(NAPSI)—Finding an auto repair shop you can trust can be a challenge. Here are three warning signs to watch for on your next trip to the mechanic. • While no one likes to be overcharged, beware of estimates that are well under market rate. This can be a sign the mechanic is using low-quality or even used parts. Some mechanics use lowball estimates to lure you in for additional repairs that they will tack on later. • Automotive technology is rapidly evolving and some shops fail to keep up. Without up-to-date diagnostic tools, a mechanic could misdiagnose your problem, which means you’ll pay for unnecessary repairs that don’t even fix your original problem. • If a mechanic employs scare tactics or treats you in a condescending way, move on. A reputable mechanic will take the time to explain your options just as a doctor guides you to make the right decision for your health. Fortunately, there’s a free service called RepairPal that can help consumers find a trustworthy local mechanic. RepairPal independently certifies auto repair shops nationwide for superior training, quality tools, fair pricing standards and a minimum 12-month/12,000-mile warranty. RepairPal also provides car owners with a tool that brings transparency to repair costs—the RepairPrice Estimator. Cited as a resource by Consumer Reports, AOL Autos and Cars.com, this patented calculator generates fair price quotes based on the user’s automobile, location, and the service requested. All mechanics in the RepairPal Certified shop network honor these estimates to give consumers peace of mind that they’ll never be overcharged. To learn more, visit www. RepairPal.com/estimator.

Catching Up with Oscar & Emmy Winning Actress Regina King By Allison Kugel

With an acting career spanning four decades and multiple awards, Regina King has effortlessly embodied countless memorable characters across the big and small screens. From thought provoking films like Boyz n the Hood, Poetic Justice, Jerry Maguire and Ray; to lighter fare like the Legally Blonde and Miss Congeniality franchises, Regina King brings a sparkle to every role she’s tackled. On the small screen, King’s presence in past television series like Southland, The Boondocks, The Leftovers, Shameless, and her Emmy-winning turn in American Crime, have highlighted some of the more significant social issues of our time. Wherever art is imitating life in a significant way, Regina King has been tapped to play a pivotal role in the project.

SUFFOLK ZONE 5 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 6, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

On February 24th, King took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her stand-out role in the critically acclaimed film, If Beale Street Could Talk, now playing in theaters. Prior to the Academy Awards, Regina King and I discussed her Emmy-winning role as Latrice Butler, the grieving mother of a teenage son who is the victim of a death by auto hit and run perpetrated by a group of Jersey City police officers. Allison Kugel: What drew you to playing Latrice Butler in Seven Seconds? Regina King: I was drawn to the role of [prosecutor] KJ Harper (played by Clare-Hope Ashitey), and [series creator] Veena Sud was sure that she wanted me for the role of Latrice. I liked the pilot script and decided to take that dive into the emotional pool. Allison Kugel: You play the mother

of a teenage boy who is killed by a police officer. What was your process in tackling this role? Regina King: Being a mother myself, and the mother of a black young man, there are certain fears you have that are unique to having a black child in America. You have fears as a parent when your kids are growing up, because you can’t control everything. But there are those experiences that are specific to black children that are not the same for others. You experience a bit of it, yourself, as a child growing up in America. You then carry that perspective with you throughout your life. So, I had that going into this role. I also spoke to a mother whose son was murdered by a police officer. Hearing her pain up close and personal, and her feeling safe enough to share it with me, I would say that combination was how Latrice was birthed. Allison Kugel: Is the story a fictional account or based on true events? Regina King: It was based on the truth as far as the regard for black American kids and the law, and how they are regarded in America. That part of it is true, of course. So many examples have had similar outcomes to this story, but it was not taken from one specific person’s story. Allison Kugel: Do you think a series like Seven Seconds has the power to impact hearts and minds for societal change? Regina King: I think [so]. What’s reflective for me is not reflective for you. Seeing it in a television show or in a movie creates an opportunity for each of us to see the other’s perspective. I feel that the series American Crime (the ABC series for which King won an Emmy) was very similar in that way. Allison Kugel: Do you take a role like this home with you? Regina King: I tried not to take it home with me. But again, a bit of this lives with you. It is the narrative of a part of the fabric of what America is. It took a lot out of me; I’ll be honest. It was the closest to an experiential role I’ve ever had. I’ve known people who have been victims of police brutality, but no one who was closer than a friend or a distant family member. Because it was a friend or a distant family member, I wasn’t with them in their day-to-day struggle of what that experience brings. You go through life hoping that you never personally have an experience like that, but you know that the odds are greater than

