Every year, creatures across the nation are blessed by priests to celebrate the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi. St. Francis, who was reportedly known to love all of God’s creatures, preached sermons to animals, and praised all creatures as brothers and sisters under God. The ceremonies typically include a verbal blessing and administering of holy water. All animals are welcome at these events – with creatures from dogs to horses welcome to receive the blessings.

Public invited to learn about increased security efforts By Adam Cook In the wake of the Jack Sawyer incident at Fair Haven Union High School last April, the Addison Rutland Supervisory Union is tightening security, according to superintendent Brooke Olson-Farrell. Now, in tandem with the Castleton and Fair Haven police departments, the school is Training hosting an ALICE program set training session. ALICE stands for for Wednesday Alert, Lockdown, at FHUHS gym Inform, Counter, and Evacuate, and it’s designed to help individuals know what to do in case of an active-shooter situation. “It’s a training to provide individuals with an option-based response to an active shooter,” Olson-Farrell said in a recent interview. “It will be classroom level, so there will be some videos (and) some practical information on what to do if that happens.” The program, according to the website, was created out of a hus-

The founder, Greg Crane, was a law enforcement officer in the Dallas area, and upon hearing the type of plans in place, he decided to make a change. “Overall, we’re looking at overhauling and upgrading all of our security throughout our district,” Olson-Farrell said.

since it happened. Some members of the community attended an ALICE training session in Manchester. “I think it brought more awareness that (school shootings) can happen here in a small community,” he said in a recent phone interview. For Humphries, this is more than a good opportunity for people to see what school children are being taught in regard to school shootings. “It’s a good opportunity to see a change in mentality, especially with older people,” he said. Olson-Farrell said that this is not the first training session put on by the school district. This summer, there was a simulation style training using vol-

unteers with air soft rifles. “There’s actually an active part of the training where we actually do drills and simulations using this technique,” she said. The ALICE training program will take place at the Fair Haven Union High School gym from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 10. Members of the public are invited to attend, and refreshments will be served. For Olson-Farrell, the type of training that ALICE provides is important for both students and staff in the district. “In this day and age, we have to be prepared,” she said. “We want our staff and our students to have options and not be waiting for someone to tell them what to do.”

pets,” Father Joe Arockiasamy said last year. “All animals.” Arockiasamy has blessed local animals at St. Mary’s for eight years now. In the past, dogs, goats, horses and more have attended the annual ceremony. Typically, the blessing takes place outside the church at 23 Bulkley Ave. in Granville. A verbal prayer, reading from the

scripture, and sprinkling of holy water are expected. A group photo of owners and their pets will take place after the ceremony. For more information, call St. Mary’s at 518-642-1262. Across the border, in Vermont, additional churches are planning pet blessings this weekend.

St. Raphael’s Catholic Church in Poultney, Vermont, will host its Blessing of the Animals event on Sunday, Oct. 7 at 9 a.m. “We will say a prayer for the animals and for the families who bring the animals, and we will bless them with the holy water,” Father Lourduraja Simeone said last year. The ceremony is expected to be the same this year. This is Father Simeone’s third year doing this event- and his third year as the pastor at St. Raphael’s. In 2016, 10 animals were blessed. Last year, Simeone said that because St. Francis was with animals, the church planned to have a special day for the animals. The brief ceremony includes a verbal prayer and holy water. Animals are typically blessed together. The church is located at 21 E Main St. in Poultney. For more information, call 802-287-5703.

Wells St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Wells, Vermont will also host its blessing of the animals on Sunday, Oct. 7. But according to Rev. William Davidson, instead of hosting the ceremony in the afternoon like they did the past few years, they will be holding it right during the service at 9 a.m. Davidson said that families seemed to have trouble with bringing their pets back to church in the afternoon. “This way, they’ll either bring the dog or cat, or animal, to church, or a picture of it, or a drawing of it, and we’ll do it right in the middle of the Eucharist,” he said. Davidson also said it is important for pets to be blessed. “It’s important because it actually gets people to think how important pets are,” he said. He also said it was important because it gets adults and children to think about the creation- and how important it is to take care of the environment. He says that sometimes people will bring pictures of a pet who has passed away.

