students playing more advanced pieces, and growing to eventually include all performers playing pieces that even the youngest students could manage.

The play-down featured a series of international tunes, from Loch Lomond, a traditional Scottish piece, to Bashana, a traditionally Israeli piece, to La Culebra, a Mexican Mariachi composition.

In total, 68 musicians participated in this event.

In the words of Carol Kushner, co-founder and co-director of the Music Institute, this Gala was “easily our best concert ever.” Graduating student James Toomey, attending Cornell University in the fall said “I’ve played in a lot of these concerts over the years… and I can say without question that they’re only getting better. The diversity of the repertoire…the passion of the students… the unwavering commitment to bettering our world through music displayed time and time again by the teachers and faculty made this concert what it turned out to be. This concert was [really] awesome.”

For the past 22 years, the Music Institute of Long Island (MILI) has provided children and adults with musical instruction in a number of different instruments and styles from their location in the Community Reformed Church, 90 Plandome Road, Manhasset. MILI has a number of intro classes for beginners, allowing students and

On June 9th, the Landmark Building and its filled Jeanne Rimsky Theater what can only be described as a very special concert.

The Music Institute of Long Island was performing its year end Gala, the culmination of a year of hard work for its students, ranging in age from 3 to 17 and for its teachers.

The concert featured a variety of musical selections, from Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to Vivaldi’s Spring and Rachmaninov’s Prelude In G-Minor. The audience listened to the Musical Theater Group sing It’s A Hard-Knock Life and Castle In A Cloud from Les Miserables, heard 11 duos and several solos, trios, quartets and quintets, one of which was Mozart’s Piano Quartet K 478-Allegro, which featured two graduates and one of the directors of the school and was certainly a highlight of the concert.

Other composers featured include Beethoven, Dvorak, Mendelssohn, Brahms and Tchaikovsky. Two alumni of the Institute returned to participate in this concert: Neil Miller, who is attending the Eastman School of Music, and Zoe Vinegar, attending Sarah Lawrence, both studying music.

This year’s graduates will be headed to Fordham, Cornell, Delaware University, Georgetown and the University at Albany. The program closed with a group play-down in the Suzuki style, starting only with the more advanced

CONGRATULATIONS TO Sarah Haass

United Skates Roller Skating Rink in Seaford hosts thousands of birthday parties, special events and private events throughout the year, but the event that they have planned for September 2nd and September 3rd is one that is truly special.

United Skates will be offering FREE admission to their Labor Day Skates on Sunday, September 2nd, from 12 to 2:30 p.m., and 3 to 5:30 p.m.; and also on Monday, September 3rd, from 2 to 5 p.m. to anyone who donates a minimum of 2 cans of food.

One in six Americans in this country struggle with hunger today. Food banks are being hit extremely hard, with fewer people being able to donate due to economic struggles.

United Skates Roller Skating Rink is excited to be participating in Hunger Action Month this upcoming September,

hoping to encourage hundreds of people to donate cans of food that will be then donated to the Island Harvest.

Lauren Fink, Event Coordinator at United Skates states, “We have thousands of families visit us each and every year from the surrounding community.

We understand the needs of our community, and we want to give back in a big way. We are excited about the event we will be hosting on September 2nd and September 3rd.”

Normal admission to the session is $10 for children, and $11 for adults.

Anyone who comes down for any of those two sessions with two canned goods will be admitted FREE of charge!

“Our core customer is families, this event is a great way for families to give back together while also spending the evening participating in a fun,

healthy family activity.”

United Skates of America is located at 1276 Hicksville Road in Seaford.

Caring For Granite Countertops

Taking Time By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

I like being busy. It makes time go by faster, and gives you a sense of productivity otherwise lost on being complacent. And this summer has certainly been a busy one.

The only problem is when you pause just long enough to look at the calendar and realize – it’s almost over.

Labor Day is just around the corner and, while fall is technically over three weeks away, we all know that everyone’s mental clocks reset the second the last “official” barbeque of the season is over.

Back to school, back from vacation… quick, close the pool and pack up the lawn chairs! Stick a fork in summer – it’s done.

