Today, the Long Island Museum announced that its Long Island Long Ago school program was awarded a grant from Target Corporation (NYSE: TGT).

In recognition of the efforts of the Long Island Museum in inspiring people of all ages with an understanding and enjoyment of American art and history, the grant will help the museum reach more than 12,000 Long Island school children annually, including those from u n d e r s e r v e d communities.

“We are very fortunate to have the support of organizations like Target that understand the importance of the arts. It is imperative that we continue to afford our children the opportunity to grow and learn from what the Long Island Museum has to offer,” said museum president and CEO Jackie Day. The grant is part of Target’s ongoing efforts to

PET’S PLACE

BY SHARON HUBBARD - Sharonadoptpet@aol.com • avoiceforanimals.org

1.

Dear Readers, I am so disappointed in the response - or, should I say, lack of response - by the town of Smithtown to the slaughter of close to 28 cats (my previous number of 15 was incorrect) at the town shelter.

I was told by an exasperated office worker that the phone in Supervisor Vecchio’s office was ringing off the hook and that Supervisor Vecchio “wasn’t going to do anything about the shelter.”

She refused to give me her name. Supervisor Vecchio did not return my phone call.

Calls were sent right over to the shelter and, depending on when you called, you received the following excuse: “yes, rescue organizations were called,” or “the cats were sick.”

Neither of those excuses were true. However, if shelter director G. Beatty found the shelter was overcrowded or he needed to “clean up the shelter” due to an official visit, all avenues to save lives should have been explored: adoption events (there were none)...contacting our wonderful rescue organizations (none received a call).

Readers, what steps do you think the public should take to effect change at the Smithown Shelter?

Please send me your comments.

Readers, if you are trying to volunteer at the Hempstead Town Animal Shelter or are “on hold” awaiting orientation, please send me an e-mail. The animals are languishing in their cages as they continue to wait for the animal shelter to get its act together.

Comings & Goings By: Jamie Lynn Ryan “Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.” Those are the words my eyes fell on as I began this column. How very appropriate.

Transitioning from vacation mode back into “real world” work mode has to be one of the more difficult processes known to man. I’m sure there are worse; but, at the moment, this feels like the steepest climb.

Forget the 600+ e-mails that piled up while I was away.

Never mind the sheer volume of stuff that managed to accumulate in every corner of life over the course of six days.

(Six days. Not even a full week!) But what about the intangible “stuff” – all those

subtle things you tend to miss out on during any extended absence? The latest news and gossip… the various comings and goings of others… all those little daily nuances we barely notice…

Sometimes, it seems like we are starting from square one, doesn’t it? So much for momentum.

I suppose most of the area school children must feel the same way. Just when they get into the groove of lessons and homework and exams – that’s it. Summer vacation. Time to vegetate, and forget all that they’ve learned, over the next two months. Two whole months. Can you imagine being off from work for that long, with the expectation of having to climb back into a set

routine, meet deadlines and – oh yeah – not lose your mind in the process? I can’t.

Absence can do many things – clear your head, refresh your motivation, make your heart grow fonder for whatever it is you may be fond of – but one thing it rarely does is eliminate the stress you will inevitably face upon your return. No one has managed to figure that one out yet.

Does this make the absence any less worthwhile? No, I don’t think so. Because, for whatever headache you may be greeted with when you come back, the deep breath you take as you go is one to savor.

And we could all use a little calming of the mind.

Long Island Opera For the first time in more than a decade, Long Island Opera is returning with live-staged opera productions in Nassau and Suffolk counties, beginning with a September 15th performance of George Bizet’s Carmen at Guild Hall in East Hampton.

The two-hour production, which will start at 8 p.m., is a full-staged costumed performance with piano that will be led by Music Director Fabio Bezuti and star Long Island native Kara Cornell in the title role.

A mezzo-soprano, Cornell, who hails from Smithtown, has performed throughout the United States and abroad.

She has sung leading roles with Union Avenue Opera in St. Louis, Opera Theater of Pittsburgh, St. Petersburg Opera in Florida, Center City Opera in Philadelphia, and, New York's Mosaic-Arts,

Capital Opera, Northport Opera, Smithtown Center for the Performing Arts, Hubbard Hall, Stony Brook Opera, Musaic Concert Series and Metropolis Opera.

