tudents recently split into two groups, where they participated in four stations of interactive activities. Throughout the day, students made “slime” and completed a series of scientific tasks that included using microscopes to examine various enclosed mold spores. Fourth graders also played a game of “Science Jeopardy!” to test their knowledge and understanding of the book. A great time was had by all those in attendance.

On Tuesday, January 26th, at 2:14 p.m., the Town of Brookhaven’s 451. TOWN Call Center reached the milestone of 1,000,000 calls since it started operations on September 12th, 2007. The 451-TOWN Call Center is the stateof-the-art constituent response system that enables residents to utilize one phone number to access non-emergency government information services. The QUANTUM CHAOS - Rocky Point High School’s robotics team earned a second- and 1,000,000th call was from place finish at the Fresh Meadows West Qualifier competition.

Pictured standing are Supervisor Ed Romaine and Call Center Supervisor Lisa Schneider. Seated is Call Center Agent Joan Holomshek, who answered the 1,000,000th call. Supervisor Romaine said, “451-TOWN is successful because of the dedication and professionalism of our staff. Hundreds of calls come in each day and our agents provide the highest level of constituent service every time. For most residents, our agents are their first and only contact with local government. Their work

is very important here at Town Hall and I applaud their efforts.” The 451-TOWN (8696) Call Center operates Monday through Friday (except holidays) from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. They handle a wide range of constituent calls, including comments and requests for general information as well as specific questions about services such as garbage collection and recycling, public safety, code enforcement, street lighting, highway maintenance, parks and Town events.

BE MORE POSITIVE, HAPPY, HEALTHY & SMART That is what you will learn by reading, Positivity! Unlike other books regarding happiness, this book builds a foundation on being smarter, obtaining the skills necessary toward gainful employment and managing money successfully. How can a person be happy if they do not have a good job, cannot give a good speech and cannot invest wisely? In the highly competitive world in which we live, a foundation must be built that makes people happy and healthy. The foundation starts with positive thinking and a healthy lifestyle but it should be coupled with continuing education and prowess in accumulating and managing money. This answers the question, how can a person be happy in today’s world. “Reading Positivity is a game changer for every reader. The unique wisdom and philosophy of life that Harry Edelson shares proves that life can be easy and joyful for everyone. Imagine a world if seven billion people lived by Positivity! Thank you for sharing this masterpiece. Harry Edelson has figured out true keys to a good life – which is the one common denominator everyone wants. And I know, because I’ve interviewed over 400 of the top CEOs, and I see a lot of wisdom and very successful people…and Harry has truly figured it out. What a gift you offer in this book.” ROBERT REISS, HOST & CEO, THE CEO SHOW “As Benjamin Franklin said: ‘An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.’ The wisdom in Harry Edelson’s book is like finding a great investment. It continues to grow in value and will pay dividends throughout your life. This is the same philosophy that the brilliant investor, George Soros, has advocated through his Open Society Foundations where I served as a Trustee for many years” JOHN W. ALLEN, INT’L INVESTMENT BANKER AND CHAIRMAN OF GREATER CHINA CORP “The interesting thing about Harry Edelson is that he is usually the smartest guy in the room and what is amazing, the happiest guy in the room. His book tells it all and can be easily absorbed by adults and students alike.” ELIZABETH KABLER, TRUSTEE, ANNENBERG FOUNDATION TRUST AT SUNNYLANDS, FOUNDER, NY CENTER FOR LIVING

The American Heart Association (AHA) wants you to GO RED on Friday, February 5th for National Wear Red Day to help shine a light on the number one killer of men and women heart disease. Companies, community organizations and residents are invited to get creative to make landmarks, main streets, buildings and homes “Go Red” to kick off February’s American Heart Month. “This is such a simple

way to make a difference in our community. Every red heart, red ribbon or red dress in a store window reminds women, and all of us, how important our hearts are. Heart healthy should be our main priority in February and all year long to prevent our number one killer,” said Dr. Scott Schubach, President of the Long Island American Heart Association Board of Directors and Chairman of the Department of

Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery at WinthropUniversity Hospital. In addition to landmarks going red, thousands of employees will participate in National Wear Red Day by donating $5 to the Go Red For Women campaign. In turn, they will receive a red dress pin or wristband, and lifesaving heart health education. Some organizations will offer heart healthy lunch and learn programs, organize healthy walks, or offer healthier foods in vending machines or cafeterias. To sign up, visit www. wearredday.org or call the AHA at 516.962.0794. The AHA’s Go Red For Women movement focuses on women’s heart health awareness in February because far too many women are still unaware of the facts that heart disease is their number one killer--killing more women than all forms of cancer combined; or that the symptoms of heart attack can be different in

Here’s Hoping By: Jamie Lynn Ryan Hope: A feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen. And so it begins. February, the month of anticipation, from furry groundhogs predicting the forecast to expressions of love and affection come Valentine’s Day. Is there anyone who isn’t even the slightest bit glad to bid January farewell? Apologies, once again, to anyone with birthdays, anniversaries and other notable milestones during this first month of the new year, the symbolic representation of all things new and fresh. With the possible exception of the few moments of New Year’s Eve celebrations which spilled over into the next morning, I have to

say that, for me, 2016 is severely lacking in positive spin. Sure, winter has spared us its wrath for the most part…save for one tiny twofoot helping of the white stuff. Still, the bitter cold and gray, overcast skies leave something to be desired. There is only so much hibernating and vegetating one can realistically do. (Netflix, anyone?) But here we are, turning the page – on the calendar and hopefully on life – as month two begins, providing us with yet another blank canvas to fill. Here’s to getting back to doing those things which make us happy, to not allowing the negativity of other individuals and situations dictate our moods, to rising above the monotony in search of fulfillment.

Here’s to hoping that February provides the perfect precursor to spring, and all the beauty and wonderment it brings. Plus, we have an extra day to take advantage of this year, a bonus opportunity if ever there was one. Now all we have to do is make use of it, and of all those clichéd philosophies we want so badly to believe in. Whatever it is you are hoping for, may you have the courage to go after it. Good things come to those who wait; but a pointed step in the right direction surely doesn’t hurt. Here’s to February, to frosted windowpanes and picturesque winter sunsets and the beginnings of revitalization. Oh, and of course Buddy the Betta’s 1st birthday. Priorities humans, priorities.

women vs. men, causing women to delay seeking treatment; or that ninety percent of women have one or more risk factors for heart disease or stroke. This lack of awareness means that more women than men are dying from heart disease and stroke. Go Red For Women’s goal is to save women’s lives. The good news is that more than 80% of heart disease events in women can be prevented by making simple lifestyle changes like eating healthier, quitting smoking and exercising 30 minutes daily. The AHA also encourages women to get their “well-woman visit” at their doctor’s office to help detect the early signs of heart disease. Women can get lifesaving information at www. goredforwomen.org and join in the healthy lifestyle conversation at https:// w w w. f a c e b o o k . c o m / groups/AHAMomsUnite/

Student Spotlight THE BLUE GLASSES SUBMITTED BY: COLLIN SLATTERY, AGE 11, EAST LAKE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Vrooommm! The sound of the car engine was all I could hear. I just got back from the eye doctor. Not good. I knew that someday I would get them, but now? I was only 3 years-old. I looked at my mom and brother. They were talking, but I could not hear them. My brother might have been thinking, “Now I have this loser brother with glasses.” I bet he would have said something but my mom would not let him. She simply wouldn’t. Then my mom took her phone out of her pocket and gave it to my brother. I saw him scroll down until the contact for my dad came up. I was starting to hear now, but faintly. My brother hit the “speaker” button on her phone. “Guess who is going to look even more handsome?” My dad guessed me on the first try. About five more minutes passed, and we were rolling down a “one-

way” parking lot entrance. I saw these menacing looking penguins out of the few inches of window space I had because I was so short. They were staring me down, those ugly penguins. I thought how silly I was to think those penguins are menacing. I thought how my eyes might be acting up or maybe the tinted window might be doing it. I looked up from the seemingly menacing penguins up to the name of the shop. It was called the Eyeglass House. Then we found a spot in the deserted parking lot. When I walked into the store, it was a room where I half expected there to be gas coming out of the wall like a torture chamber. It was a 6’x6’ room with a hat rack and a 2’x4’ bench. There was another door in front of me. I walked through the door, touching a dry, old, rusty doorknob. I looked to the left and saw two desks and at least 100 pairs

