Had a fantastic experience with Michele and Mark. They both sold our home (for well over asking price) and helped us find a perfect new home in a completely different neighborhood. Their knowledge of the Massapequa area and market was second to none and helped us to sell our home within 3 days of going on the market. Everything was thorough, professional, and smooth. I never had any concerns or doubts about my decision to hire Michele and Mark. I would highly recommend them for either selling your home or to help you find your new home... TERRY & TIANA It was a pleasure working with both Michele and Mark. Michele found me and my husband our first home over 30 years ago. At that time she worked with the seller until 10PM one night until they reached a deal we agreed with. We reconnected this year in 2018 to sell my mom’s home. Michele’s knowledge of the market place established the correct price point to list the home which resulted in multiple offers over ask. Both Michele and Mark worked many nights and weekend showing our home. I highly recommend Michele and Mark to anyone looking to buy or sell a home... ILENE & FRANK NEW TO MARKET

The Right Wine When pairing wine and food, think of wine as a condiment-it should complement a dish. The general rule is to try to

achieve a balance-wine should not overpower the food, nor should the food overpower the wine.

Fourth-graders experienced life in North America hundreds of years ago as the Journeys program came to Lockhart Elementary School in the Massapequa School District on January 10th.

The program began with an educational video highlighting Native American culture. The allpurpose room stage was transformed into a museum featuring artifacts such as artwork, clothing, musical instruments and tools.

Student could walk through a model of a longhouse and touch animal fur.

In the game room, children heard traditional Native American stories and played a dice game.

Stories included messages on kindness, respect and friendship. There was also an opportunity to make pottery and participate in traditional dances. The program supported the fourth-grade social studies curriculum.

A team of a dozen young scientists from the Massapequa School District will test their mettle at the regional Science Olympiad competition, which will be held on Feb. 2 at Division Avenue High School.

The Science Olympiad team is open to students from Massapequa High School’s main and Ames campuses. It is coached by science teachers Kimberly Bruno from Ames and Natalie Pedisich from the high school. Students meet once a week after school to plan for the competition.

Several of the events require students to construct projects ahead of time. Junior Kyle Yee is participating in the Wright Stuff, in which he has to build a rubberbandpowered airplane. At the competition, his goal will be to get it to stay up in the air as long as possible.

Kyle will also be partnering with sophomore Katelyn Stealey in Write It,

Do It. At the competition, one of the team members will be shown an object and write instructions on how to build it. The other teammate will then be given the instruction and the necessary materials and attempt to construct it to resemble the sample creation.

Junior Jill Spurrel is participating in Code Busters, and event that will require her to decipher codes. She is also building an instrument for Sound of Music. She can’t use any materials that would be found in a traditional instruments, and she must be able to play a full scale at the competition.

“I like having a challenge, being a given a prompt and then having to build something,” Jill said.

There are more than 20 events at the competition.

Massapequa will have at least one or two students taking part in every event.

Ms. Pedisich said that she and Ms. Bruno are there to mentor the students and help them understand the requirements for each event, but the onus is on them to prepare for the competition.

“All of our students are here because they want to be here,” Ms. Bruno said.

“They have to be dedicated to it. The more time and effort that they put into their individual events, the better that they’re going to do.”

NORTH MASSAPEQUA - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 30, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Joan Lunden, journalist, best-selling author, former host of Good Morning America and senior living advocate.

The PBS Community Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, was established to help people with autism spectrum disorders, developmental disabilities and other special needs. They particularly focus on selfdetermination and full inclusion in the local community.

Now more than ever, individuals with disabilities are seeking the opportunity to stay in their own communities and pursue their personal goals, while receiving the needed levels of support to make full community inclusion a sustainable reality.

In New York State, anyone who is eligible for OPWDD Services (NYS Office For People With Developmental Disabilities) and enrolled in the Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Waiver, can choose to self-direct their services.

Self-direction is a person-centered approach that empowers individuals with developmental disabilities to create a life plan with support that they chose, based on their unique strengths, needs and goals. It also gives the individual more control over how funding is used to purchase needed support and services.

