January’s Charity of the Month is: PBS Community Foundation

individuals, their families and the people who support them. Instruction about important procedures and protocols for before, during and after a disaster will be presented. This training is being reintroduced by popular demand and will be offered in Suffolk County in March and in Nassau County in April. In order to run these classes, the foundation is asking for donations of first aid kits, monetary donations (to cover the cost of class materials) supplies, as well as donations of space for other classes to be held around Long Island. Additionally, The Nature Experience is a new PBS Community Foundation class that was introduced last year. This course has enriched the lives of many self-directed individuals through learning about and having contact with the natural world. Enrollees gain knowledge about the animals that can be found living in and around Caleb Smith State Park/Nature Preserve, located in Smithtown. The Nature Experience provides an all-inclusive social environment, where friendships can develop through shared interests and experiences. The instructor, Jordan Ofgang, is a certified K-12 Special Educator and a life-long resident of Long Island. He is also an avid nature lover and explorer! Jordan leads the group weekly for the following: a lesson on one or more animals, a mindful hike focusing on the lesson content and nature safety, a wrap-up for group discussion, social time and snacks. These popular classes, and more, are made possible through the generous donations of individuals, businesses and the community at large that share the goals and mission of the PBS Community Foundation. Anyone who is interested in learning more about this foundation and their initiatives can visit their website at www. pbscommunityfoundation.org for more information/to view calendar of events or you can contact Ruth-Ann Hartney at info@pbscommunityfoundation.org!

Paying For Repairs (NAPSI)—The next time you need to fix your car, you’ll be better able to find the best price if you follow these four easy tips: 1. Get multiple repair quotes. For the more expensive maintenance and repairs, it can pay to call around to find the best price. 2. Look for exclusive offers and discounts from dealers and independent service shops. 3. Read customer reviews. A service shop with good prices but bad reviews may not be the best choice. 4. Look up repair estimates for the area on your smartphone using free apps such as myCarfax.com.

The PBS Community Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, was established to help people with autism spectrum disorders, developmental disabilities and other special needs. They particularly focus on selfdetermination and full inclusion in the local community. Now more than ever, individuals with disabilities are seeking the opportunity to stay in their own communities and pursue their personal goals, while receiving the needed levels of support to make full community inclusion a sustainable reality. In New York State, anyone who is eligible for OPWDD Services (NYS Office For People With Developmental Disabilities) and enrolled in the Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Waiver, can choose to self-direct their services. Self-direction is a person-centered approach that empowers individuals with developmental disabilities to create a life plan with support that they chose, based on their unique strengths, needs and goals. It also gives the individual more control over how funding is used to purchase needed support and services. While the number of individuals choosing to self-direct their services is quickly growing, the PBS Community Foundation aims to provide support through grass roots, community based networks. In addition to some of this foundation’s initiatives: Big Time Glee, Nassau Voice, The Crafting Connection and Mid-Week Meetups, they also offer workshops and classes based on the interests and needs expressed by individuals in their self-directed community… one being their Emergency Preparedness Training. This training seeks to assist young adult and adult individuals that are selfdetermined and living in their community to develop a plan for staying safe. In light of what many of us experienced as a result of Super Storm Sandy, it has become evident that we are not all fully prepared for being evacuated, living without electricity or living without cell phone communication. Many were traumatized because of the changes made to their everyday life. The Emergency Preparedness Training/Workshops are comprehensive and based on California’s Feeling Safe, Being Safe program. The program is appropriate for all self-determined

Northside Elementary School kicked off their Pick A Reading Partner (PARP) program at a school-wide assembly on Monday, January 14, 2019. This year’s theme is Reading Gives You The Wings to Fly. The assembly began with the Northside chorus leading the entire student body to sing “A Book Can Make You Fly,” written by music teacher Christina Cinnamo with the music from “I Believe I Can Fly.”

Some of you may have read a recent article that ran in South Bay’s Neighbor titled, My Journey with Anxiety, written by yours truly. The article was an essay that featured an excerpt of my book, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a Life Unhinged and on the Record. In the article, I chronicle a time in my life, during the summer of 2012, when I suffered from especially severe bouts of anxiety and panic attacks. Since touring with my book, doing press and speaking engagements, I transformed into an advocate for mental health as I learned some of the statistics surrounding anxiety disorders. For example, I was shocked to learn that 40 million Americans have experienced (or will experience) some form of anxiety disorder in their lifetime. My initial shock at that statistic was largely due to the fact that for so many years I had felt alone with

