By: Jamie Lynn Ryan I don’t get it. Why is it that, more and more, parents insist on taking their young children to movies that they have no business seeing at hours of the night when they would be better served settling in for a bedtime story?

Nearly every movie that I’ve seen in the last few months has featured the background noise of a screaming, crying young child, pretty much from the opening credits onward. Seriously folks?

My last movie outing had to be the best (or worst, if we’re being literal) by far. No sooner had we settled in to watch the previews when a little girl – who couldn’t have been more than three or four years old mind you – began rocking back and forth in her chair, kicking the seat in front of her (you guessed it… mine) and whining about how she wanted to get ice cream, RIGHT NOW. This little performance continued for the next three hours. Seriously.

At one point, I was startled by what I thought was something crawling on me. But no, it was the tiny hand of the child, attempting

jlynn@theneighbornewspapers.com www.facebook.com/instepwithjamie

to catapult herself over the seat next to me into my row. This was shortly followed by the pitter-patter of little feet running back and forth down the aisles, all the while singing at the top of her lungs.

Now, don’t get me wrong.

Children are adorable and cute and all that – just not at a 10:30 movie screening of a film that clearly only the parental units were interested in seeing. And the “adults” who I assume were with her for supervision seemed unfazed by it all, simply staring straight ahead at the screen, paying no mind to the dozens of dirty looks from those in the surrounding seats. The only admonishment was the occasional, “Now if you want ice cream, you better be good honey!” Good? Honey?!

It was at this point that I looked around for a hidden camera, convinced I must have been a part of the latest episode of “What Would You Do?” or some other prank show. Because, truly, there was no way that two people could be that inconsiderate of an entire movie theater full of people, right? Apparently wrong.

At a certain point, my exasper-

ation turned to anger, enough so that I turned around and snapped, “Are you kidding me right now?

Ever heard of a babysitter?” That seemed to quiet things down momentarily, as the two women just stared blankly back and halfheartedly told the child to sit down and behave. That lasted for all of about 10 minutes.

By the end of the three hours, in between straining to hear the dialogue and being jostled in my seat by the incessant kicking, the whole situation was so absurd that it had somehow become hysterically funny. After all, this had to be a joke.

On the way to our cars, we had the good fortune to run into this same trio, this time with the child galloping through the parking lot whining about – you guessed it, ice cream. As I walked by them, I just couldn’t resist.

“Wow, if this is her being good, I wouldn’t want to see it when she doesn’t behave! Glad she’s getting that ice cream – sugar should make the situation much better!”

Once again, I was met with a pair of blank stares.

Next time, get a babysitter.

Seriously.

Individuals who haven’t surfed in years due to spinal cord injuries, that left them paralyzed, will be able to get on to surfboards at Long Beach thanks to an organization called Wheels2Water.

Dozens of volunteers are needed to help paralyzed surfers out of their wheelchairs and on to specially designed surfboards.

The Wheels2Water event takes place starting at 10 a.m. on Sunday, August 12th at National Boulevard in Long Beach.

Interested volunteers should contact Anthony Testaverde at 516.729.1061. A second event is scheduled for Sunday, September 23rd at Lido Beach.

“Life’s not over after a spinal cord injury,” says Joe Testaverde, who lost the use of his legs and has limited use of his hands after a backyard diving accident and in whose honor the Testaverde Fund was established.

“With the help of volunteers, these paralyzed athletes will get out of their wheelchairs and prepare for the most exhilarating ride of their lives. It’s about getting out and riding a wave. It’s

about enjoying life and not letting a disability cripple you.”

Wheels 2 Water, a project of the not-forprofit Testaverde Fund for Spinal Cord Injury, provides specially equipped surfboards with handles and leg bumpers.

Two wheelchairs with dune buggy tires transport the athletes from the boardwalk across the sand to the sea and each participant wears a special life vest with attached scuba tanks for safety.

The goal of Wheels2Water is to help provide physically disabled individuals with the opportunity to enjoy the recreational and therapeutic benefits of water sports in order to improve their overall quality of life and health.

