ENJOYING THRILLS AT AMUSEMENT PARKS

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.

EXPLORE THESE BUDGET-FRIENDLY DESTINATIONS

St. Augustine, Florida. Theme parks may be a big part of Florida’s tourist draw, but such parks can be expensive for families. Looking elsewhere in Florida for dream destinations that are easier on the pocketbook doesn’t take a lot of work. St. Augustine in Northern Florida is America’s oldest city and is packed with historical monuments, quaint shops and great dining. The city also sits a mere five miles northwest of St. Augustine Beach, which offers miles of shoreline to explore.

We would love to help you!

DID YOU KNOW?

Though office work might not be the first profession individuals think of in relation to elevating one’s cancer risk, sitting at a desk for most of the day can increase a person’s risk for cancer. According to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, sitting for most of the day without engaging in physical activity puts individuals at increased risk for cancer. How much extra risk does that entail? Though no two individuals are the same, studies have equated sitting for eight hours a day without any physical activity to the risk posed by obesity and smoking. The DFCI notes that sitting over long periods of time has been known to cause increased blood pressure, high cholesterol and excess body fat around the waist, each of which have been identified as factors that increase a person’s risk for cancer.

PAW’S CORNER

Cat reacts to Thunderstorms Poorly

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Yesterday, we had a pretty big thunderstorm roll through. My 8-year-old cat, Sphinx, is normally never afraid of anything. But for the rst time, he hid underneath the sofa, and even a er the storm passed he stayed underneath the co ee table and wouldn’t come out. Why would he suddenly be afraid when he wasn’t before? -- Claire

DEAR CLAIRE: A sudden change in behavior may warrant a trip to the veterinarian. is can rule out any physical causes for the change in behavior, such as a silent infection or a chronic condition.

Cats may seem aloof and resilient to us, but they are actually creatures of habit -- much more so than dogs, who thrive on applied structure, like walks at the same time each day. Cats develop their own daily routine: when they eat and drink, when they “patrol” the house, where they sleep at di erent times of the day.

Any change in that routine can be very upsetting to them, but most still won’t let you know it. (Some will -- they might turn their back on you, meow incessantly, or even, when deeply aggrieved, leave a special present right where you can nd it.)

Observe Sphinx as much as you can, and think about any changes to the home. Did you recently rearrange furniture or install new ooring? Did a family member leave or did a new person move in?

To reduce his anxiety, spend more time playing with Sphinx. When a storm rolls in, place one of your favorite old shirts next to him wherever he is hiding. Speak to him calmly during the storm. If his anxiety doesn’t improve, or begins to get worse, talk to his veterinarian about temporarily giving him anti-anxiety medication.

COMMON GRILLING MISTAKES

Playing with food: Grilling does not require much intervention. Repeatedly flipping and squeezing meat and poultry can cause flavorful juices to leak out. Then you’re left with dried-out food. Resist any urges to prod and poke food. And minimize how many times you lift the grill cover to take a peek, as that can cause temperatures to fluctuate. Use a thermometer to determine when food is done. And don’t forget that meat will still cook a bit after it’s taken off the grill.

A cool home might be the ultimate necessity during summer heat waves, but there’s no reason to cool a residence when no one is home. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, operating thermostats more efficiently can help homeowners trim their cooling costs by as much as 10 percent. One way to be more efficient with thermostats is to keep the house warmer than normal when no one is home. Programmable thermostats can be set so air conditioning units turn on shortly before residents arrive home, ensuring the house is comfortable and no energy is wasted. • Trimming • Take Downs • Stump Grinding • Lawn Installation & Repair I will beat any reasonable price - guaranteed! 30+ years’ experience Free Estimates • Fully Insured • Best Prices! 585-739-1707 20% OFF All Jobs! 75 FOOT BUCKET TRUCK TREE SERVICES ROOFING, SIDING, GUTTERS

TELLING SIGNS COMMON INSECTS ARE INFESTING A LAWN

Cutworms: The lawn care experts at Scotts® note that cutworms are moth larvae that hide in the thatch layer of a lawn during the day before emerging at night to feed on grass blades. Patches of brown grass between one and two inches in width is a sign of cutworm infestation. Homeowners who notice a growing number of birds pecking away in their lawns may have a cutworm infestation, which can be confirmed by peeling up a section of damaged grass and looking for cutworms, which are brown, gray or black and tend to be around two inches long.

