The Season was waning to its close. The gardens showed but little of the ravages of autumn as yet. The noble avenues of trees were still in their glory of fulness and expansive verdure; although here and there a few fallen leaves seemed to have fluttered down to earth as premature heralds of decay. The later flowers were gorgeous in their many-coloured splendour, though their earlier sisters had already lived the best of their lives, and now drooped their heads, as if to hide their blighted charms.
~J. Palgrave Simpson, For Ever and Never, 1884, wording slightly altered
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My cat Isaiah o en gets eas in the late spring through summer, but by September the eas are usually gone. is year, he still has eas, even as we get into the chillier October month. What can I do to drive the eas out? -- Maddy in Biddeford, Maine
DEAR MADDY: While ea activity tends to drop during the colder months, chillier weather isn’t a guarantee that they’ll go away. A number of factors could keep them around, conceivably, all year. ings like a constantly warm environment in which to live (your house) or a higher than usual ea population (this can vary from year to year).
To really get rid of Isaiah’s eas, you’ll need to treat him and tackle possible ea problems inside the house.
Treat Isaiah with a ea treatment, available at the pet store or from the vet. Perfumed soaps aren’t good alternatives; they can dry and irritate his skin.
Wash or replace Isaiah’s bedding, and wash any furniture upholstery, blankets or other items where he likes to lounge for long periods.
Treat the carpet with a ea preventative, available at the pet store or online. Put Isaiah into a safe room and sprinkle the treatment into the carpet as directed, then vacuum it up. e treatment will take care of any live eas or eggs hiding in the carpet.
If your cat spends time outdoors, consider making him an indoor cat. is will reduce the chance of him contracting eas outside and bringing them into the house.

What are some benefits to fostering for the people involved? While there are many benefits to the pet, including a less stressful, quiet environment, people get something out of fostering, too. Foster families can provide love and affection to an animal that needs it. It can be rewarding to do something selfless, and teaches compassion to everyone in the household. Since having a pet is a large responsibility, pet fostering also serves as an introductory lesson for anyone considering becoming a permanent pet parent. When fostering a pet, everyone in the household gets to see the day-to-day tasks that pet ownership requires.

Before Passion came to her foster mom, she was used for breeding, amongst other things, and thrown out on the street to be found in very rough shape. Despite everything she has been through, she is the most loving, gentle, playful and sweet girl! She now lives a life of happiness and comfort with her two new brothers who are also rescues. She will only know love for the rest of her life!
Send us a photo and brief write-up of your pet and we’ll feature it. Email to: sales@gvpennysaver.com or mail to: P.O. Box 340, Avon, NY 14414. Pets will be published at discretion of GVPS.
(NAPSI)—NaturVet’s veterinarian-formulated pet supplements have progressed over the last 25 years to keep up with the ever-changing needs of pet parents. NaturVet’s newest Hemp for Health product line includes four top products—Allergy, Calming, Immune and Joint— that are now available enhanced with Hemp Seed Oil and Hemp Seed Powder, sharing the same great original base formulas that pet parents have relied on for years.
Although marijuana and hemp come from the same cannabis family, the plants are completely different in function, cultivation and application. Hemp is grown specifically for agricultural purposes and has been used for hundreds of years in textiles, body care products, paper products, industrial products and building materials. Most importantly, hemp is nonpsychoactive and cannot get your pet high. Hemp has significant health benefits for pets. Hemp is high in fiber; a great source of plant-based protein; is rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids; and contains phytonutrients, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and 20 amino acids. Hemp Seed Oil and Hemp Seed Powder work synergistically with other active ingredients to help provide support for allergies, stress and anxiety, joints, aches and discomfort, the immune system, and overall health and wellness. For more information on NaturVet products, please visit www.NaturVet.com or call (888) 628-8783.
Please bring a bag of food for a dog, cat, gerbil, sh, muskrat, squirrel…etc.

