This course, together with CSC 221, forms an introduction to problem-solving and programming. Building upon CSC 221, this course focuses on the design and analysis of larger, more complex programs. The process of breaking down a complex problem into manageable pieces and building a working system will be stressed throughout. Since part of this process is choosing the appropriate algorithm to solve the problem at hand, we will investigate the design and analysis of some standard and useful algorithms. Similarly, we will consider various ways of structuring and transforming information so as to make it efficiently accessible and manageable.
Specific topics covered in the course will include: GUI programming and data structures (e.g., vectors, pointers, classes), defining and using abstract data types (e.g., lists, stacks, queues), static vs. dynamic implementations of data structures, and recursion as an alternative to iteration. The structures and concepts covered in this class will be a starting point for further development in subsequent computer science courses.
The specific goals of this course are:
- To know and be able to use basic programming tools for object-oriented problem solving (e.g., classes, encapsulation, data hiding, and templates).
- To appreciate the role of algorithms and data structures in problem solving and software design, recognizing that a given problem might be solved with a variety of algorithms and structures (e.g., object-oriented design, searching and sorting, recursion, stacks, queues, and linked lists).
- To be able to design and implement a program to model a real-world system, and subsequently analyze its behavior.
- To develop programming skills that can serve as a foundation for further study in computer science.
Course Organization:
Required Work
Learning to program requires a consistent time commitment, as each new concept and programming technique builds on those that came before. There will be four quizzes and six programs. There will also be one midterm and one final. To allow for unavoidable absences, the lowest quiz grade will be dropped. Periodically, there will be in-class exercises that will be collected and graded.
To demonstrate problem solving and programming skills, students will complete 5-6 programs throughout the semester. Each assignment will involve the design and implementation of a Java program, and may also include a written component in which the behavior of the program is analyzed. Late assignments will be accepted up to 14 days after their due date, with a 1pt a day penalty for the first week, and a 2pt a day penalty for the second week.
Grades based on | % |
Four quizzes | 20 % |
In class projects | 10 % |
Five-six programming assignments | 30 % |
Midterm 75-minute tests | 20 % |
One 100-minute final exam | 20 % |
Grading | |
Depending on class performance, some shifting of grades (in an upward direction only) may occur as final letter grades are assigned.
Regular attendance is expected of all students. If you must miss class for a legitimate reason, it is your responsibility to make up missed work. Quizzes and assignments will not be rescheduled except in extreme circumstances.
Policy on Collaboration
In addition to the college policy on cheating and plagiarism as spelled out in the Student Handbook the following guidelines hold for this course.- All quizzes and tests are closed book, with no collaboration between students allowed.
- Programming assignments allow only limited collaboration. You may ask for debugging help from your peers, but at no time should another student assist in the design or coding of your program. The design and implementation of your program should be entirely your own work!
Violations of the above collaboration will be dealt with severely, with possible outcomes including failure in the course and expulsion from the university. In the case of programming assignments, you are encouraged to start early so that there is time to seek help from the instructor as the need arises.

to an erstwhile column. And to all those who are too old to blog and too
young to not express your feelings, this is a place where you too can
expound. I wrote a column for the Moriches Bay Tide for several years and
for Dan's Papers for one. But that was in the early 90's. I loved having a
column and began to hone it to a nice, neat 400 words or so. But it has been
awhile and I beg for compassion.
I am a retired English teacher, former Brookhaven Youth Orchestra Director
and a constant yarn jockey. But, here comes the disclaimer, I'm not one of
"those English teachers" who sniff and toss their heads at poor grammar and
really bad spelling. I taught junior high English which has more to do with
hormones than homophones. I often make mistakes. Oh, I have a few pet peeves
but I do not write like Faulkner. Think Erma Bombeck. If you find a glaring
error, typo or offensive philosophy, send an email to Bellport.com. I will,
in turn, give you extra credit on your next book report as I did with my 8th
graders, lo those many years ago.
However, you will not find a sentence in this column containing the
following phrases:
I could care less…..If you could care less then why don't you? I couldn't
care less is correct.
Enthuse …. is not a verb. I'm so enthused is incorrect. You can be
enthusiastic but you can't enthuse anything, including a watermelon with
Less/fewer ….John has fewer quarters than Mary, therefore he has less money.
TV sports announcers are the worst when they compare stats. For all those
who are still reading, I'll go into apostrophes next time.
With all that said, I'm thrilled to be writing a column again. And I hope,
once in a while, you'll enjoy it too. Thank you.

