LONG ISLANDER NEWSPAPERS: WINNERS OF FIVE N.Y. PRESS ASSOCIATION AWARDS IN 2008

The Annual Guide To HuntingtonBusiness 2010

Inside

Months after being caught in a messy feud over whetherthe Huntington highway superintendent has the right tohire staff without town board approval, the town allocatedmore than $20,000 to pay seven men for the work they didearlier this year while they thought they were on staff.

The town confirmed the accuracy of a U.S Department ofLabor form quantifying the services provided by the sevenmen at $20,359.54, and checks were cut prior to the June15 town board meeting, Highway Superintendent WilliamNaughton said.

“Did [the town] really save money? I don’t know, but I’mhappy the people will get the money they were owed in thelast six months,” Local 342 Long Island Public ServiceEmployees President Bill Hennessey said. The union repre-sents blue-collar workers employed by the Town ofHuntington.

The men worked as nonpermanent employees last sum-mer as well, but after the highway department moved tomake them full-time staff at the end of 2009, the townboard sued Naughton on Feb. 3, arguing he ignored a town-wide hiring freeze.

The town moved to withdraw its suit on March 3, butNaughton sued five days later, demanding a judgment that

his actions to hire the men involved in the case were lawfuland within his rights as an elected highway superintendent.

Each of the eight men Naughton allegedly tried to hirewere notified by letter from Jan. 15 to Jan. 19 and againfrom Jan. 26 to 27 that they were not employed by the town,were not placed on the payroll because there were no vacan-cies and that they were performing services at their ownrisk. Local 342 filed a complaint with the federalDepartment of Labor, beginning the process leading up tothe June 15 resolution.

“When you put people to work for you and you don’t paythem, you have protections. That’s what they have theDepartment of Labor for,” Councilman Mark Cuthbertsonsaid. “We’re not happy about the fact that this happened inthe first place, but we have to pay people who work.”

Five of the seven men now work as part-time nonperma-nent workers and can have those positions for six months atmost, Naughton said. Their pay is coming out of a separateaccount for seasonal workers, Huntington spokesman A.J.Carter said.

Naughton’s suit against the town is still pending, as thecourts decide whether his case can proceed, attorney A.Thomas Levin, of Garden City-based Meyer Suozzi, English& Klein P.C., said.

Neighbors Respond To Cry For HelpLocal uses donations from residents to purchase tents for victims of Haiti earthquake

By going door to door and sending let-ters to neighbors, a Dix Hills man wasable to raise enough money to buy 60tents for those affected by the earthquakein Haiti.

Frank Altenord, 53, who was born andraised in Haiti, raised $1,500 to supportfamilies abroad after visiting the countrydestroyed by the natural disaster.

“My wife and I went to Haiti to give thelittle amount of help that we could rightafter the earthquake in January. We re-turned to New York with heavy heartsknowing the catastrophe that we left be-hind. It was indescribable,” he wrote in aletter to his neighbors in February.

After leaving Haiti, he began raisingmoney that would support those who losttheir homes.

“It was very difficult to handle when Iwent the first time,” Altenord said. “Iwish I could do more but I was limited interms of resources.”

For one week in March, he returned to

Haiti to supply people and their familieswith tents. Because of the terrible weath-er conditions Haiti faces, including a

hurricane season ahead, Altenord feltthat tents would protect families from in-clement weather.

Before receiving the tents, Haitianfamilies’ only shelter came from towelsand sheets hanging from wood,makeshift protection that does not farewell in storms. Not only did he providefamilies with the tents, but he helpedbuild them as well.

To have tents that can functionally savefamilies from poor weather conditionswas something of a blessing for them. Af-ter one woman’s tent was built, Altenordrecalls turning back to look at her whilehe was walking away and seeing her pray.She had her arms open wide and waspraising God for the shelter.

Altenord’s good will doesn’t end withthe tents. He plans on going for a thirdtime in August to start another project,which will also protect against terribleweather.

“I have a plan to plant trees in Haiti,”he said, concerned about the hurricaneseason. “Especially with the hurricaneseason and the fact that there’s no trees tosustain the lands, it’s easy to have a dis-aster again.”

Frank Altenord, left, used the donations he received from his neighbors in Dix Hills to pur-chase tents for families in Haiti still devastated by the earthquake nearly six months later.

World Cup mania… Our excitement for the WorldCup soccer competition was short-lived, and betweenyou and me, that’s just fine. As much as I was thrilledto see the U.S. actually makinga decent showing in the sport,I don’t know how much Icould tolerate those British an-nouncers calling the games. Nothing against Brits, ofcourse; I just found their intonations better for lullingme into a coma than for getting excited over soccer ac-tion. Of course they probably think baseball announc-ers are too loud, talk too much about nothing, and getunduly excited when the Yankees win… Th-e-e Yee-aaank-keees win!

Vuvuzela envy… You know what the most contro-versial thing is at this year’s World Cup other than thedippy referees? Meet the vuvuzela. It’s a 2-foot longblowing horn commonly used by soccer fans in SouthAfrica. With a sound akin to angry bees, swarming lo-custs and a goat about to be slaughtered, they’reblamed for hearing loss, spreading cold and flu bugsand driving viewers on this side of the pond nuts.Hundreds have complained and ESPN is mixing theiraudio to cut them out. It’s gotten so bad that the iconicchalkboard outside Yankee Peddler expressed theirdispleasure with the things for all to see on New YorkAvenue. All I want to know is this – where can I getone cheap to strap on to the Buick? Don’t look at melike that… sometimes a GM horn just doesn’t cut themustard.

Taxing times… I just read that New York lawmak-ers are probably going to vote in another tobacco tax.Now I’m not exactly ready to join the tobacco lobbyand think it would be better if all smokers quit. But Ihave to point out that the governor and the legislatureare just taking the easiest route on this one. Instead ofbuckling down and containing their appetite forspending, they take it out on the easiest victims. It’scalled a sin tax and the rationale seems to be choosingthe least argumentative victim to carry the load. Afterall, who’s going to stand up for smokers? They do thesame thing with alcoholic beverages. You know, ifthings are really so bad, the legislature should just goahead and tax everybody a little bit more instead ofmaking so-called sinners carry all the water. But you’ll

never see them passing an extra tax on baby formulatax or orthopedic shoes.

Summer in the park… Keepthose blankets and lawn chairspacked and ready to go by theback door; Huntington’s SummerArts Festival season starts thisweekend. Opening night features

former Saturday Night Live music man G.E. Smithand the shows continue nightly (except Mondays)through mid-August. As much as I enjoy a celebrity,you’re more likely to find me and my picnic basket onthe hillside at Heckscher Park when the local perform-ers play. I love those Sweet Adelines, Red Hot Mamasand Huntington Men’s Chorus shows – and after lastseason’s performance, I’ll never miss a Long IslandPhilharmonic show. Our local groups may not havethe polish and sophistication of so-called seasonedprofessionals, but they are friends. And hey, thoseshows are plenty good enough for me. Check out theshow schedule online at www.huntingtonarts.org.

