HOW SMALL BUSINESSES CAN MAKE THE MOST OF LOCAL MARKETS
Don’t overdo it: A cluttered stall at a festival or marketplace may make it difficult for consumers to browse or find what they’re looking for. NFIB® advises business owners to fill the space without it making it appear cluttered. Keep extra inventory on hand to restock displays as sales are made throughout the day.

Every civilization has had its version of soccer. People in ancient China played a type of soccer known as ‘cuju’ using a ball made of leather and feathers. Cuju later spread to Japan, where it was known as ‘kemari.’ Similarly, the Aztecs played a ritualistic game called ‘ollama,’ in which the ball was considered a symbol of the sun, and the captain of the losing team was sometimes sacrificed to the gods. Later, the Mesoamericans used rubber balls — which were absent in other cultures — to play a similar game.
NATIONAL
SOCCER Day
JULY 2024 28
In 1863, the first football association was formed in London. The association standardized and established the first version of soccer rules. They also banned the use of hands in the game and created standards for the size and weight of the ball used in the game. The new set of rules and standards divided the game into two classes: football and rugby.
Who is the most famous soccer referee?
Pierluigi Collina, an Italian former football referee, was named FIFA’s ‘Best Referee of the Year’ six consecutive times. He is widely considered to be the best soccer referee of all time.
1314 | The Ban on Soccer Edward II bans soccer because it is dangerous and occasionally fatal to the participants.

BRAIN-HEALTHY HABITS TO EMBRACE
Cognitive decline is a condition that is often associated with aging, but even middle-aged people can experience memory loss or cognition issues.
The Alzheimer’s Association says that more than five million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. By 2050, that number could rise to as high as 16 million people. More than 747,000 Canadians are living with Alzheimer’s or another dementia, says the Canadian Alzheimer’s Association.
Although there is no definitive way to prevent dementia, living a long, vibrant life may be possible by encouraging some healthy habits for the brain. It is never too late or too early to begin health and lifestyle changes.
Exercise: Becoming more active can improve brain volume, reduce risk for dementia and improve thinking and memory skills. The journal Neurology found that older people who vigorously exercise performed better on cognitive tests than others of the same age, placing them at the equivalent of 10 years younger. Increased blood flow that occurs with physical activity may help generate new neurons in the hippocampus, an area of the brain involved with learning and memory.
The Harvard Medical School says aerobic exercise may help improve brain tissue by improving blood flow and reducing the chances of injury to the brain from cholesterol buildup in blood vessels.
Quit smoking: The Alzheimer’s Association indicates that evidence shows smoking increases the risk of cognitive decline. Smoking can impair blood flow to the brain and cause small strokes that may damage blood vessels.
Eat healthy foods: Foods that are good for the heart and blood vessels also are good for the brain. These include fresh fruits and vegetables,
whole grains, fish-based proteins, unsaturated fats, and foods containing omega-3 fatty acids. Neurologists state that, while research on diet and cognitive function is limited, diets, such as Mediterranean and Mediterranean-DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension), may contribute to a lower risk of cognitive issues.
Consume caffeine: Caffeine may help boost memory performance and brain health. A Journal of Nutrition study found people ages 70 and older who consumed more caffeine scored better on tests of mental function than those who consumed less caffeine. Caffeine may help improve attention span, cognitive function and feelings of well-being. Information from Psychology Today also indicates caffeine may help in the storage of dopamine, which can reduce feelings of depression and anxiety. In addition, compounds in cocoa and coffee beans may improve vascular health and help repair cellular damage due to high antioxidant levels.
Work the brain: Engaging in mentally stimulating activities can create new brain connections and more backup circuits, states Dr. Joel Salinas, a neurologist at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. Working the brain through puzzles, reading and participating in social situations can stimulate the release of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a molecule essential for repairing brain cells and creating connections between them.
A good way to combine these lifestyle factors is to take an exercise class with friends, mixing the social, stimulation and exercise recommendations together.
Cognitive decline can come with aging, but through healthy habits, people can reduce their risk of memory loss and dementia.
Mulch refers to a material spread around or over a plant to enrich and/or insulate its soil. Many homeowners prefer mulch made of wood chips, which is both effective and readily available. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that organic mulches, which include leaves, wood chips, compost or grass clippings, can be used by homeowners who want to develop eco-friendly landscapes.
SHADE-TOLERANT PLANTS
Bleeding heart: Bleeding heart, or Dicentra spectabilis, is typically found in woodlands. It’s a perennial in the poppy family that produces mounded foliage and arching vine-like stems of heart-shaped flowers in the spring.
HOW TO CONSERVE ENERGY THROUGHOUT SUMMER
PLUMBING
Need A Plumber?
• All water heaters including tankless
• High efficiency furnaces, AC & boilers
• Water conditioning systems & Goulds well pumps
• All general household plumbing
• Drain cleaning
Offer bees plenty of flowering choices so they’ll be happy to come investigate. Native flowers are best because they will be most familiar. Try to plant an array that will flower at different times of the year. Simple flowers will offer more readily available access to pollen than hybrid or exotic varieties bred to produce mounding petals.
ROOFING & SIDING
Stop cooling an empty home. A cool home might be the ultimate necessity during summer heat waves, but there’s no reason to cool a residence when no one is home. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, operating thermostats more efficiently can help homeowners trim their cooling costs by as much as 10 percent. One way to be more efficient with thermostats is to keep the house warmer than normal when no one is home. Programmable thermostats can be set so air conditioning units turn on shortly before residents arrive home, ensuring the house is comfortable and no energy is wasted.
TOOLS OF THE HOME RENOVATOR’S TRADE
Home renovation projects can be both exciting and tricky. Do-ityourselfers are inspired by designs showcased in magazines, websites and their own communities. When DIY enthusiasts see a design they like, it’s understandable that they may want to emulate these looks at home. Remodeling is one of the larger DIY undertakings, and it goes beyond simple carpentry. Considering demolition, reconstruction, electrical, plumbing, and masonry work may be part of the DIY package, homeowners who are thinking about renovations must first stock up on the tools and other supplies of the trade. Having the right tools can mean the difference between a job well done and a job that needs to be redone.