of glasses. I saw a bunch of chairs with a life-sized Mickey Mouse. I took a seat… “Slay-terry?” an old woman croaked. My mom, Aidan and I stood up and walked over. The old woman had bright purple glasses and nasty, old, ugly, horribly crooked teeth that reminded me of a beaver’s. She picked out three pairs and I disliked all of them. We tried on a green pair that I looked stupid in, a red pair that I liked the best, and heavy, vomit-worthy blue ones that had holes in the rims that kept the glasses on my face. The holes must have been there to catch a new fashion trend, but the only thing it was catching was strands of my hair. “I like these!” the nasty lady and Mom said. Moments after, we walked out with me wearing the blue glasses. I guess all stories don’t have happy endings.

A Little Bird

Send Us Your Best Pics To Be Featured

By: Alexandra H. Rodrigues

The little bluebird knew That hard would be the times ahead Impossible nearly to find crumbs of bread Already that little bird was weak When in my garden food it did seek All the other birds by now had flown south Fireplaces lit up in many a house. I stand outside, hear how the bluebird sings I can see how it flutters with its tiny wings It does not complain Nor harp on any pain. It still praises the universe with its song Confident that his God cannot do wrong I would like to care for it and take it in here But it belongs to the outside sphere So I will try to make it stronger Help it to survive a good time longer.

“Man & His Dog” - Gardiners Park Photo by: Denise M. Poveromo, Copiague

I had honest feelings for my little bird Which through cosmic waves I think it heard It found a bush where it was safe It took the cold so very brave. Its singing got stronger Its excursion flights got longer By spring it had proven it would not accept defeat With the flock of from south returned birds it did meet.

A Sunset of Hope By: John McGowan

Christmas is behind and winter is now But a beach at sunset renewed my vow To keep moving forward and not look back There’s good things ahead to keep me on track And if a bad day appears and rears its formidable head I’ll stay in the moment and think good thoughts instead As the sun lowers like a bright nugget of gold I’ll resolve to stand tall, resolute and bold.

Musical Collaboration Three Village Central School District students helped break a Guinness Book of World Record during this year’s SCMEA Day of Horn. The students, who came from Minnesauke,

Setauket and W.S. Mount Elementary Schools as well as P.J. Gelinas and R.C. Murphy Junior High Schools, broke the record for the most horns performing on stage at one time. The record was

originally 180, held by a group of Pakistani sheep hornists, but this year’s SCMEA group surpassed that with more than 270 players on stage.

Joseph A. Edgar Intermediate School students cozied up with hundreds of books this winter as they participated in the school’s annual We Are Reading More (WARM) program. With the goal of reading 500,000 minutes, students read countless fiction and non-fiction stories during the month-long event and logged the amount of minutes they spent reading.

Upon completing each book, students reflected on the pieces using graphic organizers. For fiction books, they described the characters, setting, problems and solutions revealed, and for nonfiction books, they detailed five facts they learned from the book. The program also included several theme days, which called for the students to either wear such things as socks on

“Sock it to Reading” day or participate in activities. In celebration of the school reading 557,080 minutes, each student was awarded a small prize and entered into a raffle to win various giveaways from local stores and businesses. Additionally, teachers competed in several athletic challenges on the last day of the initiative to celebrate the students’ reaching their reading goal.

R.C. Murphy Junior High School students and staff recently celebrated world languages through a series of interactive events during this year’s Foreign Language Week. Throughout the week, students tested their knowledge of languages during a trivia contest, showcased their creativity as part of a door-

decorating contest and enjoyed listening to daily announcements in the three languages studied at Murphy and visiting a traveling mural exhibit. Additionally, the school continued its tradition of hosting cooking and culture classes for Three Village fifth- and sixthgrade students. Each of the three classes featured a

different foreign language, including Italian, French and Spanish, and instructed attendees how to prepare a native dish from that region. The week concluded with a celebratory International Night, which featured dishes from around the world and music and dance performances.