Too many rings… Warning. If your phone startsringing off the hook, call your bank. That’s the strangewarning FBI issued this week. Apparently this is thenewest scheme of financial frauders who use auto-di-aling programs to overwhelm your phone line withcalls. When you answer the call you hear dead air,some recorded message, advertisement or phone sexmenu. Some people get so fed up they change theirnumber. Don’t do it, because that’s exactly what thescammers want you to do. You see, it’s a diversion thatprevents your financial institutions from verifying ac-count changes and transactions. This gives anyonewho has hacked into your account time to transfer allof your money from your accounts to theirs. Andtheirs are most likely untraceable, offshore ones, so bewary. And if your phone starts ringing off the hook,call your bank, your financial advisor, your broker, andanyone else who you’ve trusted with accounts.

Hundreds gathered at Huntington’sCinema Arts Centre to pay their respectto arts visionary Vic Skolnick and givetestimony to his lasting legacy.

The memorial tribute brought togetherfilmmakers, actors, arts leaders, politi-cians and local residents on Saturday inmemory of the Cinema Arts Centre(CAC)’s co-founder and co-director whodied June 10. He was 81.

“The first thing I thought when Iwalked into the theater is, it would havemade Vic so happy to see a packed house,”said CAC co-founder Charlotte Sky, hispartner of nearly 60 years.

As she recounted his life and his questto share knowledge and the history of thecinema in the eulogy, her words were si-multaneously broadcast live across theCAC’s three theaters, the Sky Room andoutside, where the overflow stood.

“Vic didn’t realize how loved he was.One night I said to him, ‘Vic, do you real-ly think we’re making a difference in peo-ple’s lives with all these films they’veseen?’” Sky said, met by a thunderousround of applause.

“There were so many people whoselives were made better because of Vic,”said Vic and Sky’s son, Dylan Skolnick,later explaining, “I think everything hedid was an attempt to give others the ex-perience he had of breaking free of theworld, to expand their world view, tobreak free from tunnel vision.”

Many recounted the CAC’s early days ina Huntington dance studio with filmsshown on bedsheets with a rented projec-tor, and then a Huntington gymnasiumbefore moving to its current location in1977.

“In the official history, there is muchmade of the original story of projectingfilms on a bed sheet. That hanging bedsheet was like raising a flag to me; thecinema was going to change the world

one person, one film at atime,” said Kevin Duggan, astaff member from the be-ginning.

Duggan recalled how in-dependent filmmakerswould flock to the CAC witha 16mm reel in hopes of get-ting screened, includingnow-famous Hal Hartley.Hartley spoke of Vic and thecinema, providing his earlyeducation in film before hedebuted his first film, “TheUnbelievable Truth,” therein 1989.

“[Vic] took my hand, shaking his headand said, ‘My God, young man, what doyou think you are doing?’ Now I can an-swer that, Vic. I was only doing whatbrave, creative and imaginative peoplehad taught me: living to work rather thanworking to live. Vic was one of those peo-ple,” Hartley said.

Actress Isabella Rossellini spoke of the

importance of Vic’s work inshowing independent filmson Long Island and its im-pact on the industry.

“It is for people like Char-lotte, Vic and now Dylanthat the cinema is what itis… a place that protects,promotes and encouragesfilmmakers to expand andfind new frontiers,” Rosselli-ni said.

Jazz saxophonist PremikRussell Tubbs, who per-forms monthly at the CAC,took the stage to play a spon-

taneous riff in honor of Vic, whom hecalled a newfound, now eternal, friend.Charlotte Koons and Roger Senser eachread brief poems in Vic’s memory beforea video montage tribute was played.

“I miss him so much. I wish he was stillhere. I know he would love that we’rehonoring him by carrying on his vision,”Dylan said as it was announced he would

be stepping into the roles of film curator,film historian and film educator.

“Together we will continue to keep Vic’sdream alive,” Sky said.

Several members of the CAC’s board oftrustees spoke of Vic’s traditional pre-filmspeech about how memberships are thelifeline of the cinema, encouraging atten-dees to sign up for the membership driveongoing through June 30.

“We sit in Vic’s living, vital legacy,” saidboard member Marty Haas. “The futuredepends as much on you and I as it doesCharlotte, Dylan, the volunteers and CACstaff members. It depends on a communi-ty effort, which is exactly the way Vicwanted it to be.”

In lieu of flowers or gifts, the CAC hasasked for contributions to the Vic Skol-nick Memorial Fund, which will be usedto help support future operations. Checkscan be sent to: Cinema Arts Centre, 423Park Ave., Huntington, NY 11743.

TOWN OF HUNTINGTON

Vowing To Keep Vic’s Vision AliveHundreds show to pay their final respects to Cinema Arts Centre co-founder

A band of patients filed a lawsuit earli-er this month claiming their formerMelville orthodontist illegally hid them ascreditors.

Dr. Stuart Balaban has been the targetof scathing attacks on various Internetblogs and websites since late March forallegedly accepting lump sums of pay-ment for work never performed. AttorneyMichael Siegel, of Manhattan-basedSiegel & Siegel, filed a lawsuit on behalf of12 families on June 7.

“He didn’t list any of his patients. You’rerequired to list them as a debt or list themas a contract that still has performance onthem,” Siegel said.

David Slavin, one of the 12, said he paidBalaban $6,600 for orthodontic work onhis son and daughter. In exchange for thelarge payments, the dentist promised theMerrick man lifetime treatment for hischildren at no additional charge.

Slavin said he works longer hours as a

chiropractor trying to come up with moremoney for his new orthodontist. The fam-ily has also made several cuts, includingtaking a car off the road.

“My kids are undergoing treatment. Iam paying monthly and that bothers mebecause I already paid for my kids’ ortho-dontics,” Slavin said. “At this point, we’rejust sitting and waiting because they’redoing the law stuff.”

He is just one of hundreds defraudedby Balaban, Siegel said. Just a dozen fam-ilies are listed, with about 20 child pa-tients affected, the attorney added, butmore victims may join the suit.

“People call us all the time,” Siegel said.“There’ll come a time when the clientgroup has to be closed, but we haven’treached that point yet.”

According to the lawsuit, Balaban per-sonally filed for bankruptcy relief on Dec.11, 2009 through Melville-based attorneyPeter Corey. The orthodontist listed 20creditors and admitted to owing morethan $412,000. He listed fewer than$50,000 in assets, including a 2004

BMW X3 and Citibank checking accountcontaining $2,500, both exempt. His pri-vate corporation was also listed, but withno value.

At the time, Corey said his client in-tended to care for patients on an ongoingbasis before his relationship with anotherorthodontist fell through.

