Life-Saving Award Recipient Sea Tow Services International, the nation’s leading marine assistance organization, is proud to announce that Captain Les Trafford, owner of Sea Tow Shinnecock/Moriches in New York, was presented with a distinguished Life Saving Award from C-PORT (Conference of Professional Operators for Response Towing) and AFRAS (Association For Rescue At Sea) during the 27th C-PORT Conference. The national conference was held January 12th14th, 2014 in Clearwater Beach, Fla. Each year, AFRAS recognizes a deserving member of C-PORT who has shown exceptional skill and determination to save lives during a rescue incident in the maritime environment. Capt. Trafford was recognized for his actions on the afternoon of May 12, 2013, when he was notified

helicopter arrived on scene and commenced a search. While near the debris field, the helicopter crew located a person clinging to a lobster buoy one mile offshore to the east of the bar, and directed Capt. Trafford to the location for pickup. Demonstrating expert boat handling skills, determination and focus, Trafford quickly clipped a life ring to his towline, then maneuvered his boat to within 10 feet of the conscious deckhand and quickly pulled him on to his boat. Remaining focused, Trafford verified there were only two persons aboard the Pauline, and learned the boat’s captain never came out of the cabin when it was caught by a large following sea and immediately capsized. Trafford and the deckhand continued to search for the Pauline’s captain, but finished their

efforts when relieved by the Coast Guard. Sadly, the captain’s body later was recovered. Trafford returned the deckhand to shore and delivered him to a waiting ambulance. Capt. Trafford’s actions that day led directly to saving the deckhand’s life. “We’re proud of Capt. Trafford’s heroic lifesaving efforts last May and are delighted that he has received national recognition by receiving the AFRAS Life Saving Award,” said Capt. Joseph Frohnhoefer, CEO and Founder of Sea Tow Services International, Inc., the nation’s leading on-water assistance provider to boaters. “His dedication is an inspiration to all of us at Sea Tow, and serves as one more example of how the skills and professionalism of all our Captains are helping to make boating safer and more enjoyable for all.”

that a 45-foot trawler, the Pauline IV, had capsized on a sandbar in treacherous Shinnecock Inlet in Long Island, New York, with two persons aboard. Within 10 minutes, Capt. Trafford in his 24-foot Sea Tow boat arrived at the inlet. It was a bright, sunny and gusty day with winds blowing steadily from the southwest at 20 knots with higher gusts. Short-period 6- to 12-foot waves were battering the sandbar. As Trafford approached the bar, he expertly read the conditions, determined he could make it through the surf zone, and circled ocean-side and east of the bar to where the Pauline IV had capsized and was bottom-side-up, leaving a debris field. Remaining in deep water, Trafford searched the east side of the bar. He patiently scanned the debris field but did not locate survivors. A Suffolk County Police

Suffolk County hosted a professional development conference Friday, January 31st, for non-profit groups and other community organizations. The daylong conference, designed by the Suffolk County Office of Minority Affairs, provided training in such topics as event planning, leadership skills, virtual teams, fundraising, and cross-cultural communications. “This was a great opportunity for local organizations to strengthen their leadership and fundraising and event capabilities,” Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone said.

Dr. Karen Sobel Lojeski, a professor of engineering and applied science at Stony Brook University and the founder of the Virtual Distance Institute, was the keynote speaker. Other scheduled speakers include A. Brian Leander, assistant director of the Long Island Center for Nonprofit Leadership at Adelphi University; Sandra Dunn, program director of the Hagedorn Foundation, Chung Chi Chou of the Wellbrook Foundation, Lenore Paprocky, director of sales at Holiday Inn Express Stony Brook, Robert Wu, a Dale Carnegie trainer, David Newman, and executive director of

the Jewish Community Relations Council of Long Island. The event was sponsored in partnership with the Suffolk County AsianAmerican Advisory Board, Jewish Community Relations Council of Long Island, SUNY Stony Brook, Department of Technology and Society, College of Engineering, Dale Carnegie Training, Holiday Inn Express Stony Brook, Taiwanese American Association of Long Island and the Wellbrook Foundation, Inc. Approximately 50 organizations participated in the workshop.

