If you’re suffering from lumbar disc or neuropathy, you must read about this non-surgical treatment...
Lower Back Pain Secrets Revealed ... “Find Out What The Drug Companies Don’t Want You To Know!”
CA-10443318
If you suffer from the following conditions… •Sciatica •Disc degeneration •Lower back pain/neck pain •Numbness and burning in the legs and feet •Radiating hip pain •Neuropathy •Fibromyalgia …there may be hope. Now, a local doctor has what may be the most important treatment in helping these conditions. If You Read Nothing Else, Read This: Millions of Americans suffer from lumbar disc pain and sciatica. Sciatica is a compression of the sciatic nerve, usually by an L4 or L5 disc herniation or degeneration. As you know, sciatica can be a very painful problem, even crippling at times. This painful condition interferes with your body’s ability to transmit messages to your muscles, skin, joints, or internal organs. If ignored or mistreated, these problems can lead to irreversible health conditions. Why not get help by those trained to correct the major cause of disc pain and sciatica. Read the full facts on this page.
Finally, there’s a treatment to conquer back and leg pain without dangerous medications or painful surgery. Nothing’s worse than feeling great mentally but physically feeling held back from life because you hurt and the pain just won’t go away! Sure, you can numb the pain if you take enough Vicodin, Soma or some other pill, but the real problem is while you make it through the day all “numbed up”, you are likely making your problem even worse…without knowing it. No matter where you are with back pain, whether you’re having unrelenting foot pain and facing surgery or you just injured it yesterday, a treatment called low level laser therapy may be the answer for you. Two landmark studies have proven the effectiveness of cold lasers. The first study showed patients who used the laser therapy had less pain and more range of motion days after treatment. If the laser therapy can help these patients, it can help you too. These second study showed that patients who had laser
therapy had 53% better improvement than those who just had a placebo. Are you suffering from sciatica or back pain? If so, relief may be easier than you think. Could This Non-Invasive Treatment Eliminate Your Back and Sciatica Pain? My name is Dr. Russ Schroder, Clinic Director at the D-C Chiropractic Neurology Center in Zanesville.

Here’s what patients are saying about us: My name is Steve Vincent, and I am a Zanesville City Firefighter. You may see the fireworks I put on downtown or hear my voice at the cake auction each year. As you can imagine, 2 out of the 3 are physically demanding. I’ve got to admit that I may have been a surgical statistic this year if it weren’t for Dr. Russ. I’ve had back problems for a decade now, but in the past couple of years it was getting noticeably worse. I had Chiropractic care before that had helped for a while. I bought a home inversion table that stretched me. I exercised, rested, iced, and heated my low-back, but it was quickly worsening on a much more consistent basis. I even crunched down vitamins and herbs to help the pain, but nothing was giving me consistent or lasting relief. I consulted with a couple surgeons this past year, and I was starting to think that surgery might be my next/ last option. Then I read Dr. Russ had a new DRX machine put in this year that gets miraculous results with herniated and bulging discs. Since I had already checked out the other so-called alternatives to decompression, I chose the DRX9000 and his office because he explained to me exactly what the treatments did and how they were the safest, least invasive, and most effective choice available. And I’m here today to tell you that even two months after my treatment plan is done my back feels ten years younger! It’s been feeling this good since halfway through my program and I haven’t looked back. Hi, my name is Loretta and I drive two hours, one way to visit Dr. Russ. I have had three major back surgeries, resulting in 3 fusions, one in my neck and two in my lower back. I’ve had increasing pain since 2004 and I finally had another MRI in September, which resulted in four doctors telling me I needed more surgeries. I had three bulges in my neck and one in my lower back. I actually made an appointment with the surgeon and in the meantime while I was waiting for the day of my appointment, a friend gave me Dr. Russ’s ad from the paper. I came to see him and he told me he could help me. I went home and cancelled my appointment and then started my treatments up here. After six treatments on the DRX9000 machine, I was able to go out and shop without having to look for a bench every 15 minutes. I then went home and worked for three and a half hours at home and I had no back pain in my lower back. After four more treatments I started noticing less pain in my neck and shoulders, and now I can happily say I’m practically pain free. I have one more treatment and then I will be done. I can’t say enough about Dr. Russ and his wonderful staff. They’re very knowledgeable and very friendly. I would highly recommend to anybody having debilitating pain, or have been told they need surgery to come and see them, they’re wonderful! -- Loretta Doll My name is Melissa. I’m 39 years old and I have Disc degeneration. I hurt my lower back when I was a teenager and have had pain in my lower back for many years off and on. The past two years I’ve really been in a lot of pain. I’ve tried therapy, pain shots and all kinds of pain pills. They didn’t work. I spent a lot of my time in bed or on the couch. Many days I couldn’t work or get out of bed. I didn’t know what else to try. Then my friend told me that she had the same problem and told me about the DRX9000. I thought “Why not try it?” So I went to Dr. Russ’ office and started treatments and after the third one I could feel the difference and by my last treatment I was pain free. The treatments are painless and so relaxing. Dr. Russ and staff are great. They explained everything about my treatment and made me feel comfortable. I am now back to my normal, everyday routine. Thanks again Dr. Russ and Staff. You have changed my life greatly. God Bless. PAID ADVERTISEMENT