While the number of individuals choosing to self-direct their services is quickly growing, the PBS Community Foundation aims to provide support through grass roots, community based networks.

In addition to some of this foundation’s initiatives: Big Time Glee, Nassau Voice, The Crafting Connection and Mid-Week Meetups, they also offer workshops and classes based on the interests and needs expressed by individuals in their self-directed community… one being their Emergency Preparedness Training. This training seeks to assist young adult and adult individuals that are selfdetermined and living in their community to develop a plan for staying safe.

In light of what many of us experienced as a result of Super Storm Sandy, it has become evident that we are not all fully prepared for being evacuated, living without electricity or living without cell phone communication. Many were traumatized because of the changes made to their everyday life. The Emergency Preparedness Training/Workshops are comprehensive and based on California’s Feeling Safe, Being Safe program. The program is appropriate for all self-determined

individuals, their families and the people who support them. Instruction about important procedures and protocols for before, during and after a disaster will be presented.

This training is being reintroduced by popular demand and will be offered in Suffolk County in March and in Nassau County in April. In order to run these classes, the foundation is asking for donations of first aid kits, monetary donations (to cover the cost of class materials) supplies, as well as donations of space for other classes to be held around Long Island.

Additionally, The Nature Experience is a new PBS Community Foundation class that was introduced last year. This course has enriched the lives of many self-directed individuals through learning about and having contact with the natural world. Enrollees gain knowledge about the animals that can be found living in and around Caleb Smith State Park/Nature Preserve, located in Smithtown. The Nature Experience provides an all-inclusive social environment, where friendships can develop through shared interests and experiences.

The instructor, Jordan Ofgang, is a certified K-12 Special Educator and a life-long resident of Long Island. He is also an avid nature lover and explorer! Jordan leads the group weekly for the following: a lesson on one or more animals, a mindful hike focusing on the lesson content and nature safety, a wrap-up for group discussion, social time and snacks.

These popular classes, and more, are made possible through the generous donations of individuals, businesses and the community at large that share the goals and mission of the PBS Community Foundation.

Anyone who is interested in learning more about this foundation and their initiatives can visit their website at www. pbscommunityfoundation.org for more information/to view calendar of events or you can contact Ruth-Ann Hartney at info@pbscommunityfoundation.org!

Transformative Art at McKenna

Every year, students can count on the self-portrait project at McKenna Elementary School in the Massapequa School District. Art teacher Ellen Cervone said that the project not only documents how students grow and change physically from

kindergarten through fifth-grade, but also captures the development of their artistic abilities.

The self-portraits are made with pencil and crayon, and finished with a watercolor wash. The students are aided by mirrors and “This is me”

sheets that note physical features such as eye color, face shape and hair style.

Ms. Cervone keeps all of the completed selfportraits and gives them to the children upon their graduation from elementary school.

A Flashing Of Light By: Gail Gardner

The magic lasts for just so long The music plays until the end of the song In the snap of your fingers, it can all be gone And silence continues throughout the storm The memories dim as I turn the lights low And everything stops... was it a second ago?

That we danced through the night And we let our hearts go The darkness seeps in, as I feel betrayed And out the window flies, the promises we made Would it have killed you, if you had stayed The only hope I have, is that my memories fade

Matthew McEvoy

Love? It’s a moment; a flashing of light That turns inside out like daytime to night Did I love you? I did Does that make things all right?

Tattoo Artist Formerly Of Deer Park Is Now At

Should I turn off my feelings, give up this fight

For the magic has left me, the music, it died And I don’t remember a night I haven’t cried God only knows, it’s not that I didn’t try But I don’t know how to let go, to say goodbye

Catholics Returning Home will take place on six consecutive

Take 2 Simple Steps To Help Protect Your Family (NAPSI)—Many people may not realize that it only takes two minutes for a house to be engulfed in flames. The American Red Cross and its Home Fire Campaign partners are asking everyone across the country to take the following two simple steps to help decrease the risk of home fires and save lives: 1. Create and practice your 2-minute drill.