If you want to play on the South Shore Hookers, you must also live within driving distance of East Islip, as we practice at Hecksher Park. Please feel free to e-mail me at tylercianciulli@ gmail.com if you have any questions or any interest in playing. We could always use a few new guys, so why not try something new? You may fall in love with rugby, just as I did.

friends. Playing on the field, I have developed a keen sense of peripheral vision. I have to be keenly aware of not only what’s in front of me, but also where my teammates are, and what everyone is doing on the field. I follow the same perspective in my academic studies. This helps me understand context, and has helped me solve challenging problems by looking beyond the obvious. The only setback that I have come across so far, is that we are lacking size. We have around fifteen or twenty guys, but we need twenty five to make a competitive

Craving Community Involvement

The first half of my school year has ended, and I have realized that I have started to crave more community involvement. To satisfy this urge to take part in more activities, I have begun to revive the South Shore Hookers Rugby Club. Essentially, for the past few seasons, this club has been defunct. Now, with the assistance of my brother and friends, I am striving to bring back a team that was once a staple of Suffolk County’s Rugby scene. Since I was a toddler, my father has taught me the basics of the sport, and I have taught my

Upon hearing that a friend in a neighboring district was participating in a holiday letterwriting program geared toward veterans, Islip High School senior Kylie Ohlmiller organized her own program at the high school. With the assistance of a few of their classroom teachers, Kylie and her classmates were able to write more than 100 letters, which were sent to the Long Island State Veterans Home at Stony

Brook. “I thought it was important to participate because not a lot of people recognize veterans as much as they should, especially around the holiday season,” explained Kylie when asked why she initiated the program. “Their bravery is admirable and I wanted them to know they were in our thoughts.” As a thank-you for participating in the program, Congressman Tim Bishop, whose office

organized the collection of holiday cards for veterans, sent a note of gratitude. “As a result of the participation of schools like yours, we were able to deliver over 8,000 cards to residents of the Long Island State Veterans Home at Stony Brook,” the congressman wrote. “Knowing that there were so many individuals who were thinking of them truly made the holiday season brighter for these veterans.”

Reading Inspiration Serving all of Long Island and New York City every day

Private Music Lessons In Your Home Taught By A Select Group Of Music Education Graduates

Preparing students at Connetquot Elementary for the Parents as Reading Partners program that began January 27th, author and educator Joe Shandrowski and his magical blue sea monster Huga Tuga brought the “Huga Tuga Live! A Pep Rally for Reading” interactive theater performance to the school on January 17th. The focus of the PTA-

sponsored event was on the importance of reading, using a colorful light show, cartoon illustrating and bubble magic as tools to inspire students to become confident readers and writers. The connection to imagination was also emphasized with Shandrowski’s “Treasure Chest of Imagination,” as the young readers in attendance learned about

the process that takes place when a book comes to life. “The Huga Tuga performing arts event was integrated with a unique literacy experience that entertained as well as educated our appreciative Connetquot audience,” said Principal Deborah Smith. Photo by: Greg Fasolino, Syntax

What Dreams May Come By: Jamie Lynn Ryan Do you dream? Better yet, do you remember these abstract visions once you awaken? Do they make any sense, or are they simply random collections of people in mystery places, moving wordlessly through your subconscious with no clear direction or purpose? I once took a class on the Philosophy of Dreams in college, where the sole objective was to keep a dream book and analyze its contents week-to-week, drawing conclusions from whatever images may have manifest themselves overnight.

To say there were many interesting – disturbing, even – discussions would be an understatement. And those were just the dreams my fellow students recalled! A dream is a wish your heart makes, or so the saying goes – but what of nightmares and other less desirable visions? What do they mean? Should any conclusions be drawn, or are they simply beyond the scope of human comprehension? And what of the dreams that fall into oblivion, never to be revisited again? I often find myself falling into and out of various

states of sleep, tossing and turning from one bizarre dream to the next, vaguely aware of the people and places surrounding me, but rarely discerning any viable plot from the whole scenario. The thing is, I rarely recall these visions by the time the new day dawns. There and gone, perhaps to be revisited at a later date. Or not. It’s a fairly exciting concept, when you stop and think of the mysterious majesty of it all – the subconscious, delving into the unconscious, and back again. Too deep? Brain on overload? Maybe it’s time for a little nap!

