A Modern Valentine

Valentine’s Day is upon us — that kindly, old-fashioned day of notes and sweets, roses and more. Well, that’s over. You no longer have to worry about your kid being forced to fix paper hearts to school windows with scanty amounts of Scotch tape. He’ll never be shamed by the already artsy crowd. Love, for love’s sake, is stupid and yesterday. It solves nothing — look where it has gotten us. Love gets people — who should be working, by the way — confused. Strangely, it is not about gender; it is about the blend, the sense of yourself falling ... 11 Feb 2025 by Marilee Foster

Education, Transportation Are East End Priorities

Last month, Governor Kathy Hochul proposed a $252 billion New York State budget for the 2025-26 fiscal year. As is the case with any state budget, her proposal contains thousands of appropriations and hundreds of proposals for the operation of the state. Her proposal will be reviewed by the State Legislature, leading to a state budget around April 1. While all of it is important, two areas of particular importance for the East End in 2025 are education and transportation. State Aid to Education is always a top priority. However, in 2025, a major overhaul to the Foundation Aid formula ... 10 Feb 2025 by Fred W. Thiele Jr.

Let's Hear

Donald Trump has been back as president for a couple of weeks, and he has issued countless executive orders. He also has proposed making Canada our 51st state, buying Greenland, taking the Panama Canal from Panama, and the taking of Gaza (making it “the Riviera of The Middle East”) and moving the resident Palestinians elsewhere. Yet he has not issued any executive orders nor anything at all to bring down the price of groceries. While campaigning, Trump repeatedly said he would bring food prices down … and fast. Clearly, it was just empty promises. His tariffs will raise prices further. ... by Staff Writer

Not Bullied

Laurie Anderson’s statement that “I have never met John Leonard” [“A Bully,” Letters, February 6] was about all she got right. I lived through every moment of John Leonard’s three years on the board of the Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center — he’s my husband — and it was ugly. Nobody pushed Virginia Frati out. She wanted to retire as of November 1, 2022. John singlehandedly found a highly qualified candidate. Frati was installed on the center’s board of directors on October 25, 2022. Her last day as executive director was October 31, 2022. Frati became livid when an audit ... by Staff Writer

Looming Disaster

During his two confirmation hearings, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump’s uninformed nominee to become the secretary of health and human services, struggled to answer basic questions relating to the job he was nominated to fill. Forcing myself to watch his display of ignorance and shallowness across a range of important health care issues, the fear of looming disaster mounted with every Kennedy utterance. No secretary of health and human services nominee could possibly know everything there is to know about the job — but is it too much to expect a grasp beyond the rudimentary, a bar Kennedy struggled ... by Staff Writer

Cancer in Their Bones

Andrew Hull, the late senior health physicist at Brookhaven National Laboratory, told me almost 50 years ago, when I was reporting about high levels of radioactivity in the Peconic River, that the cause was fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests at the federal government’s Nevada test site. Many nuclear weapons were exploded, and the fallout spread widely, carried by winds, including to the east of the United States and Suffolk County. I was exploring the situation because the York State Health Department had just issued a report saying that the Peconic River, which flows through Riverhead, had the second-highest level ... by Karl Grossman