“It’s unfortunate, because Dr. Balabanhad a plan in place to treat all these pa-tients. After the bankruptcy he was un-able to treat the patients,” Corey said.

Siegel said Balaban closed his Melvilleoffice and moved into Dr. Jacqueline Fu-lop-Goodling’s Woodbury office in No-vember 2009. Through the winter, the at-torney said, he continued to solicit new pa-tients, claiming he had just lost his lease. Itwasn’t until March 23 when his bankrupt-cy discharge was granted that he told themhe was bankrupt, Siegel added.

Balaban, of Dix Hills, did not returnmessages for comment.

After news of the orthodontist’s bank-ruptcy came out, Fulop-Goodling issueda statement through a spokeswoman,

claiming she was also duped, never re-ceived a dime from Balaban, and wouldhave to charge his patients again for con-tinued treatment.

A number of former patients speculat-ed online that both orthodontists were in-volved, even alleging it was a scam con-cocted between them.

Siegel said he would begin investigat-ing both once he had Balaban’s bankrupt-cy discharge reversed.

“I’m going to follow the money. If Dr.Jacquie got the money and has the obli-gation to treat the people, then she hasthe responsibility to give it back,” he said.

Fulop-Goodling’s spokeswoman didnot return requests for comment.

According to the U.S. BankruptcyCourt, the adversary proceeding is wait-ing for Balaban to respond before it pro-ceeds under Judge Dorothy Eisenberg inCentral Islip.

“Either he’s going to default because hedoesn’t have the money or he’ll fight it,”Siegel said. “I served it two weeks ago; hehas a month to respond.”

The Huntington Town Board moved a vote on the490-unit AvalonBay Huntington Station housing devel-opment until July 6 before residents protested and crit-icized the proposal at town hall last Tuesday.

The vote, initially planned for the evening of June 15,was pushed to July 6 after confusion ensued over whenthe vote would – and legally, could – be held after a 90-day extension for deliberation was enacted May 17.

Again citing concerns over density, traffic, schoolimpacts and sewer capacity, several dozen residents,including members of the Conservative Society for Action(CSA) picketed outside Town Hall Tuesday, accusing theboard of trying to sneak through a vote in June on a pro-posal they thought would be settled in September.

“This Avalon project and changing the zoning lawswill affect tens of thousands of people… you guys are sly,though,” Huntington resident Chris O’Donnell said.“Jam it down our throats like the day laborer site… if anyof you board members had a conscience or a care at allabout Huntington, please vote no on the Avalon proj-ect… don’t let us down, disgust us and sell us out likeyou have over and over again.”

In a June 15 letter to Huntington residents, fourboard members – although Councilman Mark Mayokadid not sign his name, he stressed he agreed with itsmessage – rebutted a Newsday article that stated thevote would be held in September.

“There was a feeling that perhaps we should not pro-ceed tonight to give people the benefit of the doubt,” saidSupervisor Frank Petrone, who pulled the vote duringthe June 15 town board workshop. “The resolution wasto extend to September the 90-day period, not to have itvoted on in September. I think we explained that, andpeople understood that.”

Since the initial March hearing, the proposal has beentrimmed from 530 units to 490, reducing the density to18.5 units per acre. Revised plans call for one less build-ing, fewer parking spaces and more open space in thedevelopment.

Three-quarters of the units will be sold at market value,while the 122 income-restricted units will be broken downinto affordable, workforce and moderate-income units.

Affordable rental units are being set aside for appli-

cants with 50 percent of themedian income, while work-force is 80 percent of medianincome and moderate is 110percent. Estimated monthlyrents for a one-bedroom unitwould be $1,018 for anaffordable apartment, $1,629for workforce one-bedroomand $1,961 for moderate,according to a town factsheet. Estimated sale pricesfor income-restricted two-bedroom units is $183,250for affordable and $275,000for workforce; there are nomoderate for-sale units.

The developer has alsopledged $2.25 million to anumber of Huntington enti-ties, including $1.5 million forthe Huntington School District

and $500,000 for the town’s Economic DevelopmentCorporation, which could be used to underwrite develop-ing EDC's proposed commercial building at the intersec-tion of Northridge Street and New York Avenue or fundeconomic development in Huntington Station. Avalon hasagreed to spend up to $25,000 for a bus stop/enclosure atthe AvalonBay development if the HART bus systemadministrators request it; $75,000 for the Friends of theHuntington Train Station; $25,000 for the Family ServiceLeague; and $50,000 in donations to community organi-zations. It also agreed to sponsor the Andy ForsbergMemorial Lacrosse Tournament for five years.

Whistle-blowing, Centerport resident John Fox pickets out-side Town Hall on June 15 to protest AvalonBay’s proposedHuntington Station development with about three-dozenresidents.

What began as an eye-opening co-op atBoston City Hall drew Northport resi-dent Sheryl Randazzo to elder law, andher passion has taken her to the top ofSuffolk County’s professional law associ-ation.

Randazzo, 43, was installed as the102nd president of the 3,800-memberSuffolk County Bar Association at Hol-brook’s Villa Lombardi restaurant onJune 3.

Her journey leading to that day beganat Northeastern University in the late1980s, where she studied history and po-litical science. A co-op position at BostonCity Hall dealing with tenant’s rightsdrew many elderly Bostonians, an experi-ence that “opened her eyes” to whatwould become known as elder law.

“I was always drawn to law,” Randazzosaid. “It wasn’t until I came upon a posi-tion at Boston City Hall that it really feltlike it connected for me… I wanted towork with seniors, help them plan, antic-ipate crisis and deal with crisis.”

A 1992 graduate of the Catholic Uni-versity of America’s Columbus School ofLaw, Randazzo began her legal career in1993 as an associate/law clerk forMelville-based Garcia & Stallone beforebecoming an associate with Ronald Fa-toullah in 1995. She hung her own shin-gle in 1996 and partnered with her broth-er, Ralph, in 2000, forming Randazzo &

Randazzo, which has offices in Hunting-ton and Manhattan. Their practice focus-es on elder law and estate planning andadministration – drafting wills andtrusts, long-term care planning,guardianship, Medicaid/Medicare mat-ters and the needs and rights of the eld-erly and disabled.

Now as the leader of the Suffolk Bar,Randazzo said she’s able to give backmore to the organization that was so

helpful to her when she opened a privatepractice in 1996.

“I have the most respectful colleagueswho are willing to share their knowledge,experience and perspective,” she said.“Any experience I find myself interactingwith attorneys has been so enriching.”

For 2010, the Suffolk Bar has adoptedthe theme “In Celebration of Member-ship,” with a focus on helping membersand Suffolk County during the recessionthrough practice management and well-ness awareness events, by maintainingthe Suffolk County Academy of Law’sprogramming, bolstering service avail-ability and improving networking.

“My goal is to enhance the sense ofcommunity that’s there, just bring morepeople into that circle of leaders andbroaden people’s participation in thingswe’re often doing quite well,” Randazzosaid.

