THE CONNECTION BETWEEN BEER

LENT

In the weeks leading up to Easter, practicing Christians commonly commit to a period of fasting and abstinence known as Lent. This commitment commemorates Christ’s 40-day journey into the desert, and the sacrifices modern day Christians make are meant to replicate those made by Christ duringthatperiod.ManyChristians abstain from alcohol during Lent, but those who do may not realize that beer played a significant role in helping a small community of 17th century monks survive the Lentenfastingseason.Monksfrom the Order of St. Francis of Paola, often referred to as “Paulaner monks,” fasted from all solid foods throughout the season of Lent during the 1600s. According to the Paulaner Brewery, the monks, originally from southern Italy, relocated to Bavaria, once an independent country but now a southern state in Germany, in the 1600s. Their strict religious orders forbade the monks from consuming solid food during Lent, but they still needed nutrients to sustain them. So the monks concocted a strong brew loaded with carbohydrates and nutrients. The monks must have liked the beer, as they continued to brew it and even began selling it in their community. An early doppelbock, the beer was one of the first offerings from the Paulaner Brewery, which opened its doors in1634andremainsopentoday.

Wedding insurance can provide couples who are about to tie the knot with some peace of mind on their big days. Many wedding venues require couples carry liability coverage in the case of accidents, injuries or incidents. But wedding insurance policies may even surprise couples with regard to what they cover.Each policy is different, and couples may be able to customize wedding insurance policies to cover a host of items. Many policies cover couples in the wake of cancellations or postponements due to weather, damage to the facility or even a change of heart on the part of the couple holding the policy. But some policies may provide coverage for couples should their photographers and/or caterers fail to appear.Policies may also cover lost, stolen or damaged items, including equipment rentals, bridal growns, jewelry, and/or gifts. Couples should speak with their wedding venue representative to determine if the venue offers extended coverage and ultimately compare those offerings to policy estimates they receive on their own.

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Leveling Up: Walking with multiple dogs

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I walk my neighbors’ dogs every day a er school. It takes time because I have to walk one dog at a time, then go to the next house, and then the third one. I’d like to make this job a little more efficient by walking all three dogs at the same time. What’s the best way to do this? -- Colin R., Smyrna, Georgia

DEAR COLIN: I can see your dilemma! Walking three dogs separately takes at least one hour, probably two, when you add in the time spent accessing each home, leashing up the dogs and unleashing.

It is possible to walk all three dogs at once, but you have to do two important things first: One, get permission from each neighbor to walk the dogs together, and two, make sure the dogs will get along before you commit.

You may be able to only walk two of them together and the third one alone. And if the neighbors don’t agree, then you’re stuck walking all three separately.

If you do get permission to walk them together, do it on a trial basis. Here are a few tips from professional dog walkers:

• Don’t use retractable leashes when walking multiple dogs. You need full control at all times.

• Leashes can easily get tangled; hold two in one hand and one in the other, or buy a 3-way leash coupler to minimize tangles.

•If one or more dogs gets aggressive or bullying, walk them separately to prevent the problem from getting worse.

•Avoid walking them in areas where a lot of other dogs are present. If all three bolt toward another dog, you may not be able to hang on to them.

Here’s a Tip

* Use a muffin pan to make cookie cups for ice cream or fruit. Just flip your muffin pan over, and press dough over the upturned wells. It will puff up a little, but once it settles, they make very nice bowls. I do this with pizza dough as well. Prebake for a few minutes to form the bowl, then fill with ingredients and complete baking.

* If you can put a tension rod in the cabinet under your sink, you can use it to hang spray bottles for extra storage. It’s amazing how much space clears up, and it’s easy to find the bottle you need.

* Travel a lot? Make use of those shower caps by pairing up shoes and using the shower cap to hold them together while simultaneously protecting your clothes from the shoe bottoms. Smart!

Small Town Shoutout

I wanted to give a small shout out to my small town that in the past few years has done many things for their residents and visitors. From updating/paving the park walkway to adding a disc golf course to new events to redoing a building to a small venue spot, the work hasn’t gone unnoticed by your residents. Kudos!