WHERE I STAND

ON

FIREARMS:

I am a gun owner and I support the firearm legislation the Governor signed this spring. Two public safety laws enable Extreme Risk Prevention orders and temporary confiscation of guns at domestic assaults. The third law expands background checks, bans bump stocks, raises purchase age to 21, and prohibits new high capacity magazines. These regulations are not anti-gun any more than speed limits and learner’s permits are anti-car. They are reasonable and constitutional regulation of deadly weapons. The latest VPR/ PBS poll showed 67% of Vermonters support these measures. In addition, the state allocated money to improve school safety and E-911 coverage. Recognizing that gun violence is a result of many causes, the legislature is also expanding mental health treatment and addressing childhood trauma.

CFL Garden Club will focus on zombies...I mean, bulbs, on Thursday, Oct. 11. Bulbs certainly appear dry, papery and lifeless when we commit them to the earth, but they rise! Come at 5:30 p.m. if the weather is cooperative, and you would like to help plant bulbs in the library beds crocuses, daffodils, and other cheerful zombies, as well as garlic (to ward off you-know-who). At sunset (around 6:15 p.m.) in any

weather, we’ll head indoors for some garden inspiration - a short slide presentation, Bulbs at Keukenhof Gardens, featuring photos taken in spring 2014 at this world-renowned botanical delight. We’ll also talk about garlic. And maybe vampires. For more information about any of the above, email or call Jan and Mary at castletonfreelibrary@ gmail.com or 802-468-5574.

The Lakes Region FreePress - Friday, October 5, 2018 - 9


10 - Friday, October 5, 2018 - The Lakes Region FreePress was the one to open it, he called out gaily, “How young and beautiful you look today, Mrs. Hayes,” and we laughed together at his great joke. But Mr. Little is long-gone, as is Little’s Market, as is Barslow’s Bakery, and Calvi’s soda fountain. Fair Haven is a different place now. The other Main Street grocery stores went out of business. Both Norton’s Hardware and the Factory Outlet burned down. The Fair Haven Era news paper is no longer published. The two grand marble houses became, one a bed and breakfast and the other senior housing. The Park Boys can’t be found lounging along the park-encircling fence. My father’s high school turned into the town offices building. But what I particularly remember is gone-things that are hard to imagine ever existed. There was once a substantial block of pale marble at the head of a slate-pieces walkway leading to my grandmother’s flower-box-lined, front porch, steps. One summer day, I was playing there, using the block as a pretend tea table, when I heard steadilyapproaching jingling and dragging sounds. Way off down the street, a dirty, beat-up, farm wagon was coming toward me. Even in those days this contraption was a relic. For all the jingling and dragging from the farm wagon itself, the two men on it were silent. One was standing up in front holding the horse’s reins. At the back end of the wagon, another sat slumped forward, his legs hanging down, vacant-eyed, swaying and silent The Blind Boys were coming into town. Their clothing - which was rags, their horse, and their wagon, everything was the no-color of smoke and ancient farm-things. Riding on the dragging, jingling, steadilyprogressing, wagon, they seemed two phantoms. But I stayed crouched at the side of the road until I heard my grandmother, suddenly out on the porch, calling me in. When ten years later a new Route Four into New York State was built, the Dutton Avenue that I’d always known was obliterated. My grandmother’s trees came down. Her cool, green, once-elm-shaded, lawn shrank away before the road-widening bulldozers.

