To encourage adoption of such animals, the Oyster Bay Town Board has waived the normal adoption fee, according to Town Councilwoman Rose Marie Walker. " Occasionally, animals housed in the Town of Oyster Bay's animal shelter are facing their final days due to a terminal illness," Councilwoman Walker stated. " There are people who are willing to adopt these animals so they can spend their last few weeks or months in a loving home. To encourage such adoptions, the Town Board has waived the standard adoption fee of $ 65.00 for dogs and $ 59.00 for cats." Councilwoman Walker noted that there will still be a license fee for adopting a dog. " While the Town of Oyster Bay ' Animal Shelter has all the amenities a cat or dog could want, including the loving attention of the staff, nothing can match having a real home and family they can call their own," Councilwoman Walker stated. " Having a home can make all the difference for a terminally ill animal. There have been documented cases where a dog or cat has outlived even the best doctor's predictions because someone gave it a home in which to spend its final days. All these animals are looking for is that one special individual or family to cherish them for the rest of their lives. The people who adopt these animals are very special, indeed, and it is the Town Board's hope that waiving the adoption fee will encourage more people to adopt a terminally ill animal." For further information, contact the Animal Shelter at 677- 5784. It is open Monday through Saturday, 8: 00 a. m. to 4: 00 p. m.

Vaccine Still Available to Nassau County Physicians Today, the New York State Department of Health ( NYSDOH) announced new guidelines governing the dispensing of flu vaccine. Specifically, the NYSDOH said that flu vaccine distribution could be expanded to include all adults aged 50 and over. However, the Nassau County Department of Health believes that there are still significant numbers of seniors, medically- at- risk and pregnant women who need flu vaccine. Therefore, the Health Department recommends that physicians should continue to focus on vaccinating these high priority patients. " In many areas of the state and country, demand for the flu vaccine has dropped substantially," said Dr. David Ackman, Commissioner of Health. " In Nassau County we continue to hear from seniors, persons with chronic illness and their doctors who say they have not been able to get vaccinated. Therefore, I think it appropriate that we maintain the original focus on high risk persons." This guideline is in keeping with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC) and the NYSDOH recommendations regarding the expansion of the flu vaccine for healthy people, aged 50- 64, only in areas where the designated high priority groups have already been vaccinated. Nassau County is continuing to distribute additional supplies of vaccine to Nassau County physicians for their patients who are 65 years of age or older, medically in need or pregnant. In addition, the department is providing flu vaccine to hospitals, nursing homes and long term care residential facilities to meet their needs. At this time, there are 12,600 doses of flu vaccine available with an additional 10,000 doses expected in mid January. To date, since the shortage was announced in October, Nassau County has provided over 50,000 doses of vaccine to providers in addition to the 7,624 doses administered to seniors at the November 20- 21 weekend flu clinic. Health care providers and residential facilities in need of flu vaccine should contact the Nassau County Department of Health weekdays from 9: 00 am - 4: 30 pm at 571- 3345.

