WHAT SCHOOLS ARE DOING ABOUT CHILDHOOD OBESITY

Modifying school lunch offerings: Schools are taking inventory of not only the foods they offer on lunch menus, but also the feel of the cafeteria so that healthy eating is encouraged. This may include removing vending machines that contain unhealthy snacks or providing a greater array of offerings that include fresh fruits, whole grains and lean protein sources. Some schools also are investing in components, such as salad bars, to store, prepare and display healthy foods.

HOBBIES

THAT SUIT A SUMMERTIME VIBE

Gardening: Gardening is another hobby that coordinates well with a summertime vibe.Gardening gets people outdoors,giving them a chance to soak up some summer sun and engage in an activity that’s rewarding but not too physically demanding.One of the biggest attractions of gardening is that it can be enjoyed by people of all ages. That makes it an ideal hobby for busy families to enjoy together when their schedules slow down in the summer. It’s also a great way for adults to spend quality time with aging parents.

PLANNING AHEAD IS VITAL TO A SUCCESSFUL RENOVATION

Get necessary permits: Permits are designed to ensure the work is being done to code and in a safe manner. However, they are not without additional costs and processing time, and that can cause some homeowners to skip this step. According to the home information site The Spruce, building permits cost anywhere from $400 to about $2,200 for new home construction. Building permits for smaller projects can cost $100 or less, and typically are based on a percentage of the anticipated cost of the project. Apermitmaybeissuedthedaytheapplicationissubmitted,whileothercitiesandtowns may issue permits up to two or more weeks later. Factor permit fees and processing times into the renovation plan.

If it comes to light a homeowner did work without a required permit,he or she may face penalties; may have to tear out work done to have it inspected or redone; some may be unable to sell a home until permits have been obtained and work has been done to code. Homeowners insurance coverage also may be affected if homeowners do not obtain the proper permits.

REASONS TO SHOP FARMERS’ MARKETS

Foods at farmers’ markets tend to be limited to in-season offerings. Some nutritionists suggest eating seasonally available foods is better for your body, because humans ate seasonal produce for thousands of years before shipping and refrigeration changedhowpeoplereceivedthe majorityoftheirfoods.Inaddition, many people feel that fresh, seasonal foods taste better than thealternatives.

FACTORS TO CONSIDER BEFORE CONVERTING AN ATTIC

Climate control: Attics are converted to provide residents with more livable space. Converted space is only livable if the climate within the attic can be controlled so it’s cool in the summer and warm in the winter. An existing HVAC unit needs to efficiently heat and cool an extra room. If it can’t, bills might spike because the rest of the home likely won’t be as comfortable, forcing homeowners to adjust thermostats to offset that discomfort. That also could affect the unit’s life expectancy. Before going forward with an attic renovation, homeowners should contact HVAC professionals to determine if attic spaces can be serviced with the existing units and ductwork, or if an alternative arrangement must be worked out to make the spaces livable.

PEST CONTROL

PROTECT NATURAL BEE HABITATS

If you find a honey bee swarm on your property, contact a local beekeeperwhomaybeabletosafelycollectandrelocatethatswarmso itwillproducehoneyandprovidetheadditionalbenefitsassociatedwith healthy bees. People can also support beekeepers’ work by purchasing local honey. Not only does it keep jobs in the area, but some research also suggests that consuming local honey can help reduce seasonal allergies. WebMD says the practice is based on immunotherapy. Local honey contains traces of local pollen that may be responsible for seasonal allergies. Repeated exposure to small doses of this pollen might help bodies develop natural immunities.

ENJOYING THRILLS AT AMUSEMENT PARKS

One of the more beloved ways for thrill-seekers to spend a day off is to visit an amusement park. Amusement parks take many shapes. Some may be small, traveling carnivals, while others are large parks that draw visitors fromalloverthecountry.

Amusement parks typically feature hair-raising rides, games of skill, tasty food, and gift shops. That means there’s something for everyone.

Although they may seem like a relatively modern concept, amusement parks, fairs and carnivals actually have storied histories. In fact, historians say that carnivals and local fairs have been around since the Middle Ages. According to History.com, amusement parks, once dubbed “pleasure gardens” and “trolly parks,” sprung up across the United States and Europe in the 19thcentury.

