* “My great-nephew and his family came to visit, and his toddler son is quite into opening doors. I had baby-proofed my home, but I did not think about his being able to turn a doorknob. His very smart mother pulled out a sock and slipped it over the doorknob, then secured it with a wide rubber band.

Even I was unable to get a good grip on the doorknob after that!” -- V.R. in North Carolina * Surprise guests? Here’s how to quickly clean your living areas: First, clean the toilet, mirror and vanity in the guest bathroom and leave a fresh towel; grab a laundry basket and remove any clutter from the living room and kitchen; put away or clean dirty dishes and wipe down counters in the kitchen; finally, give carpets a quick vacuum. Then maybe light a great-smelling candle and greet your guests! * “Fireplaces are wonderful for heat and ambience, but the ashes! When cleaning up, I spritz the ashes with a rosemary water solution. This keeps them from dusting up and flying all over, and it smells great. My neighbor puts her damp loose-leaf tea in the fireplace for scent.” -- C.W. in Iowa * “In cold winter months, keep your robe (and slippers or whatever else) under the covers with you when you sleep. Pull it next to or over you a few minutes before you get up. It’ll be toasty and will help make the transition into the cold a little less harsh.” -- Giselle in New York * Empty spice containers can be used to hold different hardware in the shop or in your toolbox.

HOW TO SAFELY NAVIGATE WET ROADS Drive slowly. Many fall road trippers are already driving slowly so they can fully enjoy the fall scenery. But it’s important that drivers slow down even more when encountering wet roadways, as driving slow can reduce the risk of a vehicle hydroplaning. When vehicles hydroplane, they slide uncontrollably on wet surfaces as the tires rise up on the water covering the roads. AAA notes that tires on vehicles driving as slow as 35 miles per hour can still lose some contact with the road, so drivers should maintain low speeds when driving on wet roads and reduce their speeds even further during heavy rains.

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Beware Holiday Foods, Ornaments, Plants DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Please remind your readers of how important it is to keep their pets away from holiday foods. Some foods, like chocolate, can be deadly poisonous to dogs, while rich foods and ingredients like onions or raisins can be dangerous for cats and dogs. -- Jessica in New Jersey DEAR JESSICA: You told them, and thank you! The holiday season, with plenty of parties, family and food, can be hectic for everyone, but it’s important to monitor pets and make sure they’re kept away from potentially harmful items.

Many foods, not just chocolate but onions, grapes and raisins, nuts, avocados and other holiday foods can cause house pets great harm. Store them well out of reach, and keep pets out of the kitchen when cooking and away from serving tables.

A more extensive list of common foods that can be poisonous to pets is available from the Humane Society of the United States (www. humanesociety.org).

Christmas tree ornaments also can potentially be harmful. Cats love knocking down glass ornaments and may accidentally ingest tinsel or other shiny strands. Dogs may gnaw on interesting packages or break into gift boxes of candy or fruit.

Even plants need to be kept out of reach: poinsettias, for example, are toxic to cats.

To minimize risk, place breakable ornaments higher on the tree and put plants well out of reach. During parties or dinners, place your pets in a separate area of the house with bedding, food and water, and check on them occasionally. (This also is helpful in keeping pets’ stress levels down.)

SPIRITUAL CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS Share the story of Christmas The Gospels of Mark and Luke offer differing accounts of the birth of Jesus Christ. Both indicate that Jesus was born to Mary, who was engaged to Joseph, a carpenter. Mary became pregnant through immaculate conception, as she was a virgin when visited by an angel who informed her that she was to carry God’s son. At the time of Christ’s birth, all Jewish people had to be counted by Roman soldiers for tax purposes.

That required people to return to their places of birth. As a result, Mary and Joseph set out on an arduous journey to Bethlehem. Upon arriving in Bethlehem, inns had no vacancies, but Mary and Joseph were given shelter in a stable where Jesus was ultimately born.

THE RIGHT ATTIRE MAKES SHOPPING EASIER Women should avoid taking along a clutch or satchel purse in favor of a cross-body bag that can be slung over a shoulder. Men or women who want to keep their hands completely free can opt for a roomy backpack to stow purchases and prevent themselves from feeling bogged down by bags.

TRY A DIFFERENT TAKE ON TURKEY THIS HOLIDAY SEASON Turkey is a holiday dinner staple in many families. While many might scoff at the idea of altering their holiday turkey traditions, others may embrace changing things up, feeling that the joy of cooking often lies in experimentation.

Those unafraid to try something new might want to cook up a new recipe this year.

DID YOU KNOW? Pets are cherished members of the family, and many pet parents choose to purchase gifts for their animal companions. According to a survey conducted by Rover.com, 95 percent of pet owners have purchased Christmas gifts for their pets. While Christmas is the most popular holiday to buy presents for pets, pet owners also buy presents for their pets’ birthdays and for Valentine’s Day.

