Sudoku Challenge
Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes.

THE CARING CENTER Q. Our family dog is aging and we know it will hit our preschooler hard when the dog does pass away. How should we handle the situation? A. The death of a beloved pet is never going to be easy for anyone. Our pets become like family to us and saying goodbye is difficult. Honesty is important. Have simple conversations about the fact that the dog is older and not able to do everything they once did. Talk about the long, happy life the animal has had and about pets you or others had in the past. Share fond memories of those pets to help your child understand the joy that is part of the whole “circle of life” too. Don’t dwell on the inevitable outcome, but when the time comes, be honest and comforting.
term means?
A. So, what do pets need from their humans to experience a “good” life? If we provide
our pets with food, shelter, and freedom from pain – is that enough? I occasionally see a dog that is fed, tied to a chain in the back yard, and provided with a dog house – are basic needs really being met for this dog? Most pets in our society live indoors with us, eat well (perhaps too well), and are very comfortable – surely that is a good life. Right? Pet enrichment involves the idea that a pet’s caretakers not only should minimize its negative experiences but simultaneously provide opportunities for positive experiences. The reason for doing this is that an animal can experience stress, frustration and Dr. Barney Smith boredom if its routine is too predictable and it has little control over its environment. Daily exercise, varied routine, and opportunities for play are all important parts of enrichment for your pet. We are blessed with many great dog parks and day care facilities in our area that can provide mental and physical stimulation. Clever food and play toys are available for many types of pets. One of the coolest things about pet enrichment is this: as we provide enrichment for our pets, we are enriching our own life experience, too!

Q. Do you grind your teeth? A. Teeth grinding/clenching can be caused by multiple things.
Q. What should I do to get my home ready for winter?
Untreated clenching/grinding can lead to a variety of problems ranging from worn teeth, broken teeth, loose teeth and bone loss. We also see jaw pains, headaches or TMJ disorders when symptoms flair up. Teeth loss can and does occur from clenching/grinding. A dentist can evaluate your teeth and review types of mouth guards/night guards that can be worn to counter the forces and wear on the teeth, jaws and muscles. If you suspect that you or a partner grinds/clenches their teeth, contact us for an evaluation.

HEATING/COOLING
service? First be sure that the thermostat is in the heat position and the temperature is set above the indoor temperature. Next, check for power at the furnace by turning the fan switch (on the thermostat) to the on position. If the furnace blower does not turn on, check the circuit breaker for the furnace and the switch at the furnace, to ensure they are on. Also check the air filter to ensure it is clean. If you have LP gas or oil heat, ensure that you have sufficient fuel. Some LP gas furnaces have pressure switches that will not allow the furnace to run if the tank is low on fuel. Even though the water heater sitting right next to the furnace lights and runs, the pressure may be too low to allow the furnace to light. If you have a high efficiency gas furnace with pvc vent pipes, be sure that the piping is clear of obstructions such as snow, birds or rodent nests. Also look to see if there are any flashing diagnostic lights on your furnace. For all your heating and air conditioning questions, contact Dave at OK Heating and Air Conditioning.
Q. How important is it to warm up before beginning an exercise program? A. The warm-up portion of an exercise routine, which typically occurs within the first
5-10 minutes of activity, is more important than one may realize. A typical warm-up routine may include general upper and lower extremity stretching with large movement patterns and deep breathing, as well as a simpler form of the exercise you will begin (i.e. walking with large strides and long arm swings before jogging). Benefits of a warming up include: reduced risk of injury, increased blood flow, increased neuromuscular synaptic activity, improved viscosity of the synovial fluid of the joint lining, and initiating the aerobic portion Susan Armstrong, MPT of exercise. Aerobic exercise (use of the body’s oxygen supply for building endurance and Physical Therapist cardiovascular response), as well as anaerobic exercise (use of energy stores within the body for strength training and increasing muscular tone), are both required to provide a balanced fitness program. Including a warm-up (and cool down) portion of an exercise program will allow for a safer and more effective workout. Contact Stellar Rehab if you have additional questions on an exercise program that will assist you in meeting your exercise goals.

Q. Are there any natural ways to prevent a cold? A. Our immune system is our natural defense against dis-
ease including cold, flu, and sinus infections. The best way to maintain a healthy immune system is by minimizing stress. Moderate exercise, a healthy diet low in processed carbohydrates and sugars, and adequate sleep of at least 7 hours per Jill Unwin, Lee Unwin, night are things that you can do daily to keep your body up to DC, CCEP BCMT, CSCS the task of fighting off illness. Additionally, research studies find chiropractic adjustments and massage therapy to be mutually beneficial in prevention by supporting our immune systems. Chiropractic adjustments increase our bodies’ immunoglobulin A levels while massage therapy increases levels of our “killer cells” known as lymphocytes, with both treatments decreasing levels of cortisol (a major component of stress). All of these tools combined will make you a healthier individual so even if you catch that cold you will be on a pathway to a more rapid recovery.

