November 11th Veterans Day

those in the military have given to our country. With this in mind, we are dedicating the four weeks in November to our veterans through a series which will educate and enlighten our readers. Our thanks to our sponsor.

How to show your support for veterans

Supporting veterans is a worthy endeavor at any time of year, though such e orts tend to be more prominent in November. Veterans Day is celebrated annually on November 11 in honor of the millions of individuals across the United States who are military veterans. e day coincides with holidays such as Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, which are celebrated in other countries and also honor military veterans. ere’s no denying that veterans need the support of the people whose freedoms they protect. According to a 2021 study from researchers at Brown University’s Watson Institute for International and Public A airs, the percentage of veterans with disabilities is signi cantly higher among post-9/11 veterans (40 percent) than it was with veterans from previous eras (25 percent for Gulf War I veterans and 13 percent for veterans of previous wars). Veterans can bene t from support legislated by elected o cials in Washington, D.C., but there’s also many things ordinary citizens can do to show how much they appreciate the sacri ces veterans and their families have made and will make in the years to come.

• Visit wounded veterans. e United States Census Bureau reports that more than one-third of the nearly 3.8 million men and women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces since September 2001 have a service-connected disability. Many of these individuals are ghting to overcome physical injuries sustained while on active duty. Individuals who want to show their support for veterans can contact their local Veterans A airs (VA) facility to arrange a visit to wounded veterans. Such visits can li veterans’ spirits and reassure them that their sacri ces are both acknowledged and appreciated.

• Support legislation that supports veterans. ough it might seem like a no-brainer, legislation to support veterans o en faces an uphill battle to get passed. By supporting legislation that ensures veterans get the support they need, individuals can send a message to veterans that they haven’t been forgotten and that the very democratic principles they fought to protect are

alive and well. Citizens can write letters to their elected o cials, urging them to support veteran-friendly legislation, and raise awareness of bills and laws through social media.

• Help raise awareness about homeless veterans. Data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development estimates that approximately 40,000 veterans are homeless on any given night. But that gure doesn’t tell the whole story, as the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans notes that, over the course of a year, roughly twice that many veterans experience homelessness. e National Coalition for Homeless Veterans (NCHV) believes that programs to assist homeless veterans should focus on helping them reach a point where they can obtain and sustain gainful employment. In addition, the NCHV feels that the most e ective programs are community-based, nonpro t, “veterans helping veterans” groups. Individuals can o er their support to such groups through nancial donations or other means so they can continue to ensure no veteran sleeps on the street.

Veterans Day is a time to show veterans that their service and sacri ces are not taken for granted. Visiting wounded veterans and supporting e orts to ensure veterans get what they need to live full, healthy and happy lives is a great way to send the message that veterans are appreciated.

DID YOU KNOW?

The pinnacle of birthday celebrations, if there’s no piñata to break open, is when the birthday cake comes out and party attendees serenade the guest of honor. The song everyone harmonizes to is among the most widely recognized and well-loved tunes in the world. The “birthday song,” also known as “Happy Birthday to You,” is in the public domain in the United States and the European Union. The song originally was penned as a classroom greeting song titled “Good Morning to All,” written by sisters Mildred J. Hill and Patty Smith Hill. Both were educators and developed unique teaching strategies to assist students. The song was composed by Mildred and the lyrics were written by Patty to be used in kindergarten classrooms.

It is unclear who changed the lyrics and turned the song into a birthday ditty, as none of the earliest references to the song included credits or copyright notices. Two tales circulate regarding the eventual copyright of the song. One has The Summy Company registering a copyright in 1935, crediting authors Preston Ware Orem and Mrs. R. R. Forman. The other says Jessica Hill, sister to Mildred and Patty, who was working with publisher Clayton F. Summy Company, copyrighted and published “Happy Birthday to You” in 1935.Eventually Warner Chappell bought the company that was originally The Summy Company, and argued the birthday song was under copyright until 2030, making performances of the song illegal without paying royalties. However, a federal judge ruled in 2015 that Warner Chappell’s claim to a copyright on the song was not valid. The judge ruled its registration only covered a specific piano version, not the melody and lyrics. Therefore, “Happy Birthday to You” can be sung both privately and publicly without being subject to royalties or other restrictions.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Excess Connective Tissue Leads to Outward Skin Condition

