HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF WHEN TRAVELING ALONE

Learn key phrases. Many foreign countries have a bevy of English speakers, but it’s always wise to learn important phrases in the native tongue so that you can communicate. These should include “I need help.” “Do you speak English?” “Where is the telephone?” and even “I need the American/Canadian Embassy or Consulate.”

HEALTH BENEFITS OF HONEY

Substitute for refined sugar: Refined sugar offers little to no nutritional value and is full of empty calories. Heathline says that honey has bioactive plant compounds and antioxidants as well as trace amounts of vitamins and minerals. The antioxidants in honey, which include phenols and flavonoids, may help prevent cardiovascular disease, stroke and some types of cancer.

Looking at the Causes Behind Mobility Issues

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am 79 and can move around without any problem. I walk five days a week, and my weight is normal. However, it seems to me that many people -- some younger than I am -- have mobility problems. I wonder what causes this problem. Is it lack of exercise, genes, weight, etc.? -- E.G.

ANSWER: Be very grateful that you can move around without a problem, as most people in their late 70s do have mobility issues. The most common reason is osteoarthritis, but there are many causes, such as neurological diseases, cardiovascular issues and other types of arthritis. While it is true that not exercising can lead to poor mobility, most of the time, it isn’t a person’s fault that they have difficulty with mobility. Arthritis can happen to a person of any weight and at any level of exercise.

Exercise helps the vast majority of people improve their mobility, but there are exceptions. Many people with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome are intolerant of exercise, and overdoing it can lead their condition to worsen. This syndrome has also been known as systemic exertion intolerance disease. Well-meaning physicians, friends and family might have recommended exercise to a patient, which could have caused them to have a flare-up.

Although being very overweight increases the risk of arthritis, having a normal weight doesn’t prevent its development. Genetic influences are very complicated, but they also have a role in the development of osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis can also come about as a result of significant trauma to a joint. ***

CLAR’S COLLISION

4778 Honeoye Business Park, Honeoye • 585-229-2008

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

How to Greet Other Dogs on the Street

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I adopted a sweet but somewhat rambunctious little mutt, “Karla,” who is about 13 months old. e problem is that she wants to jump and bark at other dogs when we’re out for a walk. How can I calm her down? -- Jen in Duluth, Georgia

DEAR JEN: Reactivity is natural behavior for a puppy that loves to play with other dogs, but of course, it’s not desirable behavior. Jumping and barking can trigger an aggressive response from some dogs, or stress out other dogs. It can scare humans.

Fortunately, it’s a behavior that you can moderate with a specific, daily training regime that will teach Karla to stay calm on the leash.

First, gather your tools: A sturdy leash that is about 5 feet long (no retractable leashes allowed), a harness and a pocketful of Karla’s favorite treats, cut into tiny pieces. I recommend the harness over a collar because it allows you to strongly control Karla if she starts jumping, without risking an injury to her throat.

Next, teach and reinforce three crucial commands: sit, stay and heel. From the moment you put on Karla’s harness and leash, to when you take them off at the end of the walk, she needs to follow your commands. Karla should sit calmly while you attach and remove the leash. During the walk, she should remain next to you, with a little slack in the leash. If she starts to tug ahead, stop, command her to sit and, once she sits, start off again, giving the command “heel.”

STRANGE BUT TRUE

By Lucie Winborne

Level: Intermediate

Keep the training positive, and remember that it will take time and consistency. As she learns what you expect from her, Karla will become a great walking companion.

CANADICE

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “The beautiful thing about life is that we will never reach an age where there is nothing left to learn, see or be; it’s magical, really.” -- Dulce Ruby

MOMENTS IN TIME

On May 2, 1972, after nearly five decades as director of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover dies. By 1969 the media, the public and Congress had grown suspicious that the FBI might be abusing its authority. Congress passed laws requiring Senate confirmation of future FBI directors and limiting their tenure to 10 years. (The History Channel)

DID YOU KNOW?

SOUTH BRISTOL Dansville Ecumenical Community Food Pantry

Provides food for those in need in the Dansville area.

Parents who want to encourage their children to volunteer may find their efforts at doing so are more convincing if they volunteer themselves. A 2013 study published in the Journal of Adolescence examined the effects that parents who volunteer and talk about volunteering have on children. Researchers found that the children of volunteers were 27 percent more likely to volunteer than children whose parents did not volunteer. In addition, adolescents were 47 percent more likely to volunteer when their parents volunteered and talked about volunteering with their children.

