Advocates ask Flanagan to foster campaign finance reformBy Phil COrsO

Time is running out for the state Legislature to change the way it allows money to influence politics, and Long Island activists took to the Senate majority lead-er’s Smithtown office on Tuesday to make some noise.

A loophole in the state’s cam-paign finance laws has become a political talking point for the better part of the past year, allow-ing limited liability companies to contribute large sums of cash to political campaigns and commit-tees in amounts far greater than the average corporation can.

On Tuesday, groups including Common Cause New York and MoveOn.org took to the office of state Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) to draw attention to legislation that was written to change that, with hopes of swaying a vote on the Senate floor before session ends June 16.

Susan Lerner, executive director of Common Cause New York, said her group, which investigates public officials and political con-tributions, found the state Senate Republican Campaign Committee was one of the largest benefactors of what has been dubbed the LLC loophole, bringing in about $5.6 million in campaign contributions

from LLCs over the past 10 years — with 68 percent of this sum coming from the real estate in-dustry. The Senate Housekeeping Committee also netted more than $11 million over the past 10 years in the same fashion.

Lerner argued that as long as elected leaders are receiving such lump sums of money from politically motivated groups, they will never allow for legislation to come to a full vote enacting any

kind of change.“It’s time for the Senate Re-

publicans to stop blocking the necessary reforms,” she said. “The LLC loophole has a warping affect on public policy.”

Flanagan, who the Long Island advocates singled out on Tues-day as one of the benefactors of LLC contributions to the tune of $159,000 over the past 10 years, referred to the legislation as a “red herring that fails to funda-

mentally address the root cause” of the campaign finance flaws. He said the state needed to be more aggressive in beefing up money laundering laws and targeting straw donors to keep groups from contributing in the shadows.

“If we are going to achieve real campaign finance reform and target corruption, you can’t close one loophole and declare the job done,” Flanagan said. “In fact, one needs to look no further than New York City for evidence of multiple campaign finance transgressions that must be addressed. We need to take additional steps to pre-vent the funneling of big money through county organizations and directing where that money will be spent, which is already illegal under state law.”

Senate bill S60B has been sit-ting in the Senate’s Codes Com-mittee since May 9. The bill, which state Sen. Daniel Squadron (D-Brooklyn) introduced, saw suc-cess in the Democrat-controlled Assembly in the past before dying in the Senate. In the legislation, Squadron argued that the Legis-lature must avoid such loopholes that allow “unlimited sums of anonymous dollars to undermine the entire political process.”

Lisa Oldendorp, of MoveOn.org’s Long Island chapter, said the

political loophole was a threat to democracy in the United States.

“We are sick and tired of the role that money plays in cam-paigns,” she said. “It’s way beyond time to pass this law. We want the voice of the people to be heard.”

Alejandra Sorta, organizer of the Long Island Civic Engagement Table, which works with working class communities of color to turn the tide of anti-immigrant and anti-worker politics, said the tim-ing was right for such legislation to pass, citing various corruption scandals sprouting up across vari-ous local and state governments, which has taken down some major political players.

“In light of persistent corrup-tion charges, indictments and/or convictions stemming from unethi-cal and illegal activity at the hands of some of our most powerful and influential leaders in Albany,” she said, “we demand concrete electoral reforms that will assure transparency and accountability at every level of government.”

With Su� olk red light cameras upheld, residents respondBY DESIRÉE KEEGAN

The Legislature may not be behind them, but Suffolk County residents are still calling the red light camera program a money grab and a safety hazard.

People cried out in support of county Leg-islator Rob Trotta’s (R-Fort Salonga) bill to suspend the county’s program during a Public Safety Committee meeting on May 26, but the Suffolk legislative commit-tee stopped it from coming to fruition. The vote was 5 to 3 against a motion to move the bill to the full county Legislature for a vote after nearly 20 resi-dents spoke up against the use of the cameras.

Stephen Ruth Jr. pleaded not guilty at his arraignment on June 3 to 17 counts of criminal mischief after allegedly tampering with 16 red light cameras at intersections along Route 25 in Coram. He also spoke at the Legislature meeting late last month.