DEAR DR. ROACH: In my 40s, I developed lumps in the palm of my hands. I was diagnosed with Dupuytren’s contracture and underwent hand surgery to correct the condition. I also noticed similar lumps in the arches of my feet, which don’t cause any pain, so I’ve not sought treatment for my feet. Now in my mid-60s, I have experienced a severe bend in my penis. I assume it’s Peyronie’s disease. The bend has lessened over several months. What is the cause and connection between these phenomenon? Should I seek treatment? -- B.M.

ANSWER: All three of the conditions you mention are related to excess growth of connective tissue. In the hand, Dupuytren’s contracture is caused by excess growth of a connective cell (called a fibroblast) in the superficial palmar fascia (fascia is the thick, tough connective tissue found in many places in the body). A very similar condition in the plantar fascia (“plantar” refers to the sole of the feet) is called plantar fibromatosis (also called Ledderhose disease).

Peyronie’s disease is also caused by excess growth of fibroblasts, with deposition of collagen plaques in the penis, causing pain and deformity of the penis. This, in turn, can cause psychological distress and sexual dysfunction. Twenty-one percent of people with Peyronie’s also have Dupuy-tren’s contracture. It is thought that repeated trauma, whether to the hand, penis or foot, is a trigger for the abnormal fibroblast activity in people with a genetic predisposition.

Many men do not speak to their physician about Peyronie’s disease, so they don’t get referred to a urologist, who can discuss the options for treatment. Treatment may include medications, injection and surgery, and referral to an expert is appropriate for all men in whom the condition is suspected.

WHAT CAUSES EATING DISORDERS?

Personality traits. Individuals with certain personality traits may be at risk for eating disorders. Excessive persistence and rigidity, impulsivity, neuroticism, harm avoidance, perfectionism,and obsessive thinking are traits often seen in people with eating disorders.

ADVICE FOR BLOOD DONORS

Unlike other marvels of modern medicine, quality blood is an important health component that cannot be created synthetically. Blood shortages continue to plague medical establishments across the globe. For those who require transfusions, blood from volunteer donors can be the difference between life and death. However, many people are apprehensive about donating blood because of their own unique fears of the unknown or from past poor experiences with the process. With a little knowledge and some preparation, donating blood can be made much easier.

Confirming donors’ health: One of the first steps to donating blood is to determine donors’ eligibility. Potential donors undergo a short health screening and are asked various questions to determine their eligibility. The presence of certain illnesses or other disqualifications helps ensure that the blood will be healthy and that the blood drawn will not have a negative effect on the donor.

The American Red Cross states that potential donors will undergo a pin prick on the finger to test for iron levels in their blood. This is to ensure that donors will not be made anemic from giving blood.

Frequency of donation, weight and age also will be considered before prospective donors are allowed to donate blood. Many organizations urge prospective donors to avoid giving blood if they have had simple dental work done within 24 hours or major dental work in the past month. Dental work in general can dislodge bacteria, which can get into the blood stream and cause systemic infection.

Preparing to donate: Potential donors are urged to eat a healthy diet full of iron-rich foods. It is adviseable to drink an extra 16 ounces of water or a nonalcoholic fluid prior to donating. A healthy, low-fat meal prior to donating also is recommended, as the Red Cross says fatty foods can adversely affect blood tests that check for infectious diseases, and the blood may not be used as a result.

Needles are no big deal: According to Justin Kreuter, MD, medical director of the Mayo Clinic Blood Donor Center in Rochester, Minnesota, while the needles used to collect blood are slightly larger than those used for immunizations at the doctor’s office, the needles have silicone on them to make the process of donating more comfortable for donors.

Donation duration: Donating blood does not take a long time. It may take between 15 and 20 minutes for donation center workers to extract blood. Donating plasma or platelets may require more time. Allocate at least an hour to undergo the medical exam and to rest after the donation.

