Watch out for lost pet scam

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Please warn your readers to watch out for a new scam targeting pet owners. ese despicable people look for “Lost Pet” signs and call the owner’s number, claiming that they are a nearby shelter and that they’ve found their pet. But there’s a catch: In order to get the pet back, the owner must pay the shelter using an online payment app or by sending gi cards. And here’s the cruelest part: e scammers don’t have their pet. ey just take the money and disappear. Please sound the alarm. -- Denise O., San Francisco

DEAR DENISE: Absolutely, and thank you for this alert! Losing a pet is heartbreaking. Scammers always strike when we’re at our most vulnerable, and it’s easy to fall for their scheme when we would do anything to get our pet back home.

More details on the rise of this scam in the San Francisco area can be found here: https://tinyurl.com/3dnmtsjs.

And here’s info on a similar scam in the Rochester, New York, area that targets your phone number: https://tinyurl.com/yt96mhn9.

If you’re contacted by someone claiming to have found your lost pet, always use caution. Look for these red ags:

-- e person claims you need to pay a ne to get your pet back, using an online payment service or gi cards.

-- e scammer says they need to send you a Google veri cation code.

-- e scammer refuses to send you a photo of your pet.

Here’s what to do next:

-- Call a friend and get their perspective. It’s hard to think clearly when you’re upset.

-- Call the scammer’s number back. If they don’t answer, or it’s a wrong number, it’s a scam.

-- Report the scam call to the local police department. ey can’t recover your pet, but they can alert others in your community.

July 4th: Celebrating Our Nation’s Independence with “Pomp and Parade … Bonfires and Illuminations”

BY SUZIE WELLS

Whether you live in downtown Rochester, out in the region’s most rural areas, or somewhere in between, chances are you heard the telltale booms of reworks last weekend. Across the nation, communities celebrate our nation’s Independence Day with festivals, celebrations of various kinds, and o entimes reworks. July 4th celebrates our nation’s independence from British rule with the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

Every July 3rd, residents set Conesus Lake’s perimeter ablaze with a Ring of Fire, road ares and torches at the lake’s edge turning the Seneca tradition of gathering at res at the water’s edge “to celebrate [the] beauty and abundance of the lake” into an annual Independence Day tradition for residents, vacationers, and visitors alike. Nearby towns set o reworks therea er, illuminating the sky for all to enjoy. According to KidsOutandAbout.com, Sodus Bay, Honeoye Lake, and Farmington residents also celebrate July 3rd. en on the 4th, communities across the Rochester area host a myriad of celebrations at parks, community centers, and town halls. Celebrations o en include parades, live music, food/beverages, and reworks. We celebrate because we can, and we must remember the signi cance, that we can celebrate such freedoms because our nation gained independence from British rule at this time in 1776. Why reworks, though? I assumed it had reference to the explosions, artillery re, “bombs bursting in air” from the Revolutionary War itself, but I questioned why Americans would use reworks to celebrate if as a nation we may want to forget the explosions and artillery. So I did some research.

According to History, the tradition of setting o reworks on July 4th began in Philadelphia on July 4, 1777, during the rst organized celebration of Independence Day, where ships’ cannons red a 13gun salute in honor of the 13 colonies. at night there was “a grand exhibition of reworks (which began and concluded with thirteen rockets) on the Commons, and the city was beautifully illuminated” (History).

As Independence Day celebrations grew in popularity a er the War of 1812, when our nation battled again against Britain, reworks became more readily available, and public safety concerns of cannon and gun re phased the latter options out of celebrations in favor of reworks (History). Since the holiday falls mid-summer, July 4th celebrations across the nation focus on leisure activities and casual get-togethers with friends and family. It is not a solemn occasion, but instead a festive celebration of our nation’s independence. America’s use of reworks and pyrotechnics dates long before Independence Day, though, as a common tool of celebration and thanksgiving, “the result of hundreds of years of royal pageantry,” according to Brittanica. When President John Adams wrote that the Continental Congress’ independence declaration “ought to be

solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bon res, and Illuminations ( reworks) from one end of this continent to the other from this time forward forever more,” he invoked “one of the most recognizable celebrations of nationhood of his time: reworks” (Brittanica).

