Regarding the shooting at the Kansas Chiefs Parade, verses from God’s Word would have prevented the sorrow: Proverbs 1:5, A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels: verse 7, The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instructions: verse 8, My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: verse 10-11, My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not! If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk for the innocent without cause: verse 15-16, My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path, for those feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood. The BIBLE is still the answer to Life. Amen.

HOW SMALL BUSINESSES CAN MAKE THE MOST OF LOCAL MARKETS

Do your research: Chances are business owners can find a number of festival or marketplace opportunities in or around their communities each month. Some of these festivals may be large scale events like annual Christmas bazaars, while others might be more toned down affairs that occur each week. Business owners can research local festivals, paying particular attention to how communities market the events and which businesses attend them. Community turnout is another significant factor to consider. Such research can help business owners determine which festivals best suit their businesses and what they’re hoping to accomplish.

HOBBIES FOR DIFFERENT PERSONALITY TYPES

Athletes can pursue a host of potential hobbies or activities that will foster their love of sports. Men and women who still have a hop in their step can sign up to compete in adult sports leagues. Depending on the sport, leagues might be available to adults of various ages and skill levels, and some may even be more focused on fun than competition.

For athletes who can no longer lace up their cleats, coaching youth sports or volunteering to coach at a nearby school provides a chance to stay involved even if competing is no longer possible.

DID YOU KNOW? Leisure activities may be widely viewed as fun ways to fill up free time, but the benefits of leisure activities extend beyond beating boredom. A 2011 analysis published in the journal BBA Molecular Basis of Disease found that leisure activities have a positive impact on cognitive function and dementia. The analysis, conducted by researchers with the Aging Research Center in Stockholm who examined various studies regarding the relationship between certain activities and cognitive function, defined leisure activity as the voluntary use of free time for activities outside the home. After retirement, leisure time constitutes a large part of many retirees’ lives, and finding ways to fill that time is more beneficial than merely avoiding boredom. The researchers behind the study concluded that the existing research is insufficient to draw any firm conclusions regarding the effects of certain types of leisure activities on the risk for dementia and cognitive decline, though they did note that multi-domain cognitive training has the potential to improve cognitive function in healthy older adults and slow decline in affected individuals. A multi-domain approach to cognitive training involves memory, reasoning, problem-solving, and map reading, among other activities. Aging adults who embrace activities that require the use of such skills may find that they’re not only finding

ways to

their free time, but increasing their chances of long-term cognitive health as well.

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Cat Walking…

Beneficial or not?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I have a neighbor who puts both of her cats on leashes and walks them through the neighborhood each day. Shouldn’t they be outside on their own, prowling and doing cat stuff? Sign me -- Concerned Cat Mom in Providence, Rhode Island

DEAR CONCERNED: As long as the cats aren’t distressed by the leash, I don’t see a problem.

Some cats are completely uninterested in exploring the world outside, and some are downright fearful of it. And that’s totally fine. Others, however, want to be outside every chance they get.

Letting cats wander outside puts them at risk of being struck by a car, attacked by wildlife or feral cats, or contracting an illness. Cats can be a menace to other creatures, so much so that there’s evidence they are impacting the bird population. Songbirds are already under threat from climate change and bird flu (which spreads just as easily among wild birds as it does on chicken farms), so adding another predator to the list is not a good thing.

Putting a cat on a leash (and in a harness, rather than a collar) is a great way to help them explore while keeping them safe. It’s also helpful when taking your cat on long car trips -- they can stretch their legs safely at rest stops.

For those who’d like to try walking their cat, buy a harness that fits your cat. Cats won’t like the harness at first; put it on and just let them get used to it while you hold the leash loosely. Make it a positive experience with lots of treats. Once they start exploring comfortably with the harness on, walk around with them, guiding them. Don’t tug on the leash or drag them. Pick them up if they won’t move, but always keep it positive.

ABlanche Stuart Scott: Rochester’s Aviation Pioneer and ‘Tomboy of the Air’

melia Earhart is o en the most recognizable woman in aviation, researched by schoolchildren across the country and perhaps the world. Her cross-Atlantic solo flight was impressive for anyone at the time, male or female, and she was an amazing individual in the industry.