Post-donation: Donors are urged to rest for a few minutes after the donating and to enjoy the snacks and beverages being offered. The Red Cross says people should avoid performing any heavy lifting or vigorous exercise for the rest of the day after donating. It’s also adviseable to drink an extra four glasses of liquids and avoid alcohol during the day following a donation.

Donating blood can save lives and reassure donors that they’re doing their part to help others.

CHRISTMAS TREE VARIETIES

Living Christmas tree, which refers to those with their roots still intact, are popular among eco-conscious holiday enthusiasts. That’s because living trees can be promptly planted after they’ve served their purpose indoors. Opt for a moderately sized tree, as root balls on larger trees can be heavy and difficult to move. Living trees can typically be kept indoors for around seven to 10 days before they will need to be returned outside. Move such trees to a sheltered outdoor area for one to two weeks so they can reacclimate to the climate. So long as the ground is not frozen, trees can then be planted when the reacclimation period ends. Better Homes and Gardens suggests selecting a mild day to plant the tree.

Around and around the house the leaves fall thick—but never fast, for they come circling down with a dead lightness that is sombre and slow. Let the gardener sweep and sweep the turf as he will, and press the leaves into full barrows, and wheel them off, still they lie ankle-deep.

~Charles Dickens, Bleak House

Bullying affects education

Almost 160,000 teenagers have skipped school because of bullying.

ANTI-BULLYING

Reporting is an issue

Older students are less likely to report bullying incidents, which is why it's so essential for others to intervene on their behalf.

HOW TO OBSERVE ANTI-BULLYING WEEK

What do YOUR socks look like?

Types of bullying

Verbal harassment is the most common form of bullying at 79%, followed by social harassment at 50%, physical bullying at 29%, and cyberbullying at 25%.

Stepping in makes a difference 57% of bullying situations stop when peers intervene on behalf of the bullied student.

Calling it out Labeling incidents as bullying influences whether students tell an adult and how the adult will respond to the incident.

Well, it’s a marvelous night for a moondance

With the stars up above in your eyes

A fantabulous night to make romance

’Neath the cover of October skies

And all the leaves on the trees are falling

To the sound of the breezes that blow

And I’m trying to please to the calling

Of your heartstrings that play soft and low...

~Van Morrison, “Moondance,” recorded 1969

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* Got soap scum? Mix dishwashing detergent with baking soda and use it to scrub bathroom walls. It’s very effective, and surprisingly gentle, as baking soda is a mild abrasive that works well without scratching.

* “Unless the label states otherwise, the best rinse temperature for clothing is cold water. It will help the clothing retain its shape and color better, and -- bonus -- it’s the least expensive setting.” -- I.F. in Texas

* When whipping egg whites, make sure you bring your eggs to room temperature beforehand. They will yield greater volume.

* Store asparagus in the fridge only for a few days before serving. Trim the cut end and use wet paper towels to wrap it. Keep it in the crisper drawer.

* Getting your old deck of cards out to play? If they feel gummy, put them in a plastic baggie, add a little bit of talc, baby powder or cornstarch, seal the bag and shake. Knock the excess off before removing from the bag. Shuffle as usual.

* “Wanna spot clean your floor? Spray an old pair of socks with floor cleaner, put them on and do the cha-cha-cha.” -- V.B. in Iowa

STRANGE BUT TRUE

By Lucie Winborne

* A study revealed that people scored higher in a mental agility test while wearing a lab coat they believed was a doctor’s coat. The effect was not there when they believed the same white coat was a painter’s coat.

Veterinary careers

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I’d love to work with animals as a career. But I’m not sure I want to go through years of college to become a veterinarian, especially with the cost of tuition. I also want to be sure I really do like this career. How can I switch into the veterinary eld? -- Janice in San Diego

DEAR JANICE: Working with animals can be rewarding at any level, so kudos for pursuing your dream! Many people in the veterinary eld start as veterinary assistants working at veterinary practices, shelters or labs. You’ll work directly with animals and learn how to care for them from more experienced assistants, vet techs and veterinarians.

e pay isn’t very high -- the median salary is about $15 an hour, or just under $30,000 a year, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. But the requirements for entry are low. A license isn’t needed, nor a formal certi cation. You learn on the job.

