Veterans get new homes, lease on life in Sound Beach

Deborah Bonacasa receives the keys to her new home in Sound Beach.

By DeSirée Keegan

For one of two veteran families, receiv-ing a new home is bittersweet.

Deborah “Dee” Bonacasa and her daughter Lilianna entered their new home on Tyler Avenue in Sound Beach Monday morning as part of a new chapter, but it wasn’t without great grief because hus-band and father Staff Sgt. Louis Bonacasa wasn’t there to join them.

Following what was his fourth deploy-ment to Afghanistan, Bonacasa, a Coram native, wanted to settle down, have a sec-ond child and buy the family’s first house with a Veterans Affairs home loan for which the couple had been approved.

But that was taken from them on Dec. 21, 2015, when a suicide bomber detonated himself outside Bagram Airfield in northwest Afghanistan, killing Bonacasa and five others in his New York Air National Guard Unit.

“My husband is not here to share this wonderful gift we’ve been given, but at the same time they fulfilled a dream that he’s always wanted to be able to do for our family,” said Bonacasa, who is also an Air Force veteran.

The widow said she was thankful for Landmark Properties owner Mark Baisch, Rocky Point’s VFW Post Commander Joe Cognitore and all of the other locals who have made the new home possible.

“Everybody has been supporting us since the beginning. I just want to thank everybody.”

The house, which would normally go for $350,000, was sold to Bonacasa for $200,000, Baisch said. He and his em-ployees at Landmark Properties donated $50,000 to Bonacasa. The families got to pick out the flooring, fixtures and décor to help personalize the home, and Baisch even had a surprise for 5-year-old Lily, painting her room blue, her and her fa-ther’s favorite color.

The second house, just next door, was sold for $250,000 to Joshua and Megan Johnson. Joshua Johnson will have 14 years of military service this July. He too deployed four times, serving in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait and is currently in the Air National Guard. Megan Johnson’s father and older brother are also in the Air National Guard, with her brother being in the Marine Corps. Her husband, who the Sound Beach na-tive met three years ago, works in the same base as them, and the two met during her friend’s going away party for deployment.

Senior citizens in Rocky Point may soon have a new living option. The Rocky Point-based development company Landmark Prop-erties Ltd. presented plans to the Rocky Point Civic Association, Historical Society and about 100 members of the community at a meeting on the grounds of the would-be homes.

Mark Baisch, owner of Landmark Prop-erties, constructed a plan called On the Common at Rocky Point, which calls for 40 600-square-foot, one-bedroom senior citizen apartments that would be constructed on the site of the old Thurber Lumber Co. Inc., which closed its doors in February. The plan for the 1.8-acre space near Broadway was met with hesitancy in March from some community members, though reactions from the recent meeting were overwhelmingly positive.

“I’m favorably impressed,” said Rocky Point Civic Association President Charles Bevington, who attended the presentation. “I liked every-thing, essentially. It’s forward thinking.”

Bevington said he was also pleased with the importance Baisch placed on environmen-tal concerns associated with new develop-ment. The buildings would have solar energy, storm-water runoff irrigation systems, energy efficient appliances and safeguards against ni-trogen pollution.

“It’s right for a lot of reasons,” said Baisch,

a developer. “It brings a residential compo-nent to the Broadway-Rocky Point area.”

Baisch made the case for why the project would be an appealing option for senior citi-zens in the Rocky Point community in March.

“They have to pay taxes, they have to pay their oil bill, they have to pay for repairs [for their home],” he said. In the On the Com-mon homes, senior citizens would not have to worry about upkeep and maintenance around their yard and home. Also, they would be liv-ing within a community of their peers and would have more freedom in their daily lives,

according to Baisch.He was encouraged by

the positive response he received. He said he had a handful of people sign up to reserve apartments in the event that the plan becomes a reality.

“I think they realize it’s a major step in the redevelop-

ment of Rocky Point,” Baisch said, adding that he’s noticed more commercial development in the Rocky Point area.

Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) said in March she would prefer to see a community center on the centrally located property in downtown Rocky Point, because it is a high-density area already, but recently said she is coming around on Land-mark Property’s plan.

“It’s a drastic change from the original rendering,” Anker said. “It looks very much improved from the original conception. I’m

listening to the community. If the community supports it, I will support it. … Community in-put is always incredibly important when signif-icant change is happening in the community.”

Town of Brookhaven Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point) said there’s a large number of seniors who live in North Shore Beach who are interested.

“Many have reached out to me excited

about this,” she said. Baisch’s plan also guarantees 25 percent

of the 40 homes will be reserved for senior citizens who are veterans of the United States military, a point which was appealing to Bevington.

The plan still needs to be approved by the Town of Brookhaven though, before ground is broken and development can begin.

Campaign cash clashBy Phil COrsO

Time is running out for the state Legisla-ture to change the way it allows money to in-fluence politics, and Long Island activists took to the Senate majority leader’s Smithtown of-fice on Tuesday to make some noise.

