* For years your dentist has no doubt advised you to be sure to floss. But the benefits extend beyond your teeth. Researchers have discovered that flossing can also help your memory. It prevents gum disease, which prevents stiff blood vessels, which in turn cause memory issues.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* When packing cookies in a single layer, I trace the shape of my container on parchment paper using the lid as a template. It’s pretty easy, and it fits exactly.

* Keep a small wastepaper basket or shredder near your entrance if possible. You can get rid of paper items you don’t need (think, junk mail) before it even makes it into the house. This is especially important if you tend to let things pile up, like I do! -- R.F. in Louisiana

* For scratch paper, I use the back side of my kids’ extra art pages. We choose the best to display, then they chop up the rest into small booklets, which they staple at the top. And we have notepads! -- M.L. in Iowa

* Keep a map or globe in your family or TV room. This way, when a place is mentioned on the news or in another program, you can find it on the map. This is a great thing to do with kids, but it’s handy and worthwhile for anyone. -- via email

* If you have a very stinky trash can, scrub it with a paste made from baking soda and just a bit of water. It works as a mild abrasive. Then fill a spray bottle with plain white vinegar and spray. It should foam for a moment. Let it sit for about 10 minutes, then rinse well with hot water. Clean and deodorized!

* We have large buckets that store random toys on our back porch. It seems that whenever we’d touch the buckets to get a toy, a horde of mosquitoes would erupt. There’s no water, so we didn’t know what to do. And we didn’t want to douse it with chemicals, as it’s filled with kid stuff. A neighbor suggested we put a few dryer sheets in each one, and they really have worked. I guess the bugs don’t like the smell!

WEAR A BASE LAYER. A thin T-shirt is a must as a base layer, better if it is made of fabric that wicks away moisture. There are even some that are made to be water repellent and stain resistant with anti-odor properties for those in warmer climes. Since this is the layer that is in direct contact with your skin, you want something that will allow moisture to escape as you sweat.

PAW’S CORNER

Can Cats Eat Easter Eggs?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: We were coloring Easter eggs a few days ago, and our cat Jake kept begging underneath the table. Now that we’ve got lots of le over boiled eggs, I’m wondering if it would be safe to mix a few into his food?

--

Sarah L., Panama City, Florida

Dear Sarah: Because they’re hardboiled, it’s completely safe to feed some egg to Jake. Just remember to peel the shell o rst!

Eggs are a healthy protein that cats can eat. e American Veterinary Medical Association recommends that they always be cooked. Feeding raw egg to a cat can make it sick due to the potential for bacteria or other pathogens that are on the shell to transfer to the egg.

Whether the cooked egg is boiled, scrambled, poached or microwaved doesn’t matter. Don’t add seasonings to the egg, though. Salt, pepper and other spices can upset a cat’s small tummy.

If you’ve never fed eggs to Jake before, only give him a small amount at rst. Add a teaspoon to his regular food or to the side of his dish. Monitor his behavior a er he eats the egg. If he has an allergy to eggs, he may scratch excessively, act agitated or throw up. If he seems ne, you can give him more next time.

Here’s a cool nding about eggs and cats: Researchers at Purina reported in 2019 that coating a cat’s food in a special egg powder formulation helped stop people from having an allergic reaction to cats! A protein in cats’ saliva is responsible for 95% of cat allergies in people. Not surprisingly, Purina has developed an entire product line of cat food based on this nding, called LiveClear. So, if you su er from allergies around cats, this might bring some relief.

Celebrating ALL MOMS

SUNDAY, MAY 14TH 2023

The tradition of Mother’s Day in the United States dates back more than a century to 1908, when West Virginia native Anna Jarvis held a memorial service to honor her mother, who had passed away three years earlier, and all mothers in Grafton, West Virginia. Mother’s Day would ultimately become a national holiday in the United States in 1914, thanks in large part to Jarvis’ campaigning. As Jarvis, who never married and never had children of her own, grew old, she criticized Mother’s Day as overly commercial, even trying to have it removed from the calendar. Those efforts failed, and Mother’s Day remains popular now, more than 100 years after the idea for it was conceived.

