THIS Year DO YOU Want To reverse Disease? Want To Lose Weight?

Feel Concerned You’re Locked Into Your Genes?

IF YOU THInk IT’S TOO LaTe TO CHanGe, reaD THe COmmenTS FrOm mY prOUD paTIenTS beLOW: The results I have achieved working with Dr. Dunaief have been quite remarkable. My primary goal was to reduce average blood pressure to acceptable levels.

This was accomplished in a little over 3 months.

Coincidentally I was able to reduce my overall cholesterol from 250 to 177 with a much improved LDL/HDL ratio in 4 months.

In addition I lost over 30 lbs and went from 24% body fat to 17.7%. I have some good days but mostly great days and I’m very happy with the results and look forward to even more improvement in the future.

—D.L., age 64

“My pain has subsided considerably. But, I must tell you that I don’t think I would have made it this far without your help. I was a mess when I first saw you, but you gave me a new sense of strength, new knowledge about nutrition and just a better regard for myself.” ~ Nurse Practitioner/ IBS and ulcerative colitis sufferer, age 62

“My cardiologist was so impressed with my results. By following Dr. Dunaief’s advice, I’ve been able to stop all three of my blood pressure medications. My heart palpitations, which were limiting my activities, have dramatically reduced in frequency, my energy levels have increased and I have lost 15 pounds in two months.” ~ Nurse, age 62 “I feel awesome after eating the diet, especially in the morning. I can’t believe how much has improved with such small changes. My cholesterol is normal, and my triglycerides dropped dramatically - almost 200 points! My blood pressure medication was stopped, yet my blood pressure is the best it has ever been.” ~ E.M., age 44

“…just wanted to share the…great news – I passed my fitness test and achieved my highest score ever! Thank you for all your support and help. You know how important this was for me.

I’m so pleased with the results.” ~ Military Surgeon, age 43

Fiber artist Carol Hummel (left) demonstrates a crochet technique to Jefferson’s Ferry resident Rosemarie Thompson, one of a team of residents, below, from Jefferson’s Ferry Lifecare Retirement Community.

Jefferson’s Ferry residents crochet for community fiber art project Although July is not exactly sweater weather, numerous residents of Jefferson’s Ferry Lifecare Retirement Community are busily crocheting so that come July, five trees on the grounds of the Long Island Museum at Stony Brook will be sporting brightly colored knitwear. The Jefferson’s Ferry residents are part of a team contributing to a crowd-sourced, crowd-pleasing yarn art installation, the Crocheted Tree Project. Developed by nationally known artist Carol Hummel, the Crocheted Tree Project will be installed in July for a two-week display, with a dedication July 19, 2015.

Recently, volunteers from the Three Village community, including the Jefferson’s Ferry group, gathered at the Long Island Museum for an informal workshop

in which Hummel teaches the crochet technique for this project. Between now and early July, the volunteers will produce the many yards of crochet needed for the installation.

“We take our commitment to the larger community very seriously,” said Jefferson’s Ferry resident Claire Donohue. “We’ve got the energy, enthusiasm and skills to lend a hand to just about any project that could use some help.

We’re very proud of our volunteerism and the impact we can make in the lives of our neighbors.” Joining Claire at the workshop were Jefferson’s Ferry residents Audrey Ansel, June Athanasian, Carol Babcock, Marilyn McKeon, Rosemarie Thompson, Thora Wagner and Margaret Wisniewski.

renowned artists’ collections coming to the Jazz Loft As The Jazz Loft in Stony Brook prepares for its opening this summer, donations of historic documents, photos, instruments and more continue to pour in from the archives of legendary figures in the jazz world.

Famed saxophonist Wally Kane is donating archives on loan from his illustrious career, including 40 years with Sesame Street, 12 years with Johnny Carson’s Tonight Show Band, all performances and recordings with the Sauter-Finnegan Orchestra since its inception in the 1950s and the NY Philharmonic. Kane, now 82, was part of the original house band organized by Joe Raposo for Sesame Street. His credits also include backing Roberta Flack on recordings and the original soundtrack to “The Wiz.” Musician Tom Manuel, president and curator of The Jazz Loft, already has a personal collection of over 9,000 items planned for the space. Many of the new items are from family members of jazz greats generously offering these treasured possessions for the public to enjoy. They include a gold-plated trumpet belonging to Ernie Royal who worked with the likes of Lionel Hampton and Count Basie, never released photos from his studio recording sessions and an original script sent to Royal from Louie Armstrong for a planned Broadway show.