SENIOR NEWS By Matilda Charles

Pricy New Drug Means Higher Part B Premiums

The Medicare Part B monthly premium is going up in 2022 by $21.60, one of the biggest increases ever. The reason for it, they say, is the massive cost of a new Alzheimer’s drug, Aduhelm. Our new premium will be $170 per month.

That’s going to be a big bite out of our new Social Security increase, $92 for the average recipient with a benefit of $1,657 per month.

Aduhelm will cost $56,000 per year per patient. And that’s only the beginning of the questions and concerns.

Whether Medicare is going to pay for the drug is still up in the air because it originally thought the price would be much less, closer to $3,000. Certain other insurers have already stated they won’t cover it unless the cost comes down.

As recently as a year ago, U.S. Food and Drug Administration advisers voted against approving the drug as they wondered whether it really works. Clinical trials were inconclusive. Initially the FDA said it was for people with Alzheimer’s, but they’ve already changed their prescribing information and narrowed the criteria for receiving it. Now Aduhelm is for people with very early Alzheimer’s, mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia. It’s no cure, they say, but it slows progression of the disease.

Part of its cost is that it has to be given in an IV in a doctor’s office or hospital. Many hospitals, not knowing if they’ll be paid for administering it (that $56,000 is for the drug only) and who should have it, are holding back. Some are even insisting on doing their own in-house research to see if it works.

Doctors, not knowing if their patients can get the drug, are often hesitant to prescribe it and raise hopes in patients.

Still, we’ll be paying that increased Part B premium in 2022 while they work things out and determine whether Medicare will pay for Aduhelm.

This week’s puzzle answer is elsewhere in this paper.

The Crossword Puzzle is provided by Tribune Media Services.

Go vertical. An easy way to keep things neater is to remove items from the floor and embrace vertical storage. Shoe racks, hooks for purses and a cabinet for coats may do the trick.

HOW TO AVOID THE COLD COMFORT OF A DRAFTY HOUSE For those who live in older homes, the transition to colder weather can be extra disheartening, as the vision of expensive heating bills, chilly rooms and drafty windows dance in their heads. However, it’s easy to change the outlook from cold to cozy with a few simple DIY solutions.

The most effective way to improve the comfort level in your home is to properly insulate. Insulation can be inadequate in older homes. Over time, it can settle and compact, creating gaps. Topping up attic insulation will help keep the warm air in, reducing heating bills and preventing stress on your furnace.

For easy installation, homeowners and professionals alike recommend a stone wool batt insulation. For attics, aim for an r-value of R-50 or a depth of 16 inches.

A little preparation can go a long way to keep the cold at bay. Seal out drafts by replacing worn weatherstripping and caulking along windows, doors, baseboards, and trim. For other ways to beat the cold, consider inexpensive window insulation kits along with thicker drapes, and don’t forget to reverse ceiling fans to push warm air back down.

HOME HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING

DID YOU KNOW? 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.

According to the American Osteopathic Association, one in five teenagers will now experience some form of hearing loss. That rate is roughly 30 percent higher than it was 20 years ago. Though various factors have contributed to that increase, the AOA notes that many experts believe an increased use of headphones among teenagers is partly to blame. Listening to headphones at high volumes for extended periods of time can lead to lifelong hearing loss for children and teens. Parents can encourage children and teenagers to listen to music at reasonable levels when using their headphones, and one effective way to control volume without sacrificing sound is to use over-the-ear headphones instead of earbuds. The Cleveland Clinic notes that over-theear headphones are generally more effective than earbuds at cancelling outside noise. That allows over-the-ear headphone users to listen to music at lower volumes, which can significantly reduce their risk for noise-induced hearing loss.

LAWN & LANDSCAPING

Testing can determine if radon is present in a home. Homeowners can rely on professional companies or purchase self-testing kits at home improvement retailers. If a test comes back positive for high levels, conduct a follow-up test before taking any measures to fix the problem.

Unusual weather can increase radon levels. If repeat testing yields the same results, efforts to reduce radon levels are necessary.

Homeowners must keep in mind that no two situations are the same and various techniques may be necessary to reduce radon levels in a home.

Simply opening the windows in a home may not be enough, and many radon remedies require the skilled services of professional contractors who are experienced in radon reduction procedures. Homes can be fixed, but some instances may be best left to the professionals.

---

DEAR DR. ROACH: Apparently, it is common for older people to have balance issues. Do these balance problems usually stem more from muscular issues or inner ear issues? -- E.M. ANSWER: It is often a combination of issues that lead to balance problems in older adults. Inner ear problems, where the organs of balance are located, are a major cause. However, balance problems are exacerbated by muscle weakness, vision problems, arthritis and medications, to name a few common ones.

