I used to visit and revisit it a dozen times a day, and stand in deep contemplation over my vegetable progeny with a love that nobody could share or conceive of who had never taken part in the process of creation. It was one of the most bewitching sights in the world to observe a hill of beans thrusting aside the soil, or a rose of early peas just peeping forth sufficiently to trace a line of delicate green.

~Nathaniel Hawthorne, Mosses from and Old Manse

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel

* On March 14, 1914, stock-car racer Lee Arnold Petty is born near Randleman, North Carolina. In 1959, he won the Daytona 500. Lee Petty never lost a race on account of being too kind to his competitors, even if they were family.

HOME IMPROVEMENT

The cost of home ownership can be considerable. One of the expenses that hits first-time homeowners the hardest upon moving into their new homes is the monthly energy bill. While utility bills for apartment dwellers rarely break the bank, those bills grow considerably when men and women are suddenly lighting, heating and cooling an entire house. Come winter, utility bills can be especially harsh on homeowners’ budgets. But there are some simple ways to trim utility bills no matter how low the mercury dips in the coming months.

WEDDING INVITATIONS

Created just for your big day, we've put together sets of stunning wedding invitations to perfectly match your style.

www.printingbypennylane.com ginad@pennylaneprinting.com

In adherence to traditional wedding wardrobes, brides wear white and veils to complete their ensembles. While many people may view veils as a symbol of purity and chastity, various sources indicate veils had a more prominent purpose. Cosmopolitan magazine indicates that veils first became popular in ancient Roman times, when brides were covered head-to-two in a red sheet called a flammeum. The sheet was intended to scare off any evil spirits that might ruin the wedding. Veils eventually replaced f the flammeum to disguise the bride from those naughty spirits. Veils also were used to hide brides’ faces from grooms in an era of arranged marriages when grooms had never seen their brides before their wedding days. Thankfully, today’s veils are more about fashion than function.

Whether you’re recently engaged, recently married, or are celebrating a milestone anniversary, let your community in on your good news.

VENT BRIGHTER

Small Town Shoutout

I wanted to give a small shout out to my small town that in the past few years has done many things for their residents and visitors. From updating/paving the park walkway to adding a disc golf course to new events to redoing a building to a small venue spot, the work hasn’t gone unnoticed by your residents. Kudos!

Wine Sales in Grocery Stores

The grocery stores don’t need to sell wine. They are already dominating the local revenue streams of our communities. Why jeopardize the small wine & liquor stores that help make up our local commercial sectors. It’s just greed on the part of the grocery chains. Write your legislators and say “no” to grocery store wine sales.

Breakfast on a Saturday Morning Brings Me Joy

Handicapped parking

After moving back to Webster 1 1/2 years ago from the Buffalo area, I resumed attending a restaurant in Webster to meet friends and acquaintances from 9:00AM to about 10:30AM to make garrulous conversation. The conversation is all over the place, and it is made up of people in their 70s to early 80s. The number of attendees can vary from 6–12 people. However, adding to this happy merriment is my engaging with a lovely 7 year disabled girl named Delilah. She is brought there by her mom who puts her in a high chair cause she can’t walk and can’t talk too well, but she understands. They sit in a booth about 10 feet down the aisle from our group. That sweet blonde haired little girl has stolen my heart and the others in my group. I wave to her and blow kisses from where I sit and call her name. She then exhibits a smile that enthralls my heart. For the past 3-4 weeks I have brought her candy and dolls. Her mom brings her to our table to interact. Yes, Delilah and friends bring joy to me to start the weekend.

AGAIN, this must be addressed! Monday, a red SUV sped up and quickly pulled in front of me, cutting me off. Then they pulled in the [Department store] (same one as me) and sat in the vehicle for 5 minutes before getting out. My point? In such a hurry to cut me off then sat 5 minutes before getting out. He had parked in a handicapped spot, literally jumped out, bent over, pulled a young child out of a car seat, carried the toddler and briskly walked into the store. PHYSICIANS!! Please do a better job of passing out tags! Seriously, the abuse must stop! This man’s strength did not warrant that close spot by any means. His walking was fantastic. If disabled mentally? Seizures?…he had a young child with him while driving. The excuses must stop, these people know they are abusing this! There must be more spots for the true ambulatory disabled.

