Stroke Facts - Information from Judy's Run For Stroke Awareness ... Statistics From National Stroke Association
September is Atrial Fibrillation Awareness Month. Atrial Fibrillation (AFIB) is an irregular heartbeat and a common type of heart arrhythmia. Why is AFIB important? It’s a major risk factor for stroke and is responsible for 15 to 20 percent of ischemic strokes. Each year, more women die from stroke than men do, and women who have Afib have a more pronounced risk for stroke than men do.

Isn't that above the cap? Funny, when another news source mentioned 5 districts that are breaking…Read More the cap they didn't mention Smithtown. Dn't worry, the district will bully and scare the parents into voting yes by threatening programs instead of doing what they need to do which is reduce administrative costs.

We can all make a statement one way or another when we vote. However, that statement should be made…Read More on a state level not the local level. Boards of Ed are powerless to do any real cost cutting. The state needs to take this on. We need real reform in Albany to reduce the ever increasing pensions and life long benefits that educators enjoy. Combine this with letting Albany decide salary increases for all educators and we can guaranty tax reductions over the next few years. Its that simple, Boards cannot do these. Lets get Albany to move on these NOW!