When working with chemicals and other products that have strong odors and/or emit particulates into the air, make sure you do so in well-ventilated areas. This will help dissipate the smell and prevent inhalation of concentrated chemical substances. Masks guard against dust, pollen and some other microscopic particles and may not provide enough protection, depending on the job. The Home Depot suggests using particulate or filtration respirators when performing tasks, such as sanding, where you might be exposed to particles. Gas and vapor respirators offer protection against additional substances.

I love football. I'm all for supporting a team, the excitement, etc. However, when there's a very late game on a night when people have to work the next day and you're just getting back at 1am with a bus full of people on a quiet residential street, have some consideration about waking your neighbors up with beeping your horn and yelling just because your team won.
Do people know that when it’s raining and your headlights are not on, it’s difficult to see you! It’s the law: if wipers are being used, headlights are supposed to be on. It’s not that hard to flip a switch.
Last Friday I was walking to my car in a suburban store parking lot. Unbeknownst to me, I was followed from the store by someone. I was warned of this by a kind young lady who noticed this person following me and pulled her van alongside me until I got in my car safely. Thank you for taking time from your busy day to help a stranger.
My sincere thank you to the lovely couple who sat behind me at the Batavia Town and Country Restaurant early in September. I found when I went to pay for my dinner that it had been paid for by these nice people. What a wonderful surprise and gift! Thank you and blessings to you.
We live in a village home in and among many other homes on a well-traveled street. Occasionally, my wife and I have things we no longer use. These items are too good to simply discard, so we put them in front of our home with a painted, wooden sign stating "Free Stuff" attached to the nearby tree. We are happy that people find uses for these items. We are not happy when they also take our painted signs which are securely nailed or bungeed to the tree. Why would anyone do that? Maybe I'm too literal. Maybe I should keep it simple and discard this stuff. Otherwise, along with the signs, someday I'll hear a chainsaw cutting down the tree, as well. Wow, this country is in serious trouble.
The abuse of the handicap parking system is beyond the pale! The number of people pulling into a handicap spot, hopping out of their vehicle and fast walking into a building or then upstairs is wrong. Sometimes, that sort of person hops out of their car with a nametag on, showing they're working. Most of these people are not elderly. Then, an elderly person with a cane or someone who has difficulty walking must walk an extreme distance because there's no close handicap spot for them. It's selfish and greedy. These people know they don't need that spot. You know who you are.

The two major types are the four-toed and five-toed sloths.
Their closest relatives are anteaters and armadillos.
Sloths spend their lives in the mountains.
They munch on leaves and twigs.
Sloths can swim three times faster than they can walk on land.
Their ability to slow their heart rates to one-third its normal rate, gives them the ability to hold their breath for a whopping 40 minutes underwater.
Sloths are good pets.
They can live anywhere between 10 and 30 years!
It is hard for sloths to camouflage in the trees.
Although sloths have peaceful demeanors, wild sloths can be aggressive and bite very hard.

