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, not-for-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

Think Sunshine City. Children on firsttime 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.

Easing Into The New Year By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

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.

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.

promotion and disease 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 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.

Naturally Lowering Cholesterol (NAPSI)—If living a healthier life is your cup of tea, you may be interested in an easy way to improve your health—using the natural antioxidant powers of tea.

Almost half of all Americans are overweight and have dangerously high levels of cholesterol.

Heart attacks are still the No. 1 killer in the U.S. The problem is that high cholesterol and your risk

may be greater than you think.

According to American Heart Association guidelines, the acceptable level of “bad cholesterol” is 30 percent lower than it used to be only a few years ago. This means that millions of Americans, including those who never dreamed they were at risk, now are.

Fortunately, there are natural, nonprescription

alternatives for lowering cholesterol. For example, heart-healthy products such as TeaFlavin, an all-natural, caffeine-free capsule made from tea extract, contain as much cholesterol-fighting power as 35 cups of green tea.

For more information on TeaFlavin, visit www. teaflavin.com or call (800) 876-4332.

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 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 user-friendly site provides Long Islanders with comprehensive health

The event was put together as part of the physical education curriculum to encourage students to participate in physical activities, while also learning about arts and culture.

Scholarship Expansion Gershow Recycling has announced that it is expanding its scholarship program to Riverhead High School, providing more one-time, $1,000 scholarships to graduating seniors from Long Island and the metropolitan New York area. The program is now available to all local school districts in which Gershow’s facilities are located.

For the past 10 years, Gershow has offered a one-

time, $1,000 scholarship to a graduating senior from Patchogue-Medford High School, Bellport High School and Longwood High School. Last year, the company extended that opportunity for graduating seniors from the following high schools: Bay Shore High School, Walt Whitman High School in South Huntington, Lindenhurst High School, Valley Stream Central High School, Freeport High

School, Herricks High School in New Hyde Park; and Frederick Douglass Academy in Brooklyn.

Students must pursue a degree in engineering or environmental sciences when entering college in order to be eligible for the scholarship.

Started in 1964 by Sam Gershowitz, Gershow Recycling began as a two-man operation with a tractor and trailer, a boom truck and the first

portable car flattener. Now with its second generation carrying on its legacy, Gershow employs over 750 people on Long Island and the metropolitan New York area, contributing millions of dollars to the local economy, while helping to preserve the region’s environment.

2014 marks the tenth consecutive year that Gershow has offered the scholarship. “Since 1964, Gershow Recycling

has been leading the way in preserving Long Island’s environment.

This scholarship reflects our company’s goals of environmental conservation and the need to encourage the pursuit of advanced degrees to enhance our region’s and nation’s competitiveness,” said Kevin Gershowitz, President of Gershow Recycling.

Students who are interested in applying

for the scholarship may contact their respective high schools.

Gershow has nine locations throughout Long Island and the metropolitan New York area: Brooklyn, New Hyde Park, Freeport, Valley Stream, Lindenhurst, Huntington Station, Bay Shore, Medford and Riverhead.

On January 7th, the Town Board voted unanimously to approve an extension to waive all adoption fees at the Brookhaven Animal Shelter until June 30th. The action was taken by the Board to encourage residents to adopt a pet at the shelter, which currently houses approximately 110 dogs and 30 cats. The original resolution to waive the fees was adopted in June 2013 and extended to December 31st by the Town Board in October 2013.

“Waiving the adoption fees has helped to reduce the number of animals at the shelter, so it made very good sense to extend it,” said Supervisor Romaine.

“Overpopulation creates

a severe hardship for the animals and a burden on the staff and volunteers.

It also increases the cost of care and feeding.

Extending the waiver is a ‘win-win’ for everyone. It makes adoptions free to all residents, saves the Town money and provides a more humane environment for the animals at the shelter.”

Normal adoption fees range from $5.00 for a dog that has been neutered or spayed by the shelter; $10.00 for a dog that has been previously neutered or spayed; $10.00 for a cat that has been previously neutered or spayed and $0 for a cat that has been neutered or spayed by the shelter. The cost to spay or neuter a cat is normally

$35.00 and $40.00 for a dog. The Town will also continue to issue free licenses for adopted dogs.

