Shannon O’Reilly, a senior at Harborfields High School, was presented with an Award of Excellence for her artwork in the High Arts Showcase exhibit at the Huntington Arts Council. In its eleventh year, the High Arts Showcase features 11th and 12thgrade high school student

artwork from six local participating schools in the Huntington Arts Council’s Journey Program. As part of an AP art class assignment, O’Reilly took a still life photograph of an egg yolk and a glass of spilled milk. With her art teacher’s assistance, O’Reilly submitted her artwork to the Huntington

Art Council. Along with other student artists, O’Reilly’s artwork was displayed at the exhibit from February 13th to March 2nd. “For my photo I wanted to explore the contrast in color and do an interesting still life,” said O’Reilly.

Spring Family Fishing Festival fishing for trout, and the kids can participate in the casting contest and other fun activities.” Festival activities begin at 10 a.m. and are provided free of charge. Activities will include open fishing, fishing instruction, fly casting demonstrations and fish cleaning services. Additionally, a display area will be set up by state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and local fishing clubs. Participants are urged to try their hands at fly casting, as demonstrations will be on-going. Loaner rods and free bait will be available to participants throughout the day. As the supply of loaner rods is limited, participants are encouraged to bring their own fishing tackle if they have it. Children’s activities also begin at 10 a.m. and will include an inflatable slide (weather dependent), the “Spring Fling” casting contest, as well as hands-

on educational displays by the DEC’s Education Unit. Children participating in the casting contest will have a chance to win some great prizes, which will be supplied by DEC’s I FISH NY Program, OPRHP, the Fisherman Magazine and The Natural Heritage Trust. Governor Cuomo’s NY Open for Hunting and Fishing Initiative is an effort to improve recreational opportunities for sportsmen and women and to boost tourism activities throughout the state. This includes streamlining fishing and hunting licenses, reducing license fees, improving access for fishing and increasing hunting opportunities in New York State. In support of this initiative, $10 million in NY Works funding has been dedicated to fish hatchery repairs and 50 new land and water access projects such as boat launches, hunting blinds, trails and parking areas.

Under the initiative, the 2015-2016 Executive Budget proposes to establish an additional $8 million for state land access projects and an additional $4 million for the state’s hatcheries in NY Works funding. The Budget also proposes to create a new capital account which along with federal Pittman-Robertson funds will be used to manage, protect and restore fish and wildlife habitat, and to improve and develop public access for fish and wildlife-related recreation. The Spring Fishing Festival has been designated a Free Fishing Event, so the freshwater fishing license requirement for anglers age 16 and older has been suspended for this event. The festival highlights DEC’s spring trout stocking program in Nassau and Suffolk counties conducted in March and April. Prior to the festival, Belmont Lake

will be stocked with close to 4,000 brown, brook and rainbow trout by DEC and OPRHP. Upper Twin Pond in Wantagh, Oyster Bay Mill Pond, Massapequa Creek and Reservoir, as well as 17 other Long Island lakes will also be stocked with trout by DEC, providing excellent prospects for spring fishing in both Nassau and Suffolk counties. To further encourage fishing in New York State, Governor Cuomo signed legislation in 2012 expanding the opportunity for free fishing clinics, allowing more New Yorkers to experience fishing for the first time by enabling DEC to increase the number of free clinics that can be held throughout the state. The Free Fishing Days program began in 1991 to allow all people the opportunity to sample the incredible fishing New York State has to offer. In the event of inclement weather, call I FISH

NY at 631.444.0283 or Belmont Lake State Park at 631.667.5055. There is no rain date for this event. A vehicle use fee of $8 will be in effect. Parking is free for Empire Pass holders. The 2014 Empire Pass can be purchased for $65 at state park offices, online at http://nysparks. com/admission/empirepassport/ or by phone at 518.474.0458.