PHYSICAL THERAPY
Q. My furnace is not working. Is there anything I should do before calling for A.
It is most commonly associated with stress and anxiety and often occurs during sleep. Age can play a factor, as can an uneven bite, missing teeth and even back or neck pains. Clenching, much like snoring, can be difficult to identify because people may not know that it occurs or do not realize the signs or symptoms. Your dentist can help diagnose teeth clenching/grinding by looking for signs of teeth wear, notching of enamel at the gum line, teeth chips or fracture lines and sometimes muscle pains, teeth sensitivities or headaches.

1 - Disconnect your exterior hoses – Leaving a hose connected can trap water in the stem of your hose bib which will eventually freeze and crack. 2 - Change the batteries in your carbon monoxide and smoke detectors – a carbon monoxide detector could save your life if a gas burning appliance such as your furnace or water heater is not operating or venting properly. 3 - Have your furnace or boiler inspected – I’ve had 2 furnaces in rental units cause problems this fall. It’s always a good idea to make sure these are tuned up, cleaned, and in good working order before we really need them. Keith & Kinsey Schulz 4 - Clean your gutters – A clogged gutter will build up with ice faster and make any ice damming problems worse. Real Estate Team 5 - Inspect your chimney or gas fireplace vent – If you have a wood burning fire place it’s good to make sure your flue is in safe operating condition. If you have a gas fireplace, check your vent, it’s a common place for birds to build nests. 6 - Reverse your ceiling fans – If your fans blow upward during the winter, this will push the warmer air off the ceiling and you won’t feel the cold draft.

“vehicles” on the roadway. That means bicyclists must obey the rules of the road…” Bicyclists should know and follow those rules to reduce their risk of being involved in a crash. Many crashes occur when motorists do not see the bicyclist and turn into the path of the bicycle. Without the armor of a motor vehicle, bicyclists are extremely vulnerable to severe bodily injury and in the worst cases, death. There are simple safety Attorney measures bicyclists should consider to reduce those risks. Some include: not to ride Gail Groy side by side on the road, not to wear headphones or anything that can distract from your ability to see and hear, wear a helmet that is properly fitted, and have your bike regularly serviced to ensure it is safe to ride. Many accidents occur because the bicycle parts are worn or need replacing. Take a course on “cycling on the roadway.” Wear reflectors and have working lights on your bike. If you are involved In a crash, call the cops, take photographs of all the vehicles involved, gather names and address of witnesses and seek medical care for your injuries.

follow Thanksgiving. But did you know that Giving Tuesday is observed on Nov. 28? It’s a good time to begin your charitable giving for the holiday season. You can always give cash to a charitable organization. If the group has received tax-exempt status, your gift can offer you a tax deduction, too. If you have stocks that have grown significantly in value, you may want to donate them to a charitable group. You will be allowed a charitable deduction for your gift, and you’ll avoid the capital gains taxes you’d have to pay if you sold the stocks, provided you’ve held them for at least a year. You can also extend your gift-giving to your children or grandchildren by contributing to a 529 college savings plan, which offers high contribution limits and potential tax advantages. Through your gifts to charitable groups and your family members, you can take the Brendon Diers, AAMS® spirit of Giving Day and extend it throughout the holiday season – and even beyond.

recover in 1-2 weeks from the flu, others develop serious lung infections. This type of flu complication can land one in the hospital, and also lead to Pneumonia, Bronchitis and other serious infections. More than 60% of seasonal flu-related hospitalizations and 90% of related deaths occur in people 65 years and older. The flu is a greater concern for the elderly because, as we get older, our immune system becomes weaker. This makes it easier for seniors to get the flu, and much more difficult to fight off complications from it. Ask your doctor if you should get a flu shot and when to get it. You can go to your local clinic or even the local pharmacy to receive your flu shot. Now’s the time to set up your flu shot appointment because most medical experts recommend you get a flu shot in November. In general the ‘flu season’ begins in December and can last until spring. If you wait until the midst of flu season to get a shot, these antibodies in the flu shot won’t have enough time to develop immunity from the flu. According to the National Institution on Aging, Medicare will pay for a flu shot.
