Fixed Rate CD offer available in AL, AZ, CT, DC, DE, FL, GA, MD, NJ, NM, NV, NY, PA, SC and VA. Portfolio by Wells Fargo® customers are eligible to receive an additional interest rate bonus on these accounts.3 1. To qualify for this offer, you must have a new or existing Platinum Savings account and enroll the account in this offer between 01/21/2019 and 03/22/2019. This offer is subject to change at any time, without notice. This offer is available only to Platinum Savings customers in the following states: CT, DC, DE, FL, GA, MD, NJ, NY, SC and VA. In order to earn the Special Interest Rate of 2.08% (Special Rate), you must deposit $25,000 in new money (from sources outside of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., or its affiliates) to the enrolled savings account and maintain a minimum daily account balance of $25,000 throughout the term of this offer. The corresponding Annual Percentage Yield (APY) for this offer is 2.10%. The Special Rate will be applied to the enrolled savings account for a period of 12 months, starting on the date the account is enrolled in the offer. However, for any day during that 12 month period that the daily account balance is less than the $25,000 minimum, the Special Rate will not apply and the interest rate will revert to the standard interest rate applicable to your Platinum Savings account. As of 12/10/2018, the standard interest rate and APY for a Platinum Savings account in CT, DC, DE, FL, GA, MD, NJ, NY, SC and VA with an account balance of $0.01 to $99,999.99 is 0.03% (0.03% APY) and with an account balance of $100,000 and above is 0.05% (0.05% APY). Each tier shown reflects the current minimum daily collected balance required to obtain the applicable APY. Interest is compounded daily and paid monthly. The amount of interest earned is based on the daily collected balances in the account. Upon the expiration of the 12 month promotional period, standard interest rates apply. Minimum to open a Platinum Savings account is $25. A monthly service fee of $12 applies in any month the account falls below a $3,500 minimum daily balance. Fees may reduce earnings. Interest rates are variable and subject to change without notice. Wells Fargo may limit the amount you deposit to a Platinum Savings account to an aggregate of $1 million. Offer not available to Private Banking, Wealth, Business Banking or Wholesale customers. 2. Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is effective for accounts opened between 01/21/2019 and 03/22/2019. The 11-month New Dollar CD special requires a minimum of $25,000 brought to Wells Fargo from sources outside of Wells Fargo Bank N.A., or its affiliates to earn the advertised APY. Public Funds and Wholesale accounts are not eligible for this offer. APY assumes interest remains on deposit until maturity. Interest is compounded daily. Payment of interest on CDs is based on term: For terms less than 12 months (365 days), interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or at maturity (the end of the term). For terms of 12 months or more, interest may be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. A fee for early withdrawal will be imposed and could reduce earnings on this account. Special Rates are applicable to the initial term of the CD only. At maturity, the Special Rate CD will automatically renew for a term of 6 months, at the interest rate and APY in effect for CDs on renewal date not subject to a Special Rate, unless the Bank has notified you otherwise. Due to the new money requirement, accounts may only be opened at your local branch. Wells Fargo reserves the right to modify or discontinue the offer at any time without notice. Offer cannot be combined with any other consumer deposit offer. Minimum new money deposit requirement of at least $25,000 is for this offer only and cannot be transferred to another account to qualify for any other consumer deposit offer. If you wish to take advantage of another consumer deposit offer requiring a minimum new money deposit, you will be required to do so with another new money deposit as stated in the offer requirements and qualifications. Offer cannot be reproduced, purchased, sold, transferred, or traded. 3. The Portfolio by Wells Fargo program has a $30 monthly service fee, which can be avoided when you have one of the following qualifying balances: $25,000 or more in qualifying linked bank deposit accounts (checking, savings, CDs, FDIC-insured IRAs) or $50,000 or more in any combination of qualifying linked banking, brokerage (available through Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC) and credit balances (including 10% of mortgage balances, certain mortgages not eligible). If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the bonus interest rate on all eligible savings accounts, and discounts or fee waivers on other products and services, will discontinue and revert to the Bank’s then-current applicable rate or fee. For bonus interest rates on time accounts, this change will occur upon renewal. If the Portfolio by Wells Fargo relationship is terminated, the remaining unlinked Wells Fargo Portfolio Checking or Wells Fargo Prime Checking account will be converted to another checking product or closed. © 2019 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone announced that Suffolk County is undertaking a Cybersecurity Project to determine any existing vulnerabilities to cyber-attacks, as well as what recommendations should be implemented to protect its physical and digital infrastructure.