PET’S PLACE

Dear Readers, Sparkles was all awiggle with anticipation. Her toys were packed and she was freshly groomed, her little heart pounded with love and joy...she was going home. The wonderful people at Massapequa Pet’s Vet who saved her life when her owner decided he’d rather go on vacation than pay for Sparkle’s surgery had told her about the wonderful loving couple who would come for her. The pain from her injuries and the heartbreak of being abandoned by the person 2. she loved was behind her now. Sparkles was more than willing to devote her whole being to her new owners and to allow her broken heart to heal.

Little Shelter: As the hours went by, Sparkles would 631.368.8770 blink and snuff the air every time she heard DEMI footsteps. “Was it them? Would she be going young female Calico, home now?” Sparkles found it hard to wait.

Domestic Short Hair At the end of the day, Sparkles finally heard FLO the footsteps coming to her cage - this was female Maltese it, her new people had arrived to take her home. But instead it was her old Massapequa Pet’s Vet friends. “We’re sorry, Sparkles girl, they’re not coming... They changed their minds.” They carefully unpacked her toys and gave her a hug; then they shut the lights and Sparkles was alone in the dark. She sighed as she circled her cage, and then she lay down on her bed with her head on her paws...waiting.

Readers, I was told that the reason the wonderful couple did not come for Sparkles was because they were heartbroken. Their beloved Rottweiller had died, and the gentleman could not bring himself to open his heart to another dog. Everyone deals with loss differently.

My poor heart has been broken so many times with the loss of a beloved pet. I understand the pain. For me, the only way I can cope is to open my heart and welcome another pet to help me heal. Without that special healing love, I would find the pain of loss very difficult to deal with. I would like to ask that couple to reconsider, to honor the memory of their dearly loved dog by allowing Sparkles to love them and help them heal.

But meanwhile, Sparkles is still waiting. Please consider calling Massapequa Pet’s Vet at 516.797.8387 so you can meet Sparkles. Perhaps you’re the special loving person she’s been waiting for. I’m aching to write a happy ending to this story. Every living creature deserves to give love and be loved in return, don’t you agree?

fascinated students about the research projects she has worked on during her career.

Malinowitzer said, “The symposium was a huge success. It opened the students’ eyes as to what they need to do now in order to prepare for their senior year and after graduation. We plan on having many more symposium meetings after school throughout the 2012-2013 school year.

Our goal is to provide our students with every bit of information they will need to compete against other students who are applying to these medical schools.

We also want them to have an edge as far as knowing the people who are involved in the field and closely connected to the colleges.”

The symposium was arranged by Cheryl Davidson, the director of workforce readiness for North Shore-LIJ. Davidson, who will serve on the Medical and Health Technology Career Academy’s advisory committee, recently donated 40 North ShoreLIJ hospital lab jackets for each of the students in the Academy. Headquartered in Great Neck, the North Shore-LIJ healthcare network has become a major supporter of the new EI Career Academy. Joseph Cabral, North Shore-LIJ’s senior vice president and chief human resources officer, has already met and personally corresponded with the Academy’s students and offered them internships. Cabral, who also serves as the coordinator of the new Long Island STEM Hub, plans to take a more active role as an advisor to the new Career Academy during 2012-2013.

She also told them to send their transcripts to Hofstra Medical College because there may be some special opportunities for them coming from the Career Academy program.”

A second speaker was Carol Boyer, the corporate human resources director of compensation strategies at the North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System. Boyer detailed the different jobs available at North Shore-LIJ and what skills are required for those jobs. “She also was very supportive of the program,” remarked Malinowitzer.

“She volunteered to be a part of the advisory committee going forward next year.”

Joanne Snapp, director of admissions for Hofstra Medical College, discussed the requirements necessary for pursuing a career in the medical field and answered questions from the students. Snapp offered them a tour of the college and the opportunity to visit Hofstra’s new medical school. “She told them that she was very impressed with the new Medical Academy and is willing to help them with anything to prepare for college,” said Israel Malinowitzer, the director of the Career Academies.

Young artists also have the opportunity to hone their craft on state-of-theart equipment, such as the audio lab where musicians can arrange their own cinematic scores to actual movie scenes, or the digital lab that allows young composers to create using leading-edge software. Students also get a taste of what professionals are currently doing, with trips to shows, museums and the like.

The final week of the academy is a showcase of what the students have learned. The big finale includes a major art exhibit, the publication of a journal and an extravaganza of performances, from plays to cabarets.