Q&A

With our crazy spring weather, with several frosts, a drought followed by massive rainfall, should I worry about mygarden?

Does anyone remember a “normal” weather year? Not in recent history, it seems, but this year is a doozy! Looking back at the temperature swings we’ve had this year, January through April each had close to or more than half the month with highs at least 10 degrees above the average range. May went the other way, with half thenightsreachingtemperatures at least 10 degrees below average and, in W. Bloomfield where I live, three solid frosts that month. June’s temperatures seem to hover close to

average,which is a bit of a relief.

Looking at precipitation, again it has been all over the map. Generally speaking, though, we had very little snoworrainJanuarythroughthefirst week of June. Between Friday, 6/9 and Wednesday 6/14, we received over two inches of rain! Crazy, right?

As I told our Farm Manager, Mike Kincaid, we can always count on a gully-washer right as the peonies start to flower, but this has been an exceptional amount of rain in just a few days.

So,howdoesallof thesetemperature and precipitation swings affect our plants? For established plants you

should not need to worry. They have reserves of food to help them through stressful times. If we go back to very dry conditions, which we most likely will over the next couple of months, you may want to supplement watering plants with higher water needs, such as hydrangeas. With newly planted material, of course, you will want to be sure to add water as needed. We like to see the plants get about

an inch of water per week – a small investment in a rain gauge is money well spent to help you know how much water your plants have gotten. And remember, when we do get a gully-washer, most of that rain runs off before it can percolate into the soil. Sometimes the best measure of moisture is to stick your finger in the soil and judge by feel.

Local Bank Changes

Whose decision was it to close a downtown major bank’s ATM? This has been an ideal location for all bank customers, downtown shoppers, travelers, and especially for walkers - not everyone drives a car. Really, how much time and how much employee expense is there to maintain this convenient service? This bank also made a big mistake by closing their drive thru. It would have been an asset to provide a drive-thru service during the Covid outbreak. I will sincerely consider another bank’s services located downtown.

A Roller’s Rant To All The Walkers Out There

I had an accident a couple years back and I’m now paralyzed from the waist down. I have a modified truck and it requires me to park in a van accessible parking spot or a handicap spot with cross-hatched stripes. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to wait for someone to come out and move their vehicle. Why should I wait when it’s illegal to park there? You can walk, I can’t. Use your legs! Also [local business] repaved their parking lot, and the only van accessible parking spot is for the employee of the month! What’s up with that? So I made my own parking spot right in front where all the cross-hatched lines are. I’ve spoken with the head of security as well as the Vice President and they assured me they’d take care of it. That was over 4 months ago!

Union Army Sharpshooter

My previous article in the Penny Saver described the heroic career of Brockporter Milo Starks in the American Civil War. is one reports on the success of Brockporter John Tyler Farnham in recording what may be the most complete account of the life of a Union Army soldier.

Farnham lived on the corner of College and Utica Streets in Brockport. His father was a physician. At the time he enlisted in the 1st New York Sharpshooters out of Rochester in August 1862, John was a twenty-year-old printer employed by the weekly Brockport Republic.

Farnham wrote seven diaries during his military service. One is missing. I transcribed the surviving six and published them in a book, e Life of a Union Army Sharpshooter. ey covered 850 days of military service. Farnham wrote diary entries on 848 days. All entries are substantial. Also, the Brockport Republic published over y long letters by him from the front. I included them in the book when they did not duplicate his diary entries. He also wrote some 600 letters home that have not survived.

Farnham was frail and sickly. At times, he was so weak that o cers carried his ri e for him. Nevertheless, he was resourceful, gregarious, and popular. In his diaries, he names 108 friends in the service and 156 at home.

He subscribed to three newspapers and several magazines, attended 23 plays and six concerts, and read 22 books. He campaigned aggressively for Lincoln’s re-election in 1864, befriended a middle-aged couple of freed slaves, taught them to read, and helped build a school for them. Farnham met President Lincoln and was a near witness to his assassination.

In his diaries, Farnham records a wide variety of military experiences. He describes training, battles, skirmishes, long marches, and encampments. He was con ned in a hospital, organized a library for it, and cared for other patients. He clerked in the headquarters of the Iron Brigade and at the Adjutant General’s o ce in Washington. His diaries paint a detailed picture of the lives of ordinary soldiers, their food, living conditions, relations between o cers and enlisted men, their ordeals, triumphs, and tragedies.

