New Year’s Resolutions Work, If You Work Them. Last year, on December 31, 2017, I elected to spend New Year’s Eve quietly at home with my son and one of my brothers, and it was fabulously serene. We cooked a beautiful meal, watched movies, had some heart-to-heart talks and sat together on a big comfy couch to watch the ball drop. That night, as 2017 turned to 2018, I thought about the fact that I hadn’t had my entertainment column since I’d exited an in-house editor position that I worked at from 2005 through 2012. I thought about how much I missed speaking with interesting people and writing their stories. It has always felt like my life’s work. In that moment, I declared to myself that 2018 would be the year that I would bring my column back to life, and this go around, I would own my own intellectual property and be the master of my own fate. I put it out there for the universe to work its magic and let it go. On the morning of January 3, 2018, I sprang out of bed with an inspired idea. I would contact
entertainment editors around the world, introduce myself and my old column, let them know I was looking to begin again and ask if they would like to join my new syndication network. I am not sure what it was, the planets aligning, or perhaps the universe conspiring to make my New Year’s resolution come true, but before I knew it, I had one hundred media outlets across the globe on board. Now, as I approach New Year’s Eve 2018 and New Year’s Day 2019, I look back at what I have accomplished with my entertainment interview column. I am filled with pride that I didn’t just take another aimless trip around the sun this past year. I made every moment count and my New Year’s resolution was accomplished. As you are aware, I have not one, but two columns (of course “Living Well” is the second, and happened most serendipitously). One year ago today, I did not have either. That’s how much a life can change in a year. I don’t state this to brag, but to turn you into a believer, because
I want your New Year’s resolution to happen for you, in spades, in 2019. I want you to look back in December of 2019 feeling on top of the world because you just took the most productive and joyous trip around the sun; greater than you ever thought was within the realm of possibility. We’ve all heard the jokes made about how everyone is going to join a gym and get into the best shape of their life or finally sit down at the computer to write that novel. I get it. But frankly, what does that have to do with you? So some people don’t follow through. Be the person who does. Whether or not you cross more amazing things off your bucket list in 2019 or put your dreams in the “coulda-woulda-shoulda” pile is in nobody else’s hands but your own. It could be something leisure related. Perhaps you have been meaning to take an art class or a course at your local college. Maybe you want to learn to cook. There are no small goals; no small desires. On December 31st, declare it so, and make it so.

Recently fifth graders in Ms. Rebecca Turano’s class at Thomas J. Lahey in the Harborfields Central School District have been learning about and experimenting with gravity. During an in-class engineering lab, students were challenged to use what they learned to create a spill-proof packaging for astronauts to eat
Skittles (or M&M’s) in space. Students worked tirelessly until each of them accomplished the task–only one tasty treat coming out at a time. Each student had slightly different approach, and used their given materials — things like tinfoil, wax paper, clear plastic and more — in unique ways. Their teacher, Ms. Turano, is always impressed
by their dedication to completing projects. “My students are constantly asking when we’re going to work on a STEAM project,” said Mrs. Turano. “They look forward to it, get excited by it and are proud of what they have created and accomplished in the end.”

Rice Krispies Chicken
By Rochelle Levine of Plainview, New York
Rice Krispies are a classic breakfast cereal and chicken is always a dinner favorite. Blend the two and you’ve got a fun and delicious dinner recipe that the whole family will love!
What You Will Need:
Rochelle first learned about this recipe when her children were growing up and she was looking for new ways to engage the whole family in dinner. “A good friend of mine told me about a cereal chicken recipe that was passed down through her family, and she assured me that my kids would love it. She was right! We’ve been making it ever since, and now my daughter makes it for her own family.”
Preparation and Baking:
Thin chicken cutlets, pounded Liquid whole beaten eggs in a bowl Large bowl of Rice Krispies Marie’s Creamy Italian Dressing Wash chicken cutlets and pat dry Dip each cutlet in liquid egg Roll cutlets in Rice Krispies bowl Place egg-dipped, Rice Krispies covered cutlets on 10x13 baking sheet Drizzle a generous tablespoon (or two) of Marie’s Creamy Italian Dressing over the top of each cutlet Bake chicken at 325 degrees for 30 minutes. Serve with a side of Marie’s Creamy Italian Dressing if desired.
Rochelle reads the Nassau 2 edition of South Bay’s Neighbor Newspapers every week with her husband of fortyseven years.

