THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF DAIRY
Heart health benefits: Some people avoid dairy because of perceptions that it is bad for cardiac health. A report presented at the 2018 Congress of the European Society of Cardiology that looked at 20 studies involving around 25,000 people found no association between the consumption of most dairy products (including whole fat varieties) and cardiovascular disease. The only exception was milk, but the results showed one would have to drink almost a liter of milk a day for a higher risk of cardiovascular disease. Still, the American Heart Association recommends adults choose fat-free or low-fat dairy products whenever possible. Also, a 2018 study published in the British Journal of Nutrition found men who ate plenty of fermented dairy products like yogurt and cheese had a smaller risk of coronary artery disease than men who ate less.

Drivers who aren't fond of taking their vehicles in for routine oil changes may want to consider electric vehicles the next time they're in the market for a new car or truck. According to Kia, electric vehicles, or EVs, do not require oil. Oil is necessary to lubricate the various moving parts in combustion engines. While synthetic oil and other advancements have increased the recommended oil change intervals from the once-standard 3,000 mile recommendation, manufacturers still advise drivers to get oil changes around every 5,000 miles or every six months, whichever comes first. No such maintenance is required with EVs because they consume batteries while running on electric motors. EV drivers will have to monitor certain fluids, though. Coolant is necessary to prevent batteries from overheating, and that can be periodically checked at drivers' discretion and during routine maintenance performed at an auto body shop. Drivers also can monitor and refill windshield washer fluid as necessary. Brake fluid in EV cars also needs to be replaced periodically, and Kia notes that its EVs need fresh brake fluid a er running about 25,000 miles. SC223756
REASONS TO SHOP FARMERS’ MARKETS
A farmers’ market can be an exciting and flavorful social gathering place for families and groups of friends, as well as a great place to meet other members of the community. Sometimes farmers also mingle with local artisans, so the market can be a one-stop-shopping locale for locally produced food and art.

Not all bees build the wax or paper structures associated with traditional beehives. Those hives may not be readily visible even for bees that do build them. Wood-nesting bees can nest in twigs or dead trees. Bees may nest underground or use the burrows abandoned by small rodents. Before excavating or disturbing more remote areas of the yard, check to see if it is a habitat for bees. Leave some natural areas of the landscape untouched and do not remove twigs, mounds of dirt and native flowers to attract more bees.

(Family Features) Here are three things you can do to help protect your mobile devices and your identity: Password protect your device. A recent study by Javelin Strategy and Research found that even though many smartphones are being used to handle sensitive financial information, only 33 percent of smartphone owners password-protect their devices. If your phone falls into the wrong hands, you could make it very easy for someone to access your personal information and steal your identity.
Review your social network privacy settings. It’s not just advertisers taking advantage of the personal information you include on your social network sites. As the use of social networking continues to increase, it’s expected that the use of malware will rise, too. Cybercriminals are always looking for ways to steal information and money. So you need to review your privacy settings frequently, be careful of what apps you install, and never “friend” someone you don’t know.
Consider getting extra protection. There are a growing number of tools available to help you monitor and protect your identity as well as restore your name and credit, should your identity get stolen. For example, Mobile Rhino is a specialty insurance program that not only insures your device, but also offers an Identity Monitoring Service that alerts you of any changes that could indicate someone else is using your information.
While it’s difficult to determine the exact cause of the canker without a thorough examination, there are some potential treatment options you could consider:
1. Pruning: Pruning affected branches is often recommended to remove the infected areas and improve air circulation. Be sure to sterilize your pruning tools before and after each cut to prevent spreading the disease further.
2. Fungicides: Depending on the severity of the canker, applying a fungicide specifically designed for fruit trees may help control the disease. However, it’s important to carefully follow the instructions on the product and consult with a local horticulturist or extension service for guidance.
3. Proper care: Ensuring that your plum tree receives proper care, such as regular watering, adequate nutrition, and maintaining overall tree health, can help it recover from canker and prevent future infections.
It’s important to note that the effectiveness of treatment may vary depending on the severity of the canker and the overall health of the tree. In some cases, if the canker has spread extensively and affected a significant portion of the tree,it may be too late to save it.Consulting with a professional arborist or horticulturist who can assess the situation in person would be the best course of action to determine the chances of saving the tree.
Does Your Family Have a Fire Escape Plan? (Family Features) When a home fire occurs, you have very little time to get out. A working smoke alarm doubles your chances of survival, yet more than twenty percent of American homes are without them. Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs teamed up to address this problem by providing vital fire safety information to families. Make a Plan Installing smoke alarms on every level of the home and developing a plan of escape can give your family precious minutes to get out and get to safety. Draw a floor plan of your home and sketch exit routes out of every room. Make sure you have a fire escape ladder long enough to reach the ground from upstairs rooms. Assign an outside meeting place, so you can quickly locate each other

