Waves of Grain

My friend brings me corn in the morning. He’s not yet in park when two of his guys are slipping out their doors and going for the burlap sacks. “Jesus,” he says to me, “we couldn’t find corn out there to save our lives.” I tell him it’s fine, and that I am okay without a delivery, but he insists, which, given his shortage, is generous. This year’s spring was cold. Most people can forget this, but farmers cannot. Those 40 degree nights are the reason the first planting matures only days before second planting. In some cases, three plantings ... 23 Jul 2024 by Marilee Foster

Sheer Chaos

Nearly half the population is mesmerized by a piece of evil named Donald Trump who, when he speaks, which is far too often, does little but lie and think almost entirely of himself, and denies all his crimes and ignores the science of global warming, which is everywhere in evidence in the wildfires out west and in Canada, not to mention in the rest of the world — and now wants to be president, even after a large group of historians has judged him to be the worst of them all so far. He wants to be a dictator only ... 22 Jul 2024 by Anthony Brandt

A Recharge Advocate

John Turner, who, with his Seatuck Environmental Association, has been at the forefront in working for recharge of highly treated wastewater back into the underground water table on which Suffolk County depends, is optimistic that if a countywide referendum in November on water preservation is approved, that goal can be widely realized here. A major factor is the new Suffolk County executive, Ed Romaine, who as a county legislator and a town supervisor had long advocated recharge of wastewater. Romaine, at an event at the start of this month at which he signed a water protection bill providing for the ... by Karl Grossman

I Just Turned Sixty and I’m Short on Time

Do you ever have a week or a month where your personal life gets so busy that you don’t have time to do your job? Reader, I am having that sort of month. One of the pucks got married last month, and then two weeks later (a mere seven days before this column’s deadline) I celebrated my 60th birthday. Both these events required a lot of preparations, and then de-preparations as I got my life back to normal. Throw in a couple of national holidays, the Hamptons at its most crowded, mundane chores like food shopping and laundry (I was ... 16 Jul 2024 by Tracy Grathwohl

Growing Up Online

Nearly a dozen Long Island school districts have in recent weeks joined in a lawsuit in federal court charging that social media giants including Facebook, TikTok and Snapchat are having an “addictive and dangerous” impact on youngsters, doing “harm” to them. The school districts from Suffolk County in the suit are Brentwood, East Islip, Kings Park, Port Jefferson, Islip and South Huntington. The lawsuit is part of a national legal effort by school systems. And it comes as U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy has announced he would push for a warning label on social media platforms advising that they ... by Karl Grossman

The Politics of the Latino Vote

It’s summer, so, of course, politics is in the air. The Republicans are holding their convention next week. As I write this, Democrats are wrestling with Joe Biden’s nomination. And, here in New York’s 1st Congressional District, we have newcomer John Avlon, a Democrat, squaring off against the one-term Republican incumbent, Nick LaLota. Buried among the more attention-grabbing headlines is a recent story reported by Newsday that’s worth noting for its political implications: Long Island’s Latino population continues to grow, mirroring a national trend. The growth here is relatively small, 1.1 percent, or 6,871 people, between July 1, 2022, and ... 10 Jul 2024 by Carlos Sandoval

Surprise Fireworks

The competition was stiff this year. So many fireworks and only one Fourth of July. Those who chose the actual anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence — a Thursday — those shows, no matter how paltry, get credit for authenticity. Fireworks are not just rated for their spectacle but also for whom they intend to dazzle. There are, more or less, two types of fireworks to pick from: municipally funded, and hosted by the volunteer fire departments, who will also kindly put out the dune fire when they accidentally start one. These are the kind of shows ... 9 Jul 2024 by Marilee Foster
