the morning was a 

cool thing to do,” he noted. 

The campsite was dismantled and cleared by 8:30 a.m. on Sunday. 

Duddy said he was pleased with how the project turned out. 

“I didn’t expect to raise as much money as I did. I’m really happy 

I did that,” he said. ■ 

Town snow removal budgeting 

Baker noted that for storms of two to three inches or less, applying 

brine before the snowfall can largely eliminate the need 

to plow at all, as the snow melts on contact with the roads. 

Plowing is still necessary for larger storms, but by applying 

the brine solution on the roads the snow comes up much easier, 

usually leaving only asphalt. Prior practice required plowing followed 

by salting and sanding to remove the layer of ice, which 

then needed to be swept up after the storm to remove the sand. 

“By using brine, we can lessen the usage of salt and almost eliminate 

the need for sand,” Baker said. “For example, in the storm 

that hit in early February, we brined over 800 miles of road.” 

Islip has used as much as 8,000 tons of salt, but only 150 

tons of this salt was used to make 150,000 gallons of brine. 

The town is able to use less manpower to plow, salt and sand, 

and clean up the sand, saving a significant amount of money 

on salt purchased. 

“The ultimate focus of our brine program, as with all of our 

snow removal operations, is to ensure the safety of Islip residents 

on the roads,” Baker said. “The pre-treatment of roads 

with brine solution has and will continue to drastically reduce 

the presence of ice on the roads during and after a storm.” ■

Not playing around with drinking games 

New law seeks to ban sale to minors 


EAST ISLIP — In the wake of a constituent’s 

complaint and efforts by County 

Legislator Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) to 

have a couple of local retail stores relocate 

or remove inappropriate merchandise, 

the lawmaker has proposed a new 

measure. 

Cilmi’s resolution, which he laid on the 

table of the legislature on Tuesday, calls 

for banning the sale of drinking games to 

minors. 

The concept behind the planned legislation, 

according to Cilmi, himself a businessman, 

is not to make it more difficult 

for retailers to generate revenue, but to do 

it in such a way that games that promote 

binge and possibly underage drinking are 

not accessible to minors. 

“My main thrust is to first of all to prevent 

sale of these drinking games to minors, and 

send a message to retailers that they are 

engaged to sell products that aid in the degeneration 

in children and [these children] 

are dying as a result,” Cilmi said. 

Based on information included in the 

proposed bill, young people who begin 

drinking in their early teenage years are 

four times more likely to become alcohol 

dependent compared to those who begin 

drinking at the current legal age of 21. 

And that is one of the reasons for the bill. 

Since those under 21 cannot legally drink, 

they should not be able to purchase games 

that promote drinking. 

However, this appears to fly in the face of 

anecdotal evidence that Cilmi learned from 

By EMILY PORTOGHESE 

County Legislator Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) introduced legislation to ban the sale of 

drinking games to minors. 

multiple sets of local high school students, 

who estimated that 80 percent of their 

peers drink. 

The games targeted include video games 

and board games that have become so 

popular that there is even a “World Series 

of Beer Pong.” 

Kevin Mahoney, an attorney for New Jersey-based 

Spencer’s Gifts, one of the stores 

in the South Shore Mall targeted by Cilmi, 

said, “I certainly agree with the sentiment 

behind discouraging underage drinking 

and binge drinking.” 

However, Mahoney did note that the 

games do not come with alcohol and thinks 

that the propose measure is unnecessary 

Heroin testing made easy 

Applying home kits and peer pressure to a growing problem 

as underage drinking is already addressed 

by existing laws. 

“Young people cannot access alcohol and 

if they are, a crime is being committed,” 

Mahoney said. 

Though the Bay Shore Spencer’s did previously 

move the drug related books that 

Cilmi pointed out from the front of the 

store to a less viewed area, the county legislature 

took exception to Mahoney’s view. 

“I would call his statement intellectually 

dishonest and disingenuous. Kids can find 

their own ways to drink and play games 

and they always have. That doesn’t mean 

we should glorify and support it and sell 

games that are meant to facilitate binge 

drinking by minors,” Cilmi said. 

Eddie Davis, the owner of Hicksvillebased 

Gadgets & Gizmos, seemed to be 

more apologetic in his stance, noting that 

he also is a father. 

“We adhere to mall rules and they want 

it to be family-friendly. We try to keep it 

light,” said Davis, who added that they did 

move the adult-themed games to a different 

section of the store and removed the drug 

paraphernalia from the Bay Shore store as 

previously noted by Cilmi. 