* In the 18th century, Napoleon Bonaparte and Benjamin Franklin were both defeated at chess by a machine called the Mechanical Turk -- or at least they thought they were. It was later revealed to be quite the elaborate hoax, with a highly skilled chess master hiding inside the “machine” and moving the pieces against the opponent.

Here’s a Tip

* It’s tough to eat home-cooked meals as a single eater. Most recipes are geared for multiple portions, and you probably don’t want to eat the same thing for five days straight. Try this: Get together with some friends and have a potluck. Each guest brings an entree and at least two side dishes, in extra-large portions, and his or her own le overs containers. Split the food up amongst the guests, packaged as meals. Everyone can cook once and eat for a week.

* Did you have too much summer fun last year? Be ready to soothe that sunkissed skin this year with frozen aloe vera. Use an ice-cube tray to freeze aloe vera gel, and let the soothing begin!

Do your homework. Getting the best price typically require shopping around and not settling on the first bid.Experts recommend getting at least three estimates on the same job - and be sure to let each contractor know that you are soliciting multiple bids. This alone may entice a specific contractor to give you his or her best offer up front. Avoid simply choosing the lowest bid. Look at quality of work, reputation and reviews. If you like a costly contractor more than another, see if that contractor is willing to match a lower bid to win the job.

Does Your Family Have a Fire Escape Plan? (Family Features) When a home fire occurs, you have very little time to get out. A working smoke alarm doubles your chances of survival, yet more than twenty percent of American homes are without them. Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs teamed up to address this problem by providing vital fire safety information to families. Make a Plan Installing smoke alarms on every level of the home and developing a plan of escape can give your family precious minutes to get out and get to safety. Draw a floor plan of your home and sketch exit routes out of every room. Make sure you have a fire escape ladder long enough to reach the ground from upstairs rooms. Assign an outside meeting place, so you can quickly locate each other

RESTORE RUSTY TOOLS

Many people may be tempted to discard rusty tools that have gone unused and sat in a garage or shed for a significant period of time. But tools encrusted with rust do not need to be relegated to the trash bin, nor do gardeners have to toil for hours scraping and sanding off the rust. There’s a much easier way to restore rusty tools that relies on a common household ingredient: vinegar. Pour vinegar into a deep enough vessel to submerge the metal part ofthetool.Soakthetoolovernight. The next day, use a scouring pad to rub off the rust. If the tool is too big to fit into a can or bucket, simply wrap it with a vinegarsoaked rag and cover the whole tool with a tightly secured plastic bag. Follow the same procedure the next day. After all the rust is gone, rinse the tool in cool water and dry thoroughly. Then return it to regular usage.

PROTECTING YOUR VISION FROM DIABETES (NAPSI)—Diabetes

kills more Americans each year than AIDS and breast cancer combined— and can cause serious problems throughout the body. According to the National Eye Institute, eye health, for example, can become critically compromised.

Around 30.3 million Americans, or 9.4 percent of the population, are living with diabetes, with about 1.5 million more being diagnosed every year. The longer someone has diabetes, the greater his or her chances are of developing diabetic retinopathy, or damage to the blood vessels in the retina. According to the National Eye Institute, between 40 and 45 percent of people diagnosed with diabetes have some degree of diabetic retinopathy. While being overweight and leading a sedentary lifestyle are certainly linked to diabetes, social and environmental factors such aspoverty,stress,andlackofsafe housing and access to a healthy diet can also compromise your healthandultimatelycontributeto thedevelopmentoftype2diabetes.

According to America’s Health Insurance Plans, addressing these social determinants of health has become a top priority for Medicaid programs.

“We encourage our members with diabetes to have regular eye exams to rule out complications,” saidDr.AndreaGelzer,seniorvice president of medical affairs at AmeriHealth Caritas, a national leader in Medicaid managed care andotherhealthcaresolutionsfor those most in need. “We educate our members so they understand that living a healthy lifestyle, controlling their blood sugar and having regular eye exams can help save their vision.”

Simple steps can help mitigate the effects of diabetes and may potentially delay complications from diabetic eye disease, including controlling your blood sugar and blood pressure, monitoring your cholesterol, seeing your doctor regularly, and having a dilated eye exam at least once per year—or more if recommended by your eye care professional.

AmeriHealth Caritas is part of the Independence Health Group in partnership with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and one of the nation’s leaders in health care solutions for those most in need.

Raisins are produced by the Ancient Egyptians.

Welcome to Selma

Oats were cultivated thousands of years ago and were actually used as fodder for animals. Oats were rarely consumed in North America but in parts of northern Europe and Scotland they were used in porridge.

