boredom. The researchers behind the study concluded that the existing research is insufficient to draw any firm conclusions regarding the effects of certain types of leisure activities on the risk for dementia and cognitive decline, though they did note that multi-domain cognitive training has the potential to improve cognitive function in healthy older adults and slow decline in affected individuals. A multi-domain approach to cognitive training involves memory, reasoning, problemsolving, and map reading, among other activities. Aging adults who embrace activities that require the use of such skills may find that they’re not only finding stimulating ways to fill their free time, but increasing their chances of long-term cognitive health as well.

Leisure activities may be widely viewed as fun ways to fill up free time, but the benefits of leisure activities extend beyond beating boredom. A 2011 analysis published in the journal BBA Molecular Basis of Disease found that leisure activities have a positive impact on cognitive function and dementia. The analysis, conducted by researchers with the Aging Research Center in Stockholm who examined various studies regarding the relationship between certain activities and cognitive function, defined leisure activity as the voluntary use of free time for activities outside the home. After retirement, leisure time constitutes a large part of many retirees’ lives, and finding ways to fill that time is more beneficial than merely avoiding

“… a clarion and richly-colored voice with a mellow, saxophone-like timbre...”

“He’s a guy whom you suspect doesn’t take himself too seriously… with a smooth delivery and buckets of charm that created instant rapport with the crowd…”

“ …the format requires considerable versatility… Sal Viviano is exceptional in this regard; he’s a charming comic presence throughout . . . “

“With a rich romantic fervor, Sal Viviano possesses a beguiling subtlety, and an almost serene dignity that could be his trademark . . .”

“Throughout the evening, Viviano skillfully demonstrated that the STANDARDS are sublimely within his wheelhouse…"

In one hit song after another, Sal Viviano pays tribute to the legendary style and romantic musical gifts that “Ol’ Blue Eyes” gave to us all.

It has been my upmost honor and privilege to serve as your Suffolk County Legislator for the last 12 years. As your Legislator, I made it my mission to bolster our public safety resources, bring fiscal responsibility back to Suffolk County, protect and improve our County’s great parks, ensure the economic and environmental recovery of our South Shore, and so much more. Today, thanks to your support, I proudly feel that I have left Suffolk County in a better place than I found it. I cannot express my gratitude enough for the opportunity to represent the residents of one of New York’s largest and most populous counties. These efforts would not have been possible if not for the tremendous strength and support of our community. Thank you!

• Do not eat too close

to bedtime. A recent study published in the Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics found that eating more of a day’s total energy intake in the evening is associated with a higher risk of being overweight or obese. The researchers behind the study concluded that eating more of the day’s energy intake at midday can lower the risk of being overweight or obese. Individuals are more likely to stay the course when they see positive results, so try to eat dinner several hours before bedtime and resist the urge to snack after dinnertime.

Cutting out indulgent foods may seem appropriate, but such an approach could make you miserable, and a diet that sparks feelings of misery will prove harder to commit to than one that allows for the occasional indulgence. Moderation is the name of the game, and that should be a rule of thumb for both healthy foods and indulgences. Don’t make indulgences part of your daily routine, even if you eat them in moderation. Rather, save treats for special occasions, and even then only eat them in moderation.

• Treat yourself, but only periodically. It’s unreasonable and potentially counterproductive to avoid foods seen as treats completely.

• Consider eating less, but more frequently. Data is conflicting regarding eating smaller but more frequent meals. A study published in

the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics found that individuals with six or more eating occasions in 24 hours had a lower mean body mass index than those with four or fewer eating occasions in 24 hours. The researchers behind the study concluded that eating a larger number of small

meals throughout the day may be associated with improved diet quality and lower BMI. This approach is commonly referred to as “grazing,” and some research has indicated it has no metabolic advantage over other approaches to eating. So what to make of the mixed results? Dieters can

decide for themselves and eat more frequent but smaller, healthier meals to combat hunger pangs that can arise when switching to a new diet. If hunger no longer poses a threat that can derail your diet, then this approach might increase the chances you stay committed to eating right.

