L

ast week, you got a preview of the most commonly used basic applications that almost every phone comes with, nowadays.

This week, we learn a bit more about widgets.

A widget is a way to view more information from an application without actually having to open said application and waste usage of

Android widgets are more easily manipulated.

As long as there is space, they can be placed on any of the home screens, just like your app icons.

To access what widgets you have will depend on your version of Android software and the maker of the phone.

For the most part, just hold down on an empty space on the desktop.

If that doesn’t work, bring up your listing of apps, and there should be a widgets tab.

This will give you your listing of available widgets.

By Amy Anderson

Once you select the widget you want to use, hold down on the widget itself and you can move it to which ever screen/spot on screen that you want. Some widgets, once placed, will ask you to configure it so that it shows the correct information.

Apple widgets Apple widgets are located in one spot on the iPhone.

To see your widgets on a iPhone, swipe left until you hit the first home screen, then swipe left one more time.

This is the widget panel.

If you then scroll to the very bottom, there will be an edit button.

Once you click this, you can then edit all the widgets you have or want on your widget panel.

War for the Planet of the Apes (PG-13) — In the final

Lake Murray water levels are down to 354.63 and dropping (full pool is 360.00), and water temperatures are around the mid- to upper-70s.

Clarity has been good.

In striped bass news, Captain Brad Taylor (8033311354) reports that as temperatures rebounded fish moved back out to deeper water and pulled out of the creeks, and he has found the most fish 3050 feet down in about

50 feet of water at the mouth of creeks.

Down-lines have been the best way to target them. There has been some isolated schooling action

but it’s not like it was.

Crappie can also be found at the mouth of creeks, with the best numbers in the middle part of the lake where the fish are following the big schools of threadfin shad.

Fish can be caught 1215 feet down in about 1520 feet of water, with brush, docks, or most any cover in that depth range holding them.

Bass remain in a transition period, and overall, the bite has still been a little tough.

When temperatures cool a few more degrees fishing should get more predictable.

Good numbers can be caught throwing a buzzbait around the bank, but getting better fish has been a challenge.

The Emoji Movie (PG) —

What happens when the son of two "meh" emojis is able to express himself in multiple ways?

This glitch has to be run down, and along the way, we'll take a ride through a highly imaginative world of apps and games.

TJ Miller voices Gene, who goes to work as an emoji and causes a ruckus when his confused expression in a text message makes the phone owner seek tech support.

He goes on the run to find help from a hacker named Jailbreak (Anna Faris) while being chased by an internal goon squad of bots.

The kids will love the tech references (Candy Crush, Just Dance, etc.) while the adults can play the "who's voicing the cameo" guessing game (spoiler alert: Patrick Stewart is the Poop emoji).

At the end, the message is: "Don't let life put your personality in a box."

Personal Shopper (R) — In a beguiling contemporary ghost story, we follow the innocuous Maureen (Kristen Stewart), who spends her time ferrying couture and jewels from place to place as a personal shopper to a glamorous celebrity.

After the death of her twin brother from a congenital heart complication that she shares, she focuses on her talents as a medium to make contact, her process disturbed by a series of menacing text messages and concomitant tragedy.

By LeRyiah Arant Special to the Chronicle

Martin Arant started making walking and hiking sticks as a Lexington Medical Center volunteer.

It all started when a volunteer coordinator complained that her aluminum walking stick was ugly.

Martin assured her he would find the perfect limb to make her a personal walking stick.

It was his first attempt.

Many sticks later, he still enjoys making them.

He has made walking sticks for a Lutheran minister, St. Stephen’s Lutheran Church members, Lexington Medical Center nurses and volunteers, Tri-City Leisure Center seniors and other friends.

He has given hiking sticks to his dental hygienist at Palmetto Dental Associates and his church secretary.

He made a special light-weight, cherry wood stick for a friend who needed something more manageable.

All of them compliment Arant for his creations.

The sticks have become conversation pieces.

Arant grew up in West Columbia, Columbia and Lexington.

His parents, Ronald and Mildred Arant, taught him the value of hard work, to be kind, stand on the truth of the Bible and attend church regularly.