It was the center of town even before it was Wallens. It was a theatre where
vaudeville acts came to perform. For the forty years I have lived in the
area, it was the place to meet friends and shop.
When THE Mr. Wallen walked the aisles he carefully surveyed all around him.
He had a presence about him that, to tell the truth, intimidated me and I
don't think I was alone in that.
I remember when he came to the register to talk to me, some 30 odd years ago
and told me that my last check had bounced. I was mortified especially since
I had overdraft checking. The bank accepted the responsibility and I
demanded a letter totally exonerating me and apologizing to Mr. Wallen.
Armed with the letter, mounds of cash and a humble attitude I straightened
the whole thing out that day. Mr. Wallen and I got along famously after
that, though I still treated him quite reverently. He would tell me stories
about the old days and I loved to hear them.
One day he told me how he climbed a ladder many times over to rescue
children from the high school fire in 1963. Mr. Wallen had to coax one
frightened girl to trust him to carry her to safety and he remembered how
tightly she held onto him. Someone, unwittingly, had flicked a still lit
cigarette into the backstage area of the auditorium. That flicker found
costumes and props and flames grew into the worse school fire in Long Island
history. Mr. Wallen repeated slowly as to underscore the import - "No child
died that day. There were a few with burns but we got them all out."
The look in his eye and the manner in which he spoke told me how this event
shaped and reshaped many a life in this community. Everyone within 50 miles
knew about the fire and now so did I. When THE Mr. Wallen grew ill and could
no longer be in the store, he was missed. More than a little history died
when he did. I really liked the picture they put up of him in the store. His
amazing face still surveys all around him.
That was many years ago. In the years that followed I would run into Wallens
sometimes twice a day. In the years I worked at the Sou'wester Bookshop I
would get boxes of Earl Grey tea and fresh milk for Pat and the staff and
pick up fresh meat and produce for my dinner.
I saw Glenn Close in the store once and I knew others who saw one or another
of the celebrities that have passed through Bellport at one time or another.
But it was not the famous that made Wallens special, it was the regulars. I
would invariably meet one of my son's teachers, any amount of friends and
acquaintances and pause to talk. At any time you would see people hugging,
making friendly inquiries about their children, pets, gardens, and churches-
all while placing items you could only find in Wallens into their carts.
If you needed something special or merely wanted it - it was gotten for you.
The butchers were so helpful and would make up special orders. I wanted
sausage meat and because Wallens made its own sausage they would make it up
for me without the casing. Chuck, sirloin or round were freshly ground.
Fresh holiday turkeys. There never was any worry when you bought meat from
Wallens. It was the best.
There is no Wallens anymore. What we did not know all these years is that it
was hard, nearly impossible, to continue to be what Wallens is. While we
shopped and visited and chatted over parsnips we were oblivious to the
plight of a small market. There are only so many shelves. How can a store
compete with Costco, Stop and Shop and Pathmark? It belonged to a gentler
time when neighborhoods sustained their local businesses.
Bob and Bob Wallen Jr. are, to use a term from the past, the salt of the
earth. I cannot tell you the hours, and I mean hours, I spent talking
baseball with these two men. I would stop the flow of traffic with my cart
and we would share the pain of being Mets fans. Father and son had different
ideas about the team and I often agreed with them both. I will really miss
those talks. It was hard for them to speak in the last days. The strain was
evident on their faces. I know how that is too because my father closed a
business after 53 years. Wallens was such a part of their day to day
existence. What do they do now?
I will miss everyone who ever worked in the store. Once Camille Bloom ran
outside after me because they found the zucchini I needed. She practically
ran across the street waving a package of zucchini. That only happens in
time warps. How many students manned those cash registers over the years
-exceptional kids, polite, helpful and friendly. When Eric Lunde told me
about looking forward to marching with the Brookhaven Fire Department at the
Memorial Day Parade, I told him I'll be watching. Eric's head nodded in
recognition as I hollered at him as he marched. Sometimes I think Andy Hardy
must live in our neighborhood. I liked talking to Cortney Mancusi and
Jessica Ferraro too. It always pleased me how these young people talked to
us and not to each other as if we were invisible. I will miss them. But
things change. I was once told that nothing is really gone if the person or
thing stills lives in memory. With that in mind Wallens will be alive for a
very long time.
Note: I referred to Wallen's Market as Wallens sans apostrophe. I called it
Wallens and to me that was the entity. So forgive my conceit and allow my
poetic license.
Thank you.

A note from Peter Satterley:
I was probably an infant when my Mom first brought me into Wallen's Market.
At age 14, Mike Wallen asked my Mom if I, [Peter] wanted a job there. When
she came home from shopping and told me, I jumped on my bicycle and went to
talk to Mike. He hired me and I've been there ever since. Mike was very good
to me and a tremendous influence on my life. I learned so much from him, Bob
Edwards and so many other long-timers having worked with them so many years.
I have seen many changes over the 43 years I have been employed there. I
have worked with so many wonderful people. Some for a short time and some
for a long time along with so many high school / college kids over the
years. Not to mention, all the wonderful customers.
I will miss Wallen's because it has felt like my home away from home. But
most of all, I will miss all my Wallen's family; co-workers, vendors, and
all the wonderful people I have met over the years.
Many have asked me what I will do next? I don't know what the future holds,
but I know WHO holds the future so I will put my trust in God to lead me to
what is next.
Thanks for the memories,
Peter Satterley
This note was displayed in and out of the store:
We would like to Thank EVERY customer who has passed through our doors.
Customers are a privilege, NOT a right, and you all had as much to do with
making Wallen's Market the place it was as we did.
Again…. THANK YOU ALL !
Father and son wanted to mention the following members of the Wallen Market
Bob Edwards

Jim Johnson
Jim Munro
Fred DiCrescento
Hella Reilly
Pam Hartman
Lisa Scordamaglia

A note left on Wallen's window:
There was a death in Bellport yesterday, January 28. Wallen's IGA grocery store closed its doors forever, marking (as it says in the firmest of clichés) the end of an era.
But what an era! For decades Wallen's was the place where you picked up your comestibles, greeted your neighbors, commented on the weather, and opined on our putative political leaders.
Shoppers ranged from Isabella Rossellini (she of the rusted bicycle) to Jack
and Dottie Ellsworth, whose desperately overflowing cart made you fear that
Armageddon was surely at hand. Trust me, Norman Rockwell would have been
right at home here recording the zeitgeist.
One typical incident to illustrate what we'll miss: last week my wife asked
the butcher if he would grind a particular piece of meat twice for her.
"gladly," he chuckled, "although I always grind it three times." Try that
request at one of your big box stores.
All day yesterday, just about everybody managed to stop in and say goodbye. It was said, so sad. It made me want to cry.
So I did.

