Even though chimneys do not require daily upkeep, regular maintenance efforts help chimneys operate safely and prevent deaths and injuries while protecting homes from fire.
Various problems can arise when chimneys are not well maintained. Such problems include chimney fires, carbon monoxide poisoning and early failure of the chimney and heating sources that the chimney vents.
Carbon monoxide can be scary, as it is virtually invisible without a proper detector. The National Vital Statistics System says that, in 2015, 393 deaths resulted from unintentional carbon monoxide poisoning in the United States. When carbon monoxide is breathed in, it builds up quickly and combines with the blood, reducing the blood’s ability to carry oxygen. The Canada Safety Council says that body tissue and cells can’t function without oxygen.
Chimney fires are another potential byproduct of poor chimney maintenance. The Chimney Safety Institute of America notes that chimneys expel the byproducts of combustion, including smoke, water vapor, gases, unburned wood particles, hydrocarbon, tar fog, and assorted minerals, which can condense on the inside of the chimney flue. The residue, called creosote, is highly combustible. With the right conditions, a chimney fire can occur.
Foods at farmers’ markets tend to be limited to in-season offerings. Some nutritionists suggest eating seasonally available foods is better for your body, because humans ate seasonal produce for thousands of years before shipping and refrigeration changed how people received the majority of their foods. In addition, many people feel that fresh, seasonal foods taste better than the alternatives.

DID YOU KNOW? A landmark study conducted by researchers in the United Kingdom discovered a notable link between low to moderate alcohol consumption and breast cancer risk. According to the Million Women Study, every 10 grams (roughly 0.35 ounces) of alcohol a woman consumed per day was associated with a 12 percent increase in her risk for breast cancer. The Million Women Study focused on various areas of women’s health but included 28,000 women who had breast cancer. In addition, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism notes that more than 100 epidemiologic studies have examined a potential association between alcohol consumption and the risk for breast cancer, consistently finding that risk for the disease increases as alcohol intake increases.

This Senior Apartment Complex Smells! What used to be nice senior apartments is now filthy, dirty, and a very low caliber of people. Drugs. Drinking. Constant overnight guests. Dirty animals. Bad behavior. Smoking inside. It sounds harsh but it’s a fact. How can new managers bring down a building so fast? In a matter of a few years! It literally smells in there. It’s going to take years to clean up, if you care to. In the meantime it falls on you and your reputation of not doing a very good job. It might pay to bring in older, experienced and wiser people to manage it.
The [local town] Airport
Thank you!
On behalf of all the Henrietta Seniors that attended the trip to the Seneca Park Zoo, I would like to thank the Staff at the Zoo who were so helpful answering all our questions and to Nicole and Diane of the Henrietta Senior Center for being awesome and helping us through the entire trip, it is nice to attend a place were Seniors are treated with respect.
Can’t believe a multi-million dollar renovation is necessary for our [local town] Airport after the many million dollar renovation recently completed. Our small city airport functions just fine without the “enhancements” that are proposed. “Natural lighting” shouldn’t cost millions. This sounds like a huge rip-off for our tax dollars. Fix the roads instead!
Beautiful smiles enhance self-confidence & self-esteem.