Remembering the Blind Boys By Pamela Hayes Rehlen In the 1950s, when I first knew about them, the Blind Boys lived in a little cobbled-together farmstead on Fair Haven’s Scotch Hill. They were seldom seen, but both my father, and my grandmother - who lived on Dutton Avenue, the road, I think still dirt, that beyond her house climbed up into Scotch Hill and from there into the, at that time, wilds of West Castleton - knew all about the Blind Boys. My father said that there were three of them, and they weren’t all blind, but each of the brothers had some sort of disability. They kept a few animals and lived what had to have been a brutally-marginal life. In the 1950s, I used to go stay with my Fair Haven grandmother. She had a house with a bay window and a side porch, built about 1900 and very similar to a lot of other houses in town. My grandfather settled her there after their three children were grown. He drove his Auburn car down to check up on her once a week, but stayed at, and ran, a farm in Benson. My grandmother, whom I loved dearly, was a solitary, fearful, person gently-grieving a lost West Haven girlhood. She mostly lived in just three rooms of her house. She either sat reading in a dim-corner armchair or set up in the middle of the living room at a round oak table on which she wrote a great many letters. In the summer, she filled mason jars with pinkypurple phlox and put them on this central table next to boxes of scented stationary sent to her by my Aunt Elizabeth, who years earlier had moved to Oregon. Out in front of her house, elms shaded tranquil Dutton Avenue, and on either side of the quiet road, there was a deep ditch full of a rich assortment of tall weeds, wild flowers and the dark glint of old rain water. I remember a summer morning, like any of the summer mornings. Mr. Little delivered a box of groceries to my grandmother’s kitchen door, and when I

The impregnable marble block, my childhood tea table, was wrested out of the ground –a dark, earthstained, underside exposed - and tossed onto a pile of construction rubble. No longer a road leading up into the dark forests and drowned quarry holes of wild West Castleton, Scotch Hill turned into a stretch of new suburban houses with spectacular views toward the Adirondacks. Perhaps the Blind Boys were taken into state care. Perhaps they died. Their little huts and animal pens on the western-view side of Scotch Hill were demolished, the land cleared and sold. It’s hard to believe they ever existed, lived the way they did, and once came rolling past me, a little girl crouched by the side of the road, in that long-gone world of my grandmother’s house on Dutton Avenue.

The connection between eating and energy The connection between energy and eating is significant. A healthy diet and approach to eating can vastly improve energy levels, while a poorly planned diet that lacks nutrition can contribute to feelings of fatigue and increase a person's risk for various ailments. The Harvard Medical School notes that different kinds of foods are converted to energy at different rates. That's why some foods, such as candy, provide quick boosts of energy while foods such as whole grains tend to supply the body with energy reserves that it can draw on throughout the day. It's not just what people eat but how they eat that can affect their energy levels. In addition to choosing the right foods, men and women can try the following strategies as they look to eat to boost their energy levels. n Eat smaller, more frequent meals. Avoiding the traditional threemeals-per-day approach may help improve energy levels, especially for people who tend to eat sizable meals once, twice or even three times every day. According to the Cleveland Clinic, the metabolisms of

people who do not eat regularly will slow down, as the body absorbs and stores more of the food it eats. Those stores include cholesterol and fat, which can be unhealthy and contribute to weight gain. However, by eating small meals more frequently, one's metabolism speeds up and more calories are burned. The body recognizes more food is soon on the way and, as a result, it does not need to store as much cholesterol and fat as it would if meals were eaten less frequently. n Avoid a big lunch. The Harvard

Medical School notes that, while the reasons are unclear, research has indicated that the circadian rhythms of people who eat big lunches indicate a more significant drop in afternoon energy levels than the rhythms of people who eat smaller midday meals. Men and women who eat big lunches and find their energy levels waning later in the workday can try to eat smaller midday meals to boost their energy. n Be careful with caffeine. The foods people eat are not the only components of their diet that can affect their energy levels. Caffeinated beverages can

provide a temporary boost of energy as well. However, men and women who drink coffee or other caffeinated beverages to boost their energy levels should avoid doing so in large amounts after 2 p.m. That's because caffeine can cause insomnia, and insufficient sleep can dramatically affect energy levels. n Choose the right snacks. Eating smaller, more frequent meals may compel some people to snack. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics notes that snacks are important as long as they're the right snacks. Avoid snacks that are just empty calories in favor of foods that contain protein and fiber-rich carbohydrates. Such snacks, which may include fruits such as apples and fresh berries or protein sources like nuts and Greek yogurt, can provide lasting energy. It's also important that men and women not snack to fill themselves up, but rather to quell any hunger pangs and get an energy boost between meals. The foods people eat and when they eat them can have a dramatic impact on their energy levels.

