"This is an exciting and well deservedrecognition for New Visions School, andI congratulate the staff, students andparents," said Superintendent of SchoolsDr. Eric L. Eversley. "Given the strongupward momentum of student perform-

ance in alleight of ourschools, Iexpect that.others willsoon followthe pathwayNew Visionshas paved."

"We pray in gratitude for the life of ourhero Julian." - Father Robert Coyle,Chaplain, U.S. Merchant MarineAcademy

The full solemnity of both churchand state brought comfort at the funer-al of Marine Sgt. Julian Arechaga, 23,who died in Al Anbar province in Iraqon October 9, while conducting combatoperations.

Marines lined the street outside ofOur Holy Redeemer Church in Freeportwhile the sad strains of bagpipes fromthe Nassau County Pipe and DrumCorps filled the windy autumn skies.

Scores of motorcyclists from thePatriot Guard Riders held Americanflags and snapped to salute as thefuneral cortege moved . down; OceanAvenue to the ;churc'h.; Along the curb,members o'f;! the' " Freeport ? • FifeDepartment,; the American Legion,;res-'idents, and former; members'.of the mil-

itary, some of whom served in Koreaand Vietnam, stood solemnly.

Inside the church, Sgt. JulianArechaga's wife Felecia, father Julian,sister Sheyla, and brother-in-law RussRandazzo, and scores of family andfriends were met by a panoply of cler-gy to lead the casket, which was cov-ered in a white liturgical cloth embroi-dered with a cross to symbolize bothdeath and resurrection. The rich organmusic of the spiritual, "AmazingGrace," filled the church.

The liturgy of the Mass of theResurrection emphasized the lifewhich awaits the Marine hero. But inhomily reflections, Father Coyleacknowledged the present pain andloss. "We need to mourn; we need'tobring our tears to God," he said as hecomforted the family for a' loss that "isa mystery; there is no good answer for

by Jim Golding.-Village trustees faced an unexpected

barrage of complaints from severalirate residents Monday over a story inNewsday that reported a large clusterof sex offenders living in the Freeportarea.

The mayor and trustees had just con-cluded their agenda meeting and wereabout to recess for 20 minutes beforetheir 8 p.m. public hearing on taxexemptions for disabled persons, whenresident Eileen Weaver and about 12others. stood and demanded to beheard.

Mayor William F. Glacken acqui-esced to their demands but, since onlythe first and third Mondays are publiccomment meetings, he said their state-ments would not be considered part ofpublic comment.

The Newsday story about LongIsland neighborhood locations where

clusters of sex offenders live, mostly inlow-income, low-rent areas, reportedthat 21 registered sex offenders residedin "Freeport-Roosevelt," but gave nospecifics as to how many actually livedin Freeport.

Ms. Weaver, visibly agitated, led offwith questions about how the offendershappened to be placed in the communi-ty. "Who is in control, who is responsi-ble?" she exclaimed. "Something hasto be done about it."

Among those present at, the meetingwas Assistant Chief of Police ArthurBurdette, who was asked by DeputyMayor Renaire Frierson-Davis aboutwhat authority the Police Departmenthas in controlling this situation. ChiefBurdette that the department's role isto "monitor sex offenders on a month-ly basis and notify people" of theirpresence, -which is done through theschool district.

Chief Burdette recommended settingup a forum for concerned citizens, todeal with the issue.

,Ms. Frierson-Davis asked that othergovernment officials, such as socialservices representatives and others, beinvited to the forum.

Another resident, Kristin Crosby,who is the mother of a 17-year-olddaughter, asked Mayor Glacken andother board members about their feel-ings on the issue.

Ms. Weaver responded, "H9W canyou sit there and say you didn't know?You are our trustees."

Chief Burdette noted that the policedepartment has been required for sev-eral years to monitor sex offenders, but"as to where they are housed, we neverbrought it to the attention of the.trustees there were clusters. We didn'tpick up on the clusters." .

New Visions Museum School ofExploration and Discovery was hon-ored at Thursday's school board meet-ing for being named a Blue RibbonSchool of Excellence by the U.S.Department of Education because ofits high academic achievements in the2006 No Child Left Behind program.

New Visions is one of only 280schools nationally, 14 statewide andthree on Long Island to receive thedesignation.