Given the mission of The Jazz Loft to also advocate, educate and preserve this American-born culture, not only will it offer music education programing for children and adults, including those with special needs, but performances as well — with something for everyone from 5 to 95!

The Jazz Loft’s 6,000-square-foot space is located at 275 Christian Avenue, Stony Brook, and donations are being sought. Contact 631-463-6413 or visit www.wmho.org for full details.

Poetry

Celebrating Dickinson and Whitman for National Poetry Month

115806

In honor of National Poetry Month the Ward Melville Heritage Organization will host a live dramatic performance titled “Artists & Poets,” showcasing iconic American poets, Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman, at the Educational & Cultural Center, 97P Main St., in Stony Brook Village on Sunday, April 19, from 2 to 5 p.m. The event will feature Jean Linzee as Emily Dickinson and Darrel Blaine Ford as Walt Whitman.

A former Long Island biology teacher and world-traveled ornithologist, Ford not only has a striking physical resemblance to Walt Whitman but a personal affinity with him since childhood, when he was given a copy of “Leaves of Grass” and was “hooked ever since.” He has been recreating Whitman’s persona for over 30 years and continues to maintain his legacy today by visiting schools and libraries as the famous poet.

Linzee is a Yale graduate and has taught English and theater at The Stony Brook School for over 20 years.

Her experience includes not only teaching but also acting, directing and writing. She has conceived, written and performed in many of her own one-woman shows, as well as William Luce’s “The Belle of Amherst,” based

There will also be a free art exhibit on site including works by Pat Solan,

A call out to those who helped build the dream!

In 1939, Ward Melville presented his vision of creating a ‘living Colonial Williamsburg’ to the Stony Brook community. In 1940, his vision began to take shape, and the Stony Brook Village rehabilitation project was completed in 1941.

Now, 75 years later, the Ward Melville Heritage Organization (WMHO) wants to celebrate the individuals who brought Mr. Melville’s vision to life through an exhibit

of photos, artifacts and anecdotes of all those who worked on the project. From carpenters and electricians to landscapers and plumbers, these are the stories that made the dream come true. If you were one of these craftsmen, or know someone who was, please contact the WMHO at 631-751-2244 or email info@wmho.org to share your story.

Social Security facts As more baby boomers reach retirement age, they’re realizing the valuable role Social Security will play as a source of lifetime income. Claiming Social Security benefits can be far more complex than you may realize. Here are seven essential things about Social Security to understand as you determine how Social Security will fit into your overall retirement income strategy:

You also can choose to collect a spousal benefit initially and delay taking your own benefit, allowing your benefit amount to increase. Then you can claim your benefit when you turn 70.

There may be a long-term advantage if a higher earning spouse delays Social Security: If the higher earning spouse is older (or has more health concerns that could affect longevity), it may make sense to delay taking Social Security as long as possible up to age 70. When the spouse with the higher benefit dies, the surviving spouse will collect the higher benefit that was earned by the deceased spouse. The higher the deceased spouse’s benefit, the larger the monthly check for the surviving spouse.

You can start claiming benefits any time between ages 62 and 70: When you’re working and paying Social Security taxes (via your paycheck), you earn credit toward your Social Security retirement benefits.

She’s exploring what is shared between these two cancers as common targets for prevention and treatment.

Colon cancer provides a window that helps scientists and doctors understand the way cancer progresses.

“Our ability to study the premalignant to malignant progression in colorectal cancer has provided important basic knowledge of how cancers develop and taught us about how cells defend against tumorigenesis and how these systems fail,” she said.

Thompson went through some formative professional and personal experiences during graduate school that shaped her career. In the mid-1990s, she was studying an autoimmune disease in which she worked on an animal model

with a neuroimmunologist.

“I wanted to know that all this work I was doing with animals was contributing to the disease in humans,” she said.

Around the same time, her father, Jim Thompson, who owned and operated Angelo Tool Company, learned he had stage IV colorectal cancer. He was diagnosed in 1995, before major advances in colorectal cancer treatment. Her father received compassionate care use of a new therapy, enabling him to live for three more years, considerably longer than his initial two-month prognosis. If he had been diagnosed five years later and received a platinum-based regimen, he would have “gained even more time,” she said.

