Stop Men Dying Too Young And Join The Movement For Men’s Health With The Movember Foundation

The current state of men’s health is in crisis. Too many men are dying too young; on average six years younger than women. Today, the Movember Foundation, launches its 2016 campaign to Mo Bro’s and Mo Sista’s across the nation, encouraging men and women to raise funds for men’s health and stop men dying too young.

This Movember the Foundation is challenging men to Grow a moustache, or for both men and women to Move and make a commitment to get active, or Host an event. Choose how you’ll get involved, spread the word, start a conversation, and have fun while doing good.

“We are extremely happy to embark on another moustache-filled Movember this year and get others to join the fight to help stop men dying too young,” said Mark Hedstrom, SVP of Global Operations at the Movember Foundation. “Many of our fathers, partners, brothers and friends are facing a health crisis in the areas of prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health, and without people talking, and taking action, nothing will change. The Movember Foundation understands this, and by sparking conversations and engaging with men where they are, we hope to drive this change.”

The Movember Foundation wants men alive, well and enjoying life.

Since 2003, the Foundation has raised more than $710 million and funded 1,200 breakthrough men’s health projects in 21 countries for prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention, while positively challenging the way in which men’s health issues are addressed.

Men are dying too young, and the rates of these casualties are staggering: Prostate Cancer: In the U.S., prostate cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in men in the United States. Statistics show that 1 in 7 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.

Testicular Cancer: Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in young men aged 15-34. And, unfortunately, the rate of men diagnosed with testicular cancer has doubled in the last 50 years. About 8,720 new cases of testicular cancer are diagnosed in men each year.

Mental Health: Untreated mental health conditions can carry a high risk for suicide among men. More than three times as many men as women die by suicide in the U.S. And on average 87 men each day take their life by suicide.

The Movember Foundation is committed to keeping things fresh, keeping the community informed, and remaining transparent and

accountable in its practices. To learn more about the men’s health programs the Movember Foundation is funding visit us.movember.com/ report-cards.

Movember draws support from across all areas, including that of the entertainment industry. Foundation ambassadors use their influential voices to start conversations that encourage people to join the movement. Some of Movember’s ambassadors for the 2016 campaign season include Ian Somerhalder, Colman Domingo, Barry Sloane, James Wolk, Aldis Hodge, Jason O’Mara, Aaron Diaz, Sinqua Walls, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Ellen K, Jonathan Kite and Katrina Law. Join the movement for men’s health by signing up to Grow, Move or Host at Movember.com. The Movember Foundation wouldn’t be where it is without the enthusiasm of men and women around the world.

Be sure to connect with Movember on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube and follow the campaign on social media, with the hashtag #Movember.

About the Movember Foundation The Movember Foundation is the only charity tackling men’s health on a global scale, year round. We run awareness and fundraising activities, with the annual Movember campaign in November being globally

Chris Pine supporting Movember recognized for its fun, disruptive approach to getting men to take action for their health. During Movember, men and women around the world raise funds by growing or supporting a moustache, getting physically active, or by hosting or an event. Not only do these commitments raise vital funds, they also generate powerful and often life-changing conversations. Millions have joined the movement, raising $710M to help us fund more than 1,200 men’s health projects focusing on prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention.

We have one goal: to stop men dying too young. For more information please visit Movember.com.

5 easy ways to reduce digital eyestrain Technology can be beautiful thing.

It has expanded our worlds and our minds, connecting people in a way they’ve never been before.

But if you’re regularly using mobile devices, it’s possible you’re one of 70 percent of U.S. adults who suffer from digital eyestrain. And if you’re using technology before bed, you’re probably suffering from the sleep- and heath-altering effects of blue light.

Blue light, which helps us see digital screens clearly in the daytime, is emitted from things you use every day: cell phones, tablets, laptop and desktop computers, and even TVs and digital billboards. And consistent exposure can cause disruptions in your circadian rhythm and sleep patterns, especially if you’re exposed to blue light before bedtime. The poor sleep quality caused by these disruptions has been associated with a myriad of health issues, from diabetes to heart disease.

Our technology consumption isn’t expected to decline anytime soon, but we still need our eyes to function properly to experience and interact with the world. Below are some tips that can help you maintain your health while using modern technology: Make sure you have the right tools.