"This is a BIG deal," beamedSuperintendent Dr. Eric Eversley. "It'sthe first Freeport school to earn suchan honor."

Dr. Eversley noted that "magnetschools have made extraordinary gainsover the last several years. Our goal isfor others to follow in the path thatNew Visions has paved." New Visionsis Freeport's first magnet school. Totalenrollment is 428;.

To earn Blue Ribbon status, a schoolmust meet or exceed state educationstandards for three consecutive years.For New Visions, 90 percent of fourthgrade students taking the math assess-ment test have met or exceeded thesestandards, and 100 percent have met orexceeded the standards for the ELAtests, Principal Renee Crump told theaudience.

Should there be a law that requires school and library districts to shoplocally first? Probably not. But doing so would be common sense.

HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT...Most ofus have probably spent a lot of time look-ing for lost objects.'We search out everydrawer, every pocket, every compartment,and every nook and cranny. When wehave just about given up hope, and per-haps even after that, our eye suddenlyfalls upon the object on a tabletop ordresser. How could we have missed see-ing something that was hiding in plainsight?

That analogy is particularly appropriatefor some of our candidates- for publicoffice. They seem to be right out there inplain sight, and yet, we can't see or knowthe real "therri" because, like the lostobject whose appearance is somehowcamouflaged from our sight, these people,too, have camouflaged themselves.

It seems incredible that candidates whoare paying hundreds of thousands of dol-lars, indeed millions in some cases, forpersonal publicity are really letting usknow so very little of importance aboutthemselves.

I remember speaking to a local womanwho was in charge of public relations fora large organization. She said that sheviewed her job not simply as publicizingfacts and information, but just as impor-tantly, keeping certain information fromthe public. If she could do that, she saw

her work as a job well done. I expect that,like that publicist, many public officialsview their run for office as much an enter-prise of concealment and deception asthat of imparting information based on thepublic's right to know.

What information of significance do wereally know about most of the candidates?Everyone seems to say that they are fiscalconservatives, that they will cut taxes, andthat they will find millions or even bil-lions of dollars of waste to cut.

And yet, where are the specifics? Whatwould they cut and how would they cutit? And what about the promises for more- more services, more benefits, and com-plete integrity and transparency. Exactlyhow will that be accomplished?

We demand less information from ourpolitical candidates than we would of acar dealer. We are less interested in whomwe are electing than in assessing the latestmovie of the week and whether its plotand main characters would interest us.

Prior to the elections, in all of ourpapers, L&M Publications will be print-ing an insert with information gatheredand prepared by the League of WomenVoters about candidates who will be run-ning for office on November 7. We urgeyou to read it because it will probably beone of the only places you will be able to

Leave footprints, not garbageBy Joan Delaney

Long Islanders are leaving more thanfootprints behind themselves as theirlegacy. They are leaving tons and tons ofgarbage and resisting many of theefforts to dispose of that garbage, andjust,as importantly, to turn that garbageinto usable energy.

At the Baldwin Chamber ofCommerce meeting on October 17,environmental scientist and certifiedecologist John G. Waggenschmidt, whois the vice president of business devel-opment at Covanta;Energy Corporation,spoke to members. Covanta, formerlyAmerican Re-Fuel, is the recycling plantthat is located off the MeadowbrookParkway near Roosevelt Field.

Introduced by B6b Noble of Sanitary

District Number Two, Mr.Waggenschmidt spoke of the three mainreasons for recycling. They are globalwarming, energy use, and the need tomanage the disposal of solid waste. Notthe most exciting topics, their implica-tions are,.-however, important |or thepresent' generation, and perhaps moresignificantly, for generations to come.

While global warming is still techni-cally a scientific theory, the statisticswhich are moving this theory to the cat-egory of proof seem indisputable.Satellite based models of changes inglobal temperature, along with numer-ous other scientific testings of core sam-ples from the earth, show a world inwhich water tables are rising as globaltemperatures rise.

actually find objective information aboutthe candidates and certainly the only placewhere the responses of the candidates willallow you an "apples to apples" compari-son.

This year, there are very few candidates.for whom I am voting with a resounding"Yes" vote. In some instances I will notpull the lever at all, believing that abstain-ing from voting on a particular line is thebest compromise I can manage.