STAY SAFE WHEN GARDENING IN HOT WEATHER
Garden during the cooler parts of the day. Lawncare professionals advise against watering lawns between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. in the summertime, as water is more likely to evaporate during this time, which tends to be the hottest time of the day. Gardeners should avoid working in their gardens during these hours as well. Garden in the early morning hours when the sun is not burning as hot or in late afternoon or early evening hours when temperatures are less threatening.

Here’s A Tip
BYLINE: By JoAnn Derson
* Glassware will sparkle if you add a capful of bleach to the rinse water when hand-washing dishes.
* Lush lips and lovely nailbeds are only as far away as your pantry. Use olive oil applied directly to lips and nails to moisturize.
* “Purchase a variety of wood frames from secondhand stores or tag sales, and paint them all one color. It makes a statement when you hang them all close together on a wall. We created a nice large display this way, and it was very inexpensive to do.” -- E.M. in Arizona

For Handicap
Why does our local “big box” store allow teenagers to cruise around the store on the electric carts that are for handicapped? There were two “kids” maybe 15 or 16 going up and down all the isles with nothing in their baskets. Before anyone says, “maybe they were handicapped and it doesn’t show,” they come over from another shopping center walking and running. When someone would look at them they got loud, laughed at them and basically dared them to say something. Where was Security? Are they afraid to chase them off and out? I wouldn’t have been surprised if there was a physical confrontation between a customer and one of them. Trying to contact the store manager was an absolute waste of time.
Shop Lifting and Stealing in our communities
Thank you to all! I did not have time to obtain all of your names at the time, but I wanted to thank the gentlemen who so kindly helped push my very dead Buick wagon off Rte. 31F and into the parking lot of the LNB Bank on Sunday a couple of weeks ago. I was making a left hand turn into the Tom Wahl’s parking lot from the turning lane that I was in when all of a sudden the car stopped dead in its tracks. I tried to restart the motor with no luck! So I had no power (no brakes, no power-steering, no nothing) with which to make the turn! A quick prayer to the Lord and suddenly out of nowhere 2 fellows appeared at my side windows and wanted to help. One grabbed my steering wheel, another ran to the rear and began pushing on the tail of the car (with other men already in place) and before I knew it I was in the parking lot. What could have been a nasty accident turned out for the better with no injuries to account for. I was soon able to get my wagon fixed and running again.
I am sorry this is so late, but I was so very thankful for the help of these good Samaritans!