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Leveling Up: Walking with multiple dogs

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I walk my neighbors’ dogs every day a er school. It takes time because I have to walk one dog at a time, then go to the next house, and then the third one. I’d like to make this job a little more efficient by walking all three dogs at the same time. What’s the best way to do this? -- Colin R., Smyrna, Georgia

DEAR COLIN: I can see your dilemma! Walking three dogs separately takes at least one hour, probably two, when you add in the time spent accessing each home, leashing up the dogs and unleashing.

It is possible to walk all three dogs at once, but you have to do two important things first: One, get permission from each neighbor to walk the dogs together, and two, make sure the dogs will get along before you commit.

You may be able to only walk two of them together and the third one alone. And if the neighbors don’t agree, then you’re stuck walking all three separately.

If you do get permission to walk them together, do it on a trial basis. Here are a few tips from professional dog walkers:

• Don’t use retractable leashes when walking multiple dogs. You need full control at all times.

• Leashes can easily get tangled; hold two in one hand and one in the other, or buy a 3-way leash coupler to minimize tangles.

•If one or more dogs gets aggressive or bullying, walk them separately to prevent the problem from getting worse.

•Avoid walking them in areas where a lot of other dogs are present. If all three bolt toward another dog, you may not be able to hang on to them.

TIPS FOR TAKING STUNNING NATURE PHOTOS

Zoom in and crop subjects. Smaller pictures can be just as compelling as larger ones. Zoom in on the bark on a tree, the skin of a lizard or the wings of an insect. Closer looks at what is hiding in plain sight in nature can lead to compelling pictures. Zoom in and think about a macro lens, which will magnify even the tiniest details.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

By Lucie Winborne

* The human brain would be able to perform 38 quadrillion (38 thousand trillion) operations per second if it were a computer.

* Pope Francis was once a nightclub bouncer in his native Argentina.

* “Psycho” was the first movie to show a toilet flushing.

* As part of standard convention, pilots and co-pilots do not eat the same food before a flight in case of food poisoning (or worse). If one of the pilots is incapacitated (in other words, unable to leave the bathroom), the other pilot can take over.

Here’s a Tip

* Use a muffin pan to make cookie cups for ice cream or fruit. Just flip your muffin pan over, and press dough over the upturned wells. It will puff up a little, but once it settles, they make very nice bowls. I do this with pizza dough as well. Prebake for a few minutes to form the bowl, then fill with ingredients and complete baking.

* If you can put a tension rod in the cabinet under your sink, you can use it to hang spray bottles for extra storage. It’s amazing how much space clears up, and it’s easy to find the bottle you need.

* Travel a lot? Make use of those shower caps by pairing up shoes and using the shower cap to hold them together while simultaneously protecting your clothes from the shoe bottoms. Smart!

In the weeks leading up to Easter, practicing Christians commonly commit to a period of fasting and abstinence known as Lent. This commitment commemorates Christ’s 40-day journey into the desert, and the sacrifices modern day Christians make are meant to replicate those made by Christ duringthatperiod.ManyChristians abstain from alcohol during Lent, but those who do may not realize that beer played a significant role in helping a small community of 17th century monks survive the Lentenfastingseason.Monksfrom the Order of St. Francis of Paola, often referred to as “Paulaner monks,” fasted from all solid foods throughout the season of Lent during the 1600s. According to the Paulaner Brewery, the monks, originally from southern Italy, relocated to Bavaria, once an independent country but now a southern state in Germany, in the 1600s. Their strict religious orders forbade the monks from consuming solid food during Lent, but they still needed nutrients to sustain them. So the monks concocted a strong brew loaded with carbohydrates and nutrients. The monks must have liked the beer, as they continued to brew it and even began selling it in their community. An early doppelbock, the beer was one of the first offerings from the Paulaner Brewery, which opened its doors in1634andremainsopentoday.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Treatment Given for Dry Eyes Fails to Improve Condition

DEAR DR. ROACH: I developed chronic dry eyes after having cataract surgery on both eyes. I consulted an ophthalmologist who specialized in treating dry eyes. She prescribed Restasis, but my condition didn’t improve after three months of use. She then switched me to Xiidra and instructed me to use it for two more refills, which lasted for nine months.

