November 11th Veterans Day
those in the military have given to our country. With this in mind, we are dedicating the four weeks in November to our veterans through a series which will educate and enlighten our readers. Our thanks to our sponsor.
How to show your support for veterans
Supporting veterans is a worthy endeavor at any time of year, though such e orts tend to be more prominent in November. Veterans Day is celebrated annually on November 11 in honor of the millions of individuals across the United States who are military veterans. e day coincides with holidays such as Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, which are celebrated in other countries and also honor military veterans. ere’s no denying that veterans need the support of the people whose freedoms they protect. According to a 2021 study from researchers at Brown University’s Watson Institute for International and Public A airs, the percentage of veterans with disabilities is signi cantly higher among post-9/11 veterans (40 percent) than it was with veterans from previous eras (25 percent for Gulf War I veterans and 13 percent for veterans of previous wars). Veterans can bene t from support legislated by elected o cials in Washington, D.C., but there’s also many things ordinary citizens can do to show how much they appreciate the sacri ces veterans and their families have made and will make in the years to come.
• Visit wounded veterans. e United States Census Bureau reports that more than one-third of the nearly 3.8 million men and women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces since September 2001 have a service-connected disability. Many of these individuals are ghting to overcome physical injuries sustained while on active duty. Individuals who want to show their support for veterans can contact their local Veterans A airs (VA) facility to arrange a visit to wounded veterans. Such visits can li veterans’ spirits and reassure them that their sacri ces are both acknowledged and appreciated.
• Support legislation that supports veterans. ough it might seem like a no-brainer, legislation to support veterans o en faces an uphill battle to get passed. By supporting legislation that ensures veterans get the support they need, individuals can send a message to veterans that they haven’t been forgotten and that the very democratic principles they fought to protect are
alive and well. Citizens can write letters to their elected o cials, urging them to support veteran-friendly legislation, and raise awareness of bills and laws through social media.
• Help raise awareness about homeless veterans. Data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development estimates that approximately 40,000 veterans are homeless on any given night. But that gure doesn’t tell the whole story, as the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans notes that, over the course of a year, roughly twice that many veterans experience homelessness. e National Coalition for Homeless Veterans (NCHV) believes that programs to assist homeless veterans should focus on helping them reach a point where they can obtain and sustain gainful employment. In addition, the NCHV feels that the most e ective programs are community-based, nonpro t, “veterans helping veterans” groups. Individuals can o er their support to such groups through nancial donations or other means so they can continue to ensure no veteran sleeps on the street.
Veterans Day is a time to show veterans that their service and sacri ces are not taken for granted. Visiting wounded veterans and supporting e orts to ensure veterans get what they need to live full, healthy and happy lives is a great way to send the message that veterans are appreciated.

REALIZE ENERGY SAVINGS WITH 1 SIMPLE STEP
A simple project that will help keep your home comfortable is topping up your attic insulation. This easy project will reduce your household energy consumption and will save you money on monthly energy bills.
A poorly insulated attic is a primary source of energy loss, forcing your AC unit or furnace to work harder than necessary. Most attics are insulated, but many, especially those in older homes, are not insulated adequately enough. Over time, insulation can settle and compact, allowing heat to escape through gaps.
Topping it up is easy. Ideally, you want to aim for a depth of 16 inches of insulation for an overall R-value of 50. When existing insulation is present, simply level existing insulation to the top of the joist. Lay Roxul ComfortBatt on top of joists, running perpendicular to the first or existing layer of insulation. Ensure batts are butted against each other tightly. Fit batts closely to cross joists: cut batt if necessary (this can be done easily with a serrated blade or bread knife) and leave no space between layers. Don’t forget to insulate the attic hatch to the same level as the rest of the attic. Apply weather stripping to the edge of the hatch to reduce air leakage. Keep in mind that only IC-rated electrical fixtures can have insulation placed with zero clearance. Follow manufacturer’s instructions and local building code to insulate around the chimney. Insulation begins working the moment it is installed and lasts throughout the life of the building, which means one easy DIY project can provide years of savings.

