This national recognition is a well-deserved tribute.”

A faculty member in Department of Political Science at Stony Brook University since 1989, Taber was appointed Dean of the Graduate School in 2013, and in 2014 was named Vice Provost for Graduate and Professional Education. He has served as undergraduate director and graduate director for the department of political science, as chair of the University Graduate Council, chair of the President’s Task Force on Graduate and Professional Student Housing, chair of the Provost’s Task Force

in political science, publishing the first article using this method in a major political science journal (American Political Science Review, 1992) as well as a widely-used text for computational modeling in the social sciences (Computational Modeling, Sage, 1996). He also received nine research grants from the National Science Foundation, has edited the journal, Political Psychology, and serves on the editorial boards of several leading political science journals.

Chuck’s most recent book, “The Rationalizing Voter,” co-authored with Milton Lodge, won three national awards for best book of 2013.

“The Giving Back Award is being awarded to leaders of institutions of higher education who exemplify what it truly means to ‘give back’ to others,” said Holly Mendelson, publisher of INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine.

“These administrators are role models, and we honor their efforts to promote diversity and inclusion on their campuses and in their communities.”

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP) will hold their annual Spring Family Fishing Festival on Saturday, April 1st, at Belmont Lake State Park.

“Freshwater fishing is an activity the whole family can enjoy, especially on Long Island,” DEC Regional Director Carrie M. Gallagher said. “The spring fishing festival at Belmont Lake State Park is an excellent way to kick off the fishing season and introduce the family to the sport. No license is needed to participate.

Festival visitors can learn about freshwater fishing opportunities on Long Island and local fishing clubs, try fishing for trout, participate in the casting contest, and more.”

Additional sponsors for the fishing festival include the Natural Heritage Trust, the Fisherman Magazine, and radio stations 106.1 WBLI and 102.3 WBAB. The festival begins at 10 a.m. and is free of charge.

Activities include open fishing, fishing instruction, fly casting demonstrations, and fish cleaning services.

DEC and a number of local fishing clubs will have a display and demonstration area, and participants are urged to try their hand at fly casting. Loaner rods and free bait will be available to participants throughout the day. The supply of loaner rods is limited and participants are encouraged to bring their own fishing tackle if they have it.

Children’s activities also begin at 10 a.m. and include an inflatable slide (weather dependent), the

To further encourage fishing in New York State, Governor Andrew Cuomo signed legislation in 2012 expanding the opportunity for free fishing clinics and allowing more New Yorkers to experience fishing for the first time with increased DEC free fishing clinics throughout the state. The Free Fishing Days program

began in 1991 to enable more people to sample the incredible fishing New York State has to offer.

Governor Cuomo’s NY Open for Fishing and Hunting Initiative, under the 2016-2017 budget, provides $3 million for State land access projects and $4 million for hunting and fishing infrastructure.

The crowd of more than 500 people-- which included LIU students and faculty, students from the United States Merchant Marine Academy, and members of the public – gave the General three standing ovations.

“Leaders like General Powell can help guide our University to expand opportunities for study and research and challenge our students to become the next set of visionary leaders,” said Kimberly R. Cline, President of Long Island University. “The philosophy of innovation and entrepreneurial thinking is woven into LIU’s history, and our new Global Institute will help us to carry that tradition to the forefront of world affairs in the 21st Century.”

The Global Institute at LIU will host other prominent leaders throughout the year, such as President Bill Clinton, General (Ret.) David Petraeus, and former CIA Director and Trump Presidential Transition Team member, Jim Woolsey.

Beware IRS Scams Suffolk County Sheriff Vincent DeMarco wants residents to be on alert for tax season scammers who may attempt to obtain copies of your W-2 forms, file your taxes and steal your refunds. This may happen in the form of official sounding phone calls asking you or your employer for copies of W-2s, or through email phishing scams that ask for personal and employmentrelated information.

If you receive such an e-mail, report it to the Internal Revenue Service by sending a copy to phishing@irs.gov with “W-2 Scam” in the subject line. You can also call the special hotline set up by the Treasury Inspector General’s Office at

800.366.4484 or visit them online at https://www. treasury.gov/tigta/contact_ report.shtml.

Another common IRS scam involves phone solicitors calling people to demand money to pay for taxes. These callers can be very aggressive and typically threaten to arrest people who do not meet their demands. Here are five tactics that scammers often use but the IRS will not do. If you receive one of these calls, hang up immediately.

