Islip hamlet’s Stephan Weiss, 17, raised $1,864.46 during a St.Baldrick’s event, where people have their heads shaved to raise money to fight cancer, at 

Jim Brady’s in New York City earlier this month. 

Developing the hamlet’s future from its past 

Civic causes advanced by the Central Islip Civic Council 

By JEFFREY BESSEN 

CENTRAL ISLIP — The 5-acre spread that hosts 

the Central Islip Civic Council’s headquarters is a 

microcosm of where the hamlet has been and where 

it is going. 

Not only does the site feature the old-time blacksmith 

building of Henry Heines and a replica of the 

hamlet’s first one-room schoolhouse, but it also 

boasts an organic garden that aids the Civic Council’s 

food pantry and a two-family house, which is an 

example of that current buzzword: affordable housing. 

Nancy Manfredonia, who for the past 20 years has 

We Hope You 

Never Need Us. 

But We Are Ready 

If You Do! 

seen her community evolve, heads the 42-year-old 

organization. Other groups, such as the Central Islip 

Historical Society and the Tri-Hamlet Alliance, also 

take up the renaissance banner. 

“We have dedicated board members who have 

done a lot with a little and it has been a privilege to 

serve,” Manfredonia said. 

Originally, the Civic Council had no staff during the 

first half of its existence, Manfredonia said. But, as 

the group became more heavily involved in Islip 

Town housing initiatives, the need for part-time and 

full-time employees grew to where there are a total of 

16 staffers mainly part-timers and some full-time 

employees, she said.

The property at 68 Wheeler Road also reminds visitors 

that Long Island was a farming community as a 

number of different fruit trees dots the grounds, 

along with a pair of sheep. 

But, not to get shorn by the economic changes, 

Manfredonia’s organization has partnered with Islip 

Town and other elected officials in an attempt to 

move the hamlet forward. 

She also points out that a lot has been accomplished—mostly 

on the Carleton Avenue Corridor— 

and a lot more needs to be accomplished, especially 

taking on a Bay Shore-like restoration of Central

This parcel, the former projected site of an aquarium, on Fourth Avenue in Bay Shore is targeted for 40 affordable housing 

units. 

IB/Bessen 

Going fishing for affordable housing 

Town slated to transfer land for residential units 


BAY SHORE — Land once targeted 

for the housing of fish and other 

marine life is now slated to be home to 

at least 40 humans as Islip Town is 

scheduled to hold a public hearing 

regarding the land transfer of a parcel 

for affordable housing. 

The public hearing is scheduled for 

the town board meeting on Wednesday, 

April 9 at 2 p.m. in Islip Town Hall 

at 655 Main Street. A proposed transfer 

is expected to take place between the 

town and the Nassau/Suffolk Partnership 

Housing Development Fund Company, 

Inc. 

This property, presently zoned as a 

Downtown Development District, is 

where a proposed aquarium was 

thought to have been located at 92 

Fourth Avenue on a site adjacent to the 

old Vitagraph Building, which is now 

The Loft apartment building. 

Following the fold up of the aquarium 

idea, Islip Town assembled a blue 

ribbon committee nearly three years 

ago to determine what to do with the 

parcel. It was comprised of individuals 

from the town’s Community Development 

Agency (CDA), Hauppaugebased 

Long Island Housing Partnership 

(LIHP), and the Greater Bay Shore 

Chamber of Commerce, Northrop- 

Grumman and area churches. 

Islip Town Supervisor Phil Nolan 

has announced an agreement that will 

lead to an increase in the safe disposal 

of hazardous waste by allowing 

Islip Town residents to drop-off their 

household hazardous waste at the 

town’s multi-purpose waste facility 

each week. 

Prior to the plan, residents’ only 

opportunity to dispose of household 

hazardous waste was during the 

town’s twice a year “Stop Throwing 

Out Pollutants (STOP)” day. 

“This plan will be more convenient, 

and because of that I am convinced it 

will increase the amount of hazardous 

waste that is disposed of properly. 

Beginning this spring, once the necessary 

permits are in place, Islip Town 

“Both the town planning department 

and Community Development Agency 

have determined that this is the best 

use of the land for a number of reasons,” 

said Paul Fink, director of the 

CDA. 

Fink noted that housing in the Bay 

Shore area will support the continued 

revitalization of the downtown, which 

has undergone a renaissance in the 

past 12 years under the direction of the 

chamber and the Business Improvement 

District. 

Smart growth principles of being 

close to shopping and mass transportation 

are met, he added. In addition, a 

citizens advisory committee was commissioned 

by the CDA and the LIHP 

that was given a voice in the configuration 

of a project that also borders 

Mechanicville Road, Park Avenue and 

an existing building on its north side. 

Approximately 40 affordable housing 

units are expected to be constructed 

and all of the residences are anticipated 

to be owner-occupied, according to 

Fink. Twenty units are reserved for 

families earning less than 80 percent of 

the median family income for a family 

of four on Long Island. 

The other 20 residences will be 

reserved for families earning between 

80 and 120 percent of the median family 

income. Presently, that median family 

income stands at $97,100, according 

residents can drop off their hazardous 

waste 52 times per year instead of just 

twice a year during STOP days in September 

and April,” Nolan said, adding 

that his long-term goal is to create a 

permanent household hazardous 

waste storage system. 

This year’s Spring STOP day will be 

held on Saturday, April 12 from 9 a.m. 

to 2 p.m. The supervisor will continue 

to host two town-wide STOP days, 

even after the plan to create a permanent 

household hazardous waste storage 

facility has been implemented. 

Hazardous waste that will be collected 

during this year’s STOP day 

includes: aerosol cans, air conditioning 

refrigerants, anti-freeze, automotive 

fluids, bug and rodent killers, 

to Fink. 

