“I want to thank the Hochul administration and the DOT commissioner for hearing our pleas and for advancing the schedule of paving the LIE from Exits 47-65 to fix the unsafe conditions for motorists and motorcyclists,” Assemblyman Keith P. Brown. “We are happy to see it being done. It’s overdue!”

“I am grateful to Gov. Hochul and the New York State Department of Transportation for expediting the muchneeded repaving of the LIE,” Assembly Member Doug Smith said, “I am happy that the concerns of our residents and local officials have been heard and look forward to seeing the project completed.”

“The repaving will make travel on the LIE safe and will keep women and men in labor busy for years to come,” said Assembly

Member Jodi Giglio.

“Thank you Gov. Hochul and NYS DOT for making this long awaited project happen.”

“I have spoken to the DOT on the critical need to repave the LIE and today’s announcement is an important first step to ensure it gets done,” said Senator Alexis Weik. “The safety of our motorists is paramount and I am pleased that the DOT is making repaving the LIE—a majority of which will take place in the 3rd Senate District—a priority.”

“The state DOT moving forward with bids to resurface the LIE could not come soon enough,” Assembly Member Joe DeStefano said. “This is a vital roadway for all of Long Island and must be properly maintained. The state must stay on schedule with the bidding process and get the job done.

The safety and economic wellbeing of millions of people depends on it.”

The Charity of the Month for November is

Project 9 Line www.project9line.org

Project 9 Line is a non-profit organization that was formed in 2014 by Patrick Donohue Their focus is to bridge the communication gap between veterans and civilians. Through outreach, communication and purpose, they enable veterans to express themselves uniquely through forms of art.

P

Patrick Donohue is a veteran himself and has an inspiring story of his own. He served in the Army on active duty from 2008 to 2012.

He was deployed to Kandahar, Afghanistan from May of 2010 to April of 2011. Later, he reenlisted into the Army reserves, which he served in from 2014 to 2016.

After combat, Patrick got hit right away with some less-than-ideal feelings, such as anxiety and depression. “I was totally lost and alone and I had pushed away everybody I loved and fear ruled my life.

Anxiety and depression filled my day and I never thought that I would be able to be a regular person again,” said Donohue. “I avoided everything and everybody to best protect myself from the unknown. Finally when the pain became so great I had a moment of clarity and I asked for help. I checked into the VA hospital in Northport and began the process of what ultimately turned my life around.”

Slowly but surely, things started to turn around for him. While he was in the VA hospital, he was exposed to some art and wellness programs that completely transformed the way he viewed himself. “I started writing poetry, meditating, and doing yoga and these activities had a profound impact on me.” He was looking to see if any veteran organization offered those programs and services outside of the VA and he didn’t find any, so at that time he decided that he would build it himself.

Probably not even realizing how courageous and strong he really was, Patrick then wrote a business plan for what became this organization (Project 9 Line), so that he could bring art and wellness programs to other veterans on Long Island who might also be struggling. Little did he know that participating in those wellness programs and helping other veterans would become his calling and passion in life.

STATE LAWMAKERS CELEBRATE WIN IN FIGHT TO REPAIR LIE Assemblymembers Doug Smith (R,C,I-Holbrook), Jodi Giglio (R,C,I- Riverhead), Keith P. Brown (R,C,I- Northport), Joe Destefano (R,C,I- Medford) and State Senator Alexis Weik (R- Sayville) stand beside section of LI Expressway soon to be repaved.

In late 2020, Donohue was sworn in as an attorney and started his own law firm focused on veterans law, specifically VA disability and discharge upgrades. To this day he still runs that firm, and he also is an

E

LIN

Adjunct Professor at the Touro Law School Veterans Clinic, where he assists students with their veteran clients.

“Just a few years ago I had a tough time integrating and now I’m a productive and happy father, husband and attorney. I currently practice meditation, BJJ , yoga, play ice hockey, and I float in a float tank as often as I can. All of these practices are best for me as they bring me into the moment. I believe the best way to overcome trauma is to be in the moment as much as possible.

In the past I have participated in many of Project 9 Line’s programs, including stand up comedy, which also helped me immensely on my journey.”

Patrick still works on himself day to day, but knows that even if you face hard times, you can eventually get through them.

Whether you’re a veteran wants to sign up for one to heal, learn or just to be a part of something locally, there is a spot for you to sign up for a class offered at Project 9 Line.

Each class is held at their headquarters at 25 Union Ave, Islip, NY 11751. See the current class listing below: Mondays at 7PM: Yoga Tuesdays at 3:30PM: Guitar Group Thursdays at 4:30PM: Guitar Group Fridays at 10:30AM: Visual Art Class Fridays at 5PM: Bass Guitar Lessons Additionally, Project9line has recently partnered with some of the most reputable BJJ and Yoga schools on Long Island to offer hundreds of FREE classes for this whole entire month of November! For these class locations and schedules, visit project9line. org/class-schedule.

