The magic lasts for just so long The music plays until the end of the song In the snap of your fingers, it can all be gone And silence continues throughout the storm

Hilde the millipede, Gertrude the box turtle, Ludwig the ball python and Dusty the chinchilla were the subjects of an important lesson on the basics of biodiversity at Brookhaven Elementary School in the South Country Central School District.

During a visit with New York Department of Environmental Conservation educator David Pomerand, the firstgrade students learned the importance of protecting the environment through discussion of animal habitats and behavior. They discussed

A Flashing Of Light

Learning About Biodiversity the characteristics of invertebrates, reptiles and mammals and how their animal guests resembled and differed from one another. The students even had an opportunity to pet the animals.

The memories dim as I turn the lights low And everything stops... was it a second ago?

That we danced through the night And we let our hearts go The darkness seeps in, as I feel betrayed And out the window flies, the promises we made Would it have killed you, if you had stayed The only hope I have, is that my memories fade Love? It’s a moment; a flashing of light That turns inside out like daytime to night Did I love you? I did Does that make things all right?

For the magic has left me, the music, it died And I don’t remember a night I haven’t cried God only knows, it’s not that I didn’t try But I don’t know how to let go, to say goodbye

Share Your Truth So Others Can Share Theirs “You have been assigned this mountain so that you can show others it can be moved.” - Mel Robbins Some of you may have read a recent article that ran in South Bay’s Neighbor titled, My Journey with Anxiety, written by yours truly. The article was an essay that featured an excerpt of my book, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a Life Unhinged and on the Record.

In the article, I chronicle a time in my life, during the summer of 2012, when I suffered from especially severe bouts of anxiety and panic attacks. Since touring with my book, doing press and speaking engagements, I transformed into an advocate for mental health as I learned some of the statistics surrounding anxiety disorders.

For example, I was shocked to learn that 40 million Americans have experienced (or will experience) some form of anxiety disorder in their lifetime. My initial shock at that statistic was largely due to the fact that for so many years I had felt alone with

this disorder, and I carried some degree of shame. After my book was released, I became fearless about sharing my experiences with anxiety and panic. Once I put my story out into the world, the shame and embarrassment seemed to dissolve as if by magic.

I eventually healed from that acute bout of anxiety through a series of shifts I made in my life, including: talk therapy, spiritual studies, writing, speaking, dietary changes, and so forth. We all need to be physically, emotionally and spiritually fortified in order to become and stay healthy. That includes our mental health.

As I revealed my truth to friends, acquaintances, family members and countless strangers, the most amazing thing happened. People began to direct message me on social media, call or email me to thank me for sharing my story.

They also confessed their own experience with anxiety, phobias, depression and panic attacks. It made me glad to know that my book and my story helped people, but I never could have imagined that people I thought I knew

were telling me these stories. You really never know what someone is going through in their inner world.

After my article, My Journey with Anxiety ran in South Bay’s Neighbor (for some of you, it may be in this issue you are holding in your hands) one by one, a few co-workers came over to my desk, and as if to say, “This is just between you and me, because you get it,” shared their own experiences with severe anxiety and panic attacks.

What I have come to realize is that by sharing my truth, I gave permission for others to share theirs. The unspoken conspiracy of silence is then broken. People feel safe to share their most intimate and sometimes painful life experiences with you when they see that you have shared your own.

When you share your truth, you give, both, yourself and others such a wonderful gift. You not only liberate yourself; you liberate other people to feel safe sharing their truth.

If you worked on-site at the lab for 250 workdays between 1947 and 1993 for Associated Universities, the AEC/DOE, or a subcontractor, or were a researcher living on-site at Brookhaven National Lab, and were later diagnosed with one of 23 specified types of cancer, I will help you, or direct survivors, get a six figure entitlement award. Awards range from $150,000 to $400,000, and include worker medical benefits, including home health care. This is a taxpayer funded entitlement for DOE workers/survivors. It involves no liability to any employer and is not a lawsuit.