Bisphosphonates Cause Esophageal Disorders To Worsen
DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m a 68-year-old female with osteopenia. My doctor wants me to take a bone medication such as Boniva or Fosamax. I’ve read that folks with esophageal issues may be harmed by taking these. Can you explain why? -- C.M.C.
ANSWER: First off, we don’t usually treat isolated low bone mass (osteopenia) with powerful medicines like the ones you mentioned, which are both bisphosphonates. These medicines have the potential for harm and should only be used when the benefits clearly outweigh the risks.
A person with low bone mass and a history of a fragility fracture has osteoporosis, regardless of their bone density. Some people with low bone density may be at such a high risk for fracture (based on their FRAX score) that treatment is indicated. Before treating someone with medication, many authorities recommend a 10year risk of a fracture of 20% or higher (or a risk of a hip fracture of 3% or higher). You should find out your FRAX score.
The issue with the esophagus is that if pills get stuck in the esophagus, they can cause severe damage to it. So, people with esophageal disorders -- such as achalasia, esophageal stricture or varices, or Barrett’s esophagus -- should not take these types of medicines by mouth. People with reflux without these complications can take oral bisphosphonates as long as they can comply with staying upright for 30 minutes after taking them.
* "Berries are in season, and I use berry baskets for lots of little storage uses. e best one is to use one to hold my sponges at the sink area. It keeps small brushes corralled as well." -- I.R. in Florida
* To keep salt from coming out of a saltshaker too quickly, add some plain, uncooked white rice to the salt. e large grains of rice will block some of the holes, causing less salt to come out with each shake.
* "When I take my dog to 'Grandma' for dog sitting, I measure out each meal into a plastic zipper-top bag. is way, Mom doesn't have to remember how much to feed at each mealtime, and it makes it easy to serve." -- V.Y. in Texas

Get Summer-Ready with Expert Style Tips (Family Features) Warm weather means fun-filled days spent in the sun by a pool or at the beach. Style and beauty-on-abudget expert Lilliana Vazquez of www.CheapChicas.com shares the following tips to help you get summer-ready.
Add bold prints: As the weather heats up, don’t be afraid to have fun with your wardrobe and incorporate bold prints like polka dots or florals. When styling, stick with solids for the rest of your outfit. One of Lilliana’s favorite looks is nauticalinspired stripes - a classic style that’s on trend this year. Try a lightweight blazer or preppy skirt that can be paired with other items from your closet.