Currently the land is not on the tax 

rolls, but will be placed back on the tax 

rolls following completion of construction 

and sale of the units to first-time 

home owners, Fink said. 

“The town will receive approximately 

one million dollars in revenue as a 

subsidy to help keep the units affordable,” 

he said. “This is a not-for-profit 

venture.” 

Also scheduled as a public hearing 

on April 9 is the deletion of a portion of 

Gibson Road in Bay Shore as an excess 

right-of-way adjacent to the proposed 

Pace Cove condominium project that 

fronts Maple Avenue. Pace Cove is 

anticipated to be an upscale 57-unit, 

three-story complex. 

To delete a section of a road, a survey 

must be conducted and a legal description 

of the street must be generated, 

according to Planning Commissioner 

Gene Murphy. 

Gibson Street will remain an open 

roadway and there will be no modification 

of the width of the road on any 

town maps. The only portion affected 

is the excess property. 

“The deletion of the right-of-way will 

not only help to facilitate the redevelopment 

of the blighted Dr. King 

Hospital site, but will also provide a 

greater setback and buffer area,” 

Murphy said. ■

Helping military families soldier on 

Town and airline help loved ones to visit deploying infantry 

By EMILY PORTOGHESE 

RONKONKOMA — Islip Town 

Councilman Gene Parrington worked 

with Southwest Airlines to provide 

tickets for soldiers’ families to Fort 

Bragg, North Carolina to visit with 

their loved ones in the 69th Infantry 

before their deployment to 

Afghanistan on Thursday. 

Islip Town Supervisor Phil Nolan 

and Parrington were joined by Rep. 

Steve Israel (D-Dix Hills) and County 

Executive Steve Levy to host a Seeingoff 

Ceremony for the Families of the 

Fighting 69th at Long Island 

MacArthur Airport, that began 

approximately 45 minutes later than 

scheduled due to an accident on Veterans 

Memorial Highway Tuesday 

morning. 

Nolan appointed Parrington, a decorated 

Vietnam War veteran, as the 

town liaison for Veterans Affairs, and, 

along with Beth Delli-Pizzi, president 

of the Long Island Fighting 69th Family 

Readiness Group (LIFRG), whose 

husband is a lieutenant in the unit, has 

organized a food pantry for the Fighting 

69th with a drop-off point at town 

hall, as well as a Seniors to Soldiers 

program, and other endeavors. 

Delli-Pizzi is the “middleman” who 

brought to the town’s attention the 

fact that the fighting 69th families 

needed help garnering tickets. A combat 

Vietnam veteran with two purple 

hearts, Parrington knows the trials 

war can put people through. 

Islip Town and Southwest Airlines partnered to send family and friends to visit 

the soldiers of the Fighting 69th in North Carolina before they deploy. Rep. 

Steve Israel (D-Dix Hills) is left of the Southwest banner, with Councilman Gene 

Parrington and Supervisor Phil Nolan on the right. 

IB/Portoghese 

“I put together today’s ceremony for 

the families of the Fighting 69th 

because in the town of Islip when we 

say support our troops, we mean support 

our families as well,” Parrington 

said. “As a combat Vietnam veteran, I 

will continue to do everything I can to 

make the lives of these heroic families, 

and of all our veterans, a little bit 

easier.” 

Also present at the ceremony were 

representatives from American Legion 

Posts in East Islip (Post 635), Islip 

(Post 411), Ronkonkoma (Post 155), 

and Central Islip (Post 1039), and a 

bagpiper who played a beautiful medley 

of patriotic tunes before and after 

the ceremony. 

Levy delivered a brief but moving 

speech discussing the significance of 

supporting the soldiers and their 

loved ones. “They’re not from a movie, 

not a video, these soldiers are sons, 

brothers, husbands, and even mothers,” 

Levy said. 

Israel shared that he spent last 

Thanksgiving in Afghanistan, not 

because he wanted to see the country, 

but because he wanted to send a message 

to the soldiers. 

“It is important for them to know 

that they have the support they need 

from the government,” Israel said. 

Both Israel and Levy echoed that the 

soldiers must know that people are 

working with their families at home to 

help them if they need assistance. 

Israel also stated proudly that he 

introduced a resolution that unanimously 

passed in the House of Representatives 

on March 13 honoring the 

Fighting 69th. That announcement 

garnered applause from the appreciative 

audience. 

Southwest Airlines representative 

Stephanie Schaller spoke over the 

microphone just before the families 

were about to board their flight. 

“Southwest Airlines is honored to support 

the families of the Fighting 69th 

and provide flight accommodations 

for the families so they can visit with 

their loved ones,” said Schaller. “It 

means a lot to Southwest to be a part 

of Long Island’s community and give 

back to the armed forces.” ■ 

Honoring those who died in service 

Memorial for fallen heroes is unveiled 


5 


BRENTWOOD — In the same week that has 

marked the fifth year of the Iraqi War a memorial 

honoring six fallen soldiers was unveiled by Assemblyman 

Phil Ramos (D-Central Islip) outside his Suffolk 

Avenue district office. 

This Fallen Heroes Memorial commemorates the 

ultimate sacrifice paid by a half-dozen young men 

from the North Bay Shore and Brentwood communities 

in Iraq and Afghanistan, including Pfc. Raheen 

Heighter, the first Long Islander to lose his life in 

Iraq, and his fellow Army Pfcs. Jacob Fletcher and 

Jose Ruiz, along with Sgt. Michael Esposito, Marine 

Cpl. Ramon Mateo and Senior Air Force Airman Paul 

Hawkes Jr. 

