STEPS TO TAKE BEFORE AN APPRAISER’S VISIT

Clean the house. A dirty home that is full of clutter will not make the best impression on appraisers. Dirty homes may be vulnerable to insect infestations that can lead to structural problems with the home. While a dirty home is not necessarily an indicator of infestations or a reflection of a home’s value, a clean home will create a stronger first impression with the appraiser.

MOMENTS

* On March 13, 1781, English astronomer William Hershel discovers Uranus, the seventh planet from the sun. It was the first discovery of a new planet in modern times, and the first to be made using a telescope.

DID YOU KNOW? The American Heartworm Society advises dog owners to have their furry companions tested for heartworm annually. Such tests can typically be conducted during routine preventive care visits to the veterinarian. The AHS notes that such tests are necessary even for dogs that are taking year-round heartworm prevention medications. Tests can confirm that such programs are working or indicate if they are not effective. The American Veterinary Medical Association notes that antigen tests are the most commonly performed tests. These tests detect the presence of adult female heartworms and they are typically highly accurate. If a test is positive, veterinarians may recommend further testing, including radiographs, a blood profile and an echocardiogram. Such tests can determine a number of things about the infection, including its severity. The AVMA also notes that the additional testing can help determine the best course of treatment. Cat owners should know that it’s more difficult to detect heartworm in cats than in dogs. The AHS indicates that cats are much less likely than dogs to have adult heartworms, making the disease harder to detect in felines. Veterinarians may recommend cats receive both the antigen test and an antibody test, which detects exposure to heartworm larvae. The AVMA notes that more testing may increase the likelihood of detecting the disease in cats.

POST-WINTER GARDEN PREP

Assess plant location. If plants, flowers or gardens have struggled in recent years or never grew especially vibrant, then gardeners may want to assess the location of their plant life before spring gardening season begins. Some plants may not be getting enough sunlight in certain locations on a property, while others might be overexposed to the sun during spring and summer. Moving plants that are not thriving prior to the start of spring gardening season may be just what gardens need to flourish in the coming weeks.

Your Home

What’s the first step in sound proofing your home? Finding which rooms have the least amount of sound resistance.

To do this, make sure everyone is out of the house, unplug all electronics and close all doors and windows. Take a quick walk through your house and pause for a few moments in each room to evaluate which ones are the noisiest. Now consider if you’re installing a media room or teenage recreational room where volumes will be blasting on TV’s and stereos.

With this information, you should have a good idea of where you need to soundproof and create barriers against noise. Here are some tips to help you achieve the optimal result of peace and quiet:

• Plant trees and hedges along the exterior of your home, perhaps along a fence. Not only do trees and hedges help with the environment and provide a good amount of privacy, they also slow down the travel of noise from the neighborhood into your home.

• Insulate your walls and ceilings. Better insulation in your interiors and exteriors won’t just drive away excess noise, it will also reduce your heating and cooling bills during the hot and cold months.

• Seal up all cracks and holes around windows and doors, and add double glazed windows to your current glass panes.

PAVING & SEALING

DESIGN A GARDEN FOR ALL SENSES

The lively sounds of the garden are created by the wildlife that come to pollinate and enjoy the environment gardeners have created. By choosing indigenous plants, gardeners can be sure that insects and small critters will seek refuge within the foliage.

Songbirds also will add character to a yard. The Audubon Society suggests including a water source and a songbird border of shrubs along your property’s edge. Provide food sources and make sure they are located a fair distance from the main action of the yard so as not to scare off birds. Wait for musical chickadees, goldfinches, orioles, and cardinals to arrive and enjoy the accommodations.

FINDING THE RIGHT FENCING

Bamboo is a less traditional fencing option that may appeal to homeowners who want to do something that’s both different and eco-friendly. Bamboo grows naturally, which should appeal to homeowners who want their homes to have as little negative impact on the environment as possible. Bamboo provides ample privacy and comes in various styles. Homeowners should consult with a fencing specialist before choosing a style so they can be certain they choose the most climate-appropriate option.

clothing. To that point, pants that convert to shorts are ideal. Like shirts, pants should be stain-resistant.Additionally,the pants should have plenty of pockets (with zippers) to carry anything extra. If you don’t have access to a boat or dock, extend your fishing range with a good pair of fishing waders.

