Spirit Of Giving tudents in Scott Mikelbank’s second grade class at Harley Avenue Primary School have embraced the spirit of giving – not just during the holiday season, but throughout the year – with a program Mr. Mikelbank initiated called Food Pantry Fridays. Every Friday, students are encouraged to donate nonperishable food items, which their teacher then brings to the Salvation Army and St. Anthony of Padua Church in East Northport.

certified nutritionist for the Cardiac Rehabilitation Center at Mt. Sinai Medical Center in New York. “The key to mindful eating is awareness. Just by paying more attention to what you eat, you’re more likely to make beneficial changes.”

Awareness When you pay attention to what you’re eating, you can make small changes that make a big difference. Here are some tips toward a more mindful approach: •Control portions.

Especially during the holidays, know that you’ll have more opportunities to eat festive snacks and desserts. You don’t have to deprive yourself, just eat smaller portions and less often.

•Eat when you’re hungry. Just because the clock says noon doesn’t mean you have to eat. If you’re not hungry, wait until you are – just don’t wait until you’re famished because you might overeat. Also, don’t eat just because the food is available. Learn more about why you might be eating when not hungry.

•Plan. Prepare healthy snacks throughout the day. If you tend to get

hungry between meals, bring along a 200-calorie, whole grain, high-fiber snack. Fiber keeps you feeling full longer. Learn how a little planning helps your heart, and your budget.

•Slow down. Enjoy each bite and put your fork down while chewing, then take a drink between each bite. This gives your body enough time to trigger your brain that you are satisfied (not necessarily full).

•Pay attention. Do not eat in front of the TV or computer, or while standing in the kitchen or talking on the phone.

When you do these things, you’re more likely to lose track of how much you’ve eaten.

•Use technology. As we continue to become increasingly distracted by modern technology, our focus on health can fall to the back burner. But it doesn’t have to be that way. “We can actually use our smartphones and other electronic devices to help us,” said Platt, a volunteer with the American Heart Association. “There are now apps that manage food records, count calories, help you track what you eat and even

provide guidance on healthy food choices at the grocery store and restaurants.”

•Keep a food diary.

Write down everything you eat, look at it, then identify why you ate it – was it hunger, stress, boredom? Then look for areas you can make adjustments and incorporate healthy changes. “Keeping a food diary is really key to awareness,” Platt said.

“Most people are surprised at all they’ve consumed when they review what they’ve eaten.”

Eating healthier is just one lifestyle change you can make to live a heart healthy life. More than 80 percent of heart disease can be prevented by simply lifestyle changes.

It’s the holidays and for most Americans, that means eating – lots of eating – followed by weight gain and a New Year’s resolution to lose weight.

But why not take a healthier approach to what we eat during this holiday season and beyond?

According to a recent website survey, about 18 percent of people say it’s hard for them to eat healthy because they don’t want to stop eating their favorite foods. The good news is you don’t have to. You can still enjoy your favorite occassional indulgences, but in moderation. It’s all about being mindful of what you eat.

Mindless Eating Mindless eating is consuming food just because it’s there. It’s eating while distracted – watching TV, working at a computer or texting on our smartphones. It’s eating for emotional comfort instead of for hunger. Simply put, it’s not paying attention to what we eat which can lead to being overweight and even obesity.

“Mindless eating has always been an issue,” said Riska Platt, M.S., a registered dietitian and

By: Jamie Lynn Ryan Two days. That’s it. Two days from now, the world will end. What to do with those remaining 48 hours…

Silly as it sounds, this is exactly what many people have been planning for in anticipation of the ominous 12.21.12. Pack your bags, stock up on the essentials and head underground with your rifles – because, let’s face it, ancient predictions seem to have a lot of merit in this day and age.

Right.

Call me a skeptic. Brand me a cynic. Perhaps, in

two days, all of us nonbelievers will be shocked by the turn of events. Or lack of, as the case may be. Let the doomsayers and naysayers battle it out.

One interesting question it does bring to light is: What would you do with your last few days on earth? Who would you spend them with? Where would you go? What would you hope to accomplish?

There never seems to be enough time day to day to do what we want. That’s under normal circumstances. But throw in the urgency of the end of civilization, and priorities tend to be reevaluated just a bit.

This is not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, in two days time, assuming we will all be sitting here laughing about the ancient Mayan prophecy gone wrong, we will have ample time to take this new “bucket” list and put it into action. Sort of like a new lease on life, no?

So relax. Enjoy. Savor.

Christmas is around the corner, followed by that traditional Times Square fresh start we all look forward to…and beyond that, who knows. Part of the fun, part of the adventure, part of the experience – here’s to the beginning of a whole new world!

planted in front of the hospital. Together with several smaller trees it framed the Nativity and displayed a symbolic tribute called “Lights of Love” in honor or memory of hundreds of loved ones.

