Showcasing Artistic Skills First- through fifthgrade students at John Pearl Elementary School in Connetquot Central School District recently contributed their artistic talents to a beautiful mural which now resides in the school’s hallway, inspired SHOWCASING ARTISTIC SKILLS - Students from John Pearl Elementary by the popular children’s School are pictured in front of their very own mural created based on the popular book “The Dot” by Peter H. children’s book “The Dot” by Peter H. Reynolds. Photo courtesy of the Connetquot Reynolds. Students in Krystal Central School District

Zaglool’s art classes linked the book’s thematic elements to the district’s mindfulness initiative by discussing the benefits of having a positive mindset. The young artists then collaborated with their art supplies in hand to leave their mark on a series of six large paintings, which have since been colorfully decorated and secured

safely on display the schools’ hallways. “The Dot” tells the story of a young student named Vashti, who after doubting her artistic ability comes to realize that a series of the smallest marks can sometimes lead to the biggest and most beautiful of creations.

The Power of Mondays “Where we put our awareness, and for how long, maps our destiny.” - Dr. Joe Dispenza As I write this column on a Friday morning, my mind is already filled with the promise of tranquility, relaxation and family time that Saturday and Sunday brings. Ah… the finish line at last; it’s Friday! “TGIF,” or as Rihanna says, “Cheers to the Freakin’ Weekend!” For those of us that lead hectic, multi-tasking lives during the week, you know exactly what I’m talking about. The promise of a Friday, and the relief it brings, is necessary for re-centering our spirits and re-charging our batteries. I think we can all agree that there is nothing wrong with loving Fridays. However, I want to encourage everyone reading this to… wait for it… also love Mondays. Don’t hate me. I’ll never forget a New York Times article I read years ago that ominously stated, “Heart Attacks Are More Common on Mondays.” Why would more heart attacks happen on a Monday? It’s just

another day of the week. The “why” is in our perception and our anticipation of what Monday means. Dr. Joe Dispenza, a prominent researcher in the field of the mind/body connection, famously explains, “Thoughts are the domain of the mind, while feelings are the domain of the body.” In other words, our brain processes the fact that it’s Monday, our mind creates a thought and a story around that fact, and then our body reacts to the story our mind tells us. Follow? If we tell ourselves that Monday is the start of “another long, stress-filled week,” our body will then react to that negative story we are telling the mind. You can probably trace this back to when you were a kid and dreading having to return to school on Monday, after a funfilled and carefree weekend. This thought pattern is a habit, nothing more. Let’s re-frame the story we tell ourselves about Monday. Monday is a new opportunity to put all of that inspiration and clarity you’ve gained during the weekend to work for you. It’s a new day

to create a more successful, empowered outcome than you experienced the previous week. Let’s look at it this way: weekends are for rest and relaxation, while Mondays are for action and innovation. Isn’t that a better story to tell ourselves about Monday? If you begin repeating this affirmation to yourself enough times, your mind will start to integrate it, and your body will begin to respond inkind. I can’t tell you how many times I was enjoying a relaxing, fun-filled weekend when I was unexpectedly struck with an AhHa moment. Suddenly, I was champing at the bit for Monday morning, so that I could put this lightning bolt of inspiration to work in a new and exciting way. Mondays are the days that dreams are made of. Make that call, send that email, present that idea, and when another Friday rolls around, celebrate all you’ve accomplished by treating yourself to a fabulous weekend.

October’s Charity of the Month is:

The Maurer Foundation is a local nonprofit organization that has been for over serving the community 20 years. Their mission is to save lives through breast health education that focuses on breast cancer prevention, healthy lifestyle choices, early detection and risk reduction. Responding to the need in her own practice, breast surgeon Dr. Virginia Maurer first made breast health education programs available to her patients and to their families. These programs became so successful, which encouraged her to reach out to the general public, but particularly to adolescent women through high school breast health programs. One of Dr. Maurer’s beliefs is that the choices we make early in life can affect our future beast health. Dr. Maurer actively participates as Founder, motivator and as an inspiration for this foundation. As of today, the Maurer Foundation has brought their life-saving message of breast cancer prevention and early detection to over 80% of Long Island’s Public High Schools! From reaching just over a thousand people in 1995, The Maurer Foundation, supported by steadfast board members, experienced staff and gifted volunteers, has continued to broaden their capacity, allowing them to reach hundreds of thousands of people!