Eating right can improve quality of life
Berries and whole grains are nutritious foods that can help men and women live longer, healthier lives. Legend states that on April 2, 1513, Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León was the first European to discover modern-day Florida when he traveled on a quest for the mythical “Fountain of Youth.” While modern science has proven that there is no mystical fountain or body of water that can reverse or slow down the aging process, there are many steps people can take to age well and prolong their lives. Eating the right foods is one way to age well. According to Ralph Felder, M.D., Ph.D., coauthor of “The Bonus Years Diet,” reversing the aging process internally is more difficult than outward cosmetic changes. But the right foods can go a long way toward increasing both life expectancy and quality of life. Those who want to employ diet to increase their life expectancy may want to start adding more of the following foods to their breakfast, lunch and dinner plates. • Broccoli, grapes and salad: According to Health magazine, researchers have found that compounds in these three foods boast extra life-extending benefits. • Berries: In addition to their abundance of antioxidants, berries have other benefits. A 2012 study from Harvard University found that at least one serving of blueberries or two servings of strawberries each week may reduce the risk of cognitive decline in older adults. • Fruits and vegetables: Produce is good for the body because
N&T • 6
it’s low in calories and high in fiber, vitamins and other nutrients. Numerous studies have indicated that diets plentiful in fruits and vegetables help people maintain a healthy weight and protect against cardiovascular disease. • Whole grains: Whole grains pack a lot of nutrition into a lowcalorie food. Whole grains help protect against type 2 diabetes, and researchers at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center found study participants whose diets included plenty of whole grains and fruit cut their heart disease risk by almost half compared to those whose diets favored meat and fatty foods. • Red wine: A glass a day for women and no more than two glasses daily for men can be beneficial. Moderate consumption of red wine has been shown to slow age-related declines in cardiovascular function, according to the American Heart Association. • Fiber: Increase your fiber intake for a longer life. Research from The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition finds that the more fiber you include in your diet, the lower your risk of coronary heart disease. The daily recommendation is 25 to 35 grams. While there may be no such thing as the fountain of youth, a healthy diet can help men and women prolong their lives.
• Raisins: Raisins contain antioxidants that may help reduce inflammation. Inflammation is often linked to heart disease and other debilitating conditions. Fresh produce also is a good source of antioxidants.
Good • Tree nuts: Tree nuts contain unsaturated fats that can help lower LDL cholesterol (the bad stuff) and improve HDL (the good stuff). Nuts also are a filling source of protein and other healthy nutrients. • Whole grains: Whole grains contain complex carbohydrates for energy, as well as protein and fiber. Fiber can help scrub cholesterol from the blood, lowering bad cholesterol levels. • Fatty fish: Many cold-water, fatty fish, such as halibut, herring and salmon, contain omega-3 fatty acids, which are heart-healthy. Omega-3s also can be found in walnuts, flaxseed and some soy products. • Beans: Beans and other legumes are an excellent source of protein and can be a stand-in for meats that are high in saturated fat. Beans also contain cholesterol-lowering soluble fiber and folate, which can reduce blood homocystein levels. The Bean Institute reports that consuming beans may reduce cholesterol levels by roughly six to 10 percent. • Yogurt: Researchers in Japan found yogurt may protect against gum disease. Left untreated, gum disease may elevate a person’s risk for heart disease. Yogurt contains good bacteria that can counteract bad bacteria and boost immunity.

No one wants to hear from their doctors that they have joined the millions of people across the globe to be diagnosed with heart disease. The Heart Foundation reports that heart disease, which includes diseases of the heart and cardiovascular system and stroke, is the No. 1 cause of death in the United States, affecting both men and women and most racial/ethnic groups. Heart disease also is one of the leading causes of death in Canada, claiming more than 33,000 lives per year. Many factors contribute to the development of heart disease, including smoking, lack of exercise and stress. Diet and whether a person is overweight or obese also can have a direct link to heart health. Diet, particularly for those with diabetes and poorly controlled blood sugar levels, is a major concern. A variety of foods are considered helpful for maintaining a strong and healthy heart and cardiovascular system, while others can contribute to conditions that may eventually lead to cardiovascular disease or cardiac arrest. Moderation enables a person to sample a little of everything, but not to make any one food a habit. The following are some foods to promote heart health and some foods you might want to avoid.
Poor • Fried foods: Many fried foods have little nutritional value, as they tend to be high in saturated and trans fats. French fries are particularly bad because they are carbohydrates fried and then doused in salt. • Sausage: Processed meats have frequently earned a bad reputation among cardiologists, but sausage can be a big offender, due in large part to its high saturated fat content. • Red meats: Enjoying a steak is probably not as bad as eating a deep-fried brownie, but it’s best to limit red meat consumption to about 10 percent or less of your diet. Red meats can have a considerable amount of cholesterol, saturated fat and calories. • Added sugars: Sugar can increase blood pressure and triglyceride levels. Sugar often hides out in foods that you would not associate with the sweetener. Plus, many people unwittingly consume too much sugar simply through sugar-sweetened beverages and ready-to-eat cereals. • Salty foods: Leave the salt shaker in the spice cabinet and opt for herbs for flavoring, advises the American Heart Association. High-sodium diets often are to blame for hypertension, a major risk factor for heart disease. • Dairy: Artery-clogging saturated fat also can be found in dairy products, particularly the full-fat versions. Butter, sour cream and milk can be problematic when people overindulge. Opt for low-fat dairy when possible.