“The Nativity lighting is one of the hallmarks of Good Samaritan’s being a Catholic institution,” expressed Good Samaritan’s Executive

Vice President and CAO Nancy Simmons. “This year was very special with the chance to honor those we love.”

Doves bearing the names of those being honored or memorialized will be hung in the main lobby of the hospital during the Christmas season.

The End Of The World As We Know It

It was by “Lights of Love” that the Good Samaritan Hospital Christmas Tree was lit this year. The hospital’s tree lighting event included fun activities and an opportunity to remember or honor someone special by lighting a bulb on the Christmas tree.

The festival raised more than $5,000 for The Hospital Foundation and was enjoyed by several hundred community members, staff and elected officials. The free event featured refreshments and lots of fun with a visit from Santa, his elves and friends from the North Pole.

In addition, attendees had their photos taken in a 15 ft. giant snow globe.

St. John the Baptist High School students dressed up as Frosty the Snowman and elves to help with the activities and perform several Christmas classics prior to the blessing of the Nativity.

impressed all of us on so many levels illustrating their knowledge and creativity,” said Linda Mitchell, Executive Director of the YPCC. “We are so glad that we have this opportunity to recognize their hard work and accomplishments.

This is a wonderful annual event for the students.” she continued.

During the competition students demonstrated their knowledge through presentations in categories including Fashion Marketing, Hospitality Services, Advertising, Graphic Design, Travel and Tourism, Entertainment Marketing, Sports Management, Sports M a r k e t i n g , Entrepreneurship, and Job Interview Skills. “It is an incredible competition that highlights the local leaders of tomorrow who

demonstrate exceptional knowledge of the business world,” said Robert Bontempi, Chairman of the Huntington Township Chamber of Commerce.

Elected officials were in attendance and proclamations were distributed to the students

by Assemblyman Andrew Raia, Legislator William Spencer, Councilwoman Susan Berland, Councilman Mark Cuthbertson, and Councilman Mark Mayoka. Jack Safarik, Past Exalted Ruler and Trustee of the Elks Lodge concluded “It is an honor for the Elks Lodge to host and be a part of recognizing the work of these phenomenal young students. The talent they present shows that the country is heading in the right direction and our future is very bright here on Long Island.”

Menorah Lighting

Huntington Town Council Members Mark Cuthbertson, Susan A. Berland and Eugene Cook hold traditional filled donuts as they join Rabbi Asher Vaisfiche of Chabad of Huntington for the annual Menorah Lighting Ceremony at Huntington Town Hall on Tuesday December 11th.

Before participating in

the lighting ceremony – each Council member lit a candle – the Council members listened to Rabbi Waisfiche deliver a brief talk explaining the meaning of the Jewish holiday of Chanukah, the significance the Menorah plays in the holiday and its symbolism for our current lives.

Donuts are a traditional

part of the holiday because of the oil used in their production, representing the single day’s worth of oil that burned for eight days in the menorah used to rededicate the Holy Temple after it was retaken from the Syrians by the Maccabees more than 2000 years ago.

Suffolk Students Selected Elwood-John H. Glenn High School students Kasey Muchnicki and Michael Gilmor were recently selected as recipients of New York State Association of Health, Physical Education, Recreation and

Dance Suffolk Zone Awards.

NEED MORE SALES? WE CAN HELP!

Suffolk County Treasurer Angie Carpenter reminds all property owners that if you have not received your 2012-2013 Real Property Tax Statement, you are still responsible for its payment. Please contact your Town’s Receiver of Taxes immediately so that a bill may be mailed to you.

“All the towns’ Receiver of Taxes have reported that tax bills will be mailed as of mid-December to each owner of record,” noted Treasurer Carpenter.

First-half tax is due without interest by January 10th to the respective Receiver of Taxes, and the second-half is due by May 31st. If the first-half tax is not paid by January 10th, the Receiver of Taxes will add interest at the rate of 1% per month on the balance of the firsthalf owed through May 31st. After May 31st, the total balance of tax owed is turned over to the County Treasurer for collection.

In addition to the flat amount of the tax due, the law requires that the Treasurer collect a 5% penalty together with interest at the rate of 1% per month calculated from February 1st.

Treasurer Carpenter also advises taxpayers to review their tax statements carefully, and pay special attention if the word “Arrears” appears at the top of their bills. If so, she advises “that the property owner should immediately contact the Suffolk County Treasurer’s Tax Record Room at 631.852.3000 to determine if prior years’ taxes are due, reminding all that we are here to assist in any way possible.”

For further information or to obtain a copy of the Suffolk County Treasurer’s Taxpayer Information Pamphlet, please call 631.852.1500 or visit the Treasurer’s website at Treasurer@suffolkcountyn y.gov.