1896

OATMEAL RAISIN

Before the oatmeal cookie came into existence, there was oatcake. Since Roman times this was popular in Scotland and it was relied on for an energy boost. Apparently, during wartime, soldiers would carry oatcakes with them as a quick snack.

The First Oatmeal Cookie | Fannie Merritt Farmer creates the first-ever oatmeal cookie in the U.S.

Over half of the world’s raisins come from California. Although Napa is known worldwide for its wine-producing grapes, the Golden State’s raisin capital is actually the city of Selma— just southeast of Fresno. This area produces over 350,000 tons of raisins annually.

Jennifer Maloney: A Poet of Authenticity and Resilience

BY SUZIE WELLS

In the tapestry of the Rochester poetry scene, Jennifer Maloney is a vibrant thread, weaving together personal narratives with profound reflections on life, love, and human resilience. From her humble beginnings in grammar school to her accolades as a published author, Maloney’s journey as a poet is a testament to the power of authenticity and creative expression.

Maloney recalls childhood days spent cra ing short stories that gradually evolved into the lyrical beauty of poetry. Embracing the fluidity of free verse, she found her artistic voice, choosing to express herself in a style unbound by traditional structures.

For Maloney, inspiration is a continual process, nurtured by a dedicated community of fellow poets and the timeless verses of literary icons. rough regular classes and shared readings, she finds solace in the transformative power of poetry. She says one of her biggest inspirations is the Greek poet Yannis Ritsos, whose “work opens me up and allows my imagination to fly.”

Describing her writing habits as a delightful concoction of spontaneity and intentionality, Maloney reveals her creative process as a fusion of diverse influences. From everyday encounters to profound introspection, she draws inspiration from the myriad facets of life, embracing each moment as a potential source of poetic revelation. She says, “For me, writing is o en a kind of happy accident—a prompt here, a news article there, a mis-heard quote that intrigues me. Dump ‘em in a bowl and stir!”

Maloney recalls a poet telling her that “writers generally write about the same few things over and over through their lives, as though perhaps trying to solve a problem.” She says her most successful work is very personal. She writes about love, sex, addiction, and the enduring legacy of personal trauma. rough raw, unfiltered verses, she confronts the shadows of her past with unwavering honesty, inviting readers into the depths of her emotional landscape.

Beyond the confines of solitary creation, Maloney finds a warm, supportive community within Just Poets, Inc. in Rochester. eir Second Wednesday gatherings at Before Your Quiet Eyes Bookstore in Rochester serve as a sanctuary for poets to share their cra , fostering an environment of warmth and encouragement.

As a published author of Evidence of Fire: Poems & Stories, a hybrid chapbook, and Don’t Let God Know You are Singing: Poems and Stories, a full-length hybrid collection, Maloney stands as a testament to the transformative power of artistic expression. Her work resonates

with readers, offering a poignant reflection on the human experience and the resilience of the human spirit.

For Maloney, poetry transcends the realm of mere artistic expression; it is a lifeline, a source of solace and self-discovery in a world fraught with uncertainty. In advocating for greater support and recognition for the arts, she underscores the vital role of creative expression in fostering mental well-being and societal cohesion.

To aspiring writers, Maloney offers a simple yet profound piece of advice: “Go deep and be real,” explaining that when she is her most authentic self in her writing, she most successfully resonates with audiences.

As she continues to chart her path as a poet, Jennifer Maloney remains a beacon of authenticity and resilience in an ever-changing literary landscape, a poet whose words linger long a er the final line has been read. rough her words, she invites readers to embark on a journey of self-discovery and reflection, reminding us of the enduring power of poetry to illuminate the human experience.

Maloney was a featured reader at the Webster Arboretum Poetry Trail Eclipse Poetry reading in April and has been a featured reader at events around Rochester. She reads at Books, Etc. in Macedon on April 28th. Find her on Facebook at Jennifer Maloney Author. Got it Bad (originally published in PoetryBay)

I got a fist-sized heart made for backseat brawls, I got a broken-nosed love—a boxer, a gangster, gunning in the streets—I got a glass-jaw Johnny, he hurts me, he holds me, oh hold me, baby, you better hold me back—I’ve been waiting for this fight all night, the purple bruise of your mouth, its bite, the backhand smudge that tries to wipe me from your lips. I got a cauliflower ear, it hears the drumbeat of this love, the tattoo of it marching in the street, its stomping feet, its jackboots hammer the concrete outside your house, wakes the neighborhood at five am, got all the babies cryin’—their mothers throw cold water out the windows, their fathers threaten violence—I got a fist-sized heart, it swings, it connects. I got a knuckle sandwich for the family upstairs. A safecracking love, a love that blows up in your face, sweating dynamite, unstable, it could go off at any second, I got an ungentle love! A love that jimmies open windows, steals cars and joyrides, moons the passersby, a love that’s sticking out its tongue—bully love, broken love, loud love, bad love, ten pounds of love squirting out of a five-pound bag, messy love. Heavyweight love, prizefighting love, KO-ing all comers with my fist-sized heart.