A SWEET TREAT FOR GET-TOGETHERS

Yields 64

Crust

21/2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cups powdered sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

3/4 cups butter or margarine, melted

Filling

3 cups pecan halves, divided

2 cups packed brown sugar

3 eggs

4 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

Powdered sugar, optional

Preheat oven to 350 F. For crust, combine flour, powdered sugar and baking soda in a batter bowl. Add butter; mix until crumbly. Lightly press crumb mixture over bottom of stoneware bar pan; roll lightly. Bake 15 minutes; remove from oven to a cooling rack.

Meanwhile for filling,reserve 1 cup of the pecans for garnish; chop remaining pecans. Combine chopped pecans, brown sugar, eggs, butter, vanilla, and salt; mix well. Pour filling over warm crust, spreading to edges of pan. Arrange remaining pecan halves over filling. Bake 17 to 19 minutes, or until filling is set in center. Remove from oven; cool completely.

Sprinkle with additional powdered sugar, if desired. Cut into 32 squares using a utility knife; cut each square in half diagonally.

Honey is a natural wonder that can be equally useful in the kitchen and in the medicine cabinet.

HOME IMPROVEMENT

CORRAL ENTRYWAY CLUTTER

The entryway to a home is the first thing guests experience when coming inside. It also can be the first place residents drop their belongings after long days at school or work. As a result, entryways can quickly be consumed by clutter. Taming such messes takes a mixture of ingenuity and planning. Homeowners hoping to clear their entryways of clutter must first decide what they want to get out of the space. Will it simply be a decorative spot with photos and other home decor on display? Or is functionality the primary goal? Once that decision has been made, take inventory of which items, such as shoes, keys, umbrellas or coats, need to be in the area, which don’t (i.e., old mail). To make things more organized, rearrange the former while removing the latter. Next it is time to assess storage needs and what’s already available. User-friendly storage items may need to be purchased to make the room as functional as possible.

REASONS

There are plenty of reasons to plant trees. Trees provide a natural form of shade, reducing air temperature by blocking the sun’s rays. This can reduce reliance on air conditioning systems and make it more comfortable to spend time outdoors during the summer.

North Carolina State University College of Agriculture & Life Sciences says trees absorb and block noise and reduce glare. They also can trap dust, pollen and smoke. Trees also absorb carbon dioxide and potentially harmful gasses from the air. One large tree can supply a day’s worth of oxygen for as many as four people, while also storing 13 pounds of carbon per year.

Cipro Prescription No

Longer the First-Line Treatment for UTIs

DEAR DR. ROACH: I was diagnosed with a UTI on my yearly physical urinalysis, but I had no symptoms. I was prescribed Cipro. The five pages of warnings attached to the prescription scared me! So, I checked the FDA and Mayo Clinic websites. Both said that the “risks outweigh benefits” and it “should not be the first choice to treat a UTI.” But my doctor says to take it, so I will -- 500 mg twice a day for seven days.

Possible side effects include tendon ruptures (including the aorta), nerve damage and more. Scary! I am 71 and in good health with high blood pressure as my only problem, but it’s under control. I wasn’t told if my UTI is complicated or uncomplicated, but I assume uncomplicated, as my blood work, including kidney tests, were all normal.

Is this drug safe? Why does the FDA say not to prescribe this as the first choice? -- C.J.

ANSWER: There is a lot wrong here.

First off, asymptomatic bacteria in the urine does not normally get treated, so I wouldn’t have recommended treatment in the first place. I’m not even sure why your doctor ordered a urinalysis -- it’s not recommended as a screening test for most.

Second, I agree with your research that ciprofloxacin (Cipro) should not be the first-line treatment for symptomatic urine infections. Ciprofloxacin does increase risk of tendon rupture very slightly (three to four cases per 100,000 people treated); may damage the aorta (eight cases per 100,000 in one study, while another large study showed no risk); and may cause neuropathy in one case per 150,000.

Resistance to drugs like ciprofloxacin has been increasing. Other choices, like nitrofurantoin, trimethoprim/ sulfamethoxazole or cephalexin, have more effectiveness with less risk of toxicity. That’s why Cipro is no longer a first-line choice. But it can be hard for doctors to unlearn behaviors.

