FACTORS TO CONSIDER BEFORE INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE

Condition of the property: Product shortages were another trend to emerge during the pandemic, and disruptions to the supply chain will not necessarily go away anytime soon. In addition, the cost of various products associated with home improvements, including lumber, skyrocketed during the pandemic. The National Association of Home Builders noted that while lumber prices declined in 2021, the price of lumber packages quoted to builders remained high.That means real estate investors who invest in properties that will need work could be forced to pay a lot to fix these properties. And ongoing supply chain issues could extend the time it takes to renovate a property. Investors must be able to bear these costs and lag times to make the most off their real estate investments.

MAKE EASTER EGGS LAST

Families gather on Easter to participate in many different traditions that have been passed down through time. One such tradition is coloring Easter eggs. Millions of eggs are harvested and sold this time of year to be included in Easter festivities. However, soon after egg hunts have been completed and family dinners are brought to the table, those colored eggs may be relegated to the trash. When colored with foodgrade dyes, such as those manufactured and readily available around Easter, the eggs remain safe to eat. Colored eggs that are stored in a refrigerator can last up to a week if their shells remain intact. Peeled eggs may last up to five days, says the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service. Once eggs are boiled and dyed, they should be promptly put into the refrigerator to keep them fresh and edible. It’s adviseable to use plastic, wood or papier-mâché eggs for Easter egg hunts, as eggs made of such materials will not spoil. Otherwise, hide and refrigerate hardboiled eggs if this task can be completed within two hours. After that time frame, the eggs have the potential to spoil. By eating colored eggs, you can reduce waste and add a tasty appetizer to Easter meals.

SPRING CLEANING PROJECTS YOU DON’T WANT TO FORGET FURNITURE: It’s easy to overlook furniture when tackling spring cleaning, but dust and dirt can quickly accumulate on couches and chairs over the course of winter. When possible, vacuum furniture to remove any debris that might have accumulated while windows and doors were kept shut, and shampoo any cushions or seat covers that don’t pass the smell test.

HOW TO FIX THAT STICKING DOOR

Nearly everyone has experienced a sticking door that just will not close properly. This problem may become more noticeable when temperatures rise and humidity contributes to the swelling of wooddoorsandframes.

According to The Family Handyman, a home improvement resource, the standard remedy for alleviating a sticking door is to remove the door and pare down the edges that are rubbing so that the door will once again swing freely. While this can solve the problem, it can be a hassle, as it requires refinishing the pareddown edge and rehanging the door. Try these shortcuts first before creating more work than mightbenecessary.

• Identify the problem area and rub it with a dry bar of soap. This should reduce friction and allow the door to close more easily.

• Remove humidity with a dehumidifier or by running an airconditioningunit.

• Check for loose hinges or sagging around the hinge. Tighten the fasteners to sure up the door and create better alignment.

• Spray the hinges with lubricant if you suspect sticking is originating because of squeaky hinges.

• Look for obstructions at the bottom of the door. Is the door dragging on carpeting or being caught on something on the floor? It may be a matter of simply clearing away the obstruction.

The PathStone Weatherization Assistance Program is available for income-eligible households in Monroe County located outside of the city limits.

Finding the right family car

Family size: The size and potential size of the family also must be considered before buying a new car. Kids grow up and get bigger, and parents who want to have more children down the road should consider just how big they want their family to be before buying a new car.Look for a car that not only suits your family now, but one that will cater to your family’s needs down the road as well. Overlooking this important factor now may force you to replace the car you ultimately buy sooner than you had hoped.

STRANGE BUT

By Lucie Winborne

* Banks employ therapists known as wealth psychologists who help ultra-rich clients unable to mentally cope with the guilt they feel over their immense wealth, advise on inheritance issues and counsel parents on how to raise children who aren’t spoiled by money.

* Tyromancy is the practice of predicting the future with cheese.

* Hershey’s Kisses take their name from the kissing sound deposited chocolate makes as it falls from the machine to the conveyor belt.

flatbread (optional) pita chips (optional)

Heat oven to 350 F.

