Crisis

Proudly Serving The Community Since 1953!

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

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.

IT’S MOVIE TIME!

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.

Coastal Clean-Up

There are environmental reports due in September, but not all are for school projects.

September 15th marks the main date for the 2012 International Coastal Cleanup, sponsored locally

by Keep Islip Clean.

As the name implies, this special series of cleanups is an international event and is unique because it involves not only picking up but also recording the type of litter found near

waterways. The data is analyzed by the American Littoral Society and the Ocean Conservancy to track global pollution trends in the marine environment.

“This is an excellent activity for people interested in the health of waterways. It takes a bit more work than a regular litter cleanup because data cards are part of the activity but it’s a way to be part of a global effort that will also improve our own

coastal area,” said Nancy Cochran, Executive Director of Keep Islip Clean.

KIC provides all data collection materials, instructions and supplies.

Volunteers interested in participating can register their group through the KIC office, which can be reached at 631.224.2627 o r keepislipclean@optonline. net.

their call will be played back to them, confirming that the radio is operational and allowing them to assess transmission strength, a crucial safety check.

Sea Tow’s Automated Radio Check service also aids the U.S. Coast Guard by reducing none m e r g e n c y communications on VHF Channel 16, freeing the channel up for distress call activity. “We are happy to be able to provide the free Automated Radio Check service to local boaters and all other mariners passing through the area," said Carl Darenberg, President of Montauk Marine Basin. “A working VHF radio is one of the most important pieces of safety equipment on any boat.”

The first and only service of its kind in the U.S., Sea Tow's Automated Radio Check repurposes existing technology in an

innovative way by utilizing marine operator channels that are no longer needed for voice transmissions. Automated Radio Check is broadcast via VHF channels 24-28, depending on the region.

To find the dedicated Automated Radio Check channel in a particular area, all a boater needs to do is visit w w w. s e a t o w. c o m / a r c , enter their city, state or zip code, and find their location on the interactive map.

reflected on the importance of religious freedom and the important role Muslims have played throughout our country’s history. He talked about the extraordinary courage of Muslim and MuslimAmerican women, including Sister Sanaa.

“They are faith leaders like Sanaa Nadim, one of the first Muslim chaplains at an American college - a voice for interfaith dialogue who’s had the opportunity to meet with the Pope to discuss these issues. We’re very proud to have you here,” said President Obama, according to an official White House transcript.

“It was a real honor being recognized by President Barack Obama,” said Sister Sanaa. “He truly values the religious diversity that forms the fabric of our nation. Being at the White House where

our founding fathers fought many years ago for the freedoms we enjoy today, reminded me of the importance of working to build bridges between groups divided by ethnic, cultural or religious differences. We are truly blessed to have a president who appreciates the beauty of interfaith collaboration, and I feel so

lucky to have had the opportunity to have spent time with him.”

Sister Sanaa established the Stony Brook Muslim Student Association and works toward its constructive growth, which was reflected by an American interfaith survey that noted Stony Brook has the largest Muslim Student

Association in the nation.

Her current agenda involves working with different religious and cultural organizations as well as private and public institutions to continue building bridges among different faith groups to positively enhance the image of Islam through unity and understanding.

PET’S PLACE

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

Dear Readers,

For More Information Call: 631-226-2636 - www.theneighbornewspapers.com

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

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.

Second Sight Bike-A-Thon all over Long Island will enjoy a day of exercise, food, and friends while supporting the Guide Dog Foundation’s mission to improve the quality of life for people who are blind, visually impaired, or who have other special needs.

This year’s bike-a-thon features routes of Long Island’s North Shore with

rides ranging from a family-friendly 5-mile “fun” ride to a challenging 65 miles. All rides begin and end at the Foundation’s Smithtown campus, and the first ride begins at 8 a.m. When they return to the Foundation, participants will be treated to a picnic lunch, tours of the 10-acre

Assistance Available The Long Island Veterans Open House by Eastern Suffolk BOCES welcomed veterans interested in enhancing their skills, changing careers, and seeking education-funding solutions. On hand to assist were representatives of the U.S. Congress, Islip Town, Suffolk Sheriff’s Department, Department of Labor, Teachers Federal Credit Union, and others.

Additionally, veterans from World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War were on hand to speak. A financial

officer attended to discuss available federal and state funds and assist in navigating the process.

For example, the post 9/11 Bill provides education benefits to veterans seeking training and employment.

ESBOCES day and evening courses are available in automotive, aviation; building trades; computer repair; health related occupations; paralegal; air conditioning, heating, and refrigeration; and others.

In addition to the initial presentation and meet-

and-greet at the Milliken Technical Center, an adjoining room was filled with career displays and brochures.

Open House coordinator and ESBOCES Administrator Barbara Egloff commented, “We believe it’s important to give back to the men and women who served this country, so we are planning more events and free services.”

For additional information, contact Ms. Egloff at 631.244.5800.

campus, and visits with the Foundation’s special puppies.

Registration fees are $50 for an individual; $75 for a family (up to two

adults and two children 17 and under). Register by August 31 to receive a free 2012 Bike-A-Thon T-shirt.

New this year – riders will be able to set up personalized fundraising pages to get their families and friends involved.

Riders who raise $75 and $175 or more will receive exclusive gifts.

The Suffolk Bicycle Riders Association, Long Island’s largest recreational cycling club, has hosted the Guide Dog Foundation’s bike-a-thon for the past 23 years. Their volunteers will again offer their services to ensure a safe and fun day for all participants. Helmets are required for all riders.
