Oatka-Genesee Valley Penny Saver- 9-22-23

“I’m dreading fall. It is a terrifying season,” he says... “Everything shriveling up and dying.” I don’t know how to answer. Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale. I’ve never thought to be frightened of it.

MOMENTS IN TIME

* On Sept. 23, 1908, a game between the New York Giants and Chicago Cubs ends in 1-1 tie after a controversial call at second base.The officials ruled that Giants first baseman Fred Merkle was out because he failed to touch second base, a call that has been disputed ever since.

DID YOU KNOW?

Down syndrome is the most common chromosomal condition. People with Down syndrome may have mental impairment and a higher risk for various illnesses. While the public may be familiar with the hallmarks of Down syndrome,many people may not be aware that there are actually three different types of Down syndrome.

· Trisomy-21 (nondisjunction): This is the most common type of Down syndrome and is the result of an error in cell division called “nondisjunction.” The National Down Syndrome Society says nondisjunction results in an embryo with three copies of chromosome 21 instead of two.As the embryo develops,the extra chromosome is replicated in every cell of the body. This type of Down syndrome accounts for 95 percent of all cases.

· Mosaicism: This is diagnosed when there is a mixture of two types of cells, indicates the NDSS. Some contain the usual 46 chromosomes, while the others contain 47. The cells with 47 chromosomes contain an extra chromosome 21. Research indicates people with mosaicism have fewer characteristics of Down syndrome than those with other types, but this form is the least common, accounting for roughly 1 percent of all cases.

· Translocation: Accounting for 4 percent of cases of Down syndrome, translocation is marked by 46 chromosomes in all cells. However, an additional full or partial copy of chromosome 21 attaches to another chromosome, usually chromosome 14. The presence of the extra full or partial chromosome 21 causes the characteristics of Down syndrome, says the NDSS.

No matter which form is diagnosed, people with Down syndrome have an extra portion of chromosome 21 present in some shape or form. This extra genetic material alters normal development in the body.

Cemetery Thank You

Now that I'm back on my feet again after two falls, I'd like to send out a huge thank you to two people who helped me on Father's Day at Oakwood Cemetery. While trying to plant a flower, I lost my footing, fell, and was unable to get up. When I called for help, a lovely lady heard me and signaled a man in a white car who told me his name was Andrew. Andrew was driving his baby around to get him to sleep. Andrew got me upright, walked me to my car, put my walker in the trunk, and then proceeded to finish planting the flower. How great was that?! And how lucky that baby will grow up with Andrew as his father. And how lucky I was to have that lovely lady look for help for me.

Awesome staff

I am a Senior Citizen who gets treated badly by some younger people, however when I attend senior activities at the Henrietta Senior Center, Shelly and her staff treat all of us well. The same happens at the Wheatland Senior Center where Shanna and her staff go out of their way to make seniors feel happy and comfortable. Thank you all, but especially Shanna and Shelly.

Get me to the church on time….NOT!

I detest weddings, and here is why: They have become showy extravaganzas.The music is so loud that one must shout to talk with others. The expenses for the gown, the reception, the band, and the food, not to mention any other perks deemed “necessary” are excessive. And why get married in a church when a garden or a barn or a beach will do? What happened to modest weddings where couples exchange their vows before God and truly mean it? What happened to guests wearing respectful and modest clothing? What happened to families rejoicing in the union of two families and where children are welcome? Weddings were meant to be holy and beautiful celebrations of the sacrament of marriage.

Motorcycles

This is not for responsible motorcyclists. This is for irresponsible motorcyclists. To put it bluntly, stop riding like self-centered idiots! Speeding, ignoring stop signs, passing on double yellow lines, etc. In addition to making automobiles aware of motorcycles, how about a campaign directed at irresponsible riders. Motorcycles vs. automobiles in a crash: the bike looses.

Q&A Master Gardeners with the

If you ask 10 gardeners how they winterize their gardens you get 10 answers... all good ones.

I like to cut my peonies and hostas down to 3-4” so that the “ratty” looking leaves don’t irritate me all winter when I look out my windows! That saves me time in the Spring.

I also save some mulch (or buy/get more) to pile on to those beds that I want to keep from getting “weedy” now & in the early spring.