A loophole in the state’s campaign finance laws has become a political talking point for the better part of the past year, allowing limit-ed liability companies to contribute large sums of cash to political campaigns in amounts far greater than the average corporation can.

On Tuesday, groups including Common Cause New York and MoveOn.org took to the office of state Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) to draw attention to legislation that was written to change that, with hopes of swaying a vote on the Senate floor before session ends June 16.

Susan Lerner, executive director of Com-mon Cause New York said her group, which investigates public officials and political contributions, found the state Senate Republican Campaign Committee was one of the largest benefactors of what has been dubbed the LLC loophole, bringing in about $5.6 million in campaign contributions from LLCs over the past 10 years — with 68 percent of this sum coming from the real estate industry. The Senate Housekeeping Committee also netted more than $11 million over the past 10 years in the same fashion.

Lerner argued that as long as elected lead-ers are receiving such lump sums of money from politically motivated groups, they will never allow for legislation to come to a full vote enacting any kind of change.

“It’s time for the Senate Republicans to stop blocking the necessary reforms,” she said. “The LLC loophole has a warping affect on public policy.”

Flanagan, who the Long Island advo-cates singled out on Tuesday as one of the benefactors of LLC contributions to the tune of $159,000 over the past 10 years, referred to the legislation as a “red herring that fails to fundamentally address the root cause” of the campaign finance flaws. He said the state needed to be more aggressive in beefing up

money laundering laws and targeting straw donors to keep groups from contributing in the shadows.

“If we are going to achieve real campaign finance reform and target corruption, you can’t close one loophole and declare the job done,” Flanagan said. “In fact, one needs to look no further than New York City for evi-dence of multiple campaign finance trans-gressions that must be addressed. We need to take additional steps to prevent the funneling of big money through county organizations and directing where that money will be spent, which is already illegal under state law.”

Senate bill S60B has been sitting in the Sen-ate’s Codes Committee since May 9. The bill, which state Sen. Daniel Squadron (D-Brook-lyn) introduced, saw success in the Democrat-controlled Assembly in the past before previous versions died in the Senate. In the legislation, Squadron argued that the Legislature must

avoid such loopholes that al-low “unlimited sums of anon-ymous dollars to undermine the entire political process.”

Lisa Oldendorp, of MoveOn.org’s Long Island chapter, said the political loophole was a threat to de-mocracy in the United States.

“We are sick and tired of the role that money plays in

campaigns,” she said. “It’s way beyond time to pass this law. We want the voice of the people to be heard.”

Alejandra Sorta, organizer of the Long Is-land Civic Engagement Table, which works with working class communities of color to turn the tide of anti-immigrant and anti-worker politics, said the timing was right for such legislation to pass, citing various corrup-tion scandals sprouting up across various lo-cal and state governments, which has taken down some major political players.

“In light of persistent corruption charges, indictments and/or convictions stemming from unethical and illegal activity at the hands of some of our most powerful and in-fluential leaders in Albany, communities of color are raising their voices and speaking out against big money in politics,” she said. “We demand concrete electoral reforms that will assure transparency and accountability at ev-ery level of government.”

BREAKING NEWS www.tbrnewsmedia.com

Residents protest, but red light camera program upheldBy Desirée Keegan

The Legislature may not be behind them, but Suffolk County residents are still calling the red light camera program a money grab and a safety hazard.

People cried out in support of county Legislator Rob Trotta’s (R-Fort Salonga) bill to suspend the county’s program dur-ing a Public Safety Committee meeting on May 26, but the Suffolk legislative commit-tee stopped it from coming to fruition. The vote was 5 to 3 against a motion to move the bill to the full county Legislature for a vote after nearly 20 residents spoke up against the use of the cameras.

Stephen Ruth Jr. pleaded not guilty at his arraignment on June 3 to 17 counts of criminal mischief after allegedly tampering with 16 red light cameras at intersections along Route 25 in Coram. He also spoke at the Legislature meeting late last month.

“Red light cameras are a detriment to Suffolk County,” he said. “The risks and damages to the well-being of Suffolk Coun-ty residents far outweigh the benefits. We all know now that red light cameras are a systematic form of extortion and nothing more. … Traffic signals were manipulated for revenue and it was only made possible by Suffolk County’s reckless willingness to do anything for money.”

Residents cited statistics to try to back up their issues with the program, using a 42 percent increase in rear-end colli-sions in 2014 as evidence of the program’s shortcomings, and said nearly half of the locations where cameras were installed showed an increase in personal injury.

“You’re not here working for the mid-dle class people, you’re actually hurting them,” Hector Gavilla said. “The program is not working at all. We were promised that these red light cameras would stop these incidents.”

But overall, crashes have decreased by 3.1 percent, while T-bone crashes have decreased by 21.6 percent. The data also reflects an overall decrease in crashes in-volving injury by 4.2 percent, based upon data from the New York State Department of Transportation’s most current data avail-able as of December 2014.