Fill out the entry form and submit your photo at

Through partnerships, they educate the public to strive toward their goal to be recognized as the leading source of current and accurate breast health information!

Gwen Stefani: Just A Girl About to Take Over Las Vegas By Allison Kugel

Gwen Stefani spent her childhood and adolescence in Anaheim, California, a suburban girl living a stone’s throw from Disneyland. It was her older brother, Eric, who founded No Doubt, that would help Stefani make her way into the musical limelight with their 1995 breakout album, Tragic Kingdom. The band’s unique sound coupled with Stefani’s platinum blonde hair, red lips and punk rock fashion, brought the singer to Rockstar status in the 1990s. Her first solo album, 2004’s Love. Angel. Music. Baby. and L.A.M.B. fashion label, catapulted her into the music and style icon stratosphere in the early 2000s. Follow up albums like 2006’s The Sweet Escape and No Doubt’s 2012 reunion album, Push and Shove capped off two decades of non-stop recording and touring for the Grammy-winning artist.

SUFFOLK ZONE 5 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 3, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

This summer, the hitmaking mom of Kingston, 11, Zuma, 9, and Apollo, 4, is preparing to embark on her Las Vegas Residency at Zappos Theatre at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. It’s called, what else? Gwen Stefani: Just A Girl – an homage to her first single to make the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. I sat down with Gwen to discuss this new chapter in her life. Allison Kugel: Was this Las Vegas Residency a family decision? Gwen Stefani: As a mom, if you look at my touring for the last ten years, I haven’t really toured. In the past, I did tour for seven years. It’s hard with the kids, because they’re in school and I’m not home schooling. I did my last tour because I had this unexpected life crisis and then the music came pouring out of me from

that. It was such a lifesaver and a beautiful moment for me to be able to write again. I put that tour on at the last minute (referring to her “This Is What The Truth Feels Like” tour) and went on a summer tour with the kids. It was so much fun for them. They love touring, but it isn’t realistic. Allison Kugel: What does performing live give you, personally and energetically? Gwen Stefani: Being on stage for me, I always forget how much it’s a part of who I am. I’ve done it for my whole life, pretty much. I always think I don’t want to do it. I always think it’s fine if I never do it again. Then when I get on stage, even when I’m sound checking, I’m like, “Oh My God, I love this!” I love my music, I love being up there, I love the attention and I love being able to share that love with people and get that exchange. I don’t understand why I like it so much. Allison Kugel: It feeds your soul. You’re connecting with source and you’re in a zone. Gwen Stefani: It’s my gift. It’s what I’m here for. I’m obviously at the end of my journey of being a musician… Allison Kugel: Why would you say that? Gwen Stefani: Well because of my age, and I’ve been doing it for thirty something years. It’s perfect for me to be able to do a Las Vegas show, because not only does it work for me as a mom, but it also works creatively. It’s a new challenge. It’s going to be a way to express myself and do my whole catalog of music that defines every single period in my life.

