Thanksgiving 2012It is easy to say in the aftermath of

super storm Sandy, “...that all things con-sidered, it could have been worse.” Butonce having said this, it does not meanthat the physical damage done to ourhomes, the loss of personal possessionsand irreplaceable memorabilia does notcause us to be angry, to be frustrated andto be seized by uncontrollable sadness.For far too many, things will never be thesame. The storm for many, will be ascene changer. It’s not just today that is

changed, it is tomorrow as well.Without our first responders, our vil-

lage services and the people of the manyneighborhoods in the IncorporatedVillage of Freeport all stepping up,regardless of their own hurt with thor-oughness and thoughtfulness, it mightbe different today in ways too unthink-able to mention. We are a resilient com-munity. We are proud to acknowledgethe caring network that is Freeport.

This Thursday, we celebrate the holi-day of Thanksgiving. Usually we find it

easy to ask for favors but difficult to givethanks. Not this year. This year must bea year of thankfulness and giving.

Let us say together, “HappyThanksgiving!”

– Dr. Lawrence M. Colton, Freeport

Several residents arrived early toreceive a hot meal which was beingserved at 5:00 p.m. Along with freemeals, carbon monoxide detectors,blankets, cases of water and postSandy relief resource informationpackages were distributed.

During this meeting, many residentshad questions for FEMA. MarkNeveau, the highest ranking FEMAofficial for Long Island answered theirquestions and he also commendedMayor Hardwick for conducting thismeeting.

A few residents who are still withoutheat and electrical power vented their

frustration with their current livingconditions. Mayor Hardwick urgedthose residents to seek safety and pro-tection with relatives, friends, or oneof the available shelters in NassauCounty.

Some also vented the lack of accessthey’ve had to information regardingpost Sandy resources. MayorHardwick cited the door-to-door noti-fications that were sent out regarding

He also urged thosewho may not be fully registered orregistered at all to sign up and ensureto include their email address and cellphone numbers. He also mentioned

Helping HandsThanksgiving is traditionally a time of gathering family and

friends where “many hands make light the work.” That is some-thing we should all remember this year. Don’t be like the house-wife who stresses out thinking she has to do it all herself, andeverything must be perfect. Thanksgiving is a lot more fun wheneverybody helps.

So too, if your house has been flooded by the hurricane ornor’easter, it is okay to ask for help, to pick up warm food at theRed Cross or have your laundry done there. Like a tree, you haveto bend or you will break. This year’s Rockefeller CenterChristmas Tree from Mt. Olive, New Jersey, was a Sandy sur-vivor. Be like that tree!

Guest Editorial:Power to the people

by Susan L. Nurni Marconi

“Some things you just can’t make up” is what they say.“Prepare for a storm, it’s gonna be a big one that just may blowus away.”We all know what we are supposed to do to prepare for emergen-cies, right?But we never follow instructions and then panic when the stormis in sight.We have survived the wrath of Gloria, Irene and now we metSandy and her devastation.So many lost their homes, and were flooded, especially those inlow elevation.The seashore was high as it could go; the tide and moon were allin line.All of these occurrences happening at once, we knew it was not agood sign.Power was lost early in the storm, huge trees came crashing to theground,The winds so strong, all became dark and dismal, all you couldhear was sirens and a howling type sound.How could Mother Nature be so destructive, with no mercy for uson Long Island?Those near the shore were swept into the ocean or just coveredwith sand.People waking up without lights, heat, or some with no home atall,What could be done, there is no one even to call.Life as we knew it is over for now, feeling helpless and hopeless,cold and alone.The TV won’t turn on, no batteries at hand, food is spoiling fast,no heat or hot water, not even a dial tone.Is this some sort of really bad joke, or nightmare, as it just does-n’t seem real?Climates are changing, people are frantic worried and sick andstarting to steal.Signs are posted cursing the power authorities as well as the pub-lic officials.

Over 200 Baldwin residents attended ameeting at the Baldwin Middle SchoolFriday night to hear experts and other offi-cials offer hope that the nightmare aroundBarnes Avenue, caused when a countysewer pipe broke and spewed raw sewagefor two days into their basements and ontotheir lawns and streets, will soon come toan end.

The meeting, called by stateAssemblyman Brian Curran, was aresponse to County Executive EdwardMangano’s visit to the street early lastweek to learn firsthand of the threat topublic health and safety the neighborhoodfaces.

