MOMENTS IN TIME • The History Channel

• On Feb. 18, 2001, NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Sr. dies at age of 49 in a last-lap crash at the Daytona 500. While vying for third place in his famous black No. 3 Chevrolet, Earnhardt collided with another car, then crashed into a wall.

MOMENTS IN TIME • The History Channel • On Feb. 14, 278 A.D., Valentine, a priest in Rome, is executed for defying Emperor Claudius II and performing marriages in secret. Claudius believed that Roman men were unwilling to join his army because of their attachment to their families, and banned all marriages. Today, we celebrate Feb. 14 as Valentine’s Day.

MOMENTS IN TIME • The History Channel • On Feb. 19, 1777, the Continental Congress votes to promote five men to major general, but overlooks Benedict Arnold, who felt slighted and threatened to resign. In 1780, Arnold became the most famous traitor in American history when he offered to hand over West Point to the British.

DR. ROACH WRITES: I wrote a column on cracked fingertips, and received a wealth of suggestions from readers.

For prevention, some suggestions I liked included avoiding too-hot water for handwashing, antibacterial soaps and wool gloves, all of which can remove protective oils from your fingers. A humidifier in the house can prevent drying of all the skin.

Home-treatment remedies included flax-seed oil or B vitamins by mouth. (I don’t know if these are effective, but they should be safe.)

Most people recommended emollients to the hands, specifically Preparation H, O’Keefe’s Working Hands, Bag Balm, CeraVe, Chapstick and Carmex Healing Cream. Plain petrolatum (Vaseline) works very well for many people and is inexpensive. The area can be covered at night by a bandage or glove.

Several people recommended saltwater soaks. One noted that the pure mountain water of Colorado Springs cured him in three days.

Finally, one person recommended trimming the nails quite short.

These home remedies have helped many. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: After an extreme case of vertigo, including vomiting and being taken to the emergency room, my unsteadiness remains. Over a week later, I need to use a walker to be safe. I am 79, and this happened once four years ago, but without the aftereffects.

Any suggestions? -- M.W. ANSWER: The major causes of vertigo, acute labyrinthitis and benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, often continue to produce attacks that tend to lessen in severity up to a month after the initial severe attack. A walker may be a useful precaution while recovering.

If the problem persists, I strongly recommend a visit with a physical and/or occupational therapist for vestibular rehabilitation, which is physical therapy to restore balance. It also might be necessary to revisit your doctor to confirm the original diagnosis.

The booklet on vertigo explains this disruptive condition in detail and outlines its treatment. Readers can order a copy by writing: Dr. Roach -- No. 801W, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803.

Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: My 15-year-old son was just admitted to the hospital for depression and ADD. His thyroid tests came back abnormal. There is thyroid disease in the family. Is that the cause of his illness? -- Anon.

ANSWER: Thyroid conditions, including both hyper- (too much) and hypo- (too little) thyroid hormone are common in the general population, but more so in people who are diagnosed with a wide variety of psychiatric illnesses, including depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder. I have read that up to a third of people in new admissions for psychiatric conditions have thyroid abnormalities. It isn’t always clear whether the thyroid problem caused the psychiatric illness, and probably most often there is a large combination of factors, including genetics, environmental and medical conditions that affect the development of psychiatric conditions.

It is clear that sometimes, but not always, treating the underlying thyroid condition can make managing the psychiatric symptoms much easier. *** Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu.

MUSIC CAN IMPACT EMOTIONS Music is an integral part of the human experience. Songs have been sung for centuries, and music plays an integral role in many cultural ceremonies, rites of passage and other traditions.

Love songs may be enjoyed on Valentine’s Day and stir up strong romantic feelings that enhance the theme of the day. But why is music so impactful?

Researchers have had an interest in music and its impact on human emotion and perceptions for many years. Music of all genres and styles can be therapeutic and boost mood while bringing listeners pleasure and comfort.

Sad music may intensify grief.