Drain onions well; pat dry. Spray shallow, oven-proof dish (34-cup size) with nonstick cooking spray. Place onions in dish. Press with spatula to flatten and crush. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon tomatoes, garlic, 2 tablespoons basil and black pepper, to taste. Drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon oil. Cut goat cheese into 6-8 rounds. Arrange over onion mixture. Sprinkle with remaining tomatoes; drizzle with remaining oil. Sprinkle with herb seasoning, if desired. Bake uncovered 20-30 minutes, or until cheese is soft and mixture is bubbly. Sprinkle with remaining basil. Serve warm with crackers, flatbread or pita chips, if desired.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* Thawing frozen water pipes can be very tricky. Some people use a hot pad wrapped around the pipe; others have been known to use the hair dryer method (electricity and water don’t really mix; be careful). Hopefully you learned any lessons the easy way this winter, but if you had to patch any pipes, make sure you get them repaired asap. Sometimes people forget as soon as the weather turns nice. -- A plumber in Illinois

* When drilling holes in the wall, you can tape an envelope, open side out, to the wall just under where you will be drilling. Open the envelope up a bit so that any dust will fall directly down into the open envelope. It will keep your working area nice and neat!

* To make a special quilted keepsake, sew together baby’s receiving blankets.

* Want a delicious coating for chicken? Try basting with mayonnaise and then dip in crushed crackers. The crumbs stick well to the mayo, and it’s especially delicious with crushed butter crackers, like Ritz.

Dog’s Driveway Poop Is a Bone of Contention for Neighbors

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My nextdoor neighbor shares a driveway with me. We get along ne, organizing our cars so no one is blocked in. However, every morning she walks her dog up the side of the driveway and doesn’t pick up a er it. I’ve asked her to do so, but she said that since it’s her side of the driveway she has the right to let him poop there. What can I do to solve this? -- Stunk Out in Bradenton, Florida

DEAR STUNK: Neighbor disputes over dog droppings are always a bit nerve-wracking, especially when the o ending neighbor asserts their right to leave a mess.

* When washing stockings by hand, add a tablespoon of vinegar to the rinse water. They will keep the stretch better. Also, if you line-dry them outdoors, slip a spoon or a few coins into the toe. This will keep them from twisting up in the wind.

* If you, like me, are washing your winter sweaters to pack away, add a bit of hair conditioner to the rinse. Also, don’t try to pull them into shape when drying. Just lay flat to dry. If you have a screen, you can set it up so that the sweater dries from both sides. This is best.

-- D.Y. in Kentucky

Check your neighborhood homeowners association rules to see if this issue is addressed. If you don’t live in an area with an HOA, check out your city or county’s website to nd out if there are any restrictions for this sort of behavior, and if it’s possible to le a complaint.

Even though your neighbor is keeping the dog on her side of the driveway, it’s shared property. Further, dog poop le lying around, even on the edge of the driveway, is a health hazard. Not to mention how ick it is for anyone who parks on that side and accidentally steps out onto one of those “gi s.”

No matter what, don’t lose your cool. Stay civil toward your neighbor. Keep asking her to pick up a er the dog, and note down the date and time of each interaction and each time poop is le behind. Take pictures with your phone as well. If the issue can’t be resolved by politely asking, you’ll need to le a complaint with the HOA or your municipality, and may have to provide evidence (notes and pictures, not the actual poo) to back up your complaint.

RAVES

Space

While someone is collecting mail at their mailbox, is there any reason you can’t move over so as not to “buzz” them? There were no other vehicles except yours in either direction. The rain just stopped, so as you passed the road spray got me. There was no reason you couldn’t have move over a couple feet. Do you expect people to jump back into their driveway until you pass? You crested the hill pretty quick doing 30 to 40 mph. I was in the shoulder but fairly close to the road. It’s called consideration. Class. Then again, some just refuse to look further than the tip of their nose.

Our local town has a certain Senior/Disabled complex that has been in major need of repaving for years! Potholes as large as basketballs – and putting caution cones out isn’t fixing the problem. Isn’t it the owner’s responsibility to make these repairs in a timely manner so it is safe for their tenants? I can only imagine the damage cars get. Do you think our low-income residents can afford costly repairs? I can’t, and refuse to deliver there anymore. Plus, during the winter there is no access to sidewalks.