The County, through the RFP process, selected RedLand Strategies to help lead a thorough assessment of its current network with the assistance of Palo Alto Networks.

The Project will focus on three public safety departments that include the Suffolk County Police Department, Suffolk County Fire, Rescue, and Emergency Services, and the Suffolk County Department of Information Technology.

The cost of the project totals $55,000, which is being funded as part of a federal grant from the New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services, under the State Homeland Security Program.

After spending an entire unit studying the lives of penguins, first-grade students from Academy Street Elementary School invited their family members to the school to celebrate their annual “Black and White Day” event.

The students were excited to show their special

guests what they had learned about the highly interesting birds, as they showcased the numerous art projects and activity sheets they completed while working on the unit.

The students classified the many different species of penguin, and even wrote a fact sheet devoted to the penguin of their choosing,

naming their habitats, predators and some additional fun facts.

Additionally, the students created penguin shaped hats which were worn during the special day, and placed all of their penguin-related research in special folders titled “All About Penguins.”

A Night of Fun with Family Nearly 80 members of the Woodhull Elementary School community recently came together for a Family Fun Night.

Organized and lead by

physical education teacher Anna Bainbridge, the event called for students and family members to participate together in various relay races.

a highly informative PowerPoint presentation for the attendees, including stress-reducing information, breathing and meditation tactics. The students and their families enjoyed taking part in the abdominal breathing tactics suggested, as they were employed in an effort to promote courage, inner strength and balance to their daily lives.

Dr. Witt also asked that the families take part in a daily activity in which they write down one thing that

they are grateful for, and place these items in a jar to be opened at the end of the year.

Prior to the conclusion of the event, attendees were provided with a helpful list of resources and web applications which could be utilized to assist in furthering mindful techniques and practices.

The district would like to thank the SocialEmotional Task Force for making this event a possibility for all to enjoy.

Stop Roof Streaks (NAPSI)—If you ever see black or other colored streaks on your roof, your problem is more than looks-but it can be resolved.

What It Is Those streaks come from vegetation eating the mineral content of your shingles.

your roof dramatically.

What To Do Fortunately, there are inexpensive, easy-to-apply cleaners that can remove this unwanted vegetation.

They come in concentrate and are diluted to the desired strength. The diluted solution is placed in a garden-type sprayer and applied to the roof, and in a half hour or less you rinse it off and the stains

are gone. These cleaners contain no chlorine bleach.

There’s no threat to your perimeter plantings. Two of the more popular such cleaners are Shingle Shield and Stainhandler.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day

(NAPSI)—Allergies are nothing to sneeze at but you can make your home more comfortable for people who have allergies and improve your indoor air quality—by cleaning in an often forgotten place.

Indoor air quality can be a big concern for many families. After all, in a typical six-room home, up to 40 pounds of dust— including dangerous chemicals and other pollutants—is created annually through everyday living. These contaminants are pulled into the HVAC system and recirculated as much as seven times a day. Over time, this leads to built-up contaminants in the ductwork. Since your heating and cooling system is the lungs of your home, you want to keep it clear.

Successful Performance Benefit “Step Into Christmas” Benefit by local dancers raised $5,000 to help families of children with congenital heart defects This past December the Dance Connection Performance Team and Dance Connection Theatrical Productions held a benefit performance at the CM Performing Arts Center in Oakdale to raise money for Gavin’s Got Heart - a local charity

assisting families of infants and children diagnosed with congenital heart defects.

The original production raised $5,000 for the charity, which was used to provide 24 hour in-home nursing care for a family that allowed them to bring their baby home from the hospital.

“Our studio is always looking for ways to use our passion for dance and performance to give

back to our community.

Gavin’s Got Heart is an organization that provides an amazing service to local families in need, and we are so proud to have helped provide assistance in achieving their goals”, Mary Naftal, Artistic Director.

Catching Up with Oscar & Emmy Winning Actress Regina King

By Allison Kugel

With an acting career spanning four decades and multiple awards, Regina King has effortlessly embodied countless memorable characters across the big and small screens.

