Thousands remain without power Wednesday morning

Town still reeling from Irenes aftermath

by Ken Mastro Ledger Editor The aftermath of Hurricane Irene continued to plague Lewisboro, as nearly everyone in town was without power for days and most continue to have no electricity on Wednesday morning three days after the storm hit town Sunday morning. After many complaints of a slow response to the massive power outages, New York State Electric & Gas (NYSEG) was beginning to make progress on actually getting the lights back on in a number of homes Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. They also began providing estimated times for power restoration

by Matt Spillane and Ken Mastro Ledger Staff A Cross River man has died as a result of the aftermath of Hurricane Irene, while trying to raft down extreme rapids along the Croton River only hours after the eye of the storm passed over the area. Dr. Peter Engel, 53, of Howland Drive, a psychiatrist who has a practice in Cross River, died in a boating accident on Sunday, Aug. 28. Lewisboro police were notified of his death that evening by medical officials from the emergency room at Phelps Hospital in Sleepy Hollow, where he was pronounced dead.

Sports seasons stay on schedule

by J.B. Cozens Sports Editor Despite Sundays strong storm and ongoing loss of power in Lewisboro, the start of the fall sports season next week wont be affected. John Jay teams had practices canceled on Monday, but were back to practice on Tuesday. Because only two Katonah-Lewisboro schools had power, teams were forced to change practice locations, said boys soccer head coach Peter Neidell. We just missed Monday, but we had to shift around, he said. It will only affect some scrimmages. The first regular-season varsity game will be next Wednesday, when the girls soccer team travels to John Jay East Fishkill for a 4:30 game. On Thursday, the field hockey team opens up at Lakeland and the volleyball team travels to Carmel, both 4:30 starts. On Friday, Sept. 9, the boys soccer team host John Jay East Fishkill and the girls tennis team hosts Carmel, both at 4:15. The John Jay football teams season opener is Friday, Sept. 9, at

High school offers online courses

by Matt Spillane Ledger Reporter American classrooms are steadily becoming more technology-driven, and those in the Katonah-Lewisboro School District are taking a big step this year to keep pace. In collaboration with the Putnam/ Northern Westchester Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES), John Jay High School is offering its students four online courses this school year in an effort to develop its use of technology and share resources with neighboring districts. I think the obvious advantage is that kids at John Jay will have access to teachers at other districts in the same way that students in other districts have access to our teachers, John Jay Principal Ellen Doherty told The Ledger recently. The teachers participating are of the highest quality, which was our concern all along. Over time the

Storm:

Continued from Page 1A

for many streets in Lewisboro late Tuesday afternoon, leaving residents unsure of when to expect their power back for about 60 hours. Furthering residents frustration was that town officials reported that Tuesday morning there were no NYSEG crews working in town on restoring power, although there were some performing assessments. But after calls and criticism from local and state leaders, that began to change Tuesday night, as 3,339 of the 5,454 NYSEG customers in town 61% were without power Wednesday morning, down from about 5,200, 95%, without it Tuesday afternoon. For about 24 hours after the storm hit, 99% of residents were without electricity. Check out The Ledgers ongoing coverage of the storms aftermath at lewisboroledger. com for the latest updates on power outages. Town officials continue to have daily telephone conferences with NYSEG and said they will keep the public continually informed as they obtain more information. NYSEG has been updating the power outages list on its Web site every 30 minutes or so, but it may not be entirely accurate as one resident said his power had been restored but the list did not reflect that. Power had been restored to parts of Cross River late Tuesday night, as the shopping center, gas station and John Jay campus all had lights on. Were in a communications and electrical power black hole at this time, Town Board member Frank Kelly said on Monday. But he asked residents to be patient and go about your normal business were going to be inconvenienced a little while longer. Also, on Monday, town officials said that NYSEG had refused to supply dry ice to Lewisboro, despite supplies to North Salem and Bedford, and has elected to stop all future dry ice deliveries. Dry ice usually keeps food cold for about 24 hours. One resident is reporting that late Tuesday night, though, dry ice, self-heating food from Westchester County and water were being handed out at the South Salem firehouse. The Vista firehouse has charging stations for electrical devices,

