It Pays to be a Senior
By Christina Grand Porter
m
often offer
senior deals. AARP is a well known organization that champions for seniors and their card does offer benefits, but since there is a cost to join, it’s necessary to review and weigh the benefits to see if it’s worth it for you. There are discounts for purchases at restaurants, for car rentals, travel, insurances and even flowers, to name a few. I t s h o u l d be noted that s o m e t i m e s , especially when it comes to places like restaurant chains, employees may or may not be aware of senior discounts, so it is worth asking to speak to the manager to find out if there is a deal of which you can take advantage.

any businesses offer senior discounts with different age requirements, but some start as early as age 50. Sometimes t h e promotions are not welladvertised a n d customers must ask to receive them. W h e n signing up for a program for which you have to pay, review the benefits to see if there are offers you will actually take the time to redeem. Benefits for travelers aren’t going to be worth the money if you simply don’t travel, so weight the plan to see what’s in your area at places you do or could frequent. If you have a Golden Buckeye card, you don’t have to pay for the benefits, but there are a lot of seniors not taking the time to use their cards or even ask if they are accepted at certain establishments. Many major department stores offer senior discounts; Peebles in Chardon has a 50+ club where seniors who join receive a 15 percent discount the first Tuesday of every month. Phone and travel companies, hotels, restaurants, movie theaters, gyms, drug stores and salons also

Village of Middlefield Update
By Mayor Ben Garlich
I
always end my monthly articles with the same tag line. One of the elements of this closing tag line is “be involved”. Last week I attended the funeral of a lifelong resident of our Village, Stella Ohl. Not only was she a resident, she was also a neighbor and friend. During the celebration of life ceremony, many of Stella’s qualities were recited. I know from personal experience, Stella was a person of conviction and character and even though small in stature she stood tall in discussions of importance. She often called me regarding issues of concern and I appreciated her input. Stella also was the definition of “be involved”. Stella was a member of the Middlefield Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary for 55 years. She stayed active in this group from 19572012. Stella was not a member in name only she was a working member and with her effort and the effort of others both physical and financial support were provided for many causes for the betterment of our community. I will miss her.
I am concerned we are all so busy and becoming so self-absorbed that we do not feel the need or have the energy to contribute to those activities that better our community. I hope we all will evaluate where we can add value to strengthen the area we live. I hope we are instilling in our youth the value of giving back for the benefit of the whole. This winter had a slow start but has certainly made up for lost time. I’ve seen reports on many tragic accidents and fortunately not personally been involved or known anyone that has been involved in one of these events. I appreciate your patience as the service crew struggles to keep roads and sidewalks plowed. We are fortunate to have good equipment, dedicated staff of service, police and fire. I thank all of these staff members and appreciate your effort to protect and serve in all conditions. I enjoy the fact that I can purchase all my needs within a mile of my residence. Please conduct yourself safely as we all look forward to better weather. Be involved, be informed, shop local and visit www.middlefieldohio.com.

Sergeant Brandon Savage (left) presented the Life Saving Award to Chief Joe Tucholski.
MPD Chief Joe Tucholski Commended Chief Joe Tucholski was granted the “Life Saving Award” at the Middlefield Village Council meeting on Feb. 5. Sergeant Brandon Savage presented the award on behalf of the entire police department, the mayor and Village council. Chief Tucholski received this award because, on Jan. 23, he was dispatched to the parking lot at the Middlefield McDonalds where a woman was choking. When Chief Tucholski arrived the woman was unconscious and not breathing. He immediately wrapped his arms around her and began life saving measures. He performed the Heimlich maneuver several times until she began gasping for air and breathing on her own. He then placed her on the ground and wrapped her in blankets until medical personnel arrived on the scene (the police carry the quilts made and donated by the Middlefield Country Quilters in the police cars). The Village of Middlefield is fortunate to have Joe Tucholski as Chief of Police.

