Wall Street, Federal Hall (where Washington took the oath of office as our first President), Frances Tavern (where Washington said farewell to his troops) and Castle Clinton, a Revolutionary War Fort in Battery Park. After lunch at one of the best pizza places in NY, the troop paid a respectful visit to the 911 Memorial. After a quick stop at Trinity Church, including viewing Alexander Hamilton’s grave site, the Troop visited the Smithsonian’s American Indian Museum located in the historic Customs
House. Fortunately the Scouts brought their leaders on the trip. Upon entering the subway back to Penn Station, the scouts were given the chance for a free ride if they could identify what Perry Como what was famous for. Needless to say, they needed to rely on their much older leaders to provide the correct answer. The Troop returned to the LIRR Deer Park station after a long day and a better appreciation of the role lower Manhattan played in the history of the Revolutionary War.

Staying Warm This Winter
You never know what you might find when cleaning out the closet. I recently came across a handful of those origami-type, square and triangle-folded notes that we all used to exchange like crazy back in middle school. I remember writing dozens upon dozens of them and slipping them through the vents of my friends’ lockers between classes, then excitedly waiting for them to write back so I would have my own “mail� to look forward to the next time I stopped at my own locker. How funny. It’s too bad I didn’t save them all, as I’m sure they would have made for some fascinating reading all these
years later. Notes full of class schedules, song lyrics, lists of boys we had crushes on‌the usual pre-teen drama that seemed oh-soimportant at the time. We even developed our own language of sorts, with abbreviations and symbols that (so we thought) only we could comprehend. Such innocence. And then there were the “loveâ€? letters, those cute little poems surrounded by lots of hearts and x’s and o’s, and of course the requisite “A.A.F.â€? signifying the “always and foreverâ€? mentality that all 12 year-olds seem to have with regard to “love.â€? As corny as it all sounds now, there was definitely an underlying sweetness to those types of notes, a sense that somehow, with that
scrawled message of affection, everything was “official.� It’s a wonder, thinking back on it, how any of us managed to get any work done in between composing these little nuggets of wisdom – because you know they all had to be written during class time. After all, how else to make sure our friends were continuously updated on our comings and goings from the last 40 minute class! So many memories encapsulated by those little folded pieces of paper. A slice of life, preserved for all eternity on an 8-1/2 x 11-inch piece of loose-leaf paper. It doesn’t get any better than that. Can’t wait to see what other treasures my closet will uncover.

Each year the New York State School Boards Association (NYSSBA) selects artwork to use on the front of its holiday card that features the talent and creativity of New York’s public school students. The artwork is selected from the student art exhibit, coordinated by the NYS Art Teachers Association at its annual convention, held in October each year. The honor this year goes to North Ridge Primary School second
grader, Eleftherious (Eli) Demacopoulos. Eli’s artwork was chosen for the cover of the 2013 NYSSBA holiday card. Eli’s picture, entitled Starry Starry Night, was created when he was in the first grade. His picture was on display in the Empire Room of the Rochester Convention Center in Rochester,NY. The picture was choosen out of hundreds of submissions statewide. The holiday card is distributed to education-
related associations, legislators, and a select group of organizations and individuals with a relationship to NYSSBA. They are not sold for profit, and Eli’s family will be sent a supply of cards for their own use. Eli was bubbling with excitement when the above photo was taken, eager to share his techniques and his favorite one: “The doors even open!”

Shredding The Competition
Stony Brook University is one of 600+ universities internationally to participate in RecycleMania 2013, which pits colleges and universities to compete for stewardship bragging rights over which institution can reduce, reuse and recycle the most waste. Over an eight-week period from February 3rd to March 30th, participating schools compete in various categories measuring the success of their recycling, waste reduction and sustainability efforts. “We are stepping up our efforts to win it all this year,” said James O’Connor, Director of Sustainability and Transportation Operations at Stony Brook University. “In order to promote recycling and waste reduction, we are offering complimentary shredding services, recycling receptacle drop off for office spring cleanings, electronics recycling and waste minimization through junk mail elimination.” In 2012, Stony Brook University reached a pinnacle of success in RecycleMania by placing 17th out of 296 entries in the competition’s Gorilla category, which ranks universities on the total weight of bottles, cans, cardboard and recycled paper collected. This category’s ranking was the highest of any
college or university in New York State. Stony Brook also placed eighth out of 67 entries in the E-Waste category for the total weight of recycled electronic waste. “We are proud of our RecycleMania 2012 success and can’t wait for this year’s competition which starts on February 3. Stony Brook continues to make substantial improvements in the field of recycling by increasing the number of receptacles, installing new signage and increasing the amount of products we recycle,” said O’Connor. The Office of Sustainability is also supporting the Project 50 Forward Managed Output Project (MOP) led by the Division of Information Technology and Procurement Office. MOP is reviewing paper usage, working to decrease the University’s carbon footprint and to develop solutions to reduce, recycle and implement output savings. “During the past year this project saved 800,000 pages per semester simply by removing student cover pages from TLT Sinc Site printing output.” said David Ecker, Information Technology Manager. “The Library has also installed several multifunction devices that allow students to scan important library materials into their personal USB drive at no

