School students, employees, volunteers, staff and the general public can pick up designated coin jars at Pal-O-Mine and then collect change in all denominations. The jars can be returned to Pal-O-Mine in conjunction with one of its themed “collection days” whereby the jars dropped off, weighed and a contest held for the heaviest jar. There will be three opportunities to win special Pal-O-Mine prizes: one on Halloween Day, another during Thanksgiving week and the last one on New Year’s Day.

We are also very appreciative of the generosity of Empire National Bank in its decision to match the first $10,000 raised through our coin challenge campaign.”

Empire has been a steadfast supporter of Pal-O-Mine’s mission for over 10 years.

Osteoarthritis Explained…

Our Treatment is Non-Surgical!

About Arthritis Knee Pain Centers

Osteoarthritis is also known as degenerative joint disease and is the most common type of arthritis. When osteoarthritis occurs, the surface layer of cartilage around the knee breaks down and wears away. The bones that connect at the knee joint then rub together with no cushion resulting in pain, swelling, and loss of motion in the joint. While the disease can progress quickly, in most people it develops gradually over a period of years.

Our treatment has been thoroughly tested by the FDA over many clinical trials and is designed specifically for those with knee pain. Its effectiveness is proven and is improved through the use of state-of-the-art live motion fluoroscopy which allows doctors to see exactly where the problem is occurring.

Our doctors at Arthritis Knee Pain Centers have decades of experience and are invested in utilizing the most cutting-edge technologies and methodologies to serve their patients. Through their experience they can customize a treatment plan that’s right for you. The Arthritis Knee Pain Centers offers hope and healing for your knee pain.

Osteoarthritis is Not Your Fault…

It’s not your fault that you have osteoarthritis. There are many reasons why this disease afflicts people. Heredity can be a major cause of osteoarthritis. If a parent or grandparent had it, it may be passed down to you.

Other reasons for developing osteoarthritis include: • Being overweight (medical factors can impact this, not just over-eating) • Aging (wear and tear) • Joint injury (falls, sport injuries) • Joints aren’t properly aligned or are imbalanced • Genetic defects in the joint cartilage • Undue stress on joints from work, sports, etc.

Call right now

1-833-489-1538 Or Log On To:

www.arthritiskneepain.com/smithtown

Here’s How Our Treatment Works…

Our advanced technology allows our doctors to see the exact location in the knee where the greatest damage is.

This is done through special imaging called flouroscopy.

Once the affected area is located, an FDA-approved viscosupplementation gel is injected at the exact point where it will do the most good. From there, the healing process begins. The gel bonds with the existing natural fluid in the knee to create a lubricating and cushioning layer in the knee between the bones. This reduces pain, swelling and inflammation in the joint. Most patients feel improvement quickly and can resume activities they hadn’t previously been able to do because of the pain.

Islip Rotary, whose motto is, “Service Above Self,” is a global network of 1.2 million business and other leaders, as well as neighbors and friends to see a world where people unite and take action.

They work to create lasting change across the globe and in local communities.

The food drive is collecting non-perishable items, such as pasta, rice, beans, peanut butter, jelly, cereal, mac and cheese, juice boxes, crackers, cookies, salt, pepper, cake/ brownie mixes, canned tuna and chicken, stuffing mix, soup, canned gravy, tomato sauce, condensed milk, pudding (boxed, not prepared) jello, apple sauce, canned vegetables and fruit, kid-friendly treats, cleaning supplies, laundry supplies, toiletries, pet food, baby products, etc. Please don’t donate anything that can spoil.

Said St. Mark’s Rector, the Very Reverend Richard E. Simpson, “We’re delighted to join forces with Islip Rotary. This was one of the original service clubs in the U.S., and all efforts are driven by the local clubs,” he said. “ Islip Rotarians participate in

such important projects as “Stand Up to Poverty,” which is a medical mission in Port au Prince, Haiti and “Gift of Life,” which builds sustainable pediatric cardiac programs throughout the globe.”

Father Simpson is also quick to point out that this is a nonsectarian event. You don’t need to be Episcopalian or live in Islip to participate, he said.

“The most important thing is to collect many food donations.”

“This is an important issue and we are happy to join with St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Islip.

Currently, it is estimated by the end of 2020, due to the effects of the global pandemic and massive unemployment, over 54 million Americans will be food insecure. At least 18 million of them will be children. The food pantries are struggling to keep up and we’ve all seen pictures of those long lines,” said Islip Chapter President, Astrid Fidelia.

People are encouraged to donate. If anyone wants to volunteer, please call the St. Mark’s Episcopal church office at 631-5814950 and ask for Irene.

