Memorial Scholarship The Stony Brook University School of Journalism received a $50,000 gift from Elaine Crosson and her son Daniel, to establish The Matthew T. Crosson Memorial Scholarship In Journalism, which will endow a scholarship to support young journalists who wish to carry on the pursuit of public affairs journalism and advance public discourse for which the late Matt Crosson was so well known. A portion of the funding comes from donations from family and friends, and the full
$50,000 will be matched by a special grant to Stony Brook University by Jim and Marilyn Simons and the Simons Foundation, resulting in an impact of $100,000. The endowment will continue to be funded with additional donations from the community. Matt Crosson, the beloved and highlytouted former President of the Long Island Association, a title he held for 16 years, died unexpectedly on December 23, 2010 from complications following a stroke. He resigned from the LIA earlier that year
and accepted a job as the Chief Executive Officer of the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce. Following his death, Elaine and Dan, who is now 14, moved back to their home on Long Island after Elaine accepted a position at Stony Brook University as Vice President for External Relations. “It has been two years since Matt passed away and Daniel and I still miss him so much, as does the rest of his family, and so many others who knew and loved him,” said Elaine Crosson, JD, Crosson’s wife of 17 years. “Dan and I wanted to
Holiday Turkey Drive
make this gift now to commemorate Matt’s legacy as a great advocate for public dialogue, and to provide others an opportunity to honor his memory. “Matt was an attorney not a journalist by trade, yet his appreciation for the written word and his belief in responsible journalism was fierce, so in addition to his primary role of advancing economic development for Long Island, it was his personal mission to bring to fore the most pressing current affairs issues facing this community and all of New York by engaging some of the most relevant public figures and luminaries in our country in a personal dialogue right here in our own back yard. “The Matthew T. Crosson Memorial Scholarship endowment is meant to foster that mission, to keep the
vision alive by supporting journalists in training at Stony Brook who will carry on the pursuit of public discourse that Matt so cherished.” The Crosson scholarship will be available to a qualifying full-time junior or senior enrolled in the School of Journalism at Stony Brook University, where Jim Klurfeld, Crosson’s friend and longtime cohost of the public affairs program “Cutting Edge,” is a professor. The recipient must demonstrate a desire to pursue a career in journalism with a demonstrated interest in public affairs. The recipient will also have the opportunity to intern at Newsday or at News 12 Long Island and Newsday.com or a special rotating internship at all three news outlets. One recipient per year beginning in the Fall
2013 academic year will be chosen by a selected committee appointed by School of Journalism School Dean, Howard Schneider. “This scholarship will be invaluable in supporting students, year-after-year, whose passion will be to pursue reporting in the public interest,” said Schneider. “I can think of nothing more important.” “This is not only a wonderful development for our program but wholly appropriate that it should be in Matt Crosson's name,” said Klurfeld. “Whether he was a prosecutor, running the New York State Court system, heading the LIA or hosting a regular public affairs television show, Matt's goal was always to find the truth. That, of course, is also the goal of journalism.”
PLAN IN ADVANCE TO PROTECT YOUR FAMILY AND PRESERVE YOUR ASSETS.
Teachers Federal Credit Union, one of the country’s largest credit unions, in the spirit of the season, teamed up with Long Island Aquarium to sponsor a Turkey Drive at TFCU’s Headquarters, in Hauppauge. Paule T. Pachter, Executive Director and volunteers from Long Island Cares, Inc. – Harry Chapin Food Bank were on hand to accept donations of frozen turkeys, hams and chicken, along with nonperishable food, toys and cash donations. The turkeys and other items will be delivered by Long Island Cares to households in need of
assistance during the holiday season. “Our members and friends generously supported the turkey drive co-sponsored with the Long Island Aquarium. It was gratifying to see so many big-hearted people willing to go out of their way to bring frozen turkeys to our headquarters. Long Island Cares was appreciative and thankful for the turkeys, canned food and other items, and we’re sure that all the families who will enjoy the turkeys over the holiday will be equally grateful. The food donations will surely go a long way toward making
this holiday season much brighter for the neediest within our community,” said Robert G. Allen, CEO/President TFCU. The Long Island Aquarium brought its shark truck to the site. Lots of cameras captured photos of adults and kids smiling and enjoying the experience of the shark cage. In addition, donors, who were eligible to enter a special TFCU raffle, won exciting prizes.