not that you will, because of who you are. Allison Kugel: Let’s talk about your 2nd Emmy win for the Netflix limited series, Seven Seconds. In recent years, you are winning awards left and right? How does each time feel? Regina King: All three times being nominated felt different. But there is nothing like the first anything, right? It’s totally surreal. The second time is kind of like, “Nah-uh, really?! How did I find a hundred-dollar bill again in the exact same place?!” It’s one of those feelings. Not to be frivolous about it, but it’s like, what are the odds? Allison Kugel: What do you see as your higher purpose in all that you do, from parenting your son to your work. And what spiritual philosophy do you subscribe to? Regina King: Overall, just trying to walk in my truth. I recently did a panel talk (Entertainment Weekly’s Women Who Kick Ass Comic Con Panel) and [actress] Chloe Bennet said something that I definitely subscribe to. She said, “At this moment in time, I can feel a certain way and say a certain thing, and then in 2022 I might contradict that, just because I’m in a different place at that point.” For me, I can only be in my truth right now, in this moment. If I am walking in that truth, if I share an opinion right now about something, in the year 2022 I will not say, “I didn’t say that back then.” I would know I said it, because in that moment it was true for me. Allison Kugel: Right. You would say, that was me then. I saw this beautiful tribute on your Instagram feed to actress Marla Gibbs. Marla gave you your first big job playing her daughter on the show 227 in the 1980s, when you were fourteen years old. You thanked her for all that she did for you as your mentor. You say, among many other things, “She taught me how to be a professional.” I want to ask you about some other influential people you’ve worked with over the years, and what your takeaway was from working with these people. Let’s start with Tupac Shakur, who you worked with in 1993’s Poetic Justice. Regina King: I would say he’s a man that walked in his truth. Man, did he ever! That would be the biggest takeaway, in that he was just unapologetic, and it was beautiful.

Allison Kugel: And working with Tom Cruise in 1996’s Jerry Maguire? Regina King: An example of a consummate professional. If you hear anybody say that they don’t like that guy, hmmm, I don’t know. I’d have to go back and look in the books on that person. He’s a good guy, and he is a professional. He is that same example of what Marla [Gibbs] was, and I saw from him that it exists when you’re on that mega level. Allison Kugel: And working with Jamie Foxx in 2004’s Ray? Regina King: Jamie is super talented. The first thing that came to my mind when you said “Jamie,” is that he’s a caring guy. He takes great care with things that he does, and with the people that he works with. That’s the reason why he’s so good at embodying a character, because he takes care with the details. Allison Kugel: I also came across a picture you posted with your son. You were waiting in line together to vote in the June 2018 primaries, and it was his first time voting. Finish this sentence for me: “I hope that in my son’s lifetime…” Regina King: The first thing that came to my mind is that he wants to have children, but he goes back and forth between asking if it’s irresponsible to bring children into this world or not. And I see where he is coming from with that. Allison Kugel: Tell him that you have great faith in the next generation to lift the consciousness of this planet. Regina King: Oh, I tell him that all the time, that I have great faith in him and his generation. Literally, from year to year with the conversations that we have, it goes from, “When I have kids,” to, “Man, I don’t know if I want to bring a kid into all this.” Just because of certain things that happen in the world. It’s the same reason you

don’t want to turn on the news half the time. Allison Kugel: If there’s one thing the kids from Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida showed me, it’s that with the younger generations coming up, there is a different level of consciousness, and it gives me great hope. Regina King: What I love is that they’re able to articulate their passion in a way that is open. Whereas, I feel like a lot of our generation, we weren’t able to articulate our anger as effectively. There is a maturity present with the younger generation, but they still have that passion. It makes me more confident in what they can accomplish.

