Sun Upholstery & Draperies, located at 30 Stewart Avenue in Huntington, is celebrating 90 years of serving the community.

Owner Paul Grimes has been in the field for as long as he can remember, working with his father for many years. He loves the craft and the opportunity to be creative, but mostly, he enjoys seeing the clients’ satisfaction with the finished projects.

Sun Upholstery provides all upholstery/ reupholstery and window treatments, including Hunter Douglas and Graber Window Fashions. “But the best part,” said Grimes, “of what we offer is personal, friendly experience.”

Est. 1925

They conduct all work on-premises, and the clients are able to benefit from this hands-on attention.

As a result of such a personalized approach, Sun Upholstery & Draperies has been honored with numerous awards, and has been recognized by the Huntington Historical Society as the Town’s oldest shop. They have won Best Upholstery & Window Treatments for three years in a row, and were recently inducted into the 2014 Business Hall of Fame.

As a means of giving back to the community, Sun Upholstery has donated its services to the Huntington Historical Society in helping with antique restorations. They have also donated floor cushions for the playroom at STEPS To End Family Violence, an agency in East Harlem that provides support for survivors of domestic violence.

Sun Upholstery regularly offers holiday specials at the end of each year and, in April, holds an anniversary sale on all outdoor cushions and window treatments for summer.

Stop down and see what they have to offer today!

Human Nature?

By: Jamie Lynn Ryan Let me start off by saying, accidents happen. We all have our moments of distraction on the road. Add to that, heightened tension due to weather conditions (even if said conditions don’t happen to be a factor at the time, but we’re giving the benefit of the doubt here), and the forces of human nature, mixed with Mother Nature, sometimes create catastrophic results.

Where am I going with this tangent, you ask? Just a preface to my recent run-in with a fellow motorist, is all. Well, his runin with me, to be exact. At a red light. Behind a line of about 12 other vehicles. Clearly stopped.

Not moving. No ice, no slush, no nothing on the road. Getting the picture?

So, obviously, you can imagine my astonishment upon glancing in my rearview mirror – as I habitually do when on the roads

– to see headlights approaching at what seemed too fast for an appropriate slowdown and stop maneuver. Sure enough, there it was, the impact, the sound of car metal crunching and cracking, along with the squeal of brakes.

Lovely. Just lovely.

Luckily, another one of my driving habits is to leave a bit of room between the front of my car and the one in front of mine, saving me the added inconvenience of continuing the potential chain reaction of collisions. One minor crisis averted.

All of this, mind you, and the light had yet to change to green.

No sooner did I get my bearings, than the driver – a young, college-aged male with a knit hat – appeared at my driver’s side window to apologize profusely and ask if I was alright. I rolled down my window, clearly angry, and said, “Yeah, I’m fine, but my car sure isn’t.” He continued to apologize and suggested we

pull out of the line of traffic and into the parking lot of an office building right alongside the road.

Great idea.

As I pulled off to the shoulder and continued into the agreedupon lot, the light changed.

Wanting to be sure I was out of the entryway (and further harm’s way), I found a spot off to the side and waited. And waited. I watched the continuous stream of traffic drive by, with no sign of the guilty party. Gone. Took off. You must be kidding.

Hence the tangent. And the anger. And the feeling that, in spite of the fact that “accidents happen” from time to time and none of us is perfect, there is no excuse for not owning up to your actions after the fact. That’s just bad karma. So, to the other driver, I hope you can live with your decision to run from your mistake. May you never have the misfortune for someone to do precisely the same thing to you.

First year Connetquot H.S. boy’s basketball coach Kyle Black was looking forward to the rematch with league rival Walt Whitman H.S. on Tuesday, January 27th, but the Blizzard of 2015 forced the game to be rescheduled.

The game was played on Saturday, January 31st to a eager crowd, hoping for an excited performance by the Connetquot Thunderbirds!

While the players, coaches and fans did get to see an exciting game, it was the Whitman

‘Wildcats’ that came away with a 50-47 victory. In a contest that saw a dozen lead changes throughout the game, the final score would be determined by two free throws with 3 seconds left by Whitman’s Jordan Aiken. Despite a last second three point attempt

by Connetquot, the final score was to Whitman’s advantage.

Both teams are still in the running for a playoff spot, but need to win the rest of the remaining league contests.

The

THE DENTAL PLAN FOR EVERYONE!

T-birds played hard, rebounded strong and played aggressive defense, but Whitman made the free throws down the stretch. Shane Wilson led the home team with 13 points, followed by John Hengge and Dan Lewis with 9.

Connetquot has two remaining home games, against Lindenhurst on February 4th and Half Hollow East on February 6th.

Once Upon A Mattress Comical characters descended upon a stage set for medieval times as Bayport-Blue Point High School students performed the musical Once Upon A Mattress.

The play retold the popular Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale “The Princess and the Pea.” Under the law, no one shall marry until Queen

Aggravain’s son, Prince Dauntless, marries.

