Kathy Hochul and Long Island advocates remainfearful the law would have devastating consequences for New Yorkers.</p><p>The Congressional Budget Office"s updated analysissaid that by 2034, the law would add$3.4 trillion to federal deficits and leave 10 million people without health insurance— a drop from the previous projection of 11.8, The Associated Press reported Monday. The projections for the uninsured were not broken down state-by-state.</p><p>A spokeswoman for Hochul on Tuesday said nothing has changed for New York.The federal budget billTrump signed into law on July 4 will still have devastating effects on New Yorkersbecause of federal funding cutsto Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, and new eligibility requirements,said spokeswoman Nicolette Simmonds in an emailed statement to Newsday.</p><p>"The New York Republican delegation was determined to push this bill through, eliminating health care for 1.5 million New Yorkers and stripping food security access to millions of seniors and children," Simmonds said. "They don"t care about their constituents, we heard them loud and clear. The Governor has said several times, this bill contains unprecedented cost-shifts that no one state can backfill. Our team will continue to assess the impacts and do what we can to protect New Yorkers."</p><p>Long Island"s two Republicans in the House, Rep. Nick LaLota of Amityville and Rep. Andrew Garbarino of Bayport,voted for the bill. The Island"s two Democratic House members voted against it.</p><p>Sign up for the Health newsletter<p>Get the latest stories every week about health and wellness, covering topics from medicine and mental health to updates on the coronavirus and new research.</p><p><form>Sign up</form></p><p>By clicking Sign up, you agree to our privacy policy.</p><p>"These targeted reforms are designed to protect benefits for those who truly need them while eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse that threaten the program long term," Garbarino said in a statement released a day before Trump signed the bill.</p><p>“At the same time," he added, "I remain concerned about the potential impact on New York State’s Essential Plan, but I am actively pursuing a fix that would ensure our state is not harmed by these provisions in the coming year. Continued access to affordable quality health care is a top priority."</p><p>Late Tuesday, when asked for comment, a spokesperson for Garbarino referred to his July 3 statement.</p><p>In a statement, alsoon July 3 andin support of the fiscal bill, LaLota said that "after 25 years without a balanced budget — and a debt-to-GDP ratio at its worst since WWII — both parties must work together to compassionately cut spending."</p><p>A spokesperson for LaLota did not immediately respond to a request for comment late Tuesday.</p><p>The AP reported that the CBO"s updated analysis reflects changes to the bill as Republicans in Congress negotiated its passage in the final days. Thelaw extendedcurrent tax rates for individuals that were set to expire at the end of the year and also cutfuture spending on Medicaid and food assistance, among other things, the AP reported.</p><p>Newsday has previously reported health care advocates said hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers could have no accessto health insurance because of changes to Medicaid eligibility and to Affordable Care Act enrollment requirements.</p><p>New York could lose $120 billion in federal Medicaid funding over the next decade, since it had expanded Medicaid access under the Affordable Care Act and is now expected to bear an increased share of Medicaid costs as a result of the new law,Newsday has reported, citing an analysis by KFF, a nonprofit focused on health care policy.</p><p>The latest state health data shows there are 367,087 Medicaid enrollees in Suffolk County and 308,354 in Nassau County, Newsday has reported.</p><p>"We’re concerned about Long Islanders losing access to Medicaid insurance, particularly with the new ... work requirement, " Vanessa Baird-Streeter, president and CEO of the Health and Welfare Council of Long Island, saidTuesday.</p><p>The Huntington Station-based council serves anumbrella advocacy agencyfor some 200 nonprofit human service agencies Islandwide.</p><p>"As we know it now, " Baird-Streeter added, "the requirements are 80 hours [of work] per month or actively seeking employment, or enrolled in school, or 20 hours a month in volunteer time."</p><p>She cited ongoing concernsabout whether states will have a system in place to verify to the federal government they are meeting the work requirement.</p><p>"It"s a complex reporting system," Baird-Streeter said. "If you need to verify that information on a monthly basis, the states are going to have to build and maintain the infrastructure to do so, and do it at their own expense."</p><p>Newsday"s Nicholas Grasso contributed to this story.</p><p><img src="https://www.newsday.com/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.newsday.com%2Fimage-service%2Fversion%2Fc%3AZjMyMGU5NjctNTllNC00%3ANjctNTllNC00NzFkYThm%2Fimage.jpg%3Ff%3DMugshot%26w%3D100%26q%3D1&w=256&q=75" rel="noopener noreferrer"><p>By Olivia Winslow<p>olivia.winslow@newsday.com<svg><use></use></svg>@newsollie</p></p> Gov.