The first-year county legislator, also a father 

of two, is very aware of how difficult it 

is to navigate children through the maze of 

dangers they face, but noted it is a responsibility 

that must be undertaken. 

“How many young people do we have to 

find on the side of the road dead who overdosed 

or drank themselves to death before 

we actually do something?” asked Cilmi, alluding 

to the current heroin epidemic. ■ 

HAUPPAUGE — Legislator Ricardo 

Montano (D-Brentwood) joined efforts 

with Moloney Funeral Homes and others to 

offer free heroin testing kits for concerned 

parents throughout Suffolk County. 

Numerous school districts, elected officials 

and parents have held and attended 

forums on the topic in recent months, and 

Montano is the most recent elected official 

to address the issue 

Also present at the event were Jeffrey 

Frayler, president of the Suffolk County 

Police Benevolent Association; Jeffrey 

Reynolds, executive director, Long Island 

Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence; 

and Nick Nardoni, father of Michelle 

Nardoni, who died of a heroin overdose on 

May 31, 2008. 

While people may be aware that heroin 

is a highly addictive and dangerous illegal 

substance, it should be noted that the 

potency of the drug has increased from 15 

to 20 percent pure in the 1960s and ’70s 

to between 80 and 90 percent pure today, 

making it easier to smoke, snort or inject 

than ever before, Frayler noted. 

In addition, heroin-related deaths in Suffolk 

County now exceed deaths caused 

by car accidents, and drug arrests have 

also increased, Frayler noted. The PBA 

president said, “Heroin is destroying our 

greatest resource, our children.” 

As owners of Moloney Funeral Homes, 

the Moloney brothers see firsthand the 

heartache families go through when losing 

a loved one to drugs. Heroin test kits 

are available at all six Moloney Funeral 

Home locations throughout Suffolk, and 

all a parent has to do to obtain one is 

ask. 

Several dozen have been delivered to 

each of the six locations, and 50 percent 

are already gone, Moloney noted. “We feel 

County Legislator Ricardo Montano (D-Brentwood) held a press conference last week to announce free heroin testing kits for Long 

Island adolescents. Kits are available at Moloney Funeral Homes and Montano’s office. Pictured are: Peter Moloney; Nick Nardoni; 

Montano; Jeffrey Frayler, president of the Suffolk County Police Benevolent Association; and Jeffrey Reynolds, executive director, Long 

Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence. 

it’s our way of contributing,” Moloney said 

about offering the kits, which include one 

immediate test and an order form for a second 

test. “We want to help the families,” he 

said. Kits are also available at Montano’s 

office located in the courthouse Corporate 

Center at 320 Carleton Avenue, Suite 4300 

in Central Islip. 

Though drug tests do not negate the need 

for parents to have a serious talk with 

their children about drugs, it can make it 

easier to broach the subject while possibly 

deterring teenagers considering trying the 

dangerous drug. 

Reynolds emphasized talking to your 

children about drugs is something parents 

must do early on, and addiction is one of 

the only diseases in which there is such a 

strong sense of denial from all sides. 

Drug testing not only allows the parents 

to keep a closer eye on their children, but 

it gives kids yet another reason to not try 

heroin. “Kids are susceptible to peer pressure. 

This (testing) gives them the perfect 

out, they can say ‘my parents test me, I 

can’t do it,’” Reynolds said. 

Drug addiction is a difficult problem 

for the abuser and their family to accept, 

Montano noted, but programs are available, 

and besides prevention, treatment is 

the next step. 

“As kids become more aware of the dangers 

of drugs, they will realize their parents 

are working for them, not against them,” 

Montano said. The legislator also noted 

the last person they want on the scene is a

SENIOR LIVING 2010 

What is Elder Law? 

ANSWER: Elder law is a fairly new 

and unknown area of the law. As baby 

boomers and their parents age, they 

are living longer and often living with 

chronic medical conditions. The cost 

of long-term care continues to spiral 

out of control and families struggle 

to meet the needs of their aging members. 

Elder Law attorneys must be familiar 

with multiple areas of the law— 

contract law, estate planning, trusts 

and estate administration, Medicare, 

Medicaid, health care insurance regulations, 

Public Health Law, Mental 

Hygiene Law, the Internal Revenue 

Code and state and local tax issues. 

In most instances, the issues that we 

deal with are fact sensitive and the 

clients must be coaxed to give us the 

information that we need to formulate 

the elder law plan. Sometimes a client 

will call the office and be shocked to 

learn that we don’t give legal advice 

over the phone. In fact, some callers 

are surprised to learn that secretaries 

and paralegals can’t answer their legal 

questions. 

