Parade To Hit The Streets
ISLAND SPORTS PHYSICAL THERAPY
The 19th Annual Rockville Centre St. Patrick’s Parade begins at 12 noon on Saturday, March 21st, starting from parking field 12 onto North Long Beach Road and proceeding to the reviewing stand in front of St. Agnes Cathedral. “What better way to come together as a community then a parade,” commented Mayor Francis X. Murray. “Its one of the most exciting days here in Rockville Centre. The downtown shops are booming, the streets are full of Rockville Centre pride and we are able to give back to three worthy causes.” This year’s Grand Marshal is Rockville Centre native Bob Williams. Bob has spent his life serving others with his unwavering dedication, commitment and willingness to get involved in this great community. Bob comes from a tradition of service to the Village, as his father was Deputy Mayor of Rockville Centre. Following law school, Bob served in the U.S. Army and was awarded the Army Commendation Medal for Meritorious Service. He began his legal career as

soccer. Mr. Williams was part of the parades initial organization committee and incorporated it as a New York State non-profit corporation in 1997. For many years thereafter he served on the Parade Committee as its legal counsel. Over the last 19 years, the Rockville Centre St. Patrick’s Parade has become one of the most successful and wellattended parades in New York State. It has become a source of not only cultural pride, but civic pride, as well. The parade is an incorporated not-for-profit organization that annually shares its success with three worthy charities, which are National, Irish and Rockville Centre focused. In the past 18 years, their tireless efforts to raise funds has supported and donated over $878,000 to 55 charities.

Three High Schools Advance
Islanders Score Big
There might have been some sad faces after a loss against the New York Rangers on Tuesday night – the final faceoff at Nassau Coliseum for both New York based National Hockey League teams – but the New York Islanders scored big smiles with patients at Stony Brook Children’s Hospital on
Wednesday afternoon as three players visited the hospital. Leaving their skates and sticks at the rink, forward Eric Boulton (#36), defensemen Matt Donovan (#46), and defenseman Brian Strait (#37) delivered tee-shirts, beach towels, and hats to the patients and their families.
Over 40 patients, along with family members, received visits from the players. The threesome walked through the entire in-patient pediatric unit and the out-pediatric hemotology/oncology clinic at Stony Brook University Cancer Center.

Teen entrepreneurs from three local high schools earned the highest honors in the final round of the Long Island Virtual Enterprises (LI VE) Business Plan Competition and will advance to the nationals next month. Student business leaders from Bellmore-Merrick, Hewlett-Woodmere and Westhampton Beach won the top three spots at the American Portfolios Financial Services hosted event and now move on to compete at the National Business Plan Competition in New York City. The LI VE is a collaborative effort that includes Nassau BOCES, Eastern Suffolk BOCES, Western Suffolk BOCES and the Career and Technical Education (CTE) Technical Assistance Center of New York. Each high school class was represented by a student team in the form of a business. Merrick-Bellmore’s John F. Kennedy High School took first place with their company On the Move. Coming in second was the Hewlett High School
enterprise FlashComm. Rounding out the trifecta, in third place, was the Westhampton Beach High School business Helios. “Congratulations to everyone who participated. All of the teams received wonderful feedback,” said Ellen Palazzo, LI VE Regional Director and LI Field Associate for the CTE Technical Assistance Center of New York. “The judges said the student presentations were as
impressive as many of the real-world business presentations they have seen.” The Virtual Enterprises International (VEI) National Business Plan Competition is one of the most prestigious annual competitions for public high school business students. Student entrepreneurs from across the country must