“Red light cameras are a detriment to Suffolk County,” he said. “The risks and damages to the well-being of Suffolk Coun-ty residents far outweigh the benefi ts. We all know now that red light cameras are a systematic form of extortion and nothing more. … Traffi c signals were manipulated for revenue and it was only made possible by Suffolk County’s reckless willingness to do anything for money.”

Residents cited statistics to try to back up their issues with the program, using a

42 percent increase in rear-end collisions in 2014 as evidence of the program’s short-comings, and said nearly half of the loca-tions where cameras were installed showed an increase in personal injury.

“You’re not here working for the middle class people, you’re actually hurting them,” Hector Gavilla said. “The program is not working at all. We were promised that these red light cameras would stop these incidents.”

But overall, crashes have decreased by 3.1 percent, while T-bone crashes have decreased by 21.6 percent. The data also refl ects an overall decrease in crashes involving injury by 4.2 per-cent, based upon data from the New York State Depart-ment of Transportation’s most current data available as of December 2014.

Rachel Lugo, who has worked in highway safety for over 20 years, was the only person to speak in support of the cameras. She said that although crashes have increased, she believes it’s not because of the cameras, but as a result of more new drivers on the road, and “increasingly dangerous” is-sues like texting or drinking while driving.

“You can’t say that these crashes are increasing because of red light cameras,” she said. “What about stop signs? Let’s take them away also. Why don’t we just take away traffi c lights? Red light cameras are not the problem. Teaching the motor-ists to change their behavior behind the wheel is where we need to start. If every-one stopped at the red lights we wouldn’t

have to worry about what’s going on with fi nes and who is making money.”

There are statistics to back her up. Paul Margiotta, executive director of Suffolk Coun-ty’s Traffi c and Parking Violations Agency, said that between 2012 and 2013, the county saw a 34,000 increase in licensed drivers, where prior to 2012 the average was trending down. He said citations for texting and driving and distracted driving doubled since 2011, which tends to cause rear-end crashes.

Legislator William Spencer (D-Centerport) joined Leslie Kennedy (R-Nesconset) and Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) in voting for the bill. He asked to put the program under a microscope. “We have to do something,” Spencer said. “It’s hard for me to discount the public outcry.”

According to William Hillman, Suffolk’s chief engineer, that investigation is ongo-ing. The county is in the process of review-ing crash data at the 42 intersections it controls. The state controls the other 58 intersections with cameras.

“These intersections where there’s been that high uptick, all due haste is needed in reviewing what is going on so that we have a real answer,” Hahn said. “There’s a huge increase in crashes just in general because of distracted driving. … Red light cameras are not going to stop that. What red light cameras were designed to do was for the folks who were choosing to put their foot on the gas when the light turns yellow, to rethink that.”

The Northport board of education voted to move forward with improvements to sci-ence, athletic, and structural parts of the district Thursday night.

Superintendent Robert Banzer said the major goals of the capital improvements were to replace aging infrastructure and provide students and the community with more use-ful physical education and athletic facilities.

Infrastructure improvements included replacing bathrooms, windows, and ceil-ings in classrooms from kindergarten through high school. At the presentation last Thursday night, Banzer went through several photos showing cracked counter-tops, and antiquated lavatories.

“Some of our buildings are very old and we need to take a cold, hard look at them,” he said.

Tony Resca, a member of the capital projects committee, said the district need-ed to create state-of-the-art science labs, which would “foster inquiry-based scientif-ic experimentation” and “strengthen over-all STEM learning outcomes.”

Changes would include new desks de-signed to form into lab stations as well as new fume hoods and cabinetry for lab chemicals.

“These lab benches and work desks … are modular, they are moveable and fl ex-ible and they can be moved at a moment’s notice to accommodate a wide variety of science-related activities,” Resca said.

Talks for improving the athletic facilities at Northport have been underway for more than a year and projects included better ir-rigation systems for athletic fi elds, a new sta-dium at the high school with a turf fi eld, a new track, a concession stand, outdoor bath-rooms, and a replacement of tennis courts.

Paul Klimuszko, director of physical edu-cation, athletics and health, and a member of the committee, talked about the impor-tance of replacing certain fi elds at North-port and improving irrigation at others.