His wife Carolyn grew up in Columbia and moved to Lexington when they married Jan. 17, 1969.

Her parents, William and Beatrice Branham, taught her to be strong,

work hard and persevere.

Carolyn and Martin met on a blind date and have been married over 48 years.

They are members of St. Stephen’s Lutheran Church in Lexington. They have two children, Dana Bradley (husband Mark) and Russell Arant (wife LeRyiah) and three grandchildren: Noah Bradley, Ruby

and Navy Arant.

Martin Arant is retired from the Department of Health and Environmental Control.

He has volunteered at Lexington Medical Center for over 15 years. He also restores antique cross cut saws and has a passion for motorcycles.

His wife enjoys antiquing while traveling with him.

Thursday Morning

Quarterback For playoff-assured teams, positioning is key

By THOMAS GRANT JR. chroniclesports@yahoo.com

Week 9 Schedule All games start at 7:30 p.m.

The regular season in high school football ends Friday after 11 weeks.

Newly-crowned region champions Dutch Fork and Gilbert can partially focus on their home-friendly path through the Lower State.

The same is true for Northside Christian which will be a second-seed in the SCISA 8-man playoffs in its last year before moving up to Class 2A. For other playoff-assured teams, it’s all about positioning: Airport – Can place third in Region 4-4A with Midland Valley loss to South Aiken.

Friday Airport at Chapin Brookland-Cayce at Strom Thurmond Batesburg-Leesville at Calhoun County Dutch Fork at Irmo Pelion at Gilbert Gray Collegiate vs. C.A.

Batesburg-Leesville

– Can claim third place in Region 5-2A with win over Calhoun County or Silver Bluff loss to Barnwell Brookland-Cayce – Will finish second in Region 5-3A with win over Strom Thurmond.

Chapin – Can claim top seed out of Region 5-4A with Lower Richland loss to Orangeburg-Wilkinson.

If Chapin, Lower Richland and Dreher finish in 3-way tie, Chapin will be a No. 2 seed behind Lower Richland based on tiebreaker (points allowed).

Gray Collegiate – Can clinch a share of Region 3-2A title with win over C.A. Johnson and Saluda loss to Fox Creek. This would also create a 3-way tie for first place and a tiebreaker would determine the playoff seeding.

Irmo – Can finish fourth in Region 5-5A with win over Dutch Fork or White Knoll loss to Lexington.

Lexington – Clinches third place and a first-round home game with a win over White Knoll.

Pelion – Can force a 3-way tie with win over Gilbert, a Strom Thurmond loss to Brookland-Cayce and Swansea loss to Edisto.

Swansea – Can force a 3-way tie with a win over Edisto and Strom Thurmond win over Brookland-Cayce.

MNO cancer survivor model: Paula Taylor Paula Taylor has worked at Lexington Medical Center as a Registered Nurse for over 35 years.

On Tuesday, Oct. 17, she walked the runway as one of the breast cancer survivor models for LMC Foundation’s 2017 Women’s Night Out. Paula was diagnosed with breast cancer on October 21, 2011 even though she had no family history.

Ironically, that year Oct. 21 was National Mammography Day. Her treatment included 4 surgeries, chemo, and radiation.

When she was diagnosed, Paula leaned on her great support system, including three close friends who had also been through cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Her journey has taught her many things.

most toothpastes or used by dentists is considered controversial by some folks.

Some object to anything that is controlled by the government without their wishes (the fluoridation of the drinking water) while others point to studies that show that fluoride can be harmful to the general health of those who ingest it.

Certainly most of us would like less government intervention in our lives.

But the facts clearly show that including fluoride in the drinking water has decreased the rate of tooth decay by half or more.

Very few things so simple have made anywhere near this kind of positive impact in our lives.

Areas of the United States without fluoride (Believe it or not, some very large populations do not have fluoride in the water, like Portland, Oregon, San Diego, or Honolulu) have much higher decay rates than surrounding areas with fluoride.

Many of the studies that show harmful effects from ingesting fluoride are similar to the studies that show harmful effects from artificial sweeteners.

At very high levels, fluoride can be harmful. The majority of the time, it is not ingested at these levels.