Have at least two ways to escape from every room.

Select an outside meeting spot at a safe distance

where family members can meet. Discuss the plan with everyone in the household and practice it until everyone can escape in less than two minutes.

Conduct practice drills at least twice a year.

2. Install and maintain smoke alarms. Working smoke alarms halve your risk of dying in a home fire.

Put them on every level of your home, including inside and outside bedrooms. Test the alarms monthly and change the batteries when needed.

Never disable a smoke alarm. Teach children what an alarm sounds like and what to do if they hear one.

For a Home Fire Safety Checklist and worksheets to create your 2-minute drill go to redcross.org/fire.

You can also download, for free, the Red Cross Emergency App for instant access to home fire safety tips and the Monster Guard App for an interactive game that teaches children about home fire safety and prevention at redcross.org/ apps.

Mondays, starting January 7th at St. Lawrence the Martyr R.C. Church of Main Street and Handsome Avenue in Sayville, 7:30 p.m. These sessions are for Catholics who have left the active practice of their faith and who are seeking answers to questions about returning to the Church. There will be informal sharing and an update of the Catholic faith.

News Of Older Houses (NAPSI)—Older homes often have a unique charm—but few have insulation that meets modern energy efficiency standards. This can result in air leaks, wasted energy and high utility bills. One way to fix this is with spray polyurethane foam (SPF) insulation.

It can be seamlessly added in and around walls, attics and roofs. By sealing cracks, seams and joints, some SPF products provide

a waterproof membrane that acts as a vapor and air barrier, which in addition to insulating improves energy efficiency.

A properly insulated home can reduce heating and cooling needs by 30 percent, according to the Department of Energy.

Many homeowners don’t realize that the attic is one of the main places where heat and cold air can escape. As the Department of Energy explains, holes

in a typical attic account for 15 percent of a home’s energy loss. Cracks and gaps let air out and rainwater in. SPF can fill in around the cracks to create an effective barrier.

You can learn more at www.whysprayfoam.org.

Vivica A. Fox Talks

Womanhood & Hollywood

By Allison Kugel Kind, conscientious, courageous and refreshingly candid, Ms. Vivica A. Fox has proven that as Hollywood careers go, second acts are often the sweetest. The multi-hyphenate actress-beauty entrepreneur-author is embracing life and not looking back, except to pull from her well of wisdom for her memoir, Every Day I’m Hustling.

Allison Kugel: When are you Angie and when are you Vivica? When do you take off the Vivica and become Angie from Indianapolis?

NORTH MASSAPEQUA - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 30, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Vivica A. Fox: Well first off, that’s Angie Fox from 38th and Emerson in Indianapolis (laughs)! I’m Vivica Fox when I hit that red carpet and I’m ready to slay the game. That’s what I do. But I love that I have in my life, and in my journey, learned when to be Angie Fox. And that’s mainly when I’m with my family, time off, hanging out with my godchildren, having my Me Time and learning to take some Me Time. That’s when I’m no makeup, baseball cap, chilling and blending in.

do they live? That’s where I’m going!

That’s what I want to do.” I made that decision during my senior year in high school. But I had to trick my mama (laughs), and tell her I was going to go to college in California. I did go to college, but I would be sneaking up to Hollywood and going to modeling agencies. I had a girlfriend who was an actress, and I used to read lines with her. She would say, “You’re pretty good at this, you should try it.”

anything else. It’s taken awhile, and that’s something I want to share with people. My book is a motivational memoir. I, too, have fallen down and had to figure out how to get back up and create new chapters for myself.

I want to encourage, enlighten and inspire other people.

Allison Kugel: Your book is part memoir and part motivational guidebook for success. Tell me about your own mentor, or mentors…

Vivica A. Fox: It’s part of life. It’s going to happen. And it’s like you just asked, “Do you know that you’re sexy right now?” But do people also know that for the last few years, that’s what’s been going on in my life? I embraced it and I got in front of it. I didn’t let it define me or make me want to whittle away. I don’t know why with women, we can’t talk about our bodies and what we go through, share it with others, and not feel like we have to hide that from people. I’m sharing it, and I got in front of it and took care of myself. I really feel like it made me take good care of myself.