“Whether it rains during the game or days before, this is what the fi eld typically ends up looking like during a game,” Klimuszko said as he pointed to a photo of the high school foot-ball team playing in a fi eld covered in mud. He also said that fi eld was heavily used, which diminished its quality and made it less acces-sible to the greater Northport community.

“Even when the team is out for half-time, the marching band is putting on a half-time show, so that fi eld never gets a break,” he said.

Under Banzer’s suggestion, the district will now seek prices and plans from an archi-tect to achieve the plans listed in capital proj-ects that were voted for in the May budget.

Something seems fishy this black sea bass fishing season.

Local legislators, fishers and state organi-zations alike agree that there are issues with how black sea bass fishing is being regulated.

U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) called for modifications to what he said are “inflexible” and “outdated” federal regula-tions for black sea bass fishing, which some North Shore fisherman said are hurting their wallets because they have to wait to fish during this crucial fishing period.

Schumer said at an event in Northport last Wednesday that the bottom feeders are not being fairly managed, and the next per-mitted fishing period should be allowed to start in June instead of July to put people to work at harvesting the plentiful populations.

“After a slow start to the black sea bass season, mostly due to weather, our Long Island commercial fishers are ready to bounce back and access the plentiful sup-ply of sea bass,” Schumer said at the event. “But instead they might fall flat if the feds and the state don’t throw them a line and let them do what they do best — fish.”

Three organizations — the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Mid-Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission — jointly manage black sea bass fishing, by determining the quota for sea bass each year. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation then deter-mines the quota distribution through the state and periods throughout the year when fishermen can fish for black sea bass.

The quota this year was set at about 189,000 pounds and the most recent pe-

riod for sea bass fishing ended on May 31, with the next slated to begin on July 1.

According to the Atlantic States group, “The objectives of [management] are to reduce fishing mortality to assure over-fishing does not occur, … promote com-patible regulations among states and be-tween federal and state jurisdictions…and to minimize regulations necessary to achieve the stated objectives.”

Kirby Rootes-Murdy, that commission’s senior fishery management plan coordina-tor, said it works to ensure that the black sea bass population stays at a safe level.

But Schumer said the break in June is only hurting fishermen.

“Below-average black sea bass catch rates … have made it so the total catch at this point of the season is well below the allowable quota limits,” Schumer said, “which is why it is critical to allow these struggling fishermen to continue catching

black sea bass this month.”Sean Mahar, the DEC director of commu-

nications, acknowledged fishing got off to a slow start, and said the DEC is committed to re-opening the season before the July 1 date, as long as it’s accurate that anglers are below quota — the agency is still investigating that.

Through May 21, only one-third of the May quota had been harvested, “with ap-proximately 42,000 pounds [still] available on May 21,” Mahar said in an email.

“However, the harvest rate increased dra-matically the last week in May, and the state is still awaiting data from the commercial fishermen and dealers that are required to submit landings and sales reports to DEC to determine the how much of the quota was actually harvested. If there is quota leftover, we will open the season again sooner than July 1.”

Mahar also said the DEC has pressed federal regulators, including the Atlantic

States commission, to implement changes to improve fishery in New York, including the system for tabulating bass populations.

“The increasingly restrictive measures demanded of Northeastern states are in-equitable and cause great socioeconomic harm to our anglers and related business-es,” DEC Acting Commissioner Basil Seggos said in a statement. Regulatory agencies “must revise their management strategy and not keep New York … at a competi-tive disadvantage while the black sea bass population continues to grow.”

Rootes-Murdy said these decisions on quotas are based on population projections for the species but black sea bass pose a challenge for accurate projections, as they are a hermaphroditic species, meaning they change sex from male to female.

“That aspect makes it difficult to de-velop a population model around,” Rootes-Murdy said.

North Shore fishermen said the break in the season is hurting their livelihood.

“It’s a disaster for conservation and the economy,” said James Schneider, a boat captain in Huntington. “It’s crushed us.”

Schneider is catching other fish in the meantime and said he has been forced to throw back black sea bass he inadvertently catches. Those die shortly after, he said, fur-ther contributing to a loss in potential profits.

Northport fishing captain Stu Paterson said he agreed that he has had to throw back many sea bass during the off-season, as they “are all over the Sound right now.”