3215496	有图 <p>How Uncertainty Shapes Global Investment Behavior</p><p>In this expert insight, Dr. Joseph J. French explores how shifts in government policies, ranging from trade and regulation to climate action, are reshaping the global financial landscape. Drawing from his research, he explains how investors respond to uncertainty, why emerging markets are especially vulnerable, and how energy hedge funds are adapting in the face of climate policy volatility.</p><p>A must-read for anyone interested in sustainable finance, risk management, and global economic trends.</p><p>By Dr. Joseph J. French</p><p>Uncertainty is a defining feature of today’s financial world. Governments around the globe frequently change policies related to trade, regulation, or climate, and these shifts create ripple effects throughout financial markets. My research focuses on how investors respond to this kind of policy uncertainty.</p><p>One of the central takeaways from my work is that uncertainty doesn’t always drive investors away. In some cases, global investors respond by reallocating capital to countries they perceive as more stable, even when those countries themselves are facing elevated uncertainty. However, when uncertainty becomes too widespread or persistent, especially during geopolitical shocks or financial crises, emerging markets tend to experience rapid capital outflows, putting pressure on their financial systems.</p><img src="https://ait.ac.th/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Policy-uncertanity-in-global-finance-1024x576.jpg" rel="noopener noreferrer"><p>Another focus of my work is on energy hedge funds, which face a unique mix of risks from both financial markets and the evolving energy transition. These funds must manage not only market volatility but also a growing set of regulatory and environmental risks. One increasingly important factor is climate policy uncertainty, the risk that governments will suddenly change carbon pricing, emissions targets, or energy subsidies. Interestingly, we find that these funds often respond to periods of high uncertainty by innovating, adopting strategies that reduce their fund-specific volatility. For instance, trend-following strategies that adapt to market momentum seem to help manage risks tied to energy prices, climate policy, and broader economic conditions.</p><p>Climate policy uncertainty doesn’t just affect energy firms; it also reshapes how investors price risk in sectors linked to fossil fuels, renewables, and infrastructure. As governments around the world pursue net-zero goals at different speeds and with varying consistency, the investment landscape becomes harder to navigate, especially for long-horizon capital.</p><p>Overall, my research shows that policy uncertainty is more than just a source of volatility; it actively reshapes how capital moves and how financial actors behave. By better understanding these patterns, we can help investors, institutions, and policymakers make more informed decisions in a world where uncertainty is likely to grow.</p><p><p><p> <img data-src="https://ait.ac.th/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/joseph-french-s-om.png"></p><p>About Dr. Joseph<p>Dr. Joseph J.

3215495	有图 <p>In a time when the boundaries of learning are being redefined, the School of Engineering and Technology at AIT is leading a powerful shift, by extending its mentorship, knowledge, and networks to young engineers beyond its own campus. Through student-led initiatives and a culture rooted in shared responsibility, AIT is nurturing the next generation of structural engineers not only from within its classrooms but from universities across Southeast Asia.</p><p>For many undergraduate students across the region, engineering is often a subject of equations and simulations. But through AIT’s outreach- including hands-on learning programs, mentorship by graduate students, and access to real-world structural challenges: young minds are finding real opportunities to learn, build, and grow into professionals.</p>The Seismic Platform That Shakes Ideas into Action<p>Among the most impactful platforms AIT has created is the Seismic Performance of Building Model competition, a student-led, internationally recognized challenge where civil engineering students from different universities design and test scaled models of earthquake-resilient buildings on a seismic shake table. Now in its third edition, this competition not only fosters innovation but serves as a key channel for identifying and nurturing talent from across the region.</p><p>The event has grown into more than a contest-it is a regional gathering of aspiring engineers, mentors, and professionals committed to strengthening communities through structural resilience. Participants gain exposure to experimental testing, structural modeling, team dynamics, and international collaboration- all under the mentorship of AIT graduate students and faculty.