Thompson said she and her family struggle with the fact that

Thompson lives in Rocky Point with her husband, Michael Hogan, who is the vice president of life sciences at Applied DNA Sciences.

As for her work, Thompson believes her research might help physicians and their patients.

Her research aims to develop “diagnostic tests that help in prognosis” while identifying “patients that may achieve more benefit from aggressive chemotherapy,” she said.

Former home of Harper Bazaar editor receives national recognition

By Rita J. Egan

On January 27, 2015, the childhood home of a writer, editor and translator of the 1800s, Mary Louise Booth, was officially listed on the National Register of Historical Places. Members of the Yaphank Historical Society were anticipating the news since the New York State Board for Historic Preservation approved the house for submission in the beginning of December.

Tricia Foley, historian for the Yaphank Historical Society who is working on a book about Booth, said the house, located at the intersection of E. Main Street and Yaphank Avenue, was built in 1829. “It’s an early house of the period at the beginning of Yaphank’s development. In 1800 there were only 20 houses here and by the 1840s there were 200,” she said.

Foley said the Long Island ½-house is a one-story structure with an attic, two windows in the front and a door on the left.

This was so if the owners added an extension, the door could be in the middle, according to the historian. Foley said many of the ½-houses were custom built, and the Booth house features beaded edges around all the windows as well as fireplace mantles in the parlor and bedroom with an unusual detailed, carving style.

Its inclusion on the list means the historical society can apply for more grants and there’s increased protection against demolition in the future, according to Foley. The group hopes to apply for a grant in the near future for renovation. “There is a bay window in the kitchen, in the keep-

ing room, and when we get more funding we would like to remove it, because it’s not period appropriate. It was probably put on later in the 19th century or early 20th century,” the historian said.

An exhibit documenting Booth’s life, who was born in 1831, is on display at the house. The Yaphank native was one of the first female reporters for The New York Times and the author of “History of the City of New York.” Foley said this book was originally intended to be a school textbook, but once the publisher realized just how significant the work was, it was released for public distribution.

Booth was also the founding editor of Harper’s Bazaar when the magazine started as a weekly in 1867 and worked with the publication for 22 years until her death in 1889, according to Foley. The historian said the editor did her best to educate women about the pressing subjects of the era. “She was a suffragist and abolitionist, and she quietly brought in women’s issues into the different features and columns every week to keep women apprised of what was happening. She didn’t express her opinions, but she let people know very quietly,” she said.

While Booth remained objective when it came to the articles she published, outside her office, the editor and her friend Susan B. Anthony were involved in working toward equal pay for teachers. The former Yaphank resident was also part of the Women’s Suffrage movement, and she was the secretary of the 1855 Women’s Rights Convention in Saratoga Springs. The writer and editor was considered an abolitionist as well, and during her research, Foley

found that Abraham Lincoln sent Booth a letter for her efforts in the Union cause.

The president was impressed by the writer’s personal work as well as inspired by a book she translated from French to English called “Uprising of a Great People” by Count Agénor de Gasparin.

Foley said Booth, who during her lifetime translated over 40 books from French to English, was also involved in the Statue of Liberty transaction due to her translating and networking abilities. The translator introduced the statue’s sculpture, Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, to key players in New York City such as bankers and government officials. The historian said Booth showed a gift for language at a young age. After she and her family moved from Yaphank to Williamsburg, Brooklyn, when she was 14 years old, the future translator taught Latin classes as a teenager and also attended a French academy to practice conversational French. “She had such a gift for language.

She picked up conversational French very easily,” Foley said.

The historian said she isn’t surprised that Booth’s childhood home, which is the last remaining residence of her lifetime, was recognized on the register considering her work, which influenced the country and New York State history. The house, which was originally located on E. Main Street across from where it stands today, had various owners throughout the years until it became the property of the Kinney family after World War II. When

the family donated the house to Suffolk County Historic Services in 1998, it was moved to its current location, and the Yaphank Historical Society became the steward of the home, according to Foley.

The public can visit the Mary Louise Booth Childhood Home Sunday afternoons in July and August or by appointment. For more information, visit www. yaphankhistorical.org or call 924-3401.

A biblical excursion at the CMPAC

By Charles J. Morgan

114630

There are two ways that “Jesus Christ Superstar,” currently in production at the CMPAC, may be the subject of a critique: the theatrical and the biblical. The work of Tim Rice (lyrics) and Andrew Lloyd Webber (music), who gave the theatrical world “Evita” and “Phantom of the Opera,” it is a rock opera with no recitatives — all song and some ancillary choreography.