non-portable water and drinking water, Wi-Fi access and dry ice (call ahead for availability). Despite the recent movement in restoring power, a number of officials have complained that NYSEGs response time has been slow overall. Two more weeks of this hardship is simply ridiculous, State Senator Greg Ball, 40th District, said. One more week of this would be a horror to the families affected. Even one more day of inaction is an indicator and an indictment on New Yorks underlying preparedness for a major natural or man-made disaster. NYSEG must begin to more immediately respond to abandoned customers, struggling for basic answers and information. A suggestion of two weeks without service is unacceptable and begs for an independent hearing and investigation into New Yorks apparent inability to recover and respond ... At a minimum, NYSEG must begin to respond immediately to abandoned customers, struggling for basic answers and information. Assemblyman Robert Castelli, 89th District, was also critical of NYSEG, noting that, as of Tuesday afternoon, Con Edison was able to restore power to 73% of its customers in his district while NYSEG had only restored it to 16%. Thus far, the response by NYSEG has left much to be desired, Mr. Castelli said. While we all understand that this is an unprecedented situation, in the months ahead, a task force should look into why NYSEG was not adequately prepared for this situation, their protocols and procedures, and measure their response and efforts to restore their transmission and distribution lines following the storm. With the beginning of school on Wednesday, Sept. 7, school officials met Tuesday to assess the situation and their preparation for the first day of classes. Increase Miller Elementary School and Katonah Elementary School both have power back on yesterday morning, although the schools still lacked Internet and e-mail access as of yesterday. The John Jay campus appeared to have power restored late last night. In a statement released yesterday, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Paul Kreutzer said school is still scheduled to begin Sept. 7. He said the district staff is using the two elementary schools with electric-

ity to prepare for the opening day of school. Because of the power outages, Dr. Kreutzer said a number of activities and programs had to be canceled for the remainder of the week, including kindergarten orientation, new student orientation, teacher meetings, meetings with guidance counselors, student appointments, teacher training and social events. Coaches will provide information regarding locations and times of games/practices for all athletic activities. The beginning of the sports seasons will not be affected. (See story on front page.) Students and/or parents that have not yet received a transportation pick-up location should use the same bus stop location as last year, Dr. Kreutzer said. And the superintendents conference day for all faculty and staff will take place as planned on Tuesday, Sept. 6, but with an abbreviated schedule. Town offices are open today. Lewisboros seniors have been receiving help from the towns Parks & Recreation Department, which brought many of them dry ice, food and water, since the power went out on Sunday, said Town Board member Peter DeLucia, who is the boards liaison with the department. I am happy to say that [Parks & Recreation Superintendent] Dana [Mayclim] and her staff have done an awesome job attending to this responsibility, said Mr. DeLucia. They will continue to assist our seniors throughout this emergency. The lack of power is the main concern of most residents now, but the storms power was also deadly. A Cross River man, Dr. Peter Engel, died Sunday when he went rafting on a river in Westchester Sunday afternoon in the storms aftermath. (See story on front page.) Mr. Kelly said all the major roadways in town are now clear of trees and open to vehicles. At 6:30 Sunday morning, police had closed 28 sections of roads due to downed trees and wires. But Mr. Kelly said even the now open roadways remain dangerous at intersections, because of a lack of functioning traffic lights, and urged drivers to use caution. The roads are open and clear; however, intersections remain dangerous due to traffic control devices being offline without power, Mr. Kelly said. Lewisboro has contacted the county police departments and New York state troopers to request assistance with traffic

control. That request remains unanswered at this time. So, all residents are advised to use caution while driving and to engage an out traffic light as if it were a four-way stop sign yield the right of way to the vehicle arriving at the intersection first and yield to the right if you arrive at the same time. Those needing water or food can go to restaurants or grocery stores in North Salem and Pound Ridge, as most areas in both towns have power. Power was largely restored to Main Street in Ridgefield, Conn., Tuesday afternoon, so most of the shops and restaurants in the town center are open. The roads are open, Mr. Kelly said. People can get out and get what they need. Town officials are also working with communications service providers to reestablish communications. They have implemented the towns recently-enacted cell on wheels (COW) legislation that allows temporary mobile cellular structures to be erected in town during emergency situations when authorized by the town. The Vista Fire Department remains without phone service as do the residents of the southern hamlet because of a lack of power. Although there is a new cell tower on the fire departments property, Verizon has not yet been added to it, leaving those in Vista with Verizon as their cellular provider without the use of their cell phones either. The town is working with Verizon to get a COW at that site, but that had not happened as of Tuesday afternoon. Officials are reporting that the towns water districts currently have sufficient fuel supply for the near future. Water district managers are advised to assure follow-on fuel deliveries will be timely. For houses without power that are on well water, the town is obtaining potable water via tanker truck. Town officials said Monday that more information will be given soon about where to get this water, although that information had yet to be released by the time The Ledger went to press. In the interim, local businesses and those in adjacent towns have potable water for sale. Officials said residents may use pool water or other nonpotable but clean water for toilets. They do not anticipate that shower stations will be provided. Heather Flournoy of Lewisboro reported that the coffeehouse Perks in Katonah is open, and residents with Optimum/Cablevision can access free Wi-Fi in downtown

