Boat and Water Safety

Have you ever been boating and, as the operator or passenger, become nervous about the other boats around you because you are unsure of what they’re going to do? Have you ever thought “What do I do?” if a situation arises with another boat? Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the ‘rule’s of the boating road’ safeboatingcouncil.org Learn the right steps Drowning is the leading cause of injury-related death among children between 1 and 4 years old. And it’s the third leading cause of injuryrelated death among children 19 and under. Parents and grandparents have many obligations, but learning CPR should be on the top of the list to provide peace of mind – and the more peace of mind you have the better. www.safekids.org/watersafety

PORTRAIT BY MICHAEL NEMETH

Q&A WITH

FRANK P. STILES

By Pat Nowak

FRANK STILES was born, raised, and educated in Toledo, Ohio. He joined the Toledo Police Division on April 2, 1965.

During the next 23 years he worked as an investigator throughout the Detective Bureau investigating felony crimes.

Retiring after 25 years with the police division he took a position with Lion Stores as their Loss Prevention Director. In January 1999 he was hired by Lucas County Prosecuting Attorney Julia R. Bates as the Office’s Chief Investigator and remains there today.

Stiles is the author of three published truecrime non-fiction books. Evil Brothers, Blind Trust and City Soldiers What was your first job?

My first real job was working as a stock boy at the Great Eastern Shopping Center Kroger Srore.

Do you have any secrets for aging gracefully?

Keep a clear conscience by living an honest life and treating others as you would have them treat you. Work hard and take pride in what you do. Always stay active.

What health, diet or lifestyle tips do you practice?

I don’t always practice what I feel is good but doing everything in moderation would be a good idea.

Words to live by?

Remember: God created all people equal and I feel everyone has the right to live in a society free from fear and intrusion.

Biggest self-indulgence?

Working hard as a police officer to protect the rights and safety of those I serve and arresting those who violate the laws that were designed to protect all of us.

What do you admire in others?

I admire anyone who has fairly succeeded in achieving excellence, in whatever it is that they do.

Something most people don’t know about me?

I am hard on the outside but soft on the inside.

Stiles books may be purchased through: www.amazon.com | www.frankstiles.com The books are also available in the ToledoLucas County libraries.

Campus of Life Learning for the Rest of Our Lives

By Chris Watson Can I make sushi at home? What are all these apps for on my iPad? How do I make a slideshow on the computer... with music... and text? Is sugar really the arch villain of nutrition? Is anyone else besides me interested in astronomy?

Was U.S. Grant that good of a general?

Or that bad of a president? Can I finally take all those courses that I didn’t have time for the last time I went to college?

Can I get my degree... just because I want to?

For most of our professional lives we studied for survival or advancement.

Job requirements, continuing education requirements, new machines, new programs, skill certifications, even baccalaureates and masters programs became the albatross hanging around our careers. Learning was a necessity, not a passion. However, with broad participation from local colleges and universities along with national non profits, the learning albatross has flown the coop.

Learning can, in fact, be fun.

The US Department of Education reports that the fastest growing segment of students is now adult and lifelong learners.

What used to be simple community education courses and lectures has turned into a full service menu of opportunities. Here is a roundup of local and online resources to start back to school for the best reason around: the joy of learning.

Ohio Department of Aging.

FuneralHome Walker Funeral Home Keith Walker walkerfuneralhomes.com After working at a funeral home in North Toledo, Alvin W. Walker opened his first chapel on Monroe Street in 1933. It soon became the area’s leading funeral home, as Alvin was involved in community organizations, and because he treated every family as though it were his own. Alvin opened the Talmadge Park Chapel on Talmadge Road, and was joined in the family business by his son Gary in 1965, and his grandson Keith in 1993.

The chapel was relocated to its current Sylvania location in 1995, and the family purchased the Maison-Dardenne Funeral Home in Maumee, renaming it Maison-Dardenne-Walker Funeral Home.

Health A supply without the high

The Toledo Hemp Center clears a clouded debate with a legal alternative

by Athena Cocoves Heated debate concerning the efficacy of medical marijuana typically focuses on balancing the medical benefits versus the recreation aspect. One local businessman, however,is shifting the dialogue.

Kevin Spitler, of the Toledo Hemp Center, provides an alternative to medical marijuana and pain pills. 5 years ago, he opened the hemp dispensary, offering products derived from hemp that are rich in CBD, a chemical found in cannabis.

Welcome to the neighborhood

When the Center first opened, Spitler admits that many locals were confused.

“Once people learned that it was legal and didn’t get you high, we were welcomed,” said Spitzer.

The Center’s hemp-based products do not include THC, the component of the plant that “gets you high.” Instead, the products contain varying amounts of CBD, one of the over 85 cannabinoids found in cannabis.

Like THC, CBD works with the body’s already existing cannabinoid receptor system to regulate appetite, painsensation, mood and memory. Unlike THC, CBD has no psychoactive properties, which means that it will not impair judgment, motor skills, or provide ‘recreational’ benefit.

On the inside

When you enter the Center, you are met by smiling faces, excited to explain the huge variety of products the store displays. Offering everything from hemp-infused flapjack mix, to lip balms, vapor products, chocolates, gummy squares, infused water, juice and oils, the Center provides many possible routes to consume CBD. “Everyone has a cannabinoid deficit because of prohibition,” said Spitler, “so taking these products as a supplement is a great preventative method.”