On the one hand, I would love to squeeze in just one

jlynn@theneighbornewspapers.com www.facebook.com/instepwithjamie more afternoon at the beach (or two or three), and, after all, a good old-fashioned grilled hot dog knows no season. Is it really time to pack up the white accessories, along with all the skirts and pastel-colored linens? But what if it’s still warm out??

Face it, transitioning isn’t easy.

But on the other hand, there’s something exciting about fall too. It has its own perks and pleasures – the cool, crisp air, the upcoming Fall Festivals and Homecoming celebrations… football, postseason baseball… winery tours, pumpkin picking, Halloween… It’s definitely not all bad. Plus, it gives me an excuse to go “back to school” shopping for some new clothes!

Every season arrives with

eager anticipation. But then, about halfway through, we’re already waiting for the next round. We’re impatient like that. And then we complain that time has flown by too quickly for us to fully appreciate each and every day.

Can’t have it both ways.

Like it or not, a new season – and a new mentality – is just around the corner. But what we choose to do with it, and how quickly we choose to react, is up to us. My calendar says we still have three and a half weeks left of summer, even more if the weather holds out. But if you’d rather dig out the boots and scarves from the back of the closet and get on line from now for Halloween candy, well that’s up to you.

Just don’t complain that time is flying by too quickly.

(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.

Medicare Part D NAPSA)-Medicare beneficiaries who are selecting a Part D plan can go to Medicare's Plan Finder-available at www. medicare.gov/find-a-plan.

There, they can shop for the plan that best suits their needs.

Open enrollment ends on December 7 this year, so don't delay.

In front of a totally packed house at Patchogue Theatre for the Performing Arts, the 2013 Miss Long Island and Miss Long Island Teen pageant took place live, resulting in our newest Long Island Beauty Queens being crowned!

MISS LONG ISLAND 2013: JESSICA RICCO of Westbury MISS LONG ISLAND TEEN 2013:

NIKKI ORLANDO of Nesconset Over 300 applications poured in to the LI Pageant offices this year, where only 31 finalists were chosen to compete for these prestigious titles and the opportunity to represent all of Long Island at Donald Trump’s New York USA pageant this coming January.

You may remember last year’s Miss Long Island Teen 2012, Sabrina

Mastrangelo of Bellmore, went on to win that 2012 New York State title, and Long Island is certainly hoping for a repeat this year with their two newest queens!

“The inner and outer beauty of the 2013 queens is certain to make Long Island proud this year,” says Lori Thomas, LI Pageant Executive Director.

“Their commitment to volunteering all

women across our great region.”

With over 3-million residents, Long Island’s population is actually larger than 37 of our nation’s states, so these

inspirational young queens have a lot to be proud of, and they have both pledged to represent us well during their reign.

Last Chance For Taxpayers Oyster Bay Town Receiver of Taxes James J. Stefanich advises Town of Oyster Bay property owners who missed paying their 2012 General taxes by the August 10th deadline that they can still avoid additional interest and fees beyond the standard 2% late payment penalty.

“Late payers should immediately contact the Receiver’s office at 516.624.6400 if they did not receive a second notification with a delinquent tax bill,” Receiver Stefanich stated.

“Payments postmarked after August 31st cannot be accepted by the Town since the collection

warrant will have expired.

Those payments must be sent to the Nassau County Treasurer at 1 West Street, Mineola, New York 11501.”

Receiver Stefanich pointed out, “Failure to pay late taxes before the collection warrant expires will result in a delinquent tax lien proceeding with the possibility of the lien being sold the following February.

Continued failure to pay all taxes levied against the property could result in your loss of the property.”

In September, the Nassau County Treasurer will be mailing notices to all property owners with taxes in arrears. Receiver

Stefanich advises homeowners who fall under those circumstances to contact the Nassau County Treasurer at 516.571.2090 to determine the amount in arrears. They may also visit the Treasurer’s office at 1 West Street, Mineola.

Receiver Stefanich noted, “I want to make sure that all Oyster Bay property taxpayers whose taxes are in arrears do not jeopardize their home ownership because they were unaware of the consequences of not responding to notices from the Town or County.”