If you do owe federal taxes, or think you might owe taxes, simply call the IRS at 800.829.1040. IRS workers will answer any questions.

The IRS will never: • Call to demand

•

•

• •

immediate payment, nor will the agency call about taxes owed without first having mailed you a bill.

Demand that you pay taxes without giving you the opportunity to question or appeal the amount they say you owe.

Require you to use a specific payment method for your taxes, such as a prepaid debit card.

Ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone.

Threaten to bring in local police or other law-enforcement groups to have you arrested for not paying.

The 25-minute informal question and answer session, which included questions from members of the audience, addressed such topics as General Powell’s service to the Army during the Gulf War, how he handled troubled diplomatic relationships as Secretary of State, and the separation of church and state. Powell also had an opportunity to share his insight on the recent presidential election, President Trump’s budget proposal and the administration’s alleged ties to Russia, as well as how the U.S. and its allies can most effectively fight ISIS. Overall, Powell stressed the importance of diplomacy coupled with strength, emphasizing that building relationships and trust with other nations must play a vital role in

“The Institute will bring world leaders to the region, introduce new brands of strategic thinking and problem solving, and assist decision makers here in New York in deepening their understanding of international relations.”

Author Visit

On January 25th, students at the Bay Shore Middle School library used Skype to speak with comic book author Mike Maihack.

Mr. Maihack presented to our school, as well as a few others, during Teach Graphix Week sponsored

by Scholastic, Skype in the Classroom and Microsoft Education. He has written many books including the Cleopatra In Space series and Cat Library. Mr. Maihack graduated from Columbus College Of Art and Design. He currently lives in Lutz, Florida, with his wife, two sons and cat.

During his presentation

Mr. Maihack told us about the many procedures he goes through to write and illustrate a book, and how he does them. He explained that he takes about a year to make each comic book because he draws every comic from the ground up.

The students in the library were able to listen and ask questions.

Stephen asked Mr. Maihack what his favorite comic books are. Gabby asked what inspired him to make his comic books. Kartic asked who his favorite comic book character is. He said to Stephen that Wonder

Woman and Batgirl are his favorite comic books.

He told Gabby that the things he does in life by reading and watching everything inspired him to do what he does today. His favorite activity as a child was to draw. This helped him to develop his comics when he became older.

Maihack started off posting drawings and small comics online.

We really enjoyed our Skype session with Mike Maihack. We hope to connect with many other authors.

WHATEVER FLOATS - Students on Team 61 at Bay Shore Middle School recently learned a lot about buoyancy and gravity. They used tinfoil to craft small boats, which they then filled with marbles to see how long it took for each boat to sink.

Pop Art Hearts

Second-graders at East Islip’s Connetquot Elementary School recently learned about pop artist Jim Dine before creating mixed-media hearts during art classes.

Under the direction of teacher Dana BelfioreO’Connell, students were taught how to use oil

pastels, paint, crayon and marker. They utilized the pros and cons of each material, such as turning crayons on their side to create texture and using the small tips of the markers to create intricate details not achievable with other materials. They tried various techniques and

experimented with using the materials in new and exciting ways.

“The paint was my favorite material to use because you can blend the colors to make new ones,” said second-grader Kate Habel.

These improvements will also create economic opportunities for local businesses and provide additional streams of revenue for the Town.

Atop the list of improvements to Town facilities is the revitalization of Roberto Clemente Park in Brentwood.

Supervisor Carpenter’s administration has overseen the removal of all contaminated material, and has started restoring the park so that it may once again be the cornerstone of the Brentwood community. The Town, with the assistance of a $2 million grant secured

by NYS Assemblyman Phil Ramos, plans to enhance the features of the park to include a Spray Park, and create a space for local families that rivals any local park in Suffolk County.

While committed to improving our parks, Supervisor Carpenter’s administration has also been alleviating troubling developments in residential neighborhoods.

The Town’s Division of Code Enforcement has overseen the demolition of many blighted properties that not only de-value surrounding properties, but pose a direct threat to public safety. The Town plans to increase enforcement procedures against these derelict

parcels, all at the expense of the neglectful property owners.

The final portion of the speech focused on harnessing the Town’s existing resources to create economic opportunity for Islip residents. To that end, Supervisor Carpenter’s administration will continue to promote and support Islip MacArthur Airport, which recently received the news that the Governor was putting $20 million in the budget to address connectivity between the LIRR and the airport terminal.