Since 2007 I’ve done this nationally for 3,000 sick DOE workers or their survivors. I have helped more than half of the 928 paid BNL families receive their cancer awards. Non-cancer respiratory and renal disease cases are also possible. Let me ask a few simple questions. I’ll give you a frank (and free) assessment as to whether I can help. I’m not a lawyer and this is no lawsuit. I am a national expert on EEOICPA entitlement. I unravel the frustrating red tape so you don’t have to. You get paid directly by the U.S. Treasury. My fee is so modest L.I. lawyers hire me to do the work for their own family members. No appeal fees. No fine print.

individuals, their families and the people who support them. Instruction about important procedures and protocols for before, during and after a disaster will be presented.

This training is being reintroduced by popular demand and will be offered in Suffolk County in March and in Nassau County in April. In order to run these classes, the foundation is asking for donations of first aid kits, monetary donations (to cover the cost of class materials) supplies, as well as donations of space for other classes to be held around Long Island.

Additionally, The Nature Experience is a new PBS Community Foundation class that was introduced last year. This course has enriched the lives of many self-directed individuals through learning about and having contact with the natural world. Enrollees gain knowledge about the animals that can be found living in and around Caleb Smith State Park/Nature Preserve, located in Smithtown. The Nature Experience provides an all-inclusive social environment, where friendships can develop through shared interests and experiences.

The instructor, Jordan Ofgang, is a certified K-12 Special Educator and a life-long resident of Long Island. He is also an avid nature lover and explorer! Jordan leads the group weekly for the following: a lesson on one or more animals, a mindful hike focusing on the lesson content and nature safety, a wrap-up for group discussion, social time and snacks.

These popular classes, and more, are made possible through the generous donations of individuals, businesses and the community at large that share the goals and mission of the PBS Community Foundation.

Anyone who is interested in learning more about this foundation and their initiatives can visit their website at www. pbscommunityfoundation.org for more information/to view calendar of events or you can contact Ruth-Ann Hartney at info@pbscommunityfoundation.org!

RECIPES

Zucchini Pie

By Terry Rydzynski of Commack, New York All recipes are made with love, but when passed down through multiple generations, they carry tremendous meaning. South Bay’s own Terry Rydzynski loves to reminisce about her late Aunt Sally and the Zucchini Pie recipe that Sally passed down to her.

“My Aunt Sally’s mother passed this recipe to my mother, who passed it on to me and my daughter,” shares Terry.

“We make this dish on big holidays as an appetizer before the main course. I made my Zucchini Pie on Christmas for my twenty-five guests and people ask for it every year.”

In remembering her beloved Aunt, Terry continues, “Aunt Sally is gone, but her recipe lives on in our family, year after year.”

How To Make Zucchini Pie Combine: 3 cups thinly sliced zucchini (you can also substitute asparagus) 1small chopped onion 1 cup of Bisquick mix 4 large eggs 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1/2 cup parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon parsley flakes (or 1/4 cup of finely chopped fresh parsley) salt and pepper to taste Mix all together, put mixture into a greased 12” baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for thirty-five minutes. Cut into two inch squares, serve and enjoy!

Send your recipes to AllisonK@ SouthBaysNeighbor.com for a chance to have your recipe featured in an upcoming issue!

The PBS Community Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, was established to help people with autism spectrum disorders, developmental disabilities and other special needs. They particularly focus on selfdetermination and full inclusion in the local community.

Now more than ever, individuals with disabilities are seeking the opportunity to stay in their own communities and pursue their personal goals, while receiving the needed levels of support to make full community inclusion a sustainable reality.

In New York State, anyone who is eligible for OPWDD Services (NYS Office For People With Developmental Disabilities) and enrolled in the Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Waiver, can choose to self-direct their services.

Self-direction is a person-centered approach that empowers individuals with developmental disabilities to create a life plan with support that they chose, based on their unique strengths, needs and goals. It also gives the individual more control over how funding is used to purchase needed support and services.

While the number of individuals choosing to self-direct their services is quickly growing, the PBS Community Foundation aims to provide support through grass roots, community based networks.