At the end of my conversation with the dry eye specialist, she said that she had done everything she could for me. I inquired about the Miebo drug that was recently approved or the LipiFlow procedure. She mumbled something, then said “goodbye” and “good luck.” Was she openly admitting her incompetence?

-- K.J.W.

ANSWER: It’s hard for me to believe that a dry eye specialist wouldn’t know about the new treatments available in their area of expertise, and I can only guess that there was some kind of miscommunication. As a generalist, I have to know at least a little bit about a whole lot of conditions, rather than a specialist who knows a whole lot about just a few conditions.

For most people with dry eyes, starting with artificial tears is usual and effective, but I certainly have had patients use artificial tears many times daily and still have unpleasant symptoms. I also recommend trying to avoid dry areas, especially with high airflow.

Most people with dry eyes have blockages in the meibomian glands, which secrete an oily substance that helps prevent the eye fluid from drying. It also forces the lacrimal glands to make more tears. (This leads to the paradox of people having red, watery eyes when they really have dry eye disease.) Trying to unblock the meibomian glands with baby shampoo and warm water is another treatment generalists like me often try. But when these therapies aren’t working, an ophthalmologist is essential. An ophthalmologist can do an exam to be sure if the meibomian glands are blocked. Among the treatments they have available are the ones you tried: cyclosporine (Restasis), which works well for a minority of people; lifitegrast (Xiidra), which decreases inflammation; varenicline (Tyrvaya), which increases tear production; and Miebo (perfluorohexyloctane), which works by reducing evaporation.

If the problem really is the blocked glands, doctors can also consider more powerful treatments to unblock them. One of these, Lipiflow, is a heat-based treatment. My colleagues in ophthalmology, to whom I refer, tell me that this is often successful, although the process may need to be repeated -- sometimes every six months and sometimes longer. Ophthalmologists can also place plugs to reduce the loss of tears through drainage.

UNDERSTANDING CATARACTS

Cataract diagnosis and treatment: An eye doctor will examine dilated eyes to diagnose cataracts. A slit-lamp microscope can make it easier to spot abnormalities, states the AOA.

The eye professional will consider age and the severity of cataracts to determine a treatment strategy. Early loss of vision due to cataracts may be mitigated by stronger lighting or a change in eyeglasses or contact lens prescription.

Johns Hopkins says cataract surgery is one of the most common eye surgeries. It is safe and effective. An ophthalmologist will remove the cloudy lens and replace it with an artificial, clear lens. If cataracts are present in both eyes, each surgery will be performed separately.A possible complication of cataract surgery is when a part of the natural lens that is not taken out during surgery becomes cloudy and blurs eyesight. This can be remedied with a laser treatment.

Comedy, Community, and Connection: Kevin Markman Helps Lighten Life in Rochester and Beyond

BY SUZIE WELLS

Meet Kevin Markman, a multitalented individual whose journey intertwines social work, art therapy, educational administration, and the captivating world of comedy.

Markman’sstorybeginsinRochester,wherehespenthisformative years before embarking on educational pursuits that would shape his eclectic career. With master’s degrees in social work, art therapy, and educational administration, Markman dedicated half his career to community non-profits and the other half to school counseling and administration. He supervised the art therapy department at the Hochstein School of Music for a decade, and has had a private practice counseling individuals, families, and couples for 25 years now.

He says two of his children “put the Aww in autism,” and his partner’s three children are adorable as well. He says, “I love art, photography, social media, droning, and travel. I currently have almost two million views…on Google Maps.” Markman’s favorite comedians include Patrice O’Neal, Daniel Sloss, Sarah Silverman, Joel James, Mark Normand, Yolanda Smilez, and Talent.

Markman says he came late to comedy in his 40s, when he happened upon Rochester’s comedy community, taking classes at Writers & Books over and over until he was ready to go to a stage outside class.

en, “It took many more years to get funny,” he says.

