CONSERVE FUEL DURING YOUR DAILY COMMUTE Commuting is a part of daily life for many working professionals. According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2011 American Community Survey, the average American spends 25 minutes commuting to work each day. However, Citi’s 2015 ThankYou Premier Commuter Index says the average commute time in the United States is 45 minutes. The reasons for that disparity are unknown, though if one accepts the latter statistic as more accurate than the yearsold Census Bureau data, it’s fair to say Americans spend far more time getting to work than their neighbors to the north. But commutes in Canada also can be lengthy, as Canada’s National Household Survey found that, in 2011, commuters in Canada spent an average of roughly 25 minutes traveling to work each day. While many people enjoy their daily commutes, feeling it’s a time to prepare for the day ahead and, if using public transportation, to relax and let someone else do the work, it’s fair to say the majority of commuters would like to spend less time getting to and from work. Many would also like to spend less money getting to and from their offices, and finding ways to conserve fuel is an effective way to do just that.

KEEP RODENTS OUT THIS WINTER

Many people mistakenly believe pests should only be dealt with once inside a home.However,the best pest control is the preventative kind and can be accomplished by taking proactive steps to prevent pests from entering the home in the first place. Rodents, the most common winter pests, invade nearly 21 millionU.S.homeseachwinter.

Despitealltheproperprecautions, ifrodentsstillfindtheirwayinside, they often leave clues of their presence. Droppings, one of the most visible signs, are most frequently found in kitchen cabinets, along walls, on top of wall studs or beams, near nests and in boxes, bags, old furniture and other objects. Gnaw marks and tracks are other visible evidence of a rodent problem. Rodents will also sometimes reveal themselves through scurryingsounds.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Statins Do Not Increase Risk of Death by Suicide in Men Over 60

DEAR DR. ROACH: I have read that there is a correlation between the use of statins and suicide in men over 60, especially if they have suffered from chronic depression. Can you tell me if this has been studied more? -- K.M.

ANSWER: This concern has been studied extensively. An older class of cholesterol medication, the fibrates, was associated with a small increased risk of suicide and violent deaths, in several large studies. However, a very large study published in 2020 showed no increase in risk of death by suicide among those taking statin drugs. In fact, that study, as well as several others, have shown a decrease in depression risk among statin users. Statins have even been found to be (modestly) effective in treatment of drug-resistant depression.

Men over 60 are certainly at a higher risk from death by suicide, but statin drugs do not appear to increase that risk. Anyone with thoughts of hurting themselves should seek care from their doctor, a mental health professional, or the suicide and crisis lifeline at 988 in the U.S. and 833-456-4566 in most Canadian provinces. ***

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am 74. I have always been described as small-boned. I am on a statin, but otherwise, I’m healthy. I was recently diagnosed with osteopenia. I do not eat dairy, but I do take vitamin D. I am vegetarian and eat lots of tofu. I am very concerned about taking any additional medicines. Suggestions, please? -- F.M.D.

ANSWER: Osteopenia, or low bone density, is analogous to borderline diabetes or elevated blood pressure. It’s not a disease in itself, but it puts you in a range between the healthiest condition and one that can put you at risk. In the case of osteopenia, you are at a higher risk for developing osteoporosis, which, in turn, puts you at a high risk for a fracture, especially one of the spine or the hip. We do not normally treat low bone density with medicine. Lifestyle interventions to help slow loss of bone density include not only the calcium and vitamin D you are taking, but I especially recommend exercise. Weight-bearing, musclestrengthening and posture exercises are proven to help. Smokers should quit.

You should have gotten a T-score on your report, which compares your bone density for a given bone to a healthy young adult. The worse the T-score, the closer you are to osteoporosis, which is a T score below -2.5. Depending on how close you are to osteoporosis, the sooner your bone density test should be repeated. People with osteoporosis should be considered for medication. I understand your concern about taking more medicine than you need, but you really don’t want a hip fracture to occur.