LOOKING BACK
Secrets of the Sanborn Fire Maps, 1886-1949 "Population 3500, 1 Steam and No Hand Engines, No Independent Hose Carts, Water Facilities: NOT GOOD" — 1886 Sanborn Map description of Cambridge, Ohio
CA-10442134
Story by Rick Booth A decade or two ago, if you asked anyone to name a major map company, the most likely response might have been "Rand McNally." Today, people are just as likely to mention Google Maps. But a hundred years ago and more, there was a most remarkable and somewhat obscure specialty map company that charted nearly all major cities in America — 12,000 of them — in excruciating detail down to the level of every building's dimensions, contents, and construction. They revisited and revised their mappings usually about every five to ten years. The Sanborn Map Company was in the business of making maps of cities to be sold to fire insurance companies so that they could estimate fire hazard

risks to buildings within their city contexts without having to send an agent to check out sites in person. Not many people actually got to see or use the maps back then because they were expensive and rarely were purchased by any but insurance industry specialists. Yet today these maps collectively make up the single most complete record of American cities' business and industrial district histories and growth. Fortunately, most of the maps are available today on the Internet for free, and the details they reveal are fascinating! In Guernsey County, Cambridge was mapped nine times from 1886 to 1949. Byesville, Cumberland, and Pleasant City were each mapped four times within that period as well. And just next door in Muskingum County, New Concord was
mapped twice. Herewith are some of the stories the maps tell:
New Concord's cover sheet, 1918 The maps were produced as multi-sheet sets, each sheet being about two feet wide by two and a half feet tall, at a scale of 50 feet per inch. The first sheet would contain a general description of town conditions and a global overview map of the town. New Concord in 1918 was described as having rolling streets with no heavy grades. Some were paved with brick or concrete. The town had electric lights but no organized fire company. Heating fuel was primarily coal and wood. An electric Deming brand pump could raise up to 200,000 gallons of water a day from a town well to a 171,000-gallon reservoir about 200 feet higher than the town, providing 90-pound pressure in two miles of water mains. Prevailing winds came from the west, which was important to know to guess which way fires would spread.
Wheeling Ave. at 7th St. in Cambridge, 1892 Town businesses were well marked with details on the earliest Sanborn maps. At the northwest corner of Wheeling Avenue and Seventh Street in Cambridge in 1892, for instance, map markings indicate the corner building held a clothing store on its first floor, the Western Union Telegraph office on its second, and a meeting hall on the third floor. Next door, at 651 Wheeling Avenue, there was a Chinese laundry in the basement, below the post office. The Guernsey Times newspaper was printed on the second floor. And on the third floor above the bank beside the post office, there was a photography studio. There was a saloon in the basement below the drug store beside the bank. The Lyndon Hotel area was next down the block, with a barber shop conveniently located next to its office front. Buildings drawn with an 'X' pattern on top of them represented stables for horses. John Boyd's livery stable fronted on Seventh Street, and the Lyndon Hotel also had its own place to park one's horse in a building on the alley behind the hotel. All of downtown Cambridge is mapped in similar detail on the Sanborn maps. They present a picture of a vibrant young city alive with business. Wheeling Ave. at 7th St. in Cambridge, 1897 A view of the same block on Wheeling Avenue five years later looks markedly different and much emptier. Why? Fire. One of the worst conflagrations in the history of Cambridge roared through this block in 1895. A few buildings survived, but much of the area had not yet been rebuilt by map revision time. It is possible even that the livery stable shown in 1897 is a rebuilt building, next to a saloon and restaurant which also may have been constructed after the fire. The Lyndon Hotel and its stable perished. Pleasant City's Johnson Bros. Flour Mill, 1905 Working mills and factories were often explained in detail on the maps. In 1905 in Pleasant City, the Johnson Brothers Flour Mill was described as being able to grind out 35 barrels of flour a day. Built in 1879 and rebuilt in 1886, the mill used coal and natural gas as fuels, and likely also water power from Wills Creek, from which it also drew its water supply. On the mill's first floor, it had a stone grinding wheel, a "flour packer," and three "double set rolls," which apparently referred to roller mill apparatus, an alternative to stone grinding. The second floor had seven "hexagon

hall above a grocery store, but in the same building with the Masons' hall, which in turn sat above the general Town Hall. A few doors away, past two private homes and hardware and furniture stores, was the Eagle Hotel which, like the Lyndon in Cambridge, had its own stable for its guests' horses out back.
Byesville's intersection of Main and 2nd St., 1905 The first fire map of Byesville was made in 1905. Today's The Cambridge C&M Railroad Roundhouse, 1886 Byesville Museum was a bank then, across the street from a Occasionally one finds a particularly fine and unexpected treat drug store, a china boutique, a vacant storefront, a dry goods on the old maps. In 1886, for instance, the north-south Cleveland and Marietta Railroad had its maintenance shops in Cambridge.
("D.G.") store, and a cigar shop. Across in a different direction was a general hardware store. A "fire cistern" holding water for emergencies lay beneath the street near the hardware store. This may have reduced the store's fire insurance rate. Two private homes shown were marked "D" for "Dwelling." A doctor's office and barber shop also appear on the map. Buildings in Cumberland, 1895
The old turntable and seven-bay roundhouse for servicing smokebelching steam engines is clearly sketched out on the old Sanborn, complete with a water hydrant at each engine bay. It sat on the site of today's Guernsey County Law Enforcement Center, roughly where the county jail is now. The horse turnstile at McIlyar's Brick Yard, 1886 Though the iron horse had come to Cambridge in a big way by 1886, there are reminders on the map that the horse itself was still a very important beast of burden. At McIlyar's Brick Yard, for instance, across the B&O tracks from Third Street, there is a curious circle marked "Clay Grinding Horse Power."
Here horses worked a turnstile to grind clay for bricks. A few blocks away, other horses worked another turnstile for the city's sausage factory. Today, the Independent Order of Oddfellows (I.O.O.F.) is almost a forgotten fraternal and service organization, though a few chapters in the U.S. still exist. But in the late 1800s, nearly every town of significant size had an Oddfellows Hall. Locally, they may have been even more widespread than the Masons. Little Cumberland apparently had its I.O.O.F.