The various disciplines that make 

up the elder law practice are in a 

constant state of flux. As a result, 

it requires the elder law attorney to 

spend a great deal of time reading 

current journals and cases and taking 

continuing legal education courses. 

In addition, many elder law attorneys 

meet in informal study groups to read, 

understand and strategize. 

As the facts change, there will likely 

be different solutions for each client. 

What works for one client may be 

totally inappropriate for another. For 

instance, in one day I see two different 

clients. Both clients are 86 years old, 

own their own homes and need longterm 

care. Client A has a daughter, 

age 55, and Client B has a niece, age 

55. Client A, on the eve of going into a 

nursing facility, is advised to transfer 

her home to her caretaker daughter, 

who lives with her and has lived with 

her for more than 2 years. The transfer 

does not make Client A ineligible for 

Medicaid. Client B cannot follow the 

same plan because her niece is not 

her child. There are no exceptions for 

transfers to caregiver nieces. However, 

after discussing this matter with 

Client B, I learn that the niece no longer 

works but collects social security 

disability. I advise Client B to transfer 

the house to a supplemental needs 

Caution is key for seniors 

returning to exercise 

trust for her disabled niece. The result 

is the same, the house is protected 

and both clients are eligible immediately 

for Medicaid to pay for their 

long-term care. On the other hand, the 

solution is very different. Remember, 

one size fits all is not the rule. Your 

elder law plan is fact sensitive and 

requires a careful review of the facts 

and circumstances. 

Since the recent change in the law, 

the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, 

I’ve had more clients tell me that they 

have been advised that you can no longer 

transfer assets and the look-back 

period is now 5 years, not 3. 

Unfortunately, that advice was not 

entirely accurate. There are still planning 

strategies that can be implemented. 

The change in law requires you to 

consult with an experienced elder law 

attorney, sooner rather than later, to 

best develop a plan to help address 

your family’s needs. Although you 

may incur a consultation fee, it will be 

money well spent as the knowledge 

and expertise that an experienced 

elder law attorney brings to the consultation 

is invaluable. ■

Despite reports of a nationwide obesity 

epidemic, much of the country has made 

exercise an important part of their daily 

routines. Though young people are aware 

of the long-term benefits of exercise, 

such as reducing the risk of heart disease, 

seniors can benefit greatly from daily 

exercise as well. 

In fact, many illnesses commonly faced 

by senior citizens can be combated 

effectively, though not entirely, if daily 

exercise is included. Exercise can help 

reduce the negative side effects of 

conditions such as osteoporosis, arthritis 

and even depression, each of which can 

appear as a person ages. 

Unlike beginning an exercise regimen 

when you’re young however, doing so as 

a senior involves a little more restriction 

and an honest appraisal of where you are 

with respect to fitness. For seniors about 

to start an exercise routine, a couple of 

things must be considered to ensure your 

success and safety. 

• Be honest: Diving right back into a heavy 

exercise routine is dangerous. Instead, be 

honest with yourself at the start. If you 

haven’t seen the inside of a gym in a long 

while, take things slowly. Make your daily 

routine short at first, for 10 to 15 minutes 

per day, and take regular breaks. 

• Be realistic: Choosing an exercise 

regimen that you won’t enjoy is impractical. 

While this is often something younger 

people with specific goals in mind can 

handle, seniors need to be realistic and 

choose a routine they’ll enjoy. You’re 

probably not entertaining the notion of 

athletic glory like younger people, so 

you’re far less likely to stick to a routine 

that’s not enjoyable. 

Once you’ve chosen your routine, there 

are certain steps to take that can ensure 

the routine won’t leave you licking your 

wounds or aching all over. 

• Stretch: Even professional athletes who 

earn their livings being physically active 

stretch on a daily basis. Stretching should 

be done before and after each workout. 

Low-intensity stretches that precede a 

workout will ready your body for the more 

strenuous work ahead and will also get 

your blood flowing. 

It’s important to stretch after you’ve 

worked out as well. Most people end their 

workouts with some cardiovascular work, 

be it walking or running on the treadmill 

or using the exercise bike. Once you’ve 

finished the more strenuous portion of 

your cardiovascular routine, cool down 

with a 1- or 2-minute walk on the treadmill 

or a couple of minutes of low-intensity 

cycling on the exercise bike. This allows 

your heart rate to return to normal. 

• Stay hydrated: Even if your exercise 

routine isn’t strenuous, and for many 

seniors it’s not, that doesn’t mean you’re 

not going to sweat. Replenish the fluids 

your body is going to lose through exercise 

by drinking water while you exercise. 

