Matty, Motor, and Sid are all one year old male cats that are overlooked for adoption because they are shy. All three grew up in the shelter and watched their more outgoing siblings get happy homes. They may take some time to learn to trust new people, but once their trust is earned they are loving, playful and sweet! These three boys are friends and would love to be in a furrever home together, but will adjust if they aren’t. Shy cats need quiet homes with patience and lots of love to give.

Consumers who want to support local businesses should know that positive product reviews can be a great and effective way to do just that. According to Business2Community.com, 88 percent of consumers trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations.

In addition, customers are likely to spend 31 percent more on a business with “excellent” reviews, while 72 percent of consumers say that positive reviews make them trust local businesses more.

The 2018 ReviewTrackers Online Reviews Stats report found that star ratings affect consumer behavior, as 80 percent of consumers say they trust 4-, 4.5- and 5-star ratings the most. The good news for consumers is that product reviews need not be long to be effective. ReviewTrackers notes that the average review is now roughly the size of a tweet and has gotten 65 percent shorter since 2010.

That means it’s simple, quick and effective to support local businesses via online reviews of their products.

for Christ’s mortality.

Many celebrants will bake ring-shaped cakes in which they will hide plastic baby figurines that are meant to symbolize Jesus Christ. The cake is called The Kings Ring, or Rosca de Reyes.

In Latin America, the three magi are more prominent figures than Santa Claus and are greatly revered by children and adults alike. Until the 19th century, the Epiphany may have been considered more important than Christmas day.

However, those tides have largely shifted outside of Latin America and areas dominated by large populations of people who have Latin American heritage.

Christmas and New Year’s garner considerable attention during holiday celebrations, but Three Kings Day also is an important date on the calendar for faithful Christians.

Vaccination Matters The American Academy of Family Physicians advises that adolescents and adults may need a one-time booster shot, called Tdap, to help protect against three diseases-whooping cough, tetanus and diphtheria.

Visit www.FamilyDoctor. org/VaccinationMatters for more information.

PUZZLE ANSWERS:

Traditions are the glue that hold many celebrations together.

Individuals and families embrace many customs that serve as the script for commemorating year-end holidays.

Some celebrants may adhere to traditions without really knowing how they began or why they continue. Here is a closer look at some of the most popular traditions tied to New Year’s Eve, both domestically and around the world.

Drinking champagne The use of champagne for celebrations is rooted in the Christian ritual of consuming wine during the Eucharist. In the year 496, a wine from the Champagne region of France was offered during the baptism of the Frankish warrior Clovis, according to the Champagne Committee of France. It then became customary for champagne to be used at religious events like consecrations and at coronations or soirees.

Eventually the tradition became associated with secular rituals, such as celebrating the new year.

Food People of Japanese

heritage might eat soba noodles on New Year’s Eve. The Toshikoshi Soba, which means “year crossing buckwheat noodle,” denotes the crossing from one year to the next. Nibbling the noodles represent traveling from one year to the next as well as letting go of the previous year’s regrets.

In Spain, people gobble grapes to bring good luck in the coming year. The goal is to eat 12 green grapes during the 12 remaining seconds until the New Year. Those able to do so will have 12 months of good fortune.

Dropping the ball Revelers have long watched the giant ball drop in New York City’s Times Square in person and on television. This tradition may be rooted in the custom of sailors using “time balls” to set their own timepieces while at sea. These chronometers were employed by using a spyglass to scan the harbor looking for balls that were dropped into the water at certain times, PBS reports.

The first ball was installed in 1829 in Portsmouth, England.

The Times Square ball was first used in 1907, according to the Times Square Alliance.

Making resolutions Historians trace the making of resolutions to the Ancient Babylonians.

Citizens made spoken resolutions during their new year festival known as “Akitu.” This ritual required making an oath to the sitting or new king.

Romans also swore oaths of loyalty to the emperor when the New Year started.

Fireworks and noisemakers Fireworks are a big part of celebrations and are not to be outdone on New Year’s Eve. Fireworks were invented in the seventh century in China.

According to Anthony Aveni, an astronomer and anthropologist at Colgate University, the fireworks were designed to ward off evil spirits. In cultures around the world, fireworks, banging drums and other efforts were used to chase away spooky creatures, especially during the transitional period that is the passing of the new year. Today fireworks and noisemakers are employed not for scaring away spirits, but rather to add to the revelry.