Music can evoke strong feelings and may influence how individuals perceive other people and things.

According to a recent study by researchers Nidhya Logeswaran and Joydeep Bhattacharya from the University of London, music affects how people see visual images. In an experiment, 30 subjects were presented with a series of happy or sad musical excerpts. After listening to the songs, the subjects were shown a photograph of a face. Some people were shown a happy face - the person was smiling - while others were exposed to a face with sad or neutral facial expressions. The participants were then asked to rate the emotional content of the face. Researchers found that happy music made happy faces seem that much more pleasant, while sad music exaggerated frowns. Similar effects were found with neutral faces.

These findings illustrate how music can help improve physical and mental health when used in concert with other strategies.

The American Music Therapy Association reports that music therapy programs can be used to manage stress, enhance memory and alleviate pain.

The right music can serve as a catalyst for romance. Men and women can increase feelings of affection in their romantic partners by playing love songs in the background while offering gifts and tokens of their love. If a proposal is planned for February, one can set the mood with a favorite song that exemplifies the special relationship shared with a significant other.

Those who may not be able to express their feelings verbally may find that music helps to convey those feelings.

Music certainly can impact emotions, though the reasons why are not entirely known.

However, people can use music to their advantage, particularly on Valentine’s Day.

How seniors can simplify everyday tasks The ability to perform everyday tasks is something many people take for granted. But as men and women approach or exceed retirement age, many may start to struggle with chores and tasks they have performed for decades.

Physical limitations are a common side effect of aging. But such limitations do not have to prove too big a hurdle for seniors to clear.

In fact, there are many ways for seniors to simplify everyday tasks while maintaining their independence. · Embrace technology. Even the proudest Luddites cannot deny technology’s potential to make seniors’ lives easier. Seemingly simple tasks like shopping for groceries and vacuuming a home can be difficult for seniors with dwindling or limited mobility. But seniors with Internet access in their homes can order their groceries online and then pick them up in-store or have them delivered, saving them the trouble of walking around the store. With regard to vacuuming, autonomous vacuum cleaners have removed the need to use traditional vacuum cleaners. Certain autonomous vacuums employ sensors to detect dirty spots on the floor, and these vacuums can even be programmed to clean the home while residents are out of the house. · Upgrade bathrooms. Tasks associated with personal hygiene also tend to be taken for granted until they become difficult. But a few simple bathroom alterations can help seniors safely navigate the bathrooms in their homes so they can maintain their personal hygiene without fear of injury. Grab bars can be installed on shower walls so seniors can safely get in and out of their showers and bathtubs. Such bars are both effective and inexpensive, and some do not even require any drilling to install. Specialty grab bars, tub grips and tub transfer benches are just a few additional products that can make bathing easier for seniors who have lost or are starting to lose some of their physical strength.

· Get “smart” on the road. Seniors who are experiencing mild difficulty driving can make getting about town that much easier by plugging their smartphones into their vehicles or making use of the various apps that have become standard in modern vehicles. For example, the maps app on a smartphone can be connected to a car and direct seniors to their destinations, saving them the trouble of remembering all the ins and outs of how to get a particular destination. Seniors also can employ apps to help them find their vehicles should they forget exactly where they parked in crowded parking lots. Such apps can increase seniors’ comfort levels on the road while helping them maintain their independence. · Downsize. Whether downsizing to a smaller home or simply downsizing a lifestyle, seniors may find that living smaller is akin to living simpler. Empty nesters may find they no longer need several bedrooms in their homes, and moving into smaller homes can reduce their daily workloads while also clearing out clutter that can make performing everyday chores more difficult. Men and women accustomed to hustle and bustle may also find that cutting back on professional and/or personal commitments gives them more energy for everyday activities while enriching the commitments they continue to maintain.

Aging men and women can employ various strategies to simplify their lives and maintain their independence well into their golden years.

