LIU Post’s growing fashion merchandising program is unique to the region, with a focus on the business end of the fashion industry. The mannequins and dresses will be part of a Capstone project this spring where the students will catalog and display the items, creating a full fashion exhibition with detailed signage as their culminating project.

Cherie Serota, Director of Fashion Merchandising at LIU Post, was thrilled with the significant gifts for the program.

As part of the Intro to Fashion Merchandising coursework, students studied fashion by the decade from the Victorian era to the present. The couture gowns all come from the 1980s era.

Helping You Help Others By: Noelle Lambert

Noelle@SouthBaysNeighbor.com

For many, the holiday season is a time of giving and receiving. A lot of us are so fortunate that we get showered with presents and then ring in the New Year with joyous thoughts of new beginnings. But what about the rest of us? Let’s not forget about those who really need our help!

The Long Island Coalition for the Homeless is an organization that was originally founded as the Nassau-Suffolk Partnership for the Homeless in 1985. LICH now works to educate the public and advocates for the development and expansion of permanent, affordable housing - so those working in low-wage jobs and/or on disability and public assistance can have decent, safe housing for themselves and their children.

This organization brings together over 60 nonprofits and local government with the mission to help people on Long Island who are facing homelessness or are homeless. Each month, their members come together and listen to current concerns and opportunities within the nonprofit community, learn about openings in housing placements and more.

The Coalition runs a popular Boutique in Amityville, right by their main office. The Boutique is open on Monday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and allows veterans and other neighbors-inneed to access, free of charge, new and gently used essential items such as clothing, housewares and emergency food.

This Boutique is much more than a distribution

center, as it engages the community in volunteerism and spreads awareness about the issue of homelessness. The Boutique always welcomes volunteers and donations and offers community service hours to those willing to volunteer! At this point in time, they are currently taking donations for the following items: winter coats, hats, gloves, scarves, toiletries and baby essentials such as wipes and diapers.

They are also in need of volunteers for their next sorting event on January 20th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

LICH also offers annual events that you can become involved with such as their “Have a Heart for the Homeless” Candlelight Vigil (scheduled for April 10th, 2018), their Homeless Count and their Backpack Pirates and Supply for our Students events. Their annual Homeless Count Event occurs each January, and is a time when trained volunteers go out across the island to coordinate point-in-time counts of sheltered and unsheltered men, women and children.

During this time, they also distribute toiletry kits, sleeping bags and other essential items to the homeless.

If you are someone who is interested in volunteering with, donating to or becoming a member of this organization, please contact Cindy Brahms at Boutique@ AddressTheHomeless. org or at 631.464.4314, extension 122.

To learn more about LICH, please visit their website at www.

Longwood High School seniors Hunter Potteiger and Jake Murphy are recipients of The New York State Association of Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance (NYSAHPERD) Suffolk Zone Award.

The Suffolk Zone of the NYSAHPERD honors one young man and one

young woman from the graduating class of every district in Suffolk County each year. The students received their medal and certificate at the awards dinner on Wednesday, December 6th, 2017, at the Hyatt Regency Wind Watch in Hauppauge.

The concept of dropping a ball to mark time dates back to the mid-1800s in England. One of the earliest time-balls was the one atop the Flamsteed House of the Greenwich Observatory along the River Thames. Starting in 1833, it was lowered every day at exactly 1 p.m. to signal the time to sailors and Londoners who could not afford clocks and watches.

The Times Square ball has been dropping since 1907

And so, we begin again. The slate has been wiped clean, for now. There is always carryover, damage to be repaired and turmoil to be calmed. Life is like that, for better or worse.

As much as a new year cannot undo the happenings of the year prior, each new day is an opportunity for a fresh start of sorts; each hour, each minute even. We have only to forge ahead, to take these chances as they are presented to us.

May we all carry this sentiment with us into 2018… and, if you do happen to have a neatly categorized list of goals for the year, give it a glance from time to time; make adjustments as needed, and keep moving forward.

That, in itself, is a resolution everyone can get behind.

As part of a cross-grade level initiative called the Buddy Program, Edna Louise Spear Elementary School fifth-grade students in Christine Wicks’ class have been sharing their love of learning with the kindergarten students in Melissa Martin’s class.

