Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual
Correcting Sickness Has anyone else made the observation that while we may be living longer it doesn’t appear that means we are living those years healthier? No, in fact, as I stated in our last article, it appears we are just taking longer to die. I understand this sounds morbid, yet it is hard to refute. You would think that with all the drugs Americans are prescribed, we would be a healthy lot. We aren’t. If we were, then why would we need another new drug? Shouldn’t there be a point where these wonder drugs fix the problem? How often do we hear that the newest drug on the horizon is going to “be the one” that changes everything? It doesn’t. Putting sudden illness that needs medical intervention aside, we need to be determined to maintain our own bodies free of drugs or surgeries. Isn’t that a revolutionary concept! For the majority of illnesses and ailments that commonly afflict us, please know that they truly aren’t caused by bad genes, bad germs or bad luck. It’s generally caused by bad habits. Some habits subtly hurt the body slowly over a long period of time, such as drinking soda daily. A few cans or bottles per day, and within a few years you will in all probability develop diabetes. Other habits, such as smoking, drinking, drugging, and the like have a predetermined path to sickness also. Some get cancer. Some COPD. Others, fatty liver or cirrhosis. We all understand about the heroin epidemic and the lives it is taking at a dramatic and increasing rate within the Lehigh Valley and across our nation. There are other neglectful habits that we fall prey to such as never leaving the chair to, exercise, that only speeds up the sickness evolution. Yes, poor habits lead to a poor, drawn-out end to our lives. So, what poor habits have you fallen into that you know deep down in your gut, that it is just not the right thing to keep doing? Act like an adult and face it before it’s too late already. I have worked through a bunch of mine, and still do, and I can tell you I am better off for it. It is a daily process. It’s a decision. Truth be told, giving up habits are not easy. Far from it. We all know this. It takes resolve. Oftentimes, it comes down to you personally being sick and tired of being bullied around by a poor habit. You only get so many years on this earth, so if you want to treat yourself poorly, it is your right I guess. I believe you’re worth more than that and because I do, I will keep preaching from my pulpit for those few who are willing to listen. Know that until you are dead, you can still correct poor habits. You, yourself get to choose what you eat, drink, say and do. you get a choice! Choosing not

Closing Day Celebration
to do what you know is right is a poor decision. Choosing bad habits day after day, year after year is just an awful path to travel. Stop it. We know where it leads. The wrong road leads to a slow and steady decline of the glands, organs and tissues of the body. Leads to poor mental function. Emotional and cognitive changes. Obesity. Loss of ability to freely move your arms and legs as you would like to. The list goes on and on. Bad habits steal your future. Our bodies are endowed with a God breathed innate intelligence that controls and coordinates every cell, every second of every day, from the moment of our conception. It’s your choice to work with this natural and beautiful way of things, or against it. Choose wisely. “Natural Perspectives” is a health commentary only and does not claim to diagnose and/ or make treatment recommendations. Always seek the advice of your health care professional.

Grow UR Biz RISK….so many clients are scared out of their wits of taking a risk. Why? Because they believe failure is the worse feeling in the world? Or perhaps, because it will cost them money. Money and Failure- is that just a perception or is it real? I love to follow successful entrepreneurs. Generally, when I have time to read, I go right to Fortune, Entrepreneur or Inc. publications but today I tuned into MSNBC -Your Business. Kat Cole, the CEO of Cinnabon, and former Hooters waitress, was the guest. What a fascinating interview! I listened, learned and decided to share with you some of her ideas. She was, by far, a risk taker… First, she gives her mom a lot of the credit for her success. “I had a great MOM! She never gave up, always positive, and so supportive. She figured things out and always did everything with humor, as bad as it got. We lived on a food budget of $10 per week at one time, and I learned to live on Spam and like it.” (Shout out to all the mom’s out there) She knows what it feels like to be poor and to struggle. But her claim to fame is that she worked her butt off and positioned herself unknowingly, as the person who could do every single job at Cinnabon. Her first big promotion was that she would open Cinnabons all over the world. She believes that successful leaders need to be….
Authentic Honest Confident She goes on to say that the ability to discern one crazy idea from another is one of her strong points. Crazy ideas and risk…. the crazier, the riskier. She then states that women, many times, hold themselves back because they spend too much time look-

