Ways to Train Your Brain

ere are several “brain support” online programs out there, but many cost more than we’d like to pay.

Lumosity (lumosity.com) comes in seven languages and has games that promote memory, attention, exibility, problem-solving and more. A er you sign up, you’ll get three free games per day, and the Brain Performance Index monitors your progress. ere is a subscription plan, of course, if you want access to more areas of the site, and you can pay by the month or the year. Test the free version rst to see if you like it.

BrainHQ (brainhq.com) is another cognitive training program that you can access online. eir exercises explore brain speed, memory, attention and more. And you can design your own program. eir goals are to help you think faster, focus better and remember more. You can try it out by subscribing to their email newsletters, which have free daily exercises to sample.

As for me, I’ve found books that don’t cost much and are good at putting my brain through its paces on a daily basis. e New York Times series of puzzle books begins with the Monday editions, which are the easiest of the week. ( e crossword puzzles get increasingly di cult as the week progresses.) I found the whole series of spiral-bound puzzle books (50 to a book) on Amazon.

en there are the online jigsaw puzzles at eJigsawPuzzles.com. e puzzles (a new one every day) can be set in any number of ways, including the number of pieces in a puzzle. I’ve found that the 100-pieces level is plenty challenging when viewed on a computer monitor.

And then there is online chess, for those of us who used to play back in the day but would be embarrassed to lose to a small child now without serious brushing up of our skills. Try this for free at www.chess.com and play against their computer.

The Type Of Lodging Accommodation

Hotel: Hotels cater to people who will be staying a few nights. They often feature spacious lobbies and some amenities, such as swimming pools or exercise rooms. Some hotels have restaurants attached to them. Hotels are among the most popular accommodations. According to the travel resource Dauntless Jaunter, hotels are categorized according to a “star” rating system.

· 1-star: This is a bare essentials hotel that offers just the basics with no extra bells and whistles.

· 2-star: A two-star hotel is usually reasonably priced and has minimal services and amenities and a neutral decor.

· 3-star: This hotel is meant to offer an above-average stay as far as options and amenities. Modern conveniences can be expected at three-star properties.

· 4-and 5-star: These hotels offer deluxe service and guests can expect luxury amenities and a wide range of offerings at these properties. However, they also can expect to pay more for accommodations.

Hearty stews and belly-warming soups are coming out frost is sparkling, and winter jackets are coming out of hiding. Families are craving slow-cooked, savory meals that yield health benefits and leftovers. Delicious, savory winter-recipe ingredients that will surely satisfy are white beans and Oso Sweet Onions, an onion grown at the foot of the Andes Mountains. Onions are not only believed to be a cancer preventative, their low-salt, low-fat health benefits are the proactive equivalent to superhero powers. Onions have 25 compounds that lower blood pressure and cholesterol, prevent thrombosis, inhibit strokes and battle heart disease,says the American Heart Association. Plus, the antioxidants and flavonoids found in onions don’t lose their potency once cooked. This makes them ideal for slow-cooked recipes. They add a punch of flavor and a whopping serving size, making them an affordable luxury during the chilly winter months.

"Quality Service at Reasonable Rates"

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* To store asparagus, trim the ends and wrap them in a few paper towels that you have dampened. Keep it in the fridge for two days max. This will keep it very fresh and tasty.

* “To stretch your food dollar -- especially now that the weather is colder, and soups and stews are daily fare -- substitute peas, beans and lentils for meats whenever possible. Not only will this semivegetarian diet keep your food dollars down, it will make you healthier and it’s a more ecofriendly diet.” -- K.F. in Connecticut

* If you add dried fruit or raisins to your batter for cakes or muffins, roll them or shake them in flour first. This will prevent them from sinking down to the bottom of the pan.

* Bathroom fan reminder: When you leave your bathroom fan running excessively, you are pumping heat out of your house. Set a timer for 10 minutes maximum, and then turn it off.

* “Old pantyhose can be washed and cut up to use as stuffing for a toy. The same is true for other light materials. This can be a good way to get one more use out of something rather than putting it in the trash bin.” -- P.L. in Pennsylvania

* If your bathtub has a grainy or rough texture, try soaking the bath in vinegar, either by adding a large bottle to some water and plugging it up, or by laying down a towel and soaking it in vinegar. Scrub and remove.

Care For Tools Properly

Homeowners often choose to save money and learn valuable skills by doing their own home improvement projects. These minor or major renovations are made much more successful by having the right tools for the job. Investing in good tools can be smart, but those tools are only effective if they are accessible and in good repair. Homeowners who emphasize taking care of their tools can make DIY projects that much easier and more rewarding.

Neil Andrew Baverstock

January 27, 2023

Wayland – Slaithwaite, West Yorkshire, UK: Neil Andrew Baverstock, 53 years of age, passed away Friday afternoon, January 27, 2023 at Highland Hospital after a long illness.

Neil was born October 31, 1969, the son of Anthony and Margaret (Bell) Baverstock. Neil and Laurie Morsch were married October 13, 2005 in Hudders eld, West Yorkshire, UK.