Greenhouses Cultivate Spring Gardening Fever Story & Photos by Beverly Kerr Spring Fever hits many adults this time of year. Thoughts of vegetable and flower gardens have anxious gardeners searching seed catalogs and starting seeds of their favorite plants indoors. But not everyone has the time or patience to carry out this slow process. That's where greenhouses come into the picture. Greenhouse exploration seemed the perfect adventure for someone with Spring Fever. After visiting several greenhouses of all sizes, it makes a person ready to plan what flowers they want for their own garden. Some greenhouses begin in February sowing seeds in good loose soil filled with air that plant roots need. This special type of soil also holds moisture well, but drains easily so over-watering is unlikely. Extra care is also taken not to give the plants too much fertilizer for then they will grow tall and spindly. Others wait until March to start their seeds. Surprisingly, many of the plants are started in the fall of the year from cuttings of healthy mother plants. Succulents, ornamental begonias, and coleus are examples of plants frequently started from cuttings. They cut a branch from a mother plant, and simply place it in good soil, while keeping the correct moisture in the soil. Soon small roots appear. Some plants, however, have patents and they do not permit growing new plants from cuttings. To get these new varieties, greenhouse owners have to purchase plants in trays from a supplier, such as Proven Winner. When they arrive they are very small plants, but with a little tender care, they will be ready to re-pot for use in hanging baskets or for sale as individual plants. One greenhouse just recently installed heated floors in the
N&T • 12
section where they were doing the seeding and cuttings. By use of a wood burner, it keeps the floor at about 70 degrees, the perfect temperature for these young plants. Others use propane to keep their greenhouse at a set temperature, and perhaps a heat mat for young plants. Not every place has economical h e a t i n g available, so they delay potting things until later in March. That is one reason that more greenhouses are now purchasing their small plants in trays of plugs. It just isn't cost effective to heat their greenhouses while they start plants from seed. Of great importance is getting the plants to peak at just the right time. That takes perfect timing especially when you are selling the plants. Each greenhouse establishes a weekly schedule for planting so their plants are perfect to fill requests for custom orders in special containers or baskets. Flowers aren't the only thing you'll find at the greenhouse. Right now specialty trees that are high risk reside inside a covered, yet cool, greenhouse to keep them shielded from the elements. Fruit trees, magnolias, small shrubs and pines still need extra protection. For those with a passion for gardening, a few are fortunate enough to have their own greenhouse. These are often filled with plants from their garden that they want to save from year to year, along with some they want to experiment with. Often they take cuts of their favorites for expansion of a certain flowerbed, or perhaps to give to their friends. Surrounded by her beautiful plants, one lady said, “I do it just for fun. It's my hobby.” When talking about greenhouses, a unique one visited a couple years ago keeps coming to mind. This greenhouse is made of over 1000 plastic pop bottles, which will never need replaced as they don't decompose. This is used year round to start plants and grow food for the family. Solar panels provide heat for this plant haven. People who work with plants enjoy “watching things grow.” When you place a seed or a cutting into the soil, it's a miracle to see them develop into a beautiful plant. The fascination never stops.

In Like a Lion and Out Like a Lamb Story by Colette Taylor This phrase, when referencing the month of March, seems self-explanatory to those of us living in somewhat Northern climates. March breaks forth with much gusto, harboring winter winds and cold temperatures, before eventually mellowing into lovely spring days. While the exact origin of the phrase is difficult to pinpoint, some site religious connotations with Jesus as the sacrificial lamb or even astrology as Leo is the rising sign coming into March and April, governed by Aries the ram. I, however, am eternally reminded of one of my favorite grade school teachers. Mrs. P was my first grade teacher. I was in a double classroom that year and so occasionally switched to work with another teacher but Mrs. P taught most of my subjects. She always had beautiful bulletin board displays. One in particular featured a calendar noting where the days fell for the month, any holidays and was themed for the season. Based on previous displays, I had assumed March would have shamrocks for St. Patrick’s Day. However upon entering the classroom we students were met with a display that depicted a bisected image that we didn’t quite understand. On the left side, washed out purple construction paper and on the right a bright blue color. Straddling this was some sort of mystical animal with the powerful hindquarters of a lion and the delicate upper torso and head of a sweet looking lamb. Above it in letters stapled slightly askew it read “In Like a Lion and Out Like a Lamb.” It wasn’t until later that day, as we sat down at our desks to do our writing exercise – where we always referenced the calendar to obtain the correct date – that Mrs. P asked if any students knew what the bulletin board meant. She asked for words we’d use to describe a lion and then the same inquiry about a lamb. She used the suggestions from students to explain how the weather in March usually changes from fierce to gentle in the span of four short weeks. Maybe we understood, maybe we didn’t; but I still remember it. Moreover, I remember Mrs. P I remember how kind she was, not only to me but to all of her students. First grade is rough. There can be tears for no reason, potty accidents, vastly different learning levels between students and students teasing others for any of the above. Mrs. P navigated these bumps in the road patiently and always with a reassuring smile. She encouraged us to like school, learning and each other. While Teacher Appreciation Week is currently celebrated in May, when I was a student National Teacher Day was recognized in March. Either way it is wonderful that we have an official day to thank the teachers that inspired us. I’ll be thinking of Mrs. P and so many others as the chilling winds of March pave the way into a sunny and warm April.