Rachel Lugo, who has worked in high-way safety for over 20 years, was the only person to speak in support of the cameras. She said that although crashes have in-creased, she believes it’s not because of the cameras, but as a result of more new driv-ers on the road, and “increasingly danger-ous” issues like texting and being distract-ed while driving, drinking while driving and being under the influence of drugs.

“You can’t say that these crashes are increasing because of red light cameras,” she said. “What about stop signs? Let’s take them away also. Why don’t we just

take away traffic lights? Red light cam-eras are not the problem. Teaching the motorists to change their behavior behind the wheel is where we need to start. If everyone stopped at the red lights we wouldn’t have to wor-ry about what’s going on with fines and who is making money.”

There are statistics to back her up.

Paul Margiotta, ex-ecutive director of Suf-folk County’s Traffic and Parking Violations Agency, said that be-tween 2012 and 2013, the county saw a 34,000 increase in licensed driv-ers, where prior to 2012 the average was trending down. He said citations for texting and driv-ing and distracted driv-ing doubled since 2011, which tends to cause rear-end crashes.

Legislator William “Doc” Spencer (D-Centerport) joined Les-lie Kennedy (R-Nesconset) and Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) in voting to pass the bill.

Spencer asked to put the program un-der a microscope.

“We have to do something,” he said. “It’s hard for me to discount the public outcry. There’s a lot of smoke here. I want to make sure I’m doing my oversight job to make sure I have looked at this with a very detailed eyed.”

County Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket) agreed, although she stat-ed that there was always an expectation that there would be an increase in rear-end crashes.

“Many things we deal with here are not black and white,” she said. “The policy decision was to institute an enforce-ment mechanism that will decrease the right-angle crashes which cause the more serious injuries and death, with the chance of and the expectation that there will be some uptick

in rear-end crashes.”She said she would like to see a report

done on the intersections where there

were a large number of rear-end crashes, to see if a majority of them were a result of the cameras or other things like texting and driving.

According to William Hillman, Suffolk’s chief engineer, that investigation is on-going. The county is in the process of re-viewing crash data at the 42 intersections it controls. The state controls the other 58 intersections with cameras.

“These intersections where there’s been that high uptick, all due haste is needed in reviewing what is going on so that we have a real answer,” Hahn said. “There’s a huge increase in crashes just in general because of distracted driving. This is happening more and more and red light cameras are not going to stop that.”

She said the red ligjt camera program was created with a different intent in mind.

“What red light cameras were designed to do was for the folks who were choos-ing to put their foot on the gas when the light turns yellow, to rethink that,” she said. “They will actually stop at a red light, and that will save lives when people know that there could be consequences for run-ning a red light. And that probably already has, because we’ve seen a decrease in T-bone crashes, which are more serious and life-threatening. That is the purpose of the program.”

Writers earn national honorsRocky Point High School juniors Pooja

Deshpande and Maggie Dowd have been named winners in the National Council of Teachers of English Achievement Awards in Writing contest.

The NCTE Achievement Awards in Writ-ing is a school-based program that was es-tablished in 1957 to encourage writing and to publicly recognize some of the best stu-dent-writers in the nation.

Each November, the NCTE invites high schools across the nation to nominate 11th-grade writers. Since being nominated, the two students worked alongside their English

teacher Christine Blume to perfect their sub-missions — the first being a piece that the students’ considered their best work, and the second a piece on a topic developed by the Achievement Awards Advisory Committee.

This year, a total of 533 juniors across the country were nominated by their schools, and 264 were chosen as outstanding writers. All compositions were evaluated by national judges on content, purpose, audience, tone, word choice, organization, development and style. Judges also looked for writing that demonstrated effective and imaginative use of language to inform and move an audience.


entire time because we knew they weren’t go-ing to give us any let-ups,” she said. “We had to go full throttle.”

The second half started slower, and Mount Sinai found itself plagued with yellow cards, being down a player for two minutes at a time on sev-eral occasions through the 25 minutes. Cold Spring Harbor scored two goals but calm is contagious, ac-cording to Bertolone.

“We were poised and we pulled it out,” he said.

The girls will face Honeoye Falls-Lima in the state semifinals at SUNY Cortland on June 10 at 2:30 p.m. If the team wins, they

play in the finals at the same time and loca-tion the following day.

But not many thought the team would make it to even this point. The Mustangs graduated a significant amount of talent fol-

lowing last year, and had its fair share of doubters heading into this season.

“No one thought we could do it, but we thought we could,” Harloff said.

“We believed in ourselves. No one thought we would get here and it feels great to prove them all wrong.”

By Desirée Keegan

Senior midfielder Erica Shea crouched along the sideline below the stands and whis-pered as she pulled up her hands to pray.

“Let’s go,” she shouted, after stepping out onto the field and clicking her stick against those of her teammates. “Can’t lose,” she and her team said as they exited the huddle before the start of the game.