For those who wear glasses or any kind of vision correction solution, Carl Zeiss Vision created an entire portfolio of products to help users maintain optimal eye health while interacting with our digital world. From Digital Lens, which helps to combat digital eyestrain and support screen viewing, to Duravision BlueProtect which is specifically designed to protect against blue and violet light waves, these solutions help users better and more comfortably view the world.

Put your phone down before bed.

Avoid looking at bright screens two to three hours before bed so your body and eyes can “power down,” and

help you start the essential nightly restoration process that is sleep.

Hack your sleep.

When sleeping, try to make sure all digital devices are completely off. Sleeping in a completely dark room has been shown to improve recovery and restoration from the day’s activities, allowing you to feel more rested in the morning.

Get out in the sun.

Exposing yourself to lots of bright

light during the day will acclimate your body to the cycle of being alert and present throughout the day, and improve your body’s ability to sleep at night.

Go for the 20-20-20 solution.

Every 20 minutes, look away from your screen for 20 seconds and focus on something that’s 20 feet away.

This gives your eyes time to adjust and refocus, reducing fatigue. - (BPT)

life is like a moustache.

It can be wonderful or ter rible But it always tickles ! ~Groucho Mar x

G e a r i n g c o l l e g e g r ads u p f o r t h e w o r kf o r c e

The job market doesn’t appear to be as tight as it was a year ago. Even so, finding a job remains a tough challenge for new college graduates who are eager to begin their careers.For those facing the challenge of finding employment today, advice gleaned from two collegiate professionals can help. “This is the time to think out of the box,” says Amanda Rajotte, director of career services at Brown Mackie College Hopkinsville. “I encourage students to focus on employment goals early in the program.”

The prepared candidate is a step ahead “Good verbal skills, the ability to embrace change, and being a team player can catch a prospective e m p l o y e r ’s a t t e n t i o n , ” s a y s Grace Klinefelter, of the Business & Organizational Leadership program chair at Argosy University, Washington DC. “Companies look for candidates with problem-solving and analytical skills, too.” Think about these questions: What can I bring to a company? Why should they choose me? Writing your own answers to these essential questions is a good way to prepare for a job search. The exercise can provide valuable insight that may help shape your responses to future interview questions.

Take a hands-on approach Rajotte’s job as director of career services entails a constant search for employment opportunities to help graduates of many different academic programs. She honed her job-seeking skills when she moved to Kentucky,

where she knew no one, and needed to find work herself. “I fully support a proactive, hands-on approach,” she says. “It is never too early to begin networking.” She encourages students to interact with professionals in the field as much as possible.

Maintain alumni contacts She counsels students to attend networking events with people who are a year ahead in the academic program. “Those students will have a position by the time the others graduate. It’s as important to build relationships with those about to enter your field as it is with people already working. Referrals can come from both sources,” Rajotte says. Word of mouth can be powerful. Even if the person you have stopped to chat with isn’t in a position to help, you never know if they have a friend who is looking to fill a spot.

Join professional associations Much can be accomplished simply by knowing people. Klinefelter relates the true story of one Argosy University student who panicked at the thought of facing her search for employment.

“She had already fulfilled the requirements for graduation, yet wanted to take more courses. I encouraged her to join a professional association connected to her field,” she says. “Once she connected with her professional group, she landed a job with the association. It’s about having the right attitude and looking forward instead of back,” says Klinefelter.

Visit the local chamber of commerce

“This is something I did when I moved here,” says Rajotte. “I reached out and got in contact with the different committees they run.” The meetings offered the opportunity to meet with executives from some of the larger corporations in the community, and let them know she was new in town, with specific qualifications. “This became a successful network that was useful.

One community leader was willing to send a letter of introduction for me,” Rajotte says.

Attend community events It isn’t necessary to wait for a local networking event to happen.

Developing relationships means putting yourself out there and letting people know your professional intentions. “It’s a way for students and graduates to find out about local organizations they can join, as well

as employment opportunities,” says Rajotte.

Volunteer efforts offer mutual benefits Vo l u n t e e r w o r k p r o v i d e s experience. “Our medical assistant students volunteer at a local free clinic. Help is always needed, and it gives them real-world experience beyond the externship in the career field,” says Rajotte. “It’s a great way to get professional references.”