From the comfort of your own bed How home sleep studies help patients rest well

Jennifer Wilson jawilson2@lexhealth.org

I

f you wake up a lot during the night or you feel exhausted during the day, you may have a sleep disorder.

Sleep studies can help your doctor determine if you have an underlying disorder that’s affecting how well you sleep.

Some people may need to have an overnight study in a sleep lab, but others can benefit from an at-home test.

To have a home sleep study, your primary care physician has to order one.

You can also schedule an appointment at Lexington Sleep Solutions for an initial evaluation.

During that evaluation, if you qualify for a sleep study, the doctor can order a home sleep test or a sleep study to be completed at the sleep lab.

“A home sleep test measures heart rate, oxygen levels, airflow and breathing effort,” said Sarkis S. Derderian, DO, FCCP, at Lexington Sleep Solutions. “A small microphone on the home sleep test measures the degree of snoring.”

Home tests are ideal for people who are at high risk for sleep apnea. These people are frequently tired during the day, snore, have

Sarkis S. Derderian, DO, FCCP,

morning headaches, experience unrefreshing sleep, have difficulty concentrating or experience memory loss.

Home sleep studies serve as a helpful tool to diagnose patients who are home bound, elderly or who require a caregiver.

But not all home sleep studies are created equally.

“Different types of devices measure different parameters. Some measure only two things, like oxygen and heart rate, while others measure four or more things, such as oxygen, heart rate, airflow and breathing effort,” said Dr. Derderian.

The biggest benefits of a home sleep test for patients are cost and convenience.

“Home tests are less expensive because they do not require ancillary support and equipment. You are able to pick up the equipment at your convenience and drop it off the next day without having to plan for an overnight stay,” he said.

You are also in the comfort of your own bed during a home test.

“Patients may feel a little hindered with a few extra wires, but most people do not have any trouble sleeping normally in their own beds. Sleeping normally will give the doctor the best picture of your sleep,” said Dr. Derderian.

At Lexington Sleep Solutions, a trained sleep technician shows you how to set

up the equipment and answers any questions when you pick up the study equipment.

When you return the next day, the sleep technician gathers your information for a board-certified sleep physician to interpret your results.

“If you do not have a high probability of sleep apnea, a home sleep test may not be beneficial to you,” said Dr. Derderian. “If you have certain medical conditions, such as congestive heart failure, lung disease or neuromuscular disease, your physician may recommend that you complete an in-lab study that provides a more complete evaluation of your sleep.”

L

ast month I talked about house soiling problems in cats.

One point I brought up is that sometimes arthritis issues in the aging kitty can contribute to this problem.

This month, I am going to talk about changes that occur as our kitty cats get older.

There are many changes that occur.

There are bodily changes, nutritional needs may be different, behavior may change and at some point you may be faced with end of life decisions.

As you see, it’s not just about treating your cat but also about helping you as your cat’s guardian and friend to help them age gracefully.

In cats as they age, the rate of decline can be highly variable between cats, just as in people.

Also, one year in your cat’s life may not always equal 7. One thing that does seem to remain consistent is your cat’s response to vaccinations.

The good news is the older cats still respond well to vaccination and keep their immunity.

Your cat may have a decreased white blood count with aging and could be more susceptible to infection.

The skin and coat will change as there is a decrease in collagen and elastin leading to a thinner, less elastic skin.

Blood flow will diminish to the skin and your cat may develop areas of focal hair loss. The nails become thicker and they are not shedding the caps as frequently.

Often, they’re not scratching as much on the scratching post leading to overgrown nails. They may need to have their nails clipped every 3-4 months.

They can sometimes have increased grooming that is related to pain or they may have decreased grooming related to pain and general feeling of lethargy.

There is an increased risk of cancer, as well.

The eyes may develop age related changes or even cataracts. The iris may atrophy so that their pupils don’t respond as well to changes in light. You may see pigmentary changes in the iris which could be normal or indicate cancer. Orange-colored cats will develop more freckles, but this is not a problem.

The incidence of kidney disease is up to 80% in cats greater than 15 years of age.

Ideally it is best to do blood work every 6 months in your aging cat. The earlier

we can pick up kidney disease, the more proactive we can be with treatment.

