Facts About St. Valentine Saint Valentine is the patron saint of lovers and engaged and married couples. He also is the name behind the holiday that inspires images of red hearts and rose petals in the middle of February. Not much is actually known about St. Valentine because records are sparse. However, these facts have emerged. • St. Valentine could be one of at least three individuals who were

martyred. In fact, some believe there were about a dozen St. Valentines. • Of course St. Valentine is known for presiding over lovers. However, he’s also the patron saint of epilepsy, watching over those who experience seizures associated with the disease. • Visitors to the Basilica of Santa Maria in Rome can find the flower-adorned skull of St. Valentine on display. Other parts of St. Valentine’s skeleton are on display in the Czech Republic, England, France, and Ireland.

• Some people think Geoffrey Chaucer may have invented Valentine’s Day. In his “Parlement of Foules,” he speaks of a tradition of courtly love with the celebration of St. Valentine’s Day. This association became more established after Chaucer’s poem had received widespread attention.

A Brief History Of American Football Almost two-thirds of adults in the United States say they currently watch National Football League games. But American football is no longer relegated to the boundaries of the United States, as it is becoming a global sport. According to the International Federation of American Football, there are 80 countries with organized federations governing the game. Plus, thousands of youth and adult leagues exist all over the world. Even though soccer has long been a global sport, it seems the other kind of “football” is quickly catching up. The sport known as American football was borne out of the English sports of association football (soccer) and rugby. During the late 19th century, elite Northeastern colleges took up the sport, playing a soccer-type game with rules adopted

from the London Football Association. Intercollegiate matches began to spring up at schools such as Rutgers, Princeton, Harvard, and McGill University. Rugby-type rules became preferential among players and spectators. Walter Camp, known affectionately as the “Father of American Football,” transformed the rugby-style game into the one that resembles American football today. Camp brought two key innovations to the game. The opening “scrummage” was eliminated, and a rule was introduced that required a team to give up the ball after failing to advance down the field a specific yardage. Camp also developed the quarterback position, lines of scrimmage, and the scoring scale used in football today. Early games were controversial because of the high rate of injury. Even President Theodore

Roosevelt stepped in to ask collegiate teams to revise regulations to make the game less brutal. The committee overseeing the rules would later become known as the National Collegiate Athletic Association. Thanks largely in part to the popularity of college football, professional

football began to gain traction with the public. The American Professional Football Association was formed in 1920. That league would later become the National Football League. The first televised NFL game occurred in 1939. Eventually, American football’s popularity would explode.

RESIDENTS TURNING 65 SHOULD APPLY FOR PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION - Suffolk County Legislator Tom Donnelly, pictured right, discusses the many benefits seniors are entitled to at a recent “Legislator at Your Library” event at the North Babylon Library. Legislator Donnelly urges residents who are 65 or are turning 65 in 2024 to apply for the Senior Property Tax Exemption before the March 1 deadline. Property Tax Exemption is $58,400 gross (for 2022). If you qualify, the two applications must be filed with your own Town Assessor on or before March 1 of the year you turn 65. Under New York State law, if you turn 65 after March 1 and wait until your birthday to file you will lose the next year’s exemption. In addition, if you were born prior to 1959 and think you are entitled to but not yet receiving STAR benefits, you also must apply before the March 1st deadline. The Enhanced STAR form is RP-425-E and RP-425-IVP; the Senior Citizens Property Tax Exemption form is RP-467. Applications are available online at:

Changemaker Inspires And Empowers Seventh Graders On Jan. 16 and 17, seventh graders and selected staff members at Beach Street and Udall Road middle schools in the West Islip Union Free School District participated in a Changemaker Hub event facilitated by World Savvy. Changemaker Hubs are day-long design thinking experiences that encourage students to explore an

essential question: “How can we transform education to ensure that all young people have a safe and inclusive school where they develop the essential skills they need to thrive in a complex and interconnected world?" Changemaker Hubs aim to inspire positive change and foster a sense of social responsibility among students and staff.

The Changemaker Hub covered a range of topics, including innovative approaches to problemsolving, community engagement and the power of collaboration. The goal is to empower students with the skills and mindset needed to become changemakers in their own lives and communities.

Air Currents Can Carry Pesticides According to the Environmental Protection Agency, air currents can carry pesticides that were applied to nearby properties. That means even people who do not apply pesticides in their lawns and gardens can still be at risk of exposure to these potentially harmful chemicals.

People concerned by the prospect of being exposed to the pesticides being applied by their neighbors can stay indoors with their children and pets while the substances are being applied. Those who live near fields and parks where pesticides are routinely applied can plant hardy, thick-

branched trees to reduce their risk of airborne exposure. The EPA notes that such plants and shrubs can serve as buffers against airborne pesticides, essentially acting as walls around a property that prevent gusty winds from blowing pesticides into yards and gardens.