He also questioned why Connecticut’s black sea bass season, which opened on May 1 and runs through Dec. 31, allows fishermen to start earlier than in New York, as they share a body of water.

Northport premieres film on drug addiction and recoveryBy Victoria Espinoza

Community members from all around the Huntington area packed into the John W. Engeman Theater on Tuesday night for a premiere screening of “Grace,” a short film about heroin recovery.

Marisa Vitali, the film’s creator and a Northport native, based the film on her own struggles with drug addiction and rehabilitation.

“I would have never been able to do this without all of you,” Vitali said after receiving a round of applause once the film ended. She shot the motion picture in Northport, primar-ily at Tim’s Shipwreck Diner, and used mem-bers of the community as extras in the film.

During the unveiling, Vitali said she re-alized that she has been clean for 14 years, four months and four days, to the day.

“I am so grateful,” she said. “I am so grate-ful I didn’t wake up dope sick today and I am so grateful I didn’t have to use. Everything else is just a blessing on top of that.”

She then spoke to the people in the room who may be currently going through the same challenge or have a loved one who is.

“I’m sure there are people here who are struggling, who don’t know where to go … but I want to let you know there is a light

at the end of the tunnel. We do recover.”The event was hosted in partnership

with the Northport-East Northport Drug and Alcohol Task Force. Profits from tick-ets, food and raffle tickets sold at the event went toward the Youth Directions and Al-ternatives, a nonprofit organization serv-ing communities throughout Huntington by developing services and sobriety pro-grams for youth in the communities.

According to Anthony Fernandino, chair of the task force, the event had raised $7,500 be-fore raffle ticket proceeds were counted.

Fernandino has been working with Vi-tali for almost four years trying to get the event together and was ecstatic to see it all come together.

“It feels great,” he said before the screen-ing. “We sold out and exceeded our ex-pectations. I’m excited because we have a house full of people that we will be able to educate and bring awareness to this issue.”

Northport Mayor George Doll, who Vi-tali said was a vital part of making the film, was proud to be a part of the event.

“This is a fantastic thing,” he said. “We have people coming here all the time to do films, but hers was special.”

Northport Police Chief Bill Ricca agreed that it was a unique and important ap-

proach to combat addiction.“From a law enforcement standpoint, we

can’t arrest ourselves out of this problem,” he said. “We need the community’s help, we need treatment, prevention, and education.”

After the film, there was a question and answer portion in which audience mem-

bers asked Vitali about how she first got into drugs, got clean and continues to live a healthy life. Barry Zaks, director of Hunting-ton Drug & Alcohol Counseling Center, also answered questions on how and when par-ents should start having conversations about drugs with their kids.

PeoPle

Students from Long Island Lutheran Day School at St. Paul’s in East Northport stepped into the spotlight, thrilling a packed audience at Disney Springs in Florida with their musi-cal talents, energy and choreography. The fourth- and fifth-graders were chosen by the Disney Performing Arts Program to perform.

While there, the students had the opportu-nity to participate in workshops with Disney Imagineers, learning about objects in motion,

physics, performance and animal behavior. Students rode Space Mountain to study

gravity, inertia, kinetic energy and accelera-tion; went behind the scene in the Haunted Mansion to observe the engineering behind the magic; and observed animals up close in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

They also worked with a professional actor and musician, singing, practicing and learn-ing about musical performance.

Drinks video contest.The County Legislature annually invites

high school students to create a 30-second public service announcement video incor-porating their interpretation of the negative health effects associated with consuming stimulant drinks.

sportsInfinite Tucker takes gold in four events

The Huntington boys’ and girls’ track and field teams competed in the New York State Track and Field championship qualifier last weekend at Port Jefferson high school. Members of both squads excelled and even broke records, with multiple athletes on the boys’ squad qualifying to compete at the state level next weekend.

Boys’ track and fieldIn one of the most dominating perfor-

mances ever, Huntington senior Infinite Tucker qualified for the championships in four different events and won gold medals in each of them.

One of the top high school athletes in the country, Tucker captured gold medals in the 110-meter high hurdles, 400 inter-mediate hurdles, long jump and the 4x400 relay, to pace the Blue Devils.