</p><img src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXeW1BucwkPwhsuA-QIaDgmpcHd_MjYl2ikcybR0yTpESSaaNgf7cndeFyssC_qx-S31cpRYPcraQx4tLvUyHs2lbjGLJfBv3H7_1ks5O87XOZQddBzbtP4o1yJzh0V7EPwq3KayHPNbASP5AuDOGLc?key=MK-oGFaBCxr-aL40sghCyQ" rel="noopener noreferrer">From Classroom Curiosity to Professional Confidence<p>One such story is that of Ms. Kyi Phyu Sin, a civil engineering student from Rangsit University, Thailand. Originally from the small coastal island of Mergui, Myanmar- a region prone to seismic activity, she joined a team that participated in the seismic competition and was mentored throughout the process by AIT students.</p><img src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdKjGyjoYo_pHf0Ti1yxrQsrGCAeuKb0J8awGxX0h9_XdO-0w2S2PF1yxrRJarYXH1VI_vngzJ6F2qYf9GLvuNK_XfjPwU3XmB9wWuZCiGjRaEjForGCzSID6mFxC7XJxrC8s5Hto73wIPKpItGP1k?key=MK-oGFaBCxr-aL40sghCyQ" rel="noopener noreferrer"><p>“Back home, earthquakes are part of daily life,” Ms. Kyi explains. “Being part of this program taught me how engineering can be life changing. I learned more in those few weeks than I had in years.”</p><p>With guidance from AIT’s Structural Engineering Forum, her team’s project went on to win top honors. More importantly, she emerged from the experience with tangible skills in structural behavior, report writing, and public presentation- assets that quickly became stepping stones in her young career.</p>The Power of Mentorship and Connection<p>What makes AIT’s approach unique is not just the technical training it offers, but the culture of mentorship. AIT students and faculty regularly engage with undergraduates from other universities, offering support in design, documentation, and professional presentation-not for credit or reward, but as a moral duty to uplift others.</p><img src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcfp-uDTYokXXPhURvNuvoaAYfi8W1ZDKIuv81hhO65tXqEykwmcaMvX5_2vKhnwWWyBG2iytBcpIWEqoFBGhYRKPFIyQ3ptiS3pGrVkrxd3FYobfb9FIyZXPOgubVwEv_H9EDVKAQhRRBGSdWZgho?key=MK-oGFaBCxr-aL40sghCyQ" rel="noopener noreferrer"><p>“People like Ms. Shin Thant and Mr. Lin Htin from the Structural Engineering program of AIT made sure we weren’t just completing a task,” Ms. Kyi shares. “They taught us how to think, how to collaborate, and how to carry ourselves as future engineers.”</p>Building Pathways to Careers<p>This support doesn’t end at the competition. Many students mentored through AIT’s initiatives have gone on to secure meaningful internships, research placements, and even scholarships for higher education. Ms. Kyi, for instance, is now interning at Civil Master Solutions Company Limited, contributing to projects involving pre-engineered buildings and industrial flooring.</p><img src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdfEvRcrGvcDEgEuwAYsu0efYKhorQFypD921RrTF6uvL9ylhNMdeE7p9bOpQttpHJXe88HOtcwUz0CDVe-GZ-Jf1yDHNOKQhxfCVKTlhGy1iHAcXe8cT0kxa-I151ed4K5tCuedspYvfSos8z5SZ8?key=MK-oGFaBCxr-aL40sghCyQ" rel="noopener noreferrer"><p>“When I went in for my internship interview, I was able to speak confidently — not just about theory, but about experience,” she says. “That made all the difference.”</p>A Platform That Lifts Others<p>AIT’s student-led programs are becoming an informal but powerful platform – one that helps undergraduates from various institutions gain visibility, refine their ideas, and build lasting networks. In doing so, AIT is not just teaching engineering – it is actively shaping the ecosystem in which young engineers thrive.</p><p>By mentoring peers, providing access to real-world tools, and fostering a spirit of inclusion, AIT is giving back to the region in the most sustainable way: by investing in its people.<img src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdbRwajV02ROUSbGWFkfhyxkZvPc-kaBpsKDzxFMSCbqHDJWf-myacISj3Oodf7QFEvnVKNgJO4w_bJqamycTQnzG_sh9Ri2_Y5gti54XogSEukNeF0EQNfFu2583ejYYif0DpH8Vi7VU694wltAeM?key=MK-oGFaBCxr-aL40sghCyQ" rel="noopener noreferrer"></p><p>“It’s not just about helping someone finish a project,” says Mr. Ashish Srivastava, senior PhD Student and one of AIT student mentors. “It’s about preparing them for what comes after- interviews, collaborations, leadership roles, and further studies.”</p>From One Student to Another<p>Ms. Kyi’s message to fellow students is simple but powerful: “Don’t be afraid to ask for help. And when you get it – use it, grow from it, and pass it on. That’s how we all rise.”</p><p>Her story is one of many – living proof that with the right guidance, support, and opportunity, potential can be transformed into purpose. And that transformation, AIT believes, should not be limited by institutional boundaries. As the world faces increasingly complex structural and environmental challenges, AIT’s quiet but powerful efforts to uplift and empower the next generation of engineers stand as a model for institutions everywhere. By extending its resources beyond its own campus, AIT is not just educating students, it is building a resilient, inclusive, and globally connected engineering community.</p><p>In supporting students from other universities, AIT’s own students are not only sharing knowledge but also evolving as mentors, leaders and global citizens. This dual journey of teaching and learning strengthens the academic fabric of the region, also proving that when students lift others, they rise too.</p> Empowering the Next Generation: How Structural Engineering at AIT is Nurturing Young Engineers Beyond it's Walls - Asian Institute of Technology	查看 7101	亚洲理工学院	2025-07-22 00:00:00 2025-07-23 13:36:43	word