SECONDARY RISK FACTORS FOR GUM RECESSION
Gum recession happens when your gums pull away from your teeth and expose the roots, making the teeth sensitive and more prone to cavities. Accumulating tartar and delayed dental cleanings lead to periodontal disease, which is the leading cause of receding gums. As receding gums expose the gumline, it becomes even easier for bacteria, plaque, and tartar to accumulate. When gums recede, they make periodontal disease worse, and each condition continues complicating the other. Occasionally, there are other causes or contributing factors for gum recession. Aggressive tooth brushing, tongue and lip piercings, tobacco products, and existing or prior orthodontics can all cause gum recession. For some, genetic predisposition to thin gums is also a major contributor.
Avoid that moment of panic and regret that comes when you realize you’ve neglected your oral hygiene routine for too long and now must deal with the consequences. At BATAVIA FAMILY DENTAL, we are adept at dealing with those consequences, and will do all we can to turn your smile into the one you’ve always dreamed of having. When you’re ready to take that first step, we’re ready for your call at 585.343.4246, 6 Batavia City Centre.
P.S. Gum recession can affect just one tooth or several teeth, and it affects almost 90% of people over 65 in one or more teeth.
By Keith Roach, M.D.
DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a healthy 55-year-old woman who eats well and exercises (with both weights and cardio) six to seven times per week. Four years ago, I was diagnosed with Lynch syndrome. (I have the “MLH1” genotype.) My primary care physician suggested testing after my sister died of cancer at the age of 48. (Doctors were never able to determine if she had breast or lung cancer because of the location of the cancer.) All of my siblings (four of us) have been tested, and each of us has it. Two of my nieces have also tested positive for it.
I have three adult children of my own, and my doctor told me that at least one of them will have it. Of my three children, only one has been tested, and she tested positive for it. Since my diagnosis, I have been receiving regular preventive care such as colonoscopies, endoscopies and mammograms. Other than some polyps that were removed, checked, and free of cancer, all procedures have come back “clear.”
One doctor told me to eat little to no red meat, follow a Mediterranean-style diet, and exercise. Another told me: “Live your life and eat whatever you want. Lynch Syndrome is hereditary. No matter what you do, you’ll either get cancer, or you won’t!”
I feel like I’m getting mixed messages from my doctors. Could you please tell me more information about Lynch syndrome? Does this mean that I will definitely end up getting cancer? Is there preventive care that I should focus on? -- G.R.
ANSWER: Lynch syndrome is caused by a mutation in a group of DNA repair genes. Without these repair genes, a person’s DNA is more liable to have errors in it when duplicated, which leads to an increased risk of cancers. People with Lynch syndrome are particularly at risk for colon cancer, but also cancers of the stomach, kidney, bladder and other organs. Women are at a higher risk for endometrial and ovarian cancer, but it remains debated whether breast cancer is a Lynch-associated cancer. Men with Lynch syndrome are at a higher risk for prostate cancer.
Among family members, it is expected that half will inherit the Lynch mutation. Your family has been unlucky. I recommend that your other children get tested soon.
Of the four major genotypes in Lynch syndrome, MLH1 tends to have the highest risk of cancer, and approximately 70% to 80% of women with this genotype will get a Lynch-associated cancer, usually colon or endometrial. The goal is to find and remove these cancers before they can spread.
www.bataviafamilydental.com
I strongly disagree with the doctor who suggested that diet isn’t important. When you are at a higher risk for cancer, it’s more important to have the healthiest lifestyle you can. A Mediterraneanstyle diet, which is high in fruits and vegetables and low in processed foods and meat, is likely to reduce your cancer risk, but it is critically important to continue screening.
A colonoscopy is recommended every one to two years. Many experts perform endometrial biopsies every year, despite ironclad evidence of benefit. Ovarian cancer screening is controversial and of uncertain benefit; some high-risk women have chosen a riskreducing surgery to remove their ovaries and fallopian tubes. Any symptoms of endometrial or ovarian cancer should be discussed with your physician, who can decide whether to do additional testing.

(NAPSI) — During these challenging times, people are avoiding the supermarket and, instead, stocking up on shelf-stable and frozen foods. Unfortunately, these can often be loaded with preservatives and lack nutrition. Many families also resort to take-out foods that can be high in sodium, hydrogenated fats and refined sugars.
“The best solution is to find healthy, prepared products that can be purchased in bulk at the supermarket, online and delivered to your doorstep,” advises consumer trends expert Merilee Kern.
One of Kern’s personal favorites is Veggies Made Great, which offers easy, familyfriendly and delicious veggie-rich meals and snacks such as muffins, frittatas and veggie cakes. They can fill freezers and keep families healthy—even during stressful times.
Vegetables including carrots, zucchini and kale are the first and primary ingredients in any Veggies Made Great item, and all are free of gluten, soy, peanuts and dairy. Available in the freezer section, each is individually wrapped and can be quickly and easily heated in the oven or microwave. It’s an easy and tasty way to have veggiedriven nutrition on the menu every day.