Supervisor Carpenter also highlighted the work of the Islip Industrial Development Agency, which has enabled companies to retain and create close to 5,000 thousand jobs locally. The number of active projects handled at Islip’s IDA over the past two years has surpassed any previous two-year period in its 42year history.

“We remain steadfast in our belief that Islip Town is one of the best places in the state to live, work, and raise a family,” said Supervisor Carpenter. “I promise our residents that with every hour, we will work to make Town government more responsive to the needs of our residents, and to create a better future for Islip’s families.”

Islip Town Supervisor Angie Carpenter addressed local officials and members of the public today during the annual State of the Town address. Supervisor Carpenter used the speech, “Building a better Islip…for all,” to review progress that the Town has made in multiple areas of governance, while also laying-out a vision for the future of Islip Town. The supervisor stressed the importance of teamwork and inclusiveness, and a willingness to embrace challenges that will ultimately lead to prosperity for Islip residents.

“I invite all in the Islip community, our residents, businesses, community and civic leaders, to become active participants in planning and shaping the future of our town, as we work together to build a better, more efficient and effective government for all the people living and working in the Town of Islip,” said Supervisor Carpenter.

Supervisor Carpenter touted the Town’s strong financial position, noting the Aaa rating from Moody’s, and stressed that now is the time to invest in critical infrastructure improvements in the Town.

Such projects would help residents and businesses alike, and save taxpayer dollars in the long-term.

Prestigious Award

Concord Law School at Kaplan University, the nation’s first fully-online law school, held its 26th graduation today at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles, celebrating 100 new graduates.

The graduating class includes 60 graduates of the Juris Doctor program, 38 graduates of the Executive Juris Doctor program and two graduates of Concord’s Small Business Practice LLM program.

Concord Law School Dean Martin Pritikin conferred the degrees.

“I am so proud of our graduates, who have managed the challenge of law school on top of full-time work and family commitments. I am also excited for them, as we are at a moment when the legal profession is increasingly recognizing the need to utilize technology to reduce cost and expand access, both for lawyers and the clients

they would serve--precisely what an online law school provides,” said Dean Pritikin.

The keynote address was given by Paul R. Kiesel, a partner at Kiesel Law LLP, and the Immediate-Past President of the Los Angeles County Bar Association, where he also served as past Chair of its Litigation Section. Currently Mr. Kiesel is the Co-Chair of the Open Courts Coalition, a bipartisan committee of attorneys from throughout California advocating for full-funding of the civil justice system.

“Concord graduates are what the legal profession needs right now. They bring maturity of prior work and life experience to the practice of law; and they are not burdened by the high debt levels associated with traditional law schools, and so have more flexibility to pursue their goals and represent a wide variety of clients,”

Community Leader Honored

said Mr. Kiesel.

During the commencement, several graduates were recognized for outstanding achievement, including: Michelle Roseway-Peart (Victoria, TX) received the Kaplan Award for Legal Services.

The Executive Juris Doctor Award for Academic Excellence was awarded to Andrew Stanley (Alabaster, AL).

Elizabeth Goodman (St. Charles, MO), Graham Washburn (Pleasant, CA) and James Timm (Oconto Falls, WI) each received the Jack R. Goetz Award for Academic Excellence, which recognizes the Juris Doctor graduates who achieved the highest cumulative grade point average.

The Sue Lane Award, honoring a student from the graduating class who embodies strong work ethic, compassionate nature, and service to the community, was presented to Rose Silva (Central Islip, NY) and Susan Lawrence (Lancaster, CA).

In addition to the commencement ceremony, The Honorable Judith L. Meyer, Los Angeles Superior Court, was present to officiate the swearing in of Concord Law School graduate Andrew Bell, class of 2016, to the California State Bar. A resident of Clackamas, OR, attorney Bell is one of more than 550 Concord graduates who have sat for and passed the California State Bar exam.

Islip Town Supervisor Angie Carpenter and the members of the Islip Town Board recently presented a Black History Month Award to Deanna Watts in recognition of her decades of service to our

community.

Ms. Watts has worked on large-scale projects and directly with individuals to help make a difference in the lives of our residents.

