of leaders worked with the future generation of leaders,” said Dr. Nathalia Rogers, cochair of the Long Island Youth Summit Steering Committee and director of the American Communities Institute at Dowling College. “The purpose of the Summit is to work with the brightest high school students to further their analytical and leadership abilities for the benefit of Long Island’s future.

Our Summit partners, which include high school teachers from many public schools and organizations such as the North ShoreLIJ Health System, Citizens Campaign for the Environment, Vision Long Island and others, worked hard to make this program a success.”

This year’s Summit started with a keynote address by Donald Monti, president and CEO of Renaissance Downtowns. Mr. Monti spoke to students about the importance of becoming leaders and being active in building the social and economic future for Long Island through investment in Smart Growth-type planning, as well as building communities that will allow for economic growth and environmental preservation.

This year’s Summit featured nine topical workshops that covered environmental, sociomedical and community issues.

WHO WON A FAMILY 4-PACK OF TICKETS TO SEE BOEING BOEING FROM SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR

Syosset Hospital chefs sliced their way through the North Shore-LIJ Health System’s Ultimate Chef Healthy Entrée Challenge competition on Thursday, placing first in the second annual cooking competition for their filet mignon marinated in chili pepper, tequila and lime juice with wild rice and celery root as well as a mango and jicama salsa dish.

“It’s a great validation to be recognized for the meals we prepare at Syosset Hospital and for providing nutritious and tasty dishes to our patients,” said Syosset Hospital chef Russell Ficke, who took home the top prize along with chef Xavier Haynes.

Mr. Haynes noted, “All of the chefs served up inventive meals today. It’s fun to have a day like this with some friendly competition that also shows off our quality work throughout the health system.”

During last year’s competition, Syosset Hospital took third place.

All of the dishes had to be no more than 500 calories, 15 grams of fat and 600 milligrams of sodium; health system registered dieticians evaluated these recipes.

“People may not realize this but our patients often enjoy the food we prepare at our facilities and rank it alongside that of restaurants,” said Michael Kiley, director of nutrition and food services at Glen Cove Hospital and chair of the North Shore-LIJ Health System’s chef committee. He also organized the cooking competition. “Events such as this show that our staff can prepare diverse, tasty and nutritious meals for our patients to savor when they come to our facilities.”

took second place this year for their chipotlerubbed pork tenderloin with garlic brown rice pilaf, curry yogurt sauce, mango chutney and collard greens.

Lenox Hill chefs Patricia Sobol and Johnny Beniquez were in third place with their shrimp dish that had a tomato saffron broth and a parsnip and celery root puree; chefs from Lenox Hill were in second place last year.

Chefs from 13 of North Shore-LIJ’s hospitals and facilities diced, sautéed and blanched at Glen Cove Hospital’s Pratt Auditorium during the competition to create tasty, appealing and healthful dishes. The competition, which was held during National Nutrition Month, helps to show that hospital food can not only be healthful but it also surpasses the stereotypes of being bland and boring.

During the competition, chefs had access to a pantry, stove top burners and a farmers’ market.

Each team was given 45 minutes to make a nutritious and delicious meal that was rated by three judges -- Adrian

Family Service League (FSL) was awarded an additional grant of $80,000 by the Robin Hood Foundation to cover direct relief expenses to individuals and families impacted by Hurricane Sandy. Family Service League had previously received a $200,000 grant from Robin Hood, which was partially allocated to direct relief. The need was so great that the allocation was soon expended.

“Many Suffolk County residents are still struggling after the storm,” said Karen Boorshtein, LCSW, FSL’s President and CEO. “Robin Hood’s support is allowing FSL to continue to provide direct disaster relief to Suffolk County’s most vulnerable residents.”

With Robin Hood’s grant, Family Service League will cover direct relief losses not covered by insurance or FEMA, including repairs and replacement of essentials.

HHH Events will learn in this seminar will be helpful to the patient, as well the provider by instilling confidence that he or she will be able to handle any situation that arises,” said Tom Lateulere, chief of education and training for the Suffolk County EMS Division.

The seminars are open to anyone who wishes to learn more about communicating with an individual with autism in a special situation. First responders who wish to obtain credit for attending the course should register through the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, Division of Emergency Medical Services at 631.852.5800.

All others should register by emailing info@ fpf4autism.org.

Checkin opens at 9 a.m. for the morning session and a light breakfast will be served; check-in for the afternoon session will begin at noon and refreshments will be served.

