GIVING THE GIFT OF READING - Connetquot Central School District’s central office staff helped to make the holidays a warm one for children by once again taking part in an annual pajama day event. The program, which supports Scholastic’s annual Great Bedtime Story Pajama Drive, invited staff to wear their cozy pajamas to work in exchange for donating a new pair of pajamas to the drive. For each pair collected, Scholastic Book Clubs pledged to donate a brand new book and distribute the package for children in need. Photo courtesy of the Connetquot Central School District

RESOLUTIONS New Year’s resolutions can be traced to the Mesopotamians. Ancient Babylonians also made spoken resolutions during a 12-day-long New Year Festival. These resolutions were oaths made to the sitting or new king and were considered essential to keeping the kingdom in the gods’ favor. The Romans also had a similar tradition of swearing oath to royalty at the start of the year. Many of these traditions merged into modern resolution-making, according to Live Science.

While not everyone can venture to New York City’s famed Times Square to watch the ball drop in person, millions tune in around the world to watch it on television.

Original celebrations in New York centered around listening to the bells of Trinity Church ring at midnight, but the New Year’s Eve celebrations were later moved to the New York Times building in 1904. Fireworks were part of those celebrations, but hot ash and sparks falling on spectators led to a ban on fireworks, and event organizers needed another spectacle to draw crowds, according to PBS. Publisher Adolph Ochs asked his chief electrician Walter Palmer to create

New Year’s celebrations can be traced back thousands of years to ancient Babylon. And as with many holidays with deep histories, traditions are the hallmark of many New Year’s celebrations. While many people perform these traditions by rote, it can be interesting to delve into the history behind various components of New Year’s celebrations.

Toasting the new year with a sparkling wine can be traced back to French champagne producers.

Champagne, a sparkling wine from a specific region of France, was used in the baptism of the Frankish warrior Clovis, according to the Champagne Committee of France. Soon, champagne became a key part of religious events, coronations and soirees - as well as secular rituals that replaced formerly religious rituals, according to the book “When Champagne Became French” by Kolleen Guy. Champagne manufacturers eventually linked the bubbly to festive occasions with family, and New Year’s celebrations became another ideal time to pop the cork on a bottle.

78th anniversary of Pearl Harbor Day, the veterans of the Longwood community, and those serving on active duty.

“I commend the Longwood community for recognizing our military men and women and those who were lost 78 years

ago at Pearl Harbor,” said Legislator Anker. “The holiday season reminds us to think of those who are unable to join us in celebration, because they are protecting one of our greatest gifts: freedom and security of our country.”

Sleep Better, Stress Less (NAPSI)-Here’s eyeopening news: Recently published research from Oklahoma State University suggests that improving quality of sleep not only reduces stress, but also helps us manage

everyday stress.

“When you’re stressed and tired, every aspect of your life is affected,” says lifestyle expert and spokesperson for the Better Sleep Council, Lissa Coffey. “Controlling

stress and getting a good night’s rest start with evaluating your lifestyle.”

Dr. Douglas MacKay, N.D., vice president, scientific and regulatory affairs, Council for Responsible Nutrition,

agrees: “Eating a healthy diet, taking vitamins and other supplements, exercising regularly and getting adequate amounts of sleep are all part of a healthy lifestyle.”

Here are more tips to

help you sleep better and stress less: 1. Eat a well-balanced diet.

2. Take your vitamins, including a daily multivitamin. Ask your doctor about other

supplements, like valerian, for healthy sleep.

3.

Evaluate your mattress--consider replacing it if it’s five to seven years old or older.

John Theissen C h i l d r e n ’ s Foundation is a local non-profit that collects and distributes toys, provides hospitals and child-care facilities with therapeutic and recreational e q u i p m e n t , supports families with financial assistance to defray medical expenses, fulfills patient’s wishlists throughout the year (for those 18 years of age and younger) and assists sick and underpriviledged children in other ways that are needed.

Of course this charity experiences their busy season in the midst of the holidays, receiving and distributing lots of gifts for those in need, however, they make a large impact