The Good Old Days
Do mothers still wear aprons? I remember my mother always wore an apron to protect her pretty housedress. In the pocket, she carried a clean hanky, a few clothespins and a piece of gum. She used her apron to gather up apples and tomatoes at harvest time. She used her apron to wipe the sweat from her brow while working in the garden or to dry her hands after doing a chore. Things sure have changed. Remember when every woman wore a hat to church? It was almost like one of the Commandments. I was raised to honor the unwritten rules of etiquette: 1. Never wear white shoes before Memorial Day or after Labor Day. 2. Never enter a place of worship without a head covering. 3. Never leave the house without making the beds and washing the dishes. 4. Never watch TV in the daytime. Daytime was for chores. 5. Never go out of the house with rollers in your hair and never, ever let your husband/boyfriend see you in hair rollers. 6. Never wear socks with high heels.
7. Never wear torn jeans in public. 8. Never lay a hat on the bedbad luck. 9. Never eat dessert before eating the main course. 10. Never wear stripes and prints together. 11. Never chew gum in school or church. 12. Never eat with your fingers. 13. Always carry a clean hanky in your pocket. 14. Always wear clean underwear when going out. 15. Always finish all the food on your plate- children are starving in Asia. There are many more never’s than always’.
Northampton Regional Emergency Medical Services receives Award Submitted by ERIC WESCOE Northampton Regional EMS has received the American Heart Association’s Mission: Lifeline® EMS Gold Award for implementing quality improvement measures for the treatment of patients who experience severe heart attacks. Every year, more than 250,000 people experience an ST elevation myocardial infarction the most deadly type of heart attack caused by a blockage of blood flow to the heart that requires
timely treatment. To prevent death, it’s critical to restore blood flow as quickly as possible, either by mechanically opening the blocked vessel or by providing clot-busting medication. Unfortunately, a significant number of STEMI patients don't receive this prompt reperfusion therapy, which is critical in restoring blood flow. Mission: Lifeline® seeks to save lives by closing the gaps that separate these patients from timely access to appropriate treatments. Lifeline®’s EMS recognition program recognizes emergency medical services for their efforts in improving systems of care and improving the quality of life for these patients. Emergency Medical System providers are vital to the success of Mission: Lifeline®. EMS agencies perform 12-lead ECGs which measure the electrical activity of the heart and can help determine if a heart attack has occurred. They also follow protocols derived from American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology guidelines. These correct tools, training, and practices allow EMS providers to rapidly identify suspected heart attack patients, promptly notify the medical center, and trigger an early response from the awaiting hospital personnel. Agencies that receive the Lifeline® Gold award have demonstrated at least 75 percent compliance for each required achievement measure for two years. “EMTs and paramedics play a vital part in the system of
care for those who have heart attacks,” said James Jollis, M.D., Chair of the Lifeline® Advisory Working Group. “Since they often are the first medical point of contact, they can shave precious minutes of life-saving treatment time by activating the emergency response system that alerts hospitals. We applaud Northampton Regional EMS for achieving this award that shows it meets evidence-based guidelines in the treatment of people who have severe heart attacks.” “Northampton Regional EMS is dedicated to making our service among the best in the country, and the American Heart Association’s Lifeline® program is helping us accomplish that by implementing processes for improving systems of care with the goal of improving the quality of care for all acute coronary syndrome patients,” said Maria Wescoe, Director of Operations. “We are pleased to be recognized for our dedication and achievements in emergency medical care for all cardiac patients.”

We needed the rain and we’re getting our share of it this week. Most all of the outdoors events are over, so we’ll take the rain. . . .For days and days, the historic presidential television event of the two candidates has been the discussion on TV. It was a hot one on Monday night. After all four debates, we should know who is the favorite of the people. All I know is, may the best person win and get this country back on a track of peace and better employment. . . . . How did you like the Eagles – Steelers football game on Monday? It was almost a shock to see Philadelphia win – and by such a wide margin. Eagles fans celebrated big time! . . . .One more stretch of blacktop over on Airport Road. It covers a stretch over the bridge where there were big openings on top of the concrete. Just a few more

feet and it will cover all of the bald spots. At least they’re making some progress . . . .The Mets and Phillies played a tough series, with the Mets taking three of four games. . . . But the Mets and Florida Marlins suffered together on Monday, a day after the tragic boating accident in which the Marlins’ star pitcher Jose Fernandez was killed. Tears were in the eyes of players on both teams, and they hugged each other before starting the game. For Dee Gordon, he hit his first home run right off the bat! Fernandez must have been looking down from heaven. All the Marlins players

wore the number 16 and Fernandez’s name on their uniforms. His death must have inspired them to get hit after hit over the Mets’ Colon and they scored five runs in the first inning. . . .It wasn’t the only death in sports. Golfing’s icon Arnold Palmer died of natural causes on Sunday. He lived in Latrobe, Pa., a great golfer from our state. Deaths hit home when players that are well known pass away. . . .Keep your bumbershoots handy all this week for all the rain we’re getting. And keep safe.