These photos are of the Middlefield Phone Book of 1927. I do not know who owned the phone company then, but when it was sold to Alltel it was owned by James Hunt. 1927 was a time where every call had to go through an operator, usually a local resident, who usually knew everything about everyone. Calls were placed on the old crank telephones. The telephone office and equipment where kept at one time in the Charles Brigden home that was located on the north end of the downtown Gazebo Park. The farther from the office, the harder it was to get good service. Since there are no addresses, I believe that most every name here of approximately 150 was in the village.

Video Crew Films Cardinal Local Schools A video crew from the Ohio Center for Autism and Low Incidence (OCALI) out of Columbus, visited the Cardinal Local School District on Feb. 10, to film students and teachers in the Specialized Teaching for students with Autism and Resource Support (S.T.A.R.S.) inclusion classrooms for an online training video. S.T.A.R.S. is a program offered through the Geauga County Educational Service Center, housed in the Cardinal School District. Cardinal classrooms host S.T.A.R.S. students in their regular class instruction. Students in Mrs. Gail Duchscherer’s fourth-grade math class at Cardinal Intermediate School and students in Mrs. Stephanie Boles’ sixthgrade science class at Cardinal Middle School are to be featured in the video. Mrs. Boles says, “Since we don’t always know what students with special needs are capable of, we need to expose them to as much as possible as often as possible in
authentic settings.” Cardinal is just one of 12 schools in Ohio to be selected for the online training videos. OCALI says the videos are targeting direct service providers who work with individuals on the spectrum to provide professional development on evidence-based practices to teachers, intervention specialists, paraeducators, and other professionals providing classroom assistance to those on the spectrum.
Kindergarten Celebrates 100 Days Of School
Reroofing
Fredericksburg, Ohio 44627
A major milestone for Cardinal Local Schools’ Kindergarten classes – they’ve officially had 100 days of class. Students in Mrs. Dyer’s and Mrs. Derecskey’s classes decorated their rooms, read stories about 100 days, collected 100 items by choosing 10 things from 10 different stations, completed as many jumping jacks, toe touches, squats, and eye blinks as possible in 100 seconds, and counted by ones and 10s to 100. Students also created 100 Trail Mix by choosing and sorting food items by 10s. Students and teachers even dressed up like they were 100 years old. Mrs. Misinec’s first-grade class also participated in the day’s events. Those students made 100 Days Crowns and wore them all day. They also shared their projects which contained 100 items each. Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Dyer, won the award for Best Dressed 100-year old. Congratulations students and teachers. Keep up the great work for the rest of the year.

About 20 Cardinal Middle School students from Ms. Berigan’s, Miss Karg’s, Mrs. Libby’s, and Mr. Ruscitto’s classes took over the classroom kitchen to put their recent culinary lessons to the test on Jan. 23. “Once a month our classes get together to participate in a project like this,” said instructor Karen Berigen. “The group activity gives students a chance to apply the transition and career-readiness skills they’ve been learning in class, and this time they get a little snack to go with their efforts.” Students in the eighth-grade classes gave group presentations on kitchen safety and hygiene rules before students washed hands and split into groups for their cooking activities. At their stations, students were eager to follow recipe instructions to concoct their culinary creations. With the help of teachers and four Cardinal High School student volunteers, the middle school chefs made minipizzas, no-bake cinnamon rolls, and s’mores - all of which got a rousing “thumbs up” after a taste test! One student was heard saying, “This was a lot of fun, I can’t wait to try this at home with my family.” Instructing students on transition and career-readiness goals is a new part of the curriculum this year at the Middle School. Each month the students focus on a new goal and then participate in an activity that utilizes that goal. “We’ve seen tremendous success so far in implementing these activities as a group with our students,” said Berigen. “As an educator, nothing is more satisfying than seeing your students succeed using a lesson or skill they learned in the classroom.”