Smartphone Safety: What You Need To Know (NAPSI)—Smartphones make life so much more convenient, but if they are lost or stolen, your personal information may be exposed. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to protect your information.

Here are a few tips from CTIA—the international w i r e l e s s telecommunications association: Take steps to prevent theft. Before a phone is lost or stolen, protect your information by using passcodes and applications.

Passcodes—Use a passcode to make it harder for a thief to access your smartphone if it is lost or stolen.

Apps—Use apps that can track or locate a lost or stolen smartphone. Some apps may also enable you to remotely wipe a device

or emit a loud alarm.

If your device is lost or stolen, contact your wireless provider immediately to suspend your service. CTIA and its members always want America’s wireless users to be safe.

Together with the Federal Communications Commission and major city police chiefs, CTIA and participating wireless companies have agreed to take steps to help protect consumers and their private information on smartphones.

Paramount to preventing smartphone thefts is educating consumers about the tools and features that carriers, device manufacturers and app creators already offer.

By using these passcodes and apps, consumers can protect themselves and their personal information

on their wireless devices.

In addition, participating carriers have agreed to implement and deploy databases to prevent thieves from reactivating stolen smartphones in the U.S. and, when appropriate, internationally.

By using a smartphone’s unique identifying number, wireless providers will help prevent smartphones that are reported by their customers as stolen from being activated and/or provided service on their own networks.

The U.S. wireless industry has always been dedicated to advancing public safety and enhancing the security and protection of its customers.

“I invite anyone interested in adopting a pet to visit the Town’s Animal Shelter and see the wide selection of puppies and kittens, as well as older dogs and cats, even some purebreds, available for adoption,” Councilwoman Alesia said. “Trained shelter personnel will work with you to make sure the animal you select is appropriate for your family’s lifestyle.”

End-Of-Summer Food Drive Thirteen year-old Hampton/NYC resident, Grant Andreas had an idea to collect the leftover food from the summer months to feed the struggling families of Long Island.

Thanks to help of Strong’s Marine and Hall Lane Movin & Storage, Move For Hunger is turning Grant’s idea into a reality wit the first annual Hamptons End of Summer Food Drive.

Over 320,000 people on Long Island, including 118,000 children, live on incomes that put them at risk for hunger. The collections from th End of Summer Food Drive will directly benefit the food supply of Long Island Cares-The Harry Chapin Food Bank; the organization that provides hunger relief for struggling families in Nassau and Suffol counties.

Collection boxes will be set up all Labor Day weekend long, September 1st through September 3rd at Strong’s Marine, conveniently located along County Road 39.

Area residents are urged to set aside an nonperishable food items and drop off the donations during the weekend. Any person that makes a donation will automatically be entered to win a Stand Up Paddleboard courtesy of Sunrise to Sunse Surf and Sport.

Hall Lane Moving and Storage, the local partner of Move For Hunger, has offered to provide the necessary boxes and deliver all donation directly to the Long Island Cares-The Harry Chapin Food Bank.

“We’re very excited to once again partner with our friends at Move for Hunger for this very creative and exciting event,” said Paule Pachter, Executive Director of Long Island Cares, Inc. “We’re very hopeful tha many people in the Hampton communities will come by and help th regional food bank in an our efforts to feed and support our neighbor in need.

About Move For

New Ribbon To Support My Hope Chest, a Florida-based non-profit, is proud to introduce the Breast Reconstruction Awareness Ribbon, the first ribbon to support uninsured and underinsured breast cancer survivors. This new ribbon speaks to the r e s t o r a t i o n , transformation and the completion from the cancer journey that many survivors seek through reconstructive surgery after mastectomy. For those who desire, breast reconstruction provides closure and a new wholeness allowing a woman to put the disease behind her at last.

“The traditional ‘pink ribbon’ has branded breast cancer ‘awareness, education and research’ but overlooks a huge population of underserved survivors that live with scars and a constant reminder of the disease,” founder Alisa Savoretti said. “There are hundreds of breast cancer groups in America focused on prevention and finding a cure, while the need for

breast reconstruction has flown under the radar of the ‘pink ribbon.’”

