Members of P.J. Gelinas Junior High School’s Science Olympiad team were invited to visit the local branch office of the National Weather Service (NWS) as a result of team members Liam Sauer’s and Andrew Zhang’s first-place medal in the MeteorologyClimate event at the 2015 National Science Olympiad Tournament. During the visit, nine members of the 2015 team,
along with their parents and team advisor/Gelinas science department chairperson Gary Vorwald, toured the National Weather Service office located on the campus of Brookhaven National Labs in Upton, NY. Upon arrival they were greeted by meteorologist Gary Conte, who spoke with them about how the NWS forecasts and prepares for severe weather. The group
was also invited to tour the facility where weather data is collected and forecasts are developed. The visit ended with a launch of a weather balloon, which is launched at over 150 sites across the United States twice each day. It carries instruments through the atmosphere and measures temperature, humidity, air pressure, and wind.

Shelters Need You r Help
I would like to br ing some much ne eded attention to our local animal shelters. This past summer, I decided to volunteer at the Babylon Animal Shelter. I go there three days a we ek and walk the dogs that are there, hoping th at one day someone will co me in and take them home. Many of these dogs are large breeds an d very excited to see anyo ne that shows up to give them some love. To everyone, I say pleas e adopt a shelter pet (cats to o), and if you aren’t looking to adopt, you could volunteer to help mak e their stay at the shelter just a little bit bette r. They do not get out of th eir cages unless vo lun teers come in. It is one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done. ~ Grace Hempfling, Co piague

If you’re looking for a pet this holiday season - Don’t Shop, ADOPT! Animal educator and journalist Victoria Bonavita was recently given a tour of the beautiful puppies, kittens, dogs and cats waiting for their forever homes at North Shore Animal league America in Port Washington. To help make your dream of owning a pet come true, North Shore Animal League America is offering FREE pet adoptions December 12th and 13th between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. and Christmas Eve between 9:00 and 11:00 a.m. In addition, the adoption fee is always waived for seniors 60 and over who adopt a pet that is at least a year old. Kennel manager Rachael Rudman says they are very proud to be the world’s largest “no kill” shelter. They have hundreds of beautiful pets that you can take home for the holidays with a huge assortment of pure and mixed breeds that they call “mutt-i-grees.”
The shelter offers a wonderful mix of junior and senior pets that are just irresistible. And when you’re not sure, you can ask one of the many experts there to help you choose a breed that’s best for your lifestyle and then guide you through the rest of the adoption process. After adoption you will find everything you need to care for your pet on-site. They have their own pet store so you can get whatever care products you’ll need before leaving. And for the continued health of your pet they have their own veterinarian services. Their Pet Health Care Center is
open 7 days a week and welcomes all animals. And for those pets adopted from North Shore Animal League America you will receive a special discount. Also keep in mind the Smithtown Animal Shelter and Adoption Center and the Babylon Animal Adoption and Rescue Center have lots of local pets that need homes as well. For more information about North Shore Animal League America, go to www. AnimalLeague.org and to see Victoria’s educational adoption tour go to www. VictoriasAmazingWorld. com.

MY LIFE STORY
SUBMITTED BY: FERNANDO BARRETO AGUILAR, AGE 12, BAY SHORE MIDDLE SCHOOL
Many people judge how I look and assume things about me that is totally wrong. I have lots of tales to tell. Even the people who think they know me aren’t even close. Let’s begin at the beginning. When I was born, I was named Fernando*. My mom was happy that she had another son. I was her third. Shortly after, my father started abusing my two brothers and was sent to jail. At the time, I was too young to know what was going on. Later, when I found out about it, I hated that guy. I don’t even consider him a good father because of what he has done. I learned to hate my own
name because I was named after him. I decided to use my creativity to rename myself. When I tell my tale to others and they laugh, do I feel bad? No, because words are words and they don’t affect me. My talent for writing was sparked by a close friend named Amy*. She is very kind toward others and a little shy. We have been friends for a long time; we respect and trust each other to the max. We both share the love of writing. At first I felt writing was useless work. After a couple of tries, I gave in and found it fun to write. I think it’s unique to express myself in words. My hobbies, besides writing,
include playing video games and streaming on Twitch. Like most people, I wish I could change some of the things that I have done. People ask me what I want to do when I grow up. Some people say, “You’ll be a bum on the streets.” I don’t listen to them because they’re the same ones who think drugs are good. After everything I’ve learned, there is no better mystery than life itself. What’s the point of living? It’s to achieve your life’s goals. My goal is to be a great YouTuber; I know I can. * Names changed to protect students’ right to privacy.