Thank you for including Angela Giannotti's column
henceforth in Bellport.com. Her piece on Wallen's is literate, honest,
thoughtful and touching. And she cares about the English language!
I am a relative newcomer to Bellport, since I started visiting in 1972, just
40 years ago, and have owned a home there only since 1990. These days I
spend most of the year in Egypt. I did not have the same deep feeling of
connection to Wallen's that many longtime, full-time residents of the
village developed over the years, but Angela's essay certainly served to
deepen my feelings of connection to Bellport.
Now, about that apostrophe...

I'm annoyed. I don't like some of the "conveniences" that
are being forced upon me. The one that I take most offense to is the Drug
Store. (The "Drug Store" does anyone call it that any more? I never really
thought about it before. Now we simply say Walgreen's, CVS or the pharmacy
at some super supermarket. When we hear so much about drugs, whether it's
cocaine, steroids or crystal meth, referring to the place we get our
prescriptions as the "Drug Store" seems very old-fashioned.)
But for my purposes I will use "Drug Store" as to not offend CVS. (Yes, I
realize I did that.) I get phone calls from them, phone calls that tell me
that my prescription needs renewal. I take offense to this because I know
when I need to renew a prescription. I am not addled. Yes, I know that this
is a service that is meant to be a help to me. Don't help me. I don't want
to be on automatic renewal either. I do appreciate that "the drug store"
calls the doctor to renew a prescription when needed. But when I'm about to
go on a trip and need 14 pills and the bottle only has 9 left, I don't want
to hear the disembodied voice say that I have too many pills left for them
to give me more. You don't know me. Why have you insinuated yourself into my
life? I never asked you in. Butt out. It is at these times that I miss Barry
who was the real pharmacist at the real drug store. His place of business is
now occupied by Rosie's Revolution which is a pretty neat place. Barry would
understand all the unique circumstances and help you out in a kind,
unobtrusive, way. I miss Barry.
With every advance in technology we have to pay a price. Sometimes I just
don't want to. When I go to the rest room I want to determine the
appropriate time to flush. Often the mechanism is not in sync with my needs.
It annoys me. The sink dispenses water when it sees fit. The paper towels
cascade down when it senses my dripping hands. At first I was amused by it
all. Now, I'm annoyed. If they are determined to anticipate my every need
then add: filling the soap dispenser to the list and taking out the
overflowing trash. I am not fond of the having a bathroom matron either. I
kept wishing that I could find her a better job.
Some things I don't mind. I prefer EZ Pass to throwing coins. I like paying
at the pump and enjoy filling the gas tank in my car. I play with the
numbers sometimes to see if I can get exactly $30.00 worth. I enjoy the ease
of zipping my debit card through those machines in the supermarkets and
pushing buttons, even though the number of steps often differs. Then there
are those little people that show up on the bottom of my TV screen like
scary gremlins – but that's another story.
Does anyone ever reach an age that abdicates the right to do things for
ourselves? It is a testament to our abilities to be able to fend for
ourselves. It took too long to get to that place of competence to give it up
so easily. However, I must realize that I am naïve. Most of these practices
are in place to help make or save money for businesses or government. I
still hate it.

What a welcomed surprise to read your articles. You're
refreshing, thought provoking and an inspiration to our youth. I remember
when Greg was in my 5th grade class at Hampton Ave years ago and having your
support and expertise when teaching writing. You had come in numerous times
demonstrating writing and verbal techniques and the class was always excited
when they knew you were coming in. Seems to me you are still at it,
inspiring children and young adults. Keep up the great work.

Ms. Giannotti: As a former english teacher, how do
feel about two very popular and frequently used items which really turn me
off. First, "No problem" used in place of a plain old fashion "Thank you".
Giving something, doing something, or acknowledging something does not
constitute a problem in any way, shape or form. Secondly, "awesome" to me
indicated a unique experience, sight to behold or anything that would make
you recoil sometimes in horror or surprise. What happened to "great,
marvelous, wonderful, etc.

Dear Angela,
I feel the same way about the Drug Store vs. CVS pharmacy...the automatic
refill calls and the denial of more pills to hold you over on your trip is
aggravating. However, I think you are missing the great thing about the
technology of automatic flush and hand towel dispenser. I really like these
because I don't have to touch the handle and also because there many people
who don't take the time to flush...what is more awful than going into a
stall and finding that someone was too rude to take the time to flush? Ugh.
The automatic flush takes care of that. Also, I like not having to touch the
button or handle to get paper towel to dry my hands. Call me a germophobe,
but in my mind these are great things.
Now, to the really important observation. I have known you a long time and I
think that Rich and Gregg have finally rubbed off on you. Please don't let
this happen! You have caught "rain-cloud" itis!!