From thought provoking films like Boyz n the Hood, Poetic Justice, Jerry Maguire and Ray; to lighter fare like the Legally Blonde and Miss Congeniality franchises, Regina King brings a sparkle to every role she’s tackled. On the small screen, King’s presence in past television series like Southland, The Boondocks, The Leftovers, Shameless, and her Emmy-winning turn in American Crime, have highlighted some of the more significant social issues of our time. Wherever art is imitating life in a significant way, Regina King has been tapped to play a pivotal role in the project.

On February 24th, King took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her stand-out role in the critically acclaimed film, If Beale Street Could Talk, now playing in theaters. Prior to the Academy Awards, Regina King and I discussed her Emmy-winning role as Latrice Butler, the grieving mother of a teenage son who is the victim of a death by auto hit and run perpetrated by a group of Jersey City police officers.

Regina King: I was drawn to the role of [prosecutor] KJ Harper (played

by Clare-Hope Ashitey), and [series creator] Veena Sud was sure that she wanted me for the role of Latrice. I liked the pilot script and decided to take that dive into the emotional pool.

Allison Kugel: You play the mother

Regina King: Being a mother myself, and the mother of a black young man, there are certain fears you have that are unique to having a black child in America. You have fears as a parent when your kids are growing up, because you can’t control everything.

But there are those experiences that are specific to black children that are not the same for others. You experience a bit of it, yourself, as a child growing up in America. You then carry that perspective with you throughout your life. So, I had that going into this role. I also spoke to a mother whose son was murdered by a police officer. Hearing her pain up close and personal, and her feeling safe enough to share it with me, I would say that combination was how Latrice was birthed.

Allison Kugel: Is the story a fictional account or based on true events?

Regina King: It was based on the truth as far as the regard for black American kids and the law, and how they are regarded in America. That part of it is true, of course. So many examples have had similar outcomes to this story, but it was not taken from one specific person’s story.

Allison Kugel: Do you think a series like Seven Seconds has the power to impact hearts and minds for societal change?

Regina King: I think [so]. What’s reflective for me is not reflective for you. Seeing it in a television show or in a movie creates an opportunity for each of us to see the other’s perspective. I feel that the series American Crime (the ABC series for which King won an Emmy) was very similar in that way.

Allison Kugel: Do you take a role like this home with you?

Regina King: I tried not to take it home with me. But again, a bit of this lives with you. It is the narrative of a part of the fabric of what America is.

It took a lot out of me; I’ll be honest. It was the closest to an experiential role I’ve ever had. I’ve known people who have been victims of police brutality, but no one who was closer than a friend or a distant family member.

Because it was a friend or a distant family member, I wasn’t with them in their day-to-day struggle of what that experience brings. You go through life hoping that you never personally have an experience like that, but you know that the odds are greater than

not that you will, because of who you are.

Allison Kugel: Let’s talk about your 2nd Emmy win for the Netflix limited series, Seven Seconds. In recent years, you are winning awards left and right? How does each time feel?

Regina King: All three times being nominated felt different. But there is nothing like the first anything, right?

It’s totally surreal. The second time is kind of like, “Nah-uh, really?! How did I find a hundred-dollar bill again in the exact same place?!” It’s one of those feelings. Not to be frivolous about it, but it’s like, what are the odds?

Allison Kugel: What do you see as your higher purpose in all that you do, from parenting your son to your work. And what spiritual philosophy do you subscribe to?

Regina King: Overall, just trying to walk in my truth. I recently did a panel talk (Entertainment Weekly’s Women Who Kick Ass Comic Con Panel) and [actress] Chloe Bennet said something that I definitely subscribe to. She said, “At this moment in time, I can feel a certain way and say a certain thing, and then in 2022 I might contradict that, just because I’m in a different place at that point.”

For me, I can only be in my truth right now, in this moment. If I am walking in that truth, if I share an opinion right now about something, in the year 2022 I will not say, “I didn’t say that back then.” I would know I said it, because in that moment it was true for me.

Allison Kugel: Right. You would say, that was me then. I saw this beautiful tribute on your Instagram feed to actress Marla Gibbs.