A Love of Foreign Languages Connetquot High School alumnus Vinny Acerenza was recently welcomed back to his alma mater to share his love of languages, and the benefits of speaking multiple languages with a number of the school’s foreign languages classes. Vinny shared a photo presentation with the students of Will Bedell’s, Eileen McGinnis’ and Ashley Lefevre’s classes, illustrating the value of being able to speak multiple

languages, along with the professional opportunities made available to those who can speak a language other than English. Additionally, he discussed the opportunities his foreign language skills have provided him, including the chance to start his own tourism business in Europe. At the conclusion of his presentation, the attending students were eager to ask questions about his current

life, including how he met his Austrian girlfriend. When returning home to visit family and friends, Vinny works with his friends at a local Starbucks, and has even been invited to work at a newly opened Starbucks coffeehouse in Italy when he returns to Europe. He is currently furthering his educational journey by being enrolled in foreign languages courses at St. John’s University.

Why Does This Keep Happening? “Why does this keep happening to me?,” you may ask yourself after the umpteenth romantic relationship gone bad, continual financial difficulty, ongoing health issues or an ongoing addiction. You look at other people’s circumstances, and lament your own unfortunate patterns. As hard as this is to hear (although, it may be a relief), those pesky repetitive patterns are part of your soul’s contract that you voluntarily constructed before you arrived here. That mystery of mysteries, “Why is this so easy for her, and so difficult for me?” Or, “Why do I have to battle this illness? Why me?” It’s not random. These are the things you came into this life to work on and master. When you acknowledge that truth and make the connection, you can then begin to view these life challenges as just that, an interesting challenge that needs to be tackled head on so that you can move past it and not have to repeat it. There is an age-old debate about destiny versus free will. The truth is, both exist harmoniously

and synergistically. Here is a good analogy to help it make sense: the hand of cards you are dealt is your contract, otherwise known as your “destiny.” The way you play that hand is your free will. There are signposts along the highway to guide you, but ultimately free will reigns supreme. This means that once we incarnate into human form and we are up against worldly emotions, ego and myriad distractions; people, places and circumstances will present themselves to give you the opportunity to master the lesson, but the choice is yours to make. Here is an example: A person charts into their contract to live a life of material privilege, and then in midlife they lose nearly all of their material possessions and must rebuild from scratch. They can either choose to transcend their ego, take personal inventory and put one foot in front of the other to rebuild in a positive and constructive way while realigning their values; or they can fall into a permanent pit of despair, or perhaps, choose to turn to illegal activities to rebuild their wealth.

Another person may chart an addiction into their contract with the soul’s intention of overcoming the addition and going on to help others who are struggling with addiction. Or, they can choose to give in to that addiction and live a life of self-harm and selfindulgence, and ultimately see their life and health deteriorate. Upon their life review once they have crossed back into spirit, they will either review a life with much soul growth, or realize they didn’t make the progress they had intended, and they will want to return at some point and try again. When faced with life’s hardships, understand the work that must be done to overcome and transcend that particular piece of karma that your soul has chosen to come here to work on. There are many resources provided for us in the form of signs and synchronicities, spiritual guidance, knowledge, and people to help guide you on your journey. And you wouldn’t have chosen this path if your soul didn’t know it was up for the challenge.

Valentines For Veterans In an effort to show respect toward the nation’s veterans, thirdgrade students from John Pearl Elementary School in Connetquot Central School District were recently visited by two active military servicemen along with Suffolk County Legislator William Lindsay III in support of his Valentines for Veterans initiative in which they created tokens of appreciation for the visiting veterans.