Here’s a Tip

• If you make your own broth, you can freeze cubes in easy-to-measure amounts by using your muffin tin. Measure out broth in half cup or cup amounts, then freeze. When done, pop them out into a freezer-safe baggie.

• Chrome is easily cleaned and shined up with vinegar. Keep a misting bottle in the bathroom to give handles a quick swipe a er getting ready in the morning or evening.

• Ice cream cones with a flat bottom make a great container for cupcakes. Fill cones two-thirds full with batter, bake as directed, and you have cupcake cones! Frost and go!

Hocus Focus

BY HENRY BOLTINOFF

Battery loses its charge. The battery in a vehicle is still being used even if the car isn’t running.Batteries power various components in a car,such as the vehicle computer,phone chargers and more. If the engine does not turn over and help to recharge the battery, the battery will eventually die. People who drive infrequently may want to consider a trickle charger that’s plugged in during periods of non-use.

A Total Solar Eclipse

occurs when the Moon passes directly between the Earth and the Sun, blocking the sunlight and casting a shadow on Earth. During a total solar eclipse, the Moon completely covers the Sun, and for a brief period, the day turns into night in the area covered by the Moon's shadow.

ere are 3 main parts of the shadow during a total solar eclipse: Umbra: e central, darkest part of the shadow where the Sun is completely obscured by the Moon. ose within the umbra experience a total eclipse.

Penumbra: e outer part of the shadow where the Sun is only partially covered by the Moon. ose within the penumbra experience a partial eclipse.

Antumbra: An extension of the umbra where an observer on Earth sees the Sun partially covered, making it look like a ring or annulus. is occurs during an annular solar eclipse.

Total solar eclipses are rare events because the orbits of the Earth, Moon, and Sun must align precisely for the Moon to completely block the Sun from our perspective on Earth. When it happens, observers within the path of totality can witness a spectacular celestial event where the Sun's outer atmosphere, known as the solar corona, becomes visible. is is an awe-inspiring sight and a unique experience for those lucky enough to be in the right location during the event.

Total Solar Eclipse Celebrating the APRIL 8, 2024

Put this on your bucket list and mark the date. Stand in the shadow of the moon!

Winner announced in our April 19th issue

FACTS: ABOUT THE SOLAR ECLIPSE

Rare Occurrence: Total solar eclipses are relatively rare events. On average, they occur somewhere on Earth roughly every 18 months, but each specific location may only experience a total solar eclipse once every few decades.

Viewing Safety: It’s essential to use proper eye protection when viewing a solar eclipse to prevent damage to your eyes. Specialized solar viewing glasses or eclipse glasses are necessary to safely observe the sun during the event.

Animal Behavior: During a solar eclipse, animals may exhibit unusual behaviors. Birds may return to their nests, thinking it’s nighttime, and nocturnal animals may become active.

Scientific Research: Solar eclipses provide scientists with valuable opportunities to study the sun’s outer atmosphere, known as the corona, which is typically obscured by the sun’s brightness. Researchers can observe and analyze the corona’s structure and dynamics during the brief period of totality.

Eclipse Chasers: Some enthusiasts, known as “eclipse chasers,” travel the world to witness solar eclipses in different locations. ey plan their travels meticulously to ensure they’re in the path of totality for the most spectacular views.

Little Leprechauns

FUN PAGE

Set your trap on St. Patrick’s Eve before going to bed. If you wake to find a treat in your trap, you caught a leprechaun!

1. Use a jar, box, or empty tissue box to build your Leprechaun trap.

2. Decorate your trap using rainbows, shamrocks, stickers, glitter or anything else you think might lure a leprechaun.

3. Create a trapping mechanism at the entry point of your trap. You can angle a stick or straw to prop open a trap door, or drape some felt over the top.

