Family & Children’s Association www.fcali.org With locations across Nassau and Suffolk, Family & Children’s Association (FCA) is a not-for-profit organization that is dedicated to providing help and hope to Long Island’s most vulnerable children, families, seniors and communities. FCA envisions a Long Island where a legacy of optimal health, educational success and economic security passes from one generation to the next; each year it serves 30,000 individuals and families in Suffolk and Nassau counties. Its mission strives to make our island a better place for all of us to live, work and raise a family.

FCA has served Long Islanders since 1884 and today its more than 40 programs fall into five big areas of need: Addiction Prevention, Treatment & Recovery Taking on addiction from every angle, beginning with prevention. Recovery support services are offered Islandwide with offices from Hempstead to Westhampton Beach.

Children’s Mental Health & Wellness This division offers an array of services and supports designed to promote the health and wellness of children and their families. The services are for individuals up to 21 years of age who have or are at risk of developing a mental health diagnosis. Services are always free to clients, voluntary, family-driven, strength-based, and culturally competent, with location and scheduling tailored to each family’s needs. They also provide support for the families of individuals with mental and/ or behavioral health issues.

Prevention & Family Support FCA’s prevention team provides critical services to at-risk children and families including a nursery co-op program,

alcohol and substance abuse and gun violence r e d u c t i o n program, and more, through collaboration, education, and advocacy.

Residential Care FCA operates four residences that focus on quality care, seamless transitions and well-managed aftercare services for youth. Nassau Haven and Walkabout provide emergency shelter and longer term transitional housing for homeless, runaway and trafficked youth. Two other residences support children and young adults with serious emotional disturbances or mental health issues.

Senior & Adult Services FCA believes that every senior deserves to live with dignity, safety and independence. FCA helps more than 10,000 seniors a year with meal deliveries, caregiver support, home visits for companionship, elder abuse prevention and advocacy.

The number of people who turn to FCA for help is growing and with it, the need for donations to close gaps in government funding. FCA’s programs and services are greatly enhanced by the involvement of others, whether through donations of time or money, and welcome the help of all Long Islanders to further its mission. Therefore, if you would like to get involved with this organization, you can!

Stay tuned for next week’s article to learn about ways you can give, such as Mission Moment Scholarship Fund, Legacy Planning and Giving Tree, along with Adopt-A-Family and volunteer opportunities!

Jones, The Musical – a delightful adaptation of four of Barbara Park’s best-selling books, brought to life in a genuinely comical (and not strictly-for-kids) musical developed by TheatreworksUSA. Awaken a young person’s desire to read with the sassy little diva, Junie B. Jones, and her adventures in first grade.

It’s Junie B.’s first day of first grade, and a lot of things have changed for her: Junie’s friend, Lucille, doesn’t want to be her best pal anymore and, on the bus, Junie B. makes friends with Herb, the new kid at school. Also, Junie has trouble reading the blackboard and her teacher, Mr. Scary, thinks she may need glasses. Throw in a friendly cafeteria lady, a kickball tournament and a “Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal,” and first grade has never been more exciting.

Featuring a tremendously loveable character and fun-filled songs, Junie B. Jones will capture your hearts just as the books captivated an entire generation of students.

American Heart Association Warns Of Snow Shoveling Health Hazards The American Heart Association says that for most people, shoveling snow may not lead to any health problems.

However, the association warns that the risk of a heart attack during snow shoveling may increase for some, as the combination of colder temperatures and physical exertion increases the workload on the heart.

People who are outdoors in cold weather should avoid sudden exertion, like lifting a heavy shovel full of snow. Even walking through heavy, wet snow or snow drifts can strain a person’s heart.

For those who are sedentary, or people with existing heart conditions like heart failure, high blood pressure or cholesterol, the increased workload on the heart from activities such as shoveling of heavy snow, can put them at higher risk for heart attack— where a clot blocks blood flow to a heart artery causing the heart muscle damage or tissue death.

This is a life-threatening medical emergency.

To help make snow removal safer, the American Heart Association has compiled a list of practical tips. · Give yourself a break.

Take frequent rest breaks

during shoveling so you don’t overstress your heart. Pay attention to how your body feels during those breaks. · Don’t eat a heavy meal prior or soon after shoveling. Eating a large meal can put an extra load on your heart. · Use a small shovel or consider a snow thrower.

The act of lifting heavy snow can raise blood pressure acutely during the lift. It is safer to lift smaller amounts more times, than to lug a few huge shovelfuls of snow.