A member of the Suffolk Bar since1993, Randazzo has participated in nu-merous philanthropic efforts, andchaired and co-chaired numerous com-mittees. She also belongs to many legalassociations in Suffolk County and NewYork and has been a trustee on the Suf-folk County Academy of Law since 2003,where she was associate dean from 2001-2003.

In addition to extensive involvement inboth public service and legal associa-tions, Randazzo is a frequent lecturerwho speaks to her colleagues and thepublic about elder law, estate planning

and practice management, and profes-sional ethics.

She said being a mother to her daugh-ter, Ruby, is “her proudest role yet.”

“I’m hoping to demonstrate to otheryoung professionals that you can’t waitfor your life to get in order to accomplishother things. You have to have a globalview,” she said. “A lot of women put offhaving children until much later… I don’tthink you have to do that to do it all.”

Ruby, who will celebrate her thirdbirthday on July 10, has even benefitedthe professional organization mom nowleads, Randazzo said.

“She loves the Bar Association; sheknows her way around,” Sheryl said ofRuby. “She’s a real asset… she makes peo-ple smile.”

For the second consecutive year, thetown’s annual budget review has yieldedsignificant savings which were transferredinto contingency budgets.

Led by Huntington Comptroller TracyYogman, the town board agreed to movemore than $921,000 into reserves.

Yogman’s office sat down with depart-ment heads and takes a line-by-line look atwhat can be trimmed from their budgets.

“It’s an ongoing review of spending forthe year,” Councilman Mark Cuthbertsonsaid. “We have to take a conservative lookat our budget numbers – budgets are livingdocuments. We have to enact them as aplan for a year, but then you have to moni-tor them.”

A result of the review, Yogman said, isthat savings are moved to contingencyaccounts. The only way to spend thatmoney is with town board approval.

“We have spent less than we budgetedand this resolution prevents us fromspending it somewhere else,” Huntingtonspokesman A.J. Carter said.

Yogman attributed budget savings infuel lines to conservative estimates holdingpositions open throughout town govern-ment has also led to reductions in healthinsurance costs.

Councilman Mark Mayoka, whose reso-lution to enact a 5-percent, across-the-board cut to the general fund for 2010 andenforce a 5-percent budget-to-budgetreduction for 2011 failed to receive a sec-ond at several town board meetings,

praised the 1-percent reduction as a firststep. However, he criticized $29,560 inincreases for Town Attorney John Leo’soffice as an example of excess spending.

“The most glaring example is in the legaldepartment, which has exceeded its budg-et by $30,000, Mayoka said on June 15.“Do we really need to spend more moneyon lawyers?”

Yogman said the expenses are parityincreases and do not reflect an increase instaff levels.

Mayoka said he hopes to work with thecomptroller to further cut spending in“about 10 different areas” by, for example,instituting worker productivity-enhancingmeasures, creating programs to boost ener-gy efficiency and possibly offering a buyoutprogram for some department heads. Thecouncilman has promised to hold a budgetsymposium in the coming months.

A reduction of more than $400,000 fromthe town highway department’s budget drewcriticism from Highway SuperintendentWilliam Naughton. He accused the town ofpulling the money to plug other financialholes while depriving him of staff and fund-ing needed to do his job.

“I think that [Supervisor] Frank[Petrone] is so deep in debt or whateverpotential of debt… keep this money to keeptheir bond rating from being reduced,”Naughton said. “The whole thing… abunch of kids wouldn’t do something thatstupid.”

Councilwoman Susan Berland offered afar less nefarious explanation – the high-way department savings are attributable tohigh-salaried individuals retiring and

being replaced by lower-paid, youngrecruits.

“When there were rehirings in 2010,there were savings because they wererehired at a lower step,” she said “Thesalaries are the savings from the retirees to

the new hires. We’re all very conscious ofwhere we spend money and how we spendit… For town government to provide theservices we provide and not cut at all whilesaving nearly $1 million, that is a reallygood thing.”

Even years after their son died of braincancer, the Gaynes family from Melvillehas made it their mission to help otherchildren in need through their nonprofitorganization, Chillin’ With Adam.

The group started in 2005, a year afterAdam Gaynes, 11, died, and looks tomake “the kids’ experiences a little easierin the hospital,” said David Gaynes, fa-ther and co-founder of the nonprofit.

“Our son Adam was very strong and wefought for 11 years because he wanted tolive. We felt the best way to honor himwould be to start a nonprofit and maketheir lives a bit easier,” David said. “It’s adevastating thing for the whole family.Not a lot of money goes to research, so it’sstill challenging families.”

The Gaynes family raises between$200,000 and $250,000 per year, andgives the money to those who need it.

David and his wife, Arlene, raise moneyand use the funds to do family fun daysand work with hospitals.

They recently took children from Mon-tefiore Hospital in the Bronx to Rye Play-land, an annual event that happens inJune. The family also works with Brook-dale Hospital and NYU Hospital.

The Gaynes family raises the moneythrough two major events – a soireescheduled for Aug. 4 at the Swan Club inGlen Landing, N.Y. and a bar night in thecity planned for the fall. The soiree,which will be celebrating its fifth year,makes between $150,000 and $200,000per year, and they hope to continue mak-ing the same amount.

“The rest [of the donations] arethroughout the year,” David said. “We’vehad schools do car washes for us.”

All the money raised goes to charity.Since the beginning, the family hasraised around $950,000.

“Every dollar raised goes to charity, butwe also have a fund that disperses mon-ey,” David said. “We’ve done all types ofthings. If it’s reasonable, we do it.”

All this, they do this in honor of Adam,through the nonprofit organization andthe fund in his name.

“We want to continue to honor hismemory. It doesn’t take a lot. Every dol-lar counts,” David said. “Adam had a re-ally infectious personality and he con-tinues to make a difference one differ-ence at a time.”

TOWN OF HUNTINGTON

Vietnam Wall To Stop In TownCommunity members will soon get

the chance to experience a WashingtonD.C. memorial without even leavingHuntington this fall.

The Dignity Memorial Vietnam Wall,a three-quarter-scaled replica of theVietnam Veterans Memorial inWashington D.C. that has been touringthe nation since 1984, will be coming toHuntington in October.

“It’s in very high demand,” saidCouncilman Mark Cuthbertson, whohas been working to secure the wall’strip to Huntington for two years now.

The 240-foot wall, which has 58,000names written on it, is known to have alarge audience turn out to view it.

“In other towns, it’s gotten up to35,000 visitors in a three-day week-end,” Cuthbertson said. “We’re opti-mistic that it will be as well-receivedhere as the most popular places before.”

The councilman feels the wall memo-rial will be a great experience for com-munity members in the town.

“We have a very large veterans popu-lation and I think the wall would bevery much appreciated by them and theHuntington community at large,” hesaid. “It’s important to Vietnam vets inparticular, who returned from serviceand were the subject of scorn. It’s real-ly important to recognize their serviceand give them their dues.”