Cornell, who has played Carmen professionally before, is looking forward to playing the “sultry, sexy gypsy” in her first Long Island Opera production.

“Not only am I looking forward to finally getting perform back on my own turf, but Carmen is one of my favorites,” she said.

Carmen will also star tenor David Guzman as Don Jose; baritone Eric McKeever as Escamillo; bass Christian Zaremba as Zuniga; soprano Elise Brancheau as Micaela; baritone Robert Aaron Taylor as Moralès; soprano Margaret Meyer as Frasquita; and mezzosoprano Elizabeth Pojanowski as Mercédès with baritone Thaddaeus Borne and tenor Donald

Groves playing the part of the smugglers. Long Island Opera’s singers hail the United States, Colombia, France, Italy, Mexico, Germany and Russia, and have performed with national and international opera companies including the Metropolitan Opera, Houston Opera, LA Opera, New York City Opera, and at various festivals throughout the United States.

“We are very excited about the talent we have this season,” said Long Island Opera’s Executive Director Joy Berta.

Long Island Opera, which incorporated as a 501(c)3 in 1961 and recently celebrated its 50th anniversary, is the oldest opera company in existence on Long Island.

In the beginning, Long Island Opera performed a handful of operas throughout Nassau County but by the mid-

1980s its repertory had flourished and Long Island Opera acquired the props, sets and costumes, along with scores to over two-dozen operas and operettas. In August 2009, Berta, an opera singer herself joined the company as Executive Director with the ultimate goal of bringing captivating, high-quality, fully-staged operas back to Long Island.

Over the last four years, Berta has dedicated her time and talent to revive the company, promoting, organizing and producing performances throughout Nassau and Suffolk counties in an effort to bring opera back to Long Island.

“We want Long Islanders to share with us the wonderful experience of live opera performances right here on Long Island,” said Berta adding, “We understand our audience is key to our

success. It is their support, patronage, and enthusiasm that will help us thrive as Long Island’s Opera company.”

Long Island Opera’s 2012-2013 season will also include performances of Giuseppe Verdi’s Rigoletto on October 6th and Giacomo Puccini’s La Boheme, featuring the Children’s Orchestra Society, on April 7th, 2013 at Molloy College’s Madison Theatre in Rockville Centre.

“Long Islanders don’t have to travel to the city to experience great opera,” Berta said. “We are bringing live opera performances to Long Island with an increased vitality and energy for Long Islanders to enjoy through this magnificent art form.” She added, “With every performance, our goal is to captivate the audience; we tell the stories the great composers intend us to

“Opera has a bright future here and we will continue to bring the world’s greatest operas to Long Island,” said Berta.

“All we need is an audience and we know there are a multitude of opera lovers on Long Island – some of them may not know it yet.”

Cornell agreed, saying, “Long Island Opera is putting on productions that appeal to the masses.

Why not come out and support your local arts program? Just give it a try?”

During the program, administrators spoke with the students about how to read their schedules, the requirements needed to graduate with either a Regents or advanced Regents diploma, and the rules of the building.

This September, the approximately 250member Rocky Point Class of 2016 began a new chapter of their academic journey – the start of their high school careers. While the students are fortunate to be transitioning between schools located on the same campus, the first-day jitters and anxiety commonly associated with such a major milestone were still present for many of the freshmen as the days of summer vacation came to an end. To help the students feel prepared for

The Lourie Center for Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis (MS) at Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital hosted a patient reunion that brought the first pediatric MS patient treated at Stony Brook together with newer patients to celebrate. The event, held at the Wang Center on the Stony Brook University campus, marked the 10year anniversary of the opening of the Center, which was founded by Lauren Krupp, M.D.,

Professor of Neurology, Stony Brook University School of Medicine, and Pediatric MS Program Director.

In 2002, the National Pediatric MS Center at Stony Brook was formed to address the unmet medical needs of children with MS. The Center was the first of its kind in the nation. This year Stony Brook University received a $2.5 million gift from Robert and Lisa Lourie to advance research and clinical care at the Center, which was subsequently renamed in their honor.

Historically viewed as an adult-onset disease and difficult to diagnose in children, MS affects approximately eight-toten thousand children in the U.S. “These children and young adults who we have treated for years should be

proud of how they have handled the challenges of their disease,” said Dr. Krupp. “We were thrilled to celebrate with them and mark the 10-year anniversary of the Center.”