According to VEI, “The competition showcases best practices, rewards excellence, and trains high school students to apply sophisticated knowledge and skills attributed to business professionals and college students.” “The Long Island Virtual Enterprises Business Plan Competition is made possible as part of the Perkins Grant Consortium,” said Ms. Gene Silverman, Executive Director of the Nassau BOCES Department of Career and Technical Education and facilitator of the consortium. “This is one of the many ways the grant enriches the lives of students throughout Nassau County, by giving them real-world workplace skills while still in high school.”
HOW TO BE A HERO
SUBMITTED BY: LAURA WALTERS, AGE 15 • LINDENHURST HIGH SCHOOL going through. I just never knew that person would be my best friend. She had some problems. She lives about thirty to forty-five minutes away from me. We didn’t go to the same school, nor have any mutual friends. We met through our parents. I never knew how close I could grow to someone who lived so far. We can talk for hours. Well, when talking for hours, you run out of things to say. When I asked how school was, I knew it was the worst and best thing I could ask. She admitted she constantly felt uncomfortable in school. She was jealous of all her peers’ happiness. Her parents were fighting a lot, she was bullied, and there was also the secret. This secret was one I knew for a long time and promised to keep to this day. Let’s just say it got to her. She became depressed and cut herself. I, being the friend I am, did what
I needed to do. I told. I told my mom to tell her mom to get her to a therapist. What I didn’t do is tell her secret. I never break my promises. I just told her she was getting bullied and cutting. But this, to any parent, is traumatizing. Long story short, it took three years, but I got her through it. But what does this have to do with heroes? Well, now I consider myself a hero. So does my friend. I’ll never forget the day I got the text: thanks for saving my life. Not to be selfish, but what I did took guts and time. I selflessly got my friend through, by far, the roughest time of her life. I think I am a hero. What I’m trying to say is that even the stupidest thing can keep someone from self-harm. Even the happiest of people go through depression. Please be kind to others, and be a hero by simply listening.

Five members of the Islanders team visited the children in the various pediatric units of the Nassau University Medical Center. They were welcomed by Dr. Politi and hospital officials, who took them to the various floors
and introduced them to children in the emergency room, on the 18th floor and in the pediatric outpatient practices. The children, who are big fans of the Islanders, were thrilled to have the players visit them and bring some
cheer during their hospital stay. The players who signed autographs and gifted the children with T-shirts, blankets and Islanders cups were: Ryan Strome, Josh Bailey, Nick Leddy, Thomas Hickey and Brock Nelson.

Student Spotlight
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be a hero? I know I have. Wouldn’t it be cool to run into a burning building to save a little baby or catch the criminal? We all know the definition of a hero: A courageous person who helps others without thinking of him or herself or the consequences that may follow. Also, everyone under the sun knows heroes are brave, selfless, caring, etc. But, have you ever thought maybe that’s just not enough? How can something so incredibly important to society have such a short definition and description? That’s because it’s wrong. A hero is an ordinary person who can and will go out of his or her way to help, care and solve people’s problems .... basically, anyone. I bet at least one, if not every teacher you had, told you to be kind to one another, and that you never know what someone else is

National Champs Nassau Community College is proud to announce that its men’s wrestling team has won the 2015 National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) national championship. The title marks the seventh time the Lions have taken home the title. Prof. Paul Schmidt, the team’s coach, gives high marks to both his fellow coaches and the members of his team. “I’m very proud of the way the guys were able to manage such a vigorous schedule by doing their school work, working and wrestling practice. This was a true team effort led by my
dedicated coaches Vougar Oroudjov, Mac Maldarelli and Sam Thomas. I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to help young men at Nassau Community College,” he said. During the tournament, first-year student Joseph Russ (Smithtown) became the 12th NCC wrestler to win an individual national championship. He beat the number one ranked wrestler Mizam Tamaradze from Springfield Tech Community College in the finals.

Antione (Williamsburg, Brooklyn), Tom McLoughlin (Maspeth), Sam Schwartzapfel (Long Beach), Deuly Espinal (Williamsburg, Brooklyn), Zack Small (East Islip) and Jenard Rosemond (North Merrick) each won valuable points which helped the College win the overall team title.

WE DO IT ALL:
The Nassau Community College Women’s Basketball team has won the 2015 National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Region XV championship. Coached by Kristine Abrams, the Lady Lions defeated Sullivan Community College to win the title. Second-year student guard Mo Jones (Freeport) was named the tournament MVP for her outstanding play, while first-year forward
Jayda Hyatt (Uniondale) was named to the AllTournament team. “In the beginning of the season we knew we had talent, so we set the goal of having a championship season. We also knew it would take self-discipline and a lot of hard work. We lost a few games towards the end of the season, but these ladies were set on focusing on our larger goal of a winning a regional championship,” said Coach Abrams. “When we entered
post-season I could tell they were very prepared, and it showed in the quarters, semis and finals. I’m proud of how hard they worked and I look forward to coaching them at the NJCAA Tournament.” Coach Abrams was named Region XV (Division III) Coach of the Year. The Lady Lions now advance to the 2015 NJCAA National Championship, set to be held March 12th through 14th in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

