CONGRATS! OMA Names Carol Bintz Professional of the Year Carol Bintz, chief operating officer of the Toledo Museum of Art, has been named Professional of the Year by the Ohio Museum Association. The award was presented during the organization’s recent statewide conference. The honor, recognizing professional accomplishments and service by an OMA member institution, is presented for outstanding leadership and professional service over an extended period of time; demonstrating continual growth and development of an organization or specific programs. Bintz has been with the Toledo Museum of Art since 1991. As chief operating officer she played a crucial role overseeing construction of the award-winning Glass Pavilion® and in making the Museum a leader in the use of green technologies. Under her guidance the institution’s move to use solar power, LED lighting and microturbine generators has made TMA a leader in retrofitting its facilities to reduce operating costs. The Museum went “off the grid” for the first time in 2013, returning more energy to the system than it used.

Hometown Girl Named Employee of the Year at Orchard Villa Oregon resident, Allison Thompson, remembers when Orchard Villa’s skilled nursing community was being built. It was 1995 as a Clay High School senior, she was driving by on her way to exercise at the YMCA. “I saw the construction site and the big sign and wondered about working there one day,” says Allison, who was planning to attend nursing school after graduation. One year later, Allison joined Orchard Villa as a nursing assistant. She’s still there today, now as a registered nurse, daytime nursing manager and the company’s 2016 Employee of the Year. Allison was honored with the award in April at the Employee of the Year Dinner for Legacy Health Services, the company that operates Orchard Villa. Orchard Villa provides short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, skilled nursing, and soon, assisted living along with specialized programs such as orthopedic rehabilitation, respiratory care, cardiac programming, complex wound treatment, respite and hospice care. Orchard Villa is one of 11 skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities operated by Legacy Health Services throughout Northern Ohio. The family-owned company is based in Parma, Ohio, and has a staff of more than 2,500 nurses; nursing assistants; certified nurse practitioners; andphysical, occupational and speech therapists.

In Waubeka, Wisconsin, in 1885 Bernard John Cigrand, a nineteen year old school teacher in a one room school, had his students write essays on what the flag meant to them. He called June 14th the flag’s birthday. Stony Hill School is now a historical site. From that day on Cigrand dedicated himself to inspire his students and all Americans, in the real meaning and majesty of our flag.

Generations United

Communicating Across the Gap By Chris Watson

ROLODEX

dial•up

We try to refrain from saying, “that isn’t the way we use to do it”, but we find ourselves muttering those words more frequently. Then, inevitably, we get the “look”, but with an eye roll evidencing the difference between our generation and theirs. It is the moment when we realize that there truly is a generation gap. Modern technology has accentuated the gap. A World War II veteran, who knew a radio as a large box with tubes, can now video call his great-grandchildren with a cell phone. A Baby Boomer, who lived and breathed 45 RPM disks, vinyl, and liner notes now accesses thousands of those same “records” stored on a device the size of a match book. A match book, by the way, is something a Millennial (the generation born after 1990, coming of age in the new millennium) wouldn’t understand. Who needs matches when you have “vaping”?

Generations Defined

The terms thrown around for years by marketing experts and journalists echo in our pop culture: Traditionalists or Greatest Generations ( born from 1900-1945), Baby-Boomers or Boomers (1945-1964), Gen X (1965-1979), the Millennials (1980 - 2000), and our latest generational addition, iGen. Internest charts abound defining the influences in each generation. For the Greatest Generation it is WW II. Boomers? Civil rights and the Vietnam War. Gen X? Watergate, the energy crisis, end of the cold war. Millennials? School shootings, AIDS, and 9/11. Yet all of these events are shared throughout the generations. People born in 1940 remember Watergate and those born in 1977 remember 9/11. So why the divide? Why paint a group of individuals with so broad of a brush? “People always want to know how things relate to them personally,” states Lynnette Werning, President of Blue Water Communications. “Whether the subject is an art exhibit, a new article of clothing, music or everyday news, how it impacts individual

lives is always paramount in communication.” Werning, whose company works extensively with the Toledo Museum of Art, continues. “Word of mouth is still a powerful way of communicating whether you are 20 or 80. People are interested in what their friends are interested in. If your friends do it, you are more likely to do it as well.” That makes it easy, unfortunately, to group people into clusters. It defines generations.