this disorder, and I carried some degree of shame. After my book was released, I became fearless about sharing my experiences with anxiety and panic. Once I put my story out into the world, the shame and embarrassment seemed to dissolve as if by magic. I eventually healed from that acute bout of anxiety through a series of shifts I made in my life, including: talk therapy, spiritual studies, writing, speaking, dietary changes, and so forth. We all need to be physically, emotionally and spiritually fortified in order to become and stay healthy. That includes our mental health. As I revealed my truth to friends, acquaintances, family members and countless strangers, the most amazing thing happened. People began to direct message me on social media, call or email me to thank me for sharing my story. They also confessed their own experience with anxiety, phobias, depression and panic attacks. It made me glad to know that my book and my story helped people, but I never could have imagined that people I thought I knew

were telling me these stories. You really never know what someone is going through in their inner world. After my article, My Journey with Anxiety ran in South Bay’s Neighbor (for some of you, it may be in this issue you are holding in your hands) one by one, a few co-workers came over to my desk, and as if to say, “This is just between you and me, because you get it,” shared their own experiences with severe anxiety and panic attacks. What I have come to realize is that by sharing my truth, I gave permission for others to share theirs. The unspoken conspiracy of silence is then broken. People feel safe to share their most intimate and sometimes painful life experiences with you when they see that you have shared your own. When you share your truth, you give, both, yourself and others such a wonderful gift. You not only liberate yourself; you liberate other people to feel safe sharing their truth.

Valentine's Day

PSEG’s Paws For a Cause PSEG Long Island President and COO Daniel Eichhorn recently volunteered as a judge for the “Paws for a Cause” doggie fashion show. The event at the YMCA Boulton Center for the Performing Arts in Bay Shore benefitted the L.I. Against Domestic Violence group. It raised awareness and more than $10,000 to support domestic violence victims and their abused and misplaced pets. Nearly three dozen decked out pups strutted their “era-inspired” outfits to win a variety of prizes and titles such as “best human and pet duo,” “most original costume,” “best celebrity look-a-like,” “most glamorous,” and more. There was also an adoption meet-and-greet

hosted by the Islip Animal Shelter. “No one should ever have to choose between their own safety and the safety of their beloved pet,” said Suzanne Brienza, PSEG Long Island director of meter services/Paws for a Cause judge. “It was great fun to judge these incredibly creative costumes for such a good cause, and to see the crowd’s enthusiasm.” “PSEG Long Island is committed to supporting causes and issues that our customers care about,” said Eichhorn. “Whether it’s raising awareness about domestic violence, rolling up our sleeves to build a home or delivering meals to vulnerable seniors, last year PSEG Long Island employees logged nearly

25,000 volunteer hours and we’re on track to do even more this year. That’s PSEG Long Island pride.” PSEG Long Island is committed to giving back to the people and communities it serves. Employee engagement on Long Island and the Rockaways is a top priority for the company. PSEG Long Island employees are actively involved with local charity events and organizations through the company’s Community Partnership Program. In 2017, PSEG Long Island participated in 1,100 events supporting more than 400 organizations. For more information, visit www.psegliny.com/ page.cfm/Community.

This year, the Farmingdale School District implemented an elementary school initiative to get K-5 students moving in the classroom during their learning time. A committee of teachers, administrators, board of education members, and the district’s athletic director worked together to design a curriculum

that would incorporate “healthy-mind healthybody” habits into everyday lesson plans—and it’s proving to be a great success! A list of interactive games and academic activities were devised by the committee for elementary school teachers to use at their discretion, depending on their day and lesson plan. Many of

Movement and Mindfulness the classroom activities are timed to tie-in with the district’s physical education units. The initiative gets children out from behind their desks to engage in math, spelling, science, and motor skill activities.

Vivica A. Fox Talks

Womanhood & Hollywood By Allison Kugel Kind, conscientious, courageous and refreshingly candid, Ms. Vivica A. Fox has proven that as Hollywood careers go, second acts are often the sweetest. The multi-hyphenate actress-beauty entrepreneur-author is embracing life and not looking back, except to pull from her well of wisdom for her memoir, Every Day I’m Hustling. Allison Kugel: When are you Angie and when are you Vivica? When do you take off the Vivica and become Angie from Indianapolis? Vivica A. Fox: Well first off, that’s Angie Fox from 38th and Emerson in Indianapolis (laughs)! I’m Vivica Fox when I hit that red carpet and I’m ready to slay the game. That’s what I do. But I love that I have in my life, and in my journey, learned when to be Angie Fox. And that’s mainly when I’m with my family, time off, hanging out with my godchildren, having my Me Time and learning to take some Me Time. That’s when I’m no makeup, baseball cap, chilling and blending in.

do they live? That’s where I’m going! That’s what I want to do.” I made that decision during my senior year in high school. But I had to trick my mama (laughs), and tell her I was going to go to college in California. I did go to college, but I would be sneaking up to Hollywood and going to modeling agencies. I had a girlfriend who was an actress, and I used to read lines with her. She would say, “You’re pretty good at this, you should try it.”

anything else. It’s taken awhile, and that’s something I want to share with people. My book is a motivational memoir. I, too, have fallen down and had to figure out how to get back up and create new chapters for myself. I want to encourage, enlighten and inspire other people.