The Federal Emergency ManagementAgency, the Environmental ProtectionAgency, the county Department of Health,and the county Department of PublicWorks also joined with Mr. Mangano.

Until the tour, residents believed theyhad not been receiving the attention thesewer spill deserved.

“You’re dealing with problems to yourhome you have never had to deal withbefore,” Mr. Curran said, regarding theurgency of the meeting.

Jerry Brown, commissioner ofSanitation District 2, which collectsgarbage in that neighborhood, said tothose gathered that “Someone is finallytaking notice of what's happened here.”

Mr. Brown received several applausesfor handling the garbage on BarnesAvenue, and First Place, Second Place andThird Place, as well Arlington Avenue andnearby streets.

“We have collected over 5,000 tons ofgarbage,” he told the audience, whichgasped at the news, adding that he movedquickly to collect the refuse because hecouldn’t accept his neighbors having tosee their lifelong belongings sitting in pilesin front of the house useless and ruinedbecause of the recent spillages.

He told The Leader earlier he was anadvocate for the community because thesewer drains had been flooding for yearsduring heavy rainstorms into homes andonto streets, and he was working toward asolution. Indeed, a man at the meeting dur-ing public comments held up documentshe says go back to the year 2000 regardingflooding, with latest document a letter toGovernor Andrew Cuomo.(Editor’s note: On December 12, resi-dents in Sanitation District 2 will go to thepolls to vote on whether to dissolve the

district to reduce taxes, and have it takenover by the Town of Hempstead.)

Louanne Lima, Nassau CountyLegislator Joe Scanell's chief of staff, toldThe Leader that in late 2010, just asCounty Executive Tom Suozzi’s term hadcome to an end, she and other officialsspoke with incoming County ExecutiveEd Mangano DPW officials about sewagebeginning to back up into homes, and wastold the problem would be fixed.

The 4 1/2-inch sewer pipe under BarnesAvenue is connected to the Bay Parksewage treatment plant in East Rockaway.During superstorm Sandy, a wavebreached the compound, knocking out theelectrical panels and stopping pumps frompumping sewage from neighborhoods.

Because earlier solutions to manholecovers being blown off during rainstormsmoved DPW to bolt down the covers,when the pumps stopped, the sewageinstead backed up into residents’ sumppumps, bathtubs, toilets and sinks, andbroke through the pavement, gushing rawsewage into the streets for hours.

“My red brick driveway is now a brownbrick driveway,” remarked MikeBeauchamp, who lives on Barnes Avenuenext to Parsonage Canal.

But his wife Barbara insisted thatsewage wasn’t the most insidious prob-lem. “The oil that has been spilled fromthe home-heating oil tanks, and the chem-icals being used to clean them are worsethan the raw sewage,” she maintained.

Since County Executive Mangano’svisit, crews have begun powerwashing thestreets and have opened up Barnes Avenueto remove further sewage that may havebeen trapped. “They backwashed thesewage into the canal, and haven’t fixedthe pipe,” Mr. Beauchamp continued.

Colleen Walsh, a senior at BaldwinHigh School who started the Baldwinchapter of SPLASH (Stop PollutingLittering And Save the Harbors) said

dead fish were now floating in the canalduring low tide.

Be aggressive with insurance claimsPerhaps the most compelling speaker of

the night was Scott Mager, an insuranceindustry expert who told the audience itmust be aggressive in pursuing its claims.

“Insurance companies are in the busi-ness of collecting premiums, and you willneed to be aggressive in getting what youare entitled to,” he remarked.

One woman in the audience told Mr.Mager that an insurance adjustor – afterher home had been flooded by raw sewageand water – told her that the ceiling sagand rot in the house were because thehouse is old and not related to the presentdamages.

“They all say that,” Mr. Mager told her.He called her situation a perfect case as towhy engineers and other outside profes-sionals may be needed to back up claimsof damage.

“Write them every week, asking aboutthe status. Do not let up, you must committo being aggressive if you want yourclaim,” he implored the audience.

Low-interest loansHowever, he also told the audience that

unless they register with FEMA, theywould not get any relief from the agencyshould insurance claims be insufficient.He said to call the phone number 1-800-621-3362, the FEMA Disaster RecoveryHotline, or to visit www.disasterassis-tance.gov.

He said to take as many photos as nec-essary to prove damage was done, and tohire outside experts such as contractorsand engineers if necessary to back up anyassertions of damage. “Insurance adjustorswork for the insurance companies,” hesaid, “not you.”