As your cat ages they tend to lose muscle mass and develop degenerative joint disease which is better known as arthritis.

Radiographs may not always show arthritic changes even when present.

They may be unwilling to jump or not able to jump as high as they once did. They may hesitate to jump or take the stairs one at a time. They may not want to climb into the litterbox and may or may not show any lameness.

Older cats are at an increased risk and severity

creased because of mouth pain, weakness, arthritis, and pain.

Your veterinarian can help to find and treat the disease or pain.

Other options to consider is to have your cat shaved, try different brushes, or use one of the dry shampoos.

Some cats will begin vocalizing or yowling more.

Causes of this behavior can include increased blood pressure (hypertension), an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism), pain, decreased vision or hearing, and cognitive dysfunction.

Cognitive dysfunction is often diagnosed when other causes of changes have been eliminated.

Pine Ridge Middle finishes perfect season in volleyball

By Terry Ward lexchront@yahoo.com

The Pine Ridge Middle School volleyball team is experiencing a season of excellence.

The Yellow Jackets finished their season 14-0, capping off the regular season with a win over Batesburg-Leesville on Oct. 10.

With that victory, PRMS entered the playoffs undefeated, and the team defeated Carolina Springs on Oct. 12 in the first round of the playoffs.

Brian Schaffer, a 7thgrade English teacher, is the head coach of the PRMS volleyball team.

“This is a good, hardworking, group of girls,” said Schaffer.

He said he believes the team is succeeding due to their dedication.

Schaffer also said the team members are always thinking volleyball and play “club ball” outside

of the school team to stay sharp.

“They always have a volleyball with them,” said Schaffer.

Lynn Bouknight, Pine Ridge’s athletics director, has watched the team develop all season. She said unity is a theme.

“They all get along. The level of teamwork is obvious,” said Bouknight.

“They communicate well and you see that when they play.”

Bouknight also said the players blend well. She said the team is a 50/50 mix of 7th- and 8th-graders.

With the success, Schaffer and Bouknight said there is excitement in the air around the team and it grows with each win.

“You can see it and feel it,” Bouknight said.

She added that members of the team are held in high-esteem due to their success.

Schaffer can’t help but be proud of the Yellow

The Wonders of Winter Squash

By Angela Shelf Medearis

I

used to look at the hard, oddly shaped exteriors of winter squash and pass them by, mainly because I had no idea what to do with them.

Then I discovered that winter squash are actually easy to prepare and are a healthy addition to any meal.

They're also a good source of vitamins A and C, potassium and fiber. Even better, one-half cup of cooked winter squash has only 40 calories.

Winter squash are picked when fully mature and the skin is thick.

This thick skin is inedible, and is designed to provide a protective covering for the squash.

It also allows for a long storage life in cool or cold weather.

Winter squash can be stored for three months or longer in a cool, dry place, preferably in a single layer.

Three of the most common winter squash are butternut, spaghetti and acorn squash.

Butternut squash is tan in color and has a long, belllike shape.

Spaghetti squash is oblong or oval in shape and yellow in color.

Acorn squash gets its name because it is shaped like an acorn. It is dark green in color and has a ridged rind or skin.

When shopping, look for squash that are heavy for their size, free of soft spots and have a dull sheen (a shiny skin is an indicator the squash is not fully mature).

With a few selection and preparation tips for preparing winter squash, you can create delicious and flavorful dishes all season long.

All types of winter squash can be baked in the same way, but not prepared the same.

All winter squash bake well. Cut the squash in two, scoop out the seeds and brush the cut surface with oil. (The hard shell of the squash can be difficult to cut in two, so be sure to have a sharp, heavy-duty knife.)

Place the cut side down in a baking dish with 1/4 cup of water. Bake uncovered at 350 F until the flesh is soft.

Spaghetti squash isn't used in recipes in the same way as other winter squash.

It was given that name because of its spaghetti-like interior.

Once cooked, use a fork to peel the flesh away from the skin to form long strands like spaghetti.

You can serve it with any type of pasta sauce, in the same way you would serve spaghetti noodles.

Butternut or acorn squash can be used interchangeably in recipes.