In addition to some of this foundation’s initiatives: Big Time Glee, Nassau Voice, The Crafting Connection and Mid-Week Meetups, they also offer workshops and classes based on the interests and needs expressed by individuals in their self-directed community… one being their Emergency Preparedness Training. This training seeks to assist young adult and adult individuals that are selfdetermined and living in their community to develop a plan for staying safe.

In light of what many of us experienced as a result of Super Storm Sandy, it has become evident that we are not all fully prepared for being evacuated, living without electricity or living without cell phone communication. Many were traumatized because of the changes made to their everyday life. The Emergency Preparedness Training/Workshops are comprehensive and based on California’s Feeling Safe, Being Safe program. The program is appropriate for all self-determined

New Tech Compliments Learning Hands-on activities were plentiful at Seneca Middle School in the Sachem Central School District during a visit from Sachem Public Library representatives that introduced students to a number of new technologybased learning devices and low-tech building components.

During technology

classes, representatives from the Sachem Public Library brought several devices for students to explore. Among the available technologies were iPad Pros equipped with software for those interested in digital art, Osmo tablets to assist students in drawing and tangrams, which challenged students’ handeye coordination and critical thinking skills. In addition,

Bravery on Full Display

students navigated small programmable robots called mBots through a course using iPads.

Complementing the high-tech learning tools, students applied design and engineering concepts to low-tech tactile learning materials while building figures and structures with Strawbees, Legos and magnetic shapes.

The entire seventh-grade class at Oakdale-Bohemia Middle School recently took part in their annual Brave Day event alongside faculty and staff in an effort to promote togetherness, antibullying and selfappreciation.

Throughout the course of the day, students took part in programs consisting of team-building activities and thoughtful discussions around the topics of

breaking boundaries and prejudices, and being brave enough to share authentic feelings while making peer connections.

The students highly enjoyed themselves as they engaged in the “Would You Rather Activity,” which asked them questions such as which superpower they would prefer, and if they would rather have a cat or a dog as a pet.

According to the staff,

their mission is to create a safe learning environment that brings forth a culture of compassion, connection and curiosity, all in an effort to eliminate bullying at the roots.

The district would like to thank OBMS staff members Diana Burke, Shannon Lehnert and Mairead McInnis for their help in coordinating this wonderful event.

Visiting Ellis Island Ellis Island shortly after.

While there, the students engaged in a scavenger hunt to familiarize themselves with the many exhibits which expanded their horizons on the topic.

After departing Ellis Island, the students were given a beautiful view of the lady of the harbor herself, the Statue of Liberty.

At the conclusion of the trip, the students and staff members dined

for a delicious Mexican lunch and shared stories of their productive and highly educational day.

According to Señora McGinnis, the students are looking forward to their next field trip where they’ll be studying Spanish architecture at the Vanderbilt Museum in Centerport followed with an interactive lesson and lunch at Quetzalcoatl restaurant in Huntington.

Vivica A. Fox Talks

Womanhood & Hollywood

By Allison Kugel Kind, conscientious, courageous and refreshingly candid, Ms. Vivica A. Fox has proven that as Hollywood careers go, second acts are often the sweetest. The multi-hyphenate actress-beauty entrepreneur-author is embracing life and not looking back, except to pull from her well of wisdom for her memoir, Every Day I’m Hustling.

Allison Kugel: When are you Angie and when are you Vivica? When do you take off the Vivica and become Angie from Indianapolis?

Vivica A. Fox: Well first off, that’s Angie Fox from 38th and Emerson in Indianapolis (laughs)! I’m Vivica Fox when I hit that red carpet and I’m ready to slay the game. That’s what I do. But I love that I have in my life, and in my journey, learned when to be Angie Fox. And that’s mainly when I’m with my family, time off, hanging out with my godchildren, having my Me Time and learning to take some Me Time. That’s when I’m no makeup, baseball cap, chilling and blending in.

do they live? That’s where I’m going!