Do you remember the person in your own life, other than your parents, who broadened your horizons, brought a smile to your face, or made life a little more magical? Was it a coach? A favorite teacher? An uncle or a family friend? Who was your mentor? By being a Big Brother, you can do that for a child by simply being you and doing the things you like to do together. Take in a movie, play some video games, shoot some hoops or work on the car together. Take your little brother to his first baseball game. Or teach him how to play golf. The magic of mentoring lies in the little moments you share together. A Big Brother is not a substitute parent but rather an adult friend to a child who needs some extra attention. While you are spending time and having fun together, you'll watch a boy grow up to be a better man just by knowing you. Big Brothers Big Sisters has been the premiere mentoring agency on Long Island since 1977, and has cultivated thousands of relationships for children in need of additional support and guidance. Results from an independent study showed that children who met regularly with their " Bigs" were less likely to skip school, were more confident about their schoolwork, had improved relationships with their parents and peers, and were significantly less likely to engage in negative and destructive behavior. To become a Big Brother, please call 516- 731 - 7880 or visit our web site at www. bbbsli. org. Editor's Notebook Just Gotta Get It Off My Chest Okay, I'll admit it! I'm so excited that American Idol is back for another season and I plan on shutting off my phones and planting myself in my chair for it's weekly airing. Yes, yes I do like reality television shows. I enjoy watching Fear Factor, I've been known to tune into Growing Up Gotti, I've been glued to my seat to find out who the Survivor will be and I feel as though the gents from Orange County Choppers are my extended relatives. Reality shows do entertain me... well some do anyway. However there have been some reality television shows that just don't cut it for me, and the newest edition to the reality show line up just plainly disgusts me. It is called Who's Your Daddy? And while I wouldn ' t bother to tell you what time or channel it is one I will tell you that to me the entire foundation of this show is disgusting. It seems the premise of the show is to have an adoptee pick out who they think their father is from a crop of likely candidates. YUKU! I rather see people sing out of tune, eat cow eyeball or put together a theme motorcycle ANYDAY! I think it is a cruel and almost inhumane to have a person who does not know whom their father is, guess from a lineup of men. This is way to emotional an issue to be a part of any realty series and while The Littlest Groom and When Animals Attack also made me cringe, this attempt, is in my opinion perhaps the crudest yet. The quest to find ones parent is a journey that is filled with all sorts of emotional issues. I cannot imagine a child having to put these " potential dads" through tests and or questioning and then told to make a selection on national television. This show has just stooped a little too low to be considered any kind of entertainment at all even for me, a professed Reality Show fan. Just give me a bowl of popcorn, a cup of tea and an hour of Simon and I'm sure to smile. * * * * * * * * * * And now we move on to Mr. Trump and his newest acquisition Melania. No she's not a new Las Vegas Casino or a new luxury condominium complex... she's his fiancee. It seems THE DONALD, in all his modesty, will be taking a trip down the aisle this weekend to marry his third wife. Melania, so it seems, has spent a lot of time and effort in deciding what she will be wearing on that magical day that she becomes Mrs. " You're Fired". But it not the amount of time that she spent selecting the dress that will surprise you. Rather it's plainly the amount she spent!! The gown is estimated to cost... okay sit down...$ 200,000!!! Can you imagine? A dress, just one dress that you wear for a few hours costs as much as some houses ( okay not any houses in Bethpage, but a house in many other places!) It is said to be littered in crystal Milestones, pearls and more satin than I would need to make every window treatment in my house. Holy cow, I wonder how much the headpiece and shoes cost? I guess it is all relative when you have as much money as Mr. Trump yet the practical side of me asks the question " Is any gown worth $ 200,000 dollars?" I think not but I guess when you look at some of the price tags on many celebrity gowns it would almost make this one seem reasonable. Oh wait I forgot to mention one minor detail. It seems that Melania's $ 200,000 dream wedding dress is so uncomfortable and difficult to wear that she has had another dress made which she will slip into right after she says I do. After all doesn ' t every bride need two wedding dresses ? * * * * * * * * * * Now that all of that is off my chest I can discuss the really important stuff like... how empty my house looks after I take down all of the Christmas decorations, how many New Year's resolutions I have broken already and why I keep misplacing my cell phone.

Each bought a special food to share while we enjoyed the company of each other. The true meaning of the season is the value of friendship. We had no planned program for the evening, then Mr. Settino discussed with us the grave concerns over the tragic traffic accidents that have occurred over the. past few years in our community. It is a sadness that has not only touched Bethpage, but it is one that is all around us. He feels it is time to reevaluate the value of the Drivers Education Program which no longer exists in our public schools. It is time to teach and reinforce the value and importance of good driving skills. Wishing for all a safer new year. Due to the possibility of bad weather in the months of January and February the Society will not hold a regular monthly meeting.