One of her most lasting contributions to the Town

came during her fifteenyear tenure as Chairwoman of the Board of Directors for the Islip Public Housing Authority, where she led the revitalization of Smith Street in Bay Shore.

Islip Town Supervisor Angie Carpenter and Councilwoman Mary Kate Mullen recently attended the 2017 Sharp Shooter Basketball competition, sponsored by the Islip Elks Club and the Town’s Parks and Recreation Department.

Hundreds of students from across Islip Town participated, continuing the annual competition’s tradition of promoting a healthy lifestyle for local youth.

Recently, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone was joined by local officials, the United States Golf Association (USGA) and representatives from the Shinnecock Hills Golf Club to announce the opening of the USGA Championship offices in the Village of Southampton in advance of the 2018 U.S. Open. The Championship will be held at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club on June 14th-17th, 2018.

Suffolk County and Shinnecock Hills Golf Club previously hosted the U.S. Open in 1896, 1986, 1995 and 2004. The USGA also recently announced that the U.S. Open will return to Shinnecock Hills in 2026.

“I applaud the USGA for having boots on the ground well in advance of the 2018 USGA

Championship,” stated County Executive Steve Bellone. “Charlie Howe, USGA Championship Director, along with other USGA officials have already engaged in planning with the Town and Village of Southampton and the Suffolk County Departments of Economic Development and Planning and Public Works. The Shinnecock Hills Golf Course is one of the best in the world and we are happy to host the U.S. Open in Suffolk County.”

Shinnecock Hills is one of the oldest formal organized golf clubs in the United States (1891) and also holds the title of the oldest golf clubhouse in the U.S. (1892). But most importantly, it was the first golf club to admit women from the day it was opened.

“The USGA is thrilled

to return to Suffolk County and the Town of Southampton for the fifth time, to celebrate the 118th U.S. Open Championship next summer,” said Charlie Howe, USGA championship director.

“The spirit of partnership and volunteerism is especially high in this community, and the entire USGA Southampton team is excited to have a home base here as we prepare to bring the ultimate test in golf to this historic venue.”

“We on the East End are looking forward to welcoming the world’s top golfers to the beautiful and historic Shinnecock Golf Club, which has hosted a US open in three different centuries, stated Legislator Bridget Fleming. “Along with County Executive Bellone, Mayor Epley, Southampton Town

officials and local leaders, my office is ready to assist to reduce any inconveniences so that the community and local businesses can fully benefit from the enormous economic opportunities and prestige associated with the U.S. Open.”

“The history, heritage, and natural beauty of the Shinnecock Hills Golf Club make it both a local and national treasure,” remarked Southampton Town Supervisor Jay Schneiderman. “We look forward to once again hosting this prestigious tournament and bringing some of the world’s most talented athletes to the East End.” “Long Island is a world-class destination and not just because of the incredible sporting facilities and premiere courses like Shinnecock

USGA Championship Office to Open Hills Golf Club.” said Jennifer Rothman, Sports Development Manager for Discover Long Island, “We are excited to partner with the USGA on this prestigious event to help promote local businesses and showcase to 2018 US Open attendees as well as the world at large what makes our island such a special place to visit.”

“All of us at Shinnecock are delighted to be able to welcome back, and work with, our friends at the USGA and, we feel greatly honored to be able to welcome the world’s greatest golf Championship back to Southampton, stated Nicholas Conlin, General Manager-Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. ” Tickets for the 2018 U.S. Open are anticipated to go on sale to the general

public in June 2017, approximately one year in advance to the event.

The event is expected to further drive the region’s $5.5 billion tourism industry as more than 200,000 spectators are expected to attend the 2018 U.S. Open.

“At the heart of our Championship, will be the support of around 5,000 volunteers. Since the launch of volunteer registration in early January, we’ve seen tremendous interest and support from the region.

For more information please visit 2018volunteers. usga.org.”

grant from the 2015 race.

“The funds we received will support local veterans and dogs in training at Paws of War.” The marathon course will again begin in Patchogue Village and pass through the heart of the downtowns of Bayport, Sayville, Blue Point and Heckscher State Park, and finish back in Patchogue Village in order to provide more water and scenic views. Race organizers will work with local businesses, civic associations and chambers of commerce to organize watch parties and events along the route.