At this festival, you can learn about freshwater fishing opportunities on Long Island and local fishing clubs, try your hand at

Imagine With Meaning To continue a school tradition, students, faculty and staff at Oldfield Middle School in the Harborfields Central School District dedicated a day to support the district’s anti-violence policy with special assemblies, student artwork and performances. Each year, the school’s Character Education Committee selects a theme rooted in the message against violence. To

commemorate this year’s theme “OMS Imagines…” everyone was encouraged to dress in 1960s inspired costumes and accessories. Throughout the day, each grade level attended an awareness assembly that featured student artwork, homemade movies and a presentation by the school’s Tornadoes Listening and Caring Club. Sponsored by the committee, students entered an art or writing

contest that addressed this year’s theme and were shared during the assemblies. “We hope that by asking the students to dress up, create artwork, and participate in the assembly, we can carry this theme throughout the school year,” said OMS AntiViolence Day coordinator Jennifer Klein.

Of Snow & Spring & Savoring It All By: Jamie Lynn Ryan Spring has arrived. Sort of. As I write this column, snow is accumulating at quite a pace, ushering in the start of the new season in much the same manner as the last one began. I suppose it’s fitting that Long Island should be blanketed by white once more before finally (hopefully) giving way to the first blossoms. It’s funny, no matter how many seasons we are fortunate to enjoy here in the northeast, there are always those detractors who seem dissatisfied with the variety of weather. The seasons are too long, too hot, too cold, whatever. Imagine if we all lived in an area of extreme

fluctuations, from 100º days to 8 feet of snow at a clip. I think I speak for everyone when I say, no thank you. Of the four seasons, I would have to say spring is my favorite. It’s the perfect combination of sun and flowers and that lovely light breeze that keeps everything just right. Summer is still right over the horizon, winter is firmly in the rearview mirror and nature is in full flourishing mode. What more could you ask for? Well, other than a few more feet of snow to play in – but I assume even the biggest fans of winter outdoor activities have probably had their fill by now. Plus, for those of us interested in the “spring cleaning” aspect of things, it’s

the ideal time to reorganize – closets, junk drawers, piles of paperwork, life as a whole… to take stock and give everything a good, old-fashioned refresh. It’s amazing the cobwebs you find when you take a moment to stop and take inventory, mentally and otherwise. So, to all, enjoy the season. All of them. Each one is only three months long, just enough to savor the nuances without becoming too encumbered by the flaws. Sure, April will most likely bring the usual array of showers; but remember, May, in all its glory, is just around the corner. Everyone has a preference. Regardless, we should all make a point of enjoying each and every day.

Coordinated by the district’s Shared Decision Making Committee, James. H. Boyd Intermediate School in the Elwood Union Free School District hosted the second annual “Invention Convention” event on March 10th. Assuming the role of “inventors,” more than 92 students in third- through fifth-grade demonstrated their creativity with cleverly crafted inventions.

The event featured invention ideas from the minds of students showcased by presentation boards, prototype models and lots of enthusiasm. In addition to the inventions, a representative from the company Mad Science Group provided students with a hands-on science experiment activity where they observed the transformation of a liquid substance to a rubbery and

stretchy state. To conclude the event, students received a certificate of participation in the convention. “We wanted the kids to think of a problem they encounter everyday or very frequently and we told them to be creative in solving that problem,” said third-grade teacher and member of the Shared Decision Making Committee Lisa Friend.

Student Spotlight MESOPOTAMIAN INNOVATION

SUBMITTED BY: CHRISTOPHER DAMONE, 9TH GRADE • LINDENHURST HIGH SCHOOL The Mesopotamians have created many inventions that have influenced our lives today. Without the Mesopotamians, many of the things we use on a daily basis would not exist. One of the many inventions of the Mesopotamians was the creation of the wheel. The wheel was invented around 3500 B.C.E. The Sumerians used the wheels so that they could construct wheeled carts. By doing so, they were able to create extremely efficient ways of transporting goods. Clearly, the wheel plays a significant role in our society today. Without the wheel, cars, trains and even airplanes could not function. The wheel helped the Sumerians tremendously thousands of years ago, and it continues to help us today. Another major invention of the Mesopotamians was the creation of iron metallurgy. By 3000 B.C.E., the Mesopotamians attempted