More Similar than Different

A common sight in a computer or electronics store is a Millennial teaching a Baby Boomer about a new piece of technology. While it might seem this is an exmple of a generation gap, when both generations share a bond where something tangible needs to be taught and learned - the gap disappears. According to Werning, this is true for events as well. “It is not unusual at an event or exhibit at the museum to see three generations (grandparents, parents, and kids) show up to an event together. They may walk away with differing impressions of the exhibition but they all come to have their lives enriched and their minds stimulated by art and culture. As long as the exhibit finds a way to connect directly with the attendee, generation gaps evaporate.” Art, news, desire, values, jobs, fears, patriotism, sports, and a host of other issues and concerns are trans-generational. Our perspective might be slightly different but the underlying concerns are the same. Retirement is a primary example. For those, born before WW II, pensions were the dominant retirement plan. From Gen X forward, pensions are a shrinking option, often non existent. Concern over a secure retirement is woven throughout the generations. When the company you retired from is sold to a multinational equity group, the Korean War Veteran will ask, “What is going to happen to my pension?” When the NASDAQ has a substantial drop in a day a Gen X’er will ask, “What is going to happen to my 401K?” It is the same question. They might seek their answers in different ways, one waiting for the mail while the other checks on line, but they seek similar answers. Werning agrees. “In communication, regardless of age or generation, you still have to deliver messages and get people to respond to your message. Your delivery mechanism might change but the message and the call to action remains. It might be easier to reach certain groups through print and another through broadcast, but the medium doesn’t change the fact that you want them to listen.”

Communications Through the Years

How to Make Friends with Your Grandparents and Parents By Daniel Intrater Communicating across the generational divide allows a lot to be learned. As technology advances, it becomes harder for the Generation XYZers (1965-Present) to communicate with Baby Boomers and elder generations.

Generations Blended

Memories of downtown Toledo illustrate the generational divides and similarities. The Greatest Generation, and most Boomers, remember downtown Toledo as shopping at places like The Lion Store (eventually bought by Dillard’s) and Macy’s (formerly LaSalle’s Department Store). They remember naming towering buildings like One Seagate and The Toledo Edison Building and identifying those buildings as world headquarters of Fortune 500 companies. Downtown was the place to be.

Learning from The Silent Generation

Grandparents are a valuable source of information. Ever since I can remember, when I would go over to my grandparents house, I was taught one or two historical facts. Grandparents are great sources of information — they lived through historical events and can share facts and memories about them.

However, many Boomers and certainly most Gen Xers readily identify downtown as a scene of corporate flight and project failure. Many companies have left the downtown area to move to the suburbs and it is not uncommon to hear someone talk, about a shopping area called “Portside”, something which most Millennials don’t even know existed.

No generation likes to be categorized. Millennials are particularly sensitive to the subject, but the feeling is ubiquitous throughout age groups.Yet, if you go by the demographic charts, it is easy to see why each generation doesn’t like to be identified as a generation. Baby Boomers view themselves as much too transformational to be lumped into a group. Gen X sees itself as too independent to be part of the crowd while Millennials think the term is pejorative. Werning identifies why we are uncomfortable with labels. “I think that anytime you use stereotypes to communicate it is wrong. People simply don’t fit into categories as neatly as the demographic charts would like.” She continues, “We are all unique individuals, If you engage us as individuals, not as some hypothetical generation, we will respond.”

Of course, those perceptions are continuing to change and blend across generations. Ask almost anyone and they will tell you downtown is cool. After all, downtown is where you see the Mudhens, the Walleye, and other fun events from the circus to Disney on Ice. Millennials have rediscovered the area and are hanging out there and moving in by the score. The revitalization of the Warehouse District, the recently passed entertainment zone along the Adams Street Corridor, and the opening of Hensville adjacent to 5/3 Field are just a few of the projects that are redefining downtown. Across generational lines, people are enjoying downtown again.

I learned many skillls from my grandparents. I have never been much of a sewer or gardener. Nevertheless, through the years, my grandmother has taught me both. I also learned some fun games, such as bridge and Maj-Jong. If you master the game, they will invite you to come play with their friends...for money! Grandparents have wisdom. They have overcome obstacles and experienced many events to get to where they are. Sitting down and talking with my grandparents, I learn something new from each conversation. From family history to emotional support, they know it all. But don’t try to force them into using technology, such as phones and laptops. Let them ease into it and, ultimately, communicate with them where they are comfortable.