JOINING FORCES TO FIGHT FOOD INSECURITY - In an effort to expand community outreach and create the most impact, St. Mark’s Episcopal Church and Islip Rotary are joining forces. They will host the Islip church’s monthly outdoor drive-by food drop on Saturday, November 7 from 9:00 to 2:00 at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, 754 Montauk Highway, Islip. Tables will be set up in front of the church doors which face St. Mark’s Lane, Islip.

ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 28, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

This year has been anything but ordinary. The outbreak of the COVID-19 virus has proved extremely challenging especially for the hospitality industry.

That has not stopped Woodloch Pines, an allinclusive family resort located in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains, from forging forward however.

Every autumn, staff and guests alike anticipate gorgeous changing foliage, crisp cooler air, delectable fall treats, and the most exciting of all, spooky Halloween programming.

For over 25 years now, Woodloch has been thrilling guests with its signature haunted hayrides, one of the family resort’s most popular annual attractions. Given this year’s pandemicrelated challenges, haunted hayrides were not a possibility. They have morphed into something even more eerie and exciting however -- haunted walks. The walks fit seamlessly into Woodloch’s “Resort Responsibly” model, which ensures that both guests and staff adhere to the highest-level safety precautions.

Guests are able to prereserve walk times and remain within their own private groups as they wind their way through the resort’s heavily wooded nature trail, transformed to mimic 10 scenes from popular Wes Craven

In an effort to expand community outreach and create the most impact, St. Mark’s Episcopal Church and Islip Rotary are joining forces. They will host the Islip church’s monthly outdoor drive-by food drop on Saturday, November 7 from 9:00 to 2:00 at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, 754 Montauk Highway, Islip. Tables will be set up in front of the church doors which face St. Mark’s Lane, Islip.

The event is run entirely by volunteers. People don’t even need to get out of their cars if they don’t wish to; they can pop the trunk and volunteers will collect the donations.

Masks and social distancing are required, however, if they do choose to come out of their cars.

All food will be donated to God’s Provisions, Inc., an organization that distributes to the food pantries throughout Suffolk County including Amityville, The Islips, Bay Shore, Patchogue, Quogue, Huntington Station, Dix Hills and more. St. Mark’s has a 20 years-plus relationship with them.

The organization is run by Dana Jahn.

FOR THE FAMILY

According to Smithsonian.com, the Halloween tradition of trick-or-treating traces its origins to the Celtic tradition of dressing up as evil spirits at the end of the year, but unlike the trick-or-treaters of today, the Celts did not dress up for fun or in search of candy. According to Celtic belief, the dead and the living would overlap

during the transition from one year to the next. Celts also believed that demons would roam the earth during this transition period. So Celts dressed up as evil spirts so the demons they believed were walking the earth would mistake them as one of their own.

It was not just the Celts who contributed to what Halloween has become today. Historians believe

that trick-or-treating may also be rooted in the medieval practice of “souling,” in which poor children would go from door-to-door on All Souls’ Day and ask for food in exchange for prayers for the dead, both Celtic traditions and the practice of souling no doubt contributed to modern Halloween traditions.

The Benefits Of Local Newspapers Local newspapers play vital roles in communities across the globe. The Information Age has changed the way many people get their news, but local newspapers continue to serve as valuable resources for readers interested in learning more about and becoming more involved in their communities.

While local publishers continue to adapt to the changes brought about by technology, the following are a handful of benefits unique to local newspapers.

• Local newspapers keep readers upto-date on their own communities.

Globalization may be here to stay, but that does not mean local communities are no longer home to newsworthy events.

National and international

newspapers and 24-hour cable news channels can keep men and women up-to-date on national and world news, but in many instances, local newspapers are the only means people have to learn about what’s going on in their own communities.

Local politics impact residents’ lives every day, and local newspapers cover local politics extensively.

• Local newspapers benefit nearby businesses.

Small business owners often connect with community members via local

newspapers. A strong, locally based small business community can improve economies in myriad ways, creating jobs in the community and contributing tax dollars that can be used to strengthen local schools and infrastructure. And local newspapers do their part by providing affordable and effective advertising space to local business owners looking to connect with their communities.

• Local newspapers can strengthen communities.

It’s not often that middle schoolers can claim to be published authors, but for 42 Islip students, the assertion is valid.

Last year, while enrolled in Steven Taff’’s eighth grade Honors English class at Islip Middle School, they wrote short pieces for the Survival Sagas fiction

writing contest “Mission Contamination: It’s Going Viral....Tales from New York.” Inspired by the theme of “contamination,” whether from a natural mutation, a chemical attack or a manmade experiment gone wrong, the students – all now freshmen at Islip High School – crafted

original tales of fear and redemption, grim sacrifice and struggles of survival against the odds, in just 100 words. The resulting minisagas by these young writers were recently published in a “Mission Contamination” anthology paperback book, which can be read in the middle school’s library.