Her prayers were answered or maybe not even needed, but either way she’s right — her Mount Sinai girls’ lacrosse

team can’t lose. The Mustangs played a man down for the last 10 minutes of the game and, despite letting up three goals in that span, still came away with the Long Island Class C championship title with a 7-5 win over Cold Spring Harbor on June 5 at Stony Brook University.

The team proved that defense still wins championships.

“We’re always defense first,” head coach Al Bertolone said. “We have a very strong non-league schedule — we were in a lot of tough games. Our kids learned how to play gritty and tough in these moments.”

Mount Sinai scored three goals to open the first half. Immediately following a Han-nah Van Middelem save just minutes into the game, sophomore attack Camryn Harloff scored first after carrying the ball down the back side of the field for a goal. Senior mid-fielder Caroline Hoeg scored off a Shea feed minutes later, and junior attack and mid-fielder Leah Nonnenmann tacked on the third unassisted with 18:35 still left in the first half.

After a brief hiccup in which the senior goalkeeper let up a rare goal, senior attack and midfielder Meghan Walker dumped the ball in up front off a pass from Nonnenmann, after the junior couldn’t squeeze past defenders, pulled back and saw the open look for Walker.

Next, junior midfielder Rayna Sabella took the ball from the left side of the goal and passed it up to Harloff on the far right post. She sent the ball flying into the netting for a 5-1 advantage.

“We knew that [Cold Spring Harbor] wanted to come out and crush us, because last year they lost to us in triple overtime,” Harloff said. “So we knew we had to come out stron-ger and have that intensity to beat them.”

Sabella added a free position goal to extend the lead to 6-2, but Cold Spring Harbor was able to pull apart the defense just for a brief moment to draw within 6-3 after a good goal.

“We game-planned pretty well — on de-fense we knew their personnel and we knew who we had to stay strong on at all times,” Sa-bella said. “Throughout this season we’ve been known as a ‘second-half team,’ so we knew in order to win we’d have to pick it up in the first half and keep that momentum throughout.”

Shea added to the offensive onslaught when she pressed against the defense and sent a buzzer-beating shot rocketing into the cage to end the half.

“We knew we had to give 100 percent the

Jimmy Puckey doesn’t even like lacrosse. But now, he’s a champion.

“It’s not my favorite sport,” Puckey said. “It’s nothing like football, but you have to do what you have to do. You have to play.”

What would get him to like the sport more?

“More hitting,” he said. “Less getting hit with the ball also helps.”

What Puckey does between the pipes is special. And he did it for his Wild-cats, making save after save when it counted to help Shoreham-Wading River to its first Long Island championship title since 2012 with an 8-6 win over Garden City Saturday at Hofstra University.

“Jimmy might not like lacrosse, but he’s playing for his friends, and he has such a passion for his brothers that he doesn’t want to let them down,” head coach Mike Taylor said. “He might not like lacrosse, but he loves his friends.”

It was a different first quarter from what teams have recently seen from the Wildcats,

and junior Kevin Cutinella stole the show, fin-ishing the game with four goals on five shots.

The midfielder scored early unassisted, and junior attack Chris Gray added a tally off an assist from senior attack Jason Curran with a man-up advantage for the 2-0 lead.

“He doesn’t panic, and we lean on him be-cause he calms everyone down,” Taylor said of Cutinella. “He’s just a great kid.”

Puckey clipped the ball and made a save seven seconds later, and at the 5:42 mark, Cu-tinella scored his second goal off a pass from senior midfielder Jon Constant to finish a 3-0 run.

Garden City saved a shot by junior midfielder Joe Miller, and Puckey made another block before Garden City put its first point on the board with 1:40 left to end the scoring for the first quarter.

“Communication was key, not making too many errors on offense and just playing fast,” Cutinella said. “Just playing our game.”

Garden City scored four unanswered goals to take the lead, but Cu-tinella wasn’t having any of it, and passed the ball to junior Joe Miller who, with a back-door cut, leaped in front of the net and dumped it in for the tying goal with 22.8 seconds left in the first half.

Gray received two feeds from Miller, but both shots were blocked, with Garden City heavily defending the team’s top scorer.

With 4:52 left in the third, Cutinella scored unassisted for his hat trick goal.

“They had the long pole on Jonny [Con-stant] which led me to have the shortstick defensive midfielder on me and I just took ad-vantage of that,” Cutinella said. “We weren’t

talking in the beginning and then we changed that around, and when our defense plays good, our offense plays good.”

After a few missed Wildcat shots, Constant scored unassisted for a 6-4 advantage with 27 seconds left in the quarter.

“We never beat Garden City and it was great to beat them here in my senior year,” he said. “We had to stop them on defense first and then we had to put them in on of-fense with great ball movement. The chemis-

try is good and it’s been a fun ride.”

Puckey, knowing what to do to secure the lead, batted the ball out of bounds to his left with 1.2 seconds on the clock.

“He just showed up and is playing his A game,” Cutinella said. “He likes la-crosse now.”

Cutinella’s parents, pre-planned, but surprisingly to their son, presented the team with the champion-ship plaque.