Suffolk Zone 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - Wednesday March 27, 2013

Scheduled this year to coincide with Autism Awareness Month, The Flying Point Foundation for Autism has again joined forces with Southampton Hospital and the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, Division of Emergency Medical Services to bring a seminar to Long Island that will help first responders and others not usually accustomed to interacting with those with autism better understand and react to the special circumstances that can arise in an emergency situation.

This year two seminars will be offered. The first is geared toward first responders and firefighters but is equally as relevant to anyone who might have to interact with an individual with autism in a tense situation. It was created by a Massachusetts firefighter who is also the father of a son with autism and featured on NBC’s Today show. It will be presented by Jason Dorval, also a firefighter and the

relationships with the ASD community.

“As a parent of a child with autism and a firefighter, I know firsthand that working with a developmentally disabled child can be challenging. Their lack of understanding, limited communication, and other special needs can be a huge problem in an emergency situation. This course will prepare first responders to better understand these individuals and react accordingly,” said Dorval.

Flying Point Foundation founder Kim Covell said the feedback from last year’s seminar was so positive that it was important to offer it a second time and expand its scope to include anyone who might interact with individuals with autism.

The county has again approved first responders receiving three hours noncore professional credit for taking the seminar, added Covell.

“The techniques and tools that each responder

The second, similar to the first seminar, is geared toward law enforcement, security, school support and hospital support personnel.

Both will be held at Hampton Bays Middle School on Saturday, April 6th. The first starting at 9:30 a.m. and the second at 1 p.m.

Dorval, a certified public fire and life safety instructor and presenter for the Autism Law Enforcement Education Coalition (ALEC), will discuss identifying characteristics of behaviors of a person with an Autism Spectrum Disorder, the fastest growing neurobiological condition in the world.

A person with ASD has an impaired ability to communicate, which can result in a high risk call for responders. The seminar will discuss special tactics, rescue techniques and how to effectively communicate with a person with ASD, as well as ways to build

Of Spring & weathering The Storm By: Jamie Lynn Ryan So spring is here, the groundhog(s) lied, etc… we’ve heard it all ad nauseum over the past week. Here’s a newsflash: just because the calendar noted the vernal equinox doesn’t mean Mother Nature automatically obliges with shining rays of sunshine and flower blossoms sprouting from every patch of newly green grass.

We’ve all had a rough winter. Autumn too, come to think of it. What began with the last golden notes of summer seemed to segue abruptly into hurricanes and blizzards with funny names who left none-too-funny paths of destruction in their

wakes. And now, five months later, most of us are still in the midst of cleaning up and “getting back to normal.” In fact, for some, that process is just beginning.

Five months later. Crazy.

Pretty soon, we will be counting down the days to beach season, hoping against hope that there will be some small sliver of sand and surf left to enjoy, never mind functional roads to get there.

And then – oh yes – the next hurricane season will be upon us, when all residents of Long Island will hold their collective breath and hope (preferably within the walls of their newly reconstructed homes) that last year’s oncein-a-lifetime storm was only

that. (Please.)

We claim to love living in an area that is fortunate to feature four unique seasons, each with their own benefits and annoyances; yet, with each month we seem to find more reasons to complain.

Too cold? Where’s spring?

Oh wait, now my allergies are acting up… Can’t wait for summer? Never mind – now the humidity is too high. Is autumn here yet? Brrrr… and the cycle continues.

Rest assured, spring – in all its glory – will be upon us before you know it. Don’t hate the groundhog – he’s just a poor little furry rodent who was rudely awakened by being wrenched from his hole in the ground.

“We can’t wait to open for our 44th season. Every year gets better and better as we educate our guests about the animal world and nature. I have the privilege of watching thousands of students experience firsthand what they learn in books from the classroom.

One of our greatest joys is when families throughout the region or visiting Long Island get to enjoy the park and spend quality time together. Bringing people together — what could be better? It is sure to be our best season yet,” said Diane Novak, Co-Owner and President of the Long Island Game Farm.

The team has made it that far in a regional competition.

The team will compete again April 4th to 6th at the Long Island Regional at Hofstra University, and hopes to win the event, qualifying the team to earn its second trip to nationals in St. Louis at the end of April. The team won the Rookie All-Star Award in its inaugural 2011 season, qualifying them for a trip to Nationals.

The ThunderColts, with 53 registered students, are led by advisors Julian Aptowitz and Christian Mirchel, science teachers at High School West, and aided by parent-engineers Yuri Wolf-Sonkin, Babu Kudaravalli, and Frank Calascione, all of whom have sons on the team.

This year, the team was greatly aided by a $25,000 grant from the Science Academy at Park Shore Day Camp and a $1,500 grant from BAE Systems.

