Work It

For Kelsey Marechal … Change is the opportunity to try again. And it isn’t always a good thing, but change is an inevitable thing, and so at the very least we must try to “work it,” be ready for it.

Because Cooper was unavailable, Capra then saw it immediately as a vehicle for Jimmy Stewart. Capra said of him: “He looked like the country kid, the idealist. ... by Tom Clavin

The Man for the Job?

The views are certainly mixed, to put it mildly, about President-elect Donald Trump announcing last week that he would nominate Lee Zeldin, the former congressman from Suffolk County, to lead the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Adrienne Esposito, executive director of Citizens Campaign for the Environment, based in Farmingdale, told Newsday: “The good news is: He lives here. He understands that climate change is real. He understands the value of protecting coastal waters, estuaries, the marine environment and drinking water … We’re hoping, and we need Lee Zeldin to bring perspective and strength to the Trump administration to do the right ... by Karl Grossman