Dehydration is not only bad for your body, 

it’s also uncomfortable, often leading to 

muscle tightness and possibly stomach 

pains. 

• Take it easy: Once back in the swing of 

things, it’s still important for seniors to not 

go too hard during their workouts. Feelings 

of nausea, lightheadedness or dizziness 

indicate you’re going too hard. Again, 

seniors are at greater risk for injury and 

ailments than their younger counterparts, 

so exercise caution whenever exercising. ■


SENIOR LIVING 

Advantages to 55+ living 

Look around many of the suburban areas, 

and you are likely to find age-restricted 

communities catering to adults who have 

hit the magical age of 55. 

At this age, you may be thinking of 

retirement or are ready to put in a few 

more years on the job. What you may 

be looking for is a home that is less 

maintenance, affordable, meets your 

needs (instead of the needs of kids 

who have long left the nest) and offers 

convenience items all in one package. 

That is just what 55+ communities, also 

known in some places as “active adult” or 

“lifestyle communities,” offer. 

Forget preconceived notions about 

“senior living.” These are not nursing homes 

or assisted living facilities. They are simply 

subdevelopments that traditionally offer 

affordably priced living and amenities to an 

age-restricted group. Some communities 

will even allow individuals ages 18 and 

older to live in the homes, provided there 

is at least one other individual in residence 

who meets the age requirement. 

55+ housing offers many advantages to 

interested individuals: 

• Cost factor: Many 55+ homes are 

priced considerably lower than homes of 

similar sizes that are not in age-restricted 

communities. For individuals on a fixed 

salary or preparing for retirement, this 

feature alone can be a major advantage for 

purchase. 

• Proximity to friends and family: Active 

adult homes are cropping up in suburban 

areas all around the country. Their 

popularity and availability has grown as 

more baby boomers reach age 55. Because 

of this, individuals can still live close to 

friends and family—and continue all of their 

social visits—but have the convenience of 

adult living. 

• Amazing amenities: Active adult 

communities are more than just homes. 

They typically are built on a sprawling 

campus complete with clubhouse, pools, 

exercise rooms and nature trails. Most 

offer recreational activities such as craft 

classes, movie trips, card games and much 

more. 

• Desireable home designs: New homes 

are being built with open floor plans in a 

variety of styles. Many feature single-level 

living to eliminate the need for scaling 

steps. Energy efficient materials and 

many other features make these homes 

desireable and attractive. 

• Security and safety: Many communities 

are gated with announced visitors and 

have private security patrols. Some are 

located in close proximity to hospitals and 

other medical care in the event there is an 

emergency. 

• Social gatherings: It’s easy to meet 

friends of similar ages and like-minded 

interests in a 55+ development. 

• Transportation convenience: If you 

don’t like to drive, that’s taken care of in an 

active adult community. Transportation to 

stores, places of worship and even doctors’ 

appointments can be arranged, with costs 

generally covered in monthly association 

fees. 

• Maintenance-free: For those who want 

to forget about snow shoveling or lawn 

mowing, 55+ communities are perfect. 

Dues cover most exterior maintenance, 

such as snow removal, trash pick-up, lawn/ 

garden maintenance, pool care and general 

grounds maintenance. Depending upon the 

development and ownership of the home, 

interior repairs may also be covered. 

News reports suggest now is a good 

time to buy a home. If you are 55 years of 

age or older, now may be the right time to 

buy a home in an active adult community 

near you. ■ 

Who qualifies as a 

‘Baby Boomer’? 

The term “Baby Boomers” describes the generations of Americans born in the post- 

World War II “baby boom.” While some historians believe that Baby Boomers were born 

between 1946 and 1964, no consensus has ever been reached. In addition to the controversy 

surrounding the years in which the baby boom began and ended, there is also disagreement 

about whether those individuals born in the second half of the boom are actually members 

of another generation, which has been called “Generation Jones.” Under this rubric, for 

example, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush qualify as “Boomers,” while Barack Obama, born 

in 1961, would be considered a “Joneser.” ■

My lower denture has never fit very well. I hate 

having to continually use denture adhesive to 

hold it in, but I can’t afford a full mouth of dental 

implants. Is there another, less costly solution to my problem? 

A. 

Q. 

In my thirty years of practice, I have seen very few denture 

wearers whose lower jaw allowed a denture to fit as well as 

an upper one does. Because there is no palate on the lower, 

there is less area to gain suction. The typical lower denture is “successful” 

if it doesn’t rise up on its own. It can always be dislodged 

easily by the tongue or cheeks. These muscles must be trained by 

the wearer of a lower denture to keep the denture in place while 

chewing and speaking. 