Keeping weeds at bay is an ongoing battle for gardeners, but there are several tried and true methods to help you maintain a weed-free garden. Here are some effective strategies to consider:
1. Mulching: Mulching is one of the most effective ways to suppress weeds. Apply a layer of organic mulch, such as wood chips, straw, or bark, around your plants. Mulch helps smother weed seeds, prevents their germination, and blocks sunlight from reaching existing weeds. It also helps retain moisture in the soil and improves its fertility. Regularly replenish the mulch layer to maintain its effectiveness.
2. Hand Pulling: For small areas or isolated weeds, hand pulling is a practical and eco-friendly method. Ensure you remove the entire weed, including the roots, to prevent regrowth. It’s best to pull weeds when the soil is moist, making it easier to extract them. Regularly inspect your garden and promptly remove any emerging weeds before they have a chance to spread.
3. Weed Barriers: Weed barriers, such as landscape fabric or cardboard, can be used in conjunction with mulch to create an additional barrier against weeds. These materials block weed growth by preventing sunlight from reaching the soil. Place the barrier over the soil before applying mulch, ensuring it covers the entire planting area. Cut holes in the barrier to accommodate existing plants.
4. Weed Control Fabric: For larger areas, weed control fabric can be an effective solution. This permeable fabric allows water and nutrients to reach the plants while blocking weed growth. Install the fabric on the soil surface before planting, securing it with landscape pins. Cut holes in the fabric to accommodate the desired planting areas. It’s important to regularly inspect and remove any weeds that may emerge around the holes.
5. Regular Maintenance: Regular maintenance is key to weed prevention. Keep your garden beds tidy by removing debris and fallen leaves, as they can provide a breeding ground for weed seeds. Regularly hoe or cultivate the soil to disrupt weed growth and prevent them from establishing deep roots. Additionally, practicing good garden hygiene by removing weeds before they go to seed will help prevent future weed problems. Remember, a combination of these methods is often the most effective approach. It’s also important to be vigilant and address weeds as soon as they appear to prevent them from spreading and competing with your desired plants. With consistent effort and the right strategies, you can keep weeds under control and enjoy a healthier, more attractive garden.
e Master Gardener Program is a national program of trained volunteers who work in partnership with their county CCE office to extend information throughout their communities.
Chronic stress: Chronic stress has long been linked to a host of health problems. According to the Mayo Clinic, chronic stress puts individuals at increased risk for heart disease and weight gain but also issues that affect mood, including anxiety and depression. Individuals who find themselves routinely confronting bad moods may be dealing with chronic stress. Identifying the source of that stress and speaking with a health care professional about how to reduce and manage it may lead to improvements in mood.

Cherry pit spitting is the act of spitting out remains of cherries from one’s mouth to send them as far away as possible. Thousands of people, comprising contestants and spectators around the U.S., gather at specified venues to participate and witness this exciting holiday. The origin of the day is associated with Herb Teichman. He is the owner of Tree-mendus Fruit Farm. They first held a fun competition of cherry pit spitting in 1974 at his farm.
BUT... have you ever wondered how you can just enjoy cherries without trying to tear out the pits first? Well, guess what, there is a cherry pitter! It looks like a giant hole punch, except it’s for punching out cherry pits and it does four cherries at a time. It’s simply amazing! You won’t ever have to spit out or tear out cherry pits again!

DID YOU KNOW?
Volunteering is a great way for individuals to strengthen their communities, but it also can be a unique way for individuals to improve their own overall happiness. A 2020 study published in the Journal of Happiness Studies examined 70,000 participants, each of whom received surveys that asked questions regarding their volunteering habits and mental health.The study found that, when compared to those who did not volunteer, people who had volunteered in the previous 12 months were more satisfied with their lives and gave their overall health higher ratings. The frequency of giving back to one’s community also may affect just how much volunteering affects mental health. Study participants who volunteered at least once per month rated their mental health even higher than those who volunteered but did so infrequently.

