No More New Year’s Resolutions?
By JoAnn Cilla
Every year, millions of people around the world make New Year’s resolutions, only to find themselves struggling to keep them just a few weeks into the New Yea. But what if there was a better way to make lasting changes in your life? Instead of waiting until January 1st to declare your intentions, why not start on your path to change in September, right after Labor Day?
This year, the day after Labor Day until the end of the year is exactly 120 days. That’s 120 days to make meaningful changes in your life, giving yourself plenty of time to prepare and adjust. You can also choose to make it 100 days or even 90 days, depending on what works best for you. The key
is to give yourself enough time and space to make the changes you want, without the pressure of a New Year’s deadline.
Imagine dancing into 2026 because you made the change you wanted to make. By starting in the fall, you give yourself the opportunity to gradually implement new
habits and routines, making them more sustainable in the long run. This approach allows you to ease into your new lifestyle, rather than diving in headfirst on January 1st and potentially setting yourself up for failure.
This extended period allows you to build momentum and see real progress, making it more likely that you’ll stick with your new habits. It also recognizes that, sometimes in life, we take two steps up and one step back. When it comes to change, success is almost never a straight line.
So, find something that you’ve been wanting to change and start your journey this fall. Whether it’s getting in shape, learning a new skill, or breaking a bad habit, give yourself the gift of time and start making those changes now. By the time the New Year rolls around, you’ll already be well on your way to a better, happier you… and it’s a great present to give yourself this holiday season!

What Is Rosh Hashanah?
The arrival of a new year is celebrated each January 1. But that’s not the only fresh start people celebrate each year. Within the Jewish community, a new year is celebrated months before the first day of January.
Rosh Hashanah is a Jewish holiday, the name of which translates to “head of the year.” Rosh Hashanah is celebrated at the beginning of the month of Tishrei, which is the seventh month of the Jewish calendar year, according to My Jewish Learning. Much like the New Year celebrated in January, Rosh Hashanah is both a time to rejoice and reflect. Many people celebrate the completion of another year by taking stock of their lives and what they can do in the coming year to improve their lives, the community and the world. Jews celebrate Rosh Hashanah as a time for prayer, selfreflection and repentance.
Rosh Hashanah is widely observed by Jews throughout the world, many of whom pray and reflect in a synagogue during the holiday. The organization Reform Judaism says observances also include certain customs that take place
at home. Here are some notable components of Rosh Hashanah.
• Rosh Hashanah is a two-day observance that ushers in a ten-day period of repentance known as the Days of Awe. That period culminates on Yom Kippur, which is known as the Day of Atonement.
• Although Rosh Hashanah is believed to have originated in biblical times, the Bible does not refer to a “new year” or “day of judgement.”
• Challah is traditionally eaten on Rosh Hashanah. Challah is a round bread symbolizing the eternal cycle of life. The bread is often dipped in honey, which symbolizes hopes for a sweet new year.
• In addition to challah, people also enjoy apples dipped in honey to symbolize sweetness.
• Prayers from the Mahzor are read, and three unique sets of prayers are added to the morning service during Rosh Hashanah. This includes prayers to address the sovereignty of God,
presenting God as the one who remembers past deeds, and a prayer for anticipation of the future.
• The sounding of the shofar is one of the most recognizable symbols of the holiday. It is a Jewish ritual horn, traditionally made from a ram’s horn.
• Another popular tradition associated with Rosh Hashanah is a ceremony that occurs on the afternoon of the first day. People throw crumbs or pieces of bread into flowing water, symbolizing their sins.
Rosh Hashanah is an important holiday in the Jewish religion. It marks the beginning of a new, and hopefully sweet, new year.
2nd Annual Trail Of Truth March To The Sea Brings Powerful Visual Memorial To Long Island Families Braved Rain
To Place ‘Tombstones’ In The Sand To Expose The Ongoing Toll Of Fentanyl And The Opioid Epidemic
The rainy and dreary weather on Sunday, September 7 did not deter the more than 50 people who came out for the Second Annual Long Island Trail of Truth – March to the Sea. The shoreline at Robert Moses Beach, Field 5, was transformed into a striking memorial as grieving families from across Long Island carried handcrafted tombstones to the water’s edge. The Second Annual March to the Sea honored lives lost to substance-use related causes and confronts the deadly rise of fentanyl in the local drug supply.
The National Trail of Truth movement was established 10 years ago by Truth Pharm and Trail of Truth founder Alexis Pleus. Alexis also serves on a statewide coalition to End Overdose in NY and she’s the Co-chair for the New York State Harm Reduction Association. She serves on the National Coalition for Harm Reduction Funding and the Opioid Network.
Part public art installation, part healing ceremony, the Trail of
Truth pairs emotion with striking visuals. Participants walked together toward the surf, placing memorial tombstones in the sand against the backdrop of the iconic Fire Island Lighthouse. Each marker had the name and face of a loved one, revealing the staggering scope of loss hidden behind the statistics.
“This is a memorial arts project that memorializes loved ones lost to substance use issues,” said Mia Huese, of Truth Pharm, said. “For many people the making of the tombstones can be an outlet for their grief.”
The National Trail of Truth will take place in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, Sept. 27. For more information visit: https://www.trailoftruth. org
Lori Carbonaro, who lost her son Nicholas in 2014, and organized the event, said “The March to the Sea is a safe, non-judgmental place to remember our loved ones, to say their names, to share who they were, who we knew...not
only what happened to them, they were more ...so much more. Hopefully by us being here it will be impactful enough to help those who are still suffering.”
Steve Chassman, Executive Director of the Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug
Dependence (LICADD), said:
“As we remember those lost amid the devastating opioid epidemic, we walk along the shores of Long Island contemplating much needed improvements to public health, empathetic prevention strategies and
more universal access to quality treatment on demand. We remember those loved and lost but continue to voice our support of individuals and families who remain in the struggle of substance use disorder (SUD) in informing them that help is available, Narcan
is accessible and quality resources for treatment exist. These are the universal missions of The Trail of Truth, LICADD, GGT, FIST and all those lending a helping hand in service to others in need.”