health Heart Disease: What You Need to Know By Amber Seel February is American Heart Month. The American Heart Association and the Centers for Disease Control use the month of February as an opportunity to educate Americans about the leading cause of death in both men and women, i.e. heart disease. What is heart disease? Although heart disease takes the lives of over 600,000 Americans each year, many people still don’t understand exactly what heart disease is. Simply explained, heart disease includes any illness affecting the heart. There are many different types of heart disease; heart failure, an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia), heart valve problems and coronary artery disease. All can lead to a heart attack or stroke. What are the symptoms of a heart attack? The symptoms of a heart attack can vary by gender and medical problems. However, research has given us some warning signs to watch out for. The National Institute of Health tells us that the most common symptoms of heart attack include left-sided or centralized chest pain that can be mild or severe, discomfort in the upper body including either or both arms, back, shoulder, jaw and neck pain as well as shortness of breath. Women often experience fatigue, nausea, vomiting and pain in the back, shoulders and jaw. Some people may experience a cold sweat or dizziness. Some patients experience no symptoms at all; these are called silent heart attacks. Individuals with Diabetes often experience no symptoms or very mild symptoms. What you need to know. Time is of the essence in a heart attack. Rapid care can save your life. Do not hesitate to call 9-1-1 if you think you may be having a heart attack. Also keep in mind that heart attack symptoms can occur suddenly, or over the course of several days. All chest pain should be evaluated by your doctor. Know your risk factors. High Blood Pressure. High blood pressure can damage your arteries. This damage can lead to narrowed arteries that are more likely to become hardened with fatty deposits and thus the development of Coronary Artery Disease.
“My neck pain was so severe that I couldn’t turn my neck to drive.To turn my head, I would have to turn my entire body.Thanks to Dr. Dave, I am experiencing the freedom of a pain-free life.”

High Cholesterol. When your blood contains too much cholesterol, the cholesterol begins to build up in the walls if your arteries. This causes the arteries to become narrow and it blocks blood flow to your heart. Diabetes. Individuals with diabetes are more likely to have hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity and a sedentary lifestyle. The combination of all of these risk factors is why diabetic individuals are two to four times more likely to have a heart attack. Family History. If you have a close relative (sibling, parent or grandparent) who has heart disease, you are at much greater risk of developing it yourself. Smoking Status. Tobacco use is a huge risk factor for heart disease. If you smoke, quit. Obesity. Being overweight stresses your heart, can raise your cholesterol levels, increase blood pressure and is associated with Diabetes. Maintaining a healthy weight is a huge way to ensure your heart’s health. Not Being Physically Active, Physical inactivity increases weight gain and can lead to the development of hypertension, diabetes and high cholesterol. A healthy heart requires exercise. Preventing heart disease is extremely difficult if you don’t have a relationship with a physician. You should see a doctor on a regular basis to ensure you are managing your risk factors for heart disease. This means having your cholesterol checked on a regular basis, developing a weight loss plan, developing an exercise plan, and managing chronic illnesses like hypertension and diabetes. The first step to preventing heart disease is partnering with a physician to manage your health care. The Middlefield Clinic is located at 15561 W. High St. in Harrington Square. They welcome new patients. Healthcare is changing rapidly and they can help you negotiate these changes. They promise to be your good health advisor and advocate. Call them at 440-632-1118.

