Down Memory Lane
Amending the new pastor commandments
Ray and I are still in Florida as I write. I think I covered most of the reasons last month. It has been quite a time for Ray. First, they removed a large basal cell from his arm. Next came major back surgery resulting in wearing a back brace for three months. Then he decided it was a good time for cataract surgery. During the brace time he had a heart attack resulting in four stents. That took us up to the last of June. Then it came my turn. I just did not like dealing with my sleeping little finger and half of the one. My doctor sent me to the nerve doctor that-electric fence
like- zapped me all up and down my arm. My pressed ulnar nerve in my elbow was Doris the problem. Before the test Butt I took a couple prescribed diazepam relaxers. I did not feel any different, but I guess they helped. I have three left. Maybe some stressful day I will take them Long story short, that my finger fix brought us to the end of July. Now I do not want to give the impression that we are suffering down here. I am still trudging along as usual. Ray’s back is still healing, but otherwise he is almost back to his usual self. This week he even washed the sun-
room windows. Took him a few days, but he did it. I feel a little embarrassed about my finger attention after dealing with Ray’s major medical needs. However, I wanted my finger fixed now, so it will not interfere with knee surgery this fall. All of the numerous surgeries have been without pain. I hear the knee surgery may put an end to that. We will see. Staying offered me an opportunity send off Pastor Steven on his last Sunday. I called on all my creative being to write a farewell responsive reading that brought lots of tears. Then we sang, May the Good Lord Bless and Keep You. More tears. I am thankful that sometime God nudges my words a positive way. Pastor moved on to serve at
Red Bird Mission in Beverly, Ky. We stood together every winter Sunday in our 1884 church for six years without an unpleasant word. I liked that because deep down I am kind of delicate to harsh words. With one Sunday in between our Pastor Steven leaving and a Pastor Mary arriving, I had the perfect opportunity to pass on Ten Commandments for on Receiving a New Pastor by Brain McLaren I found on the Internet. I am going to pass my edited version of them on because there might be a congregation out there that needs them. Of course, I have a few comments to add. 1. Thou shall not compare the new pastor to the pastor leaving. Now I have to admit that Pastor Steven had a great
voice that lead the singing. Well, new Pastor Mary admitted she steps away from the microphone during singing of hymns. But I won’t say anything. 2. Thou shall not expect everything to be the same. Everyone “should” know that. 3. Thou shall not make graven images of an old grudge or disappointment. I really had never thought of such graven images, but it sure is true that such unforgiving thoughts can take control of you. 4. Thou shall; not commit gossip, or complain, nor listen to others but encourage them to adjust their attitudes. I somehow just get sucked into such conversations. I listen so long, and then I seem to have something I have to add. And then I get disgusted at myself. See PASTOR, Page 4

Local veterans visit hallowed ground Staff Report
A chartered bus left the Lawrenceburg American Legion Post No. 23 Friday morning, June 1, loaded with veterans from Southeastern Indiana. This was the sixth trip for veterans to Washington, D.C. to see the sites originating from the Lawrenceburg area. The first two were Honor Flights to take the World War II veterans to D.C. to see their memorial. Because of their age, it was a one-day flight up and back. Starting with the third trip, it was decided to co-ordinate a three-day bus trip with John Schuler Tours. Since these veterans were younger, they wouldn’t mind the bus ride to D.C. The first stop was in Shanksville, Pa., to see the crash site and memorial to Flight 93. The memorial was recently completed and is now open to the public. On Saturday, June 2, the group arrived in downtown D.C. at 8 a.m. and started by
visiting the Iwo Jima (or Marine Corps) Memorial. They visited the Air Force Memorial and then crossed the Potomac River to the Lincoln Memorial where they were met by John Connell, representing Ninth District State Rep. Todd Young, who with Andrew Terp, presented an American Flag that had been flown over the U.S. Capitol to Brett Bondurant. Brett was badly wounded back on Sept. 28, in Afghanistan by an IED and lost both legs. Brett was the “guest of honor” on this trip and graciously accepted the flag which will be added to his growing collection of items he has received as an American hero. As the flag was being presented, Mark Morton, local Navy veteran and bagpiper, played two songs on the bagpipes and that immediately drew a large crowd. They visited the Lincoln Memorial, Korean War Memorial, Vietnam Memorial (The Wall), the World War II Memorial, Washington Monument, White House, U.S. Capitol, Jefferson Memorial and the Na-