Clean up after the storm

Thank you to the neighbor who thought she went unnoticed quickly cleaning up the massive branches the recent windstorm knocked down in my yard. I'm not as able as I used to be, so it was such a blessing to have the yard cleaned up. Your good deed did not go unnoticed. Karma will reward you. Thank you.

Thank you to the Victor Fire Department for responding to our call on Sunday night. After dinner, our gas stove top would not stop ‘clicking’ like it wanted to ignite. You all arrived immediately and turned our gas and electricity connections off and then checked the house for carbon monoxide. Your team was there for quite some time and we really appreciate everything you did to make sure our family was safe!

Disgusting Garbage

Just because we have wooded road frontage on [local street] in [local town] doesn’t make it a garbage dump! To the person(s) who have thrown used adult diapers along our frontage for the past year- PLEASE STOP! I have disposed of over a dozen of your used diapers in the past year. At least recently you took the care to put two diapers in Ziplock bags. Thank You! If you can’t afford a garbage service please consider dumping your diapers in the garbage cans at gas stations dumpsters, or most stores have refuse cans at the entrance. This is a disgusting practice. Stop it.

HOMES FIGHT FIRES THE LONGEST (NAPSI)—Firefighters

BRICK

report that it takes about an hour and a half for a fire to breach a brick home-as compared to fiber cement in under an hour and vinyl siding in just minutes.

Choosing brick exteriors to protect their own firehouses, firefighters say brick homes help slow the spread, offering the extra few minutes to help save lives and property as this brief video shows.

While the International Residential Code (IRC) does not require cladding on singlefamily homes to have a fire rating,the International Building Code (IBC) acknowledges that fired-clay brick has tested to provide a minimum one-hour fire resistance rating alone, regardless of backing material.This is something that synthetic materials—such as fiber cement—cannot claim.

Primarily made of clay, brick is classified as a noncombustible material that will not burn, melt or combust.

In a one-hour severe fire test conducted independently for the Brick Industry Association (BIA), vinyl siding burned after only 18 minutes, fiber cement failed within one hour and fired-clay brick withstood the flames after one hour. The test was conducted in accordance with ASTM E119, the Standard Test Methods for Fire Tests of Building Construction and Materials.

Learn More: BIA is the nationally recognized authority on clay brick construction representing the nation’s distributors and manufacturers of clay brick and suppliers of related products. To learn more, go to Fire Prevention at www.gobrick.com.

The term ‘jazz’ means energy, vitality, and enthusiasm that fits the soul of the music. It is originally derived from the word ‘jasm’ meaning spirit and energy.

UNFACTS

It ‘turns o ’ a part of the brain. According to research, jazz musicians, when improvising, turn o the dorsolateral prefrontal and lateral orbital regions linked to self-censoring and inhibition and switch on the medial prefrontal cortex that lets self-expression flow.

It was first compiled by musicians in African-American communities in New Orleans, Louisiana.

APPRECIATION MONTH

APRIL 2023

Jazz music is an enchanting blend of more than one ethnicity. It’s got the American and European interpretation of classical music that is spiced up with the influence of West African culture and folk songs. Jazz music has everything going for it — a melody that stays with you, the harmony that makes the notes sound fuller, a rhythm that beats with your heart, and the outstanding improvisations that set the genre apart.

Jazz cats and alligators Jazz musicians like to call themselves ‘jazz cats’ and before that, they addressed each other as ‘alligators’, or ‘gate’ for short.

SENIOR NEWS By

Matilda Charles

Food Prices to Rise Again this Year

Brace yourself, this is going to hurt: e price of all food is likely to go up an additional 7.9% this year. Food we eat at home is predicted to go up 8.6%, per the Economic Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Speci cally, here are some of their expectations for price increases: Eggs up 37.8% (we’ve already seen some of that), dairy up 7.2%, cereals and bakery up 12.8%, fresh vegetables up 3%. Here are some ideas to keep food on the table:

Design your menu from the weekly sales yer from your local store. Shop early before the sales items are gone. Stock up if you can on shelf-stable items and some multipurpose basics. ink: rice, pasta, soups.

