WEST ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY APRIL 8, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

North Shore Animal League America’s Adoption Center is currently conducting adoption by appointment only.

Our Adoption Team is contacting pre-approved adopters with a scheduled day and time to complete their adoption.

The health and wellbeing of NSALA staff, volunteers, adopters, and the community remains our priority at this time.

We currently have over 40 dogs of various ages and sizes on campus, as well as more than 100 felines, from kittens to older cats, all looking for loving homes.

As always, the animals on the NSALA Port Washington campus are being well-cared for by our devoted staff.

In addition to finding homes for more than 110 canines, some of whom were from our recent Mill Dog rescue (we saved 100 dogs and puppies from deplorable

conditions with some going to our area shelter partners,) we have also placed more than 30 animals into foster homes.

During this time, the Alex Lewyt Veterinary Medical Center will remain open to see sick patients and emergency cases only.

While we are doing adoptions by appointment, NSALA’s Adoption Center is temporarily closed to the general public in accordance with New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo’s statewide directives and to control the number of people in the Adoption Center at any one time.

If you are interested in fostering an animal, please visit: https:// www.animalleague.org/ get-involved/foster-careprogram/ We will continue to keep the public informed on our status through our website,

How Does The New Coronavirus Affect You And Your Pets?

Pet owners can rest easy that there is no reason to believe that dogs or cats in the United States might be a source of infection for the new coronavirus disease — COVID-19 — or cause its spread according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia.

And so far, according to the CDC, there have been no reports of pets becoming sick with COVID-19.

This coronavirus appears to be primarily transmitted from human to human. As a pet owner, you may have heard of canine coronavirus, an intestinal infection in dogs, especially puppies, and feline coronavirus, which can cause feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). These types of coronaviruses have been around for quite some time and are not associated with the current outbreak.

To protect yourself, your family, and possibly even

your pets, from this new coronavirus, you should follow these precautions: • Frequently wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water (use hand sanitizer with more than 60 percent alcohol if you can’t wash) • Avoid close contact with people who are sick—stay at least three feet away • Cover your mouth/ nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, then throw away the used tissues and wash your hands • Stay at home if you are sick • Sanitize often-used surfaces in your home and office If you do become sick with COVID-19, how then should you care for your pet? The CDC recommends that you restrict contact with pets and other animals just as you would with people. Ask another member of your

household to care for your pets while you are sick. If you must do it yourself, wash your hands before and after you interact and wear a facemask. The toughest part for pet lovers is that you must remember that you really should not be petting, snuggling, or sharing kisses or food with your pet!

Increased anxiety related to concerns about coronavirus (COVID-19) is causing periods of interrupted sleep or insomnia for some.

Catholic Health Services (CHS) experts offer tips on how to cope, saying getting the proper amount of sleep each night is vital to making sure your immune system is at peak performance.

They add, a good night’s sleep sharpens mental acuity and leads to reduced stress levels.

“During periods of high stress, it’s crucial to get sufficient sleep, because it can increase our chances of minimizing the impact of COVID-19 or other

Chicken With Matzo Dumplings Serves 4-6

For the broth: 1 leftover chicken carcass, all skin and fat removed 2 Spanish onions, 1 whole and unpeeled, the other peeled and chopped 1 leek, coarsely chopped 3 celery stalks, with leaves if possible, coarsely chopped 4 bay leaves

Chicken With Matzo Dumplings - This delicious recipe for “Chicken With Matzo Dumplings” can be enjoyed during Passover or throughout the year.

1 2 1 4 12

large spring of rosemary large sprigs of thyme large sprig of sage large sprigs of parsley white peppercorns

Note: You can use goodquality, low-salt kosher chicken stock cubes or bouillon powder, but the recipe above for homemade broth is recommended.

For the dumplings: 7 ounces medium matzo meal (about 8 matzo sheets, ground up) 3 eggs 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley 3 grindings of black pepper 2 pinches of salt First, make the broth.

Put the carcass in a large pot and cover with about 21⁄2 quarts of water. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Add the vegetables, herbs and peppercorns, return to a boil, cover and simmer for 1 hour. Strain, reserving the broth.

Make the dumplings by

mixing all the dumpling ingredients together, then knead until you have a smooth dough, adding a little water if necessary.

Cover and let rest for at least 3 hours.

Using your hands, form the mixture into balls the size of apricots.

To put it all together, bring the chicken broth up to simmering point.