Exercises for people with arthritis
A
Flexibility exercises
rthritis can make physical activity more difficult. In spite of that difficulty, exercise is an important part of staying healthy for men and women with arthritis. Even moderate physical activity can strengthen bones and muscles and increase joint flexibility, making it easier for arthritis sufferers to perform daily tasks. According to the Arthritis Foundation, men and women with arthritis should commit to regular exercise that includes three types of activities: flexibility exercises, strengthening exercises and cardiovascular exercises. Consult a physician before beginning any exercise regimen, and discuss any limitations your specific condition might place on your physical abilities. Such limitations might diminish as your exercise regimen progresses, but it's important to exercise within those limitations at the onset to avoid injuries. It's also important to consult your physician should you experience a flare-up of arthritis before, during or after exercise. Such flare-ups might require you to alter your routine, and your physician can help with such alterations.
Perform flexibility exercises every day, as they will protect your joints by reducing injury risk. Flexibility exercises, which are often referred to as range-of-motion exercises, help your body warm up for more strenuous exercise. Once you're comfortable doing at least 15 continuous minutes of flexibility exercises, you're likely ready to add strengthening and cardiovascular exercises to your routine. Many people with arthritis find yoga is an especially effective flexibility exercise, as it strengthens and relaxes stiff muscles and even aids in weight-loss efforts. Just don't push yourself too hard when starting out with yoga, as the exercises are more difficult than they might seem.
Strengthening exercises
Strong muscles reduce stress on the joints, something that's especially helpful to arthritis sufferers. Strengthening exercises, also known as resistance exercises, build the body's muscles so they're more capable of absorbing shock and more effective at preventing injury to the joints. When performing strengthening exercises, you will use weight or resistance to make the muscles work

harder and grow stronger. Isometric strengthening exercises tighten the muscles without moving the joints, while isotonic strengthening exercises strengthen the muscles by moving the joints. The Arthritis Foundation recommends performing strengthening exercises every other day and always in conjunction with flexibility exercises, which can be performed before and after strengthening exercises.
Cardiovascular exercises
Walking, dancing, swimming and bicycling are examples of cardiovascular, or aerobic, exercises, which many people find the most enjoyable way to exercise. Cardiovascular exercises make the heart, lungs, blood vessels and
muscles work more efficiently while improving endurance and strengthening bones. Initially, cardiovascular exercises might be difficult for arthritis sufferers who have not exercised in a while. However, you can gradually build toward 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercise three to four times per week, and you will notice your endurance improves the more you commit and stick to your routine. Include cardiovascular exercises as part of your larger routine, performing some type of aerobic exercise after strengthening exercises. More information on exercising for people with arthritis can be found at www.arthritis.org.

Senior Source
Dear Senior Source, Q. There have been many deaths and sudden changes in my life recently and they have got me thinking. I would like to try and organize my important papers so if something happens to me, my loved ones will know where to find them. I know that I need to keep my Will and financial statements together, but what else do I need to keep in mind? Is there an item that can make the whole process a little easier? A. I am sorry to hear of your losses, and I hope that some of the changes have been positive ones. Times like these really do make us reflect about things we should do differently and prepare for the unexpected. Keeping a list of vital documents and notifying someone where they are located is a great way to prepare for the future. Often people are overcome with grief after a loved one's passing and start looking frantically for documents. A centrally located file with a list of where everything is can be an awesome comfort for those left behind. A last Will and Testament along with financial papers are a great start, , but there are many other documents to keep in mind. Below is a list of important documents to be taken into account from Planning for Aging: A Practical Guide:

If everything is kept in one place, then there may be less confusion later. There are a couple of resources available from LifeTime Resources that can help you with this process.

PAGE 5 I knew better than that. Ray and I will tell you that tithing our money and our time has brought many blessing to our home. 9. Thou shall not pass anything but praise to Pastor Mary. If concerns arise, take them to the duly appointed members of the church. If you stick with the praise, you don’t have to worry about reporting anything. However, if you really think the concern hurts the church take it to the person appointed to deal with it. Personally, I seek out the positive. 10. Last, most of all, thou shall trust God, and stay connected to Him; draw strength from Him for God will never leave or forsake His church. I will end with a wish of good blessings on all new pastors and their congregations.
5. Thou shall not say that the good old days were better. One thing that seems to come with old age is looking back at the past with rosecolored glasses. Not me, I can find lots of good in the world today. 6. Thou shall not create divisions, but unify with thy brothers and sister. We are getting serious here. See commandment 9. 7. Thou shall not come to Pastor Mary with your demands, pressure, complaints, bad reports, manipulations, threats, unsolicited advice or snide remarks. Instead, ask how may I you help her. Wouldn’t it be wonderful? 8. Thou shall give the best that you can. Money. Time. Doris Butt is a retired teacher, Talent.