Explaining common terms on food labels When shopping for groceries, some consumers may feel as if they need a degree in nutrition sciences to determine just what it is theyÕre buying. Food labels can be complex and include various terms that may be unknown to consumers. Understanding these terms can help people make sound decisions regarding the foods they eat. n Cage free: Eggs labeled 'cage free' means that the hens that laid the eggs were not raised in caged housing systems, which the Humane Society of the United States has described as inhumane. The organization Food and Water Watch notes that living conditions for hens raised in cage-free environments may still be poor. n Daily value: According to the medical resource WebMD, daily value indicates the percentage of a certain nutrient in a food, based on a 2,000-calorie-per-day diet. WebMD notes that 8 percent is general considered to be good. n Dietary fiber: The Mayo Clinic notes that dietary fiber refers to the parts of plant foods that the human body cannot digest or absorb. Fiber is typically classified as soluble, which refers to types of fiber that dissolve in water, and insoluble, which is used to describe types of fiber that promote movement of material through the digestive system.

Soluble fiber can help lower blood cholesterol and glucose levels, while insoluble can help people who suffer from constipation or irregular stools. n Enriched: Foods that are labeled as 'enriched' have had nutrients added to them to replace those that were lost when the food was processed. n Fortified: Fortified describes foods that had nutrients added to them that were not present initially. A common example of a fortified food or beverage is milk, which is fortified with vitamin D to help the body absorb the calcium present in milk. n GMO: GMO stands for 'genetically modified organisms,' which are organisms that have had their genetic material artificially manipulated in genetic engineering labs. The Non-GMO Project says

that a growing body of evidence has connected GMOs with an assortment of health problems and environmental damage. n Grass fed: Grass fed implies that the animals used to produce meat and dairy were fed only grass. Consumer Reports advises consumers to look for seals such as American Grassfed or PCO Certified 100% Grassfed to ensure that manufacturer claims have been verified and that the animals were fed 100 percent grass and raised on pasture. n Hormone free: The federal government of the United States prohibits the use of hormones to raise poultry and hogs, so manufacturers who label their foods as 'hormone free' have not gone above and beyond to make their foods healthier. n Organic: The United States

Department of Agriculture has strict criteria in regard to labeling foods as 'organic.' To be labeled 'organic,' dairy, eggs, meat, and poultry can come only from animals that were not given antibiotics or growth hormones. Fruits and vegetables can only be labeled 'organic' if they were produced without conventional pesticides, fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients, bioengineering, or ionizing radiation. n Processed: Many consider processed foods to be bad and loaded with additives. But that's not always the case. The USDA defines processed as foods that have undergone a change of character. For example, cut, prewashed spinach qualifies as a processed food. n Sodium: Otherwise known as salt, sodium is necessary to maintain nerve and muscle health. However, many people consume too much sodium, oftentimes because of processed foods. WebMD notes that sodium intake should be limited to 2,300 milligrams or less per day. Certain people, such as those over the age of 51, African Americans or those with certain conditions, such as hypertension and diabetes, should consume no more than 1,500 milligrams of sodium per day. Understanding food labels is a great first step toward eating healthy.

Although playing sports is beneficial for various reasons, there are some inherent risks to participating in them as well. Physical injuries, such as concussions and broken bones, can result from participating in sports. But perhaps surprisingly, eye injuries are quite common among young athletes. Such injuries often do not get the attention with regard to prevention that statistics suggest they warrant. According to the National Eye Institute, eye injuries are the leading

cause of blindness in children in America. Many eye injuries among school-aged children are attributed to sports. A study published in the journal JAMA Ophthalmology that was based on research from Johns Hopkins University, Harvard and other institutions found about 30,000 sports-related eye injuries are treated each year at emergency rooms participating in the Nationwide Emergency Department sample, which compiles information

about millions of emergency room visits to more than 900 hospitals around the country. Data indicates that a large majority of these injuries occurred in people younger than 18, and a sizable number in children younger than 10. The situation is similar in Canada. “We believe that sports eye injuries are the largest cause of vision loss in children,” said Keith Gordon, vice-president of research at CNIB, a Torontobased nonprofit that provides support