Breaking The Holiday Blues While most people make the assumption that the suicide rate is highest during the winter holiday season, the experts at Long Island Crisis Center (LICC) say that the spring months actually rank highest for suicide.

“But, it is true that a lot of us walk around with a case of the ‘holiday blues,’ which could shade our perception,” states LICC’s Associate Executive Director, Theresa Buhse.

“Many people who attempt suicide feel depressed.

When they feel depressed during the winter, it’s actually easier for them to handle their depressed state because a lot of people around them are feeling ‘down.’ This could be due to the cold and dreary weather, the early nightfall, or the coming holidays when expectations are set too high!”

HOLIDAY SPECIAL

Walt Whitman Mall

yourself out of those holiday blues? Here are a few suggestions from the Crisis Center: · Lower expectations of a “perfect” holiday celebration with friends and family – it’s exhausting; go for fun and friendly instead! · Take some time for yourself (even a 15minute break!)…get outside, exercise, listen to music, read a book; · Feeling lonely and isolated? Volunteer at the local food bank – you’ll soon see that you’re needed and valued! · Don’t get yourself into debt buying presents! You won’t be able to enjoy the gift of giving! · The holiday season is not an excuse to do away with healthy eating and exercise for ten days!

Indulge (small tastings of everything) on the special days and your body will feel better;

and Drug Dependence.

The assembly was part of a LICADD psychoeducational program that focuses on students’ behaviors and attitudes and gives students the knowledge to make more informed decisions and say no to drugs and alcohol.

“The choices you make today will greatly impact your future,” explained Mr. Chassman. “We have a crisis going on surrounding drugs and alcohol. The good news is that it is 100 percent preventable.”

Students in Scott Mikelbank’s second-grade class at Harley Avenue Primary School in the Elwood Union Free School District have embraced the spirit of giving – not just during the holiday season, but throughout the year – with a program Mr. Mikelbank initiated called “Food Pantry

Fridays.”

Every Friday, students are encouraged to donate nonperishable food items, which their teacher then brings to a variety of local pantries, including the Salvation Army and St. Anthony of Padua Church in East Northport.

“It’s cool because we are learning about

The STOP Program For More Information Call: 631-226-2636 - www.theneighbornewspapers.com

Juniors and seniors of Harborfields High School recently took part in an

interactive anti-drunk driving program known as The Stop Program.

THE STOP PROGRAM - Senior Gerard Callan of Harborfields High School takes a ride in the “Drunk Buggy” with Deputy Sheriffs Tom Indence (left) and Rich Baker of the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Department as part of an interactive anti-drunk driving program known as The Stop Program.

Deputy Sheriffs Tom Indence and Rich Baker of the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Department shared information regarding the laws and consequences of driving under the influence.

Students were then offered the opportunity to participate in a simulated drunk-driving experience by wearing altered goggles and driving a buggy through a course of traffic cones that represented pedestrians.

“It was a really innovative way to get the point across to us,” remarked student Gerard Callan. “Much better than a lecture, because you actually get to experience the lack of control you have over your actions.”

Suffolk County Legislator Lou D’Amaro recently met with the advisor/founder and student participants from Walt Whitman High School’s Earn and Learn program, a unique educational initiative that provides students with tools, skills, mentoring and incentives that will enable them to succeed throughout high school and into the future.

Created by local businessman Jefry Rosmarin in 2003 as a response to alarming national school drop-out statistics, Earn and Learn offers a work incentive and mentoring opportunity to help students improve their grades, enhance school participation and build self-esteem and other important life skills. Each

student is “hired” as an “employee” and commits to specific requirements in schoolwork, behavior, attendance, and bi-weekly meetings with Mr. Rosmarin (who acts as their “employer”) or another mentor.

According to Mr. Rosmarin, students learn that they must take responsibility for their actions and that there are consequences if they do not meet the Earn and Learn requirements.

They quickly understand that, “If you do your job, you will get paid, if you don't, someone else who is more responsible will replace them.” It is a simple lesson that most adults already understand, and it helps prepare the students for a real job, he said.

Students and parents sign

an agreement confirming their understanding of the program’s rules and regulations.

Since its inception, Earn and Learn has expanded to include seven schools and dozens of students. To date, the program has proven to be remarkably effective in motivating the students to change their behavior and improve academically.