One of them could belong to this year"s Derby winner. —Lisa Belcastro</p> </p> </p> </p> <p> <p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </p> </p> </p> </p> <p>Seventy-five days, 17 hours, 37 minutes.</p><p>I know you know, because we’re all counting down the days, hours, and minutes until the Martha’s Vineyard Striped Bass and Bluefish Derby begins, right?</p><p>If you fish the Derby, there is a dream living inside you. It might be a momentary dream or a lifelong dream, but I’m betting each and every fisherman who’s entered the Derby has had at least one thought of winning the Derby — and a boat.</p><p>I’m a surfcaster. I love the feel of the sand beneath my feet and the waves washing over my ankles. Even when it’s colder, and I’m wearing waders, there’s nothing better than standing on the shore and casting into the surf.</p><p>Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy going out on a boat fishing with friends from time to time. I’ll be fishing from a boat in a few weeks, for the Fluke for Luke Tournament.</p><p>Here’s my simple truth: I want to win a boat. Specifically, a 22-foot Eastern Boats Sisu, which just happens to be the grand prize for the Derby.</p><p>Last week, I spent a day seriously focused on my dream. No, I wasn’t fishing extra-long hours or shopping for new lures. I took a road trip with Dave Balon, Mark Wrabel, and Joe Susienka to Milton, N.H., to visit Greg Hopkins and Eastern Boats.</p><p>I’ve seen lots of boats in our Island waters. I’ve seen wooden boats under construction. But I’ve never seen a fiberglass boat being built, and I certainly hadn’t seen a Derby dream being assembled. This trip was better than tickets to the Super Bowl!</p><p>Greg met us in the parking lot, and began by introducing us to the Eastern Boats team and McKenzies’ apple cider doughnuts.</p><p>Within minutes, I knew my dream was in the right hands when Greg shared that he’d bought a boatbuilding company before he bought a boat. I don’t have a boat license, I don’t know how to drive or take care of a boat, but I want to win a Sisu!</p><p>Greg and his girlfriend Jess moved from Connecticut to Milton in 2008, long before he’d heard of Eastern Boats. Greg was a mortgage broker until the housing market crashed. He shifted gears, studied for his financial advisor license, and opened a new business. He also married Jess.</p><p>Living in a small town, Greg went door-to-door introducing himself. One of the doors he knocked on was Eastern Boats. He met a nice woman named Cheryl, who didn’t hire him.</p><p>Two years later, Cheryl remembered Greg. “We had a financial advisor. He passed away. I had Greg’s card on my desk. I went in to my boss and asked if he wanted me to call Greg. I called, and he answered,” said Cheryl.</p><p>From 2011 through 2019, Greg advised Eastern Boats: “Bob [Bourdeau, the former owner] joked a couple of times, ‘Wanna buy it?’”</p><p>In the spring of 2019, Bob asked again. Greg was in a different place. He’d had a cancer scare, and lost his dad to Alzheimer’s at the young age of 66. “I wasn’t saying no anymore. I was saying yes, and taking challenges,” said Greg, who talked the deal over with Jess and said yes to Eastern Boats.</p><p>In the past five years, Greg has hired dozens of local residents, lost a building to fire, built a building, rebuilt all the molds, and created an inviting work environment.</p><p>Greg focuses on helping his employees live their best lives. Parents can bring their children to work before and after school to avoid the need and cost of daycare. The last week of summer, when all the nearby camps are finished, Greg and his family host Camp Eastern at their home. “We have face-painting and games for the kids, and the parents can work,” said Greg.</p><p>Eastern spreads its generosity beyond the Milton community and the Derby. In addition to building a Sisu for the Derby, the team at Eastern is also building a boat for the Veterans Fishing Adventure. VFA offers disabled veterans and their families fishing and boating trips in Virginia on the Potomac and Occoquan Rivers (easternboats.com/veterans-fishing-adventure).