“We’re really looking forward to promoting the Catholic Health Services’ 3rd Annual Suffolk County Marathon and Freedom Fest,” said Discover Long Island President & CEO, Kristen Jarnagin. “Not only does this event bring in many out-of-state visitors to enjoy all our island has to offer, but it also encourages locals to get out and experience home-grown flavors and

fare. Anytime an event can draw a crowd from both near and far, it’s a win for the region.”

The race will also have a special veterans category for all active military, reserve and retired veterans.

Runners who can’t make it to the race are invited to sign up as virtual run participants, eligible for t-shirts and medals.

The marathon is also part of the Long Island Track & Field Grand Prix Race series. All members of LITF are eligible to participate on an individual basis and are awarded points according to how high their score is in their age group. They are also eligible to participate as part of a LITF registered team. Top finishers are awarded merchandise prizes. The half marathon is an individual race and the Marathon is a team race.

For more information about the race, see http:// www.suffolkmarathon.com

Suffolk Marathon Set track the progress of their favorite runners. The new relay race will be made up of four-member teams running the full marathon.

A Freedom Fest, featuring musical entertainment, and the Taste of Long Island Festival, featuring foods, wines and beers from Long Island, will follow the start of the race.

“Catholic Health Services (CHS) is proud once again to be the Medal of Honor Title Sponsor for the 3rd Annual Catholic Health Services Suffolk County Marathon and partner with Suffolk County, Hunter EMS and Progressive Emergency Physicians to provide race medicine for this landmark event,” said CHS President & CEO Alan Guerci, MD. “More importantly, CHS is proud to continue its support of Suffolk County’s veterans.”

“The Suffolk County Marathon provides us with another opportunity to showcase our beautiful downtowns along the

South Shore – all in an effort to promote fitness and provide much needed funding opportunities to our local veterans,” Suffolk County Legislator Bill Lindsay said.

“Suffolk County has one of the highest veteran populations in the nation, so it’s always a pleasure to support initiatives that give back to those who have sacrificed so much to protect our country. I look forward to another successful marathon.”

“The Suffolk County Marathon has been an incredible opportunity for Suffolk County and I am pleased that it will be returning for its third consecutive year. I am very proud that over the past two years we have raised a lot of money for veterans and I am excited for the chance to do so again this year,” said Deputy Presiding Officer Rob Calarco.

“Many communities in my district are along the race route, including having Patchogue Village serve as the start and finish for

the race. So it gives the race a special meaning to me because it allows these great areas a chance to show off what makes them so special.”

A number of individuals and teams raised funds for other good causes, running with the support of sponsors. Among them was Matt Harbin of Kings Park, who raised $1,500 for research on Epidermolyis Bullosa, a group of inherited connective tissue diseases that cause severe blisters in the skin. Other teams raised funds for a nursing scholarship, to support organ transplant recipients and anti-drunk driving efforts.

“Thank you to the Suffolk County Marathon for having such a great platform for individuals to do their part in making a difference,” Harbin said. “I look forward to participating in this year’s race as well.”

“We are excited to be part of the Suffolk County Marathon 2017 kickoff,” said Dori Scofield of Paws of War, which received a

The 2016 race, with 2,677 registered runners, raised $140,000 for veterans’ organizations.

“This event is a great opportunity to support the veterans who have sacrificed so much to our community,” the County Executive said. “Because of these races, we are able to bring a spotlight onto their contributions and raise funds that will provide services for veterans in need.”

The race will also feature a GPS application that will allow people to

Big, Colorful Ideas For Small Spaces ( N A P S I ) — T h e C(NAPSI)—Making a small room appear larger can be as simple as using color creatively. To add some breathing room to a compact space, all you need are some colorful ideas.

“Color is one of the easiest, most affordable ways to transform the look and feel of a room,” says David Bromstad, HGTV® star and celebrity interior designer. “When used in a few well-chosen places, such as a feature wall or statement piece of furniture, color can have a big impact in a small space.”

Bromstad offers these color tips for transforming a space from tiny to airy: Create a focal point with paint. Paint a statement wall that draws attention away from the size of your space and toward something beautiful and vibrant. Bright or bold colors work well, as the

wall can appear to recede, creating the illusion of space.

Go big with lighter and softer colors. In areas beyond the feature wall, use lighter and softer colors to make the space seem larger. Light blues and greens add significant light subtly to a room.

Coordinate your colors.

Stretch your space and maximize impact by using color to coordinate your rooms and decor. HGTV® HOME by SherwinWilliams offers precoordinated collections of color, paint and wallpaper.

