Suffolk County Community College head baseball Coach Eric Brown of Coram has been inducted into the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame, College Athletic Director Kevin Foley announced recently.

The NJCAA made the formal announcement February 3rd. Brown will be honored at a pretournament banquet at the 2014 NJCAA Division I Baseball World Series on May 23rd in Grand Junction, Colorado.

Coach Brown, Foley said, is the longest tenured coach of any athletic program at Suffolk County Community College and has led the Sharks for 25 years, amassing an overall record of 587322-7. Coach Brown has led Suffolk to five appearances in the NJCAA Division III World Series (1998, 1999, 2000,

2006, and 2011) and is a five-time recipient of the Region 15 / District F Coach of the Year Award.

“Coach Brown is an exceptional leader who sets a high bar for our student athletes not only on the field, but in the players’ everyday lives. He is a credit to our College, and I am proud to say congratulations to him on behalf of our entire College community,” said Suffolk County Community President Dr. Shaun L. McKay. “This is a fitting acknowledgement of the outstanding record that Coach Brown has achieved as head baseball coach at Suffolk County Community College.

His contribution to the College and the young men who have played for him is legendary. He is an example of how one person can make a difference in so many people’s lives. I have known Eric for more than 30 years and he is truly

an outstanding person and one who deserves this recognition. A multisport star himself, Brown lettered in three sports – including baseball – as a student-athlete at Suffolk. He was hired to the lead Suffolk’s Baseball program in 1987 and was subsequently inducted into the Suffolk County Community College Sports Hall of Fame in 1993,” said Kevin Foley, Director of Athletics for Suffolk County Community College.

Brown is a member of the Suffolk County Sports Hall of Fame and the Longwood High School

Sports Hall of Fame.

In addition to his program’s success on the field, the NJCAA Region 15 Umpires Association has awarded Coach Brown’s program its annual sportsmanship award four times.

Brown is currently the president of the NJCAA Region 15 Baseball Coaches Association, a post he has held since 2000.

Other inductees this year include Steve Ruzich of South Suburban (Ill.) and Tim Wallace of Spartanburg Methodist (S.C.).

The Long Island Real Estate Group recently gave a $25,000 donation to Adults and Children with Learning and Developmental Disabilities, Inc. (ACLD) to allow for a dental suite to be named for LIREG in The Charles Evans Health Services Center.

Dentistry is a challenge

for many individuals with autism and developmental disabilities.

ACLD’s Health Services utilizes a desensitization program to help individuals reduce anxiety about going to the dentist. The program allows for this population to improve their dental health, which is essential to their overall well-being.

Know Your Home’s Value

ACLD is grateful for the generous support by LIREG for this important aspect of the clinic.

Each year, Ride for Life, led by patient and advocate Chris Pendergast, has stopped at SJC on its trek across Long Island where the College’s Recreation Club has provided the

riders with lunch and, in certain instances, monetary donations.

“I am humbled and honored to receive this award recognizing SJC’s support of Ride for Life,” said Dr. Lamberta. “I was introduced to Chris Pendergast through a dear friend more than 20 years ago and have always admired his dedication, commitment and courage.

Chris is a remarkable

human being and has touched so many lives throughout his journey as an educator and with Ride for Life.”

This year’s Ride for Life event will begin on Monday, May 5th, with a brief stop on the way at SJC’s Long Island Campus on Wednesday, May 7th.

Flashback To Today By: Jamie Lynn Ryan There seems to be an obsession lately, especially on social networking sites, with “flashbacks” and “throwbacks” to times that, in hindsight, were happier and simpler.

These moments are shared in the form of photos, videos, reminiscences of milestones and markers, all subtle indications that, for whatever reason, we are not overly happy in the now.

But what of the present day? Some would contend that, to borrow from Billy Joel, this is the time to

remember (cause it will not last forever…la, la, la).

And they would be correct.