Tucker was on top of his game at the Section XI state qualifier, easily winning the long jump last Friday afternoon with a leap of 23 feet, 4.75 inches before sweeping to victory in three other events on Saturday.

The Huntington athlete won the 110 high hurdles in a time of 14.27 seconds; went on to set new school, meet and coun-ty marks in the 400 intermediate hurdles when he crossed the finish line in a stun-ning 51.23 seconds, which was 2.32 ahead of runner-up Spencer Payton of Longwood; and anchored the Blue Devils’ 4x400 relay team, which grabbed first place with a time of 3 minutes, 15.48 seconds, shattering the existing Suffolk record. Huntington fin-ished about two seconds ahead of runner-up Half Hollow Hills West. Kyree Johnson, Lawrence Leake and Shane McGuire ran the first three legs of the race, respectively.

“Infinite’s performance speaks for it-self,” said Huntington head coach Ron Wilson. “It was beyond dominating; it was simply amazing. He’s a gifted child who loves to compete and who strives to win every time he’s on the track.”

Johnson and McGuire also qualified for the state championships in their respective events. Johnson set new meet records in the 400 dash on both Friday and Saturday, capturing Saturday’s county final in a blaz-ing fast time of 47.78.

McGuire notched an upset victory in the 800 run, coming out of nowhere to topple

several heavily favored runners. The junior ran his fastest time ever in the event, cir-cling the track twice in 1:53.64.

“Shane and Kyree were just great,” Wil-son said. “They came to the meet with one thing in mind: winning. It was an incredible feeling to watch them win Suffolk titles and qualify for the state championships. They’ve both worked so hard and to see that payoff is a wonderful sight.”

Kenny Charles quali-fied for the state finals in discus, finishing second in Suffolk County with a long throw of 162 feet, 2 inches. It was about five feet off the senior’s best, but still far surpassed the state qualifying standard.

Charles is one of Suf-folk’s best basketball play-ers, but decided last year to give spring track a try and, in a short period of time, mastered the discus to the point where he will be advanc-ing to the finals.

Girls’ track and fieldBeing a competitive athlete himself,

girls’ track and field head coach Shawn An-derson knows only too well that not every-thing is going to go right on any given day.

So it was for the Blue Devils, which closed out its season last Saturday at the Suffolk state qualifier.

While he wishes a few more breaks came

the Blue Devils’ way, Anderson also feels his athletes gave the team everything they had.

“The state qualifying meet always brings out the heat and the competition,” said Anderson. “Today was no exception.”

Senior Alexandra Koumas set a new school record in the 400 hurdles, breaking a mark she had previously set, when she crossed the finish line in 1:04.83 in the pre-

liminary heat. The athlete went on to finish fourth in the finals and garner All-County honors.

“She went out super ag-gressive,” Anderson said. “She needed to in order to hang with the top three.”

All in all, Anderson said it was a great way to have the team end its season.

“As always, each year the group of girls that we have continues to impress

me and defy even my expectations,” he said. “For the underclassmen, it just makes them hungrier for next year as they look to improve. As for the seniors, it is always bittersweet when the season ends, but we always look to the future to continue the tradition that’s been established and con-tinuously raise the bar. They laid it all on the track and finished with very impressive times — a testament to their hard work over their careers at Huntington.”

Proportion America’s electoral votes in elections

Get into the mix. Participate in our reader forums @ www.tbrnewsmedia.com

As we quickly approach the presidential election, we are again confronted with the possible inequity of the winner-take-all state elec-toral voting process.

For example, in the year 2000, we witnessed an elec-tion debacle. The “loser” of the U.S. popular vote by about 550,000 votes, George W. Bush, was able to best his opponent Al Gore, simply because he received more votes in one county of one state: Florida. This then gave him a plurality of elec-toral votes nationwide and thus the presidency.

Then, in 2004, we saw the reverse nearly happen. That election’s loser, John Kerry, could have won the presidency, had he received

only about 140,000 more votes in one state: Ohio.

This lopsided victory could have occurred, due to the current electoral process, even though his opponent retained about a 3 million vote nationwide plurality.