Keeping the Family Healthy Family holiday traditions include trimming trees, lighting candles, and making traditional foods and sweets we know and love. But it is also a time when adults and children can overindulge. And today, with about one in three American kids and teens overweight or obese, it is more important than ever to make smart, heart
healthy choices for the entire family. The American Heart Association has tips to keep your family and your meals healthy during holiday celebrations and keep stress at a minimum. Try healthy substitutes. Family recipes can taste just as good when you try these simple tricks: During Baking: • Instead of butter,

substitute equal parts cinnamon-flavored, no-sugar-added applesauce. • Instead of sugar, use a lower-calorie sugar substitute. • Instead of whole or heavy cream, substitute low-fat or skim milk. • Instead of using only white flour, use half white and half wholewheat flour. When Cooking: • Use vegetable oils such as olive oil instead of butter (even in your mashed potatoes). • Use herbs and spices, like rosemary and cloves, to flavor dishes instead of butter and salt. • Use whole-grain breads and pastas instead of white. Stay Active: The American Heart Association recommends that healthy children, age 2 and older, participate in an hour of moderate to vigorous activity every day. Finding activities the entire family can participate in such as a family walk can become a healthy holiday tradition for the entire family. For every two hours of vigorous activity, adults can add one year to their life expectancy. So make sure and keep your scheduled time at the gym. Stress: Stress can be at its highest level when you are trying to take care of the family, cook, clean and prepare for any guests. To keep stress to a minimum try some of these tips: Plan ahead to help manage your time. • Focus on one task at a time • Get the kids to help with chores • Take time to relax • Get enough sleep

Messages of Hope
Following the tragedy that Paris experienced this November, 42 Ward Melville High School students worked collaboratively to create a profoundly emotional video message for the citizens of that nation. The piece
came together as a result of a request received by teacher Cortney Weisman from Class of 2007 alumni and WBLI on-air morning show correspondent “John Online” Mingione. The students, which primarily came from
the school’s Advanced Placement French and French D classes, worked with teachers Eric Jourdain and Melissa Quiros to translate messages of hope, peace and inspiration submitted by Long Island listeners of the WBLI and WBAB radio stations. Many of the students then volunteered to record the translated messages and appear in a video production for the Long Island radio. A copy of the video, which was subsequently sent to a radio station in Paris for broadcast, can be seen here: http://www.wbli. com/news/entertainment/ morning-show/longisland-paris/npPrM/ Photo courtesy of: Three Village Central School District

The school’s College and Career Prep class recently had the chance to visit and explore the campus of Stony Brook University. During a walking tour, the students gained a better
understanding of the large and diverse school campus and sought answers to individual questions during a 45-minute question and answer session with a college admissions officer. Students in Dorothy Burns’ Sports and Entertainment Marketing class learned about the business side of the Long Island Ducks baseball team during a workshop
with Sean Smith, an account executive for the LI Ducks. Throughout the program, Mr. Smith spoke about the company’s marketing efforts, use of promotional materials, the team’s target market, how they build brand awareness, the importance of sponsorships for the company and the different careers available in the field of sports marketing.

Keeping the Family Healthy Continued From 6 Getting enough sleep can impact your heart health. The American Heart Association recommends adults get six to eight hours of sleep per night. Over the holiday, get into bed early to give yourself enough time to wind down after your day and to fall asleep faster and more soundly. Also, a recent sleep study of teenagers found that greater variability in dayto-day sleep habits was associated with higher calories consumed throughout the day. So try and keep a child’s scheduled bedtime the same when possible. For more tips and information on keeping your family healthy during the holidays go to www.heart.org/kids.

to the store each year – they either A) pick out something “useful” like an appliance – toaster, vacuum, the big-screen TV they always wanted; or B) buy everything in sight to make up for their lack of shopping prowess during the rest of the year. Once the purchases are made, there’s the small matter of gift-wrapping. Some men don’t even attempt the impossible and instead settle for a large bow on its own; others give it a whirl and wind up with a mass of crumpled wrapping paper, covered in tape, with only about 75% of the box actually, you know, wrapped.
Talent, indeed. I used to think it was just my father who waited until Christmas Eve to shop, until I joined him one year and witnessed firsthand the wall-to-wall lines of men with a similar problem – how to complete all their shopping and still make it home in time for the holiday dinner. So, this Christmas Eve, if you happen to be out making some last minute purchases, don’t stress out – those men standing on line next to you are just getting started. Plus, they still have to wrap. A column for the ages.