Farnham was discharged in June 1865 and returned to Brockport and his occupation as a printer. He seems to have had a romantic relationship with Mary A. C. French, who lived at 82 Park Avenue. His diaries report that he wrote seventy letters to her. Apparently, that romance continued a er his discharge, but did not lead to marriage, perhaps because of his illness.

Farnham died of tuberculosis four years a er his discharge at the age of 27. All of his employers published highly laudatory obituaries. He is buried in the Morton Cemetery in the Town of Kendall beneath a beautiful mountain ash tree alongside his brother, Charles, who died of disease in the service. Mary French never married or had an occupation, though she lived until 1917.

INFLUENTIAL JAZZ MUSICIANS

Scott Joplin (c. 1868-1917): Born into a musical family that included his mother, a singer and banjo player, and his father, a violist, Scott Joplin grew up in Texarkana, learning to play the guitar and later the piano at a very young age. By the time Joplin was a teenager, he was working as a traveling musician and eventually becametheforemostcomposerof ragtime jazz. Biography.com notes that Joplin was a true student of music, studying at the George R. Smith College for Negroes in Missouri during the 1890s. Though one of history’s most celebrated jazz musicians, Joplin also composed ballets and operas.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

High Blood Pressure Readings Call for Additional Medication

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 68-year-old female who was diagnosed with high blood pressure at 32. I am 5 feet, 5 inches tall and weigh 130 pounds. I’ve been taking 240 mg of verapamil for all of these years. A few years back, my medication started coming in 120-mg dosages, so I started taking one in the morning and one at night. My blood pressure both at home and at the doctor’s office is often higher than I think it should be, averaging 138/88. Recently, I used a 24-hour blood pressure monitor, which showed that more than 50% of my daytime readings were above 140/90, while my nighttime readings averaged 118/82. I am still waiting to hear back from my doctor regarding the results of this test, but I wanted to get your thoughts. Should I be on some other type of medication? Should I alter the timing to get better daytime readings? -- E.T.

ANSWER: In my opinion, these readings are not ideal. Twenty-four-hour, ambulatory blood pressure readings are usually 5 to 10 points lower than office blood pressure readings, so your average daytime readings are correspondingly higher. There is strong evidence that in people at high risk for heart attack (such as those who are already known to have blockages), controlling blood pressure to an average of less than 120 systolic (the first or top number) and less than 70 diastolic (the second or bottom number) reduces risk. It’s not as clear for people who are at a lower risk, such as people who have high blood pressure without any additional risks. In my own practice, however, I will usually try to get my patients close to those optimal numbers, as long as the medication does not cause side effects. In a situation like yours, I would consider additional daytime medicine. More verapamil might be reasonable, but many doctors might use a different medication, such as a diuretic, in the morning to try to get the optimal blood pressure with less risk of side effects. Very often, the choice of blood pressure medication depends on any other medical issues a person may have. Only your doctor knows enough about your medical condition to make a personalized recommendation.

ASSISTIVE DEVICES HELP PEOPLE REMAIN MOBILE

Disabilities affect people from all walks of life. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that around 55 million Americans have a disability of some kind. Of these people, 33 million have a disability that makes it difficult for them to carry out some daily activities. Statistics Canada states that, as of 2012, 13.7 percent of the population age 15 years or older reported having a disability that could impact daily life.

People with disabilities may need assistive devices to reclaim some measure of their independence. For example, millions of people rely on wheelchairs or walking aids to get around. These are called assistive technology and rehabilitative devices, which include tools, equipment or products that can help people with disabilities get around more easily. These devices may be as small as magnifying glasses for reading to as large as wheelchairs.

The National Institutes of Health state that 2.2 million people in the U.S depend on wheelchairs for day-to-day tasks and mobility. More than six million use canes, walkers or crutches to assist with mobility. Assistive devices can be highly effective, but only when they are used properly and safely. Assistive devices should be measured for each user. Many walkers are height-adjustable. The width of a device also is important. A walker or another device that is too wide can affect mobility or require modifications to be made around the home. Weight is another consideration. The device should be lightweight so it can be maneuvered, but also weigh enough to provide enough stability to keep users upright. Users should proceed slowly and favor their stronger sides when relying on canes or walkers. Devices should not be used to climb atop other items like step stools. Children should not be allowed to play with or ride on assistive devices. If there are safety belts or locks on any assistive technology, they should be put in place before use to prevent further injury.