New Year’s Eve traditions abound, and many of these annual customs have interesting origin stories.

24 and then continues through Three Kings Day. While the four weeks preceding Christmas, also known as Advent, are supposed to be times of reflection and prayer in anticipation of the birth of Jesus Christ, the 12 days of Christmas are times of great celebration. On the Epiphany, children may leave their shoes out for presents in a similar fashion to the way stockings are hung.

Gifts are exchanged, reminiscent of the three gifts the magi presented to the Christ child of gold, frankincense oil and a resin called myrrh.

The gold represented Christ’s royal standing.

The frankincense marked Christ’s divine birth.

Finally, the myrrh stood

The holiday season begins with Thanksgiving, and many people believe that the festivities come to a close after ringing in the new year. In fact, for the faithful, the Christmas season does not end until January 6 (January 12 in Eastern churches).

January 6 marks the celebration of the Epiphany, sometimes referred to as Three Kings Day, Little Christmas, the Baptism of Jesus, and Día de los Reyes. The Epiphany is celebrated 12 days after December 25. In fact, that is where the phrase the Twelve Days of Christmas, and the song of the same name, originated.

Christians believe that the real celebration of the holiday season does not begin until December

Families Gather for Blessing of Christmas Trees and Ornaments at Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island Chapels Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island recently held a week-long series of Christmas Tree and Christmas Ornament blessing services at three of

its Cemeteries, Cemetery of the Holy Rood in Westbury, Holy Sepulchre Cemetery in Coram and Queen of All Saints Cemetery in Central Islip. Annually Catholic

Cemeteries of Long Island has offered special Christmas Ornament Masses at its Chapels. These events always had hundreds of people attending and bringing

CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT BLESSING - A Christmas Tree decorated with ornaments for the 2020 Christmas season stands in the mausoleum area of Cemetery of the Holy Rood in Westbury ready to be blessed with Holy Water. Pictured left to right are: Ellen Izbicki, Customer Service Coordinator, Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island, Deacon Thomas Hennessy, from St. Martin of Tours Parish in Bethpage, NY and Ann Andersen, Associate Director of Administration and Customer Sales and Service at Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island.

Christmas ornaments to be blessed.

With the pandemic came the need for new safety measures to be incorporated into the Christmas traditions that give peace and joy to thousands of families.

Due to the pandemic and government occupancy and social distancing mandates, the special Christmas Trees and Ornament Blessing services were offered as an alternative to Christmas Masses.

“This has been a challenging year for everyone and at Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island, it was very important to us that we offer families options to honor and remember their lost loved ones. The Christmas Tree and Ornament blessing services took place all week long and were celebrated by our Committal Deacons.

We were pleased that these services were well attended,” said Richard Bie, CEO of Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island.

Dozens of families attended services and brought favorite Christmas decorations and special ornaments as tributes to

family members who passed during the last year and in previous years. Many ornaments were handmade and others included photos of those who have passed.

Following the blessings of the Christmas Trees, families were invited to place these special momentos in remembrance of their loved ones on the trees.

“The Christmas Trees decorated with these special ornaments are beautiful and a fitting way for families to pay tribute to their loved ones and remember the lives of those who have passed.

We received many positive responses from families about our tree and ornament blessing services. Christmas celebrations are among the most well attended at the cemeteries, so we look forward to offering families a meaningful way to remember their loved ones again next year,” added Ann Andersen, Associate Director of Administration and Customer Sales and Service at Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island. Ms. Andersen and staff helped to plan and prepare the chapels for services and attended them

as a gesture of support for the families.

Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island owns and operates four cemeteries across Long Island including Cemetery of the Holy Rood in Westbury, Holy Sepulchre Cemetery in Coram, Queen of All Saints Cemetery in Central Islip and Queen of Peace Cemetery in Old Westbury. Queen of Peace is the first new Catholic cemetery to open on Long Island in decades. The chapel at Queen of Peace Cemetery is under construction at this time and is expected to be completed by the summer of 2021.

Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island is dedicated to meeting both the spiritual and physical needs of the more than 1.4 million Catholics across the Diocese of Rockville Centre, which encompasses Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island, NY.