The body has many safeguards to keep us from falling. If the balance system can’t tell us our exact position in space, our eyes can, and the neurological system uses fine muscle control to keep us upright and safe. We can often do well even with one system not working properly. When multiple systems are affected, falls are more common.

Improving balance and reducing fall risk often involves multiple interventions. One is working on balance directly. This can be achieved with home exercises; group exercises, like tai chi and yoga, which have the added advantage of increasing muscle control; or with a skilled therapist such as physical or occupational therapy. Making sure vision is as good as possible and staying on top of joint, muscle and neurological conditions will help reduce fall risk.

Medications are so often the source of balance and fall problems that many medical practices (including mine) review medications at every visit to look for errors, medicines that have combined toxicities, medicines that are less safe in older adults and any medicines that might safely be discontinued.

BLOOMFIELD [L]o! the eventide of the year, the melancholy season of Autumn.... the widowed quail, which is shivering on the fallen tree, utters her plaintive cry, causing a momentary sadness to oppress his heart. The oak rears its head above the plain, but is stripped of its foliage,—naked and alone,—a fit emblem of man in the hour of adversity. We see the leaves floating on the bosom of the river, and we feel that such too will soon be our condition. ~Charles Lanman, “The Dying Year,” 1840 GENESEE VALLEY PENNY SAVER

December 12, 2021 Poinsettia plants were prized by the Aztecs, since they produced a vibrant red dye. In the 1600s, poinsettias appeared in print for the first time using their Aztec name,

Cuitlaxochitl, which means “star flower.”

Can you use your design skills to create a festive poinsettia pot? Color in the leaves, which are normally red, any color you’d like and make them as vibrant as typical poinsettias are!

The Gospel Corner A Love That Lasts Yea, you’ve heard it before, GOD loves you, but how long, till I sin again? FOREVER! Read the promise for yourself. “The LORD hath appeared unto me saying Yea, I have loved thee with an EVERLASTING LOVE: ..” Jer. 31:3 That’s a lot different than you hear today. Oh, I’m not in love with her anymore. I fell out of love with him. Not like your GOD. He’s in for the long haul! Yes, sometimes HE has to use some tough Love on us when we rebel and deliberately stay away from church, His people and His Bible. He wants and knows the best for you and your future and family. Yea, HE’S SMARTER THAN YOU! God’s Love is there but you can’t enjoy it away from Him. He said “Come unto Me.” Please do it.

7 Unus ua l Hol i day T r a di t ions You M ay Wa n t t o T ry T h i s Y e a r B Y E L A H A H A S H M AT U L L A H & K I M B E R LY L O N G

H

olidays are perfect excuses to get away from our usual day-to-day routine, spend time with family, eat delicious food, and simply have a good time. What better way to spend them than with the people we love having lots of fun? In the U.S., we might think of traditions like “Elf on a Shelf ” as a modern “unusual tradition.” Around the world, other creative holiday traditions have arisen, and they are very interesting!

1

Have you ever ordered Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) on Christmas instead of a home cooked meal? (If you have, no judgement!) In Japan, this is a tradition. Christmas is not celebrated as much in Japan, however, it can be said that their taste for American food is rather strong. Their choice of celebratory meal each year on December 25th is KFC. How did this come to be, you ask? In 1974, the franchise offered an “American Holiday Meal” that consisted of mashed potatoes, a roll, and fried chicken. This has continued to be a tradition for many Japanese families more than 40 years later. In fact, the fastfood restaurant requests that orders are placed at least two months in advance!

anymore to give to other children as extra presents when Santa visits them.

The toys are placed in a special sack waiting for Santa under the Christmas tree. This tradition teaches kids that the best part of this holiday is not receiving gifts, but giving them, especially to the those in need.

5

Design a family coat of arms! This is another tradition tied to a holiday theme: family. Create your own coat of arms displaying your family pride. To do that, draw a shield on a large piece of paper, then decorate it with a picture of your family. Include a pictograph or symbol for your family or last name. This tradition will bring family members closer together, and it can be a fun way to discuss your lineage while showing how proud you are of your roots!

6

It is also traditional in many cultures to celebrate the new year. This year, consider trying the El Ano Viejo tradition popular in several Latin countries. Build a dummy representing the El Ano Viejo, loosely translated as “the old year,” using cardboard.

Dress the dummy by drawing clothes on it or better yet by gluing scraps of old clothes from each family member. Write down a list of any of your faults and misfortunes on a piece of paper. At midnight exactly, tear the El Ano Viejo to shreds or throw the shreds into a fire and let them burn. While the El Ano Viejo is being destroyed, read the misfortunes out loud to make them vanish along with the old year. This could be a way to relax your mind about the new year and look forward to it while destroying your previous worries and anxieties.