The wall, which will stand at PeterNelson Park in South Huntington, isexpected to arrive from Staten Island

with a motorcycle brigade on Sept. 28. It will be available to the publicfrom Oct. 1-3 before moving on to WestIslip.

The Dignity Memorial Vietnam Wall, a repli-ca of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in thenation’s capital, will be displayed in Hunt-ington this October.



Opinion‘Not the types set up by the printer return their impression, the meaning, the main concern.’

Real Issues Or Just Stunts?

DEAR EDITOR:I would like to offer my per-

spective with regards to Avalon-Bay’s proposed development inHuntington Station and the cur-rent debate happening withinour community about it, bothonline on two Facebook sites(Say No to Avalon Bay and Par-ents of Huntington), as well aswhat is printed in the newspa-pers and what is said at townboard meetings.

When I learned that a rallywas being planned to march atTown Hall recently, I got onFacebook to find out why andwas told that “corruption” wastaking place in Town Hall withregards to the day the votewould occur on AvalonBay. My-self and another poster pointedout that the resolution was for“up to 90 days” and besides,how could one assume that thevote was going to take place onSept. 5 when it was a Sunday?They chose to ignore these factsand proceeded with the marchanyway. So I had to ask myselfwhy and came to the conclusionthat politics must have been thetrue motive! (Read: an anti-democratic political tactic.)

As I continued to post onFacebook, I got attacked (read:political tactics on a communityactivist) whenever I offered factsabout the AvalonBay projectand other information, like thatthe MTA had identified the

piece of land for use as a railyard. These facts can be foundat www.mta.info/mta/plan-ning/portj/index.html (clickHuntington to Greenlawn) aswell as under the East Side Ac-cess documents at www.mta.in-fo/capconstr/esas/ (see pages S7and S15 of the FEIS project doc-ument).

I live in Huntington Station inHighview, an affordable housingcomplex, that is located rightacross the street from the Hunt-ington train station. So I am aYIMBY for Avalon as I preferthat project to be built on thatpiece of land rather than taking achance that a rail yard could endup there. In addition, I see manybenefits to the Avalon projectthat will move the communityforward with revitalization, but Iwon’t focus on those here.

I have been actively involvedwith the revitalization efforts ofHuntington Station since 2003when I joined with the folksfrom Huntington CountryFarms to fight the proposed railyard when it was first presentedto the community.

Since then, my involvement inHuntington Station issues hasincluded serving as a charteredmember of a civic group calledFriends of Huntington TrainStation. We worked with theLIRR to renovate the interior ofthe station for its Centennialwhich occurred in 2009. Wehave also been the catalyst to getthe town to address the im-provements needed at the twoparking garages (signs are post-

ed there now showing that Fed-eral Stimulus dollars were ap-plied for to make this happen).Our group’s mission is to contin-ue to improve the station.

So I would just like to clearup one other piece of inaccuratepiece of information goingaround, and that is that we ac-cepted a $75,000 bribe tochange our minds about Avalon.AvalonBay shares our mission toimprove the aesthetics of thestation, since the residents of itshousing complex will be livingnear the station and using it ascommuters. So Friends of Hunt-ington Train Station has neveropposed Avalon and I was notinvolved in any negotiations ofwhat occurred between theTown of Huntington and Avalonto channel funds for the land-scaping improvements that ourgroup is still pushing for. Thetown leases the land from theMTA and that is why it falls tothe town to fund these improve-ments and not the MTA.

Another initiative that I am acharted member of is the forma-tion of the Lost NeighborhoodCommittee. We recently servedon the panel for the HistoricalSociety’s opening reception for“From House Calls to Hospitals”which featured Dr. Samuel Te-ich’s office located in Hunting-ton Station at 1090 New YorkAve. At that event, we an-nounced the launch of our web-site, www.portraitofalostneigh-borhood.org/index.html, andthe fact that we are now work-ing with the history teachers of

School District #3 to bring “lo-cal history” projects to the stu-dents to learn more about theHuntington Station communitywhere their schools are located.

So just to be clear, my presentrole in this Avalon debate is toensure that facts and the meritsof the project are being putforth for Town of Huntingtonresidents to make up their ownminds about where they standon the issue, and to keep thepolitics out of it.

Sinful Self-Promotion

DEAR EDITOR:In my mailbox [yesterday] I

received a four-page, four-colorglossy mailer from Congress-man Steve Israel entitled “Hav-ing troubles making ends meet.”It was “prepared published andmailed at taxpayer expense.”This was a blatant politicalmailer with no substance andno benefit to the taxpayer. It wasa self-promotion of an incum-bent who wants to get re-elected

at the taxpayers’ expense. Isn’t it the current Congress

that is wasting our tax dollarsand isn’t that why the middleclass is having trouble makingends meet? Congressman Israelin this mailer is not “working tohelp Long Island families” withthis expensive mailer. He is onlyintroducing us to his Twitter,Facebook and YouTube ac-counts, at taxpayer expense.

Why doesn’t he use his enor-mous campaign account for thistype of self-promotion? I amagain convinced that we need torid ourselves of career politi-cians like Mr. Israel, who haveno problem using our hard-earned money while we are“having trouble making endsmeet” to promote themselvesand their self-serving future fi-nancial security at taxpayer ex-pense. In the mailer it statesthat “Congressman Steve Israelis working to help Long Islandfamilies” but what this mailer isreally doing is working to helpSteve Israel get re-elected.

Account Executives

At their meeting last Tuesday, Hunting-ton Town Board members voted to movemore than $900,000 into contingencybudgets. By placing it into contingency ac-counts, town board approval is needed forthe money to be spent.

While the move reflects a near-ly one-percent reduction inspending, it is in fact somewhatretroactive in that it reflects money notspent in the first half of the year. For truesavings to occur, the money must remainunspent. There’s no guarantees on that one.

We’d like to see those savings continueand at the end of the year, returned to the

general fund so that the tax levy is reducedby that amount. That is what we would calltrue savings, and if every taxing entity didthe same, might result in some real savingsfor taxpayers. When every level of govern-ment does the same – from school boards,

library boards and water districts,to villages, towns and on up – tax-payers may in fact begin to see

savings.For taxpayers whose only experience is

seeing their tax bills go up, it would be a re-freshing change. And in these economictimes, even the smallest savings can be sig-nificant.

Life&Style

Music and art are bountiful in New York City, butthere’s no need to spend $20 on a train ticket when youcan find world-class artists just down the street ready toshare their work for free.

That’s what organizers of the Plein Air Classical MusicFestival, sponsored by the Northport Arts Coalition, hopeto show residents.

“We want to foster the long and rich art historyNorthport has,” said Christine Darch, music festival coor-dinator. That history includes beatnik writer JackKerouac, who drank at a Northport bar, and Antoine deSaint-Exupéry, who finished writing “The Little Prince” inNorthport.