“Seeing them on the field made my day even more,” he said. “You can’t really put the words to-gether for that stuff. It’s a great experience and I love them. They’ve been there for me.”

Cutinella said this win means everything, adding that the team had one goal at the beginning of the season, and they’ve almost achieved it.

Taylor is also proud to see his team come through with this kind of success after the school scored its second consecutive Long Island championship crown in football this school year.

“This is what you work for the entire year and to see all the hard work pay off and to get to this moment, this is what you play for,” he

said. “We’ll celebrate today, but I think now we have unfinished business. I have a lot of the football players on this squad and I think some of their successes is translating over onto the lacrosse field. The kids are playing well in big moments.”

The Wildcats moved on to play in the semifinals against Yorktown on Wednesday at Hofstra, but results were not available by press time.

Taylor is sad to see this season coming to a close, but couldn’t be more thrilled for the spe-cial moments these boys have had throughout this memorable season.

“The saddest moment is realizing right now I have four more practices left with these kids,” he said. “Having limited time with a special group of kids, I wish it could go on forever.”

One of the most special moments so far, was for him to see Cutinella receive the plaque from his parents, especially after the game he’d had.

“That’s an ironic moment — especially when it was planned prior to this — for him to have that type of game,” he said, fighting back tears. “These kids have been through so much tragedy, they just deserve this. I think someone might be looking down from above.”

Joseph A. Edgar Intermediate School students and staff members recently participated in this year’s Mini-Relay for Life.

Taking steps toward a cureJoseph A. Edgar Intermediate School

students and staff members recently ral-lied together to raise awareness of cancer as they fundraised more than $5,890 dur-ing this year’s Mini-Relay for Life event.

The effort, which benefited the Ameri-can Cancer Society, called for participants to take steps toward a cure as they walked a track set up in the school’s parking lot.

Students earned white and purple beads to place on a necklace to record every lap and mile walked. They also had the chance to take part in a variety of raffles hosted throughout the event.

The program, which has become an an-nual tradition in Rocky Point, was again coordinated by physical education teacher Maria Amoscato.

The Mount Sinai baseball team in the huddle.

Special season falls just short for SinaiBy Alex PeTroSki

Pitching and defense were the keys to the Long Island Class A baseball championship game Saturday. In the end, Wantagh had just enough of each, and Mount Sinai was left to wonder what might have been.

The Warriors defeated the Mustangs 3-1 behind a complete game, one hit, zero earned run pitching per-formance by senior Bobby Hegarty at the Police Athletic League Complex in Holtsville. Hegarty got the best of Mount Sinai senior Sam Kessler on the mound. Kessler also went seven innings, scattering five hits and one walk while striking out seven.

“He’s been tremendous all year long,” Mount Sinai head coach Eric Reichenbach said of his pitcher after the loss Saturday. Kessler pitched the Mustangs to the championship game with seven innings of two-hit ball to close out a two-game sweep of Rocky Point in the Suffolk County Class A championship series on May 25 and 26.

“It’s another game where basically he dominated,” Reichenbach said. “He didn’t give up an earned run. We didn’t play stellar defense behind him, and that’s kind of been our bread and butter all year long — pitching and defense.”

The fact that the Mustangs’ “bread and butter” failed them will probably make Saturday’s result a little tougher to swallow. The Warriors scored the first run of the game in the third inning after an error and two singles loaded the bases with one out for senior designated hitter Will O’Brien.

O’Brien hit a shot to deep left field, which was run down by Mount Sinai outfielder Paul Gomes. The eighth-grader made an outstanding running catch, slamming into the fence for the second out. O’Brien was credited with a sacrifice fly. After a stolen base, sophomore An-thony Fontana singled to right field to put Wantagh up 2-0. Both runs were unearned.

“I thought I didn’t have my best breaking ball early in the game,” Kessler said after the game. “I think that’s where I got in trouble in that third inning a little bit. I made the adjustments, but it was just one of those days. Not much you can say — they played good and came out here and beat us today.”

Kessler settled down and retired 12 of the next 13 Warriors hitters. Mount Sinai answered the Wantagh rally in the bottom of the third, getting men on base via an error and a single. With one out and men on first and second, Wantagh failed to turn a double play and an er-rant throw by Wantagh second basemen Mike Derham allowed the Mustangs to cut the lead in half. Hegarty didn’t allow another base runner after the third. He re-tired the final 12 Mustangs he faced to secure the Long Island championship.

“Hats off to the other team, and to Hegarty,” Reichen-bach said. “He threw a nice game. Sometimes you’ve got to tip your cap.”

Wantagh scored their third run on Mount Sinai’s third error of the game in the seventh inning.

The Mustangs captured their first-ever Suffolk County Class A championship title this season, though, so Satur-day’s disappointing result didn’t stop Mount Sinai from reflecting on a special season.

“It’s hard now because the game just ended, but it’s still a tremendous accomplishment by the school and these kids,” the head coach said. “We’ve never won a Suf-folk County championship before. We got one this year and it’s just unfortunate we won’t be going any further.”