The color palettes can be used to ensure that your walls, furniture and accessories help create a cohesive look.

Reflect upon something.

Placed opposite a window or side by side, mirrors can spread light throughout the room to make spaces feel larger. A tall mirror draws the eye up, making ceilings look taller. When

angled toward your room’s focal wall, a mirror can also create the illusion of depth.

Paint something unexpected. Think beyond your walls and consider painting your mailbox or address numbers on your home, a stairway banister or a piece of furniture.

Add a colorful punctuation point by transforming a bedroom nightstand bright blue or a desk chair in an unexpected orange.

Everything else in the room will appear larger.

“Clever use of color adds the illusion of space and injects personality into it as well. That’s what’s great about color; you can dramatically alter the look of a room while expressing yourself in a fun way,” Bromstad adds.

Thunderbirds to Headline Bethpage Federal Credit Union, New York State’s largest credit union, and the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, are very pleased to announce that the United States Air Force Thunderbirds will headline the 14th annual Bethpage Air Show at Jones Beach taking place on Saturday, May 27th and Sunday, May 28th, 2017. The announcement was made today at the International Council of Air Shows (ICAS) Convention at the Paris Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada.

This will be the legendary demonstration squadron’s fifth appearance at the show. Long Island will also be welcoming a hometown hero – Thunderbird #7 Major Kevin Walsh.

Currently Director of Operations for the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, Walsh grew up in Levittown, and attended St. Anthony’s High School in South Huntington. Major Walsh’s family still resides on Long

Island.

Also announced at the ICAS Convention is the return of the United States Army Golden Knights Parachute Team in the 2017 lineup. The United States Navy Blue Angels have also committed to headline the 2018 Bethpage Air Show at Jones Beach. This will be the eighth time the U.S. Navy Blue Angels have headlined the Bethpage Air Show at Jones Beach, one of the country’s largest and most prestigious air shows.

“We are excited to welcome back the United States Air Force Thunderbirds to Long Island for their fifth headlining appearance at the Bethpage Air Show at Jones Beach,” said George Gorman, Deputy Regional Director, New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation.

“Over 439,000 spectators chose the Bethpage Air Show as their Memorial Day holiday weekend destination in 2015 when the Thunderbirds last

In Step

visited. We are confident that their return to Long Island in 2017 will draw an equally large crowd as well,” said Linda Armyn, Senior Vice President of Corporate Affairs, Bethpage.

Last year, the Bethpage Air Show at Jones Beach saw record breaking attendance when 453,000 people attended the show which included its biggest line up ever. During this show, for the first time, three jet teams performed including show headliners, the United States Navy Blue Angels, the Royal Canadian Air Force Snowbirds, and the Breitling Jet Team.

The Thunderbirds were formed in 1953, and since have been charged with demonstrating the professionalism of Airmen and the capabilities of modern airpower. Their performance at the Bethpage Air Show will include approximately 40 maneuvers, featuring formation flying and solo routines.

Spring and Things By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

‘Tis the time of year when all become Irish for a day, in the honorary sense anyway, and partake in the various St. Patrick’s Day celebrations held across Long Island and New York City.

The funny thing is – well, perhaps more ironic than outright humorous – is that when my family and I traveled to Ireland several years ago, we were somewhat surprised to learn that those native to the Emerald Isle do not commemorate the occasion in even remotely the same manner as we do. In fact, the holiday takes on a far more religious tone, filled with pilgrimages to mountaintops to honor St. Patrick himself; a far cry from the drinking and parades which wind through most main streets on this side of the pond.

Speaking of Ireland, and travel, I certainly wish to do more of it, both here and abroad. Before our family trip, I had never been on a plane in my 30 years on this earth; nor, of course, had I bothered to apply for a passport. Old-fashioned road trips across the good old U.S. of A had never held much appeal due to my, shall we say, occasional tendency toward motion sickness during any car ride surpassing two or so hours. And so, at this point, my travels have extended ever so slightly north and south of New York, about halfway down the east coast – no further. And my passport, while it proudly sports that one stamp from Ireland, has remained packed away ever since. Unacceptable, I know.

And with that, a new season is on the horizon, although whether Mother Nature will

cooperate remains to be seen.

