It’s that time of year again. Men and women from across Long Island will be getting all of their red outfits and accessories ready for the American Heart Association’s 13th Annual Long Island Go Red For Women Luncheon.

Heart disease and stroke are the No. 1 and No. 4 killers of Long Island women.

For more than 10 years, women have been fighting heart disease individually and together as part of the Go Red For Women movement. More than 650,000 women’s lives

have been saved, but the fight is far from over.

While 1-in-30 American women die of breast cancer, almost 1-in-3 will die from cardiovascular disease.

Cardiovascular disease causes approximately 1 death per minute among females in the US. If you are a woman or there is a woman in your life you care about, Raise Your Voice, we must not be silent. Tell every woman you know that heart disease is our No. 1 killer. Help stop the No.1 killer by attending the Long Island American Heart Association’s 13th

Two weeks into the New Year, how are we all doing on those resolutions? Have we started the intense diet/ exercise regimens, cleaned our homes from top to bottom, blown through our many “To Do” lists and set out on our quest for the meaning of life? No? Too soon? Still easing into it?

It’s okay, take your time.

There are still eleven and a half months remaining to whip everything into shape – your body, home, mind and beyond – so no worries. Those resolutions will be there for as long

as you choose to pursue them. And, contrary to popular belief, they don’t even need to be set on January 1st. Any day, any time, no expiration needed to accomplish your everchanging goals. Imagine that.

January, for me, has always been somewhat of a time for hibernation – of settling in, catching up on some reading (that pile of Rolling Stone Magazines just keeps on growing), TV viewing (there was a reason I subscribed to Netflix all those months ago, wasn’t there?), movies (because we all know what quality cinema is released in the

dead of winter) and, when all else fails, curling up with a cup of hot cocoa and a batch of freshly baked (or burned, as the case may be) chocolate chip cookies on the couch.

The To Do lists, they’ll eventually get done – either by crossing each task off one by one, or by erasing the less desirables, moving them to another, less urgent column… say, “To Do: Sometime Next Year” …

Bundle up, hunker down and enjoy the winter while it’s here. It’s as good an excuse to vegetate as you’ll have for a while.

Long Islands’ hospitals and is the coordinating entity for LIHC. The Long Island Health Collaborative (LIHC) is comprised of all Long Island’s hospitals, the Nassau and Suffolk County Health Departments, dozens of communitybased organizations, and academic institutions.

These partners joined together in early 2013 to combine their expertise in a streamlined and cooperative effort to reach all Long Islanders and help them achieve improved health.

The website is a component of their work. The userfriendly site provides Long Islanders with comprehensive health promotion and disease

The Long Island Maritime Museum today announced that, beginning February 9th continuing through March

16th, we will be hosting The lecture series, offered “Winter Sundays” in the free of charge, will include museum library from 12:30 to guest speakers covering a 2:30 p.m. variety of maritime topics

prevention information at their fingertips. It’s a portal connecting Long Islanders to clinical and social service supports that will get them well or keep them well.

The LIHC is one of the few collaborative groups in the state of New York featuring a partnership between two neighboring counties and is the first time that Nassau and Suffolk counties are partnering in such a comprehensive way.

Public health and public affairs experts from the region’s hospitals, as well as health department leaders and representatives from social service organizations and public health specialists from colleges, comprise the

collaborative.

The group initially formed in February 2013 in response to enhanced state and federal government regulations that require all health care providers, local health departments, and community-based service organizations to work together to assure and improve health in communities they serve.

It has now moved beyond these mandates and stands as a fully integrated model of health and social service for all of Long Island’s communities.

More specifically, the state’s Prevention Agenda 2013 – 2017 mandate asked local county health departments, hospitals, community-based organizations, schools

Community Health Partnership

An innovative community health and planning initiative – one that is ground-breaking for the Long Island region – officially gets underway this Friday, January 10th, 2014, at 10 a.m. That is when the Long Island Health Collaborative (LIHC) – a bi-county effort to help Long Islanders improve their health – and the collaborative’s website debut at the offices of the Nassau-Suffolk Hospital Council (NSHC) in Hauppauge.