Fireworks and festivities around the Rochester area are incredible celebrations with community fun that can’t be beat. Celebrate our independence and freedoms (yes, even with a healthy dose of realism of rights not yet a orded equally to all – let’s continue to work on that even as we celebrate). Celebrate the ability to make choices for ourselves, to vote for representatives in our government, all that was not a orded to colonists pre-revolution. Celebrate with friends and family at those backyard barbecues, festivals, parades, and reworks, but let’s not forget why we celebrate. Let’s recognize and appreciate our rights.

I especially think of Genesee Country Village & Museum’s naturalization ceremony they host each July 4th. I love the added perspective:witnessingthatceremonyo ersanincredibleopportunity to re ect. People from around the globe come seeking US citizenship o en because in their home countries, they lack the rights we may take for granted. Yes, our nation has its problems. We are a melting pot of ideas and cultures that o en clash. Humans are di erent, but it’s important to know that our ancestors chose to form a government whose power should come from the governed. We have the right to vote, to speak up for what we think is right. We can use our civic responsibility to help change. Some around the world cannot say the same.

Even as we celebrate with picnics, parades, and reworks, let’s remember and appreciate the reason for our celebration.

DID YOU KNOW?

Halitosis, or bad breath as it’s commonly known, can result from any number of factors. While food can be a culprit, some additional factors may be contributing to mouth odor as well. Poor dental hygiene is a particular concern. According to Colgate and the American Dental Association, failure to brush and floss teeth regularly leads to the accumulation of food particles in the mouth. This food can collect bacteria and begin to break down, causing a bad aroma. Dry mouth is another condition that causes bad breath. Without adequate saliva production, particles of food that may cause odor are not swept away regularly. Bad breath also may be an indication of a medical condition elsewhere in the body. Upper respiratory infections and gastrointestinal disturbances may contribute to halitosis.

NEW PATIENTS WELCOME! Always practice summer sun safety

191 Main St., Dansville, NY teachoutdental.com

Use only broad-spectrum SPF sunscreen. Look for a sunblock product that boasts an SPF of at least 30. The FDA requires any sunscreen with an SPF below 15 to carry a warning that it only protects against sunburn, not skin cancer or skin aging. Find a sunscreen that works against UVA and UVB rays as well. UVA rays are mostly responsible for contributing to skin cancer and premature aging. Reapply frequently, especially when swimming or engaging in activities that cause sweating.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

How Certain Diet Styles Work to Lower Heart Disease Risk

DEAR DR. ROACH: Which diet styles in particular are associated with a lower risk of heart disease? Many people get confused about what a healthy diet actually consists of. Is a Mediterranean diet easier than an extreme low-fat diet? -- D.H.H.

ANSWER: There are several styles of diet that have been proven to be healthier than a typical North American diet. Two of the best that have been studied are the ones you mentioned -- the extreme low-fat diet and the Mediterranean-style diet -- but there are many others that show benefit and a few that show harm.

In a landmark study published by Dr. Dean Ornish in 1998, intensive lifestyle changes reduced the amount of heart disease (measured by blockages in the heart arteries) more than those in the control group without medication. This remarkable result required a diet that was mostly vegetarian (egg whites and only 1 cup of milk a day) and no more than 10% fat (the average American diet is 30% to 35% fat).

In addition to dietary changes, participants performed aerobic exercise (3 hours per week), stress management (1 hour per day) and group psychosocial support (4 hours twice a week), and they also had a 100% smoking cessation rate. It is unclear how much of the benefit in reversing heart blockages is due to diet and how much is due to other beneficial behavior changes, or whether they all worked together (which seems likely to me).