4. Build a ladder leading to your trap’s entry point using pipe cleaners or craft sticks.

5. Deposit some pennies, foil-wrapped coins or lucky charms inside your trap or on top of the felt as bait.

6. Set your trap before going to bed on March 16. Remember, a leprechaun will only visit while you’re sleeping.

7. Check your trap in the morning. Sneaky little leprechauns rarely stay trapped, but if you caught one who escaped, you might find he left behind a treat for you!

* On March 8, 1971, Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier meet for the “Fight of the Century” at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The bout marked Ali’s return after the boxing commission revoked his license over his refusal to fight in the Vietnam War. Frazier won by a unanimous decision.

* On March 9, 1981, a nuclear accident at a Japan Atomic Power Company plant in Tsuruga, Japan, exposes 59 workers to radiation. Sixteen tons of waste spilled into Wakasa Bay, but Japan’s Atomic Power Commission made no mention of the accident until more than a month later. By then, radioactive levels of seaweed in the area were found to be 10 times greater than normal.

Proton-Pump Inhibitors

Highly Recommended

for Barrett’s Esophagus

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a retired male over 65 and a former occasional cigar smoker. I quit 15 years ago after I was diagnosed with Barrett’s esophagus. I was also a former drinker and quit seven years ago. I regularly completed all the biopsies as required and took my proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) daily as instructed.

This year, I read an article about PPIs contributing to dementia and neuropathy, which I have. My primary care physician suggested that I switch to over-the-counter H2 blockers as a safer approach. I developed an irregular heart rhythm and soaring blood pressure. I was then diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AFib). My stress test and echocardiogram are normal for my age. I am now on some heavyduty beta blockers, blood thinners and a very expensive rhythmcontrol drug.

A book I recently read written by two top cardiologists stated that long-term use of PPIs is dangerous and can cause AFib, but a recent article published by the National Institute of Health states the opposite. I also read that an irritated esophagus stimulates the esophagus nerve and triggers AFib. I’m confused now.

Because Barrett’s vastly increases my chances for getting a very aggressive cancer, doing nothing is not an option. I have already modified and continue to modify my diet, but that only goes so far. And as I’m sure you are aware of, a stroke caused by AFib is often life-threatening.

My complicated question is, which professional approach would you recommend: PPIs or H2 blockers? Is there a third option? -- B.B.

ANSWER: There is not a definitive answer on whether PPIs, like omeprazole, increase the risk of AFib. Studies are potentially confounded by the fact that people with AFib sometimes think they have stomach problems and may take a PPI, leading to a false association between the PPI and AFib. As you say, there have also been studies that suggest a decreased risk of AFib in people who use PPIs.

In my mind, the increased risk of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus as a result of untreated stomach acid reflux in a person with Barrett’s esophagus is the key in this situation, as Barrett’s is a condition where abnormal lining of the esophagus occurs due to years of acid exposure.

I do not believe over-the-counter H2 blockers, like famotidine (Pepcid), are adequate enough to reduce the risk of esophageal cancer, so I advise patients in your situation to use PPIs, despite their known risks.

The data suggesting a risk of dementia are weak. While there might be a small risk, the risk isn’t high enough to avoid using a PPI in a person with Barrett’s. B12 deficiency is absolutely a risk in people taking long-term PPIs. Low B12 can certainly lead to neuropathy, but both can be prevented and treated by testing for B12 deficiency and by getting supplementation, if needed.

I am very glad to hear you are getting routine endoscopic surveillance and biopsies so that any abnormal growth of the esophagus can be identified and treated promptly.

