• A desolate stretch of Speonk-Riverhead Road just off of Sunrise Highway, where someone recently dumped cases upon cases of expired energy drinks, is just one of many hot spots for illegal dumping throughout the central pine barrens, but the Central Pine Barrens Commission is looking to put a stop to that dumping with a simple message: We’re watching you.

• It’s the late 1960s, and rapid advances in air travel have turned the world on its head. What a great time to plan a French farce. Center Stage at Southampton Cultural Center opens its 10th season this evening with Marc Camoletti’s “Boeing Boeing,” the story of swinging bachelor Bernard who’s engaged to three international airline stewardesses, and has plans to lead secret separate lives with each of them at his flat in Paris.

Beth, thank you for doing such a great job on the Day in the Life story.
I know it was short notice but you certainly captured the flavor and intent of the day.
We just provide the framework for this program but as you noticed it is the hard work of the teachers and the experts that make these days a success.
My pleasure, Mel, it’s a great project, and it’s an inspiration to see the kids at work!