The Plein Air Painting Event begins Friday, withpainters spread out along the village green by NorthportHarbor and Main Street from 10 a.m. to dusk. Painterswill finish their works the following day by 5 p.m. Thefestival concludes Sunday with a reception from 11 a.m.to 3 p.m. and silent auction for the paintings at LaMantia Gallery, located at 127 Main Street in Northport.One painting will be awarded “Best in Show” by galleryowners.

Painters will work rain or shine, huddling underumbrellas or awnings if need be.

Artists are usually known to be recluses hiding out intheir studios, said Anthony Davis, Plein Air coordinator.Many only get to see these artists’ finished works and notthe emotional process of painting. With this event, theycan see Long Island artists create masterpieces whilemaking mistakes along the way, he said.

“They’re putting their hearts on the line here,” he said.All of the painters are willing to expose attendees to this

personal process, talking with onlookers while they cre-ate.

“It’s easy to be a studio painter where you can fix mis-takes,” Davis said. “Plein air painters don’t have that lib-erty.”

During the second day of the Plein Air Festival onSaturday, the Classical Music Festival begins by allowingpeople looking over painters’ shoulders to listen to world-class music in the background. Attendees are encouragedby the Northport Arts Coalition to bring blankets, chairsand picnic baskets, and spread out by the NorthportVillage Park Gazebo.

The music festival runs from 12:30-4 p.m., weatherpermitting, with Ron and Julie Meixsell singing opera at12:30 p.m., Rey Burns’ Crossroad fusing classical musicand jazz at 1 p.m., the Matthew Pierce Ensemble per-forming New American classical music at 2 p.m. andBassam Saba and The New York Arabic Orchestra per-forming classical Arabic music.

“They’re world-class musicians and they’re your neigh-bors,” Darch said. You might see them at the grocery storeone day and the next week they’re playing at CarnegieHall, she added.

These highly trained professionals are giving their timeto share their talent with their neighbors, said MatthewPierce, music director and event performer.

Pierce, who helped pick the musicians, said it would beeasy to put together a music festival, pulling in musiciansfrom the city, but there’s no need.

“You can just step outside your door and find out there’sa great violinist next door,” he said. “There’s more than

Ever wonder about the multiple forms of love?Question yourself and others and the relationships youshare with each of them?

Sandy Hinden, executive director of the Dix HillsPerforming Arts Center at Five Towns College, has writ-ten a book that describes seven types of love, from physi-cal love to spiritual love and everything in between, toanswer the questions you may have – just like he did. Heis promoting his “7 Keys to Love” at Book Revue tonight.

For over 30 years Hinden, also the president of theLong Island Men’s Center, has been writing and rewritingthis book to make it what it is now.

“I first started writing the book about 30 years ago,” hesaid. “I wanted to understand more about love myself andI was really trying to understand the many facets of love.I was very confused about love so I wanted to understandall the aspects of it.”

He proceeded to look through hundreds of books andcame up with 800 pages of quotes about love from differ-ent aspects. At that time, he had to use constructionpaper and ended up grouping them together in differentsections – self love, emotional love, physical love, familylove, platonic/altruistic/community love, creative love (orlove for arts and creativity) and universal/spiritual love.

“We all want love and all need love, and we need to firstbegin to love ourselves and develop our self love and selfesteem and develop communication so we can have rela-

tionships with others,” he said. That sort of love helps tocreate family love, which then helps sustain communities,and as he said, “can help the whole world, like nature, andhelp the world become more sustainable.”

“That requires us to be more kindhearted and gener-ous,” he added.

Along with his book, Hinden also wants to create a pro-gram called the “Beloved Community,” based on a quoteby Martin Luther King, Jr. The program would host anevent to honor people who have shown love in their com-munity. This year, multiple people including Long IslandMen’s Center Vice President and Pastor ThomasHumphrey and concert pianist Judith Alstadter will behonored. In the future, he would like to hold similarevents around the country.

“A dream would be to do this type of event in otherplaces around the country and help them create their ownbeloved community so they can do wonderful things withtheir local area,” he said.

Aside from the Dix Hills Performing Arts Center andthe Long Island Men’s Center, Hinden has worked withthe United Nations, where he worked on children’s gar-dens and peace museums.

“By doing that, I saw the power of doing love,” he said.“People should believe they have more power to bringmore love to their life and their friends and family andcommunity, and to love the arts and nature and to lovehumanity and the whole world. If they can believe theyhave the power to do that, it’d make a difference. Theyshould learn the skills and knowledge to bring more loveto their lives and to others and the whole world.”

The Beloved Community ceremony and a book-signingparty will begin at 7 p.m. on June 24 at Book Revue, locat-ed at 313 New York Ave. in Huntington.

The warm summer weather has not slowed the wild turkey the communi-ty has fondly named Oscar, who continues to stop traffic as he goesabout his business.

Why Did The Turkey Cross The Street?

Triangle Equities has been committed to excellence and integrity in the real estate sector for close to

30 years. The company continually develops and expertly manages a diverse portfolio that bene�its its

tenants and, most importantly, the communities in which its developments are located.

Here in Huntington, Triangle is committed to providing residents with much-needed housing alternatives

with Kensington Estates. Kensington is a proposed 80-unit, 55 and-over, luxury townhouse community

featuring tennis courts, a pool, a club house and other amenities. This proposed development will give

empty nesters the chance to downsize, stay in their home community and remain close to their families.

At a recent public hearing, Kensington received overwhelming support from the Huntington community.

Over 450 letters of support from local Huntington residents, a petition of support from the neighbors adja-

cent to the site, several hundred names of support from a social networking site and numerous speakers,

all verifying the need for such a community and demonstrating the positive response to Kensington.

This hearing demonstrated one of Triangle Equities key trademarks in that they endeavor to collaborate close-

ly with community leaders and their neighbors. The company is skilled at identifying needs in emerging and

underserved markets and ful�illing those key community needs with both public and private amenities.

Window shoppers can find a variety ofstores to peruse in Huntington village,but few offer the eclectic mix of Cow Overthe Moon.

Owner Joe Dennett opened shop onMain Street offering a unique mix ofsports memorabilia, gifts, decorativeaccessories, timeworks clocks, fine choco-lates and gift baskets approximately sixyears ago.

“My idea is, I wanted a store that wasinteresting to men, women and children. Iwanted a family to walk in and everyonehave something to be interested in,” he said.

Dennett used his retirement from therefrigeration industry as an opportunityto combine his three passions – collectingsports memorabilia and antiques, and hissweet tooth – to form Cow Over TheMoon. The storefront’s name is a tributeto his wife’s love for collecting cow keep-sakes in various forms, giving birth to thestore’s wide selection for collectors of allkinds, particularly sports memorabilia.

“A lot of people call the store a little bitof Cooperstown here in Huntington,because they have seen our collection

here and think it’s impressive,” Dennettsaid, referencing the home of theBaseball Hall of Fame.