He said that FEMA would send a regis-tration form for a small business loan,which residents would need to fill out andreturn – even though they are not small-business people and they aren’t lookingfor a loan.

He remarked that if the Small BusinessAdministration determined ineligibilityfor the loan, it would pass the form back toFEMA for other options.

Greg Dawson, public affairs for SBA,told the audience that low-interest loanscould be provided to residents with whichto rebuild their homes.

“Homeowners could receive a $200,000loan at 1.68%, renters could receive a$40,000 and small businesses couldreceive up to a $2 million loan, also at thesame low-interest rate.”

He reiterated Mr. Mager’s assertion thatit is imperative that homeowners fill outand return the application form sent tothem by FEMA once they register, to beeligible for the loans should their insur-ance be insufficient.

Shelter availabilityAnother woman asked about the oil

damage done to her basement from thespillage of the oil tank in her basement,and about whether it will be a health haz-ard to continue to live in the house. Stillanother said four birds in her home haddied from resperatory failure, and thereare no birds to be seen in the neighbor-hood. “How toxic is this stuff we arebreathing by staying,” she asked.

Pamela Ross, an official from FEMA,said that as electrical crews and FEMAcrews from out of state begin leavingmore hotel rooms were becoming avail-able to affected residents. “They may notbe in the local area, but they will becomeavailable.”

County Legislator Joe Scannell alsotold the woman that the Baldwin SchoolDistrict would pick up any children with-in a prescribed radius should the familybe displaced to live elsewhere during thecleanup of the neighborhood.

The cleanupA pamphlet circulated at the meeting

provided by Assemblyman Curran'soffice itemized actions to be taken onbehalf of the county to clean up theneighborhood, at no cost to the residents:

• JC. Broderick and Associates, anindustrial hygeniest, offering propertyassessments of impact damage, and pro-viding recommendations.

• Branch Services, a remediation com-pany, cleaning up and decontaminatingall sewage-related damage as recom-mended by J.C. Broderick.

• Permitting homeowners to get theirown remediation company to clean up, atcost to the homeowner.

• County DPW providing oversight ofthe remedial work.

• County Department of Health pro-viding oversight of health impacts relat-ed to remedial work.

The Department of Health alsoadvised residents in the affected neigh-borhood to remove children and petsfrom affected areas; properly dispose ofsewage using rubber gloves and bootsduring cleanup and use soap and water;place clothing worn during cleanup intothe wahsh or discard in heavy-dutygarbage bags.

Who pays?FEMA employee John Mills told The

Leader that while County ExecutiveMangano told residents the cost wouldbe born by the county, the county wouldbe reimbursed some 75% from FEMA,and the remaining 25% would be recov-ered by splits among state and other gov-ernmental agencies.

Mr. Curran announced there would beanother meeting at Freeport Library onMonday, November 26, beginning at7:30 p.m.

Power to the peopleEveryone blaming each other for thosewho have no power still.“If you loot I will shoot” is one sign Ijust saw.Will things ever be the same, like gasrationing now it’s the law?Lines we are waiting in for everything itseems, it just doesn't seem fair.This storm, although expected, thedamage left is just too much to bear.Even and odd what’s on your licenseplate, this is a whole new entrance intoHell’s gate.Schools are closed, the system’s down,public transportation has come to a halt.The 7-Eleven and Dunkin’ Donuts haverun out of coffee. Caffeine addicts arenervous wrecks, and the bank has ourmoney locked in the electronic vault.United We Stand is how we have to be.Help your fellow neighbor and friend, asit could be you or me.No one gets away without feeling herwrath.We don’t know what else could possiblylie in our path.Is this some kind of warning or wake-upcall?‘Cause we New Yorkers are resilient, werise up high and stand tall.Maybe this storm has a lesson it is try-ing to teach,

But why did it come with such a cost,like taking away beautiful Long Beach?The marathon was canceled; Halloweenhappened, Election Day came and wentas did the Veterans Day parade.Thanksgiving is around the corner, justbeing grateful for life, home and hearthand the food you made.As many live this type of life every daynot knowing what will be. Life has noguarantees.They have nothing left but are justhappy to be alive and free.May we all realize that we are fragile,and lives can be changed withoutwarning.Survive and sustain, as this could be justthe beginning of what to expect withglobal warming?If the wind and the rain weren’t enough,you say,The nor’easter had to come and snow onus today.It is so sad that our shoreline has beenerased and washed out to sea.If I meet up with a hurricane ever againmay she not be related to the savagestorm named Sandy!God bless all the emergency help andthose who really endured the pain andsuffering of this dame,We will be whole again, weather isunpredictable, and no one is to blame.Power to the People. Lights On!

will share their distinctive contempo-rary Christian music ministry at theHeart of Christmas Show at the NYCBTheatre at Westbury on Thursday,December 6, at 7 p.m.