Gas Station Thanks

Thank you so very much for the young man and his daughter who paid for my gas on Thursday, February 3rd in Bloomfield. My sister and I started out to meet another sister for coffee when I realized my car was on empty. I stopped at the next gas station but was having difficulty getting my credit card to register when this gentleman put gas in my tank from his host. A very large amount of gas! Can you imagine such thoughtfulness! And I didn’t even get his name. Thank you again and bless your kindness.

Thank You Naples!

I was pleasantly surprised to find beautiful Valentines posted all along Main St. in Naples. Thank you to the organizations, businesses and individuals responsible. Made my day! Happy Valentine's Day!

Rural Road Rager

Last week I was sitting at the stop sign at the bottom of our rural and partial seasonal road, waiting for you, an oncoming car, to pass by before entering the County Rd. You decided to put on your blinker at the last minute, pull in front of me, stop, and roll down your window. You then proceeded to yell, claiming I am in your lane (not true) and ask "what am I doing?"! I said "I am turning" and sweetly said goodbye and drove off. This enraged you as you shouted expletives and laid on your horn. I thought you would come after me next, but didn't. Wow, what an angry and aggressive young man you are, triggered by something that was so nothing!

Mind My Own Business?

According to the CDC, obesity costs the Healthcare System $173 billion dollars each year. A cost we all pay in the form of higher insurance premiums. So your daily garbage plate is taking money out of my pocket. I'd say that makes it my business.

To The Anti Dog Woman

To the woman who lives on my street and hates dogs, STOP harassing me every time I simply walk by your house with my dogs. They’re NOT going to the bathroom in your yard. We are allowed to utilize the PUBLIC sidewalk. If you don’t stop I will call the police on you just like you do to everyone else on the street. Get a taste of your own medicine.

Thanks

I would like to thank all the folks who stopped and made sure I was alright on Friday morning when my Ford truck went off the road and into a ditch on Rt. 46 just before Rt. 21. I was pinned in the truck in the ditch. AAA got there three hours after it happened. I want to thank ALL who stopped to make sure I was ok. Kudos to the state trooper who also stopped.

Ganondagan Celebrates 20th Annual Native American Winter Games

BY SUZIE WELLS

On Saturday, Feb 18, 2023, from 10am-4pm, with or without snow, the Seneca Art & Culture Center at Ganondagan will celebrate winter and the Seneca ways through traditional Native American activities.

According to organizers, “During the long harsh winters in Western New York, the Seneca nestled in their bark longhouses to repair clothing, make tools, and prepare for the spring. Despite the winter weather, Senecas remained active throughout the season. Many of the winter activities that traditionally occupied them outdoors are still in practice today.”

is free event welcomes the public to experience a variety of indoor and outdoor activities at the center and across the grounds. e Kindred Moon Kennels dog sled team will demonstrate racing, and Tuscarora demonstrator Belinda Patterson will show how the Seneca processed maple sap into sugar.

Snowshoe on the beautiful Ganondagan grounds or try Snowsnake, “a Haudenosaunee sport steeped in tradition.” Or try racing a snow boat down a snowy hills’ channels similar to today’s Pinewood Derbies. A few loaner boats will be available to try at the event, and plans and instructions are available on Ganondagan’s website for anyone interested in making your own to bring on the 18th.

Inside the center, join Ronnie Reitter of the Seneca, Wolf Clan for the traditional winter activity listening to Haudenosaunee stories at 12:30 and 3pm. Seneca Bill Crouse demonstrates and facilitates traditional games from 10:30am-12pm and again at 1:30-3pm.

From 10am-3:30pm check out the Gi of the White Tail Deer Learning Center, in which you’ll learn how the Seneca used every part of the white tail deer. Wasting nothing, they used the antlers, bones, sinew, hide, fur, hoofs, eyes, brains, and internal organs to create tools, jewelry, clothing, hair ornaments, cra ing notions, and more, as well as for food.