All implemented with very good intentions. January 17, time to celebrate and acknowledge the strides made by Martin Luther King, Jr., towards a more just society for all and to end racial discrimination. February 9, the beginning of the Lenten Season with Ash Wednesday. February 14, Valentines day comes in the middle of winter, a day to warm our hearts with thoughts of love. February 21, Presidents Day. Until 1971 we celebrated the birthdays of President Abraham Lincoln on February 12 and President George Washington on February 22 both as federal holidays. In 1971 President Nixon proclaimed one single federal holiday to be observed on the 3rd Monday in February to honor all past presidents of the United States of America. A day we applaud our great presidents for their efforts to establish and preserve a united country where individuals are valued and to recognize the strength of one nation under God. Stepping back time to 1956, January 8, Sunday night TV programs on CBS were: Lassie, Jack Benny, The Ed Sullivan Show, G. E. Theater and Alfred Hitchcock, on January 31, Tuesday night on NBC were: Dinah Shore, News, Milton Berle, and Jane Wyman Presents. On February 11, Chief Epidemiologist at New York's Memorial Center for Cancer and Allied Diseases, Dr. Ernest Wynder, reports that tobacco smoking is the cause of 80% of their cancer cases. Coffee drinkers were paying an average price of $ 1.03 for 1 lb., of coffee. Happenings in 1956. Community Council Met December 2 - President Teri Black has her data base up and running. The membership was informed of tonight meeting via e- mail. The members of the council are representatives of all organized groups in our community and any person who is interested in keeping informed of the happenings in our community are welcomed to attend the meetings on the first Thursday of the month in the Bethpage Library. • Timothy Zike, from Supervisor Venditto's office of the Town of Oyster Bay, was in attendance and informed us he will continue to attend Community Council meetings to address our concerns about our town. Mr. Zike told us about the legislation that was approved by the Town of Oyster Bay which will provide housing for first time buyers referred to as, Next Generation Housing. The housing will be built on a minimum of 2 acres of land with 12 units per acre. There is a screening process which is being developed to determine who will qualify and the rules governing the purchase. • The council will not meet on the first Thursday in January. We will be informed when Deputy Commissioner of Parks Robert Walker is prepared to address the council on plans for reconfiguring the Bethpage Community Park. The council hopes to have input into the planning. • Vision for the 105 acres of Navy owned property located on the Northrop/ Grumman site was discussed. We all expressed our concerns and disappointment with the presentation of the proposals for redevelopment of this land. We agreed that the volume of housing was not the recommendations of those who volunteered their time to express ideas for the preferred use of the land. We do realize to accomplish the proposals regarding size of buildings and change from industrial to residential use will require zoning changes from the town of Oyster Bay. A task force will be formed by the council to challenge the three proposals. • We are pleased with the new look on our stores on the west side of Broadway with the new facade and awnings. • Construction to repair the damaged bridge on Central Ave. over the Bethpage State Parkway is once again under way. • The concern of the illegal apartments was discussed and the impact they have on our schools, streets and services. War in Iraq is Close to Bethpage - I have permission from Mary McCaffery to share the letters sent to her and jack from their son, Mike, who is now in Tikrit, Iraq. The Fallujah operation is going on now. One of our battalions is down there. The 2.2 infantry is doing well but the fight is much harder than the one we were engaged in Samarra last month. The Marines and Army troops have a lot of support... still, Fallujah is ground zero for beheadings and vehicle bombs. He went on to describe the Iraqi family that had been working for the Army in Tikrit. The husband, wife and two assistants were followed as they left work. Their bodies were found with their limbs severed. After being mutilated, they had been shot. These are the people we are fighting against. One week later.. The war ebbs, and flows here. Two days ago we had 51 attacks, the highest number for one day yet. The last few days of Ramadan, which we are now concluding, are the so- called " Days of Power," martyrs rush to Allah. Among the more benign traditions such as giving to the poor, it is their last chance for guaranteed glory beyond the grace so we're seeing a lot of " one- way" missions ( suicide attacks) from the enemy. Amazingly, we still have a lot of Iraqi National Guard and police working with us. Two police stations were attacked in our area and both times the police fought off the attackers, perhaps knowing that their lives depended on it. I'm sure it looks very bad from back there, but with Bush's victory the enemy knows we are not going to back out soon. The biggest question is still the elections, can the Iraqis actually pull them off. We'll see. My thoughts... it occurred to me the other day that while the United States never found the weapons of mass destruction, we did find evidence of another kind of destruction... the destruction of human life. To me, that is as compelling an argument for our involvement in Iraq as the elusive cache of weapons of mass destruction. We are proud of you Mike, and all the men and women who are in harms way. You're in our prayers, as well as, your mom who is our friend and councilwoman, your dad who taught so many, not only math, but values in Bethpage High School, your brothers, sisters and extended families.