Besides harvesting all my veggies & cleaning out extraneous vegetation

from those beds, this year (instead of mulching) I am going to plant a “cover” crop of mustard seed to rejuvenate those beds.

Finally, I have dahlias that I dig up when they’re done blooming (& store inside for the winter) and daffodil bulbs to plant before the snow flies.

Harvest all crops. Pull up all plants. Sort diseased and seed bearing and discard. Weeds should be removed to get rid or seeds and insects. Remainder of plants can be mixed with leaves and composted. Test soil pH in Fall in order to

prep soil for Spring. Clean and disinfect outdoor equipment. Put it away in a dry place.Make any notes on current garden noting soil amendments, rotations, pests, or other concerns for next year. For my vegetable gardens, I totally clean them out except for late season/ winter vegetables- kale, winter density spinach & greens, carrots and garlic. Pulling all plants and vines and discarding them in a place away and downwind of the garden for biosecurity. The garden is then rototilled. I prefer to seed the freshly tilled garden with oats as they help clean the soil.

In one known to be very wet garden, that is not an option as it would mean not being able to get on it to spring tiller in a timely manner ( June or July??) So that wet garden is often free seeded w/ perennials/herb mixture such as dill, red clover, old sunflower seed. It is surprising what comes up next year and is also fun to watch the turkeys in that wet garden.

CHOOSING AND APPLYING MULCH

Application: Correct application of the mulch is essential. Applying too much mulch can adversely affect lawns, plants and soil. In addition, excessive application can cause decay and make lawns and plants more vulnerable to disease. Homeowners uncertain about when and how to apply mulch in the fall can consult with a lawn care professional to devise a plan that ensures their lawns and gardens hold up against winter weather.

Hydrate Evergreens

Deep soaks in the fall are important if autumn has been dry. Conifers, such as yews, and broadleaf evergreens, such as hollies and boxwoods, are susceptible to winter burn because they release moisture through their leaves year-round. Pay particular attention to broadleaf types that have a south/ southwest exposure to the afternoon sun, and give them extra water as needed.

Protect Bark on Young Trees

Newly planted trees, especially fruit trees, have thin bark that can suffer sun scald or crack from fluctuating day/night temperatures. Tree wrap tape and plastic spiral tree protectors can help prevent this problem.

Consider the many special delights a lawn affords: soft mattress for a creeping baby; worm hatchery for a robin; croquet or badminton court; baseball diamond; restful green perspectives leading the eye to a background of flower beds, shrubs, or hedge; green shadows - “This lawn, a carpet all alive/With shadows flung from leaves’ - as changing and as spellbinding as the waves of the sea, whether flecked with sunlight under trees of light foliage, like elm and locust, or deep, dark, solid shade, moving slowly as the tide, under maple and oak. This carpet! - Katharine S. White, Onward and Upward in the Garden, 1979

MASONRY & BASEMENT

GET CREATIVE WITH APPLES THIS FALL

Serves 6 to 8

2 to 3 tablespoons

unsalted butter

2 pounds apples, eeled, cored and cut into thick slices

1/2 cup honey, preferably sage honey

1/2 cup white wine

Zest of 1 lemon

Juice of 1 lemon

Fresh sage sprigs for garnish

1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the apples, turn the heat to high and sauté until they begin to brown on the edges, about 5 minutes. If some are getting too well done, remove them and place on a plate while the rest continue to cook, then return them to the skillet when all are done.

2. Reduce the heat to low and add the honey, wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1/2 cup water. Cover and allow to cook until the apples are tender but still firm; you don’t want them to turn into applesauce.

3.Serve this in a bowl,tuck in a couple sprigs of fresh sage from your garden,and tell your guests all about sage honey.

Trees may require pruning for a variety reasons. Storms may have damaged branches, necessitating a pruning. In other instances, trees may have outgrown their yards, overpowering the landscape.

Autumn and winter, when trees largely go dormant and fallen leaves make it easier to see the branches beneath, may be prime times to prune. Pruning during the dormant period also minimizes sap loss and stress to the tree, and can help cut down on the growth of fungi. In addition, insects are less likely to be problematic during the colder months of the year.