Once cooked and cooled, they can be scooped out and stuffed, or peeled away from the skin, cut into cubes and used in soups, stews and casseroles along with other vegetables.

This recipe for Acorn Squash Filled with Cider Spiced Apples uses this winter squash in a flavorful way that serves up beautifully and pairs well with pork or chicken. It's the perfect fall side dish!

Acorn Squash filled with spiced apples

squash horizontally. Scoop out the seeds. Place squash halves in the baking dish with the cut sides up. Brush with 1 tablespoon butter and sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Set pan aside.

3. In a large bowl, combine the apples, 1/4 cup of cider, the maple syrup or brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Divide the apples among the squash halves, distributing the excess liquid among them evenly. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of the butter and sprinkle with the remaining nutmeg.

4. Pour the remaining 1 1/4 cups of cider into the baking dish. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 1 1/4 hours until the apples are tender. Serves 4.

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted • 2 small (1 pound each) acorn squash • 1 teaspoon salt • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper • 2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch dice • 1½ cups apple cider • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or brown sugar • ½ teaspoon nutmeg

It’s a Dog’s Life Fitting Glasses The proprietor of a successful optical shop was instructing his son on how to charge a customer.

“After you have fitted the customer’s glasses,” he said, “and he asks you what the charge will be, you say, ’$100.’ Then see if he winces.

“If the customer doesn’t wince you say, ’For the frames. The lenses will be another $50.’

“If he still doesn’t wince you say firmly, ’Each.’” Inside: buy a dog.

Excuses A police officer pulls over this guy who’s been weaving in and out of the lanes.

He goes up to the guy’s window and says, “Sir, I need you to blow into this breathalyzer tube.”

The man says, “Sorry, officer, I can’t do that. I am an asthmatic. If I do that, I’ll have a really bad asthma attack.”

“Okay, fine. I need you to come down to the station to give a blood sample.”

“I can’t do that either. I am a hemophiliac. If I do that, I’ll bleed to death.”

“Well, then, we need a urine sample.”

“I’m sorry, officer, I can’t do that either. I am also a diabetic. If I do that, I’ll get really low blood sugar.”

“All right, then I need you to come out here and walk this white line.”

“I can’t do that, officer.”

“Why not?”

“Because I’m drunk.”

Me neither Bob and Joe sat next to each other taking a test.

When they finished, the teacher called them up to the front of the room and said, “Boys, I will have to give both of you a zero on this test.”

“W-why?” they wanted to know, though Joe was shifting uncomfortably.

She said, “Your answers were too nearly alike. One of you cheated and the other one let him do it.”

“What makes you think we cheated?” Bob asked.

“That could have been a coincidence.”

The teacher said, “I might have believed that if it wasn’t for the fact that when you came to question #10, Bob wrote in ’I don’t know’ for the answer, and you, Joe, put ’Me neither’!”

Maryland’s capitol.

Up next on the roaming capital itinerary (No. 7 if you’re following on a scorecard) was Trenton, New Jersey, where delegates met for six weeks in the French Arms Tavern and didn’t do much but drink lots of hot buttered rum.

New York City got its turn to play host in January 1785.

Delegates gathered in the old city hall on Wall Street where the United States government we know today was finally established and George Washington sworn-in as its first president.

The new United States Congress decided to settle down in a city built from scratch.

President Washington signed the Residence Act, calling for the permanent capital to be located on the Potomac River, in 1790. President John Adams and the entire federal workforce (all 131 of them) arrived in Washington, D.C. in 1800 where the capital has remained ever since.

Control “Cash, check or charge?”

I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase.

As she fumbled for her wallet I notice a remote control for a television set in her purse.

“Do you always carry your TV remote?” I asked.

“No,” she replied. “But my husband refused to come shopping with me, so I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him.”

problem: it was flat broke.

In today’s language, the government’s checking account had insufficient funds.

The warden was thinking of remodeling his kitchen and in fact had done much of the work himself, but he lacked the skills to build a set of kitchen cupboards and a large countertop, which he had promised his wife.

So he called Andy into his office and asked him to complete the job for him.

However, Andy refused by telling the warden, “Gosh, I’d really like to help you, but counter fitting is what got me into prison in the first place.”