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone sends congratulations to local athletes who are participating in the XXII Olympic Winter Games. Among the estimated 2,500 athletes competing in the games in Sochi, Russia are: lugers Aidan Kelly of West Islip and Matt Mortensen of Huntington Station and skeleton slider John Daly of Smithtown. “We are proud to have such a strong contingent of Suffolk County residents who will represent their country on such an international stage,” Bellone said. “They have all worked hard to get where they are and deserve a great deal of credit for their achievements. We will all be rooting for them throughout the Olympics.” The Games, which open Friday in Sochi, Russia, run for two weeks.

Just A Cup Of Coffee

Send Us Your Best Pics To Be Featured

By: Bob Sinclair

After the loss of someone very close, those around us are caring and concerned, making every effort to shield us from the hurt, and try to lessen our heartbreak. But at times, it just takes a quiet moment with a special someone or discovering something, anything, offering comfort or some relief from the grief, loneliness and unbearable ache. The “something” could be as simple as the warmth of an old, somewhat worn and familiar cup filled with hot and inviting morning coffee.

ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 12, 2014 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

It appears as though each sip relieves some of the pain, even sharing the anguish while stirring emotions which, not surprisingly, leave you feeling a little drained and empty. It is not unusual to hold on and not let go just yet; it is okay to cradle the cup to your heart, cherishing your time together, and embracing some touching personal moments.

“Roll Out The Barrels” Photo by: Mike Missano, North Babylon

Adding a bit of sugar is a little reminder to reflect on those sweet times you shared in your life together, understanding that right now nothing seems quite right, nor appears to make any sense. As you stir your coffee, inhale the aroma and savor your memories, knowing the cup will soon be empty; and although there will always be an empty place in your heart, the images of the life you shared will gradually replace the sorrow. Listen to a sort of musical reminder as the spoon circles and brushes against the sides of the cup, and you will never forget that you will always cherish and embrace your old memories, while knowing the cup may empty today, but will fill with new memories each tomorrow. For now, just wake each morning with the thought “good morning sweetheart….let’s have a nice cup of coffee.” It’s OK!

Mock Newscast

After reading and collating details from Jim Morris’ nonfiction book The Rookie: The Incredible True Story Of A Man Who Never Gave Up On His Dream, freshmen in East Islip High School English teacher Greg Kguloian’s classroom worked together to create scripts to inform the class about what they

had learned from the book. The autobiographic work, published in 2002, tells the true story of Morris, who had a brief interlude of fame in 19992000 as Major League Baseball’s oldest rookie player in more than 40 years. Specific details from the Morris work and

page references provided evidence to support the students’ claims, in concordance with the Common Core State Standards. The English 9 class then performed the “Rookie” scripts as if the students were television newscasters, providing a heightened level of insight into the text.

The Gift Of Friendship Make this Valentine’s Day extra special for your family and give them the gift of friendship with a Fresh Air child! Each summer, over 4,000 inner-city children visit suburban, rural and small town communities across 13 states from Virginia to Maine and Canada through The Fresh Air Fund’s Volunteer Host Family Program. This summer, join volunteer host families in the Huntington, NY area who open their hearts and homes to New York City children. “We love sharing the wonders of lightening

bugs, playing in the backyard, and swimming with our Fresh Air friend!” says Liz, a Fresh Air host. Fresh Air children are boys and girls, from six to 18 years old, who live in New York City. Children on first-time visits are six to 12 years old and stay for one or two weeks. Children who are reinvited by host families may continue with The Fresh Air Fund through age 18 and can enjoy extended trips. Families find hosting so rewarding that more than 65 percent of all Fresh Air children are invited to visit the

same host families year after year. Through the eyes of Fresh Air children, families often rediscover the beauty of their own communities. The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, notfor-profit agency, has provided free summer experiences to more than 1.8 million New York City children from lowincome communities since 1877. For more information on hosting a Fresh Air child this summer, please contact Jacqueline Shapiro at 516.692.8662 or visit The Fresh Air Fund online at www.freshair.org.