Allison Kugel: And your audience is going to get a more intimate experience with you than they would in a stadium setting. Gwen Stefani: It is a much smaller audience than I’m used to, under five thousand people. It’s going to be so different and that’s something I need. When you’ve toured for however many years I have, it’s super awesome, but let’s do something new! That’s why even doing The Voice for the last couple of years was so inspiring for me. I think everybody wants something challenging and new to look forward to. Allison Kugel: You went to see Jennifer Lopez’s Las Vegas show, All I Have. I’m assuming the two of you discussed her Las Vegas Residency. Did she give you any advice? Gwen Stefani: I’ve always looked up to Jennifer in the sense that we’re exactly the same age, and I remember when No Doubt was coming out and she hadn’t done Jenny from The Block yet, but she had that song out, Waiting for Tonight. At the time I was working with Prince and he started comparing me and Jennifer, and at that time I didn’t even see how I was in the same category with her. She was Jennifer Lopez and I was in a band called No Doubt (laughs). But now here we both are doing these residencies all these years later. She’s always invited me to her kids’ birthday parties and things like that. She is a crazy worker. I cannot believe how much she works! Allison Kugel: It doesn’t seem human, right? Multiple television shows, Las Vegas Residency, albums… Gwen Stefani: I know. I don’t understand it. Going to see her, I was studying the production of her show. The show was incredible, and she works so hard on stage. It was so inspiring to see… and scary! When I came backstage to talk to her afterwards, she comes out of the dressing room looking like a Barbie Doll. She was breathtaking on stage, but when you see her up close, it’s like, “What?! It’s not possible. You are so gorgeous!” She was just so glamorous. We talked for awhile and she was like, “Yeah, I’ve just done 100 shows…” And I’m like, “Whoa, that’s a lot of shows!” (Laughs) And she still has forty more to go. She’s really enjoyed it, but she said it is challenging. Allison Kugel: The title of your Las

Vegas show, Just A Girl, is the title of one of your biggest hits, but it has a double meaning for you. You’re always saying, “I’m just a girl from Orange County…” Is that your way of keeping yourself grounded? Gwen Stefani: Honestly, I think if you really knew me or saw my family and how I grew up, I am 100% the same person I have always been. When I wrote that song, Just A Girl, I was twenty-five years old, going to college, still living at my parent’s house, and I was very naïve. I was driving one day and I’m thinking, “Wow! I really have a different position in this world, being that I’m a female.” Allison Kugel: Has Blake Shelton (Stefani’s boyfriend of three years) had creative input with this Las Vegas show? Gwen Stefani: Obviously he’s my best friend, so I’m bouncing stuff off him all the time. He’s one of those people in my life that’s super supportive and gets me motivated. There’s a whole bunch of songs about him in the show. Like anybody, with their best friend, we share everything together. Allison Kugel: What’s your routine before you step out on stage? Do you pray? Do you meditate? How do you gear up to give your best performance? Gwen Stefani: I don’t meditate. I’m a prayer. I pray, but first I do my makeup (laughs). My makeup is huge for me. Putting on my makeup and getting ready, there is a kind of meditation in the preparation. And the praying for me is really important. We do a group prayer circle. When I think about how ordinary I’ve always been, and to think that I’ve created all these songs, I don’t know where they

come from. I always think that it’s got to be a channeling, and it just comes through me. It’s a spiritual thing that has been given to me to share.

Basement remodeling tips A basement remodeling project can add valuable and usable space to a home. For many years, homeowners overlooked the potential of a basement remodel, perhaps thinking it would not be a smart return on investment. But that’s no longer the case. The latest “Cost vs. Value” report from Remodeling magazine says the average basement remodel can cost around $61,000 with a 70.3 percent recoup rate. In addition, HGTV says architects and contractors indicate the cost of redoing a basement is roughly one-third to one-half less than the price of putting an addition on a home. Before remodeling a basement, homeowners should think about how they want to use the space. Homeowners also must focus on some potential obstacles in a basement that will need to be addressed so that the area can be as functional as possible.

any construction. Homeowners may have to consider the installation of a dehumidifier and run venting through the basement to allow for proper climate control. If a basement takes on water, either through the walls or a concrete slab, a professional waterproofing company can come in and fix these issues so they will not damage drywall and flooring afterwards. The presence of insects and pests also must be addressed. Exterminators can help homeowners figure out which insects are in their basements and how to make the space less hospitable to these unwelcome guests so that the room will become comfortable for human occupants. Space is often at a premium in basements, which may contain HVAC units, water heaters, filtration devices, ductwork, pipes, and the other appliances. Qualified contractors can suggest solutions for cordoning off appliances and camouflaging pipes and wires so they won’t detract from the finished product. However, building access panels into the design will make it easier to service or repair features as