to create iron. When they first started, the iron was too weak to be used for anything beneficial. However, this all changed when one group of people fixed the problem. The Hittites, a group of people who lived in modernday Turkey, created extremely durable iron weapons and tools. The iron they used quickly spread throughout the Middle East. Not only was iron durable, but it was also inexpensive. It is evident that iron has a tremendous influence on our society today. Iron can be found in fences and buildings. Additionally, the Mesopotamians are responsible for shipbuilding. Shipbuilding enabled them to have long-distance trade. The group of people in Mesopotamia who were responsible for shipbuilding was the Phoenicians. One place they went to for trading was Harappa, which is located by the Indus River, Egypt, Lebanon and Persia, which was

located in modern-day Iran, Arabia and Anatolia, which is located in modern-day Turkey. In our society, we clearly use ships to facilitate trade as well. Shipbuilding is still a very important part of our society today. One major invention of the Mesopotamians was alphabetic writing. The Phoenicians, by approximately 1500 B.C.E, created alphabetic writing. The Phoenician alphabet consisted of 22 consonants. Their system of writing was much more efficient than the earlier cuneiform writing because it was difficult to remember many different symbols. With the Phoenician alphabet, you could build words with letters, which made it much easier for the population to learn how to write. Many of the languages spoken today have Phoenician roots, including English.

In my dreams, In my days I’d thought I thought of better Ways. But time is vast The ocean wide With so much silence From which to hide From. The waves crash down Upon the shore A little figure Falls before, The foaming of the ocean’s breath, To climb beneath the heaven’s depths And lay upon the hill top heath To ponder the clouds And her life lived Beneath. Then whence the Ocean rose again It swelled to lift a sprawling hand, Of white and green and blue and sea It called her name “come back to me.” It reached the shore and the hills beyond, To where she lay And ponder on. It pulled her back into the Sea To cleanse her soul, Her worried being Ceaseless, this went on and on, For mercy’s sake She lingered solemn, Then when she thought she’d Drew her last breath, The sky opened wide, and The Reign fell upon Her.

Honor Band Concert A Success The 34th Annual Catholic School Honor Band performance was held Saturday, March 7th at St. Anthony’s High School in Huntington. The Honor Band, which is made up of outstanding musicians from Catholic schools all across Nassau and Suffolk counties performed for audiences of nearly 3,000 people, including family, friends, school principals, and administrators. The Honor Band is split into two units, the Red Band and the Blue Band in order to accommodate the number of qualifying students and to be able to seat all of the proud parents and relatives in the auditorium. Each is made up of 3 performing groups; Junior Honor Band – members are mostly in their 2nd and 3rd years of playing, Senior Honor Band – members mostly in their 4th, 5th and 6th years of playing and the Wind Ensemble – members mostly in their 5th and 6th years of playing who are also part of the Senior Honor Band. The Wind Ensemble group performs music that is the most complex of all three groups. Music genres performed by all groups range from original band compositions, classical transcriptions, marches, patriotic, movies and pop arrangements.

The Honor Band, which first performed together as a group of 100 musicians in 1982 has grown to represent over 700 musicians from dozens of schools today. Many graduates, who participated in the honor band when they

attended the elementary schools, are invited and accept to participate in the festival as alumni. The band is led today by Mr. Allan Fisher, an accomplished educator and Educational Manager with Paul Effman Music. Mr. Fisher accepted the baton from Paul Effman in 2007. Mr.

Effman still devotes his life to Music Education as well as musical performance. He oversees Paul Effman Music Service and performs with members of his talented staff at each Honor Band Festival. “There is a wealth of expression in every child,” stated Effman. “It is our duty to seek out and nurture the music and art in each and every student we educate.” Participants in the concert included 42 of the 43 Catholic Elementary Schools operated by the Diocese of Rockville Centre. Music education, academic excellence and faith formation are all important when your goal is to ‘educate the whole child mind, body and spirit’ as is the goal of Long Island’s Catholic elementary schools. Featuring highly developed music and performing arts programs, the schools offer experienced teachers, creative classrooms, computer instruction and innovative reading programs to accelerate achievement. In addition to the band programs, the schools, working with Paul Effman Music, has recently added orchestral study and string programs giving students the additional opportunity to learn violin, viola and cello, and guitar.

LICADD Donation price drops in the street price of heroin on Long Island, have increased the number of young people who are using the drug. Calls to LICADD’s hotlines and requests for services mirror these increasing trends and beyond the sheer rise in numbers of young people and their families seeking heroin addiction treatment services, the
