Eyestrain affects people from all walks of life. Many professionals suffer eyestrain as a result of too many hours spent staring at computer screens. The same can be said for children, who might spend hours doing homework on their computers before hitting the couch for a few spirited rounds of video games.

An Afternoon with Billy By: Jamie Lynn Ryan In all the hype over our dear Buddy the Betta’s first birthday last week, another momentous occasion got lost in the shuffle – my opportunity to attend an intimate Q&A with Billy Joel at my alma mater, C.W. Post.

It was designed to give the students of the Long Island High School for the Arts an opportunity to learn from the master, one who happened to make a rather sizable donation to their school in an effort to keep it up and running for the next generation of promising performing artists.

Of course, officially, I was “covering” this event in my capacity as a journalist; however, the opportunity

to be a part of such a small audience in front of one of my idols had its own unique appeal on a personal level – at the very institution where I obtained my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree over a decade ago. While not a full-fledged concert by any means, there was “a little music” to go along with the anecdotes, making for an afternoon of memories to last a lifetime.

In the weeks since, I had occasion to peruse my college portfolio, where I came across an essay I had written on the hopes and aspirations I had for my career. “Countdown to Commencement,” it was called, covering everything from grad school to loans to the job search to that endless search for fulfillment.

As much as anyone thinks he/she has life all mapped out, it is nearly impossible to rely on a set blueprint.

Because, every now and then, life itself beckons, with all its unanticipated twists and turns.

Such was my sentiment in the Spring of 2004, and so it remains. If you had told me 12 years ago that I would be back in the Tilles Center theatre, as an editor and columnist, mere feet away from the likes of Billy Joel… well that would have fallen under the “unanticipated” category for sure. I can only imagine the thrill it was for those high school students, those with the world at their feet, endless opportunities stretched before them.

Oh, to have that feeling once again…

ST. PATRICK’S DAY SALES EVENT!

Parents may be unaware of the dental health timeline, or they could be reluctant to bring their children for fear of how their kids will behave - especially if parents are harboring their own apprehensions about the dentist.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that a child go to the dentist by age 1, or within six months of the eruption of his or her first tooth.

Parents worried about how their kids will respond to the dentist can take the following steps to acclimate kids to dental visits to make them more comfortable during their appointments now and down the road: Be a positive role model. Children frequently learn by example. If they see their parents being diligent about dental care, they’re more likely to embrace proper oral hygiene. Bring children to your own dental appointments so they understand the process and become familiar with the type of equipment used.

Routine dental examinations and cleanings are an important component of oral healthcare for both children and adults. However, many children do not visit the dentist until well after the time recommended by medical and dental professionals.

Stick to the first-tooth milestone. Take your child to the dentist on or about when his or her first tooth erupts. Early dental visits will get kids used to going to the dentist and prevent minor problems that may lead to more complex

Be supportive and instill trust. Avoid telling your child that everything will be okay. If a procedure is needed, this could affect his or her trust in you and make the dental office an even greater source of anxiety. Simply be supportive and offer a hand to squeeze or a hug if your child needs you.

Consider using your dentist. Some parents like to take their children to a pediatric dentist, but it may not always be necessary. Many family practices cater to patients of all ages, and the familiarity of the office may help make children feel more comfortable. Speak with your dentist about the ages they see.

Steer clear of negative words. Michael J. Hanna, DMD, a national spokesperson for the AAPD, suggests using positive phrases like “clean, strong, healthy teeth” to make the visit seem fun and positive rather than scary and alarming. Let the office staff come up with their own words to describe processes that won’t seem too frightening.

By employing these techniques, kids’ dental visits can be more pleasant for all involved, paving the way for a lifetime of healthy teeth.

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.”

Benefits to Establishing Advanced Healthcare Directives spell out whether you want to remain in a hospital or receive palliative care at home for a terminal illness. A living will can be changed if/when your wishes or circumstances change.

Legal and Medical Advice Although legal advice is not required for an advanced directive, it can be helpful to iron out the legalities of your directives.

Speak with your doctor about your desires and needs. A physician can help you form a coherent directive that is in line with your wishes. Remember, an advanced directive is not reserved for the elderly.w

Model UN More than 180 Long Island high school students, representing 9 different high schools, recently attended a Model United Nations (U.N.) Conference hosted by Connetquot Central School District’s Connetquot High School. This is the largest Model U.N. Conference Connetquot High School has ever hosted.