They recently released their 10th album,a musical rendition of the Divine Mercyprayers for the spring, which also includessome original songs. All proceeds fromalbum and concert sales are donated tocharity, and all proceeds from theDecember 6 show will benefit CatholicCharities’ Mental Health ResidentialProgram for Children. Tickets are $65 or$75 per person.

Mader DeiFather Charles Mangano’s ministry,

Mader Dei, has, to date, raised over$320,000 to benefit a variety of charities,including Little Flower Children’s andFamily Services of New York, CatholicCharities, Carol Baldwin Breast CancerCenter and many others. “We are hopingthat this Christmas show will put it up to$350,000,” Laurie Mangano said.

In Father Mangano’s words, they choseCatholic Charities’ Mental HealthResidential Program for Children for theirupcoming concert because “We wanted todo something for the Diocese… and we’rehaving the men and boys choir of theDiocese of Rockville Centre…in the show.We wanted to do something for children.”

Through the program, individual foster

families live in five individual homesowned by Catholic Charities, and the fam-ilies take in children with mental illness.The children gain support and learn skillsof daily living. “I was so impressed, andthe children were so proud of...whatthey’ve learned. [The foster parents] areself-sacrificing,” said Ms. Mangano.

The golden-throated Father Manganoand his sister have been singing and play-ing music at their church since childhood.Ms. Mangano reminisces: “[FatherCharles] really was tone deaf, but he hadgreat rhythm.” As teenagers, they played ina family band, and Father Mangano’s othersister, Donna, started teaching him guitarchords. He started playing the prayer meet-ing at his church in high school, and LaurieMangano started teaching him how to sing.As his vocals improved tremendously, heand Ms. Mangano started singing and play-ing the guitar for church weddings.

Well received for his singingWhen Father Mangano was ordained in

1990, he began singing and playing theguitar at masses after his homilies.“People were very moved by it, and I wasgetting a lot of positive feedback,” hesaid. In fact, people convinced him torecord two solo albums in the early 1990s,funded by his parish. In 1996, he and hissister Laurie made a Christmas albumwith solos and duets.

By this time, the pair went from parish toparish, singing and playing in the evenings.In 1997, they started a television show onTelecare TV called “God Is Good.” Mostof their shows are in New York, but asword spread, they were invited to perform

in other countries also. One particular placethey mentioned was to a women’s prison inBedford Hills, where Father Mangano saidhe received many letters from those whofelt spiritually moved by the music.

Father Mangano said he is proud of thelevel of professionalism and quality of theshows. The December 6 Christmas showwill include the June Claire JuniorDancers, the Diocesan Men and BoysChoir of Rockville Centre, and a theatergroup called Creative Ministries. “Themessage of the music is about God’s loveand… mercy,” Laurie Mangano said.

Father Mangano considers his ministryto be musical evangelism. “Our evangeliz-ing is entertaining people as well as enrich-

ing the soul… [They are] realizing thepresence of God within them,” he said.“Our main purpose is to bring God to peo-ple and people to God. The byproduct isthe raising of the money for charity,” headded.

People can purchase tickets in person atthe theater box office or by callingTicketmaster at 800-745-3000. TheChurch of the Curé of Ars sells ticketsevery Wednesday between 10 a.m. and 1p.m., and between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.

It’s that time of year again. The leaveshave changed, there’s a chill in the air andthe holiday season is upon us!

To many of us, the holidays are a time toget together with family, friends andcoworkers. It’s a time when family gather-ings and work parties may take precedenceover something that the majority of indi-viduals reading this article share a passionfor: fitness!

And with our love for fitness comes theever-popular regimented nutrition plan thatwe all take pride in.

Now, this doesn’t mean that you have tothrow in the towel during this time of year.It might just take a few minor adjustmentsto your routine to enjoy yourself at socialgatherings, all without missing a beat onyour diet.

