55 Ayrault Rd., Fairport 585-218-9570 MOST POPULAR ETHNIC CUISINES ACROSS THE COUNTRY What constitutes “ethnic” food differs from person to person. Someone of Italian descent may dine regularly on garlic-infused pasta dishes, while a person from another area of the world may find such foods exotic. In the cultural melting pot of North America, various cuisines representing countries that span the globe are within arm’s length for many people. According to Technomic, a Chicago-based research firm, 77 percent of Americans enjoy ethnic foods while dining out once a month. Around 38 percent order ethnic food weekly. In addition, many more people prepare ethnic cuisine at home. A growing interest in ethnic foods is fueled by young people. Technomic notes that millennials are more apt to want to try various cuisines and then incorporate them into their regular dining experiences. The National Restaurant Association found that 60 percent of people are likely to “tie their favorite ethnic food to their family history.” Interest in ethnic foods tends to be highest in urban areas where restaurants and ingredients may be more readily available.

3.
The statistics portal Statista indicates that, as of January 2015, Chinese, American and Italian foods are quite popular in Canada. However, the percentage of people who cook these foods as opposed to eating them out at a restaurant varies. Chinese food is most widely enjoyed in a restaurant setting, while Italian food is frequently whipped up at home.
1. Three Eagle Scouts were honored at Big Springs Museum on January 11th. Assemblywoman Marjorie Byrnes and Monroe County Legislator Steve Brew both attended! (l-r): Assemblywoman Byrnes, Ryan Pelkey, Brice Hatch, Evan Maniscalco. 2. Beautiful sunset, looks like the sky is on fire! 3. Hugs & Blessings 4. Sledding fun before the snow melts again!
As immigration tides change, ethnic cuisine may change with them. However, interest in experiencing ethnic dining is likely to remain consistent.

When it comes to the top ethnic cuisines enjoyed throughout the states or provinces and territories, Chinese, Mexican and Italian rally for the top spots on diners’ plates. While the NRA has Italian cuisine as earning topbilling, Technomic’s list says that Chinese food, at 76 percent, followed by Mexican food (74 percent) and Italian (71 percent) comprise the biggest ethnic draws. Japanese or sushi comes in a distant fourth at 32 percent in the United States.

HEMP HAS SIGNIFICANT HEALTH BENEFITS FOR PETS (NAPSI)—NaturVet’s veterinarian-formulated pet supplements have progressed over the last 25 years to keep up with the ever-changing needs of pet parents. NaturVet’s newest Hemp for Health product line includes four top products—Allergy, Calming, Immune and Joint— that are now available enhanced with Hemp Seed Oil and Hemp Seed Powder, sharing the same great original base formulas that pet parents have relied on for years. Although marijuana and hemp come from the same cannabis family, the plants are completely different in function, cultivation and application. Hemp is grown specifically for agricultural purposes and has been used for hundreds of years in textiles, body care products, paper products, industrial products and building materials. Most importantly, hemp is nonpsychoactive and cannot get your pet high. Hemp has significant health benefits for pets. Hemp is high in fiber; a great source of plant-based protein; is rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids; and contains phytonutrients, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and 20 amino acids. Hemp Seed Oil and Hemp Seed Powder work synergistically with other active ingredients to help provide support for allergies, stress and anxiety, joints, aches and discomfort, the immune system, and overall health and wellness. For more information on NaturVet products, please visit www.NaturVet.com or call (888) 628-8783.
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I read that stray dogs from foreign countries are being put up for adoption here and bringing new diseases with them. My family wants to adopt a dog, but now we’re uncertain about doing so. How can we make sure we’re getting a healthy dog? — Julie in Alexandria, Louisiana DEAR JULIE: You should certainly do some research before taking that super-cute puppy home from a shelter. Rescue shelters have gone through some dramatic changes in the past decade, and perhaps the most notable change is that dogs eligible for adoption are often shipped from a shelter in one region of the country to another region. Dogs from overseas also are being acquired by some shelters as demand for rescue dogs — particularly the “adorable” one or popular breeds — outstrips supply. There is little federal regulation — the USDA doesn’t track how many dogs are imported from other countries, for example — and states are only just beginning to tighten rules to ensure the health of dogs shipped across state lines. There are reports of newly adopted dogs developing severe illnesses, including a new strain of canine distemper virus — a highly contagious disease that closely resembles rabies. Here are some important questions you should ask: • Where did the dog come from? Was it surrendered locally, sent from another state or unknown? • Ask for copies of health records. Has the dog been given vaccinations yet? • If the dog comes from another state or country, was it quarantined after arriving (at least 48 hours in some states)? Take the dog you adopt to a veterinarian as soon as possible for a health check and to get any needed vaccines.