The few times that this has happened in our nation’s history, has caused us to question the validity of the electoral college itself. Yet, after a brief furor over this controversy, our country settles down to four more years of inaction.

In November, the U.S. could possibly experience a repeat of the 2000 and nearly the 2004 election, where multimillions more could vote for one candi-

date and the “loser” still win, simply because of the winner-take-all electoral vote system.

If the American political process refuses to complete-ly eliminate this unjust elec-toral method, then it should at least revert to a propor-tional system. This way, every citizen’s vote would go to the candidate of their choice. It’s simply unfair for millions of voters, especially in heavily populated states such as California, New York, Texas or Florida, to have their votes negated because the opponent won a “squeaker” victory in one state.

The United States of America is in the midst of a contentious election cycle.

Money is ‘still the mother’s milk of politics’

If there is but one positive to come out of the contentious primary season for both the Democratic and Republican nominations for U.S. president, it has been a spotlight on the issue of money in politics.

U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) made “political contribu-tions from the millionaire and billionaire class” a cornerstone target of his campaign, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been forced to respond to her clocking in millions of dollars in compensation for speeches she had given to Wall Street bankers and others while not holding public office. On the Republican side, presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump made it a public point of pride that he was not accepting money from other corporate bigwigs, but instead was self-funded or relying on small grassroots contributions.

Clearly, the electorate is sensitive to big money’s influence on politics. Ask anybody on the street if they feel that gigantic chunks of money are perverting American democracy and, chances are, they will agree with you. And here we are.

New York State watchdogs stood in front of the Smithtown office of state Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) on Tuesday to make some noise over his stance on the Senate Republican Campaign and Housekeeping committees accept-ing some $16 million in contributions, thanks to a loophole in campaign finance law that allows limited liability companies to use a much higher contribution limit than corporations do. With the clock ticking before the legislative session comes to a close on June 16, groups like MoveOn.org and Common Cause New York called on Flanagan and his Republican col-leagues who control the Senate to bring a bill to a vote that would close that loophole.

Flanagan did not speak at the press conference, but he did say in a statement that the legislation to close the loophole was a “red herring,” and instead said the state had bigger fish to fry if it were serious about addressing campaign finance reform, like addressing straw donors, for example.

We agree that this LLC loophole is not the end-all solution to campaign finance reform, but it is certainly a piece of it.

There is no doubt about the influence money has on elec-tions and, later on, the votes of those who are elected. Perhaps the problem is so deeply rooted that holding press conferences like the one on Tuesday ends up being more like preaching to the choir than anything else. Some may go into office want-ing to remain completely independent, but find that difficult under the pressure of the way our campaign contribution system works.

Whatever it may be, though, We the People have to find ways to unite with bigger numbers behind a common cause if we expect our elected leaders to rehabilitate their addiction to political money.

W e all have addictions. I don’t mean we’re all addicted to a narcotic, to alcohol or to some-

thing that can cause harm to us, to our families or to our communities.

We think of addictions as negatives, because they suggest a depen-dency or a need for something without which we find ourselves unbalanced, uncomfortable or unhinged.

There are plenty of positive addictions. Many of us are, for

better or worse, addicted to our chil-dren. We want them to succeed, to be happy, to live better lives than we’ve had and to have every opportunity to find their niche.

When they’re born, we become

addicted to the sound of their gig-gling and laughter, which helps us get through those sleepless nights just as effectively as a caffeinated beverage. That sound is more pleasant than the most magnificent music we’ve ever heard, than the calls of birds outside our windows in the morning, or than the school bell that signaled the end of another week and the start of a much-anticipated weekend.

Outside of the home, we can become addicted to victory, whether it’s at work, on a softball field where we are competing against a group of people from another company, or at a traffic light where we want to beat the car next to us to the on-ramp for the Long Island Expressway.

Our bodies become accustomed to these addictions. Runners receive chemical endorphins in the brain that give them a high, allowing them to run much longer than some-one whose would-be endorphins are knocked unconscious by alcohol or are far too overwhelmed from sugar overload to become active. When

you’re driving in extreme heat or cold and you see runners pushing themselves up a steep hill, they are feeding that addiction.