Certain structural and other issues should be addressed prior to a basement remodel. necessary. Homeowners also may want to wrap pipes before drywall is installed to quiet noisy drainage pipes. Uneven basement flooring will need to be smoothed out and flattened before carpeting or tile can be laid down. A selfleveling underlayment can be applied to fill in gullies, while larger crack and holes will need to be patched. Once the structure of the basement is addressed, then the design work can begin. Many professionals advise against drop ceilings, which can take away from ceiling height and look cheap. Basements can be dark, so the addition of plenty of lighting can help brighten the room. Small basement windows can be replaced with larger ones to add more light as well.

Caring for kitchen countertops Kitchen remodels are a popular home improvement project that help homeowners recoup large percentages of their initial investments at resale. A kitchen remodel can invigorate a home and make the most popular room in the house more functional. According to HomeAdvisor, a homeimprovement informational guide, homeowners spend an average of $22,000 on kitchen remodels. However, lavish projects can cost more than $50,000. Protecting such investments is important and requires that homeowners understand how to properly maintain kitchen features so they have the longest life possible. This includes the new countertops that make the kitchen look complete. Countertops come in various materials, not all of which should be treated the same way. Quartz, granite, marble, laminate, and tile countertops require different types of maintenance. Quartz Engineered quartz countertops are popular. Quartz countertops are nearly

maintenance-free and resistant to stains, scratches and even heat. Quartz will not need to be sealed like natural stone and can be cleaned using just a damp cloth with a mild, nonabrasive soap. Granite Polished or honed granite countertops offer a high-end look that adds instant value to a kitchen. Natural variations in granite give each kitchen a custom look. To keep granite countertops clean, avoid abrasive cleansers that can scratch, and opt for warm, soapy water instead. Stains are possible, but can be remedied with a baking soda paste left to sit for a couple of hours, advises Angie’s List. Wipe up oils, acids and soda promptly to avoid stains, and follow advised sealing routines. Marble Marble is a natural stone that is porous and will need to be resealed periodically. Because marble has high levels of the mineral calcite, it can be reactive when acids come in contact with it, and etch marks may appear. Promptly wipe away tomato juice, lemon juice, perfume, or

toothpaste. Marble is softer than granite and will wear at a faster rate. Avoid scratching and exercise caution when using knives or sharp objects around marble. Laminate One of the more budget-friendly materials, laminate countertops can be fabricated to mimic the look of natural stone, wood or even quartz. Laminate is less resistant to damage than other materials and will need a gentle touch. Formica® says to never use abrasive cleansers, scouring pads or steel wool when cleaning laminate countertops. For tough stains, an allpurpose cleaner should sufﬁce when applied with a nylon-bristled brush. Test any cleanser in a discreet area ﬁrst. Tile Cleaning tile countertops requires getting

into crevices along the grout lines. A toothbrush and a mildew-ﬁghting cleaner or bleach diluted with water is advised. Also, unglazed tiles need to be sealed yearly. Some soap may leave residue, which can be removed with a solution of vinegar and water. Check with the manufacturer or installer of the countertops to learn more about the ways to clean and maintain new counters.