barrier in 1947 along with other spacecrafts from the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs. The last visit of the day was at Arlington National Cemetery where their bus was escorted to the Amphitheater and they were able to visit the grave site of veteran and movie star, Audie Murphy. They were able to watch the Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknowns and then four of them were chosen to place the wreath at the tomb. “It’s such an honor to walk on this hallowed ground where very few people get to set foot. This is one of the most respected pieces of ground on U.S. soil,” said Vietnam veteran and trip coordinator P.G. Gentrup. Brett Bondurant, a Purple Heart recipient and his grandpa, Jerry Bondurant, 101st Airborne, were the front two participants who actually set the wreath in place. The other two who assisted were Ebbie Roberts, a Vietnam Marine and Purple Heart recipient and Walt Bryant, U.S. Army retired, who received three Bronze Stars and two Purple Hearts in Vietnam.

lated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Use a large whisk or silicone spatula to stir thoroughly. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thick. Remove from the heat and pour into a fine-mesh strainer set over a bowl. Use a spatula to push it through the strainer to remove any lumps. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface to keep a skin from forming. Chill completely. 6. When the custard is cold, whip the heavy cream to medium peaks in a chilled medium bowl using an electric mixer. Fold the whipped cream and remaining 1 cup chopped apricots into the custard. Pour into the prepared baking pan and freeze for 8 hours. 7. When ready to assemble the sandwiches, remove the peanut butter bread from its pan and cut into 12 squares. Slice the squares in half horizontally, so you have a top and a bottom. Cut the semifreddo into 12 squares the same size as the squares of peanut butter bread. For each sandwich, place a square of semifreddo on the bottom of the bread, then put the top on. Cut the ice cream sandwich in half, just like Mom did with your peanut butter sandwich. Eat immediately, or tuck the sandwiches into large freezer bags. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
To make the peanut butter bread: 1. Preheat the oven to 325 F. Butter a 9 x 13-inch baking pan. 2. In a medium bowl, using a wooden spoon, stir together the butter, both sugars, and the peanut butter and vanilla until creamy. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add this to the butter mixture all at once and stir until it is combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool completely in the pan. To make the apricot semifreddo: 3. Line a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with plastic wrap. 4. In a heavy stainless steel pot over medium-high heat, bring 1 cup of the chopped apricots, 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract, the lemon juice, and 1 cup water to a boil. Turn the heat down to medium and simmer until the mixture is reduced by half. Remove from the heat. Using an immersion blender or very carefully transferring the mixture to a standing blender, blend until smooth. 5. Return the puree to the pot and add the milk. Scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean halves into the mixture and add the egg yolks and the remaining 1/2 cup granu-

Watery eyes can mean dry eyes
My eyes seem to water all of the time, and yet my doctor has told me that I have "dry eyes". Does this make any sense?
Signed, Confused
Dear Confused,
Our eyes are very complex structures that require constant lubrication for them to function properly. The lubrication itself is produced by various tissues within and around the eye. S p e c i f i c a l l y, we have lacrimal gland tissue that contributed most of the "watery" portion of our tears, meibomian glands provide most of the oily components and finally mucin cells produce the mucus in our tears. Only when each of these ingredients is in the proper proportion do our eyes remain properly lubricated and moist. Lack of any one or combination of these components yeilds a less than ideally lubricated eye also known as a "dry eye." The poorly lubricated eye will then send an "SOS" signal via the brain to the various tear producing areas to produce more tears; yet the resulting tears are still missing the appropriate ingredients for proper lubrication. This communication loop will continue and excessive, ineffective

tears will be produced. Unfortunately, in spite of all this wetness, vital ingredients are still missing from the tears and so the eyes remain poorly lubricated or "dry". Consequently, the treatment of choice often is to provide supplemental lubrication in the form of artificial tears to the eyes involved. In this way the eye will become better lubricated Dr. and will not send it’s SOS signal to Ira the brain thereby Younger ending the terrible loop providing tears. I r o n i c a l l y, t h e "dryest" eyes around are sometimes the wettest in appearance and our treatment of theses wet "dry" eyes is by adding more moisture in the form of artificial tears to the involved eye. Of course, there are many other causes of tearing and a well trained eye care professional can help sort out the cause and therefore recommend its treatment.

Did you know? Breast cancer is a disease that affects thousands of people each year. According to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, 226,870 new cases of invasive breast cancer in women will be diagnosed this year (including new cases of primary breast cancer among survivors but not the recurrence of original breast cancer among survivors). There also will be 63,300 new cases of in situ breast cancer (including ductal carcinoma in situ, or DCIS, and lobular carcinoma in situ, or LCIS). It is estimated that there will be 39,510 breast cancer deaths in 2012. Although breast cancer is rare among men, there are still cases that occur each year. It is estimated that there will be 2,190 new cases of breast cancer cases in men, and there could be 410 breast cancer deaths.