I settled into somewhat of a routine, using the classes to de-stress and unwind. Then came the winter, that vast, endless stretch of bitter cold, spurring the urge to hibernate until the first flowers decided to bloom. Unfortunately, stress doesn’t wait until spring, and so, come March, back to yoga I went. The first few weeks were a bit rough, what with the creaking bones and stiff muscles and, well, just a general laziness and lack of motivation. But, like magic, after getting back into a bit of a routine, there it was – that old familiar feeling of inner peace. For a few minutes anyway.
The key, I suppose, it to find a way to bottle that feeling and be able to call upon it when needed, to apply it to the world beyond my yoga mat. Perhaps that comes with practice. More practice than the once-aweek, sporadic schedule I have assembled for myself. One can only assume. One day at a time. One class at a time. One deep breath at a time. That’s all any of us can focus on in our infinite quest to find that deep, soul-searching sense of meaning to it all. No stress, no judgment, no pressure. Just you, alone with your thoughts. Breathe in, breathe out. And repeat.

Under the direction of social studies teacher David Cippoletti and Supervisor of Social Studies Christopher Widmann, competitors were tested in a challenging 15-round contest on their knowledge of U.S. cities, historic places, continents and U.S. and world geography. The National Geographic
Bee is not only designed to review and test students’ knowledge of world geography, but to also motivate student knowledge of countries and continents and their history. The district congratulates William on this academic achievement and wishes him the best of luck in his advancement in the competition.

Paying Tribute Forest Lake Elementary School students in Wantagh celebrated the birthday of popular author Dr. Seuss by reading his books and participating in a myriad of interdisciplinary
activities on March 2nd. In Christine Torrellas’s class, the students read One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish and The Lorax. After discussing the characters and the
methods Dr. Seuss used in his literature, they made Lorax mustaches and Lorax planters with grass seed that will grow to appear like hair. The students also made Lorax cookies.
(NAPSI)—For many, the answer to a financial dilemma can come from asking the right questions. To help, a public interest organization has come up with four quarterly booklets, with worksheets and self-assessment information, for those considering personal loans. The first, “Understanding Personal Loans,” helps potential borrowers find answers to six important questions: • Is a personal loan for
me? • Can I afford a loan? • What happens when I apply? • What happens if I’m late with a payment? • What terms should I understand before taking out a loan? • Which laws protect me? This financial literacy initiative that aims to educate the more than 30 million underbanked households in the U.S. about short-term, small-
dollar loans was launched by the American Financial Services Association Education Foundation. The materials are online at www.afsaef.org/ personalloans101. Printed versions are available from the American Financial Services Association Education Foundation, 919 Eighteenth Street, NW, Suite 300, Washington, DC, 20006-5517; (202) 466-8611.
CASH SCHOLARSHIP - The Museum of American Armor at Old Bethpage Village Restoration has awarded over $10,000 in scholarships to scouts from throughout Nassau County who participated in the museum’s Heritage Essay program in PAYING TRIBUTE - Christine Torrellas’s students at Forest Lake Elementary School cooperation with Nassau County Executive Edward P.

The Fish In The Dish
Send Us Your Best Pics To Be Featured!
By: Milicent G. Tycko
A fish in scaly armor Lay gasping on the plate It wriggled and fluttered its gills As it muttered “better not to wait” The cook has returned with potatoes From her numerous shopping trips And that gleam in her eyes Makes it hardly a surprise She’s preparing to cook fish and chips With a heave and a sigh Crying “oh my” That fish leaped to the nearby sink By using my brain I will Swim down this drain To the ocean so blue, I do think If they catch me once more I’ll lie on ice in the store And wait to be chopped for a dish I hear it will be Pesach quite soon So I might become tasty Sweet gefillte fish
Soles Of Shoes By: Lisa Osma
Assorted sizes lazily sprawled about the floor Leaning upon one another, holding each other up Velcro undone, laces loosened and splayed Soles bent, tongues pulled out Proud scuffs tell their stories Grass stains, splattered paint, city subway dirt Each pair worn from their travels Tired from their journey Reunited by the moon They relax Until the morning sun beckons them away

