City Strolls Springtime in New York. These words bring to mind many fond memories of days spent adventuring through Central Park and traversing the city streets from the upper west side all the way down to the Brooklyn Bridge and back again. It’s true what they say that you can literally spend an entire day in just a few square blocks and still not manage to see even a fraction of what that neighborhood has to offer. While I have resided within a mere hour’s drive of Manhattan for the entirety of my life, I am ashamed to say there are countless landmarks and tourist attractions I have yet to take the opportunity to appreciate. In recent years, I have traversed miles of city blocks on foot with one particularly adventurous friend for various shenanigans, some of which

have been documented in past columns - my futile attempt to cross as many of these “bucket list” items off of said list. From trying to time our return trip over the BK bridge to photograph sunset {while toting nearly an entire leftover pizza from Grimaldi’s} … to finding a “shortcut” through the Park that somehow managed to add about five miles to the journey … to winding up on the steps of Lincoln Center thoroughly out of breath, shoes in hand (documented in one of aforementioned past columns), just in the knick of time for the ballet … the stories are endless and, in retrospect, quite funny. And yet, there remain so many more nooks and crannies left to explore, museum exhibits to browse, restaurants to sample, culture to take in. Of course, there are

activities to indulge in during any season in New York; it’s just, the thought of exploring them seems particularly inviting in the spring. Perhaps this month, maybe next. Path to be determined. {And, inevitably, rerouted. Several times.} I have often thought how nice it would be to reside right there, at the center of it all. But, as with most things, it seems the daily routine is what ultimately wears on people and strips away the novelty of living in one of the greatest cities in the world. Visiting, however often - or seldom - it might be, keeps the perspective fresh and full of untapped adventure and excitement. So does randomly wandering the city streets with a good friend {and a spare pair of slippers} in tow. Happy trails!

(NAPSI)—Allergies are nothing to sneeze at but you can make your home more comfortable for people who have allergies and improve your indoor air quality—by cleaning in an often forgotten place. Indoor air quality can be a big concern for many families. After all, in a typical six-room home, up to 40 pounds of dust— including dangerous chemicals and other pollutants—is created annually through everyday living. These contaminants are pulled into the HVAC system and recirculated as much as seven times a day. Over time, this leads to built-up contaminants in the ductwork. Since your heating and cooling system is the lungs of your home, you want to keep it clear.

We are currently looking to hire one Inside Sales Representative to work in our Farmingdale office and one Outside Sales Representative to work in a local territory and represent our company for our weekly newspapers, our seasonal magazine and our print, deliver and insert programs.

If you are interested in participating in either or both of these races with colleagues, as a family or individually, you can sign up today! Additionally, if you are interested in volunteering your time preparing for the event - handing out t-shirts, making sure every participant has what he or she needs, etc.; or at the event - taking photos for promotional purposes, you can do so. Please visit their website at www.FriendsOfKaren.org for additional information. Are you someone who prefers to donate? If yes, you can do so by donating a gift card today.

Friends of Karen is a nonprofit organization that supports critically-ill children and their families. This year, they are celebrating their 40th anniversary; four decades of bringing help, hope and support to over 15,000 children and their families in the tri-state area. In 1978, Friends of Karen began with one family, one child, Karen MacInnes; and one inspired woman, Sheila Petersen, who wanted to sustain her close friends through the devastating illness of their daughter. Today, Friends of Karen serves hundreds of families by providing emotional, financial and advocacy support to children with life-threatening illnesses, and to their families in order to help keep them stable, functioning and able to cope, at no cost. To apply for help, a parent or guardian of the ill child must call the organization and speak to a member of their Family Support Team. Friends of Karen often hosts or participates in many events within their community. On Saturday, May 5th and Sunday, May 6th, they are hosting a team in the Long Island Marathon at Eisenhower Park in East Meadow. Saturday will be a 5K and Sunday will be a 10K. They are looking for people to join their Friends of Karen team and to

type of communication), a cell phone chat, a fax or some other type of carrier. The Medium - The medium is the method by which the message passes through, which can take a variety of forms. Let’s use the example of chatting with another using your smart phone. The Receiver - The receiver is the person you are talking with. At this point, he/she has started to decipher your message and, based on that comprehension, is ready to reply. Now, the receiver is replying to you and, in effect, giving you feedback. You are now in a position to interpret the response and reply accordingly. The following are several guidelines to observe during this process: The Downward Effect of Noise - Noise can be present anywhere in the communication loop. It can take the form of any type of disturbance which disrupts the transmission and reduces the quality of the communication. Use of Jargon - Always keep your words as simple as possible. A particular type of statement might be fine for a business situation, but not useful in other conversations. Body Language - A point to