College campuses also provide volunteer opportunities. “Students can demonstrate capabilities by volunteering to work with faculty on special projects, as well as outside activities,” says Klinefelter. Even volunteer activities outside of your field of study can be beneficial. You never know who is painting or planting flowers beside you. - (BPT)

it is that time of year again. How to Play Fantasy Football Once relegated only to the nerds and stat geeks, fantasy football has become a mainstream hobby enjoyed each season by nearly 30 million U.S. adults and is widely credited with the country’s increased interest in the NFL. It has become just as common to hear people talk about their fantasy football teams at family gatherings and at the office as it is to hear them talk about the weather. The game has given new meaning to Sunday football and has added a fun twist to the NFL season.

The basic concept behind fantasy football is to assemble a virtual team of real NFL players. You are the “owner” or “manager” of your team and compete in a league generally comprised of between 8 and 16 teams although 10 - 12 teams is most common. The other “owners” can be friends, family, co-workers, or complete strangers. Fantasy points are accumulated based upon the actual statistics of the players on your team. You compete each week against someone else in your league and the person who has the most fantasy points at the end of the week is the winner for that week. The teams with the best records at the end of the fantasy season make it to the playoffs and eventually the top two face each other in the Super Bowl (generally Week 16 of the NFL season).

Draft Your Team Perhaps the most fun time of the season is Draft Day. This is the day that everyone picks the players for their team. The goal is to select the players that you think will be the most productive over the course of the season. In standard leagues, teams are comprised of 1 quarterback (QB), 2 running backs (RB), 3 wide receivers (WR), 1 tight-end (TE), 1 kicker (K), and 1 defense/special teams (DST).

Owners take turns picking NFL players and an NFL player can only be on 1 team at a time. For example, if you have the first pick and take Adrian Peterson from Minnesota with that pick, nobody else can have him.

Drafting a solid team is imperative to winning a league. Never go into your draft without preparing yourself with player projections and rankings.

Virtually every league management program (CBSSports.com, NFL. com, ESPN.com) has some sort of rankings built in, but you can also check out fantasy football rankings from sites like Fantasy Football Nerd and FF Toolbox.

In addition to your starting lineup, you will draft anywhere from 7 to 15 additional players. These players are referred to as your “bench”.

During the season you can replace your starting lineup with one of your

bench players depending on match up or injury.

If this is your first year playing the game and you want to win, the best advice is to avoid the newbie pitfall of drafting players from your favorite team well before anyone else would have. Use the rankings and projections from your research or your league’s software to help you make informed drafting decisions. Taking a kicker from your favorite team with your first pick might guarantee you the opportunity to cheer for him all season long but it seriously reduces your chances of winning games.

Scoring Systems In order to draft well, you will need to know your league’s scoring system.

Most leagues will have standard scoring (below), but some have extra twists. You may hear the acronym “PPR” which stands for “point per reception”. In PPR leagues, players earn a point for every catch. You may also hear the term “bonus points”.

This refers to extra points given to players when they achieve certain thresholds. For example, Drew Brees might earn you an additional 5 points if he throws for 300 or more yards in a game.

Most standard scoring leagues award points for the following: * 1 point for every 10 rushing yards * 1 point for every 10 receiving yards * 1 point for every 25 passing yards * 6 points for every rushing/ receiving TD * 4 points for every passing TD * 1 point for every extra point kicked successfully * 3 points for every field goal kicked successfully * 1 point for every reception (PPR leagues only) Playing The Game Now that you have drafted a team of players, your league will create your schedule of match ups for the season. Each week you will compete against someone else where the two of you will attempt to “start” the best performing team. For example, if you drafted 3 quarterbacks and your league requires you to start 1, you need to decide each week which of those 3 QB’s will be starting and which 2 will remain on your bench.

Bench players do not accumulate points for your team so your job is to determine who has the best chance of putting up the best stats. This may seem easy enough, but once the season is underway and injuries and on-field match ups become factors, the “sit/start” decisions can truly be difficult. If you’ve been paying attention to the season, some of these choices may force you to question

yourself and flip-flop back and forth right up until kickoff. Making the right decision is incredibly rewarding, particularly if it results in a win for you that week!