Usually, Cipro is effective and doesn’t cause side effects, but practicing evidence-based medicine means changing behaviors to reflect new information, even if your personal experience has generally been good. An individual doctor isn’t likely to see damage to tendons, aorta or nerves, but if all doctors changed their behavior, there would be even fewer of these rare events.

When it is used, a short course of ciprofloxacin is normally prescribed for three days, not seven, for uncomplicated urine infections in women. The less a person uses this drug, the lower the risk of these rare but severe side effects. Three days is normally sufficient.

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.

HOW TOOTH POLISHING WORKS

Teeth are almost always polished at the end of a dental cleaning, but have you ever wondered why it’s done? Dental polishing includes several benefits such as removing plaque and stains, smoothing the surface of teeth, making teeth look shiny and clean, and preventing gum disease. During a dental cleaning, plaque is first removed through the scaling process. Any remaining plaque is removed during the polishing phase using a rubber cup and polishing paste or air polishing with water and baking soda. Polishing helps remove stains from substances like coffee, wine, and tobacco. For many people, polishing is mostly cosmetic, but it also reduces the level of bacteria inthemouth,helpingtopreventcavities and gum disease.

Want to keep your mouth feeling clean, with sparkling teeth and healthy gums?

Start with brushing and flossing at home as part of your daily routine, and continue with regular checkups and teeth cleanings and polishing at our dental office at BATAVIA FAMILY DENTAL. We strive to make you feel at home when you visit our practice at 6 Batavia City Centre, where we combine the latest dental technology with a friendly and relaxing environment. Maximize your smile powerbycallingusat 585.343.4246. We’ll give you a reason to smile!

P.S.While baking soda is used in some toothpastes, it should not be used to polish teeth at home. Using abrasive materials on your teeth can cause enamel loss and tooth damage.

STAY SAFE IN BRIGHT DRIVING CONDITIONS

Weather often contributes to motor vehicle accidents. Snow, rain and other factors that compromise drivers’ vision can make driving hazardous, but there’s a dark side to sunny skies as well.

Glare from the sun can compromise drivers’ vision and lead to driving mishaps, regardless of drivers’ experience or skill level. The sun can pack a powerful punch any time during the day, but can be especially hazardous in the early morning sunrise and late-afternoon sunset.

A 2017 study published in the journal Medicine titled, “Life-threatening motor vehicle crashes in bright sunlight” looked at the risks posed by bright sunlight. Researchers found that the risk of a life-threatening crash was 16 percent higher during bright sunlight than during normal weather. Researchers concluded that bright sunlight may create visual illusions that lead to driver error, including poor distance judgement.

Plentifulsunlightisoftenahallmarkofspringandsummer,butsun-blindness is a real concern for drivers. As anyone who has turned into blazing sun only to discover their windshield has been rendered opaque by sun glare can attest, driving on sunny days can be challenging. Unfortunately, the sun might create substantial glare during rush hour, making driving during these times more dangerous and accidents more likely.

How to pack a suitcase: Roll pants and tops, adding to suitcase first, toward the handle side. Then add heavy items (shoes, boots) toward the wheel end. Make sure you choose the right size case for the trip; too much room will cause items to shift around.

ERIE CANAL STEWARDS GIVE BACK BY WATER OR TOWPATH

BY SUZIE WELLS

Our very own Erie Canal will celebrate its bicentennial (200 years!) in 2025. We in the Rochester area have such a special treasure right in our backyard. We can pick from a variety of quaint, welcoming towns to launch canal trail adventures, whether we go by foot, by bike, or by water vessel of various kinds. ough I certainly enjoy kayaking the canal as well, I love the versatility and year-round adventure of walking the Erie Canal towpath, the pedestrian/bike trail on the north side of the canal.

In the spring, summer, and fall, thousands of people traverse this towpath, but I truly love hiking in all weather. Don’t tell my mom, but I even like walking in pelting rain and sleet. I may end up sopping wet or with a face red from the wind and force, but with appropriate outerwear, it is incredible to experience the joys and power of Mother Nature.

So yes, even in winter, I love walking the canal trail. e canal surface is beautifully frozen, and I get lost in the silence or human noise bu ering snow a ords the winter warrior.