While you’re at the Winter Games, explore the Wampum Learning Center. And, of course, if you haven’t had the opportunity to see the award-winning short lm, the Iroquois Creation Story, or tour the Seneca Center’s Gallery, check them out throughout the day.

Visitors to Ganondagan may enjoy three marked trails of the state historical site from dawn to dusk year-round. Illustrated signs along the trails teach visitors about the signi cance of plant life to the Seneca as well as Haudenosaunee customs and beliefs. e Trail of Peace details bits of Seneca history and oral tradition. e Earth is Our Mother Trail identi es plants and explains their uses for the Seneca. At Fort Hill is the Granary Trail, where visitors relive a day in July 1867 through journal entries from the Denonville campaign, when a large

French army attacked and destroyed Ganondagan. Or check out the self-guided Tree Tour or Medicine Walk. Download the tour directly to any GPS device. All trails are hikable year-round, though visitors should be cautious in icy and snowy conditions. Be on the lookout for animal tracks while hiking. Field guides to local animals, birds, and plants are available at the Center.

Year-round, the Seneca Art & Culture Center hosts school and community groups from across the region for a variety of workshops and educational experiences. Most common is the Life of the Seneca, featuring the formation of the Haudenosaunee culture, construction of the Bark Longhouse, and everyday life in the 1600s. Students immerse themselves in the longhouse life, making connections to life today.

e workshop on Onondowa’ga:’ : People of the Great Hill, gives educators a deeper understanding of the Hodinohso:ni’ Confederacy and the formation of the Six Nation’s League of the Iroquois, its clan systems, social life, stereotypes, and current issues. is workshop is highly interactive and most productive when participants o er questions prior to the workshop, organizers say.

In other workshops, Native American Interpreters tell traditional stories to educate and excite learners of all ages. For the youngest of visitors, A Bag of Stories workshop helps children experience the value of storytelling and make their very own felt storyteller’s pouch. In another available workshop, volunteers and sta show the importance of corn to the Seneca people and demonstrate uses of cornhusks. Visitors hear the story of e No Face Cornhusk Doll and construct their own doll. Still another tour focuses on the Hodinohso:ni’ Women, who selected their clans’ chiefs for centuries before American women won the vote. Virtual tours are available for groups too far to visit in person.

Check out the Winter Games on February 18th or stop by during their open hours. For more information, visit ganondagan.org or stop by Seneca Art & Culture Center, 7000 County Rd. 41, Victor, NY.

MAKE CUT FLOWERS LAST LONGER

Purchase immature blooms

Although many desire an arrangement of all opened flowers, bouquets that have some closed buds or those that are just beginning to peek out will likely last longer than bouquets that have already bloomed. The flowers will continue to open and wilting flowers can be removed to make room for the others.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* “It can be tricky to add new keys to a key ring, especially if you don’t have much of a fingernail. I have found a foolproof way to get the key started. Just use a staple remover. It works wonders!” -- T.R. in Indiana

* If you find that you have small scratches in your wood furniture, try this old trick: Rub a walnut over dings to cover them up. Or find a matching brown crayon, rub it lightly into the scratch, and finish with a hair dryer held 10 inches away for about 10-15 seconds. It melts the wax of the crayon, and then you can buff it with a soft rag. Any excess is swept away and the color remains.

* Got small kids? If your little one keeps rolling out of his bed, here’s a tip: Use a pool noodle tucked under the fitted sheet, lengthwise along the edge of the bed. It’s just enough of a bumper to send a sleeping child back to the center of the mattress.

* “If you have many mismatched frames that you would like to use, you can try spray painting them all the same color. I had several that were different colors and a little bit beat up, but I wanted to use them in one big group. I painted them all glossy black, and they look great!”