Dr. Krupp said that because MS is characterized by relapsing and remitting symptoms with unpredictable timing, children are particularly affected by the disease course, not only physically, but also emotionally. For these reasons, Dr. Krupp explained, patient and family access to pediatric MS specialists and other professionals at a multidisciplinary center is critical for integrating care of the multiple facets of the disease and addressing the well-being of the patients and their families. Comprehensive care that emphasizes the

continuity of services is also essential for the longterm management of the disease.

The reunion provided an opportunity for increased connectivity and social support for members of the young MS community.

The celebration also provided a chance to share their experiences with each other and the doctors, nurses, and staff of the Lourie Center.

Maisha Leonard, 27, from Setauket, a longtime patient of Dr. Krupp and the first patient treated at the Center, attended the reunion.

Maisha’s diagnosis fueled Dr. Krupp’s inspiration to develop a pediatric MS center at Stony Brook.

Approximately 15 other patients and their families took part in the celebration.

Many of the patients already knew each other from the Teen Adventure Program (TAP) that is run by the Lourie Center each summer. In its eight year, the TAP is a unique program designed to teach young MS patients about their disease and ways to live a healthy life. The camp offers tools to build a positive self-image while developing confidence and life-long friendships.

On Wednesday, September 12th, the Rocky Point UFSD will be conducting a community forum for the purpose of presenting information and soliciting community feedback regarding potential capital projects and the use of existing capital reserve funds. All community members are invited to attend.

The district’s facilities are in sound condition, based on the community’s ongoing support for maintaining effective, adequate learning environments; however, building systems do have a life span, and district leaders recognize that prudent investment in our facilities will always be required. To that end,

while discussing our plans for the future. There are many things to be proud of as we move forward into the 2012-2013 academic year.

In May, we graduated the largest class in the history of Suffolk County Community College with 4,012 graduates; last year, our College had the largest number of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) students in the country selected from a single institution to conduct research during the summer at the nation’s leading laboratories. Additionally, our workforce and training programs are consistently heralded for their excellence and their impact on the community.” For a full summary of the College’s accomplishments for the past year, access the following link: http://www.sunysuffolk.ed u/About/accomplishments 1112.asp.

In her remarks, Chairwoman Irizarry stated, “As we begin this new academic year, and on behalf of all the members

of our College’s Board of Trustees, I pledge our continued commitment to govern the College in a manner that ensures confidence in the institution’s leadership, and in its academic, financial and strategic priorities.

We will continue to embrace the College’s educational mission and will seek to take advantage of every opportunity to build support for this institution.”

“I see this convocation as a testament to the capacity of our community colleges to excel as institutions of learning,” said H. Carl McCall, Chairman of the State University of New York (SUNY) Board of Trustees. “I know the value of a liberal arts education because it was my education – it broadened my thinking and gave me the skills to succeed. I also know that SUNY’s community colleges know how to deliver the kind of liberal arts experience that molds leaders and innovators in all fields, because we see them do it year after year.”

to Science department laboratories/classrooms to meet modern instructional standards.

All projects to be discussed at this forum would be funded entirely through the existing Capital Reserve fund, which was established through voter authorization in 2009.

Approval to access these funds is required through public referendum, but would in no way impact the current tax levy of the district. The Board of Education would have to vote to schedule such a referendum if it believes this effort is in the best interest of the schools and community.

On Monday evening, August 27th, students, faculty and administrators at Suffolk County Community College convened on the Ammerman Campus for an Academic Convocation.

The Convocation coincided with the first day of classes for the fall semester at the College.

Carl McCall, Chairman of the State University of New York (SUNY) Board of Trustees and remarks by Dafny Irizarry, Chairwoman of the College’s Board of Trustees.

While addressing the audience, Dr. McKay noted, “Today we celebrate the College’s progress, the success of our faculty, students and staff, all

informal dialogues about some of the district’s outstanding capital needs have taken place in recent years, with the focus being sharpened in recent months to assess the feasibility of undertaking some of these projects with existing (Capital Reserve) funds.