Hydrate Inside and Out. Use a humidifier to keep skin hydrated during the dry months and be sure to lather on moisturizer. Natural moisturizers like coconut oil and shea butter can act as protective barriers against harsh elements, sealing in moisture. In addition to hydrating on the outside, it is just as important to stay hydrated on the inside. By drinking water throughout the day, your skin can stay healthy and moisturized. Avoid Toxins, Specifically Allergens and Irritants. Choose moisturizers and skin care products that don’t contain common irritants, and opt for mild cleansers and moisturizers that are specifically labeled for sensitive skin. Castor oil is another moisturizer alternative that is natural and can be used on both the face and body. Layer Up. Lock in moisture and protect your skin from wind, rain and snow by wearing layers whenever you venture outside. The skin on your neck, face and hands is thinner than other areas of the body and therefore more sensitive to the effects of winter weather. Thermals, scarves and gloves can keep you warm and protect your skin from the cold, dry air.

Au. D, FAAA
DEAR DR. ROACH: My wife is 69 and in very good health, exercising at least two hours a day. She has suffered from “knots in the back” for over 10 years. It is extremely painful, often bringing her to tears. It comes on suddenly at any time of the day or night, and lasts hours, days and occasionally weeks. She has been to several physicians, whose recommendations are to “live with it.” She has tried chiropractic, massage therapy, prescription and OTC painkillers, stretching and home massage, all to no avail. I cannot see the knots, but I can feel a tightness when I attempt to rub them out, which usually does nothing. A glass of wine is the only reliable relief, and it lasts only a few hours. Is there any recourse to this condition? -- J.P. ANSWER: I am sure you and your wife must be frustrated. The fact that it comes on suddenly, can be felt as tightness and gets a bit better with alcohol makes me strongly suspect she is having muscle spasms. These most often come on in the legs and feet, but they can affect the back too. Two hours a day of exercising sounds like a lot, and she may be overexercising some muscles, while possibly not exercising others. This can lead to imbalances in muscle strength. Another common problem stemming from exercising is inadequate stretching. Stretching is the first place to start for many people with muscle cramps. A physical therapist or physiatrist may be of immense benefit, and your wife should explain in detail what her exercise regimen is. We are taught to think carefully of the mechanism of injury, and I am concerned the exercise may be that injury. Abnormalities in electrolytes (blood salts, especially potassium, sodium, magnesium and phosphate) are only rarely the cause, although many people write me that they have been helped by taking one or more of these. Primary muscle diseases, side effects from medications and inadequate hydration are possible, but also unlikely. In absence of detailed knowledge about her exercise regimen, I’d recommend she try backing off a bit, maybe using ice after exercise, stretching the back under supervision and trying a hot bath or shower before bed. ***
DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 78-year-old who runs 15-20 miles per week, with prostate gland enlargement and reduced urinary frequency with occasional use of Advil. As a runner, I have been reluctant to make ibuprofen a daily regimen because I have read that inflammation is part of the body’s response to tissue damage, which is crucial to the healing process and is important for muscle growth. When ibuprofen’s anti-inflammatory effect reduces symptoms, does it affect the healing process also? Can you comment on the pros and cons for runners? -- B.M. ANSWER: High-dose ibuprofen was shown to inhibit muscle protein synthesis following weightlifting exercise. This led to a suspicion that it might impair the gains in muscle strength that are made with exercise. However, a Canadian study showed that moderate doses of ibuprofen (400 mg after exercise) did not impair muscle growth or gains in strength. Using ibuprofen for occasional muscle soreness or for the purpose of reducing prostate inflammation should not adversely affect your performance in running. *** Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible.