services for the visually impaired. The NEI states that baseball is the sport responsible for the greatest number of eye injuries in children age 14 and younger. Basketball has the highest number of eye injuries for players between the ages of 15 and 24. Other sports that account for a high rate of eye injuries include softball, soccer and cycling. Players, parents and coaches must realize that, according to the Coalition to Prevent Sports Eye Injuries, 90 percent of sports-related eye injuries can be avoided with the use of protective eyewear. Protective eyewear is often made of strong polycarbonate, which is 10 times more impact-resistant than other plastics. All children who play sports should wear protective eyewear, warn sports medicine experts. However, currently many youth sports leagues do not require the use of such protection, making it the responsibility of parents and coaches to enforce this important safety protocol. Protecting eyes when playing sports is of paramount importance for athletes of all ages. More information about sports-related activities and protective eyewear is available at Vision Council of America (www.thevisioncouncil.org) and Prevent Blindness America (www.preventblindness.org).

Recognize food spoilage and learn how to prevent it Many people do not think about the perils of food poisoning until they hear of one or more people getting sick from foods they have consumed. Foodborne illnesses send roughly 128,000 Americans to the hospital each year, and account for 3,000 deaths annually, states the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Roughly one in six people will get sick from a food they've consumed this year. Food poisoning may occur when foods are not properly washed or cooked to adequate temperatures to kill pathogens. After eating foods that have been sitting out at room temperature for too long, which enables pathogens to multiply, people can easily get sick. Sometimes people get sick from food that has spoiled in the refrigerator or even in its original packaging. Learning about food spoilage and related illnesses can help people avoid falling victim to food poisoning.

Why food spoils Food can spoil for many different reasons. n Moisture: Foods that have a high water content can decompose more quickly than those that don't. Moisture in foods allows microorganisms to dissolve food they use, and can cause chemical reactions to occur in foods. Molding, caking and lumping of products can result from humidity or moisture getting into drier foods. Condensation can cause bacteria and molds to grow. n Oxygen: Oxidative spoilage can cause loss of fats and fatty portions of foods. Oxygen can affect food colors, and compromise the nutritional value and flavor of certain foods. Vacuum packaging keeps air out of foods to prevent spoilage. n Microorganisms: Certain microorganisms may be present on or in foods and will proliferate with moisture, heat and oxygen. n Temperature: When temperatures

are not controlled properly, food can spoil. It is essential that foods are stored, cooked and served at the proper temperature.

4. Chill: Refrigerate cold foods promptly. Germs can grow in as little as two hours at room temperature.

The Danger Zone

Recognize food spoilage

Pathogenic spoilage occurs when foods are exposed to temperatures between 40 F and 140F, which is dubbed "The Danger Zone." The USDA recommends keeping cold food below 40 F (4.4 C) and hot food at or above 140 F (60 C) to prevent it from going bad.

People without an acute sense of smell and eyesight, such as the elderly, may be at greater risk of food spoilage that can make them sick than younger people. Food that is going bad tends to develop unpleasant odors and textures. The health and food resource Nutronics Health says that most fresh or recently cooked food leftovers should only be stored in the refrigerator for three to four days. Showcase foods that will spoil quickly by keeping them in a visible spot. An Uncluttered Life advises discarding items that have been stored in the freezer for more than six months. Staying safe and healthy means keeping an eye on how foods are handled and stored, and taking steps to prevent spoilage.

Food preparation necessities The CDC recommends these four steps to additionally prevent food spoilage and illness: 1. Clean: Wash hands and food-preparation surfaces often. 2. Separate: Do not cross-contaminate hands, surfaces and prepared foods with raw foods. 3. Cook: Cook all foods to the recommended temperature.

Does gluten-free benefit everyone? If the number of glutenfree products stocking store shelves and appearing on restaurant menus are any indication, then the general public has embraced glutenfree living. Many people eat gluten-free diets despite not having Celiac disease, which is a condition that requires people to avoid gluten. However, a voluntary gluten censorship may not be all that it's cracked up to be. Less than 1 percent of Americans are gluten-intolerant or afflicted with Celiac disease. Despite this, the popularity of glutenfree diets tripled between 2013 and 2014, according to reports from The Kitchn. Although people who are sensitive to gluten may feel better avoiding it, Dr. Daniel A. Leffler, director of clinical research at the Celiac Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, has said others will derive no significant benefit from gluten avoidance and will simply waste money buying the more expensive gluten-free alternatives. People with perceived gluten sensitives may not have aversions to gluten at all. According to a study conducted by Monash University and published in 2013, people with self-reported non-celiac gluten sensitivity, gluten only caused negative symptoms when subjects knew they