In just its third year of building robots, the Half Hollow Hills ThunderColts bested 64 other high school teams to win the coveted Xerox Engineering Design “Creativity Award” at the Virginia Regional First Robotics Competition in Richmond on March 15th.

The ecstatic team also placed in the quarterfinals of the tournament, ultimately losing to the alliance that went on to place second in the event.

“Being able to go onto the field before thousands of people and prove that as a third-year team we could be so successful was truly one of the greatest feelings,” said Abhijith Kudaravalli of Dix Hills, team president and senior at HHH HS West.

The competition required high school teams to build a robot that could climb a three-tier tower and/or shoot Frisbee-like discs into a target from the ground. The 2013 FIRST Robotics challenge, called “Ultimate Ascent,” was announced via NASA satellite broadcast nationwide on January 5th, and teams had just over six weeks to construct their machine before locking it away until competition. Students from the district’s combined HS East and West team worked five nights a week and Saturdays, eating meals at school Fridays and Saturdays so they could keep working until the deadline at midnight February 19th.

In Virginia, HHH’s robot was the only robot of

Retailers in New York display an average of 32 square feet of tobacco products or the equivalent of more than 200 cigarette pack faces. In New York, 82% of retailers dedicate at least half of the space behind the checkout counter to openly visible tobacco products.

“32 square feet is larger than a billboard,” said Kennedy. “And it’s illegal for the industry to use billboards.”

Kick Butts Day, organized by the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, is a national day of activism that empowers youth.

Suffolk Zone 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - Wednesday March 27, 2013

Long Island youth have seen enough marketing from the tobacco industry and will join teens around the country to stand up and speak out against big tobacco, today on National Kick Butts Day. In New York State, 107,000 high school students smoke and over 22,000 kids under 18 become new daily smokers each year. To tackle this issue head-on, the Tobacco Action Coalition of Long Island will be partnering with youth groups from Nassau and Suffolk Counties to hold Kick Butts Day activities.

“Youth smoking is still a problem,” said Susan Kennedy Director of the Coalition. “According to the Surgeon General’s 2012 report Preventing Tobacco Use Among Youth and Young Adults, youth tobacco use is a “pediatric epidemic” and is caused, in

Supporters Turn Out Rain mixed with snow that signaled the early stages of a nor’easter failed to dissuade 200 guests from attending The Friends of Mercy Medical Center’s 47th Annual Gentlemen’s St. Patrick’s Dinner.

Returning to a familiar venue at the Hempstead Golf and Country Club, the March 7th black-tie event honored State Senator Dean G. Skelos, Republican Conference Leader, Temporary President and coLeader of the State Senate’s historic majority governing coalition.

Dr. Alan Guerci, Mercy’s president and CEO, was presented with a check for $170,000 representing the proceeds of The Friends’ 2012 fund-raising efforts which were pledged to support the hospital’s Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), the only facility on the south shore of Nassau County designated by New York State as being staffed and equipped to provide specialized complex care to all premature and sick newborns.

The event was chaired

by Andrew E. Healey of

Rockville Centre, a longtime member and past president of The Friends, and was sponsored by Neurological Surgery, PC the largest private neurosurgery practice on Long Island.

“The St. Patrick’s Dinner is one of the most significant fund-raisers for the Medical Center,” noted Friends President Dr. Marc DiSciullo of Muttontown, “And we are deeply grateful to our sponsor and attendees and to those who did not attend but supported the event nonetheless.”

and administrators who recognize the vital role that music learning plays in student achievement.

According to NAMM Foundation Executive Director Mary Luehrsen, the Best Communities for Music Education program is the bellwether of rising endorsement for this vital cause. “There is overwhelming research tying music education to higher overall student success in school and in life,” she said. “This designation recognizes communities for their commitment to music education and strengthens support for these programs.

Having widely embraced the evidence indicating that music education yields great things in schools and communities, people are increasingly affirmative, advocating for school music curricula, and championing programs like Best Communities that recognize this commitment to music education.”

Now in its 14th year, the BCME program requires each school and district to detail funding, staffing, commitment to standards, and access to music instruction. Responses are meticulously reviewed by researchers at The Institute for Educational Research and Public Service of Lawrence, Kansas (an affiliate of the University of Kansas) and the NAMM Foundation to calculate the designated districts and awarded schools.

The BCME program is a significant tool in the NAMM Foundation’s advocacy efforts on behalf of school-based music

education.

Numerous studies have demonstrated that learning to play music can boost student achievement and contributes to a school and district’s goals for success for all students. Also, a school music program is an instructional bargain; a NAMM-funded Cost of Music Education study found that a comprehensive K-through-12 music education program costs an average of only $187 per student per year.