The colors in the breast reconstruction ribbon transition and transform, just like the survivors My Hope Chest helps to become whole again. The ribbon goes from pink the original breast cancer color, to white - known as the “light” or the power of healing. The white blends to yellow, the color of hope, sunshine and new beginnings.

The Breast Reconstruction Awareness Ribbon symbolizes transformation and closure from the disease.

My Hope Chest hopes this new symbol will help others recognize this need and shine the light on this epidemic for thousands who have sacrificed a piece of themselves to save their life.

Founded in 2003 by Alisa Savoretti, My Hope Chest services pick up where other breast cancer organizations leave off providing “final step of breast cancer treatment” and helping women

become whole again.

Savoretti knows from first-hand experience how breast reconstruction after cancer helps restore not only the body but also transforms and heals the mind and spirit. She founded the organization after her own struggle with breast cancer.

About My Hope Chest My Hope Chest is a national non-profit organization that provides breast reconstruction for uninsured and underprivileged breast cancer survivors. For more information on My Hope Chest, visit their website at http://www.myhopechest. org/

College To Participate In Walk

SCHOOL SUPPLY DONATION - NUMC staff participated in the NUMC Kiwanis Back To School program whereby hospital employees donated basic school supplies such as notebooks, pens,, crayons and back-packs for needy pediatric patients of the hospital. The supplies will be given out to the pediatric patients within the next two weeks, right in time for school’s opening day.

Jones Beach, Field 5, is again the official Nassau County location for this year’s American Heart Association Heart/Stroke Walk, and Nassau Community College is again a proud supporter of the Walk. Three thousand volunteers and participants are expected to take part in the Walk, which will take place on Sunday, September 23rd, with registration from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., and the Walk itself beginning at 10 a.m.

“Nassau Community College is pleased to again support the American Heart/Stroke Walk for the tenth year,” said Dr. Kenneth K. Saunders, Officer in Charge at Nassau Community College. “The partnership established over the years

between the College and the American Heart Association has created opportunities for thousands of walkers to raise much needed funding for heart and stroke research.” Over the last few years, the College community has raised over $30,000 for American Heart Association in NCC’s name.

This year’s Red Cap Survivor, 12-year-old Cecilia Funk, was born with a congenital heart block. Cecilia is very active and serves as the student body vice president of her middle school. She is very engaging, takes dance and voice lessons, and has the lead in her school’s production of Alice In Wonderland.

John R. Buran, President and CEO of

Flushing Bank, is Chair of the 2012 American Heart/Stroke Walk.

Sponsored by the American Heart Association, the 5K walk and run event raises funds in the fight against heart disease and stroke on Long Island. It also promotes cardiovascular health and regular exercise.

Soothing Your Skin (NAPSI)—For an herb that’s so pretty and so deliciously aromatic, lavender has some surprisingly practical uses.

According to folk wisdom, the flowering herb can repel insects, improve circulation and help induce relaxation and restful sleep.

While the herb is a popular aromatherapy aide

for dealing with insomnia or stress, it is also used to help promote healthy, beautiful skin. The herb’s antiseptic, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties are used to soothe acne, psoriasis, eczema and other skin inflammations.

PET’S PLACE

BY SHARON HUBBARD - Sharonadoptpet@aol.com • avoiceforanimals.org

Dear Readers,

1.

Creighton did, however, take great issue when I used the words “killed” or “slaughtered.”

Unbelievably, he kept “correcting” me and saying the cats were “euthanized.”

So here, especially for the Councilman, is the definition of Euthanasia: the act or practice of killing or permitting the death of hopelessly sick or injured individuals (as persons or domestic animals) in a relativly painless way for reasons of mercy.

Councilman Creighton also suggested I contact Supervisor Pat Vecchio, and I think that’s a great idea. Readers, if you are as upset and outraged as I am, if you feel the need to be a voice for these little voices who will never be heard again, please call Supervisor Vecchio at 631.360.7600 and let him know how you feel.

After all, he can’t make the necessary corrections at the shelter if he doesn’t know you want change!

Please visit a shelter and adopt.

I am outraged!