The Association for Mental Health and Wellness is holding their 8th Annual Chili CookOff and Fall Festival on Saturday, October 20th from 12:00pm to 4:00pm at the Pollack Center for Recovery and Wellness, 939 Johnson Avenue in Ronkonkoma. This fun filled family event attracts over 1,000 people from across Long Island. Chili Cook-Off teams represent local restaurants, businesses and individuals who compete for Best Chili in meat and vegan categories. Judges announce the winners, including the popular People’s Choice

prize. Two live bands, a DJ, a host of children’s games, Halloween costume contest, fabulous raffle prizes, lots of food and beverages, and one-ofa-kind unique vendors ensure there is something for everyone to enjoy. Proceeds raised from this event go to benefit people affected by mental illness, as well as at-risk and homeless Veterans. The Association for Mental Health and Wellness was formed in 2014, upon the merger of two Suffolk County mental health organizations, the Mental Health Association in Suffolk and Clubhouse of Suffolk, along with

Suffolk County United Veterans. While the individual histories of each organization date back over twenty-five years, by consolidating, they have strengthened their resources that help those facing psychiatric disabilities as well as those experiencing mental health issues for the first time. In addition, there is now an enhanced focus on serving Veterans. The Association for Mental Health is now able to better serve all of Suffolk County’s residents.

The Importance of Respect Students of all grade levels at John Pearl Elementary School in the Connetquot Central School District were recently visited by Richard Specht of the ReesSpecht Life Foundation for an informative presentation about the importance of paying forward good deeds and respecting others. Using a colorful

digital display of songs and storytelling, Mr. Specht spoked to the students about making a commitment to the community and demonstrating compassion and respect for others. “Mr. Specht inspired students at John Pearl to spread kindness to family and friends,” said John Pearl Elementary School

Chilli Cook-Off Will Benefit Mental Health Organization

Principal Susan White. “Students also appreciated his animated reading of his book, ‘A Little Rees Specht Cultivates Kindness.’” After the loss of their infant son, both Richard and his wife started what was once only a small movement, but has now spread to nearly every continent on the planet.

Spreading Peace Among Peers

STEM FOCUSED - Students enrolled in Cynthia Dolce’s third-grade class at Helen B. Duffield Elementary School recently engaged in a hands-on STEM activity which asked them to build structures utilizing a limited number of materials. Collaborating in small groups, the young engineers were able to successfully build a number of freestanding towers using only spaghetti and mini-marshmallows. Photo courtesy of the Connetquot Central School District

on September 21st. The day’s activities began with students reading The Peace Book by Todd Parr, and learning the meaning of peace. The kindergartners then collectively brainstormed how they can bring peace to their classroom. Together, the students determined

that sharing, making friends, listening to each other, and being kind were all ways to have a peaceful classroom environment. Concluding the activities, students spongepainted peace signs on paper plates, incorporating vibrant colors into their crafts.

the Suffolk County Police Department and Suffolk County public schools.” The Friend of the Association Award is conferred periodically to recognize individuals who are not members of the association, but have gone to extraordinary measures to support the mission-driven efforts of the association. Leaders of the educational community depend upon the support of others to ensure that the students in all Suffolk County public schools have access to outstanding programs and services in a safe, secure, orderly environment conducive to their learning and social-emotional development. The Friend of the Association Award is conferred upon those who have demonstrated that kind of support for those

serving as superintendent of schools and the school districts that they lead. During his career in law enforcement spanning more than 33 years, Chief Cameron has personally delivered training to hundreds of school administrators and security staff. He has also personally trained county, fire and EMS personnel on how to coordinate their responses to an active shooter incident at a school facility. Chief Cameron developed and delivered, on numerous occasions, a comprehensive tabletop exercise to better coordinate and improve school safety in Suffolk County. This exercise program was recognized by the National Association of Counties, earning Chief Cameron its Achievement Award in 2008.