Experience working with animals is a typical requirement in job listings for veterinary assistants. You can gain this by volunteering at shelters, pet sitting for neighbors or any activity where animals need to be fed, watered, brushed and bedded down.

Another great way to learn about the eld is to ask someone who works in it. If you have a pet, talk to the people you interact with at the vet’s o ce during the annual checkup. Ask the veterinary assistant and tech how they started their careers, what their job is like, and what pitfalls they’ve encountered. Chat with the veterinarian about what motivated them to become a vet. You’ll gain the most information from people who are actively working in the eld -- both the good parts and the bad.

SENIOR NEWS

Two important product recalls

Several disturbing items have been in the news lately. Have you heard about these product recalls?

CPAP machines: Two dozen di erent CPAP machines have been recalled. e list includes Bilevel PAP, BiPAP or BPAP machines, as well as the CPAP. e reason is a bit frightening. Black foam pieces can come loose and be breathed in or swallowed.

While the recall was issued quite a long time ago, the Food and Drug Administration just updated that information with this alert: If you now have one of the repaired or replaced machines (due to the previous recall), testing is currently being done to ensure that the repair foam used is OK.

e reason for the concern and the current testing: ere have been deaths, far too many deaths, from the breakdown of the foam used in the machines.

To learn more about this, go online to: https://tinyurl.com/hvy73j36. You can also call the Philips company at 877-907-7508.

e recall says not to stop using the machine until you talk to your doctor, whether you have an original machine or one that was repaired or is a replacement.

Bedrails on portable beds: e Consumer Product Safety Commission (and several companies) issued a warning for thousands of portable bedrails, the ones that attach to the sides of beds to keep someone from falling out. e problems are so serious that deaths were reported when people became wedged between the mattress and the rail.

ese bedrails were made under various names. Your best bet is to call the Consumer Product Safety Commission and ask about bedrail recalls to be sure you learn about all possible brands. Contact them at 800-638-2772.

For more information, go to the FDA website (fda.gov) and put “Safety Concerns about Bed Rails” in the search box.

For overall recall information, keep an eye on this government site: www.cpsc.gov/recalls

Lance Corporal Roger Dale Yencer, A True American Hero

BY JODY GREER

Veterans Day is a time to remember the Americans who served our nation. ese courageous servicemen and women represent the best of us. To honor the memory of one of those Americans, a local hometown hero, Roger Yencer Sr., a special ceremony was held last Saturday at the Halley-Allen Post dedication ceremony in Sonyea, NY. A former military veteran and American Legion member, Lance Corporal Roger Dale Yencer served two years and eight months and several operations during his time in Vietnam. He passed away in 2020. As most people who knew him can tell you, he was a true American hero.

e dedication ceremony presented certi cates of appreciation to Dave Spallina of Spallina Materials and Jim Olverd of Kircher Construction. Both companies dedicated materials and labor to construct a newly furnished porch addition to the Hally-Allen Post in recognition of Yencer’s life and legacy. Both Spallina and Olverd are longtime friends of Yencer, going back many years. Upon being presented with the certi cate of recognition, Spallina stated, “It warmed my heart that they did something like that for me. Roger and I would have joked about it and said something silly over it, but I know it’s for Roger and I would do anything for him, if he was still here.” When asked to describe Roger as a person, Spallina remarked, “He’s a true friend. I can’t say enough about him. I could never say anything wrong about Roger. He was a wonderful man.”

Yencer Sr.’s son, Roger Yencer Jr. , was also in attendance for the ceremony. He recalls lovingly, “No matter what time of the day, if the village needed something, my dad would respond. He touched the community. He personally helped if someone needed something. His business would also always help people. at’s how dad was.”

at business was Yencer Construction, which was active for thirty years before Yencer’s retirement in 2007. While it is no longer in existence today, many fondly remember the contributions Yencer made through his business, and as an individual. According to Yencer’s daughter, Amy Yencer, “my dad didn’t have the best life growing up; his father (my grandfather) passed away when he was very young, so he worked at a younger age to help support my grandmother. My dad didn’t have anything, and that’s why he chose to give to others.”