KIDS AND SLEEP

School-aged children are busier than ever before, and some may be sacrificing sleep to accommodate their lifestyles. The National Sleep Foundation says school-aged children need between nine and 11 hours of sleep each night to function at a healthy level. Sleep deprivation can be linked to a host of health ailments, including issues affecting the development of the brain. Growing evidence suggests that lack of sleep can cause disturbances in metabolic rates that could affect the risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. A recent study from Johns Hopkins University found that, for each additional hour of sleep a child gets, the risk of that child becoming overweight or obese decreases by 9 percent. Children who slept the least, according to the research, had a 92 percent higher risk of being overweight or obese compared to children with longer sleep duration. The NSF adds that poor or inadequate sleep can lead to mood swings, behavioral problems and cognitive problems that impact kids’ ability to learn in school. To promote good sleep habits in children, parents and other caregivers can establish consistent sleep/ wake routines; ensure children avoid excess caffeine, particularly late in the day; create a cool, dark sleep environment; keep televisions and other media devices out of bedrooms; and help children work through stressors that may impact sleep.

Are you strong? It is easy to become scared of following Christ. Satan makes this easy for us. We depend upon ourselves to succeed, losing the very thing that keeps us strong in this world. “Have I not commanded thee? Be strong and of good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD our God is with thee whithersoever thou goest” Joshua 1:9. Sometimes we are overwhelmed and lose our way. Your Creator reminds you to remember His Promises in this verse, to not shrink away from your responsibilities and duties in life, but get strength from Him that you can’t buy in a pill or drink. If you want to remain weak, you can always depend on the Government. They always think of you!? Please take the wisdom given you. God Bless.

VENT BRIGHTER

As relayed to me:

On the very busy morning of Sunday, February 18th, at Wegmans Geneseo, an older gentleman’s cashier had rung up his large number of items, and he then discovered that he had forgotten his wallet. As he and the cashier tried to decide what to do, the woman behind him in line handed the cashier her credit card and very, very, generously rescued him. He protested, saying that he lived close by & could easily run home to get his wallet. She refused and just said “Pay it forward.”

Smoking areas in parking lots and shopping plazas

I’d just like to tell that woman that I have known that man for decades, and he has always been helping others with all kinds of issues, but he was truly surprised, and very grateful, to be on the receiving end that day. I know that he will definitely Pay it Forward.

Everyone smokes in [local] plaza. I walk to the grocery store there almost every day, and there is usually someone standing or sitting someplace smoking. Most employees from [the grocery store] smoke on their breaks and couldn’t care less about the non-smokers like myself who don’t want to smell the smoke. I have to go in the street and almost get run over. Legislation should say “No smoking, vaping, or using tobacco products in all shopping plazas, parking lots, etc.” They are too lax with this issue. The American Cancer Society got involved with [a company] and now they don’t sell cigarettes. However, other stores still sell them, which says it’s okay to smoke. [Another company] has signs in the windows saying “No Smoking,” but inside they sell cigarettes. More should be done.

German War prisoners

The Hometown Story in your January 19th issue reminded me of the experiences we had with German war prisoners. In the early 1940s, my parents contracted with the Heinz Co. to raise tomatoes. My mother, Anna, a German immigrant, and our neighbor’s 20-yr-old daughter drove the truck full of ripe tomatoes to the Hilton facility. My mother did not disclose that she was German when they arrived. As they unloaded the truck, the prisoners commented in German on the attractiveness of the young woman and speculated what she might look like without any clothes. In German, Anna said she would look like any of the girls they had at home. The prisoners were surprised and also happy to hear German. Much discussion followed about where they and she were from in Germany. They were glad the war was over for them and they were in the US rather than Russia. They felt they were treated and cared for quite well but missed family and friends back home.

Well Meaning Efforts with Poor Results

Many local residents are involved in helping feral cat colonies. For those unfamiliar, these people trap feral cats, have them spayed or neutered, and release them back to their colony. Some people provide the colonies with cat food. Their efforts come from their kind and loving hearts. I’ve owned pet cats for 29 years, and I’m ready to take off the rose-colored glasses and admit the feral cat colony concept is not working. Friends directly involved in colony support tell me there are always more cats coming in and restarting the flow of kittens. The constant drain on [humane society]’s resources (and others who offer spaying) is not the best use of funds. Cats are not part of our native ecosystem and the effect on our native bird populations is devastating. Walk outside anywhere and you’ll notice the vast decline in the number of birds. There are many factors against birds, but this is one we can control. This failed experiment needs to be replaced with humane euthanasia for feral cats.