Katonah. Perks does not have access to Wi-Fi for the public. Panera Bread in Bedford Hills, Salsa Fresca in Bedford Hills, Noka Joes in Katonah and the Katonah Village Library all have free Wi-Fi and outlets for charging phones and computers. Ms. Flournoy questioned why Perks is not allowing the public to use more of its resources during this emergency situation. Why for Gods sake is Perks not stepping up to support the community that supports them?, she said How about some love here? Would it kill them to open up their Wi-Fi for us, provide some charging stations, and put a little table in the bathroom so people could maybe set down a little bag and brush teeth? And how about refilling water bottles? Not only would it show their support, it would make economic sense in terms of reputation, no? Ms. Flournoy, who owns Really Social Strategies, is also reporting that Natures Temptations is open and roasting rotisserie chickens. People can call to hold one for them: 203-438-6335. Also, Natures Temptations is welcoming people to come to their cafe and charge cell phones, computers and use the bathroom. Theyre open as usual today from 9 to 7, with hot coffee, Wi-Fi, clean bathrooms and food. Ms. Flournoy said the cafe has a good space to sit and work. They are also offering people to come refill their water bottles. Ross Bread over in Copps Hill in Ridgefield is also back up and running with a full menu. They also have Wi-Fi access and bathrooms. Another resident reported on Tuesday that the cell service in the Goldens Bridge shopping center was great. There is also access to WiFi in the center parking lot, but only for those with an Optimum account. One resident told The Ledger that the Shell gas station at the corner of Route 35 and Route 121 North had been charging $0.30 more a gallon when they were running on a generator. Lewisboros annual Labor Day soccer tournament is still scheduled for this Saturday at Onatru Farm. Tournament officials said they may need some generators to run the concessions should the power remain out, but that the tournament, which normally attracts about 70 to 80 soccer teams, will go on. Chief Secret said that the highway department did a good job clearing the roads,

although a Vista resident told The Ledger Monday morning that trees remained down everywhere. Lewisboro police had officers on duty for the extent of the peak of the storm. Emergency responders have been working around the clock in the aftermath of the storm all local fire and ambulance volunteers were on duty from Friday night starting at 6 through Monday evening. A number of ambulance corps members were on duty for 72 to 84 hours, or more in some cases. The local volunteer fire departments are looking for volunteers to man the phones while they continue to respond to town emergencies. Contact the local departments if interested. The storm did more than just close roads and down power lines. A tree landed on the garage of Roland Breiteneckers Hunts Farm Road home in Waccabuc at 3 a.m. on Sunday. No one was hurt. The tree was removed Monday morning. It was a very loud bang and then silence, Mr. Breitenecker said. Thankfully, everybodys fine. He thanked James Herzog of the South Salem Fire Department for helping them out. Joanna Walshs house on Route 124 was flooded Sunday, although the waters have receded. She said its the third time it has flooded in the last three years, and that is because the state doesnt clean out the tunnel under Route 124 by her home. Ms. Walsh said she has to uses towels to remove the dirt that the water deposits on her floors. Although the water is gone, the stream next to her house was still flowing hard on Monday. You could hear the rocks tumbling above the waterfall, she said. Despite the storms power, not every place was forced to close Camerons Deli was packed on Monday, and the owner said it was just as busy on Sunday. People came in all day yesterday, he said. I cant tell you how many compliments we had. We never close. Its good to help the community out. The Route 35 business sold out of ice on Sunday but they had stocked up on supplies on Thursday. They lost power Sunday morning at 8 and have been running on a generator since then.