FAMILY Tips for grandparents helping to raise children As retirement age approaches, many older adults envision themselves downsizing and moving to a quaint community to enjoy their golden years in as relaxing a fashion as possible. However, for a growing number of seniors, their retirement years are being spent helping to raise grandchildren. United States Census data from 2010 indicates 4.9 million American children are being raised solely by their grandparents. CanGrads, a National Kinship Support organization, says approximately 62,500 children are being raised by grandparents and other family in Canada. Many grandparents provide parttime care when their older children have to move back home with their families, as roughly 13 million children are now living in homes with their grandparents. Although being raised by grandparents may not be the ideal situation for all parties involved, such situations are a necessity for many families. Seniors who are once again thrown into the caregiver arena may need a crash course in childcare or a few pointers on parenting in the modern age. • Get the right equipment. Children certainly require a lot of gear, more than grandparents likely used when raising their own children. Certain safety requirements are in place to safeguard young children, and that often means investing in new cribs, car seats, high chairs, and other items. Grandparents should resist the temptation to use old items they may have kept in storage, as such items may no longer be safe and could put grandchildren at risk for injury. • Gather important documents. Grandparents should keep pertinent documents in one easily accessible place in their homes should an emergency arise. These include birth certificates, health immunization records, death certificates (if the child’s parents are deceased), dental records, school papers, citizenship papers, and proof of income and assets. • Speak with an attorney. Lawyers can help grandparents wade through legal arrangements, such as filing for custody,
N&T • 16
guardianship or adoption. Options vary depending on where petitioners live, but lawyers can provide peace of mind to grandparents concerned about their grandkids’ futures. • Investigate financial assistance. Seniors may not earn the income they once did and may be on assistance programs or living off of retirement savings. Grandparents who find themselves caring for a child may be eligible for financial assistance. The Temporary Assistance for Needy Families is a joint federal and state program that can provide need-based financial assistance. The AARP or the organization GrandFamilies may be able to put grandparents in touch with financial advisors in their areas. • Contact schools and daycare centers. School-aged children will need to be enrolled in school. Grandparents should contact the department of education where they live to learn about local school systems, especially when grandkids are moving in with their grandparents. Some grandparents can qualify for free or low-cost daycare, and such programs can be discussed with local Social Services offices. Enrollment in school or daycare can provide grandparents with much-needed free time during the day. • Find emotional support. Taking care of grandchildren is a full-time job. At times, grandparents may feel stressed or out of sorts. Having a strong support system available can help grandparents work through the peaks and valleys of this new and unexpected stage in life. Church- or community center-based counseling services may be available. Grandparents also can check with their healthcare providers to determine if counseling or therapy sessions are covered under their plans. Caring for grandchildren is a life-changing event. Although it can be fulfilling, it also requires a lot of energy and commitment. But grandparents needn’t go it alone, as there are numerous resources available to seniors who suddenly find themselves caring for their grandchildren.

“Do You Suffer from these Seven Symptoms of this Often Misdiagnosed Problem?...”
CA-10443321
Tens of millions suffer, and often don’t know where to turn...
Dear friend, The problem is often misdiagnosed, or not diagnosed at all. But, it affects the lives of between 10 and 20 million Americans. This problem can cause: 1. Numbness. 2. Burning pain. 3. Cramping. 4. Sharp, electric pain. 5. Hurt when you walk. 6. Difficulty sleeping from leg/foot discomfort. 7. Prickling/tingling feelings. If you suffer from one or more of these problems, you may have peripheral neuropathy. And, if you do, you’re not alone. Often, these good people have been frustrated by the traditional care they’ve received for these terrible problems, and are still seeking help. These problems can be caused by diabetes, hereditary disorders, inflammation, medications such as cholesterol lowering (statin) drugs, and more. For the past 14 years, I’ve studied this class of conditions, collectively known as “peripheral neuropathies.” In fact, helping people with these problems has become a primary focus of mine. It’s not unusual for me to hear stories from patients who’ve suffered for years with terrible symptoms. For many, they are missing out on the things they love to do. They aren’t enjoying life as they once did. If that describes you, then perhaps I can help. I practice a multi-pronged attack to these problems. It’s a unique program that only about 1,000 doctors worldwide have studied and are certified in. That’s why I’ve put together the “Neuropathy Pain Relief Program” for anyone suffering from the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy pain. And, the beautiful thing is that when these health situations are resolved, people have great improvements in the quality of their lives. In many cases, they finally can live pain free, with peace and joy in their lives again. I’m a proud member of Dr. Johnson-trained Functional Neurologists on LifeChangingCare.com. This gives me a unique set of knowledge and tools that have been tested, researched, and found to be effective.
Here’s what some of your neighbors have to say: “Hello, my name is Perry Brown and I am from Macdowell, Kentucky. I’ve been to hospitals for the last 9 years with neuropathy in my feet and none of them could tell me what caused it or what the cure is. I came to Zanesville here to Dr. Russ Schroder and I didn’t think that he was going to be able to do anything either, but I’ve been with him for 2 months now and the feeling is coming back in my feet, the color is coming back, the swelling is gone out of them and I’ve lost 60 pounds. I am doing real good.” “I have neuropathy very bad, pains very
bad, but the sharp pains I have not had this week. Those bad sharp pains (that I had for months and months) are not there. I was able to start walking and I was off my walker. That’s pretty good for a week!” D. Wagner (Marietta) “I have had neuropathy in my feet. They were numb for a year, maybe longer. Amazingly, it’s only been three weeks and I told my wife this morning I can feel things in my feet that I hadn’t feltî Ken, Zanesville Innovative care Powerful results You can’t have nerve pressure or ‘pinched nerves’ and get better from neuropathy. Using the latest in technology, I offer non-invasive care. I help patients get well with literally no twisting or popping of their spine because I use patented adjusting instrumentation that is highly-re-search-ed, lowforce and computerized. When the nerve pressure from the spine is more severe, we use Non-surgical Cold Laser Decompression. This frees the nerves, and the damage caused by old herniated discs or arthritis.
More about this Unique Care We also use Low Level Light Therapy (LLLT). It’s a newly developed tool that’s very safe. This noninvasive healing light has been proven to work wonders on peripheral neuropathy symptoms. Also the Rebuilder© which is an electrical nerve stimulator that works to rebuild damaged nerves. About Me I became Board Certified in Chiropractic Neurology and completed my Fellowship in Functional Neurology in 2011 and have been helping even some of the worst cases of neuropathy since then. At our Neurology Center, our goal is to get the word out to as many people as we can that our Neuropathy Program may be for you! Do You Qualify For This New Program? When you call and make an appointment, I’ll perform a highly-specialized Neuropathy Scoring Exam of the nerves in the legs and feet to see if we may be able to help. But, please call right away because we can take only the first 15 callers. If you are one of these 15, I’ll do this Evaluation and Qualifying Process for only $45. The normal cost is $245. Due to the expected demand, it is suggested to call 740-454-1747 at once. Any delay could lead to being placed on a waiting list and paying full price. Add some peace to your life or the life of someone you love. Call today to make an appointment. We can help you. Thank you, Dr. Russ Schroder, D.C., FACFN, DACNB P.S. Does your spouse, family member, or friend suffer from neuropathy? This offer is also available to them, too. You can even come in together. Their lack of health affects your life also. Maybe this will be your chance to really give them the help they need. P.P.S. If you want more information, come in and fill out a preliminary Subjective Peripheral Neuropathy Screening Questionnaire, or come by for a FREE REPORT about the Neuropathy Pain Relief Program. *Excludes further testing or treatment.