THANK YOU
A HUGE Thank You to all the personnel who responded to the burning field fire in Stone Church on Monday, July 15th. The quick response and skill prevented the fire from spreading and causing serious damage to nearby properties. Bergen, Byron, LeRoy, Churchville and Brockport fire companies responded to the scene. We are very appreciative and thankful for your service and commitment to our communities.
I live in a small town and our [local store] had to shut down the self check out because people were dishonest and not paying for the items they checked out. This problem extends to our large stores in [local town], example [local store], and other business. When we let the low lifes and criminals get away the the crimes, they affect the business, the workers, and the community. I for one would like to see armed guards at the exit doors outside of the business and when they suspect someone is stealing an item, confront them out side the store and if they have taken an item without paying put them in handcuffs and make them stand outside the store for public display. What I really want to say is against the law. We as a society cannot overlook the crimes to make our country better; we need to stand up and say this is wrong.

DID YOU KNOW? Music courses can have a profound impact on students, potentially helping them perform better in other subjects. A recent study from the American Psychological Association found that high school students who take music courses score significantly better on exams in subjects like math and science than their nonmusical peers. The improved academic performance was more pronounced among students who learned to play an instrument rather than vocal music. The researchers behind the study examined the records of more than 112,000 students in British Columbia. Among the students whose records were studied, 13 percent had participated in at least one music course in grade 10, 11 or 12. Researchers discovered that, on average, children who learned to play a musical instrument for many years and ultimately played in a high school band or orchestra were the equivalent of roughly one academic year ahead of their peers in regard to their English, mathematics and science skills.

PAW’S CORNER
By Sam Mazzotta
Traveling with a pet. Car Edition.
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: We’re taking a road trip across the country and bringing our dog “Frankie” with us. He’s about 6 years old and well trained, but has never been beyond the front yard. How can we keep him comfortable on our journey? -- Linda P. in Trenton, New Jersey
DEAR LINDA: A road trip sounds like fun! And the key to your dog having a great time is to plan, plan, plan.
First, make sure that Frankie’s vaccinations are up to date and that his license tag and identifying information are securely attached to his collar. It’s not a bad idea to microchip your dog, too -- in case he runs off and his collar gets detached. Carry a copy of his vet records with you, too.
Next, start planning the road trip with Frankie in mind.
-- Plan rest breaks and build them into your travel time. Check along the route that you’ll be traveling for pet-friendly rest areas where you can walk dogs (on leash) during stretch breaks. You’ll want to stop every two to three hours.
-- Look for pet-friendly accommodations along the route. If you’re camping, check the campsite rules -- not all of them allow pets!
-- Pack a bag just for Frankie that has his medications, food (especially if he eats specialty pet food), favorite toys, extra blanket and extra leash.
-- Make sure Frankie is safe and secure in the car. Bigger dogs do better in a kennel cage set up in the back of your SUV or the folded-down back seat, with a padded bed to lie down on.
-- If Frankie suffers from anxiety or tends to get sick in the car, talk to the vet about medication to ease his symptoms.

Empowering Girls Through Worth More Nation: The Inspiring Journey of Sandy Arena
BY LORI BRUTON
“You can get wrapped up in yourself, but when you serve others, you find joy.” – Sandy Arena
In a world where self-centeredness o en prevails, Sandy Arena stands as a beacon of selflessness and empowerment. Overcoming her own struggles, Sandy has transformed her life into a message of hope and a ministry of empowerment. Now happily married with three children, Sandy was recognized in 2009 as one of the 175 Empowered Women in Rochester by the Rochester Genesee Valley Club. Her journey from childhood sexual abuse trauma and years of instability to becoming a celebrated advocate for young girls is a testament to the transformative power of faith and determination.
Sandy went to school for communications and worked in journalism a er college. She is an author and freelance writer, as well as photographer, filmmaker, and former fitness instructor. But her true calling lies in being a mentor and cheerleader for young girls impacted by foster care and trauma. Recognizing the crucial need for these girls to realize their selfworth for their well-being and their future, Sandy founded Worth More Nation, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering them through fashion and pageantry.
For Sandy, “Empowerment is finding your inner sparkle and inner power. Some of us do less than we can. We are not rising to our God-given destinies because we are stuck. We don’t see ourselves as God sees us. Empowerment is seeing yourself differently, and you do have the power to achieve and walk into the destiny you’ve been created for.”
rough sharing her own story of healing and resilience, she inspires others to see themselves differently and embrace their potential. Sandy appreciates the power of storytelling through movement and opened a faith-based dance school when her daughter was 13 (and her daughter took over the school a er college). Sandy wrote Yahweh Ballet: Learning to Dance by Faith, and produced the film, Arise Sweet Sarah, about early child loss, abortion, and adoption. Sandy reflects that she’s thankful her husband’s biological mother chose adoption, or else the Arena family would not exist today.
Worth More Nation events require community service and girls to stand for a cause they value. Sandy’s own daughter completed 2500 hours of community service in her ten years in the pageant. Pageants build confidence, with encouragers writing compliments for each girl on stage, and the girls take home a packet of compliments from the event.
Every girl is crowned Miss Worth More Nation, receives a banner, and is fitted for a gown and cocktail dress at the organization’s Fancy Frock Closet, full of donated prom, homecoming, mother-of-thebride, and wedding gowns. Participants attend a Queens’ luncheon with upli ing speakers, gi bags, and giveaways. Every girl has the opportunity to feel beautiful and confident, regardless of their background.
At these pageants, Sandy collaborates with her daughter’s dance company to create immersive experiences that blend storytelling with fashion at these pageants, further amplifying the message of empowerment.
Sandy Arena’s journey is a testament to the power of resilience, faith, and service. Her dedication to empowering young girls and fostering a community of support and encouragement is not just admirable but essential in today’s world. As she continues to watch these girls blossom and thrive, Sandy’s legacy of empowerment grows stronger with each life she touches.
For more information about Worth More Nation and Sandy’s work, visit worthmorenation.com, sandyarena.com, lifeworkmedia.org, or call or text Sandy at 585-350-9012.
Sandy also reflects that she experienced such unstable times when she should have been in foster care, and she wants to give the second book she is currently writing, I’m Not at Girl Anymore, to the girls she works with to let them know God helped heal her.
Worth More Nation helps girls rise up and find their voices. Every girl is celebrated as a queen, receiving not just a crown, but also a sense of validation and encouragement. Mentors share their own stories of triumph over trauma and remind the girls that their voices matter and they are not alone in their journey.