Borough Officials Praise Spuds and Suds Festival submitted by KERI LINDENMUTH Elected and appointed borough officials, Chamber of Commerce members, and area vendors gathered at the Bath Municipal Building on Wednesday, September 21, to discuss August’s very successful Spuds and Suds Festival. “It was wonderful,” Mayor Fiorella Reginelli-Mirabito said of the event. “[There were] lots of positive comments.” The event, co-sponsored by the Greater Bath Area of the Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce, was the first of its kind in the borough. Thousands visited to take in the music, browse the vendors’ displays, enjoy beer and wine, and indulge in all kinds of foods, including a va-
riety of potato dishes. Despite it only being the festival’s inaugural year, praise was high for the event’s organization, entertainment, and ability to shine a light on local farms and businesses. Mayor Reginelli-Mirabito praised the Chamber of Commerce. “All of the members of the chamber dedicated their time,” she said. A team of community volunteers also dedicated their time to help the event run smoothly. In addition to aiding the many vendors that lined W. Northampton and Chestnut Streets, the volunteers assisted with the event’s set up in the morning and with its clean up at night. By the evening, the

borough streets were already back in order. Bobby Siegfried, who planned the event’s entertainment, was also very pleased with how the festival turned out. “Everything ran better than [I] could [have] expected,” he said. “The entertainment,” he continued, “offered a variety that fit the town.” However, it was not just the citizens of Bath who enjoyed the festival and all it had to offer. People travelled to Bath from Allentown, Wilkes-Barre, Lancaster, and even from towns in New Jersey.
smoothly, it could have been celebrating its tenth year, not its first. “Thanks everyone for your efforts,” Greater Bath Area Chamber President Terry DeGroot said to the room of vendors, volunteers, and officials. “You guys made it great.”

An active social media presence also marketed the event. Photos and videos of the unique festivities, such as the potato derby, received hundreds of views. The vast success of this year’s event has prompted its organizers and borough officials to already begin planning for next year’s Spuds and Suds Festival. However, organizers agree that some improvements will have to be made, including vendor requirements, handicap accessibility, seating availability, and, especially, traffic control. Traffic seemed to be the only major issue event organizers faced throughout the day. Despite a permit for 32 traffic signs forewarning drivers of the festival and road closures that may be associated with it, no signs were placed by the company the borough hired to control traffic. “Traffic had no advanced warning,” explained Borough Manager Bradford Flynn. This led to frustration on the part of some festival goers and unknowing drivers. Although traffic may have been a concern, everyone seemed pleased with the event’s overall organization. One performer at the event told volunteers that the festival ran so

premature wear on your tooth enamel, along with social stigmas such as lower self- esteem and lack of self-confidence. In many cases, children as well as adults have even been the targets of bullies because of their teeth. Bullying and oral health have become a universal problem. In recent studies by the American Association of Orthodontists, teeth were the number one physical feature that can lead to a child’s chance of being bullied whether it was protruding teeth, missing teeth, spaces between teeth or the shape and color of teeth. Not all children have perfect, straight teeth and bullies can certainly damage
the self -esteem of those children by ridiculing their appearance. A great smile helps you feel better and be more confident. It can really change how people see you and how you see yourself. Everyone wants a great smile and your orthodontist is a specialist in making your smile the best it can be. The AAO recommends that children have an evaluation by an orthodontist by age seven to determine if an orthodontic treatment is needed. Not all children with poor dental or facial appearance are candidates for that “early” orthodontic treatment, but that is something for your orthodontist and family dentist to discuss. Adults can also have orthodontic treatment at any age, providing that their periodontal health is good.
National Orthodontic Health Month was created to raise awareness of orthodontic treatment and the importance of good oral health. For additional information or help in finding an orthodontist, please go to www.braces. org.
Opinion Ted Cruz abandons principles for party politics by JUSTIN SWEITZER As Sen. Ted Cruz stood in front of the Republican National Convention and asked Republican voters to “vote their conscience” in November, Cruz impressed many on both sides of the political spectrum, showing that he was one of the few politicians in the United States who valued his own principles over partisan successes. He stood by his constitutional
conservative principles as he refused to endorse Donald Trump, even though the move earned him a negative reaction from a crowd which highly favored the GOP nominee. “We deserve leaders who stand for principle. Who unite us all behind shared values. Who cast aside anger for love. That is the standard we should expect, from everybody,” Cruz said. “And to those listening, please, don’t stay home in November. If you love our country, and love your children as much as I know that you do, stand, and speak, and vote your conscience, vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the Constitution.” It reinforced one truth about Ted Cruz that was evident re-
gardless of political beliefs: Cruz is someone who stands firmly behind his values; values guided by faith and the Constitution, that have long made him a polarizing but successful figure within the Republican Party. Cruz had more of an incentive not to stand behind the RepubContinued on page 12

