For the 46th consecutive year, Northwell Health employees gathered to honor the teachings and vision of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The ceremony, held at North Shore University Hospital’s Rust Auditorium, was simulcast to other Northwell facilities across the New York/ metro area.

This year’s keynote speaker was Dr. Freeman Hrabowski, president of UMBC (The University of Maryland, Baltimore County) and a child leader in the civil rights movement, who was featured in Spike Lee’s 1997 documentary, Four Little Girls, the story of the 1963 bombing of Birmingham’s 16th Street Baptist Church.

His presentation focused on the importance of inspiring young people to take action.

Dr. Hrabowski spoke to students who had been invited to the event saying: “Each of us ifthe product of

our childhood experiences.

Think of it…what you do right now could determine what you do in the future.”

He then recounted his memories of hearing Dr. King speak for the first time as a 12 year-old boy in Birmingham. Following the tragic bombing at the 16th Street Church, he said he was determined to join other young students in a peaceful march through the streets of Birmingham.

But first, he sought his parents’ permission to march.

“At first, they were against it. But the next day, my father gave his permission,” Dr. Hrabowski said. “They told me they prayed about it, but in the end, they supported me.” That support from family and community is a cornerstone of his concept of empowering young people “On a day when we celebrate the achievements of Dr. King,” he said, “I would encourage our

young people to dream big. Dream about the possibilities… decide what you want to do in life. And then, think about what it takes to reach that dream. What I took away from the [civil rights] movement was the importance of dreaming about the possibilities,” he said. “Children have an enormous capacity to think and act. That’s what we want parents and teachers to remember.”

A noted researcher and author, Dr. Hrabowski’s research and publications focus on science and math education, with emphasis on minority participation and performance. He was recently named by President Obama to chair the President’s Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for African Americans. His latest book is Holding Fast to Dreams: Empowering Youth from the Civil Rights Crusade to STEM Achievement.

An Ode to Driving on LI By: Jamie Lynn Ryan I’m willing to go out on a limb to say that even those who would count winter as their favorite season do not enjoy driving in the snow and icy conditions it brings, especially if they live on Long Island.

Just the other morning, after a surprise helping of the white stuff, I was reminded of the joys of a morning commute in about six inches of slush…

The privilege of driving behind those with an aversion to cleaning off their rooftops and back windows… The honor of inching behind drivers who seem to think that to surpass 20 mph would be criminal…

The thrill of testing out my brakes every car length or so, as people ahead come to a screeching halt due to…what, exactly? I couldn’t tell you.

Sure, I understand the anxiety which can come from being forced to travel in such conditions – to a degree. But when a few select drivers and their inability to, you know, drive are the cause? Well, that’s where I lose patience.

I’m pretty sure they teach this stuff in driver’s ed, in defensive driving courses – or in the big old handbook known as common sense. It’s not rocket science people. #1. You need to see the road, so clean windows and mirrors are a must. #2. The rest of us need to see the road as well, so having an 18-inch clump of snow fly off the back of someone’s car into your windshield… not the most conducive to aforementioned point. #3. Brakes do not respond well on wet pavement, snow or ice – so it is best to

refrain from slamming on them for no good reason.

Simply letting up on the gas pedal and, oh yes, steering can work wonders.

These are just a few of the more important points I encountered on my journey to work, on a 20-mile straight stretch of road with no fewer than a dozen or so drivers wreaking havoc. We’ve been fortunate this winter, but that’s not to say we have been – or will be – spared completely.

A few more morning or evening rush hours like that, and we’ll all be counting down the days to spring.

Stay tuned next week as Buddy the Betta celebrates his much-anticipated 1st Birthday in the bowl and offers his take on this thing called “Valentine’s” Day.

They made my life colorful.

They were many different colors, Blue, Red, Purple, Green And Brown.

Phoenix Award Gala Set North Shore Horse Rescue & Sanctuary (NSHR), a local ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) non-profit horse shelter, is hosting its Second Annual Phoenix Award Gala on Friday, March 4th, at 7 p.m. This year’s event will honor the Novak Family, owners of the Long Island Game Farm – Wildlife Park & Children’s Zoo (LIGF), for their outstanding work in promoting prevention, health, humane practice and advocacy for all animals. The Novak Family and the NSHR Board of Directors invite all Long Island animal lovers to join

them for the event, which is taking place at Giorgio’s, located at 100 Fox Hill Drive in Baiting Hollow, New York.