Following are five basic tips that mayhelp you get through your office party oryour work holiday dinner without totallysabotaging your hard work and efforts!

Eat your normal diet on party dayIt may seem logical to “bank” calories

throughout the day. But, in reality, skippingbreakfast, lunch and/or normal snacks willonly set you up for disaster. You’ll end upfeeling unfulfilled and ravenous by thetime you hit the big event, overindulging

on things that you might not normally eat!So, before saving up your calories, think

twice. Again, pick a few favorite items andstick to one portion each – you will feelmuch better in the long run.

Eat your veggiesOnce you’re at the party, scope out the

location of the veggie tray. Filling up onsnacks such as raw vegetables will helpyou feel full, allowing you to eat less dur-ing the party.

Beware, though: even eating a little bitof creamy ranch dip can add up to a lot ofcalories in the end! Spoon a small amountof dip onto your plate and once it’s gone,that’s it!

Pick one dessertScan the dessert tray or table during the

social function. Take time to think aboutwhich dessert you would want more thanany other and choose that dessert. It’s easi-er said than done, but having a treat to lookforward to at the end of the evening insteadof gobbling up everything in sight willoffer a sense of greater fulfillment!

Drink alcohol sparinglyAlcohol decreases your willpower!

Some of us do enjoy the occasionalsplurge here and there, but remember:there are healthier alternatives to your

favorite party beverages.A few helpful hints: Add a bit of club

soda to a half glass of wine, stick to diet orcalorie-free mixers for rum and vodka,drink light beer instead of dark, andalways enjoy in moderation. Limit your-self to one or two.

Extra tip: Remind yourself how manymiles you would have to run or bike toburn off all of those extra calories!

Work outExercise makes you feel good, so why

not make it your goal to have an awesomeworkout the morning of – or day of – yoursocial event? Setting a goal and sticking toit will grant you a sense of accomplishmentthroughout the day.

It’s mind over matter at times, and

attending a party in a good frame of mindwill help you stick to your overall goalsand not lose sight of the big picture. Whatbetter way to do that than with a great lift,run or boot camp class!

If you totally fall off the wagon, pick upright where you left off. When you wakeup the following morning tell yourself:“Today is a new day, I’m going to startover right where I left off,” and do just that.No excuses. Just do it!

Your feet may pay for your summer indulgencesby Drs. Leon and Douglas Livingston

The summer was a great time forbarbecues, a cold beer, a glass of wine,a delicious shrimp cocktail and nowtoo many people may have to pay fortheir indulgences.

These foods and others such as duck,shellfish and organ meats, and medicationssuch as diuretics can elevate uric acid lev-els. Elevated uric acid levels can lead to theformation of urate crystals, which can be

trapped in the joints of the foot, most com-monly in the big toe joint.

When these crystals are in a joint theycause exquisite pain, swelling and rednessin and about the involved joint. These arethe symptoms of a gout attack.

Men are more prone to gout attacks butwomen, especially those who are post-menopausal, can also be stricken by gout.Diseases such as diabetes, hypertension,kidney disease, obesity and genetic factorscan also increase a person’s chances of

developing gout.The doctors at Livingston Foot Care

Specialists can often diagnose gout basedon the clinical symptoms. They realizethat a person in severe pain from a goutattack is not interested in waiting for bloodtests to come back to confirm the diagno-sis. A patient wants and needs immediaterelief of the pain.

Livingston Foot Care Specialists podia-trists have treatment modalities that canimmediately relieve the pain and suffering

from a gout attack. They also tutor the per-son on ways to avoid a recurrence. Mostgout attacks can be treated with conserva-tive methods. When the crystals are largeand inhibit joint motion, surgical interven-tion may be necessary.

If you wake up in severe pain withswelling and redness around a joint in yourfoot, visit Livingston Foot Care Specialistsat 1685 Newbridge Road, North Bellmore,or call 826-0103, where emergency care isavailable.

Can you hear me now?by Keri OppenheimerM.S., CCC-A, FAAA

Have you been told you have a hearingloss by those who love you? This expressionof affection, care and concern may be due toyour exhibiting a few common hearing losssymptoms:

• Conversations in noisy public places(restaurants, crowded rooms) are difficult tofollow.

• Soft or whispered speech is difficult tounderstand.

• You sometimes feel people are mum-bling, or not speaking clearly.

• You often have need to ask others tospeak up or repeat themselves.