Ahiddenfireburnsperpetuallyupon the hearth of the world.... In autumn this great conflagration becomes especially manifest. Then the flame that is slowly and mysteriously consuming every green thing bursts into vivid radiance. Every blade of grass and every leaf in the woodlands is cast into the great oven of Nature; and the bright colours of their fading are literally the flames of their consuming. The golden harvest-fields are glowing in the heart of the furnace.... By this autumn fire God every year purges the floor of nature. All effete substances that have served their purposeintheoldformareburntup. Everywhere God makes sweet and clean the earth with fire.

Here’s a tip

* You can plant deciduous trees (trees that lose their leaves in the fall) strategically in order to reduce your heating and cooling costs. eir leaves grow in the spring, blocking summer’s heating rays, but when winter comes, they fall off to let the sun in, warming things up a bit.

* Keep nail-polish bottles easy to open by rubbing a little bit of petroleum jelly inside the cap of the bottle.

* M.C. in Arizona would like to know some alternative uses for hair conditioner. Here goes: use as a shaving lotion for legs or face; a makeup remover; ouch-free bandage removal; so en makeup brushes or paintbrushes before storage; get knots out of doll hair or costume wigs; wash delicates (think silks and pantyhose); rub on a shower rod to help curtain glide effortlessly; and lastly, soak a shrunken sweater in a conditioner/water solution to so en the fibers, then gently try stretching the sweater back to size.

* “Clean an egg carton very well. Flip it over and make slits in each egg cup. is works wonders as a child’s card holder for card games.” -- L.P. in Maryland

Cultivating Community: Summer Work and Education Program for City Teens

BY SUSAN COYLE, MONROE COUNTY 4 H YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM LEADER

During the summer of 2023, Monroe County 4-H Youth Development, in partnership with the City of Rochester Mayor’s Office and Department of Recreation and Human Services, continued Cultivating Community, a paid summer work, education, and community service experience for teens who live in the city of Rochester that was piloted in summer 2022.

In June, a cohort of fi een Community Cultivators were accepted into the program. From July 10 through August 17, these teens spent mornings engaging in horticulture work across all city quadrants including Maplewood Rose Garden, M.K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence Garden, the Roc City Skate Park, Enrico Fermi School Number 17’s Edible Food Forest, Washington Grove in Cobbs Hill Park, Miss Merrimac Community Garden, Bay Street Community Garden, and Ryan R-Center gardens.

During the a ernoons, the teens learned about managing their money, writing resumes and interviewing, and about healthy cooking through classes led by guest educators from Cornell Cooperative Extension’s SNAP-ED Nutrition program. ey made pizza, sushi, and sandwiches to learn about healthy cooking options and to improve cooking skills. ey also learned about environmental justice and composting from CCE-Monroe educators and provided helpful feedback for current PhD research on creating urban green spacestoserveyouthneeds. eycreatedtheirowncompostand

waterways from being used for swimming or boating. e visit included kayaking and canoeing in the bay. Teen Cultivators were also exposed to new spaces in the Rochester region: Letchworth State Park Nature Center and the Seneca Art and Culture Center, where they learned about Native American culture and gardening traditions.

e Cultivating Community program provided a paid work experience for participating teens. roughout the summer, they contributed substantially to community gardens across the city, gaining valuable life skills and new knowledge of different Rochester neighborhoods. e youth also bonded beautifully, cultivating friendships as well as gardens.

Prepare Your Garden for Winter’s Onslaught

Remove spent plants

Decomposing organic material is the basis for compost and other fertilizers. However, vegetable plants that are le to sit can lead to decay in the garden. Decaying plants can serve as hosts for pest populations and diseases. Rotting vegetables also can drop unwanted seeds into the soil, which eventually can strip nutrients that normally would go to next year’s crops.

Ornamental plants and perennials can be cut back in fall. Cut down stalks and remove leaves.

Plant a cover crop

A cover crop protects the soil and can return nutrients to it. When the soil is bare during winter, weed seeds can easily blow in and lie in wait, ultimately becoming a problem during the ensuing year. Cover crops can include clover or field peas, which will increase the levels of available nitrogen.

Amend the soil

Fall is a perfect time to add soil amendments, such as manure and compost. ese fertilizers will add nutrients and break down gradually, enriching the soil over the winter.

Divide bulbs

Divide plant bulbs and plant them where you want flowers like daffodils and tulips to grow in the spring.