ROOMS CAN SERVE DOUBLE DUTY
Children tend to accumulate toys and games. And as kids grow from children to young adults, their list of must-have itemsfrom video gaming systems to other electronics - grows along with them. Storage can make a room functional for both adults and children. Devote an entire wall to a closet or drawer system where toys can be stored out of sight when necessary. Storage ottomans can be used for extra seating while also providing somewhere for homeowners to stash stuffed animals or games for easy access. When choosing furniture, look for fabrics that are resistant to stains and modular pieces that can be moved around as necessary to create room for playing or entertaining.

NOW HERE’S A TIP
By JoAnn Derson* Got soap scum? Mix dishwashing detergent with baking soda and use it to scrub bathroom walls. It’s very effective, and surprisingly gentle, as baking soda is a mild abrasive that works well without scratching.
* “Unless the label states otherwise, the best rinse temperature for clothing is cold water. It will help the clothing retain its shape and color better, and -- bonus -- it’s the least expensive setting.” -- I.F. in Texas
* When whipping egg whites, make sure you bring your eggs to room temperature beforehand. They will yield greater volume.
* Store asparagus in the fridge only for a few days before serving. Trim the cut end and use wet paper towels to wrap it. Keep it in the crisper drawer.
* Getting your old deck of cards out to play? If they feel gummy, put them in a plastic baggie, add a little bit of talc, baby powder or cornstarch, seal the bag and shake. Knock the excess off before removing from the bag. Shuffle as usual.
* “Wanna spot clean your floor? Spray an old pair of socks with floor cleaner, put them on and do the cha-cha-cha.” -- V.B. in Iowa
PAW’S CORNER
By Sam MazzottaVeterinary careers
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I’d love to work with animals as a career. But I’m not sure I want to go through years of college to become a veterinarian, especially with the cost of tuition. I also want to be sure I really do like this career. How can I switch into the veterinary eld? -- Janice in San Diego
DEAR JANICE: Working with animals can be rewarding at any level, so kudos for pursuing your dream! Many people in the veterinary eld start as veterinary assistants working at veterinary practices, shelters or labs. You’ll work directly with animals and learn how to care for them from more experienced assistants, vet techs and veterinarians.
e pay isn’t very high -- the median salary is about $15 an hour, or just under $30,000 a year, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. But the requirements for entry are low. A license isn’t needed, nor a formal certi cation. You learn on the job.
Experience working with animals is a typical requirement in job listings for veterinary assistants. You can gain this by volunteering at shelters, pet sitting for neighbors or any activity where animals need to be fed, watered, brushed and bedded down.
Another great way to learn about the eld is to ask someone who works in it. If you have a pet, talk to the people you interact with at the vet’s o ce during the annual checkup. Ask the veterinary assistant and tech how they started their careers, what their job is like, and what pitfalls they’ve encountered. Chat with the veterinarian about what motivated them to become a vet. You’ll gain the most information from people who are actively working in the eld -- both the good parts and the bad.

SENIOR NEWS
By Matilda CharlesTwo important product recalls
Several disturbing items have been in the news lately. Have you heard about these product recalls?
CPAP machines: Two dozen di erent CPAP machines have been recalled. e list includes Bilevel PAP, BiPAP or BPAP machines, as well as the CPAP. e reason is a bit frightening. Black foam pieces can come loose and be breathed in or swallowed.
While the recall was issued quite a long time ago, the Food and Drug Administration just updated that information with this alert: If you now have one of the repaired or replaced machines (due to the previous recall), testing is currently being done to ensure that the repair foam used is OK.
e reason for the concern and the current testing: ere have been deaths, far too many deaths, from the breakdown of the foam used in the machines.
To learn more about this, go online to: https://tinyurl.com/hvy73j36. You can also call the Philips company at 877-907-7508. e recall says not to stop using the machine until you talk to your doctor, whether you have an original machine or one that was repaired or is a replacement.
Bedrails on portable beds: e Consumer Product Safety Commission (and several companies) issued a warning for thousands of portable bedrails, the ones that attach to the sides of beds to keep someone from falling out. e problems are so serious that deaths were reported when people became wedged between the mattress and the rail.
ese bedrails were made under various names. Your best bet is to call the Consumer Product Safety Commission and ask about bedrail recalls to be sure you learn about all possible brands. Contact them at 800-638-2772.
For more information, go to the FDA website (fda.gov) and put “Safety Concerns about Bed Rails” in the search box.
For overall recall information, keep an eye on this government site: www.cpsc.gov/recalls