IBee Constantino and Alex Hutchens Share Their Hearts and Talents with the Naples Community

BY SUZIE WELLS

n the heart of Naples, two young artists are making waves with their vibrant creativity and unwavering passion for their cra .

Currently displayed at Caruso’s Café and FLX Music is the work of Bailey (Bee) Constantino and Alex Hutchens, a dynamic duo whose love story intertwines with their artistic journey, bringing a fusion of talent that captivates the local community and beyond.

Bee’s journey in art began at a tender age, nurtured by her family’s artistic inclinations and her brother’s inspiration for individuality. Bee reminisces about days spent creating art with her mother, Michelle, whose paintings Bee admired all around their home. Her artistic awakening solidified during her teenage years, as she learned piano and then ukelele, playing music with her friends, including out in the community. In 2019 when a car accident broke her pelvis and ankle, Bee used art and music to cope with the PTSD.

Bee says she’s “always been in love with art,” particularly interested in tattooing. At 16, she met Alex Hutchens, who shares her love for art and tattoos, and since then, she’s been building her portfolio in hopes of an apprenticeship.

Bee’s favorite media is so core colored pencils, though she recently found interest working with oil and watercolor paints. “I love the vibrancy of colored pencils and seeing how opaque I can get it to look,” such as with spit shading techniques and select oil painting techniques.

Bee says anything with bright, vibrant colors, such as renaissance art, realism art, tattoos, and different textures and colors in fruits or nature, creates in her an urge to create art. She particularly finds inspiration in local artists at 1808 Tattoo Shop and other artists such as Dansville’s Wild Isley and TikTok realism artist Dylan Eakin.

Bee’s artistic process is a testament to her meticulous nature, putting a lot of heart, emotion, and time into each piece, practicing textures and undertones, layering colors, using different black and white pens, and carving away mistakes. She is so excited to share her art, and hopes it makes people feel something.

Whenever Bee finds herself in an artistic rut, she says she remembers her goals and aspirations, and “the thought of losing touch with my talents and wasting my time sends me back where I need to be.”

Bee advises aspiring artists, “Keep pushing for what you want. It takes a lot of hard work and can be a tough hobby, but it’s a rewarding one. It teaches patience and self-love. Don’t doubt yourself. Seeing artists online can be discouraging, but art speaks to people in many different ways; there’s always something to love about it.”

Complementing Bee’s artistic fervor is Alex, whose journey into the world of art took flight through doodles on completed school assignments and shared moments with his mother, watching artrelated TV shows. He says it wasn’t until he crossed paths with Bee in 2021 that his passion for art blossomed.

“Bailey saw potential in my art that I just considered doodles,” Alex recounts. He prefers working in graphite and colored pencil, but recently started exploring watercolor, saying Bee’s lessons on easy, fun ways to use color inspired him to now primarily draw in color.

Alex says when he doesn’t know what to draw, his go-to subjects are skulls, roses, snakes, and sharks, heavily inspired by the traditional tattoo style, and drawing those gets his creative juices flowing. Simply putting pencil to paper to doodle usually inspires him as well, and when he decides what he’d like to create, he goes for it. “ at’s o en when I have the most fun,” he says.

Alex’s advice for aspiring artists is simple: “Be bold. Ask for help, listen closely, and shoot for the stars. You are only limited by your own imagination and ambition.” Alex finds the 1808 Tattoo team to be “amazing artists and awesome people,” and he also finds inspiration in artists, Pacoway and Wil Shrike.

As they continue to carve their paths in the world of art, Bee and Alex remind aspiring artists and the community to boldly embrace their creativity and to never shy away from pursuing their dreams. With their talent and determination, this artistic duo leaves an indelible mark on the art scene in Naples and beyond.

Check out Bee and Alex’s artwork at Caruso’s Café and FLX Music in Naples. ey are so excited to share their art with the community and are so excited to see where the future leads them.