• you may find yourself less sociallyactive to avoid hearing loss embarrassment

The reality is: hearing loss develops laterin our lives, slowly and gradually. It does notrecede, and is a permanent condition. Nowhere’s the good news: today’s hearing aidsare capable of helping you hear better in sit-uations that are important to you: family,friends and business.

You may have been putting off seeking asolution to your reduced hearing, but a quickvisit to your local hearing center will revealsome very pleasant surprises, a solution toyour hearing loss, and a restoration of your

relationship to the world around you! The hearing center in your community

should have the leading technology in thehearing aid industry. They’ll first perform anexamination for any physical conditions thatmay affect your hearing loss.

Then, using state-of-the-art equipment, acomprehensive hearing test will indicateyour specific hearing-support needs. I didmention some pleasant surprises, didn’t I?

Here’s one: The hearing center you selectshould offer discounts and excellent financ-ing plans. They should also consult yourhealthcare plan to determine your specifichearing aid coverage.

Another nice surprise: many hearing aidsare so discreet...they’re barely visible! So,visit or call your local hearing center, and doask for references. Your new hearing aidswill vastly improve your quality of life, andput an end to the tendency of social isolation.

You’ll soon be engaged in stress-free con-versations, and, no doubt (and to the delightof many), you may now lower the volumeon that TV!

“Crisis time” – that’s how SisterDorothy Lynch of Our HolyRedeemer’s Parish Outreach in

Freeport describes the aftermath of super-storm Sandy. “We have been open everyday since the storm, trying to help peoplewho have nothing.”

She points to the packed waiting roomand the line of people that snakes out thedoor and down the stairs. “Whatever theyneed, if it is here we will give it them,” shesaid.

Our Holy Redeemer Outreach normallyprovides food, clothing and social servicesto about 300 to 400 families a month, butsince Sandy blew through town the need ismuch greater.

Alfonso Martinez, executive director ofOHR Outreach, estimates they are seeing30 to 40 families a day. “People need themost basic things – toilet paper, personalcare items, water, cleaning items and ofcourse food and clothing.”

Vicky, a longtime volunteer who waslucky enough to remain warm and dry dur-ing and after the storm, said she was atOHR on Tuesday, October 30, along withan employee, to see what could be done tohelp others. Within a few days, additionalfood and clothing were available and bythe weekend, Mr. Martinez and OHROutreach volunteers were walking door todoor in South Freeport to find out whatpeople needed.

“We had crews who took orders, thenfilled them, house-by-house,” explainedMr. Martinez. During a recent weekend,they returned in cars loaded up with sup-plies to make distribution faster. “Peopleare going to need our help for a long time,”he said.

Although there appears to be a mountainof supplies – a long room filled with tablesand piles of clothing, a storage area packedwith pallets of water and a well-stockedpantry – Sister Dorothy said “supplies goout as fast as they come in. We are not justserving the people of Freeport, we havepeople coming from all over – Island Park,Long Beach, Inwood, Roosevelt,Hempstead and Uniondale.”

Volunteers are working feverishly to sortclothes, create personal care packages andfood packages as well as other items asneeded.

Hard times seem to bring out the best inpeople, at least at OHR Outreach.Volunteers and gift-givers have been “ablessing,” said Sister Dorothy.

“Island Harvest has been magnificent,”said Mr. Martinez. “They have been hereevery other day to make sure we can getfood to people.”

Donations have come from as far awayas Kentucky and Colorado, and as close asdown the block. Sister parishes have assist-ed them as well as many of the local hous-es of worship (all denominations) andorganizations such as Zion Church and theSalvation Army, among others; St. VincentDe Paul Society; Red Cross; Rotary;Kiwanis; Freeport Schools; the De La SalleSchool; the Village of Freeport;’ and theSyosset Fire Department, among others.

And then there are those individuals whoseemed to just appear out of nowhere andprovide for others.

“We have a couple from RockvilleCentre who have provided us with a mon-etary donation as well as goods and sup-plies and their time,” said Sister Dorothy.

“And we have a young mother whocomes with her six children, the youngestis eight years old, to help out. God pro-vides,” said Sister Dorothy.

Vicki agrees. “People are dropping off

supplies, but they don’t sign in and wedon’t know where they come from,”explained Vicki, “but we are thankful.”

And then there are those volunteers whokeep on working for others despite thereown troubles. One woman, nine monthspregnant and due to have a baby justaround press time, had hurricane troublesbut was there the morning this reporter vis-ited OHR Outreach.