The memorial was unveiled not that far from the 

marker that denotes the street as Lt. David Halderman 

Way. Halderman was a Brentwood native who 

was one of the 343 firefighters to lose their lives in 

the Twin Towers on Sept. 11. 

“Today is a day of profound sadness and also a day 

of profound pride,” said Ramos, who noted that the 

soldiers are owed a debt of gratitude for what they 

did; “putting the nation first and … our needs over 

their own wants.” 

It was a day of remembrance and a little bit of vindication 

as Ruiz’s parents were awarded their son’s 

New York State Conspicuous Cross, which Ramos 

noted was finally received after cutting through government 

red tape. The Conspicuous Service Cross is 

a decoration for military service awarded by the state 

to members of the military who have also been 

awarded one of 22 medals from the military, including 

the Purple Heart, the Silver Star, the Bronze Star 

and several distinguished decorations from any of 

the military branches. 

But despite the shadow of sorrow that appears to 

envelope events such as these, there existed a celebration 

of these young men’s lives and especially that 

people took the time to remember them. 

“I just wanted to thank Phil Ramos and others for 

A Fallen Heroes Memorial was unveiled outside Assemblyman Phil Ramos’s (D-Central Islip) office on 

Suffolk Avenue in Brentwood commemorating the lives of six area soldiers. 

IB/Bessen 

remembering Jacob and all our loves ones,” said 

Dorine Kennedy, Fletcher’s mother. “It is over four 

years and you are still thinking of him. I could ask for 

no more.” 

As the number of fallen soldiers in the Iraqi War 

climbed above 4,000 this past Sunday, there are many 

Gold Star mothers with the same thought and those 

who will have those thoughts. 

Dawn Esposito, the mother of Michael, noted that 

the designation Gold Star mothers, women who have 

lost their sons and now their daughters in military 

service, was established on June 4, 1925. 

Esposito said that she counts these mothers and 

fathers and others as part of her extended family, 

including Ramos, to whom she gave a gold coin, a 

military tradition that dates to World War I to prove 

that soldier belongs to a specific unit. 

“In memory of our fallen sons … these young men 

from Brentwood,” Esposito said. 

Ramos noted that the deaths of these young men 

and the remembrances have raised the consciousness 

of the community regarding what it is these 

young men have done. 

“We as a nation can never fully pay back the sacrifices 

you have made,” said County Legislator Ricardo 

Montano (D-Central Islip) addressing the soldiers’ 

parents. “We will never forget the sacrifices you have 

made.” ■

A lifetime of memories accrues 

Eleanor King Ackerson turns 100 years young 


Eleanor King Ackerson will celebrate her 100th birthday surrounded by her family 

on Sunday, April 6. 

BRIGHTWATERS — During the 

last century, wars, the Great Depression 

and technology have changed the 

world, and Eleanor King Ackerson 

has been around to see it all. 

Ackerson was born in 1908 and was 

raised in Islip hamlet. She will celebrate 

her hundredth birthday on Sunday, 

April 6. The youngest of four siblings, 

Ackerson had two sisters and 

one brother. A 1926 graduate of Islip 

High School, Ackerson went on to get 

a bachelor’s degree in education from 

SUNY New Paltz and began a teaching 

career in Baldwin. 

Although she enjoyed teaching, 

Ackerson got married and started a 

new career as a housewife; she settled 

into a home in Islip with her husband, 

H. (Henry) Ward Ackerson. The 

Ackerson’s had two sons, Richard and 

Bart, who grew up through the Islip 

School District as well. Nearly 20 

years ago, Eleanor and Henry moved 

to Brightwaters. 

H. Ward Ackerson passed away in 

1998 at the age of 96; living a long life 

seems to run in this family’s genes, as 

does business. Ackerson’s younger 

son, Bart, carries on the family business 

as a third generation real estate 

broker in the building his grandfather, 

Henry Ward Ackerson, had built in 

1906 on Montauk Highway at the head 

of the Brightwaters Canal. 

In 2001, Ackerson’s 75th high school 

reunion fell at the same time as her 

son Bart’s 50th reunion; they both 

went, but Eleanor was the only person 

present from her graduating 

class. 

Bart Ackerson has no idea how his 

mother has gotten this far, and his 

brother Richard, an ex-Islip Fire 

Chief, chalks it up to her humor. 

“She’s always been a fun person,” 

Richard said. “She just refuses to get 

old.” 

Ackerson broke her hip at 97, and 

has never quite bounced back from 

the injury. Yet she still is able to walk 

a little bit and, though she may be 

hard of hearing, she has her wits 

about her. 

“My mother lived for us,” Bart said. 

“Her main priority was to provide for 

us and take care of us.” 

Richard noted that no matter what, 

his mother always had a nice car 

because she loved driving. He remembers 

her taking him and his brother 

up to Albany for camping trips and 

driving them into the city where they 

would take boat trips upstate. 

The family had a summer home in 

Saltaire on Fire Island, and Richard 

shared that his mother loved accompanying 

her kids down to the beach 

where they all would hunt for remnants 

of sunken ships that would 

wash up to shore. 

Living to 100 is an amazing feat, but 

there are many hardships along the 

way. Ackerson has lost all of her 

friends and relatives, except for her 

sons and their families. Richard 

recalled that sometimes she does not 

feel as if she is understood. 

“She’s told us that she hopes we live 

to 107 so we would know what it’s 

like to live past many loved ones,” he 

said. 

Nevertheless, Ackerson is excited 

to be celebrating her 100th year on 

Earth during a family celebration at 

her home on her birthday. She has 

seven grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren, 

and is anxiously awaiting 

the arrival of her first great-greatgrandchild 

in May. ■ 

Recognizing the accomplishments of women 

Town fetes six to highlight Women’s History Month 


ISLIP — In an annual event, the town of Islip held 

its Women’s History Celebration at Town Hall last 

week to pay tribute to the local women who are making 

a difference in the community. 