Wine Sales in Grocery Stores

The grocery stores don’t need to sell wine. They are already dominating the local revenue streams of our communities. Why jeopardize the small wine & liquor stores that help make up our local commercial sectors. It’s just greed on the part of the grocery chains. Write your legislators and say “no” to grocery store wine sales.

Breakfast on a Saturday Morning Brings Me Joy

Handicapped parking

After moving back to Webster 1 1/2 years ago from the Buffalo area, I resumed attending a restaurant in Webster to meet friends and acquaintances from 9:00AM to about 10:30AM to make garrulous conversation. The conversation is all over the place, and it is made up of people in their 70s to early 80s. The number of attendees can vary from 6–12 people. However, adding to this happy merriment is my engaging with a lovely 7 year disabled girl named Delilah. She is brought there by her mom who puts her in a high chair cause she can’t walk and can’t talk too well, but she understands. They sit in a booth about 10 feet down the aisle from our group. That sweet blonde haired little girl has stolen my heart and the others in my group. I wave to her and blow kisses from where I sit and call her name. She then exhibits a smile that enthralls my heart. For the past 3-4 weeks I have brought her candy and dolls. Her mom brings her to our table to interact. Yes, Delilah and friends bring joy to me to start the weekend.

AGAIN, this must be addressed! Monday, a red SUV sped up and quickly pulled in front of me, cutting me off. Then they pulled in the [Department store] (same one as me) and sat in the vehicle for 5 minutes before getting out. My point? In such a hurry to cut me off then sat 5 minutes before getting out. He had parked in a handicapped spot, literally jumped out, bent over, pulled a young child out of a car seat, carried the toddler and briskly walked into the store. PHYSICIANS!! Please do a better job of passing out tags! Seriously, the abuse must stop! This man’s strength did not warrant that close spot by any means. His walking was fantastic. If disabled mentally? Seizures?…he had a young child with him while driving. The excuses must stop, these people know they are abusing this! There must be more spots for the true ambulatory disabled.

TRENDS IN TODAY’S HOMES

Smaller homes: Home sizes in the United States steadily increased for decades, eventually leading to an average of 2,453 square feet in 2014, according to U.S. Census figures. However, Realtor.com reported in 2015 that new construction homes have already begun to shrink by 40 square feet. There seems to be a slight trend toward more modest homes as people consider affordability and maintenance on larger properties. The National Association of Home Builders states buyers are now looking for smaller, more livable homes with flexible floor plans, energy-efficient appliances and plenty of storage space.

The DOE notes that homeowners’ landscaping strategies should be dictated by the climates in which they live.

DID YOU KNOW? When nurses go to work each day, many report to hospitals while others work at private practices. For others, a day at the office takes place at research labs. According to the online nursing resource Nurse.org, research nurses develop and implement studies to investigate and provide information on new medications, vaccinations and medical procedures. Research nurses, sometimes referred to as clinical nurse researchers or nurse researchers, typically have advanced degrees, and many first work as research assistants, clinical data collectors and/or clinical research monitors to gain some practical experience as they pursue or consider pursuing their degrees.Some research nurses even conduct independent research,though Nurse.org notes that such professionals need advanced degrees such as an MSN or Ph.D. to pursue such a path. More information about becoming a research nurse can be found at www.Nurse.org.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Treatment Given for Dry Eyes Fails to Improve Condition

DEAR DR. ROACH: I developed chronic dry eyes after having cataract surgery on both eyes. I consulted an ophthalmologist who specialized in treating dry eyes. She prescribed Restasis, but my condition didn’t improve after three months of use. She then switched me to Xiidra and instructed me to use it for two more refills, which lasted for nine months.

At the end of my conversation with the dry eye specialist, she said that she had done everything she could for me. I inquired about the Miebo drug that was recently approved or the LipiFlow procedure. She mumbled something, then said “goodbye” and “good luck.” Was she openly admitting her incompetence?

-- K.J.W.

ANSWER: It’s hard for me to believe that a dry eye specialist wouldn’t know about the new treatments available in their area of expertise, and I can only guess that there was some kind of miscommunication. As a generalist, I have to know at least a little bit about a whole lot of conditions, rather than a specialist who knows a whole lot about just a few conditions.