The simplest and least costly way to secure a lower denture is 

to place as few as two implants in the lower jaw. Attachments can 

then be placed in the denture that allow it to snap firmly in place. In 

some cases, your existing lower denture can be used to fit these attachments. 

The result is a secure feeling that you wouldn’t believe. 

Not only will this implant-attached denture fit well but food is much 

less likely to get trapped below this denture because of its secure 

fit. If you would like to see a demonstration of how strong this fit 

can be, call our office for a consultation.

EDITORIAL 

Seatuck 

settles in 

At a time when families are feeling 

the pinch of the pocketbook due to the 

economy, the county has given residents 

a gift in the form of the Seatuck 

Environmental Association that seeks 

to be so much more than just an organization. 

Now ensconced on the 69.5-acre Scully 

Estate at 550 Bayview Avenue in Islip 

hamlet, this 21-year-old group is looking 

to open up nature to adults and children, 

while focusing on a three-pronged 

mission. 

That mission includes citizen science, 

where everyone can get involved 

in helping to collect data for a specific 

project. It also includes policy work to 

help ensure that nature and natural habitats 

can be protected. 

The third prong is education. And not 

only for adults who can be citizen scientists 

or who can advocate for or oppose 

legislation through the ballot box, but 

for the next generation of children. 

Programs and lectures are expected to 

be geared toward getting children outdoors 

and that is good from three perspectives: 

the children learn about the 

natural world; are active; and then become 

better learners, according to the 

experts. 

This is what we need. Modern technology’s 

computers and video games are 

great, but there is nothing better than 

getting out into the natural world and, 

depending on one’s age, making a mud 

pie, looking underneath rocks for bugs, 

touching tree sap and handling frogs 

and snakes. 

An appreciation of nature is needed if 

future generations are going to preserve 

what open space the previous generation 

leaves them. If they do not appreciate 

the good that comes from having 

open space, then open space will disappear. 

In addition, there is a tremendous 

amount of history rattling around the 

French-style mansion, from understanding 

the historic architecture to knowing 

who designed the 1917 structure. 

This is an all around great place for 

schools to visit and enhance the education 

we want our children to be getting. 

Seatuck has finally found a home and 

they want a lot of visitors. ■

Movie Review with Susan Sessa 

Loving a few movies about love 

By SUSAN SESSA 

Valentine’s Day 

Once upon a time, I really believed Prince 

Charming would come to carry me off on 

his white steed and we would live happily 

ever after. Unfortunately, after a couple of 

heartbreaks and a handful of disappointments, 

I realized love wasn’t written in the 

stars for me. 

I related most to Jessica Biel’s character 

in Valentine’s Day, who was cynical 

about the whole “love” word. Not to sound 

completely negative though, I personally am witnessing my 

parent’s celebration of their 60th wedding anniversary this 

year, my newlywed co-worker constantly tells me how she 

can’t wait to go home to her husband, and I’ve been seeing 

the smile on my oldest daughter’s face, being in love for the 

first time. 

But Valentine’s Day (Feb. 14) seems so commercial to me. 

It is a happy time for card companies, florists and candy 

stores perhaps, but just not for me. 

This movie overflows with actors as director Garry Marshall 

has concocted a star-studded stew. It simmers mostly 

around a few main characters. Ashton Kutcher (I’ve loved 

him ever since That 70’s Show) owns a florist shop in Los Angeles 

and, as a hopeless romantic, he is every girl’s dream. 

He proposes to Jessica Alba, but she is more involved with 

her career. Then there is cutie pie Jennifer Garner, Kutcher’s 

best friend. I remember Oprah once saying that best friends 

make the best lovers. 

Bradley Cooper befriends service woman Julia Roberts on 

a plane as she is making the long 14-hour trip home to see 

her special someone. Shirley MacLaine and Hector Elizondo, 

two real acting pros, do share a sweet old love story. 

Eric Dane (McSteamy from Grey’s Anatomy) portrays a 

football player with an interesting story. The list of actors 

goes on and on (Taylor Lautner, George Lopez, 

Taylor Swift). 

Then there were the actors who, to me, 

were just wasted. Kathy Bates, Patrick 

Dempsey, Topher Grace, Queen Latifah and 

Anne Hathaway are all great but with very 

so-so stories in this film. 