On the Saturday before Thanksgiving I accidentally fell while working at an exit of the Thruway, breaking my hip. I want to thank everyone who stopped to help me, especially the first woman who let me lean against her until the ambulance came. She was my angel. Thank you to my coworkers who brought blankets to cover me up. A thank you to my supervisor who came quickly from another exit and stayed with me at the hospital. I’m still at home recovering. There are just so few words to say how truly grateful I am. I’m just so overwhelmed by you all. God bless each of you.

My five-year-old brother spent some time in the hospital over the holiday season. At the hospital, there were kind, caring nurses who worked hard to

Page 20

TRI-COUNTY EDITION

help him all day, every day.

Among other things, I saw a nurse hold his hand and get him some Italian ice so that he would take his medicine. Also, I know a nurse in our area who was excited to work on New Year’s Eve so that she could see the first baby of 2017. I am so thankful for the nurses in our area who sacrifice and work so hard to help others.

The Memorial Day Detachment # 468 of the Marine Corps League would like to thank everyone who participated in our Toys For Tots campaign. We collected, and with the help of our participating agencies, distributed over 5,000 toys to children in Ontario and Livingston Counties. All toys collected in Ontario or Livingston County were distributed within that county. We appreciate everyone who participated as a drop off point, made donations, helped distribute the toys or just spread the word. A lot of children had a Merry Christmas because of you and we are truly grateful.

Thank you.

People need to learn how to drive. I am a 20-year-old woman and I have never been in an accident of any kind. I drive the same route every day to school and work, almost always stuck behind a vehicle with a driver who does not know how to use the round-about or how to correctly use turning signals, etc. Not all the time is the driver old, but last week I was behind an older woman who stopped in the middle of the round-a-bout. I stopped at the yield, honked, and motioned for her to “GO” so she did not cause an accident! In the next round-about down the road, she proceeded to do the same thing! It disgusts me that America has become a hazard on the roads due to incapable drivers.

As a retail store employee please remember a few things the next time you are in line.

We’re supposed to make sure you leave the store happy & for the most part “say yes.”

So... Yes, it’s rude when you’re on your cell as we help you. Yes, you are taking your miserable life out on the wrong person; it’s not my fault that you’re miserable. Yes we know you switched the tags/stickers for an even lower price. Yes, we think you’re nuts asking for a discount on an item because that’s the price you think it should be; It’s a business not a garage sale. Yes, I am embarrassed for you when you’re yelling at a cashier, calm down because you’re making a fool of yourself.

Smile. Merry Christmas

The polite garbage can etiquette is to put your trash cans out the evening before or morning of pickup day and bring them in once they’ve been emptied. When you put yours out ONE WEEK prior to pick-up day and then leave the empty, scattered cans on your front lawn for days afterward it becomes an eyesore to the neighborhood. Think about this ~ if the entire neighborhood followed that practice what kind of a slum would this street look like? Please show some consideration to those of us who care.

Dachshunds are ideal dogs for small children, as they are already stretched and pulled to such a length that the child cannot do much harm one way or the other. ~Robert Benchley PAW’S CORNER By Sam Mazzotta Costly Shots Leave Cat Owner Wincing DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My cat, “Trina,” is an indoor cat -- her paws never touch the outside ground. So why does she need so many different shots each year? The feline leukemia I can understand, but why should she get a rabies shot and so on when she’s never exposed to other creatures?

The shots are so costly that we are refraining from taking her to get them.

-- Ethel H., via e-mail DEAR ETHEL: I can understand your reluctance to keep getting Trina shots every year when she is at low risk of catching the diseases the shots prevent. And the shot package is costly -- even many “low cost” shot clinics run upward of $45 to $65 for a complete set of vaccinations.

However, state health boards have decided they can’t take the chance of unvaccinated cats getting out among other cats (and pets do escape, even if Trina is a good cat) and catching and then spreading certain diseases.

There’s also the admittedly low risk of another pet or wild animal entering Trina’s living space and biting or otherwise exposing her to a disease. So, although I know it’s expensive and uncomfortable, for Trina’s sake, she needs to be vaccinated regularly.