Hi Angela,

The Red Barn is no more. That is a very sad statement for anyone who frequented the Brookhaven landmark that graced Beaver Dam Road for over a hundred years. The barn, among other things, was the home of the Pumpkin Patch Players, a theatre group of neighbor kids who studied, rehearsed and performed plays, music and improvisations.
My son Gregg was one of those kids and so were so many of
his friends and neighbors – Katie, Andrew, Eric, Natalie, Matt, April,
Justin... I remember this group well - all born in the early 80's. Debbie
Mayo, their mentor, would gather them together and gently fashion a
marvelous experience for actor and audience alike. Debbie is an actor and
professor at the Stony Brook University Drama department and lives across
the street from the barn. The Pumpkin Patch Players were all but perfect.
The barn's stage was fashioned from wood and curtains that seemed to be from
earlier times. The surroundings were more 50's than 90's. Seeing a
performance was like being in a Disney movie, only better, much better.
Everyone who sat on the boxes and makeshift chairs knew how special it was
and how lucky our kids were to be part of magical Brookhaven Hamlet lore.
And, like lots of joys in Brookhaven Hamlet, the experience was thanks to
Betty Puleston. It was her barn after all. Betty had the kids perform every
year at her birthday party at her house, a short walk from the barn. She
would rock with laughter and her smiles would soften all the lines on her
face. Betty loved the magic.
The first pictures of the South Country String Band were taken in front of
the Red Barn. The band was an erstwhile group of musicians that included
John DiNaro, Rich Fuller, me, my husband Rich and our son Gregg*. Gregg was
about 12. We later performed there for a HOG fundraiser and joined our
neighbors as the Hamlet Organic Garden was planted in the fields behind the
wooden structure.
I've marveled for the 39 years I've lived in the Hamlet that a place like
the barn existed. Not just the structure but all that it housed including
Looms for weavers and pottery equipment. There were also priceless Puleston
family mementoes. But the barn is no more. We really must remember how lucky
we were to have had it. It was out of another time but we were able to
partake of those simple times because it existed. Instead of Mickey Rooney
and Judy Garland it was our kids who put on a show. The same kids who are
drama teachers, musicians, composers, sports talk radio hosts**and fine
adults. It was one of the purest joys of those summers. Thanks Betty. Thanks
Debbie. Thanks kids. Their memories and ours are now what's left of the Red
* Shameless Plug : These musicians and many others still can be heard at the
Acoustic Jam on alternate Fridays at the Community Center in Bellport.
** Shameless Parental Pride - Gregg is now a sports talk radio host.

"Some Ramblings, One Remembrance"
Because I have a new credit card, I thought I had to notify EZ Pass. Luckily
I had just gotten a statement from them and I called. Think Bob Newhart.
Hi. I want to change the credit card on my EZ PASS account. I have my
account number. My telephone number? OK. What do you mean, how could it be
wrong, I've had that telephone number for 38 years? The area code? Oh. It
used to be 516 but it's been 631 for maybe 10 years now.
OK. The cars on the account? No, I don't have that car anymore. Well, OK, I
have the same brand and model but I drive a 2005 now not a 2001. No, I don't
remember the license number of the 2001. No, we have new plates on all the
cars. The other two cars have not changed except for the license plates.
Listen, don't you need my mother's maiden name? That hasn't changed. It's G
R… Oh, you don't have that. OK.
Well I'm not asking you for money, I'm giving you another card to take MY
money. Can't you just believe me? OK. Well, OK. Here are all the cars and
their plate numbers. Well, only one has numbers; the other two have letters.
No, I don't own that car anymore….
Moral: Don't call EZ Pass. Let EZ Pass call you when your credit card no
longer works.
I love National Public Radio. I enjoy Car Talk, Whaddaknow?, A
Prairie Home Companion, All Things Considered and
Morning Edition, among others. I do my part at pledge time.
But I have such a hard time dealing with the pledge drives. It's like
listening to commercial radio not WQXR but WALK. In an attempt to find out
why WALK's Walky Bear was at Brookhaven Hospital last week I tuned to WALK
and heard 12 minutes of commercials. It was unbearable. That's one of the
best reasons to listen to National Public Radio.
However, there are the pledge drives. I am sensitive to such things, having
been involved with non-profit organizations. I'm glad that I no longer have
to worry about keeping an organization alive considering how terrible the
economy is currently. But I'm still not a big fan of those begging sessions.
I really feel for those people. So I thought that it would be great if there
were a way to have the pledge drive end as soon as you make your pledge.
Wouldn't it be nice that once you call in your donation, regular programming
would resume on your radio or television set. I think that pledges would
We are all creatures of habit and if we enjoy programs on Public Radio or
Television we don't want anything to interrupt it. If we knew that Garrison
Keillor would be able to finish one of his great tales of Lake Wobegon as
soon as we make our donation, wouldn't we head for the phone or computer?
I'd much rather have that option than an umbrella or a coffee cup. Recently
WSHU did a one day pledge drive because we, as listeners, complained of
"concerto interruptus"? Unfortunately, the station did not make their goal
so there will be another pledge day soon. However, if there were alternate
(non-pledge) programming for those who made their donation, the money would
be piling in.
Think about it. Somewhere in the world of cyberspace there must be someone,
probably a 10 year old, who could figure out how to make this happen. Maybe
that little girl who makes those slide shows for that Microsoft 7 ad, or one
of those stock trading babies? Someone can do this. Someone please try,
quickly before the Peter, Paul and Mary retrospective on Channel 13. I'll be
the first to pledge.
A Remembrance:
I recently wrote a column about groups. It showed how important the
individual becomes to the whole. One of the groups was a Tuesday morning
compilation of all sorts. Many of these individuals met nearly every day and
had many no-holds-barred conversations. It was so stimulating that I could
not help but think that it rivaled those at the Algonquin Hotel with the
Marx Brothers and Benchley. By that reference if nothing else, you can tell
that we are of a certain age. We may struggle with Tweeting but can still
finish the New York Times crossword puzzle, in ink.
One of us has left us and we don't like it one bit. Fletcher Bedell died on
September 16th. He and his family have been part of Bellport FOREVER. It
didn't matter how long you knew Fletcher to appreciate his good humor,
intellect and love of life. Even when he made you the recipient of his
pranks, you loved him for it. Fletcher shared his struggles with cancer in a
way that you never believed it would get the better of him. He was like John
Wayne only with a better smile and a glint in his eye that rivaled no other.
He would travel on his motorcycle down to Florida or cross country with
Stella, bringing back tales of adventure. He loved history. Fletcher was
descended from the Huguenots, we learned one morning which opened up another
lively discussion. There are many of our little group and many in Bellport
that have shared stories about Fletcher Bedell. May we always remember the
laughter. Thanks Fletch.