12th marks National Eat Your Jell-O Day, a celebration that resonates deeply with residents of Western NY and holds a special place in the hearts of many. is delightful gelatin dessert, known for its bright colors and playful wobble, began in LeRoy, NY, and the JELL-O Museum continues to delight visitors with the fascinating history and legacy of JELL-O.
e JELL-O Museum, operated by the LeRoy Historical Society, attracts around 5,000 visitors annually from all over the United States, Canada, and beyond. According to Sam Zalacca, Vice President of the LeRoy Historical Society, JELL-O’s enduring appeal lies in its simplicity and versatility. “It is easy and quick to prepare along with the variety of use from simple dessert in a bowl to adding fruit, adding vegetables for a JELLO salad, or a fancy mold, has made JELLO a staple from generation to generation.”
Zalacca’s favorite exhibits include the JELL-O arch from the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics and vintage photos of factory machinery. ese artifacts offer a glimpse into the industrial heritage of JELL-O, reflecting its journey from a local innovation to a national icon.
e history of JELL-O begins with a serendipitous invention by LeRoy carpenter, Pearle Wait, in 1897. While Peter Cooper initially patented a product ‘set’ with gelatin in 1845, that early version didn’t last. When Wait initially experimented with cough remedies and laxative teas, adding flavoring and coloring to granulated gelatin, he produced a sweet, fruitflavored powder that could be added to boiling water and served upon cooling. His wife, May, named this new gelatin-based treat JELL-O, and the rest is history.
Lacking the resources to market the new product, however, Wait sold the formula to fellow LeRoy manufacturer, Orator Frank Woodward, for $450. Under Woodward’s stewardship and an impressive marketing campaign for the time, JELL-O, under the Genesee Pure Food Company label, quickly gained popularity, and by 1902, annual sales skyrocketed to $250,000.
roughout the 20th century, JELL-O evolved from a high-society delicacy to a beloved household staple, democratizing what was once a luxury dessert. Nathaniel Meyersohn of CNN highlights this transformation, noting that “During the Victorian era, decorative gelatin molds were a symbol of high society and served to royalty. JELL-O gave middle-class consumers access to a luxurious food that had only been accessible to the wealthy.” e JELL-O Museum’s display of historical molds offers a fascinating look at these trends.
Marketing played a crucial role in JELL-O’s success. By targeting women’s magazines and emphasizing ease of preparation, JELL-O became accessible to American families. e introduction of the JELL-O Girl in 1904 further cemented its appeal to children and homemakers alike.
ere were a few hiccups in the flavor board (such as the short-lived savory flavors such as seasoned tomato, celery, mixed vegetable, and Italian salad used in JELL-O “salads” in the 1950s and ‘60s as a “colorful way to use le overs in side dishes,” the Cola flavor, or even the chocolate flavor that proved unaccepted as gelatin but perfect for the transition to pudding). However, JELL-O fruit flavors have stood the test of time and still grace supermarket shelves, a tasty treat that’s easy to make. Shi ing marketing gears to single-serve, ready-to-eat servings, pudding cups, Jigglers, and even sugar-free options, JELL-O persisted.
According to the University of Michigan’s JELL-O exhibit, “JELL-O became both famous and quintessentially American: it is sweet and processed, colorful and slightly fantastical.”
JELL-O remains a cultural icon with a 99% brand recognition rate. Lynne Belluscio of the LeRoy Museum says JELL-O “remains a cultural curiosity,” noting that visitors o en leave inspired to revisit this simple yet elegant dessert. No matter where JELL-O’s legacy goes, it is awesome to know that such a nationwide craze began right here in our backyard.
e JELL-O Museum hosts various community events, including the annual OATKA Festival and the “I Love New York” tourist weekend. Historical Society members visit local organizations to present the JELL-O story, and the museum hosts the annual Genesee County Chamber of Commerce’s A er-Hours event that’s always a nostalgic hit. A recent charming tradition is the JELL-O Toddler Contest, inspired by a toddler’s delight in eating JELL-O on the museum’s porch. Each year, photos of toddlers enjoying JELL-O are submitted and voted on, adding a whimsical touch to the museum’s activities.
Owned and operated by the LeRoy Historical Society, the JELL-O Museum on East Main Street, LeRoy, is open ursdays through Sundays from May through December.
Celebrate National Eat Your JELL-O Day by visiting the JELL-O Museum in LeRoy and rediscover the wobbly wonder that has brought joy to generations. A er all “ ere’s always room for JELL-O!”

Much like adults can benefit from participating in hobbies, children can reap rewards from engaging in hobbies. According to the Child Development Institute, hobbies give children a chance to express themselves. The CDI also notes that hobbies can play an important role in children’s self-discovery and boost their self-esteem.
Some children may discover hobbies on their own, requiring little if any assistance on the part of their parents. For example, some kids may display an interest in music that parents, even those with no such musical inclination, can foster by purchasing certain instruments. But some children may need a little more prompting, and parents of such boys and girls can take certain steps to help their youngsters find rewarding hobbies.
Involve kids in your own hobbies. Kids look up to their parents and often want to emulate what their mothers and fathers do. If possible, involve children in your own hobbies. Gardeners can teach their youngsters how to grow and tend to a garden, while painters can host family painting nights where everyone is encouraged to create their own masterpiece. Parents whose hobbies are more adult-oriented, like woodworking, can still involve their children. For example, work with children to design a new item, then show them how the item goes from paper to finished product; just avoid allowing them to use any unsafe tools or machines.
Let kids choose an activity. While some children might take to hobbies their parents favor, others might need to be given some freedom to find their own activities. Afford youngsters this chance, recognizing that it might take some time before kids find an activity that genuinely sparks their passion.
Be a source of encouragement. Some hobbies may prove more difficult than kids first imagined, requiring some perseverance before they can be enjoyed fully. In such instances, observe youngsters while they engage in the activity. If they appear to be enjoying themselves but are periodically frustrated, encourage them to keep trying. If kids appear to be disinterested in overcoming any struggles, then they might benefit by pursuing another hobby.
Don’thesitatetofocusonfun.Hobbiescanteachkidsvaluablelessonsand provide a sense of fulfillment, but it’s important that parents not overlook the importance of fun in regard to their children’s hobbies. Hobbies can provide children with the same respite from busy schedules that they do adults, and that break should be as fun as possible.