Thank you Patrick for letting me share your story, I truly hope it inspires others like it inspires me. If you are facing hard times right now, do not be afraid to ask for help.

State lawmakers gathered at the Long Island Welcome Center on the Long Island Expressway to commemorate the success of their hard work to address safety and efficiency concerns on the Long Island Expressway.

The team of legislators, including members of both the state Senate and Assembly, were able to successfully direct attention to and ensure state infrastructure resources were dedicated to fixing the LI Expressway.

The governor’s office announced last week that the project would replace more than 280 miles of pavement on key stretches of the LI Expressway in Suffolk County, significantly improving the mobility of the hundreds of thousands of motorists travelling between Long Island and New York City every day.

In addition to hundreds of miles of new road in Suffolk County, the project will also address issues

(StatePoint) For deployed service members who are also parents, being away from their kids is often the hardest part of the job.

This is why the United Service Organizations (USO) has prioritized connecting military parents with their families.

One way to bring service members a reminder of home is through USO entertainment tours, the most famous tour veteran, of course, being legendary comedian Bob Hope.

Hope’s legacy of service lives on today through the Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program.

Bringing story time ondemand around the globe, the program connected more than 39,000 military families around the world through reading in 2019 alone. Service members visit participating USO locations, record themselves reading their child’s favorite story and the USO ships that recording and book home to loved ones.

Likewise, military kids can record themselves reading a book and share the story time memories with their parents serving overseas.

Additionally, local USO reading events encourage kids to use their

creativity and complete a craft that complements a story’s theme.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit and many locations had to temporarily shut their doors, this did not deter USO volunteers and staff from finding innovative ways to continue their efforts safely. USO Erbil in Iraq put their ingenuity to work and outfitted the back of a pickup truck with a makeshift trifold to serve as a reading “room.”

They then decorated the inside of the room and packed up a box of books, some props and a chair. The USO team drove the truck

all around base, stopping outside popular locations as well as remote areas to reach as many service members as possible with their new, unofficial “Bob Hope on the Road” reading room.

To learn about how you can help connect military families through reading, visit uso.org/programs.

Parents universally know the draw of reading “one more book” to a pleading little one at bedtime.

The Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program gives that opportunity back to deployed parents.

There is much to be thankful for in November.

Here’s a look at some of the interesting facts about the month.

• Many elections take place in the United States on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November.

• November used to be the ninth month of the calendar of Romulus.

That all changed when the calendar was modified and January and February were added.

• November is 30 days long. It is one of four

months that last 30 days.

• November is the last full month of the fall season in the northern hemisphere.

• The chrysanthemum is the flower of November, which is fitting since so many mums are seen during the fall.

• November’s birthstones are topaz and citrine.

• People born in November fall under the zodiac signs of Scorpio or Sagittarius.

• Veterans are commemorated in both

Canada and the United States each year on November 11.

• November’s full moon is known as the Beaver Moon. Algonquin tribes and colonial Americans would use the month to set beaver traps before the swamps froze to ensure a supply of furs for the winter. It is also sometimes called the Full Frost Moon.

• According to folklore and The Farmer’s Almanac: “Ice in November brings mud in December.”

“IF YOU NEED IT WE HAVE IT”

The Connetquot Central School District congratulates Sycamore Elementary School third grade special education teacher Andria Onorato, who received St. Joseph’s College Rising Star Award for her dedication and service in the field of education. Ms. Onorato will be presented her award at the Esse Non Videri Gala Awards Dinner, Celebrating

Outstanding Educators, to be held in November.

This annual event highlights the legacy and accomplishments of St. Joseph’s College alumni in several categories, including the Rising Star Award that celebrates educators who have been teaching or working in education for less than three academic years. According to the

description of the award, educators like Ms. Onorato are making a striking impact during the early stages of their teaching careers and are displaying effective leadership, classroom innovation, collaboration efforts and creativity in the classroom that assists students in succeeding.

Virtual Thyroid Cancer Support Group

ThyCa Long Island, a support group for thyroid cancer survivors will be holding a free virtual meeting on the Zoom platform on Sunday, November 14 from 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM. Please contact Abby Melendez at 516-608-5113 or via e-mail at longisland-ny@thyca. org for further details.

We will continue to meet online until the shelter-inplace order has been lifted.

ThyCa Long Island,

a support group for thyroid cancer survivors, is affiliated with ThyCa: Thyroid Cancer Survivors’ Association, Inc.; a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization of thyroid cancer survivors, family members, and health care professionals.

We are dedicated to support, education, and communication for thyroid cancer survivors, their families and friends.