At the forum, which will commence at 6 p.m. in the High School auditorium, district administrators will present several potential capital improvements at Rocky Point High School, including: replacement of the existing track, which is beyond its useful life; upgrade of the stadium field to artificial turf, which would increase usability; and renovation

GREETING STUDENTS - Edna Louise Spear Elementary School Principal Thomas Meehan greeting students as they arrive. Photo provided by: Syntax

While the weather outside was reminder that there were still a few days of summer vacation left to enjoy, junior high and high school students in the Three Village Central School District eagerly headed back to school to attend their new buildings student orientation programs this August.

The incoming seventhgrade classes at P.J. Gelinas and R.C. Murphy junior high schools had the chance to take a walking tour of their new schools, open their lockers, and speak with upperclassman volunteers from the schools’ student government organizations who were on hand to assist their new classmates during the event.

Speaking about the purpose of the event, Gelinas Acting Principal Paul Gold commented, “Today was a wonderful opportunity for our incoming seventh-grade students to become familiar with the Paul J. Gelinas Junior High School. With over 300 seventh-graders and their parents in attendance, the students were provided access to the entire school so that they could see their classrooms, try their lockers, reunite with old friends and make new ones from other elementary schools. With the help of our grade eight and nine student government volunteers and their teacher/advisor, Brian Scripture, our

Summer Orientation

seventh-grade attendees had a chance to become familiar with their new buildings and will hopefully feel more comfortable as they come to school on September 4th."

Murphy Principal Vinny Vizzo added, "It was awesome to have to noise back in the hallways after a quiet summer. The seventh-graders and their parents quickly became part of the Murphy family.

We are so excited to have them join us!"

During the orientation program at Ward Melville High School, members of the incoming 625-student tenth-grade class joined their parents in the school’s auditorium to listen as district administrators provided a brief overview on the rules of the building and the school’s multitude of offerings. An overarching theme in each of their messages was for the students to get involved and ask for help whenever they need it.

Student Government President and Board of Education liaison Yaela Collins shared a story about her first day of tenth grade and encouraged the students, “Be authentic; be yourself. Everyone here is very accepting of each other, and our school has so many things to offer each one of you. I urge you to think about things beyond the classroom; be sure to get involved.”

Following the talk, the

students had the chance to tour the high school, practice opening their lockers and speak with district staff members.

The back-to-school orientation work will continue after the start of school, with each of the junior high schools hosting an annual welcome breakfast for junior high students new to the district, as well as co-curricular fairs to introduce the buildings’ variety of offerings.

CHAMBER STREET FAIR - Legislator Tom Muratore recently attended the First Annual Farmingville Street Fair, sponsored by the Farmingville Hills Chamber of Commerce.

All Smiles Despite inclement weather, students and faculty of the Port Jefferson School District were off to a bright start for the first day of school on Tuesday, September 4th.

Students began arriving at Port Jefferson Middle School and Earl L. Vandermeulen High School around 7:15 a.m. to get a head start on their day. The schools’ faculty and staff, along with Superintendent of Schools Dr. Kenneth Bossert, greeted the children as they entered the building.

Students at Edna Louise Spear Elementary School received a similar warm welcome later in the morning as they began their academic year. The district wishes all students and staff a successful 20122013 school year and looks forward to a wonderful year ahead.

Reminder: You should buckle up properly on every trip—no matter the distance—especially since most crashes occur close to home.

Shortcut: “I’m picking up several kids after soccer practice and I’m going to put my 8-year-old daughter in the front seat so all the children can fit into the car.”

Reminder: All children under age 13 are safest when riding in the backseat and properly restrained in a car seat, booster seat or seat belt.

Shortcut: “We will be driving more people in our car than we have seat belts. Since it’s a short trip, it’s not a big deal for someone to ride on another person’s lap.”

Reminder: It’s never safe to ride on another person’s lap.

Each

passenger should be properly restrained on every trip.

Shortcut: “My son is 10 years old and 4’6” tall.

He’s big enough to use a seat belt now.”

Reminder: The American Academy of Pediatrics now recommends children continue to use beltpositioning booster seats until they are 4’9” and the seat belt fits properly.

Don’t Text And Drive dramatic or tense texting conversation, it could be too enticing to focus on the phone instead of the road.

The Stats The U.S. government’s official website on distracted driving, www.distraction.gov, cites multiple statistics on the dangers of this careless behavior: • Using a mobile phone while driving, whether it’s handheld or hands-free, delays a driver’s reactions as much as having a blood alcohol concentration at the legal limit of .08 percent.