Migraine Facts And Treatment Tips Migraine sufferers use 2.5 times the amount of prescription drugs and have six times as many diagnostic tests and services as nonsufferers. The average monthly health cost of a migraine sufferer is 60 percent higher than that of people who don’t suffer from migraines, according to the National Institutes of Health. According to The Migraine Trust, migraine often occurs for the first time in teens and young adults but is most common in the 30-something age group. Who Can Help Specially trained neuromuscular dentists can perform a dental procedure that can help. They use special equipment to find the optimal resting position of the jaw and It’s an expense both create an orthotic—which in terms of career—lost looks like an athlete’s work—and medical costs. mouth guard. When
inserted into the mouth, it can change your bite. Many treated this way find their chronic migraines are prevented. Why It Works That’s because chronic moderate to severe headaches, including migraine, are a common indicator of malocclusion, or a bad bite, commonly called TMD or jaw joint disorder. “That’s particularly true of headaches that are focused behind the eyes, near the temples, around the jaw and ears, or at the back of the head in the area of the neck and shoulders,” explains Mark Duncan, clinical director at LVI Global, where many of the dentists train.

(NAPSI)—While many people turn to prescription drugs to try to control migraines once they start, there aren’t any that are terribly effective and none that will stop the migraines before they happen. There is, however, another option and it doesn’t involve taking medication. The Problem Almost 5 million people in the U.S. experience at least one migraine attack a month. More than 11 million people blame migraines for causing moderate to severe disability and 91 percent of them can’t function normally during migraine attack, according to the American Migraine Study, which also reveals that the average migraine sufferer misses two days of work per year.

Gardiners Avenue kindergarten and firstgrade students celebrated their love of reading in honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday on March 2nd. Throughout the day, teachers engaged their classes in multidisciplinary lessons, which concentrated on the celebrated author’s use of language. Each class also made red-andwhite striped hats, which were worn during their activities. Christin Tripp’s, Christine Porrazzo’s and
Sabrina Senay’s firstgrade class read articles and watched videos about Dr. Seuss’ life and then wrote biographies about the author. They used blend diagraphs to create “at” family words, and decorated their Seuss hats with words that contained “at.” A math component to the lesson included a bar graph indicating the students’ favorite Dr. Seuss books. Kindergarten students in Maureen Boniello’s and Joan Margolis’s kindergarten classes

Senior Justin Hansen said he enjoys helping out. “Helping these students is something positive to take away at the end of the day,” he said. “For the CD students, our presence here means everything to them.”
studied the “The Cat in the Hat” and, using a four square technique, wrote about their four favorite parts of the book. Using Venn diagrams, the students also discussed how Dr. Seuss’s characters evolved. In Jennifer Zayas and Louann Manchisi’s kindergarten class, the students made a Dr. Seuss banner to celebrate his NIGHT OF COLLABORATION - Division Avenue High School Peer Buddy Sarina birthday and cut out letters, Stein and Douglas Stephens had a terrific time during CD Sports Night.

During the evening, the students participated in 10 relay activities, including the Smile Game, in which they ran across the gym and drew a smiley face on a piece of paper before returning to the team. Other activities included Do the Laundry, Find the Birdie and the Tennis Ball Balance Relay. Mr. Rusch explained that each of the relays assisted the students in further development of

in third-place ($252). The fundraiser coincided with a basketball fitness unit with physical education teachers Eileen Keener, Tommy Liguori and Gary Reh, who also placed interesting healthy heart facts on the gymnasium walls.
A culminating activity included a “Knockout” game tournament with Kyle Graham and Julia Wilkinson demonstrating their athletic skills on the court by taking the lead on the boys and girls teams.

Wantagh High School freshmen Emma Vines, Kyleigh Watson, Lindsay Whiteman and Olivia Zukowski were first-place winners in the Cradle of Aviation’s iConnect Challenge for their public service announcement, “SAT Question of the Day, Studying and Thriving.”
The iConnect Challenge requires students in grades 9-12 to research educational applications and create a publicservice announcement demonstrating the use of the app. After choosing to publicize the SAT Question of the Day app, the students wrote a script, filmed their
commercial and edited the material for a successful video. The PSA can be viewed on the Cradle of Aviation website’s competition page at www.cradleofaviation. org/education/ competitions.html.
Ready For Competition Fourteen teams from W.T. Clarke Middle School will be submitting their projects to this year’s Christopher Columbus Science Competition. The competition invites middle school students to identify a community issue, conduct research and propose a solution. Team Traffic Sign Police which includes students Julian Taveras, Daniel Hong, Anthony Gianni and Faraj Siddique – are proposing an electronic method for motorists to report blocked street signs. “We want to be among the first to address this problem,” one team member said during the team’s recent presentation
for Town of Hempstead Supervisor Kate Murray, who visited the school. Their research included taking photos of blocked signs, surveying local adults to see if they thought this was an issue and researching municipalities which offer this service on their websites. Additionally, the team proposed to incorporate a form they created for its website. They even suggested placement on the current Highway Department page. “I was very impressed by the research they did and their thought-provoking proposal,” Supervisor Murray said. “I think you have an excellent chance