That’s what I want to do.” I made that decision during my senior year in high school. But I had to trick my mama (laughs), and tell her I was going to go to college in California. I did go to college, but I would be sneaking up to Hollywood and going to modeling agencies. I had a girlfriend who was an actress, and I used to read lines with her. She would say, “You’re pretty good at this, you should try it.”

anything else. It’s taken awhile, and that’s something I want to share with people. My book is a motivational memoir. I, too, have fallen down and had to figure out how to get back up and create new chapters for myself.

I want to encourage, enlighten and inspire other people.

Allison Kugel: Your book is part memoir and part motivational guidebook for success. Tell me about your own mentor, or mentors…

Vivica A. Fox: It’s part of life. It’s going to happen. And it’s like you just asked, “Do you know that you’re sexy right now?” But do people also know that for the last few years, that’s what’s been going on in my life? I embraced it and I got in front of it. I didn’t let it define me or make me want to whittle away. I don’t know why with women, we can’t talk about our bodies and what we go through, share it with others, and not feel like we have to hide that from people. I’m sharing it, and I got in front of it and took care of myself. I really feel like it made me take good care of myself.

Vivica A. Fox: My mentor would have to be a good friend of mine, and my first acting coach, Sheila Wills. I’m her two daughters’ godmother. Sheila, I met when I was doing [the daytime soap opera] Generations. She took me under her wing, and she would work with me with auditions. I would go into those auditions and just nail them. I attribute my success to her.

Allison Kugel: Do you prefer yourself that way?

Allison Kugel: Coming from the Midwest, your father was a school administrator, your mother worked for a pharmaceutical company, so you really had no ties to entertainment or Los Angeles for that matter. What gave you that spark of courage to believe that you could become a successful actress?

Vivica A. Fox: I was introduced to the world of fashion and modeling by Madame King, my late auntie. She had her own beauty salon back in the day.

She was the first one to cut my hair and put me on a runway. I was kind of bitten by the bug at thirteen. From that point forward, I just fell in love with magazines and fashion. Then I went to go see Michael Jackson in concert, and Diana Ross in concert. I had never seen African Americans being so fabulous, and I was like, “Where

Allison Kugel: Let’s talk about motherhood. I know you have all these nieces and nephews, and godchildren. I feel like motherhood, meaning the energy of motherhood, is something that is innate in all women. We have a need to nurture.

How does that energy express itself through you?

She would say, “Vivica, you’ve got to stay ready. You got to be ready.

You’ve got to take care of yourself.”

And people who inspired me to be who I am would be Diana Ross and Pam Grier.

Allison Kugel: Do you know that you’re incredibly sexy? Is that something you’re aware of?

Vivica A. Fox: Thank you! I appreciate that. Got to keep it tight and right, girl (laughs)!

Allison Kugel: More so, now, than twenty years ago, in my opinion.

Vivica A. Fox: Maybe because… No, not maybe! Because I am comfortable in my own skin. I’m very comfortable with me. I have embraced my womanhood through my pluses and my minuses. I’m good with me right now, so that’s what you’re seeing. My spirit is happy, more than

Vivica A. Fox: I’m Mama Bear all the time! I have a nurturing instinct and I think I get that from my mother. My mother always loved to take care of others. Still to this day, she doesn’t take as good care of herself, because she is always looking out for others. I got that quality from her. When I walk on a set, I’m always making sure that I speak to everyone, that I try to make people as comfortable as possible. In that way, I am very motherly. It’s just something in me, I like to look out for others. But the older I’ve gotten, I’ve learned to look out more for myself, as well. And I’ve learned a very important word: No. Allison Kugel: How do you define glamour and beauty?

Vivica A. Fox: Someone who is a goddess, who just radiates confidence; someone who owns her moment, who seizes her moment.

I believe that beauty radiates from the inside. Especially nowadays with these build-a-bodies, and everything is just makeup and fakeness in my opinion right now. It’s when you meet a person and they are a beautiful person, they radiate confidence and

kindness. I find beauty in a woman that has no makeup on, but she’s confident in her own skin and radiates kindness and does for others. To me, that’s beautiful.

Allison Kugel: What do you think is the biggest misconception about success?