-- W.F. in Arkansas

* Hanging shoe racks are a wonderful organizational tool, especially the ones made of plastic that have see-through pockets. You can use them on the back of your bathroom door for small towels and toiletries, or how about on the back of baby’s door as a diaper organizer? My favorite use is on the back of my garage door to hold all the cleaning bottles and solutions with other supplies. They are nice and high, and out of reach of little hands.

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Should I Buy a Pet on an Online Marketplace?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I was scrolling through my social media account and an ad popped up showing a really cute puppy for sale. What are people’s experiences buying pets online? -- Curtis, via email

DEAR CURTIS: e short answer is, don’t. It’s unlikely that what you saw was an approved ad, because most social media companies do not allow pet sales or advertising for the sale of pets. Probably, someone created a post and made it public.

Avoid responding to the post, even if you think you know the person who posted it or think you know the location. Chances are it’s either a scam to part you from your hardearned money, or you will receive a puppy that is not the one advertised or is very ill and needs a lot of medical care. I’ve heard too many stories from owners who got scammed from such online transactions.

If you just want a cute animal companion, adopt a pet through your local shelter. You’ll be able to see and interact with a potential pet, and the shelter will help you evaluate whether you’re ready for a dog at this point. ere is a cost involved with adoption, but those fees are upfront. And I guarantee it is substantially less than what you will pay a shady pet dealer (or pay out in medical bills later on).

If you absolutely want a speci c breed of dog, do the homework required. Find nearby breeders who specialize in the breed you’re interested in. Read up on the breed. Find out the nancial requirements to match with, purchase, train and care for that dog.

No matter which path you pick, know that pets are an investment of money and time. e dividend is a healthy, happy pet that adores you. Don’t take a shortcut.

SENIOR NEWS By

Matilda Charles

Are ere Recalled Foods in Your Freezer?

How many food items in your freezer, refrigerator or kitchen cabinet are on recall lists?

I spotted a food recall alert on the news, but I only heard part of the announcement. On to the internet I went, looking for the information. And sure enough, for the rst time ever, I actually had a recalled food item. It was a bit unnerving to realize that I hadn’t been reading all the recall alerts I get in my email inbox.

While looking for more sites that provide alerts, I came across one I hadn’t known about: FoodManufacturing.com. Just in the past few weeks, they’ve put out alerts for a certain soup because of an error on the label, several brands of Vienna sausages, hot chocolate K-cups (it might contain peanut products), a pot roast meal, sprouts, frozen chicken entrees, popcorn, frozen manicotti, diced beef ... and more.

To look at their list, go to the site and click on the “Recalls/Alerts” tab. e Food Safety and Inspection Service arm of the Department of Agriculture issues alerts as well at www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls. Note the advanced search feature on the le side of the screen where you can lter by cause, risk level, states and more.

Food Safety (www.foodsafety.gov) provides information on the safe handling and storage of food.

Recalls.gov is another good site for recall notices. Click on the “Food” tab to see your online choices.

And what should I do with that recalled product I found in my freezer? I’m going to take it back to the store for a refund, of course.

On a sad note, did you see the Consumer Reports research on the amount of lead and cadmium in our favorite dark chocolate bars? Go to ConsumerReports.org and put “Lead and Cadmium Could Be in Your Dark Chocolate” in the search box.

Abraham Lincoln

InhonorofLincoln’sbirthday,here are13factsabouttheman.

1.Towering over others at a height of 6 feet 4 inches tall, Lincoln remains the tallest president to hold office. It is likely his stature helped to present an air of authorityduringhispresidency.

2. Lincoln had two romantic interests before he married Mary Todd in 1842. Lincoln was in a relationship with Ann Rutledge, who died of typhoid fever. He also courted Mary Owens for some time before they ended their relationship.

3. Lincoln was notoriously messy. His law office was often cluttered, much to the chagrin of his partner William Herndon. It is said Lincoln kept an envelope on his desk marked,“When you can’t find itanywhereelse,lookintothis.”

4.Lincolnwasthefirstpresidentto be photographed at his inauguration. His future assassin, John Wilkes Booth, can be seen in a photo standing close to the president.