SIZZLING SUMMER EVENT! Special Summer Savings! Limited Time Only!

Some of the most common problems that Spitzer helps treat through the CBD products are gastrointestinal issues, migraines, chronic pain, and lung cancer.

Using vapor products, similar to e-cigs but without nicotine, CBD is quickly absorbed in damaged areas. A local medical clinic “has sent lung cancer patients here to get CBD through their lung passages,” said Spitler.

Also frequently referred are patients with migraines. Topical oils can be applied near the temples for quick absorption to ease pain.

A new focus

One of Spitler’s most recent focuses is aiding those addicted to prescription drugs or heroin. Also, Spitler suggests those suffering an injury can begin treatment first with a CBD alternative, before beginning a course of prescription medicine.

“We’re living in a society which is being prescribed a lot of pills, and the heroin problem is related to that,” said Spitler. “If I can help your pain without a pill, it will stop the whole process [leading to addiction].”

Spitler encourages those curious to come to the shop and learn, providing samples to interested people, allowing them to experience the benefits.

s with He Tasty Cooking Begin

by Pat Nowak

Do you smell that wonderful aroma? Taste the delicious difference?

Many chefs agree that cooking with fresh herbs divine enhances the cuisine we eat. Chef Jason Peeler from Ciao Restaurant is certainly a believer. He is so sure of it that for the last three years an herb garden has been grown, specifically for cooking, at Ciao, on Monroe St. in Sylvania. People like to see the fresh ingredients that are being used and many restaurant visitors stop to admire the area and enjoy the wonderful scent.

Designed by his wife, Jennifer, the garden features basil, oregano, tarragon, rosemary, lavender, thyme, chives and tomatoes. They also have an extensive garden at their Elmore, Ohio home and love growing fresh ingredients and cooking authentic food.

His favorite - the fresh vegetable pizza, made by his wife, using the garden fresh abundance.

Jason is a graduate of the Pennsylvania Institute for Culinary Arts, and began his twenty-five year career at Mon Ami Restaurant in Port Clinton. He arrived at Ciao Restaurant with a penchant for cooking with quality. His motto “high quality is the most important ingredient in maintaining a restaurant’s high standards.”

His favorite chef is outspoken television personality Gordon Ramsay, for his exacting cooking standards and Peeler maintains that, for Ciao to continue its success, it has to stay on top of its game. He believes that with the many restaurants in Toledo there is good competition, pushing him to maintain high standards and to work harder. Staying on top of his game includes creating fabulous food made with top of the line fresh ingredients; a recipe for success.

Life on the Lake Where can you live on a lake in the middle of Northwest Ohio but your house looks like it belongs on Nantucket Island? Dave and Sandy Roberts set out to build a scenic lakeside retreat that is used twelve months out of the year, only it is located in Holland, Ohio.

The home reflects a charming Northeast Coast flavor that allows the family to enjoy water sports as well as extensive entertaining. The stone and shingle ranch, built by Jim Howald, is painted a bold, indigo that gives the home its personality.

The Robertsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; used shades of taupe and gray to enhance the interior and add to the feeling of being both old and new. The large living area allows guests to move comfortably from the dining area through the kitchen and great room while enjoying the lake view from all angles.

The furniture, and the vintage feeling, is accented with unique furnishings and patterns that coexist harmoniously. Sandy loves exploring estate sales to add eclectic collectibles and has painted and refinished pieces to add to the collection.

This lakeside home features summer and fall seasonal outdoor dining, which plays significantly in the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love of outdoor living. We may not live in the Northeast but we can sure bring the Northeast here and this house reflects those charming scenic retreats.

Interest The Toledo Club, a bastion of old money and fabulous architecture opened its doors on Saturday, June 19, 1915.

Since then it has become the premiere meeting place for movers and shakers and on any day you can see a who’s who of business leaders, community activists and young up and comers.

In 1870, Toledo business leaders began meeting regularly to discuss the happenings of our city. David Ross Locke, who went by the pen name Petroleum V. Nasby, gave the group the name Draconian, which, was widely received as harsh. Members changed the name to The Toledo Club in 1889 and a new building on Madison and Huron Sts. served as its headquarters. Membership was then limited to 350. Twenty five years later, when the building was outgrown, plans were made to find a new location.

A site was purchased and The Toledo Club was built at Madison and 14th for $500,000. The architects were Mills, Rhines, Bellman and Norhoff with Lawrence Bellman as the chief architect for the English Renaissance Building.

ome energy prices threaten the ability of many older adult households to continue living independently in their home.

While it has been common knowledge for many years that older adults are extremely vulnerable to extreme temperatures, analysis by the Centers for Disease Control, most recently in 2013, has shown that heat-related deaths are most common among people over 85 years of age. Yet many older adults lack adequate air conditioning.

Since the cost of heating or cooling a home to safe levels is out of reach for many low-income older adults, older adults signing up for utility assistance programs such as the Home Energy Assistance Program is essential.

To get an application for this program, readers can contact the Area Office on Aging at 419-382-0624.