Vivica A. Fox: My mentor would have to be a good friend of mine, and my first acting coach, Sheila Wills. I’m her two daughters’ godmother. Sheila, I met when I was doing [the daytime soap opera] Generations. She took me under her wing, and she would work with me with auditions. I would go into those auditions and just nail them. I attribute my success to her.

Allison Kugel: Do you prefer yourself that way?

Vivica A. Fox: Oh my gosh! To be honest with you, the older I’ve gotten, the more I prefer it. I work so much; I’ve been so blessed and so busy lately that I enjoy when I can have that Me Time. In fact, today I don’t have to be on. That’s what I really love about being with my godchildren. When they see me, I’m just G.G. or G-ma.

G.G. stands for Gorgeous Godmother.

G-ma, I don’t know where they got that one from, but I have five godchildren.

Two of them call me G-ma and the other ones call me G.G. They like hanging with me. Not the drama or the glamour, they just want me.

Allison Kugel: Coming from the Midwest, your father was a school administrator, your mother worked for a pharmaceutical company, so you really had no ties to entertainment or Los Angeles for that matter. What gave you that spark of courage to believe that you could become a successful actress?

Vivica A. Fox: I was introduced to the world of fashion and modeling by Madame King, my late auntie. She had her own beauty salon back in the day.

She was the first one to cut my hair and put me on a runway. I was kind of bitten by the bug at thirteen. From that point forward, I just fell in love with magazines and fashion. Then I went to go see Michael Jackson in concert, and Diana Ross in concert. I had never seen African Americans being so fabulous, and I was like, “Where

Allison Kugel: Why did you choose to share your journey with menopause in the book?

Allison Kugel: Let’s talk about motherhood. I know you have all these nieces and nephews, and godchildren. I feel like motherhood, meaning the energy of motherhood, is something that is innate in all women. We have a need to nurture.

How does that energy express itself through you?

She would say, “Vivica, you’ve got to stay ready. You got to be ready.

You’ve got to take care of yourself.”

And people who inspired me to be who I am would be Diana Ross and Pam Grier.

Allison Kugel: Do you know that you’re incredibly sexy? Is that something you’re aware of?

Vivica A. Fox: Thank you! I appreciate that. Got to keep it tight and right, girl (laughs)!

Allison Kugel: More so, now, than twenty years ago, in my opinion.

Vivica A. Fox: Maybe because… No, not maybe! Because I am comfortable in my own skin. I’m very comfortable with me. I have embraced my womanhood through my pluses and my minuses. I’m good with me right now, so that’s what you’re seeing. My spirit is happy, more than

Vivica A. Fox: I’m Mama Bear all the time! I have a nurturing instinct and I think I get that from my mother. My mother always loved to take care of others. Still to this day, she doesn’t take as good care of herself, because she is always looking out for others. I got that quality from her. When I walk on a set, I’m always making sure that I speak to everyone, that I try to make people as comfortable as possible. In that way, I am very motherly. It’s just something in me, I like to look out for others. But the older I’ve gotten, I’ve learned to look out more for myself, as well. And I’ve learned a very important word: No. Allison Kugel: How do you define glamour and beauty?

Vivica A. Fox: Someone who is a goddess, who just radiates confidence; someone who owns her moment, who seizes her moment.

I believe that beauty radiates from the inside. Especially nowadays with these build-a-bodies, and everything is just makeup and fakeness in my opinion right now. It’s when you meet a person and they are a beautiful person, they radiate confidence and

kindness. I find beauty in a woman that has no makeup on, but she’s confident in her own skin and radiates kindness and does for others. To me, that’s beautiful.

Allison Kugel: What do you think is the biggest misconception about success?

Vivica A. Fox: That it’s easy. When you’re successful, usually it’s taken a long time to build a career. It isn’t something that happens overnight.