For most people with dry eyes, starting with artificial tears is usual and effective, but I certainly have had patients use artificial tears many times daily and still have unpleasant symptoms. I also recommend trying to avoid dry areas, especially with high airflow.

Most people with dry eyes have blockages in the meibomian glands, which secrete an oily substance that helps prevent the eye fluid from drying. It also forces the lacrimal glands to make more tears. (This leads to the paradox of people having red, watery eyes when they really have dry eye disease.) Trying to unblock the meibomian glands with baby shampoo and warm water is another treatment generalists like me often try. But when these therapies aren’t working, an ophthalmologist is essential. An ophthalmologist can do an exam to be sure if the meibomian glands are blocked. Among the treatments they have available are the ones you tried: cyclosporine (Restasis), which works well for a minority of people; lifitegrast (Xiidra), which decreases inflammation; varenicline (Tyrvaya), which increases tear production; and Miebo (perfluorohexyloctane), which works by reducing evaporation.

If the problem really is the blocked glands, doctors can also consider more powerful treatments to unblock them. One of these, Lipiflow, is a heat-based treatment. My colleagues in ophthalmology, to whom I refer, tell me that this is often successful, although the process may need to be repeated -- sometimes every six months and sometimes longer. Ophthalmologists can also place plugs to reduce the loss of tears through drainage.

WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT NERVE INJURIES

What are the symptoms of peripheral nerve injuries?

Autonomic nerves: Excessive sweating, changes in blood pressure, an inability to tolerate heat, and gastrointestinal issues are potential indicators of autonomic nerve injuries.

WHAT TO DO AFTER A DENTAL EXTRACTION

After a tooth extraction, your healing time will depend on your self-care during the first 24 hours. The tooth socket will form a blood clot as it heals, and it is important not to disturb the socket or blood clot. Even if the socket is bleeding, do not rinse your mouth out because it can remove the clot. Avoid chewing in that area of the mouth and keep it clean from food and debris. You should still brush and floss your teeth after an extraction, taking extra caution around the extraction site. Following the procedure, spend the rest of the day resting and avoid exercise and social commitments. Try to remain in an upright position to help with clotting. Instead of jumping right back into a busy work schedule following your dental procedure, take some time off and pamper yourself. Your body

deserves it! You can always count on us to provide you with ideas for home care, answers to your questions, and excellence in dental care from a caring staff committed to your comfort, well-being, and sunny smile. Call us at BATAVIA FAMILY DENTAL for an appointment (585.343.4246). Emergencies are also welcome at our full-service, state-of-the-art dental office located at 6 Batavia City Centre.

P.S. If the tooth socket bleeds after an extraction, apply pressure with a clean cotton cloth but do not rinse your mouth during the first 24 hours, after which a saltwater rinse can help speed healing.

UNIQUE WAYS TO REDUCE CANCER RISK EVERY DAY

Drink more fluids. Drinking more fluids is one of the easier things people can do every day to reduce their cancer risk. The American Cancer Society recommends individuals consume eight cups of water per day, but millions likely fall far short of that amount. That’s unfortunate, as research presented at the American Association for Cancer Research International Conference on Frontiers in Cancer Prevention Research in 2011 found that high fluid intake was associated with a 24 percent reduced bladder cancer risk among men. In addition, a separate study funded by the Strauss Institute and published in 2020 in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found that women with breast cancer consumed less water and total fluids than women who did not have breast cancer. The researchers concluded more investigation into the link between drinking more water and reducing breast cancer risk is necessary, but noted that drinking water is harmless, convenient and beneficial to many aspects of health.

Comedy, Community, and Connection: Kevin Markman Helps Lighten Life in Rochester and Beyond

BY SUZIE WELLS

Meet Kevin Markman, a multitalented individual whose journey intertwines social work, art therapy, educational administration, and the captivating world of comedy.

Markman’sstorybeginsinRochester,wherehespenthisformative years before embarking on educational pursuits that would shape his eclectic career. With master’s degrees in social work, art therapy, and educational administration, Markman dedicated half his career to community non-profits and the other half to school counseling and administration. He supervised the art therapy department at the Hochstein School of Music for a decade, and has had a private practice counseling individuals, families, and couples for 25 years now.

