Avoid Accidents (NAPSI)—A few simple steps, when it comes to ladders, could save 300 lives a year, according to the World Health Organization.

In addition, 164,000 emergency room treatments could be avoided.

The Problem The number of ladderrelated injuries in the United Sates increased by more than 50 percent in 15 years, says a study in an issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.

Helpful Hints These tips from the Consumer Product Safety Commission can help prevent you from becoming such a statistic: • Always level the ladder on firm ground.

• Have someone hold the lower end.

• Keep ladders away from doors that can be opened.

• Only one person on a ladder.

• Don’t stand on the top rung.

An Answer Many ladder accidents are related to gutter cleaning and maintenance. It’s a hazard homeowners face several times every year.

A good way to eliminate it is to get rid of your gutters and install the time-tested Rainhandler ( r a i n h a n d l e r. c o m ) Rain Dispersal system.

Because of a patented louver design these gutters cannot collect leaves or debris and require no cleaning or maintenance. You may never have to climb a dangerous ladder to clean gutters again.

Albert Statton III Named Greenlawn Post 1244 Legionnaire of The Year Legionnaire, Veteran and Firefighter Al Statton II has been honored by American Legion Greenlawn Post 1244 as “Legionnaire of The Year 2021” Al founded the program “Operation Enduring Care” 11 years ago to provide personal hygiene and comfort items, gently used clothing, packaged new underwear, socks and non-perishable meals for the residents of the veteran’s homeless shelter located on the grounds of the Northport Veterans Medical Center. At the time, he was struggling to survive and recover from several forms of malignant cancers. His trips to drop off items at the shelter,

helped put a positive touch on appointments for follow up surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.

Five years ago, Greenlawn Post 1244 sponsored “Operation Enduring Care” as a program of the Post and has supported Al’s tireless efforts as the program has grown.

Al continues to provide for the residents at the Northport Veterans Residence, now managed

by United Veterans Beacon House.

In addition, twice a month, Al and his wife Connie provide needed personal care items to inpatients in the Community Living Centers at the VA. These

residents are the elderly, infirmed and terminally ill veterans of all war eras since World War II. The VA does not provide the residents with these items, so if they have no one to provide these items they must be donated.

“Operation Enduring Care,” sponsored by American Legion Post 1244, provides needed items to assist veterans that are inpatients, in danger of being homeless or facing life altering health conditions. We rely on the generous support of our friends in the local community.

Three Prominent News Broadcasters Step Up To Help Life’s WORC

Besides being wellknown news broadcasters, Geraldo Rivera, Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity also have a deep respect for, and willingness to help Life’s WORC (www. lifesworc.org), a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism through its residential, community and trust services. The organization, which this year is celebrating its 50th anniversary, recently received $50,000 each from these prominent media professionals.

According to Victoria Schneps-Yunis, it was Geraldo Rivera, who made the first contribution. It was Geraldo’s riveting investigative report in the early 1970s, which exposed the atrocities of Willowbrook State School, then the largest institution in the nation serving children with developmental disabilities.

Victoria’s daughter was a resident there and she had long been fighting for better conditions.

Geraldo’s report, which won him a Peabody Award, and Victoria’s fervent advocacy, ultimately led to Willowbrook’s closing.

Victoria then founded Life’s WORC and opened its first group home in Little Neck, Queens 50 years ago. Geraldo has been

by Victoria’s side since - a longstanding friend and supporter.

It was a visit by Geraldo, his wife Erica Levy, and Victoria to Bill O’Reilly’s home in Montauk where Bill learned more about Life’s WORC. Over lunch, Victoria and Geraldo shared the history of Life’s WORC and the amazing progress it has made over the past five decades. Talk turned to the organization’s 50th anniversary celebration, during which Victoria, Geraldo and Bill will all be honored. That led to Geraldo announcing his $50,000 donation, which Bill then matched. Sean Hannity, who had just hosted Geraldo and Erica at his East End Long Island home the previous night, made it a triumvirate and together, the “Three Musketeers” as Victoria fondly referred to them, helped create a new legacy fund for Life’s WORC. Victoria noted that the three broadcasters were all brought up on Long Island and they are supporting a cause in their own backyard adding that, “Life’s WORC is an organization that helps more than 1,000 people with developmental disabilities and on the autism spectrum in warm, loving group homes and day programs supporting them and their families.”

More About Life’s WORC Life’s WORC was

founded 50 years ago after the closing of Willowbrook State School back in the early 1970s. As a young reporter, Geraldo Rivera exposed the deplorable conditions that existed within the then largest institution in the nation serving children with developmental disabilities.

Rivera first learned about these conditions from Life’s WORC founder Victoria Schneps Yunis.

Her daughter, Lara, diagnosed at an early age with severe brain damage, was a resident at Willowbrook.

When cuts in state funding caused the institution to fall into extensive disrepair, Schneps Yunis, along with other concerned individuals, picketed to fight for the rights of Willowbrook’s more than 5,000 residents. Rivera’s report, which earned him a Peabody Award, ultimately forced the closing of Willowbrook.

Schneps Yunis started Life’s WORC and opened its first home in Little Neck, Queens. Its first residents were former Willowbrook residents.

Today, Life’s WORC provides beautiful homes located across the region, from Nassau and Suffolk to Queens and Manhattan, in addition to community services, financial and trust services, and the programs and services of its Family Center for Autism.

businesses together to create a strong fabric that celebrates independent businesses.

While Plaid Friday may have originated in California, it has now spread to local towns across the country. Plaid Friday precedes Small Business Saturday, meaning holiday shoppers can turn their two-day, postThanksgiving shopping excursions into 48 hours of opportunities to support small businesses.

Shoppers have many different ways to support the Plaid Friday movement.