Save money and stay cool as temperatures rise

Excessive energy bills can be a concern in spring and summer, just as much as they are in the winter. So how can you save money while keeping your home cool? The solution is simple: Top up your attic insulation.

A poorly insulated attic is a primary source of energy loss, forcing your AC unit to work harder than necessary over the warmer months. Most attics are insulated, but oftentimes the amount of insulation present is inadequate - especially in older homes. Over time, insulation can settle and compact, allowing heat to escape through gaps.

Topping it up is easy. Ideally, you want to aim for a depth of 16 inches of insulation for an overall R-value of 50. When existing insulation is present, simply level existing insulation to the top of the joist. Lay a fire- and moisture-resistant batt insulation on top of joists, running perpendicular to the first layer. Ensure batts are butted against each other tightly. Fit batts closely to cross joists; cut batt if necessary (this can be done easily with a serrated blade or bread knife) and leave no space between layers. Don’t forget to insulate the attic hatch to the same level as the rest of the attic. Apply weather-stripping to the edge of the hatch to reduce air leakage. Keep in mind that only IC-rated electrical fixtures can have insulation placed with zero clearance. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and local building code to insulate around the chimney.

When a house is insulated properly, energy savings can add up over time. Remember, insulation starts working the moment it is installed and can last for the life of the building.

Q&A Master Gardeners with the

We just had a large bank of solar panels installed. I would like to plant bee and butterfly friendly flowers under and behind the panels. I would prefer perennials and an assortment that would grow through the entire season. What would you recommend as this will be partially shaded most of the time?

I don’t know how large your solar panel area is, but I would start with a part of it so you don’t get overwhelmed. You will probably prefer planting self-seeding annuals because perennials are often more

difficult to start from seeds. If you take the time in fall to spread the dried seed heads every year, you might not need to replant.You could decide to add additional varieties. You can begin now by killing all existinggrowthbysmotheringitwith sheets of cardboard. Put this down soon while plants are still growing. I would wait until March to remove it. Sprinkle the seeds and go over them with a leaf rake to get better soil contact. Your first year you will plant the fewest seeds; subsequent years seeds from plants you have grown

will be plentiful.Some seeds will be eaten by critters over the winter,so I prefer early-spring planting the first year.

American Meadows offers a seed mix selected for part shade and instructions for creating this type of garden. More details are offered on YouTube, so you can get a better

feel for this project. You will need to periodicallyremoveinvadingweeds; a couple of times per year might be sufficient. These seed mixes are offered in a selection of sizes for smaller or larger areas.

(Family Features) Here are three things you can do to help protect your mobile devices and your identity: Password protect your device. A recent study by Javelin Strategy and Research found that even though many smartphones are being used to handle sensitive financial information, only 33 percent of smartphone owners password-protect their devices. If your phone falls into the wrong hands, you could make it very easy for someone to access your personal information and steal your identity.

Review your social network privacy settings. It’s not just advertisers taking advantage of the personal information you include on your social network sites. As the use of social networking continues to increase, it’s expected that the use of malware will rise, too. Cybercriminals are always looking for ways to steal information and money. So you need to review your privacy settings frequently, be careful of what apps you install, and never “friend” someone you don’t know.

Consider getting extra protection. There are a growing number of tools available to help you monitor and protect your identity as well as restore your name and credit, should your identity get stolen. For example, Mobile Rhino is a specialty insurance program that not only insures your device, but also offers an Identity Monitoring Service that alerts you of any changes that could indicate someone else is using your information.

CELEBRATE ENERGY STAR DAY - EVERY DAY

(NAPSI)—Every Fall, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) celebrates ENERGY STAR Day to raise awareness about the benefits of saving energy today, tomorrow, and for good. The typical household spends about $2,000 a year on energy bills. American consumers interested in saving money on their utility bills can look for the blue ENERGY STAR label to identify products—in categories such as electronics, appliances, smart thermostats, and lighting-that have been independently certified to use less energy. According to the EPA, outfitting your home with these products could save you 30 percent—or about $575—on your household energy bills, while avoiding more than 5,500 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. Utilities, product manufacturers, and retailers around the country join the celebration and offer special deals that help make energy efficiency accessible and affordable for everyone. In some communities, manufacturers of ENERGY STAR certified light bulbs work with electric utilities to provide low-cost LED bulbs at major discount and DIY retailers. For more information visit www.energystar.gov/SaveForGood.