Kessler will head to West Virginia University to pitch in the Big 12 Conference in the fall.

“It’s a great season all around,” Kessler said. “We took this team farther then we’ve ever been before. It’s a shame things ended the way it did. There’s a great group of guys here and they’ll be back next year.”

LIC proves too much for young MustangsBy Bill landon

One year ago, the Mount Sinai softball team reached a new milestone, achieving a level of success the likes of which the Mustangs had never seen.

“This is the best softball team Mount Sinai has ever had,” head coach Tom Tilton said. “They won the conference, they won the league and they won the county championship — something that has never been done before.”

Looking to repeat last year’s success, Mount Sinai went un-defeated in its conference for a second year in a row, finishing atop League VI with a 12-0 record, which earned the team the top seed in the Class A bracket.

After a first-round bye, the Mustangs picked off No. 4 Hampton Bays and took down No. 3 Islip, the only team that had beaten them in a nonleague contest earlier in the season, sending them to the loser bracket, only to play the Buccaneers again in the semifinal round. In back-to-back games, Mount Sinai beat Islip for the school’s second consecutive county title.

A year ago, it had never been done before. And this season, they did it again.

Mount Sinai’s roadblock last year was the Long Island championship, and this year it would be no different. The Mustangs faced Clarke at Hofstra University Friday afternoon, and fell 7-1 to end a remarkable season.

Mount Sinai fell behind 2-0 after one inning of play, and the Mustangs struggled to find a rhythm, making a pitching change in just the bottom of the second inning. Eighth-grader Kelsey Carr took over on the mound after Clarke loaded the bases with the Mustangs trailing by three runs. It was an error-riddled inning, and Clarke capitalized on each mistake, scor-ing four unearned runs to jump out to a 6-0 lead.

The Mount Sinai bats were quiet over the next two innings, but would get the goose egg off the scoreboard in the top of the fifth.

With runners at first and second, senior third baseman and catcher Sabrina Burrus smacked a sacrifice fly to advance the runner at second to third. Sophomore catcher and third baseman Hailey La Giudice stepped into the batter’s box and battled the pitcher as the count grew full, and ripped the ball through the gap to right field, plating Carr.

With runners on first and second, sophomore Emma Wim-mer drew a walk to load the bases, but the opportunity was squandered as the Mustangs went down swinging to end the inning. From there, the Mustangs bats went silent. The team was unable to mount another rally.

“We prepared to hit the faster pitching because we know what she brings,” Tilton said of Clarke’s pitcher. “There’s no two ways about it, but I didn’t anticipate making six errors in the first two innings. Today we were very nervous and we haven’t shown that all year. Today that killed us. You can’t give up five unearned runs to a pitcher like that and expect to win.”

Losing only two seniors to graduation, Tilton said he is op-timistic about next season.

“We’re a very young team,” he said. “We’ll be back next year.”

“We were awestruck,” Megan Johnson said of finding out they were chosen to receive the second house. “Then, when we found out we were going to be neighbors with an amaz-ing family. We just felt so honored.”

Because of the lot’s size, existing town laws only permitted one house to built there, but county and Brookhaven officials agreed to allow two houses to go up for this cause. The neigh-bors did not object but actually supported the idea, which Baisch said would not have been pos-sible without the help of county and town govern-ments, private industry and neighbors.

More than 30 subcontractors worked with Baisch, donating material and services to help construct the houses, furnish them and even gave contributions like store gift certificates and a new bicycle for Lily.

The community outpouring of welcome

and support was also felt by the families, as over 100 people packed down the small street to say hello to their new neighbors, bring flowers and gifts and show their gratitude for all the families have sacrificed.

“I felt a little worried actually, because to see something happen like this, I couldn’t imagine it, so when it actually did happen to us I felt blessed and just amazed to have this oppor-

tunity,” Joshua Johnson said. “I couldn’t imagine it being this huge.”

Megan Johnson said there aren’t words that could adequately ex-press her family’s grati-tude and say thank you in the appropriate way, but said it’s been a hum-bling experience. And they hope to be able to pay it forward.

“To see the outpour-ing of love, support and generosity from such a small community, it hits it home,” Megan Johnson said. “This is where we’re meant to be and this is why. We still can’t believe that we’re getting our dream home in our dream place, and it feels so great to have all of these people supporting us.”


Clockwise from left, Megan and Joshua Johnson enter their new home; the Patriot Guard Riders hold up American flags; Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone shares a special moment with Deborah Bonacasa; Lilianna Bonacasa received a new bike from the Patriot Guard Riders; and the neighboring homes were made possible by Landmark Properties and multiple subcontractors.

OpiniOnEditorial Letters to the editor

Protesters call for campaign finance reform this week.

Money is ‘still the mother’s milk of politics’

If there is but one positive to come out of the contentious primary season for both the Democratic and Republican nominations for U.S. president, it has been a spotlight on the issue of money in politics.