Douglas forces Republican primary for District 2 race

by Ken Mastro Ledger Editor Republican Lisa Douglas, who is running for the county legislature District 2 seat, has gathered enough signatures on petitions to force a Republican primary on Sept. 13 against the Republican endorsed candidate, Peter Michaelis. This will be the only primary in Lewisboro. Im proud to have had the hundreds of registered Republicans sign our petition to put me on the ballot for a primary election in September, said Ms. Douglas of North Salem. Ive dedicated the last two years of my life on a volunteer basis to publicly fight the Democratic agenda of out of control spending and big government. My public positions are clear on the issues. We have not seen nor heard from Mr. Michaelis for the last four years since he ran for this seat unsuccessfully. He has been silent the last two years. That is a failure of leadership on his part, and now only when it behooves him personally to run for office, has he come forward. Most recently, Ms. Douglas served on the school board for North Salem. Prior to that, she was president of the North Salem Middle/High School Parent Teacher Organization. I welcome Ms. Douglas to the race, said Mr. Michaelis. This is democracy at its best. I had hoped to have a primary on the Independence line as well, but [incumbent Democrat] Pete Harckham was afraid to face voters at the ballot box so he silenced the peoples voice with a lawsuit. Families in District 2 are tired of [Mr.] Harckham representing down county interests instead of their own. And fortunately, out of the primary election process, they will have a good candidate in either Ms. Douglas or me to hold Mr. Harckhams feet to the fire in November. Mr. Michaeliss efforts to have an Independence Party primary were ended in August when a judge ruled that a number of signatures obtained from party voters that would have qualified him were not properly validated by a notary. Mr. Harckham was endorsed by the Independence Party.

Keep it slow

ven with the slower than usual pace of summer, it once again seems to have flown by at record speed. But theres one part of the lazy, mellow days of summer that all Lewisboroans should try to carry over into the autumn months and the upcoming school year: when it comes to hitting the road, keep it slow. Next week, kids will don their new sneaks and back-to-school outfits, backpacks will be filled with new binders, textbooks, and pencil cases, and students will flock to street corners and the ends of driveways to wait for the bus. Many will instead pile into parents cars to catch a ride to school. For those who find themselves behind a wheel of a car next week, take a deep breath and repeat this mantra: The childrens safety is paramount. Drivers need to respect the sanctity of school buses even though its really annoying to be stuck behind one when you are late for work. In fact, remember to treat buses with reverence and a slight bit of healthy fear especially when you are stuck behind one when you are late for work. Thats when its most tempting to speed up a little or to swerve around the bus when it makes one of its frequent stops. One word: Dont. Dont ever pass a bus when its lights yellow or red are flashing. If a bus coming toward you is stopped or slowing down, stop immediately; dont ever speed up to avoid the 30-second wait. The probability of a child being nearby is about 100%. The possibility of one of those children darting into the road must be on each drivers mind every time a bus comes into view. Arriving at your destination a few minutes later is always something you can live with if you realize the possible alternative involves someone not living at all. The pace of everyday life is about to pick up make sure as a driver yours stays summertime slow.

eptember is the month of summers last fling and winters first beckoning, a time when the thermometers might hit 90, yet when you could find the first frost on your lawn. Septembers average high temperature is 74, and low, 50, a range that many would consider just about ideal. But records for the past 20 years show Septembers possibilities for extremes: 100 and 23 degrees. The average first frost here is around Sept. 22. September has also been a dry month, averaging only 3.8 inches of rain over the past two decades, one inch less than August or July, or even November. It also has averaged fewer rainy days than any other month just six. While that dryness may desiccate lawns and strain wells despite the seemingly endless rain this August Septembers weather is about the best that our part of the world has to offer. Many sunny days that are crisp, yet mild, make for great times outdoors. No wonder the Mohawks called Septembers full moon Seskhoko-wa time of much freshness.

Time of freshness

There is no excuse for NYSEGs prolonged power outage

This is a copy of a letter sent to New York State Electric & Gas (NYSEG). To the Editors: We are now 41 hours into this outage. The fact that this far in, you are unable to give us an estimated time for the repair is very disturbing. We were hit with a category 1 hurricane that was quickly downgraded to a tropical storm. The idea that you have to rebuild your system is laughable. What would you do if a real catastrophe hit? It is a sad reflection on you that you cannot even assess the number of homes without power. First it was 975 homes in our area. After approximately 30 hours you stated that our power had returned. It took my having to jump through hoops to get someone on the phone to tell them that, in fact, we did not have power. Your Web site would not take the report since, according to you, our power was restored. For the next two hours following my telephone call, it was two homes in my area without power. Next, it was 458 homes in my area without power. So, which is it? Do you even know? The upside to all of this is that we are not using any power provided by you at this time, so you will not earn a dime off of us. Long before this, NYSEG should have been on top of the problem. You should have been fully aware of the fact that your system was unable to survive a tropical storm. There is no excuse for this other than poor management and oversight. I request a response from your corporate office as to why this abysmal situation continues to persist and why you are continuously unable to give us any hope of a restoration of power at any time in the near future. ELLEN R. TILLEM Katonah, Aug. 29