It takes time to build a career, and a career means being able to go through different stages and chapters of a career, not just being the hot chick of the moment. For me, I went from being the hot ingenue chick, to now building my brand and producing and directing.

Allison Kugel: Do you want Hollywood to be colorblind in writing and casting roles, or do you want to be identified, and cast, as an African American actress?

Allison Kugel: I know that God is speaking to me when…

Vivica A. Fox: Woo! Hmm. All the time. Every day when I wake up and I can thank Him for letting me see another day. I would say, I know God is speaking to me all the time, and He helps me make better choices.

Allison Kugel: My spiritual mission in this life is…

Vivica A. Fox: To be kind, to do unto others and to leave a good mark. everything. That’s a success.

Allison Kugel is an entertainment columnist, and author of the book, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a life unhinged and on the record. Follow her on Instagram @theallisonkugel and visit AllisonKugel.com.

Vivica A. Fox: Of course, I always want to be seen as a talented African American actress, because that’s who I am. I feel that right now, what’s going on in Hollywood is that, man, that glass ceiling has been busted wide open. It’s been a long time coming, with the success of Black Panther, with the success of television shows like Scandal and Empire and How to Get Away with Murder; with Oprah having her own network. It’s about damn time.

Allison Kugel: Finish these sentences for me. I know I can trust someone when…

Vivica A. Fox: When I’ve truly gotten to know them.

Vivica’s Memoir, Every Day I’m Hustling is out now.

The Holidays Inspired Learning

NORTH MASSAPEQUA - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 30, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

The holidays were on everyone’s mind in Mary Elizabeth Delaney’s class at Unqua Elementary School in the Massapequa School District, which created numerous opportunities to improve literacy and math skills.

Children wrote about their holiday traditions on

triangular pieces of paper, which were then hung together on a bulletin board to form a Christmas tree. After learning about contractions, students wrote them on snowflakes along with the translations.

They also made seasonal word art and solved math problems on their decimal

snowmen.

Because the holidays are a meant to be a time for giving and kindness, students also wrote their wishes for the world on paper snow globes. The wishes included ending homelessness and hunger, finding a cure for cancer and no more litter.

Songs of the Season While fifth-graders were the stars of the show, everyone was invited to use their vocal chords to embrace the holiday spirit at the annual winter concert at Fairfield Elementary School, in the Massapequa School District.

The concert featured the fifth-grade orchestra,

chorus and band. Students were dressed in red, green and white, with a few ugly sweaters mixed in, and also donned Santa hats and reindeer ears. Audience members were invited to participate in holiday sing-a-longs during the transitions between ensembles. There were two shows for Fairfield

students on December 19th and one for parents on December 20th.

The band was led by Kristin Hodulick, the chorus by Jeanine Yako and the orchestra by Michael Molloy. Among the featured songs were “Jingle Bells” and the “Abominable Snowman Chase.”

A young rocket scientist was sent to Saturn to find a certain mineral, and students from Lockhart Elementary School in the Massapequa School District were asked to help. Fifth-graders were immersed in finding and

analyzing clues during the interactive Submerge Storytelling experience from December 10-14.

The young investigators followed the fictitious story of Emmy, a middle school student, who was recruited by NASA

for a mission to Saturn to find lithium materials to replenish Earth’s battery supplies. A classroom was transformed in Emmy’s bedroom and Lockhart students went around with clipboards and pencils, looking at the different props to learn more about the young girl and the mission. They drew conclusions based on evidence so they could send reliable information to Emmy and the astronauts on the intergalactic expedition.

The program had a scientific component as students tested different minerals using magnets, magnifying glasses, portable lamps and streak plates to try to identify petalite from a collection of different minerals.

Submerge Storytelling educator Cory Levine said the program builds skills that students can take back with them to the classroom, such as critical

Share Your Truth So Others Can Share Theirs “You have been assigned this mountain so that you can show others it can be moved.” - Mel Robbins Some of you may have read a recent article that ran in South Bay’s Neighbor titled, My Journey with Anxiety, written by yours truly. The article was an essay that featured an excerpt of my book, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a Life Unhinged and on the Record.