Trade Fair Visit

East Islip High School’s International Business Globalization Career Academy was chosen this past fall to send six of the academy’s students on an educational trip to the German Practice Firm Trade Fair in Ulm, Germany, held from November 29th through December 6th. Dominick Barbato, Nicholas Barber, James Burke, Anthony Diesu, Aubrie Ruland and Christianna Wilbert were the very first group of Long Island students to ever travel to Europe to compete in this international fair. The East Islip business students gave a PowerPoint presentation for their virtual firm, VE Connected, which

was established by the students last September. “I am delighted to say that our six students were busy promoting their VE Connected firm while they were at the Trade Fair,” said Career Academy director Israel Malinowitzer. “They exceeded all expectations, selling more than $9 million in magazine and advertising sales for their company. This was the most revenue ever raised by any VE firm at a Trade Fair.” While in Germany, the six spent two nights at the home of a host family, where they began developing friendships with some of the German students who also participate in VE International. They were even asked to do a

second presentation at the host students’ high school. During the trip, the students also found time to visit the Black Forest and the manufacturing facility of prominent German sewing thread company Gütermann, meeting its CEO and touring the facilities. “This was an experience of a lifetime,” said Malinowitzer. “The students had a great time with their new friends, learning about their culture and family life. They have continued to communicate with their newfound German friends and hope to meet them in April when we attend the VE Trade Fair at the 69th Armory in Manhattan.”

Kindness Challenge During the annual Kindness and Justice Challenge, students and staff at Ruth C. Kinney Elementary School record any random acts of kindness and justice they perform over a 10day period. In the 2014 challenge, held in January, they surpassed their chosen schoolwide goal of 8,000 admirable acts.

Complementing this year’s theme of “Popping with Kindness and Justice,” a popcorn kernel was added to the display in the RCK cafeteria for every 100 recorded acts of kindness. Students also recited the “KJ Challenge Pledge” over the school announcements on each day of the challenge. “I am so proud of

RCK’s amazing students,” said Principal Danielle Naccarato. “After the challenge ends, they are asked to continue these acts of kindness without recording them, and I am confident that our students will.” Photo by: Greg Fasolino, Syntax

Town Hall Technology

Every month, students and staff at Islip’s Commack Road Elementary School gather to celebrate the current month’s character education trait at a schoolwide “Town Hall” meeting. The purpose of the meetings is to build school unity and respect and encourage a sense of community. Teachers volunteer their time to organize the monthly meetings with the assistance of selected students. For the January Town Hall meeting on

honesty, art teacher Bethany Majestic created a video that featured student skits, singing, dancing and a news broadcast, as well as highlighted library books that have honesty as their core theme. Ms. Majestic filmed the presentations with an iPhone and edited the film using iMovie, while students were responsible for all other aspects of the 30-minute movie, including writing the scripts, choosing the songs and casting the parts.

“I wanted to incorporate technology in the arts and introduce the students to a new career that falls under the umbrella of the arts,” explained Ms. Majestic in regard to the Town Hall meetings. Added Principal Jeanette Feminella, “The video presentation was an honest and genuine child production – it’s how the students read, how they dance and how they sing. It had all the components of a typical Town Hall meeting, while being interactive and fun.”

One student will be selected as an honorary ‘Legislator for a Day’ to spend one day in Suffolk County government with Presiding Officer Gregory. “African American History Month provides an opportunity to focus on the contributions of African Americans,” said Presiding Officer Gregory. “This contest will give students a chance to discover the ingenuity and inventions of African American inventors of today as well as throughout our nation’s history.” The deadline for submissions is February 25th.