Many parents are lulled into thinking that " everyone is going" and it is an OK thing for them to do. Many are led to believe this is a school sponsored trip. That is far from the case. We all know the inappropriate behavior some teens ( not all) experience on a trip such as this. What we are proposing and working towards is providing a SENIOR WEEK of events with the goal of keeping our Seniors close to home -- SAFE. We've created a brand new school- based committee comprised of Administrators, Teachers, Students and Parents, and are working on many alternative events and have some great ideas such as a Pool Party in the Community Park, a Barbecue, perhaps a Senior Trip, and a breakfast. Nothing is set in stone as of yet, as all of the above requires much planning and, of course, money! In order to achieve this " Senior Week" we have rescheduled our Senior Prom to later in the month of June ( rather than the first week). We have required mandatory attendance at a rehearsal the day after the prom. We believe that surrounding the Prom with so many exciting and fun activities will provide a " not to be missed" environment for the students -- so much fun that " a trip to the shore" will become a thing of the past. Our Principal, John De Tommaso, has spoken to many of the students about these changes. They are beginning to get excited, and are offering their own suggestions for activities. We don't want to let them down. All of the above costs money. The Senior Class is, of course, trying to raise money for their senior events. As a PTSA President, I feel I can share how difficult it is to raise funds at the High School Level. We no longer have fun events where we sell cute items or " holiday gifts or plants" to the students. Our PTSA Unit - operating for the first time in five years in the BLACK ( we're very proud of that) -- has designated $ 500 for Senior Week 2005. We are happy to do so -- we're dedicated to assisting the school district in providing a SAFE, HAPPY Senior Week for all our students. Obviously, $ 500 doesn't go very far and the less money we have, the less we can offer the students to keep them at home in Bethpage. It is with the above in mind that I invite everyone to support a brand new event - our first Community Book Sale. The dates of the event are Thursday, Jan. 20th at 2: 30 pm - 9 pm, Friday, Jan. 21st from 2: 30 pm - 6 pm and on Saturday, Jan. 22nd from 10: 30 am until 3 pm and will be held in the Aux. Gym at the High School. All proceeds will go directly to our 2004/ 05 Senior Class to help make Senior Week happen. We have always appreciated the involvement of the community over the years, and we are confident that everyone will again assist us by attending this worthwhile fundraiser to help keep our Class of 2005 HEALTHY, HAPPY and most of all, SAFE and SOUND.

In time for the holidays, the students with help from their teachers and parent volunteers constructed GEOBread Houses. A GEOBread House is a gingerbread house made by combining math and art. To prepare to make their GEOBread House the students first had to make a blueprint of their house on a piece of paper using a ruler to measure the candy decorations by using a scale to make sure the weight of the candy would not be too heavy for the house they had drawn. Once the GEOBread Houses were complete the students brought them home so that they could share them with their families. a raBfag^ uagjaiagjcU^ Students at Central Boulevard Elementary School in Bethpage measure out the weight of the food they used to complete their GEOBread Houses.

