YOU THINK YOU KNOW SNOW ? SAFE W INTER DRIVING

MAKE CUT FLOWERS LAST LONGER

W inter comes w ith a unique set of challenges, including low er air temperatures, lack of visibility, few er daylight hours, falling snow and, of course, icy roads. These can certainly make for some hazardous driving conditions, w hich is w hy experts say you should dig out your ice scraper, gloves and snow shovels before hitting the road. The safest w ay to prepare for w inter driving is to be proactive before an emergency occurs.

Purchase immature blooms Although many desire an arrangement of all opened flowers, bouquets that have some closed buds or those that are just beginning to peek out will likely last longer than bouquets that have already bloomed.

The flowers will continue to open and wilting flowers can be removed to make room for the others.

NOW HERE'S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* “For grease stains on fabric, I don’t reach any further than my kitchen sink. I saturate it with dishwashing liquid and throw it in the washer. it works better than any stain stick.” -- W.D. in Pennsylvania

By Lucie Winborne * It’s illegal in Vermont to prohibit anyone from putting up a clothesline.

* Line your veggie and fruit drawers with plain paper towels to avoid messes in the refrigerator.

* “Everyone knows probably five uses for pantyhose with runs in them. Here’s one I heard from a friend that I had never heard before. Scrunch one leg up and use it like a dusting mitt on upholstered furniture to get rid of cat hair. I guess it would work for all pet hair, but I do this every day now, and it’s so easy.” -- G.T. in Washington * If you have a stinky sink problem, check your garbage disposal. The plastic insert in the drain will usually pull out to give you a better look. Sometimes, all that is needed is to clean the plastic insert -- it can collect a nasty food slime on the disposal-facing side. You can also try running it for a few minutes with ice cubes, citrus peels or baking soda and vinegar. * If you have many books on a bookcase, here’s a tip that’ll blow you away: Use a hair dryer on the cool setting to blow dust off the top of the books. Work from the top down, wipe the visible shelf with a microfiber cloth, then vacuum the floor.

migraines are diagnosed and the best treatment? -- J.H.

ANSWER: The vestibule of the ear is where the organ

Celebrating 20 Years

of balance is located, so vestibular symptoms relate to balance issues in general, but most commonly, it means vertigo. The term “vestibular migraine” means vestibular symptoms attributed to migraine.

Vestibular migraine thus includes migraine headache -- not everyone will have a headache with every episode, but most people with vestibular migraine will have headache with at least some of the episodes -- and vestibular symptoms. These could include vertigo (a sensation of movement when still), unsteadiness or movement symptoms with a change in head position that persists long after the head has moved. Abnormal sensitivity to sound and vision are also prominent in vestibular migraine.

There is a similarly named condition, basilar migraine, that also has vestibular symptoms. However, basilar migraine has additional symptoms seen during the early, or aura, phase coming from the brainstem, deep in the brain, such as clumsy movements or confusion. These occur most commonly five minutes to an hour before the headache.

Making the diagnosis of vestibular migraine is challenging, since there are many clinical entities with similar symptoms. There is no conclusive laboratory or radiology tests to confirm the diagnosis. In practice, the diagnosis of probable vestibular migraine is made in people with recurrent migraine symptoms associated with vertigo. Often, treatment is begun when the condition is considered probable, and if the person does not respond well to treatment, a more thorough evaluation is considered.

Treatment for vestibular migraine is broken down into treatment for acute attacks and treatment to prevent attacks. Many neurologists use diazepam (Valium) and similar drugs for acute attacks. Preventive medicines come in many different families, and the choice of the best agent depends often on other conditions the person has. Everyone with migraine should try to find and avoid triggers. This includes eating on a reasonable schedule and good sleep hygiene.

If medications are needed, prescription choices include blood pressure medicines (beta blockers like propranolol and calcium channel blockers), antidepressants and seizure medicines. Over-the-counter options include riboflavin, magnesium, feverfew and coenzyme Q10, all of which have some but not conclusive evidence of benefit superior to placebo.

SENTIMENTS THAT THE COLORS OF ROSES ARE MEANT TO CONVEY

HOW CHOCOLATE BECAME TIED TO VALENTINE’S DAY

Peach: Peach symbolizes intimacy, telling a lover, “Let’s make this a memorable Valentine’s Day.”

Milton Hershey dabbled in commercializing chocolate. Hershey began as a caramel maker, but experimented with covering the caramels in chocolate in 1894. Hershey would go on to develop one of the most successful brands of chocolate in the United States, which included the famous Hershey bar. In 1907, Hershey launched production of tear-drop shaped “kisses.” (The chocolates were given their unusual name because of the “smooching” noise made by the chocolate when being manufactured.)

