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!�

“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 Throne-Holst.

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.

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 onhand 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.

SUFFOLK ZONE 4 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 19, 2012

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.”

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

SUFFOLK ZONE 4 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 19, 2012

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 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

5K Fun Run

Connetquot Central School District’s Connetquot High School Habitat for Humanity Club recently hosted the second annual 5K Santa Fun Run to raise money for the Suffolk County Habitat for Humanity Organization.

Over 300 runners from all across Long Island participated, following a course through the Bohemia neighborhood

while family and friends cheered them on. With the help of over 150 students and volunteers and the support of 60 sponsors, the run turned out to be a success.

The students, runners and volunteers were able to raise $10,000 to donate to the Suffolk County Habitat for Humanity Organization, with $1,500 of it being donated by Cablevision’s Power to

The school’s Youth & Family Services (YFS) Coordinator Mrs. Lara McNally, and her Peer Leaders, who would offer a performance based on the book ‘One’, displayed for

On The Rise

Upon the completion of her Sophomore year at Sayville High School, Emily Nowlan was accepted into the Brookhaven National Laboratory’s High School Science Research Program for the summer.

For her project, Emily was provided samples to study the unique and rare haplotypes of the southern flying squirrel as evidence of island biogeography.

As a result of her

research, Emily’s findings have been presented at various scientific venues.

In October, her mentor Jenifer Higbie presented Emily’s results at the National Wildlife Society’s Annual Conference in Portland Oregon on Emily’s behalf. Emily’s research was also presented at the Annual Pine Barrens Research Forum at BNL. In addition, this November, Emily

Home Field Advantage

presented the results of her research at BNL’s High School Research Program Poster Sesson.

All the genetics work was conducted at the High School R.I.S.E. (Research In Science and Engineering) Genetics Laboratory. Emily will be entering her research into the Long Island and New York State Science & Engineering Fairs this winter.

Charity Champions

Islip Town Councilman Anthony Senft (right) recently attended Connetquot High School’s 5K Run, the proceeds of which will go directly toward Habitat for Humanity efforts in our community.

During his visit Councilman Senft presented a check on behalf of Cablevision, which officially ushers in

the 2012-2013 Champions of Charity season by providing “seed” funds for future initiatives. Last year the students at Connetquot High School won Cablevision’s TriState Champions of Charity Award for their outstanding work with Habitat for Humanity projects.

They hope to continue their work with Habitat

for Humanity and defend their title by topping the $20,000 that was raised last year.

“These students have displayed a truly inspiring level of dedication to their community,” said Councilman Senft.

“I have no doubt that they’ll do everything they can to improve upon last year’s outstanding results and repeat as champions.”

On October 23rd, Connetquot H.S. Ladies Field Hockey Coach Jenn Piscitelli and her team, celebrated ‘Senior’ Day, played their first game on the newly renovated field and raised $700 to fight Crohn’s Disease! This was a big day for Connetquot, and their BayportBluepoint opponents challenged the ‘T-Birds’ in a game that ended in a scorless tie, resulting in an overtime period, but whose outcome wouldn’t be determined until the final ‘shootout’!

Mrs. Piscitelli emphasized that this particular day was so very important to recognize the seniors who had been such an important part of the program’s success. It

was also an exciting day because the team would have the opportunity to play their first game on the new, and first class, playing field while working with the community to raise funds to fight a disease that has hit ‘close to home’.

According to Coach Piscitelli “We have a senior on our team who learned this summer that she has Crohn’s, and has been unable to play for the majority of the season.”

The Connetquot – Bayport/Bluepoint game would provide the opportunity for the community to show their support for Meredith Fortgang.

A pre-game ceremony celebrated the efforts, and

success of the team’s 10 seniors. Mrs. Piscitelli congratulated each of them, and presented gifts that these young ladies will keep, along with memories of outstanding careers as part of Connetquot’s proud Field Hockey tradition. Despite the fact that the visitors would walk away with a hard-fought win, Coach Piscitelli said that she and the team “ … were happy with their effort, and grateful for the support of the fans.”

Congratulations to the Lady Thunderbirds Field Hockey Team, especially their graduating seniors, on a job well done and night to be proud of.

MOST VALUABLE STUDENTS - Legislator Rob Calarco was pleased to honor several Patchogue-Medford High School students with his Most Valuable Student Award given to those young men and women who go the extra distance to be valuable assets to their school and community. Pictured: 10th grader Gina Lin, 11th grader Irma Valverde and senior Matthew Vogel. Not pictured is 9th grader Alicia Kennedy.