Explore recipes online and search for inexpensive meals for seniors. You can even -- don’t laugh -- look up websites with recipes for poor college students. (Some of them are quite creative.) Look up “nutritionally dense foods” to ensure that you’re getting value for your shopping dollar.

Encourage your senior center (or even the rec center) to hold classes for seniors on how to put meals on the table without breaking the bank.

Call Meals on Wheels to see if you qualify for free meals. Use the food bank. Look up Commodity Supplemental Food Programs (CSFP) for your state and see if you qualify for a free food box each month.

Ask your doctor if you should take a daily vitamin supplement to get you through this period where your nutrition might not be the best. Good nutrition is a big part of staying healthy.

Something Magical is in the Air: Fairy Godmothers of Rochester is at Marketplace Mall through March

BY JODY LYNN GREER

It’s almost Spring, and many young adults are getting ready to celebrate the time of year they will remember for a lifetime. Prom is an essential rite of passage for many American youths, but for countless teens, this important transition to adulthood is out of reach due to poverty. Many low-incomefamiliestoday ndtheaccessibilityofincorporating an a ordable dress, shoes, and accessories into their everyday budget as likely as a real-life Cinderella attending the ball a er meeting her fairy Godmother.

Fortunately for them, “Fairy Godmothers of Rochester” has something to o er everyone, because they believe no one should miss out on the magical and once-in-a-lifetime feeling of attending Prom. For those in Rochester and Upstate NY, you don’t have to believe in fairy tales to understand that “fairy godmothers” really do exist.

Created in 2004 by Rene Spallina and Cynthia Jackson a er being inspired by an episode of Oprah, “Fairy Godmothers of Rochester” has formatively changed throughout the years. Volunteer Lynne Fiero explains, “It used to be a one-day prom fair at the Convention Center, but now that we have the space at MarketspaceMall,volunteerssignupfordi erentshi sthrough March. It’s all volunteers.” A er Spallina recently stepped down and Cynthia Jackson relocated to the West coast, leadership passed to partners Ami Salzman and Lynne Fiero to carry on the remarkable mission of Fairy Godmothers of Rochester.

Housed in the former “Limited” space at Marketplace Mall across from Spencer’s, young women eagerly wait in line every Wednesday a ernoon and Saturday throughout March. Upon arrival, girls check in and are assigned a friendly volunteer who will help them nd the dress of their dreams. e enthusiasm in the room is palpable as each volunteer carefully escorts each young woman throughout the challenging process of seeking the right look and accessories, with no shortage of diverse and appealing size-friendly options.

Fiero says, “At this point, close to 40% of our inventory is brand new. We do have some guidelines for our donations, and

they do have to be fairly modern. We get a lot of donations of bridesmaids gowns, and they’re quite beautiful. We have a lot of young ladies that are looking for a simpler style. We only put on the racks beautiful dresses we think will appeal to today’s teenagers. We also range from size zero to thirty. It’s nice to have that range of shopping that they might not get in department stores.” Shades of every color line the perimeter of the store. No matter a young woman’s preferred style, she is likely to nd a dress to compliment her gure and her budget.

e process from start to nish is heartwarming and rewarding for both volunteers and the young women that enter the store. Without Fairy Godmothers of Rochester, these young ladies likely would not attend prom. Once a dress is chosen, young women are also given the opportunity to choose an accessory of their liking. A variety of options are available from shawls to purses, bracelets, earrings, and more. Every step of the way, special care is taken to make sure these young women feel comfortable and at ease. Before leaving, each young lady is given a handbag of free goodies o ering an assortment of products provided by Continental Beauty School and other beauty suppliers.

e mission of Fairy Godmothers of Rochester means so much more than being able to attend prom. is communitybased volunteer program encourages young women to feel con dent and secure with themselves. While these volunteers may not be fairy godmothers out of a beloved fable, their enthusiasmandcompassionknownoboundariesandisnothing short of “magical.” If you would like to learn more about Fairy Godmothers of Rochester, visit fairygodmothersrochester.org.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Longtime Cannabis User Still Tests Positive Weeks After Quitting

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 68-year-old male who has used cannabis for 51 years. During that time span, I graduated from high school and college with two bachelor’s degrees and two master’s degrees, and I spent 35 years as an accomplished educator, motivational speaker and author. I have been married to the same person for 31 years and have a wide circle of friends.