Brilliantly arranged live music, actually in the pit, featured Matthew W. Surico directing and on keyboard, backed by Danny Passadino on second board, Diana Fuller and Lauren Carroll on guitars, Rob Curry on bass, Jacob Krug on percussion, John Dumlao on violin with Jared Shaw on drums, Kevin Merkel on horn and the skilled fingers and embouchure of Gary Golden on trumpet. This crew had it all, superbly rehearsed, musically overwhelming; Surico had culled top talent.

Director Danny Amy had the leading role of Jesus of Nazareth. Tall and imposing with a lyrical tenor voice, he dominated the enemies and followers with gentility consonant with that of the Nazarene.

Two key roles were held by Jim Sluder as Judas and Debbie Hecht as Mary Magdalene. Sluder brought out the purely earthbound fanaticism. His intense drive to have Jesus proclaim himself as an earthly ruler will lead him to the betrayal. Sluder’s high-pitched intensity had him truly “eating up the scenery.” Hecht’s role was problematic. There is a scholarly trend currently that puts her extremely “close” to Jesus.

Her plangent and echoing voice was near rapturous and brought off the humanity of Jesus, which was the essence of Rice and Webber’s efforts.

Four other roles were critical: Annas, played by Ralph D’Ambrose, Caiaphas

by John DiGiorgio, King Herod by Marc Ausset and Pontius Pilate by Carl Tese.

D’Ambrose was the mocking, teasing enemy of Jesus, a part he carried out with detailed efficiency. DiGiorgio, costumed in red with gold-tipped staff revealed a voice that approached a deadly basso at times and brought out his authority with booming, stentorian menace. In contradistinction

to the others, Ausset captured the deviant, flighty Herod in a spangled costume and even danced with his female courtiers in a number designed to look like a Moulin Rouge group doing the Galop Infernal. Tese had a near basso voice that he used as an accent to his proclamations. He quite ably evinced the dangers of the middle-of-theroad lack of decision that marks Pontius Pilate’s fatal pronouncement.

In Act I, Hecht’s “I Don’t Know How to Love Him” was a relief from the raucous song and dance of the tormentors and followers, yet it evinced a deep sincerity and that underlying attraction that perhaps is attributed to the Magdalene without biblical evidence. “Pilate’s Dream” by Tese gave the audience a clear picture of Pilate’s hesitancy and his fear. Annas, Caiaphas, priests and the chorus perform “This Jesus Must Die,” a pounding, roaring declaration that made known the desires of the Sanhedrin more than obvious.

Act II is a passion play. The “Last Supper” made no effort to emulate da Vinci but was neatly executed with “Do This in Memory of Me,” outstripping the meaning of the first Eucharist. Ironically Webber’s artful tendency to use a rock cum Latin beat still paid off here. The confrontation of Christ with Pilate was done well except for the famous “What Is Truth?” which was delivered almost in passing when it deserved more of a showcasing.

Choreography by Jennifer Amy was conservative but effective. Set design by Danny Amy was very impressive. The dust and stones of first-century Jerusalem were done in detail with even an upstage center exit that gave a true three-dimensional air.

Intricate lighting was the work of David Serrecchia. He played it suggestively with head spots on Jesus looking like a halo.

The finale was handled by the orchestra in a number entitled “John 19:41.” With Surico’s talent handling this one, it had all the sonority of a typical full-blast finale.

The CM Performing Arts Center, 931 Montauk Highway, Oakdale, will present “Jesus Christ Superstar” through April 26. Tickets range from $20 to $29.

Winners of self-portrait show announced The Huntington Arts Council recently announced the winners of its latest exhibit, a self-portrait show titled “I See Me.” Juried by Lynn Rozzi, director of the Firehouse Plaza Art Gallery at Nassau Community College, the “I See Me” prospectus requested artists to respond to the challenge of sharing their interpretation of questions and statements behind self-portraiture: “Who are you? How do you see yourself? Let everyone in on your personal vision of you. Self-portraits rule the day!” The response, reflected in the exhibition of works, consists of a diverse mix of media including but not limited to oil, digital photo, watercolor, graphite/ gouche, ink and pastels.