The organization hosted multiple relief drives in partnership with neighboring community organizations including Idle Hour Elementary School and the St. Joseph’s Church Soup Kitchen to collect much needed items for community members including food, water, clothing, shoes, batteries,

cleaning and paper products.

Multiple volunteers, who were crucial to the events success, arrived early and stayed late to serve nearly 200 Hurricane Sandy Victims for the Thanksgiving Holiday.

Concert Performance Connetquot Central School District’s Edward J. Bosti Elementary School students, who are members of the Advanced Recorder Ensemble, recently put on a special musical performance to celebrate the holiday season.

The school’s Advanced Recorder Ensemble Music Teacher, Mrs. Lucy Puglin, and her students delivered a performance at the school’s Cafetorium in the spirit of the Thanksgiving Holiday for a select group of students from the SCOPE-run Before-School

Care program.

The ensemble students provided a fun and entertaining performance, to the youngsters who need a safe environment before the normal school start time, through their assortment of musical recorders.

Over 125 families walked the halls of the Islip Animal Shelter and Adopt-a-Pet Center on Saturday, filling the holiday stockings of each dog and cat. Toys, treats, and collars were rapidly emptied into 20 gallon recycling pails to ensure everyone got a chance to place a gift in a stocking. A total of four pails were filled and the stockings are gainfully overflowing.

“We want our animals to feel like they’re family here, not prisoners. These are good animals and they deserve a happy holiday season too,” said Deputy Supervisor Trish Bergin Weichbrodt. She and Town Clerk Olga Murray joined the crowds to

donate a toy and wish everyone “A happy and safe holiday.”

Many of those who came also donated food and milk bones, adding another 300 pounds of dog food and 100 pounds of cat food to the over 2000 pounds already collected at the start of December.

Volunteers from Shelter Link were also present, raffling off three large holiday pet baskets. $175 dollars was raised in raffle tickets alone. All of the monetary donations raised

by Shelter Link will be gifted to the shelter.

During all the holiday excitement, shelter employees were busy conducting meet-andgreets with those

Connetquot Central School District’s Student Government Club recently organized and hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for all members of the community consisting of more than 13 family-size turkeys, complete with all dressings and side dishes, for those still feeling the aftereffects of Hurricane Sandy.

interested in adopting.

Five dogs and two cats were adopted before the end of the day and five more applications are currently pending. Of those five dogs, long-time resident King Kong, a Mastiff/ Pit Bull mix who weighs well over 100 pounds, found his new home with a family that travelled all the way from Pennsylvania to come and meet him. King Kong had been at the shelter since April and was often overlooked due to his size and appearance.

Officer Honored

Supervisor Tom Croci and the Town Board recognized local resident and NYPD Office Lawrence DePrimo for his random act of kindness and generosity, which captured the world’s attention on November 14th. The Town Board was moved by DePrimo’s random act of kindness and awarded the hometown officer a citation of honor and merit.

Of his own accord, DePrimo selflessly purchased a pair of insulated winter boots and

thermal socks for a barefoot homeless man on the streets of Time Square; the act was captured by a New York City tourist and posted online, where it went viral. Supervisor Croci commended DePrimo for his admirable gesture and humble generosity.

“Officer DePrimo has reminded us to treat our fellow neighbors with respect and kindness,” said Supervisor Croci. “We must not forget that examples of compassion are rare and should be publicly recognized. The

Town Board and I are proud and honored to have Officer DePrimo in our community, and we look forward to his future accomplishments.”

DePrimo, a Holbrook resident, joined the NYPD in 2010 and is assigned to the Sixth Precinct in Manhattan.

“A random act of kindness is rare,” Deputy Supervisor Trish Bergin Weichbrodt said. “And we should celebrate it and recognize it when we see one.”

Retirement Luncheon

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

On Tuesday, December 11th, Connetquot Teachers Association (CTA) President Anthony Felicio, Jr., was invited to attend the annual RC211 Teachers Retirement Luncheon, which was held at the Westlake Inn, Patchogue.

RC21 President Joan Perrini welcomed the assembled retirees from the Bay Shore, Bayport/Blue Point, Brentwood, Central Islip, Connetquot, East Islip, Hauppauge, Islip, Sayville and West Islip school

districts.

The guest speaker for the luncheon was Lee Cutler, New York State United Teachers (NYSUT) SecretaryTreasurer.

Cutler and Perrini addressed topics important to retired, and current, educators, including pending legislation, medical insurance coverage, and future events and seminars.

Conferences such as this allow attendees to stay current on important issues, as well as enjoying the social

aspect of ‘catching up’ on the news.

Felicio had the opportunity to mingle with the organization executives, share ideas with NYSUT’s Lee Cutler, and spend time with retired Connetquot teachers, and old friends.