Avon Corn Festival 2024: A Celebration of Community and Tradition
BY ROBERT MELLEN
With the giant shadow cast by Covid finally fading, Avon Rotary’s festival planning is revving up for a potential record year. Already there are 150 vendors registered, more than any since 2008 when numbers were first tracked. And both entertainment stages are fully booked to provide day-long performances.
“We’re excited to invite you to the 36th annual festival,” said festival Chairman Collin Hayes. “Since 1986, the festival has attracted visitors from across the region to celebrate our rich agricultural history and all that Avon has to offer.” Last year more than 6,200 people accepted the invitation.
Avon Rotary says when they first planned this community festival, they chose to celebrate corn because of its impact on our region. “Corn has been a staple of our agricultural heritage ever since the Native Americans grew corn here as one of the “three sisters,” along with beans and squash.”
e Festival, held every year on the second Saturday in August, draws thousands of people from the region to see friends, browse arts and cra s, listen to a wide range of music, play games, enjoy festival food as well as locally brewed cra beer at the Beer Garden, and don’t forget the annual corn eating contest.
Anchored by Rotary’s popular corn booth, about 20 other vendors will be ready at 10 a.m. Aug. 10 to serve their versions of tasty delights. Cornhole opportunities are expanding too. Along with a very competitive level of games with $1,000 in prizes for serious players, there will be games for folks who just want to have fun. “Don’t miss out on competing for prizes,” said Julie Carney, the event’s organizer. “ e proceeds will benefit the Livingston County Humane Society.”
Further in keeping with the promise of family fun, a bounce house and duck pond are featured in the kid zone, along with Mr. Scribbles, a favorite. Also this year, the corn-eating contest will be open to all ages.
“ e Rotary Corn Fest team has been working hard to create a fun-filled summer destination for families of all ages,” club President Karen Vanderbilt said. “We remember the joy of small-town festivals, and we hope to create lasting memories
for everyone who attends. ere’s something for everyone at the Corn Festival!”
As always, the heart of the festival are the arts and cra s vendors. With roughly 150 vendors, it’s easy to find practically every kind of item a cra fair can offer. Among the many are jewelry, dog and cat gi s, needle arts, home décor, clothing, wood cra s, Christmas items, resin art, fiber art, ghee, used vehicles, honey, Mexican cra s, wine, pottery, sunflowers and more, seemingly without end.
Entertainment will be topnotch with bands on the main stage, including Your American Jukebox Big Band playing music from the 1920s to today, Bob’s Brothers Band offering rock and soul music, and folk singer-songwriter Adrianna Noone.
Performing on the Genesee Street stage will be Miss Natale’s Dance Centre, Dance Emporium, the classic rock group Trilogy and Gates Swingers Big Band, playing big band classics. To cap off the day, the ever-popular Skycoasters will play a free 3-hour concert at 7:30 p.m.
Hayes explains, “As the Avon Rotary Club’s largest fundraiser, all of the club’s proceeds from this event are invested directly back into supporting many great causes in the community,” including Boy Scouts, the Avon Food Pantry, Teresa House, Linking Hands for Learning, Shelter Box, Honor Flight, Genesee Valley Rotary Camp, Rotary International Youth Exchange, and many more.
e festival has handicapped parking available as well as regular shuttle service from the main parking area at the Avon High School, only minutes from the festival site.

YOU KNOW? According to the U.S. Department of Labor and data from the U.S. Census Bureau, registered nurse is the most common occupation for women in the United States labor force. Slightly less than 2.1 million women worked as registered nurses in 2017, the most recent year for which statistics are available. Such figures are harder to come by in regard to Canada, but Statista reports that the labor participation rate among women in Canada in 2018 was right around 64 percent. That rate marks a slight decrease from its 21st century peak in 2005, when 66.7 percent of women were active members of the Canadian workforce. In the United States, more than two million women worked as secretaries or administrative assistants in 2017, making these professions the second most common occupation among female workers. Elementary and middle school teachers was the third most common occupation for female professionals, employing more than 1.9 million women in 2017. Data from the U.S. Census Bureau also indicates that women have the lion’s share of jobs in an assortment of professions, including preschool and kindergarten teachers, secretaries and administrative assistants, childcare workers, and dental assistants. Women hold at least 92 percent of the jobs in each of those professions in the United States.

THE TYPE OF LODGING ACCOMMODATION
Motel: Motels are budget-friendly options geared toward motorists. As the American highway system was developed in the early twentieth century, motels fulfilled the cross-country traveler’s need for roadside stops. In fact, the “mo” in “motel” refers to “motor.” Motels are built for short stays, and tend to have rooms that open up into parking lots for ease of use.

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My dog “Shakes” is a “bolter” -- he will bolt out the door and straight into the street if I’m not careful. I worry constantly about him getting lost in the woods nearby. If that happens, what should I do? I feel that lost pets don’t get found very o en. -- Jamie B. in Egypt, Maine
DEAR JAIME: Most dogs who get lost are found and returned to their owners at fairly high rates -- between 81% and 97%, according to a 2012 report. at doesn’t make it any less stressful to their owners, who must scour the neighborhood and put up signs to find their dogs. e statistics for cats are much worse, with only 45% to 72% being returned to their owners. A bunch of things make it harder to find a lost cat: no ID tag, if the cat’s collar breaks away on an obstacle or no microchip. Cat owners wait much longer than dog owners to report their cat missing -- probably because they feel most cats will come home on their own. ose stats aside, Shakes would benefit greatly from being trained not to react when the front door opens. Each day, do about 15 minutes of training with him:
-- Put Shakes on a leash and lead him toward the front door. Command “sit.”
-- Reach out for the front doorknob. If Shakes starts forward, bring your hand back to your side and command “sit” again.
-- Repeat the doorknob reach until he no longer reacts but remains sitting. When he does this, give him a tiny treat.
-- Progress to turning the knob, opening the door and leaving the door open. Shakes should remain sitting for each level to be successful.
Keep the training fun, and be consistent. It’ll help Shakes stay safe inside and improve your peace of mind.Send your tips, comments or questions to ask@pawscorner.com.