This Annual Gala aims to raise the additional funds necessary for year-round care of its permanent and fostered horses.

The organization also welcomes volunteers of all ages and experience levels, though anyone age 14 to 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and younger horse lovers may apply to volunteer as part of a group-based day project through youth clubs or school classes.

LIGF President Diane Novak and her daughter

Melinda Novak, Vice President of LIGF, are being honored for their animal education efforts through programs at the zoo, as well as for their support of NSHR. “We are truly thrilled to be honored with this recognition and award,” says Melinda Novak. “Everyone at the park works especially hard to inspire educational values for our visitors – young and old – and to maintain the safety and health of our animals. Our interactive experiences, combined with the overall passion of our staff, encourages others to become global citizens and to promote animal welfare.

North Shore Horse Rescue is a great example of professional advocacy and we are delighted to receive such an honor.”

Founded by Laurel Palermo and Tom Renzetti in 2002, NSHR began as a small boarding facility known as Gold Rush Farms. The pair rescued their first horse, Phoenix, in 2003 after finding the five-year-old mustang mare pregnant and neglected, which ultimately led to the formation of the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. NSHR relies solely on its 100 percent volunteer base to operate the facilities each day and support of its continued

mission of saving the lives of abandoned, abused and unwanted horses, many of which are up for slaughter.

The ultimate mission of the organization is to find loving, informed homes for these gentle giants, while also committing to allowing permanent residents to live out their lives in a safe, stress-free environment. Funded in part by grants from the ASPCA, the farm is also verified by the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries.

The North Shore Horse Rescue’s Second Annual Phoenix Award Gala includes a sit-down dinner, with a cocktail hour and

subsequent reception.

Dress attire is requested.

Tickets to the gala are $95 and currently available through the organization’s donation page or by contacting the farm directly at 631.334.8258 or northshorehorserescue@ live.com. Those wishing to order the tickets directly online are asked to include “Annual Gala” and the number of requested tickets in the “Purpose” section of the form.

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.”

As our population ages, more and more spouses, adult children and friends find themselves in the role of caregiver to a loved one suffering from a chronic, often catastrophic health condition.

D-Day Vet Visits Pearl Harbor, and plunged America into World War II. He soon enlisted in the United States Army as an infantryman. On June 6th, 1944, he was among the thousands of allied troops which landed on the beaches of Normandy, France. Sam told students of his experiences and feelings being away from home. He talked about his respect for Great Britain. He remembered seeing General Kermit Roosevelt, son of President Theodore Roosevelt, on the Normandy Beach and his leadership that encouraged the troops to advance against the

enemy.

He discussed surviving injuries during the siege at Bastogne, his joy at America’s eventual defeat of the Nazis, and his horrors he saw when his outfit liberated one of the concentration camps which held Jewish prisoners.

Mr. Stahlman also spoke about the courage of American women in and out of the military during the war. Mrs. Zalewski’s class was moved by Mr. Stahlman’s history and impressed when he showed them his two Silver Stars and two Purple Heart medals.

D-DAY VET VISITS - Connetquot Central School District’s Edward J. Bosti Elementary School 5th grade students stand for a picture with American D-Day veteran Mr. Stahlman, and teacher Mrs. Tabatchnik. The school recently welcomed Stahlman on campus to talk to students about his experiences serving his country and his active duty during World War II to help students better understand the significance of Veteran’s Day.

ONE WARM COAT - NBTY Associates in New York collected more than 500 new and gently used coats to help Long Islanders in need of a warm coat this winter. The coat drive benefited the One Warm Coat program and were donated to Long Island Cares for distribution to people in need.

FACULTY RAISES FUNDS - Connetquot Central School District’s Edward J. Bosti Elementary School Principal Dr. Gail Cholden recently invited faculty and staff who had donated money to the school’s 2nd annual Jeans for the Troops fundraiser to take a group picture. Fundraiser participants wore jeans to school to show support for United States military. Money raised for the ‘Jeans for the Troops’ program helps returning veterans in the area of employment, eliminating homelessness and assisting in securing benefits. The program matches veterans with potential employers and provides further job training, education or career planning. Photo by: Joseph Maniaci

Mr. Stuart Pollak, Principal of the Sycamore Avenue Elementary School in Bohemia, was pleased with the turnout for the school’s recent PTAsponsored fund-raiser held at the SweetFrog Frozen Yogurt Shop, in Sayville.