Dr. Howard Zucker, the First Deputy Commissioner of Health for the State of New York, will “flip the switch” and officially launch the LIHC and its website. NSHC is the agency that represents

and other regional partners to join together to address unmet health needs in communities.

LIHC performed that task in early 2013 and uncovered unmet needs in the areas of chronic disease prevention and management, especially related to obesity, as well as a great need for more mental health/substance abuse prevention and treatment services. As a result, LIHC’s efforts will focus on these priorities.

LIHC’s ultimate goal is the management of population health, which is really the steadfast coordination and integration of all clinical and social services that assist each and every Long Islander in becoming well and/

or staying well. Health care providers - hospitals, doctors, laboratory service providers, nutritionists and social service providers of all types - work together to provide coordinated health care. The website – http://nshc.hanys. org/long-island-healthcollaborative/ - is just the first step in achieving this goal. A bi-county walk effort to promote physical activity and that will reveal broad data about health and habits of Long Islanders is also planned, along with health and built-environment policy changes at the local level.

Twenty-one (21*) high school students who worked with Stony Brook University faculty were named among the 300 semifinalists in the national 2014 Intel Science Talent Search competition.

The mentors come from a range of departments and disciplines throughout Stony Brook, including: Anatomical Sciences, Applied Mathematics & Statistics, Biochemistry & Cell Biology, Biomedical Engineering, Chemistry, Geosciences, Medicine, Music, Neurobiology & Behavior, Pharmacological Sciences, Physics & Astronomy, and the School of Marine & Atmospheric Sciences (SoMAS).

The semifinalists will each receive awards of $1,000; their schools will also receive $1,000 for each Intel semifinalist named. The Intel STS finalists will be announced on January 22 and will

compete for additional awards in Washington, D.C. in March.

A number of talented high school students participate annually in summer research programs at Stony Brook, including the Garcia Center: Polymers at Engineered Interfaces Research Scholar Program, and the Simons Summer Research Program.

This year, on the 30th anniversary of the Simons program, 18 Simons Fellows were named Intel STS semifinalists. Ten of the 21 semifinalists who worked with Stony Brook mentors are from New York (Long Island had 50 semifinalists); other semifinalists working at Stony Brook included students from California (5), Florida, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Washington and Wisconsin.

The compelling numbers underscore Stony Brook’s

With funds raised from the sale of paper American Flags and t-shirt sales through United Way of Long Island’s Operation Live United Teachers Federal Credit Union provided Suffolk County United Veterans with a $5,500 donation in support of its programs and services for homeless and at risk Veterans.

“The challenges of returning Vets remain

a significant concern on Long Island. We are grateful to the Teachers Federal Credit Union for their generous support and to the United Way of Long Island for conducting their Operation Live United project” stated Suffolk County United Veterans Executive Director Michael Stoltz.

Long Island is home to more Veterans than any metropolitan region in the

ENTER TO WIN A PAIR OF TICKETS TO

School-Business Partnerships of Long Island, Inc. (SBPLI) has announced that the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Tech Challenge (FTC) Qualifying Tournament will be held on Sunday, January 19th at Hewlett High School from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The school is located on 60 Everit Avenue in Hewlett.

This year’s challenge is FTC® BLOCK PARTY!SM, in which robots must place plastic blocks onto pendulum goals.

Students will program their robots to operate in both autonomous and driver-controlled modes on a specially designed field. Each match will last two-and-a-half minutes, beginning with a 30-second autonomous period. Each team will be required to raise their team flag up a flagpole, elevate their robots off the ground using a platform pull-up bar, and finish the match with a balanced pendulum to earn extra points.

The event is affiliated with New York City FIRST,

with support from SBPLI. FIRST Tech Challenge was created for students in grades seven through 12 to build similar robots, utilize a smaller playing field, and costs less to participate in than the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC). Just like in FRC, students apply the concepts of math and science they learned at school to design, build and program robots for a competitive challenge.

The FTC is open to high school teams, as well as local community-based organizations

Proudly Serving The Community Since 1953!

“We are delighted to help New York City FIRST implement this FTC tournament on Long Island,” says Joani Madarash, Executive Director, School-Business Partnerships of Long Island, Inc. “We love helping students learn the importance of math and science with hands-on experience and encourage Long Islanders to attend this fun, competitive tournament.”