The Art of Effective Communication To start, let’s begin by defining communication. Simply put, it is the transfer and understanding of meaning to another person. However, not communicating effectively can lead to misunderstandings, confusion and a host of other problems. For example, have you ever completed a conversation only to have the other person state that he/she is not sure what you said? How about a cell phone chat where the other person’s voice fades in and out and you just assume you heard everything said? What if you are talking to a person with a heavy accent and are hesitant to ask them to clarify? Chances are, you have probably interpreted a few things incorrectly. Try to envision effective communication as a closed loop. For example, in an electrical circuit, all components must be completely integrated. If not, there will be a short circuit, and the circuit will fail. So it is with the communication loop. Allow us to delve further into the subject. Let’s begin by exploring each component: The Message - The process begins with the sender of the message. This can be in the form of a face-to-face conversation (the most effective

remember is that only 20% of what the other person says is surfacing. The other 80% is expressed through their body language, including facial expressions, body movements and a change in the way they are expressing themselves. Following are a few tips to overcome the obstacles to effective listening: Be Aware of Your Emotions - When upset about something, you may not always speak, or write, in a rational manner. It might be best to postpone a conversation until you are calmer. Stop Interrupting - Some people have a habit of not listening effectively and continue to interrupt the other person with their own thoughts. We need to listen 80% of the time, and only speak 20% of the time. Make Sure You are Interpreting the Feedback Correctly - If you are not correctly understanding all of the feedback being given, your own feedback might faulty as well. Clearly, the subject of communication is a complex one. By following the above notes, you will be on your way to become a better communicator.

Spring

By: Evelyn Rivera

Sleeping in the mist of the hauling wind, the chill and the frost rejuvenating spirits contained. There is a comfort as we nest beneath the snow and the soil, waiting until Spring is ready to soar; tiger, iris and even daffodils, perennials of all shapes and hues. We rest, we nourish and we wait for the first glance of Spring break. When it arrives, life awakens with rays of light that nurture, pushing away the cold storm, gracing you with a spectrum of rainbows. Spring

The Tree Outside My Window The tree I love, she stands so tall. In the Autumn, all of her leaves do fall. Now in December, I take a glance and see snow has covered each and every branch. In the Spring, on her rebirth, tiny buds I see each day. I wait and look each and every day for the buds to say Spring is here. The birds have time to nest, the squirrels frolic up and down. She cools me in the summer with her ability to shade. Please always stay, dear tree; be strong in hurricane winds that happen. May I always see you each and every day.

“The Hands That Sign Your Contract Are The Hands That Build Your Dream.”


Westy Self Storage is hosting a book drive for the Rotary Literacy Program through April 15th. Westy in East Northport, located at 4049 Jericho Turnpike, across from Barnes and Noble will serve as a designated drop off location for donations. Please donate your new or gently used books for elementary school children, ages 5-13. Books will be used to support the Rotary’s initiative to assist those less fortunate in the Dominican Republic. Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change across the globe, in their communities, and in themselves. For more than 110 years, Rotary’s people of action have used their passion, energy, and intelligence to take action on sustainable projects.

From literacy and peace to water and health, they are always working to better the world, and they stay committed to the end. Rotary takes action to empower educators to inspire learning at all ages. Their goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy. District Governor Wendy Walsh/DeMaria states, “I have travelled to the Dominican Republic for over 25 years and the public education system has never changed. Only 4% of the gross national income is spent on education in the Dominican Republic. Their limited resources are a product of their environment and their government. Enabling the youth to empower themselves with education will undoubtedly create a new culture of able minded

individuals and youth who will strive to be more than the field workforce that they are today. I am so grateful to the entire team at Westy for hosting the book drive. With their convenient location as a designated drop off, we are sure to have a success drive.” Westy is open for drop off 7 days a week. Hours are 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays. Call 631.462.3200 or visit www. westy.com for directions. “Please help those that are less fortunate and contribute to the book drive at Westy,” said Joe Schweyer, District Director of Westy Self Storage, East Northport location. Catch Your Dreams The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. Eleanor Roosevelt

Living With Diabetes (NAPSI)—Chef Chris Smith (aka The Diabetic Chef), a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and a person living with type 1 diabetes, may have good news for the nearly 30 million other Americans with his condition: Being diagnosed with diabetes doesn’t mean your life needs to lack flavor. There are many ways to prepare nutritious and delicious meals without sacrificing taste. In fact, Chef Smith worked with Equal

0-calorie sweetener to develop a digital recipe guide and tips to take the guesswork out of meal planning. Five other things he suggests: • Use your resources, including your health care provider, dietitian and Certified Diabetes Educator. • Understand the relationship between carbohydrates and blood sugar and learn how to manage them. • Monitor how much

sodium, saturated fat and sugar you consume. • Incorporate more fruits and vegetables into your diet. • Read nutritional labels—know what you’re eating. A variety of sweet and savory dishes that use Equal instead of sugar are suitable for people with diabetes and anyone who wants a healthy lifestyle. It tastes great in hot and cold beverages, on fruit or cereal, and in most recipes that use sugar.