The Mediterranean diet, when studied, also reduced risk of heart disease, with a roughly 30% relative-risk reduction in heart attack, stroke or death due to heart disease. This diet is characterized by:

-- An abundant use of olive oil

-- High consumption of plant foods (fruits, vegetables, legumes, cereals, nuts and seeds)

-- Frequent but moderate intake of wine (especially red wine) with meals

-- Moderate consumption of fish, seafood, fermented dairy products (yogurt and cheese), poultry and eggs

-- Low consumption of red and processed meat as well as sweets

There isn’t a doubt that the Mediterranean diet is much easier for most to comply with. The two diets haven’t been compared, so I can’t say which is better, but I more commonly recommend the Mediterranean diet. However, I do not recommend drinking wine for any kind of health benefit. Exercise, stress management and psychosocial support would be likely to improve outcomes with any kind of favorable dietary change.

The DASH diet -- a lower-salt diet with 4 to 5 servings of fruit, 4 to 5 servings of vegetables and 2 to 3 servings of low-fat dairy per day, with less than 25% of daily caloric intake from fat -- has been shown to reduce blood pressure. Moreover, in people with high or normal blood pressure, this diet lowers risk of colorectal cancer, cardiovascular disease and premature mortality. It’s also easy to maintain.

Many people ask me about ketogenic (“keto”) diets, which typically involve large amounts of meat and, consequently, a high proportion of protein and fat. Although these types of diets can cause short-term weight loss, a recent study showed these diets unfortunately increased cholesterol levels and more than doubled the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes (heart attack and death).

So, I recommend against following this type of diet and remind readers that weight loss does not necessarily translate into better health. As the above studies have shown, a person of any weight can better their health by having a more plant-based diet, getting regular exercise, managing their stress and receiving psychosocial support. The changes you make do not need to be extreme in order for you to receive better health.

YARD SALE TIPS

Bereasonablewhenpricingitems. Be objective in your assessment of your things. What has value to you may not have as much value to someone else. Pricing items at one-third of their initial cost is a good starting point. This leaves room for negotiation.

HOST A SUCCESSFUL YARD SALE

Choose the right date and time

Plan when to hold the sale by looking at the calendar and choosing an open weekend. Many people host their yard sales on Friday, Saturday or Sunday mornings, theorizing that this is when the most people will be free to browse their wares.

Begin early in the morning so that shoppers will not need to disrupt their schedules much to visit neighborhood sales. A 7 a.m. start time will attract the early birds and free up most of the day.

TIPS FOR COMFORTABLE CAMPING

Invest in quality gear - In addition to the tent, campers will need a tarp/ground cover to place under the tent. This helps prevent moisture seepage from the soil. Next, determine how everyone will sleep, whether on the ground or in cots. Cots can be the most comfortable options, but they take up a lot of space and can be heavy to transport - which is less than ideal when backpacking to a campsite. Inflatable mattresses or sleeping pads can be used in conjunction with sleeping bags to provide a soft, cushioned surface. Some are affordable at $40 while others may cost as much as $300. Costlier options may be best for frequent campers.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

By Lucie Winborne

* In 2005, a Powerball drawing had a stunning 110 second-place winners, all of whom attributed their luck to ... a fortune cookie. No foul play was involved, just a Chinese fortune cookie distribution factory named Wonton Food, which happened to correctly foretell five of the six winning numbers. Each grateful recipient took home between $100,000 and $500,000.

DID YOU KNOW?

According to Mental Health America, individuals’ reactions to the death of a loved one can elicit unique emotions linked to their relationship to the deceased. For example, MHA, a community-based nonprofit focused on promoting mental health, notes that a child’s death could inspire different feelings than the loss of an elderly spouse. When parents lose a child, that death may arouse a sense of injustice that can overwhelm the child’s parents as they contemplate lost potential, unfulfilled dreams and, in certain instances, the child’s suffering. Elderly individuals who lose a spouse may be overcome by feelings of loneliness. Recognition of these different reactions is important because it can help individuals and their support networks more effectively cope with their grief.