It is beyond comprehension that one of our Long Island animal shelters would kill 15 cats in one day, yet that is exactly what happened at the Smithtown Animal Shelter.

Unfortunately, by the time I started receiving tips about the cats, it was too late - they were already dead.

I called and spoke with shelter director George Beatty, who confirmed that the cats had been killed. I’m sorry to tell you he was less than polite on a personal level, and also mumbled something about some of the cats being there for two years or more and unadoptable, which makes this even more horrible.

Imagine the sense of terror and betrayal these poor little beings felt as a needle was jabbed into them and they felt their lives draining away!

I want you to know Readers, that I asked EVERY rescue organization I know of and NOT ONE was contacted by the Smithtown Shelter or George Beatty and asked to take even one cat.

As a matter of fact, here’s what some of them had to say: “Not a good shelter at all”...“I was never contacted by the Town of Smithtown Animal Shelter in regards to rescuing any cats at the shelter”...“It’s unfortunate that shelters here on LI still resort to killing rather than reaching out for help.”

Readers, I have made it known to shelter director Beatty that I would post pictures and write stories about animals at the shelter, but he has never submitted one picture. I have featured blind ten year-old cats, crippled animals, deaf animals...and our readers have always come forward and adopted. There is absolutely no excuse for not reaching out in every way possible to save the lives of these cats. This is an example of the very worst and least progressive in animal sheltering.

By the way, Readers, I also reached out to Smithtown Councilman Robert Creighton, who I was told was the town “animal shelter liaison.” I checked the Councilman’s bio and found nothing even remotely related to pets or animals in general, which would explain his less than sympathetic attitude during our phone call. Councilman

(NAPSI)—With a flood of real estate listings on the market, sellers continuously search for ways to stand out.

The process is called staging. Done correctly, it can make a house look bigger, brighter, cleaner, warmer and make homebuyers want to buy it.

To help, here are some tips: • Curb Appeal: The exterior of the house is the first thing potential buyers see; make sure it’s bright, clean and inviting.

• Clean: Clean from top to bottom, getting rid of clutter and organizing the space. Don’t forget the ceilings and fans.

• Brighten Up: Do what you can to help buyers envision living in the space. Make sure windows are streak free. Hide personal pictures. Instead, decorate with fresh flowers.

• Living Space: Choose neutral tones for the walls and furniture. Slipcovers are an inexpensive way to spruce up old furniture.

Add pillows for pops of

color.

• Dining Area: Set your dining room or kitchen table. Use brightly colored plates and napkins.

• Master Bedroom: You can make the space appear larger by limiting furniture to essentials; a bed and dresser will do.

Working closely with a licensed real estate agent can often help sellers achieve the best results.

For more staging and DIY tips, visit www.Homes.com's Idea Gallery.

Tiles are a great way to add a punch of personality to your home and many tiling projects can be completed in just one day. With a few tools and some elbow grease, you can breathe new life and flair into any room.

Sleep Better, Stress Less (NAPSI)-Here's eyeopening news: Recently published research from Oklahoma State University suggests that improving quality of sleep not only reduces stress, but also helps us manage everyday

stress.

"When you're stressed and tired, every aspect of your life is affected," says lifestyle expert and spokesperson for the Better Sleep Council, Lissa Coffey. "Controlling stress and getting a good

night's rest start with evaluating your lifestyle."

Dr. Douglas MacKay, N.D., vice president, scientific and regulatory affairs, Council for Responsible Nutrition, agrees: "Eating a healthy

diet, taking vitamins and other supplements, exercising regularly and getting adequate amounts of sleep are all part of a healthy lifestyle."

Here are more tips to help you sleep better and stress

less: 1. Eat a well-balanced diet.

2. Take your vitamins, including a daily multivitamin. Ask your doctor about other supplements, like valerian,

for healthy sleep.

3.

Evaluate your mattress--consider replacing it if it's five to seven years old or older.

lifetime. Remind smokers that quitting is difficult, but can be attainable.

•Make sure smokers understand smoking for what it really is: a treatable medical condition.