Ten Everyday Items To Include In Your Recycling According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the United States recycles 30 percent of solid waste—such as food scraps, package wrapping, grass clippings and bigger items like old microwaves, sofas and refrigerators. Increasing that recycling frequency to just 60 percent could save the equivalent of 315 million barrels of oil annually, the EPA suggests. Here are 10 recycling tips for individuals looking to make a difference locally and globally: 1. Newspapers should be saved in their own bin, as this material goes directly back into newsprint recycling. Recycling a 4foot stack of newspapers saves the equivalent of one 40-foot fir tree. 2. Glass is recycled according to color: clear, green and brown. Recycling centers prefer when glass is separated this way. 3. Paint cans and aerosol cans are recyclable
but considered hazardous waste and need to be kept separate from other metals. Leave labels on these cans so recyclers know what was in them. 4. Plastic does not break down in landfill and, because it can be reused for many diverse products, efforts should be made to recycle all plastic waste. 5. Aluminum cans should always be recycled. Many recycling centers request they not be crushed flat. Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run your TV for three hours. 6. Electronic devices— such as radios, televisions, cell phones and computers—can be dropped off at recycling centers that accept used electronics. 7. Roof shingles are being recycled to make new roads. 8. Refrigerators can be given to their manufacturing companies or to recycling centers. Make sure the
chlorofluorocarbon, also known as CFC or Freon, has been drained and recycled. 9. Motor oil should never be dumped into storm drains, even if it’s only a small amount. Instead, recycle the oil at a quick lube shop or auto parts store. 10. Batteries should be disposed of properly. An automobile battery, also referred to as a lead-acid battery, contains about 21 pounds of lead, three pounds of plastic and one gallon of sulfuric acid, which can be toxic if handled improperly. Interstate Batteries is the No. 1 battery recycler in the U.S., recycling more than 850 million pounds of batteries last year alone. Automobile and alkaline batteries can be recycled at Interstate All Battery Centers and Interstate Batteries dealers. For a location, visit www.interstatebatteries.co m.

staff and fellow students as part of a day program, and later for their parents during an evening performance at the high school. At Charles Campagne Elementary School, the concert featured
performances by the band, vocal ensemble, orchestra, chorus and recorder ensemble. The groups sang traditional holiday favorites, in addition to some beginner classics.

By: Jamie Lynn Ryan Two days into 2013… so how is your year going? Have you given up on those promising New Year’s resolutions yet? Has your self-proclaimed “fresh start” gone by the wayside already? Two days in, and you’re wishing for 2014? Funny as it sounds, this is precisely the mentality many have when it comes to their failed attempts to remake their lives. One and done, so to speak, which is silly when you consider there are 365
days in a year, with countless opportunities for derailment during each and every one of them. Odds are, complications will arise at some point. Sure, there are days when frustrations are bound to get the better of us. Weeks even. But what is life if not a journey laid out before us, with twists and turns along the way? Some choose to stay the course, while others prefer the road less traveled – it all depends upon our respective mentalities, which, as we all well know, can change moment to
moment. The New Year is just another one of those days, for better or worse. It is what you choose to make of it, to a point. Only certain things are within our control; other aspects need be left up to fate. After all, what’s that they say about “the best laid plans”? Exactly. Don’t bother making them. So maintain that sense of optimism. Don’t despair quite yet. There are precisely 363 more days left to get it right. Good luck. And Happy New Year :)

Nearly 2,200 students received a degree and became Stony Brook University’s newest alumni at the 15th Annual Winter Commencement ceremony held today in the Pritchard Gymnasium located in the Intercollegiate Athletic Sports Complex. They join more than 150,000 predecessors world-wide whose lives and work personify the Stony Brook University mission. Due to the ongoing renovation of the Sports Arena, this year’s commencement was held as two events; one for students from the College of Arts and Sciences and another for all other students. Degrees were conferred upon graduates who completed their degree requirements during any one of the following semesters: Summer 2012; Fall 2012; and, Winter 2013. In total, 2,197 students received degrees, including 1,053 Bachelor degrees, 776 Masters degrees, 217 Doctoral degrees and 151 Certificate recipients. “You are graduating at an extraordinary time for our country and the world,” Stony Brook University President Samuel L. Stanley Jr., MD, told the graduates. “We face tremendous challenges, but also