Genesee County Habitat for Humanity, partnered with ReStore, believes that just because you have a low income or may be struggling nancially, doesn’t mean you have to settle for low quality household furnishings. is is an important message to send in a time where many are still struggling in the a ermath of Covid and an ever-in ating economy.
ReStore Operations Director Shay Kilner, adds “One of the common misconceptions we hear is that the only people we sell to are people that don’t have anything nancially.” Kilner is emphatic that this is far from the truth.
“Everyone who comes in to ReStore comes from all di erent demographics,” she explains. “ ere’s a good mix of everyone within our shoppers. If you don’t have a ton of money, you still deserve quality items and I personally believe that, regardless of your nancial status, you do deserve some good quality items.” In addition, shoppers at ReStore in Batavia walk away with a y percent (or more) savings in comparison to commercial retailers and their proceeds go on to fund Habitat for Humanity’s next build site.
Another signi cant di erence between ReStore and commercial retailers is the relationships their store associates develop within the community. “We have a good relationship with our customers,” says Kilner. “We try to know our customers on a rst name basis. We’re here, and we are available to support them.”
While many of their items are obtained from generous donors throughout the Genesee Valley, ReStore has also gained public attention from some very notable retailers and corporations. Many of these generous benefactors choose to remain anonymous, but Target has remained a well-known sponsor. “Target is a really good supporter of us. Every year they donate Christmas tree displays. ose trees that you see around the store, we will have them available for sale,” notes Kilner.
Among the household supplies and furnishings they have to o er, visitors can nd an assortment of cabinets, furniture sets, electrical appliances, stoves, dryers, holiday décor, vanities, ooring and carpeting to suit the needs of their home. Kilner adds that ReStore provides a drop-o for anyone wishing to donate, and if people are unable to bring their donations to the store, they o er weekly pick-ups which, for Kilner, is one of the most rewarding experiences about working with ReStore and Habitat for Humanity.
“Typically, I go out on pickups, and I pick up the items for the store,” she explains. “Our donors feel [satisfaction] in giving, in the sense that the items they are giving are going to help someone and will regain a second life.” Kilner’s enthusiasm for helping others in need does not go unnoticed; it is as palpable over the phone as it is in person.
In addition to regaining a second life, the environmental impact of recycling gently used furnishings is another reason to consider donating to stores like ReStore and Habitat for Humanity instead of tossing unwanted items to the curb this year. In the 2021 scal year alone, ReStore has prevented an
astonishing 21,429 pounds of materials from going to land lls. Truly, “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”
Each ReStore location o ers a varying selection of items, so Kilner suggests reviewing them online or calling ahead of time. Every Friday night, ReStore in Batavia will post a hot ticket item that is currently available on their Facebook page, and those items are sold rst come, rst serve. “Just today we had a couch and loveseat set,” says Kilner. “A customer was moving today, and she said it was prefect for her apartment. We have a great following for our items posted on Facebook,” A loyal following that many in Genesee Valley are aware of, but some have yet to discover. Currently, ReStore in Batavia is open one day a week, opening its doors at 10:00 AM each Saturday. Bargain shoppers of every variety are typically packed outside their doors, excited to cash in on their next great deal.
Looking to donate to ReStore this holiday season? Appliances are their top request. “Appliances are our #1 seller, refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves,” explains Kilmer. “Since Covid, there has been a backorder on those. ey do go quickly. e need is there for them. at’s just one of those things that we love when they do come in.”
For Kilner and her store associates, every Saturday is an opportunity to make someone’s day. ey are aware of the grateful smiles, the tears of joy, and the random acts of kindness brought to life because no other store helps those in need get back on their feet like ReStore does. For others, it’s simply just a great bargain, or an opportunity for their previously cherished but no longer needed household items and furnishings to go to a brand-new home. Either way, everyone wins.

Visit consignment stores: Consignment shops and Goodwill(R) stores are popular places to buy preowned items. These stores take donations or offer items for sale on consignment, which means once sold the person who provided the item gets a portion of the sale.
When browsing the racks of these stores, it’s possible to discover highend items mixed in with less expensive items. Shoppers may find designer handbags and clothing for much less than they would sell at retail, especially if the pieces are one or two seasons old. Relying on these stores to supplement classic wardrobe pieces is cost-effective and beneficial to the environment. If you regularly shop consignment stores, you can develop a rapport with the shopkeeper, who may alert you when new items are available.