Now that spring is upon us (even if snow may still await us), many more people will take to the path even before the canal waters open for the year (locks operate starting May 19th).

In a recent assignment, I interviewed Sara Catalano and Beth Walker, Rochester area residents who are Instagram sensations, Two Gals on the Canal, and I learned about the Erie Canal Waterway Volunteer Stewardship program. e Erie Canal needs our help both on the water and on the towpath. So many of us enjoy the beauty of the canal, and they need volunteers to help maintain it for all of us.

e Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor began the stewardship program in 2021 in anticipation of the 2025 bicentennial, aiming for full coverage, 450 miles of stewardship along the Erie, Cayuga-Seneca, Champlain, and Oswego canals. is program seeks volunteer individuals, families, community groups, and organizations to keep an eye on their designated (approximately ten mile long) sections of the canal.

Volunteer stewards help keep their section tidy, picking up litter, pruning overgrowth, and raking out debris around docks and shorelines. ey report damage, issues, and invasive species they

nd. ey also share success stories and interact with trail users, answering questions about the water trail and nearby communities. Volunteers visit their section at least twice a month between May 1st and October 31st for at least one calendar year. According to the Heritage Corridor, “Iconic trails and waterways rely upon stewardship e orts to develop and maintain destination appeal. It is this intentional, ongoing maintenance and care that make quality trails – and lasting memories – possible.”

Steward rewards include enjoying the outdoors with fun on the trail, meeting visitors from across the state and the world, joining a growing community of stewards caring for one of NY’s most iconic waterways, as well as a trail guidebook and map set and some sweet Canalway swag.

A er the Two Gals on the Canal, Sara and Beth, nished their endto-end paddle of the canal in 2020, Sara says they were “so excited to stay involved with our canal community that it was a natural next step for us to become stewards for a section of the waterway from Newark to Lyons in Wayne County.”

Sara and Beth spent the last two seasons clearing garbage from the waterway and launch sites in their section, chatting with boaters, and getting to know their section’s awesome lock operators. ey send a “shout out to Locks 27, 28a, and 28b!” Sara says, “It has been a wonderful way to give back to our community and to help keep the canal clean and accessible for others to enjoy.”

Volunteer steward applications will be accepted until June 15th for the 2023 season. For more information visit https://eriecanalway. org/explore/watertrail/stewardship or contact the Stewardship Program Manager Mona Caron at mona_caron@partner.nps.gov or 518-237-7000 x204. To volunteer as a towpath steward, visit ptny. org.

Sara and Beth love talking about the Erie Canal and are happy to share their story as paddlers or stewards to groups or schools. Follow them on Instagram @twogalsonthecanal and send a DM if you’d like to connect.

SENIOR NEWS

By Matilda Charles

Is AARP Membership Worth Having?

I remember feeling uneasy when the rst AARP envelope showed up in my mailbox. It was one thing to quietly hit the Big Five-O, and it was another thing to realize that I was then eligible for membership in a group for seniors.

It took a little while, but I did sign up. Over the years I’ve stayed. e benets are worth it. Here are a few:

I get a discount on my cellphone plan for having an AARP membership. e list of bene ts and discounts keeps growing, many of them local. Rental cars and travel, insurance of all kinds, owers and groceries, transmissions and tires, paint ... and pizza.

ere’s the Smart Driver online safety course that, once you pass it, could save you money on your auto insurance.

e monthly newspaper, the AARP Bulletin, is worth reading for the information it contains: money, investing, senior news and events in my state, government a airs, Social Security and health. en there’s the bi-monthly AARP magazine, with a wide variety of articles, from dieting and money management to tests that predict cancer, places to retire and much more.

e two publications are worth the $16 price of membership by themselves because of the information they present.

AARP has an app now with good instructions on how to install it.

If you sign up for AARP membership (the rst year is reduced to $12), it will likely take a few months for your publications to start up. If you change your address, the same thing might happen, depending on where in the publishing cycle your change occurs. If you suspect something has gone astray, call them at 888-687-2277. Meanwhile, you can read both of them online at the AARP website: aarp.org.

What interests me the most today is the 25% o discount on a rst order from Silver Cuisine by bistroMD, especially the low sodium meals.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

By Lucie Winborne

* In 1862, the King of Siam offered Abraham Lincoln many elephants on the grounds that a “country as great as the United States should not be without elephants.” President Lincoln politely declined.