were eating it. When they believe the food to be something else, participants experienced no symptoms. Other medical experts say that gluten may not be to blame for sensitivity, which may be a result of fermentable, poorly absorbed, short-chain carbohydrates (FODMAPs), like grains, beans, dairy, and some fruits. By removing the grain (gluten included), affected individuals feel better, thinking gluten is to blame. Those with no reason to avoid gluten

could be putting their health at risk by skipping wheat and other grains. A recent study from Harvard Medical School says those who avoid gluten may be harming their heart health. The study, which tracked the eating habits of 64,714 women and 45,303 men over a period of 26 years, found that long-term avoidance of gluten in adults sometimes caused the reduced consumption of heart-healthy whole grains that affect cardiovascular risk. Study leader Andrew Chan said that indi-

viduals who consumed the lowest levels of dietary gluten had a 15 percent higher risk of heart disease. The study concluded that the promotion of gluten-free diets among people for whom it is deemed medically unnecessary to avoid gluten should not be encouraged. There may be other reasons to continue to eat gluten. A study published in The British Journal of Nutrition, titled, "Effects of a gluten-free diet on gut microbiota and immune function in healthy adult human subjects," found a gluten-free diet may adversely affect gut flora and immune function. This potentially puts people at risk for an overgrowth of harmful bacteria in their intestinal biome. Another study published in Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry found that gluten may boost immune function. After roughly a week on added gluten protein, subjects experienced increased natural killer cell activity, which could be helpful in improving the body's ability to fight viral infections and cancer. A gluten-free diet isn't necessarily a healthy one. While such a diet may be necessary for those with Celiac disease, unless a doctor has determined a person needs to avoid gluten, it is wise to include whole grains in a balanced diet.

Can diet prevent breast cancer from spreading? n Diet can possibly influence the course of a disease Healthy diets that include plenty of antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables that can boost the body's natural immune system can help people in their fight against cancer. While some foods, namely unhealthy, high-fat/high-caloric foods, are best avoided, women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer who want to prevent the spread of cancer to other areas of their bodies may want to cut some surprising foods from their diets.

Preliminary research now suggests limiting the consumption of asparagine, an amino acid, to dramatically reduce the ability of cancer to spread to other parts of the body. A study published in the journal Nature found that reducing asparagine consumption in laboratory mice with triple-negative breast cancer could dramatically reduce the ability of the cancer to travel to distant sites in the body. Asparagine is found in foods like asparagus, whole grains, soy, seafood, eggs, poultry, beef, legumes, and more. While reducing asparagine will not affect

the original breast cancer tumor, it could stop cancer from showing up elsewhere in the body. Researchers suspect that many women with breast cancer do not lose their lives to the original breast cancer tumor, but instead they succumb to metastases or subsequent growths away from the primary site. "Our study adds to a growing body of evidence that suggests diet can influence the course of the disease," said Simon Knott, Ph.D., associate director of the Center for Bioinformatics and Functional Genomics at Cedars-Sinai and one of two

first authors of the study. The research from this study was conducted at more than a dozen institutions. Apart from dietary restrictions, metastasis also could be greatly limited by reducing asparagine synthetase using chemotherapy drug L-asparaginase. More research is needed as to whether similar results can be produced in human trials, making avoiding asparagine currently a helpful but not entirely foolproof method for preventing the spread of breast cancer to other areas of the body.

Cannabis and cancer-related pain The National Cancer Institute notes that, while more research is necessary, small studies have indicated the potential benefits of cannabis in helping cancer patients overcome the pain associated with their disease. According to the NCI, a small study of 21 patients with chronic pain who combined vaporized cannabis with morphine experienced improved pain relief compared to patients who took only morphine. However, combining vaporized cannabis with oxyco-

done, a narcotic pain reliever and cough suppressant that is similar to morphine, did not produce significantly greater pain relief. In addition, two small studies indicated that delta-9-THC, the main active cannabinoid in marijuana, helped to relieve pain as well as nausea and vomiting. A second study indicated that delta-9-THC given in doses could provide pain relief similar to that provided by codeine, a pain-relieving drug derived from morphine.