Prune dormant plants

Wait until plants are dormant to prune them and adjust their shape. Most shrubs and trees should be pruned in late winter, right before new growth.

Move potted plants

Bring delicate plants into a sheltered area, such as a greenhouse or indoor garage, so they can continue to thrive during the winter.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Finding the Cause Behind Emphysema and Ways to Minimize It

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am male, age 65. I exercise regularly. A shortness of breath led me to get a chest X-ray, which showed that I have emphysema. I smoked for 10 years, but quit 33 years ago. As an avid runner, this revelation was perplexing and depressing. Is it possible that other factors contributed to me getting emphysema, and how do I minimize this disease, if possible? -- T.W.

ANSWER: Emphysema is most often caused by smoking in North America or by cooking fires in many parts of the world. The exact type of emphysema you have can help tell what caused it, but that usually requires a biopsy, which is generally unnecessary for a diagnosis or treatment. Although X-rays and CT scans can help with the diagnosis, the definitive study is the pulmonary function test. For this test, you must breathe in and out for more times and in more ways than you ever thought was possible with a respiratory technician and a lot of machines. (When I was a fourth-year medical student, I had my own PFTs done as a learning experience -- thank you, Dr. Julian Solway -- and have respect for how hard they are to perform correctly.)

Besides smoke exposure, another cause is the genetic Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, which can affect the liver as well. This diagnosis is made by blood testing and confirmed by DNA testing through a genetic counselor. I always consider this diagnosis in a person with emphysema who is a nonsmoker or has minimal smoking history. If you do have AAT deficiency, there may be other treatments available, but specific treatment requires special expertise.

Regardless of the cause behind your emphysema, you have already made the most important change by quitting smoking. Avoiding secondhand smoke and other lung irritants is important, too.

There are no treatments to reverse emphysema, but many can improve symptoms. These include medication (such as inhalers), pulmonary rehabilitation and oxygen in people with emphysema that is severe enough to cause low blood oxygen levels. Most people who quit smoking have a very slow progression of the disease. However, it’s important to quit smoking as soon as possible so that there is enough reserve lung function.

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.

DOES AIR Discover the Human Touch in Hearing Technology

Air polishing helps prevent oral disease and improves the look of your smile at the same time. Air polishing uses a mix of compressed air, water, and either glycine or sodium bicarbonate powder to remove stains and plaque from teeth. It also gently cleans below the gumline more comfortably than ultrasonic scaling. Because it uses compressed air, it can reach areas between teeth and orthodontics where plaque and stains can be the most difficult to remove. Air polishing is powerful enough to blast away plaque biofilm, which is the sticky bacterial film that builds up on our teeth daily and leads to tartar if not properly removed. Air polishing can be used alongside or in place of a traditional cleaning.

Air polishing is one more tool dentists can use to promote optimum oral hygiene for their patients. Another avenue for you to pursue to achieve peak oral health are regular visits to your dentist and hygienist. Enjoy the feeling of a fresh, clean, healthy mouth – call 585.343.4246 for an appointment at BATAVIA FAMILY DENTAL We’ll help you keep your teeth and gums in the best shape possible. We’re easy to find at 6 Batavia CityCentre, where office hours are by appointment. We accept most insurances.

4 EASY WAYS TO CREATE MORE TIME IN YOUR DAY

Managing one’s time can sometimes feel like an uphill battle. As a result, adults with hectic schedules and multiple responsibilities may pine for an extra hour or two in the day. While it’s impossible to extend a day from 24 to 26 hours, there are ways for busy men and women to create more time in their day.

1. Embrace organization tools. Whether it’s day planners, smartphone reminders or more traditional print calendars with meetings and deadlines written on them, organization tools can greatly cut back on time spent trying to remember and/or confirm meeting times, project schedules, deadlines, and other obligations.

Social Worker Requirements:

• BSW Certification or Master’s Degree in Social Work

• Previous Short Term/Sub Acute Experience

Social Worker Duties include:

• Completing MDSs

• Maintaining an open line of communication with residents and families

• Attending care plan meetings

• Discharge Planning

Benefits:

We offer a highly competitive salary, generous comprehensive benefits package, and Health and Dental insurance. Join us and make a difference every day.