Vivica A. Fox: That it’s easy. When you’re successful, usually it’s taken a long time to build a career. It isn’t something that happens overnight.

It takes time to build a career, and a career means being able to go through different stages and chapters of a career, not just being the hot chick of the moment. For me, I went from being the hot ingenue chick, to now building my brand and producing and directing.

Allison Kugel: Do you want Hollywood to be colorblind in writing and casting roles, or do you want to be identified, and cast, as an African American actress?

Allison Kugel: I know that God is speaking to me when…

Vivica A. Fox: Woo! Hmm. All the time. Every day when I wake up and I can thank Him for letting me see another day. I would say, I know God is speaking to me all the time, and He helps me make better choices.

Allison Kugel: My spiritual mission in this life is…

Vivica A. Fox: To be kind, to do unto others and to leave a good mark. everything. That’s a success.

Allison Kugel is an entertainment columnist, and author of the book, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a life unhinged and on the record. Follow her on Instagram @theallisonkugel and visit AllisonKugel.com.

Vivica A. Fox: Of course, I always want to be seen as a talented African American actress, because that’s who I am. I feel that right now, what’s going on in Hollywood is that, man, that glass ceiling has been busted wide open. It’s been a long time coming, with the success of Black Panther, with the success of television shows like Scandal and Empire and How to Get Away with Murder; with Oprah having her own network. It’s about damn time.

Allison Kugel: Finish these sentences for me. I know I can trust someone when…

Vivica A. Fox: When I’ve truly gotten to know them.

Vivica’s Memoir, Every Day I’m Hustling is out now.

Vivica A. Fox: Oh my gosh! To be honest with you, the older I’ve gotten, the more I prefer it. I work so much; I’ve been so blessed and so busy lately that I enjoy when I can have that Me Time. In fact, today I don’t have to be on. That’s what I really love about being with my godchildren. When they see me, I’m just G.G. or G-ma.

G.G. stands for Gorgeous Godmother.

G-ma, I don’t know where they got that one from, but I have five godchildren.

Two of them call me G-ma and the other ones call me G.G. They like hanging with me. Not the drama or the glamour, they just want me.

Students Entrenched in French Students enrolled in Ashley Lefevre’s French classes at Connetquot High School visited with Edward J. Bosti Elementary School C-Quest students in an effort to engage in activities and lessons surrounding French language and culture.

Throughout the duration of their visit, the students interacted with one another and engaged in activities such as

learning how to count to 20 in the French language, along with rotating in a number of Frenchthemed activity stations.

The activity stations consisted of distinguishing body parts, classifying classroom objects, naming animals and studying the geographical locations of France.

Additionally, utilizing the Kahoot web-based program, the high school

students prepared an interactive quiz for the younger students displayed entirely in the French language.

With help from C-Quest, advisers Lisa Manzo and Kevin Keane, Connetquot’s C-Quest program is dedicated to enhancing the educational experience of fourth- and fifth-grade students.

Student-Directed Discussion For the second consecutive year, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Kenneth Graham and various members of the administration visited each school building throughout the Sachem Central School District to gain valuable insight on building culture and student concerns through student roundtable

discussions.

At each school building, principals selected a group of students from varying activity and grade levels to meet with Dr. Graham to discuss a wide range of topics. The roundtable discussions also provided students across the district with an opportunity to voice the ideas and opinions of their peers.

Topics covered during each discussion included student engagement in class, safety and security, school culture, ways to combat bullying, the availability of extra- and co-curricular activities and ways to further support student success.

Connetquot Marine Visit Private First-Class U.S. Marine and Connetquot High School alumna Lauren Sherer recently returned to the OakdaleBohemia Middle School to visit with a few of her former teachers and surprise her sister in class this past December.

Lauren’s sister, Brooke, who was completely unaware of the visit, was overwhelmed with joy when her older sister stepped foot into her social studies class taught

by Jonathan Agatstein.

Mr. Agatstein displayed a video about the history and traditions of the U.S. Marine Corps during Lauren’s visit, and she then answered students’ questions which ranged

from the types of training she underwent, to makeup and hair styles that are regulated while she is in uniform.