t r e m e n d o u s opportunities; and I am convinced more and more every day that you and Stony Brook University are absolutely at the right place and the right time to make a positive difference in these difficult times.” President Stanley highlighted five personal stories of adversity and achievement at the ceremonies. He recognized Amy Pope (Psychology), 23, a resident of Long Beach, NY, who lost her home, car and all her possessions in Superstorm Sandy; Michael Tonge (Political Science), 23, of Harlem, NY, who endured the adversity of attending 12 different public schools in 12 years and went on to become the first of his seven siblings to graduate from college; Terence Coyle (Masters in Social Work), 54, from Huntington, a retired FDNY member suffering from the effects of spinal injuries and multiple surgeries, who went back to school to attain the skills and training necessary to begin a second career with the goal of helping people and striving for positive social change; Kyle Essington (Business Management), 22, of Chino Hills, CA, who was the starting quarterback for the
football team this year (2012) and most of the 2011 season. Kyle’s story is one of hard work and making the most of opportunities, leading the Seawolves to consecutive Big South titles (fourth straight overall) and two appearances in the Division I Football Championship playoffs, successfully balancing academics and athletics to earn accolades in both; and also recognized Poornima Peiris (Engineering), 23, of Cutchogue, NY, a student that emigrated from Sri Lanka with her family when she was just 12 years old. Growing up on the east end, she found herself immersed in a whole new culture. Today, she is the first person in her extended family to receive a college degree. “Stony Brook graduates are among the most successful of any public university in finding employment after graduation or continuing to graduate school,” said President Stanley. “I pledge that we will work to improve your prospects even more by increasing the value of your degree as we move toward our goal of being one of the 25 best public universities in the world.”
decided to use his share of the funds to help make a needy family’s Christmas memorable by purchasing gifts for a family identified by his church. Mr. Oppedisano is no stranger to helping others. Since the devastation of Hurricane Sandy, he has been volunteering with Evangel Church of God in
Lindenhurst, bringing supplies and doing free demolition work on victim’s homes. “I feel blessed to not only have won the Guild’s 50/50 raffle but to be able to share the winnings to bring Christmas to a family that might not have had one,” said Mr. Oppedisano.

Earlier this year, Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano announced that the County had, once again, partnered with Y.H. Park’s Taekwondo Academy for the 7th Annual New York Open T a e k w o n d o Championship/Korean Cultural Festival on Saturday, October 20th at the Athletic Center at Chaminade High School. The County Executive declared the day of the C h a m p i o n s h i p
“Taekwondo Day.” To show their appreciation, Y.H. Park donated the $3,500 raised from admission fees collected at the Festival to North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center. Andrew Malekoff, Executive Director and CEO was on hand to accept the check on behalf of North Shore. The funds will support “a community-based agency that has been a vital part of the fabric of life on Long Island for
more than a half century, offering services that are child-centered, familyfocused and needsdriven.” Currently an East Meadow resident, Y.H. Park is a former United States Olympic Coach and was the undefeated Korean national Taekwondo champion from 1971-1975. He has also authored seven books about the martial art.
the students, as they took in the joy of the children when placing the gifts under the Christmas tree in the playroom. “For these kids to be able to pick a toy or two while in the midst of treatment is extra special for them and gets their mind off of treatments and having to be at the outpatient center around the holidays,” said Robert I. Parker, MD, Director of the Division of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology at Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital. Stony Brook Child Life specialist Lauren Sharaby said that the many toys will be distributed first within pediatric outpatient clinic at the
Cancer Center and then as needed for patients at Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital. Chris Murray, Manager of Athletic Marketing at Stony Brook University, said that the athletes rallied to organize the holiday season toy drive. They collected donations from Athletics and many other University departments. They also received donations from fans who attended Stony Brook basketball games throughout the month of December. The group of athletes able to make the bus delivery represented a number of Stony Brook sports, including lacrosse, soccer, swimming and diving.
Golden Holiday
completion of radiation treatment. Golden grew up in foster homes and now lives in a group home in Ridge. Inspired by Golden’s personal triumphs living with limited mobility and other disabilities, the staff decided to surprise her with a luncheon party and lots of gifts. Among them fleece blankets, warm
socks, make up, stuffed animals, pajamas, and DVDs. Around the holiday season, the Department of Radiation Oncology holds a party that is sometimes a tribute to a patient. As a contribution, the staff donates gifts to that patient and pitches in to decorate the party room with some of the patient’s favorite holiday themes.
Children hospitalized at Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital were the beneficiaries of a holiday visit from Senator John Flanagan and members of the law firm Forchelli, Curto, Deegan, Schwartz, Mineo & Terrana, LLP, of Uniondale, NY, where Sen. Flanagan is of counsel, during a visit to Stony Brook Children’s on December 20th. Perhaps the biggest hit with the kids was a surprise visit by “Wolfie,” the Stony Brook University mascot. But nine-year-old Anthony Hinds-Adams of Amityville stole the show. A 4th grader at Park Avenue Memorial Elementary School, Anthony is the son of Michelle Hinds of Amityville. He aspires to become President of the United States, so he said he wanted to meet the Senator, pointing out that President Obama also was once a (U.S.) Senator. Anthony, who has sickle cell anemia, requiring monthly hospitalizations, presented two handwritten documents to
Sen. Flanagan. The first was a letter to President Obama, which he asked Sen. Flanagan to deliver on his behalf. It reads, “Dear President Obama, 1 Day I want to have tea with you and I want [to] visit you.” The second document was Anthony’s proposed “Toy Law,” which conveniently included a signature line for the President to sign the proposed legislation into law. It states” Any Kids would be able to walk down to Toy-r-us & Get Free toys but need to have a toy license [sic].” Sen. Flanagan promised to put both documents in the mail to President Obama on Anthony’s behalf. Later, Anthony reflected on the visit. “It was an honor,” he said. Sen. Flanagan’s law firm conducts an annual toy drive to benefit Long Island hospitals, and Stony Brook Children’s was selected as this year’s beneficiary. In addition to Sen. Flanagan, participants in the drive included Kathleen Deegan Dickson, Esq., partner with Forchelli, Curto,
Deegan, Schwartz, Mineo & Terrana, as well as Virginia Kawochka, Administrator of the firm. On hand to greet the holiday visitors were Stony Brook University President Samuel L. Stanley Jr.; Kenneth Kaushansky MD, MACP: Senior Vice President, Health Sciences, and Dean, Stony Brook University School of Medicine; L. Reuven Pasternak, MD, Vice President for Health Systems, Stony Brook Medicine, and Chief Executive Officer, Stony Brook University Hospital; Margaret M. McGovern, MD, PhD, Physician-inChief, Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital; and Debra Grimm MS, RN, Associate Director of Nursing and Administrator for Stony Brook Children’s.