When possible, simply push the snow. · Learn the heart attack warning signs and listen to your body, but remember this: Even if you’re not sure it’s a heart attack, have it checked out (tell a doctor about your symptoms). Minutes matter! Fast action can save lives — maybe your own. Don’t wait more than five minutes to call 9-1-1. · Don’t drink alcoholic beverages before or immediately after shoveling. Alcohol may increase a person’s sensation of warmth and may cause them to underestimate the extra strain their body is under in the cold. · Consult a doctor. If you have a medical condition,

don’t exercise on a regular basis or are middle aged or older, meet with your doctor prior to the first anticipated snowfall. · Be aware of the dangers of hypothermia.

Heart failure causes most deaths in hypothermia.

To prevent hypothermia, dress in layers of warm clothing, which traps air between layers forming a protective insulation.

Wear a hat because much of your body’s heat can be lost through your head.

Heart Attack Warning Signs Some heart attacks are sudden and intense — the “movie heart attack,” where it is clear what’s happening. But most heart attacks start slowly, with mild pain or

discomfort. Often people affected aren’t sure what’s wrong and wait too long before getting help. Here are signs that can mean a heart attack is happening: · Chest discomfort.

Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts more than a few minutes, or that goes away and comes back. It can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain. · Discomfort in other areas of the upper body.

Symptoms can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach. · Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort. · Other signs may

include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness · As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort. But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting, and back or jaw pain.

Call 9-1-1 emergency medical services (EMS) for rapid transport to the emergency room and treatment when they arrive on the scene.

Don’t drive yourself--have someone drive you to the hospital right away.

Heart attacks can cause sudden cardiac

arrest, where the heart stops beating, or beats irregularly, failing to pump enough blood. If a victim is unresponsive, not breathing or only gasping, quick recognition and fast action are the keys to saving a life.

What You Can Do Bystanders can help cardiac arrest victims survive, if they act fast.

First, call 9-1-1 and start CPR right away. Then, if an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is available, use it as soon as possible. If two people are available to help, one should begin CPR immediately while the other calls 9-1-1 and finds an AED. Hands Only CPR is effective in saving lives during cardiac arrest.

Hands-Only CPR has just two simple steps. If you see a teen or adult suddenly collapse, (1) Call 9-1-1; and (2) Push hard and fast in the center of the chest to the beat of the disco song “Stayin’ Alive” (100 beats per minute) until help arrives.

To learn more about CPR or find a local class, visit www.heart.org/CPR .

Have Your Furry Friends Tested Annually The American Heartworm Society advises dog owners to have their furry companions tested for heartworm annually.

Such tests can typically be conducted during routine preventive care visits to the veterinarian.

The

AHS notes that such tests are necessary even for dogs that are taking year-round heartworm prevention medications.

Tests can confirm that such programs are working or indicate if they are not effective. The American Veterinary

Medical Association notes that antigen tests are the most commonly performed tests. These tests detect the presence of adult female heartworms and they are typically highly accurate. If a test is positive, veterinarians may recommend

further testing, including radiographs, a blood profile and an echocardiogram. Such tests can determine a number of things about the infection, including its severity. The AVMA also notes that the additional testing can help determine the best

course of treatment. Cat owners should know that it’s more difficult to detect heartworm in cats than in dogs.

The AHS indicates that cats are much less likely than dogs to have adult heartworms, making the disease harder to detect in

felines. Veterinarians may recommend cats receive both the antigen test and an antibody test, which detects exposure to heartworm larvae. The AVMA notes that more testing may increase the likelihood of detecting the disease in cats.

Few things document weddings more effectively than photographs. Carefully curated wedding albums and portraits hung on walls serve as daily reminders of a couple’s special day.

Photography is often left in the very qualified hands of professional photographers. However, couples can pitch in to make their photos really pop. These picture pointers from industry insiders can help couples put their best smile forward.

Enlist A Family Photo Coordinator

Leave Ample Time

Delve Into The Details

A carefully orchestrated timeline can ensure photos are the best they can be. Why? Because a couple who is relaxed and not overwhelmed will notice that attitude translates to their photographs. When planning wedding timelines, couples should leave ample opportunities for getting dressed, chatting with the wedding party and going through various photography settings to grab great photos, advise the experts at Martha Stewart.

Play Your Style Safe

If the photographer does not have his or her own assistant, recruit someone who is assertive to help wrangle everyone for the family shots. Attempt to get family photos when family members are relaxed but not too far rumpled by dancing or having a good time.