* “Digging a hole to China” is theoretically possible if you start in Argentina.

* A flower that smells like chocolate? Yep, but you’ll have to limit your enjoyment of this dark-red Mexican native to sniffing, as the “cosmos atrosanguineus,” or “chocolate cosmos,” isn’t edible.

Dish Soap For The Grubs

As your lawn starts its spring growth, watch for brown patches that never turn green. Dead patches could be caused by grubs feeding on the roots in the fall. Dig up square-foot sections of sod to a depth of about two inches in several areas in your yard. Next, examine the soil for short, fat, whitish Cshaped worms. If you find 10 or more grubs per square foot you should treat your lawn. To treat 1,000 square feet of grass, dilute two tablespoons of liquid dish soap in a gallon of water and spray it on the lawn, preferably immediately after a rainfall. This will cause the grubs to come to the surface, where you can collect them if the birds don’t do the job for you. Repeat the treatment weekly until the grubs stop surfacing.

DID YOU KNOW?

Once a term that dominated newspaper headlines and environmental discourse, “global warming” is now heard far less frequently. Many may assume global warming has been rebranded as “climate change,” but the two are not one and the same. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, global warming refers exclusively to the Earth’s rising surface temperature, while climate change includes global warming but also its side effects. Such side effects include the melting of the world’s glaciers and the growing frequency of drought and heavier rainstorms. Global warming is also used most often to refer to warming caused by humans, while climate change is a term used when discussing environmental changes that are human-caused or natural.

Poetry features

I love the feature interview with local poets in the Hometown Stories. It seems no one knows about the poets and writers around here, but we really have a lot of quality writers and writer groups in the greater Rochester area. I hope this helps people get out there and enjoy the culture we really have a lot of around here. Happy national poetry month, everyone!

The Kindness of Strangers

Checking out from grocery shopping Saturday, I was $4.00 short. I began searching in my cart for an item to return. Then the cashier said, "All Set." Feeling dumbfounded I looked up at her. She said the couple behind me paid the remainder. The husband said he'd been in my situation before, so they paid the $4.00 I owed. I thanked them, while still feeling stunned. Bless Your Kind Hearts.

Thank You Brockport Emergency Responders

On March 25th when high winds and rain were buffeting our area, a maple tree smashed through our roof. Unsure how to proceed, we called 911, and the immediate response from local agencies was exemplary. We would like to sincerely thank the Brockport Fire Dept., the Brockport Police Dept., and the Brockport Code Enforcement Office. Their quick assessment of the damage and instruction on what needed to happen saved us much further damage and allowed us to move forward.

We were then able to locate an arborist to remove the tree and a contractor to brace and tarp the opening. A sincere thanks to Lusk Tree Service and Emergency Enclosures Inc. for responding on short notice and each doing such a careful and thorough job. The Alvitos

Highway Visibility

Many times while driving you will see highway signs such as Stop signs or Hospital signs blocked by low hanging branches or bushes that have grown larger. Or you may see weeds that have grown up at intersections, making it hard to see traffic to the left and right. Highway department employees - make a concerted effort to see these impediments. Sitting high in your trucks may not give you the same visibility issues that a car would encounter.

Shoppers

If vehicles at shopping centers are required to stop at cross walks why don’t shoppers use them? How about those pushing their carts down the middle of the parking aisles. You’re putting yourself at risk by doing this. Don’t blame the driver if you’re in the wrong.

Ungrateful Wedding Couples

What is with some of the younger generation of wedding couples and newlyweds? Whether it is a family member, friend or coworker - you get invited to their wedding, you attend and/or send a generous gift, then nothing! No verbal or written thank you, no tweet or message of thanks. They are quick to cash your check but with no appreciation or acknowledgement sent! This is so rude, inconsiderate and lazy! What a bad example for the younger generation of couples that do!

Q&A Master Gardeners with the

What can I do to start prepping my garden for plants I started indoors if I want to be kind to the critters still bedding in the soil?

