HOW TO OVERCOME WORKOUT FATIGUE
Eat before and after a workout. Early risers who like to exercise first thing in the morning might develop muscle fatigue if they workout on empty stomachs. The HSS recommends eating a light meal or snack roughly two hours before exercising, and then eating again within one hour of finishing a workout. Doing so provides some energy during a workout and helps muscles broken down during exercise refuel and repair.
AVOID INJURIES WHEN WORKING OUT
Adesiretoliveahealthy,activelife compels many people to include exercise in their daily routines. Numerous studies have shown that regular workouts that include a combination of strength training and cardiovascular exercise can make bodies less susceptible to injury while reducing a person’s risk for conditions such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes. Exercising is most effective when it’s part of a daily routine, but that routine can be derailed if men and women are not taking

Always practice summer sun safety
When the weather is warm, many people take time to relax at the beach or poolside. While such relaxation can provide a welcome break from busy schedules, it’s important that men, women and children prioritize protecting their skin when spending time in the sun
According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, basal cell carcinoma, or BCC, is the most common form of skin cancer. The American Cancer Society notes that each year there are more new cases of skin cancer in the United States than the combined incidences of cancers of the breast, prostate, lung and colon. Despite that prevalence, many people still engage in risky behaviors in the name of outdoor enjoyment. Being safe in the sun won’t take anything away from enjoyable outdoor activities, but exercising such caution will help summer revelers reduce their risk for skin cancer and other conditions.

Medicines Usually Maintain Efficacy Past Their Expiration Dates
DEAR DR. ROACH: I recently tested positive for COVID using an expired home test, and I selfisolated for five days. I also realized every Tylenol, antihistamine, DayQuil, NyQuil and allergy pill that I had was past its expiration date. Some were only expired by a few months, but most were expired by two to four years. I guess I don’t get sick often. My question is: Before I dispose of these, how effective are they, and are any of them dangerous to use? --
K.L.
ANSWER: Drug manufacturers are required to make expiration dates, and they guarantee that the drugs are what they say they are and are effective until a certain date (at least if they are properly stored in a cool and dark area). This does not necessarily mean that they become ineffective or dangerous after expiring, and many drugs have been proven to maintain efficacy for years or decades after the printed expiration date.
A military study found that 90% of drugs are still effective 15 years after expiration. It is rare for a drug to become dangerous; however, the tetracycline class of antibiotics is one where toxicity has been found. In general, if a drug is a few months to a year past its expiration date, it is probably OK. (Liquid drugs, nitroglycerin and insulin are notable exceptions.) But at some point, you have to ask yourself whether it is worth the small risk of the medicine being less effective, especially for inexpensive over-the-counter (OTC) drugs.
Also, COVID test kits may have an extended expiration date. The Food and Drug Administration maintains a list at tinyurl.com/COVIDTestKitExpire. ***

PRACTICAL GIFTS FOR RECENT GRADUATES
Travel tickets: Treat graduates to a trip away from home. Travelers often gain new perspectives and inspiration when visiting a city, state or country for the first time. Travel is good for future entrepreneurs and may help a person stand out in a long list of job applicants. According to Forbes.com, travel can help cultivate relationships outside of one’s existing network and provide ideas from others outside of graduates’ existing personal and professional circles.

Here’s A Tip
• Berries: Strawberries and blueberries are rich in antioxidant compounds called anthocyanins. Research has linked anthocyanins to a reduction in blood pressure in people with hypertension. In more good news,
• Place your unwashed strawberries on top in a single layer, then cover with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, ideally within seven days. If you notice one of the strawberries going bad or turning moldy, immediately remove it and discard.

What are the best kind of mulch to use?
When it comes to choosing the best kind of mulch for your garden, there are several factors to consider. Mulch plays a crucial role in conserving moisture, suppressing weeds, and improving soil health. Here are some popular types of mulch and their benefits:
1. Organic Mulch: Organic mulches, such as wood chips, straw, leaves, and bark, are widely used for their numerous benefits. They break down over time, adding organic matter to the soil and improving its fertility. Organic mulches also help regulate soil temperature, prevent erosion, and promote beneficial microbial activity. Wood chips are particularly effective in suppressing weeds, retaining moisture, and creating a natural aesthetic.
2. Compost: Compost can be used as a mulch or incorporated into the soil. It enriches the soil with nutrients, improves its structure, and enhances moisture retention. Compost mulch also acts as a natural weed suppressant and provides a slow-release source of nutrients to plants. It is advisable to apply compost mulch in a layer of about 1-2 inches to avoid smothering plant roots.
3. Straw: Straw mulch is an affordable option that is commonly used in vegetable gardens. It helps retain moisture in the soil, reduces weed growth, and protects plants from soil-borne diseases. Straw also breaks down slowly, contributing to soil fertility over time. However, it is essential to source straw from pesticide-free sources to avoid introducing harmful chemicals to your garden.
4. Gravel or Stone: Gravel or stone mulch is a low-maintenance option that works well in arid climates or areas prone to erosion. It allows water to penetrate the soil while preventing weed growth. Gravel mulch also reflects sunlight, keeping the soil cooler during hot summer months. However, it may not be suitable for all types of plants, particularly those that prefer more organic and moisture-retentive conditions.
5. Rubber Mulch: Rubber mulch is a recycled product made from shredded rubber tires. It is long-lasting, doesn’t break down, and provides excellent weed suppression. Rubber mulch also helps retain moisture and insulate the soil. However, it is important to note that rubber mulch may not be suitable for edible gardens due to potential leaching of chemicals.
Ultimately, the best kind of mulch for your garden depends on your specific needs, preferences, and the plants you are growing. It’s recommended to choose mulches that are readily available, sustainable, and compatible with your gardening practices. Experimenting with different types of mulch can help you determine what works best for your garden’s health and aesthetics. Personally, when in doubt go with a double ground hardwood mulch that is not dyed with a color. This will always be a great sustainable choice.