A Look Back… MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel On Jan. 19, 1915, during World War I, Britain suffers its first casualties from an air attack when two German zeppelins drop bombs on the eastern coast of England. On Jan. 15, 1951, Ilse Koch, wife of the commandant of the Buchenwald concentration camp, is sentenced to life imprisonment in a court in West Germany. Nicknamed the “Witch of Buchenwald,” Ilse collected lampshades, book covers and gloves made from the skin of tattooed camp prisoners. On Jan. 14, 1969, an explosion aboard the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise kills 27 people in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. A rocket accidentally detonated, destroying 15 planes and injuring more than 300 people. The Enterprise was the first-ever nuclear-powered aircraft carrier when it was launched in 1960.
(NAPS)—There is a public health threat looming across the United States that’s not visible to most but affects nearly half of all Americans daily: loneliness. Social isolation is as bad for your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day and is twice as harmful as obesity. Worst of all, loneliness is a contributing factor in senior suicides, which are rising in the U.S. While it is not something people like to think about, now more than ever, Americans must remove the stigma around mental health and spread awareness to better combat loneliness. Many of the 12 million Americans over age 65 who live alone are entering the time of year where that lack of companionship and isolation is most palpable: winter. Whether physical or travel challenges keep seniors from attending family gatherings or the harsh weather deters them from venturing out for a social event, seniors can suffer from prolonged loneliness that can quickly manifest into more serious issues. Loneliness does not have to be synonymous with getting older or with aging in place. Here are tips on how to help keep loneliness— and its negative health effects—at bay: • Intervene early: Spotting loneliness in yourself or someone you love can be difficult. The most common physical and behavioral signs of loneliness include persistent sadness, impaired cognitive performance, lower self-esteem, or lack of motivation and energy. Early intervention can positively affect one’s quality of life, so it’s important to address these symptoms as soon as possible before they become overwhelming. • Leverage technology: Technology can play a key role in reducing loneliness, ensuring seniors are always connected to loved ones and care teams who can monitor and interact with them. For example, Philips Cares is a mobile application that helps connect seniors who are subscribers to Philips Lifeline service with their family and friends, helping to enable these caregivers to be there for their aging loved ones, easing and enriching their aging journey. • Make a connection: Connecting with people, purpose and passions will help eliminate feelings of isolation. Consider organizing a reoccurring social gathering, such as a book club or a group fitness class. Explore local activities organized by a senior community center or find a National Council of Aging program through www.ncoa.org/ncoa-map.

Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia, w hich is a problem w ith the rate or rhythm of the heartbeat during w hich the heart can beat too fast, too slow or w ith an irregular rhythm. Atrial fibrillation, or AF, occurs w hen rapid, disorganized electrical signals cause the atria, w hich consists of the heart’s tw o upper chambers, to contract very fast and irregularly. According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, w hen a person is suffering from AF, blood begins to pool in his or her atria. W hile that blood pools in the atria, it is not being pumped completely into the heart’s tw o low er chambers, and this prevents the low er and upper chambers from w orking together effectively. Though AF does not alw ays produce noticeable symptoms, some people w ith AF experience chest pain or heart failure, especially w hen the heart rhythm is rapid. AF can increase a person’s risk of stroke, and it may surface periodically or become an ongoing problem that lasts for years.
COMBATING CANCER IN YOUNG WOMEN ONLINE (NAPSI)—Women from the ages of 18 to 50 are the most active group of adult Internet and social media users. And even though women in this age group are less likely to get breast cancer than older women, it does happen. Now, three southern states are making sure these women have reliable online resources. Tailored to the Territory The program could be lifesaving throughout the country. African-American women are more likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer younger, and more likely to get a type of breast cancer that grows quickly and is hard to treat. Louisiana—especially the southern part of the state—has a large African-American population. Dr. Donna Williams, director of the Louisiana Cancer Prevention and Control Programs (LCP), says she was surprised to see the number of women under 50 in the area with breast cancer.
Marge, like some people her age, can’t drive anymore. She gave up her keys. But she could use a lift... a visit to a doctor, a trip to the grocery store, a stop at the bank.