• Driving while using a mobile phone reduces the amount of brain activity associated with driving by 37 percent.

• Drivers who use handheld devices are four times as likely to get into crashes serious enough to injure themselves as those who don’t.

• An estimated 11 percent of drivers are talking on cell phones while driving at any point during the day.

The Steps 1. Impress upon teens the need to not text or talk

on the phone while driving by not doing so yourself.

Beyond providing an example of responsible behavior, this creates a safer driving environment.

2. Explain to your teens the seriousness of the situation and let them know that it is important to have a plan in order to avoid temptation. For example, have them always keep their cell phone off while driving or in the backseat out of reach to avoid distraction completely.

3. Learn more from the experts in mobile technology at LG by visiting the company’s LG Text Ed website, www.lgtexted.com. As part of its Text Education campaign, LG offers insights and solutions on how to avoid possibly harmful behaviors such as distracted driving. In order to keep distractions to a minimum, LG encourages all drivers to never text while driving and to always use a handsfree Bluetooth device when operating a vehicle.

Drug Take Back Day Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center’s Pharmacy Department has scheduled a drug “take back” day on Saturday, September 29th, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., in partnership with the federal Drug Enforcement Administration. Members of the community may safely dispose of unused or expired medications rather than discarding them in the garbage or flushing them down the

toilet which could lead to e n v i r o n m e n t a l contamination. There will be bins in the hospital’s main lobby for the collection of these items.

This past April, Good Samaritan successfully collected more than 240 pounds of unused medications. Unused or expired pharmaceuticals can pose unnecessary risks to individuals and the community. Drug “take back” days offer a

safe and environmentally friendly disposal program that proactively addresses potential hazards associated with improper management.

The program helps protect the natural environment, avoid accidental poisoning and helps prevent against prescription drug abuse.

For further information on the proper disposal of unused or expired drugs, please call 631.376.4444.

Clear Up The Clutter (NAPSI)—While many homeowners complain that they don’t have enough space, they may have more than they think.

Surprisingly, according to a survey by the American Cleaning Institute, most clutter in the home is really the result of disorganization.

“The majority of people have plenty of space, they just aren’t using the space wisely or efficiently,” explains Perri Kersh, a

professional organizer, owner of Neat Freak and member of the National Association of Professional Organizers. “The attic, for example, is an ideal place for storing certain infrequently used items such as holiday decor.”

Organizational products can help you make better use of valuable space that is otherwise wasted. The new AtticMaxx™ Shelving System, for example, provides organized attic

(NAPSI)—There are steps parents and others can take to drive down the dreadful rate of traffic injuries and fatalities. An estimated 6,000 people are killed and 500,000 people are injured annually because someone was texting, e-mailing or talking on a mobile phone while driving.

The Facts Dr. Joel Haber, a clinical psychologist and LG Text Ed council member, explains that for teens, texting and driving is an even bigger problem than it is for adults.

First, kids text more.

Texting is their preferred mode of communication.

According to a recent LG Text Ed survey conducted

by LG Mobile phones, while half of all teens admit to texting while driving, only 4 percent of parents are aware of this.

Second, teens are inherently novices when it comes to driving. They especially need to focus on the road to compensate for any lack of driving skill or experience.

Third, teens can literally be driven to distraction. If a teen is caught up in a

Winthrop-University Hospital will participate in the ADA’s Step Out Walk To Stop Diabetes on Sunday, September 30th, at 10 a.m. at Jones Beach State Park. This noncompetitive, family and team-friendly event is aimed at bringing together members of the community to raise funds for diabetes research, education and advocacy.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 26 million children and adults in the United States have diabetes – a group of diseases marked by high levels of blood glucose resulting from defects in insulin production, insulin action, or both.

What’s more, an estimated 79 million U.S. adults have prediabetes, a

(NAPSI)—Parents of young children need to be better educated in order to avoid making potentially dangerous safety mistakes when they are on the go.

The Problem Automobile crashes remain a leading cause of death for children and it’s important that parents consistently and correctly use the appropriate car seat to keep their child passengers safe. Many parents may be unknowingly endangering their children as three out of four car seats are not used correctly, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Some Answers Busy parents and caregivers may be tempted by safety shortcuts when transporting children.

AAA offers simple reminders to protect parents’ most precious cargo.
