Veteran Pins Awarded Suffolk County Legislator Steve Stern participated in a special ceremony to award Veterans Pins to First Responders who have also served our great nation in the military.

hands-on lessons in science, as well as an opportunity to give back to their community.” “While textbooks are an essential teaching tool, there is no greater lesson for our students than going out into the field and directly interacting with what they are studying,” said Doshi STEM Institute Interim Principal Jack Lenson. “When our students see firsthand that there are real world implications to their research with real world applications, it creates a genuine enthusiasm for the curriculum.”

BE MORE POSITIVE, HAPPY, HEALTHY & SMART That is what you will learn by reading, Positivity! Unlike other books regarding happiness, this book builds a foundation on being smarter, obtaining the skills necessary toward gainful employment and managing money successfully. How can a person be happy if they do not have a good job, cannot give a good speech and cannot invest wisely? In the highly competitive world in which we live, a foundation must be built that makes people happy and healthy. The foundation starts with positive thinking and a healthy lifestyle but it should be coupled with continuing education and prowess in accumulating and managing money. This answers the question, how can a person be happy in today’s world. “Reading Positivity is a game changer for every reader. The unique wisdom and philosophy of life that Harry Edelson shares proves that life can be easy and joyful for everyone. Imagine a world if seven billion people lived by Positivity! Thank you for sharing this masterpiece. Harry Edelson has figured out true keys to a good life – which is the one common denominator everyone wants. And I know, because I’ve interviewed over 400 of the top CEOs, and I see a lot of wisdom and very successful people…and Harry has truly figured it out. What a gift you offer in this book.” ROBERT REISS, HOST & CEO, THE CEO SHOW “As Benjamin Franklin said: ‘An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.’ The wisdom in Harry Edelson’s book is like finding a great investment. It continues to grow in value and will pay dividends throughout your life. This is the same philosophy that the brilliant investor, George Soros, has advocated through his Open Society Foundations where I served as a Trustee for many years” JOHN W. ALLEN, INT’L INVESTMENT BANKER AND CHAIRMAN OF GREATER CHINA CORP “The interesting thing about Harry Edelson is that he is usually the smartest guy in the room and what is amazing, the happiest guy in the room. His book tells it all and can be easily absorbed by adults and students alike.” ELIZABETH KABLER, TRUSTEE, ANNENBERG FOUNDATION TRUST AT SUNNYLANDS, FOUNDER, NY CENTER FOR LIVING

effects of pollution in local ecosystems. The team of Nassau BOCES environmentalists recently took a trip to a “superfund” site in Glen Cove. A superfund site is an ecological site that his been contaminated by pollutants to the point that its ecosystem is dying. The students collected a
more as the study unfolds, including ways to resolve the pollution problem and return the site to health once more. “Our students are developing an intricate understanding of the effect humans have on the environment,” Living Environment Teacher Paulette D’Allessio said of the Doshi science students and their work. “They are learning about the impact we have on our local ecosystems and how it effects us, then expanding upon that knowledge to work toward possible solutions. All the while, they are getting invaluable

The students of the Nassau BOCES Doshi STEM Institute are looking into some fairly serious issues affecting Long Island’s ecology. In their ongoing Human Impact Study, these science scholars are conducting research both in the field and in the lab to determine the short and long term
samples back to their school lab for analysis. They conducted a variety of tests to determine pH, oxygen levels and overall health of the specimens they collected. As they conducted their analysis, the young scientists received a visit from Dr. Mohammed Rana, a biology professor at St. Joseph’s College with an expert background in environmental science. Dr. Rana brought a group of his students who are working on a similar study in Patchogue. The college students and Doshi STEM students compared notes, shared their research and discussed what they had learned. Thus far, the Doshi STEM scientists have determined that the Glen Cove site is affected by heavy metals in runoff from a local factory. A nearby stream is carrying the runoff away from the factory and depositing the pollutants in the affected ecosystem. The students hope to learn

Mercy Gives Back Each year at Christmas time, employees of Mercy Medical Center “adopt” underprivileged families and donate new clothes, toys and gift cards that are distributed the week of Christmas. This year, 19 families were presented with
Christmas cheer, including two that welcomed newborns in December - one set of twin boys and a baby girl. Also, the Oceanside Knights of Columbus collaborated with the hospital with their charitable initiative “Coats for Kids,” donating two
cases of brand new winter coats to help keep children warm this winter season. In addition, during the month of December the staff at Mercy delivered more than 20 cases of food to St. Agnes Cathedral’s food pantry to benefit residents in need.