Weddings are typically expensive affairs. Couples may be willing to go the extra mile and stretch their finances for their big day, but what about their guests? Couples ask much of their out-of-town wedding guests, who must arrange for travel and lodging and possibly even childcare if they are bringing young children. Because traveling to a wedding can be such a costly expenditure, many couples look for ways to alleviate some of the financial pressure that this travel places on their guests. The following are a few ways couples can do just that.

How To Help Guests Save On Travel
* Find an airport-friendly wedding destination. Couples who can get married within a short distance of a major airport can save their guests a significant amount of money. A major airport has more flights, and that can translate to more options and more affordable flights for your guests. In addition, a wedding destination that is close to an airport reduces the chance that guests will have to pay for rental cars. A cab ride to the hotel might be less expensive than a rental car, which guests may not need aside from getting to and from the airport. * Inquire about group airline rates. Couples know to negotiate group hotel rates for their wedding guests, but few may know it’s possible to negotiate group airline rates as well. If a large number of your wedding guests will be traveling from the same city, contact the major airlines to see if they offer group travel discounts. Many airlines do, so comparison shop to find your guests the best deal.
* Consider a longer engagement. A longer engagement can save your guests money on travel. Couples who choose to have a longer engagement and send savethe-date cards out early are giving their guests more time to book flights and find deals. Flights tend to be less expensive when booked well in advance, so a longer engagement gives guests more time to find a flight that’s affordable. In addition, travelers who can book early often get the first crack at the best flight times, saving themselves the nuisance of taking a red-eye flight or traveling early in the morning.

Best Man & Maid Of Honor Roles
Being chosen as a best man or a maid of honor is a significant and meaningful honor. Those roles have evolved over the years, but these special participants must still perform some of the traditional duties of the past, including serving as the official witnesses to the ceremony. The following is a rundown of the various duties maids of honor and best men are now expected to handle once they’re chosen for these distinguished honors.
Prior To The Wedding Before the wedding takes place, the maid of honor will closely assist the brideto-be with many of the important decisions related to the look and the feel of the wedding. She typically accompanies the bride to dress shops to select gowns for the bride and bridesmaids. Much in the same manner, the best man will assist
the groom-to-be with choosing tuxedoes or suits and also with coordinating with the ushers to ensure they know when to go for fittings. Although the best man will serve as a sounding board for the groom, traditionally the bride and her bridesmaids have taken on the majority of the wedding planning, so the maid of honor can expect to play a larger role than the best man. The maid of honor may be asked to delegate certain assignments, such as helping to find wedding vendors or addressing invitations. She may go with the bride for makeup and hairstyle trials. Together with the bridesmaids, she will plan a bridal shower party and a bachelorette excursion. She may select a wedding gift for the couple and present it on behalf of all the wedding attendants. The best man will coordinate the
bachelor party and may be asked and stands during the ceremony. Both will to assist the groom with selecting a sign the marriage certificate as witnesses. At the reception, the best man is honeymoon site or to come along to expected to give a toast and the maid of book the trip. honor may share some words as well.

* Experts advise that a couple start looking for a florist at least six months before t h e wedding, especially if the wedding will take p l a c e during the peak season of May
through September. Get recommendations from friends as to which florist they used or find out if your wedding planner or banquet hall manager recommends a particular florist. Some catering halls have agreements with florists, and they work together. * Browse magazines to get ideas of what you like. You also may be able to find a florist through an advertisement or if he or she has been featured in publications. Keep a scrapbook of the colors, types of flowers and arrangements and any other ideas that attract you so you will be able to present this information to the florist. * Establish your flower budget prior to sitting down with the florist. You should expect to pay at least 8 percent of the total wedding cost on flowers. Get an estimate on the floral arrangement and then tweak your needs according to your budget. Many florists can modify arrangements and find a middle ground with regard to cost. Selecting flowers that are in-season will result in more affordable rates than if you desire exotic or out-of-season blooms. * Once you’ve hired the florist, you can come up with a wedding flower worksheet that establishes all of your needs. The florist may ask for specific information, such as photos of the bride’s gown as well as the colors and styles that the wedding party will be wearing. A good florist knows that a bouquet should not overpower or detract from the beauty of the bride. The florist may want to mimic textures from the dress, such as beading, with smaller flowers or berries within the arrangement. The groom’s boutonniere is traditionally one of the flowers from the bride’s bouquet so that the look is cohesive. * Ceremony flowers may be traditional, and some houses of worship have strict guidelines as to what can and cannot be used. However, reception flowers can be where you show off your creativity and whimsy. After all, this is a party and it should be fun. You may want to give the florist more freedom of expression with regard to reception centerpieces and flowers that adorn other areas of the room. *
Because receptions tend to take place in the evening hours and are often indoor affairs, experts say that added lighting may be needed to put emphasis on the floral centerpieces and help present them in their best light. You may want to think about hiring a lighting designer to spotlight some areas of the