5. In 1849, Lincoln obtained Patent No. 6,469 for a device that was designed to lift and keep boats afloat when they passed over a sandbar or entered shallow water. Lincoln served as a ferry operator and flatboat pilot prior to entering politics.

6. Lincoln took his dreams seriously and was purported to be interested in psychic research and activities. Before his election to the presidency, Lincoln said he was startled by a vision of a double image of himself. The second image was pale, according to accounts. His wife was led to believe the vision meant Lincoln would be elected to two terms as president and die during the second.

7. Lincoln’s beard is almost as famous as the man. He was urged by advisors to grow a beard during his first term to soften some of his harshfeatures.

8. Lincoln was born to Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks. Actor Tom Hanks is a distant relative of theformerpresident.

9. Despite his stature, Lincoln apparently had a high-pitched voiceandnotadeeptimbre.

10.Lincolnworeasize14shoe.

11. According to reports by his personal secretary John Hay, Lincoln would sometimes pace the White House because of insomnia. He would keep Hay up with funny stories or with readings of Shakespeare.

12.Lincoln accepted a challenge to a duel with James Shields, a state auditor. Lincoln chose a broadsword as the weapon, but Shields decided to work through his differences with Lincoln amicably rather than face him in theduel.

13. The contents of Lincoln’s pockets on the night he was killed were not revealed until February 12,1976.

WASHINGTON INSPIRED PRESIDENTS’ DAY

Established in 1800, Presidents’ Day once went by a different name. Known as Washington’s Birthday, which is still the legal name of the holiday, this day was meant to celebrate the first President of the United States, George Washington, whose birthday was February 22. Congress declared that day a federal holiday more than 200 years ago, and eventually the holiday grew to become a celebration of President Abraham Lincoln, who was born on February 12, as well. The holiday is now a celebration of the lives and accomplishments of every U.S. president.

38t Annual Pen-A-Poem CONTEST WINNER Andrea

e Snow Laden Rose

A pop of pink amidst bland sky

Something sweet, which brightens the eye

Perfumes so and powers healing

As I stare at my bleak ceiling

Restitution from bitter weather

Precludes me from feeling tethered

Your taste unique, your purpose romantic

Healing me, I am once more organic

e snow’s biting frost, the wind’s clamorous roar

e rose, a reminder, seasons I adore

When the sunshine is no longer

Your petals grow weak, my love grows stronger

Nothing good can last, that is life’s nature

Until spring appears once more, winter now a stranger

THINGS TO LOOK FOR IN A NEW JOB

Salary: Of course everyone would love to earn more money when changing jobs, but there is more to changing jobs than just improving your bottom line. As you begin your job search, consider how much you currently earn and if that allows you to live a life you love. If so, don’t overemphasize finding a new job that pays considerably more than your currently earn. On the flip side, young professionals who want to start a family in the years ahead should consider the costs associated with such a decision and how the salaries they earn at their next jobs may affect what they want down the road.

DID YOU KNOW?

Diamond engagement rings are presented as tokens of love and affection during wedding proposals. The majority of first-time brides will receive a diamond ring, with surveys indicating only 13 percent opt for another gemstone. Researchers from Emory University determined that the average price for a diamond ring is roughly $2,500. However, grooms can spend much more. Diamonds have symbolized eternal love for centuries, perhaps since they were first discovered in India more than 2,000 years ago. The ancient Greeks actually thought diamonds were tears of the gods, while ancient Romans believed diamonds were splinters from heavenly stars.

PITFALLS TO AVOID FALLING INTO DEBT

Too many accounts: A 2019 study from the credit reporting agency Experian found that the average American has four credit cards. Though many consumers can effectively manage that many cards, the more cards an individual has, the easier it can be to lose track of spending. More cards also means a greater potential for more debt, as each card has its own limit that is unrelated to the limits on other cards.