DID YOU KNOW? According to the Environmental Protection Agency, air currents can carry pesticides that were applied to nearby properties. That means even people who do not apply pesticides in their lawns and gardens can still be at risk of exposure to these potentially harmful chemicals. People concerned by the prospect of being exposed to the pesticides being applied by their neighbors can stay indoors with their children and pets while the substances are being applied. Those who live near fields and parks where pesticides are routinely applied can plant hardy, thick-branched trees to reduce their risk of airborne exposure.The EPA notes that such plants and shrubs can serve as buffers against airborne pesticides, essentially acting as walls around a property that prevent gusty winds from blowing pesticides into yards and gardens.
What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfillment of the promise of the earlier months, and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade. ~Gertrude Jekyll

UNDERSTANDING LIFE INSURANCE
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.

DISTRACTIONS THAT CAN AFFECT EFFICIENCY AT WORK Emails: Emailsareanothersignificantdistractionduringatypicalworkday.Toovercome the seemingly endless flood of emails coming from coworkers, friends and family during the day, professionals can work in offline mode for a predetermined period of time each day. This affords the opportunity to work on specific tasks or projects without being interrupted by emails.Emails will still accumulate while the computer is in offline mode,but professionals won’t be notified as each message is delivered and will be able to work distraction-free until they turn offline mode off.

WAYS ESTABLISHED PROFESSIONALS CAN IMPROVE THEIR RÉSUMÉS
Rather than focusing on job responsibilities at each job you held, gear the résumé around what you achieved in each position. This will help identify how you performed in the position, instead of just a general retelling of what you did. It can be challenging to achieve this for jobs that don’t naturally lend themselves to numerically quantitative results (i.e., increased department sales by 15 percent), but it’s still possible to use a résumé to illustrate your achievements.
Ratherthanstatethatyouwereresponsibleforprovidingcustomerservice, explainthatyoubuiltyourreputationonconveyingdifficulttechnicalterms to the layperson, serving as the go-to employee for translating job jargon for outside correspondence.
If you have quantitative proof of how you accomplished something, certainly add it. This can include measures of profit growth, reduction of debt or increase in customer base.

Roller coasters are a staple of amusement parks, and even though the first patent for a roller coaster was issued to LaMarcus Thompson in 1885, it’s believed modern roller coasters descended from winter sled rides made popular in the 17th century in St. Petersburg, Russia. Called “Russian Mountains,” these thrill rides took place on icy hills that may have reached as high as 200 feet in the air.

ENJOYING THRILLS AT AMUSEMENT PARKS
One of the more beloved ways for thrill-seekers to spend a day off is to visit an amusement park. Amusement parks take many shapes. Some may be small, traveling carnivals, while others are large parks that draw visitors from all over the country. Amusement parks typically feature hair-raising rides, games of skill, tasty food, and gift shops. That means there’s something for everyone.
Although they may seem like a relatively modern concept, amusement parks, fairs and carnivals actually have storied histories. In fact, historians say that carnivals and local fairs have been around since the Middle Ages. According to History.com, amusement parks, once dubbed “pleasure gardens” and “trolly parks,” sprung up across the United States and Europe in the 19th century.

GO GREEN WHEN SPENDING TIME OUTDOORS THIS SUMMER
Embrace eco-friendly activities. Various activities, from organic gardening to planting trees to beach cleanups, provide a great way to get outdoors and help the planet at the same time. Men and women who grow their own vegetables can take solace knowing that the vegetables they’re eating each night did not require the depletion of any natural resources to go from garden to table. Signing up for beach cleanups can prevent trash, including harmful plastics, from making its way into the world’s oceans, and such cleanups provide a great excuse to go to the beach.