As with any decision when planning a wedding, choosing the right flowers requires some research and a basic knowledge of which flowers will convey the message and the theme of your wedding. The number of colors, textures and combinations that can be created are so numerous that couples may feel the decision on the floral arrangements is best left to the florist. But it doesn’t take a lot of expertise to know what you want, and it is important for couples to convey their feelings to the florist. Consider these tips when choosing a florist and selecting flowers.
Suffolk Zone 2 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - Wednesday January 30, 2013
What would a wedding day be without flowers? The beauty and the aroma of fresh-cut flowers can create a welcoming atmosphere and complement the beauty and the style of a wedding wardrobe. Flowers are often the first things that guests see upon arriving for the ceremony, and they may even be something guests take home at the end of the night. Flowers create an air of romance, and most couples want to make flowers -whether fresh or silk -- an integral part of their wedding day.

open fully. Minimize changes close to your wedding date as most things will already be started.
* To give the impression that there are more flowers than there really are, use fragrance and filler as your tools. Fragrant flowers can fill up the room with a welcoming aroma. Look for frangipani, lilies, hyacinths, jasmine, and sweet peas for a big impact. Florists know how to stretch arrangements by using greenery and other filler to lend bulk without too much extra cost.
* It is possible to make your own centerpieces or bouquets if you so desire. Simplicity will work best for the novice. Think about grouping similarhued calla lilies together for a bridal bouquet. Hydrangea and peonies are larger flowers that can easily fill up a vessel on a table as a centerpiece. White flowers will coordinate with any color scheme and could be the easiest to mix and match. White blooms include sweet pea, rose, camellia, stephanotis, narcissus, gardenia, orchid, lily of the valley, jasmine, and gypsophila.
*Experienced florists will know how long it takes certain buds to open and show off their maximum beauty. Therefore, expect a florist to be working on your floral arrangements as much as a week before the wedding date -- purchasing containers, cleaning flowers and waiting for certain ones to

Inspired By Kate Middleton, Brides Choose Classic Jewelry

Ever since Kate Middleton walked down the aisle at Westminster Abbey in her fabulous fitted gown and crystal teardrop earrings, brides everywhere have been emulating her classic, elegant style. Fashion jewelry leader CAROLEE quickly named its popular version of the earring “The Kate” -- and at $32 it’s within reach of elegant brides in every price range. “Throughout 2011, brides from Kate Middleton to Hollywood celebrities chose very classic styling for their jewelry,” said Jill Maier, Vice President of Design at CAROLEE. “We’re with them on that level, and we have an extensive collection of beautiful designer crystal and pearl bridal jewelry to suit the tastes of today’s discerning brides.” Ms. Maier has these tips for brides who want to look royal -- British or American style: - Choose crystal and pearl styles that are distinctive yet not overwhelming in scale - Balance the proportions of your earrings and necklace. If your earrings and necklace “match,” keep them close
in size with each other. Or if you choose major chandelier earrings, scale down your necklace or don’t wear one and make the wrist a focal point. - Bracelets are an important bridal accessory, and they look great worn in multiples -- stacks of crystal bangles, mixes of decorative floral pearl and crystal links, or a combination of bangles and links. To find a full range of elegant and affordable bridal jewelry, go to CAROLEE.com. Use code Metro12 and receive 20 percent off your purchase.
Tips For Writing Your Own Vows A wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event for many couples, so brides and grooms wish for the event to be momentous and memorable. As such, couples are increasingly integrating personal nuances into their ceremonies and receptions to tailor weddings to their unique visions. The desire to include personalized wedding vows continues to be a popular trend. If you are considering personalized wedding vows, first realize that it may not be a simple task. That’s because you want the message conveyed to be dear to your heart, and that can be challenging when faced with the pressures and planning of the rest of the wedding. That isn’t to say that writing your own vows is impossible. Here are some guidelines for personalizing your ceremony with your own sentiments. Schedule Time For Writing Amid the bustle of dress fittings and interviews with photographers, it can be easy to put off the important task of writing vows for another day.