It’s a cute movie but never comes to a tasty 

boil. If you want to see a delicious movie, 

rent the classic, Love Actually. It has onefourth 

the actors of Valentine’s Day and 

serves up 10 times the entertainment. 

I give it 2 1/2 heart-shaped Raisinets and 

advise you to wait for the DVD. I believe if you love someone—your 

partner, your soul mate, your piece to your puzzle—you 

should show them you love them every day, not 

just on Feb. 14. 

Bella (DVD) 

I’ve said before that some of the best movies are total surprises. 

The movie you never heard of but for some strange 

reason you pull it off the shelf. Maybe it’s the cover as was 

the case with this charming little film I came across recently 

called Bella. 

This was one of the most unique and endearing movies I 

have seen in a long time; completely captivating me and capturing 

my heart and spirit. Eduardo Verástegui’s (he’s very 

handsome) character is on his way to sign a multimilliondollar 

contract to become an international soccer player. 

All of a sudden, events change and he becomes head chef 

at his brother’s restaurant and befriends a waitress played 

by Tammy Blanchard. She finds out something for which 

she is totally unprepared. Suddenly their lives become entwined 

and something very sweet and simple changes both 

their lives forever. 

Put this on your “To See” list! This 2007 movie won the 

People’s Choice award at the Toronto Film Festival and won 

4 1/2 beautiful and touching Raisinets with me! ■

New cabinets 

A reconstructed area at Masera Learning Center in West Islip, 

known as the ADL (activities of daily living) room, has created 

excitement within the school and the ABA (applied behavioral 

analysis) PTO. 

Masera, where elementary and middle school students with 

autism and related developmental disabilities prepare for the 

future, boasts the recent installation of new cabinetry. 

In addition to the PTO fundraising, several thousand dollars 

were donated by the East Islip-based EJ Foundation for Autism, 

achieved through an 83-mile venture from East Islip to Montauk, 

called the EJ Foundation’s Real Aid for Autism Walk. New countertops 

and appliances are being provided for the ADL room by 

Eastern Suffolk BOCES.

ZAGAT…“Every Town Should Have A Restaurant Like This”

Seeking to engage 

everyone in nature 

SEATUCK from page 1 

as an undergrad at Cornell that had him 

studying sturgeon in the Hudson River Valley. 

He earned a master’s degree from the 

SUNY College of Environmental Science 

and Forestry in Syracuse. 

Currently, Kelder is overseeing a citizen 

science project that seeks to count (approximately) 

the amount of alewife fish (a 

species of herring) in the area. 

The alewife, a small fish about 12 inches 

long, is a forage or feeder fish for larger 

species, so the larger the alewife population 

is, the healthier the populations of bigger 

fish are. 

This counting, Kelder said, can be done in 

April and May, when the alewife swims to 

spawn, and can be done from overpasses 

and other easy access points to the waterways. 

Volunteers can be trained and then 

sent out to conduct the data collection. 

“It is a good opportunity to learn about 

this fish and go outside and help the 

cause,” said Kelder, who also serves as the 

mansion’s caretaker. 

For education director Peter Walsh, the 

programs are all about getting outside and 

allowing people, especially children, to get 

involved in nature. Walsh’s lectures, which 

got underway last Thursday, are slated to 

be part of a year-long series that engages 

families, as well as an adult-only one that 

he termed “more intense.” 

For children, the concept is to get them 

outdoors to experience nature in the manner 

of what is called “free-range play” to 

not only learn which bugs are under what 

rocks, but also to make mud pies. 

“It is a hot topic, why it is so important to 

put kids outside,” said Walsh, who formerly 

ran the Western Suffolk BOCES Learning 

Laboratory located at Sunken Meadow 

State Park. 

The group has scheduled volunteer cleanups 

on four consecutive Saturdays, March 

20 and 27, and April 3 and 10 from noon to 

4 p.m. to help prepare for the grand opening. 

For more information about Seatuck, 

visit www.seatuck.org. ■ 


In anticipation of its grand opening next month, Seatuck held its first Business Leaders 

Breakfast and honored Islip businessman Eric Buehler of Overton Funeral Home for his 

longstanding support. From left are: Buehler, County Legislator Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) 

and Seatuck Executive Director Enrico Nardone.

Celebrating civic pride and community service 

Islip hosts Black History Celebration honoring local leaders 

By EMILY PORTOGHESE 

ISLIP — At the close of National Black 

History Month, the town of Islip held a 

celebration in honor of local African- 

Americans who have made a difference in 

their community and beyond. 

Central Islip Senior High School Principal 

Franklin N. Caesar served as the keynote 

speaker for the town event. He delivered 

a spirited speech on his history and how it 

brought him to the present. 