However, America’s first female aviator is Rochester’s own Blanche Stuart (“Betty”) Scott. Born April 8, 1885, Scott loved spending time outdoors, bicycling and exploring. Despite her mother’s attempts to “transform her into a lady” in finishing school, Scott was, as she described herself, “a screwball” and “a cocky kid of 18,” so that didn’t work. Sean Dobbin of the Rochester D&C says Scott “[eschewed] her finishing school lessons in favor of the latest technologies.”

Scott was a firm believer in women’s self-sufficiency, and Scott said “women should wake up and take serious, intelligent, articulate interest in what makes the world tick.” Fittingly, Scott, an avid automobile enthusiast, started driving around Rochester at age 13. She supposedly “terrorize[d] the city streets to the point where the city council attempted to ban her from driving,” as the Federal Aviation Administration’s Hannah Chan reports. However, such a ban couldn’t stick because there were no age or gender driving restrictions.

In 1910, according to the FAA, Scott hopped in an Overland roadster nicknamed “Lady Overland” and made the 5,500-mile road trip across the US. Traveling from New York City to San Francisco in 68 or 69 days, depending on the source, Scott said she made the trip “purely for pleasure and educational value,” but also said that “women who have cars are too dependent on men … or their chauffeurs.” ough critics thought Scott would not be able to handle the mechanical issues of such a long journey, Scott was determined to prove them wrong.

In that land adventure, Scott became the first or second (again, depending on the source, but those who claim Scott as second name another Rochester-born woman, Alice Huyler Ramsey, as the first) woman to drive across the contiguous US. On the way, she saw her first airplane, originally “thinking these people flying were idiots, not realizing [she’d] be doing the same thing three weeks later” (FAA).

Scott made news with that road trip, and a member of the Glenn Curtiss Exhibition Company of Hammondsport, NY connected with her to learn to fly. Despite no formal training for aviators (who only received verbal instructions on the ground, evidently) and widespread discrimination against women at the time, in 1910 Scott mostly taught herself, and she never looked back.

BY SUZIE WELLS

With her first public flight with the company, the first professional appearance of a female US aviator in Fort Wayne, IN, Scott began (or continued) a career of firsts. She set long-distance flying records for women in 1911, and performed the lead role in e Aviator’s Bride, the first film about flying. In 1912, she became the first female test pilot in the US and performed in many exhibitions across the western US, becoming the US’ first female stunt pilot, gaining the nickname as the “Tomboy of the Air.”

In 1913, a Memorial Day crash took Scott out for a year, a er which she flew only a few times before retiring from active aviation in 1916. According to the FAA, she retired “because of the lack of opportunities for female engineers and mechanics [and because she] was bothered by what she perceived as the public’s disturbing interest in air crashes” instead of the sheer wonder of human aviation.

In retirement, Scott dove into screenwriting and radio, even writing and producing her own radio shows under the alias “Roberta.” Her passion for flying continued, though, and in 1948, she became the first female passenger to ride in a jet plane, a TF-8oC, and she received honors from the US Aeronautics Association in 1953.

In 1954, Scott began consulting with the US Air Force Museum, helping acquire $1M+ of early aviation artifacts for the museum. e Antique Airplane Association honored the 50th anniversary of her first flight in 1960, and the US Postal Service commemorated her achievements with a stamp in 1980.

In 2005, Blanche Stuart Scott was inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame, whose reports declare Scott “a pioneering aviator of indomitable spirit of adventure.” May we all remember this incredible Rochesterian whose strong will and determination allowed her to break barriers and follow her passion.

Here’s a Tip

* Soak your metal tools in Coca-Cola when they get gummed up. It does a great job of loosening the gunk, and a er a few hours in a Coke bath, you can almost just brush stuff right off. Makes you wonder about drinking it, but whatever works!

* To make a cottage cheese dip, blend it in your food processor until smooth and add your dip flavoring packet or season with flavors as you would sour cream.

* If you have a tablecloth that is stained, you might be able to salvage it into napkins or a table runner. You can edge it with a pretty and complementary fabric to spice things up a little.

December days were brief and chill,

The winds of March were wild and drear,

And, nearing and receding still, Spring never would, we thought, be here.

VENT BRIGHTER

How Two Strangers Brightened My Demeanor

Cigarette butts

It was a cold rainy day and at age 82, I didn’t want to drive on 490 in heavy traffic to Rochester General Hospital from my home to visit my wife of 59 years. I took an Uber ride. I struck up a conversation with the driver, Mike, for the 15 minute drive. He was a good conversationalist, stating he had retired in the past year. He was driving part-time to work for another year to save more money for he and his wife’s dream vacation to Aruba. I told him how happy I was for him. Then at 8PM visiting curfew hour came and I got another Uber. This time it was a woman in her late 30’s. In our talk she stated that she had 3 children, ages 8,11 and 14 but she was divorced. Unbelievably she worked a full-time job in the day and part-time at Uber three nights a week for 4 hours each night. When she got me to my home I told her to just wait in the driveway. I gave her a bottled water and an apple. Life is not easy.