Participating artists include Anu Annam, Christopher Arvans, Robyn Bellospirito, Mark Belton, David Benson, Pamela Best, Marlene Bezich, Elizabeth Cassidy, Beth Costello, Katherine Criss, Judith Davidson, Jessica Dayan, Emily Eisen, Paul David Elsen, Jessica Faro, Jim Finlayson, Nicole Franz, Susan Geffken Burton, William Grabowski, Donna Grossman, Dan Guido, Kirsten Hadjoglou, Rodee Hansen, Samantha Hernandez, Sofie Hoff, Lori Horowitz, Caroline Isacsson, Kate Kelly, Lauren Miceli, Margaret Minardi, Denis Ponsot, Robin Rosen-O’Leary, Lauren Ruiz, Jim Scovel, Constance Sloggatt Wolf, Jackie Stevens, Janice Sztabnik, Bobbie Turner, Tracy Vaccarino-Guzzardi, Chuck Von Schmidt, Pamela Waldroup, Lois V. Walker, Randy Weisbin and Fahiym Williams.

“‘I See Me’ employs the very interesting and up-to-the-minute concept ... The Selfie ... with the theme of self-portraits. And it seems to have touched the funny bone of a lot of artists who had a really good time picturing themselves in interesting, psychologically insightful and incredibly artful ways. This is a show not to be missed,” said Linda Louis, a member of the HAC board of directors and exhibition committee.

William Grabowski captured first place for his digital photo, “Past Tense.”

Beth Costello garned second place for “No Language Barriers Here,” ink/oil pastel/paper on panels, and third place went to Margaret Minardi for her “Self Portrait,” colored pencil.

Awards of excellence were given to Marlene Bezich for “Under Cover Artist #1,” oil; Donna Grossman for “When One Door Closes,” oil/door panel; Jessica Dayan for “Mirror,” oil/linen; and Mark Belton for his untitled self-portrait, acrylic/canvas.

“I See Me” will be on display in the Main Street Gallery through April 27, 2015. The gallery hours are Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturdays from noon to 4 p.m. For more information, call 631-271-8423 or visit www. huntingtonarts.org.

Planning your unique vegetable garden

By EllEn BarcEl

It will soon be time to plant your vegetable garden. Do you sometimes feel that you plant the “same old, same old?”

The same tomatoes? The same green beans? If so, why not try some really unique veggies along with the traditional ones? Some say they’re ugly while others call them cute. They’re the veggies that differ from the norm. Here’s a sampling, but you can find lots more in all the seed catalogues that are arriving.

Cauliflower

When you think of cauliflower, you usually think of a snowy white head of florets surrounded by green leaves. But, have you considered Graffiti Hybrid, which has purple florets, or Cheddar Hybrid, which is the color of cheddar cheese and a good source of vitamin A. A really unique looking cauliflower is Veronica Romanesco Hybrid, which has a green head, and a sweet nutty flavor that is milder than most cauliflowers.

The florets are spiraled and resemble a bunch of hens and chicks. Yes, I really want to try this one myself.

Radishes

Most radishes have a red skin and a white interior. This fast-growing crop likes cool weather, so plant early for a spring crop or late in summer for a fall crop. But a really unique radish, Watermelon, reverses the colors. It has a white and green skin and pinkish-red interior. It grows bigger than most — two to four inches. The flavor is said to be mild with a bit of sweetness.

Pumpkins

Nothing says autumn like pumpkins, whether for pies or jack-o’-lanterns. But if you want to grow some eye-catchers, consider any one of a number of bumpy pumpkins. There’s Red Warty Thing, Goosebumps Hybrid, Galeux d’Eysines and Knucklehead Hybrid. Yes, they’re edible, but these eerie pumpkins are ideal to be turned into Halloween jack-

o’-lanterns, warty faces and all. Tiny, smooth-skinned pumpkins include Jack Be Little, which is so small it fits in the palm of your hand. If you’re planning on entering a contest for the biggest, try Prizewinner Hybrid, which has been known to reach up to 400 pounds.

corn and Golden Detroit, a pale orange beet. Read your gardening catalogues and try at least one or two unique veggies this year.

Tomatoes

Say tomato and most people will think of the round, orangy-red fruit that goes perfectly with bacon and lettuce to form a BLT sandwich. But, tomatoes, like so many other fruits, come in different colors such as yellow — Yellow Pear and Lemon Boy Hybrid — or blue — Indigo Blue Beauty and Indigo Apple. Tomato sizes range from tiny to enormous. Ugly Ripes are wrinkled but delicious.