Meeting in the school’s atrium, the students were elated to interact with U.S. Marines Sgt. Davis and Sgt. Ferraro. The students were given the opportunity to ask informative questions of the special guests, inquiring as to why they joined the military in the first place, and their favorite part about serving the country. The veterans informed the students that they’ve completed tours overseas in countries such as

Afghanistan, Kuwait and Korea, and are currently pursuing their bachelor’s degrees from St. Joseph’s College located in Patchogue. Prior to the conclusion of the event, Legislator Lindsay thanked the veterans for their service, along with thanking the students of John Pearl Elementary School for participating in his annual Valentines for Veterans event.

Too Many Walls By: CIP

If walls could feel, would they smile inside The day you came home in this world alive If walls could feel, would they watch so in-depth The moment you took your very first step If walls could feel, would they rejoice and play At each birthday, every candle blown away If walls could feel, would they not want to joke That night you came home and your heart was broke If walls could feel, would they be so pleased Of every accomplishment and thing you achieved If walls could feel, would they shed a tear As you planned your wedding and the day drew near

RECIPES

Peach Crisp

By Helene Kolotkin of Deer Park Helene Kolotkin of Deer Park enjoys making her Peach Crisp recipe as winter begins to give way to the beginning of the spring season. According to Helene, "The recipe was given to me by a neighbor of mine who moved to Long Island from California, so I guess you could say this recipe originated on the west coast." Once spring rolls around, Helene knows it's time to start making her Peach Crisp. "It's my offiical marker that spring is right around the corner, and it's one of my favorite desserts!" Helene recommends serving her Peach Crisp warm, with vanilla ice cream. What You Will Need 4-6 cups peeled and sliced peaches 1 cup flour 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/4 tspn nutmeg

1/4 tspn salt 1/2 tspn cinnamon 1/2 cup butter 2 tbsp water grated rind and juice of 1/2 a lemon Preparation Mix flour, sugars, nutmeg, salt and cinnamon. Mix in butter with a fork until coarse crumbs are formed. Place peaches in a greased 9x9 baking dish. Cover fruit mixture with crumbs and pat down. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Then uncover, and bake for another 30 minutes until top is browned. Serve and Enjoy!

If walls could feel, would it be so exquisite All the times you came home for a surprise visit If walls could feel, would they mourn the loss Of the matriarch and this ill-begotten cross If walls could feel, would they not understand Who now walks inside, every strange man If walls could feel, would they be so sad At every new box and packed garbage bag If walls could feel, would they begin to know That the time’s finally come when you must go If walls could feel, would they embrace your kiss That you gave and told them that they would be missed A wall could last forever, but people grow apart I’ll miss you walls, forever in my heart E-mail Your Submissions for Poets’ Corner Send To: AllisonK@SouthBaysNeighbor.com

Sachem P.S. I Love You Day

SUFFOLK ZONE 5 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 6, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Students and staff across the Sachem Central School District participated in a collection of heartwarming events and activities last week in recognition of P.S. I Love You Day, an initiative that looks to eliminate bullying and promote mental health awareness. At elementary schools around the district,

students were joined by peer education students from Sachem High School East and North who led inspiring assemblies on kindness and being proud of who you are. As part of the assemblies, peer educators facilitated activities showcasing the power of a compliment and how one simple act of kindness can change

someone’s day. During an activity at Cayuga Elementary School in Jaimie DiPalma and Kristin Ruhs’ second-grade class, students created kindnessgrams in which students wrote a list of compliments to one of their peers and shared it aloud to the class. With bright smiles, students read and received compliments

until the entire class had shared. At Sachem High School East, peer education students encouraged faculty, students and staff to visit the Peer Education Station where they could design and decorate a puzzle piece that highlighted the qualities that make them unique. The assembled puzzle will

remain displayed in the hallway, representing the unique characteristics found in the individuals throughout the school building. “The puzzle pieces are a representation of how we are all unique individuals, but together we create a beautiful school community,” said High School East senior Hope

Froehlich. “Each piece is a representation of exactly who you are because you have the ability to design it yourself.” At the conclusion of the week, students and staff dressed in purple to foster kindness, create a welcoming environment and signify that no one is ever alone.