Magic Maze SONGWRITERS HALL OF FAME
Many of these cancers were found through a program started by LCP and local partners. The program sponsors two mobile vans carrying equipment to give mammograms, the recommended screening test for breast cancer. Still, diagnosis is just the beginning of the breast cancer journey. Raising Awareness LCP searched for breast cancer resources for young women on the Gulf Coast, but found only a handful. Practically none of them talked about fertility, early menopause or discussing cancer with kids—problems most older women with breast cancer don’t face. So, with a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), LCP started a series of workshops just for younger women with breast cancer. It held meetings all over southern Louisiana and set up a Facebook account. LCP called the project “SurviveDAT” after the rallying cry of New Orleans Saints football fans: “WHO DAT!” Going Regional, Going Viral When LCP applied for another CDC grant for the successful program, it had a big choice: keep SurviveDAT live or go totally online. While the inperson workshops drew only about 20 people at a time, the Facebook page had gained more than 2,000 followers statewide. The decision was easy from there: It was time to go virtual. All of Louisiana could be reached with the planned website. But why stop there? LCP also got in touch with cancer control programs in other states. Right away, Mississippi and Alabama signed on, creating SurviveMISS and SurviveAL. The goal of the “Gulf States Network” was to reach 7,000 users online in the first year. It took only 90 days to exceed that. Information Machine A single small team manages the websites. Each site has the same look and basic structure and facts. Individual states can add regional information such as meeting dates and support group contacts separately. All the websites share resources such as expert advice, survivor videos and frequently asked questions. Many conferences and other live events are also recorded or streamed live online. Looking to the Future Dr. Williams and her partners want the project to keep growing. Already, cancer control programs in Arkansas and Florida have expressed interest. And there are more issues to discuss. Women often have concerns about fertility, a good reason to talk to a doctor before beginning cancer treatment. Many are interested in genetic counseling, or speaking with a professional before genetic testing about possible test results and what they could mean.

To Our Very Own Secret Santa! Words cannot express the difference your acts of kindness made over the days leading up to Christmas. We have been completely overwhelmed by your generosity and the way in which each surprise There is a dangerous driving trend that seems to be increasing here in Western New York. When there is an obstruction on one side of a roadway caused by a garbage truck or a UPS delivery truck for instance, drivers feel free to cross the center line into oncoming traffic just so that they won’t have to wait. This action forces oncoming drivers to head for the shoulder of the road to avoid a collision. It is not your right to put other drivers in danger of a head on collision just because you are too inconsiderate to wait until your lane of travel is open. Don’t do this to other innocent drivers on the road.

gift for Twelve Days of Christmas seemed to be so personally chosen to make our days easier and filled with Christmas cheer.

However, we are confident that through faith, love and selflessness of family and friends that are known and unknown to us, we will survive this “bump” in the road of life. Heartfelt thanks to everyone for your prayers

I wish people would try harder to keep their dogs in their own yard! I have small dogs, and I don’t appreciate your large dogs running around my yard! We are in the village and they should be contained. Mine are; why aren’t yours? Not only is it safer for your dogs, it will be safer for my small breed dogs and myself! Your dogs have already bit another dog passing by your yard, and I don’t want them to get the chance to bite mine!

People spend hours raking their lawns and yards. They buy brown bags to put the leaves in. I live in the village. How many months do we have to look at the messes? Forget calling the village

My life’s motto: Be kind when possible; it is always possible.
5 Stars to the Chili Highway Dept., especially the Leaf Crew. We have a lot of leaves on our street, and they are put to the curb for pick up. With the early snowfall and cold weather, I thought we’d have to wait until Spring. Saturday morning, December 28th, there was the crew to do
On 11/05, as six cars waited in the parking lot at [local] labs because it was raining, a younger woman drove up, jumped out of her car and stood as close to the door of the lab as she could. When others got out and explain to her we were in line in the cars because it was raining, and one elderly woman said she had two spine surgeries and couldn’t stand that long to wait, she screamed, “So what? I’m here first!” Then she got out her phone and started texting someone with a big smile on her face like she was proud of what she did.