DatafromtheUnitedStatesDepartment of Justice indicates that partner violence accounted for 20 percent of all violent crime in the U.S. in 2018. The World Health Organization defines intimate partner violence as behavior within an intimate relationship that causes physical,sexual or psychological harm. Such violence can include acts of physical aggression, sexual coercion, psychological abuse, and controlling behaviors. Violence perpetrated by both current and former spouses and partners falls under the umbrella of intimate partner violence. Domestic violence is so prevalent that the National Network to End Domestic Violence reports that it fields more than 19,000 calls on a typical day. Anyone who is a victim of domestic violence or suspects a loved one or acquaintance is being abused is urged to call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 (SAFE) or 1-800-7873224 (TTY) right away.

Restlessness: Fleas are uncomfortable and can upset pets. If your dog or cat is acting out of sorts, fleas could be to blame.
By Sam Mazzotta
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: While checking my little Terrier, “Fritz,” a er a walk, I found one small tick just hanging on his fur. I don’t know what I would have done if it had attached itself to his skin. What’s the procedure? Should I rush him to the vet if a tick attaches itself? -- Carla in Albany, New York
DEAR CARLA: Excellent work in checking Fritz’s coat right away a er your walk! Ticks are so common now that it’s important to check a er every outdoor foray, even if your dog never leaves the sidewalk. A tick check is a fast way to make sure -- just by running your hand along your pet’s coat, down and then up.
You do not need to rush your dog to the vet for an embedded tick. You can remove it yourself. Here’s how:
-- Grab a pair of tweezers and a magnifying glass. If you have surgical gloves and a tick remover tool, even better.
-- Have another person hold your dog still while you locate the embedded tick.
-- Carefully grasp the tick with the tweezers as close to the dog’s skin as possible, near its head.
-- Slowly, steadily pull the tick out. Don’t jerk. Place the tick into a plastic bag with a little isopropyl alcohol.
-- Clean the dog’s skin with a dab of isopropyl alcohol and apply antibiotic ointment.
A er removing the tick, monitor your dog for a few days and keep an eye on the bite area to make sure an infection doesn’t develop. If you notice changes in his behavior, signs of illness or the bite area gets infected, then it’s time to see the vet, and bring the tick along in a plastic bag.

* A local folk remedy in Boho, Ireland, involved placing soil from the local church under one’s pillow while sleeping to cure infections. The nature of the remedy proved more scientific than divine when, in 2018, a microbiologist found the soil contains a previously unknown strain of streptomyces, which can be used to create antibiotics.

* Comic Sans, designed by Vincent Connare in 1995, has been labeled the world’s most hated font. Even its creator isn’t much of a fan, admitting that he has only used it once, to write a complaint letter to his internet provider. At least he received a refund.
Serves 6 to 8
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 2 pounds apples, peeled, cored and cut into thick slices
1/2 cup honey, preferably sage honey
1/2 cup white wine
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 lemon
Fresh sage sprigs for garnish
1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the apples, turn the heat to high and sauté until they begin to brown on the edges, about 5 minutes. If some are getting too well done, remove them and place on a plate while the rest continue to cook, then return them to the skillet when all are done.
2. Reduce the heat to low and add the honey, wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1/2 cup water. Cover and allow to cook until the apples are tender but still firm; you don’t want them to turn into applesauce.
3. Serve this in a bowl, tuck in a couple sprigs of fresh sage from your garden, and tell your guests all about sage honey.

Determine how much space you truly need. Current business owners and prospective owners can save substantial amounts of money and avoid wasting energy by giving ample thought to how much office space they truly need. Large office spaces may not be necessary for businesses that recently downsized staff, while those starting out may want to start in small spaces before upgrading to larger spaces if and when their businesses expand. Small business owners leasing their office space can speak with their leasing agents to determine if they can include a clause in their lease that allows them to move into larger spaces if the need arises before their existing leases expire.