When it comes to vehicle maintenance, the rule of two has long reigned among professional automotive technicians and driving safety advocates. In accordance to this rule, drivers replacing important parts in their cars and trucks, such as tires, brakes, shocks and wiper blades, should always do so in pairs.
Replacing parts in pairs can ensure vehicles are properly balanced and functioning safely. But it’s not just tires, brakes and other big-ticket components that should be replaced in pairs. Vehicle lighting plays an integral role in keeping drivers and their passengers safe, and motorists should exercise the same caution regarding their vehicles’ headlights, taillights and turn signals that they do when maintaining the rest of their cars and trucks.
It is common for consumers to spend months researching and saving for new vehicles. But many auto buyers do not put the same amount of effort into finding auto loans. That’s unfortunate, as Consumer Reports notes that those who do not have financing arranged before visiting a dealership may not get the best loan terms.
Prior to buying a vehicle, drivers should give consideration to how they appear in the eyes of creditors. Few if any people pay for cars or trucks in full at the time of purchase. As a result, it’s key for buyers to make themselves as attractive as possible in lenders’ eyes.
Improving credit score: Lenders use consumers’ credit scores to determine how likely they will be to honor the terms of a potential loan. Consumers’ FICO® scores are the type of credit score most often used to make lending decisions. FICO scores range between 300 and 850. The higher the score, the lower the risk to lenders. However, lenders do not necessarily use the same formula to assess risk.
The first step potential borrowers should take is figuring out what their credit score is, and what information is on their credit report. For those who haven’t done so already, they can request a free copy of their credit reports from the three major credit monitoring bureaus. Once credit reports are obtained, consumers can work to correct any mistakes or inconsistencies. Some of these may be simple fixes, while others may take some effort. A 2012 study from the Federal Trade Commission found that one in five consumers had an error on at least one of their credit reports.
Consumers also can improve their credit scores by doing the following:
• Make payments on time, as payment history can have the greatest effect on a bad credit score, according to Credit.com.
• Reduce debt by paying off balances on credit cards or other loans.
• Obtain a mix of different credit sources, such as those in the form of credit cards, furniture financing, home ownership, and auto loans. This, too, can raise credit scores and make borrowers appear less risky.
• Keep old credit accounts open, as they establish a strong credit history. Try not to open too many new accounts in a short period of time.
Borrowers with strong credit will be attractive to lenders and will have more loan options at their disposal.
Follow along all 4 weeks in October as we spread awareness about breast cancer prevention, diagnosis, recovery and life after breast cancer.
Breast Cancer Awareness SERIES Sponsored By:
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in American women, except for skin cancers. It is estimated that in 2022, approximately 30% of all new women cancer diagnoses will be breast cancer.
FAQWhat can I do to reduce my risk of breast cancer?
• Limit alcohol. The more alcohol you drink, the greater your risk of developing breast cancer.
• Maintain a healthy weight. If your weight is healthy, work to maintain that weight.
• Be physically active.
• Breast-feed.
• Limit postmenopausal hormone therapy.
No one, regardless of their age, occupation, skin color, or socioeconomic status, is immune to cancer. In fact, individuals might be hard pressed to say no one in their family and/or circle of friends has been diagnosed with cancer at some point. According to the National Cancer Institute, there were 18.1 million new cancer cases across the globe in 2018. Among women, when excluding non-melanoma skin cancer, no cancer was more prevalent globally than breast cancer. e World Cancer Research Fund reports that, in 2018, breast cancer accounted for 25.4 percent of all new cancer diagnoses in women. at gure is nearly three times as high as the percentage of cases of colorectal cancer, which accounted for the second most new cancer cases diagnosed in women in 2018.
It’s understandable to be fearful of such gures, which can make a breast cancer diagnosis seem almost inevitable. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention notes that not all risk factors for breast cancer are set in stone. ough age and family history, two known risk factors for breast cancer, may be beyond a woman’s control, she still can exercise some control over other risk factors.
Physical activity e CDC notes that women who are not physically active have a higher risk of getting breast cancer than those who are. e O ce on Women’s Health, a division of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, notes that women should get two hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity every week or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity each week. is should be accompanied by muscle-strengthening activities on two or more days each week. Carrying around extra weight can make moving around more di cult, so the O ce on Women’s Health urges larger women to start slowly if it’s been awhile since they exercised. In addition, aging women can speak with their physicians for advice about exercise regimens they should or need not avoid.
replacement therapies that include both estrogen and progesterone taken during menopause can increase a woman’s risk for breast cancer when taken for more than ve years. In addition, the CDC reports that oral contraceptives, such as birth control pills, have been linked to a higher risk for breast cancer. Women can speak with their physicians about how to control hormone-related risk factors for breast cancer.
Alcohol consumption Studies have found that the more alcohol a woman consumes, the greater her risk for breast cancer becomes.

somewhat routine self-exams so they can uncover any lumps or other issues that may warrant further examination by a physician. Though self-exams can lead to discovery of breast cancer when the disease is most treatable,theWorld Health Organization notes that as many as 90 percent of breast masses are not cancerous. Non-cancerous abnormalities may be benign masses such as fibroadenoma and cysts or indicative of infection. It’s also important that women recognize that breast cancer is not always accompanied by a lump. In fact, the Mayo Clinic reports that many women with breast cancer never experience any signs or symptoms of the disease. In such instances, the disease is discovered during screening tests,which include mammograms.