</p><p>We saw the VFA boat under construction. We’re sworn to secrecy, as the color and design are surprises, so you’ll have to check out the Eastern website for the upcoming grand reveal: www.easternboats.com.</p><p>While the VFA boat and the Derby Sisu are designed by Eastern, anyone can create a super-cool boat. “We can do anything you want above the deck. We won’t alter anything below deck. We want to maintain the integrity and safety of the boat,” said Greg.</p><p>We saw the molds for Eastern’s nine hulls, from which they make 20 different model boats. Once a customer selects a model, the next level of fun begins — color, motor, furniture, fabric. We saw each step walking through the workshops. It was better than walking through the Cadbury factory in Tasmania and getting samples of each candy bar.</p><p>“You can come here, meet Haley [Holmes], meet Jason [Shearn], meet everybody building your boat. We send you pictures as it’s built. You can come up and see your boat. That’s the cool thing; by the time you take delivery, you’ve seen your boat from birth to finish,” said Greg, adding, “When you order a boat from us, you leave here and go right to the water.”</p><p>While I wondered about a navy and pink boat, one of the guys asked about motors. Greg explained that Eastern Boats semi-displace water. “The semi-displacement hull allows for the water to displace midship, therefore accommodating the sea and making for a much more comfortable ride,” said Greg, adding, “Our boats can handle speeds of 30 to 40 knots, but they are sweeter in the mid-20s.”</p><p>Over and over, as we walked through the different buildings, I was impressed by the number of people working on a boat. We saw every stage of production, from the hull mold to the seat fabrics. We even saw two Sisu boats in different stages. Either one could be this year’s Derby boat. We saw them. The dream is real. Very, very real!</p><p>I left Eastern Boats amped up. My dream of winning their Sisu was deeper, more personal. Greg, Jess, their two daughters, Ellie and Gia, and the team at Eastern Boats share the same comradery, same caring, and same sense of fun that we experience during the 35 days of the Derby.</p><p>The four of us left Milton grinning like kids who’d just opened the best presents from Santa. If you’re dreaming of owning a boat for the first time, or buying a new boat, you have to go meet Greg and his team at Eastern Boats, and tour the factory. I don’t know if you’ll get an apple cider doughnut, but you’ll have a fantastic time, you’ll understand why an Eastern Boat hull “can go through a wall,” and what it means to be locally made with personal attention to every detail.</p><p>I hope to see you on the beach, and I hope we’re both dreaming dreams that one day come true.</p> Building a dream - The Martha's Vineyard Times	查看 8485	《玛莎葡萄园岛时报》	2025-07-11 06:59:14 2025-07-23 13:35:04	word

We finally had great weather on both days, which created a flawless setting for the eighth annual Fluke for Luke Tournament. I was so excited for this year’s event. I was going fishing with three fabulous women –– Kathy Eckert, Midge Jacobs, and Anna McLaughlin –– on Captain Ed Smith’s Tenacious.</p><p>I had a house full of 20-somethings, the M.V. Surfcasters annual Picnic, and a family dinner at the Pawnee House on Saturday, so I skipped the first day of the tournament.</p><p>Captain Ed and I texted throughout the week, debating the all-important question: Where should we fish? Should we make the journey to Nantucket, or stick closer to the Vineyard? We went back and forth, finally deciding on Saturday morning to skip Nantucket.</p><p>On Sunday, the Flukettes rose at 4 am and were out on the water by 5. It was a little foggy at the start, then the sun rose, the sky cleared, and the day was perfect in just about every way possible. We got to our spot just as the sky was turning blue. Captain Ed had made us his special fluke jigs, and he’d cut up bags of squid. We were ready!</p><p>Kathy and Anna were new to the Fluke for Luke Tournament, and new to fluke fishing. As soon as we dropped our lines, we had nibbles. “I’m on,” was repeated frequently. The fish were definitely hungry for breakfast, and we were more than happy to reel them in. The first ones were short –– then Anna’s rod bent, and we knew it wasn’t a baby sea bass.</p><p>Anna reeled in the first keeper, an 18-inch fluke, and we all cheered. The Flukettes were on our way.</p><p>Captain Ed kept the boat steady at about one and a half knots, and we talked and jigged. Midge and I caught a lot of short flukes and little sea bass. I caught the first of many bait-stealing dogfish sharks. Suddenly, Kathy was on and working hard. Captain Ed studied the water, waiting for the fish to come into view. We all knew it was a nice fish when he gave a shout and raced for the net.