Those who are interested in adopting a pet should visit the Brookhaven Animal Shelter and Adoption Center located at 300 Horseblock Road in Brookhaven. The center is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (closed Wednesdays), Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. For more information, please call the Brookhaven Animal Shelter and Adoption Center at 631.286.4940 or visit www.brookhaven.org/ animalshelter.

Big, Colorful Ideas For Small Spaces 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.

Tis the season to bestow gifts and do unto others.

High school students from Eastern Suffolk BOCES (ESBOCES) Centereach Academic Center (CAC) accomplished both. They visited the elementary students at Sayville Academic Center (SAC) and bestowed upon them two handmade life-sized wooden reindeer. These beauties were constructed in Steven Braverman’s Career Development and Occupational Studies (CDOS) class at CAC. The students learned to saw, sand, paint, and use a variety of tools and applications.

After bestowing gifts, it was time to “do unto others” which the high school happily did when they assisted the elementary students at the SAC Holiday Boutique.

Curriculum Teachers Kathy Martin, SAC, and

Tina Zimmerman, CAC, worked together on this collaborative project that benefitted both the high school and elementary school students. Tina said, “At Centereach Academic Center, the high school students learned what it would be like to work in a store which included all the jobs and responsibilities that go along with it like advertising, customer relations, working as a cashier, and wrapping gifts.” The knowledge and skills the students learned aligned with the new State CDOS Standards.

With their newly learned skills, the CAC high school students assisted the youngsters at the holiday boutique. Tina, Patchogue-Medford UFSD; Kevin, Bay Shore UFSD; Marcos, William Floyd UFSD; Michael, Hempstead UFSD; Regina, Brentwood UFSD; Paskeo, Longwood

CSD; and Zack, William Floyd UFSD, helped the students pick out gifts for their friends and family members.

The high school students had the opportunity to participate based on their behavior and grades and were able to earn CDOS hours.

According to the NYS CDOS Commencement Credential, students must successfully complete at least 216 hours of career and technical education coursework and/or workbased learning experiences.

At least 54 hours must be in work-based learning experiences. SAC staff donated all the gifts so the elementary students could have gifts for their family members.

All the students said they felt a sense of pride being able to assist the young children with their holiday choices.

The Long Island Maritime Museum today announced that, beginning February 9th continuing through March 16th, we will be hosting “Winter Sundays” in the museum library from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m.

The lecture series, offered free of charge, will include guest speakers covering a variety of maritime topics to include: Chronicling the region’s shellfish industry, America’s Naval War, and an environmental history of the barrier beaches of

Fire Island.

Seating is limited, and guests are encouraged to register in advance. For a complete listing of lecture topics, please visit the museum’s web page at www.limaritime.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

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.

Morning Of Destruction SUFFOLK ZONE 5 - 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.

Don’t Text And Drive (NAPSI)—There are steps parents and others can take to drive down the dreadful rate of traffic injuries and fatalities. An estimated 6,000 people are killed and 500,000 people are injured annually because someone was texting, e-mailing or talking on a mobile phone while driving.

The Facts Dr. Joel Haber, a clinical psychologist and LG Text Ed council member, explains that for teens, texting and driving is an even bigger problem than it is for adults.

First, kids text more.

Texting is their preferred mode of communication.

According to a recent LG Text Ed survey conducted

by LG Mobile phones, while half of all teens admit to texting while driving, only 4 percent of parents are aware of this.

Second, teens are inherently novices when it comes to driving. They especially need to focus on the road to compensate for any lack of driving skill or experience.

Third, teens can literally be driven to distraction.

If a teen is caught up in a dramatic or tense texting conversation, it could be too enticing to focus on the phone instead of the road.

The Stats The U.S. government’s official website on distracted driving, www. distraction.gov, cites multiple statistics on the dangers of this careless behavior: • Using a mobile phone while driving, whether it’s handheld or hands-free, delays a driver’s reactions as much as having a blood alcohol concentration at the legal limit of .08 percent.

• Driving while using a mobile phone reduces the amount of brain activity associated with driving by 37 percent.