As the only black member of his high 

school basketball team, Caesar noted he 

missed a slam-dunk at an important game. 

“If I had made that dunk, I don’t think I 

would be where I am today,” he said. 

He emigrated to the U.S. from the West 

Indies when he was just 2 years old and has 

presented speeches across the country. He 

also serves as principal for CI’s alternative 

school, The Academy, which is geared 

towards “at-risk” teens with attendance and 

discipline issues. Currently in its second 

year, The Academy assisted in helping 17 

students graduate. Caesar is also the boys’ 

varsity basketball coach. 

Following Caesar’s speech was a 

slideshow presentation featuring the town’s 

2010 Black History Celebration honorees, 

Carole Benjamin, Shadrack Boakye, 

Carlton Brown, Franklin Caesar, Deanna 

Danzy, Joan Johnson, Gladys Malloy and 

LaQuita Outlaw-Marks. 

In addition, Theresa Sanders of The 

Urban League of Long Island Inc. received 

a proclamation. Johnson, a Bay Shore 

resident and former town clerk, was the 

first African-American ever elected to 

public office in Islip Town. 

Bay Shore High School senior Danzy 

is a recipient of the National Youth 

Achievement Award, Secretary of the High 

School’s Student Council, editor of her 

school’s yearbook and literary magazine, 

and a tutor through Youth Enrichment 

Services (YES). 

Benjamin is a social worker who is 

involved with several organizations that 

assist those who are HIV positive or have 

AIDS. Benjamin thanked her family, friends 

and co-workers for coming to the event. 

Outlaw-Marks is the principal of Bay 

Shore Middle School and aspires to be a 

district superintendent. Bay Shore’s current 

superintendent, Evelyn Blose Holman, said 

about Outlaw-Marks, “This gal is going to 

be a superintendent one day.”

Boakye was born in Liberia and spent 

seven years in Ghana. When he was just 8 

years old, he joined his father in the U.S. 

and later had to live in shelters and foster 

homes because of his father’s problems 

with the law. 

This 2008 graduate of Brentwood High 

School was one of nine winners of a 

national essay contest, and has written 

and directed a play titled The Truth. He is 

currently a sophomore at Suffolk County 

Community College’s Brentwood Campus. 

Bay Shore’s Gardiner Manor Elementary 

School Principal Carlton Brown is “a 

natural leader who understands people 

and how to motivate them,” Councilman 

John Edwards said. Brown is also an artist 

whose photographs were featured in the 

Chicago Artists Exhibit and Sale. 

Malloy, a Central Islip resident, formed 

a prison ministry group through which 

she traveled to numerous prisons located 

throughout New York state. She currently 

conducts a bible study program for women 

at the Suffolk County Correctional Facility 

in Riverhead. 

St. Mark Remanante Ministries member 

and president of the Islip NAACP (National 

Association of Advancement for Colored 

People), Roderick Pearson, spoke of his 

gratitude for Malloy’s work. 

In closing out the event, Town Supervisor 

Phil Nolan noted he was delighted to honor 

the “outstanding human beings who made 

such a huge difference in people’s lives.” ■

STATE.NY.US. FORECLO- 

SURE RESCUE SCAMS 

Be careful of people who 

approach you with offers to 

“save” your home. There are 

individuals who watch for 

notices of foreclosure actions 

in order to unfairly profit from 

a homeowner’s distress. You 

should be extremely careful 

about any such promises and 

any suggestions that you pay 

them a fee or sign over your 

deed. State law requires anyone 

offering such services for 

profit to enter into a contract 

which fully describes the services 

they will perform and 

fees they will charge, and 

which prohibits them from 

taking any money from you 

until they have completed 

all such promised services. § 

1303 NOTICE NOTICE YOU 

ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING 

YOUR HOME If you do not 

respond to this summons and 

complaint by serving a copy 

of the answer on the attorney 

for the mortgage company 

who filed this foreclosure proceeding 

against you and filing 

the answer with the court, 

a default judgment may be 

entered and you can lose your 

home. Speak to an attorney 

or go to the court where your 

case is pending for further 

information on how to answer 

the summons and protect your 

property. Sending a payment 

to your mortgage company 

will not stop this foreclosure 

action. YOU MUST RESPOND 

BY SERVING A COPY OF THE 

ANSWER ON THE ATTOR- 

NEY FOR THE PLAINTIFF 

(MORTGAGE COMPANY) 

AND FILING THE ANSWER 

WITH THE COURT. DATED:

FARMINGDALE — The 

explosions began early and 

often, but unfortunately, it 

was not the team that Bay 

Shore fans wanted to see 

have the offensive surges. 

