Virtual Video

Ms. Jeanette Crawford’s 5th grade class from Our Lady of Lourdes School in West Islip took a virtual video conferencing field trip on Thursday, October 4th. They had the opportunity to meet author and illustrator,

Kelly Pulley, who read two of his stories to the class. Mr. Pulley’s books taught students about acceptance, being unique, teamwork, and art all at the same time. They learned that it is okay to be different and to appreciate what they have

been given. Students also learned how Mr. Pulley illustrations were created and had the opportunity to try one on their own. The fifth graders had a lot of fun and are excited to video conference with The Vanderbilt University Virtual School again!

Mrs. Dodd’s niece, Bettie Grinnell, and nephew, Arthur Field have provided direction as to her charitable legacy. “I was not surprised by my aunt’s wishes to donate to Good Samaritan. She was very generous through the years to various organizations and members of her family. Helen lived life to the fullest - traveling the world while managing family funds with a keen eye for investing. She met

She was a working, college educated and independent person during the depression. She saw first hand the devastating effects the

great depression had on her family,” said Mr. Fields. Mrs. Dodd had the insight to plan ahead to guarantee that her wishes to fund health care for our underserved community would be properly carried out. She believed in the mission of Good Samaritan Hospital and the hospital’s long-term future which is why she created a legacy gift to

DO YOU NEED A NIGHT OUT? jlynn@theneighbornewspapers.com

Catching Up By: Jamie Lynn Ryan Back in June, when I officially “retired” from dancing, I assumed that with this newfound free time would come the unintended benefit of being able to catch up – watching the hours of TV shows I never seemed to be home for, going through the ever-growing pile of magazines collecting on my desk, or perhaps even tackling a book or two. Well, here we are, four months later, and I have to say – even if I took an entire day off to do the aforementioned things, I would probably barely make a dent. What are we, four weeks into the new TV season? I would say, cumulatively, that

I have about 12 hours or so of unwatched episodes to catch up on. Not that there’s really any point, since one glance at the social media sites pretty much ruins any suspenseful plot twists. And the magazines… well they’re fairly outdated for the most part. Still entertaining, but the list of upcoming events tends to lose some impact when they have all already passed, wouldn’t you say? Books… well, let’s just say that the only time I have managed to read an entire book (at least, since leaving school) is if I take it with me on vacation. Because, let’s face it, the plot tends to lose something when there’s a three-month gap between chapters. It’s amazing that when you

subtract certain obligations from your life, there always seem to be about 20 more that immediately crop up to fill the void. It makes you wonder how it’s even possible to accomplish what you need to. But I suppose we do manage, somehow. We find the time for those things we truly want to do; and we manage to avoid those things we would rather push to the bottom of the list. Simple human nature. Not the most practical or rational of practices, but still – it is how most of us tend to conduct our lives. Perhaps we should all take a page out of one of those unread “self-help” books and adjust our schedules to fill the void with some free time.

WHOLESALE

symbol of their commitment to raise awareness of the destruction caused by drugs. This year, families can get involved by entering a contest to promote awareness in their neighborhoods and win a drug prevention grant for their schools. Families can enter Red Ribbon Week’s® contest to win a $1,000 grant for their school and a new iPad for their home. To participate in the contest families and students will decorate the front of their homes with this year’s message: “The Best Me Is Drug FreeTM.” Studies show that substance abuse risks lessen when parents talk to their children about the dangers of drugs, and that is the goal of this year’s contest: to encourage families to talk about prevention. Here’s how students and their families can enter to win $1,000 for their K-12 school and a new iPad: Students bring the Red Ribbon Week® message home by working alongside parents to decorate their front door, mailbox, fence, etc. with this year’s theme “The Best Me Is Drug Free™.” Take a photo with the family and their Red Ribbon Week® decoration, then upload to www.redribbon.org/contes t or www.facebook.com/RedRi bbonWeek by Nov. 2 (must be parents or 18+ to upload photos). The voting begins! Ask family and friends to vote

for your entry at www.redribbon.org/vote November 2nd-16th. Ten lucky winners from regions across the U.S. will win. Winners will be announced at events at their winning schools in December. “Students will once again take Red Ribbon Week’s® message of prevention home to their neighborhoods with this national contest,” said the NFP’s Volunteer President Peggy Sapp. “By decorating their homes together with this year’s Red Ribbon theme, families carry the message to their communities.” The nation’s oldest and largest drug prevention campaign reaches more than 80 million people nationwide. The DEA is cosponsoring this year’s national contest. “DEA is excited to partner with the National Family Partnership® on this contest that empowers communities to come together to talk about the drug problem,” said DEA Administrator Michele M. Leonhart. “Red Ribbon Week® is also when we honor DEA Special Agent Enrique ‘Kiki’ Camarena, who made the ultimate sacrifice to keep our communities safe.” Adds the NFP’s Peggy Sapp: “Take the Red Ribbon Week® pledge across America to help children grow up safe, healthy and drug free.” V i s i t www.redribbon.org/contes t for contest information.