Those being honored at the Wednesday event included: 

Ashley Graf, a violinist who has played with the 

“Irish Tenors;” Evelyn Blose-Holman, superintendent 

of the Bay Shore School District; Dr. Leigh Ann 

Hutchinson of Southside Hospital in Bay Shore; Winnie 

Mack, executive director of Southside Hospital; 

Marguerite Tanner, a volunteer peer counselor at the 

town’s Hotline; and Rachel Wiener, a social worker at 

Central Islip High School. 

Along with recognizing those women, Supervisor 

Phil Nolan presented a special proclamation to the 

Girl Scouts of Suffolk County. Evelyn Blose-Holman, 

who was honored for her efforts to forge a positive 

relationship between local business and school districts 

through the Bay Shore Community Summit, was 

very happy to be credited by the town. 

“To be recognized by the town of Islip is a special 

honor and one that I am compelled to share with the 

schools and community,” Holman said. “Working 

together as a team to affect positive changes is a highly 

important and rewarding endeavor.” 

Recognized for the positive impact she has had on 

patient care through aesthetic improvements she has 

made to the facility, executive director of Southside 

Hospital, Winnie Mack, noted that the hospital is committed 

to being the best community hospital on Long 

Island and she is happy to work where she does. 

“I have had the privilege of working with the town 

officials and know how exceptionally fortunate we are 

to call the town of Islip our home,” Mack said. “I am 

proud to be a recipient of the town of Islip Women’s 

History Month Award and to be sharing this award 

with such a prestigious group of women.” 

Dr. Hutchinson excels in the highly male-dominated 

Islip Town honored five women who live or work in the town as part of Women’s History Month. From left in

field of Electrophysiology, which is a sub specialty of 

cardiology. She was recognized for her professional 

accomplishments and for dedicating herself to inspiring 

young people to further their education. 

“I’m very honored that the town gave this award to 

me,” Dr. Hutchinson said. “These events are helpful. 

Hopefully those people that are discouraged can 

understand that if you have passion, your goals are 

achievable.” 

There are challenges in a work environment for 

women that men do not always experience, and only 

the women who go through it understand, Dr. Hutchinson 

noted. 

Nolan was appreciative of the role women play in 

the community. He thinks it is important to honor the 

contributions these women have made to their field, 

and to recognize them for paving the way for the 

future. 

“The six individuals recognized at our Women’s History 

Celebration serve as positive role models,” Nolan 

said. “They demonstrate the importance of striving for 

success to young women everywhere.” ■

Grant money 

Education Chair Naomi Taub from the Archaeological Institute of 

America, Long Island Society presented Librarian Phyllis M. Simon, 

from the Brook Avenue School Library in the Bay Shore School 

District with a $400 grant for a proposal she wrote for her secondgrade 

students at the Eastern Suffolk BOCES School Library System 

(SLS) Liaison meeting. 

The students will create a “time box or capsule” reflecting artifacts 

that might be found this year, to be opened (by another group) in ten 

years. “By creating artifacts and then excavating them 10 years later, 

students learn much about the concept of the past and the work of an 

archaeologist,” Simon said. 

Simon accepts the $400 grant from Taub at the meeting, hosted by 

Gail Barraco, administrative coordinator for the SLS. ■

Long Island MacArthur Airport officials and taxicab owners, managers and drivers met on Monday in attempt to resolve a few recurring issues. 

Photo courtesy of taxi-library.org 


RONKONKOMA — A three-point 

turn from Long Island MacArthur Airport 

(LIMA) Islip Town’s new airport 

commissioner, Teresa Rizzuto, Councilman 

Gene Parrington and several 

owners, managers and drivers discussed 

issues of safety and decorum 

on Monday. 

In an approximately 75-minute meeting 

in the intimately sized Holbrook 

Room of the Ronkonkoma Holiday 

Inn, the groups decided to open communication 

by holding a monthly 

meeting where representatives of the 

taxicab companies that serve LIMA 

will air their concerns with town officials. 

Though some came out of the gettogether 

looking unimpressed with 

what was discussed, others said that 

the town is attempting to address the 

issues. “They are trying to solve the 

problems at the airport,” said Bob 

Piracci, a manager for Islandia-based 

Lindy’s Taxi. “There will be additional 

A lively livery discussion 

Town officials and cab owners and drivers meet 

meetings.” 

Rizzuto, who was named to the post 

in January, emerged from the room 

after also huddling with other LIMA 

officials and current Deputy Commissioner 

Eric Hofmeister, who served as 

acting commissioner following the 

retirement of Al Werner. 

Though pricing was not discussed— 

Rizzuto noted it was a non-starter as 

taxi companies set their own prices— 

what was discussed, she said, was that 

the guidelines regarding the taxi drivers’ 

behavior will be reiterated and 

monitored. 

It appears drivers are jumping ahead 

of each other in line for customers and 

this behavior ratchets up resentment 

between drivers to where the situation 

could explode. 

Rizzuto said that Hofmeister suggested 

the formation of a Taxi-Livery Committee 

comprised of town officials and 

the taxicab drivers, managers and 

owners, where concerns can be aired 

and issues will be addressed. 

“I like all these guys,” said Rizzuto, 

who has gotten to know the drivers in 

her short stint as commissioner with 

her parking stall located near the taxis. 

“They are good, hard-working people.” 

Previous complaints revolved 

around the fact that taxis not specifically 

called for a pickup at the airport 

charged a minimum of $30—and that 

stands even if a passenger was going 

across the street. And it is $5 for each 

additional passenger. 