STOCK UP ON HEALTHFUL FOOD

(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.

You can find them at www.TheHealthfoodStore.com and locate retailers at www.VeggiesMadeGreat.com.

MOTHER’S DAY CELEBRATION IDEAS

The Crafter

Mothers who are avid crafters may enjoy a craft-themed Mother’s Day. A family crafting project can make for a fun afternoon and produce mementos that Mom will cherish for years to come. Dads and kids can plan the project in advance without Mom’s knowledge, arranging all of the materials ahead of time and setting up the crafting station the night before or while Mom is relaxing on Mother’s Day morning. Kids can even get a head start on the day by making their own craft for Mom and giving it to her as a Mother’s Day present. Dads can keep the craft theme going at dinner and get a laugh out of Mom by pouring her a craft beer when dinner is served.

There are good people out there!

VENT BRIGHTER

Pharmacy disappointment

On Good Friday, I went out for a fish fry at a local well-known restaurant and had a wonderful meal. When the server asked me if I needed anything else, I said just the check. She said it’s been taken care of, along with the tip. I have no other way to say thank you to whomever did that, so thank you! I’m in my 80s and that’s never happened before, so I say there are good people out there!

Mustangs contribution to the Pop Up Pantry

I would like to thank Mrs. Auble and her students in the Entrepreneurship Class for collecting and giving food to the Pop Up Pantry in Dansville on April 15th. I was one of the fortunate ones to receive your bag of goods. It not only helped out my household but three other households that were in need of food. So, thank you again! An older Dansville citizen.

The large grocery store pharmacy I use in [local town] is always so backed up with customers. There is often a very long line inside at the counter as well as at the drive-thru window. I never use the drive-thru because of how busy it is, but the other day I decided to utilize it because there was only one car at the window. I was the first car waiting behind the car being serviced at the window. That car took 19, yes 19, minutes at the window! I did not have the option to leave because during the first few minutes of waiting, several cars (at least 7 or 8) took their place in line behind me. So I was stuck there. If there is an issue with an order that is taking that long, why can’t pharmacists ask the car/customer to pull around or come inside so that the other customers in line are not stuck for that long? I only decided to use the drive-thru that day because I was tired of waiting in line at the counter, and thought with just one car ahead of me it would be quicker. What a mistake.

Animals in grocery stores and carts

I understand that many people love their pets like family. Pets, however, do NOT belong in stores where groceries are sold. Regulations are posted at the entrances of all of the groceries in our area stating that service dogs ONLY are welcome. Pets, therapy and emotional support animals are NOT service dogs!

The potential risk of contamination from fur, dander, or pathogens is a valid concern, especially concerning food items. These animals especially should be prohibited from being placed in carts. Pets may carry parasites and germs, as well as leave fur, dander andallergens, and a cart that held a pet is unsanitary! It concerns me that the management and workers do not enforce these rules.

MONUMENTAL MEMORIES

Full range of cemetery memorials & services. Many granite stones, colors, shapes & engraving options on display. Friendly, caring & here to help!

Figures from the U.S. Census Bureau indicates that the average worker spent 26 minutes traveling to work, the most recent year for which the USCB has data. That marksanearly20percentincrease in average commute time since 1980. Things aren’t much better in Canada, where the National Household Survey found that the average commuter spends just over 25 minutes traveling to work each day. People who commute via public transportation can use the time they spend going to and from the office to answer emails, review schedules or even work on projects. Commuters who drive themselves to work can consider switching to public transportation or, if possible, move closer to their offices so they spend less time sitting in their vehicles, where they have no choice but to be unproductive.

INFLUENTIAL JAZZ MUSICIANS

Bessie Smith (1894-1937): While there are female instrumentalists in the genre of jazz, in the early days many, such as Bessie Smith, were vocalists. Born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Smith would come to be known as “Empress of the Blues” thanks to her powerful voice. By the 1920s, Smith was among the highest paid black performers. Tragically, Smith’s life was cut short when she died from injuries sustained in a car crash on her way to a show in Memphis in 1937.