Since 1992, ENERGY STAR and its partners have helped American families and businesses save nearly 4 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity and achieve over 3 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas reductions.

e Master Gardener Program is a national program of trained volunteers who work in partnership with their county CCE office to extend information throughout their communities.

Antique things have an appreciation and worth. Something can be old, but it can be timeless; therefore, it becomes an antique. If this antique is preserved and deemed precious, it could be passed down as a family heirloom.

Embrace eco-friendly activities. Various activities, from organic gardening to planting trees to beach cleanups, provide a great way to get outdoors and help the planet at the same time.Men and women who grow their own vegetables can take solace knowing that the vegetables they’re eating each night did not require the depletion of any natural resources to go from garden to table. Signing up for beach cleanups can prevent trash, including harmful plastics, from making its way into the world’s oceans, and such cleanups provide a great excuse to go to the beach.

INFLUENTIAL JAZZ MUSICIANS

Scott Joplin (c. 1868-1917): Born into a musical family that included his mother, a singer and banjo player, and his father, a violist, Scott Joplin grew up in Texarkana, learning to play the guitar and later the piano at a very young age. By the time Joplin was a teenager, he was working as a traveling musician and eventually became the foremost composer of ragtime jazz. Biography.com notes that Joplin was a true student of music, studying at the George R. Smith College for Negroes in Missouri during the 1890s. Though one of history’s most celebrated jazz musicians, Joplin also composed ballets and operas.

DID YOU KNOW?

According to a 2011 study published in the peer-reviewed journal the Annual Review of Nutrition, experimental data from animal studies suggests that maternal undernutrition among pregnant women may play a role in preterm birth. The study also reported that a lack of specific nutrients during pregnancy may influence gestation length by increasing the likelihood that a woman will give birth before reaching full-term. Women who are pregnant or hope to become pregnant can speak with their physicians about the role nutrition can play in a healthy, full-term pregnancy.

As Summer Turns to Fall, Turn to Your Local Libraries to Find Treasures

BY SUZIE WELLS

As summer winds down and children of all ages transition from summer to schooltime schedules, I wanted to explore some local treasures we may overlook. Libraries are an essential hub of any community, and librarians from Brighton, Fairport, Mendon, and Webster shared their insights.

e library has become a space where families, kids, teens, and adults come together to explore the world of books and enjoy exciting events and activities together. Offering a wide array of materials for patrons to borrow, including books, movies, CDs, magazines, newspapers, audiobooks, video games, even mobile hotspots and electronic devices, and passes to local attractions, libraries provide communities a wealth of materials and opportunities.

All librarians I interviewed raved about this year’s Summer Reading Program, keeping children, teens, and adults reading all summer long.

Elissa Schaeffer, Children’s Services Manager of Brighton Library, raves about their summer Cupcake Wars and Escape Room events as well as their ursday music program, especially the RPO’s Instrument Petting Zoo, and live animal experiences. Brighton Library has a wide array of events and activities throughout the year. Check out their website at brightonlibrary.org for current offerings.

Anna Lippincott, of Fairport Library, says their weekly Gazebo Concert series with Perinton Recreation Dept was a hit this summer, as were specialty art programs. Fairport Library has exciting programs and title releases year-round, so stay-tuned at fairportlibrary.org. Anna particularly loves their trivia events, Murder Mystery Movie series, and Brown Bag Book Reviews. e Friends of Fairport Library own and operate e Cornerstore Bookstore above the library and the Book Bin inside the library, and they coordinate the FROST partnership to deliver books and library materials to those who love to read but can’t get to the library.

Kelly Paganelli, Children’s Librarian at Mendon Library, says their summer and year-round activities have been such fun. From story times to music, cra , teen, or adult program, there’s something for everyone. Firefly Friends continues to be a hit with the younger set and their caregivers. Check out their upcoming Health RX series and Tuesday Travel Talks. Kelly says there are so many new books on the shelves, but they’re “way more than just books.” For the latest news and events, visit mendonlibrary.org.

Webster Library patrons love the Candyland, Rainbow Fun, and Friendship camp, as well as the summer reading program for all ages. is fall, check out the Fall book sale, Latin Dance night, evening family programs such as Family Night, PJ Storytime, and Make it Mondays. Webster Library’s Ketsia Mari says, with “Mobile Wi-Fi units, experience kits, VIP and Empire passes, curbside pickup, and tech tutors, the library has something for everyone!” Check them out at websterlibrary.org.