FIVE TIPS TO HELP YOU ON THE ROAD TO YOUR NEW HOME
(NAPSI)—Whenever you rent a truck to move yourself from one home to another, keeping these five facts in mind can help you and your furniture all arrive in good order and good time.
1. Let time be on your side. When planning your trip, take into account the time of day you intend to travel and likely traffic patterns. Always leave lots of extra time and be aware of possible bottlenecks along the way.
2. Read the agreement. Most truck rental agreements say something like the language from the U.S. Department of Transportation that prohibits the “carrying or hauling of explosives and other dangerous articles.” That means you can’t pack paint, chemicals and cleaning materials, flammable solvents, propane, gasoline and the like. Check with your rental agent if you’re not sure about a particular item.
3. Don’t be blindsided. Trucks have big blind spots, what the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration calls the “No-Zone.” You should know where these areas are, especially when changing lanes or coming to a stop.
4. Know what you’re driving. Make sure you can find and understand the use of all the truck’s switches and gauges. Adjust the seat and side mirrors so they match your height and comfort zone. Also, remember, trucks are taller, wider and may weigh up to 10 times more than the average car, explain the experts on truck rental at Penske, so you have to be extra vigilant.
5. Be sure to insure. Most insurance and credit card companies won’t cover truck rentals under existing policies. If your insurance company is among them,considersigningup foradditional coverageoptionsto protect yourself and your belongings. You may feel more confident knowing there is a company that offers free 24/7 emergency

Elon Musk recently completed his purchase of Twitter and promised big changes in favor of free speech. Some think fewer rules will encourage more use of the platform. Others are fearful Twitter will become a “wild west” for content due to less moderation. Will you consider using Twitter with Musk at the helm?
36.8% Yes, I think he will help make the platform more open and free.
10.5% No, I don’t think the changes are good.
52.6% I’ve never used Twitter and probably still won’t.

Gingerbread is a broad term that can describe anything from a firm and crispy cookie to a moist, soft cake. Traditionally, gingerbread is seasoned with ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and other aromatic spices. Molasses and brown sugar counteract the spice with sweetness. North Americans have been baking gingerbread in various shapes or forms for more than 200 years, and the recipes even pre-date the American revolution. However, gingerbread dates back even further to the Shakespearean era, with The Bard having mentioned it in one of his plays. Gingerbread’s name can be trace to medieval England and once referred to any kind of preserved ginger. The term went on to reference ginger-flavored cakes in the 15th century, and gingerbread eventually became popular throughout the world. Even though gingerbread cakes and cookies have been made for centuries, Germans are often credited with creating gingerbread houses, according to Smithsonian. They were probably modeled after the witch’s candy cottage in the German fairy tale, “Hansel and Gretel.” Even though gingerbread can be made any time of year, it is particularly associated with the Christmas season,withgingerbreadmenand other fanciful shapes turning up on cookie platters.
TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
By Keith Roach, M.D.Excess Connective Tissue Leads to Outward Skin Condition
DEAR DR. ROACH: In my 40s, I developed lumps in the palm of my hands. I was diagnosed with Dupuytren’s contracture and underwent hand surgery to correct the condition. I also noticed similar lumps in the arches of my feet, which don’t cause any pain, so I’ve not sought treatment for my feet. Now in my mid-60s, I have experienced a severe bend in my penis. I assume it’s Peyronie’s disease. The bend has lessened over several months. What is the cause and connection between these phenomenon? Should I seek treatment? -- B.M.
ANSWER: All three of the conditions you mention are related to excess growth of connective tissue. In the hand, Dupuytren’s contracture is caused by excess growth of a connective cell (called a fibroblast) in the superficial palmar fascia (fascia is the thick, tough connective tissue found in many places in the body). A very similar condition in the plantar fascia (“plantar” refers to the sole of the feet) is called plantar fibromatosis (also called Ledderhose disease).
Peyronie’s disease is also caused by excess growth of fibroblasts, with deposition of collagen plaques in the penis, causing pain and deformity of the penis. This, in turn, can cause psychological distress and sexual dysfunction. Twenty-one percent of people with Peyronie’s also have Dupuy-tren’s contracture. It is thought that repeated trauma, whether to the hand, penis or foot, is a trigger for the abnormal fibroblast activity in people with a genetic predisposition.
Many men do not speak to their physician about Peyronie’s disease, so they don’t get referred to a urologist, who can discuss the options for treatment. Treatment may include medications, injection and surgery, and referral to an expert is appropriate for all men in whom the condition is suspected.