Protecting soil critters such as natural soil bacteria, fungi, and other microbes is a lofty goal for your garden. I would consider covering the garden area with some type of organic mulch (straw, leaf litter, bark mulch, etc.). This will discourage early weeds and help preserve moisture later after your plants are in. The mulch should be easily moved aside to let the area to be planted dry out a bit just prior to planting. When ready to plant your seedlings, dig a hole big enough for each plant, leaving the rest of

the soil undisturbed.

Harry Hellwig, Master Gardener Volunteer

When should I start seeds (indoors or outdoors) if the packages say before or after the last frost? How do I know when the last frost will be if the weather’s always changing?

There is an average last frost date for each plant hardiness zone with May 15 the date for zone 5 (Livingston County); Monroe County is zone 6 with an average last frost of May 1.

An average last frost date is not a guarantee against frost. As this date approaches, you need to carefully watch the long-range weather forecast. If there is no frost nor night temperatures below 45° in that forecast, you will probably be safe to plant. You also need to consider daytime temperatures: if several upcoming days will only have high

temperatures in the 50’s, you should wait a few days for warmer weather. Memorial Day weekend is a traditional safe planting date. By that time, there very little risk of cold weather that will harm your plants. But check the forecast to be sure.

NOTICE OF INTENT TO REQUEST RELEASE OF FUNDS (NOIRROF)

April 21, 2023

New York State Homes & Community Renewal (HCR)

38-40 State Street

Albany, New York 12207

(518) 474-6677

On or a er May 1, 2023, New York State Homes & Community Renewal (HCR) will submit a request to the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the release of $600,000 of HOME funds under Title II of the Cranston-Gonzalez National A ordable Housing Act (NAHA) of 1990, in accordance with section 288 (42 U.S.C. 12838), to authorize Bishop Sheen Ecumenical Housing Foundation, Inc. to undertake a program known as Sheen Housing 2022 HOME, for purposes of providing funds for the cost of the rehabilitation of 24 single-family homes on scattered sites in Allegany, Cayuga, Chemung, Livingston, Ontario, Schuyler, Seneca, Steuben, Tioga, Tompkins, Wayne, Yates Counties, NY with an estimated total project cost of $710,000.

e 2022 HOME LPA Program will use HOME funds from 2022 awards to fund a variety of activities through partnerships with counties, municipalities and non-pro t community-based housing organizations, which are referred to as Local Program Administrators (LPA). Each LPA works within a speci c geographic area – usually a county or municipality.

e Program provides funds to acquire, rehabilitate or construct housing or to provide assistance to low- and moderate-income home-buyers and renters. Funds must be distributed in accordance with needs and priorities identi ed in the State’s Consolidated Plan.

e proposed activities that are the subject of this Notice are Categorically Excluded from National Environmental Policy Act requirements under HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58(a)(3)(i). e speci c LPA Programs that are the subject of this Notice do not constitute every LPA Program that is proposed for inclusion within the 2022 New York State HOME LPA Program. A full listing of the 2022 HOME LPA Programs is available at http://www.hcr.ny.gov/Funding/ Awards/.

is is the rst tier of review in a 2-tiered process. e speci c addresses of homes are not known at this time because the participating property owner identi cation process is ongoing. erefore, under 24 CFR Part 58.15 (Tiering) and 24 CFR Part 58.32 (Project Aggregation), HCR will use a tiered approach and Tier 2 site speci c reviews will be completed for those laws and authorities not addressed in the Tier 1 broad review for each address under this program when addresses become known. No physical work will begin on properties until all levels of environmental review are complete and found to be in compliance. Tier 1 review addresses speci c environmental factors for which compliance has been documented, regardless of speci c site locations. It prevents repeating the same compliance factors on a Tier 2 site-speci c basis, once all participating homeowners are known.

An Environmental Review Record (ERR) that documents the environmental determinations for this Program is available and may be obtained by emailing John.leahy@hcr.ny.gov.