Marla gave you your first big job playing her daughter on the show 227 in the 1980s, when you were fourteen years old. You thanked her for all that she did for you as your mentor. You say, among many other things, “She taught me how to be a professional.” I want to ask you about some other influential people you’ve worked with over the years, and what your takeaway was from working with these people.

Let’s start with Tupac Shakur, who you worked with in 1993’s Poetic Justice.

Regina King: I would say he’s a man that walked in his truth. Man, did he ever! That would be the biggest takeaway, in that he was just unapologetic, and it was beautiful.

Allison Kugel: And working with Tom Cruise in 1996’s Jerry Maguire?

Regina King: An example of a consummate professional. If you hear anybody say that they don’t like that guy, hmmm, I don’t know. I’d have to go back and look in the books on that person. He’s a good guy, and he is a professional. He is that same example of what Marla [Gibbs] was, and I saw from him that it exists when you’re on that mega level.

Allison Kugel: And working with Jamie Foxx in 2004’s Ray? Regina King: Jamie is super talented.

The first thing that came to my mind when you said “Jamie,” is that he’s a caring guy. He takes great care with things that he does, and with the people that he works with. That’s the reason why he’s so good at embodying a character, because he takes care with the details.

Allison Kugel: I also came across a picture you posted with your son.

You were waiting in line together to vote in the June 2018 primaries, and it was his first time voting.

Finish this sentence for me: “I hope that in my son’s lifetime…”

Regina King: The first thing that came to my mind is that he wants to have children, but he goes back and forth between asking if it’s irresponsible to bring children into this world or not.

And I see where he is coming from with that.

Allison Kugel: Tell him that you have great faith in the next generation to lift the consciousness of this planet.

Regina King: Oh, I tell him that all the time, that I have great faith in him and his generation. Literally, from year to year with the conversations that we have, it goes from, “When I have kids,” to, “Man, I don’t know if I want to bring a kid into all this.” Just because of certain things that happen in the world. It’s the same reason you

don’t want to turn on the news half the time.

Allison Kugel: If there’s one thing the kids from Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida showed me, it’s that with the younger generations coming up, there is a different level of consciousness, and it gives me great hope.

Regina King: What I love is that they’re able to articulate their passion in a way that is open. Whereas, I feel like a lot of our generation, we weren’t able to articulate our anger as effectively. There is a maturity present with the younger generation, but they still have that passion. It makes me more confident in what they can accomplish.

The Charity of the Month for March is: Birthday Wishes!

It’s not every day that you come across a group of people who are so selfless and who work tirelessly to give others the opportunity to have something that isn’t even a necessity. I happened to come across passionate and compassionate people like this and knew I had to feature what they do!

SUFFOLK ZONE 4 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 6, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Birthday Wishes is an organization whose mission is to provide birthday parties to children experiencing homelessness.

They improve and empower the lives of homeless children and their families by providing joy, play and hope through the magic of a birthday party.

program is their On-Site Party Program, which provides monthly parties at the shelters they serve and this celebrates all children with birthdays in that month. The second program is their Birthday-in-a-Box Program, which provides a party packed into a birthday box, which is delivered to families in domestic violence and scattered sites.

In 2018, Birthday Wishes of Long Island served 669 girls and 619 boys with more than 6,500 homemade cupcakes, more than 6,000 goody bags, 1,200 craft and activity kits, 7,728 gifts wrapped and delivered and more than 1,100 Birthday-ina-Box Kits built by volunteers.

Most people are so fortunate that they don’t even think twice about celebrating their birthday with gifts and a birthday cake; they just assume that will happen every birthday! But for some families, a birthday party is a luxury that they simply cannot afford. On their birthday, some children may not expect any gifts and cannot imagine their name on a birthday cake with brightly lit colorful candles just for them. This is where Birthday Wishes steps in!

All of their birthday parties are run by carefully trained and backgroundchecked volunteers, who participate as individuals, families and groups. Their grassroots philosophy fosters the spirit of volunteerism and community service in adults, children and families, who donate their time and resources! Birthday Wishes is the first organization in the entire nation, and the only one on Long Island, to provide this invaluable service.

Birthday Wishes began in Massachusetts and after the first national news story released featuring Birthday Wishes, a social worker from Long Island was so inspired that she contact the co-founder to bring the joy of a birthday party to the homeless community here on Long Island.