Those passengers that did not have a 

cab reservation must hike across the 

parking lot to the “taxi line” located 

adjacent to the rental car companies. 

Under current LIMA regulations only 

taxis that were called can provide 

curbside pickup. 

Another issue that Rizzuto said she 

would address is the presence of taxis 

that are not registered at the airport 

cruising the grounds and stealing passengers 

from the primary companies 

that service LIMA. 

“We’ll investigate it and do what we 

have to do to fix it,” she said. 

One driver, who did not want his 

named used, confirmed that is a big 

problem. That same driver noted that 

due to the $30 minimum, he has had 10 

consecutive potential patrons reject 

his service. 

“Twenty dollars used to be the magic 

figure,” he said, “people would pay 

that, but not $30 or more. We want it to 

be competitive and fair to the public. 

He said he keeps a copy of a previous 

Islip Bulletin article in a manila 

folder to show patrons that the 

upscale price is not set by him individually. 

In the article it was noted that the 

town might put out an RFP (Request 

for Proposal), giving only one company 

access to the airport, and the town’s 

possibilities for expanded regulation 

and oversight. But Rizzuto said that is 

not a road she wants to venture down 

now. 

“Everybody was sincere and open 

and we are moving forward in the right 

direction,” said Parrington, who noted 

that the town is attempting to be “fair 

and equitable to everybody.” ■

Keeping pets safe from poisons 

What is TELEMEDICINE 

Telemedicine is the use of technology to 

exchange medical information from your 

home to our nurse-monitored web site. 

This is done through a simple 

installation of equipment in your 

home that utilizes an electric 

outlet and a telephone or 

cable jack.

Dr. Jennifer Welser with her dogs, Chaos and Cuppy. 

Whether you and your pet are at 

home or out for a daily walk, potentially 

toxic substances are everywhere 

and sometimes all too tempting and 

tasty for curious pets. 

From sugar-free gum to common 

household plants, top toxins are everyday 

items you may never suspect and 

can cause serious illnesses and even 

death in pets. To honor National Poison 

Prevention Week 2008, specialty 

veterinarians from New York City Veterinary 

Specialists offer useful advice 

on how to keep pets poison-free yearround. 

“As an emergency veterinarian, I 

receive an abundance of calls about 

dogs and cats that have eaten something 

suspicious. Naturally, this causes 

pet owners to panic. We’ve actually 

found that what people think will be 

most harmful, may not be. Surprisingly, 

it’s been the least suspected household 

items, like sugar-free gum, that 

may be most harmful,” says Dr. David 

Bessler, a Senior Emergency Clinician 

at NYC Veterinary Specialists in Manhattan. 

So, how can pet parents know what’s 

harmless and what isn’t 

According to The American Society 

for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, 

in 2007, the ASPCA’s Animal Poison 

Control Center (APCC) in Urbana, 

Ill. managed more than 130,000 cases. 

People everywhere called the APCC’s 

24-hour hotline with both emergency 

and non-emergency inquiries. 

Top poisoning cases reported consisted 

of the following common household 

goods and products: 

1. Prescription Drugs: With approximately 

89,000 calls received, medications 

such as painkillers, cold and flu 

preparations and antidepressants 

topped the list. According to Dr. Benjamin 

Davidson, a critical care specialist 

at NYC Veterinary Specialists, “Pet 

owners often make the mistake of giving 

human medications to their pets.

Some of the common pain relievers 

used in people are actually toxic to 

cats and dogs or need to be dosed differently. 

I recommend that all pet owners 

check with their family veterinarian 

before giving any medications to 

their pets.” 

2. Bug and Pest Control Products: 

“Some poisons and bait products give 

off a smell that often lures pets. This is 

why they work so well on rats and other 

pests. They can even be sweet to the 

taste. Pets are drawn to these substances 

and are curious about them,” 

Dr. Bessler said. 

“We have seen a number of cases of 

poisonings of illegally imported toxins 

disguised as brown grains. These 

harmful toxins are used to kill rodents 

and cockroaches. The actual chemical 

is called Aldicarb and causes neurologic, 

gastrointestinal and occasionally 

cardiac issues. When they are used, 

they should be hidden from pets. If 

your pet does consume some of this 

toxin, please contact your family veterinarian 

immediately. Prompt treatment 

can be lifesaving,” Dr. Davidson 

said. 

3. Common Household Plants & Seasonal 

Plants: According to the APCC, 

In 2007, common household plants 

such as lilies, azaleas and kalanchoe, 

were the subject of more than 8,000 

calls to the poison center. Rhododendron, 

sago palm, and schefflera plants 

also make the list. “Be sure to keep 

Easter lilies and Tulips away from 

pets, especially from cats,” says Dr. 

Bessler. “Lilies are considered to be 

highly toxic to cats. Even in small 

amounts they can produce life-threatening 

kidney failure, even if they 

ingest just a tiny amount.” Tulips contain 

toxins, which can cause intense 

gastrointestinal irritation, drooling, 

loss of appetite, depression of the central 

nervous system, convulsions and

Developing the hamlet’s future from its past 

CENTRAL ISLIP from page 10 

Islip’s main drag: Suffolk Avenue. 

A recreational community center is 

slated to be constructed on Clayton 

Street, which is a side street off of Carleton 

Avenue in the downtown area, 

and within the past two years, developers 

fees have gone to beginning 

downtown improvements, that 

includes having a downtown coordinator 

(John Dowling), regular cleanups 

and seasonal decorations. 

“Most significantly was the requirement 

for the profit developers going 

for permits to contribute $250,000 to 

downtown funds as the permits come 

in,” said Gene Murphy, the town’s planning 

commissioner. 