Homemade Treats

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My new puppy’s training is going very well, and he responds very well to rewards of little treats. I worry about feeding him so many processed, store-bought snacks though. What are some natural or homemade alternatives for treats? -- Maggie T., Nashua, N.H.

A: Many alternative recipes for homemade doggie treats are available on the internet and at the bookstore, but the healthiest ones share many common features. is means that you can find quite a few good recipes out there, or develop a few of your own.

Common ingredients in dog treats are meat protein (either from fresh meats, broths or strained baby foods), whole-grain flours (like wheat, oats, corn or rice), eggs and powdered supplements (like brewer’s yeast or garlic). A variety of flavorings can be added, including peanut butter, sugar or molasses, vanilla, salt, and small amounts of cheese or milk. Dry or instant yeast can be added to biscuit-type recipes, to allow the dough to rise before baking.

A popular training asset is liver treats, which can be made fairly easy and which last about four to five days if stored properly (in an airtight container and refrigerated). Chicken livers, eggs and sweetener are pureed, flour or cornmeal is mixed in (some owners add powdered supplements as well) and the mixture is baked, cooled and sliced into bite-size treats.

Certain foods are never safe for dogs, so don’t use any recipe that contains these ingredients: chocolate, onions, raisins/grapes or macadamia nuts. ey seem like fairly innocent foods, but can cause serious health problems in dogs.

Baking and testing these snacks out on your puppy can be a lot of fun. Remember, you can also share recipes with other dog owners and perhaps find the perfect treat for your companion.

ENJOY IRISH COFFEE THIS ST. PATRICK’S DAY

St. Patrick’s Day is synonymous with many things, most notably the jovial atmosphere of the various events celebrating both the life of St. Patrick and Irish culture.

New York City’s St. Patrick’s Day celebrations are known for the Big Apple’s impressive parade up Fifth Avenue, while few who have partaken of Patty’s Day festivities in Chicago can forget the green Chicago River. Celebrations may vary from city to city, but it’s a good bet that celebrants will hear some traditional Irish music, enjoy a pint of Guinness and/or join the masses wearing green wherever they end up this St. Patrick’s Day. Drinking Irish coffee is another St. Patrick’s Day tradition many revelers enjoy. Few may indulge in Irish coffee throughout the year, but this special concoction can be a great way to warm up after attending a St. Patrick’s Day parade in the often chilly March temperatures.

Cocktails made with coffee date back quite far, but Irish coffee does not have to go back too far to trace its history. In the mid-20th century, chef Joe Sheridan was working in Foynes, County Limerick when a group of United States-bound travelers found themselves stranded due to inclement weather that grounded their plane. Whether he was trying to warm them up or wake them up after their ordeal, Sheridan served the passengers coffee with a little bit of Irish whiskey mixed in. When the group inquired as to what they were drinking, Sheridan reportedly told them, “that’s Irish coffee.”

GET A HANDLE ON WORK-RELATED STRESS

Take more time off. According to the “State of American Vacation 2016” report from Project: Time Off, American workers failed to use 658 million vacation days in 2015. Vacation is not just a time to get away, but a valuable, effective way for workers to recharge. The APA notes that avoiding the negative effects of chronic stress and burnout requires workers to take time away to replenish and return to their pre-stress level of functioning. Taking time off to disconnect from work and avoid thinking about work can be just what workers need to overcome their work-related stress. And plenty of workers have the time to take off; they just need to take it.

RELOCATING FOR A NEW JOB

Emphasize organization. Much of the stress associated with relocating can be traced to the logistics of uprooting oneself and one’s family. Men and women who are unaccustomed to making lists may want to start, as doing so can help keep track of all the tasks that need to be completed before hitting the road. Various unique tasks, from canceling utilities to changing insurance policies, must be completed before moving, and it’s easy to lose track of what’s been done and what hasn’t. Maintaining a to-do list and checking off tasks as they’re completed can simplify the relocation process.