Bringing Holiday Cheer
NASSAU ZONE 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS- WEDNESDAY JANUARY 2, 2013
A group of Stony Brook University athletes set out to bring joy to pediatric patients being treated at the Stony Brook University Cancer Center. So they took on a holiday season mission to “stuff” an Athletics bus with toys of all kinds and deliver the donated items directly to the kids. A few days before Christmas they delivered more than 100 toys and gifts, such as dolls, board games, lego kits, coloring sets, footballs, and a box full of lacrosse sticks. The pediatric patients, along with their siblings, beamed with delight when the unexpected delivery came. The moment was a welcome break from studies and training for

Following the ranking of Mercy Medical Center in the top 20% of hospitals in the entire state by U.S. News & World Report with a “superior” rating in patient safety - Mercy has earned high marks again. It has been ranked in the top tier for all of New York. Mercy was among 157 “Empire State” hospitals graded by The Leapfrog Group, receiving the highest grade in southwest Nassau County as measured by the Hospital Safety ScoreSM. “This latest recognition underscores the high level of safety and quality provided at Mercy,” said Mercy’s Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer Aaron E. Glatt, MD. “Our staff tirelessly deliver superior patient care.” Mercy scored among the best performing hospitals in three measures and better than average in eight, and ranked higher for patient safety than all other hospitals in southwest Nassau County and the majority of New
York State hospitals graded by The Leapfrog Group. The 375-bed facility is one of six Catholic Health Services (CHS) hospitals serving Nassau and Suffolk counties. Like all CHS member hospitals, Mercy participates in the New York State Partnership for Patients, a quality improvement and patient safety initiative launched by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

(NAPSI)-Here's eyeopening news: Recently published research from Oklahoma State University suggests that improving quality of sleep not only reduces stress, but also helps us manage everyday stress.
"When you're stressed and tired, every aspect of your life is affected," says lifestyle expert and spokesperson for the Better Sleep Council, Lissa Coffey. "Controlling stress and getting a good night's rest start with evaluating
your lifestyle." Dr. Douglas MacKay, N.D., vice president, scientific and regulatory affairs, Council for Responsible Nutrition, agrees: "Eating a healthy diet, taking vitamins and other supplements,
exercising regularly and getting adequate amounts of sleep are all part of a healthy lifestyle." Here are more tips to help you sleep better and stress less: 1. Eat a well-balanced diet.
2. Take your vitamins, including a daily multivitamin. Ask your doctor about other supplements, like valerian, for healthy sleep. 3. Evaluate your mattress--consider replacing it if it's five to
seven years old or older. Learn more about sleep a t www.lifesupplemented.org and at www.bettersleep.org.