One of those contributions was Livingston County’s Veterans Park located in Mt. Morris, NY which was established in 2001. e park pays homage to veterans from all wars, but also pays a special and moving tribute to four of Yencer’s fallen comrades. A plaque in the park commemorates his fellow Marines, known simply as “Tex, Bell, Doc and Sparks”. ese fellow U.S. Marines from the Fox-Trot Second Battalion and ird Platoon, never had a chance to make it home to their families, but Yencer found a way to remember their sacri ce in a way that time will never forget. It’s unclear whether Yencer himself

knew the real names of these men, as they were only referred to by their nicknames during combat. What is clear however, is that he knew how important it was to carry on the memory of their sacri ce, and the sacri ce made by all who serve their country. Yencer was able to honor the memory of George Riordan, “Doc,” in a way few people thought was possible. He once spearheaded a surprise ceremony for the Riordan family from Dover, New Hampshire with the aid of nine separate VFW organizations and ten American Legion organizations. Yencer later remarked, “We were nally able to give the military respect that he and his family deserved. All came to give tribute thirty years later for their fallen comrade. e support was unbelievable.”

e Veterans Park is the ideal destination point to visit this Veterans Day holiday. Widely considered a local point of interest, the park boasts an abundance of picturesque scenery decorated with plaques and monuments commemorating veterans who served from the Civil War up until the Afghanistan Wars. Recently, in 2018, the Mt. Morris Fire Department donated a steel beam that was once a part of the World Trade Center building, in memory of all who lost their lives on 9/11.

is Veterans Day, take a moment of re ection, and remember local hometown heroes like Roger Yencer Sr. who served their country and

Thank You!

I would like to give a Huge Thank You to the guys at the Cortese Detail Center. My car was stolen and not found for a week. When I got it back I wasn't sure I even wanted it back. It was trashed Kevin and Gary explained what they could do. When they finished the detailing, it looked liked new. I’m very happy to have my car back!

Outdoor Beauty!

We enjoyed beautiful flowers in our parks and towns all summer, despite the dry start. Many thanks to the town crews, businesses, and volunteers that maintained them. Now with fall, homes and towns are lovely with fall displays with pumpkins, scarecrows, mums and more! Your efforts are enjoyed and appreciated!

Good Deed

I was picking up my subs in Wayland when a good deed guy came in to buy 2 sheet pizzas to boost the morale of his co-workers. I mentioned how great that was for him to do. The next thing I know, he had paid for our subs as well. Angels do exist.

Riga Recreation Halloween Parade

Even the early rain could not dampen the spirits of Trick or Treaters for the Riga Recreation/Churchville Lion's Club annual Halloween Parade. The large and enthusiastic crowd of "Tricksters" were lead through the streets of Churchville by the Churchville Fire Truck and "Fairy Godmother"(Lion, Verna) to the nicely decorated Village Gazebo where they were greeted by members of the Lion's Club and the Union Congregational Church to receive "goodie bags" and apples. Local business gift certificates were also given to uniquely costumed boys & girls!

Many thanks to the Riga Town Board, Village of Churchville, Churchville Lions and LEO Clubs, Union Congregational Church, Churchville FD and Fire Police, parents, trick or treaters, and Fairy Godmother, Verna, for leading the way!

Rudeness?...YES

I agree with all the talk about rudeness of people today! I recently moved back to the area and the rudeness of the people in this area is shocking! If it’s not the words coming out of their mouths, it’s their attitude on the roads, in the stores or walking down the street. I have really seen this with people on the roads. I’ve almost had 2-3 accidents because people think driving rules don’t pertain to them. They have no idea who has the right of way. Folks, the Exit from[local sotre} is an ENTRANCE and EXIT. If you are leaving and in the left hand lane, you are in the wrong lane! I’m really disappointed in people of my home town.

Inconsiderate Neighbors

I live where there is a shared driveway between three houses. Most of the time there are no problems. My vehicle has been hit in my parking area while parked - no one came and told me, of course. I had had my vehicle just two days at that point. So, of course, it goes on my insurance. Now the neighbor up behind has their kids in and out all day long. No problem except their truck has a LOUD muffler and they go past my living room window at least 5 or 6 times, sometimes parking and leaving it running to listen to for 15 to 20 minutes at a time. There is no shutting the noise out as my house is too close. This is not a cool noise. It needs to be quieted down.