A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken. ~James Dent
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.

End of an Era: Honoring Brad Carlson’s Leadership in Honeoye Falls BSA Troop 410
BY KRYSTAL VUKOSIC
Beloved Scoutmaster Brad Carlson, guiding force behind Troop 410 in Honeoye Falls, stepped down this month, marking the end of an era. Since Troop 410’s inception on February 1, 2019, Brad has poured his heart and soul into nurturing young female scouts.
Brad’s unwavering dedication and passion for scouting has been obvious to all. Brad embodies the Scout Oath and Law, serving as a beaconofintegrity,leadershipandservicetoothers.Hiscommitment to instilling these values in our Scouts, our children, has le an indelible mark on each and every one of us.
Brad also brought his love for bird watching to Troop 410, sharing his knowledge and enthusiasm during outdoor adventures and weekly meetings whenever the opportunity arose. His bird watching outings deepened our appreciation for nature and fostered a sense of curiosity and wonder in us all.
In late 2018, my husband mentioned to our daughter that Mr. Carlson had asked if she would be interested in Scouts. Once Katelynn was committed, Brad persuaded me to join as a leader. Despite my hesitations about nature, I agreed. Brad had already spent countless hours preparing to start the Troop. I bought the uniform, took classes, and attended training.
One of my biggest hesitations of joining as a leader was that I hate nature. Don’t get me wrong, I love the beauty of nature and can appreciate it, but that’s about it. So, when Brad said, “You don’t have to camp”... e next thing I knew, I was driving to Massawepie for summer camp. roughout the years, horse farms, white water ra ing, campouts, sledding... NOT inside events, mind you.
Brad was there every time without hesitation. He was at nearly every event the first three years at least, rain, snow, sleet... like a mailman, Brad was! And with so much enthusiasm for the program, it was infectious! e scouts had a great time, and I truly believe it was because of him and his desire for them all to do well in the program. He wanted EVERYONE to succeed, whether it was them being fully involved and advancing, or just them having fun at the few events they came to.
It’s one thing to go on a campout if your child is there. But to go when they aren’t? at’s commitment. And that’s what Brad has done countless times for campouts, meetings, and events. Me? Maybe a meeting here or there without my own daughter, perhaps a random event, but a campout? Out of the question. But he pulled at my heartstrings one day: “ ey’ll have to cancel. It’s a Scout planning it for their first time; it was out of their control that we need someone.” So, I agreed.
at “easy hike” was supposed to be a 5 mile one but was closer to 7. is “easy hike” he said was flat? I have picture proof of it being otherwise. However, while I wanted to come up with a way to end this “quick, easy” hike early without doing something that required a trip to the emergency room, I realized something profound. I found myself reflecting on the journey that brought me to that moment.
My journey was much like thatofaScout:Growth,discovery, countless memories, and at the heart of it all, Scoutmaster Brad Carlson. e first meeting, I was uncertain and apprehensive. But Brad had unwavering belief in the potential of each Scout and me. He welcomed the scouts and me with open arms, instilling a sense of confidence and ability in outdoor skills I never knew I possessed.
He patiently guided us through the intricacies of setting up a kitchen, navigating a trail, and building a campfire, all while encouraging us to push beyond our comfort zones. And push I did.
With each camping trip, each nature hike, each new challenge, I discovered a strength and resilience within myself I never knew existed. Brad’s belief in me, in all the scouts and leaders, was the catalyst for my own self-discovery, empowering me to embrace the great outdoors with a newfound sense of enthusiasm and wonder.
Brad’s impact extends beyond skills and adventures. It’s in the campfire stories, the camaraderie, the friendships, and the memories made. His legacy will endure in the hearts and minds of all who had the privilege of calling him “Scoutmaster.” Here’s to you, Brad – true leader, mentor, and friend. May your future adventures be as rewarding and fulfilling as the countless lives you’ve touched along the way.

HAVE KIDS; WILL TRAVEL: MASTER VACATIONING WITH YOUNG CHILDREN
Pack for the journey. Anticipate what your child may need, but remember, unless you are traveling to a remote location,there’s a good chance you can buy many items at your destination. Direct much of your focus on packing items you’ll need for the journey, and less on what you’ll need once you arrive. Food and entertainment are two key components to keep in mind.