Baseball fans can find almost any trad-ing card in existence, from retired hall offamers to the hottest rookies, framed jer-seys, autographed black-and-white pho-tos of the classics and a display case ofsigned baseballs. Each item sold under-goes a strict authenticity verificationprocess, the owner said. Don’t worry, ifreliving diamond days isn’t for you – foot-ball, basketball, hockey, tennis and golfare also part of the store’s mix.

“Sports is a big part of our social net-

work in this country,” Dennett said. “Evenif you’re not a sports fan, I see people whowould never buy a sports item go back [inthe store] because there’s history backthere.”

Dennett said one of his favorite thingsabout running Cow Over the Moon istalking with customers about their ownsports experiences and memories whenhe does custom sports framing, or shar-ing stories of the greats while lookingover the store’s collection.

“When a kid comes into the store, it’s alearning experience. It’s a chance forthem to learn how to keep a sports card,

how to touch and handle a sports card,and learn about old-time hall of famers,”the retiree said, as his collection startedwith his two sons forming a lifelong bondbetween them.

For those not interested in sports, CowOver the Moon carries a few antiques andnow offers gift items for all occasions,including Timeworks clocks, Bearingtonbears, artisan wine glasses, coffee mugs,snowglobes, candles and more. The selec-tion is ever changing.

Yet, if you just need a sweet treat, finechocolates and candies beckon from thedisplay case and from glass jars in a 1860sdrugstore cabinet – the perfect fix to putanyone over the moon.


TOWN OF HUNTINGTON

Putting Collectors Over The Moon Collectors shop offers something for everyone with sports memorabilia, gifts, chocolates

The mysterious meteor Walt Whitmandescribed 150 years ago in Leaves of Grasshas finally been solved, thanks to a teamof astronomers at Texas State University.

The team – comprised of Texas Statephysics professors Donald Olson andRussell Doescher, English professor Mar-ilynn S. Olson, and honors student Ava G.Pope – suspected that what Whitman de-scribed as a “strange huge meteor proces-sion” was something more than just a sin-gle comet or meteor.

For years, astronomers have attributedwhat Whitman saw to Leonid meteorshowers in 1833, 1858 or to a fireball thatoccurred in 1859. However, the timeframe Whitman references in his poem“Year of the Meteors (1859-1860)” doesnot match up with any of these events. Ol-son and his team were determined to findthe event Whitman witnessed.

“This phenomenon, the meteor proces-sion described by Whitman, is somethingthat I have been working on for morethan a decade,” Olson said. “Back in 1994,I started teaching an honors course called‘Astronomy in Art, History and Litera-ture.’ While putting together material forthose class meetings, it became clear thatWalt Whitman was a very rich source fordescriptions of the sky that were not justbeautifully written but were also unusual-

ly specific and detailed.”Whitman’s attention to detail led Olson

and his team to attempt to find whatspecifically the poet had witnessed. Thebreakthrough occurred, according to Ol-son, when he discovered a reproductionof a Frederic Church painting on the backof a catalogue. At that time, it becameclear to Olson that both Church andWhitman along with thousands of othereyewitnesses throughout the northeast-ern U.S., had witnessed the same phe-nomenon – occurring on July 20, 1860.

“This is the 150th anniversary of theevent that inspired both Whitman andChurch,” Olson said. “It was an Earth-grazing meteor procession.”

A meteor procession, according to theteam’s report of findings in Sky and Tel-escope magazine, occurs when “anEarth-grazing meteor fragments early inits encounter with the atmosphere, cre-ating multiple meteors traveling in near-ly identical paths.” This occurrence isfairly rare, and has occurred just threetimes other than the event Whitman and

Church witnessed.Whitman also referenced the Great

Comet of 1860, providing further evi-dence that the event witnessed was the1860 meteor procession.

HISTORY

Whitman’s Meteor Finally DiscoveredTexas State University astronomers uncover poet’s references in Leaves of Grass

This Frederic Church painting that records the meteor procession that Whitman referencesin Leaves of Grass.

Many thought the Leonid meteor shower of1833 was the event Whitman described.However, the Texas State team discoveredthat this was not what Whitman was refer-encing in “Year of the Meteors.”

Tips For Going Green

New Zealanders spent the past week is-land hopping all over metropolitan NewYork – including across Huntington.

The group of 26 traveled to Long Is-land as part of a Friendship Force Inter-national home-stay exchange program.

Friendship Force is an organizationmade up of 346 clubs in 59 countriesthat tries to encourage peace by pro-moting cultural understanding andglobal friendships.

The visitors from Marlborough, NewZealand were hosted and entertained by40 members of the Long Island Friend-ship Force club, many of whom live inHuntington. They visited Oheka Castlein Cold Spring Harbor, New York Citylandmarks, the Nassau County Art Mu-seum in Roslyn, the West Hamptons,Sagamore Hill in Oyster Bay and Bay-crest Beach in Huntington.

As they toured the house and groundsof Oheka Castle, one of the New Zealan-ders was awed by how much historythere was on Long Island. New Zealand,which has only been a country for lessthan 200 years, doesn’t have nearly asmuch, she said.

Barry Bridges, the New Zealand ex-change director, said the best part oftraveling with Friendship Force wasmeeting and living with local people.

“That’s something we as touristswould never see,” he said.

Eli Bluestone, Bridges’ host fromHuntington, echoed his sentiments.

“It’s faces, not places,” Bluestone said.Bonne Gettinger, of Huntington Bay,

has only been a club member for twoyears and hasn’t traveled abroad with theLong Island club, but enjoys spendingtime with their international visitors.

“I think it’s always interesting to ex-

change ideas and learn about other cul-tures,” Gettinger said.

The Long Islanders were entertainedby the phrases their visitors used, like“shrimp on the Barbie,” while one of thethings that surprised Bridges aboutLong Island was its high populationdensity and traffic. New Zealand doesn’thave traffic like this, he said.

“We haven’t even taken them out dur-ing rush hour,” exclaimed host EmmaBluestone.

Mike Harris, a former “panelbreaker,”or automotive mechanic, noticed a bigpart of his life was the same in America

as his own country. Harris, who ownedan automotive shop, visited one onLong Island and said the equipmentused there was the same as he used.

The Long Island club is always wel-coming newcomers, and the trips arequite reasonably priced, Emma said.Members have to pay a couple hundreddollars to the international organizationand the host club and then pay for theirairfare. Members don’t have to travel;they can just host guests and attendother cultural events with the group,she said. Anyone interested in joiningcan call Emma at 516-367-4208.

Members of the Long Island Friendship Force Club and the New Zealand club listen to a tourguide tell them about the history of Oheka Castle in Huntington.