“She has nothing and yet she is here,”said Sister Dorothy. “I told her we wouldmake sure she had a layette. We know sev-eral mothers-to-be in need of baby items.We are still looking for cribs or portablecribs. But suddenly this bassinet appeared,just in time for this [young woman’sbaby’s] birth.”

Somehow despite all this tragedy, babiesstill keep coming into the world.

And how do people know to come toOHR for help when some are still withoutelectric power?

“People know about the Gospel of Jesusand that it is our mission to help others,”said Mr. Martinez. “People may not havethe ability to communicate right now, but

their faith in a better world, in other people,leads them here.”

Editor’s note: At press time, OHROutreach was preparing its Thanksgiving

food bags in addition to personal care bagsand supplies for storm victims.

OHR Outreach is still in need of supplies– paper goods, cleaning supplies, genera-tors, heaters and microwaves, for example.

It’s that time of year again. The leaveshave changed, there’s a chill in the air andthe holiday season is upon us!

To many of us, the holidays are a time toget together with family, friends andcoworkers. It’s a time when family gather-ings and work parties may take precedenceover something that the majority of indi-viduals reading this article share a passionfor: fitness!

And with our love for fitness comes theever-popular regimented nutrition plan thatwe all take pride in.

Now, this doesn’t mean that you have tothrow in the towel during this time of year.It might just take a few minor adjustmentsto your routine to enjoy yourself at socialgatherings, all without missing a beat onyour diet.

Following are five basic tips that mayhelp you get through your office party oryour work holiday dinner without totallysabotaging your hard work and efforts!

Eat your normal diet on party dayIt may seem logical to “bank” calories

throughout the day. But, in reality, skippingbreakfast, lunch and/or normal snacks willonly set you up for disaster. You’ll end upfeeling unfulfilled and ravenous by thetime you hit the big event, overindulgingon things that you might not normally eat!

So, before saving up your calories, thinktwice. Again, pick a few favorite items andstick to one portion each – you will feelmuch better in the long run.

Eat your veggiesOnce you’re at the party, scope out the

location of the veggie tray. Filling up on

snacks such as raw vegetables will helpyou feel full, allowing you to eat less dur-ing the party.

Beware, though: even eating a little bitof creamy ranch dip can add up to a lot ofcalories in the end! Spoon a small amountof dip onto your plate and once it's gone,that's it!

Pick one dessertScan the dessert tray or table during the

social function. Take time to think aboutwhich dessert you would want more thanany other and choose that dessert. It’s easi-er said than done, but having a treat to lookforward to at the end of the evening insteadof gobbling up everything in sight willoffer a sense of greater fulfillment!

Drink alcohol sparinglyAlcohol decreases your willpower!

Some of us do enjoy the occasional splurgehere and there, but remember: there arehealthier alternatives to your favorite partybeverages.

A few helpful hints: Add a bit of clubsoda to a half glass of wine, stick to diet orcalorie-free mixers for rum and vodka,drink light beer instead of dark, and alwaysenjoy in moderation. Limit yourself to oneor two.

Extra tip: Remind yourself how manymiles you would have to run or bike toburn off all of those extra calories!

Work outExercise makes you feel good so why

not make it your goal to have an awesomeworkout the morning of – or day of – yoursocial event? Setting a goal and sticking toit will grant you a sense of accomplishmentthroughout the day.

It’s mind over matter at times, andattending a party in a good frame of mindwill help you stick to your overall goalsand not lose sight of the big picture. Whatbetter way to do that than with a great lift,run or boot camp class!

If you totally fall off the wagon, pick upright where you left off. When you wakeup the following morning tell yourself:“Today is a new day, I’m going to start

over right where I left off,” and do just that.No excuses. Just do it!

On Sunday, November 25, Dr.Robin Youngson, author of “Time toCare” and an expert on compassionatecare and patient safety, will be signingcopies of his book and discussing waysthat medical professionals and patients'families can improve communicationfor better outcomes.

The event will take place at theSouth Nassau Unitarian UniversalistCongregation in Freeport at 3 p.m. It issponsored by PULSE of New York, anadvocacy organization working toincrease patient safety.

“We have all heard stories of patientswho die or are made sicker while undermedical care as a result of poor com-munication or inadequate safeguards,”said Pulse leader Ilene Corina.