Twenty-five years ago, I had my thyroid removed due to cancer, and I currently take medication. I also inject testosterone and take medications for blood pressure and cholesterol, as well as Xanax. I retired to a life that involves little travel, choosing instead to spend my time reading, researching, writing and being active in my community. Once I began to notice a loss of motivation and diminished memory, I became proactive and decided to give up cannabis.

I have had no trouble quitting cold turkey and have no desire to return to it. My memory has vastly improved, and I still enjoy all the things that made my retirement enjoyable before I made this decision. After 10 weeks of not using, I still test positive for the metabolites using THC testing strips. I have read that normal detoxing for a heavy user is anywhere from six weeks to two months.

To aid in the process, I drink half a glass of lemon juice in the morning, drink two gallons of water or detox tea a day, cut red meat and dairy from my diet, spend an hour a day on the treadmill, and spend 40 minutes in a steam bath. How long should I expect to continue testing positive? Is there anything else I can do to speed up the passing of the metabolites? -- Anon.

ANSWER: The active form of THC, the primary chemical in cannabis that causes the psychoactive effects (i.e., the effects for people to feel “high”), accumulates in the fat cells, where it can be stored for long periods of time.

Research in laboratory animals confirms that losing weight over the long-term releases the stored THC from the fat, making it more likely that a urine test will be positive in people who are losing weight (which might be the case with you, given your exercise and diet). Heavy users have told me that they feel like they are “coming out of a fog” for up to six months after stopping the use of cannabis. However, I can’t give you any evidence-based answer on how long you will continue to show positive results.

I don’t think drinking water and tea, nor the steam bath, are significantly helping you get rid of the accumulated THC in the body, but the diet and exercise changes probably are, if you are losing fat as I suspect. Even if you aren’t losing weight, you may be getting more muscular due to exercise and losing fat.

WORKING PARENTS CAN CREATE BETTER WORK-LIFE BALANCE

Many working parents struggle to maintain a healthy balance between their responsibilities at work and their obligations to their families. An inability to maintain that healthy balance can have adverse effects on men and women’s careers as well as the relationships they have with their families.

A 2015 survey of more than 2,000 adults commissioned by the workplace solution provider Workfront found that 38 percent of survey participants have missed life events because of a bad work-life balance. Access to technology that means work is never too far away might contribute to poor work-life balance, as 57 percent of respondents also acknowledged feeling that technology has ruined the definition of a family dinner.

Finding a healthy balance between work and life at home may require a concerted effort on the part of working parents, but there are ways to successfully juggle a career and family.

CONSERVE ENERGY AROUND THE OFFICE

Determine how much space you truly need. Current business owners and prospective owners can save substantial amounts of money and avoid wasting energy by giving ample thought to how much office space they truly need. Large office spaces may not be necessary for businesses that recently downsized staff, while those starting out may want to start in small spaces before upgrading to larger spaces if and when their businesses expand. Small business owners leasing their office space can speak with their leasing agents to determine if they can include a clause in their lease that allows them to move into larger spaces if the need arises before their existing leases expire.

WAYS TO SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES

Think of small business sponsorships when putting together school- or clubbased fundraisers.

DID YOU KNOW?

Holy Thursday, which falls on the Thursday before Easter Sunday, commemorates The Last Supper of Jesus Christ. During The Last Supper, Jesus,whoChristiansbelieveistheSonofGod,establishedthesacrament of Holy Communion. The Last Supper was the final meal Jesus enjoyed with his disciples in Jerusalem, and it was during The Last Supper when Jesus predicted one of those disciples would ultimately betray him. Holy Thursday is sometimes referred to as “Maundy Thursday,” a reference to the religious rite of maundy, which is the washing of the feet. The Last Supper and the rite of maundy are connected because it was during The Last Supper that Jesus washed the feet of his disciples. Though The Last Supper, during which Jesus gave his disciples bread, telling them it was his body, and wine, telling them it was his blood, is celebrated at every Mass as part of the Liturgy of the Eucharist, Holy Thursday Mass places even greater emphasis on this significant event.