The kisses became wildly popular and made for affordable chocolate gifts on Valentine’s Day. Many other chocolate manufacturers soon began packaging their chocolates in special boxes for Valentine’s Day. Russell Stover and Whitmans are two such manufacturers who have long specialized in heart-shaped boxes or other decorative Valentine’s gifts.

STRANGE BUT TRUE By Lucie Winborne * In ancient Rome, having a crooked nose was considered a sign of leadership.

FACTS ABOUT FEBRUARY

ECO-FRIENDLY WAYS TO CELEBRATE VALENTINE’S DAY Valentine’s Day is second only to the holiday season with regard to gift giving. Although this day devoted to love and exchanging gifts can be wasteful, that does not mean those with a mind toward green and simple living should ignore the holiday altogether. Valentine’s Day celebrations can be enjoyed in an eco-friendly way that can make this special day even more meaningful to eco-conscious couples.

Despite being the shortest month of the calendar year, February has an interesting history. Early calendars marked the start of the new year in March, but when the second king of Rome, Numa Pompilius, rose to the throne in 713 BC, he synchronized the calendar to the lunar year. That required the addition of January and February.

Understanding food labels is a great first step toward eating healthy.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

By Lucie Winborne * Rose DeWitt Bukater’s fabulously expensive pendant, “The Heart of the Ocean,” featured in James Cameron’s “Titanic,” was not completely fictitious -- it is believed that a rather large sapphire went down with the ship that fateful night. * There is a company called Little Miss Matched that sells packs of mismatched socks. * Syphilis was a major problem in the late 19th and early 20th century. Doctors found that the bacteria that caused it was sensitive to heat, so they thought giving a patient a fever could help get rid of it. How did they induce said fever? With malaria injections! While effective in curing syphilis, some patients unfortunately died from -- you guessed it -- malaria. * Before mercury, brandy was used to fill thermometers.

Exercising outdoors in w inter can be exhilarating, but athletes must prioritize staying w arm and safe for the duration of their w orkouts.

LAWN & LANDSCAPING HARDSCAPE AND HOW TO USE IT Choose a theme. The right style allows hardscaping and softscaping materials to work together. For example, homeowners may want to give their yards an eastern feel, complete with a koi pond and decorative bridge or trellis. A formal English garden, however, may include manicured paths with stepping stones and ornate topiaries. Mixing too many styles together can take away from the overall appeal.

The pros suggest looking at the overall plan of the design, even if all of the work can’t be completed at once. This way the eventual finished project wil be cohesive.

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Nuisance Critters Worry Rural Newcomer DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I am relocating soon to rural Tennessee, in an area that the real estate agent said is filled with critters like raccoons, opossums, woodchucks, foxes, coyotes, muskrats, mink, snapping turtles, venomous snakes, crows, free roaming hogs, stray dogs and cats.

My question is, What are the regulations for dealing with nuisance critters? Are there any restrictions I need to be aware of? I’m not computer literate and don’t know how to look these up online. -- Karl B., via email

DEAR KARL: I’m more of a pet-care specialist than a wildlife specialist, but I looked up some information for you. Tennessee allows landowners to capture nuisance wildlife and either release or euthanize the animal -- unless it’s a protected species. You must use a box trap or other live trap. You can hire a professional to do the trapping for you. And you can call a state wildlife management official for advice, especially if you aren’t sure whether an animal is protected.

To learn more, perhaps someone who is computer savvy can access the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency website for you and search for “wildlife damage control.”

I do hope you’ll relocate rather than eliminate most of the species that you trap. Opossums are becoming endangered, and they’re not ferocious at all; they eat ticks and are immune to Lyme disease. Bats are a threatened species that love to roost in dark, quiet attics. But they also eat tons of mosquitos. We really need these little natural vacuum cleaners around. Snakes keep the rodent population down. Coyotes and bears play their role in balancing the natural environment, even though they are quite scary to discover near your house.

SENIOR NEWS LINE By Matilda Charles Getting the COVID Vaccine When can we get our COVID vaccine? Seniors everywhere are asking this question, and the answers are often vague, wrong or nonexistent.

Per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines, the vaccines will be given first to health care workers, then “frontline essential workers,” seniors in descending order of age and those with high-risk medical conditions. While getting the vaccine to health care workers hasn’t been much of a problem, scheduling seniors has been more problematic.

One of the snags has been with distribution. States often don’t know how many doses they’re going to receive, which has made it difficult to schedule people to be at the vaccine site at a certain time on a certain date.

A more serious problem came to light when batches of vaccine sent to various states were found to be defective because they hadn’t been kept at the right temperature along their journey from manufacturing to vaccination site. In one state, for example, out of 50 boxes of vials, 35 were found to be defective.

All over the country websites have crashed as people have tried to sign up for the vaccine in their area, and many seniors have found the computer program impossible to use.