Allison Kugel: Your book is part memoir and part motivational guidebook for success. Tell me about your own mentor, or mentors…

Vivica A. Fox: It’s part of life. It’s going to happen. And it’s like you just asked, “Do you know that you’re sexy right now?” But do people also know that for the last few years, that’s what’s been going on in my life? I embraced it and I got in front of it. I didn’t let it define me or make me want to whittle away. I don’t know why with women, we can’t talk about our bodies and what we go through, share it with others, and not feel like we have to hide that from people. I’m sharing it, and I got in front of it and took care of myself. I really feel like it made me take good care of myself.

Vivica A. Fox: My mentor would have to be a good friend of mine, and my first acting coach, Sheila Wills. I’m her two daughters’ godmother. Sheila, I met when I was doing [the daytime soap opera] Generations. She took me under her wing, and she would work with me with auditions. I would go into those auditions and just nail them. I attribute my success to her.

FARMINGDALE - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 30, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Allison Kugel: Do you prefer yourself that way? Vivica A. Fox: Oh my gosh! To be honest with you, the older I’ve gotten, the more I prefer it. I work so much; I’ve been so blessed and so busy lately that I enjoy when I can have that Me Time. In fact, today I don’t have to be on. That’s what I really love about being with my godchildren. When they see me, I’m just G.G. or G-ma. G.G. stands for Gorgeous Godmother. G-ma, I don’t know where they got that one from, but I have five godchildren. Two of them call me G-ma and the other ones call me G.G. They like hanging with me. Not the drama or the glamour, they just want me. Allison Kugel: Coming from the Midwest, your father was a school administrator, your mother worked for a pharmaceutical company, so you really had no ties to entertainment or Los Angeles for that matter. What gave you that spark of courage to believe that you could become a successful actress? Vivica A. Fox: I was introduced to the world of fashion and modeling by Madame King, my late auntie. She had her own beauty salon back in the day. She was the first one to cut my hair and put me on a runway. I was kind of bitten by the bug at thirteen. From that point forward, I just fell in love with magazines and fashion. Then I went to go see Michael Jackson in concert, and Diana Ross in concert. I had never seen African Americans being so fabulous, and I was like, “Where

Allison Kugel: Why did you choose to share your journey with menopause in the book?

Allison Kugel: Let’s talk about motherhood. I know you have all these nieces and nephews, and godchildren. I feel like motherhood, meaning the energy of motherhood, is something that is innate in all women. We have a need to nurture. How does that energy express itself through you?

She would say, “Vivica, you’ve got to stay ready. You got to be ready. You’ve got to take care of yourself.” And people who inspired me to be who I am would be Diana Ross and Pam Grier. Allison Kugel: Do you know that you’re incredibly sexy? Is that something you’re aware of? Vivica A. Fox: Thank you! I appreciate that. Got to keep it tight and right, girl (laughs)! Allison Kugel: More so, now, than twenty years ago, in my opinion. Vivica A. Fox: Maybe because… No, not maybe! Because I am comfortable in my own skin. I’m very comfortable with me. I have embraced my womanhood through my pluses and my minuses. I’m good with me right now, so that’s what you’re seeing. My spirit is happy, more than

Vivica A. Fox: I’m Mama Bear all the time! I have a nurturing instinct and I think I get that from my mother. My mother always loved to take care of others. Still to this day, she doesn’t take as good care of herself, because she is always looking out for others. I got that quality from her. When I walk on a set, I’m always making sure that I speak to everyone, that I try to make people as comfortable as possible. In that way, I am very motherly. It’s just something in me, I like to look out for others. But the older I’ve gotten, I’ve learned to look out more for myself, as well. And I’ve learned a very important word: No. Allison Kugel: How do you define glamour and beauty? Vivica A. Fox: Someone who is a goddess, who just radiates confidence; someone who owns her moment, who seizes her moment. I believe that beauty radiates from the inside. Especially nowadays with these build-a-bodies, and everything is just makeup and fakeness in my opinion right now. It’s when you meet a person and they are a beautiful person, they radiate confidence and

kindness. I find beauty in a woman that has no makeup on, but she’s confident in her own skin and radiates kindness and does for others. To me, that’s beautiful. Allison Kugel: What do you think is the biggest misconception about success? Vivica A. Fox: That it’s easy. When you’re successful, usually it’s taken a long time to build a career. It isn’t something that happens overnight. It takes time to build a career, and a career means being able to go through different stages and chapters of a career, not just being the hot chick of the moment. For me, I went from being the hot ingenue chick, to now building my brand and producing and directing. Allison Kugel: Do you want Hollywood to be colorblind in writing and casting roles, or do you want to be identified, and cast, as an African American actress?