FREE Assistance Enrolling In Medicaid Just A Phone Call Away Coronavirus leaves many LIers without jobs, many now eligible for public insurance Bi-lingual health insurance enrollers who specialize in assisting adults and children who are blind or disabled or anyone over the age of 65 are just a phone call away.

The assistance, provided by the not-for-profit agency Nassau-Suffolk

Hospital Council (NSHC), is free. Call 631-656-9783 and press option 2.

“Screening individuals for Medicaid eligibility and assisting them with filing their application is a service we have provided for 20 plus years – always free.

Those who have lost their jobs during this pandemic may be eligible for Medicaid, and that provides some measure

of relief during these difficult times,” said Stacy Villagran, Senior Director of Insurance Enrollment at NSHC. “No one should hesitate to call our special enrollment telephone number.”

More information available at NSHC’s insurance enrollment website www. coverage4healthcare.org.

Like many days that came before it in 2020, Election Day figures to be unique this year. The global COVID-19 pandemic has changed many aspects of life as people know it, and it figures to change how they vote this fall as well.

The right to vote and participate in a representative government should never be taken for granted. Many people across the globe have no such right, so citizens of the United States should be grateful they can vote and express that gratitude by doing their part and voting each year on Election Day. State and local governments may be approaching Election Day differently as they try to juggle their responsibilities to make voting accessible to all while simultaneously keeping voters safe during the pandemic. Voters can do their part by taking the following steps prior to Election Day, which is November 3, 2020.

• Confirm you are registered to vote. Voter registration deadlines

differ by state. According to Vote.org, some states, including Colorado and Connecticut, allow eligible voters to register on Election Day and cast their ballots that very same day, but many states, such as Alaska, Hawaii and Louisiana, require voters to be registered 30 days prior to Election Day. A list of state-by-state voter registration requirements can be found at www.vote. org/voter-registrationdeadlines/.

• Learn the mail-in ballot policy in your state.

Many voters may not vote via mail-in ballots on a typical Election Day, but 2020 is not a typical year.

The NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc. notes that all states offer some form of mailin ballots. Many states are asking voters to vote via mail-in ballots in 2020 in an effort to reduce voters’ risk of getting and spreading the COVID-19 virus. Confirm the mail-in ballot policy and procedure in your state as early as possible to make sure your vote is counted.

• Return your completed mail-in ballot as soon as possible. Many states are urging voters who plan to vote using mail-in ballots to return their ballots as early as possible. In a mailer sent to all registered voters, the Superintendent of Elections and the Board of Elections in New Jersey noted it is critical that voters return their mailin ballots early in the upcoming election season.

Mail-in ballots can be returned via the United States Postal Service (all ballots include postage paid return envelopes), and voters also may be able to return their ballots in person at their designated polling locations or by placing the ballots in secure ballot drop boxes.

Confirm your mail-in ballot return options with your local County Clerk of Elections well before Election Day. Election Day 2020 will be unique. Voters should not hesitate to take all necessary steps in advance of November 3 to ensure their votes are counted this fall.

Apple Origins Malus deomestica, or the common apple tree, is a descendent of apple trees that originated in Central Asia in what is now southern Kazakhstan.

Apples have been grown for thousands of years in Asia and Europe. The original apple tree was the wild apple, or Malus sieversii.

DNA analysis has confirmed that the wild apple is the progenitor of the cultivated apple enjoyed today.

European colonists likely brought apple seeds and trees with them when they emigrated to North America, introducing that part of the world to the

apple tree. Records from the Massachusetts Bay Company indicate that apples were being grown in New England as early as 1630. Americans also enjoy the popular story of Johnny Appleseed, who was believed to have distributed apple seeds and trees to settlers across the United States.

While apples can be produced from seeds, nowadays many apples are propagated by grafting so that they retain the parent tree’s characteristics of flavor, hardiness and insect resistance.

many different stories and tales throughout history. Apples are linked to the Biblical tale of Adam and Eve and their ultimate expulsion from the Garden of Eden.

However, the apple is never named in any of the religious texts as the fruit Eve picked from the tree of knowledge.

Apples have appeared in fairy tales and folklore.

The Brothers Grimm had the character “Snow White” fall ill after eating a poisoned apple. In Norse mythology, the goddess Iounn was the appointed keeper of golden apples that kept the Aesir young Apples and Symbolism forever.

Apples have become Apples have also the main symbols of played a role in science,

Most Popular Apple Varieties Many varieties of apple stand out as perennial favorites. In the United States, the Red Delicious is the country’s most popular grown apple. It was called the hawkeye when discovered in 1872.