Even in this largely digital age, public libraries stand as sanctuaries for meaningful connections, growth, and shared experiences. It’s where stories come alive, friendships form, and exploration thrives. Whether a library enthusiast or newcomer, step into your local library for a journey that transcendsgenerations,offeringdiscovery,growth,andendlesspossibilities.

Kelly Paganelli says, “We want everyone to feel welcome and comfortable here. Please come by and see what we offer and if you want something, please ask.” If one library doesn’t have something you need, chances are the librarians can find it through the county system.

HOW TO KEEP OUTDOOR LIVING AREAS SAFE

Use an appropriate extension cord. String lights above outdoor living spaces like decks and patios can create a warm, relaxing nighttime vibe. Those lights need to be plugged in,which increases the risk for electrical accidents.When utilizing an extension cord outdoors, never use a cord designated for indoor use. Outdoor extension cords are better insulated than cords made for indoor use. That insulation provides better protection against the elements, including sunlight, changes in temperature and moisture. When using an extension cord outdoors, make sure the cord is secured and not left lying on a deck or patio where it can easily become a tripping hazard.

PAW’S CORNER

Keep dogs leashed on the trail

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Can we talk about people on hiking paths who let their dogs run off-leash? I’m getting increasingly frustrated at the number of loose dogs that run up to my dog, Chester, when we’re out for a day hike. Since the pandemic, it seems to happen much more o en. I keep my dog on a leash because he’s big, boisterous and could knock an adult down if he took off running. Why can’t other people do the same? -- Bev in Stoneham, Massachusetts

DEAR BEV: I hear you! As a hiker myself, I get the appeal of going out to wild spaces. And I love bringing my dog along. But she stays on her leash. It’s not just the right thing for dog owners to do, it’s the law in most state parks. Some federal parks don’t even allow dogs or other pets, o en because of fragile ecology.

Hikers, check the rules of the park or wildlife area you’re planning to walk through before leaving home. Even if there are no rules about dogs, keep your dog on a leash. Not only will it protect your dog from encounters with unappreciative wildlife (like skunks, rattlesnakes and porcupines), it will also protect other hikers and their dogs from injury and undue stress. Not all dogs on the trail are friendly or well-socialized.

And finally, pick up your dog’s poop and carry it out with you. Yes, it’s gross. But it preserves the beauty and ecology of the park. And it’s the right thing to do.

GREAT WEDDING GIFT IDEAS

Experience: Many people have embraced gifting an experience instead of an item to their loved ones. Some companies even facilitate such gifts to newlyweds. Websites like Traveler’s Joy allow couples to establish honeymoon registries, building them with activities and experiences they hope to enjoy on their trips. Loved ones can then gift money toward those activities, providing a win-win situation for people who would prefer to gift an experience and ensuring couples’ honeymoons will be that much more memorable.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Spinal Cord Injury

Misdiagnosed as Blood Pressure Stroke

DEAR DR. ROACH: Have you ever heard of a “low blood pressure stroke”? That was my husband’s (incorrect) diagnosis several years back when he suddenly could not move his arms and legs. He was told that not enough oxygen was getting to his spine. (His blood pressure is historically low, usually around 90/60.)

That lasted about seven months, and he was bedridden the entire time. He then went to a neurosurgeon and was (correctly) diagnosed with a spinal cord injury. He had C1-C2 surgery and had use of his limbs the next day. After months of physical therapy, he regained a lot of function. We’ve never heard of that diagnosis before or after his experience. Does it really exist? -- E.S.K.

ANSWER: The brain has tremendous ability to regulate its own blood flow under a very wide range of blood pressures, but there are some limits. When a person is used to very high blood pressure levels, such as 200/110 for months or years, a sudden drop to 90/60 (or even 120/80 sometimes) can cause a stroke. That’s the main reason we don’t lower blood pressure too quickly in people who have had very high blood pressure levels for a long time. It takes weeks or months for the brain to recover its ability to regulate blood flow.

In a person who has a heart attack, prolonged low blood pressure (or no blood pressure) will also cause brain damage. That’s why starting CPR as quickly as possible is so critical in order to preserve brain function.

In both of these cases, not enough blood is getting to the central nervous system (the brain, the spinal cord and the retinas), which can lead to cell death -- the hallmark of a stroke. But these are extreme cases.