• Drivers who use handheld devices are four times as likely to get into crashes serious enough to injure themselves as those who don’t.

• An estimated 11 percent of drivers are talking on cell phones while driving at any point during the day.

The Steps

1. Impress upon teens the need to not text or talk on the phone while driving by not doing so yourself. Beyond providing an example of responsible behavior, this creates a safer driving environment.

2. Explain to your teens the seriousness of the situation and let them know that it is important to have a plan in order to avoid temptation.

For example, have them always keep their cell phone off while driving or in the backseat out of reach to avoid distraction completely.

3. Learn more from the experts in mobile technology at LG by visiting the company’s LG Text Ed website, www. lgtexted.com. As part of its Text Education campaign, LG offers insights and solutions on how to avoid possibly harmful behaviors such as distracted driving. In order to keep distractions to a minimum, LG encourages all drivers to never text while driving and to always use a handsfree Bluetooth device when operating a vehicle.

(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 “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.”

Common Car Seat Mistakes Parents Should Avoid (NAPSI)—Parents of young children need to be better educated in order to avoid making potentially dangerous safety mistakes when they are on the go.

The Problem Automobile crashes remain a leading cause of death for children and it’s important that parents consistently and correctly use the appropriate car seat to keep their child passengers safe.

Many parents may be unknowingly endangering their children as three out of four car seats are not used correctly, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Some Answers Busy parents and caregivers may be tempted by safety shortcuts when transporting children. AAA offers simple reminders to protect parents’ most precious cargo.

Shortcut: “I’m only driving a mile from home, so my son doesn’t need to be secured in his car seat since it’s a short trip.”

Reminder: You should buckle up properly on every trip—no matter the distance—especially since most crashes occur close to home.

Shortcut: “I’m picking up several kids after soccer practice and I’m going to put my 8-year-old daughter in the front seat so all the children can fit into the car.”

Reminder: All children under age 13 are safest when riding in the backseat and properly restrained in a car seat, booster seat or seat belt.

Shortcut: “We will be driving more people in our car than we have seat belts.

Since it’s a short trip, it’s not a big deal for someone to ride on another person’s lap.”

Reminder: It’s never safe to ride on another person’s lap. Each passenger should be properly restrained on every trip.

Shortcut: “My son is 10 years old and 4’6” tall. He’s big enough to use a seat belt now.”

Reminder: The American Academy of Pediatrics now recommends children continue to use beltpositioning booster seats until they are 4’9” and the seat belt fits properly.

Help For Parents Fortunately, AAA experts are available to help parents with car seat installation.

Visit an AAA club, go to www.seatcheck.org or call (866) SEATCHECK [(866) 732-8243].

(NAPSI)—Granite countertops are the most popular option available when it comes to kitchen or bathroom remodeling.

They look great, they’re durable, but they can also cost thousands of dollars.

Granite requires special care and attention because it’s a natural stone. Here are a few tips to help you protect your investment:

• Seal your countertops: According to the Marble Institute of America, an industry group, granite countertops should be sealed so that the stone is more resistant to dirt and spills. Check with the manufacturer or retailer about the best kind of sealer to use on food preparation areas.

• Be careful what

you clean with: Never use ammonia—based products-or cleaners containing vinegar, lemon or orange—on your granite countertops. Avoid abrasive cleaners such as dry or soft cleansers. Don’t use cleaning products that contain acid such as bathroom, grout, or tub and tile cleaners. Specialty granite cleaners can be

used, but they can be expensive. There’s a way to stretch your dollars.

• Mind your budget: JAWS Glass & Hard Surface Cleaner (www.jawscleans. com) cleans granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, glass and even your flat-screen TV. It’s also non-toxic and costs less than most other cleaners because each

JAWS product is actually two bottles in one. (The cartridge refill is attached to the bottle.)

There are also some other basic preventive measures you can take to protect your granite countertops: • Use coasters: Place a coaster under all glasses, particularly those containing alcohol or

citrus juices that can etch or dull the surface of many stone countertops.

• Use trivets or mats: They’ll protect your granite countertop from hot dishes and help avoid scratches.

Granite countertops can really add spark to a kitchen or bathroom.

Proper care will keep them looking beautiful.