Sycamore students and

parents, along with many other Connetquot friends, stopped by for a cool snack, and to help the PTA effort on November 11th, Veterans Day. A number of student-friends from the Edward J. Bosti Elementary School stopped by in the early afternoon, to join in

the fun!

Congratulations to the members of the PTA for arranging such a tasty fund-raiser on a day the students were not in class, so they could also honor America’s veterans!

Letter from the Library...

As we begin 2016, the Connetquot Public Library wishes all of our patrons a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. For many of us, the New Year signifies hope and change for the future. The library looks forward to a year of new and exciting programs for all ages, programs to educate, enlighten and entertain. With New Year’s resolutions on the cusp of realization, the library is more than happy to help you achieve all your wellness goals.

From cooking to fitness, informed discussion to quiet deliberation, the library has something for everyone. On Wednesday, January 20th, Barbara Bonavoglia hosted a program on Gluten Free Cooking. She discussed her 13 years of experience

cooking a gluten free diet that began with a diagnosis of Celiac disease and her subsequent journey to a healthier life. She provided recipes and recommended restaurants with a gluten free menu. Through trial and error, Barbara has learned to prepare a number of dishes including desserts that are not only delicious but safe for gluten free diets.

“The part can never be well unless the whole is well,” Plato. There are many roads on the path to wellness. Some begin with a healthy outlook, the adoption of a healthy lifestyle including what we eat and what we think. The library offers various types of exercise classes to keep the body flexible and agile. Begin with Easy Tai Chi to help

improve balance and ease stress. Senior Stretch and Flex and Senior Fitness classes include sitting and standing exercises and light weights with a pace for beginners or experienced. Yoga classes emphasize posture, meditation and breathing. For those looking for a high energy, cardio aerobic workout, Zumba combines diverse musical rhythms and an upbeat tempo. Zumba begins on Tuesday, February 16th, at 6 p.m.

Exercise classes are open to all Connetquot Library card holders.

For those with health insurance questions, the HICAP (Health Insurance Information Counseling and Assistance Program) Volunteer helps to answer questions about Medicare, Medicaid and

Islip Town Councilman Steve Flotteron recently presented eight young women from Troop 1177 with their Girl Scout Silver Awards at a special ceremony commemorating their achievements.

The girls worked individually and as a group to become educated on social issues and pressures facing young residents in the Islip community, including self-harm,

looking for healthy alternatives in the kitchen. From different ways to use herbs and spices to spicing up vegetables and sweetening desserts, our cooking classes offer an array of ideas and recipes. Some of these programs are for district residents only and require registration, but you will have some fun and go home with healthy and delicious menu ideas. The library also hosts some programs that are open to all in the community.

The library also offers discussion programs to improve wellness and achieve inner peace.

They gathered with more than 40 participating high schools on Saturday, January 9th at Stony Brook University’s Jacob Javits Lecture Center for a presentation and simulcast broadcast from New Hampshire. After the presentation, each team received a kit of parts, which they will use along with other materials to

build a 120-pound robot in support of the program’s STRONGHOLD™ theme and challenge.

The 51 teams set to participate in the competition have six weeks to construct the robot before the main event at Hofstra University on April 1st and 2nd.

SACHEM KICKS OFF - Members of the Sachem High School robotics team are pictured displaying the contents of the kit of parts.

James Wilson Young Middle School eighthgrade technology students recently turned into airplane engineers during an interactive building project.

Using WhiteBox learning software, students worked in small teams to design,

test and build glider airplanes. After learning about such concepts as thrust, drag, lift efficiency ratio and the theory of fight, students constructed their gliders using computers. They tested the planes virtually, making adjustments along the way,

before eventually printing the templates for their design.

After cutting out and assembling the planes, students each had the chance to take them for a test flight in the school’s gym.

Day of Acceptance Connetquot School District’s John Pearl Elementary School recently brought together students and staff to celebrate the school’s growing international program with International Day of Acceptance, a day set aside to celebrate the lives of people with disabilities

and the prevention of bullying at schools.

During the event, students sang songs, read poems, related stories about their experiences with acceptance and provided examples of how to help people feel included.

Students papered the