“The program opens up all sorts of educational opportunities that many of these students may not have experienced,” says Andrea Schubach, principal of the Summer Arts Academy. “It helps young artists to gain confidence in what they are doing and to try things they never have before, all while immersed in an environment that is supportive of their talents.”

The one thing summer academy students do not experience is ennui. The burgeoning artists work collaboratively, crossing over from program to program and applying their interests in new and innovative ways.

Creative writing students, for example, work with musical theater students to develop original productions, giving writers time in the spotlight and performers a

More than 160 middle school students (grades 612) from 24 school districts across Nassau and Suffolk counties enjoyed an exceptional experience in the arts this July.

The annual Summer Arts Academy at Nassau BOCES’ Long Island High School for the Arts (LIHSA) pairs aspiring artists with distinguished professionals for a rare educational opportunity.

LIHSA’s accomplished faculty is home to Emmywinners, film and televisions actors, published poets and playwrights, Broadway performers, master musicians and dozens of other successful artists.

Choosing from coursework in the visual arts, dance, drama, musical theater, creative writing, instrumental music, vocals and digital media, students work with these professionals in their chosen interests for

Library Receives Grant

The Brook Avenue Library is the recipient of a $5,000 grant from the Laura Bush Foundation for America’s Libraries Fund. Mrs. Phyllis Simon, librarian at Brook Avenue, wrote the grant with School Principal Regina Vorwald, and Bay Shore district grant writer, Janet McAlpine.

The grant will be used to continue to develop the library book collection in English and Spanish.

Students at Brook Avenue will enjoy the wonderful new books that will be purchased through this grant. Brook Avenue was

the only school in the Nassau-Suffolk region to receive the award, out of the 15 recipients in New York State.

This year the Laura Bush Foundation for America’s Libraries awarded grants to 238 school libraries, with a total $1,126,315 in grants for 2012. Grants of up to $5,000 are awarded to school libraries to expand, update, and diversify their collections. The grant application process is administered by The Community Foundation for the National Capital Region with guidance

Photo courtesy of: Central Islip School District Committee. The grants are funded through generous donations to the endowment from individuals, corporations and foundations.

Laura Bush has stated, “My lifelong passion for books and reading began when I was a little girl.

This new Foundation provides yet another opportunity to share with America’s children the magical world of books and reading.”

That sentiment will certainly be echoed in Brook Avenue’s fortunate library.

LOCAL HERO HONORED - Islip Town Councilman Anthony Senft recently presented an award on behalf of the Islip Town Board to a local hero. Angelo V. Cotugno was a tanker for two years in the Korean War, where he lost his hearing. After returning home, he served for over 30 years in the Deer Park School District, before retiring in 1992. He is also a long-time member of the Eddie Peisker VFW Post 588.

Ducks Game To Fundraise The Lupus Alliance of America, Inc. Long Island/Queens Affiliate is selling Section 113 tickets to the Long Island Ducks vs. Lancaster baseball game to be held on Saturday, August 18th, at 7 p.m.

Tickets for this game are $15 each plus a 50¢ service charge per order for tickets mailed to you.

of Long Island’s premier courses, but it has also become so much more.

Event Co-Chair, Jeffery Capazzi explained the appeal of R. Brinkley Smithers, “It is wonderful to be involved in organizing this event, especially when the need for proven drug and alcohol support is so evident and continues to escalate each year.”

Prizes will be awarded in team and individual categories, and participants will have their chance to “Beat the Pro.” With a silent auction, live auction, and dozens of raffle prizes, everyone will feel like a winner, even if their scores are well over par.

The live auction boasts playing opportunities at some of the country’s top courses, while the raffle features golf and vacation packages to the far-away destinations of Scotland and Southern California.

“Rest assured this is not your run-of-the-mill golf tournament,” explained Executive Director Dr. Jeffrey Reynolds. “It is an opportunity to provide hope and healing to atrisk individuals and the families who support them.”

The annual fundraiser offers several participation

and sponsorship opportunities.

Tournament Sponsors will be featured in multimedia presentations at the tournament, receive sponsor level signage on the course, a pin flag/tee sign package and great exposure on our high traffic website. Each sponsorship package comes with playing opportunities at one of Long Island’s most popular charity golf tournaments.