The Need To Develop A Retirement Plan (NAPSI)—Preparing for retirement can be a challenging process— and emerging trends are not helping matters.

Fortunately, developing a retirement plan can help.

That’s the word from experts who say changes in employee benefits, longer life spans, uncertainty

with Social Security and Medicare and the rising cost of health care have made funding retirement more difficult.

With most of the responsibilities for financial aspects of retirement now falling squarely on the shoulders of individuals, the key, according to Insured

Retirement Institute President and CEO Cathy Weatherford, is to have a comprehensive plan that addresses both retirement income and expensesincluding health care.

National Retirement Planning Week was created to remind consumers of the importance of having

a plan for funding their retirement.

For those needing help, a professional financial advisor can assist when creating a road map toward attaining financial security.

By: John Whitton, Bay Shore

I have myself, everybody has themselves.

To each his or her own, not for granted, but with skills that embody the spirit for a universal testament of worldly to divine value.

How do we love it?

Thru respect, be it intense, out of common ground or in a little way, in a gesture of favor and not spite.

Do not erase God’s work among all.

Embrace each one for gifts as perennial as the grass.

Morning Of Destruction SUFFOLK ZONE 2 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 15, 2014 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

By: Ray Steinberg, Commack I woke up one morning, it was too quiet, and calm, Could this have been the aftermath of the dropping of the bomb.

There came no chirping from the birds, And from the radio, there came no words.

Through my body ran a strange sensation, I went outside to cure my temptation, But to my surprise, this was no imagination, This whole damn world was in a state of ruination.

I stood there for hours, feeling so strange, Those buildings that I once knew, were now rearranged.

The cold war had come, and the cold war had passed, And the morning of destruction, was here at last.

I couldn’t feel love, I couldn’t feel pity, But I knew one thing, there was no more city.

As I walked through the streets of trash, and rubble, In the far away distance, a mushroom shaped bubble, The final end to all that past trouble.

And yesterday, the grass was so green, And the people, and places, and all was serene, And my younger brother would have turned sixteen.

And yesterday, as I was up there flying, The big three, the UN, one was lying, Contemplating for today how the people would be dying.

And now the radiation is coming towards me, and I’ll just wait, and I won’t resist, For when you know you’ll never again be kissed, what good is it for you to exist.

Natale mentioned that Multiple Sclerosis is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system, which interrupts the flow of information with the brain, and between the brain and body.

Symptoms range from numbness and tingling to blindness and paralysis.

There is no known cause and existing therapies are effective only for some.

The progress, severity and specific symptoms of MS in any one person cannot yet be predicted, but advances in research and treatment are moving closer to a world free of MS.

Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20-50, with at least two to three times more women than men being diagnosed with this disease.

MS affects more than 3.1 million people worldwide.

Natale Raimo, M.B.A., has been involved as a volunteer with the Long Island Chapter since 2005 as a committee member for the annual Spring into Awareness Luncheon and sat as the Marketing Chairperson for four years.

In 2009, after eight years in the corporate world, Natale jointed the National MS Society, and works directly with over 400 Walk MS and Bike MS teams and individual fundraisers to raise money and awareness about MS and the National MS Society, LI Chapter.

Raising Funds & Awareness St. James resident Dan Turturro and Stony Brook resident Byron Lane will attempt to run 130 miles on treadmills at Energy Fitness in St. James on Saturday, January 18th from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. to raise money for Friends of Karen, a tri-state non-profit organization that helps children and their families cope with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses.

They will work beat their last year run of 127.55 miles at the same gym.

While most people - even seasoned marathoners - could not conceive of running for more than one hour on a “dreadmill,” the pair will work together to meet the challenge.

“Think of the way your life is going right now,” Lane offers. “Pretend that tomorrow, you found out that your precious child was diagnosed with cancer or another life-threatening disease. Your life would change drastically and forever.

Friends of Karen picks up the slack so that families in this situation don’t have to worry about all of the little things that can drain precious time and energy – so they can focus solely on their child and their family.

Running on treadmills symbolizes their race to try to get everything done all at once. During our fundraiser, we will focus on running around for these families, just like

Friends of Karen does for their families.”

Lane, one of the most decorated ultrarunners in the country, started his running career 38 years ago.