Murphy noted that the implementation 

of the downtown coordinator, the 

use of a water truck, and the utilization 

of free Department of Labor workforce 

has helped Dowling to maintain 

a cleaner community. 

Like Manfredonia, Murphy also sees 

blighted lots and existing structures 

that could be upgraded, but the planning 

commissioner said that occasionally 

one bumps into unresponsive 

landlords. 

“In the big picture, it is definitely 

cleaner and people are happy with the 

streetscape,” Murphy said. 

In the past several years, a variety of 

residential development have been 

constructed, including College Woods, 

Coventry Village, Courthouse Commons, 

and Islip Landing. 

Akin to dominoes as the commercial 

and residential construction began it 

begat more from the John P. Cohalan 

Court Complex to Citibank Park 

The headquarters of the 42-year-old 

Central Islip Civic Council demonstrates 

the past, present and future of the community. 

At right: A piece of American 

history. 

IB/Bessen 

(where the Long Island Ducks minor 

league baseball team plays) in 2000, to 

a huge shopping center that features a 

visual appealing pond with a waterfall 

and many stores. 

Through Assemblyman Phil Ramos 

(D-Central Islip), the Tri-Hamlet Group 

and working with Bill Mannix, director 

of the town’s Economic Development 

department, the Civic Council has 

applied specifically for downtown 

grants, along with three different grant 

possibilities for a visioning process. 

“We have general idea of what we 

want, we need the nitty gritty,” Manfredonia 

said. “We have to come up 

with a vision for Central Islip.” 

Manfredonia seeks to also upgrade 

the “walkability” of the hamlet and 

transportation is expected to receive a 

boost when a trolley, purchased by the 

Civic Council, is used, running every 

20 to 25 minutes in a continuous loop 

from the courts, to the shopping center, 

the rail road station and the new 

community center. 

The Civic Council provides its community 

with multiple programs, 

including a “Step 

Back in Time” that supplies 

schoolchildren with 

an opportunity to experience 

life on a turn-of-thecentury 

(19th to 20th) 

homestead. 

That type of vision— 

looking back, while looking 

ahead—is the basis of 

the group’s mission of 

“improving the quality of 

life for all residents of 

Central Islip.” 

The town’s master plan 

process has been a good 

one for the hamlet, Manfredonia 

said. Despite 

some tough times, she 

notes that her community’s 

problems are not 

much different than 

those of the rest of Long 

Island. 

“With all this effort, I 

see a bright future for Central Islip,” 

Manfredonia said. ■

Eating up hamlet history 

Restaurant Week kicks off tricentennial party 


BAY SHORE — As this hamlet by 

the Great South Bay begins to celebrate 

its 300th birthday this year, 

stoves and ovens in area restaurants 

will heat up with a kick-off event. 

“Restaurant Week in Bay Shore” is 

slated for Tuesday, April 1 through 

Thursday, April 10 with 19 participating 

restaurants offering prix fixe menus 

denoting 1708, the year of Bay Shore’s 

founding to the present year of 2008. 

Following the community’s renaissance 

from vacant, blighted buildings 

to a vibrant, connected civic presence, 

eateries offering a variety of culinary 

choices have taken root on Main 

Street, Union Boulevard and on the 

waterfront. 

“When you suggest something, you 

become the chair to organize the 

event,” John Valdini said jokingly, as 

he and his brother Brian, who operates 

the restaurant fatfish, are the co-chairs 

for this tasty tricentennial promotion. 

In cooperation with the Chamber of 

Commerce of Greater Bay Shore, the 

Valdinis have lined up the eateries that 

are as varied as Tula Kitchen, which 

will highlight its almond crusted chicken 

with apricot sauce, according to 

owner Jackie Sharlup, to the ferry-side 

Chowder Bar whose soup was voted 

best on Long Island by News12 viewers, 

according to owner Pat Robinson. 

“Give the customer what they want,” 

Robinson said was her secret to the 

restaurant’s 20-year success on Maple 

Avenue. She also hopes that the promotion 

attracts new patrons and generates 

expanded exposure for the 

eatery. 

Valdini said that having the restaurant 

owners get out of their kitchens 

and meet each other was the fun part 

of pulling this together. “Everybody 

worked together and is looking forward 

to it.” 

He noted that it is important for the 

restaurateurs to know what is in their

EDITORIAL 

Transparent 

means 

transparent 

Out from under another scandal, school 

districts need—really need—to be open 

and transparent so their constituencies 

(hard working taxpayers that cannot 

raise capital by raising someone else’s 

taxes) can know where the money is 

going. 

Toward this goal, SchoolWatch, a growing 

nationwide grassroots organization 

that has trained its eyes on school districts, 

is calling for New York State school 

districts to do what 163 districts in 14 

states have already done: Putting district 

documents online for the whole world to 

see. 

Yes, a novel idea. Open up the ivory tower 

and create a looking glass kind of feel, 

where what the school districts are doing 

with taxpayer money is open for complete 

inspection. 

Faxes and e-mails have begun to be 

delivered to local districts and elected 

representatives letting them know that 

the ball is now in their court, but the public 

needs to know. 

Some may say this could be a legal disaster 

waiting to happen, but the fourth 

largest school district in the nation—Miami-Dade—did 

it in February and placed 

its check register online; more than 6,500 

pages of payments in alphabetical order 

by vendor for all the world to see. 

This is what transparency is. Not that 

one day a district allows people to see a 

crack in the keyhole. But the entire inventory 

laid bare for taxpayers to review and 

question. 

Too many questions. But think about it. 

If the system is open then the questions 

should be easy to answer and explain. It is 

all there in black and white and binary 

numbers. 