Thank You!
I would like to give a Huge Thank You to the guys at the Cortese Detail Center. My car was stolen and not found for a week. When I got it back I wasn't sure I even wanted it back. It was trashed Kevin and Gary explained what they could do. When they finished the detailing, it looked liked new. I’m very happy to have my car back!
Outdoor Beauty!
We enjoyed beautiful flowers in our parks and towns all summer, despite the dry start. Many thanks to the town crews, businesses, and volunteers that maintained them. Now with fall, homes and towns are lovely with fall displays with pumpkins, scarecrows, mums and more! Your efforts are enjoyed and appreciated!
Good Deed
I was picking up my subs in Wayland when a good deed guy came in to buy 2 sheet pizzas to boost the morale of his co-workers. I mentioned how great that was for him to do. The next thing I know, he had paid for our subs as well. Angels do exist.
Riga Recreation Halloween Parade
Even the early rain could not dampen the spirits of Trick or Treaters for the Riga Recreation/Churchville Lion's Club annual Halloween Parade. The large and enthusiastic crowd of "Tricksters" were lead through the streets of Churchville by the Churchville Fire Truck and "Fairy Godmother"(Lion, Verna) to the nicely decorated Village Gazebo where they were greeted by members of the Lion's Club and the Union Congregational Church to receive "goodie bags" and apples. Local business gift certificates were also given to uniquely costumed boys & girls!
Many thanks to the Riga Town Board, Village of Churchville, Churchville Lions and LEO Clubs, Union Congregational Church, Churchville FD and Fire Police, parents, trick or treaters, and Fairy Godmother, Verna, for leading the way!
David
Thomas, Riga Recreation SupervisorRudeness?...YES
I agree with all the talk about rudeness of people today! I recently moved back to the area and the rudeness of the people in this area is shocking! If it’s not the words coming out of their mouths, it’s their attitude on the roads, in the stores or walking down the street. I have really seen this with people on the roads. I’ve almost had 2-3 accidents because people think driving rules don’t pertain to them. They have no idea who has the right of way. Folks, the Exit from[local sotre} is an ENTRANCE and EXIT. If you are leaving and in the left hand lane, you are in the wrong lane! I’m really disappointed in people of my home town.
Inconsiderate Neighbors
I live where there is a shared driveway between three houses. Most of the time there are no problems. My vehicle has been hit in my parking area while parked - no one came and told me, of course. I had had my vehicle just two days at that point. So, of course, it goes on my insurance. Now the neighbor up behind has their kids in and out all day long. No problem except their truck has a LOUD muffler and they go past my living room window at least 5 or 6 times, sometimes parking and leaving it running to listen to for 15 to 20 minutes at a time. There is no shutting the noise out as my house is too close. This is not a cool noise. It needs to be quieted down.
Daylight Savings
RAVES RANTS
I do not think daylight savings should end as it is a safety issue for school children. They walk, cross roads, and board busses in the dark. In today’s society, and with drivers ignoring bus stop signs, it is just not safe. If it stops changing, then schools should consider starting one hour later, which has already been a possibility in the past.