Wow, have we been taken advantage of For nearly an entire school year my family has transported one or two non-family member children to and from activities on the pretense that our adult group is friends (our children get along okay). Now after having asked on several separate occasions for help with transports for our child, we have been given one lame excuse after another to not reciprocate. Additionally, the 'friends' group recently, oops, forgot to extend a picnic invitation to their service staff - us! But we've actually been asked if we are 'helping out' next year!
Mr. Larry Boyd, of Bloomfield, gracious-
he saw me working on the flag pole in St. Bridget’s cemetery. His generosity is appreciated, and he’s the great neighbor he’s always been! Thank you!
We have never been offered compensation (which would have been greatly appreciated) in any form even though these pickups and dropoffs were not convenient, actually adding 15-20 minutes to our trips.
So next year, thoughtless people, best of luck finding consistent free help. Not gonna be these chumps.
Small towns have amazing heart
My husband and I were at the New Countryside Family Restaurant in Clifton Springs on Saturday 6/22 when we were pleasantly surprised. A couple of motorcyclers went out of their way to make a man, who was sitting alone, comfortable and happy by simply insisting on sitting with him to have conversation and a meal together. Small towns have amazing heart! I thank you gentleman for being so kind!
Noise ordinances
Yes, it's totally legal to mow your lawn outside of quiet hours, but there are other social contracts. My neighbor mows multiple times a week at 8am. I work night shifts, as do many others. Even if I didn't, it's so noisy and takes forever. If my neighbor needed a favor from me, well, you messed with my sleep. So many times. Why should I uphold my side of that social contract? Consider others around you always. If not because you're a decent person, but if only to have a peaceful symbiotic relationship with someone you should theoretically trust.
Robert M. McInnis
June 12, 2024
Wayland: Robert “Bob” M. McInnis, 84 years of age, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, June 12, 2024, at his beloved home in Wayland.
Bob was born on September 4, 1939, in Caribou, Maine, the son of Maurice and Leola (Peterson) McInnis. His family moved to Lent Hill in Cohocton, where he grew up surrounded by the scenic beauty of rural New York. In 1964, Bob built a house in Wayland out past Loon Lake, a testament to his determination and love for the area, and remained there ever since. He graduated from Cohocton School in 1957 and from Alfred State College with a degree in business management. Bob then attended the NYS Trooper Police Academy, launching a distinguished 23-year career in law enforcement, where his dedication and integrity left a lasting impact. He retired out of the Wayland Barracks in 1985, having served his community with honor.
Bob was a man of many talents and passions.He co-owned and operated B&B Enterprises, where he sold trucks, cars, motorcycles, snowmobiles, and campers. His adventurous spirit led him to explore new places, and he cherished every moment spent with family and friends. Known for his culinary skills, Bob’s kitchen was a place of welcome and warmth, where he loved to cook, share meals and drinks. His love for animals, especially his three cherished cats, Tucker, Benny, and Momo, was well known among his friends. A member of both the Hornell and Cohocton American Legions and a past member of the Cohocton Lions Club,Bob was deeply involved in his community, always ready to lend a hand or share a drink.
Bob was predeceased by his parents, Maurice and Leola McInnis; his sister, Maureen “Molly” Engels; and his brother, Albert “Bill” McInnis. He is survived by his lifelong companion, Vanessa Cole of Wayland; his children, Michael McInnis (Veronica Velez) of Cortlandt Manor, NY, and Brigette McInnis-Day (Eric) of Media, PA; his grandchildren, Olivia, Ruby, Madeline, and Elliot; along with several nieces, nephews, grandnieces, and grandnephews.
Bob’s family and friends are invited to his Celebration of Life on Saturday, July 6, 2024, at 2 pm at the Cohocton American Legion. He will be laid to rest in a private service at St. Pius Cemetery in Cohocton. We would like you to remember Bob’s favorite saying, “Have another drink!” a testament to his joyful and generous spirit.

DID YOU KNOW?
Brief breaks during the work day can dramatically improve one’s ability to focus on a task. A 2011 study published in the journal Cognition found that brief mental breaks can improve focus on a prolonged task. The study’s authors tested participants’ ability to focus on a repetitive computerized task for 50 minutes under various conditions. The control group performed the task without breaks or diversions. The switch group and non-switch group memorized four digits before performing the task and were directed to respond if they saw one of the digits on the screen while performing the task. The switch group was the only group to be presented with the digits twice during the experiment, and both groups were tested on their memory of the digits at the end of the task. Most participants’ performance declined considerably over the course of the 50-minute task. However, the performance of those in the switch group did not decline at all, as the two brief breaks to respond to the digits allowed them to maintain their focus throughout the experiment. The researchers behind the study concluded that the switch group’s performance was steady because the brain is built to detect and respond to change, and its performance will actually suffer if it must maintain prolonged attention on a single task without taking a break. Professionals with a lot on their plates may see their performance improve by taking frequent mental breaks throughout the workday.