Looking for help with your weekly lineup decisions? You won’t have to look far. There are literally thousands of websites from which to choose for fantasy football advice, rankings, projections, news, and more. Every major league platform has rankings to help you. Some sites like FantasyFootballNerd.com aggregate fantasy football rankings from multiple sources and combine them into one easy to use consensus. NFL Network and ESPN have dedicated fantasy football TV shows. You can find free pod casts from thousands of independent sites.

Check the newsstand for magazines.

The library will have fantasy football books. Sirius/XM Radio even has a dedicated channel for fantasy sports.

It won’t be hard to find a plethora of advice and options.

Trades and Waiver Wire Injuries (both temporary and longlasting) are a near certainty in the NFL. When you combine injuries with the fact that not all of your players will live up to your expectations and other players who perform well above their low/no expectations (commonly referred to as “sleepers”), there is a very high chance that the team you have at the end of the year will not be the same team that you drafted. As an owner, you will want to upgrade your team when and where you can.

As an example, let’s imagine that you have 3 good quarterbacks and 2 average/below-average tight ends.

Another owner in your league has poorly performing quarterbacks and 2 great/good tight ends. In this scenario, it would be a good idea to propose a trade of one of your quarterbacks

for one of his/her tight ends. Trades are one way to upgrade your team.

The most common place to look for upgrades will be the waiver wire which is simply the term given to players who are not owned by anyone else. You can “pick up” one of these players at anytime during the season but you will be required to “drop” one of your existing players. If for example one of your running backs sustains a season-ending injury, it is no longer in your best interest to keep him on your team as he will no longer be playing. You can drop that player onto the waiver wire and pick up a replacement. This also can be done for players who have not lived up to expectations, particularly if there are better players available on the wire. Check your league for the rules on the waiver wire order. When the waiver wire opens up each week, some leagues have rules indicating who gets to pick and in what order. If two or more owners are all trying to get the same player, the waiver wire order determines which owner can lay claim to that player.

Commissioner The commish job is perhaps the most under-appreciated job in the league but someone has to be in charge. The commish determines the rules of the league, organizes the draft date/time, and serves as mediator in all disputes within the league. If your league is playing for money, the commish is usually responsible for holding onto the money and handling the payouts at the end of the season.

The best way to learn to play the game is to jump right in. Grab a bunch of your friends and family or join a free public league. Once you’ve mastered the basics you will never watch an NFL game the same way again!

Jingle Bell Run Holiday-Costumed Participants Join the Cause to Raise Funds and Awareness for Arthritis

The 2016 Jingle Bell Run for arthritis is bringing holiday cheer to Orange County and the Inland Empire on December 4th with the goal of raising $175,000 this year.

As hundreds of people gather at Laguna Niguel Regional Park to join the movement to conquer arthritis, this annual, holiday-themed 5K run encourages participants to dress in festive costumes and get out and moving as well as raise awareness and funds to cure America’s #1 cause of disability.

Taking place in more than 100 cities nationwide, the Arthritis Foundation’s Jingle Bell Run helps the one in five Americans, including 300,000 children, living with arthritis pain every day. From funding cuttingedge research for new treatments and ultimately a cure to advocating for health care access, the Arthritis Foundation helps the 50 million Americans living with arthritis score everyday victories, one step at a time.

“Every dollar raised during our Jingle Bell Run events makes it possible for us to provide life-changing information and resources, access to

optimal care, advances in science and strengthen community connections,” said Ann Palmer, Arthritis Foundation president and CEO. “The Arthritis Foundation is here to serve everyone affected by this disease – individuals, their families and the health care professionals who help them. Your generous support helps us chart a winning course, so that more people can say Yes to a better life.”

The Orange County and Inland Empire Jingle Bell Run will feature local honorees that embody the Arthritis Foundation’s Champion of Yes spirit. Violet Gutierrez, the Young Adult Honoree, has lived with rheumatoid arthritis for 11 years now.

After being diagnosed at 8 years old, Violet attended the Arthritis Foundation’s Camp Esperanza that summer. Camp Esperanza was established to remind Violet and other kids suffering from arthritis that they are not alone in their struggles.

Not long after, Violet was positively impacted by her experiences at Camp Esperanza and as a result, decided to become a major advocate in promoting the Arthritis Foundation’s

mission and efforts.

Violet Gutierrez is one of 5.9 million people in California living with arthritis. Through fundraisers like the Jingle Bell Run, the Arthritis Foundation is able to invest in local and national programs that benefit those in your community affected by arthritis.