Sponsored by The Runners’ Edge (Farmingdale) and Hammer Nutrition, he has won 47 ultramarathon races of 50 km or longer, is a three-time Age Group National

50-miler, and regularly runs five times per week. The 2013 fundraiser for Friends of Karen was Dan’s longest run ever. Until now.

The two men met at Energy Fitness two years ago and Byron has served as a very encouraging mentor to Dan. The two brainstormed a fundraising idea to bring some attention to a deserving charity and were directed to Friends of Karen, which has a Long Island office in Port Jefferson.

“We are pleased to be able to help support this important organization,” said 56 year-old Turturro. “No one is prepared for a life-threatening illness to strike their child. People going through this type of family crisis have enough to worry about. Friends of Karen provides the support that lets parents focus on what’s most important: their child.”

Friends of Karen provides emotional, financial and advocacy support for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families in order to keep them stable, functioning and able to cope. Since 1978, Friends of Karen has helped more Champion, and, in 2008, was the National Champion in than 12,700 children in the New York tri-state region. the 24-hour run.

In addition, Erica Seeger and Gabrielle Cosentino

wall can appear to recede, creating the illusion of space.

Go big with lighter and softer colors. In areas beyond the feature wall, use lighter and softer colors to make the space seem larger. Light blues and greens add significant light subtly to a room.

Coordinate your colors.

Stretch your space and maximize impact by using color to coordinate your rooms and decor. HGTV® HOME by SherwinWilliams offers precoordinated collections of color, paint and wallpaper.

The color palettes can be used to ensure that your walls, furniture and accessories help create a cohesive look.

Reflect upon something.

Placed opposite a window or side by side, mirrors can spread light throughout the room to make spaces feel larger. A tall mirror draws the eye up, making ceilings look taller. When

angled toward your room’s focal wall, a mirror can also create the illusion of depth.

Paint something unexpected. Think beyond your walls and consider painting your mailbox or address numbers on your home, a stairway banister or a piece of furniture.

Add a colorful punctuation point by transforming a bedroom nightstand bright blue or a desk chair in an unexpected orange.

Everything else in the room will appear larger.

“Clever use of color adds the illusion of space and injects personality into it as well. That’s what’s great about color; you can dramatically alter the look of a room while expressing yourself in a fun way,” Bromstad adds.

For additional inspiration and information on HGTV HOME by SherwinWilliams, visit www. sherwin-williams.com/ hgtv.

Fresh Air summers are filled with children running barefoot through the grass, gazing at starfilled skies or swimming for the first time. Join host families in and around the Suffolk County, area for our 138th summer and open your heart and home to a Fresh Air child!

Each summer, over 4,000 inner-city children visit suburban, rural and small town communities across 13 states from Virginia to Maine and Canada through The Fresh Air Fund’s Volunteer Host Family Program.

“Hosting provides our Fresh Air child an opportunity to experience new things, and gives our own children a chance to meet a new friend and share amazing moments together,” says Janine, a Fresh Air host.

The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, notfor-profit agency, has

provided free summer experiences to more than 1.7 million New York City children from low-income communities since 1877.

Fresh Air children are boys and girls, from six to 18 years old, who live in New York City. Children on first-time visits are six to 12 years old and stay for one or two weeks. Children who are reinvited by host families may continue

with The Fresh Air Fund through age 18 and can enjoy extended trips. Over 65 percent of all children are reinvited to stay with their host families, year after year.

For more information on hosting a Fresh Air child this summer, please contact Jacqueline Shapiro at 516.692.8662 or visit The Fresh Air Fund online at www.freshair.org.

( N A P S I ) — T h e C(NAPSI)—Making a small room appear larger can be as simple as using color creatively. To add some breathing room to a compact space, all you need are some colorful ideas.

“Color is one of the easiest, most affordable ways to transform the look and feel of a room,” says David Bromstad, HGTV® star and celebrity interior designer. “When used in a few well-chosen places, such as a feature wall or statement piece of furniture, color can have a big impact in a small space.”

Bromstad offers these color tips for transforming a space from tiny to airy: Create a focal point with paint. Paint a statement wall that draws attention away from the size of your space and toward something beautiful and vibrant. Bright or bold colors work well, as the