</p><p>Kathy and Captain Ed got the fluke into the boat, and it was a nice-size doormat. The fish was feisty, so we got it into the cooler and closed the lid firmly. Pictures and weight would wait until the fish was dead, and there was zero chance of it flipping-flopping out of the boat and back into the water.</p><p>We were definitely drifting over a good spot. We all reeled in keeper fluke, though none as big as Kathy’s. After about 30 minutes, we weighed Kathy’s fish –– just over 7½ pounds on my scale.</p><p>I knew it was a contender, having taken a screenshot of the Saturday results before leaving the dock. Patrick Martone weighed in the heaviest fluke on Saturday at 7.18 pounds. I can’t tell you how happy I was for Kathy! She loves fishing, and always has a great attitude, whether we’re catching fish or not.</p><p>“I didn’t have any expectations of doing anything other than having a great day fishing,” said Kathy. “A big part of what I enjoyed was seeing Lisa and Eddie so happy.”</p><p>The Flukettes fished until 1:30, catching plenty of fluke, sea bass, sharks, sea robins, and even a few scup. I can’t tell you how many times one of us said, “This is such a great day.”</p><p>We loaded all our fish into my cooler and headed to the P.A. Club for weigh-in, the barbecue, and the awards ceremony. As Kathy carried her big fluke and decent sea bass to weigh-in, Chris Reimann spotted her and walked over to the scale. He gave a sigh of relief when Kathy’s fluke weighed in at 7.54 pounds, taking second to his 9.05-pounder.</p><p>Chris would hold onto first place, while Kathy would slip to fourth place. I was happy for Chris, but I was thrilled for Kathy. Her first Fluke for Luke Tournament and she finished fourth! How cool is that?!</p><p>We celebrated with fish tacos and lemon-strawberry prosecco sangria. “It was fun to catch all the different fish and fun to learn a new skill. It was a fun day, and delicious,” said Kathy.</p><p>Chris also had plenty to celebrate. He’d fished all eight tournaments in honor of his friend Luke Gurney, but this was the first year he’d won. “I knew it was a winner when I saw it go into the net,” said Chris, who’s been fishing since he was 4 years old.</p><p>Chris fished both days with his wife Kristen, daughter Klara, and friend Serel Garvin. “We’ve been fishing the tournament since it started. We fish for Luke as a family,” said Chris, adding, “Luke and I met through fishing. We had our first kids at the same time. We were in the same birthing class at the hospital. Luke was so gregarious, friendly, and outgoing.”</p><p>Chris will be back out on the boat next weekend. He’s waiting for the bonito to come in, but happy to have a line in the water. “This time of year, I will go fluke fishing pretty much every weekend. It’s great eating and relaxing. You turn the motor off and drift,” said Chris.</p><p>I hope to see you on the beach, and I hope we’re enjoying time with friends and family while we catch dinner.</p> Fluke for Luke: A celebration of friends and fishing - The Martha's Vineyard Times	查看 8491	《玛莎葡萄园岛时报》	2025-07-17 02:29:33 2025-07-23 13:35:04	word

The son of Samuel (“Mickey”) Cotton and Pearl Sirota, Paul attended Brookline High School before studying economics at Columbia University. He attended medical school and completed his medical training in psychiatry at Tufts University.</p><p>An esteemed psychiatrist, he began his career at Cambridge Hospital as the medical director of ambulatory community services. He was the founding medical director of Pembroke Hospital in 1982.</p><p>After moving to Burlington, Vt., in 1995, he practiced as a qualified forensic psychiatrist with the State of Vermont Department of Corrections. In addition, he worked at Otter Creek Associates and the Howard Center, and served on the medical staff of the department of psychiatry at the University of Vermont. He spent the last chapter of his career at Martha’s Vineyard Community Services, on the Island he loved so dearly. A commitment to treating major mental Illness in various settings defined his career.</p><p>A complex, mischievous, inward intellectual, Paul’s heart found its outward path after meeting Nancy Shea in 1970. They married in 1972, and she became his life’s greatest passion and partner. They built and decorated homes in Massachusetts, in both Brookline and Aquinnah, and later in Burlington. They shared a love of travel and theater, and together explored the vast world, and saw countless plays. Their cherished decades-long friendships regularly played out in their joyous, chaotic home, centered around their legendary dinner parties. Ultimately, he and Nancy challenged each other, and inspired others to live their best, most authentic lives, filled with drama and always beauty.