Birthday Wishes of Long Island began having parties in one shelter, and today they work with 80 shelters/transitional housing programs in Nassau and Suffolk counties. Each month they give more than 120 children a birthday celebration!

A great way to support Birthday Wishes is to attend or sponsor their 2nd annual Food, Wine, & Wishes Event on March 20th at Appliance World of Huntington. This is a fun evening of chef tastings from top Long Island restaurants, as well as terrific silent auctions and over 75 raffles. To purchase tickets, please visit www.LongIsland.BirthdayWishes.org/ Food-Wine-Wishes. Tickets are $60.00 per person and sponsorship opportunities are available. Feel free to call their office at (516) 390-3505 for additional information.

Each birthday child receives supplies to have a party with all the children that live in the shelter, such as juice boxes, cake or cupcakes, candles, decorations, paper good and yes, a wonderful bag of presents to open! Birthday Wishes serves children ages 1-19.

This organization provides birthday parties through two programs. One

Living Well

Spreading the Love In recognition of P.S. I Love You Day, the Bayport-Blue Point High School was recently filled with positive messages, uplifting attitudes and, most importantly, the color purple.

Throughout the course of the day, staff and students alike donned their purple attire in honor of the nationwide event, signifying the strong sense of inclusion and love that the day represents. Along the hallways, lockers were adorned with uplifting messages taped to their surface, reminding students that “You Are Loved” and “You Matter.”

Additionally, a bagel breakfast and purple “P.S. I Love You” bracelets were available for purchase, with the proceeds going toward a scholarship fund and suicide prevention foundations.

According to their website, the mission of P.S. I Love You, Inc., is

to spread love in order to decrease bullying and promote mental health awareness. They strongly believe that by educating students earlier about

mental health, this difficult conversation will be easier to discuss.

The district would like to thank science department Chairperson Nikki Restivo

for her assistance in making this day a huge success which could be shared by all involved.

Why Does This Keep Happening?

“Why does this keep happening to me?,” you may ask yourself after the umpteenth romantic relationship gone bad, continual financial difficulty, ongoing health issues or an ongoing addiction. You look at other people’s circumstances, and lament your own unfortunate patterns.

As hard as this is to hear (although, it may be a relief), those pesky repetitive patterns are part of your soul’s contract that you voluntarily constructed before you arrived here. That mystery of mysteries, “Why is this so easy for her, and so difficult for me?” Or, “Why do I have to battle this illness? Why me?” It’s not random. These are the things you came into this life to work on and master. When you acknowledge that truth and make the connection, you can then begin to view these life challenges as just that, an interesting challenge that needs to be tackled head on so that you can move past it and not have to repeat it.

There is an age-old debate about destiny versus free will. The truth is, both exist harmoniously

and synergistically. Here is a good analogy to help it make sense: the hand of cards you are dealt is your contract, otherwise known as your “destiny.” The way you play that hand is your free will.

There are signposts along the highway to guide you, but ultimately free will reigns supreme. This means that once we incarnate into human form and we are up against worldly emotions, ego and myriad distractions; people, places and circumstances will present themselves to give you the opportunity to master the lesson, but the choice is yours to make.

Here is an example: A person charts into their contract to live a life of material privilege, and then in midlife they lose nearly all of their material possessions and must rebuild from scratch. They can either choose to transcend their ego, take personal inventory and put one foot in front of the other to rebuild in a positive and constructive way while realigning their values; or they can fall into a permanent pit of despair, or perhaps, choose to turn to illegal activities to rebuild their wealth.

Another person may chart an addiction into their contract with the soul’s intention of overcoming the addition and going on to help others who are struggling with addiction. Or, they can choose to give in to that addiction and live a life of self-harm and selfindulgence, and ultimately see their life and health deteriorate.

Upon their life review once they have crossed back into spirit, they will either review a life with much soul growth, or realize they didn’t make the progress they had intended, and they will want to return at some point and try again.

When faced with life’s hardships, understand the work that must be done to overcome and transcend that particular piece of karma that your soul has chosen to come here to work on. There are many resources provided for us in the form of signs and synchronicities, spiritual guidance, knowledge, and people to help guide you on your journey. And you wouldn’t have chosen this path if your soul didn’t know it was up for the challenge.