NY Cancer & Blood Specialists 1st Annual Wellness Fair On Saturday, February 23rd, New York Cancer & Blood Specialists hosted its first Wellness Fair at the Port Jefferson Village Center, which scenically overlooks the Long Island Sound. Approximately, 300 fellow Long Islanders came together to promote health and wellness. People of all ages participated in the event hoping to learn new ways to improve their lives through better eating habits, education and exercise.

“Community” has always been the focus of New York Cancer and Blood Specialists. Ensuring the overall health and well-being of patients is their first priority. The idea to reach out beyond the practice’s patients came from Maryann Fragola, DNP at NYCBS, who believes that good health is a result of caring for both mind and body. “Our commitment to patients extends beyond only treating their

disease,” said Fragola. “There is so much to offer them to enhance the care we provide and having these wonderful services available to both the patients and the community fosters complete comprehensive care.” NYCBS showcased its various wellness departments including social work, psychology, physical therapy, nutrition, chronic care management, nursing

education, research, lab and human resources. To further benefit the community, all proceeds from the event were donated to the New York Cancer Foundation, which provides financial assistance to those dealing with cancer. The Foundation was formed by NYCBS CEO and Oncologist, Dr. Jeffrey Vacirca. “Today we raised close to $10,000 for people in our community who are dealing with the stress of

having cancer, including the financial hardships it causes” explains Nancy Viteritti, Executive Director of the New York Cancer Foundation. The event was also sponsored by Mather Hospital, Zwanger-Pesiri Radiology, Pfizer, and ENT and Allergy Associates. Several local vendors sampled their products including Phountain of Port Jefferson and healthy menu selections from Slurp Ramen and Toast

Coffeehouse which were all a huge hit! Non-profits including Strength for Life and Mondays at Racine’s provided information and demonstrations for event participants as well. A great addition to the festivities was WALK FM’s “Big Mike” Segiamo, who engaged the crowd and ended the celebration with prizes and giveaways including Broadway tickets to Disney’s Frozen!

The Charity of the Month for March is: Birthday Wishes!

It’s not every day that you come across a group of people who are so selfless and who work tirelessly to give others the opportunity to have something that isn’t even a necessity. I happened to come across passionate and compassionate people like this and knew I had to feature what they do! Birthday Wishes is an organization whose mission is to provide birthday parties to children experiencing homelessness. They improve and empower the lives of homeless children and their families by providing joy, play and hope through the magic of a birthday party.

program is their On-Site Party Program, which provides monthly parties at the shelters they serve and this celebrates all children with birthdays in that month. The second program is their Birthday-in-a-Box Program, which provides a party packed into a birthday box, which is delivered to families in domestic violence and scattered sites.

In an effort to show respect toward the nation’s veterans, thirdgrade students from John Pearl Elementary School in Connetquot Central School District were recently visited by two active military servicemen along with Suffolk County Legislator William Lindsay III in support of his Valentines for Veterans initiative in which they created tokens of appreciation for the visiting veterans.

Meeting in the school’s atrium, the students were elated to interact with U.S. Marines Sgt. Davis and Sgt. Ferraro. The students were given the opportunity to ask informative questions of the special guests, inquiring as to why they joined the military in the first place, and their favorite part about serving the country. The veterans informed the students that they’ve completed tours overseas in countries such as

Afghanistan, Kuwait and Korea, and are currently pursuing their bachelor’s degrees from St. Joseph’s College located in Patchogue. Prior to the conclusion of the event, Legislator Lindsay thanked the veterans for their service, along with thanking the students of John Pearl Elementary School for participating in his annual Valentines for Veterans event.

In 2018, Birthday Wishes of Long Island served 669 girls and 619 boys with more than 6,500 homemade cupcakes, more than 6,000 goody bags, 1,200 craft and activity kits, 7,728 gifts wrapped and delivered and more than 1,100 Birthday-ina-Box Kits built by volunteers. All of their birthday parties are run by carefully trained and backgroundchecked volunteers, who participate as individuals, families and groups. Their grassroots philosophy fosters the spirit of volunteerism and community service in adults, children and families, who donate their time and resources! Birthday Wishes is the first organization in the entire nation, and the only one on Long Island, to provide this invaluable service.