South Salem Fire Department volunteers make great sacrifices

To the Editors: This is not the first time the South Salem Fire Department comes to the rescue for my family. The first time was in 2008, our vehicle had caught fire in our garage. The second time was on the evening of Sunday, Aug., 29, in the aftermath of Hurricane Irene. Like countless other community members, our basement flooded. Thanks to the tireless dedication of our well-respected community member, Wayne Coluccini, and the South Salem Fire Department, our basement was pumped out. Our volunteer fire department makes the ultimate sacrifice; they leave their own homes and families during times of crisis and tirelessly aid neighbors, friends and strangers in the community. The South Salem Fire Department has been busily answering calls since the hurricane devastated our area. When the firemen left our house, they were rushing off to aid another family in need. These men are the epitome of professionalism and unselfishness. The next time a volunteer member of the South Salem Fire Department politely asks you to take a detour because of a road incident, please thank him for his volunteer efforts on behalf of our community. Do not snarl because you will arrive at your destination a few minutes later than you anticipated, be grateful that our community has such a dedicated and compassionate volunteer fire department. My family is appreciative of the combined efforts of the South Salem Fire Department and its commitment to our community. LANCE THOMPSON RONNIE THOMPSON South Salem, Aug. 29

Stormy weather
By the time you read this, it will be September, and we will have either survived a really bad hurricane, muddled through a run-of-the-mill storm, or possibly all been blown and washed away never to be heard from again. Maybe even a combination of all three. Ill leave it up to whoever is still around to decide which. With a high probability that the power will go out and take a while to come back on, Im writing before any of that happens in order to ensure that those who survive have the opportunity to read this and, of course, learn from it. But what will they learn from it? These days, I frequently find myself wondering if were even capable of learning anything. Fortunately, in at least in this one instance, we seem to have learned a lot. I cant recall ever seeing such thorough and timely emergency preparations ahead of an expected severe weather event. Granted, we dont usually have an opportunity for such clear advance warnings of a potential disaster. In this case, the signs were hard to ignore, and officials all over the area didnt hesitate to take action. My gut feeling is that this is all a direct result of Katrina. Now, nobody wants to be caught with their pants... er, plans down. Nobody wants to be the one on the receiving end when all the finger pointing starts. But lets be honest: It was the overwhelming evidence and unanimity of forecasts which made it less likely, even if the storm took a sudden turn or abruptly lost its punch, that anyone could charge the preparations were an overreaction. Thats what usually happens. How many times have weather forecasters told us there was a huge snowstorm on the way, only to have it peter out and amount to some drizzle? We are, at least when it comes to disasters, a profoundly doubtful and cynical bunch. (Note: I will now assume the role of some hypothetical you, or them.) Is there really a big storm coming? Show me. Is continued burning of carbon-based fuels really having a detrimental effect on the climate? Prove it, and then prove it again, and then explain why some people still claim its not and then prove it once again. Is having a nuclear power plant in your backyard a bad idea? Explain why, and convince me I should believe you and not all the people who work for Entergy or have their property taxes subsidized by the plant, and then prove to me that what happened in Japan has any chance of happening here, and then tell me exactly how youre going to replace the electricity produced by the plant (because Im much more likely to believe doubts expressed by any and all plant apologists than doubts expressed by nay-saying environmentalists). Okay, thats enough of that. Youve just survived the wrath of Irene, and you dont need more of my political diatribes. So heres an idea: Why cant we put everybody back to work, and simultaneously solve a huge recurring problem, by launching a national initiative to simply bury all of our power lines? Come on, it has to have occurred to you, too. Every time theres any kind of storm, the first thing that happens is hundreds or thousands of people lose electricity. Heck, there doesnt even have to be a storm; all you need is somebody hitting a utility pole, or some squirrel getting fried in a transformer. And why does this constantly happen? Because, with the exception of a few major urban and some isolated suburban areas, all of the power for our hightech world is transported on wires attached to poles, vulnerable to every wind or ice storm, falling tree, wayward car or suicidal squirrel. How insane is that? Im sure that the idea of burying all power lines is considered prohibitively expensive, and thus impossible. Not enough of an economic return. Really? Consider how much is spent to repair downed wires. Consider how much all the spoiled food costs. Consider what is spent repairing burst water pipes. Think how much insurance premiums must rise to cover claims for damage due to lack of power alone. Half of the preparations we took in advance of Irene were in anticipation of the power going out. How much do power companies spend trimming and cutting down trees every year in an attempt to limit the inevitable? What is the cost in lost productivity when computers dont work? Wish I knew the answers. All I know is John Fogertys lyrics: I hear hurricanes ablowing. I know the end is coming soon. I fear rivers over flowing. I hear the voice of rage and ruin. And Harold Arlen and Ted Koehlers: Dont know why theres no sun up in the sky, storm ... Whoa! The suns back? Never mind.

