Stop Blood Clots Before They Stop You (NAPSA)—Every year, up to 600,000 Americans develop blood clots in the veins of their legs or lungs. Risk factors for these clots vary, but most frequently involve surgery, hospital stays of three or more days, hip and knee replacement, cancer and cancer treatment, a family history of blood clots, or disorders that simply cause their blood to clot too much.

THREE BEDROOM, one bath, stove & dishwasher. $650 per month. 660-287-2958

COMMERCIAL PROPERTY For Lease. Excellent locations. Near new construction.

Energy efficient. 886-8009.

Blood clots that form in the legs or lungs are responsible for about 100,000 deaths annually.

Fortunately, the use of blood thinning medications, also known as anti-coagulants, stops clots from forming and can mean the difference between life and death. Surprisingly, some people at risk may not be given these medications or may not take them as prescribed.

“You should discuss the prevention of blood clots with your doctor, particularly if you’re hospitalized or having surgery,” explains Gary Raskob, PhD, Dean of the College of Public Health at the University of Oklahoma, and Chair of the Medical & Scientific Advisory Board of the National Blood Clot Alliance (NBCA). “If you take a blood thinner, talk to your doctor about any concerns or problems you have, and get clear instruction to help you take the medication properly.”

According to Dr. Raskob, blood thinning medications like warfarin have been prescribed for decades. These older therapies require routine blood tests and can interact with other medications and certain foods. Newer blood thinning medications introduced in recent years don’t require blood testing, have fewer drug interactions and can be taken without special dietary considerations. Both older and newer blood thinners effectively prevent or slow the formation of dangerous blood clots.

For more information, visit the NBCA website at www.stopthe clot.org.

Learning About Earning (NAPSA)—Amid the escalating costs in higher learning is a growing chorus of concern that students need helpful resources and tools to make the right financial decisions when mapping out their career path.

To that end, there’s an app, for mobile phones and tablets with iOS or Android, designed to help teens explore potential future income from a desired career and assess the cost of education.

The average student loan debt is about $26,000 and not all careers generate enough income to pay that off easily—but a new app can help you plan.

Called JA Build Your Future™, it was created by PwC US and Junior Achievement USA® (JA), a nonprofit that aims to financially empower youth; to assist teens, their parents and teachers in making responsible financial decisions based on future career choices.

The app describes 100 careers, covering the education and cost required as well as the potential income. Users determine the amount of money they can contribute and the student loans they’ll need. A Return on Investment score shows how easy or difficult it’s likely to be to pay off the debt in a timely manner based on future income.

To learn more, visit www.ja.org and www.pwc.com/US.

Don’t Duck Duct Cleaning (NAPSA)—If giving a warm welcome to cooler weather and festive times with family and friends means turning up the heat in your house, there’s something you ought to know.

You may need to clean the air duct system. Air ducts and ventilation systems can get stuffed with dust, pet hair and other contaminants; an invitation to mold, vermin and bacteria.

If there’s a burning smell when you fire up the furnace for the first time, the system is signaling a dust buildup that must be dealt with.

The good news is that cleaning it can save you money. Research by the U.S. EPA has demonstrated that HVAC cleaning and removing debris from sensitive mechanical components may let systems run more efficiently. Clean, efficient systems are less likely to break down, have a longer life span and generally operate more effectively.

A professional heating and cooling system cleaning contractor can help, particularly if the company belongs to the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA), which tests the knowledge of contractors for safe and effective heating and cooling system cleaning.

NOTICE OF LANDOWNERS’ MEETING Diamonds Every Day (NAPSA)—Good news for the woman who wants to be dazzled with diamonds: A top-selling fragrance, White Diamonds Elizabeth Taylor, lets you wear diamonds every day.

Taylor was known for her intoxicating beauty, glamorous life and the diamonds she adored.

This jewel of a fragrance is the epitome of her star quality—radiant, extraordinarily rare and overwhelmingly beautiful.