Drop in the dumplings and continue simmering, covered, for 30 minutes.

If you don’t have a chicken carcass, boil a whole chicken for the soup and use the meat in other dishes. Traditionally, a boiling fowl from a kosher butcher would be used.

Health note: This is the famous “Jewish penicillin” beloved of every mother and grandmother. It’s not an old wives’ tale; there’s good scientific evidence that it contains vitamins, minerals and other natural chemicals that are antibacterial and immune-boosting.

In addition, nutrients and valuable plant chemicals are extracted from the vegetables and herbs during the cooking process, most of which end up as active ingredients in the finished soup.

Passover is a Jewish festival that commemorates the story of Exodus. In that story, ancient Israelites were freed from slavery in Egypt, and men, women and children of Jewish heritage celebrated that liberation during Passover, a seven or eight day festival that is one of the more widely observed Jewish holidays.

Passover celebrations begin on the 15th day of the Jewish month of Nisan.

That day typically falls in March or April of the Gregorian calendar. One of the symbols of Passover is matzo, an unleavened flatbread made from flour and water. Though matzo is an enduring symbol of Passover, that does not mean it cannot be enjoyed at other times of the year.

In fact, those who want to celebrate their Jewish heritage or even those who simply want to experience Jewish culture can enjoy matzo throughout the year. It’s even possible to get a little creative with matzo. Such is the case with the following recipe for “Chicken With Matzo Dumplings” from Michael van Straten’s “The Healthy Jewish Cookbook” (Frog, Ltd.). This delicious recipe can be a part of your Passover celebration or just a meal to sit down and enjoy with family and friends.

We are also doing our part to flatten the curve by doing what we can to protect our customers and staff.

WEST ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY APRIL 8, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

A MEMO FROM THE DIRECTOR TO OUR PATIENTS AND PROSPECTIVE PATIENTS We are all aware of the dangers of the Corona virus. We at Long Island Hearing would like to share with you what we are doing to protect our patients and staff.

We have always practiced and took extra effort in protecting everyone who enters our facilities. A number of weeks ago we stepped up our effort in sanitizing our waiting room multiple times during the day. Our consultation rooms are sanitized between each patient.

Now in current time, we have elevated our sanitizing yet to a higher and finer level. Door knobs, arm chairs, clip boards and yes pens are being sanitized for your and our protection. Additionally, we have altered our scheduling of patients so that no more than three (3) patients will be in the waiting room together. We Promise and Guarantee It. Also, for those who might be health compromised, or are just not comfortable being in space other than your home, we now offer basic service and cleanings of hearing instruments as a drive up service. Stay in your car…we’ll come out to you. Call us for appointment and details how this service works. We’re ‘hear’ to help.

Long Island Hearing is working hard to keep everyone “Safe in Our Space.” During this time, walk in patients (without appointments) may experience longer wait times. Appointments for all services (except supply sales, batteries, accessories), is strongly suggested.

Together we will make this difficult time, a thing of the past. Call us 1.800.698.5200. We are open.

Thank you for your continued support, William A. Kent, BC-HIS Director

support Island Harvest throughout the year,” said Daniel Eichhorn, president and COO, PSEG Long Island and Island Harvest board member. “During this difficult time, we are grateful that the PSEG Foundation is able to provide this grant to continue our support and help Island Harvest’s efforts.”

“Island Harvest Food Bank is grateful for the generous support of PSEG Long Island employees and the PSEG Foundation to help us increase our efforts to get much-needed food support to people in Nassau and Suffolk counties impacted by the coronavirus pandemic,” said Randi Shubin Dresner, president and CEO, Island Harvest Food Bank. “PSEG Long Island is a longtime, valued partner in our hunger-relief efforts, and their generosity will help us through some of the extraordinary roadblocks we are encountering, including purchasing large quantities of food to meet the demands during these uncertain times.”

The PSEG Foundation is a 501c3, not-for-profit organization that aims

to build sustainable and thriving communities by fostering equity, safety, and diversity and inclusion, as well as supporting the environment, education and workforce development in the communities we serve.

The PSEG Foundation provides grants to groups in communities served by PSEG and its subsidiaries; Foundation giving is separate and distinct from PSEG Long Island’s operational budget.

PSEG Long Island and the PSEG Foundation are supporting the Island Harvest Food Bank in its response to critical community needs throughout Long Island as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak.