“The Earn and Learn Program helps set students out on a path to success,” said Legislator D’Amaro. “I applaud Mr. Rosmarin for developing this important initiative and thank him for his commitment to the local community. This is truly a great program that we are lucky to have at Walt Whitman High School. ”

County Awarded Grant

For More Information Call: 631-226-2636 - www.theneighbornewspapers.com

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone today announced that Suffolk County has been successful in securing a $126,000 New York State Empire State Development Corporation (NYSED) grant to be matched by Suffolk County with $116,000 and Southampton Town, which provided another $10,000 for a total $252,000 in funding to further safeguard the future of the Air National Guard (ANG) base at the county-owned airport and enhance the Rescue Wing’s ability to communicate with local, county and state emergency responders during emergencies.

Suffolk County applied for the grant in August under the NYESD Military Base Retention Grant Program, which is designed to enhance the competitiveness of the base during federal base realignments and closures expected in future defense budget cuts.

“The 106th Rescue Wing has an important role in the defense of our nation, and is an equally important community resource as evidenced in the aftermath of Super Storm Sandy,” said County Executive Bellone.

“We are pleased and thankful to Governor Cuomo for the $126,000 matching grant awarded by the New York State Empire Development Corporation. These funds, along with matching funds from the County and Southampton Town will help to ensure the “Wing” has the communication tools needed to enhance their domestic response capabilities.

During Super Storm Sandy, the 106th Rescue Wing provided vital resources to Suffolk County, including an essential command and control link between military and civilian agencies, swift water rescue support, and personnel to assist the Suffolk County Police Department and town and village police departments with relief supply distribution, gas station traffic control efforts and anti-looting patrols. As the magnitude of this disaster required all hands on deck, the 106th Rescue Wing truly lived up to the task and we are thankful for the partnership in helping to provide public safety for Suffolk County residents.”

“The 106th Rescue Wing is proud to partner with Suffolk County and

the surrounding community in the recent award of a New York Military Base Retention Grant,” said 106th Rescue Wing Commander Colonel Thomas Owens.

“In the wake of Super Storm Sandy, the Wing continues to support the cleanup efforts with members on State Active Duty while also fulfilling our federal mission with many members currently deployed overseas through 2013. The 106th Rescue Wing is especially honored to serve our Long Island communities, the state of New York and our nation during this holiday season. The award of this grant will not only facilitate rapid response to future critical missions but also continues to affirm and strengthen our partnerships; we are grateful for the tremendous support from Suffolk County and all our elected leaders. To our community - from the entire 106th Rescue Wing, our families and our friends - thank you very much, it is truly a privilege to serve.”

The base at Gabreski is one of ten major military installations in New York State.

The grant is available to municipalities with a demonstrated

history of support for military bases in New York. For several years, Suffolk County has been assisting the 106th ROW to remain competitive with other bases around the country by making significant improvements to the aviation infrastructure used both by the Air National Guard and civilian aircraft at Gabreski Airport. The matching portion of the grant will be covered by lease revenue generated from the Westhampton Business District, an industrial park on airport grounds. Under Federal Aviation Administration regulations, revenue generated from enterprises on airport grounds must be used for airport purposes, including improvements.

“During Storm Sandy, the 106th Rescue Wing was on-hand and on-call, providing critical command and control and support services.

The Council will continue to endorse projects, like this one, that support jobs and foster economic growth in Suffolk County, said Andrea Lohneiss, Executive Director of Long Island Regional Economic Development Council.

“The 106th Rescue

Wing is an essential part of the security for our region and the fabric of the local community. This grant award is tremendously important to protecting a key economic engine for the area, and a source of immense community pride.

Southampton Town is proud to have played a role in securing this critical funding,” said Supervisor Anna ThroneHolst. Southampton Town provided $10,000 in matching funds.

“In addition to their role in national defense, the Air National Guard makes a tangible contribution to the economy of the East End,” said Bellone. “This base provides jobs, training and a career path for many men and women in the local community. These highly skilled military jobs must stay in Suffolk.”

Statewide, military bases account for more than 10,000 direct jobs and an economic impact of more than $1.9 billion.

The grant funds will be used to purchase two wide band radio base stations with accessories, batteries, specialized antenna, chargers, multiband LMR and GPS microphones, mobile chargers, and vehicle

antennae.

The equipment will be controlled, operated and maintained by the ANG. In addition, a portion of the funds will underwrite the cost of travel to Washington D. C. to meet with elected and government officials periodically to advocate for the Gabreski base to remain untouched by federal defense cuts.

The 106th Rescue Wing has a storied history of service on the domestic front. In 1996, they were the first aircraft on the scene of the TWA Flight 800 crash; in 1999, they located the transponder from the wreckage of John F. Kennedy Junior’s downed aircraft, and in 2001, they were the first Air National Guard personnel to respond to the World Trade Center.

Stationed at Francis S. Gabreski Airport, just three miles north of the central business district of Westhampton Beach, the 106th ROW provides combat search and rescue support for United States and allied forces worldwide, and assists with everything from wild fire management to Coast Guard search and rescue operations here at home.