an outstanding job. One machine swept the street clean! A very pleased homeowner, Priscilla Beeman On New Year’s Day at 2pm, we celebrated our 66th Wedding Anniversary by having a lovely dinner at Brian’s USA Diner in Mt. Morris. A customer surprised us and bought this Vet & wife our dinner. Thank you! More than once! We will pay it forward!
Well, I guess it’s that time of year when roads and driveways fill with snow and need to be plowed. While driving down the road, after it’s plowed, it’s clear to see where the selfish and self-important people live, as they plow their driveways out onto the road for everyone else to have to drive through. On my road, there is a man at the bottom of a hill with 2 driveways. After he plows his snow onto the road, the driver won’t see it ‘til he’s in it and could slide, losing control. I have a message for these snow hogs: the world doesn’t revolve around you; show your fellow man some consideration.

HOW COUPLES CAN BENEFIT FROM HIRING LOCAL WEDDING VENDORS: Local vendors can meet with brides and grooms more readily throughout the planning process, making things less stressful on the happy couple. This also makes it easier to drop off deposits, attend meetings, make fitting appointments, or attend styling sessions.
HOROSCOPE SHARED HABITS OF ORGANIZED PEOPLE The beginning of the year is an ideal time to get organized and set oneself up for productive months ahead. It’s also a good opportunity to take inventory of seldom-used items and clear out as much clutter as possible. The amount of stuff the average person owns can affect how easy or difficult it is for that person to get organized. In 2014, professional organizer Regina Lark estimated the average American home contains 300,000 items. And it’s not just adults who love to collect and keep things, as kids contribute to the problem, too. British research, as published in The Telegraph, indicates the average 10-year-old owns 238 toys, playing with just 12 in a typical day. All of these belongings contribute to disorganization and lost time. A study by Esure Home Insurance found looking for lost items accounts for 10 minutes of wasted time each day. Getting organized can take perseverance, but it’s possible.

POLL On January 8th, 2020, a Ukrainian airliner was shot down in Iran shortly after its takeoff from Tehran.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Use that Arian charm to help make a difficult workplace transition easier for everyone. News about a long-awaited decision can be confusing. Don’t jump to conclusions. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Although you might well be tempted to be more extravagant than you should be at this time, I’m betting you’ll let your sensible Bovine instinct guide you toward moderation. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) An opportunity for travel could come with some problems regarding travel companions and other matters. So be sure you read all the fine print before you start packing. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Make an effort to complete your usual workplace tasks before volunteering for extra duty. Scrambling to catch up later on could create some resentment among your colleagues. LEO (July 23 to August 22) A financial matter could have you rethinking your current spending plans. You might want to recheck your budget to see where you can cut back on expenses until the situation improves. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) One way to make your case for that promotion you’ve been hoping for might be to put your planning skills to work in helping to shape up a project that got out of hand. Good luck. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Be careful about “experts” who have no solid business background. Instead, seek advice on enhancing your business prospects from bona fide sources with good success records. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Standing up to support a colleague’s viewpoint -- even if it’s unpopular -- can be difficult if you feel outnumbered. But you’ll win plaudits for your honesty and courage. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) While progress continues on resolving that recurring problem, you might feel it’s taking too long. But these things always need to develop at their own pace. Be patient. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Someone close to you might have a financial problem and seek your advice. If you do decide to get involved, insist on seeing everything that might be relevant to this situation. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A personal matter takes an interesting turn. The question is, do you want to follow the new path or take time out to reconsider the change? Think this through before deciding. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Moving into a new career is a big step. Check that offer carefully with someone who has been there, done that, and has the facts you’ll need to help you make your decision. BORN THIS WEEK: Your warmth and generosity both of spirit and substance endears you to everyone. (c) 2020 King Features Synd., Inc.