Most especially, I will find it hard tovote on the judicial line, both for incum-bent judges whose opinions and court-room behavior are not easily known to thegeneral public and certainly for chal-lengers about whom most of us knowabsolutely nothing.

For years, I have concurred with thosewho wish to see partisanship removedfrom the judiciary through a .system ofvetting by a bi-partisan committeewhich recommends a number of quali-fied candidates. The highest level elect-ed official overseeing a particular juris-diction would then only be able to selecthis appointees from that recommendedlist.

In that way, there is an accountableelected official, and not simply a back-room party official, making an informeddecision based on the recommendations ofa qualified bi-partisan committee. Voterscould then hold that elected officialaccountable for that appointment as part oftheir own decision-making when that offi-cial subsequently runs for office.

We urge everyone to read the upcominginsert and to think about those issueswhich are important to you as a voter.What national issues matter to you - thewar, national security, immigration, theeconomy, budget priorities? Think ofthem before casting your ballot for United

States Senator and member of Congressand ask yourself which candidate is clear-ly committed to supporting your posi-tions?

Which issues are important to you:state-wide taxes, growing state debt,affordable housing, access to health care,the death penalty, educational funding,business development, or the dysfunctionin Albany? Which candidate has the qual-ifications and has shown, from pastactions, that he or she can actually get thejob done and not simply talk a big talk andgarner headlines?

Which local candidates for state assem-bly and state senate are best able to repre-sent you and will be willing to bring localissues and concerns to the attention ofother state legislators for action. Whichcandidates will work to become an influ-ence and not simply function as a rubberstamp? '

It has been said that it is almost impos-sible to vote out 'an incumbent, a realitythat seems almost counter-intuitive sincethey have a greater paper trail. As voters,

-we sho.uld ask ourselves if incumbentswho have served for years have delivered,and if not, why would we expect them tobe different in the future.• Challengers must explain how they

.would function in the real world of elect-ed office. We must assess if their educa-tion and experience make them capable ofdoing more than simply promising or crit-icizing.

A recent speaker at Baldwin's Chamberof Commerce meeting said, "Decisionsare made by a smaller group of peoplethan the general population." OnNovember 7, we will have the opportuni-ty to decide who that small group of peo-ple will be who will be making our deci-sions for us.

Farewell to Julian Arechagafrom page 1

the people of faith, and Americans."Repeating the words of the' gospel pas-

sage which described the' raising ofLazarus, Father Coyle said of Julian,"Untie him arid let him go; His soul iswith God."' . . ' ; ' . ;

The priest then read of the lyrics of aMarine recruit song which speaks of aheaven where soldiers and sailors willarrive to "find the streets of heaven

" guarded by the United States Mannes,'^'Personalizing, the joy of the afterlife,

he described the reunion of Julian withhis mother, Mirna, who died the past Juneand said, "Let him share the love of hismother again." - . „ - „ . , « . ,••,;.,.•

At the conclusion of the Mass, Julian'ssister, who helped raise him, and Julian'swife, also a Marine, approached the sane-.tuary. Held closely by her sister-in law,and reading softly, Felecia Arechagaspoke of "love's beautiful memorieswhich outlast the pain of grief." She saidthat Julian would ."be.forever in .our .hearts, forever missed, and ever in ourhearts." '.-.; \ '.'

As the mass concluded, Father Coylewalked to the side of the sanctuary before

\a display of pictures of the young Marine^.He spoke of the young soldier "who was

" willing to put it all on the line,'.' and askedthe congregation to express its gratitude.

• Applause rang out, penetrating the Hght-;ftlled stained-glass wifidows. ,• Then six pallbe,arers,- Marines and.civilians, guided; the" casket. down me,center aisle of the.churcn, stopping at its

"entrance. There, the liturgical white.cloth, a symbol of faith, was removedand replaced with the bright colors of theAmerican flag, a symbol- "of^.Sgtl

Arechaga's love of country.Accompanied by the resounding organmusic, friends and family sang, "LetThere Be Peace on Earth," the hymn

• based on; the Prayer of St. Francis ofAssisi which notes, "With God as ourFather, brothers all are we; Let me walkwith my brother, in perfect harmony."