Most recently, they combined their English language arts skills to draft letters to Santa as part of the Macy’s Make-A-Wish letter campaign, which donates $1 to the Make-A-

Wish Foundation for every letter it receives.

The older students made a template of a letter and encouraged the younger ones to fill in the words, helping them to sound out letters and assisting them with spelling and ideas for the content.

The two teachers have partnered for close to a decade on having their classes work together and have both seen growth in the school’s program with other classes partnering

and more importantly the friendships that are formed and endure throughout the school year.

According to Wicks, together the students experience the skills of communication as the older students learn patience and perseverance and the younger ones are being helped with spelling and sentence structure, a twofold positive outcome for learning.

conversations, the pair shared how Main Street was officially designated

by New York State as part of the Washington Spy Trail – well-known locally as the Culper Spy Ring – and considered America’s first espionage group. Additionally, they shared information about the centuries-old Roe House, which displays a letter from Washington thanking the members of the Spy Ring and a map that details the trail they traveled to send messages

from Connecticut across the Long Island Sound into Port Jefferson and then into Manhattan.

“The students are learning about this time period during class and had the unique opportunity to connect textbook learning to an authentic, interactive experience allowing for the synthesis of knowledge,” said seventh-grade teacher Monica Consalvo, who organized the learning program.

Realistic Fiction

SUFFOLK ZONE 6 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 3, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

As part of their English language arts curriculum, students in Carleen Parmegiani’s second-grade class at Edna Louise Spear Elementary School in the Port Jefferson School District have written and illustrated Realistic Fiction books. They have been learning about the genre, in which stories may resemble real-life occurrences and fictional characters may act or react similarly to actual people.

To celebrate their published pieces, they hosted a Holiday Book

Shop to read and answer questions about their writing process. As guests stopped by their desks, they fluently read their stories and followed up by asking two questions such as – “how did you like my book?” or “what was your favorite part?” – to help them with feedback on their work. They also shared their creative process including why they chose a character’s name or if they mirrored their setting or plots on real-life events.

Student Nina Gnatenko

used some exceptional language in her story including “mechanic,” “unsure,” “excitedly” and “demanded,” words she learned by listening closely to conversations as research for her story.

Family members were encouraged to attend the Holiday Book Shop where each student had 10 copies of their books printed that could be “purchased” for holiday gift giving with coupons presented to the guests.

Suffolk Zone Winners Earl L. Vandermeulen High School seniors Connor Kaminska and Luigia Than were each named 2017 Suffolk Zone award winners by the New York State Association of Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance. This award is presented annually to the top female and male senior physical education leaders in each Suffolk County high school.

According to Dr.

Danielle Turner, the district’s director of health, physical education and athletics, the pair were chosen by their physical education teachers for their outstanding character, leadership skills in schoolwide as well as physical education and health class activities, positive attitude toward instructional activities, scholastic achievements and being role models for their peers.

“These students were chosen by the physical education staff not only because of their performance and leadership in class, but also because of their academic accomplishments and their contributions to their community,” said Turner.

“Connor and Luigia represent the best of the best, and we couldn’t be prouder of their accomplishments.”

Fashion Donation Continued From 4 that we talk about,” Serota said. “We discuss the decade they’re from and what the lasting influences are and now we have this collection here.”

Students were on hand to help dress the mannequin. The pride and wonder they felt upon having a tangible class lesson come to life in their hands was palpable.

“I think it’s very cool to see pieces that we’ve seen in class come alive, and actually be able to hold them and dress the mannequins,”

example, the Burberry jacket. I could wear that right now on an everyday basis. I can see how it could sell just the same today. Just because of the brand Burberry.”

Solorzano considered a sequined dress. “What’s coming back are the puff shoulders in certain styles– not evening gowns, but on certain things like blazers.”

Students agreed that no other fashion programs that they could have applied to would have given them the same kind of experience.

( N A P S ) — Osteoporosis—bone loss— is a serious condition that half of all women and many men can expect to develop at some time in their lives.

Fortunately, it can be detected and treated. In fact, women who have a bone density scan have 35 percent fewer hip fractures

than those who do not.