March has always been a notoriously fickle month, what with the remnants of winter storms to contend with, spring rains hovering overhead and blossoms waiting to burst forth from the trees. It is a time of beginnings, of growth, of shaking off the chill of the last several months to head out and feel the warmth of the sun as we explore the great outdoors. No need to pack a suitcase – just hop in the car and go, in any direction, and enjoy the beauty on this long island that we call home.

So, as you head out in your green attire this week, take a deep breath of fresh air and start planning some fun activities to see you through to summer. Spring may be a gateway to the season of sun and surf and sand, but it is pretty spectacular in its own right. Enjoy it.

A Thought By: Ian Murdock

I sent a gentle thought far out into the air hoped it to be caught by the beauty with long dark hair Will she feel it when it’s near her what I have tried to express that what it is, I meant for her is a caring sweet caress

Evening’s Drape By: Joan Amato

Encroached upon by leaden clouds Nightfall swallows light Draws it below into infinity Rays acquiesce into evening shimmers Surrender to its endlessness as Shadows tug the day down into its Envelope of darkness Wrapped in the spirit of softness Illumined by the scattering of clouds Wanting to push through night’s passion Evening explodes into a kaleidoscope of hues The quarter moon vies with Venus at its side Appears slyly grinning its half smile Its brilliance rises again to break through Steely encumbrances of cloudy obscurity Deepened by the muted light of sundown as Brilliance outshines darkness at every corner.

In Times Like These By: John McGowan

In times like these When dissension looms Let’s put aside our differences And repair the gloom After all as a nation we are truly one We’ve done it before so let us shun The bickering, the anger and all the unrest And put our mettle to the the test By doing so we will unite Defending our freedom and doing it right.

Long Island Yarn Crawl After two successful years, nine yarn shops from Mattituck to Port Washington will be participating in the third annual Long Island Yarn Crawl from March 30th through April 2nd, 2017.

Over the course of four days yarn crafters - knitters, crocheters, weavers and spinners - are invited to participate in this self-guided tour of our Long Island yarn shops, which will have extended hours and special activities throughout the weekend.

It is a great way for crafters to explore what our local fiber community has to offer and meet other local yarn enthusiasts.

Participants are invited to either pick up their Long Island Yarn Crawl Passport from a participating store or download it from the yarn crawl’s website, and have it stamped as they “crawl” from shop to shop. Crawlers who collect stamps from all 9 stores will be entered to win amazing prizes: the grand prize, a $100 gift card from each of the participating stores; or second prize, over $400 of yarn donated by gold sponsor Knitting Fever. Participants who drop off a passport with fewer than 9 stamps will be entered to win a separate drawing. Further prizes will be announced as the

yarn crawl approaches!

Special edition Long Island Yarn Crawl bags can be purchased at participating shops, or are available as a free gift with a $40 minimum purchase (while supplies last). Each store has specials planned and will have drawings for door prizes during the crawl. Details will be made available closer to the Yarn Crawl weekend here on our website: http:// longislandyarncrawl.com/ This year’s Yarn Crawl features shops from all over Nassau & Suffolk counties: • Altman’s Needlearts – Mattituck • Knit – Roslyn

• The Knitted Purl – Oyster Bay • The Knitting Cove & Yarn Shop – Port Jefferson • The Knitting Garden – Huntington • The Knitting Place – Port Washington • The Knitting Store – Oceanside • Long Island Livestock Co. – Yaphank • Sew What’s New & Yarn Too! – Islip Special thanks goes out to Long Island’s only yarn distributor Knitting Fever (http://knittingfever.com/) for helping make this event happen as our gold

sponsor.

Also, as part of the weekend event we are encouraging participants to give back to the community by knitting or crocheting hats and blankets for preemies which will be donated to local Long Island Hospitals. More details can be found on our site: http:// longislandyarncrawl.com/ charity-knitcrochet/ New this year: a mystery knit-along and crochetalong! Two cowls have been designed - one knit, one crochet - just for the yarn crawl. The patterns have been broken up into 9 sections, with one section’s instructions available

at each store. Visit all the stores to collect the whole patterns! After the crawl, the patterns will be available on the crawl website as well as on Ravelry.

We hope that yarn crafters of all backgrounds will explore Long Island’s rich fiber community during the yarn crawl weekend and make connections with fellow crafters. The different offerings and events at each shop are sure to provide crafting inspiration and ideas to all.

It will be a wonderful Long Island celebration for yarn enthusiasts and sure to be an event to remember.