Lance Corporal Roger Dale Yencer, A True American Hero
BY JODY GREERVeterans Day is a time to remember the Americans who served our nation. ese courageous servicemen and women represent the best of us. To honor the memory of one of those Americans, a local hometown hero, Roger Yencer Sr., a special ceremony was held last Saturday at the Halley-Allen Post dedication ceremony in Sonyea, NY. A former military veteran and American Legion member, Lance Corporal Roger Dale Yencer served two years and eight months and several operations during his time in Vietnam. He passed away in 2020. As most people who knew him can tell you, he was a true American hero.
e dedication ceremony presented certi cates of appreciation to Dave Spallina of Spallina Materials and Jim Olverd of Kircher Construction. Both companies dedicated materials and labor to construct a newly furnished porch addition to the Hally-Allen Post in recognition of Yencer’s life and legacy. Both Spallina and Olverd are longtime friends of Yencer, going back many years. Upon being presented with the certi cate of recognition, Spallina stated, “It warmed my heart that they did something like that for me. Roger and I would have joked about it and said something silly over it, but I know it’s for Roger and I would do anything for him, if he was still here.” When asked to describe Roger as a person, Spallina remarked, “He’s a true friend. I can’t say enough about him. I could never say anything wrong about Roger. He was a wonderful man.”
Yencer Sr.’s son, Roger Yencer Jr. , was also in attendance for the ceremony. He recalls lovingly, “No matter what time of the day, if the village needed something, my dad would respond. He touched the community. He personally helped if someone needed something. His business would also always help people. at’s how dad was.”
at business was Yencer
Construction, which was active for thirty years before Yencer’s retirement in 2007. While it is no longer in existence today, many fondly remember the contributions Yencer made through his business, and as an individual. According to Yencer’s daughter, Amy Yencer, “my dad didn’t have the best life growing up; his father (my grandfather) passed away when he was very young, so he worked at a younger age to help support my grandmother. My dad didn’t have anything, and that’s why he chose to give to others.”
One of those contributions was Livingston County’s Veterans Park located in Mt. Morris, NY which was established in 2001. e park pays homage to veterans from all wars, but also pays a special and moving tribute to four of Yencer’s fallen comrades. A plaque in the park commemorates his fellow Marines, known simply as “Tex, Bell, Doc and Sparks”. ese fellow U.S. Marines from the Fox-Trot Second Battalion and ird Platoon, never had a chance to make it home to their families, but Yencer found a way to remember their sacri ce in a way that time will never forget. It’s unclear whether Yencer himself
knew the real names of these men, as they were only referred to by their nicknames during combat. What is clear however, is that he knew how important it was to carry on the memory of their sacri ce, and the sacri ce made by all who serve their country. Yencer was able to honor the memory of George Riordan, “Doc,” in a way few people thought was possible. He once spearheaded a surprise ceremony for the Riordan family from Dover, New Hampshire with the aid of nine separate VFW organizations and ten American Legion organizations. Yencer later remarked, “We were nally able to give the military respect that he and his family deserved. All came to give tribute thirty years later for their fallen comrade. e support was unbelievable.”
e Veterans Park is the ideal destination point to visit this Veterans Day holiday. Widely considered a local point of interest, the park boasts an abundance of picturesque scenery decorated with plaques and monuments commemorating veterans who served from the Civil War up until the Afghanistan Wars. Recently, in 2018, the Mt. Morris Fire Department donated a steel beam that was once a part of the World Trade Center building, in memory of all who lost their lives on 9/11.
is Veterans Day, take a moment of re ection, and remember local hometown heroes like Roger Yencer Sr. who served their country and

FOLLOW THE WORD NOT THE WIND
In your King James Bible at Acts 27, we read of the Apostle Paul being taken to Rome by ship.God had given wisdom to him to warn of an approaching storm. The gentle South wind gave the other 276 men an excuse to ignore Paul. Of course they were shipwrecked. I’m afraid also today the majority look for the soft preaching at a fun and games church instead of the warnings of an Old Fashioned, noncompromising Preacher. Love is the motive for speaking the TRUTH rather than coddling. Biblical standards are not to be toned down but rather the people trained up to Bible Truth. You don’t move the lighthouse, you correct the ship. Amen !