UNDERSTANDING LIFE INSURANCE

When choosing coverage, you will no doubt be asked if you prefer term insurance or permanent insurance. Term insurance is the least expensive life insurance, and such policies only last for a predetermined number of years. Men and women may purchase life insurance policies if they only want life insurance until they retire or until their children reach adulthood. Permanent insurance is more expensive and will last from the moment you purchase the policy until your death. Many people choose permanent life insurance policies so the money their beneficiaries receive upon their death can be used to pay estate taxes. In addition, there is an investment component to permanent insurance policies, as a portion of the premiums on such policies is invested (policies will spell out how the money is invested) and allowed to grow tax-free so long as the policy is open. Term insurance only provides protection with no investments.

wallet at the checkout counter. I had $1 in that wallet. I also had 10 IDs/store cards, 3 credit cards, 1 $50 gift card, 2 bank cards, and 4 blank checks. (Mostly) all eventually replaceable. Most important to me is an irreplaceable photo of my husband’s grandparents that I am going to have enlarged, which would have been a loss without measure. When the lady at the service desk handed me my wallet (she already had it under lock and key), she said “Have a blessed day!” I told her I just did!

Thank you for following the rules of the road

I’d like to thank those drivers on the roads that use their turn signals, come to complete stops at stop signs, and all the other rules that are not always followed. As a mom who is teaching her teenager to drive and to follow all the laws, it’s nice to see other drivers reinforcing what should be done. By doing things properly we can all help to keep the roads safe for drivers young and old!

Doctors giving disability placards too easily

It is a big problem and it is abused terribly, with disability placards that people truly don't need and people running to the doctors to get their pets signed off as emotional support animal when their pet is not allowed in an apartment building. This is so abused. Why do the doctors just sign off so easily to someone who walks in and wants their pet certified when they don't have a psychological diagnosis or aren't a combat vet? Sure, people just want to take their pet to an apartment building that has a no pet policy. And I know for a fact this is done frequently along with people who truly don't need a disability placard for their car. Doctors need to examine this extensively before just passing out anything to everyone. It's very unfair to people who truly need it. I have seen people struggling with canes because they cannot get a handicap parking spot because of people who abuse it. These doctors need to be held responsible/accountable. Shame on you; you know you are faking.

No license required?

Did I miss something? When did it become legal for off-road recreational vehicles to be ON the road with registered, licensed, insured, and inspected vehicles? Did I also miss a drop in age requirement for drivers on the road? Apparently kids as young as 12-14 are able to drive their UTV's and side by side along the highway at any time of the day. Is it legal for me to buy one of these, slap a "slow moving vehicle" sign on the back and drive it to work? I'm in!! Think of the thousands I'll save in fees!

EXPECT

Delays or schedule changes: Even the best contractors cannot control every aspect of the job. They rely on subcontractors and vendors to do portions of the work. Materials may not always arrive on time, or they may fall short of homeowners’ expectations. This can push back the project schedule. Homeowners should hope for everything to be done on time, but it can be less stressful if homeowners anticipate delays and be a pleasant surprise if there are no delays.

BENEFITS

Experience: A trial and error approach can work with various projects and problems. But applying such an approach to home improvement projects is risky and potentially dangerous, not to mention costly. Experienced professional contractors with strong track records (seek recommendations from friends or neighbors) won’t have to go through trial and error and are therefore more likely than DIYers to complete a project on time and on budget.

DID YOU KNOW?

Many an amateur landscaper has encountered grubs while tending to their lawns, but even the most attentive green thumber may have a lawn infested with grubs and not know it. According to the pest and weed experts at Roundup® , grubs often go unnoticed until late summer, when they’ve already done substantial damage to a lawn. Oddly enough, one of the telltales signs of a grub infestation is not the grubs themselves but the animals looking to dine on them. Fully grown grubs make for hearty meals, so homeowners who notice raccoons, skunks, armadillos, and/or birds digging up their lawns may have a grub infestation. That’s because these unwanted guests like to dine on mature grubs who have spent summer feasting on organic matterinthesoil.Anothersignofa possible grub infestation is a lawn that feels spongy when stepped on. Patches of dead grass that peel back easily are a sign that grubs have eaten the roots that keep healthy grass in place.