New Programs for the New Year The Huntington Opportunity Resource Center will offer some new programs as 2016 begins, helping to provide training in the hospitality industry to disadvantaged and displaced workers and offering a site where the aged, blind and disabled can sign up for public insurance/assistance programs. The employment training is being offered as a result of two state grants, each for $50,000, the Town obtained through St. Joseph’s College, which has partnered with the Opportunity Resource Center on a number of programs and which will conduct the training in conjunction with Suffolk County Community College. The first grant provides $50,000 in Workforce Investment Act funds for occupational skills training of dislocated workers to prepare them for full-time jobs (35 hours or more per week) needed by a business group or businesses in the region. A “dislocated worker” is defined as an individual who: either who has been terminated or laid off, or who has received notice of termination or layoff, and is unlikely to return to a previous industry or occupation; has been terminated or laid off, or has received notice of termination or layoff, as a result of any permanent closure of, or substantial layoff at, a plant, facility or enterprise;
was self-employed, but is unemployed as a result of general economic conditions or because of natural disasters; is a displaced homemaker - an individual who has been dependent on the income of another family member, but is no longer supported by that income; or is unemployed or underemployed and is experiencing difficulty in obtaining or upgrading employment. The second grant provides another $50,000 in Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act funds to train dislocated workers in special populations (for example, exoffenders, limited English proficiency, individuals with disabilities, recipients of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families and veterans) who require classroom-based occupational skills training in order to be qualified to be hired for full time employment in the region. “These grants enable the Opportunity Resource Center to provide additional services to Town residents and become an even more valuable resource for all those who can benefit from the center’s programs,” Huntington Supervisor Frank P. Petrone. “We value the partnership with St. Joseph’s College and thank them for their active role in helping to obtain this grant.” “We are always looking for new ways to broaden the way the Opportunity

Resource Center addresses the need for services that will help residents improve their lives, whether by linking them to assistance programs or by preparing them for jobs that are in demand,” Councilwoman Tracey Edwards said. “These training programs have the potential to be life-changing, and the Town is pleased to be able to serve our residents this way.” In addition to basic courses preparing people for entry into the workforce, including basic workforce skills, the training programs will offer two specialized sequences in the hospitality industry and in welding and soldering. The hospitality sequence will provide students with customer service training, basic server skills, interpersonal relations, problem solving and listening skills, as well as basic hospitality finance and computer skills that align with the industry. Those skills are required for entry level positions in areas that include, but are not limited to, customer service, receptionists and information clerks, housekeeping staff, healthcare support workers, activities aides and food service workers. The goal of this training is to ensure entry level proficiency of the various un/underemployed and special populations that will enable them to advance into higher and
better positions over time. St Joseph’s, whose instructors will offer the course, has developed a highly respected hospitality and tourism management undergraduate program that has a proven track record with successful job placement of students prior to and upon graduation. The soldering and welding sequence will be run by Suffolk County Community College’s Advanced Manufacturing Training Center, under an agreement with St. Joseph’s. The training will begin at the Opportunity Resource Center and continue at the college’s Brentwood campus. The sequence will lead to American Welding Society certification. The Opportunity Resource Center will also be a location for the NassauSuffolk Hospital Council’s Consumer Assistance for the Aged, Blind and Disabled Program. That program, which is overseen by the Suffolk County Department of Social Services, provides in-person enrollment assistance for programs and services. The target groups are people who fall into one of three categories: certified blind, certified disabled or 65 years of age or older. Additionally, Medicare recipients looking for supplemental Medicaid insurance, as well as people looking for Medicare savings programs to help with Medicare expenses