PUZZLE ANSWERS:


Fourth-graders at St. James Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District celebrated the opening day of baseball by engaging in activities centered on the sport on March 29th. In the day filled with baseball-themed lessons, students listened to the famous comedy act “Who’s On First” by Abbott and Costello and had to answer questions about who was at each position. They read

and answered questions about the poem “Casey at the Bat.” The fourthgraders listened to the song “The Greatest” by Kenny Rogers and discussed its lessons as a mindfulness/ take away activity. The student-artists designed their own baseball pennants and budding musicians wrote their own versions of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” to share with the class. For their hands-on science lesson,

students predicted, tested and measured the bounce of a baseball, tennis ball, whiffle ball and golf ball. Fourth-graders also honed their baseball skills during physical education classes and stretched their muscles in class during the seventh-inning stretch. Students read books about different baseball legends and practiced baseballrelated math problems.

Biking to Work Continued From 8 costumes and bikes at the end of the parade. “There are many reasons why Long Islanders should support alternative forms of transportation, such as biking,” says Car-less Long Island founder and chair Sylvia Silberger of Hempstead. “Clearly it is much more environmentally friendly and bicycle commuters are able to incorporate a healthier active life-style into their daily routine. But also, it reduces vehicular congestion, benefitting all motorists, and many studies have shown that walk- and bike-ability helps local businesses thrive.”

Silberger says there are many Long Islanders who need alternative forms of transportation because do not drive or own their own cars. “We all benefit if everyone as access to the transportation necessary to survive in this world,” she added Car-less Long Island (CLLI) was founded in the summer of 2015 as a project of the Ethical Humanist Society of Long Island. “It seems I have often found myself in conversations with other Long Islanders who would like to be able to get around without a car, but are frustrated by the danger and inconvenience inherent alternative modes of transportation,” says

Silberger. She founded CLLI to counter the “nihilistic feeling that this is just how Long Island is – we are a car-culture and that will never change.” Silberger is optimistic that the Bike-to-Work Parade will allow Long Islanders who would like Long Island to be a more bike-friendly community realize that they are not alone. Participation in the parade is free, but participants are encouraged to register in advance at www.CarLessLI.org/parade2018. More information about the parade, such as maps and how to volunteer or sponsor the event can also be found on that page.

Five Ways To Protect Your Vision (NAPSI)—Did you know that women are at greater risk for blindness and vision problems? The National Eye Institute, part of NIH, reminds women, especially those over age 40, to make their eye health a priority by taking five simple steps to protect their sight. Get a dilated eye exam. Getting a comprehensive dilated eye exam is the only way to know if your eyes are healthy and you are seeing your best. Talk to your eye care professional about how often you should have one. Live a healthy lifestyle. Eating healthy foods, maintaining a healthy weight, managing chronic

conditions, and not smoking can lower your risk of eye disease. Know your family history. Talk to your family members about their eye health history. It’s important to know if anyone has been diagnosed with an eye disease, since many are hereditary. Use protective eyewear. Prevent eye injuries when doing chores around the house, playing sports, or working on the job. Wear safety glasses, goggles, safety shields, or eye guards that are made of polycarbonate. Talk to your eye care provider about the appropriate type of protective eyewear for your needs.

Wear sunglasses. Wearing sunglasses outside protects your eyes from the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can increase your risk for getting an eye disease like cataract or age-related macular degeneration, which is a progressive eye disease leading to blindness. When purchasing sunglasses, look for those that block out 99 to 100 percent of both UVA and UVB radiation. These steps can help keep your eyes healthy and prevent vision loss and blindness from eye disease. For more information, visit www.nei.nih.gov/hvm.

Prevent Isolation As You Age! (NAPSI)—Did you know that an estimated one in five adults over age 50 are affected by isolation? This is a problem, as research has shown that prolonged isolation can be as bad for you as smoking 15 cigarettes a day—and these negative health consequences of chronic isolation may be especially harmful for older adults. Here are some suggestions to combat the problem of social isolation and loneliness: • Nurture and strengthen existing relationships; invite people over for coffee or call them to suggest a trip to a museum or to see

a movie. • Schedule a time each day to call or visit someone. • Meet your neighbors. • Don’t let being a nondriver stop you from staying active. Find out about transportation options. • Use social media to stay in touch or write letters. • Stay physically active. • Take a class. • Revisit an old hobby. • Volunteer. • Visit a senior or community center to see what’s going on. • Check out faith-based organizations’ groups and events. To connect to aging

services and programs in your area: Contact the Eldercare Locator, a public service of the U.S. Administration on Aging, a part of the Administration for Community Living. This nationwide service is a trusted gateway to connect older adults and their caregivers with local resources for older adults. Call the Eldercare Locator at 1-800-677-1116 to speak with a knowledgeable Information Specialist or visit the website www. eldercare.gov to find local resources on a broad range of topics and access help today.

Modern Hearing Aids Modern hearing aids feature technology that continuously monitors the environment and singles out the dominant

speaker while reducing background noise. Some people find they can actually hear better than their companions with

normal hearing in very loud surroundings. Learn more about overcoming hearing loss at www. signiausa.com.

Caring For Granite Countertops (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.