With cold weather here, we’re all trying to nd ways to stay warm both indoors and when we go out. Are you set up for winter? is is the time to be sure.
Here is what I’ve done so far this year.
Slippers that you wear around the house: Have yours stretched out over the years? Is there any chance you could walk right out of them? is might be the year you need to invest in new indoor footwear for safety. Slippers are jotted down on my own list because yes, I do need new ones, and I’m going for slippers with a solid bottom.
Indoor vest: I’ve had one for years that adds a layer of warmth when the house is a bit chilly when worn over a sweatshirt or a long sleeve wa e shirt. It’s still ne.
Gloves: I’ve discovered that my insulated gloves that have kept my hands warm for years now have worn through the seam on the thumb, creating a 1-inch hole and letting in very cold air. I discovered how that happened: It’s from holding the steering wheel in the car. I’ll be pulling out my needle and thread to make that repair.
Hat, scarf, boots: check.
Winter coat with hood: And this is where making a major purchase is i y. Do I need a new winter coat this year ... or not? And the answer is no. ree winters into Covid, it’s still out there. Despite the new omicron booster, there are experts who say we’ll have another Covid surge this winter with rising cases and hospitalization numbers, mostly due to human behavior and dwindling interest in getting a booster.
So no ... once again, I don’t need a new winter coat. I still won’t be going out as much as I used to long ago.

An estimated 154,794 Americans are currently living with metastatic breast cancer, which occurs when cancer in the breast spreads to other parts of the body, most often the lungs, liver, bones, and brain. One quarter of this number represents those whose metastatic disease was found at diagnosis, while three-quarters have experienced metastatic recurrence of early stage disease. Approximately 20% to 30% of people
diagnosed with early stage disease will later develop advanced or metastatic breast cancer.

Most people think that aging is irreversible and we know that there are mechanisms even in the human machinery that allow for the reversal of aging, through correction of diet, through anti-oxidants, through removal of toxins from the body, through exercise, through yoga and breathing techniques, and through meditation.
~ Deepak ChopraDEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 66-year-old male who was diagnosed about 15 years ago with mild coronary artery disease, with some blockages in my peripheral arteries. I was taking the maximum recommended dosage of pravastatin to maintain a low cholesterol, but I experienced complete ruptures of both Achilles tendons. These incidences occurred five years apart, but after the second rupture, my doctor discontinued the pravastatin. I then started Praluent injections twice a month to control my cholesterol, which has been incredibly effective -- maybe even too effective -- and is the purpose of my writing to you. With Praluent injections, my LDL level is about 26, and my HDL is 100. When my primary doctor’s assistant recently called to inform me of my bloodwork results, she said she has never seen anyone with such a low LDL level -- and she sees a lot of bloodwork! My primary care doctor doesn’t like it that low, but two different cardiologists I have seen think that the lower it is, the better. What do you think? -- J.W.
ANSWER: The first issue is whether statins increase the risk of an Achilles tendon rupture, and I can’t answer that with certainty, because there is some evidence it does. (Some studies have reported anywhere from an 80% relative risk increase to triple the risk, but the risk is still very, very low. Even if they triple the risk, the risk would be only three people per 10,000.) The studies that have shown there is risk suggest that the risk is only in the first year of taking statins, but other studies have shown no risk at all from statins.
The second issue is your very low LDL level, and the data for LDL levels is firmly on the side of the cardiologists you spoke with. The lower the LDL, the lower the risk of heart disease, and levels under 30 are not at all unusual in a person taking alirocumab (Praluent) or the other drug in that class (called PCSK9 inhibitors), evolocumab (Repatha). Your doctor’s assistant will likely be seeing more people with LDL levels like yours. Do remember that a healthy, mostly plant-based diet and regular exercise still have benefits in people with LDL levels as low as yours -- and not just in heart disease, but in reducing cancer risk, too.
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.