Prepare wedding details, like gowns, shoes, accessories, etc., in advance to save time once the photographer arrives, suggests Desi Mendoza, a pro from Dez and Tam Photography. Invest in a beautiful hanger for the wedding gown as well, because you may want to photograph that on its own.

Put Together A Short List

The photographer will have his or her ideas of which shots to cover, but a couple with specific goals in mind should relay that information to their photographer.

For example, if a grandparent is getting up in years, request some solo photos of that person so you can look back on happy times together. Certain couples want to be snapped posing with a beloved pet. Putting that on the list helps ensure it will happen.

Learn To Pose

Couples can practice posing in front of mirrors to get a feel for body positions that put them in their best light. A photographer’s advice in regard to posture is invaluable as well. Create space between arms and the body and learn how to angle the body so you look your best.

Photos will capture wedding day memories forever.

Couples can put themselves in the best positions for success by following some photography guidelines.

Your Guide To Hosting An Elegant Dinner Party

and small receptacles for housing garnishes, such as lemon slices or maraschino cherries.

Hosting at home requires attention to detail.

Choosing the right accessories and accoutrements is part of setting a formal dinner party scene and creating an inviting atmosphere. The following approach can serve as a guide for men and women as they prepare to host a formal dinner party.

Practice A Proper Table Setting

The art of a properly set table may have fallen out of favor, but it’s one thing that may impress your guests the most. You’ll need specific settings for formal events, and there are plenty of online tutorials offering advice from etiquette experts. Invest in a new tablecloth to serve as an impressive base for the beautiful table settings.

Send Proper Invitations

While many people have grown accustomed to the convenience of evites, nothing conveys the formality of an event better than a traditional paper invitation.

Find invitations that match the tone of your dinner party, whether semiformal or formal. This will help set the tone and let guests know what to wear.

Assess Your Serviceware

Take inventory of the types of dishes, glasses, silverware, and serving platters you have. If items don’t match or you do not have enough matching items for all guests, consider purchasing or renting items so everything matches. Plan ahead so you have enough dishes for the courses you will be serving without having to wash items in between.

Limit Your Courses

It is better to do one or two courses very well than stretch yourself thin trying to impress guests with a multitude of courses. Choose dishes that you’ve made before and have had success with. Avoid foods that

Set Up A Fresh Flower Arrangement

Whether you prefer a large table centerpiece or smaller bud vases all along the table, fresh flowers add appeal and aroma to a space. Think about complementary flowers in the living room or in the require major preparation or attention while guests restroom as well. Flowers are an added touch to are present. make formal dinner parties more special.

Know Your Bar Needs

Different drinks call for different glasses and tools for preparation. Therefore, offer a few signature drinks and stock the items that will be needed for them. Red and white wine glasses, coupe glasses, martini glasses, single rocks glasses, and double oldfashioned glasses are some of the most common to have on hand. You’ll need stirrers, cocktail shakers

Purchase A Sensational Sweet

End the meal with a special dessert. Find those singular places in the town or city where you live that are known for their desserts. Intricately decorated cakes or pastries will have a wow factor.

Attention to detail and thorough planning are keys to hosting elaborate dinner parties.

A wedding day is not a time for the bride or groom to try a dramatic new style, according to photographer Amanda Lamb. Resist the urge for a daring cut or color. It’s also likely not the place to try out new facial hair or heavy makeup. A couple unaccustomed to the way they look may be shy in front of the camera.

Longevity in marriage is something to be celebrated. Couples who reach fiftieth and sixtieth wedding anniversaries often commemorate those anniversaries with big parties. But there are some around the world who would consider golden anniversary celebrants to still be newlyweds. In December 2015, Karam Chand, 110, and his wife, Kartari Chand, 103, from Bradford, West Yorkshire (originally from India), celebrated their 90th wedding anniversary, becoming the world’s longest-betrothed couple.

In America, John and Ann Betar, ages 104 and 100, respectively, have been married 83 years as of 2016. The couple eloped in 1932. They have been named one of America’s longest-married couples by the Worldwide Marriage Encounter.

Make Party Hosting A Breeze

Entertaining is a great way to show good will and friendship to others and to celebrate special occasions.

Many people can successfully throw parties, but hosting a great party takes a little extra effort. By following some tips, hosts can ensure their next party is one to remember.

Stick To A Theme

Many party hosts find that themes help in the planning.

Themes make it easy to coordinate invitations, decor, food, and music. Guests also may enjoy dressing up according to the theme.