A healthy person whose normal blood pressure is around 90/60 is at risk for fainting when suddenly standing; however, they are at a lower-than-average risk for heart disease and stroke. The diagnosis of “a low blood pressure stroke” for your husband doesn’t make any sense at all to me, and advanced imaging of the brain should have made it abundantly clear that it was not the right diagnosis. I’m shocked that he wasn’t treated correctly for that long. But I’m very happy to hear that his neurosurgeon did not assume the diagnosis of a stroke, instead making the correct diagnosis and performing the procedure to help him recover. Your husband is fortunate that he still had neurological function to recover after such a long time, since spinal cord injuries generally heal better when treated promptly. ***

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu.

Here’s a tip

* When I need to dust the ceiling, I don’t have a fancy contraption; I just use my broom. If you have popcorn ceilings, you can rubber band a feather duster to the end of your broom. Look around your house, and maybe you’ll find a sneaky cleaning purpose for everyday items.

* Dirty candles can be cleaned up quickly with a leg of panty hose. Slip the candle in the hose, rub the outside of the candle and release.

* You can use a coffee filter to clean the screen of your television. It’s not scratchy and non-static. Be sure not to press down hard into today’s screens. And use only approved cleaners for your flatscreen and plasma television sets.

* Need to clean your iron? Scrub the face with salt. en heat it and run the iron over the salt. I pour the salt on foil for even more heat effect.

Puzzle Answers This Week

With Much Gratitude

A huge thank you to the woman in line behind me at the Geneseo Wegmans last Wednesday. I inadvertently left my credit card in another wallet, and even though the cashier said they would put my order aside while I went home to get my card, you insisted on paying for my groceries. At 94 I am grateful for each day, and for people like you.

Angels DO exist among us

While shopping on August 26, I took a nasty spill outside of Target in Webster. It resulted in some cuts and abrasions and was witnessed by a woman and her son whom I consider to be true angels. They helped me to a bench in the store and got some wet paper towels for the bleeding and stayed as the store manager and security talked with me, patched my wounds, and filled out an accident report. She filled out a witness report. I thanked her over and over for all they did. I continued with some shopping and as I was checking out, she approached me with a bag with home medical supplies and a get well card and gift card to help me feel better. Her kindness and support blew me away and I forgot to get her first name. So, this is a huge thank you shout out to her and her son for being angels beyond what anyone would normally do. I intend to pay your kindness forward and it is encouraging to know you and others like you care in an ever-increasingly greedy world. Thank you again and always.

Excuse me! Genesee Valley Penny Saver!

Seniors are not the only ones who need to watch for school buses, their lights, children, etc.! I resent being selected as one who does not drive safely. If you drive at all, you will have seen drivers running red lights, tailgating, passing illegally and speeding. Roads are a very dangerous place to be these days. I wish there were more traffic cops to deal with these reckless drivers. Driving a car is a privilege, not a right owed to anyone. So please, GVPS, how about tending the cautionary note to all drivers and not just seniors?

(A note from GVPS: Sorry if it looked like we were addressing this message only to seniors. We had a note for everyone on the front cover about watching out for buses with the start of school, but this particular piece ran in the Active Living 50+ page and that’s why it was addressed to seniors. We’ll do our best to catch this kind of thing in the future as the message is important for all. Thanks for pointing it out!)

Handicap parking

At a local Labor Day Festival, I had a scuffle with some people over handicap parking. My wife is recovering from a stroke, but the handicap parking lot at this festival was completely full, with several cars lacking handicap plates or hangers. I confronted some people at one of these cars about parking for my wife, and received a rage-filled obscenity-laced refusal to move. Fortunately a police officer came over to de-escalate the situation. But it turned out that one of these people really was handicapped, and he said he couldn’t find his hanger. Yet he “found” it very quickly when the police officer spoke to him. Then I tried to apologize to the man and received more of the same anger and rage.

People, if you have a handicap hanger, use it, and please don’t argue with someone who stands up for handicap rights. If you aren’t handicapped, please don’t take parking spaces from the people who really need them.

Everyone has memories of school picture day — picking out the perfect outfit, working hard to achieve a hairstyle, and practicing your best smile. Picture Day documents milestones and captures memories that parents and kids will hold for many years. These photos become a collection that shows a child’s growth from a wide-eyed preschooler to a proud senior.