The NCI also cites a study that indicated a cannabis plant extract medicine effectively relieved pain when sprayed under the tongue of advanced cancer patients whose pain was not relieved by strong opioids alone. That study also indicated that some patients were able to continue to control their cancerrelated pain without needing higher doses of the cannabis spray or higher doses of other pain medications they were taking.

The benefits of including dairy in your daily diet A well-balanced diet has long been touted as a necessary component to a healthy lifestyle. When combined with routine exercise, a well-balanced diet can improve quality of life and reduce a person's risk for various diseases. No well-balanced diet is complete without dairy. While many people may immediately associate milk with dairy, dairy products are much more diverse than that. In fact, including various dairy products in your diet can provide a host of diverse health benefits.

Dairy products are nutrient-rich The United States Department of Agriculture notes that dairy products provide a host of nutrients that are vital to overall health. n Calcium: The nutrient most often linked to dairy, calcium is vital for building strong bones and healthy teeth. Dairy also helps to maintain bone mass, helping men and women combat age-related bone loss. n Potassium: Dairy products such as yogurt, fluid milk and soy milk are good sources of potassium. ThatÕs beneficial because diets rich in potassium help men and women maintain healthy blood pres-

sures. n Vitamin D: Like calcium, vitamin D is widely associated with dairy, particularly milk. Vitamin D helps bodies build and maintain strong bones, and products such as fluid milk and soy milk are great sources of vitamin D. Yogurts and cereals fortified with vitamin D also can be great

sources of this valuable vitamin.

Health benefits Osteoporosis is a condition in which a person's bones become fragile and brittle due to loss of tissue. Age is a risk factor for osteoporosis, but a poor diet that does not include sufficient amounts of dairy

What makes your day perfect?

also can increase a person's risk for osteoporosis. The Department of Agriculture notes that dairy can help men and women lower their risk for ailments other than osteoporosis. Adequate dairy intake has been associated with a reduced risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Athletes may be especially motivated to consume dairy, as its effect on bone strength and maintenance can help them reduce their risk for injury while practicing and competing. Adolescents and children can benefit greatly from diets that contain adequate amounts of dairy. Bone mass is built during childhood and adolescence, so foods such as dairy that promote bone health can help children and teenagers develop strong, healthy bones. In regard to which dairy products to include in one's diet, the Department of Agriculture notes the importance of avoiding foods that are high in saturated fat. Dairy products high in saturated fats can contribute to high amounts of "bad" cholesterol in the blood, increasing a person's risk for coronary heart disease. Low-fat dairy products make for a healthy alternative to dairy that is high in saturated fats, and men and women can discuss such products with their physicians. No balanced diet is complete without dairy, which benefits the body in myriad ways.

Simple ways to alleviate back pain Few health problems are as prevalent as back pain. The American Chiropractic Association says that 50 percent of working Americans admit to having back pain symptoms each year. Bone and Joint Health Canada states that as much as 80 percent of people experience back pain at least once in their lifetime. Back pain can be so significant that it results in a loss of function that impedes daily activities. In fact, according to the 2015 Global Burden of Disease report, back pain is the single leading cause of disability in most countries. Back pain can be a complex issue. According to data complied by TheGoodBody.com, only one in 10 people learns the primary cause of their pain. ThatÕs because many things, including muscle sprains or joint irritation, can contribute to back pain. Other factors that may contribute to back pain include arthritis, stress, obesity, or diseases of the internal organs. Each of these issues can make it challenging to uncover the culprit behind back pain.