What you Can Learn from The Baby Boomers

Parents are also a great source of information and knowledge. My parents have taught me the importance of religion, manners, multitasking, patience and love, all skills that are important to my development. Parental guidance can encourage us to follow their chosen religious path and model how to handle yourself in public. Parents are some of the best multi-taskers on the planet. From daily employment, to cooking, to laundry to loving, they do it all concurrently. Some parents even multi-task with a smile, or while cracking a joke! “Patience is a virtue” is a common saying. Observing parents can lead to learning about patience. They teach by example: waiting for you to potty train, at appointments or at activities. Parents teach unconditional love. The best way to honor your parents is to be patient with them as they age and face challenges. Remember to reciprocate the unconditional love and patience that was shown to you!

Fashion Style Tips for Swimwear Oh No – Summer’s Here

by Pat Nowak Most women in our image conscious society are concerned about their bodies. When bathing suit season arrives, panic can ensue. Now, at the beginning of June, with summer arriving and with those winter pounds still hanging around, some feel it is time for concern. But this year’s news about bathing suits runs the gamut from stylish two piece high-waisted swimwear to athleisure wears’ popularity - Sporty swimwear for women that aren’t afraid to break a sweat.

Ruffles help mask boyish figures

Ruffles, forals and stripes

Ruffles continue their beachfront reign and floral prints dominate, especially those that feature this summer’s hot color, turquoise. Stripes, always popular, continue to trend this year. For those a little more daring, retro-inspired suits have been updated with sheer paneling and strategically placed cut-outs. Fringe, back in the spotlight for a number of seasons in the ready-to-wear market, has swimwear designers taking note. If a tasseled suit isn’t your thing, opt for a fringe cover-up. And finally a throwback to the 90’s, simplify life with minimal swimwear – those basic styles in one piece looks are back in the limelight – basic no longer means boring. No matter what your style, the most important thing to remember is to shop for your shape. First make sure the fit is good – it might be wise to go up one size. Look for a fit that is snug, but not tight, and make sure that your bust and butt are firmly in the suit – flesh spilling over is not an appealing look. Make sure to stretch, sit down and, if wearing a strapless top, put your hands over your head to make sure the top is stable.

Plunging neckline takes attention from the tummy

DON’T FORGET SUNSCREEN... YOUR BEST ACCESSORY!

To get your most flattering fit, remember

If you have a boyish figure aim to create curves with ruffles, patterns and color blocking. If you are blessed with curves make sure you have support both with an underwire and be cautious of delicate fabrics as they don’t have the structure you need. If you are ample at the hips add width at the top with special detailing, brighter colors or ruching. A high cut on a suit makes your legs look longer and in better shape. If you are small busted, put volume on the top with padding or ruffles to make your top seem fuller. If you are fuller on top you might want to use a built in or a push up bra, remembering to keep your cleavage under control. If you want to look taller make sure to use vertical lines with high cut bottoms, and, if you have a tummy, as most of us do, utilize a plunging neckline to take the attention from the stomach area. If you need a plus size remember that fitted fabric in solid colors is stylish. Also consider spandex – it is great for any swim suit as it moves with you. In general a darker color will complement all sizes and shapes and some nice alternatives to black (always a yes whether one piece or two) are brown, purple, navy, deep blue or dark green. Make sure this year you are ready for the pool. These tips will insure that your summer fun is beach party perfect.

Finance Banking Fees Draining Your Account Education Saves You Money Pat Nowak Banks make their money by charging fees to account holders. In 2015, 628 banks, subject, to the new reporting rules revealed that they made more than $11 billion in overdraft and nonsufficient funds fees, accounting for 8% of their total net income. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau continues to look closely at overdraft fees, but it’s up to you to know which bank fees can leave the biggest hole in your wallet, and how best to avoid them.

Overdraft Fees

When you initiate a transaction that requires more money than what’s in your account, your bank may float you a loan to cover it. But you’ll pay dearly for this convenience. The granddaddy of bank fees, overdraft fees cost a median $35 a pop. • Opt out. You’re not required to participate in any sort of overdraft program. This way, you’ll simply be denied when you try to initiate a point-of-sale or ATM transaction that overdraws your account. Beware that you still may have to pay a nonsufficient funds fee on check transactions or certain recurring transactions such as automatic bill pay. • Choose overdraft transfers.

Overdraft transfers let you link a second account, such as savings or a line of credit, to your checking account. Then, the next time you overdraw your account, the bank covers your request with funds from the linked account.

• Police your spending more carefully. Ideally, you’ll keep

enough of a cushion in your checking account to avoid worrying about overdraft fees, but this might not be realistic for everyone. Make sure you take advantage of customizable account alerts. Practically every major bank will let you receive an alert when your account balance dips below a designated amount.