Birthday Wishes began in Massachusetts and after the first national news story released featuring Birthday Wishes, a social worker from Long Island was so inspired that she contact the co-founder to bring the joy of a birthday party to the homeless community here on Long Island. Birthday Wishes of Long Island began having parties in one shelter, and today they work with 80 shelters/transitional housing programs in Nassau and Suffolk counties. Each month they give more than 120 children a birthday celebration!

A great way to support Birthday Wishes is to attend or sponsor their 2nd annual Food, Wine, & Wishes Event on March 20th at Appliance World of Huntington. This is a fun evening of chef tastings from top Long Island restaurants, as well as terrific silent auctions and over 75 raffles. To purchase tickets, please visit www.LongIsland.BirthdayWishes.org/ Food-Wine-Wishes. Tickets are $60.00 per person and sponsorship opportunities are available. Feel free to call their office at (516) 390-3505 for additional information.

PUZZLE ANSWERS:

Each birthday child receives supplies to have a party with all the children that live in the shelter, such as juice boxes, cake or cupcakes, candles, decorations, paper good and yes, a wonderful bag of presents to open! Birthday Wishes serves children ages 1-19.

Most people are so fortunate that they don’t even think twice about celebrating their birthday with gifts and a birthday cake; they just assume that will happen every birthday! But for some families, a birthday party is a luxury that they simply cannot afford. On their birthday, some children may not expect any gifts and cannot imagine their name on a birthday cake with brightly lit colorful candles just for them. This is where Birthday Wishes steps in!

This organization provides birthday parties through two programs. One

Antibiotics Aren’t Always The Answer (NAPSI)—The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) encourages patients and families to Be Antibiotics Aware by learning about safe antibiotic use. Each year in the United States, at least 2 million people get infected with antibioticresistant bacteria. At least 23,000 die as a result. Antibiotic resistance, one of the most urgent threats to the public’s health, occurs when bacteria develop the ability to defeat the drugs designed to kill them.

What Do Antibiotics Treat? Antibiotics are critical tools for treating a number of common infections, such as pneumonia, and for life-threatening conditions including sepsis. Antibiotics are only needed for treating certain infections caused by bacteria. What Don’t Antibiotics Treat? Antibiotics do not work on viruses, such as colds and flu, or runny noses, even if the mucus is thick, yellow or green.

Antibiotics also won’t help some common bacterial infections including most cases of bronchitis, many sinus infections, and some ear infections. What Are The Side Effects of Antibiotics? ny time antibiotics are used, they can cause side effects and lead to antibiotic resistance. When antibiotics aren’t needed, they won’t help you, and the side effects could still hurt you. Common side effects range from things like rashes and yeast infections to severe health problems.

More serious side effects include Clostridium difficile infection (also called C. difficile or C. diff), which causes diarrhea that can lead to severe colon damage and death. If you need antibiotics, take them exactly as prescribed. Patients and families can talk to their healthcare professional if they have any questions about their antibiotics, or if they develop side effects, especially diarrhea, since that could be C. difficile, which needs to be treated. Can I Feel Better

Without Antibiotics? Patients and families can ask their healthcare professional about the best way to feel better while their body fights off the virus. Respiratory viruses usually go away in a week or two without treatment. How Can I Stay Healthy? We can all stay healthy and keep others healthy by cleaning our hands, covering our coughs, staying home when sick, and getting recommended vaccines, for the flu, for example.

Antibiotics save lives. When a patient needs antibiotics, the benefits outweigh the risks of side effects and antibiotic resistance. Improving the way we take antibiotics helps keep us healthy now, helps fight antibiotic resistance, and ensures that life-saving antibiotics will be available for future generations. To learn more about antibiotic prescribing and use, visit www.cdc.gov/ antibiotic-use.