•Suggest patients consider evidence-based treatments, such as overthe-counter or prescription medications, and refer them to counseling to help them quit. Patients can call the national toll-free quitline, (800)-QUIT-NOW, for free counseling or seek help from no-cost websites such as www.BecomeAnEX.org.

•Arrange follow-up contact as necessary to try to prevent relapse. More than 45 million Americans currently smoke and an estimated 70 percent of them want to quit, but lack the tools to do so.

Committing to quit is the crucial first step toward becoming smoke free.

Speaking with your health care provider can help you during this process.

Keeping Families Safe Behind The Wheel driving safety.

An estimated 90 percent of a motorist’s driving decisions are based on how well he or she sees the road, yet many drivers overlook replacing worn wiper blades. Studies show that driver vision is a factor in more than 40 percent of all vehicle crashes.

“I can’t imagine anything being more important than the ability of the driver to see clearly through the windshield,” says Alexia Hayes, a wiper blade technical engineer and mother of two young children. Hayes suggests checking blades periodically and replacing them about every six months.

“Wiper blades are one of the most overlooked pieces of safety equipment,” says Hayes.

“But you won’t find a faster or lower-cost way to make yourself and your family safer than by changing them.”

Better Blades Worn, torn or inefficient blades leave streaks, a film and an inconsistent view of the road that can limit vision or delay driver judgment. New blades can provide a better and longer-lasting clear view of the road.

One option is the Michelin Stealth hybrid technology wiper blade, with a patent-pending, spring-loaded design for superior contact with the windshield and improved wiping performance in all weather conditions.

Clear Up The Clutter (NAPSI)—While many homeowners complain that they don’t have enough space, they may have more than they think.

Surprisingly, according to a survey by the American Cleaning Institute, most clutter in the home is really the result of disorganization.

“The majority of people have plenty of space, they just aren’t using the space wisely or efficiently,” explains Perri Kersh, a

professional organizer, owner of Neat Freak and member of the National Association of Professional Organizers. “The attic, for example, is an ideal place for storing certain infrequently used items such as holiday decor.”

Organizational products can help you make better use of valuable space that is otherwise wasted. The new AtticMaxx™ Shelving System, for example, provides organized attic

space and easy access to stored items. The shelf system mounts between attic trusses—the triangular wooden structures used to support a pitched roof—to create vertical storage space around an attic floor. It installs in minutes with a screwdriver, a level and four screws.

(NAPSI)—From the hottest to coldest and wettest to driest, extreme weather takes a toll on a vehicle, including wiper blades. Rain and snowfall mean wipers should be checked for wear from use, while dry and hot weather can also damage wiper blades. Extreme heat or extended periods of nonuse can cause the blade rubber to take a set or curve in one direction, causing poor wiping performance and limited visibility through the windshield.

To prepare your car for nasty weather, inspecting wiper blades should be part of your seasonal safety check. Properly maintained wiper blades are an easy, low-cost way to ensure the clearest sight line in inclement weather and improve

professionals such as doctors, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, dentists and pharmacists can help smokers by bringing up the subject with patients.

To assist with that, Legacy and Pfizer have developed a downloadable, userfriendly guide for health care providers to help them discuss smoking and tobacco use with their patients.

Here are hints to help: •Talk openly about smoking.

Ask every patient if they smoke. This may open the door to successful intervention.

•Be positive and encouraging. Smokers are often dealing with shame or fear of quitting.

Congratulate the smoker on the decision to quit and reiterate how you are there to help them on their journey.

•Encourage smokers not to give up. Smoking is a chronic, relapsing medical condition; the average smoker tries to quit 6-9 times in their

(NAPSI)—To help protect you and your family from tobaccorelated death and disease, researchers from Legacy®, a national public health organization dedicated to building a world where anyone can quit smoking, recommend two actions: stop smoking or never start. If you do smoke or use tobacco, speak to your doctor about quitting smoking.

A survey of more than 3,146 adults in the U.S. conducted by Legacy discovered that more than one in 10 smokers have concealed their smoking status from a health care provider—nearly half of them stated it was because they are ashamed that they smoke. Another reason for not disclosing this important information to a medical professional: two-thirds surveyed who did not disclose their smoking status reported not wanting to be lectured about smoking.