Difficult as it may be to step back and appreciate our current situation, whatever it may be, we may find that it was quite ideal in hindsight.

No one knows what the next year, or month, or week, or even day, will bring.

And there’s really not much sense dwelling on this vast unknown, as much of it is beyond our control. The important things, like family and friends and health and happiness… unfortunately, we can only do so much to maintain our little bubble

of complacency before some outside force pops it.

They say you should find the positive in everything, make the most of adverse situations, and do at least one thing each day for you… but how many of us do? No, we would rather move robotically through life, obsessing over each obstacle, letting the slightest bump in the road throw us completely off course.

One day, today will be the flashback we choose to highlight on some virtual “wall.”

Let’s try enjoying it in real time.

As we wave goodbye to winter, it is easy to forget that there are people out there without a home, food or even shoes. The homeless are at an exponential disadvantage when it comes to adverse weather.

We often complain about the trials of winter, but do we really have it so bad? Just having a house to go back to at the end of the day is an asset that we all take for granted.

Many people don’t have heat. There is no relief at the end of an afternoon commute. Sure, they have no driveway to shovel, but they also

end up sleeping on the streets in the middle of a snowstorm.

A few weeks ago, I took part in a Midnight Run. We went to the city and gave out bags of clothes to those who needed them the most. They were eternally grateful for our contributions.

One man even tried to give us a thank you gift.

Despite the fact that they have so little, the homeless people that we met proved to be some of the most generous.

Even though some people regard them as “bums,” the homeless are fighting an uphill battle each and every

day. If one thinks living on minimum wage is tough, try surviving on change.

Although I have no firsthand experience in the realm of the homeless, I can imagine just how hard it may be.

People can be intolerant of the homeless. They wave them away when all they ask for is change. There is no daily salvation for this group of people that are trying so dearly just to make it.

Before you curse the weather while waiting for your car to heat up, remember the men and women who are sleeping in the snow.

As Valentine’s Day approached, students in Carol Wilson’s fifthgrade class at Timber Point Elementary School embarked on a Pillows for Patients project in conjunction with the school’s February character education trait

of kindness.

Taking time from their recess, the altruistic students created pillows and valentines for donation to the Steven and Alexandra Cohen Children’s Medical Center of New York in New Hyde Park.

“The children truly

enjoyed this random act of kindness for other children, helping to spread cheer and happiness for others in need,” said Wilson. “Their community service is remarkable.”

Big, Colorful Ideas For Small Spaces

DMD FLOORING & CARPENTRY ASK FOR DAN

631-889-1688 RESIDENTIAL • COMMERCIAL

( N A P S I ) — T h e C(NAPSI)—Making a small room appear larger can be as simple as using color creatively. To add some breathing room to a compact space, all you need are some colorful ideas.

“Color is one of the easiest, most affordable ways to transform the look and feel of a room,” says David Bromstad, HGTV® star and celebrity interior designer. “When used in a few well-chosen places, such as a feature wall or statement piece of furniture, color can have a big impact in a small space.”

Bromstad offers these color tips for transforming a space from tiny to airy: Create a focal point with paint. Paint a statement wall that draws attention away from the size of your space and toward something beautiful and vibrant. Bright or bold colors work well, as the

wall can appear to recede, creating the illusion of space.

Go big with lighter and softer colors. In areas beyond the feature wall, use lighter and softer colors to make the space seem larger. Light blues and greens add significant light subtly to a room.

Coordinate your colors.

Stretch your space and maximize impact by using color to coordinate your rooms and decor. HGTV® HOME by SherwinWilliams offers precoordinated collections of color, paint and wallpaper.

The color palettes can be used to ensure that your walls, furniture and accessories help create a cohesive look.

Reflect upon something.

Placed opposite a window or side by side, mirrors can spread light throughout the room to make spaces feel larger. A tall mirror draws the eye up, making ceilings look taller. When

angled toward your room’s focal wall, a mirror can also create the illusion of depth.