He says two of his children “put the Aww in autism,” and his partner’s three children are adorable as well. He says, “I love art, photography, social media, droning, and travel. I currently have almost two million views…on Google Maps.” Markman’s favorite comedians include Patrice O’Neal, Daniel Sloss, Sarah Silverman, Joel James, Mark Normand, Yolanda Smilez, and Talent.

Markman says he came late to comedy in his 40s, when he happened upon Rochester’s comedy community, taking classes at Writers & Books over and over until he was ready to go to a stage outside class.

en, “It took many more years to get funny,” he says.

What drew Markman to comedy was more than justthepursuitoflaughter; it was a quest to find his community. Comedy powerfully brings people together, upli s spirits, and helps “make the world just a little bit better.” He adds, “ ere is nothing better than when a crowd laughs together.”

Markman performs at awidearrayoflocalvenues and hosts open mics at Writers & Books, Boulder Coffee, and OTR Woodfire Tavern “that provide comics an opportunity to get better and crowds regular places [to] get their laughter.” He produced and performed in some of the most sold shows for the Rochester Fringe Fest with Stand Up for Drag. He’s proud to have been nominated for best male comedian at the ROC awards. And he is proud to have helped raise $20k for the Golisano Autism Center in a comedy show last year (and looks forward to the sequel this year). Markman has also performed in Hawaii, Arizona, Florida, New York City, and beyond.

Collaborating with It’s Just Comedy, the Basement, JokeZoom, and non-profits, Markman looks forward to his tenth year of comedy and to hopefully “keep getting funnier, as self-awareness is essential for comedians, and I know where I stand so that next I can be funny

enough to headline small shows, feature bigger ones, and continue to host anywhere.”

For Markman, the essence of successful comedy lies in hard work, camaraderie, and a relentless pursuit of laughter. He says comedians must keep the mindset that “We are all better if we support each other.” Cra ing impeccable lineups, protecting audience sanctity, and navigating unexpected setbacks with finesse are all part of a comedian’s repertoire.

Markman emphasizes the importance of nurturing supportive communities, both on and off stage, and staying true to your comedic voice. His advice to aspiring comedians resonates with authenticity: find your voice, embrace the joy of performance, and above all, be funny. “If you’re not having a great time, neither will the audience.”

Producing shows for the past nine years has been educational, Markman says. Beyond the necessary humor, he insists comics be friendly to the other comics, the audience, the venue, and the host. Besides that, he seeks a variety of comics for his shows, so there is something for everyone, “the comics are happy, the venue is happy, and the audience is happy.”

Looking ahead, Markman envisions a future filled with laughter, community, and boundless creativity. Whether through therapy or comedy, online communities or global stages, his goal remains steadfast—to spread joy, to connect hearts, and to leave a lasting impact on the world, one laugh at a time.

In the colorful mosaic of Rochester’s comedy scene, Kevin Markman stands as a beacon of laughter, a testament to the transformative power of humor, and a reminder that amidst life’s trials, there’s always room for laughter, love, and connection.

“We do not free ourselves from something by avoiding it, but only by living through it....” ~

Cesare Pavese

Life for each of us is certain to consist of both pleasant and unpleasant things. We wish we were free of all the unpleasantness which could be anything from an unfortunate physical characteristic to our economic circumstances or other attribute over which we have no control.

We could go through life in bondage to this situation, avoiding it as much as possible. Or, we can free ourselves by facing up to the facts and recognizing that we must simply live through it.... and then refuse to worry about it!

By making all their own funeral arrangements themselves, well in advance of need, many people achieve peace of mind. There are other advantages, too. Ask our staff to explain... no obligation.

Text 585-314-4379

Adults who decide to return to school after a long layoff are following a popular path. According to the education resource Education Corner, a growing number of career colleges and vocational training schools now offer bachelor’s and graduate degree programs geared toward working adults. People return to school for various reasons, including the chance to learn new skills or further develop their existing skills. Some return to school because they are changing careers, while others may have lost a job or desire a promotion and feel that attaining a higher level of education or new skills can make reaching that goal more likely.

Adults who hope to return to school might be surprised to learn that the educational landscape has changed considerably since they were last in a classroom.