JANUARY 6 - JANUARY 12
Aries
March 21 - April 20 Aries, practicality is a big part of your personality, but sometimes thinking through the reasons to do something over and over can be tedious. Let loose a little bit this week.
Taurus
April 21 - May 21 Taurus, expect to feel pulled in two directions this week. It’s a pivotal time at work, but in the same measure, you have much going on at home. Think things over carefully.
Gemini
May 22 - June 21
Cancer
June 22 - July 22 Cancer, you will get to your destination soon enough, but the trip may be a bit of a headache. Patience is essential this week; otherwise, you may give up prematurely.
Leo
July 23 - August 23 Misinformation is spreading, so research everything to make informed decisions this week, Leo. It may help you avoid an expensive mistake down the line.
Virgo
August 24 - Sept. 22 Virgo, you may have a wonderful time with family or friends this week, even if you are crunched for time. Savor the small moments as they come your way.
Sept. 23 - October 23 Libra, this is a good week to catch up on paperwork, filing or tedious tasks you have let fall by the wayside. Make use of the slow week to recharge.
Scorpio
October 24 - Nov. 22 Scorpio, you will be missed as much as you miss another person this week. Wait out this separation a little while longer, keeping in mind that your reunion is on its way.
Sagittarius
November 23 - Dec. 21 Do whatever you need to do to rejuvenate your spirit, Sagittarius. Spend some more time with friends and avoid prolonged solo activities. Soon your motivation will return.
Capricorn
Dec. 22 - January 20 Capricorn, this may turn out to be a strange week, as you can’t seem to fully focus on anything.You may get frustrated at your inability to concentrate, but that focus will return soon.
Aquarius
January 21 - Feb. 18 Aquarius, if you become too wrapped up in business or personal obligations, take a step back and reevaluate your priorities. Some things need to be rearranged.
Pisces
Feb. 19 - March 20 Pisces, you are on a quest this week to find the perfect gift for a friend. This person will appreciate your efforts, and your bond will only grow stronger.
Continued From 10 his prolific career, created for such popular twentieth century publications as True, Argosy, Men’s Story, Sports Afield, Outdoor Life, American Weekly and The Saturday Evening Post, as well as movie posters, book jackets, and advertisements reflecting American popular culture and the diverse artistic genres that comprise his exceptional creative journey. *** The Brush is My Pen: Art that Tells Stories February 26th through July 30th, 2016 The Brush is My Pen explores American art in the narrative tradition, from the 1820s through today. From the classicallyinfluenced historical and genre paintings of 19th century artists to powerful contemporary narrative work, artists have long created richly evocative stories. In this exhibition’s 18 paintings, prints, and photographs, chosen primarily
from the Long Island Museum’s permanent collection, artists have explored every aspect of the human condition, just as writers of literary and stage productions. The exhibition explores narrative art through four separate themes - work, satire, drama, and hope - and includes a range of work from artists of every era. William Sidney Mount’s Loss and Gain, 1847, a satirical work in support of the American temperance movement, is a typically striking example of the artist’s multi-layered storytelling. Edward Lamson Henry’s Home Again, 1908, a nostalgically-tinged work expressing longing for an America that was rapidly fading, tells the tale of a family reunion. And Margery Caggiano’s Michael as Don Manuel Osorio de Zuñiga, 1978, is both an expression of love for the artist’s Spidermant-shirt-wearing grandson and a sly reference to the famous Francisco de Goya painting of a similar title.
In Step
Whether exploring an aspect of history or simply appealing to the viewer’s sense of humor, all of these works prove the old adage that a “picture is worth a thousand words.” *** Colors of Long Island February 26th through May 1st, 2016 This annual student art exhibition affords an opportunity for students in grades Kindergarten through 12 to show their artwork in a museum setting. Hundreds of proud parents and teachers flock to the museum every year to admire the work of these talented Long Island students, many of whom go on to study art in college. Please join in celebrating these young artists this spring. Colors of Long Island is sponsored by Astoria Bank. *** The Long Island Museum is located at 1200 Route 25A in Stony Brook.

with Jamie Lynn Ryan
Life As We Know It By: Jamie Lynn Ryan “See the glass half full, and find the good in everyone…” So wrote one of my former teachers in the pages of my high school yearbook, a sentiment that seems to resonate more with each passing year. Too often do we become consumed by the monotony of our daily routines, allowing the negativity which surrounds us to engulf what always begins as the best of intentions. With this New Year, I hope to maintain a certain degree of optimism in the face of what can only be classified as Life. As Frank Sinatra sang, “You’re ridin’ high in April, shot down in May; but I know I’m gonna change that tune when I’m back on top, back on top in June…” And so it
goes, month-to-month, dayto-day, even hour-to-hour. You just simply don’t know what may be in store over the horizon, an uncertainty which inspires both excitement and apprehension, depending upon your makeup. The only constant is the need to adapt with the rolling tide, rather than allowing it to sweep us away. We may not be able to control what obstacles come our way; but we can surely dictate how we react to them. So, as we begin 2016, let us dispense with whatever shallow resolutions we have most likely already broken, in favor of something far more meaningful – a new way of thinking, of being, of living. Let us find that good in everyone and see the bright side of the cloudiest of days. Call it misplaced idealism
if you will; but to me, it is perhaps the greatest sense of realism there is. Learning to deal with life in all its glory and chaos is as real as it gets. To all my readers, I thank you for yet another year of support, of sweet sentiments and gentle critiques. 2015 was a year of milestones: my 10th year working here at South Bay’s Neighbor Newspapers, my 500th In Step column and the expansion of our blossoming sister publication, Seasons™ Magazine. It was also, let us not fail to mention, the debut of Buddy the Betta and his occasional In Swim features. {Buddy sends his regards as well, and thanks his supporters for their constant fan letters and accolades.} Here’s to another year of making memories… and, most importantly, of making the best of things.