Account maintenance fees

This vague monthly fee exists to cover administrative costs on your account. Maintenance fees average $13.00 a month. It’s easy to avoid monthly maintenance fees if you do your homework:

shelling out a $5 fee next time you need a quick $50 or $60, here are some common-sense strategies that will help minimize ATM fees:

• Find a free checking account. Free checking accounts

do still exist. Nearly one in four checking accounts are are still maintenance-fee free.

• See whether you can get the fee waived. Many banks

offer several ways for customers to avoid the monthly maintenance fee. For instance, some banks waive fees for customers who (1) make direct deposits of $500 or more, (2) keep a minimum daily balance of $1,500 or more, or (3) average a balance of $5,000 or more across certain accounts.

ATM fees

Since they’re low-dollar, ATM fees may seem innocent enough. But if you find yourself using non-network ATMs often, a few dollars here and there can add up quickly. If you want to avoid

• Go with a bank that reimburses ATM fees. Some banks

(many of them online) do this as a matter of practice in order to attract business. Other banks may offer this perk on higher-level checking accounts that require you to carry a heftier balance to avoid the fees. Use your bank’s branch/ATM locator. Every major bank has one of these on their homepage and mobile app. Use it. There’s no sense paying outof-network fees when your bank has an ATM you didn’t know about just around the corner. •Cut down on ATM use. Right? If you find yourself hitting an out-ofnetwork ATM a couple times a week for small amounts, withdraw a larger amount once a week instead. Better yet, get cash back at a store register when you’re making a purchase. Just make sure the store doesn’t charge any fees for the service first.

A Father’s Day Tribute By Pat Nowak On Father’s Day, I lovingly remember my dad. While he died almost 20 years ago, I still miss him. He was the one who was always there for me, providing the sage advice and wisdom that still guides me, years later. One of ten children, he was a celebrated athlete at Woodward High School. He served in World War II, arriving home to marry my mother in February, 1946. The first of his four daughters was born 9 months later, in November. My first memory is how he used to sing my sister and I to sleep with the songs “When Irish Eyes are Smiling and Too-Ra-Loo-Ra-Loo-Ra (an Irish lullaby). The father of daughters; life was not easy for him. He could have been discouraged, not having a son to carry on his name. However, not once did we girls feel unappreciated - he was always our biggest champion. We accompanied him to softball games and bowling alleys where he proudly showed us off. We had one bathroom in our home, always filled with rollers, clothes and all kinds of “girl things”, yet he never complained. He worked two jobs to make sure that my mother could buy all the frills. He was supporter long before it was trendy. My father left a legacy aHefeminist reminded us that we could be anything we of gentleness... wanted to be, rather than suggesting that we I celebrate his memory choose the safe route of nursing or teaching (the few options generally believed to be available on Father’s Day. for women back then). He was the one who picked up all of my friends and delivered them home safely after many events. He was always the parent in charge when we got home late, giving us a wink and telling us not to tell our mother. But, oh how a strong word of reprimand from him could devastate us. His needs were small: University of Notre Dame football, Cleveland Indians baseball, bowling two times a week, an occasional trip to Raceway Park and his favorite snack, always - peanuts. He walked four daughters down the aisle, paying dearly for our large weddings and he enjoyed his nine grandchildren - he finally got his boys, athletes all - excelling in football, soccer, tennis and wrestling. He had a stroke at 69, it was devastating, but he learned how to manage. Slowly over the next ten years he lost his ability to walk well, his speech suffered and dementia developed. He died at 79. My father left a legacy of gentleness... he taught us to be kind to everyone, not to hold grudges, and that we had choices in life. He treated everyone with warmth and concern and he had no enemies - and his Irish blue eyes always twinkled. His legacy lives on in his nine grandchildren and fifteen great grandchildren. I celebrate his memory on Father’s Day.

Making Friends Important for Health and Quality of Life

Activities Encourage Friendship By Stephen Roberts PhD

Dr. Joan Lawrence, a psychologist at Assessment and Family Therapy in Sylvania has some pretty strong feelings about the value of friendship, claiming that “friends are our family of the heart”, and many times, are as important as your biological or marital family. Some friendships may be occasional interactions but others are like the brothers, sisters, Moms, and Dads that your heart chose. Marina Lung, a Toledo psychologist, explains that the bond between humans is essential for mental health. Bonding begins at birth and if the bond is not a good one, the infant’s wellbeing will be negatively effected. Ms. Lung believes that the value of friendship is shown by the fact that women generally live longer than men because they are better at socializing and forming friendship bonds.