The dawn of a new year marks a great time to turn over a new leaf. Many people begin a new year by making resolutions, and aspiring to eat healthier is annually among the most popular pledges healthconscious individuals make. A recent Statista survey of hundreds of people across the globe found that eating healthier was the second most popular New Year’s resolution of 2024. 50 percent of respondents indicated they set goals to eat healthier in the year ahead. Though each year is different, it’s fair to assume a similarly large percentage of resolutionminded individuals will aspire to eat healthier over the next 12 months. As people begin their journeys to a healthier lifestyle, they can consider these strategies to stay the course with a new diet.

Tips To Stay The Course With A New Diet

Town Of Babylon’s Toys For Tots Drive Most Successful In Years The Town of Babylon partnered with the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots program this holiday season in what became the most successful toy drive the Town has held in years. The initiative united residents, local organizations, and volunteers with a shared mission of bringing joy and hope to children throughout the community during the holiday season. Town officials expressed their appreciation to the many individuals, families, employees, and community groups whose generous donations made the effort possible. Special recognition was given to the Babylon

Bocce Club, which organized and hosted a large-scale toy drive last month, contributing significantly to the program’s overall success. “This is what community is all about,” said Councilman Terence McSweeney. “When residents, local organizations, and partners like the U.S. Marine Corps come together, we can truly make a difference for families and children who need it most.” Councilman and Veterans Chairman DuWayne Gregory highlighted the importance of the program and its service connection, noting, “Toys for Tots

reflects the very best of compassion, service, and community spirit. Our veterans and active-duty Marines understand the meaning of giving back, and the overwhelming response from Babylon residents speaks volumes about the strength and generosity of this town.” Due to the strong participation and community support, this year’s Toys for Tots drive exceeded expectations, further reinforcing the Town of Babylon’s longstanding commitment to service, volunteerism, and caring for its residents during the holiday season.

Town Of Babylon Planning & Building Department To Launch New Online Application System Through OpenGov In 2026 The Town of Babylon recently announced that its Planning and Building Department will transition to OpenGov, a modern online permitting and application platform designed to streamline how residents, contractors, and businesses submit and track applications. The new system— launching in February 2026— will provide a more accessible, transparent, and user-friendly experience. Beginning February 1, 2026, all building zoning, planning, rental, and accessory apartment applications must be submitted electronically through OpenGov. The online portal will allow users to complete applications anytime, from anywhere, and follow each step of their review process in real time. The system will also accept online credit card payments. To ensure a smooth transition, the Planning and Building Department, including zoning, rental and accessory apartment

divisions, will pause accepting applications from January 28 through February 1, 2026 while the migration to OpenGov is finalized. During the month of February, the zoning, planning, rental and accessory apartment review boards will not meet as staff completes onboarding and transitioning. “This modernization is a major step forward for our residents, homeowners, and business community,” Supervisor Rich Schaffer said. “By bringing the Planning and Building Department onto OpenGov, we are making the application process more efficient, more transparent, and far more convenient. This upgrade ensures that Babylon continues providing responsive, 21st-century service to everyone who calls our town home.” Detailed instructions and tutorials will be available to assist applicants in navigating the new system.

The Babylon Breast Cancer Coalition (BBCC) was one of three local breast cancer charities (BBCC, Lucia’s Angels and North Fork Breast Health Coalition) that received grants from The Peconic River Sportsman’s Club (The Club). The Club, located in Manorville, hosted a luncheon and presented checks to each organization. The Club raised over $68,000 for the organizations this year and is over $400,000 in total after eleven years of hosting this important fundraiser, “Take a Shot at Cancer.” In addition, The Club also hosts other shooting events for the women currently being treated for breast or gynecological cancer, giving them a day away from thinking about cancer and treatment.