It provides residential services for children at its 64 acre Syosset campus, at seven community- based group home settings, supervised independent living apartments, and foster boarding homes. mercyFirst Preventive Service programs Greater L. I. Running Club's 50 Kilometer Run The Greater Long Island Running Club has announced that a significant portion of the proceeds from its March 6, 2005 Caumsett 50 Kilometer Run will be dedicated to the " Jake Brower Fund - A Miracle in Progress," to help 5 year old Massapequa youngster Jake Brower and his family get their lives back together in the aftermath of a series of serious medical problems that have plagued Jake for over a year. Runners and walkers of all ages and levels of ability are invited to join Run Director Vinny Croce and the Club at Caumsett State Park for the third annual Caumsett Park 50 Kilometer Run to enjoy a wonderful day of running, and to help Jake and his family. The course is a 2.3 mile loop on a paved path, giving everyone the chance to explore this beautiful park with some outstanding scenic views overlooking Long Island Sound. There will be one aid station per loop, fully stocked with water, sports drinks and food snacks. Wild by Nature is generously donating the snacks and drinks, so you can be sure of some quality refreshments! Each entrant will get a top quality long sleeve T shirt. You have your choice of starting your 50 kilometer journey at 8: 00 AM or 10: 00 AM, hopefully resulting in everyone finishing at roughly the same time, and everyone having an equal opportunity to enjoy the post Race Party ( 3: 30PM) and Awards Ceremony ( 4: 00PM). The course will officially close at 4: 00 PM, leaving plenty of time ( 8 hours) for even the slowest runner to finish the 50K distance. Not up to 50K? Hey, it's a loop course, and every entrant is free to make their own distance ( e. g. do nine loops and make it a 21 mile training run). Sign up and be a part of Long Island's only Winter Ultra! " When the going gets tough, the tough surely get going, and I hope that as many tough folks as possible will get going to Caumsett State Park on March 6," observed Run Director | Vinny Croce. " Jake is certainly a tough little kid, and we all need to give a little bit to help Jake and his family back on the road to normal lives!" The entry fee is only $ 26 for entries received by February 28, $ 30 for entries received between March 1 and March 5, and $ 35 on the day of the Run.

In short, the good people at mercyFirst are doing wonderful work, and the Club is privileged and proud to be able to help them in this small way every December. Everyone who donated a toy this year can take special pride in having made the Holidays a bit brighter for a youngster who is having some tough time's! Thanks to the generous donation by Alan Sobel and all the other wonderful people at South Shore Outdoor, the Club had a large quantity of basketballs that it was able to donate to Charlie Nanton, head of the Lakeview Youth Association for use by Lakeview youngsters. Finally, the Club certainly couldn't say " no" when it was asked to distribute a bunch of toys to the children at Maryhaven Center of Hope, so they benefitted from the generosity of the Bethpage Run participants as well.