As the luncheon came to an end, and the raffle prizes were distributed, members offered best wishes for a special holiday, and promises to meet again next year.

Win-Win Situation

Joanne Kroll from Holbrook has been patronizing the Eastern Suffolk BOCES Adult Education Cosmetology program for the past two months. She retired from nursing and was looking to give back and to help aspiring students.

Joanne knew about the ESBOCES programs from her long-time friend Dorothea LoBiondo.

Dorothea is the Adult Education Cosmetology teacher at the ESBOCES Harry B. Ward Career and Technical Center (WCTC) in Riverhead.

Ms. LoBiondo said, “I told Joanne she could be a client and a model for the students.” Joanne said, “I’m very fussy about my hair but I found that the students follow directions and I am very satisfied with the results.” She found the students to be courteous, knowledgeable, and responding well to constructive criticism.

Joanne liked the services so much that she convinced her friend Josephine Trentino to come with her to have her hair colored and cut.

Josephine said, “Joanne’s hair always looked so nice and she got her nails done too. I thought I would give it a try. And, on top of everything it’s so affordable.” It’s a win-win situation for everyone.

Community members receive salon services from students who are aspiring to a new career and the students get real life experiences under the tutelage of a licensed cosmetology professional.

Jeanne Moir was the adult education student providing salon services to Joanne Kroll. Jeanne is a music teacher who took some time off, had children, and is now in the “second act” of her life, training to be a licensed cosmetologist. Jean said, “The ESBOCES program

really gives me a real-life work experience because members of the community come in and we have the opportunity to color, style, and cut hair. It also gives us a chance to work on our communication skills with the clients.”

Josephine’s operator was Marielle Pugliese.

Marielle had the task of fixing Josephine’s asymmetrical hair style.

Josephine said, “I recently had an asymmetrical hair cut at a local salon and didn’t like the way it turned out. I thought maybe one of the students could fix it.” Marielle with the guidance of Ms. LoBiondo recut Josephine’s hair and colored it to her liking.

Josephine said, “This was a very good experience for me and I’m going to tell my daughter about this and get her to come next time.”

Paws For A Cause

After receiving a visit by author Heather Worthington and learning about the interesting travels the dog in her story Miles of Smiles took, Avenue RETIREMENT LUNCHEON - NYSUT Secretary Treasurer Lee Cutler, RC21 Sylvan School President Joan Perrini, CTA President Tony Felicio, Jr., Connetquot Chapter President Elementary students decided to Peter Leis and RC21 Representative Marilyn Aitken. Photo by: Joseph Maniaci coordinate a supply drive

for some of the most helpless victims of Hurricane Sandy – the pets.

During the “Paws for a Cause” drive, students donated a wide variety of supplies, including dog and cat food, cat litter, bones, treats, towels and

blankets.

The items collected were given to the nonprofit animal rescue organization Guardians of Rescue, a group that has been actively involved in providing shelter, supplies and veterinary care for the furry victims of the hurricane.

Lighting The Community

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.

A large tree, donated by Robert Witcomb Landscape Gardening, was 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.

Grant Gift

Stony Brook University has received a $100,000 gift from Redwood Abstract Inc. of Smithtown, to support the expansion of Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital, currently, a specialized pediatric care center that offers a full range of medical services to support the physical, emotional, and mental development of infants, children, and teenagers.

The gift will be matched by an anonymous donor, providing a total impact of $200,000.

“Melissa and I are so pleased to be a part of the fund raising effort for Stony Brook Children’s.

Childhood is a time of magic and Stony Brook Children’s will help ensure

that every child has a happy, healthy and magical childhood,” said Mike Braun, the president of Redwood Abstract Inc., a full service title agency.

He added: “We would encourage everyone to consider making a donation. Stony Brook Children’s is a treasure for our community. One we will all share.” Mike and his wife, Melissa, have a son Matthew and daughter Kate and reside in Smithtown.

Margaret McGovern, MD, PhD, Chair, Department of Pediatrics and Physician-in-Chief, Stony Brook Long Island Children's Hospital, said, “We are very grateful to Redwood Abstract Inc. for their outstanding support

of Stony Brook Children’s.

This generous donation will have a great impact on our program in pediatric medicine, which is critical for optimizing the health of our children as well as making the medical advances that will help ensure the future of their healthcare.”

Dexter A. Bailey Jr., Vice President for University Advancement said, “Stony Brook Children’s is a vital community resource for children and their families throughout Long Island and beyond. It is only with the consistent support of local businesses and community leaders like Mike Braun that we are able to fulfill our noble mission.”