Last week my pocketbook was taken. It was hard to imagine
it happening because I was at a funeral. However, I could not believe
otherwise because my bag was not under the votive candles at the church
where I put it. It was nowhere to be found.
The deacon even asked the bereaved at the cemetery if anyone had picked up a
purse in the church by mistake. I was grateful he asked, but I also felt
terrible. What a thing to ask the family gathering as they said their last
goodbyes. The loss of my wallet was annoying but not horrible.
Unfortunately, my car keys were in the side pocket. Friends drove me home to
get my spare keys and my husband drove me back to the church. The church
secretary scoured the grounds as I drove around the village and checked
bushes and trash cans. Nothing. It was gone.
While I was already planning my phone calls to credit card companies, my
husband, in his quiet yet emphatic manner, explained how the loss of my keys
was far worse than replacing the plastic. The car keys opened not only my
car, but with a push of a button, the garage entrance to my house. My house,
all its contents and the people in it, were now in real danger. I had even
provided the getaway car. Recent tragedy in Bellport only served to
emphasize this threat. We had to call the police and the officer was very
sympathetic. It was hard to say that the bag was taken at a funeral mass. It
was still so difficult to fathom. He explained that detectives would be
calling because a felony was committed.
It was true that the harder the times, the greater the risks. We could no
longer leave the Volvo in its usual place in the driveway. So we secured the
car out of sight, changed the front door lock, and checked the locks on the
downstairs windows. Even house alarms did not quell our fears.
We had no choice. We must replace all the locks in the car. I called Volvo,
knowing full well that it wasn't going to be cheap. It cost $400 to replace
a transmitter key not too long ago. I thought I was ready for the hit, but
when the service manager came back with a total of $1600 for the entire job,
I groaned. Impossible ! No, labor alone is $700 because they have to
dismantle the steering column. A constantly rattling steering wheel was in
my future, I just knew it. But, there was no alternative. The dealership was
able to get the parts in a day and we had an appointment for late Friday
morning. Bravo to Volvo!
There was still much to do and I was so angry with myself. If only I were
organized and had all the numbers at hand. Alas, I was not. Nevertheless,
the minutia of driving to the Motor Vehicle Bureau without a license to get
a replacement was better than I thought. There was no replacement fee, which
frankly, surprised me. I did keep my old photo because it was one of the
three in my life that I did not mind. (My column photo isn't one of the
remaining two, if you were wondering.) I was out in less than a half hour
with a temporary license.
I then remembered that I would often carry a blank check, in case I couldn't
use the debit card. So I opened a new account and notified my direct deposit
agencies. Then slowly, one by one, the automatic payments on my debit card
came to mind - E Z Pass, gym memberships, Netflix. But, it's almost useless
to notify them until I have the new card. After 5 working days, I received a
debit card, as promised. However, they also informed me that my new pin
number would take an additional 3 to 5 days. I use my debit card constantly.
I don't use cash for anything over ten dollars. It's a real handicap for a
debit-holic like me. How can I food shop? What are the real banking hours
anyway? How much do I really need in cash??? Luckily, I bank in Bellport and
my friendly neighborhood banker helped me out. Bless her.
My huge checklist of necessary chores attached to losing a purse was getting
smaller. The car locks would be changed by Friday afternoon, and we would
soon feel safe again. All of the stuff I carry in my car found temporary
homes and we were ready to head out to Riverhead. Then the phone rang. I had
stopped hoping, too much time had passed. My purse was gone forever.
My purse was found. It was taken by mistake not stolen. I had put it under
the candles but not far enough away from the grandchildren's many bags,
bottles and toys. An adult, minding four very young children, gathered
everything in sight and secured it in their out-of-town car. There was no
reason to even think of the items until it was time to unpack. Late Thursday
night an unfamiliar pocketbook was unearthed in New Jersey.
What a relief! What timing! In a matter of minutes we would have been off to
spend $1,600 on new locks. Dare I say miracle? The bag was over-nighted to
me. I didn't have a blank check in it, after all. I did have club
memberships, health insurance cards and important addresses in it that I had
not yet missed. It was all there and I am so grateful. I still feel sorry
for adding stress to anyone at the funeral. I'm grateful, I have learned a
lesson and I'm going to pass it on.
Go directly to your pocketbooks (or wallets, for any man still reading this
column). Take out all the cards, credit, debit or business and scan and copy
them on both sides. Make sure that you can read all the numbers including
the phone numbers necessary to notify the companies. Do the same with your
license. Add this info to the names and account numbers of services such as
EZ Pass, in order to expedite notifications. Do a general wallet cleaning,
securing important phone numbers from old grocery lists.
And lastly – believe first that a mistake was made, before you believe a
crime was committed. I like being an optimist, not naïve but optimistic. So
long Buckaroos. Remember: Be prepared! The aggravation you save, may be your