with the Christopher Columbus Science Competition.” Supervisor Murray said the township is always looking for ways to improve its website and the services offered on it. “You’ve convinced me,” she said, noting she would work towards implementing this on the town website. “We depend on residents to call in and report issues.” Principal Stacy Breslin said she was “proud of the work that they have done throughout the course of the year to get this far,” as well as “their investment in the community.”

A Juicy Way To Enjoy A Healthier Lifestyle (NAPSI)—There’s good news for those who have embraced drinking fresh fruit and vegetable juices as a way to pursue a more healthful diet: Enjoying such juices just got easier. That’s because a leading juice retailer that is also recognized as a healthy lifestyle brand has revealed that it’s expanding its squeezed-to-order, fresh
juice offerings nationally. The fresh, made-to-order juices, available at Jamba Juice, incorporate highnutrient and on-trend whole foods including kale, beets, cucumbers, apples, oranges and chia seeds. They’re available in a variety of flavors, including: • Tropical Greens—a combination of super
greens, apple, pineapple and chia • Veggie Harvest—a mixture of beet and carrot juices with super greens, apple and ginger • Carrot Cayenne—a blend of carrot and apple juices with the added kick of ginger and cayenne. To learn more, visit www. JambaJuice.com.
(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
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.

Naturally Lowering Cholesterol (NAPSI)—If living a healthier life is your cup of tea, you may be interested in an easy way to improve your health—using the natural antioxidant powers of tea. Almost half of all Americans are overweight and have dangerously high levels of cholesterol. Heart attacks are still the No. 1 killer in the U.S. The problem is that high cholesterol and your risk
may be greater than you think. According to American Heart Association guidelines, the acceptable level of “bad cholesterol” is 30 percent lower than it used to be only a few years ago. This means that millions of Americans, including those who never dreamed they were at risk, now are. Fortunately, there are natural, nonprescription
alternatives for lowering cholesterol. For example, heart-healthy products such as TeaFlavin, an all-natural, caffeine-free capsule made from tea extract, contain as much cholesterol-fighting power as 35 cups of green tea. For more information on TeaFlavin, visit www. teaflavin.com or call (800) 876-4332.
Seven Mistakes Grocery Shoppers Make Seven Mistakes Grocery Shoppers Make (NAPSI)—You may save yourself time, money and trouble at the grocery store if you avoid these seven common errors that shoppers make: 1. Consumers don’t make a list before they go. It always helps to have a clear plan of what you’re going to buy before you hit the store. To help, there are a number of apps that can get you organized. One, ZipList, is an online recipe box and shopping list system that syncs across desktop, tablet and mobile devices, so you can stick to your list and not forget important ingredients. 2. Shoppers buy food when they’re hungry. Shopping hungry often
leads to impulse buys and purchasing more than you need. 3. They don’t look down. Brands pay a premium to be displayed at eye level, so looking down can be a way to find the same-quality items at lower prices. 4. People shy away from the generic brands. You’ve had your go-to cereal for years but your grocery store may be offering the same ingredients in a generic cereal for a fraction of the cost. 5. They go during peak hours. Shopping for the week on Sunday afternoon? Looks like everyone had the same idea. Try to switch up your schedule and stock up during less popular times, such as late evening on a weeknight or
early Saturday morning. 6. Food purchasers ignore the center aisles. Center aisles at grocery stores usually contain such packaged goods as canned food and beans. These can offer depth and heartiness to your meals without breaking the bank. 7. Consumers don’t check for deals. The online list system can help here, too. ZipList has a Grocery Deals feature that helps you find what’s on sale at stores near you. The feature pulls directly from grocery circulars and other sources, so even perishable goods can be found on the site on a week-to-week basis.