“The designation reveals the elements of music programs so educators, administrators, teachers and students can see what they have, what they need, what they have accomplished, and what work needs to be done to strengthen their music education now and for the future,” Luehrsen said.

The award winning Half Hollow Hills Central School District of Babylon and Huntington provides educational services for students in grades Kindergarten through 12 and prides itself on being a Triple A District - achieving excellence in Academics, Athletics and the Arts.

Suffolk Zone 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - Wednesday March 27, 2013

For the third consecutive year, the Half Hollow Hills Central School District was named A Best Community for Music Education by The NAMM Foundation for its 14th annual Best Communities for Music Education (BCME) survey.

The Survey Competition acknowledges schools and districts across the U.S. for their commitment and support for music education as part of the core curriculum.

“In my ten tears at Half Hollow Hills, I have never been more proud of the performances and accomplishments of our music students and dedication and hard work of our music staff”, commented Sal Randazzo, HHH Director of Fine Arts.

“Having received the NAMM award for the third year in a row, I am truly gratified that the district is being recognized on the national level for all our achievements. It is an honor to be at the helm of such an impressive department in such a supportive community.”

The Best Communities designation recognizes collaborative, from-theground-up efforts of teachers, administrators, students and parents who continually work to keep comprehensive music education as an integral part of the core curriculum.

This year, nearly 2000 schools and school districts participated in the survey an increase of 366% from 2012, resulting in a record number of designations.

This year’s increase in survey participation is an indication of growing support from both parents

the program is that veterans are serving as the facilitators of the groups which provides a comfort and familiarity level to those veterans seeking assistance.

Funding for the program was secured by Senator Lee Zeldin in the amount of $200,000 through the pilot phase of the program.

“The Peer to Peer program is needed in Suffolk County as we have seen a rise of military suicides in our country,” said County Executive Bellone. “Those who are serving or who have served our country need our support and resources and the Peer to Peer program is designed to address the needs of the military community suffering from PTSD.”

Peer To Peer Program Launched Suffolk County is one of four municipalities in New York State who have implemented a pilot program named in honor of PFC Joseph Dwyer, a Suffolk County resident who joined the Army after 9/11 and was deployed to Iraq. PFC Dwyer suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and lost his battle with PTSD. The Peer To Peer program is overseen by the Suffolk County Veteran’s Service Agency and is designed to serve veterans, active duty, reserve and National Guard troops suffering from PTSD and allows veterans the opportunity to share and discuss their issues and problems with trained veteran personnel.

Suffolk County was chosen as a pilot County because of its large and diverse veteran population coupled with its reputation for delivering quality services to veterans. The Peer to Peer program currently holds seven weekly group meetings throughout Suffolk County with more than 78 veterans actively participating in the program.

The meetings operate with an acceptance of anonymity to ensure full participation by the military community.

The program has received full support from Suffolk County Veterans Service groups and the Northport VA Medical Center who also refers veterans to the program.

Camporee Event The Boy Scouts of America, Suffolk County Council will be holding an incredible event for the Scouts of Suffolk County over the weekend of April 26th through 28th.

Imagine over 6,000 Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Venturers, Explorers and adult leaders all gathered together for one big celebration of Scouting.

Last held in 2010, to mark the 100th Anniversary of Scouting, the Camporee is a chance to camp out with friends, meet new people, try activities, learn new skills, and enjoy the outdoors. The event is being held at Southaven County Park in Yaphank.

“Southaven – 2013” will feature over 200 activities for the participants. The

aquatic area will provide row boating, canoeing and kayaking opportunities.

Cub Scout activities will include archery, BB shooting, craft and science stations. Older Boy Scouts will ride BMX bike trails, participate in archery shooting, tomahawk throwing, pioneering and orienteering while camping at the park.

In addition to the ageappropriate activities, dozens of Long Island organizations will be set up in the Exhibit Area. Fire and Police departments, military groups and local clubs will be found in the Merit Badge “Midway.”

Scouting Museum Exhibits will transport the participants back to the early days of Scouting in

Suffolk County. Patches, mugs, early pictures and uniforms will be on display.

Saturday night will conclude with the “Big Show” featuring some great local entertainment and an amazing laser light finale. The entire event will celebrate the spirit of Scouting, which continues to thrive in Suffolk County.

Serving nearly 26,000 young people between 7 and 21 years of age, the Boy Scouts of America, Suffolk County Council is the foremost youth program of character development and valuesbased leadership training.