Featured Media Staff to the Rescue

I often see people standing outside smoking a cigarette and then they either just throw it on the ground or throw it down in the drains. I often wonder if they think by throwing it in the drain they’re doing us a favor. But they’re not. There’s toxic chemicals, Arsenic and Lead that will be released into the environment and contaminate our water. I don’t know about you, but I like drinking clean water and breathing clean air. You would think everybody would want to drink clean water.

Cell Phones

I want to recognize & commend the extraordinary efforts of your publication’s Featured Media staff, specifically Jenna for going the extra mile in assisting me with the printing and on-time delivery of photo Christmas cards. Although I thought I was allowing enough time to upload & submit my choice photo for printing of the cards, my inadequacies in properly doing so (I am somewhat tech-challenged) presented difficulties to the graphic design staff. But with Jenna’s patience & perseverance she was able to not only work her magic in getting the cards printed successfully, she also apologized (though not at all her fault) for the delay, and ended up expediting the shipment for delivery. Kudos.

(By the way, why have the former Raves/Rants columns been replaced by the far-less-catchy terms “Brighter/Vent”?)

If you’re going to stand and talk on your cell phone, please don’t stand next to the crosswalks or have a social discussion there either. If you’re going to be on your phone, at least move further away instead of remaining there.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

High Troponin Levels Follow After Bout of Food Poisoning

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 77-year-old male who apparently suffered a case of food poisoning. I say apparently because no cause was ever discovered for the uncontrollable vomiting and diarrhea that lasted for a whole day and recurred briefly the following morning. A trip to the emergency room involved many tests, but nothing turned up except a troponin level well over 0.04 ng/mL, which prompted an angiogram that didn’t reveal any problems with my heart. What else might have caused my high troponin level? -- Anon.

ANSWER: A troponin level is a standard blood test usually used to evaluate patients for heart attacks. However, newer, highly sensitive assays have proven that tiny levels of troponin may be detected in nearly everybody.

A level above 0.04 ng/mL is often used as the cutoff for the “normal” range, but depending on the assay and population studied, a few healthy people may have levels above this. People with heart attacks may have troponin levels in the hundreds or thousands. The higher the troponin level, the more muscle damage there is. The fact that your coronary arteries don’t show any blockages is very good news. Other types of heart damage may also cause a high troponin level, including inflammation of the heart (myocarditis) and heart failure. Also, critical illnesses can cause high troponin levels (at much higher levels than you may have had) in people who don’t have heart blockages. (A median of 0.57 ng/ mL was found in people with septic shock.)

a call to learn more. We would be happy to help!

I found a long list of reported causes behind elevated troponin levels, but gastroenteritis was not on the list. I suspect your body was working so hard to fight off the infection without enough fluid that your heart needed more oxygen-carrying blood than it got, leading to tiny amounts of injury to the heart muscle despite normal heart arteries. You can lose a lot of fluid with vomiting and diarrhea, and people at age 77 don’t have as much reserve as they did when they were younger.

FACTORS TO CONSIDER BEFORE INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE

Condition of the property: Product shortages were another trend to emerge during the pandemic, and disruptions to the supply chain will not necessarily go away anytime soon. In addition, the cost of various products associated with home improvements, including lumber, skyrocketed during the pandemic. The National Association of Home Builders noted that while lumber prices declined in 2021, the price of lumber packages quoted to builders remained high.That means real estate investors who invest in properties that will need work could be forced to pay a lot to fix these properties. And ongoing supply chain issues could extend the time it takes to renovate a property. Investors must be able to bear these costs and lag times to make the most off their real estate investments.

It is the first mild day of March: Each minute sweeter than before... There is a blessing in the air, Which seems a sense of joy to yield To the bare trees, and mountains bare, And grass in the green field... We from to-day, my Friend, will date The opening of the year.

Love, now an universal birth, From heart to heart is stealing, From earth to man, from man to earth:

—It is the hour of feeling.

~William Wordsworth (1770–1850), “To My Sister”