Start Making Lists

Make lists regarding which foods you plan to cook, what you need to buy, who you plan to invite, and any other details that are floating around in your head. Getting things on paper and checking off the list can help keep things moving.

Have A Seating Plan

Have ample seating available and consider assigning seats at formal affairs so guests can sit next to friends or like-minded fellow invitees.

Do As Much You Can In Advance

When hosting at home, spend the day prior to the party getting the house in order and making any food if the party will not be catered. If it will be catered, confirm with the catering company the delivery time and firm up any other details.

You’ll be far less frazzled if you space out your tasks than trying to squeeze them in a few hours before guests arrive.

Some people just aren’t punctual. Some may leave home too early and arrive well before the party starts, while others think “fashionably late” is showing up long after the party starts. Have some easy-to-grab snacks so that early and late guests can munch while you finish your tasks.

Stick To What You Know

A dinner party or other event may not be the best time to get creative. Lean on recipes you’ve made before and can guarantee correct timing and flavor.

Please make sure to contact the shelter(s) to see how they are operating during the pandemic you are interested in adoption.

Spread Out Foods And Beverages

Guests tend to bottleneck around the goodies. Ensure mingling and avoid traffic jams by having drinks and snacks in different locations.

These are just a handful of ways hosts can throw memorable parties where everyone has a good time.

The Rise Of The Microwedding

Your Wedding Timeline Guide

Wedding planning involves many movable pieces that ultimately need to come together on the big day.

Planning is typically a months-long process, and adhering to certain monthly benchmarks can help couples stay the course.

Brides magazine offers that the perfect engagement period is 12 to 14 months, which affords ample time to get organized and work with vendors.

With that in mind, here’s a 12-month timeline for couples getting ready to say “I do.”

SOUTH BAY SHORE - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 2, 2022 • WWW.LONGISLANDMEDIAGROUP.COM

12 Months Out share their big day with their closest friends and family members.

The WPI has urged wedding planners to offer microwedding packages in an effort to capitalize on this emerging trend. Data from The Wedding Report indicated that the total number of weddings would rise to 2.77 million in 2021, an increase of roughly 650,000 over the yearly average. Even if only a fraction of couples who tie the knot in 2022 opt for a microwedding, a preexisting microwedding package can help wedding planners secure their business. Couples who opt for microweddings may do so to save money, but also to avoid the effort and save the time required to plan more lavish affairs. Such couples may be especially excited to work with wedding planners who can plan their weddings regardless of how small the Microweddings are not necessarily a affair may be. new trend, as couples have always had the option of getting married with only a small number of family and friends in attendance. However, microweddings Nothing should be off the table could be an emerging trend, and cost may have a lot to do with that. when planning a microwedding. The The Wedding Planner Institute notes fewer the people who will be there, that microweddings cost anywhere the more freedom planners and from $1,600 to $10,000, though the couples may have. The WPI notes that group notes that most microweddings microweddings afford planners and fall somewhere in the middle of couples the chance to get personal in that range. A 2020 survey from TD ways that may not be possible when Ameritrade found that 47 percent of organizing larger affairs. Planners respondents felt that cost of living was can focus on small details and allow the biggest threat to their financial couples to make their ceremonies security and long-term investments. and receptions as personal as they Engaged couples confronting the would like. Couples who prefer well-documented post-pandemic microweddings tend to emphasize increase in cost of living, including minimalism, so keeping things simple an unprecedented rise in housing is something to keep in mind when costs, could see expensive weddings planning microweddings.

Microweddings are an emerging as luxuries they simply can’t afford.

Microweddings could be viewed as a trend that make for a realistic option cost-effective way to combat the rising for couples and the people they hire to cost of living that still allows couples to help them plan their big day.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have been far-reaching.

People from all walks of life have had to confront the pandemic and the changes it wrought, and many of those changes could have some staying power.

Wedding industry experts note that one of the more noticeable and potentially long-lasting effects of the pandemic has been the rise of microweddings. The 2020 Real Weddings Study (COVID-19 Edition) found that 58 percent of couples who planned to get married in 2020 ended up reducing their guest list by a significant percentage. The average reduction was 41 percent, and some suspect small ceremonies may be the new normal in the years ahead.

National Wear Red Day® February 4, 2022 – Calls Long Island Women To ‘Reclaim Your Rhythm’ The American Heart Association, the leading global volunteer organization dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke, is rallying women on Long Island to “Reclaim Your Rhythm” on Friday, February 4 as a part of the Association’s Go Red for Women® National Wear Red Day®.