The problem is only 23 percent of eligible patients are scanned. The experts at the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) say that if you’re a woman over 65 or a man over 70 or if you’re over 50, postmenopausal and have risk factors for osteoporosis, you should

probably talk to your doctor or other health care provider about getting a bone density test, especially if you’ve never had one. Many doctors are learning more about this testing device at www. hologic.com.

option to travel to the city to go to FIT, but I chose to stay home and go to LIU,” Solorzano said. “And I say to my parents on almost an everyday basis that little did I know how awesome a program Professor Serota has for us. It’s not just for learning in the classroom but for outside experiences. And her experience in the business makes her so hands-on.

You couldn’t get that from anybody else. She doesn’t teach you from books.

She teaches you from experience.”

Being in close proximity to and having business

relationships with Herschliefer’s and the Americana Manhasset mall has offered them opportunities to experience hands-on experiential learning.

During the semester, they have gone into showrooms, into a trend forecaster, Mood fabrics, and more.

“We went to see Philip Lim,” said Perez. “We got to see his showroom.

They us his past runway season and how he’s trying to be environmentally conscience about what he does. It was very cool, the entire atmosphere.”

“The whole experience – I would say was like a step-by-step for how production takes place for creating a design,” said Solorzano. “It’s like learning a chapter through an experience and talking to people in the industry.

We met girls who are probably not so far from our age who have these jobs, who are working for Philip Lim and other brands and getting higher promotions. It’s inspiring to see girls just like us, getting out of college and getting jobs like that. It makes it feel achievable.”

Caring For Granite Countertops (NAPSI)—Granite countertops are the most popular option available when it comes to kitchen or bathroom remodeling.

They look great, they’re durable, but they can also cost thousands of dollars.

Granite requires special care and attention because it’s a natural stone. Here are a few tips to help you protect your investment: • Seal your countertops: According to the Marble Institute of America, an industry group, granite countertops should be sealed so that the stone is more resistant to dirt and spills. Check with the manufacturer or retailer about the best kind of sealer to use on food preparation areas.

• Be careful what

you clean with: Never use ammonia—based products-or cleaners containing vinegar, lemon or orange—on your granite countertops. Avoid abrasive cleaners such as dry or soft cleansers. Don’t use cleaning products that contain acid such as bathroom, grout, or tub and tile cleaners. Specialty granite cleaners can be used, but they can be expensive. There’s a way to stretch your dollars.

• Mind your budget: JAWS Glass & Hard Surface Cleaner (www.jawscleans. com) cleans granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, glass and even your flat-screen TV. It’s also non-toxic and costs less than most other cleaners because each

“Especially the fact that they are such important pieces from designers that we’ve already learned about.”

The pieces ranged from formal gowns from Yves Saint Laurent to cutting edge pieces from the father of haute couture Jacques Fath to iconic pieces, like a Burberry trench coat.

“It’s also revolutionary the ways everything changes from one era to the next,” said Fashion Merchandising student Judith Solorzano. “For

JAWS product is actually two bottles in one. (The cartridge refill is attached to the bottle.)

There are also some other basic preventive measures you can take to protect your granite countertops: • Use coasters: Place a coaster under all glasses, particularly those containing alcohol or citrus juices that can etch or dull the surface of many stone countertops.

• Use trivets or mats: They’ll protect your granite countertop from hot dishes and help avoid scratches.

Granite countertops can really add spark to a kitchen or bathroom.

Proper care will keep them looking beautiful.

Spreading Holiday Cheer Second-grade students from Connetquot Central School District’s Sycamore Avenue Elementary School recently brought some holiday cheer to the residents at the Arbors Assisted Living Community at Bohemia.

Sycamore Avenue Elementary School music teacher Rachel White,

along with second-grade teachers, led the excited and cheerful students as they sang holiday songs to the residents.

“The students played their instruments, and taught the residents how to play along,” said Mrs. White. “Before leaving, each child introduced themselves to a new

‘grandfriend’, and gave them an ornament they had made in art class.”

Before wishing the residents a happy holiday season, the students dropped off more than 400 letters they had addressed to Santa in a designated bin in the front lobby which read “Letters to Santa.”

The American Red Cross and its Home Fire Campaign partners are asking everyone across the country to take the following two simple steps to help decrease the risk of home fires and save lives: 1. Create and practice your 2-minute drill.