Do you know how to get on the list to receive your vaccine? Do you know what group in your state is currently allowed to receive the vaccine, or what priority group you’re in? Each state has been allowed to decide what its definitions is for seniors -- over 75, over 70 or over 65.

Your best bet is to contact your doctor’s office. Ask if they have a wait list or can tell you specifically what steps you should take. Call the hospital and your pharmacy. Call your state’s health department.

This is one time where you need to be proactive if you want the vaccine.

This week’s puzzle answer is elsewhere in this paper.

The Crossword Puzzle is provided by Tribune Media Services.

Any questions or comments should be made to 1-800-346-8798.

WASHINGTON INSPIRED PRESIDENTS’ DAY Established in 1800, Presidents’ Day once went by a different name. Known as Washington’s Birthday, which is still the legal name of the holiday, this day was meant to celebrate the first President of the United States, George Washington, whose birthday was February 22. Congress declared that day a federal holiday more than 200 years ago, and eventually the holiday grew to become a celebration of President Abraham Lincoln, who was born on February 12, as well. The holiday is now a celebration of the lives and accomplishments of every U.S. president.

Avon & Caledonia Girl Scouts: Learning and Serving during the Pandemic

BY JEANNE FUSCO

G

irl Scouts in the Avon-Caledonia area has remained healthy even with the restrictions due to the pandemic. This fall the Caledonia troops joined with the Avon troops to form the Ashantee Nation Service Unit. Most troops have been active since fall and presently are working on the annual Girl Scout cookie sale.

This year the new variety is Toast-yay-a French bread inspired cookie dipped in icing. All cookies remain $5 with a portion going to the troop and other to the council to maintain ongoing support to troops. The sale runs thru March 28th. Many wonderful virtual programs have been developed so troops or individual girls can participate at their own comfortable level.

Cadette Troop 51054 They have been working on their Breathe Journey and hosting the candy and cookie sale to earn money for a trip to Lake George when possible.

Cadette Troop 51082 This troop has continued to do community service projects in Avon. In September, the girls chalked positive thinking and welcome back messages on the entrance sidewalks of the elementary and middle schools. In November, we collected food for the Avon Food Pantry and donated it after Thanksgiving to help with making Christmas baskets. We decorated the trees around the circle in December. This month, we will be purchasing items to make care bags for the nursing home residents.

Daisy Troop 50105 This Daisy troop had Anna from Geek Chic come out and talk to the girls about what it takes to be a business owner and how she got started, what it means to have a small business, and what a small business is. Anna also did a Christmas craft with them. Additionally, we did a Nature Walk Scavenger hunt at the Downs and talked about litter and keeping our parks clean. We made sit-upons at the beginning of the year; we also talked about what they were and what their use or purpose is. We participated in the luminaries night.

We had the girls help fill bags, and we placed them out in front of the Avon on the Green. We then sang some carols out in front of the building and had some residents come out to see them.

Daisy troop 50105 yoga class

combat challenges through the pandemic such as digital and social marketing strategies. Also in January, we collected winter coats for a church in downtown Rochester, and in February, we are making Valentine hygiene bags for women at Bethany House. For fun active outings, the girls went rock climbing at the new place in Geneseo called Sunrise Bouldering. In February, we are going to Ninja Warrior.

Junior Troop 51063 This troop completed their Bronze award and Journey by donating the benches they built for the Downs sledding hill. We spread holiday cheer to the local nursing home by caroling outside their windows and making them holiday cards right before Christmas. Senior/Ambassador Troop 51041 Made Christmas wreaths for sale. The girls have a blast doing it and so do the leaders! We are going to start car care and have attended college readiness that was put on by Girl Scouts.

Daisy Troop 54004 So far, the girls have earned the Outdoor Art badge which included fall placemats for Avon Senior Nutrition center and one for themselves, pinecone bird feeders, tree hike, made maracas, working on the Daisy Safety pin, earning the Money Counts leaf, and painting plaster dogs and teddy bears. We celebrated Juliette Low’s birthday with games, and made cards at Christmas for Nutrition Center, as well as coasters for their parents as a gift. We welcomed a new girl and then held an Investiture & Rededication ceremony for all of them. The girls have completed the Girl Scouts of Western NY Feed America patch and made slime to take home.

Brownie Troop 50108 The troop focus continues to be learning more about our community. At our first meeting, we went to the monument in the circle and learned about the soldier at “parade rest.” We have also enjoyed checking out the progress of the mural being painted by artist Shawn Dunwoody, which is near our meeting location, and we have invited him to a meeting.

Cadette Troop 53078 They had a virtual presentation from the Genesee Country Museum on the history of African American Women’s Suffrage, discussing the election and women running for a variety of different leadership positions. We collected Halloween Treats for Troops for the military as well as Thanksgiving themed canned goods for the Avon Food Pantry. Last month, we began the first steps towards a financial business badge. The girls are learning how to plan phases towards earning larger financial goals and ways to

Thank you, COVID testers!