Spearheaded by Tennesseebound 

senior Tobias Harris, 

the top-seeded Half Hollow 

Hills West Colts made up for 

a loss to the Marauders during 

the past football season 

as they bounded their way 

to a 96-48 victory in a Class 

AA semifinal at Farmingdale 

State College last Sunday. 

Hills West (21-0) is slated to 

face No. 2 Longwood (19-2) 

who overpowered No. 3 Lindenhurst 

79-62 in the Class 

AA championship game on 

Wednesday, March 3 also at 

Farmingdale at 7:30 p.m. 

“They came out there and 

played exactly like they 

were supposed to play and 

we did not,” said Bay Shore 

head coach Gary Williams. 

“We were very timid and 

very lackadaisical, and good 

teams bury teams that do 

that. That’s a very good team. 

They did everything they 

were supposed to do today.” 

Harris (21 points) and his 

mates leaped out to a 14-8 

lead with 4:25 remaining in 

the first quarter and despite 

not scoring for nearly three 

minutes and allowing No. 13 

Bay Shore to scramble within 

one at 14-13 with 2:07 left 

in the period, an Emile Blackman rebound turned into a 

Harris basket, then a Tavon Sledge (23 points) dunk made 

it 18-14 with 1:14 to go. Tyler Harris had 23 points. 

Then the Colts really took off as Sledge’s spinning move 

made it 25-15, 1:44 into the second quarter. Despite Bay 

Shore’s best efforts, the deficit ballooned to 40-26 off a Harris 

trey with 2:08 before halftime. 

It was more of the same in the second half as Hills West 

led by 70-30 with 2:19 remaining in the third quarter. Williams 

replaced a few players in the second half, but it was 

not due to the large deficit. 

“If you are not going to give us effort on both ends 

of the courts, can’t play you, can’t play you. It’s not the 

type of basketball that we play. That’s not how we got to 

SPORTS 

where we are. We play on both ends of the 

courts. Everybody dictates their own playing time,” said 

Williams, adding, “It’s all heart.” 

Bay Shore (11-9) did demonstrate heart following a 5-1 

start that went awry to a 2-4 fall, then rebounded with late 

season wins, including two in the playoffs, knocking off 

No. 4 East Islip and No. 5 Brentwood before banging into 

Hills West. 

Despite the behavioral issues during the season and this 

game’s benchings, Williams saved most of his venom for 

the traveling AAU (Amateur Athletic Union) that the majority 

of youthful basketball players participate in, which appears 

to forego learning playing the game well for winning 

and notching big statistics. 

“So, when they come to their high school teams we’re 

stuck with players that don’t know how to line up and

shoot a free throw, don’t know how to get into a defensive 

stance or a three-triple threat position, don’t know how to 

release the basketball on a shot,” Williams said. 

“We don’t have the time to really teach this stuff,” he added. 

“That’s why I took this job. That’s why I did this. To try 

turn that stuff around and it’s not an overnight thing.” 

But Williams noted before the game that “these are the 

building blocks” and he plans to help his team improve 

from each game and into the next season. “I picked it up 

in the middle of the summer last year. I didn’t really have 

all of my players, but now all it is is a learning process,” 

Williams said. “We really don’t have a lot of kids who understand 

the fundamentals and that is what we are going to 

be doing all spring.” ■ 

Sibling lugers 

The Olympic spirit was alive and thriving in Lake Placid as the 

upstate city hosted the 30th Annual Empire State Winter Games 

on Friday, Feb. 20 and Saturday, Feb. 21. 

Two local athletes from West Islip, siblings Aidan and Olivia 

Kelly, participated in the sport of luge at the Olympic Sports 

Complex at Mount Van Hovenberg. Aidan finished just shy of the 

podium in the Youth Men’s A division with a finishing time of 

46.474 seconds (just .257 behind the third-place finisher). 

Olivia (pictured going down the track) finished with a time of 

52.342 (just .048 behind the fourth-place finisher and .231 behind 

the third-place finisher) in fifth place in the Youth Ladies B division. 

Bone chilling 17ºF temperatures did not cool the heated competition 

as athletes participated in the winter sports of luge, skier 

cross and snowboard cross, adapted skiing, cross-country skiing, 

ski jumping, ski orienteering, bobsled, skeleton, snowshoe 

racing, biathlon, figure skating, speed skating and women’s ice 

hockey. ■