Among those paying their respects wasBaldwin Chamber of Commerce directorMichael Rosenstock, whose son

.^Douglas, .also ,a.Marine, is a first lieu-tenant in training as a fighter pilot atCherry Point, North Carolina. "Douglaswill complete his training in four months.I'm not unmindful of that standing here."

f .John. "Johnny B" Mascia, New York" State captain of the Patriot Guard Riders,

along with New England RegionalCaptain Scott Deal, spoke of motorcy-clists from all walks of life - some formermilitary, some civilian and some activemilitary - who have pledged to attend thefunerals of the military who have died."There are 60,000 of us in the UnitedStates and we come to show pur respect."

Sgt. Archega was buried at GreenfieldCemetery, a town cemetery, near hismother, as were his wishes.'rather than in

'. • a military cemetery. Michael Deery, com-munications director for the Town ofHempstead, was present with assistantsand noted that Supervisor Kate Murrayhad attended wake services and hadarranged for town support'to facilitatearrangements.-Memorial services at the

caused by increased fossil fuel emis-sions and urbanization have resulted inrises in sea level projections whichcould drastically impact areas like LongIsland.

Mr. Waffenschmidt believes thateventually "the market will force us toshift from fossil fuels" but that processhas been difficult. He wishes that moreof the needed long-term solutions wouldbe based on science and not simply onpolitical pressure and expediency.

Although the Kyoto Accord of 1990calls for drastic cut-backs, he believesthat economic pressures will result insome sort of compipmise. Meanwhile,the use and study of renewable energy,rather than a reliance on fossil fuels, goon.

A great part of the solution to reduc-ing dependence on fossil fuels centerson proper waste management. Mr.Waffenschmidt speaks of our only twooptions: we can haul solid waste away ata significant cost and one which contin-ually escalates or we can combust solidwaste to energy at local facilities.

Presently, there are four main waste -to-energy facilities on Long Islandwhich Mr. Waffenschidt notes are clean,reduce greenhouse gasses and offset fuelconsumption. The closest distance totransport solid waste is 281 miles to alandfill in Pennsylvania.

In contrast, the combusting of solidwaste lowers costs and has the positiveenvironmental impact of loweringgreenhouse gasses. Waste-to-Energyfacilities have the benefit of stabilizingcosts, providing' self-sufficiency, and

'providing' energy which' is -renewable,

replenishable, and sustainable.The issue, however, is that most com-

munities do not want such facilities intheir area. Mr. Waffenschmidt stressed thathost communities must be compensatedfor having a commercial facility in theirmidst, even though these facilities are nota human health or environmental risk. Hebelieves that eventually increasing energycosts will force the building of more plantsand will also change how we view thefuels necessary for transportation.

He said, "If you don't solve trans-portation, you're nowhere" He believeshybrid, "plug-in" automobiles usingbio-diesel fuels will be the vehicles ofthe future, and he speaks of on-goingresearch by private industry to findthose bio-fuels which can translate intowidespread use.

He also thinks that when it comes toelectricity, differentiated pricing based onthe hours when energy is used (as is donein New York City) will come to LongIsland. He speaks of actions that LongIslanders can take now, on their own, cit-ing his own use of his pool's filter in theevening rather than in the daytime.

"Presently, none of these changes arebeing incentivized," and he stressed thatvarious insulation renovations to saveenergy as well as the use of solar panelsshould all be offered to residentsthrough the use of financial incentives.

Ginny Foley, co-owner with her hus-band of Sonny's Canal House restaurant,asked about the use of cooking oil."First they paid us for taking it away;then they took it away "at no cost; thenthey charged us to take it away."

Mr. Waffenschmidt noted that the< .study of "FOGS" (Fats, oils and greases)

is important in trying to discover alter-

nate fuels for vehicles as is the study ofthe Brazilian versus the American ver-sion of ethanol. "It will be discovered byprivate industry before government," hepredicted, noting that everyone in theprivate sector is looking for viable alter-nate energy sources.

He sees the United States as the need-ed leader in all these areas, saying"Once the United States responds, therest of the world will follow." As both ascientist and a business developer, how-ever, he knows that ultimately, "In theend, the market always rules."