Tier 2 Site Speci c Review: e site speci c reviews will cover all the laws and authorities not resolved in the broad Tier 1 review as discussed in the ERR that is available for public inspection. Mitigation Measures/Conditions/Permits (if any): Template Tier 2 forms are included in the ERR that is available for public inspection. e Templates include the mitigation measures, conditions and/or permits that will be complied with, if applicable, at each project site that is chosen.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

Any individual, group, or agency may submit written comments on the ERR(s) to John Leahy, Environmental Analysis Unit, NYS Homes & Community Renewal, 38-40 State Street, Albany, New York, 12207 via email at John.leahy@hcr. ny.gov. Please note to which LPA your comment pertains in your correspondence. All comments received by April 28, 2023 will be considered by HCR prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds.

ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION

HCR certi es to HUD that Mr. John Leahy in his capacity as Certifying O cer consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satis ed. HUD’s approval of the certi cation satis es its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities, and allows the applicable LPA to use Program funds.

OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS

HUD will consider objections to its release of funds and HCR’s certi cation received by May 16, 2023 or for a period of een days following its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases:

(a) the certi cation was not executed by the Certifying O cer of HCR; (b) HCR has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or nding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the project have committed funds or incurred costs not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by HUD; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written nding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58) and shall be addressed to the following HUD o ce and sent via email.

EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY

Into every life some rain must fall. We all suffer adversities of various kinds. We can meet these misfortunes with courage and fortitude or we can grovel in self-pity and try to find an easy way out, even if it means dodging our responsibilities.

Mere adversity never killed anyone. We live through it and usually, when the problem is finally resolved, it turns out to have been less awful than we imagined. We can stand a great deal if we are proud of the way we do it.

Families of all faiths are assured of perfectly appropriate services when they place their trust in us. No one is ever turned away for lack of funds. When the need arises, call us first.

When choosing coverage, you will no doubt be asked if you prefer term insurance or permanent insurance. Term insurance is the least expensive life insurance, and such policies only last for a predetermined number of years. Men and women may purchase life insurance policies if they only want life insurance until they retire or until their children reach adulthood. Permanent insurance is more expensive and will last from the moment you purchase the policy until your death. Many people choose permanent life insurance policies so the money their beneficiaries receive upon their death can be used to pay estate taxes. In addition, there is an investment component to permanent insurance policies, as a portion of the premiums on such policies is invested (policies will spell out how the money is invested) and allowed to grow tax-free so long as the policy is open. Term insurance only provides protection with no investments.

QUALITIES TO LOOK FOR IN A POST-RETIREMENT JOB

Pressure-free: Regardless of what retirees did for a living prior to calling it a career, chances are they dealt with work-related stress. In fact, the American Stress Institute reports that 83 percent of workers in the United States suffer from work-related stress, while Statistics Canada reports that 62 percent of Canadian workers say work is their main source of stress. After a lifetime of confronting work-related stress, individuals who want to work in retirement should look for pressure-free opportunities. This is an important quality, as the ASI indicates that stress has been linked to increased rates of heart attack, hypertension and other disorders.

DID YOU KNOW?

Howhouseholdsearntheirincome haschangeddramaticallyoverthe last several decades. According to a Pew Research Centeral analysis of the Decennial Census andAmericanCommunitySurveys integrated Public Use Microdata Sample files, in 1960 only fathers worked in 70 percent of American households. That figure has dropped in each ensuing decade and by 2012 fathers were the sole earners in just 31 percent of American households. While one in four households in American were dual income households in 1960, by 2012 that figure had risen to 60 percent. While those figures represent dramatic changes, the number of households in which mothers are the sole earners has not changed all that much since 1960. In 1960, mothers were the sole earners in just 2 percent of American households. Fifty-two years later 6 percent of American households featured mothers as the sole earners.

WORKING PARENTS CAN CREATE BETTER WORK-LIFE BALANCE

Many working parents struggle to maintain a healthy balance between their responsibilities at work and their obligations to their families. An inability to maintain that healthy balance can have adverse effects on men and women’s careers as well as the relationships they have with their families.

A 2015 survey of more than 2,000 adults commissioned by the workplace solution provider Workfront found that 38 percent of survey participants have missed life events because of a bad work-life balance. Access to technology that means work is never too far away might contribute to poor work-life balance, as 57 percent of respondents also acknowledged feeling that technology has ruined the definition of a family dinner. Finding a healthy balance between work and life at home may require a concerted effort on the part of working parents, but there are ways to successfully juggle a career and family.