A campaign collapses
If youre a Lewisboro parent with a teenage driver in your house, the sound of jingling car keys and the phrase Ill text you bye! can probably be heard in your home, too, on weekends. And as a parent watching the kid you raised head out the door for the evening, you too probably have two immediate thoughts. Your first thought a hope, really is that your young driver is smart enough to heed your admonition not to drink and drive. Your second thought more a prayer, actually is that your child doesnt meet up with anyone who has. But you too probably never entertained this thought I hope the town supervisor isnt on the road tonight. Voters in Lewisboro dont ask for much. They want good schools, plowed streets, clean parks, and responsive police and fire departments. Thats pretty much it. Oh, yeah, one more thing they dont want the guy they elected town supervisor to get arrested for drunk driving on one of the most treacherous roads in town. The arrest of Town Supervisor Charles Duffy for drunk driving at 10:30 p.m. on a mid-August Friday evening was quickly followed by the collapse of Mr. Duffys re-election campaign and, with it, the Republican Partys electoral hopes. Most crisis management experts will tell you that there are only two politically palatable responses in this situation: either the charges are false and Im fighting them or Im sorry and Im seeking help. Politics has a short menu. Mr. Duffy decided to go with this approach: I will speak to this directly and openly as soon as my attorneys advise me that it is the appropriate time. Poor choice. Of course, Mr. Duffy wasnt alone in making poor choices. His Republican running mates, Rhea Mallet and John Pappalardo, werent exactly carving profiles in courage as they ducked every opportunity to comment on the situation. That wont last long, once they start facing questions about their support of Mr. Duffy from the mini-van moms driving the kids to the bus stop. Odds are the GOP ticket wont be making any campaign appearances at the local chapter of Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Even Republican Town Board members Peter DeLucia and Frank Kelly couldnt get their stories straight. The latter endorsed Mr. Duffy for a second term, while the former only endorsed his continuing in office long enough to complete the 2012 budget. Mr. Duffys supporters have offered two inherently contradictory defenses of the silent supervisor: first, it is unfair to judge Mr. Duffys actions prior to a judicial determination; and, second, regardless of that determination, the entire matter is none of his constituents business. Well. Mr. Duffy has not denied: that he was stopped by a state trooper for swerving across a double-yellow line at night on a dangerous two-lane highway; that he refused a Breathalyzer test; and that he failed a field sobriety test. If what transpired Aug. 12 is not sufficiently egregious to warrant electoral condemnation, what is the standard that we should apply in judging whether Mr. Duffy remains fit to hold public office? What if Mr. Duffy had also wrapped his car around a tree? What if he had damaged private property? Or, God forbid, killed someone? Must we wait for the Supreme Court to deny Mr. Duffys appeal before opining? What the Republicans refuse to acknowledge is that its legitimate for voters to ask how they can trust Mr. Duffy in the Town House if they cant trust him to get there safely. Here at Briefing Book, we sympathize with Mr. Duffys personal dilemma, but sympathy doesnt mean shielding him from the political consequences of his public behavior. Thats not how it works. Mr. Duffy lost his most precious political asset last month he got people mad at him. People were not mad at Mr. Duffy before this. In fact, he didnt inspire much of a reaction either way. Not anymore. Now people are angry. And in politics, its not good to get people angry at you. And although anger wanes and people are forgiving, forgiveness has to be earned. Mr. Duffy hasnt earned it. You have to ask for forgiveness, not demand it. Mr. Duffy didnt ask. He didnt even apologize. Instead, he lawyered up. Hes doing his job, the desperate Republicans cried, what more do you want? We want public officials who are stable and responsible, and who demonstrate maturity and good judgment in public. Is that too much to ask? Every political campaign is eventually tested in a defining moment. The supervisor also took that test last month. What the Republicans cant accept is that he failed that one, too.