This February, Go Red for Women is helping women reclaim their rhythm by promoting easy opportunities for women to build healthy habits that work best for their life, giving them the best chance at life. On Friday, February 4, crank up the tunes, get on your groove on and wear red to raise awareness about the prevalence of heart disease in women and donate to save women’s lives.

According to the American Heart Association’s 2022 Heart Disease & Stroke Statistical Update, cardiovascular disease remains the greatest health threat for women.

Experts say the effects of COVID-19 are likely to influence cardiovascular health and mortality rates for many years, directly and indirectly, physically, and emotionally. This is why the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women® movement, nationally sponsored by CVS Health, alongside National Wear Red Day Matching Sponsor Big Lots, and locally sponsored by our Life is Why sponsors Mount Sinai South Nassau and Petro Home Services and our Live Fierce Go Red sponsor Northwell Health, is asking women to make moves today to have healthier tomorrows.

The first Friday each

February, American Heart Month, the nation comes together, igniting a wave of red from coast to coast. From landmarks to online communities, neighborhoods to news anchors, this annual groundswell unites millions of people for a common goal: the eradication of heart disease and stroke.

Through the Go Red for Women movement, the American Heart Association encourages people to take action in February by: • Wearing red on National Wear Red Day, Friday, February 4, 2022, to raise awareness about cardiovascular disease.

The iconic Red Dress pin and other apparel are available at ShopHeart. org.

• Making a donation to support the lifesaving work of the American Heart Association at WearRedDay.org.

Big Lots and the Big Lots Foundation will match online donations on National Wear Red Day, up to $333,333.

• Visiting CVS Health and making a donation at the register. Donations can also be made online at www.CVSHealth.com/ GoRed. • Joining Research Goes Red, a joint collaboration between the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women and Verily’s Project Baseline to engage more women directly to participate in research.

• Joining the conversation by using #WearRedDay, #HeartMonth and #GoRedforWomen on social media.

Money And Energy Saving Tips For The New Year

PSEG Long Island is sharing tips for customers to save money and reduce their energy consumption every day of the year.

National Cut Your Energy Costs Day was launched to encourage consumers to explore energy- saving opportunities.

In the past eight years, since PSEG Long Island was established, business and residential customers throughout Long Island and the Rockaways have done just that. More than $380 million in rebates have been distributed to customers through PSEG Long Island’s energy efficiency programs. That’s a savings of more than 2.1 billion kilowatts of energy since 2014 – and enough electricity to power more than 270,000 homes for an entire year.

These tips can help customers save money and energy any time of year: · Replace inefficient incandescent light bulbs with LED bulbs since, according to the U.S. Department of Energy, lighting accounts for about 15% of the electricity used in the home, and LEDs use approximately 75% less energy and last up to 25 times longer. · Reduce “phantom power” by using energy efficient power strips or unplugging electronic devices when they’re not

in use. Items plugged into outlets use electricity even when they’re turned off. · Use a programmable thermostat to automatically manage your home’s heating and cooling needs. ENERGY STAR estimates that properly used programmable thermostats can save about $180 a year. In addition, PSEG Long Island offers rebates on smart thermostats. · Lower your thermostat by just one degree to potentially reduce your heating bill up to 3%.

Lowering it two degrees during the day and five to 10 degrees at night will save even more. · Install timers and motion detectors to automatically manage indoor and outdoor lighting and help ensure lights are not on when they’re not needed. · Ceiling fans can be used to save energy in winter.

Setting a fan to rotate clockwise on low pulls cool air toward the ceiling, pushing warm air down into a room. · Seal windows and doorframes with weather stripping or caulk, and remove or cover window air conditioners to help to prevent drafts that waste energy and money. · Install a high efficiency air source heat pump (ASHP) to lower energy

usage, save money and provide greater comfort in cold and hot months.

Robust rebates are available from PSEG Long Island’s Home Comfort Program for ducted ASHP units, ducted geothermal heat pumps and ductless mini split systems. Additionally, PSEG Long Island’s Home Comfort PLUS program offers enhanced rebates for customers who meet certain income qualifications. · More moneysaving ideas and rebate information are available at https://www.psegliny.com/ saveenergyandmoney/ energystarrebates.

Independent annual evaluations by Demand Side Analytics (DSA) have found PSEG Long Island’s energy efficiency and renewable energy programs to be costeffective and energy-saving.

DSA’s 2020 evaluation showed that PSEG Long Island Energy Efficiency Program, including rebates, generated $1.74 in benefits to society for every $1 in costs to operate the program.