</p><p>Paul prized speed and agility in all he did. His energy and intensity were boundless. A voracious reader, Paul never missed an issue of the New York Times or the New Yorker. It is important to note that in addition to his great personal and professional successes, he relished the management of the mundane. We will forever hear him celebrating a sale at Costco, finding the perfect “creemee” during his endless drives on Vermont country roads, surrendering his trash to the town dump, and securing a choice spot on the ferry.</p><p>He is survived by his wife, Nancy; his children, Anna Cotton and son-in-law Damon Runyan of Vineyard Haven, Mary Cotton and her partner Gina Caglione of Essex, Vt.; and Billy Cotton and partner Aaron Cator of New York, N.Y.; grandchildren, Jack Runyan, Will Runyan, and Parker, sister-in-law, Moira Shea; brother, Harvey Cotton, and sister-in-law Cathy Cotton; sister-in-law Vicki Cotton; and nieces and nephews Ben, Eli, and Rachel. He was predeceased by his parents, Mickey and Pearl, and his brother, John Cotton.</p><p>A funeral was held on July 18 at the Martha’s Vineyard Hebrew Center.

It was there on the family farm that Martha nurtured her love of animals and gardening. After World War II, Martha met the love of her life, Col. John R. Bean, while he visited the Polson farm seeking a Thanksgiving turkey. (Russ did go home with a turkey, and more important, a heart smitten by love.) A few years later, Martha and Russ married, and dedicated themselves to a busy military life, living and serving in many locations including Florida, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, New Jersey, and New Hampshire. Early in Russ’ military career, Martha served as president of the Tinker Air Force Base Wives Club. Martha was also a member of the Molly Stark Chapter of Daughters of American Revolution in New Hampshire.</p><p>Martha and Russ made their permanent home in Amherst, N.H. It was there that they devoted themselves to fully enjoying their family, especially with the arrival of grandchildren Jenifer, Alexandra, and Katlyn. Martha and Russ lovingly cared for many pets, including Siamese cats and many dachshunds. Martha doted abundantly on her children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews, knitting dozens of cherished sweaters and garments for all occasions. Martha loved doing handwork, especially needlepoint. There were many examples of her work in and about her home, which will ﬁnd loving homes with her family.</p><p>While a true New Hampshire Yankee, Martha and Russ spent many summers in their family cottage on Martha’s Vineyard. There Martha tended her daylilies and window boxes, and was a regular patron of local restaurants, ice creameries, and needlepoint vendors. In her later years, her favorite activity was to drive down to Memorial Wharf, get a cup of mocha chip ice cream, and watch the boats and people come and go on the waterfront.</p><p>Martha was impressively resilient. The ﬁrst year in her Amherst home, she endured a vacant second ﬂoor, with only exposed studs, rafters, and plywood ﬂoors. Extending this construction tolerance, in the Vineyard cottage the ﬁrst summer, there were no cabinets or countertops, and unﬁnished ﬂoors, too.</p><p>Martha kept an impeccably clean domicile. To her mind, cleanliness was indeed akin to godliness.</p><p>Martha took great joy in celebrating and attending the various accomplishments of her children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews. Many of these celebrations were in the arts, music, performances, and the like. Martha and Russ loved patronizing the arts and music, and regularly attended concerts and performances in Boston. The Christmas Pops was among Martha’s favorite events, which she lavishly shared with family.</p><p>Martha was never one to seek attention, and as such, she maintained a low proﬁle in her quiet life, cherishing mostly the love and care of her nuclear and extended family. Martha courageously navigated the challenges of aging and the decline of her wellness. True to all other aspects of her life, she handled aging with dignity, including the transition from independent living to assisted living in the Courville community at Carlyle Place in Bedford, and subsequently Courville at Manchester, where she spent her ﬁnal days with the loving care of the Courville staﬀ and VNA Hospice.</p><p>Martha is survived by her sons, Robert R. Bean (spouse Elaine Bean and daughter Jenifer) and Ned Bean (daughters Alexandra and Katlyn); loving dachshund Beau; sister Roberta Fairman; and nieces Page and Britannie and their children Noah, Emma, Nellie, and Elsie, and Laura LaVigne and her spouse Ken and their children, Curtis and Justin.</p><p>A reception celebrating Martha’s life will be held at Phaneuf Funeral Homes and Crematorium, 26 Kinsley St. in Nashua, N.H., on July 24, from 10 am to noon. Graveside services will be private. In lieu of ﬂowers, donations can be made to Little Paws Dachshund Rescue, online at littlepawsdr.org/donate, in memory of Martha.</p><p>Phaneuf Funeral Homes and Crematorium is assisting the family with arrangements.