Rites and Rituals
Every religion in the world has rites and rituals, from the idol worshiper in the third world to modern Western faiths. The question is: Do they profit us in knowing God and truly worshiping Him? Many trust in them for their eternal hope. How many will reply when asked, “Are you a Christian?” “Oh yes! I was baptized, confirmed, passed my catechism,” and go on and on naming rites they have followed. Jesus told the woman at Jacob’s well in John 4, “But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him” (John 4:23). We must know God in our spirit (heart) and worship Him in the light of His revealed truth, the Bible! True faith in God is a matter of your heart being right with Him, not in the following of some prescribed procedure. Isaiah warned his generation, “Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:” (Isaiah 29:13). Rites, ceremonies, and rituals benefit us nothing regarding a right relationship with God. You must experience His mercy and grace in your own heart and life! “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:10). Confess that you are a sinner, repent wholeheartedly, believe in Jesus Christ as the only means of salvation and you will be saved! Then, in obedience, be baptized and commemorate His death in partaking of the communion bread and cup. But remember, that can NEVER save you! –Submitted by Carl Edwards

Ted Cruz
Continued from page 9
lican nominee than any other candidate in the GOP primaries. Many of Trump’s proposed policies are believed to be in violation of constitutional law, a document which Cruz reveres as the guiding doctrine of the country. Trump’s call for a ban on muslim entry into the United States is in direct violation of the 14th Amendment, which provides all American citizens with “equal protection.” Under such a policy, Trump said he would prevent muslim U.S. citizens from reentering the country, which would infringe upon their constitutional rights granted by the 14th amendment. Trump has also expressed the urge to change libel laws in the U.S., which are crucial to maintaining free press in a democratic society. Any amendment taking away certain freedoms of the press could result in the inability to check governmental power, which in turn could destabilize a functioning democracy. And not only does Trump differ from Cruz on crucial policy positions, but Trump had the audacity to turn the fight against Cruz’s own family, insulting his wife Heidi and stirring up controversy surrounding Cruz’s father. The battle got personal when Trump shared an unflattering picture of Heidi Cruz on social media, and shared a National Enquirer picture of what was allegedly Cruz’s father with Lee Harvey Oswald. Trump never directly said Cruz’s father was involved with the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, but the GOP nominee did not deny the potential involvement of Ra-

fael Cruz, instead letting the conspiracy theory grow among his supporters. But despite the bad blood between the two Republican rivals, which even resulted in Cruz calling Trump a “narcissist” and a “pathological liar,” Cruz has seemingly since had a change of heart, endorsing the “pathological liar” who stooped so low as to insult multiple members of the Cruz family. In a post to supporters on his Facebook page, Cruz said, “Our country is in crisis. Hillary Clinton is manifestly unfit to be president, and her policies would harm millions of Americans. And Donald Trump is the only thing standing in her way. A year ago, I pledged to endorse the Republican nominee, and I am honoring that commitment. And if you don’t want to see a Hillary Clinton presidency, I encourage you to vote for him.” While not a gleaming endorsement of the Republican nominee, Cruz has decided that it is more important to side with flow of his own party than defend his own principles. How a man with beliefs so at odds with those of Trump has now come to support his primary rival is simple -- Cruz traded in his reputation as one of the few principled politicians to be another cog in the Republican machine. A man who once urged voters to their conscience instead now pleads the case for a nominee who could endanger the very principles Cruz holds dear. Party over principle is a common theme in Washington, and Ted Cruz just became the latest victim to succumb to its power.

My favorite season has finally arrived, and with it comes all things pumpkin and apple! This recipe was perfect to kick off autumn and welcome the chilly weather. I didn’t use Granny Smith apples; I used a type of red apple from Emerald Cider Mill, and only had four. I also added a little bit of onion powder too. While the flavor came out nice

and it smelled good, it was still missing something and I was wishing I could punch up the flavor a little bit more. I’m not really a fan of pork chops at all, so I was actually looking forward to eating this meal and it was a nice change from drab, plain pork chops. Give this recipe a try. If you find something missing too and have any suggestions, I’d love to hear them! Email me at cstroh@idpcreative.com.