HOW COMMUNITIES BENEFIT WHEN CONSUMERS SHOP LOCAL
Support nonprofits. Local businesses often support good work in the community, such as nonprofit groups. These can include schools and sports teams, among other groups. According to Dr. Sue Lynn Sasser, professor of economics at the University of Central Oklahoma, studies indicate nonprofits “receive 250 percent more support from small businesses than larger ones.”

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF WHEN TRAVELING ALONE
Think safety before you leave. When planning a trip, make sure safety is your top priority. For example, research areas that pose a higher liklihood of robberies occurring or other crimes based on traveler feedback. Consider all-inclusive resorts that keep activities contained in a protected and managed area. Also, research the safety statistics of particular hotels and cities.
HOW CONSUMERS CAN SHOW THEIR SUPPORT FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES
Take charge of your to-go order: Convenience became the name of the game when ordering food during the pandemic. Curbside pickup service was offered as a safety measure, and many restaurants that never previously offered delivery or takeout started to do so to generate revenue at a time when in-person dining was limited if not disallowed. Some restaurants began offering delivery through apps like Grubhub or Uber Eats, and though that may be convenient for diners, restaurants must pay a fee to utilize those apps. In lieu of ordering through a third party delivery service, consumers can take charge of their to-go orders and pick up the food themselves. That saves restaurants the delivery app surcharge, allowing them to increase net profits on the meals they sell.
ELSIE’S STEWED APPLES
Serves 6 to 8
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 pounds apples, peeled, cored and cut into thick slices
1/2 cup honey, preferably sage honey
1/2 cup white wine
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 lemon
Fresh sage sprigs for garnish
1. Melt the butter in a large skillet overmediumheat.Addtheapples, turn the heat to high and sauté until they begin to brown on the edges, about 5 minutes. If some are getting too well done, remove them and place on a plate while the rest continue to cook, then return them to the skillet when all are done.
2. Reduce the heat to low and add the honey, wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1/2 cup water. Cover and allow to cook until the apples are tender but still firm; you don’t want them to turn into applesauce.
3. Serve this in a bowl, tuck in a couple sprigs of fresh sage from your garden, and tell your guests all about sage honey.

* On July 27, 1996, in Atlanta, the XXVI Summer Olympiad is disrupted by the explosion of a nail-laden pipe bomb in Centennial Olympic Park. Police were warned of the bombing in advance, it exploded before the anonymous caller said it would. Attention eventually turned to Eric Robert Rudolph, who was captured in 2003 after hiding in the mountains for five years.