The Golden Delicious is the second most popular grown apple in America.

The Delicious apples tend

to have mild, but grainy flesh that can fall apart when cooked, so they’re best used for snacking.

Cortland, Empire, Fuji, Gala, McIntosh, and Macoun are some of the other most popular varieties.

Those interested in baking with apples can select among Granny Smith, Jonagold and McIntosh. These apples tend to be crisp and tart and hold up better in recipes.

Apples have been enjoyed for thousands of years. While apples are a staple of autumn, they can be enjoyed all year long thanks to their widespread availability.

most notably Sir Isaac Newton’s study of gravity.

While myth surrounds the story of Newton and an apple falling from a nearby tree, it’s likely that witnessing an apple fall from a tree did spark something in the famed scientist.

Though apples are enjoyed across the globe, many people associate apples with the United States of America. That’s in spite of the fact that the first apples were cultivated on the opposite side of the world from North America in Asia.

There are more than 7,500 known cultivars of apples that produce various characteristics for flavor and appearance.

Apples are often a topic of discussion in the fall, when many trees produce their largest bounties of fruit. Autumn is a good time of year to take a closer look at apples, and explore some of the most popular varieties for picking and eating.

Local newspapers are great resources for residents who want to become more active in their communities and learn more about community events.

Local newspapers often showcase community events like carnivals, local theater productions and projects like park cleanups. These are great ways for readers to become more active in their communities and build stronger

communities as a result.

• Local newspapers can benefit children.

National newspapers may have little ageappropriate content to offer young children, but local newspapers tend to include more soft news items than national periodicals, and such stories typically are appropriate for young readers.

According to Newspapers in Education, students who participated in an NIE group in Florida performed significantly

better in spelling and vocabulary than nonreaders. Additional studies have indicated that students who use newspapers in the classroom perform better on standardized reading tests than those who do not use newspapers in class.

Many local newspapers have played vital roles in their communities for decades, providing a go-to resource for local readers and business owners.

Infectious diseases can strike at any time. Some of them cause relatively minor interruptions to daily life and often can resolve of their own accord when the body’s immune system mounts a successful defense. Other diseases can cause serious, even life-threatening symptoms

or spread rapidly, which makes it essential for medical professionals to help slow down or stop the transmission.

immunity has taken on renewed significance as the world has been battling COVID-19, the novel coronavirus introduced in late 2019. Herd immunity, which What Is Herd Immunity? is sometimes called “community Herd immunity is a term immunity,” “population that often arises in relation immunity” or “social immunity,” to infectious diseases. Herd refers to the indirect protection from infectious diseases that occurs when a large percentage of the population has become immune to that disease. If enough people are resistant to the cause of a disease, whether it is a bacteria or virus, that disease has nowhere to go and the spread stalls, according to WebMD. How Does Herd Immunity Occur?

There are two ways that herd immunity can occur. The first is when resistance develops naturally when the body is exposed to the virus or bacteria.

At this point, the immune system will produce antibodies to fight off the infection. After recovery, these antibodies are still circulating, and should exposure to the same disease occur again, the body can defend

against another infection.

Another way that herd immunity occurs is through vaccination. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that when the majority of people are vaccinated, it creates the same disease lockdown - fewer people get sick and fewer germs are able to spread from person to person. What’s more, even those who are not vaccinated, such as newborn babies or those who may not be able to get vaccinated due to chronic illnesses, will get some level of protection because the disease will not be spreading as readily within their communities.

When Is Herd Immunity Reached?

When enough of a population is immune to a pathogen it prevents further spread and herd immunity is apparent.

Diseases are different and herd immunity is reached based on the pathogen’s reproduction number, or R0. Essentially this boils down to how contagious the pathogen in question is.

WebMD says the R0 tells the

19

What Is Herd Immunity? average number of people that a single person with the virus can infect if those people aren’t already immune. The higher the R0, the greater number of people will need to be resistant to reach herd immunity. Measles, which is very contagious at an R0 of 12 to 18, requires 93 to 95 percent of the population to be immune for herd immunity to be reached.

The World Health Organization estimates the R0 for COVID-19 to be between 2 and 3. This means between 40 and 70 percent of the population will need to be immune to halt the spread.

In the case of COVID-19, it’s still unclear whether anyone can get reinfected, and whether antibodies produced for one strain can fend off another strain of this novel coronavirus. This reinfection mystery is what makes herd immunity - both through a vaccine or through natural exposure - challenging for epidemiologists in relation to COVID-19.

Herd immunity is an important factor in disease prevention.

Getting the facts about this phenomenon is important.