Daylight Savings

I do not think daylight savings should end as it is a safety issue for school children. They walk, cross roads, and board busses in the dark. In today’s society, and with drivers ignoring bus stop signs, it is just not safe. If it stops changing, then schools should consider starting one hour later, which has already been a possibility in the past.

RELIEVE STRESS THROUGHOUT THE DAY

Stress

are as varied as the people it afflicts. In its 2017 Stress in AmericaTM survey, the American Psychological Association found that the three most common sources of stress were the future of the nation (63 percent), money (62 percent) and work (61 percent). According to the National Institute of Mental Health, routine stress that becomes chronic can result in a host of negative side effects. Such stress can suppress the immune system, disrupt digestion and have an adverse effect on sleep. But men and women who feel stressed at the end of each day need not resign themselves to sleepless nights and/or weakened immune systems. A proactive approach to alleviating stress during the day can help men and women reduce their stress levels and avoid the negative side effects associated with chronic stress.

TIPS FOR STAYING SAFE AND CONNECTED DURING A MOVE

(NAPSI) — Planning a move can be stressful, but planning a move in the midst of an unprecedented pandemic brings a new set of challenges. Stay safe and connected with some smart pre-move planning; here are some tips:

Follow Approved Protocols — If you can’t postpone your move, take extra precautions before moving in to ensure your new place is clean. Follow general disinfecting guidelines set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Among other surfaces, disinfect doors, door handles, bathrooms, kitchen appliances, countertops and—something many people don’t really think about—cabinet and doorknobs as well as light switches.

Safely Stay Connected — New work-from-home protocols and online schooling mean reliable Internet connectivity is more important than ever. Prior to your move, SmartMove can connect you to your local provider and help arrange new Touchless Installs that let you safely connect your tech services yourself. Cable companies deliver equipment with step-by-step activation information so you can set up your system on your own, or with support over the phone, online, through chat functionality or video tutorials. In most cases, no technician will need to enter your home.

Keep in Touch & Maintain Daily Routines — You may be staying in more, but don’t forget to take a break from unpacking boxes. Use your new online connection to find delivery services to help stock your pantry and fridge and refill prescriptions. Your new house will feel more like home if you take time to watch your favorite shows, maintain your exercise program or explore online courses that can help you discover new talents or resume old hobbies. Don’t forget to connect with friends through group video chats or viewing parties—you can even take your friends and family on a virtual tour of your new place!

INNOVATIVE SCHOOL IS A TRAINING GROUND FOR ARTISTS

(NAPSI)—Art classes have slowly but steadily all but disappeared from public schools over the years. Lack of funding has been the culprit, but educators tend to agree that the arts play a crucial role in the academic and creative development of our children.

One public school in Greenville, South Carolina is embracing a different model and provides a haven for young artists from across the state to discover, develop and hone their talents. The South Carolina Governor’s School for the Arts and Humanities offers preprofessional training to its students in the areas of creative writing, dance, drama, music, and visual arts. As a public, residential high school serving juniors and seniors, it helps students refine their talents in a master-apprentice community while receiving nationally recognized academic education.

TheGovernor’sSchoolalsoservesasaresourcetoallteachersandstudents in South Carolina, offering comprehensive outreach programs designed to bring together artists, educators, community organizations, and schools.

The school is supported by its own foundation—The South Carolina Governor’s School for the Arts and Humanities Foundation—by raising revenues to bridge the gap between funds provided to the school through government appropriation and the actual cost of the educational opportunities the school provides to its students.

This extraordinary school recently captured the attention of Ovation TV, a cable and digital channel that is dedicated to the arts. Ovation and local cable provider Spectrum acknowledged the school’s contributions to the communityandinnovativeapproachtoartseducationandskillsdevelopment with a $10,000 award via its Stand for the Arts arts advocacy initiative. SC Governor’s School for the Arts and Humanities’ success provides a great lesson for communities across the country looking to support the arts and encourage the creative development of their youth.