In recent years, a growing number of states have been reducing the frequency of rabies shots -- from every year to once every three years.

Certain other shots still are required annually, but it’s one less item on your bill.

Please keep Trina’s vaccinations up to date. You’ll have the peace of mind of knowing she’s safe just in case.

Fence Etiquette Prevents Disputes: There are certain things you must do and should do if you plan to erect a fence. Most people find neighbors appreciate being informed of any decisions you are thinking of making to the property that can affect their views or their adjoining property. Before drawing up fence plans with a contractor, talk to the neighbors on either side of your home and gauge their receptiveness to a fence. At this point, you may want to consider offering to make the fencing project a joint deal to save money should the neighbors decide to install a fence as well. Contractors will often discount if they have several customers doing an installation at the same time.

Property owners can save by splitting the costs of the shared walls of the fence where their property lines meet.

Rather than listing every job responsibility and position in chronological order, use a résumé to highlight specific career accomplishments. This is a time to be your biggest fan and tell the world all of the great things you have accomplished. Remember to include evidence to back up the claims. According to a 2015 survey

by CareerBuilder, employers say that résumés that include links to a candidate’s portfolio, website or blog garner more attention than résumés without such links.

Updating a résumé with the goal of standing out among a crowded pool of applicants is a great way for job seekers to land a new job.

Relaxation techniques to calm your nerves Yoga - Yoga has grown increasingly popular in recent years, and much of that can be traced to the multitude of health benefits that have been linked to this typically low-impact practice of the mind and body. The NCCAM notes that studies have suggested yoga is effective at lowering heart rate and blood pressure and can even relieve anxiety and depression.

Those are beneficial side effects for sufferers of stress, which over time can contribute to high blood pressure and arrhythmia (abnormal heartbeat) and even cause people to worry too much about minor things or suspect bad things are about to happen.

It doesn’t matter how many times you fail. It doesn’t matter how many times you almost get it right. No one is going to know or care about your failures, and neither should you. All you have to do is learn from them and those around you because... All that matters in business is that you get it right once. Then everyone can tell you how lucky you are. ~Mark Cuban

But if you don’t have marketing experience, how do you know what needs to be done and where to begin?

Use More Than One Method - It’s important to actively market your business in a variety of ways, particularly now when consumers are looking in many different places for direction on where to go for local goods and services.

The most successful marketing plans consist of a diversified portfolio that includes a mix of print, direct mail, online and search engine optimization/marketing (SEO/SEM) components. This multi-pronged approach helps businesses get better overall market penetration.

Recent studies have found that nearly half of all U.S. small businesses don’t have a website. “With so many affordable options available, nearly every business should have an online presence,” said Klock. “Also, if you don’t know anything about search engine optimization, make sure your website creator or consultant does.” SEO/SEM can help improve your search engine ranking so your company’s website is more likely to be found by your target audience.

By combining internet and search optimization methods with direct mail and print in a marketing program, local business are more likely to reach existing customers and new prospects across multiple touch points.

Keep Fine Tuning Your Marketing Plan - According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, a successful marketing plan should include market research, location, the targeted customer group, competition, positioning, the product or service being sold, pricing, advertising and promotion. Refer to it often and update it every three to six months. Keep track of what has worked and what hasn’t. Get customer feedback, as well.

“Smaller businesses can probably aim to revisit their plans in the six-month range because they have fewer moving parts,” said Klock. “This exercise can also help businesses uncover seasonal trends and evaluate their performance to help inform key management decisions.”

Get Professional Help - Professional media consultants can often help a business focus its efforts in ways that a family member or a part-time staffer cannot. Marketing experts have the skills to map out a customized strategy, are more up to date on the latest market trends and have a knowledgeable, experienced staff with a proven track record on the sidelines to provide valuable support whenever it’s needed.

One popular outsourcing option is Yellowbook’s 360-degree portfolio of marketing tools, which offers a variety of options for small business owners.