Lewisboro Senior Adults seeks new members, ideas

by Ramona Pfau Seniors Columnist Every two years, the Lewisboro Senior Adults elect a president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and three members at large. On Aug. 24, this election took place and the following officials were elected: Ramona Pfau, president, David Hirsch, vice-president, Joan Zurell, secretary, Laurie Wiegand, treasurer, and Muriel DeLorio, Joyce Nicolleti and Terry Vnuczenski, members-at-large. For me being president of anything puts me in both a surprising and unusual state. For years my husband, who served in the Army would tell me, I learned never to volunteer for anything, for if I did, I would find myself cleaning out the latrines. So how did my presidency come about? When the nominating committee asked if Id like to run, I explained that I was writing about the seniors doings, and that was taking up my time. However, I thought that perhaps someone else should give writing these articles a try a new, different and fresh viewpoint type of voice. Muriel DeLorio said she would try, so there went my excuse. The nominating committee would have liked another candidate for president, to give the membership a choice, but no one else volunteered, so my fate was sealed. Truthfully, I felt very honored to even be selected. Exactly what are the duties and responsibilities of the Lewisboro Senior Adults president? The president leads the monthly membership business meeting and joins the other elected officials, together with Pam Veith, our director, in the monthly executive board meeting. What is discussed at this meeting I will now find out. (I always wondered what went on at these meetings. It will probably be something dull like fiscal matters or not.) Currently, the Lewisboro Senior Adults go on monthly trips, have luncheons at the firehouse where we meet, and have book discussions, led by the Lewisboro Library director, Cindy Rubino. We have a timely visit by Flo Brodley who discusses that confusing topic Medicare and we have visits by Gossett Brothers Nursery to help us with our plantings. We have put on plays and sing-a-longs and once in a while we play bingo. Wed like to share all this with more Lewisboro seniors, and also get new input from them as to what more we seniors can do. As you can see, becoming president has made me gung-ho for the seniors. But the best part about being president is I can say, Hail to the chief! Thats me.

D r . Engel w e n t rafting with four Continued from Page 1A o t h e r people in the Croton River at C r o t o n on-Hudson, when their raft flipped over, sending them into the raging waters, according to police. At 6:24 p.m., Croton police said they saw Mr. Engels body floating down river, apparently unresponsive. He then was pulled aboard the Croton police zodiac boat and transported to the Echo landing point, while being given CPR, police said. He was transferred to an ambulance and taken to the hospital. He was the fourth of the five occupants of the raft discovered by Croton police. All of the other boaters were rescued, including three firefighters who were also tossed into the water while trying to save the boaters. Mr. Engel died of asphyxia due to drowning and hypothermia. Police began searching for the men after receiving numerous calls from residents reporting an overturned blue raft. The first person located was Joseph Ceglia, 33, of White Plains, who was found clinging to tree branches in the rapids near a section of the river known as Mayos landing, according to police. At the same time, the Croton police boat and the Croton Fire Department rescue boat were being deployed into the Croton River at Echo landing, approximately a half-mile down river. As this was taking place, the fire departments boat capsized in the rapid current and three firefighters had to be rescued from the Hudson River, after floating under the

train trestle at the end of the rapidly flowing Croton River, police said. One of the boaters, Kenneth Giaquinto, 37, of Valhalla, was able to get himself to the shoreline on the Ossining side of the Croton River and flag down a passing motorist at around 6, according to police. Another occupant of the overturned raft, Michael Wolfert, 37, of Croton-onHudson, was able to climb ashore, police said. After discovering Dr. Engels body, an extensive ground, water and aerial search was underway for the fifth occupant, Brian Dooley, 33, of Yorktown Heights, who was still missing. At approximately 7:30 p.m., Mr. Dooley was observed clinging to a tree in extreme rapids by two Croton residents in an area just south of Silver Lake Park. Police said this location was extremely dangerous due to the extensive rapids and steep slopes of the shoreline, making it very hazardous to deploy a rescue operation. At 8:45, Mr. Dooley broke free from the tree he was clinging to and floated in the rapids downstream where he was rescued by the Croton police and pulled aboard the police boat in an area of the river know as Dickeys Cliffs, police said. Mr. Dooley was then transported to an ambulance and taken to the Westchester County Medical Center where he was admitted for extreme exposure and hypothermia, police said. Police said the boaters entered the Croton River in Cortland, at the foot of the Croton Dam in Croton Gorge Park. The five negotiated the extreme rapids downstream and overturned just south of the Silver Lake Park, according to police.