Speaking of how all of this change willcome about and what the role of the pub-lic should be, Mr. Waffenschmidt spokeas a realist, aware of the political realities."Decisions are made by a small group ofpeople, not the general population."

• ••In specific Chamber business, Ms. Foleynoted that the Chamber will be havinganother formal meeting with TheodoreTheofan, the Town of Hempstead'scommissioner of development and plan-ning relative to the Grand Avenue revi-talization project. She acknowledgedthat "No one thinks anything is happen-ing until the buildings come down," butstressed that the project "is movingalong." . . .

Relative to the Waldbaums expansionon Atlantic Avenue, she said that shebelieved that phone calls by theChamber to the A&P headquarters haveprompted a stepped-up meeting betweenthe landlord and store representatives towork out proposals and differences ofopinion.

The Holiday Celebration will take placeat the LIRR station on Sunday, December3. Various businesspeople are sponsoringaspects of the event, with DeliciousMoments Caterers providing hot choco-late and cider. The community menorahwill be set up close to the actual beginningof Chanukah. Referring to vandalism inprevious years, Ms. Foley noted, "We willput it up and it will stay up and we will notlet people ruin our holidays."

The IStenzel family, long-timeBaldwinites, are again refurbishing theChristmas creche, noting that last year,one of the figures was stolen.

New Visions Principal Renee Crumpand teacher Aneesah Abdus-Shakurhave been invited to Washington D.C.on November 9 and 10, where theywill accept the award for New Visionsand join in other activities with repre-sentatives from 281 schools being sim-ilarly recognized nationwide.

"My teachers and support staff trulydeserve so much credit," said Ms.Crump. "Long before talk of a blueribbon, they demonstrated passion andpersistence, excellence in their craftand consummate professionalism.They did it for the purest and noblestof reasons - they love and believe inFreeport's children."

New York State nominated NewVisions for the Blue Ribbon award,which honors schools in which stu-dents score with the top 10% on stateassessments, or where at least 40% ofstudents from disadvantaged back-grounds dramatically improve theirperformance on state tests.

New Visions has accomplished both:for the past three years, the school'sperformance in English language artsand mathematics has consistentlyshown growth, and the majority ofNew Visions' second-language learn-ers score at the advanced and profi-cient levels.

Last February, nominees were invit-ed to submit a detailed application tothe U.S. Department of Education,describing each curriculum area andhow students are engaged with contentbased on high academic standards.

With the help of Dr. Eversley,Assistant Superintendent RobertHarris, Magnet Schools and GrantsDirector Carolyn Thompson, Directorof Second Languages Sue Greca andLanguage Arts and Math CoordinatorsPamela Maltese and Nancy Schempp,Crump submitted demographic andtest-result data, a summary and historyof the school, and information aboutstaff development. She also explainedNew Visions' philosophy of learningand its museum theme.

In Washington, New Visions will beawarded a plaque, and a "Blue RibbonSchool" banner for outside display.Crump and Abdus-Shakur will attendmeetings and seminars with othernationally recognized school princi-pals and teachers.

audience that he had spoken with theNewsday reporter who wrote the storyto complain that "his report wasn'tfair" because it gave the impression ofFreeport and Roosevelt being a singlecommunity and it did not narrow downwhether these sex offenders are mainlyin Freeport or Roosevelt.

Mayor Glacken promised to takeaction to address the residents' fears,but said it would take time.

"There's no magic solution," said

Mayor Glacken. "This is a nationalproblem. We will deal with this veryseriously. You can't just snap your fin-gers and make people disappear. Thelaw requires careful monitoring andthat the public is informed."

He continued, "It's not somethingthat can be resolved in an hour or two.It will take a great deal of .time. Wewill do what we can within the law tosolve the problem."

The major said the proposed forumwould be announced through TheLeader and online on the village web-site.

ClarificationIt has come to our attention that

some wording in the report on theOctober 4 Freeport Board of Educationmeeting that appeared in the October12 issue of The Leader needs a note ofclarification. In coverage of safetymeasures in place in the Freeportschools, the article refers to "recenttragic events that have happened insome schools." The Leader reassuresour readers that this does not refer toFreeport schools, but to the incidents inschools in several other states that havereceived national media coveragerecently.