(NAPSI)—The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that there are more than 38 million drivers age 65 and older. Age is not the only factor that can impact driving abilities, but it is an important one. There is evidence that most people experience age-related declines in physical and mental abilities. These changes—which can affect everything from vision to how quickly you can make decisions—influence how well you can drive. They can also be difficult to address for yourself or with older people you know, since driving often represents freedom, independence and control. But transitioning from driving doesn’t mean you have to lose these things. Your health care providers or Area Agency on Aging (www.eldercare.gov) can

point you toward a range of transportation alternatives in the community. The first step toward finding those tools is recognizing when you might need them. Signs that an Older Adult’s Driving Skills Need Testing So how do you know whether you or an older adult you know is developing difficulties as a driver? These issues can be warning signs that suggest that an older driver may need to be tested or evaluated: • Getting lost in familiar

areas • Ignoring traffic signs and signals • Becoming easily agitated or angered • Falling asleep or being unable to concentrate when driving • Reacting too slowly to dangerous situations • Forgetting or ignoring driving basics (like yielding to the right of way) • Having trouble judging distances.

West Nile Virus In Suffolk County Suffolk County Health Commissioner Dr. James Tomarken announced today that three new mosquito samples tested positive for West Nile virus. The samples, all Culex pipiens-restuans, were collected on September 13th from Amityville, Jamesport, and Shelter Island. To date, the county has reported one horse, 135 mosquito samples and 10 birds have tested positive for West Nile Virus. The county has also reported three human cases of West Nile virus to date this year. West Nile virus, first

detected in birds and mosquito samples in Suffolk County in 1999 and again each year thereafter, is transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected mosquito. “Though the temperatures are getting cooler, mosquitoes may still be active for several more weeks this year,” said Dr. Tomarken. “We advise residents to continue to do their best to reduce exposure to West Nile virus.” According to Dr. Tomarken, most people infected with West Nile virus will experience mild

or no symptoms, but some can develop severe symptoms including high fever, headache, neck stiffness, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, vision loss, numbness and paralysis. The symptoms may last several weeks, and neurological effects may be permanent. Individuals, especially those 50 years of age or older, or those with compromised immune systems, who are most at risk, are urged to take precautions to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes. To avoid mosquito bites,

residents are advised to: Minimize outdoor activities between dusk and dawn. Wear shoes and socks, long pants and long-sleeved shirts when mosquitoes are active.water a Use mosquito repellent, following label directions carefully. Make sure all windows and doors have screens, and that all screens are in good repair. Keep mosquitoes from laying eggs inside and outside of your home. Once a week, empty and scrub, turn over, cover, or throw out containers that

hold water, such as vases, pet water bowls, flowerpot saucers, discarded tires, buckets, pool covers, birdbaths, trash cans and rain barrels. Download a copy of Suffolk County’s informational brochure “Get the Buzz on Mosquito Protection,” available in English and Spanish, and share it with your community. To report mosquito problems or stagnant pools of water, call the Department of Public Works’ Vector Control Division at 631-852-4270.

Suffolk School Safety Measures

AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY - On Tuesday, September, 25th, Congressman Lee Zeldin (R, NY-1) met with Long Island members of the American Cancer Society, including Christina Rizzi (center right) of Setauket, in his Washington, D.C. office. During the meeting, they discussed ways in which Congress can help those fighting cancer through research and patient support..

Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta, a retired Suffolk County Police Detective and former member of the FBI's Long Island Gang Task Force, has introduced legislation to establish a policy whereby, when practical, schools be used as Police Department relief points to decrease the chance that a criminal act will be committed, and to increase the probability that a police car will be nearby in the event of an emergency at a school. Currently, it is the

practice of the Police Department to use local fire departments as relief points for its patrol cars. “I have introduced this legislation, which will not cost anything to the taxpayer, as another measure to ensure the safety of our students, teachers and school staff,” said Legislator Rob Trotta. The entire Republican Caucus supports this proposal. “By utilizing schools across Suffolk County, our police units will be more visible, and will enhance school safety

and the relationship with school personnel,” added Trotta. Legislator Robert Trotta represents the 13th Legislative District, which includes Smithtown, Fort Salonga, Kings Park, San Remo, Nissequogue, Head of the Harbor, and St. James; as well as most of East Northport and parts of Northport and Commack. Legislator Trotta serves on the Legislature’s Economic Development, Parks & Recreation and Veterans Committees.