PSEG Long Island Helps Return Juvenile Osprey To Nest
PSEG Long Island assisted wildlife conservation partners in returning a juvenile osprey to the Oyster Bay nest from where it had been rescued in July.
The young bird was one of three chicks raised by the osprey parents that have nested on the PSEG Long Island-sponsored nesting platform for several years. PSEG Long Island maintains a 24/7 webcam on the nest, which is how the chick’s health problems became known.
After the bird was rescued, it was given a veterinary examination and then placed in the care of Sweetbriar Nature Center, where it spent about five weeks regaining its strength. Once the young osprey demonstrated it could fly on its own, PSEG Long Island provided the equipment and support to wildlife experts as they placed the osprey back in its nest, where food is left
by the osprey parents so their juvenile offspring can eat before fall arrives and the birds migrate south.
“PSEG Long Island is pleased that we were able to play a role in rescuing this young bird and giving it the best chance of thriving in the wild,” said David Lyons, interim president and COO of PSEG Long Island. “We work closely with wildlife conservation partners to protect osprey from highvoltage equipment because good environmental stewardship is part of being strongly involved in the community, and because it also improves reliability for customers.”
In balancing its commitment to the consistent, safe delivery of power for its customers with its commitment to being a good environmental steward, PSEG Long Island installs protective equipment to deter the returning birds
from nesting on electrical equipment, which puts both the raptors and the electrical system in danger. On occasion, it has installed nesting platforms.
Osprey are wild animals that are extremely uncomfortable with human encounters. Osprey parents have been known to abandon nests with eggs or chicks when they encounter something they perceive as a large predator—like
humans—in the nest. To avoid imperiling the other two osprey fledglings, wildlife conservation experts advised against any intervention effort until the healthy offspring had shown they could fly on their own.
Ospreys build their nests on the tallest structure near a body of water. To proactively monitor its utility poles for osprey nests, PSEG Long Island partners closely with
Group for the East End, a nonprofit organization that has advocated for the protection and preservation of nature on the East End since 1972. Volunteers with the nonprofit conduct their own surveys of the area and share osprey data with the company, which maintains a team dedicated to mitigating risks and relocating nests safely and in accordance with all regulations protecting the
wildlife.
According to a 2023 report issued by the Group for the East End, osprey breeding activity on the East End increased by 200% in eight years, with 199 active nests in 2014 growing to 477 in the summer of 2022.

Fall begins slightly after the midpoint of September. The arrival of fall may be met with joy that cooler temperatures and vividly colored leaves will soon be the norm. For others, the arrival of fall is met with some trepidation that shorter days will soon pave the way for less sunlight and the inevitable arrival of winter. Fall begins on Monday, September 22, 2025, at 2:19 PM, in the Northern Hemisphere on what is known as the autumnal equinox.
Equinoxes are days during the year when the hours of sunlight and darkness are just about equal, or lasting 12 hours each. At the
moment the equinox occurs, the sun will be directly over the Earth’s equator, which contributes to this even distribution of day and nighttime hours. National Geographic describes the equinox as “the event in which a planet’s subsolar point passes through its Equator. It is when solar declination is 0 degrees.”
Solar declination refers to the latitude of Earth where the sun is directly overhead at noon. The equinoxes are the only times when both the northern and southern hemispheres experience roughly equal amounts of daytime and nighttime.
After the autumnal equinox, the subsolar point continues to move south as
the southern hemisphere tilts toward the sun. Around December 21, the subsolar point hits the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5 degrees S), which marks the winter (December) solstice, or the day with the fewest hours of daylight during the year in the northern hemisphere.
It’s important to note that the equinoxes and
solstices are opposite in the hemispheres. The northern hemisphere’s fall equinox occurs on the same day as the southern hemisphere’s vernal (spring) equinox. The autumnal equinox is a time when hours of daylight and nighttime are equal, something that will not occur again until the arrival of spring.