Notice is hereby given to the owners of land and other property contained within the boundaries of The West Glasgow Levee District of Saline County, Missouri, that the annual meeting of landowners will be held at 9:00 o’clock a.m. on Tuesday, December 17, 2013, at the St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, Route P, Route 2, Slater, Missouri [2 miles West of what was formerly Saline City, Missouri], at which meeting one member of the Board of Supervisors will be elected for a full term of five (5) years, together with the transaction of such other business as may properly come before said meeting.

Like Elizabeth Taylor, diamonds are one of a kind, beautiful and deeply treasured.

Known as America’s most popular and best-selling celebrity fragrance of all time, its success makes it clear that Elizabeth Taylor knew how to create a bouquet as enduring as the beautiful stones it recalls. The award-winning White Diamonds reflects the deep feminine warmth and classic enduring beauty of the woman who created it.

The sensual floral fragrance is intoxicating and seducing with its complex layering of notes including narcisse, jasmine, amber and sandalwood. A spritz can be a perfect finishing touch to any ensemble.

It’s available in Eau de Toilette at Macy’s, Macys.com and other fine department stores.

Understanding Medicare

by Patricia Smith (NAPSA)—During Medicare’s annual open enrollment period, which ends December 7, millions of Medicare beneficiaries must decide on their Medicare Advantage (MA) health plan for the coming year. While many factors go into deciding about a plan—cost, choice of doctors, benefits—there’s one important question Medicare beneficiaries should ask: What is the quality rating of the plans I’m considering?

A high rating means better health care and the best value for your money. Medicare uses a system called Star Ratings. Plans receive a rating of up to five stars.

These ratings are based on things like how well the plan does at keeping people healthy by making sure they get the treatments, tests and vaccines they need to prevent illness, how quickly you can get an appointment and see specialists, and how the plan responds to your complaints and concerns.

For 2014, over a third of MA plans will receive four or more stars, which is an increase from 28 percent in 2013. Seven of the 11 MA plans earning five stars this year are members of the Alliance of Community Health Plans, an organization representing the nation’s leading health plans.

You can learn more about MA plans—and their quality ratings— using the Medicare Plan Finder at www.Medicare.gov. MA plans are called “Medicare Health Plans” in the Plan Finder.

The National Committee for Quality Assurance also evaluates quality in MA plans; those rankings can be found at www.ncqa.org.

• Ms. Smith is president and CEO of the Alliance of Community Health Plans, www.achp.org.

Pairing Beef And California Avocados Creates Craveable Dishes (NAPSA)—Recently, numerous home cooks competed in the 2013 National Beef Cook-Off contest, funded by The Beef Checkoff. This year, contestants were challenged with a new recipe category—Craveable Fresh Beef and Fresh California Avocado. Contestants developed flavorful and nutritious dishes that paired delicious lean beef and creamy California avocados.

Many experts say lean beef— filled with protein, iron and B vitamins—can help satisfy you and maintain a healthy weight, build muscles and fuel an active lifestyle. California avocados are also nutrient dense, in that they provide substantial amounts of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients with relatively few calories. In fact, one-fifth of a medium avocado (1 oz.) has 50 calories and contributes nearly 20 vitamins and minerals and phytonutrients.

Take This To Heart Research also shows that eating lean beef, even daily, as part of a heart-healthy diet and lifestyle improved cholesterol levels. A 3oz. serving of lean beef provides 25 g (about half) of the daily value for protein, which is one of the most satisfying nutrients.

In a study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, researchers from Penn State University found that people who consumed lean beef daily as part of a heart-healthy diet experienced a 10 percent decline in LDL “bad” cholesterol.

California avocados also fit into a heart-healthy diet, providing “good fats,” 0.5g polyunsaturated fat, 3g monounsaturated fat, and no cholesterol per 1-oz. serving.

Additionally, a 1-oz. serving of avocado contains 26 milligrams of beta-sitosterol, a natural plant sterol that may help maintain healthy cholesterol levels.

Healthy Cravings The theme of this year’s National Beef Cook-Off contest was “Making the Most of My Plate,” which encouraged delicious, nutritious recipes using ingredients from a variety of food groups. Here are two of the delectable recipes that were created by finalists in the Craveable Fresh Beef and Fresh California Avocado recipes category.