Have at least two ways to escape from every room.

Select an outside meeting spot at a safe distance

where family members can meet. Discuss the plan with everyone in the household and practice it until everyone can escape in less than two minutes.

Conduct practice drills at least twice a year.

2. Install and maintain smoke alarms. Working smoke alarms halve your risk of dying in a home fire.

Put them on every level of your home, including inside and outside bedrooms. Test the alarms monthly and change the batteries when needed.

Never disable a smoke alarm. Teach children what an alarm sounds like and what to do if they hear one.

For a Home Fire Safety Checklist and worksheets to create your 2-minute drill go to redcross.org/fire.

You can also download, for free, the Red Cross Emergency App for instant access to home fire safety tips and the Monster Guard App for an interactive game that teaches children about home fire safety and prevention at redcross.org/ apps.

(NAPSI)—Running can seem like a daunting workout no matter your age. It takes an impressive amount of dedication to run long distances. If you are interested in running and improving your health, SilverSneakers offers the following tips: • Talk with your doctor: You’re never too old to start running, but it’s always good to check with your doctor before beginning a new exercise routine.

• Get the proper gear: SPREADING HOLIDAY CHEER - Second-grade students from Connetquot Central Invest in a good pair of School District’s Sycamore Avenue Elementary School spread holiday cheer through shoes. Consider getting the gift of music during their recent visit to the Arbors Assisted Living Community at fitted at an athletic store to Bohemia. Photo courtesy of: Connetquot Central School District/Joe Maniaci keep your feet comfortable.

• Start slow: Start with brisk walks and then slowly transition to running.

Running for one minute, then walking for one minute is a great way to build stamina.

• Set manageable goals: Take it easy at first and listen to your body. If running a longer distance is your goal, work up to it gradually—walking for a few weeks, then intervals of jogging and walking.

Before you know it, you’ll be running with ease.

• Don’t skip the cooldown: Always cool down with a slow walk and lots of stretching to reduce

recovery time.

SilverSneakers partners with more than 13,000 participating fitness locations and wellness centers, giving members access to the site’s basic amenities, including weights, treadmills, pools, etc., as well as specialized SilverSneakers exercise classes led by certified SilverSneakers instructors. The program is offered at no additional charge through the nation’s leading Medicare Advantage plans, Medicare Supplement carriers and group retiree plans.

Take Heart With Tea An apple a day may keep the doctor away, but a recent study found drinking tea might keep the cardiologist at bay.

The USDA reported that men and women who drank black tea for three weeks reduced their total and bad

cholesterol (LDL) levels by an average of 7.5 percent.

Researchers concluded that drinking tea may reduce the

risk of coronary heart disease.

Antioxidants called flavonoids, found in both green and black teas, are thought to

be potent weapons in the fight against heart disease.

That news may be especially important

for women, given that heart disease kills more women than all forms of cancer combined including breast cancer.

Signs Of Unsafe Driving In Older Adults (NAPSI)—The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that there are more than 38 million drivers age 65 and older.

Age is not the only factor that can impact driving abilities, but it is an important one. There is evidence that most people experience age-related

declines in physical and mental abilities. These changes—which can affect everything from vision to how quickly you can make decisions—influence how well you can drive.

They can also be difficult to address for yourself or with older people you know, since driving often represents freedom,

independence and control.

But transitioning from driving doesn’t mean you have to lose these things.

Your health care providers or Area Agency on Aging (www.eldercare.gov) can point you toward a range of transportation alternatives in the community. The first step toward finding those tools is recognizing when

you might need them.

Signs that an Older Adult’s Driving Skills Need Testing So how do you know whether you or an older adult you know is developing difficulties as a driver? These issues can be warning signs that suggest that an older driver may need to be tested or

evaluated: • Getting lost in familiar areas • Ignoring traffic signs and signals • Becoming easily agitated or angered • Falling asleep or being unable to concentrate when driving • Reacting too slowly to dangerous situations

• Forgetting or ignoring driving basics (like yielding to the right of way) • Having trouble judging distances.

With Purchase of 1 Year Membership. New Members Only When You Mention South Bay's Neighbor Newspapers. Offer Exp. 1/15/18

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.