Spreading Holiday Cheer
SUFFOLK ZONE 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 26, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com
The Community Living Center at the Northport VA is looking festive for the holidays today, thanks to the efforts of a group of volunteers from PSEG Long Island. The dozen employees donned Santa hats as they worked to decorate the building’s main lobby, dining room, pool room and other areas with trees, garland and decorations for the longterm care patients who live there. This is the fourth year PSEG Long Island employees have been invited to decorate at the VA thanks to a partnership with the Red Cross. The experience was special for the volunteers as well as the veterans who call the Northport VA home. This year, the group brought along hundreds of ornaments, lights, and
other holiday decorations. “Last year our employee volunteers noticed some of the VA’s decorations were past their prime, so we organized a holiday decoration drive throughout our offices,” said Robin Cantatore, PSEG Long Island customer representative. “My coworkers were more than happy to donate new ornaments, garland, window clings, and other decorations to bring holiday cheer to this group that has done so much for our country.” Throughout December, different groups of PSEG Long Island employees are spending time at the VA decorating more of the buildings, making gingerbread houses and cookies with some of the veterans, and providing a large donation that will
help the hospital provide warm clothing and other essentials to patients as they leave the facility. 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/inthecommunity/ communitypartnership.
Combining Art and Coding Students at Oldfield Middle School in the Harborfields Central School District recently participated in a project that combined history, art and computer science all in one. Students in Mr. Carlos Taveras and Mr. Drew Lockwood’s art classes used their creativity to create physical 3D masks in a chosen style — European, African,
modern and more — but then tackled designing a computer-generated image (CGI) of the same mask on the computer. Additionally, after creating the masks, students were able to code moving graphic images of their masks, as well as animated self-portraits to use as an avatar for their online art portfolios. Different platforms used to accomplish this include the KidOYO Sprite Editor
and Adobe Spark. Students worked intensely on their projects and were proud of the finished products. “I loved learning about the different styles of each culture,” said Lily, an eighth-grader at Oldfield Middle School, “but it was so cool and different to take that knowledge and create different versions of something that existed a long time ago.”

Look Out For Liens (NAPSI)—When buying a used car, it’s important to look for problems that aren’t readily apparent. You might think of damage or fraud, but this includes any financial issues as well. What To Watch For For starters, make sure any unpaid liens have been resolved before buying the PSEG SPREADS HOLIDAY CHEER - PSEG Long Island employee Renee Rea of car.

obligation.” This is a larger issue than many people realize. According to researchers from the Federal Reserve Bank, about 6 million Americans are at least 90 days late on their payments. If you buy a vehicle with a lien on its title, you become legally obligated to pay off the debts. The lien can also prevent you from registering the car until the lien is paid off.
What To Do One way to protect yourself is with a Carfax Report. It contains a wide variety of information reported on vehicles, such as title information, accident history, odometer readings, recalls, as well as financial issues, such as liens against the car. Start by shopping at Carfax.com to get a free Carfax Report with every car listed for sale.

(NAPSI)-Here’s eyeopening news: Recently published research from Oklahoma State University suggests that improving quality of sleep not only reduces stress, but also helps us manage everyday stress. “When you’re stressed and tired, every aspect of your life is affected,” says lifestyle expert and spokesperson for the Better Sleep Council, Lissa Coffey. “Controlling stress and getting a good night’s rest start with evaluating your lifestyle.” Dr. Douglas MacKay, N.D., vice president, scientific and regulatory affairs, Council for Responsible Nutrition, agrees: “Eating a healthy diet, taking vitamins and other supplements, exercising regularly and getting adequate amounts of sleep are all part of a healthy lifestyle.” Here are more tips to help you sleep better and stress less: 1. Eat a well-balanced diet. 2. Take your vitamins, including a daily multivitamin. Ask your doctor about other supplements, like valerian, for healthy sleep. 3. Evaluate your mattress--consider replacing it if it’s five to seven years old or older.