U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) made “political contributions from the millionaire and billionaire class” a cornerstone target of his cam-paign, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been forced to respond to her clocking in millions of dollars in compensation for speeches she had given to Wall Street bankers and others while not holding public office. On the Republican side, presumptive presiden-tial nominee Donald Trump made it a public point of pride that he was not accepting money from other corporate bigwigs, but instead was self-funded or relying on small grassroots contributions.

Clearly, the electorate is sensitive to big money’s influence on politics. Ask anybody on the street if they feel that gigantic chunks of money are perverting American democracy and, chances are, they will agree with you. And here we are.

New York State watchdogs stood in front of the Smithtown office of state Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) on Tuesday to make some noise over his stance on the Senate Republican Campaign and Housekeeping committees accepting some $16 million in contributions, thanks to a loophole in campaign finance law that allows limited liability companies to use a much higher contribution limit than corporations do. With the clock ticking before the legislative session comes to a close on June 16, groups like MoveOn.org and Common Cause New York called on Flanagan and his Republican colleagues who control the Senate to bring a bill to a vote that would close that loophole.

Flanagan did not speak at the press conference, but he did say in a statement that the legislation to close the loophole was a “red herring,” and instead said the state had bigger fish to fry if it were serious about addressing campaign finance reform, like addressing straw donors, for example.

We agree that this LLC loophole is not the end-all solution to cam-paign finance reform, but it is certainly a piece of it.

There is no doubt about the influence money has on elections and, later on, the votes of those who are elected. Perhaps the problem is so deeply rooted that holding press conferences like the one on Tuesday ends up being more like preaching to the choir than anything else. Some may go into office wanting to remain completely independent, but find that difficult under the pressure of the way our campaign contribution system works.

Whatever it may be, though, We the People have to find ways to unite with bigger numbers behind a common cause if we expect our elected leaders to rehabilitate their addiction to political money.

Proportion America’s electoral votes in electionsAs we quickly approach the

presidential election, we are again confronted with the pos-sible inequity of the winner-take-all state electoral voting process.

For example, in the year 2000, we witnessed an election debacle. The “loser” of the U.S. popular vote by about 550,000 votes, George W. Bush, was able to best his opponent Al Gore, simply because he received more votes in one county of one state: Florida. This then gave him a plurality of electoral votes nationwide and thus the presidency.

Then, in 2004, we saw the reverse nearly happen. That election loser, John Kerry could have won the presidency, had he received only about 140,000

more votes in one state: Ohio.This lopsided victory could

have occurred due to the cur-rent electoral process, even though his opponent retained about a 3 million vote nation-wide plurality.

The few times that this has happened in our nation’s history has caused us to question the validity of the electoral college itself. Yet, after a brief furor over this controversy, our country settles down to four more years of inaction.

In November, the U.S. could possibly experience a repeat of the 2000 and nearly 2004 elec-tion, where multimillions more could vote for one candidate and the “loser” still win, simply

because of the winner-take-all electoral vote system.

If the American political pro-cess refuses to completely elimi-nate this unjust electoral method, then it should at least revert to a proportional system. This way, every citizen’s vote would go to the candidate of their choice. It’s simply unfair for millions of vot-ers, especially in heavily popu-lated states such as California, New York, Texas or Florida, to have their votes negated because the opponent won a “squeaker” victory in one state.

The United States of America is in the midst of a contentious election cycle.

#SharethespareI am extremely thankful for all the good wishes

that have come my way since the article “Bon-ner donates kidney, gives gift of life,” ran in your newspaper. What started as a very personal and private decision to help a friend has grown into a public display that I certainly did not expect. Happily, the result of all the publicity has been an increased awareness of kidney disease and the call for people to “share the spare” by donating a kidney to someone in need.

As your story indicated, “more than 80,000 people are currently on the waiting list” for a new life-saving kidney and hundreds more are added each day. So, I encourage any healthy adult to be tested to see if they are a good candidate to be a donor. My friend Tom D’Antonio is recuperating well and his body has accepted the new kidney. He has expressed his gratitude to me so many times, but honestly, I am grateful to him for giving me the opportunity to really make a difference in someone’s life.

If any of your readers would like to learn more about how to “share the spare,” they can visit the United Network for Organ Sharing website at www.unos.org.

Finally, I would like to thank the Times Beacon Record Newspapers for helping to bring this very important issue to the forefront.

W e all have addictions. I don’t mean we’re all addicted to a narcotic, to alcohol or to some-

thing that can cause harm to us, to our families or to our communities.

We think of addictions as negatives, because they suggest a depen-dency or a need for something without which we find ourselves unbalanced, uncomfortable or unhinged.

There are plenty of positive addictions. Many of us are, for

better or worse, addicted to our chil-dren. We want them to succeed, to be happy, to live better lives than we’ve had and to have every opportunity to find their niche.