I belong to several groups. Not one of them is organized
to the point of having official anybodies. I tend to think that is one of
the reasons the groups run so well. Often, when people are elected, they
feel that they have power of some sort or other. On the other hand
constituents often feel that they, by virtue of their vote, have some power
over the person elected. There is nothing new there.
Two of my groups are fiber related. The biggest decision I must make is
about which yarn or what fabric shall I use to create something. But so much
more is decided while we knit or quilt. Three years ago two of us were
dealing with breast cancer diagnoses and the distraction of cutting up
beautiful pieces of fabric and sewing them back together to make quilts made
the process easier. Crocheting while waiting for a radiation treatment is
easier than being alone with your thoughts.
Each life of the twenty or so women that gather weekly have had to deal with
something - illness, deaths, unemployment, concerns about a husband or
children, and parents. Young women brought their children when they were off
from school; another brought her 90 year old mother-in-law who put us all to
shame with her skills and vitality. Creating something with other people was
often more supportive than talking. If someone needs to talk there are
enough people in the room to select a sympathetic ear. If not, stitching
away at something is a welcomed distraction.
My friend Janet and I went to a quilting class given at the Henrietta
Acampora Cottage in Blue Point. The class grew into a quilt group. I had
been concerned that I did not have the skills to keep up with the avid
quilters but that soon dissipated. Each member was generous with her time
and talent and I soon felt comfortable enough to make horrendous mistakes
and ask for help. This same generosity was true of a Friday afternoon group
that meets at the Brookhaven Library. The added bonus to this group is
anyone who wants to work on any project, or simply wants to try some
handwork, is welcome on any Friday afternoon. Members knit, weave, crochet,
quilt, do blackwork – which dates back to Catherine of Aragon and mentioned
by Chaucer. In addition, members have made jewelry, dolls, teddy bears,
dragons and other fanciful creatures. I even tried Igolochkoy or punch
needle embroidery. The willingness to teach and learn makes it a most
pleasurable afternoon. Here, as well, the ages of the women vary, a fact
that does not matter one bit.
How does a group evolve? A person goes out for a morning cup of coffee. He
or she meets others out for a bagel or danish. At first, pleasantries are
exchanged and others join in. After a few weeks the conversations range from
the esoteric to the banal but always entertaining. Years go by and a few
people grow into an eclectic group of interesting men and women that
discuss, laugh, provoke, tease and enlighten. I enjoy being part of them
once a week.
With the technology of today any person can spend days and even weeks
without seeing another person. How are social skills learned if you are
constantly blogging, or twittering? How can you ascertain if a person is
really "fine" without looking at them? Where are the nuances?
A common interest binds people together even if initially it was only a
quest for a good cup of java. Classmates, fellow employees, musicians,
retirees, widows, church members, wood carvers and pilots can meet to talk
about the connection between them. Some experience, good or bad, connects
them and they become aware of each other. The best time to kick yourself out
the door is when you really feel like pulling the covers over your head.
Human beings are social animals and really need more than a tweet to keep
going. Maybe knowing this is a blessing of the old – Ah, finally a benefit
to growing older!