Neil’s education was proli c and his lifelong love of learning endless. He attended the prestigious Mill eld School in Somerset, England from the ages of 16-18 on an academic and sports scholarship for football (soccer) and cricket. He then attended Phillips Academy, Andover, MA on scholarship from Harvard University. In 1988 he attended the University of Leeds to study Astro Physics. Neil was scouted and o ered a full scholarship to attend the University of Hartford, CT where he received a Master’s Degree in Economics from the Barney School of Business and Public Administration. He then brie y undertook law studies in Los Angeles. His employment career was centered around data analytics in the international arena and was cut short due to his ongoing health problems.

Neil’s love of sports and his accomplishments were astounding as well. He opened the batting for Yorkshire boys at under 15 (the equivalent of being selected as quarterback for the Bu alo Bills). While at Mill eld School he won the All England Football (soccer) National Schools Championship and also played in their First Eleven Cricket Team. He captained Hudders eld Town School Boys both as a goalkeeper and center forward. He played soccer (football) at the University of Hartford, winning the 1991 and 1992 North Atlantic Conference Championship and played in the Sweet 16 round of the 1991 NCAA Men’s College SoccerTournament.He loved his hometown Football Club,Hudders eld Town – one of only 4 teams to have won the English Premiership of Old Division I, 3 years running. e other being Liverpool, Manchester

United and Arsenal. Another accomplishment for Neil was running in the 2010 London Marathon.

Neil’s other hobbies included reading and writing. He authored a book titled “Back in the Game” – the chronicles of one lapsed football fan’s (soccer) return to life and the “Game”in England after a decade of living in the land of soccer. He also wrote many poems, ction and non- ction pieces. He loved coaching youth soccer in both Wayland and Naples, passing on his lifelong love of soccer (football) to others.He would shovel his backyard and put ood lights up so his son could practice year-round! Golf was also favorite of his, both in playing and then watching as his ill health progressed.

Neil’s zest for learning and sports made him competitive. He did not like games of chance because of the lack of skill and knowledge needed. A defeat at Jeopardy was unheard of against Neil nor was a goal scored against him a common feat!

Neil was predeceased by his father and mother-in-law, Carl and Lee Morsch. He is survived by wife, Laurie Baverstock of Wayland; his son, George of Wayland; his parents, Anthony Alderson Baverstock and Margaret Patricia Baverstock of Slaithwaite, West Yorkshire; his brother, Paul Baverstock (Justin Kitson) of Harrogate, North Yorkshire and his sister,Debra Baverstock of Slaithwaite,West Yorkshire; his nieces,Cecilia and Olivia Baverstock; along with brothers and sisters-in-law; and other nieces and nephews within his extended family here in the United States. Neil’s family and friends are invited to his funeral service at 11am Saturday at St. George-Forsythe Funeral Home, 109 West Naples St., Wayland. Immediately following the funeral service Neil’s celebration will continue with food and fellowship at Palmer’s Last Stop on Main St., Wayland. Contributions in memory of Neil A. Baverstock may be made to Vincent House, 310 Second Ave., Wayland, NY 14572.

Neil’s funeral service will be livestreamed and the link will be available Friday evening.

Create An Enduring Memorial For A Loved One

Establish an online memorial website. If you want to share stories, photos and anecdotes about your loved one with the world, a memorial website is a great way to do so. Create the site and share your own feelings before soliciting others to share their thoughts and anecdotes as well.

Passed peacefully at home at the age of 96. DeMerle was predeceased by his parents, Harry Sr. and Mabel (Shaver) of Groveland; brothers, Donald and Harry Jr; loving wife, Harriet Finch Johnson and loving long-time companion,

He is survived by his daughters, Cheryl Wood (William) of Tennessee, Debbra Seeley (James Ward) of Livonia and Donna Gould of Dansville; sister, Helen Plumley of Camden, NY; sister-in-law, C Jayne Kelly of Dansville; 10 grandchildren, 11 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great-grandsons; several nieces and nephews and special

Deke was born and raised in Groveland, NY. He was a proud WWII Army veteran, serving in Italy for two years, in 1945 and 1946, with the US Army 2nd Corp. He was a longtime member of the Daniel Goho American Legion Post #86, with more than seventy continuous years of membership. He was also a member of the local VFW. It was his honor to serve his country and his service was acknowledged when he was a guest of Rochester Honor Flight #36 to Washington, DC.

Deke worked as a self-employed mechanic who, with his friend and business partner Paul MacDonald, owned and operated the Valley Auto Parts until both retired in 1982. He continued to work several more years at the Expressway Auto Auction in Dansville. Since retirement, Deke volunteered once a week at the Glenn H Curtiss museum in Hammondsport, NY.

Deke was an avid reader. He enjoyed playing golf and maintaining his homestead. If grass was growing, he was mowing! Deke mostly enjoyed spending time with his family and friends, sharing his quick wit and stories of times past. He was a kind, caring and generous person who will be deeply missed for his laughter, wisdom and loving ways.

Per his wishes there will be no calling hours. Service and internment will be private and at the convenience of the family. In lieu of owers, the family requests donations be made to Honor Flight Rochester, PO Box 23581, Rochester, NY 14692.