A Locomotive Engineer
This is Don Benham coming to you from Brooks House Assisted living at The Pines. I was the last of a long line of Locomotive engineers, starting in the 1800s with my father’s grandfather, and on up to me. I also had engineers on my mother’s side. Today we are called enginemen. I joined my father, two uncles and a cousin on the New York Central which later became Penn Central then changed again to Conrail. Even though the name changed it never affected my working conditions. My father’s father as well as his two brothers worked as an engineer throughout several states. I enjoyed my work. For one thing I didn’t have a boss looking over my shoulder all the time. It was a great time during my life. I started my career as a fireman on coal fired steam engines and worked towards a position as an engineer. I worked for 14 years on steam engines until the company converted to diesel. I retired in 1979 ending a thirty-eight year career. The last train I ran was a freight train. My job as the engineer was to regulate the speed and to follows rules of the federal government and the railroad along with being sure
to watch and obey the signals. I want to tell you about one unusual train we had that hauled coal from Uniontown, Pa. to Toledo Edison Power Company in Toledo. The train had three diesel units on the head end and two diesel units in the middle, all controlled from the engineers position in the lead unit. There were 140 cars and each one could hold 100 ton of coal. They went empty to Uniontown; here the train split at the middle unit. The lead units went in one way and loaded it’s cars and then middle unit would load its cars. When filled the middle unit would attach to the tail end of the first unit and away the train would go. It would then go to Toledo Edison Power Company. The engineer crew got off and the crew that dumped the coal took over. Between the first two cars were swiveled couplers so they could dump their loads without disconnecting. Every two cars had a swivel coupler to accomplish the task. When completely unloaded the engine crew boarded and took the train back to Uniontown. Among other trains I hauled coal for thirty-eight years. I am sorry that I held all you folk up at road crossing.

Supplement Chimeras
Don’t let your furnace feel like this!
By Dr. David Fakadej
A
chimera is an imaginary monster with non-matching parts (fire-breathing she-monster with a lion’s head, goat’s body, and serpent’s tail) otherwise known as supplements. Two vital questions: does it work and are there side-effects? There are three important details for supplements sold in grocery or drug stores, on TV, or off Internet campaigns: 1) Does it have the ingredient listed? 2) Is the dose therapeutic? 3) Is it potent or stale? Recent investigation found common stores (major stores with name brand supplements) sold Chimeras! Nearly four out of five supplements labeled ginseng, echinacea, ginkgo, garlic, saw palmetto, and others contained no trace of the substance but do contain powdered rice, wheat, palm, mustard, radish, citrus, house plants, and other non-matching parts. I won’t mention the 5 most notable retail stores, but they are all in the community. I won’t mention the supplement brands, but they are in the local community stores. The findings do not surprise me, yet are a surprise because past studies show misinformation within the supplement industry as pervasive; nothing changed. No government standardized testing for content, purity, effectiveness, or rancidity, and no need for supplement companies or stores to utilize relevant research as to the effectiveness of the health claims on the bottle. In other words, if the bottle says ‘improves memory’ it is based on what people say and want to believe – not based on research. As of February, 2015, the FDA is using a

law-enforcement agency and DNA analyses of the products to issue legal action and cease and desist orders to stop sales of deliberately misleading herbal products. Part of the problem stems from the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, which absolves supplements of requirements to test for safety or effectiveness. Supplement manufacturers do not need to disclose risks. For example, ginger can thin the blood – shouldn’t people taking blood thinning drugs know this? None of this implies that if a supplement is not a chimera, that it offers benefit in actuality. If anyone desires a lucrative sham, the supplement industry offers promise: make a counter-cultural product exempt from meaningful regulation. Promise longer life and happiness with less anxiety and better sex. Promote it as natural or alternative to pharmaceuticals (that undergo testing and have a degree of effectiveness) . . . and market it with ethical fallacies – so for example, depression effects your dog and children (plea to emotion) so you must ask your doctor for the drug/supplement. Doctors in the 1800’s used this tactic to sell snake oil remedies and drug companies use this tactic today to sell drugs. In my practice, I ask does it work and do you have side-effects? I presume M.D.s ask the same about prescription drugs. If there are side-effects or if it does not work, a change is in order. Instead, people hear they must take a supplement/drug with no meaningful instruction to insure benefits, that there is no adverse reaction, and when to continue using it. Hence the death rate on the medical end is number three (behind heart disease and cancer) and people are spending hundreds monthly on chimeras. How much do you spend on health? Does it work? Are there side effects? What are the actual ingredients? Is it a therapeutic dose? Is it stale? Work with your personal doctor to determine this – not the neighbor or TV ad profiting from sales telling you that if you have an adverse reaction. “it is working, and it means you need more!” I heard this comment from patients. This is wrong - and potentially fatal!