December’s Charity of the Month is:
Options for Community Living, Inc. is a local not for profit organization whose mission is to assist individuals and families in need develop their fullest potential for independent living.
SUFFOLK ZONE 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 26, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com
Options was formed in 1982 to respond to the need for supportive housing for people with serious mental illness. The Mental Health Residential Program grew rapidly, and in 1994 Options introduced case management services to Long Islanders living with HIV/AIDS. Soon after, a housing program for this population was started as well. More recently, Options has partnered with Long Island Health Homes to offer care coordination services to high need Medicaid users with chronic illnesses through the Access to Care Program. As of today, Options serves more than 1,800 adults and children annually through its programs and manages over 180 scattered housing sites across Nassau and Suffolk counties! Options care coordinators help connect people to health care services and a myriad of resources. Often their clients are homeless or on the brink of homelessness. This is especially difficult when young children are involved. Last year, the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless reported that on a given night in January, 3,937
people on Long Island are homeless. 75% are families with children. The following story shows an example of what is possible when help is provided and hope is not lost!
Exploring Culinary Careers Students enrolled in Northport High School’s family and consumer science classes recently had a look into what pursuing a career in culinary arts would look like on December 11th. Johnson & Whales University Culinary Admissions Presenter Dennis Labossiere visited classes throughout the day to demonstrate a cooking class and explain what pursuing a career in culinary arts would look like. Before the demo, Mr. Labossiere encouraged students to really look
inward to find the things they’re passionate about, and to pursue them. He demonstrated what a “chef’s check” could look like, how to do specific in-kitchen practices such as sharpening knives, standing with the proper ergo dynamic posture, chopping an onion without hitting one’s fingers, cleaning up as one works and more. Mr. Labossiere demonstrated how to make a simple mango and bean black salsa, but showed students how to present it in a way that would really
wow a client. At the end, students volunteered to help plate and present the dish, which was just as delicious as it was beautiful. “It’s important to get students thinking about their future careers, but basic culinary skills are necessary for everyone,” said family and consumer sciences teacher Ms. Jill Maher. “There’s something special about witnessing students get comfortable in the kitchen, and truly enjoy cooking.”
When their care coordinator Fran first met Linda, she and her daughter had been homeless for over a year and were living in a women’s shelter. Linda had experienced a lot of trauma in her life, the greatest of which was learning that she had contracted the HIV virus following a long-term relationship. Fran provided Linda with some housing resources and when she found an apartment, Fran helped her apply for financial assistance to cover the security deposit. Linda has maintained her housing for over a year now! “The most satisfying feeling came over me during my first visit to Linda’s apartment,” said Fran, “when her daughter pulled me by the hand to show me her room.” If you wish to inquire about receiving help as well, or you want to volunteer and or donate to this organization, please contact their Development Director, Denise Waterhouse at DWaterhouse@OptionsCL.org!

The Water Project is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that unlocks homan potential by providing reliable water projects to communities in sub-Saharan Africa, which suffer from a lack of access to clean water and proper sanitation. My fundraising goal is $12,000, which if reached will allow this organization to fully fund a water project in a needy community! If I do not reach my fundraising goal, they will take all that I raised and put it towards helping as many people as possible in sub-Saharan Africa. I can not imagine lacking access to clean water and it breaks my heart knowing that is a reality for some people. I can’t sit back and do nothing about this problem. Please join me in helping others in need by donating to my fundraiser online at www.TheWaterProject.org/community/profile/noellescfw. Any donation will help!