I like movies. I'm a movie junkie. When I was little, my Aunt
Rose and I would go to the Radio City Music Hall about once a month, or
every time there was a new movie. The Music Hall was a regular movie theatre
that just happened to also have a stage show complete with Rockettes. I
watched "To Kill a Mockingbird" from the front row at Radio City. It made
Gregory Peck look even more spectacular. Sometimes my aunt and I would catch
another show at the Criterion or even the Roxy. We saw "Anastasia" with
Ingrid Bergman at the Roxy before they dismantled it.
Ever so often in those days, "Gone with the Wind" would be re-released to
some theatre in the city. I saw it three times before I realized what Rhett
had in mind when he carried Scarlett up those magnificent stairs. I was
rather naïve in those days. We did not have movie ratings then other than
those put out by the Catholic Church. I remember that "Baby Doll" was
condemned. I don't remember much else about that list.
When we weren't going to movies, Aunt Rose and I would watch movies in her
room. She had one of the first TV remotes. It was about the size of a bar of
soap with a thumb-sized lever that "cachunked" when you hit it. It only
changed channels and went in a clockwise direction. If you wanted channel 2
and you were watching channel 4 you had to go through all the other
channels, but we had so few channels then. It took years before a movie that
you saw in the movie houses made it to "The Million Dollar Movie" on Channel
9. Then, you were able to see it every night that week at 7:30 PM. I learned
all the words of the songs and some of the dance routines from "Yankee
Doodle Dandy" that way. George M. Cohan would have been proud.
Aunt Rose died in 1981. I can't even imagine what she would have thought
about movies today. I know she would lament the passing of the real "Movie
Stars" like Spencer Tracy, Katherine Hepburn, and Gregory Peck. I mourn them
I know that she would not approve of three-quarters of what is made today,
but my Aunt Rose would have loved the accessibility of movies we enjoy now.
Netflix would have been her favorite as it is mine. The first movie I
ordered after I subscribed was "Marty" with Ernest Borgnine. "So whattaya
wanna do, Ange?" is such a classic line especially if you are an "Ange."
With Netflix, and all the movie channels, it's easy to catch a good new
movie or a favorite oldie. But, I especially love it when I find a sleeper,
or a small market film that never made it to Suffolk. Those seem to be the
most worthwhile. Now, with the new Netflix feature "Watch Instantly," I can
put a film into my instant "queue" and through the magic of a box called
Roku, have it on my screen in seconds. Currently you need yet another box to
use this feature but I found one for under $100 and I hooked it up myself.
For those who don't know me, that's fairly astounding. My husband, Rich,
usually gets those tasks, but he was happy to let me set it up.
Unfortunately, not all movies are available instantly, but it is still worth
it. Amazon.com is in the process of making all movies available to us
instantly. However, we will be charged per movie unlike Netflix's monthly
Movies are a great diversion for me as is baseball, specifically Mets
baseball. We all have our passions and hobbies and are fiercely devoted to
them. That is a good thing. Our creativity needs as much exercise as our
bodies. Try watching a great movie, listening to a ball game, and knitting
something at the same time. It sure makes me happy.
P.S. I'll occasionally pass on some movie titles that I found most
enjoyable. Check out: "Tea with Mussolini", "The Mighty", "Simon Birch",
"Dress Code" also titled "Bruno". "Dress Code" was made on Long Island
complete with Gary Sinese as a Suffolk County cop. Let me know what you

I'm a "clutterer", or should I say I am one who clutters since
clutterer sounds much better than it looks. I'm come from a long line of
clut… messy people. My favorite cleaning lady defined clutter as messy not
dirty. I take great solace in that.
My husband Rich and I lived on Bay Road in Brookhaven for 20 years. I had
stacks of stuff. Things I could not bear to throw away. The main problem
comes from not gleaning the wheat from the chaff, at least, occasionally.
The house on Bay Road was eccentric, old, had a dirt basement and no closets
or attic. Because of the layout we couldn't even buy stuff hiding furniture.
So I had "piles" everywhere.
When we moved to a much larger house on Prairie Lane, my friends and
relatives started making predictions as to how long it would take for me to
get those dreaded piles. It has been 13 years since those predictions and I
beat them but things are piling up lately,.
I come from a long line of stuff keepers. I grew up in Corona, Queens in the
house my father moved in as an infant in 1910, and died there in 1983. My
father had carefully filled a four car garage so well, that it was a feat to
drive his 1969 Ford Galaxy into its measured spot. This was the same garage
that his father filled. My grandfather at least had a discerning eye when it
came to kept treasures. Unfortunately, someone long before even my father
was grown, tossed out all those glass items. After all, to them, Tiffany was
only the name of a neighborhood factory. I think that story marked at least
two generations.
I read a self-help book on clutter which, in short, expounds that is ALL
clutterers have deep psychological reasons for holding on to stuff. I did
clean out the basement after reading it. But for some reason the last
chapter of this book was devoted to the importance of colon cleansing; so I
lost my initiative.
Someone once told me that filing cabinets are really not useful if you don't
regularly reorganize them. Most holding boxes and, my personal favorite,
totes of every shape and size, are filled with unnecessary items. Recently I
went through a file cabinet drawer and found the physicians' lists from at
least two health insurances ago. I started gleaning and filling bags of
recycled paper. It reminded me of cleaning out the house in Corona after my
mother died. My brothers and I had to go through over 80 years and two
generations of piles. I was on one of my paper recycling crusades and had
been tearing out pages from an old spiral notebook when I found it. I
started to cry.
On a page scrawled in my mother's distinctive handwriting was a note to us.
My brothers and I had been at each others' throats over dealing with all you
have to do when your parents die. But somehow in the middle of an old spiral
notebook, our mother pleaded with us not to fight because it would have
broken "Daddy's" heart. She wrote that she was ready to join him and that we
shouldn't feel too bad about her leaving.
How ?… when?… why?… who knows?…My brothers were as awestruck as I was, and
as good "watch out for the bad omens" Italians, decided not to discuss it.
Luckily I felt that notebook had too many clean pages to throw away.
Moral: Piles can be more than a pain in the ass.