The mission of Island Harvest Food Bank is to end hunger and reduce food waste on Long Island. The PSEG Foundation provided the Island Harvest Food Bank a grant of $45,000 to address rising food insecurity, including children who do not have access to school feeding programs because their schools are temporarily closed because of the public health crisis. Island Harvest Food Bank, which relies mostly on donations of surplus food by commercial food establishments, wholesalers, supermarkets, and individuals, has seen a decline in those donations recently. The grant will purchase food to ensure an uninterrupted supply for people who rely on supplemental feeding programs served by Island Harvest Food Bank.

Passover Celebration Passover is a celebration of the liberation of Jews from Egyptian slavery.

Along with Sukkot and Shavuot, Passover is one of the Three Pilgrimage Festivals that feature agricultural offerings and several unique mitzvot.

The seder, an elaborate meal that customarily takes place on the first night of the holiday, is

at the center of Passover celebrations.

According to ReformedJudaism. org, “seder” means “order” and refers to the 15 separate steps that are taken in traditional order as expressed in the book “Haggaddah.”

Blessing, washing, eating a vegetable, breaking of matzot, story telling, and many other components

comprise the seder. Other traditional symbols are featured on the seder plates and tables, each of which have specific ties to the Exodus and history of Jewish slavery. Passover is one of the most commonly observed Jewish holidays and a time to reflect on one’s blessings.

The Similarities Between Passover And Easter WEST ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY APRIL 8, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Finding Faith During Easter

To the casual observer, Passover and Easter may not seem to have much in common. While the two holidays are celebrated by people of different faiths, they share certain similarities. Both Passover and Easter celebrate fundamental tenets of their respective faiths. For Christians, Easter commemorates the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, a moment that has shaped the lives of faithful Christians ever since. During Passover, Jews honor a moment in history that helped free slaves from captivity and shape them into the people of Israel. In addition, historians believe that the Passion of Christ, which is the short final period of Jesus’ life, occurred during the observance of Pesach, or Passover. During this time, Jesus went to Jerusalem in response to a mandate to appear at the Temple. It also is believed that the Last Supper described in all four Gospels was likely a Passover seder. Liberation and rebirth also are at the heart of both holidays.

For many Christians, modern Easter celebrations would not be complete without bonnets, bunnies and colored eggs. As fun as those components can be, Christianity is at the heart of Easter, which is the most important date on the Christian religious calendar. Easter Sunday marks the culmination of events that shaped the beliefs and teachings of an entire faith.

Easter marks the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, which Christians believe occurred within days of his crucifixion and burial. The New Testament indicates that the Resurrection of Jesus is one of the chief tenets of the Christian faith and established Jesus as the Son of God. Easter is an example that God will righteously judge the world by sacrificing His son for the sins of others. And any person who chooses

to follow Jesus receives everlasting life thanks to Christ’s Resurrection.

Easter is linked to the Jewish celebration of Passover due to its proximity on the calendar and the fact that Jesus was Jewish. The Bible states that Jesus participated in the Passover meal during The Last Supper. At The Last Supper, Jesus identified the matzo (bread) and wine as his body and blood, soon to be sacrificed and shed.

Christians believe The Last Supper marked the first transubstantiation, or the turning of bread and wine into the actual substance of Christ’s body and blood.

This also was the first celebration of the Eucharist and Holy Mass that would become another core component of the Christian faith.

Easter is a time of great celebration that is preceded

by Lent, a weeklong period of reflection, prayer and

repentance.

The days immediately prior to Easter are commonly referred to as Holy Week. This encompasses Palm Sunday and lasts through Holy Thursday (the day of The Last Supper), Good Friday (when Jesus was crucified and placed in the tomb), and Holy Saturday (the 40-hour-long vigil that the followers of Jesus Christ held after his death and burial).

On Easter Sunday, four women, including Mary Magdalene, went to Christ’s tomb to anoint his body with spices and oils. They found the tomb was empty and were met with an angel who told them that Jesus had been raised from the dead. A biblical account in John 20:14-16 indicates that Mary Magdalene was the first to speak with the risen Jesus. She mistakes Jesus for a gardener and says to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.”

Jesus said to her, “Mary!”

She turned and said to him, “Rabboni!” In regard to his apostles Simon and Peter who were the first to see the risen Christ.

Easter is a time of joy and celebration, and a great opportunity for Christians to immerse themselves in their faith.