Mark it in on your calendar or set a reminder on your computer just as you would any other appointment. Be Aware Of Ceremony Guidelines It is best to check with your officiant and confirm that personalized wedding vows are allowed. During civil ceremonies it’s often acceptable to customize vows as you see fit. However, during religious ceremonies there may be lines of scripture that need to be read or certain passages required. Before you spend hours working on the task, be sure that it is allowed and that your spouse and you are on the same page. Jot Down Your Feelings Answer some questions about what marriage means to you and how you feel about your spouse. Try to avoid trite sayings and think from your heart and personal experiences.

joined Boy Scout Troop 125 in 2005 where he held several leadership positions including patrol leader, assistant patrol leader, scribe and historian. Robert enjoyed “the meetings, the adventurous campouts and the life experiences that just would never have happened had I not been a scout.” He continued, “I have been to plenty of events throughout my years in scouting, watching others grow and change, not really believing that I was changing as well.” Robert earned a total of 28 merit badges, 7 more than needed to reach this scouting rank. He has hiked many trails and seen many cities with the Troop including the Nathan Hale Trail and Greenbelt Trail; Harriman, West Point, Gettysburg, Norwich, Boston and Washington, D.C. Some of his best memories were made during the seven times he attended summer camp. “My experiences
in scouting have changed me as a person.” Robert continued,” By exposing me to certain experiences in a comfortable setting, surrounded by friends, I overcame personal fears of climbing rock walls, whitewater rafting and doing things I’d never thought I would do.” A graduate of Commack High School, Robert is currently attending Suffolk Community College and, upon graduating, plans to transfer to a SUNY school and get his MBA in accounting. Robert reflected, “Looking back, I remember my role models in the troop, and hope that over the years I have become a role model for some other scouts. I hope that I have made some impact on the troop, one that will be remembered by the scouts that I call my friends.” The newest Eagle Scout is the son of Sue and Bob Cella, brother of Kimberly and grandson of Rose, all of whom reside in Commack.
On January 12th, the Harlem Wizards made their way to Hauppauge where they met up with Referee John “the Mouth” Kennedy, Jr., Minority Leader of the Suffolk County Legislature. It was a battle for the ages as the immovable object met the unstoppable force, with the Forest Brook Elementary School, Kicks for Cancer in memory of Courtney Tomkin who was a Hauppauge High School student who passed away from brain cancer and the Courtney Sipes Memorial Foundation (www.courtneysipes.org) benefitting from a game that rivaled the “Thrilla in Manila.” The Harlem Wizards, founded over 50 years ago by Howie Davis, is a family owned and operated travelling basketball team that travels nationwide combining comedy and high flying, rim rattling dunks taking on local teams to help with local fundraising efforts.
Throughout their starstudded history, the Wizards have featured Nancy Lieberman, Connie Hawkins, LA LA “Magic Man” Gable, played before Lech Walesa, crowds in China, Israel, Denmark, Italy and Turkey, played against a team made up of Boston Celtic All-Time Greats and featured many past and feature NBA players. This past Saturday, the Wizards took on an all-star team made up of Hauppauge elementary school teachers and staff, with proceeds from ticket and memorabilia sales going to the Forest Brook Elementary Parent Teacher Association, Hauppauge High School, Kicks for Cancer and the Courtney Sipes Memorial Foundation, which was founded in memory of Courtney Sipes, a Hauppauge student killed while crossing Smithtown’s Main Street by a drug-intoxicated driver.

An Eagle Court of Honor celebrating the achievement of Robert Cella, Boy Scout Troop 125’s 90th Eagle Scout, was held on January 5th, at the Commack United Methodist Church. For his Eagle Leadership Service Project, Robert built a 160 ft fence around a sensory garden at the Sweetbriar Nature Center in Smithtown. Additionally, he laid down landscaping fabric and mulch to protect the garden from weeds and help to reduce future maintenance. A total of 270 hours were logged into the project from the planning stage through its completion by Robert, 11 additional scouts and 14 adults. Robert began scouting in the first grade as a Tiger Scout with Cub Scout Packs 371, 293 and 125 where he went on to earn the Arrow of Light, the only badge earned as a Cub Scout that can be worn on a Boy Scout uniform.

The Cody Center is now a division of the Department of Pediatrics at Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital. “John has led a rapid expansion of clinical and community services for Autism and developmental disabilities at Stony Brook,” said Margaret McGovern, MD, PhD, Professor and Chairman, Department of Pediatrics, Stony Brook University School of Medicine, and Physician-in-Chief, Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital. “Not
only is he a leader in his clinical field, he has been an outstanding public servant and advocate for children with autism.” Dr. Pomeroy’s interest in the broader diagnostic concept of autism dates back to projects he began as a resident at the University of Iowa.

More recently, he served as a principal collaborator in the formation of the Downstate Center of Excellence for Dual Diagnosis, a consortium of 30 agencies created to enhance staff training and
