Bloody Threat/Amenaza Sangrienta

This column is bilingual, with Spanish following. Can we talk … talk frankly? Because for the last few weeks, the former president-convicted felon-found liable as a sexual abuser by a jury-with several felony charges pending-businesses bankrupt four times, Donald J. Trump, has done nothing but talk — talk nonsense … talk exaggerations … talk lies about our community, with the goal of staying out of jail. Let’s review: Trump has vowed that if he is elected president there are going to be mass deportations. Not only massive but, as he recently made clear, bloody.

Durable Insects

Just like plants, insects bloom. They look like one thing, then another: a tight green bud gives way to a pink flower; a gray pupa becomes red, with polka dots. I observe the ladybugs that populate the fields. They come in waves, and when I am washing lettuce, I see what insect is the most prevalent at any given time, not just the ladybugs but of aphids and less desirable insects, too.

Then-New York Governor Mario Cuomo allied himself with grassroots anti-nuclear organizations and the Suffolk County Legislature in the battle. But now New York has a different governor, Kathy Hochul. The national journal Politico signaled Hochul’s interest in nuclear power in an article in May headlined “New York policymakers thaw on nuclear energy.” The piece started: “Gov. Kathy Hochul has cracked the door open to the potential for new, small nuclear power plants as a ... by Karl Grossman

Saving Lives

Lots of discussion of a most needed lifesaving device finally getting installed [“A Fight Over a Cellphone Tower Has Created a Rift Among Sagaponack Village Residents,” 27east.com, August 28]. First of all, we will all now be able to call fire, police, ambulances and any and all help and aid workers, where we were not able to before, for auto accidents, fires and medical emergencies. Lives will be saved, and all sorts of emergencies will be responded to in a quick and timely, lifesaving manner.