Debilitating Menstrual Pain Might Be Due to Endometriosis
DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m a woman who has had terrible experiences with menstruation. I’ve probably seen two dozen different gynecologists, and I complained to every one of them about my painful periods. Not even a painkiller was prescribed.
Most of them seem to think that debilitating pain is part of being female. This pain is so bad that it is incapacitating. I’ve missed work and school because of it. I would throw up anything that I tried to eat or drink for a full day. It drives me nuts that everyone can empathize with a migraine headache, but no one has empathy for someone with menstrual cramps.
Once, I told the nurse practitioner that I had a really painful episode, and she asked, “Why didn’t you come into the office? You might have ruptured something.” Had I come into the office, it would have required an ambulance. By then, I had heard about endometriosis. I asked her if she thinks I have it, and she said, “Oooh, you probably do. You’d have to get laparoscopic surgery to know.”
Well, that would have been great to know 40 years ago. I could have gotten the surgery and spared myself years of agonizing pain. Did I explain myself incorrectly all those times when talking to my doctors? It’s too late for me (thankfully, I’m past all this), but please help us learn how to talk to our doctors in order to get through to them. These are not your garden-variety cramps that can be treated with Midol. -- S.N.
ANSWER: I am very sorry to hear of your experiences, and I’m glad you have written to try to help others avoid this outcome. While it is true that most women have discomfort during menstruation, some women experience a lot more than discomfort, and what you had is not typical at all for dysmenorrhea.
When a woman has pain that doesn’t respond to the first-line treatments, such as a heating pad and regular exercise, most primary care doctors, including gynecologists, consider pain medication as well as a trial of hormone treatment (such as combined oral contraceptives -- “birth control pills”). I’m honestly surprised you weren’t ever recommended these treatments, even though I have heard horrific stories of pelvic pain being ignored before.
If pain medication and hormone treatment are inadequate, it’s time for a primary care doctor like me to refer the patient to a specialist. The specialists I choose are gynecologists who have special expertise and training in pelvic pain. They consider multiple reasons for this persistent pain, including adenomyosis, fibroids and endometriosis.
With endometriosis, there are lesions outside the uterus near the ovaries, pelvic ligaments, bladder, or the lining of the pelvic wall in the cul-de-sac (an anatomical structure in the pelvis). Just like the endometrial tissue in the uterus, these lesions outside the uterus react to hormone levels, and at the time of menstruation, they can typically cause pain or pressure, bowel or bladder issues, painful sex, fatigue, and other symptoms.
While I can’t be sure that you had endometriosis, it is the most likely diagnosis. The diagnosis is often supported by an ultrasound, not usually by surgery at first. Medical treatments for endometriosis (such as GnRH-analogue drugs or aromatase inhibitors) are generally preferred to surgery, but surgery is still necessary sometimes. I am concerned about your having seen two dozen gynecologists. One should have been enough to treat you with increasing levels of aggressiveness. I’d advise women in your situation to seek out a gynecologist with expertise in pelvic pain.

heat damage to your car
Come summertime, people anticipate spending plenty of time outdoors enjoying the warm weather and taking in the scenery. In addition to lazy days spent at the beach or around the pool, summer is a great season for road trips and other weekend getaways.
While many people look forward to the sunshine and heat of summer, extreme weather can be problematic for vehicles. The warmer season can take its toll on car paint and mechanical components can bake under the glaringsunandheat.Furthermore, temperatures can quickly escalate inside the vehicle, potentially damaging upholstery andanythingelseinside.

Bepatient. Patience is a buyer’s ally when shopping for a pre-owned vehicle.Certified preowned vehicles at a local dealership have already been vetted and met certain standards to earn that designation, but buyers must do their own vetting when buying from private sellers. That requires patience as buyers peruse vehicle history reports provided by the seller (or gather them on their own) and don’t rush to buy cars that could ultimately prove to be lemons if they’re not vetted properly.
the number of owners. There’s no magic number of owners a vehicle can have before it’s considered too risky to buy, but the more owners a car has had, the less likely buyers will learn its full history. In addition, if sellers were not the first owners, they won’t know how the car was treated or driven prior to them buying it. That’s another potential red flag to consider before buying a car that has had more than one owner.

HOW WOMEN CAN KEEP THEIR CAREERS GOING FORWARD
Define career expectations. Defining career expectations early on can be beneficial in various ways. Such expectations can guide career choices and provide a road map that women can utilize to stay the professional course.This can help women make decisions about their careers when they come to forks in the road. For example, if a path to promotion seems blocked, women can examine their established career expectations to help them decide if it’s time to seek new employment. Defining career expectations also can help women effectively communicate with mentors about their goals, and mentors can then use that information when offering guidance. Expectations need not be concrete,and it’s likely they will change over time.But they can serve as an important foundation for anyone from young female professionals to experienced executives looking to make changes or determine the next step in their careers.