Not a golfer? Not to worry, tickets are available for the Diamonds in the Rough Dinner, to be held at 5:30 p.m. at The Creek.

“R. Brinkley Smithers has earned a reputation as one of Long Island’s most popular charity golf tournaments- how fitting that it is dedicated to raising critical funds to address the area’s most prevalent problems,” remarked Event Co-Chair Michael Brennan.

Foursomes and individual tickets are already on sale and expected to sell out before the event.

For more information, or to reserve your spot today, please contact Mary Alice O’Connor at 516.747.2606 extension 105, or visit LICADD.ORG.

“If we can ease the pain and worry in some small way, we are honored to do so - it is our privilege to help in any way we can,” stated Healthy Sundays Volunteer and St. Catherine’s Nurse Recruiter Sharon Cash.

Healthy Sundays exemplifies the mission of Catholic Health Services (CHS) to care for those in need and is one of the system’s most prolific outreach efforts. Started in 2005, the Healthy Sundays program provides preventive health screenings and education to members of underserved communities

on Long Island. The Healthy Sundays program is designed to identify, control, treat and prevent medical conditions that are most prevalent in these communities, such as tuberculosis, obesity, diabetes, cholesterol and hypertension.

The program aims to improve the underserved population’s quality of life, by decreasing morbidity and mortality.

COMMUNITY RELATIONS - On Wednesday, July 25th, Southside Hospital’s community relations team visited the Gerald Ryan Outreach Center at Our Lady of Miraculous Medal in Wyandanch. The community relations team was provided a tour of the facilities before distributing re-useable water bottles to the children of the summer camp. Southside Hospital also generously donated $1,000 to the program fund of the outreach center.

Two weeks ago, the volunteers of St. Catherine’s Healthy Sundays Program were contacted to help a local family in need. After reading through a letter about a young man in his last days, suffering with ALS and unable to provide for his family, including four children, the volunteers initiated their mission to help in anyway they could. They started by running a week-long clothing and food drive throughout the medical center. The staff was eager to answer the call to help and a car full of donations were delivered to the family’s home on Friday,

Sparkles was all awiggle with anticipation. Her toys were packed and she was freshly groomed, her little heart pounded with love and joy...she was going home. The wonderful people at Massapequa Pet’s Vet who saved her life when her owner decided he’d rather go on vacation than pay for Sparkle’s surgery had told her about the wonderful loving couple who would come for her. The pain from her injuries and the heartbreak of being abandoned by the person 2. she loved was behind her now. Sparkles was more than willing to devote her whole being to her new owners and to allow her broken heart to heal.

Little Shelter: As the hours went by, Sparkles would 631.368.8770 blink and snuff the air every time she heard DEMI footsteps. “Was it them? Would she be going young female Calico, home now?” Sparkles found it hard to wait.

Domestic Short Hair At the end of the day, Sparkles finally heard FLO the footsteps coming to her cage - this was female Maltese it, her new people had arrived to take her home. But instead it was her old Massapequa Pet’s Vet friends. “We’re sorry, Sparkles girl, they’re not coming... They changed their minds.” They carefully unpacked her toys and gave her a hug; then they shut the lights and Sparkles was alone in the dark. She sighed as she circled her cage, and then she lay down on her bed with her head on her paws...waiting.

Readers, I was told that the reason the wonderful couple did not come for Sparkles was because they were heartbroken. Their beloved Rottweiller had died, and the gentleman could not bring himself to open his heart to another dog. Everyone deals with loss differently.

My poor heart has been broken so many times with the loss of a beloved pet. I understand the pain. For me, the only way I can cope is to open my heart and welcome another pet to help me heal. Without that special healing love, I would find the pain of loss very difficult to deal with. I would like to ask that couple to reconsider, to honor the memory of their dearly loved dog by allowing Sparkles to love them and help them heal.

But meanwhile, Sparkles is still waiting. Please consider calling Massapequa Pet’s Vet at 516.797.8387 so you can meet Sparkles. Perhaps you’re the special loving person she’s been waiting for. I’m aching to write a happy ending to this story. Every living creature deserves to give love and be loved in return, don’t you agree?

Has Moved!