advantage of our teachers will be that they get to develop online courses. Kids will have broadened horizons. The other districts participating in the initiative are Bedford, Chappaqua, Lakeland, Mamaroneck, Ossining, Peekskill and Yorktown. I think a secondary gain is that students will have an opportunity to interact with students beyond our district, Ms. Doherty said. Theyll have exposure to students who they wouldnt typically be exposed to. I suspect that as kids move on, the expectations to how were all proficient online is growing. This is good practice for kids for how to navigate those worlds. The four courses being offered are Environmental Physics: a CitizensGuide to the Planet, Take Action! Support a Sustainable Community, Making a Lasting Impression: Architecture Across the Centuries and Today, and Wanted: Solutions to Problems of the 21st Century Needed: More than Just Good Ideas. Getting started Ms. Doherty said the idea for the online program began taking shape at the beginning of the last school year and was put together through BOCES. About 15 to 20 course proposals were submitted from teachers in the eight districts, Ms. Doherty said, and the four classes were chosen from that group. She said that only four courses were chosen so that the first year would be manageable, with room for more courses in the future. Those four classes were included in the course catalog at the end of the 2010-11 school year so that students could choose them for this school year. Christopher Griffin, John Jays director of school counseling, told The Ledger recently that six John Jay students were signed up for the online

Ziemba graduates

Jamie Ziemba of Goldens Bridge graduated magna cum laude from Vanderbilt University in May with a bachelors degree in English and history.

environmental physics course and one John Jay student was enrolled in the 21st Century solutions course. The remaining slots in those classes are filled up by students from the seven other districts. Fortunately, we didnt have to go to a lottery system because we didnt exceed the number of seats in any course, Ms. Doherty said. In the future, I guess districts will have to come together and make decisions [if too many students sign up for the courses]. Environmental physics is the only one out of the four online courses that is being taught by a John Jay teacher this year; the other three are being taught by teachers from the other seven districts, all of whom received training to teach online. Environmental physics, which is being taught by David Gewanter and Jim Panzer, is also being offered as a traditional, brick-andmortar class with 24 students enrolled. Students at JJHS can now choose either the brick-andmortar version in my classroom or the online version, with its time-shifted advantages, Mr. Gewanter told The Ledger recently in an e-mail. The online courses will have students collaborate in online discussions and activities, using webinars, chats, forums and social networking tools, according to a BOCES press release. Students will also meet in person at two daylong gatherings at the BOCES campus in Yorktown. Managing time Students who are enrolled in an online course will have it built into their daily schedules just like traditional classes; the difference will be that students will not have a specific classroom or location to report to during that time. They can choose to work on those courses in the library during that period, for example, or they could simply have a free period and opt to do the work at another time, such as in the evening or on the weekend. Part of the challenge for a student [taking an online course] is how do you manage

time, Ms. Doherty said. It will be interesting to see how students who chose this will manage this. The John Jay students who signed up for the online courses are upperclassmen, though, and have already gotten used to having free periods and completing course work on their own time. Most of them specifically took a free period because they knew they would have to complete this [online] work, Mr. Griffin said. I think they have tremendous flexibility for when and where they work on this material. Some of the challenges presented by the online courses will be pragmatic and probably sort themselves out with time, Ms. Doherty said. How do kids access things [for the courses]? she said. Is our technology working the way we hoped it would? Are experiential lab assignments working for kids online? Are kids able to communicate with their classmates in other districts effectively? A lot of logistical and technical things I expect will challenge us in the first year. The rest will be fascinating. More than online, these are hybrid courses. I think its going to be very exciting. I think for teachers its a different way of teaching. The way that teachers teach when theyre in the room with kids, they sort of have to figure out a whole new of communicating with them. Mr. Gewanter stressed that teaching remains the basis of education regardless of the classroom setting, and that online learning merely enhances the opportunities for learning. Whether in a classroom or online, good teaching has always involved forming meaningful learning relationships, he said. The challenge now is to interact effectively and frequently using a host of online tools. The web provides many opportunities unheard of a short time ago. This is a marvelous opportunity for our students and our faculty [to] help chart the future of online education.

PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN

(never known to fail)

Oh, most beautiful ower of Mt. Carmel, fruitful vine splendor of Heaven. Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. O, Star Of the Sea, help me and show me, herein you are my Mother. Oh, Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth! I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity. There are none that can withstand your power. Oh, show me herein that you are my mother. Oh, Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee (say three times). Holy Mary, I place this cause for your hands (say three times). Holy Spirit, you who solve all problems, light all roads so that I can attain my goal. You who gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me and that in all instances in my life you are with me. I want in this short prayer to thank you for all things as you conrm once again that I never want to be separated from you in eternal glory. Thank you for your mercy toward me and mine. Say this prayer for three days and the request will be granted. This prayer must be published after the favor is granted. Thank You Blessed Mother. J.M.H. & D. H.