Friendship leads to longer lives

it might take a bit of courage to get out of your comfort zone and approach someone you have just met. Other strategies they suggest are: n Consider taking continuing education classes at a local college n Senior centers have modernized – stop in and check out their offerings n Engage in activities (from cooking classes to political organizing) that you care a great deal about – mak ing friends who care about what you care about is easier. n Find local groups you might be interested in joining at meetup.com n Join a faith community n Start a Facebook page n Volunteer – many groups and institutions need your help. These websites list groups that need you! createthegood.org and voa.org

Dr. Lawrence believes that being around friends can help you live a healthier lifestyle of diet and exercise, reduce blood pressure, enjoy your job more, and more effectively manage the routine stresses of day to day living, as well as the more troubling events like The Mayo clinic has suggestion about death in the family, divorce, etc. how to be a good friend: According to Dr. Lawrence, having friends Accept yourself – we are who we are – we all have weaknesses. can help us age better and live longer. A strong Don’t criticize yourself or be insecure. body of evidence shows that regularly interactAccept others – nobody’s perfect - look at the good parts ing with friends in our ‘twilight years’ can keep of people – forgive. our minds sharper, help us adjust better to life transitions and physical changes associated with Be positive – do good things for, and say good things to friends growing older. Do not compete – focusing on being #1 does not help friendships In fact, according to The Harvard Women’s Health Watch, the lack of strong relationships Seriously listen – do not just dominate conversations. and friendships hurts us as much as smoking up Avoid giving advice unless asked. to 15 cigarettes a day and has a more negative Respect boundaries by not sharing or requesting effect than obesity and lack of exercise. information that is overly personal. Making new friends Devote time to your friendship – family or work should not always come first. AARP has some good ideas about how to make new friends. One of their points is that Show regard for your friend’s time and life – do not over contact and find the best way to communicate

Smoking Detriment to Employment

Not just jarming health, smoking also impacts job searches and salaries. In an study reported in April’s JAMA Internal Medicine, smokers and nonsmokers were compared regarding access to employment and salaries. Non-smokers who had lost their jobs, were 24% more likely to be reemployed after one year than unemployed smokers. After one year the average hourly wage for non-smokers was $20.27, while it was only $15.10 for smokers. jamanetwork.com

Cousino’s Tiffany Salad

Dini ng out Cousino’s Steak House 70 years and counting By Don Radebaugh The food is delicious; great ingredients prepared with expert skill cannot miss. The service is spectacular; the staff, experienced pros, make you feel like you are a special guest. Founded in 1945 by the late Earl Cousino, the traditions have been carefully passed down to the generations that have followed him in the family trade. A fine dining experience with a rustic feel, the moment I walked through the door I was greeted by Constantino Morelli, the step-son of restaurateur Thomas Cousino, son of the founder. “We treat every guest as family,” Morelli said. “It’ a very social setting…everyone knows your name.” It wasn’t long before Morelli stopped by our table to check on us; the host on duty visits with everyone, getting to

know the customers, table by table, person by person. It didn’t take long to feel like part of the family. Morelli explained “Our hand cut sirloin is what we built our reputation on. Our quality never changes. We’ve had return customers coming to us for decades, and they become very vocal when we change something.”

A NWOhio Standout

Only a handful of restaurants in Northwest Ohio enjoy the longevity of Cousino’s. The recipes, handed down over the years, well secure the family brand. Everything is house-prepared. The homemade bread, basted in butter and garlic, came ahead of our main dish, and could have been a meal itself. Featuring American cuisine, the menu, offering an incredible 24-ounce

Old West End

History Embraces Contemporary Touches hen two architects come together, anything is possible. Ed and Mary Glowacki moved into their stunning home in 2002 as just the third owners; the home was built by Jay Lockwood in 1910. Both previous owners lived in the home 46 years so the Glowacki’s have a record to maintain. The inside of the home is designed with a contemporary flair using both mission and modern pieces. The hardwood floors, mixed with terrazzo tile are original and the woodwork (a work in progress) is stunning. Proud owners of a 1948 Noguchi table and 1925 Wassilly chair, designed by Marcel Breuer, the living room is dramatic, featuring a myriad of colors and textures. The dining room is eye-catching and the simplicity of the kitchen is unique in this historical setting. The Glowackis, not afraid of color, have embraced bold tones throughout the home, including their modern bedroom. Large paintings and glass pieces are used expertly in the decor. The doors on the garage are most unusual - something you don’t see anymore. Homes in the Old West End are aged, but still dazzle.