Doing this would be an easy stroke 

toward transparency as it permits school 

districts the luxury of accountability if all 

their “t”s are crossed and “i”s dotted. If 

the punctuation is improper, then finding 

the rotten apple should not be that difficult 

either. 

SchoolWatch is calling for a legislative 

mandate from the New York State Legislature 

for all public school transactions to 

put online. Why should the districts wait 

for that 

School districts should be smart and get 

ahead of the curve and show their constituencies 

that they know the meaning of 

transparency: clearness, lucidity, simplicity 

and intelligibility. ■ 

Reflections of the Past 

POINT OF VIEW 

An embodying experience 


Through friends I had heard about this exhibition 

where real human bodies are preserved and then dissected 

so spectators can get a rare look at our bodies 

completely broken down. My boyfriend and I decided 

to go see what all the fuss was about this “controversial 

exhibit.” 

Visiting “Bodies: The Exhibition” at the South Street 

Seaport in lower Manhattan was more of a shock than 

I had prepared myself for. The exhibit eases into the 

gross stuff by first displaying humdrum body parts 

such as feet, legs hands and arms with muscles, bones, 

and nerves visible in glass cases. 

Soon enough though, the exhibit ventures into displaying 

the brain completely broken down and quickly 

moves on to the intestines, and other places I won’t 

mention. The digestive system was referred to as an 

efficient disassembly line. 

There were several specimens posed performing certain 

tasks like pitching a baseball and conducting 

music. It was interesting to see what part of your body 

is used for activities such as these, but I could not stop 

myself from thinking about the people who these bodies 

once belonged to. 

Imagine if that was what became of your body when 

you died I never knew donating your body to science 

could possibly mean ending up in an exhibit. 

The most controversial section showcased fetuses 

that perished while in utero in every stage of development. 

As someone who has never been pregnant, this 

both fascinated and disgusted me. Pregnancy is an 

amazing thing, but as a woman in my early 20s, it 

seems freaky and terrifying, akin to something out of 

an alien movie. 

I think it is important for everyone to try to learn 

more about our bodies; maybe the more we become 

aware of how our bodies work, the more we will take 

care of them. 

The exhibit showed a smoker’s lungs compared with 

healthy lungs; most people know smoking is bad for 

you, but seeing those grayish lungs hopefully encourages 

some puffers to break the habit. A glass box was 

The New York Telephone 

Pioneers sponsored a 

special remembrance to 

the soldiers of Vietnam 

in the fall of 1970 by 

collecting and preparing 

ditty bags. Telephone 

people throughout Suffolk 

County contributed 

to the Annual Ditty 

Bag Project. Howard 

Bursch, assistant general 

manager for the 

Suffolk area, Marge Eve, 

council representative 

for Suffolk Life and Mary 

Tenca of East Islip, president 

of the Suffolk 

Council Pioneers, are 

shown looking over 350 

bags that were prepared. 

“Bodies: The Exhibition” at the South Street 

Seaport in lower Manhattan 

available for current smokers to throw their box of 

cigarettes into; the box was half-full. 

It truly is amazing to see how complex our bodies 

are. I never realized how many bits and pieces are 

inside of every one of us, and that without just one of 

those pieces, not everything works as well as it should. 

After the exhibit we had planned on getting a bite to 

eat, but preserved bodies with all the insides visible 

have a way of killing one’s appetite.

The magical language and poetry of China 

By YE LI 

BRENTWOOD — Ben Wang, the co-chair of Renwen 

Society of China Institute, lectured about Chinese 

Culture at the Michael J. Grant Campus of Suffolk 

County Community College last week. 

Tuesday’s lecture was the first big Chinese culture 

event held at the college. The administrators of the 

Grant Campus attached importance to this event as 

Executive Dean Shaun McKay, and the Associate 

Dean Sandra Susman Palmer, attended in the event, 

with McKay making a welcoming statement. 

The Deans, members of the faculty and students 

took pictures with the speaker. Suffolk County Community 

College is the largest community college in 

the New York State. 

In recent years, the school has started offering Chinese 

courses. As a growing language across the 

globe, Chinese has begun to receive more and more 

recognition at this college. 

Wang is a well-known lecturer, scholar and translator 

in the United States, where he has given talks 

about Chinese culture for 25 years. He is also one of 

the most popular Chinese speakers in the U.S. today. 

He has lectured at Yale, Columbia, U.C. Berkeley 

and other prestigious universities. He has also given 

talks at the National Gallery of Art, the United 

Nations, Lincoln Center, the Metropolitan Museum 

of Art and other famous places. For his contributions 

to society, the City Council of New York conferred 

upon him a citation for being “an outstanding 

citizen.” 

In his lecture at Suffolk County Community College, 

he illustrated the relationship between the 

characters, poetry, art, music, and the development 

of beauty and art in Chinese literature. 

He also made comparisons with Western culture to 

give a better understanding of the similarities and differences 

between the Western and Eastern civilizations. 

This special lecture was a feast for the eyes and 

ears of all who were interested in the art of writing, 

speaking and culture, and was a greatly welcomed. ■

4. Cleaning Products: Common products 

such as bleaches, detergents and 

disinfectants can be extremely harmful 

for pets. In addition to gastrointestinal 

distress, irritation to the skin, 

eyes or respiratory tract may be possible 

if a pet gets into these types of 

products. “Many cleaning products 

can cause extreme irritation to the 

eyes and even corneal ulceration. This 

includes household cleaning products 

(bleaches, mopping solutions, counter 

top and window sprays) as well as personal 

cleaning products (shampoos, 

perfumes, lotions). Just as with people, 

the eye should be copiously rinsed 

with saline (but tap water works in a 

pinch) and the pet should be taken to 

a veterinarian to look for ulceration,” 

says Dr. Jennifer Welser, board certified 

veterinary ophthalmologist and 

co-medical director of NYC Veterinary 

Specialists. 