Good Shepherd Students Are Groovin' In Music and Movement By Maria A. Schulz Students at Good Shepherd Lutheran School in Plainview are getting their groove on in an innovative new class called " Music and Movement," taught by Mrs. Angeline Lorch. Mrs. Lorch, who has been formally trained in dance, developed this program to get 3- and 4- year olds singing, dancing, and swaying to the music. Every week, the children start the program with a friendly " Hello Song" that gets them smiling. Then, they go to the mat for some vigorous stretching, tumbling and skipping as a fun warm- up. Another part of the program features a different musical instrument that the children get to see, touch, and even play. One week, they got to see the Shakeree -- an instrument that comes from West Africa in Nigeria. Mrs. Lorch told the children all about how this unusual instrument is made from fruit! Although the fruit comes in many different sizes, the largest is called AGEBE. The hull of the fruit is hollowed out, and seeds are placed in it. The children were delighted as they handed the Shakeree around their tiny circle, shaking it to produce a sound that was a lot like maracas. The following week, Mrs. Lorch taught the children about the Chilean Rainstick, an instrument used by the Diaguita Indians of Chile when they were praying for rain during the dry South American summers. The rainstick dates back to at least 1000 B. C. and was used in parts of Chile, Africa and Brazil. This long, flute- like instrument is made from dried, thorny Normata cactus and filled with pebbles. The result is that the Rainstick makes a sound just like falling rain - a sound created by the many pebbles bouncing off the thorns. Girls and boys alike were delighted to hand the rainstick to each other, as each of them listened to what sounded like pouring rain. " Every week now, the kids see me in the hall and say, ' What's the instrument this week?'" Mrs. Lorch said . " They are really enjoying themselves." Other instruments used in class are drums, maracas, and cymbals. No matter what the instrument may be, Mrs. Lorch tells the children a simple story about it and teaches them about another part of the world where children love music just as much as they do. When instrument time is over, the children go back to the mat for some relaxing, age- appropriate Yoga. Mrs. Lorch teaches them simple moves, positions and breathing exercises that they can do anywhere. A friendly " Goodbye Song" tells the children that the fun is done, at least for now.

Kissing Bell Place Card Holder - Set of 24 Style 12006NA 1 1
Cute, but not user-friendly I was really excited when I saw these cute bell options for sale. They are the PERFECT sub for favors and seat cards! But when I received them, I was bummed and a little shocked to find that the name card part is already pre-cut, and therefore NOT printer-friendly. There's just no way to print out the names and tables right onto the cards. We tried some with clear labels, but you can tell that there's a label on it. Hand-writing is the best option for these... if you have someone around who writes really, really pretty. Also, the cards only SLIGHTLY fit into the bell holder. It's a thin opening, and the cards are very easily knocked out. While sitting on the table they look very pretty and cute, but don't let your guests grab them by the card!! Overall, these get 4/5 stars. It would have been GREAT if the cards came in a punch-out style sheet that I could slip into my printer. February 22, 2013

Pretty awesome!! The dress was beautiful!!! It was just the perfect length for 5'4" and it fit the bride amazingly!! The only problem we had with the purchase was that the strap was ripped and since we were short on time, we had to stitch it ourselves. They should really be careful of ripped dresses when shipping them out and I would have been much unhappier if we didn't know how to sew clothes. Also the size chart is smaller than the actual dress so get a smaller size than what the chart says or the dress size you normally get! July 4, 2013
Runs Big I am having a very small private wedding where we will be barefoot, and wanted a dress that was elegant but casual enough that it would work. I had a bridesmaid's dress from DB that I loved, with very similar lines, so I ordered this, site unseen. Generally DB runs small, but I ordered my normal everyday clothing size, and it almost won't stay up. When the beading was sewn on, it caught part of the skirt, and so my seamstress had to seam rip and sew some of the beads back on. The beading is much cheaper looking than some other DB dresses I've seen. All in all, I will still feel like a beautiful bride, but I wish that a little more care had been taken with the creation of the dress. June 30, 2013
Not quite what I expected This dress is beautiful, but the neckline was a bit of a disappointment. Under the halter is a shiny fabric (much more so than the picture) that is cut more heart-shaped than I expected. While the picture looked pretty perfect, the actual dress was lower-cut than I wanted. The model also likely wears a size A bra --I am a size 4 with bra-size C, which brought the top of the dress downward. That being said, I loved the beadwork around the waist, and the flow of the dress was exactly what I expected from the picture. It will be lovely for someone else. June 30, 2012
not for me CONS-looked like a nightgown. No boning for support for large breasts (i'm a 38 D). Did nothing to conceal tummy bulge. PROS- Lightweight (good for beach or destination wedding). Price is good. Maybe a good choice for a slender bride who has nothing to hide :) February 29, 2012