Upcycling: Transforming the ‘Old’ into a Better ‘New’ Turn old or discarded furniture, cabinets and doors into fresh new creations through “upcycling” -- high-end “recycling” that reduces trash at landfills by refurbishing or repurposing existing pieces, often enhancing the value. Family furniture: Save chairs, tables, and other furniture passed down through the generations by doing repairs, if needed, and staining/painting to suit your current decor.
GET BACK TO LOVING YOUR DIGITAL LIFE AFTER A HACK
Preowned Items Can Be Good For The Environment Visit consignment stores: Consignment shops and Goodwill(R) stores are popular places to buy preowned items. These stores take donations or offer items for sale on consignment, which means once sold the person who provided the item gets a portion of the sale. When browsing the racks of these stores, it’s possible to discover highend items mixed in with less expensive items. Shoppers may find designer handbags and clothing for much less than they would sell at retail, especially if the pieces are one or two seasons old. Relying on these stores to supplement classic wardrobe pieces is cost-effective and beneficial to the environment. If you regularly shop consignment stores, you can develop a rapport with the shopkeeper, who may alert you when new items are available.
HAVE A BIG MOMENT TO SHARE WITH YOUR COMMUNITY?
(NAPSI)—Learning you’ve been hacked can be a bummer. Luckily, Allstate believes your online information is just as important as your home or car. To help you learn more about managing your digital footprint, visit www.HiddenWorldOfData.com, which is a hub of educational resources. You can learn more about where your data goes and how to better manage your data privacy and prevent any negative missteps. So whether you’ve been hacked or just want to take the right steps to prevent it from happening, Allstate has your back. 1. Don’t panic! Protecting your personal online data is equally important as your car or home. Having a plan in case you’re hacked can help limit what a thief might do with your information and potentially alleviate damage. 2. Say something. If you fear your banking information may be compromised, call and change your mobile banking passwords. While things are settling, unlink your bank account and card information from places like Venmo and PayPal. If your Social Security number is involved, contact the fraud department at any of the three creditreporting agencies and check credit reports for any suspicious activity. Lastly, let close contacts know you were hacked so they can avoid clicking on links that might come from you and not fall victim to something similar. 3. Be unique. Reality check: Life would be easier if we only needed to remember one password. But using the same password for multiple accounts can put you at greater risk of having information stolen. Defend your accounts with strong passwords (use upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters—go crazy!) and ensure each password you have is unique to that program or app. A great password manager can take the stress out of remembering a million different passwords! 4. Ask yourself how. It’s hard to understand why you were targeted but once you understand how hackers gain control of accounts and get personal information, you’ll get why Allstate wants you to prioritize protecting your digital footprint. Here are some actions that can potentially put your data at risk: • Password reuse
We love seeing the beauty of your hometown photos.
• Downloading malware • Using public Wi-Fi • Phishing scams. 5. Protect your phone with more than just a case. Cell phones are crazy convenient—but they also store a lot of highly sensitive information, becoming a prime target for hackers. It’s beneficial to take the time to add a passcode and touch ID to your phone. Keep your phone and apps updated to account for security upgrades from developers, and give only trusted apps access to your location, calendar, photos, etc.
Send us your favorite shots so we can share them with our community in print!
6. Learn savvy security measures. Good news—there’s so much you can do to help secure your digital footprint from fraudsters!

• Add two-factor authentication.
GVPENNYSAVER.COM
• Review your login activity for your e-mail service. • Use a password manager. • Make sure your phone has a passcode or set up touch ID. • Review which permissions you give each app. For example, do your social media apps need your location? Be sure to check out Allstate’s www.hiddenworldofdata.com to learn more about your digital footprint and how to keep information secure.

For millenia, people around the world have commemorated the arrival of a new calendar year by adhering to various traditions. Once such tradition is making resolutions for the year ahead. Resolutions are promises to oneself geared around personal fulfillment and betterment. Resolutions are widely practiced, but some people may not understand the origins of New Year’s resolutions and why they have become the norm. Some historians tie the practice of making resolutions to the ancient Babylonians. More than 4,000 years ago, the Babylonians celebrated the New Year in March rather than January. The spring harvest was in March, and a festival called Akitu, which lasted 12 days, was celebrated. An important part of the festival was the crowning of a new king. Special rituals also affirmed a connection to the gods. The Babylonians made promises to the gods, which included vows to return borrowed objects and pay outstanding debts. Resolutions can also be traced to ancient Rome. The Romans were instrumental in creating a more formal calendar, and the start of the new year was moved from March to January (January and February were added to the Roman calendar under the rule of Numa Pompilius). Julius Caesar wanted to honor January’s namesake, Janus, the Roman god of beginnings. Janus’ two faces enabled him to look back into the past and forward into the future. Sacrifices to Janus were made, and worshipers exchanged gifts with one another. A custom of setting resolutions began during this period as well, with Romans promising to be good to one another. Eventually, these resolutions were funneled into prayers and fasting when Christianity was adopted by the Roman Empire. Other religious parallels include the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, which is a day of atonement and reflection as celebrants examine their wrongdoings and seek forgiveness and to behave better moving forward. Yom Kippur follows Rosh Hashanah, Judaism’s own new year. Resolutions also may be loosely tied to Medieval times. During this time, knights took a “peacock vow” at the end of the Christmas season. Each year, these knights would reaffirm their commitment to chivalry. Today New Year’s resolutions are largely a secular tradition, but they’re still connected to a desire to be a good person and put one’s best self forward.