and did it. I hope others can realize that ‘anything is possible.’ I learned early on that life is a journey; A Journey Four Paws had a lot of meaning for me on a personal level - taking the negatives that come our way in life and turning them into positives in each day no matter how bad it may be. I’ve learned so much from my dogs over the years and they give me so much love and ask for so little. We enjoy the outdoors and being together, so seeing Long Island from a walking perspective with them was a wonderful and rewarding experience. And to have raised some money for 2 very important organizations to me is a bonus,” said Irene Rabinowitz, owner of Barks-n-Bubbles Boutique. At ‘the end’ of her Journey there was a Pet Celebration event in Montauk, of Long Island, was also a pet festival with pet vendors, music, food, raffles, prizes for best HOWL-o-ween costumes and more. While donations for A Journey Four Paws are still coming in, Irene estimates to have raised a about two thousand dollars at this point, to be split and donated to the Long Island Chapter of the Arthritis Foundation and to Central Suffolk Paws a division of LI-Dog. Both beneficiaries were picked because they are close to Irene’s heart and because she suffers from Arthritis and the town in which she lives desperately needs a dog park. Central Suffolk Paws is working with the Town of Brookhaven to build a dog park, and the money donated will go towards building one in the near future. Irene is also turning 50 in the early part of 2013 and really wanted to mark her 50th year with a unique way to give back too!

People traveled from all over Long Island, upstate and New York City to Montauk on Monday, October 8th (Columbus Day) to cheer on Irene Rabinowitz, owner of Barks-n-Bubbles Boutique, and her dog Sydney at the tail end of their journey of walking 70-miles in four days to raise awareness and funds for two charitable organizations. A Journey Four Paws was Irene’s way of doing something to make a positive impact on getting a dog park built in her hometown in Selden, NY and to raise awareness about Arthritis - in which both her and her dog suffer from. But because of their daily long walks it helps keep them fit and the arthritis at bay. It was her personal journey to do this and had support from pet lovers and pet companies from all over the United States as well as Canada. “I feel great that I put my mind to something

Operation SPLASH


The Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (LICADD) is set to receive a $20,000 grant from the NYS Office of Substance Abuse Services to support its addiction services in Suffolk County, thanks to the efforts of NYS Assemblyman Bob Sweeney. Specifically, the grant funds the expansion of LICADD’s Start2Stop

but not as a violent or high-level offense. With a well publicized opiate crisis gripping Long Island and a documented upswing in impaired driving and boating, LICADD Executive Director Dr. Jeffrey Reynolds says support for Start2Stop comes at the perfect time. “I am grateful to Assemblyman Sweeney for

helping us make this program more accessible to local residents before their use of drugs and alcohol accelerates,” he said. “This proactive approach and timely intervention will help make Suffolk County a safer and healthier place.”

“Long Island continues to experience a number of well-publicized tragedies due to substance abuse. The Start2Stop program helps participants get control of their substance abuse problem before it escalates into a tragedy. While we need strong laws

to deal with the results of DWI and BWI incidents, it is far better to prevent those tragedies from happening in the first place. That’s what this grant is intended to do,” said Assemblyman Sweeney.

high-risk drinking. During the three-day conference, Stony Brook University representatives led by Jenny Hwang, PhD, Director of University Counseling, presented their progress in harm reduction and helping students make safer choices regarding alcohol use. The team conducted a presentation for their peer schools on “Think Again,”

a student-developed social norms campaign designed to inform the campus community of alcohol use on campus. Campus statistics show that students overestimate the percentage of their peers who are engaged in heavy or high-risk drinking. Since 2011, Stony Brook University has been a member of the National College Health

Campus improvement teams participated in strategysharing sessions on the subjects of “pre-gaming,” off-campus parties and other high-risk behaviors. According to statistics from the National Institute for Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, these high-risk behaviors

result in the death of approximately 1,800 college students across the nation each year and contribute to hundreds of thousands of injuries, sexual assaults and academic failures. Since joining the collaborative, Stony Brook has seen several positive improvements in student health and safety across campus, including an increase in Red Watch Band membership, Stony Brook’s bystander intervention program, and increased help-seeking behavior by students.

addition to bringing increased awareness of the fight against breast cancer, the event also provides much needed funds to continue the fight against breast cancer,” said Legislator Anker. All proceeds of the event will be donated to the Fortunato Breast Health Center at Mather Hospital.

Victory Day Held to kick off October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the event provided solidarity, hope, triumph and togetherness for all who have been touched by breast cancer.

A team of students, faculty, staff and administration from Stony Brook University joined similar teams from 31 other colleges and universities from across the country for three days in Washington D.C., to learn from and share with one another about improving the health of their students by reducing harms associated with

Improvement Project (NCHIP), a nationwide learning collaborative that seeks to combat high-risk drinking behavior on college campuses through data-driven, communitywide efforts involving several areas of the University. The goals are to increase effective education and prevention models, ensure enforcement of policies and laws, and early intervention for those at risk. “We’re seeing the impact of institutional commitment and thoughtful, systematic engagement of our students to help increase the health and safety of the campus community,” said Dr. Hwang. “It’s not about dumping information into students’