• Look for signage or advertising regarding Plaid Friday.

Many establishments may advertise Plaid Friday sales. Keep an eye out for signs or hashtags on social media, such as #plaidfriday, #shoplocal and #dinelocal.

• Let others know you’re supporting local businesses. Spread the word about Plaid Friday to others who may not be aware of the movement.

• Wear plaid clothing on Plaid Friday to show local business solidarity.

• Search community blotters and other local websites to find out more about Plaid Friday efforts in your community.

• Certain shops may have scaled-back sales due to COVID-19 restrictions. Continue to support these businesses as much as possible, taking advantage of curbside pickup or delivery options that can further streamline holiday shopping.

• Explore new offerings.

Some businesses you frequently shop with may have altered their services and products to fit the changing times.

As a result, you may be able to purchase a greater variety of items all in one store.

Local shopping is at the heart of Plaid Friday.

Shoppers who want to avoid the typical rush of Black Friday shopping can visit small local businesses.

State lawmakers gathered at the Long Island Welcome Center on the Long Island Expressway to commemorate the success of their hard work to address safety and efficiency concerns on the Long Island Expressway.

The team of legislators, including members of both the state Senate and Assembly, were able to successfully direct attention to and ensure state infrastructure resources were dedicated to fixing the LI Expressway.

The governor’s office recently announced that the project would replace more than 280 miles of pavement on key stretches of the LI Expressway in Suffolk County, significantly improving the mobility of the hundreds of thousands of motorists travelling between Long Island and New York City every day.

In addition to hundreds of miles of new road in Suffolk County, the project will also address issues

with entrance and exit ramps in Queens at Kissena Boulevard, Utopia Parkway and Lewis Boulevard.

“I want to thank the Hochul administration and the DOT commissioner for hearing our pleas and for advancing the schedule of paving the LIE from Exits 47-65 to fix the unsafe conditions for motorists and motorcyclists,” Assemblyman Keith P. Brown. “We are happy to see it being done. It’s overdue!”

“I am grateful to Gov. Hochul and the New York State Department of Transportation for expediting the muchneeded repaving of the LIE,” Assembly Member Doug Smith said, “I am happy that the concerns of our residents and local officials have been heard and look forward to seeing the project completed.”

“The repaving will make travel on the LIE safe and will keep women and men in labor busy for years to come,” said Assembly

Member Jodi Giglio.

“Thank you Gov. Hochul and NYS DOT for making this long awaited project happen.”

“I have spoken to the DOT on the critical need to repave the LIE and today’s announcement is an important first step to ensure it gets done,” said Senator Alexis Weik. “The safety of our motorists is paramount and I am pleased that the DOT is making repaving the LIE—a majority of which will take place in the 3rd Senate District—a priority.”

“The state DOT moving forward with bids to resurface the LIE could not come soon enough,” Assembly Member Joe DeStefano said. “This is a vital roadway for all of Long Island and must be properly maintained. The state must stay on schedule with the bidding process and get the job done.

The safety and economic wellbeing of millions of people depends on it.”

Supporting Small Businesses Supporting small businesses ensures more money stays in the communities those businesses serve. The U.S. Small Business Administration says $48 out of every $100 spent at

a small business stays in the community. On the flip side, when a person spends $100 at a big-box store or a national chain, only $14 remains in the community.

Local businesses are more likely to utilize other local

businesses, such as banks, service providers and even farms. Small businesses also pay employees, many of whom are local and shop local, thereby keeping even more dollars in their communities.

STATE LAWMAKERS CELEBRATE WIN IN FIGHT TO REPAIR LIE Assemblymembers Doug Smith (R,C,I-Holbrook), Jodi Giglio (R,C,I- Riverhead), Keith P. Brown (R,C,I- Northport), Joe Destefano (R,C,I- Medford) and State Senator Alexis Weik (R- Sayville) stand beside section of LI Expressway soon to be repaved.

The holiday season sometimes arrives with a frenetic pace. At the dawn of the holiday season, there seems to be so much to fit into a relatively short period of time, including planning celebrations and shopping. The rush often begins the Friday after Thanksgiving on a day called Black Friday.

Plaid Friday was born out of a recognition that the frenzied nature of Black Friday may not be for everyone. The event was created in Oakland, Calif., to transform holiday shopping for family and friends into a more connected, pleasurable activity than Black Friday. Plaid Friday promotes the diversity and creativity of local and independent businesses. On Plaid Friday, customers are urged to shop locally and enjoy choosing gifts in a more leisurely fashion.

According to event organizers, the name “Plaid Friday” was chosen from the idea of weaving individual threads of small

Elwood-John H. Glenn High School’s Class of 2022 valedictorian and salutatorian are Anson Kwan and Trinity Hausch, respectively.

A National Merit Scholarship Program Semifinalist, Kwan also was named a NYSSMA All-State and SCMEA All-County musician. He serves as captain of Glenn’s cross-country, winter track and spring track teams, and is the alto soloist for the jazz band and a vocal percussionist for the Acapelawood acapella group. He plans to study chemistry in college.

“I am honored to have this recognition and I am really thankful for all the teachers, my parents and my family and friends who were able to help me get here,” Kwan said.

A National Merit Scholarship Program

Commended Student, Hausch is a member of the school’s National Art Honor Society and Science Research Club and won first place overall in the Feinstein Institute of Northwell Health’s Medical Marvels competition. She is interested in learning

about life sciences and plans to study biophysics or biomedical engineering in college.

“I really do feel grateful, especially for my science teachers, because I wouldn’t have the passion I do for pursuing the sciences without

teachers who actually care about their students and encourage their interests,” Hausch said. “I also am very thankful for my parents because they encourage me to work on my academics.”