The George Eastman Museum Breaks Ground for New Visitor Center By Amanda Dudek
O
n Monday, January 6th, 2020, arts and cultural benefactors, Rochester area political leaders and friends of the George Eastman Museum joined the Ron and Donna Fielding Director of the George Eastman Museum, Bruce Barnes, and his staff as they broke ground on the museum’s new Thomas Tischer Visitor Center. Speaking in honor of the new Visitor Center were project benefactor and loyal museum patron, Thomas Tischer, New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) Executive Director Mara Manus, ESL Federal Credit Union President and Chief Executive Officer Faheem Masood, Monroe County Executive Adam Bello and City of Rochester Deputy Mayor James Smith. Barnes introduced Thomas Tischer, the visionary benefactor whose name will grace the new Visitor Center. Tischer has been involved with the museum for several decades. In 2012, he perceptively suggested to Barnes that the parking area adjacent too the museum would be a more appropriate location for the main entrance. In 2017, Tischer donated funds for the museum to hire an architectural firm to draw up some tentative project plans and he committed to providing an additional one million dollars in matching funds for the project if the museum were to receive a $1 million grant from the NYS Council on the Arts. It did. Seated on the stage with three other guests, Tischer was at once inspiring and disarmingly humble. “You may wonder, ‘Who is this person?’ because my name hasn’t appeared in the newspapers or anything,” he said modestly. Originally from Wisconsin, Tischer received his PhD in Organic Chemistry before applying for a position halfway across the country at Eastman Kodak. As a high schooler working at a chemist store, Tischer saw several representatives from different companies try very hard to get their products on the shelf, but the man from Kodak, “just simply sat down in a chair, opened his book and said, ‘Well, what do you want?’”
(l-r) George Eastman Museum Director Bruce Barns, Thomas Tischer and NYSCA Executive Director Mara Manus (Courtesy of the George Eastman Museum) “I came to realize that Kodak at that time was a leader in its field,” he said. Tischer began reading about George Eastman. “I said, ‘You know, now there was a fellow to admire,’” he explained. In 1961, Tischer took a position at Eastman Kodak in Rochester, remaining until he retired. “All the young kids... are amazed at the concept, but yes, that was it,” confirmed Tischer. Eastman Kodak continues to stand as a local legacy with its impressive history, industry-defining innovations in the field of photography and its world-class collections. Tischer felt that “it would be nice to have some accomplishment relative to that legacy.” Now, the Eastman Museum will have what he called, “a wonderful entrance that complements the features of the house, the archives, the exhibit area and above all, the gardens with the new colonnade.” Excited over the project’s expected impact, Mara Manus, Executive Director of NYSCA called the Eastman Museum “one of our state’s treasures and cultural temples,” stating she is “proud to share that this is the second time in the museum’s evolution that NYSCA has been able to participate with significant Capital funding.” Manus identified the new Visitor Center as a “critical undertaking to reimagine the museum’s space and entrance space and create a world-class visitor experience for a globally-renowned collection,” before adding, “We firmly believe this will usher in a new era of growth for the museum, for Rochester, the region and our state.”