“Always keep the ASPCA Poison 

Control Center’s hotline (1-888-426- 

4435) and your general veterinarian’s 

number handy in case of emergency. 

When in doubt, always call your family 

veterinarian,” Dr. Bessler said. ■

Boys’ lacrosse is ready to roll 


ISLIP BUCCANEERS 

Seeded 11th in the 18-team Division II side of boys’ 

Suffolk County lacrosse, Islip expects to take its 

knocks early and hopefully can deliver return bows 

as a “very young team,” according to head coach Keith 

Scheidel, improves. 

The Buccaneers features three seniors; Chris Riley 

and Chris Kmieciak on attack, and Karl Weiss on 

defense. Two juniors, David DeBlasio and Alex 

Koch, are also on attack. 

From there, Scheidel’s squad includes what he 

termed a nice mix of seniors, juniors and sophomores, 

along with four freshmen and a pair of eighthgraders. 

“Our stick skills are pretty good, but we are very 

young and the hardest thing to do will be able to survive 

our schedule,” said Scheidel, who noted that 

four out of Islip’s first half-dozen games are against 

top seeds. 

Included is the opening league game versus Kings 

Park. Last year, the Bucs played a bunch of 1-goal 

and overtime games and Scheidel sees a similar scenario, 

where his team will not dominate, but will 

hand a round and try to squeeze out victory in the 

fourth quarter. 

“We have only 21 on the roster and we will be playing 

18,” Scheidel said. “Everyone will see playing 

time and through effort, get better.” 

WEST ISLIP LIONS 

Yes, that is a bull’s eye on West Islip’s newly 

installed FieldTurf playing surface. But it is not there 

by accident. Winning the last two state titles and four 

consecutive, Class A county titles will do that. 

“I guess everyone would love to get a piece of us for 

what we have done in the last four-five-six years,” said 

head coach Scott Craig. “But that works in our favor 

as the bar is set high to achieve and the players have 

to put in the extra time to rise to a different level.” 

Touro Law Center’s student team 

advanced to the final round in the 

prestigious 15th annual Willem C. Vis 

International Commercial Arbitration 

Moot in Vienna, Austria. The competition 

included 204 teams comprised of 

approximately 1,400 law students from 

more than 50 countries around the 

world. Team members are Lena Davydan, 

Matthew Moisan and Aleksandr 

Bespalov. 

“This incredible performance 

demonstrates both the extraordinary 

commitment and talent of Touro Law 

students,” said Professor Jack Graves, 

faculty coach for the team. “This competition 

was a great platform for our 

students to prove they are among the 

best in the world.” 

All 204 teams participated in four 

preliminary rounds over the course of 

four days, after which the field was 

reduced to 64 teams who competed in 

elimination rounds for a place on the 

final stage in front of almost two thousand 

students, arbitrators and law professors 

from around the globe. 

In reaching this final round, Lena 

Davydan and Matt Moisan successfully 

prevailed in their oral arguments 

The top seeded Class A West Islip Lions seek to “go for three” consecutive state championships as the bell 

rings on a new lacrosse season.

Though the Lions graduated 23 seniors, 21 players 

from last season’s championship team return, which 

is the primary reason Craig’s squad is top seeded in 

Class A. 

All-County sophomore attack Nick Galasso leads 

the parade of returnees. As a freshman last year, 

Galasso notched 103 points, including 53 goals. 

Senior attack Ed Plompen was the No. 4 guy at his 

position last season, but pumped in 37 goals and 

dished out 8 assists. 

Senior midfielder Ian Braddish is back. He is good 

enough to have orally committed to North Carolina, 

Craig said. Sophomore Andrew Hodgson, Chris 

against teams from Tubingen, Heidelberg, 

Stockholm, NYU, and Victoria 

University of Wellington. In a very 

close final round, Carlos III (Madrid) 

ultimately prevailed, leaving the Touro 

team with the second place award—an 

outstanding achievement. 

“Lena and Matt delivered what I 

thought was one of the most outstanding 

final round performances I’ve ever 

witnessed in the Moot, and their 

school, their state, and their country 

ought to be very proud of them,” 

Graves said. 

The Willem C. Vis International Commercial 

Arbitration Moot is the largest 

and most prestigious private law student 

moot in the world. The event was 

designed to foster study and increase 

global awareness in the areas of international 

sales law (focusing on the 

United Nations Convention on Contracts 

for the Sale of Goods) and international 

commercial arbitration 

(focusing on the UNCITRAL Model 

Law on International Commercial 

Arbitration) and also to bring students, 

practitioners, and law professors from 

around the globe together for a single 

event in Vienna. 

Each year, the Moot revolves around 

a fictional international transaction in 

goods, which includes an agreement to 

resolve any disputes in arbitration. For 

the students, the six-month enterprise 

includes the submission of written 

memoranda for both Claimant and 

Messina (who is headed to Quinnipiac) and fellow 

senior Mike Bloom also man the midfield. 

John Giglia is the pull middie, and on defense there 

are seniors Tom Gordon and Devin Fuhy, and junior 

Mike McCormack and Ryan Zaremba in goal. Craig 

thinks that the team’s ability to run, its good stick 

work and athleticism should cover its lack of physical 

size and experience. 

“I am thinking of developing and getting better,” 

said the coach, who noted that he does enjoy seeing 

his players improve. “Every day you can get better or 

get worse, but you never stay the same. The only 

thing you can control is the effort.” ■