Job Type: Full-time

Experience: Nursing Home: 1 year (Required)

Education: Bachelor’s (Required)

Pay Range: $55k-$63K per year

2. Assess your productivity. Some people are most productive in the mornings, while others do not hit their strides until after lunch. Identify the time or times of day when you tend to be most productive, and make an effort to focus exclusively on work during these times. Resist any urge to schedule meetings or conference calls during those times of day when you are most productive, as it can be hard to multitask or focus when discussing projects with coworkers or clients.

3. Minimize distractions. Social media, the internet and texting can distract attention away from tasks that must be completed, ultimately affecting howquicklyandefficientlysuch projects are finished. Make a concerted effort to avoid social media and the internet while at work, and turn off smartphone alerts that entice you to go online. In addition, turn off text alerts if they are proving too great a distraction.

4. Reconsider your commute. Professionals who drive to work but find themselves sitting in traffic on their way to and from work can investigate possible alternatives to driving themselves. Public transportation might not get you to work more quickly than driving yourself, but time spent on a bus or train can be used to workonprojectsandcheckand answer work-related emails, clearinguptimelaterintheday. Time spent behind the wheel of an automobile cannot be safely spent working.

“When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.” –Alexander Graham Bell

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel

* On Sept. 22, 1598, 26-year-old playwright Ben Jonson is indicted for manslaughter after a duel.He was very nearly hanged,but his ability to read and write saved him.He claimed “benefit of clergy,” which allowed him to be sentenced by the lenient ecclesiastical courts.In his time,Jonson was as famous as Shakespeare.

THE RIGHT WAYS TO UPDATE A RÉSUMÉ

Thejobmarketcanbecompetitive, as new graduates flood the field each and every year. But graduation season is not the only time of year when the competition to find work gets heated. The start of the new year tends to be one of the busiest times of year for new hires. According to the employment resource Simply Hired, the first Monday after New Year’s Day tends to be the busiest day for job search activity. Companies are returning to full production after the holidays, and as a result there is a flurry of new activity.Thismeansapplicantscan use the last quarter of the year to prepare for job searches they will institute once the calendar turns. Many job seekers may benefit from revamping their résumés before beginning their search. It’s not uncommon for recruiters to receive thousands of résumés for each job opening they post, and the sheer volume of applicants canmakeitdifficultforjobseekers to get their résumés seen. In such instances, job seekers must take steps to tip the odds in their favor.

HOW TO ACE JOB INTERVIEWS WHEN SWITCHING CAREERS

Use your contacts to your advantage. Even if much of your experience won’t transfer to your new career, your professional network might still be valuable to a prospective employer. The longer you have been working the larger your professional network likely is, so highlight those contacts in your interview and illustrate how you can put them to good use should you be hired.

EMPLOYMENT: THE NEXT STEP AFTER GRADUATION

Do your homework before an interview or networking opportunity. Always be prepared before an interview or when meeting with someone you are soliciting for job help. Research the company and know its background so you have an idea of how the company runs. Keep a list of questions at the ready. A knowledge of the company can help you stand out from other applicants.

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Recently, a new member joined our family: a toy poodle mix named Petey who was rehomed by an acquaintance who said they just couldn’t handle him and that he was untrainable. Petey is 4 years old, bounces everywhere, and loves to play soccer by catching a ball and then bouncing it off of his front paws back toward me. He’s incredibly smart, but training him has indeed been a challenge. I know the previous owners never made an effort to train him in basic obedience, and they le him alone for days at a time. His house-training is spotty. How can I make the training process faster and easier for both of us? - Doug L., Burlington, Vermont

DEAR DOUG: You’ve taken on a real challenge: a smart, independent and energetic dog. Petey sounds like a wonderful little guy, though, and I’m so glad you’ve added him to your family and committed to his well-being.

Building trust with Petey is important so that he knows what to expect from you and the rest of the family. Do that by adhering to a schedule: walks, feeding and training at the same time each day, with as little deviation as possible.

Obedience-training a smart and independent dog requires you to be smart about training, too. Petey needs to know the house rules, and he must want to do the things you’re asking him to do (or not do). Look into positive reinforcement methods like clicker training (https://www. akc.org/expert-advice/training/clicker-training-your-dog-mark-andreward/). Commit to a consistent training regimen so that desirable behaviors are reinforced and negative ones are discouraged. Work with a trainer if you are still struggling with Petey a er a few weeks.