2

In Spain, there is a holiday tradition that some may find a bit shocking. Instead of an elf on a shelf, families place what they see as the most important holiday figurine, “El Caganer,” on display. This translates roughly to “the defecator,” and this is where it gets interesting. The figurine is a porcelain male soldier with his trousers pulled down.

The man is in a squatting position, taking a “number two.” Over the years, this small, indecent statue has placed alongside the Nativity scene. Legend has it that early Spanish farmers would have horrible luck with their crops if they did not do this during the holidays. The tradition still stands today, but the figurines can now hold different faces such as those of celebrities, sports stars, and famous singers.

7

Another way to celebrate and welcome a promising new year is to bang pots and pans on New Year’s Eve right as the clock strikes midnight. The idea behind this unusual tradition is to use the noise to ward off evil spirits and bad luck. This may also provide an opportunity to have fun and welcome the new year together with our families—and with a bang—while starting the new year fresh with optimism!

3

In Oaxaca, Mexico, this unique tradition is held close to the heart, even if others find it strange. It involves a radish, a small, edible root vegetable.

During the holiday season, this root vegetable is intricately carved, like the way pumpkins are carved in the United Stated during Halloween. Oaxaca’s annual celebration consists of the sophisticated carving of a radish on the 23rd of December. These gorgeous creations are sold during the holiday season to be used as a center piece for the table on the night of Christmas, which is widely celebrated in Spain as “Navidad.” “Feliz Navidad,” as in the popular Christmas song, translates to “Merry Christmas.”

4

Some holiday traditions are tied to the Christmas spirit rather than a particular culture, such as teaching kids about giving back! Since December holidays are all about giving presents and having a good time with our loved ones, why not teach them the art of giving back? In this Christmas tradition, parents let their kids choose from the toys they own but do not play with

S E V RA Renewed faith I want to thank the office manager, Lori, for going above and beyond the call of duty for me, a customer. I called up concerning an item I wanted picked up. The representative I was speaking to wasn't the friendliest representative that I had spoken to at [local company]. I will not name her, but she just had a way about her when it came to speaking to a customer.

She did not display any kindness for my situation, and I finally asked to speak with a supervisor. I explained my predicament.

Lori was genuinely concerned, so much so that she put an order in to have the item picked up as early as the next day.

Wow! That is service for you! The representative who I had spoken to earlier said that they wouldn't even pick the item up at all. Thanks, Lori!

Great work!

I recently met Jose Ayala. He drove from Rochester to Geneseo to pick up my old refrigerator. He uses old appliances to teach young people how to repair them. Thanks for doing great work with young people, Jose!

Unbelievable!

I still cannot believe that a total stranger paid for my week’s worth of groceries at Honeoye Falls Marketplace! She was ahead of me and had checked out, but had heard me tell the cashier that I would appreciate it if she could put the filled grocery bags into the shopping cart as I had had a really rotten week and could not lift.This kind-hearted stranger heard me say this and had somehow indicted to the cashier that she would pay for my groceries. When the total came up, both she and the cashier told me that the groceries had been paid for. I was so taken off guard. I know I did assure her that I would “pay this kindness forward,” and I certainly will. I still get goosebumps when I think of this woman’s generosity!

Foreign Aid The USA sends ten million dollars in foreign aid to Israel every day. Think of what ten million dollars a day could do for places in America. This generous giving should be stopped and the ten million per day should be given to towns in the USA. Slow down!

You are moronic to be speeding through a small subdivision where I live and have two kids. You are gaining nothing and putting lives in danger. I can hear the tires squealing around the bend and you slamming on the breaks, and for what? To get home and turn on your tv? You're a clown. They should tear up the road so your suspension gets destroyed as punishment for your stupidity!

Global Warming To the person denying global warming: Do you think the world is lying to you? Yes, we've been talking about it for years because it's a gradual thing; it's not going to happen overnight.

We've been warned for years. We can now see it happening. If this isn't enough for you to open up your mind and make sense of this, nothing will.

Aug 30, 2021: It was the first time on record, and it was only the fourth time that temperatures there—an ice-capped expanse two miles above sea level, located in the very center of the Arctic island's interior—had risen above freezing. That’s a warning! Are you not aware that there are more wildfires, and they're burning hotter and longer? This is because there's more drought. Can you explain what's happening to our coral reefs? Why are they bleaching out? I don't have enough room here to tell you everything you need to be told. Please educate yourself.

Cheers to the Broadway Theatre League Thanks for bringing another world class musical to Rochester.

I attended the Simon & Garfunkel show last Tuesday evening and it was sensational. Their music and lyrics are timeless, and the performers showed such respect to the famous duo with precision and aplomb. Thanks once again for providing such an enjoyable evening!