Living in a Musical World Story by Beverly Kerr
CA-10438978
March is the time for Lions to roar - the Cambridge Lions Club, that is. Hear those Lions roar when the 43rd annual Variety Show, "That '70s Show" takes place on March 17 - 19 at the Scottish Rite Auditorium. In the center of all preparation and presentation of the musical portion of the show stands one man - Paul Hudson. He directs the chorus and band, arranges the music, and conducts practices in a very patient manner, as he clicks his fingers and taps his leg in time to the beat. Add in the factor that the Lions Club thrives on having fun, and you can see that even though now retired, Paul's twentyseven years experience of teaching band comes in very handy to keep practices moving along smoothly. Lucky that Paul also possesses a great sense of humor. But this is just the tip of the iceberg when you talk about Paul Hudson. Being a band instructor at John Glenn High School, he can play every instrument - percussion being his favorite, while strings are his challenge. Surprisingly, he has never had any private lessons. In high school, he thought it would be fun to try out for a
N&T • 20
musical production, but discovered it was only open to choir members, while he was in the band. Next year Paul became a choir member and when he auditioned for a role in "Sound of Music", won the role of Captain von Trapp - his first singing performance. "I didn't even know I could sing," Paul said with a smile. Paul can also be found as lead percussionist for the Southeast Ohio Symphony Orchestra, Muskingum Valley Symphonic Winds, and Zanesville Memorial Concert Band. In his spare time, he substitutes at area schools. In order to see more of her busy husband, Amy decided to take the reins of the Color Guard, which performed with the John Glenn High School Band that Paul was directing. Since band is nearly a year long activity, their vacations were spent at places like Cedar Point, Ontario Canada, and Disney World accompanied by ninety to two hundred band and choir members
With all this musical ability, it was surprising to learn that music was only part of his dream as a youngster. Paul wanted to join the Air Force and be a jet pilot, but that dream was shattered because 20/20 vision was required. See Paul in action at the Lions Club Variety Show at the Scottish Rite Auditorium in Cambridge on March 17-19. For the first time, he is going to not only direct but perform. Listen as he plays piano and sings, "The Piano Man", Amy's favorite song. What would he like to do next? Paul still wants to be a pilot, but would also enjoy skydiving. Sounds like flying through the air in some manner is still in his dreams. He already flies above most in the world of music.

and several chaperons. "It's important that kids experience music to enjoy all their life." As a teacher, this musician felt his job was to inspire others to play their favorite instrument. As busy as he is, Paul takes great pride in his musical family. His wife Amy is blessed with a beautiful singing voice and participates in the Lions Club shows. Paul’s daughter, Sarah, plays in the symphony and community band in Colorado, while son Matthew, with a background in ballet and music, entertains at Universal Studios in Florida. Paul gets assistance in arranging through a great tool, MIDI. Basically, it involves an electronic keyboard with numerous switches hooked to computer software. What Paul plays on the keyboard shows up on the computer screen in musical notation. Hour by hour, he creates all vocal harmony as well as instrumental accompaniment. MIDI also plays back the arrangement so he can hear exactly what it sounds like. Many revisions are made as Paul is a perfectionist.