However, every petitioning princess is dismissed after failing an unfair test set by the Queen. That is, until Sir Harry travels to the swamps and brings back Princess Winnifred for Prince Dauntless. Not quite up to the queen’s standards, she immediately begins to plot to rid their

lives of the new candidate with the assistance of her wizard sidekick.

The students entertained audiences of all ages during their three-night run in early February, including area senior citizens who were invited to a complimentary performance before opening weekend.

Scoring A Bright Future Bayport-Blue Point High School senior Nicole Copping has signed a Letter of Intent to attend and compete on the Manhattan College soccer team this fall.

The aspiring special

education major, plays forward for the BBP Phantoms and competes on the ISA travel soccer program. She is a four time All-County, two-time All-State and two-time Newsday All-Long Island

soccer player.

Off the field Nicole is not only dedicated to her academics but also to volunteering within the school and local community.

Valentine’s Day

Send Us Your Best Pics To Be Featured!

By: Alexandra H. Rodrigues, Massapequa At our very first Love, To think about anything else is tough.

Chocolate hearts, roses and more than one kiss Ensures that Valentine’s Day is nothing but bliss.

The next time this Love day comes around, Promises to spend life together are given abound.

Everlasting love for each other, we swear To please each other, we take care.

Life goes on with its sorrow and joy; Valentine’s Day special love again we deploy.

There can be times when it is hard not to stray; To mend our commitment, we use this day.

Love is an emotion that cannot be forced; Kindness is needed to have it endorsed.

Valentine was the name for many a saint Who eagerly a picture of Love did paint.

Those who nourished their love till their golden time Have truly received a present divine.

Winter Snows By: Milicent G.Tycko The flakes of snow Stream down, woefully obliging Gravity and fall over lost Reservoirs of love, forming shadowy Oases of snow dunes.

When the waters of my sorrow meet This cold indifferent wall, There is no other way.

My arctic tears are whipped to whitest snow That drifts and blows about the countryside.

The winter snows remind me now Of poetry, of poems transformed From feelings, sorrows, losses.

They sweep across and mass as one.

The snowflakes and the sorrow, The shadows and the cold, The fresh and gleaming dune of white, As wondrous as a poem.

I am living a new chapter in my LifeStory “I had a great career at Talbots and I

traveled widely for the better part of 17 years opening new stores. I’ve always been on-the-go and my independence is very important to me. That’s why I

chose The Bristal as my home. I live

here with my cherished Madeline the happy. She adapted as well as I have and she’s a tough customer. I also

enjoy the freedom to go out and pursue my interests at Hofstra and be with my

Pat, Resident of The Bristal

friends in the area as I always have. I have everything I need to be happy.”

Bringing History To Life The third grade students at Holy Angels Regional School in Patchogue completed their social studies unit on Native Americans with a hands-on presentation from Tipi Ted of the Traveling Wilderness Museum.

The Native American

unit came to life as Tipi Ted worked with the students to recreate a longhouse, grind corn, make wampum necklaces, and observe various Native American tools and artifacts. The children, draped in deer skins, gained a better understanding of the way

in which Native Americans used animal skins for warmth.

The highly motivating lesson about Native Americans was a celebration of learning that the students will remember for years to come!

Open Your Heart & Home she was her first summer to see cows and horses, or finally being able to gaze up at the stars, because she said the glare of city lights doesn’t allow her to see them. It’s definitely the little things that mean the most,” says Meg, a Fresh Air host.

Fresh Air children are boys and girls, from six to 18 years old, who live in New York City. Children on first-time visits are six to 12 years old and stay for one or two weeks. Children who are reinvited by host families may continue with The Fresh Air Fund through age 18 and can enjoy extended trips.

Families find hosting so rewarding that more than

65 percent of all Fresh Air children are invited to visit the same host families year after year. Through the eyes of Fresh Air children, families often rediscover the beauty of their own communities.

The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, not-for-profit agency, has provided free summer experiences to more than 1.8 million New York City children from low-income communities since 1877. For more information on hosting a Fresh Air child this summer, please contact Pamela Desmond at 631.786.1915 or visit The Fresh Air Fund online at www.freshair.org.

From February 9th through February 20th, two of New York City’s favorite casual restaurants, Café Metro and Fresh & Co., will donate a percentage of their sales to Friends of Karen, a tri-state organization that provides emotional, financial and advocacy support for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families living in the New York tri-state area. The organization has helped more than 13,500 children since its founding in 1978.

Diversity among blood donors is important because red blood cells carry markers that determine one’s blood type, and certain blood types are unique to specific racial and ethnic groups. Blood must be matched very closely for those patients with rare blood types or for those who need repeated transfusions.

Blood Donations Needed The American Red Cross encourages eligible donors to help ensure a sufficient and diverse blood supply by giving blood this February.

Since the beginning of the year, widespread flu and inclement winter weather in some parts of the country have prevented many regular donors from making or keeping their blood donation appointments. Healthy and diverse blood donors are needed to help maintain a sufficient blood supply.