Allison Kugel: I know that God is speaking to me when… Vivica A. Fox: Woo! Hmm. All the time. Every day when I wake up and I can thank Him for letting me see another day. I would say, I know God is speaking to me all the time, and He helps me make better choices. Allison Kugel: My spiritual mission in this life is… Vivica A. Fox: To be kind, to do unto others and to leave a good mark. everything. That’s a success. Allison Kugel is an entertainment columnist, and author of the book, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a life unhinged and on the record. Follow her on Instagram @theallisonkugel and visit AllisonKugel.com.

Vivica A. Fox: Of course, I always want to be seen as a talented African American actress, because that’s who I am. I feel that right now, what’s going on in Hollywood is that, man, that glass ceiling has been busted wide open. It’s been a long time coming, with the success of Black Panther, with the success of television shows like Scandal and Empire and How to Get Away with Murder; with Oprah having her own network. It’s about damn time. Allison Kugel: Finish these sentences for me. I know I can trust someone when… Vivica A. Fox: When I’ve truly gotten to know them.

A number of teachers have also designed their own movement instructional classroom activities. At Northside Elementary School, fifthgrade teacher Regina Bates incorporated their school initiative—Northside’s Five Keys to Success (respect, kindness, honesty, perseverance, responsibility) into her ANNUAL ALUMNI DAY - Sitting: From left, Joseph Kovar, Binghamton University; kinesthetic approach to Siobhan Flanagan, SUNY Plattsburgh; Kayla McConnell, Penn State; Keith Jones, teaching.

to share their academic, social and overall experiences as college freshmen with members of the senior class. The event serves as an annual

representation. They came up with a disco pose for respect, a touch to the heart for kindness, a thumbs up for honesty, a muscle kiss for perseverance, and the floss dance move for responsibility. Her students love practicing the keys this way. “If they are engaged in the lesson, they are more likely to remember it,” said Ms. Bates. At Albany Avenue, first grade teacher Jacqueline Brown uses a tool called Go Noodle to keep her students engaged between subjects. Whenever her class needs an energy lift or a calming moment she streams a short video on her white board from the Go Noodle collection. This

RECIPES

Zucchini Pie

By Terry Rydzynski of Commack, New York All recipes are made with love, but when passed down through multiple generations, they carry tremendous meaning. South Bay’s own Terry Rydzynski loves to reminisce about her late Aunt Sally and the Zucchini Pie recipe that Sally passed down to her. “My Aunt Sally’s mother passed this recipe to my mother, who passed it on to me and my daughter,” shares Terry. “We make this dish on big holidays as an appetizer before the main course. I made my Zucchini Pie on Christmas for my twenty-five guests and people ask for it every year.” In remembering her beloved Aunt, Terry continues, “Aunt Sally is gone, but her recipe lives on in our family, year after year.”

How To Make Zucchini Pie Combine: 3 cups thinly sliced zucchini (you can also substitute asparagus) 1small chopped onion 1 cup of Bisquick mix 4 large eggs 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1/2 cup parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon parsley flakes (or 1/4 cup of finely chopped fresh parsley) salt and pepper to taste Mix all together, put mixture into a greased 12” baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for thirty-five minutes. Cut into two inch squares, serve and enjoy! Send your recipes to AllisonK@ SouthBaysNeighbor.com for a chance to have your recipe featured in an upcoming issue!

Hosting Farmingdale Librarians e-books, audio books, reading clubs, and more. “These sessions provided great synergy for us,” said sixth-grade reading teacher Merle Goess. “Librarians wants more children coming to the library, and we want to get more children reading.” Creating a literacy rich school environment is a top priority at Howitt

Middle School. All the reading teachers are actively working with the public library to help facilitate the signing up process for children eager to receive new library cards and/or renew expired cards. The children came up with some thoughtful questions during the sessions. They wanted to

know how long they could keep a book and about the procedure to renew it. The librarians brought some new titles for the children to consider reading, and taught them about the label system that helps them identify new and specific genres of books, so they can easily find what they’re interested in. Before the sessions

wrapped up, students were encouraged to suggest different programs they would like to see take place at the library. Among their recommendations were an emoji guessing game, a graphic novel book club, and a minute-to-win-it contest. The middle schoolers came away with the knowledge that the public

library isn’t just a building with a collection of books, but a new world of information and programs waiting to be discovered. The children were energized—and a little bit surprised— to learn that everything at the library was free! They left ready and exited to explore their library skills