They call it marketing. For our pur-poses, let’s consider it the magic formulathat instills energy and productivity inyour business. It goes far beyond thefancy logo design you hang over yourdoor and place on your business cards.Your website, the advertisements youplace in the media, and even the fancyexperiments with social media are not asimportant as the simple basics of mar-keting needed to build a strong founda-tion for your business.

Why are some companies more suc-cessful than those they compete with?And why do the owners of so many busi-nesses refuse to learn from their ownmistakes? The rules of marketing suc-cess are simple, but that doesn't meanthey are always easily followed. In busi-ness and in life, we are often drawn tothe promise of instant, easy success.Wise business owners cannot allow the“hot topic” of the season to distract them

toward ineffective programs that do notdeliver positive results.

Twitter and Facebook are not theanswers for everyone. Each business hasits own unique strengths, weaknessesand needs. The secret to any magician’sact is that there is really no such thing asmagic. My friend and former clientDavid Copperfield may be the most pop-ular magician of our time. As extrava-gant as his “tricks” appear to be, thismaster performer has focused his suc-cess on the basics. Yes, he works veryhard – but by focusing on the basics. Hemaintains a simple formula that hasresulted in a monumental career bydelivering the product his audienceappreciates and buys.

So how does this relate to your busi-ness? Whatever business you’re in,chances are you feel you know your busi-ness well.

You may own a restaurant and havehired a terrific chef, built a state-of-the-art kitchen and put together a finemenu. You have purchased excellentproduce at a good price. When you start-ed your business, you were filled withexcitement and confidence. You werehopeful that customers would flock toyou because you uniquely would servewhat they crave in a meal. Before open-ing the doors to your new restaurant,chances are you spent countless hoursdreaming about the name, designing the

logo in your head and planning themenu your heart told you will draw fre-quent and loyal customers.

This is the way most businesses begin.Whether we are talking about a restau-rant, a regional bank or a global telecom-munications company, every businessstarts with a dream created by one ormore entrepreneurs. It's just like the cre-ation of a universe. A spark of energyignites something special that hopefullywill turn into a profitable business.

Those companies that understandhow to utilize the “magic” found in theformula for basic marketing are busi-nesses that will live long into the future.If you're looking to build a solid busi-ness, you cannot allow yourself to betricked by the illusion of easy marketingsolutions. The successful companies Ihave worked with over the years under-stand that good marketing is built intoand nurtured throughout the culture ofthe organization.

A smart restaurateur does not open anestablishment just because there is abuilding available. He explores the inter-ests of the community. He researches thesuccess and challenges of his competi-tion. He plans for parking, accessibilityand any local codes that may help or hin-der his business. A successful businessowner dedicates more energy towardrecruiting and training a strong team ofcolleagues rather than wasting time

deciding what color the menu will be.The secret to marketing success is

simple. A company dedicating countlessdollars to an extravagant advertisingcampaign has wasted it all if, when acustomer calls, the person answering thephone is not responsive.

No business is perfect. We all makemistakes. Sometimes we misjudge ourmarket. At times, we lose track of ourbusiness plan. We experiment in tech-nologies that move us too quickly intonew areas we do not fully understand.

Those companies with a corporateculture that encourages them to learnfrom mistakes, quickly accept the chal-lenge of new opportunities, and focus onfilling the needs of their customersunderstand the true magic of strongmarketing.

The key to success may not be easy,but it can be simple. Let me know if youhave any questions or if there is anythingI can do to help you succeed. You canalways e-mail me at [email protected].

approve payment for the men and usedthe floor to accuse the town of wastingmoney through legal wrangling.

“This resolution is a settlement man-dated by the courts,” Mayoka said. “Iwould prefer that cases are settled out ofcourt as to save the residents money forpaying legal fees. I would have liked to see

this negotiated in-house with the vastnumber of in-house attorneys that areavailable.”

Mandated, sure, but not by the courts,said Cuthbertson, who audibly scoffed asMayoka made his statement prior to thevote. The Department of Labor orderedthe town to make the payment.

“It was absurd,” Cuthbertson said. “My

colleague is kind of making things up ashe goes along up there.”

Mayoka later argued that the ordercame from the Department of Labor andconceded he may have misspoken on thedais, but defended his statement’s validity.

“In generalities, it’s a type of a deter-mining body, so you can still call it ‘court,’”he said.

Naughton and Hennessey are pleasedabout the men receiving back pay, but aunion grievance against the town is stillactive. As nonpermanent employees, theworkers do not qualify for benefits afford-ed to full-time staff, Naughton said.

“I hope the resolution is they’ll be ableto get a full-time position,” Hennesseysaid.


Town finally pays some temporary workers

Local donates tents

His goal is to plant 5,000 trees, andhopes the community can help as muchas they did last time.

“While we know that you may not beable to go to Haiti with us, you can still bepart of this project. By sending your gift

of one tent to distribute to one homelessfamily, our hands and feet will be an ex-tension of your hands and feet in Haiti,”he wrote in his letter.

For more information, call Altenord at347-385-7938.


Before Frank Altenord, of Dix Hills, brought tents to families in Haiti, they were seekingshelter from makeshift tents of towels and sheets like the one above.

Avalon vote movedtake for Huntington,” was one of severalresidents who pushed the town to holdthe vote until September so residentscould get a handle on it.

“The facts continue to change. It’scalled a transportation district… but it’s ahalf-mile walk to the railroad station atits closest point,” he said. “On July 6,most of us will be on vacation… it’ll betough for them to get here,” he said. “Irecommend we move it back toSeptember so we can all be here and dis-cuss it and come up with a reasonablesolution.”

Ilene Fucci said she has laid low inadvocating against Avalon because shesaid she wanted to be fully informedbefore she spoke out and hoped thecommunity could build a consensus onAvalon.

“There are a lot of incensed citizensin Huntington Station. We want tohave the time to vet this properly; wewant to start doing things differently inHuntington Station,” she said. “If I’mconfused [on when the vote is], it’sbecause I sincerely believe you tried toconfuse me… there are hundreds andhundreds of Huntington Station resi-

dents who are confused as well.”Petrone argued the public has had

ample time to conduct research sinceMarch – and also ample time to voicetheir concerns.

“I don’t think it takes that much timeto get the facts. You had a public hear-ing where you had 54 people turn out[to speak],” he said last Wednesday. “Ithink people have had their opportuni-ty; they had it [June 15] and they’llhave it again. Whether it’s three weeksor two months, I don’t think it reallymakes a difference.”

Members of the Long IslandProgressive Coalition’s pro-AvalonBayYIMBY (Yes In My Backyard) programAvalonBay project were planning toattend Tuesday’s meeting, but decidedto hold back when they learned thevote had been pulled from the agenda.They will be back for July 6, though.

“We made our comment on the proj-ect in March,” Long Island ProgressiveCoalition community organizerMaritza Silva-Farrell said. “One-hun-dred-fifty people came out, said yes inmy backyard and spoke out in favor ofthe project… the reality is, many peopleare in favor of this project.”