In the article, I chronicle a time in my life, during the summer of 2012, when I suffered from especially severe bouts of anxiety and panic attacks. Since touring with my book, doing press and speaking engagements, I transformed into an advocate for mental health as I learned some of the statistics surrounding anxiety disorders.

For example, I was shocked to learn that 40 million Americans have experienced (or will experience) some form of anxiety disorder in their lifetime. My initial shock at that statistic was largely due to the fact that for so many years I had felt alone with

this disorder, and I carried some degree of shame. After my book was released, I became fearless about sharing my experiences with anxiety and panic. Once I put my story out into the world, the shame and embarrassment seemed to dissolve as if by magic.

I eventually healed from that acute bout of anxiety through a series of shifts I made in my life, including: talk therapy, spiritual studies, writing, speaking, dietary changes, and so forth. We all need to be physically, emotionally and spiritually fortified in order to become and stay healthy. That includes our mental health.

As I revealed my truth to friends, acquaintances, family members and countless strangers, the most amazing thing happened. People began to direct message me on social media, call or email me to thank me for sharing my story.

They also confessed their own experience with anxiety, phobias, depression and panic attacks. It made me glad to know that my book and my story helped people, but I never could have imagined that people I thought I knew

were telling me these stories. You really never know what someone is going through in their inner world.

After my article, My Journey with Anxiety ran in South Bay’s Neighbor (for some of you, it may be in this issue you are holding in your hands) one by one, a few co-workers came over to my desk, and as if to say, “This is just between you and me, because you get it,” shared their own experiences with severe anxiety and panic attacks.

What I have come to realize is that by sharing my truth, I gave permission for others to share theirs. The unspoken conspiracy of silence is then broken. People feel safe to share their most intimate and sometimes painful life experiences with you when they see that you have shared your own.

When you share your truth, you give, both, yourself and others such a wonderful gift. You not only liberate yourself; you liberate other people to feel safe sharing their truth.

RECIPES

Zucchini Pie

By Terry Rydzynski of Commack, New York All recipes are made with love, but when passed down through multiple generations, they carry tremendous meaning. South Bay’s own Terry Rydzynski loves to reminisce about her late Aunt Sally and the Zucchini Pie recipe that Sally passed down to her.

“My Aunt Sally’s mother passed this recipe to my mother, who passed it on to me and my daughter,” shares Terry.

“We make this dish on big holidays as an appetizer before the main course. I made my Zucchini Pie on Christmas for my twenty-five guests and people ask for it every year.”

In remembering her beloved Aunt, Terry continues, “Aunt Sally is gone, but her recipe lives on in our family, year after year.”

How To Make Zucchini Pie Combine: 3 cups thinly sliced zucchini (you can also substitute asparagus) 1small chopped onion 1 cup of Bisquick mix 4 large eggs 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1/2 cup parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon parsley flakes (or 1/4 cup of finely chopped fresh parsley) salt and pepper to taste Mix all together, put mixture into a greased 12” baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for thirty-five minutes. Cut into two inch squares, serve and enjoy!

(NAPSI)—If you ever see black or other colored streaks on your roof, your problem is more than looks-but it can be resolved.

What It Is Those streaks come from vegetation eating the mineral content of your shingles. The vegetation is literally eating your roof for lunch. Not taken care of, it will shorten the life of

your roof dramatically.

What To Do Fortunately, there are inexpensive, easy-to-apply cleaners that can remove this unwanted vegetation.

They come in concentrate and are diluted to the desired strength. The diluted solution is placed in a garden-type sprayer and applied to the roof, and in a half hour or less you rinse it off and the stains

Despite the frosty temperature, the scouts learned how to orienteer with a map, using makeshift sundials to find the cardinal directions. They found traces of a variety of critters, identified local plants and trees, and some scouts earned their Firem’n Chit.