Paint something unexpected. Think beyond your walls and consider painting your mailbox or address numbers on your home, a stairway banister or a piece of furniture.

Add a colorful punctuation point by transforming a bedroom nightstand bright blue or a desk chair in an unexpected orange.

Everything else in the room will appear larger.

“Clever use of color adds the illusion of space and injects personality into it as well. That’s what’s great about color; you can dramatically alter the look of a room while expressing yourself in a fun way,” Bromstad adds.

For additional inspiration and information on HGTV HOME by SherwinWilliams, visit www. sherwin-williams.com/ hgtv.

It is an exciting time at St. John the Baptist Diocesan High School as the top student-athletes are selecting their colleges.

The SJB community is proud to celebrate the accomplishments of the following athletes who signed letters of intent to play for Division 1 universities: Jake Wiswall, Great River resident – Football Bryant University Faith Daley, Amityville resident – Girls Soccer -

Fairfield University The National Letter of Intent (NLI) is a document used by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) to indicate a student athlete’s commitment to participating in interscholastic athletics in the United States.

“I am thrilled Faith is going to Fairfield. Her coach is alumnus Jim O’Brien who has started a great SJB connection.

Her strong work ethic and

desire to win will make her a success, and I wish her all the best. She will be greatly missed on the SJB soccer field,” said Lorraine Bouklas, Girls’ Athletic Director.

As Ralph Dalton, Boy’s Athletic Director states, “Jake has been a leader on and off the football Field.

He will be a great asset to Bryant and we will miss him and his leadership in our football program. His hard work has paid off.

Congratulations to Jake!”

Teens For Jeans

For the third consecutive year, members of the Islip High School Junior Chamber of Commerce organized a fundraiser that helped collect new and gently used jeans as part of Aéropostale and dosomething.org’s Teens for Jeans campaign.

Working with Keep Islip Clean, Leg. Tom Cilmi’s office and the Town of Islip Youth Bureau’s contract

agency South Shore Community Organization, Islip High School collected 373 pairs of jeans, which were combined with jeans from other area high schools totaling more than 1,200 jeans.

“This program helps build character and compassion among high school students,” said Junior Chamber adviser Renée Clock. “It also

increases awareness among teens of social responsibility and encourages them to take leadership positions in the community.”

Once collected, all of the jeans were dropped off at Aéropostale, which then distributed the pants to local teens living in homeless shelters.

Recognized By Albany

Consumers Should Take Advantage Of Free Credit Reports ( N A P S I ) — T h e Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) found that many consumers are overwhelmed by the amount of information available to help them learn more about the financial services marketplace. At the same time, the CFPB found one of the most popular resources offered is information about credit reports.

The credit bureaus have found that information about credit reports is popular as well. “Each year, there are over 25 million

free credit reports provided to consumers,” said Stuart K. Pratt, president and CEO of the Consumer Data Industry Association. “And while that’s a significant number, there are still a considerable number of consumers who aren’t exercising their option to get their report. According to a survey done by VantageScore and the Consumer Federation of America, 37 percent of consumers have never obtained a copy of their credit report,” he added.

Consumers can get a free

credit report from each of the three nationwide credit bureaus, Equifax, Experian and Trans-Union, once a year by going to www. annualcreditreport.com.

The process is easy and enables consumers to have real-time access to their credit reports.

“Many people get annual medical checkups. We encourage consumers to be just as conscientious when it comes to their personal finances; get an annual credit checkup by obtaining your free credit report,” added Pratt.

Exceptional artwork by junior Megan Ludwig and sophomore Megan McClintock, both students at East Islip High School, has been selected for display in Albany at the 24th Annual New York State Art Teachers Association Legislative Exhibit this March.

The NYSATA Legislative Exhibit, co-sponsored by the New York State Alliance for the Arts in

Education, showcases New York’s art programs and gives young student-artists the opportunity to receive statewide recognition.