PFC Sherer graduated from Connetquot High School in June 2018, and three days later she was headed for Parris Island Recruit Depot in South Carolina. The 12-week training program turns recruits into a fighting force and earns each of them the title of U.S. Marine when they receive their Eagle, Globe and Anchor.

It was a wonderful visit home for Lauren, and even more enjoyable for Oakdale-Bohemia Middle School Principal Susanne Bailey and Lauren’s former

teachers who remember a young and shy little girl, who blossomed into a confident and highly trained member of the U.S. Marine Corps.

Additionally, while Lauren was on holiday leave at home, she had the chance to visit Connetquot High School as a recruiter, answering questions from graduating seniors who had an interest in knowing more about the military branch.

Lauren will be headed to Mississippi for additional training in the area of Aviation Supply, and is hoping to be assigned to a base on the California CONNETQUOT MARINE VISIT - Private First-Class U.S. Marine and Connetquot coast after her training is High School alumna Lauren Sherer is pictured with (l-r) Oakdale-Bohemia Middle School Principal Susanne Bailey, Lauren’s sister Brooke and Oakdale-Bohemia Middle complete. *REVISION School social studies teacher Jonathan Agatstein during her recent visit to the school.

Roofing Solutions To Environmental Concerns (NAPSI)—More and more Americans are calling the nation’s cities home.

According to 2010 Census data, an estimated 80.7 percent of Americans now live in urban areas—up from 79 percent in 2000.

Not only does this urban population increasingly tax the country’s infrastructure, but it is also having an effect—both directly and indirectly—on the environment.

The Heat Is On The urban heat island (UHI) effect is a phenomenon in which metropolitan areas are typically warmer than nearby rural areas mainly due to the large areas of paved surfaces and buildings that capture the sun’s energy, hold it and

slowly radiate the heat back out into the air. The concentration of heat in these densely populated regions creates additional health risks for residents due to heat exposure and the enhanced formation of air pollutants, especially ozone.

Rooftops, roads and parking lots comprise a large percentage of the man-made surface area in urban areas. When analyzing effective UHI mitigation strategies, scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory determined that widespread deployment of “cool roofs” and “cool pavements” would decrease urban temperatures, which in turn could offset some or

all of the projected future warming trends.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, a cool roof is one that has been designed to reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat than a standard roof. Beyond the building itself, cool roofs can also benefit the environment by: • Reducing local air temperatures; • Lowering peak electricity demand, which can help prevent power outages; and • Reducing power plant emissions, including carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and mercury.

In order to help protect the environment and meet increasingly stringent

ordinances calling for cool roof technology, 3M developed Cool Roofing Granules. These granules are used in shingles that can be energy efficient, solar reflective and economically friendly.

This technology can reduce urban heating as well as lower energy consumption in climates with year-round cooling needs. In addition, many of the shingles that contain 3M Cool Granules meet Energy Star requirements, making them the premier choice for green building.

Further, the granules are available in a wide variety of rich colors that can create the perfect shingle color blend.

The Eradication of Smog Another problem in

urban areas is smog pollution, caused by a buildup of nitrogen oxides in the air. An estimated four in 10 Americans currently live in counties with unhealthy levels of particle pollution.

To combat this growing concern, 3M recently launched Smog-reducing Granules, which help remove smog pollution using roofing shingles.

Integrated throughout a shingle’s surface, the granules are designed with a specialized photocatalytic coating applied to the base mineral. As sunlight hits the shingles, radicals are generated, transforming nitrogen oxide gases into water-soluble ions, thereby improving air quality.

“3M is leading the way

with roofing technology solutions for improving environmental impacts on human health and welfare,” said Frank Klink, Ph.D., senior laboratory manager, 3M. “The roofing granules are a first for residential asphalt shingles. The new 3M granules will help roofing manufacturers develop high-quality, aesthetically pleasing shingles that can turn any roof into an active smog-reducing catalyst, essentially becoming smog’s worst enemy.”