CAR TIPS Stay safe when driving in wet weather Drivers must modify their driving habits when weather compromises their visibility and makes road conditions unsafe. Rain can fall any time of year, but tends to be most problematic in spring. According to the Federal Highway Administration, wet roadways, and rain in particular, are the main cause of weatherrelated vehicle crashes. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that, between 2004 and 2013, rain caused 573,784 crashes. To drive safely in the rain and avoid accidents, drivers should follow certain precautions. • Maintain windshield wipers. Inspect and, if necessary change windshield wipers regularly to ensure they are working optimally. Always test wipers before driving in rainy weather. • Turn on lights with wipers. Reduced visibility is a major contributor to wet-weather accidents. Drivers’ views may be hampered by falling precipitation and glare from wet roadways.
Cloudy conditions and fog also compromise visibility. When using windshield wipers, turn on your headlights as well. This makes your vehicle more visible to other motorists and improves your own ability to see the road and pedestrians. • Recognize changing road conditions. Roadways accumulate oil and engine fluids that can float in rainwater, creating slippery road surfaces. This is usually a problem during the first few hours of a rainstorm or in areas that receive little precipitation and then are subjected to downpours. These fluids make rainsoaked roads even more slippery. Slow down, leave more room between vehicles and try driving in the tracks left by vehicles ahead. • Reduce speed. The automotive group AAA says hydroplaning, when the tires rise up on a film of water, can occur with as little as 1⁄12 inch of water on the road. The group goes on to say that tires have to displace a gallon of water per second to keep the rubber meeting the road. Drivers should reduce their

speeds to correspond to the amount of water on the roadway. New tires can still lose some contact with the roadway, even at a speed as low as 35 mph. Therefore, reducing speed and avoiding hard braking and turning sharply can help keep the rubber of the tire meeting the road. • Rely on the defogger. Use the car’s windshield defroster/defogger to improve visibility. Turn it on early and keep it on until the rain has stopped and visibility has improved. • Recover from a skid. Skids can be frightening, but when skidding, resist any temptation to slam on the breaks. Instead, continue to look and drive in the direction you want to go and slowly ease up on the accelerator. • Skip the cruise control. It’s important to maintain control over the vehicle in rainy conditions, so avoid using cruise control. • Maintain tires. Proper inflation and tire tread levels can improve traction. AAA recommends checking tread depth by inserting a quarter upside down into the tire groove. If you can see above Washington’s head, start shopping for new tires. Check tire pressure on all tires at least once a month. Get an accurate reading when tires are cold and adjust air pressure accordingly. • Avoid other distractions. Distracted driving can be hazardous during good road conditions and even more dangerous when visibility and other factors are compromised. Switch phones and other devices off so you can fully focus on the road and other drivers. Rainy weather can contribute to poor driving conditions. Drivers should make changes to speed and other factors to make wet weather driving as safe as possible.

GARDENING
Growing Tomatoes in High Tunnels Story by KATE MINNICH There is nothing better than a vine ripened tomato right out of the garden. Farmers have been utilizing high tunnels protected within greenhouses to lengthen the period during which the plants bear fruit. Backyard growers with small greenhouses can utilize this technique to enhance their harvest time as well. The variety of tomato chosen for high tunnel planting will affect the type of greenhouse configuration necessary for a profitable season. Determinate varieties of tomatoes are lower-growing plants that reach a particular height and stop growing vertically. Typically a horizontal trellis system is preferred for these varieties. Indeterminate varieties continue to grow vertically as long as they are healthy and not affected by frost. A vertical trellis system will enable the tomato plants to continue their climb skyward. Growing patterns for the tomatoes is reliant on the time of planting as well as the variety of plant. The determinate varieties tend to have a shorter fruit-bearing window, but

the fruit is generally ready early in the season. Staggering the maturity and planting of determinate varieties will spread out the harvest period. Indeterminate varieties typically yield more fruit overtime and can be planted early enough to produce fruit earlier. The atmosphere created within a greenhouse will affect pollination and the nutrients reaching the plants. Placing a colony of honeybees within your greenhouse will allow for pollination while receiving all the benefits of the protected environment. High nitrogen levels within the soil early in the growing process will delay the bearing of fruit and completely negate the advantages of growing tomatoes in high tunnels. Other nutrients to be conscious of are potassium, calcium and magnesium levels, all of which contribute to the health of the fruit. Monitoring the soil composition is recommended to protect and maintain overall crop health. Pruning methods for the indeterminate and determine

varieties vary and may dictate the variety chosen. The suckers on indeterminate varieties must be pruned in order to train the plant to ascend vertically. Pruning for determinate varieties is suggested as a ‘leaf per day system’ that specifically targets the leaves in the lower portion of the plants. Pruning away from the heaviest fruit-bearing areas will reserve the nutrients for the fruit rather than the leaves.
The lengthened fruit-bearing period allows those utilizing high tunnels to grow tomato plants to enjoy fresh produce both earlier and longer than tomatoes grown in a standard garden. Imagine enjoying juicy vine-ripened tomatoes straight from your garden all summer long. You’ll be the envy of the neighborhood.

W h a c k y holidays story by Kate minnich
Whacky national holidays have been appearing left and right, celebrating seemingly random activities. Each one seemingly whackier than the last, these nationally recognized holidays are celebrations ranging from hugging a cat to eating whatever you wish; each holiday can be tailored to the needs or wishes of every individual. Don’t feel like talking like a pirate, the holiday doesn’t have to be acknowledged, although one should be prepared for others to participate. Through this new phenomenon there