The title for this column has been taken from a recording by Louis Armstrong, titled, What a Wonderful World. This was one of the songs played as background music for the film Good Morning Vietnam, and was particularly meaningful to me since it showed a scene on the senseless meaning of war coupled with the heart-warming lyrics of the song. I really like this message, since I believe it runs parallel to the events of the world today. With all of the tumult going on, (for example, as I write this I became aware that a partial shutdown of the government may take place), I think, “Is the correct course of action to mope around and feel sorry about upcoming events, or to instead let it slide, and, while being aware of the ramifications involved, keeping a positive attitude about life in general. I much prefer the latter. Let’s be a bit more specific; I will be representing my own point of view here. The war in Yemen appears to be coming to an end with both sides now in the process of cease-fire talks. Let’s
hope for the best here. The political infighting in Congress is coming in to an end as the New Year approaches. It will be refreshing if we see all of our elected representatives drop their titles as either Republican or Democrat, stop voting along strict party lines and vote for the solutions that are best for the country. I have high hopes that with the passing of time, that will start to happen. The solution surrounding immigration will be harder to solve quickly, but I have faith that cool and impartial heads will lead the way. One area which is challenging is the continuing disagreement surrounding the UK and Brexit (their exit from the European Union). It appears the British are evenly divided between staying in the union versus leaving it. Being an eternal optimist, I do feel that both sides will settle on provisions fair to both sides, and that peace will once again settle in. One only has to consider the bright side of things with a positive attitude to realize it truly is a wonderful day. As just one example, take a look at
And I Think to Myself, What a Wonderful World! the huge advances in medicine. Years ago, a male could expect a lifespan of approximately 70-75 years. Today, barring unforeseen circumstances, the same person could now expect to live into their late eighties. Every day one could read about new advances in cancer research, diabetes and a host of other ailments that effect the body. As promising as that is, it raises some new concerns for our aging population. It was one thing to retire at 65 and have the money to comfortably live in retirement for another 5-10 years. It’s a different story when you are still living into your late eighties. Do you have enough money to support your lifestyle if you live that long? But look at it this way, that’s not a bad problem to have! It is truly a wonderful day for younger folks; specifically those who are between the ages of 25-35. They were never exposed to the wild swings on Wall Street or to the threat of being drafted and being away from home for many years in a strange and dangerous land. A good way to illustrate the
importance of positive thinking is demonstrated by an example I bring to every class I teach, at both the undergraduate and graduate level. I draw a pitcher of water and fill it approximately halfway to the top. I ask the students to, by a show of hands, let me know if they think the pitcher is half full or half empty. You can guess the rest… the optimists will always say that the pitcher is half full, while the pessimists will state that it is half empty. This shows that however you perceive things will affect your way of thinking. You can simply try to be more optimistic about life each and every day, no matter what your circumstances are, by saying to yourself every morning when you awake, “It’s going to be a wonderful day!” In most cases, it will certainly be a great start for your day!

“Snow” Place For Hate Students at Northport Middle School have been working together to infuse tolerance, inclusion and acceptance into the school climate. The end goal of these efforts is for the school to receive the title of No Place for Hate from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). This holiday season, students are focusing on promoting and celebrating what makes every person unique. As a result of the
brainstorming of the middle school student council, throughout the week of December 11th, students had the opportunity to craft snowflakes in homeroom and lunch periods to represent their uniqueness. Once the snowflake was complete, students answered the question “What makes you, YOU?” with a single word written on the flake. Each creation was then hung on
the tree in the cafeteria as a reminder that different can also be beautiful. Students encouraged each other, admiring each other’s creations. “I think it’s important to be okay with being unique, and be okay with others’ uniqueness,” said seventhgrader Timothy Leon. “No one should ever feel left out, or less than they are, just because they’re “SNOW” PLACE FOR HATE - Students Carly, Kenzie, Erica and Timothy crafted different.” snowflakes to represent their beautiful uniqueness during the week of December 11th at Northport Middle School.

W
hile it’s difficult to gauge just how many people make New Year resolutions each year, various factors suggest millions of people resolve to improve their lives each January. Television segments devoted to healthy resolutions and discounted memberships are just two of many indicators suggesting resolutions are popular and potentially big business. As popular as making resolutions may be, reports indicate that they’re more popular to make than commit to. For example, a 2015 report from U.S. News & World Report indicated that 80 percent of resolutions fail. So how can men and women become part of the minority who see their resolutions through to fruition? The following strategies may help: • Plan on being patient. Men and women who expect immediate results may be in for some disappointment, and that can compromise their future efforts. Recognize that resolutions rarely produce overnight results, and that commitments to losing weight and saving more money take time. If necessary, set small goals that can serve as markers on your way to achieving the larger goal.
www.NYcancer.com • Don’t be shy. Sharing your resolution with631-751-3000 others is | 1-855-5-CURE-CA a great way to generate support for your pursuit. And that support can motivate you if you hit a rough patch and keep you on track as you progress toward your goal. By sharing your resolution with others, you’re also indirectly inviting others who might have set similar goals in the past to offer insight and/or advice, which can prove invaluable.
• Expect setbacks. Just like it’s important to be patient, it’s equally important to recognize there will be setbacks. Men and women who resolve to save more money and have set specific monthly savings goals should not allow one monthly shortfall to derail all of their efforts. An unforeseen expense such as an automotive or home repair might compromise your ability to meet your monthly savings goal. Such setbacks are inevitable regardless of your resolution, so don’t be discouraged when they happen. Just commit to getting back on track in time to meet your next goal. Successful New Year resolutions might be hard to come by. But there are ways to stay the course and see resolutions through to realization.