Cupid's Undie Run Seattle photos | Seattle editorial photographer

I had a hilarious time photographing the Cupid's Undie Run in Seattle yesterday — and not just because I got to capture this surreal experience — though, luckily for all involved — I remained clothed! This was a blast because everyone seemed to be having a lot of fun, and were not timid about the huge number of photographers that seemed to make it out to Fremont. I tried my best to get close to people and let them know my intentions and put them at ease. Their alcohol tended to do the rest…

He was admitted to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital on Sunday, where an X-ray confirmed the fracture and surgery was carried out to insert a plate, the club said on their official website.
The 22-year-old returned to action against Quins after a four-week absence nursing an ankle injury, but he took a heavy blow to his head and was forced off 11 minutes into the second half.
Trinder now faces a lay-off of four to six weeks.

GOP stalwart Haley Barbour argued Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union" that Hurricane Sandy worked to President Obama's political benefit in the election.
"The hurricane is what broke Romney's momentum," he said. "I don't think there's any question about it."
"Any day that the news media is not talking about jobs and the economy, taxes and the economy, deficits and debt, Obamacare and energy, is a good day for Barack Obama. You had a blackout on all of those issues that started about last Saturday and lasted until about yesterday -- that is what really was good for Barack Obama. Now whether it was good enough remains to be seen."

PHOTOS: OHH SLIP: AnnaLynne McCord Suffers A Wardrobe Malfunction
Now if you read that in the best Gucci Mane voice you can imagine, then we are on the same page.
The 90210 starlet took a cold plunge under water, despite the 50 degree weather, in the pool at Ritz Carlton Hotel in Marina Del Ray while filming for her hit CW show.
PHOTOS: On Set Action AnnaLynne Stuns!
Wearing a sexy blue monokini, AnnaLynne looked to be a bit chilly in the cold air. The crew joked around with her while she shot the scene and McCord flipped them the bird! Feisty.
After the scene was over, AnnaLynne ran to a waiting crew member and wrapped herself up in a large blanket to warm up. The things our favorite stars do to make a chilling scene, well, hot.
Check out the pictures of AnnaLynne in the gallery above!

The Lakeland College men's volleyball team compiled a 5-1 record at the Midwest 10 Tournament held on Saturday, Feb. 9, at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, Ill.
Although the Muskies (10-1 overall) have remained unbeaten since the season began, the squad picked up its first match loss of the season in the final match of the tournament, 2-0 (25-20, 25-17), falling to UW-Oshkosh, who won the Division I national title over Lakeland last year.
However, the squad was able to down Wisconsin Volleyball Conference foe Marquette, 2-0 (25-19, 25-23) as well as perennially strong teams such as Notre Dame, 2-0 (25-21, 25-16), and tournament host Northern Illinois University, 2-0 (25-20, 25-15). The Muskies also tallied commanding victories over Illinois State, 2-0 (25-18, 25-19), and Ball State, 2-0 (25-23, 25-16).
Junior outside hitter Joe Julkowski led Lakeland's offensive drive for much of the tournament, tallying a team tournament-high 11 kills against Illinois State while also recording eight kills against UW-Oshkosh and seven kills against Ball State.
Senior middle hitter Jared Rohland also contributed at the net, compiling 18 kills, nine digs and seven blocks in the first three matches of the day. Junior setter Matt Clemens also had a solid tournament highlighted by a performance of 22 assists, three digs and three blocks against Ball State.
The Muskies will have another shot at UW-Oshkosh on Monday, Feb. 11, as they face the Titans in WVC action to determine who will remain undefeated in conference play. Match time is set for 8 p.m. in Oshkosh, Wis.

Letters from Dr. Randy Taylor
March 29, 2010
Dear Friends:
As I travel and hold revival meetings each month with churches across this country, I am reminded that revival time is one of the best ways for any church to see spiritual results among God's people. Revival will also broaden the Gospel message to the lost in their area. The cause of revival should be greater than any other church event. When people humble themselves and confess their sin, repent publicly and have fellowship restored, then revival could break out and our churches can experience a long season of revival. This makes the evangelist's journey worthwhile. Our energies also need to be directed to preserving the past and protecting this generation, as well as looking forward to the future.
The last few months my travels have taken me to two churches in Alabama, one in Indiana, one in Pennsylvania, one in Ohio, and three in West Virginia. The weather has been tough, troublesome and treacherous. But through it all, the Lord has helped me make it to every destination.
Please mark your calendar for the National God Save America Revival Conference. The date is November 8-11, 2010. We will give you more updates as plans evolve. The host pastor is Dr. Gary Biggs of Landmark Baptist Church, Petoskey, MI. You can call his church at 231-347-2654 for more information on the conference or to secure housing for you, your church members or youth group.
In closing, may I say I need your prayers. The ministry of evangelism in this changing evil world doesn't get any easier. There is always difficulty in trying to have revival in the local church. I covet your prayers as I continue striving to bring positive and lasting results to help pastors and their churches.
Thank you for your faithful support to the Randy Taylor Revivals Ministries.
Because He lives,
Dr. Randy E. Taylor