Also called periodontal scaling or root planing, a deep oral hygiene cleaning goes beyond the routine dental cleanings we receive every six months. Your dentist may recommend a deep cleaning if you have bleeding gums, receding gums, loose teeth, or significant tartar buildup beneath the gumline. A routine cleaning removes plaque and tartar above the gumline, while a periodontal scaling addresses these issues below the gumline. The root planing part of the procedure removes the plaque and tartar that can form on the roots of the teeth. Because the procedure may be uncomfortable, local anesthetic is used for pain during the treatment, and sore gums may be experienced for a few days following the procedure.
Avoid that moment of panic and regret that comes when you realize you’ve neglected your oral hygiene routine for far too long and now must deal with the consequences. At BATAVIA FAMILY DENTAL, we are adept at dealing with those consequences, and will do all we can to turn your smile into the one you’ve always dreamed of having. When you’re ready to take that first step, we’re ready for your call at 585.343.4246, 6 Batavia City Centre. We accept most insurances.
P.S. Dental deep cleanings usually take place over the course of two to four visits that last 30 to 60 minutes
Take care of your health.Mental HealthAmerica,a community-based nonprofit committed to promoting mental health, urges individuals dealing with the loss of a loved one to take care of their own health. After losing a loved one, some people may be in danger of developing a dependence on medication or alcohol that they’re using to deal with their grief. It’s important that grieving individuals recognize that threat and the role that maintaining one’s personal health can play in the healing process. Regular contact with your physician, routine exercise and a healthy diet can promote personal health and may help individuals avoid the pitfalls of addiction after the death of a loved one.
Did you ever have a hunch…a strong but unexplained feeling that something was going to happen? Most of us have hunches but we probably never think of them as having anything to do with “creativity.”
Whether instinct or intuition, hunches have probably been responsible for some weighty decisions over the centuries. The military genius of Napoleon, the financial wizardry of the Rockefellers…perhaps they were the result of creative hunches that shaped the form of history.
We take pride in providing this community with an essential service, rendered in accordance with the highest ethical standards of our profession.
Plant a tree. Trees have long symbolized life and wisdom. Trees can live for dozens of years, growing larger and more vibrant with each year that passes. Planting a tree in a loved one’s name will create a beautiful respite that people can visit and enjoy. A small plaque or another type of sign can feature the name of the person being memorialized.

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.

A 2017 study published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention found that about one-third of women diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer in the United States live at least five years after diagnosis. Also known as stage IV breast cancer, metastatic breast cancer is the most advanced stage of the disease. Metastatic breast cancer refers to breast cancer that has spread beyond the breast and nearby lymph nodes to other parts of the body. Patients diagnosed with breast cancer also should know that improved treatments may further their chances of surviving a diagnosis, even a diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer. In fact, the American Cancer Society notes that survival rates are based on women who were diagnosed and treated at least five years earlier. In the time since those survival rates were documented, treatments could have advanced even further, potentially improving the five-year survival rates for metastatic breast cancer.
* “Young children often love the act of pumpkin carving, but apart from letting them scoop out the seeds (which is FUN), there’s not a safe way to let them help with the cutting. I recommend purchasing a small pumpkin for the little ones to decorate with markers or paint.” -- W.F. in South Carolina
* “Baby lotion is great to have around on Halloween, because it can be used to remove face paint. Masks can restrict children’s vision when trick-or-treating, so face paint is a better way to go. Use a washcloth and baby lotion to get that paint off quick.” -- A.V. in Oregon
* Choose a battery-powered candle for your carved jack-o’-lanterns. You can leave it on longer, even when you aren’t home. And it’s much safer than a true flame.
* “Give any costume that your kid wants to wear for Halloween the ‘dance test.’ Have him or her put on the costume and dance around. If the child is tripping over the hems or the accessories are cumbersome, a change is in order.” -- M. in Michigan