History Bee Champs W.S. Mount Elementary School fifth- and sixthgrade students had the chance to answer questions of historical importance as they participated in the National History Bee. More than 60 students completed the contest’s

written test, from which 25 semifinalists were selected to compete in the competition’s oral round. Sixth-graders Neal Carpino, Matthew Chen and Ari Zucker emerged as the top competitors and now are eligible to

Back to School a number of academic challenges, while also experiencing what their child has learned in classes so far this school year. Parents and students rotated between three activities where parents experienced the students’ daily gym activities and tested their knowledge of the fourth grade curriculum. Families played board

games including Uno, Connect Four, Guess Who? and Scrabble before working together to identify various board games - without names - displayed throughout the hallways as part of a scavenger hunt. Students received commemorative pins for participating at the conclusion of the event.

Minnesauke Elementary School’s Kids Care Club created 75 cards and 50 bookmarks for the Message of Hope Foundation. The organization seeks to deliver messages of hope

to children with special needs, chronic and life threatening illnesses. They deliver “happy hope bags” to hospitalized children nationwide. Minnesauke’s creative

crafts will aid the foundation in reaching their mission of collecting 100,000 Happy Hope Cards in 2016 to package in the bags.

Earl L. Vandermeulen High School junior Jillian Colucci has been named an All-American soccer player by the National Soccer Coaches Association of

America (NSCAA). She received her prestigious award at a luncheon, held at the Baltimore Conventions Center on January 16th. “Jillian is an amazing student-athlete whose hard work, dedication and leadership don’t go unnoticed. This award is well-deserved,” said Coach Allyson Wolff. This is not the first award that Colucci has received as a student-athlete. She also holds several regional and state titles, including

League Player of the Year, All-State, All-Region, AllLong Island Team and NYS Player of the Year. Additionally, she is a twoseason athlete, as she is also a member of the school’s varsity basketball team. The Port Jefferson School District extends its congratulations to Jillian Colucci for her latest accomplishment. Photo courtesy of: Port Jefferson School District

Camp planning time has arrived and creative art education company Abrakadoodle is rolling out its Spring Break Camps, Summer Camps and In-School Field Trips to engage and inspire thousands of children with art adventures that will be offered at schools and community sites. Abrakadoodle is pleased to announce two new camp programs for 2016 that are added to its remarkable collection of more than 20 themed camps, meeting the needs of schools and community sites with a variety of fun camp themes and activities through programming designed for children ages 3-12. “We have an exciting

lineup of themed art camp programs that kids will love, the latest of which we developed based upon 2015 survey results from art education directors nationwide,” commented Rosemarie Hartnett, President & Co-Founder of Abrakadoodle. “Summer is such a great time for kids to unleash their creative potential, and our art camps are designed to spark imaginations while enabling students to discover artists, art forms and styles while taking part in music and games in a fun and inspiring environment.” Mad About Movies is a camp for kids who love movies and the kooky characters, animations

and illustrations in them – from minions to dinosaurs to out of this world environments! Marvelous movies and art together make for some movie madness and fun! Campers learn how movies are made, tell movies stories and recreate favorite movie characters. Kids will enjoy making new friends in a creativityboosting environment as they explore animation, storyboards, movie music, games and more. Under the Sea Art Camp is sure to make a big splash with kids as they learn all about jellyfish, octopuses, dolphins, whales and get fanciful with mermaids. Kids will use a variety of interesting art tools

and materials to create fun paintings, collages, sculptures and more. Campers will dive into designing cool art projects, playing games, reading stories, learning about ecology and examining underwater habitats. Abrakadoodle’s numerous popular art camp themes - from Camp Build It and Creepy Crawler’s Camp to ZooDoodle Safari and such classic favorites as Pirates, Princes and

19

Creative Camps Open Princesses and Wild, Wild West, represent a range of interests that engage children in hands-on art and creative discovery at its best. Abrakadoodle works with its site partners to select from among a huge array of popular curriculum and themed camp adventures to ensure that Spring Break Camps, In-School Field Trips and Summer Art Camps meet identified needs and deliver top quality enrichment

experiences. It’s not too late to offer Abrakadoodle art camps and in-school field trips at your location this year. Contact Lisa Albert at 631.366.4ART (4278) or email lalbert@ abrakadoodle.com to inquire. Get the details regarding Abrakadoodle programs and sites or enroll by visiting http:// www.abrakadoodle.com/ ny-long-island-suffolkcounty/.

Don’t Stay Idle Long periods of time spent sitting idly can increase your risk of developing blood clots

in the legs, a potentially fatal condition known as deep-vein thrombosis (DVT). Simple and short