Speaking of feeding, we are ad-dicted to particular foods, or food groups. If we eat cookies every night, our bodies send signals to our brains to find those chocolate chip cookies. We can also become addicted to foods that are healthy for us, like broccoli, blueberries or gluten-free kale pizza.

We can also become addicted to long days of summer sun. When the fall and winter come, we might miss the light, craving it the way we would another cup of mid-afternoon coffee when we’re feeling run down through the day.

But is addiction really the right word? Aren’t these habits and not addictions? I see addictions and habits as a spectrum, somewhat akin to the discussion about what is normal. We all tend to believe we’re normal, but as we know from our own families and from the families we marry into, the range of normal

is broad. Every family has its crazy uncles, its eccentric aunts and its oddball distant cousins. Much as we might like to believe the grass is greener with other families, we know that the more we interact with extended family groups, the more likely we are to observe be-haviors that fall outside the range of what we consider normal.

So, if we recognize our addic-tions, can we change them?

Like any addiction, change is challenging. Plenty of support groups offer help, especially with addictions to alcohol, drugs or other substances. There are also groups like Jenny Craig, which offer to provide balanced meals that help people transition to a different diet.

Even without support groups, though, people can fundamentally change some of their addictions, often when they are so concerned with the happiness of someone else — a spouse, a child, a niece or a parent — that their own needs no longer come first.

Feeding addictions or changing habits?

The column I intended for this week has been put aside. This is a historic moment, and as a

journalist, with a front row on history, and as a woman in what many still think is a man’s job, I cannot let the moment pass without offering the recognition it surely de-serves. Finally, in my lifetime, a woman has become the presidential candidate of one

of the two major parties in the United States of America.

Although I have voted for can-didates of both parties in different presidential elections, depending which one I thought was better, this has nothing to do with party affili-ation. I would never pick party over

country. The triumph of this moment does have to do with a struggle for equality in governing that is as recent as my mother’s hard-won right to vote in the 1920s. Can you imagine a time, not prehistoric but merely one family generation back, when women could not even vote? Or earn careers in medicine, law, business, literature or the arts?

This has nothing to do with whether I like Hillary Clinton or don’t like Hillary Clinton, any more than whether I am a Republican or a Democrat. This turn of events feels like we are emerging from the dark ages and into the sunshine of the 21st century. And to be honest, I am sur-prised at how powerfully this moment affects me.

Yes, I came of age during “wom-en’s lib,” graduating from college at the time Betty Friedan’s book, “The Feminine Mystique,” was published. And yes, I was one of the early wives and mothers in our social circle to balance the needs of a family with those of a business, but frankly I

never thought of myself as a member of “the second sex,” or as a revolu-tionary. I was merely doing what for me “came naturally.” But throughout my life working these dual jobs, I have felt the contradictions within so-ciety about a woman’s “role.” Indeed, my own mother was dead set against my starting a newspaper, accusing me of “abdicating my responsibilities at home.” But I thought all that was long past.

Why shouldn’t a woman lead her party in a run for the presidency? If the population feels she is qualified, why shouldn’t she lead her coun-try as president? Now there is a lot more going on during this vindictive presidential campaign than women’s rights. In fact, I wasn’t so aware that the issue of women’s rights was play-ing a part. So much of the population is angry, frustrated, even frightened with how they are being governed by an obstructionist Congress and a rapidly changing economy.

Thus my surprise by my own reac-tion on the level of gender equality. I

still remember when Geraldine Fer-raro, who came to the New York Press Association as the keynote speaker when I was its president in the 1980s, declined my husband’s offer of a corsage. He had bought one for her and one for me, but she explained she “couldn’t look too feminine.”

I also recently remembered with a laugh, as I was recalling early history to my 21-year-old grandson, that I had been propositioned while eating alone in a dining room of a hotel before a convention was to be-gin there the next day. “Good girls don’t do that,” I was admonished, for dining solo. Lest I chalk up that encounter to a fluke, it happened again on the train trip home.

The past may be past, but it surely isn’t forgotten. And when I looked around the table last month at the board of directors meeting of the NY Press Association and realized that there were only two other women publishers in a room of 28 board members, I realized that the past isn’t even past. But clearly there is hope.

A triumph for equality: a woman presidential candidate