Participants dig in at the George Eastman Museum’s new Thomas Tischer Visitor Center groundbreaking ceremony! (Courtesy of the George Eastman Museum) ESL – originally Eastman Savings & Loan – Federal Credit Union purchased the one million dolllar naming rights to what will be the ESL Federal Credit Union Pavilion within the new Visitor Center. ESL President and Chief Executive Officer Faheem Masood led ESL, founded by George Eastman for his employees in 1920, in celebrating the museum’s “evolution as a local arts and culture institution as [ESL] evolve[s] as a financial institution into our second century of serving the community.” Honored to support the building of a new Visitor Center, Masood declared it “a testament to the important role that arts and culture play in our community.” Monroe County Executive Adam Bello proclaimed the project “a great example of private and public collaboration in our community.” He recalled showing entrepreneurs the original incorporation papers for Eastman Kodak. “Over 100 years ago, George Eastman, Henry Strong and other Rochester luminaries... came... with an idea, as well, and their idea revolutionized the world... changed the world as we know it. If we can take that next generation and inspire them to do something great, then we are doing our job.” Finally, speaking on behalf of Mayor Lovely Warren, James Smith, Deputy Mayor of the City of Rochester, applauded the new Visitor Center, thanking partners at City Hall as well as the Governor and others. Smith’s father, a Rochester journeyman photoengraver for 40 years, made Smith what he calls, “a product of Rochester’s imaging economy,” giving the George Eastman Museum “a very special place” in his heart. Praising the museum as “an homage to all the men and women in this community who helped make those images happen,” Smith reaffirmed the necessity of investing in arts and cultural institutions which “are an industry in and of themselves.” He said, “The Mayor and I and everyone at City Hall are just so grateful when we can announce something like this because it will mean so much to folks like my family.” Enjoy this article?

UPGRADE ATTIC INSULATION TO SAVE ON ENERGY EXPENSES (NAPSI)—One of the most cost-effective ways to make your home more comfortable year-round is to add insulation to your attic, including the attic trap or access door. By sealing uncontrolled air leaks, points out the U.S. Department of Energy, you can save 10 percent to 20 percent on your heating and cooling bills. Fortunately, this can be a relatively easy task. Why Improve Your Insulation An improperly insulated attic can be a preventable source of energy loss and unnecessary expense. Over time, insulation can settle or compact, which reduces its R-value. An insulating material’s resistance to conductive heat flow is measured or rated in terms of its thermal resistance or R-value— the higher the R-value, the greater the insulating effectiveness. A breezy attic may also result in drifts or shifts in your original insulation, leaving gaps where heat can escape. By topping up your attic insulation, you’ll increase the thermal level, reducing your overall energy usage and saving you money. How To Do It A simple way to do this is to topup the existing insulation in your attic. This is one project that homeowners can often tackle for themselves. Look for timesaving, easy-to-install products, such as stone wool batts, that are easy to work with and don’t require costly blower rentals, protective clothing or an investment in expensive equipment. You can easily add Rockwool ComfortBatt insulation on top of most existing insulation to increase R-value in an attic without having to do any remediation or removal first. The batts will remain stable and won’t shift after they are put in place, ensuring upgraded thermal protection. They’re also: • Easily cut
All Property Maintenance
• Noncombustible • Excellent for sound absorbency • Not likely to rot or promote growth of fungi or mildew

• Water and moisture resistant. To apply the insulation, simply begin in one corner of the attic, open the bag and place the stone wool batts as needed to get a consistent layer throughout the attic. Make sure to cover spaces around ducts, wiring and piping, converting these awkward spaces into energy-saving areas. One of the advantages of stone wool batts is their compatibility with other insulation types, eliminating any need to remove existing product.

DID YOU KNOW? Retirement can seem like it will never come for young professionals. But time can be a sieve, and retirement age can arrive in the blink of an eye. Young adults who have not planned accordingly for retirement can find themselves in financial straits at a point in their lives when they want to kick back and enjoy themselves. Financial experts advise that financially solvent people should begin saving aggressively for their retirements early on. Ideally people should start saving in their 20s when they first leave school and begin their careers. The sooner one saves, the more time money has to grow. Vanguard says that the person who saves $4,500 per year over a career spanning 45 years can reach a goal of having more than $1 million in savings by the time he or she retires. Compounding interest and investment matches from employers can further secure professionals’ financial futures.