We also sponsor Thyroid

Cancer Awareness Month, year-round awareness activities, and thyroid cancer research fundraising and research grants.

At meetings people share thyroid cancer information, their experiences, and insights on how they are coping with thyroid cancer. The support group is free and open to any and all survivors and their families and friends.

New York Cancer & Blood Specialists (NYCBS), one of the leading oncology practices in the Nation, has once again teamed up with AdvantageCare Physicians (ACPNY), one of New York’s largest primary and specialty care practices, to provide state-of-the-art cancer care in Bethpage, New York. The new cancer center is located at 1055 Stewart Avenue, Bethpage, NY 11714. This will be the practice’s second Nassau County location within the ACPNY collaboration.

“As we invest in more direct care for our Long Island communities, which includes our Bethpage and Valley Stream sites, as well as ACPNY’s soon-to-open Uniondale office location, our ‘whole you’ approach, continues to help Long Island patients pursue better health by giving them easier access to a full range of primary and specialty care right in their own back yard,” said Dr. Navarra Rodriguez, Chief Medical Officer of ACPNY. “NYCBS’s collocation at AdvantageCare Physicians in Bethpage expands vital cancer care access to residents of Nassau County,” said Jeff Vacirca, MD, CEO of NYCBS. “The collaboration provides for greater resources and convenient care, all under one roof and closer to

ARUNA GUPTA, MD home. These additional services allow NYCBS to continue its mission of delivering comprehensive patient care.”

The new cancer center co-located at ACPNY’s Bethpage Medical Office offers an array of integrated cancer services, including medical oncology, hematology, radiation oncology, diagnostic imaging, and comprehensive support services.

In addition, NYCBS offers cutting-edge medical technology and equipment, a full-service research department, 60+ clinical trials with the latest cancer therapeutics, and an on-site laboratory and pharmacy.

Earlier this year, ACPNY celebrated the opening of the brand new, 68,582-square foot medical office in

Bethpage. This state-ofthe-art facility which has accommodations for 25 doctors, also includes a full GI suite with two procedure rooms, ultrasound-guided biopsies, ophthalmology services (optical coherence tomography testing, visual fields, Pentacam, laser procedures, and retina specialty), full laboratory, co-located partnership with Lenox Hill Radiology (x-ray, ultrasound, bone density, and 3D mammography) and co-located partnership with EmblemHealth Neighborhood Care (access to community resources, wellness programs, and in-person and virtual customer support).

ACPNY medical offices, like Bethpage, are designed to make coordination of care seamless by bringing together a range of primary care and specialty services offered by ACPNY and its clinical partners in one convenient location for patients. Board-certified hematologist-oncologist Dr. Aruna Gupta will practice at the Bethpage location, and Dr. Nolyn Nyatanga will join her on January 1, 2021.

To make an appointment, please call (718) 732-4049.

Millions of men and women serve in the military and make the sacrifices that such service requires. Risking their lives to serve their countries, veterans sometimes endure mental and physical trauma, returning home to face uphill battles as they deal with their injuries.

Many veterans in need are not just in need of medical attention. Learning that their efforts and sacrifices are recognized and appreciated by the ordinary citizens they protect can make a world of difference to veterans as they recover from their injuries. Men, women and children who want to help veterans in need can do so in various ways.

• Visit a veterans hospital. Contact a local veterans’ hospital to inquire about their volunteer programs. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs notes that each year more than 75,000 volunteers spend more than 11 million hours in service to America’s veterans. Visiting veterans at the hospital to hear their stories can lift their spirits and aid in their recoveries.

In addition, veterans’ hospitals may have volunteer opportunities that make it easier for hospitals to operate at optimal capacity.

• Help a neighbor. Unfortunately, many veterans return home with injuries that affect their ability to make it through a typical day without assistance. Disabled veterans may be unable to do their own grocery shopping or maintain their homes. If a neighbor or nearby veteran is facing such hurdles, offer to do his or her shopping or mow his or her lawn. Such tasks won’t take much time but can make a world of difference to veterans.

• Offer professional services free of charge.

How To Help Veterans In Need Professionals who want to help veterans can offer their services free of charge. Accountants can offer to prepare veterans’ tax returns for free, while attorneys can provide legal advice to veterans who need it. Contractors can help disabled veterans by offering to make alterations to their homes for free or at cost.

• Employ social media to help local veterans.

Many people who want to help local veterans might not be able to do so more than one day per week. But some veterans may require daily assistance. Men and women can start a locally-

based Facebook group for fellow members of their community who want to pitch in to help local veterans. Such a group can make it easier to share information and arrange help for veterans in need.

Many veterans return home from serving overseas in need of help. Offering such help can improve veterans’ lives while letting them know their efforts and sacrifices are appreciated.