Organized by NYSATA in collaboration with New York State United Teachers and state legislators, the exhibit is held each spring in the Legislative Well in Albany’s Capitol Building.

Legislators from across New York State celebrate the artistic

accomplishments of their aspiring artist constituents at a March 6th opening reception for students, parents and teachers.

“They saved my heart and became part of my life.”

Raphaela Henning, cardiac patient

“I

’ve had a heart murmur since childhood that my doctors always watched. Then a recent electrocardiogram revealed I had a serious narrowing of my arteries, and before I knew it, I was facing a heart valve replacement. Southside Hospital’s cardiac team totally put my mind at ease and treated me like family for my entire stay, even after I got home. Now I’m feeling great and hold everyone on my team close to my heart.”

Right by your side.

Our Follow Your Heart Program ensures cardiac patients that the same team members who cared for them at Southside Hospital oversee their progress once they return home. In Raphaela Henning’s case, a team of nurse practioners and physician assistants visited her home on multiple occasions. They monitored her vital signs, reviewed and adjusted medications, and offered encouragement to her family.

Naturally Lowering Cholesterol (NAPSI)—If living a healthier life is your cup of tea, you may be interested in an easy way to improve your health—using the natural antioxidant powers of tea.

Almost half of all Americans are overweight and have dangerously high levels of cholesterol.

Heart attacks are still the No. 1 killer in the U.S. The problem is that high cholesterol and your risk may be greater than you think.

According to American Heart Association guidelines, the acceptable level of “bad cholesterol” is 30 percent lower than

it used to be only a few years ago. This means that millions of Americans, including those who never dreamed they were at risk, now are.

Fortunately, there are natural, nonprescription alternatives for lowering cholesterol. For example, heart-healthy products such as TeaFlavin, an all-natural, caffeine-free capsule made from tea extract, contain as much cholesterol-fighting power as 35 cups of green tea.

For more information on TeaFlavin, visit www. teaflavin.com or call (800) 876-4332.

East Islip graduate (2001), champion wrestler, motivational speaker and double-leg amputee Rohan Murphy recently spoke with students at JFK Middle School in Bethpage.

Students were inspired by Rohan’s athleticism and positive attitude, despite the fact that he had both legs amputated at the age of 4. “No one ever made fun of me, or bullied me when I was in school,”

Rohan said. “But I wanted to overcome my disability and be something great.”

He explained how a middle school gym teacher helped to change his life forever by introducing him to the sport of wrestling. “I never quit and I was always willing to work harder than anyone else and take a challenge.”

He told students how he worked hard to perfect his wrestling skills and

eventually went on to compete at Penn State.

Rohan demonstrated some of his moves for students and illustrated how despite his lack of legs, he could run laps and stay in shape with his teammates. He left students with the words, his motto, “No excuses… anything is possible. If I was able to succeed in life without any legs, why can’t you succeed?”

Three seventh-graders at East Islip Middle School – bassist Peter Gerace III, violinist Victoria Keenan and viola player Joshua Koretz – were selected for participation in the competitive Long Island String Festival Association’s All-County Middle School Orchestra, in which they met with their peers across the county to rehearse for

two days, ending with a performance.

The superlative East Islip student-musicians, recognized as being among the top string orchestra players in Suffolk County in their age group, were selected by LISFA based on recommendations from their orchestra teacher and their high scores at last spring’s New York State School Music Association

Caring For Granite Countertops (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.

Professor Of Prose

Stony Brook University’s Andrew Flescher, PhD, was awarded first place by the American Association of Publishers (AAP) with a Professional and Scholarly Excellence (PROSE) Award for his book, Moral Evil, in the publishing category of Theology and Religious Studies. Dr. Flescher is an Associate Professor in the Departments of Preventive Medicine and English, and he is a member of the Core Faculty in the Program in Public Health at Stony Brook Medicine.