is nearly a holiday per day and the celebration or cheery attitude is not mandatory. These holidays are not generally celebrated through familiar gatherings or ornate dinners, yet they continue to be nationally, or even internationally, recognized. Some even slip by without anyone noticing their coming. The reason behind this surge in holiday splendor is a bit fuzzy for most, but the main push behind the idea is for an overall increase in the level of joy. As far as it can be discerned most of the holidays are devised to break up the week and the general humdrum of life. Without the amusement Talk Like a Pirate Day stirs up September can seem stale after the celebration of Labor Day. The months right after the New Year always seem unrelenting when it is realized there will not be another major holiday until May. Endless months dragging one after the other deserve a bit of spice with nationally recognized holidays created simply to bring a smile to anyone’s face. Hug Your Cat Day celebrated May third was created as a simple reminder to cat owners to hug their feline friends. Similar to other pets, cats want to be caressed and cuddled from time to time, but the messiness of life tends to get in the way and the cat’s opportunity for a back scratch can get lost. Take May third and really massage that back, just to remind your cat why you coexist in the first place. Not a cat lover? No worries, these holidays are not set in stone and can be modified to your personal preference. Others may gloss completely over Hug Your Cat Day in anticipation of Star Wars Day celebrated on May the fourth. The choice is yours. We all have at least one person we know who con-
These are only three of the best national holidays celebrated in March and they are available without any strings attached. No preparation or necessary traveling required. The beauty of these whacky holidays is that they were all created to make the human soul a bit lighter and laughter a bit more frequent.

tinuously sees the downside in every situation. February 16 was created as a way to decrease the number of these people within our society, National Do a Grump a Favor Day. For whatever reason grumpy people walk around worrying about everything and receiving little gratitude from those around them. There may be no cure for that grumpy neighbor who hates the sound of your lawnmower or the leaves from your trees, but doing something kind for them could bring a momentary smile to their faces. The origins of Do a Grump a Favor Day are a bit unclear, but some attribute the creation to Big Bird from Sesame Street as a ploy to get Oscar out of his grouchy mood. Others believe the day was created by a grumpy who has been turned grumpy due to the environment around them and only want someone to renew their faith in humanity. Whichever creation story you subscribe to, just remember simply smiling in the direction of a frown could decrease the number of grumps in our world. If you are interested in penciling in a few of these holidays to add levity to the days ahead, find a sampling below for your enjoyment. Everything You Do Is Right Day celebrated on the 16th of March is promising to improving anyone’s winter blues. No one likes to be wrong and for this one day only, no one can be wrong. Whether you believe the sky to be blue, gray or purple it is correct simply because you said it was, no need to explain yourself. Celebrate a day of doing only what you want to do instead of what you need to do for International Goof Off Day on the 22nd. Cast aside that to do list and scratch off some of those items on your bucket list. The same day is also As Young As You Feel Day so there is nothing you cannot do on this holiday. March 26, Make Up Your Own Holiday Day is perhaps the best holiday anyone could have created. It doesn’t exclude particular personalities and offers a completely legitimate reason for any behavior that may otherwise be viewed as unsavory. This could be the day you wear those parachute pants hidden in the back of your closet or enthusiastically sing along to that song your grandchildren play on repeat. Whatever you have the desire to do, take this day and do as you please.

HEALTH How to bake healthier treats Baking can be a relaxing and rewarding pastime that parents can share with their children. Baking promotes a variety of skills, including the ability to follow instructions and make measurements. Baking also employs mathematics, making baking a rather delicious science experiment. Perhaps one of the few pitfalls of baking is indulging in too many sweet treats when taste testing and then enjoying the fruits of your labors. But bakers concerned about their health can substitute healthy ingredients when recipes call for foods bakers would prefer to avoid. The following ingredients can make healthy additions to baked-good recipes without sacrificing flavor. • Whole wheat flour: Flour is at the heart of many baking recipes, including those for cakes, cookies and pies. Refined white flour may not be the healthiest ingredient, so try whole wheat flour, which is full of nutrients and an extra dose of fiber. Fiber can help lower the risk for heart disease and diabetes. Try slightly less than one cup of whole wheat flour for regular flour as a swap if a recipe calls for one cup of flour.

• Fruit puree: When a recipe calls for oil, margarine, butter or shortening, consider replacing such ingredients with fruit purees, which often add moisture and texture just as well but without the same amount of calories. Applesauce and prunes can be helpful in chocolate dishes. Pumpkin or sweet potato are other purees that can add a nutritional boost as well. • Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt is a powerhouse of protein and flavor with relatively few calories per serving. It can make a super substitution in recipes for things like sour cream, buttermilk or even cream cheese. • Applesauce: Believe it or not, unsweetened applesauce also can replace some or all of the sugar in a recipe. When doing a 1:1 ratio swap, reduce the amount of liquid in the recipe by 1⁄4 cup. • Marshmallow or meringue: Ever check the nutritional information for many store-bought cake frostings? They pack a considerable amount of calories, sugar and fat. Some also are made with hydrogenated oils. Consider using a marshmallow fluff or homemade meringue to top cupcakes or decorate cookies. • Stevia: Stevia is an herbal plant that grows primarily in South America. Stevia has a long history as a sweetener in that area, and now has become a popular sugar substitute elsewhere. Stevia is an all-natural, no-calorie, no-carbohydrate sweetener. The FDA approved only the purified form of stevia, called stevioside. Remember to check each brand’s sugar-tostevia ratio to make sure you get the right measurements for your recipe. • Egg whites: Replace a whole egg in a recipe with two egg whites or 1⁄4 cup of egg substitute. • Chocolate nibs: Nibs are processed morsels that do not have the same amount of added sugar as many chocolate chips. Dark chocolate nibs can provide a healthy dose of antioxidants as well. • Evaporated skim milk: Try evaporated skim milk in place of heavy cream to make whipped cream for a low-fat option. Baking brings family together, and the treats prepare can make an enjoyable finale to a great meal. With healthy substitutions, any recipe can be altered for the better.