I just went to get a coronavirus test at MCC and was very impressed by the improvements that have been made since I was last there in July. The line moved quickly without any bottlenecks, and the workers were all organized and friendly despite the frigid temperatures. Thank you to everyone out there during the weekend, in the cold, doing their part to put an end to this pandemic. You are appreciated!

Rules of the Road I realize that the moment folks’ step inside local stores, they forget right from left, right of way, and all other common sense, but if you are standing at a closed checkout, removing items from your cart, and abandoning them in a pile because you’re too lazy to put them back yourself, you are not in line. Those of us who are ready to check out don’t want to wait for you to waste our time.

You should have let the other shopper go first, since you were clearly not in line. Seriously, stop talking on cell phones, stop having conversations in the middle of the aisles, stop leaving your carts in other peoples’ way, and get it together before you get to a checkout. It’s pathetic when self-checkout is easier than waiting for you.

Small Red Truck I was out shoveling the end of my driveway on February 3rd around 9 am. It was the heavy stuff that gets plowed back into the driveway from the town plows. A man in a red pickup with a plow stopped to help by plowing my entire driveway.

I do not know who the man was but just want to say thanks again. It was so nice of you to take the time and effort to do this. I really appreciate it and will pay it forward. May good things come your way!

Thanks, Fairport Postal Workers!

A huge Thank You to carriers in Fairport who slogged through the extreme volume and weather to deliver the massive quantities of packages in the past several months. All with a smile! And special kudos to the mail staff manning the counters at the Post Office itself--always pleasant, friendly, professional, and informative despite what must have been incredible pressure.

Your effort is noticed and appreciated!

Thanks again, Neighbor!

Thanks again for my “neighbors” on Brooks Road in West Henrietta for keeping my driveway clear another year.

It is nice they take the time to help. Thanks again for all you do, Kitty E.

With Deepest Gratitude!

Catholic Charities of Steuben/ Livingston would like to recognize members of our community for stepping up to help a client in need. This family had been living in unsafe and unhealthy living conditions for a while. Over the course of 4 months, Catholic Charities worked with our partners in Livingston County to renovate a trailer for this family to live in. These businesses and individuals donated their time and materials to get the trailer in top shape. This includes roofing, flooring, cabinets, appliances,

Grocery Store Angel Thank you, God, and to the nice lady at the grocery store.

I had trouble swiping my card.

I tried at least four times, and it would not work. This wonderful woman paid for my groceries. Thank you so much!

God Bless You!

Where’s the Justice?

Why is the Town of [local town] still holding a pet from her family after almost 8 months?

Why has she been purposely neglected while incarcerated: hosed down, not taken out of her kennel, kept from her meds? Is it breed bias? Politics?

We all know it’s not because she’s guilty; that’s been proven, proven by a professional and the inconsistent stories of the plaintiff. Do you understand the mental and physical torture you’re putting this living being through? We want justice for Vanessa the dog. She needs to be freed and back with her family where she belongs!

To the people involved: you know what you’re doing is wrong.

furniture and more. Our client was extremely grateful to receive this gift, after many setbacks in her life. She expressed her gratitude for this amazing act of kindness, saying that this is her second chance. Thank you to the following individuals and businesses for your amazing and selfless contribution: Aman Roofing, B & L Wholesale Supply, Messner Flooring, Mike Bernard, Mike Shumway, Monroe Piping & Sheet Metal, Reclaimed Home Remodeling, Inc., Regan and Garrett Didas, Smith Lumber, South Seneca Vinyl, St. Mary & Matthew Faith Community, St. Mary & Matthew Men’s Group.

Iroquois Nation To the person who praises the Iroquois Nation example as the precursor of the Constitution, you don’t know American history.

Of the 6 tribes, all but 2 allied themselves with the British Empire during the American Revolution.

Joseph Brant, a Mohawk, led raids on the American settlers, brutally killing civilians, even loyalists like Jane McCrea. These settlers, including children, were tomahawked, burned alive, and scalped. the scalp of Jane McCrea was presented to British General John Burgoyne who authorized these raids. The America you now live in and enjoy, as well as our Constitution, exist despite the Iroquois Nation, not because of it.

RECIPES FOR FUN: If you’re preparing a meal, it could be a good time to teach children of reading age how to review a recipe. Evaluating ingredients to learn how food transforms from raw to cooked or how a dish is created can help kids learn kitchen skills.

FOOD GROUPS FOCUS: Get kids involved in making dinner by setting a rule that each food group must be represented. Give them a warmup activity by asking which food groups are found in family favorites like chicken soup, lasagna or meatloaf. Asking kids to guess which ingredients are used in these dishes and identifying which food group each ingredient belongs to can help them understand dietary balance.