The AAP’s annual awards program, established in 1976, recognizes the very best in professional and scholarly publishing in more than 40 categories.

The PROSE Award entries are judged by peer publishers, librarians, and medical professionals.

“I’m stunned to receive this award for my book,

which in essence about the subtle but far reaching consequences of human inaction,” said Dr. Flescher.

“I am deeply grateful for all of the insightful people at Stony Brook and elsewhere with whom I conferred over the last four years about the topic and those who helped me to refine my thinking at every stage of the project.”

In the acknowledgements section of his book, Dr. Flescher explains that the book is a result of exploring the nature of evil over the past decade with students and colleagues.

“Rather than asking about its quantitative reduction or qualitative reinterpretation, I am interested in what we do with the fact of evil. What is a morally constructive model for dealing with the problem of evil? What are the best resources within our religious and moral traditions for thinking about evil in a manner conducive to human flourishing? Whence the motivation for another book about evil,” writes Dr. Flescher in the book’s introduction.

Dr. Flescher uses four models to help the reader understand the concepts of moral evil: the presence

of badness, the presence of goodness, the absence of badness, and the absence of goodness, which he explores in the first four chapters. In the fifth and final chapter, Dr. Flescher explores evil as inaction and the achievement of moral betterment to help overcome evil.

In a review of Dr. Flescher’s book, Diana Fritz Cates, PhD, Professor and Chair, Department of Religious Studies at the University of Iowa wrote, “What is moral evil, and why do people so often fall into its clutches? Flescher’s analysis is penetrating and ethically unflinching. At the same time, it reflects great compassion. This book ought to be read by everyone who longs for goodness and is pained by its absence.”

Dr. Flescher has written two other books, Heroes, Saints, and Ordinary Morality and The Altruistic Species: Scientific, Philosophical, and Religious Perspectives of Human Benevolence.

Carry-On Made Easier (NAPSI)-Doing a little homework before you travel could save you time at the airport.

For instance, visiting www.TSA.gov, the Transportation Security Administration’s Web site, can help you learn what

items can be packed in carry-on and which are best left in checked suitcases.

Money Management 101

(NAPSI)—Teens are more optimistic about their financial future but may depend longer on their parents, according to a major new survey. Teens also expressed concern over paying for higher education.

Among the Teens and Personal Finance Survey’s key findings, conducted

by Junior Achievement USA® and The Allstate Foundation: • More than half of teens think students are borrowing too much to pay for college, yet only 9 percent report they are currently saving money for college.

• Nearly 30 percent have not talked with their parents about paying for college.

• Nearly one in three Catch Your Dreams The future belongs to teens thinks he or she will those who believe in the be 25 to 27 years old before becoming financially beauty of their dreams.

• Teens are unsure about

their ability to budget (23 percent), use credit cards (20 percent) or invest money (34 percent).

• The majority of teens (76 percent) still report the best time to learn about money management is in kindergarten through high school, but only 29 percent reported programs currently in place.

• Of the 33 percent of teens who say they do not use a budget, 42 percent are “not interested” and more than a quarter (26 percent) think “budgets are for adults.”

• More than one-third of teens are either unsure or think their parents do not talk with them enough about money and budgeting.

“From our findings, we can infer that teens expect to live with their parents longer. It is interesting to see this shift in teens thinking they will remain financially dependent

on their parents,” said Jack E. Kosakowski, president and chief executive officer of Junior Achievement USA. Since 2005, the organization, in partnership with The Allstate Foundation, has helped more than 1.2 million students set personal goals about money and make wise financial choices.

The program, JA Economics for Success®, also empowers students to develop, plan and set goals to help protect themselves from unexpected financial pitfalls.

According to Don Civgin, president and chief executive officer of Allstate Financial, there is an urgent need for parents and children to broach the subject. “Parents continue to be the No. 1 influence on teens when it comes to money,” he said, “so there is tremendous opportunity for family conversation.”