Student-delegates were divided into seven committees modeled after actual U.N. committees

such as, the UN General Assembly, UN Security Council, United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), World Health Organization (WHO), UN Human Rights Council and the Arab League.

Each committee debated current issues, drafted resolutions, plotted strategy, negotiated with supporters and adversaries as well as engaged in public speaking exercises during moderated and

unmoderated caucuses.

As preparation, students researched current global issues and resolutions, which they discussed and formulated political positions during the daylong event.

The goal of the “Model UN” program is to provide students with a better understanding of the inner working of the UN and to foster skills in diplomacy and compromise.

Healthy Habits to Combat Stress

Few adults can imagine a life that does not include financial- or work-related stress. But there are ways to combat stress that can benefit people’s longterm health and improve their presentday quality of life.

Stress has an immediate and potentially long-term effect on the human body. Though it’s a natural response to both good and bad experiences, stress, when chronic, can produce a host of negative consequences that greatly diminish one’s quality of life.

Combatting stress can sometimes be difficult, as the causes of stress are never too far away for many adults. In its 2015 “Stress in AmericaTM: Paying With Our Health” survey, the American Psychological Association found that money is the top cause of stress for Americans. The survey was conducted on behalf of the APA by Harris Poll, which

Those are considerable benefits to people dealing with elevated levels of stress, which can contribute to both physical and mental fatigue and negatively impact one’s ability to concentrate. Studies also have shown that regular exercise can decrease tension, which tends to increase as stress levels rise, and elevate and help to stabilize mood, which often decreases as stress levels increase.

Don’t lean on alcohol after stressful days. Many people respond to stressful days by consuming alcohol. While alcohol helps some people forget a stressful day, it also produces psychological and physiological side effects that can compound the effects of the very stress drinkers are looking to relieve.

Chinese Culture As a culmination to their multi-week study on China, Academy Street Elementary School thirdgrade students celebrated their newfound knowledge during a weeklong Chinese New Year event.

During the study, students learned about

the Chinese culture and country through photographs and written words, including its capital region and how red is the color of good luck. During the celebration, students fashioned paper lanterns, dragon figures and learned to write several Chinese

characters on paper scrolls.

They also got a taste for the region by sampling some well-known Chinese dishes and attended an in-school field trip called Go China with presenter Patricia Shih.

Traveling the World Sylvan Avenue Elementary School thirdgrade enrichment classes traveled around the world during a recent research project on Europe.

Using various electronic resources, students learned about such locations as Ireland, Spain and Sweden before creating postcards

depicting themselves in some of the country’s famous landmarks. Using computer software, students pasted a picture of themselves standing in front of such places as France’s Eifel Tower.

After completing the visual projects, the classes then compared and

contracted the country’s cultures and made inferences about how they compared to their families own. They shared their completed research with the building’s younger students and even mailed their postcards home to their family members.

Signing On Bayport-Blue Point High School seniors Victor Garifo, Alex Wertz and Dylan Ingber have committed to continue their athletic journeys on the collegiate level next fall.

The three recently put

pen to paper to commit to three premier postsecondary institutions.

Victor will be competing on the Stony Brook University Cross Country team, Alex will join Slippery Rock University’s soccer team and Dylan will become a

part of the football team at Southern Connecticut State University.

The Phantoms were congratulated by district officials, family and friends during a special ceremony at the school.

Mentor Recognized Connetquot Central School District’s Justin Paura, a senior on Connetquot High School’s basketball team, spends his time working with elementary school students when he’s not practicing on the court.

Last month, Paura spent an afternoon at Edward J. Bosi Elementary School mentoring fifth graders

as part of the “Athletes Helping Athletes” club.

The club allows high school athletes to talk to elementary school students about what to expect in middle and high school. Later that night, Paura scored 15 points in his game against Northport High School.

Connetquot Central School District partnered

with Molloy College to participate in “Athletes Helping Athletes,” making it the largest chapter of the club in Nassau and Suffolk County with 60 dedicated students taking the pledge to stay away from drugs and alcohol and sharing their experiences with the younger students.