Yes, there are many other veggies and fruits that have varieties that differ from the norm. There’s bicolored

Redshirt junior defender Maegan Meritz scooped a game-high five ground balls, and Leahy tallied three ground balls. Meritz, Yevoli and junior attack Taylor Ranftle caused two turnovers apiece.

This was the first meeting between the two teams, but Stony Brook’s defense has held opponents to single-digit goals 31 times in 34 games and in 13 of 14 games this season.

Ohlmiller previously tallied six points against the University of Notre Dame on March 10 and at the University of Florida March 17. She has recorded at least one point in her first 14 collegiate games.

“I don’t really fear the big moment,” the freshman attack said. “It’s more about adrenaline for me. These big games are way too exciting for me not to be a part of them.”

Ohlmiller is the league’s top rookie for the fift h time this season. Murphy and Meritz were also named Offensive and Defensive Player of the Week, respectively, by the America East.

Rubino jumped to fourth in school history with 176 career points. She passed Claire Petersen who scored 174 points from 2012-13 and Demmianne Cook, who tallied 173 points from 2012-13.

Rubino is now fift h in program history with 58 career assists.

“We made her purely an offensive player, and she responded with a goal and four assists,” Spallina said of Rubino’s play, putting her in a strictly offensive role because of a lower body injury. “That kid has the heart of a lion. If there is one player who shows what we’re all about, she’s it.

She’s a special kid. I told our kids downstairs, `You better enjoy every second playing with a kid like that. They don’t come often.’ She’s the real deal.”

Stony Brook can clinch hosting rights and at least a share of the America East regular season championship for the third straight year with a win over the University of Maryland, Baltimore County Friday.

First draw in Baltimore is set for 4 p.m.

Baseball completes sweep of UMBC Seawolves bang out 11 hits and get solid out start from Ryley MacEachern, who helped combine with two others for the shutout The Stony Brook baseball team (1611, 9-2 AE) earned its second straight America East Conference series sweep after Sunday afternoon’s 6-0 victory over the visiting University of Maryland, Baltimore County (14-13, 4-5 AE) at Joe Nathan Field.

The Seawolves got a solid pitching performance by sophomore right-handed pitcher Ryley MacEachern, who went 6.2 innings, allowing no runs on three hits, striking out four to earn his first victory of the season. Stony Brook also handed UMBC starter Matt Chanin his first loss of the season and chased him in the fourth inning after scoring three

runs on six hits.

Altogether, the Seawolves collected 11 hits, including three by freshman infielder Andruw Gazzola and a pair by senior infielder Cole Peragine.

“UMBC was a very hot team coming in — having won 10 of their last 11 games,” Stony Brook head coach Matt Senk said. “We knew we had our work cut out for us. We knew that it was going to take a big weekend for us to get where we need to be. That is exactly what the guys did. I’m very proud of them.”

Stony Brook scored one run in the second, third, fourth and fifth inning to build a lead that proved to be enough, as a pitching staff of MacEachern, freshman Kevin Kernan and freshman Teddy Rodliff combined to toss a four-hit shutout.

Sunday’s shutout was the third of the season for the Seawolves’ pitchers and the second of the weekend, as Stony Brook also blanked UMBC, 8-0, in game one on Saturday and also shut out Nich-

olls State University, 6-0, in the seasonopener back on Feb. 13.

MacEachern had a no-hitter going, but lost it with two outs in the fifth inning of Sunday’s game.

Junior infielder Johnny Caputo has hit safely in 12 of his last 13 games.

Gazzola, sophomore infielder Jeremy

Giles and junior outfielder Jack Parenty have each hit safely in the last four games.

Stony Brook hosted Long Island University’s Brooklyn campus on Wednesday at Joe Nathan Field before hitting the road for the next seven games. Results of the Wednesday matchup were not available by press time.

Sallen’s one-hitter caps off sweep of Hartford For the third consecutive game, the Stony Brook softball team (16-12, 5-1 America East) finished off a shortened victory, defeating the University of Hartford, 12-0, in six innings via the run rule.

Junior pitcher Jane Sallen tossed a one-hitter and senior outfielders Bria Green and Lauren Kamachi hit threerun homers to cruise to victory.

“We played really well today and Jane gave us a terrific effort in the circle,” Stony Brook head coach Megan Bryant said. “We had a great approach this weekend and it was nice to see a lot of people step up for us.”