What drew Markman to comedy was more than justthepursuitoflaughter; it was a quest to find his community. Comedy powerfully brings people together, upli s spirits, and helps “make the world just a little bit better.” He adds, “ ere is nothing better than when a crowd laughs together.”

Markman performs at awidearrayoflocalvenues and hosts open mics at Writers & Books, Boulder Coffee, and OTR Woodfire Tavern “that provide comics an opportunity to get better and crowds regular places [to] get their laughter.” He produced and performed in some of the most sold shows for the Rochester Fringe Fest with Stand Up for Drag. He’s proud to have been nominated for best male comedian at the ROC awards. And he is proud to have helped raise $20k for the Golisano Autism Center in a comedy show last year (and looks forward to the sequel this year). Markman has also performed in Hawaii, Arizona, Florida, New York City, and beyond.

Collaborating with It’s Just Comedy, the Basement, JokeZoom, and non-profits, Markman looks forward to his tenth year of comedy and to hopefully “keep getting funnier, as self-awareness is essential for comedians, and I know where I stand so that next I can be funny

enough to headline small shows, feature bigger ones, and continue to host anywhere.”

For Markman, the essence of successful comedy lies in hard work, camaraderie, and a relentless pursuit of laughter. He says comedians must keep the mindset that “We are all better if we support each other.” Cra ing impeccable lineups, protecting audience sanctity, and navigating unexpected setbacks with finesse are all part of a comedian’s repertoire.

Markman emphasizes the importance of nurturing supportive communities, both on and off stage, and staying true to your comedic voice. His advice to aspiring comedians resonates with authenticity: find your voice, embrace the joy of performance, and above all, be funny. “If you’re not having a great time, neither will the audience.”

Producing shows for the past nine years has been educational, Markman says. Beyond the necessary humor, he insists comics be friendly to the other comics, the audience, the venue, and the host. Besides that, he seeks a variety of comics for his shows, so there is something for everyone, “the comics are happy, the venue is happy, and the audience is happy.”

Looking ahead, Markman envisions a future filled with laughter, community, and boundless creativity. Whether through therapy or comedy, online communities or global stages, his goal remains steadfast—to spread joy, to connect hearts, and to leave a lasting impact on the world, one laugh at a time.

In the colorful mosaic of Rochester’s comedy scene, Kevin Markman stands as a beacon of laughter, a testament to the transformative power of humor, and a reminder that amidst life’s trials, there’s always room for laughter, love, and connection.

LEAVING A JOB GRACEFULLY

Pack on your own time. Cause as little disruption as possible by packing belongingsbeforeorafterofficehours.Respecttheworkingenvironment, recognizing that your coworkers still need to get their jobs done.

Walk away. The APA notes that taking a break from a stressor is one of a handful of healthy techniques that research has indicated is a successful way to reduce stress, both in the short- and long-term. If a project at work is proving especially stressful, step away for a short period of time to do something else, whether it’s to go for a brief walk or converse with a coworker about something unrelated to the project. Avoiding the stress entirely, especially if it’s a work project or a bill that must be paid, is not the answer. But a short break from the stressor and thinking about it can provide a new perspective and time to calm down.

EFFICIENCY AT WORK

People with multiple hobbies recognize there are many great ways to spend one’s time. But even people with plenty of ways to pass their time may find themselves wasting time each day, a phenomenon that seems to be growing.

To apply, scan the QR Code or visit workforH.com, search by location: Medina, NY or in-person at 3959 Bates Rd., Medina, NY 14103 Feel free to call us at (585) 798- 6000 and ask for Justin!

In its 2014 “Wasting Time at Work” survey, Salary.com found that 89 percent of participants acknowledged wasting time at work each day. That marked a sharp increase from a year prior, when 69 percent of workers surveyed reported wasting time at work. Thirty-one percent of workers surveyed admitted wasting roughly 30 minutes per day, while another 31 percent estimated they waste around one hour each day. Perhaps the most surprising finding from the survey was that 4 percent of participants admitted they waste four or more hours, or at least half a typically eight-hour workday, at work each day.

Some people might be wasting time out of sheer boredom, but many may be able to trace all those squandered minutes and hours to inefficiency.