Blood Donations Needed The American Red Cross encourages eligible donors to end the year with real meaning by donating blood for hospital patients in need. Holiday activities, severe weather and seasonal illnesses, like the flu, can pull people away from their regular blood donation schedules. This creates a greater need for blood donations this time of year, especially around the winter holidays. To encourage donations, all those who come to donate December 23rd,
2015, through January 3rd, 2016, will get a longsleeve Red Cross T-shirt, while supplies last. Jamie Czesak made her first blood donation on December 27th, 2013. “As I spent Christmas with my family, I realized how lucky I was to have my health and how we never really know when our last Christmas will be. I decided that I would face my fears and do one of the few things I can do to help save someone’s life donate blood.” Healthy donors with all
blood types are needed, especially those with types AB, O, B negative and A negative. To make an appointment to donate blood, download the free Red Cross Blood Donor App from app stores, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1.800.RED CROSS (1.800.733.2767). Donors can now use the Blood Donor App to access their donor card and view vital signs from previous donations. Upcoming Blood Donation Opportunities: Nassau
Port Washington December 18th, from 3:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Port Washington Library 1 Library Drive *** Suffolk Stony Brook December 21st, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Stony Brook Hospital 101 Nicolls Road How to Donate Blood Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1.800.RED CROSS
(1.800.733.2767) to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental consent in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and
younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements. Blood donors can now save time at their next donation by using RapidPass to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, prior to arriving at the blood drive. To get started, visit redcrossblood.org/ RapidPass and follow the instructions on the site.

Summit a Success the latest developments in detection, treatment and reconstruction. Hundreds of guests attended this year’s program which was hosted by Kristin Thorne, WABCTV Eyewitness News Correspondent. Jennifer Griffin, National Security Correspondent for Fox News Channel and breast cancer survivor, served as keynote speaker and presented a touching speech titled “Entering the Cancer War Zone.” “Fighting breast cancer is as much psychological as it is a physical fight. And the one thing I learned is that feeling beautiful through that process is very important and may even affect the outcome of the treatment,” explained
Griffin. For her efforts in the fight against cancer, Griffin received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the LI Breast Cancer Summit. The Breast Cancer Summit was created to assist those diagnosed with breast cancer, to bring together community and resources, and offer knowledge and support. The event attracts hundreds of attendees, including cancer experts, researchers, doctors, nurses, breast cancer survivors, and advocacy groups. The program covers such topics as innovative breast cancer treatment, the latest cancer research updates and care, and progress achieved in the fight against cancer.
Toys for Tots Donation Drive Westy Self Storage continues its support of the Toys for Tots Donation Drive for the 17th year. This drive will run until December 18th. Westy in East Northport is hosting this drive as the designated drop off location for donations. In addition to collection, Westy will also provide storage for the donations as well as assist with final delivery. The U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program collects new, unwrapped toys for less fortunate children in the local communities. A shiny new toy delivers the message of hope to needy youngsters. This act of kindness will help motivate the children to grow into responsible, productive,
patriotic citizens and community leaders. Please help your community by dropping off a donation at Westy Self Storage in East Northport located at 4049 Jericho Turnpike. Toys for Tots began in 1947 when the wife of Major Bill Hendricks, USMCR, handcrafted a Raggedy Ann doll and asked her husband to deliver the doll to an organization which would give it to a needy child at Christmas. When they realized that no such organization existed, they decided to start one. That Christmas, a group of Marine Reservists in Los Angeles collected and distributed 5,000 toys to needy children. That pilot program was so successful that the Marine Corps
adopted Toys for Tots in 1948 and expanded it into a nationwide campaign and since then has distributed over 370 million toys to more than 173 million children. 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. “It is our pleasure to continue to participate in Toys for Tots as each child deserves a Christmas,” said Tim Mincin, District Director of Westy Self Storage, East Northport location.
The program was livestreamed for those who may not be well enough to attend the program in person. “It’s important to the practice to do our part and educate the community. We bring together patients, support groups, and medical professionals, and provide a public forum for learning and networking,” explains Roger L. Simpson, MD, FACS, president of Long Island Plastic Surgical Group. In 2009 Griffin received the news which would change her life and become the biggest battle she would ever fight. She was diagnosed with stage 3 Triple Negative Breast Cancer. After 17 rounds of chemotherapy,
a double mastectomy and radiation treatments, she was declared in remission. She is a strong advocate for breast cancer awareness. “Since my return to work after cancer, I have thrown myself into working with wounded warriors, especially amputees and those suffering from posttraumatic stress - perhaps we share a bit of common ground - scars inside and out....I may look fully healed but there are triggers that take me back to that traumatic time. Programs such as this Breast Cancer Summit are vitally important resources for those touched by this disease so we can learn what resources exist and how we can access them,” said Griffin. “I am
honored to be a part of such an important event that attracts leading experts who share insight and information with the public.” Griffin joined Fox News Channel (FNC) in October 1999 as a Jerusalem-based correspondent. Since 2007 Griffin has reported daily from the Pentagon where she questions senior military leaders, travels to war zones with the Joint Chiefs and Secretaries of Defense, and reports on all aspects of the military.

Students Join Forces High school, middle school and elementary school students in the Port Jefferson School District teamed up to build a new native species garden in front of the BOCES

the garden bed in an environmentally-friendly way and distributed mulch. The students plan to return in the spring to plant a multitude of native plant species.