Ruling out degenerative diseases can be a first step in treating back pain. Doctors also may ask their patients about their level of physical activity. Doctors may want to know if patients suffering back pain engage in activities involving repetitive movements to determine if their back pain can be traced to these activities. Some common factors contribute to back pain, and addressing these issues may bring about relief.

n Strengthen core muscles. Poor muscle tone, especially in the back and abdominal muscles, may result in back pain. Engaging in activities that strengthen the core can help strengthen the area, offering more support to the back. A doctor, physical therapist or fitness instructor may guide you in exercises, such as planks or abdominal crunches, that can strengthen the core. n Get up and move. A seden-

tary lifestyle can be a major contributor to back pain. Nearly half of Americans who experience back pain are desk workers who spend the majority of their time sitting, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Qi Spine, a clinic that gathered data from 1,300 people who said they deal with spine-related pain, found that half the participants with sedentary jobs had lower back pain. Standing, moving around and taking breaks from the desk can help alleviate pain. n Lose weight. The spine is vulnerable to effects of obesity. Extra weight in the abdomen may pull the pelvis forward and strain the lower back, states the American Obesity Association. Losing weight can reduce that strain on the lower back, thereby reducing pain. Back pain is a frequent complaint and compels many people to visit their doctors. Exercise, maintaining a healthy weight and strengthening core muscles can go a long way toward keeping the back healthy and pain-free.

Mathewson to read from letters ‘beyond the grave’ The Dorset Historical Society and the Dorset Library present an evening with author Joseph Citro on Wednesday, Oct. 10 at 7 p.m. at the library. A reception with light refreshments will follow the program. To kick off the evening, Jon Mathewson, DHS curator, will read excerpts from letters detailing answers from beyond the grave to questions asked at Dorset séances circa 1890. These letters are part of a collection at the Dorset Historical Society archives. Joseph Citro is an author, lecturer

and expert on New England oddities who is renowned for both his novels and non-fiction books on the “Just Plain Weird.” Citro has appeared frequently on local and national radio and television. His entertaining lectures and readings are sought after by those wanting something historically valid, but decidedly out of the ordinary. Please call the library at 802-867-5774 or the historical society at 802-867-0331 for additional information. The Dorset Library is located at 3331 Vermont Route 30 in Dorset.

Pawlet Public Library hosting variety of fall events A dinner auction in October and a motor coach tour to King Arthur Flour in November crown the fall events presented by the Pawlet Public Library. On Thursday, Oct. 11, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., the library’s Board of Trustees hosts a fundraising dinner with live and silent auctions at The Barn in Pawlet. Advanced reservation with a $25 per person dinner payment is required. Mail check payable to the Pawlet Public Library to the library at P.O. Box 98, Pawlet, Vermont 05761. Pawlet resident Bob Ebling yields the gavel to auction items including a Mettawee Valley scenic airplane ride; holiday dinner for six at a historic house; camping package at Merck

Forest and Farmland Center; Luella Park’s famous homemade raspberry pie; architectural consultation; and pottery lessons on the wheel. The silent auction bursts with other tempting items and experiences. Proceeds from the event help fund free library programs and the purchase of new books for adults and children. For a complete list of live and silent auction items visit www.pawletpubliclibrary.wordpress.com. In November, a motor coach tour to King Arthur Flour in Norwich kicks off a series of public programs in collaboration with the Vermont Humanities Council’s Vermont Reads 2018, featuring the book Bread and Roses, Too by

Vermont author Katherine Paterson. Her book about the 1912 “Bread and Roses” strike in the Lawrence, Massachusetts textile mills as seen through the eyes of a young ItalianAmerican girl and a runaway boy, who are sent temporarily to a foster family in Barre. Advanced registration with $55 payment to Pawlet Public Library is required for the King Arthur Flour tour and demo, scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 3, departing the library at 9 a.m. and returning at 5 p.m. Copies of the book will be available to read on the motor coach. The final session in the library’s Vermont Reads 2018 programs is at the

Slate Valley Museum on Saturday, Nov. 17, 1-2 p.m. to view exhibits that interpret the immigration experience of many families who moved to the local area to work in the slate industry. The book discussion is free and the museum visit is $5, and both are open to adults and children. For parents/caregivers and children birth through grade six, the library offers its annual Halloween Parade on Saturday, Oct. 27, 10 a.m. to noon. All ghosts, goblins, fairies, animals, and other characters arrive at the library to parade up the street and back, stopping for treats along the way. Free with refreshments at the library after the parade.