When they’re born, we become

addicted to the sound of their gig-gling and laughter, which helps us get through those sleepless nights just as effectively as a caffeinated beverage. That sound is more pleasant than the most magnificent music we’ve ever heard, than the calls of birds outside our windows in the morning, or than the school bell that signaled the end of another week and the start of a much-anticipated weekend.

Outside of the home, we can become addicted to victory, whether it’s at work, on a softball field where we are competing against a group of people from another company, or at a traffic light where we want to beat the car next to us to the on-ramp for the Long Island Expressway.

Our bodies become accustomed to these addictions. Runners receive chemical endorphins in the brain that give them a high, allowing them to run much longer than some-one whose would-be endorphins are knocked unconscious by alcohol or are far too overwhelmed from sugar overload to become active. When

you’re driving in extreme heat or cold and you see runners pushing themselves up a steep hill, they are feeding that addiction.

Speaking of feeding, we are ad-dicted to particular foods, or food groups. If we eat cookies every night, our bodies send signals to our brains to find those chocolate chip cookies. We can also become addicted to foods that are healthy for us, like broccoli, blueberries or gluten-free kale pizza.

We can also become addicted to long days of summer sun. When the fall and winter come, we might miss the light, craving it the way we would another cup of mid-afternoon coffee when we’re feeling run down through the day.

But is addiction really the right word? Aren’t these habits and not addictions? I see addictions and habits as a spectrum, somewhat akin to the discussion about what is normal. We all tend to believe we’re normal, but as we know from our own families and from the families we marry into, the range of normal

is broad. Every family has its crazy uncles, its eccentric aunts and its oddball distant cousins. Much as we might like to believe the grass is greener with other families, we know that the more we interact with extended family groups, the more likely we are to observe be-haviors that fall outside the range of what we consider normal.

So, if we recognize our addic-tions, can we change them?

Like any addiction, change is challenging. Plenty of support groups offer help, especially with addictions to alcohol, drugs or other substances. There are also groups like Jenny Craig, which offer to provide balanced meals that help people transition to a different diet.

Even without support groups, though, people can fundamentally change some of their addictions, often when they are so concerned with the happiness of someone else — a spouse, a child, a niece or a parent — that their own needs no longer come first.

Feeding addictions or changing habits?

The column I intended for this week has been put aside. This is a historic moment, and as a

journalist, with a front row on history, and as a woman in what many still think is a man’s job, I cannot let the moment pass without offering the recognition it surely de-serves. Finally, in my lifetime, a woman has become the presidential candidate of one

of the two major parties in the United States of America.

Although I have voted for can-didates of both parties in different presidential elections, depending which one I thought was better, this has nothing to do with party affili-ation. I would never pick party over

country. The triumph of this moment does have to do with a struggle for equality in governing that is as recent as my mother’s hard-won right to vote in the 1920s. Can you imagine a time, not prehistoric but merely one family generation back, when women could not even vote? Or earn careers in medicine, law, business, literature or the arts?

This has nothing to do with whether I like Hillary Clinton or don’t like Hillary Clinton, any more than whether I am a Republican or a Democrat. This turn of events feels like we are emerging from the dark ages and into the sunshine of the 21st century. And to be honest, I am sur-prised at how powerfully this moment affects me.

Yes, I came of age during “wom-en’s lib,” graduating from college at the time Betty Friedan’s book, “The Feminine Mystique,” was published. And yes, I was one of the early wives and mothers in our social circle to balance the needs of a family with those of a business, but frankly I

never thought of myself as a member of “the second sex,” or as a revolu-tionary. I was merely doing what for me “came naturally.” But throughout my life working these dual jobs, I have felt the contradictions within so-ciety about a woman’s “role.” Indeed, my own mother was dead set against my starting a newspaper, accusing me of “abdicating my responsibilities at home.” But I thought all that was long past.

Why shouldn’t a woman lead her party in a run for the presidency? If the population feels she is qualified, why shouldn’t she lead her coun-try as president? Now there is a lot more going on during this vindictive presidential campaign than women’s rights. In fact, I wasn’t so aware that the issue of women’s rights was play-ing a part. So much of the population is angry, frustrated, even frightened with how they are being governed by an obstructionist Congress and a rapidly changing economy.

Thus my surprise by my own reac-tion on the level of gender equality. I

still remember when Geraldine Fer-raro, who came to the New York Press Association as the keynote speaker when I was its president in the 1980s, declined my husband’s offer of a corsage. He had bought one for her and one for me, but she explained she “couldn’t look too feminine.”

I also recently remembered with a laugh, as I was recalling early history to my 21-year-old grandson, that I had been propositioned while eating alone in a dining room of a hotel before a convention was to be-gin there the next day. “Good girls don’t do that,” I was admonished, for dining solo. Lest I chalk up that encounter to a fluke, it happened again on the train trip home.

The past may be past, but it surely isn’t forgotten. And when I looked around the table last month at the board of directors meeting of the NY Press Association and realized that there were only two other women publishers in a room of 28 board members, I realized that the past isn’t even past. But clearly there is hope.