3215474	有图 <p>John M. Hobby Sr., 89, of Plymouth and Martha’s Vineyard, passed away peacefully on June 13, 2025, at the Newfield House in Plymouth. He was the beloved husband of the late Susan (Wilder) Hobby, and a loving father, grandfather, brother, and friend to so many who will miss him dearly.</p><p><img src="https://www.mvtimes.com/mvt/uploads/2025/07/John-Hobby-Sr.-obit-231x300.jpg?x96521" rel="noopener noreferrer">Born in Stamford, Conn., and raised near Philadelphia, John graduated from Lehigh University in 1958, and later completed U.S. Army Officer Candidate School, an achievement he regarded with quiet pride. Though he didn’t serve in combat, he lived with a strong sense of duty, purpose, and integrity. John and Susan moved from Georgia to Chicago in their twenties before settling down with their family in Sherborn in 1971.</p><p>John made his mark in the printing press industry, where he built a respected career in marketing and sales. Known for his charisma, clear thinking, and talent for communicating and connecting with others, he became a leader in the field — and someone whose word and handshake truly meant something.</p><p>But John’s greatest legacy was the life he built with Susan. Jack and Susan met on a blind date, after which Jack pronounced that if he was able to have a second date with her, he was going to marry her. It was love at first sight, and their bond remained unshakable. When Susan suffered a stroke later in life, John stepped into the role of caregiver without hesitation. For more than 20 years, he helped her with daily rehab, lifting and loving her with strength, tenderness, and tireless devotion. Their relationship was a testament to loyalty, resilience, and deep love.</p><p>For more than two decades, John and Susan wintered at their home in White Cliffs in Plymouth, but it was their house on the water in Chilmark which they always felt was home. John embraced the rhythm of Island life — fishing, splitting wood, tending the fire, and watching the sun melt into the horizon. Every evening he would pause and say, “Look at that beautiful sunset,” as if it were the first one he’d ever seen.</p><p>John had many cherished friends from his years in Sherborn. He was an active member of the Dedham Country and Polo Club, where he spent afternoons golfing on the weekends, before fishing became his passion.</p><p>A lifelong outdoorsman, John loved fishing — especially early morning trips with his kids. He was a lifelong subscriber and looked forward to each Salt Water Sportsman magazine, quite possibly keeping every issue he ever received. Being on his boat with family and friends was truly his happy place.</p><p>He was also a loyal sports fan who never missed a golf match on TV, Red Sox game, Celtics tip-off, or Patriots kickoff. Snacks in hand — peanuts and pretzels –– he shared the experience with his grandchildren, who adored him.</p><p>A curious and thoughtful man, John was an avid reader of history, particularly the Civil War and World War II; he was an excellent conversationalist, and we will miss our talks with him.</p><p>His morning routine was sacred: a hot cup of coffee, the Martha’s Vineyard Gazette and the Boston Globe, a Sudoku puzzle, and his trusty graph paper, calculator, and perfectly sharpened pencils. He always had a budget, and he always had a plan.</p><p>Above all, John loved his family. He is survived by his children, John and Christine Hobby of Franklin, Roger and Kristen Hobby of Nantucket, and Jill and Jason Napior of West Tisbury. He was the proud and loving grandfather of Ryan, Matt, Maggie, Thomas, Lauren, Stella, Camden, and Leo; and great-grandpa to Brooks Hobby. He is also survived by his brother, Scott Hobby, and Scott’s wife Katherine of Atlanta, Ga.</p><p>John’s life was defined by his love of and loyalty to family, and his grit, witty humor, and kind heart. He lived fully and loved deeply. We will forever be grateful for all that he did for our family.