Green set the tone with a three-run homer in the first inning. It was her third of the series and league-leading 14th of the season. That was all the run support needed for Sallen.

The Seawolves outscored the Hawks 36-3 in the series, and for the second

game in a row, eight of the nine Seawolves starters recorded a hit.

Junior catcher Alexandra Pisciotta recorded a team-high three hits from the leadoff spot.

Kamachi, junior Kellie Reynolds, sophomore Lexie Shue and freshman Chelsea Evans each added two hits.

Shue’s hit streak is now at eight games.

Sallen allowed just a hit and walk over six innings. Her defense stood behind her and record 16 of the 18 outs.

Green went 8-for-17 with three home runs and nine RBIs in five games last week, earning her America East Player of the Week honors for the second week in a row.

The Seawolves looked to keep the ball rolling when Stony Brook hosted Fairfield University in a doubleheader on Wednesday, but results were not available by press time.

Earth Day Read Keeping the Earth beautiful begins with kids, says activist and author David Cuellar. A 2001 study found an average of 334,271 pieces of plastic per square mile in the northern Pacific Ocean. The middle of the Pacific Ocean holds a stationary garbage heap about twice the

size of Texas that goes unnoticed.

Cuellar is trying to change that.

In his short children’s story, “Plastic Island,” Cuellar stresses the importance of keeping the environment clean. Pollution affects all living beings, from a boy who plays the f lute to an eagle that f lies in the sky.

Cuellar believes that Mother Nature has done her part, so it’s time for humankind to do ours.

While on a hiking trip in Middletown, California, Cuellar first learned of garbage patches in the ocean from a fellow hiker. “My first reaction was disbelief,” Cuellar said, “But after researching it, I realized the truth. I saw the vortex in the ocean as the Earth doing its part to gather up our mess.”

Everyone can contribute to the beautification of Earth. Kids, teens, adults, CEOs and even members of the United Nations have a part.

Cueller hopes to spread awareness of the garbage patches in the ocean and to help raise more environmentally conscious kids.

“Plastic Island,” distributed by Trafford Publishing and available on www.amazon.com, is the perfect read for Earth Day.

Our schools prepare children for life’s journey.

Your child is nurtured in a unique community environment where vital interaction with other children, families, and the parish reinforces enduring moral beliefs and a respect for others. Your child also gains the knowledge, skills, and self-esteem for future success in an innovative setting where academic rigor is enhanced by an array of cutting-edge learning resources.

‘When Spring Comes’ by Maizie from Imagination Pre-school in Stony Brook

On the Wings of a Butterfly

by Clement Jeung, age 10, Port Jefferson

On the wings of a butterfly are the delicate, intricate designs of different colors, the light shimmering off its beautiful wings, The wings of a butterfly, so fragile, and delicate, but so vital to a butterfly’s existence, The wings help them soar, fly to places never dreamed of before, giving beauty to life, All of the colors, reflecting off the sun’s light, creating a faint rainbow, unable to catch a glimpse, The wings are God’s beautiful creations, helpingfly from flower to flower, collecting nectar, like Girl Scouts selling cookies, The wings flutter to a stop, landing on a flower in a girl’s hair, her reaching her finger for the butterfly, failing to grasp its majestic wings,

EARTH DAY OPEN HOUSE Saturday, April 25th 9:30 to 12:30 Enjoy special Earth Day activities!

There’s a reason Play Groups has been in continuous operation for seven decades. It’s because we offer young children a warm and nurturing learning environment in which to grow – cognitively, emotionally, socially and physically – and we do it with attention to each child’s unique learning style.

Come learn about our preschool (age 2 to pre-K) and summer camp (ages 21/2 through 7). Let us show you how we continuously transform our curriculum and update our resources to keep pace with today’s world, while retaining the joy of “learning through play” that serves children so well.

Join us for an EARTH DAY celebration with eco-friendly crafts and lots of fun. Stay to dig, climb, ride, mix and build in our 12 outdoor learning centers!

The majestic creatures migrating, traveling as one, leaving no one behind, The flutter of the butterflies blocks out the sun’s light, turning the day into night, light into darkness,

Accredited • NYS Licensed

The wings of butterflies, the anatomy mind blowing if touched, it harms the creature, ending its life, The owl eye patterns hoot and holler, looking at everything around, scaring predators, All colors of wings fluttering and flying in synchronization, flapping together as one, Although some species of butterflies are the same, each wing is unique in some way, just like us!