The Jingle Bell Run is nationally sponsored by Advil, AbbVie, Massage Envy and Ferring Pharmaceuticals while being regionally sponsored by Janssen. Mission Heritage Medical Group is this year’s Jingle to Inspire Sponsor with other local sponsors including Amica Insurance, Central Communications, and Horizon Pharma. To learn more and register for the Orange County and Inland Empire event, visit www.jbr.org/OCIE, or contact the Arthritis Foundation at 949-585-0201.

About the Arthritis Foundation The Arthritis Foundation is the Champion of Yes. Leading the fight for the arthritis community, the Foundation helps conquer everyday battles through life-changing information and resources, access

Violet Gutierrez to optimal care, advancements in science and community connections.

The Arthritis Foundation’s goal is to chart a winning course, guiding families in developing personalized plans for living a full life – and making each day another stride towards a cure. The Foundation also publishes Arthritis Today, the award-winning magazine that reaches 4 million readers.

Mission Gala Raises $550,000 at Dazzling Benefit EVENT

The San Clemente News

Clark Beckham in concert Photos by: Lisa Renee Photography Over 450 guests supported the Mission Preservation Foundation’s beautiful Romance of the Mission benefit gala featuring a remarkable concert by season XIV American Idol finalist Clark Beckham. The annual fundraiser had gross proceeds at over $550,000 (net proceeds at $236,000), while honoring longtime community partners The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel.

A cocktail party prior to the event started everyone off with passed appetizers and adult libations while guests could walk the San Juan Capistrano Mission grounds breathing in its beauty with the flowers in full bloom. Guests walked to the Ruins of the Great Stone Church that was decorated with inspirational lighting with various hues of colors fitting for the concert featuring Beckham.

Prior to the music starting, Mission San Juan Executive Director Mechelle Lawrence Adams shared inspiring remarks during a short program, “As a new year of priorities, changes, challenges and opportunities will unfold before us, I believe the Romance of the Mission gala is the foundation from which we spring board to action and care… in the spirit of community and tradition we come together. To be mesmerized, swept away, inspired and reminded that beauty is right here in the center of historic downtown and that collectively you all have made the Mission what it is today.”

Mission Preservation President George O’Connell with Ritz-Carlton, Honored during the program was The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel – Laguna Niguel GM Bruce Brainerd they were recognized for the 13 years they’ve supported the benefit gala.

Mission Preservation Foundation board member and Ritz-Carlton General Manager Bruce Brainerd accepted the award presented by board chair George O’Connell.

The concert began; Beckham’s explosive performance spanned several musical genres including renditions of Georgia, Hallelujah duet with vocalist Chanelle Ray and a benefit gala tradition, When the Swallows Come Back to Capistrano. I talked to Beckman after the concert about his thoughts about performing at this unique location, “Performing in the sacred grounds of the Ruins of The Great Stone Church was the greatest honor of my life,” he said.

Official Mission bell ringer Nathan Banda rang the historic Mission bells to mark the end of the concert and to further celebrate the evening. Guests were escorted to the Mission’s Central Courtyard for the dinner celebration of the evening.

The decorations were just exquisite with an elegant Spanish theme in bright colors of orange and pink inspired by an image courtesy of the Irvine Museum Collection, Frank H. Myers (1899-1956) Fiesta in Old Monterey.

The original painting was displayed in the Resurgam viewable to guests as they made their way from the concert into the Courtyard with one-of-a-kind décor of colorful lanterns overhead and tables set for a gourmet plated Mechelle Lawrence Adams with Clark Beckham with Kelly Monsignor Michael McKiernan four-course candlelight dinner masterfully prepared and served by The Bennett Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel The Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange Bishop Kevin Vann led the invocation prior to dinner. Later, guests raised their glasses in a toast to The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel and all past benefit gala honorees in attendance.

An opportunity drawing featured a Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel get-a-way, Montana Sporting Club experience and an 18K white and rose gold diamond cross donated by Jean-Jacques Mamie Fine Jewelry Known as the “Jewel of the Missions,” Mission San Juan Capistrano is a historic landmark and museum that boasts of quality permanent exhibits featuring original artifacts as well as traveling and temporary exhibits on a wide variety of topics.

Mission San Juan Capistrano is owned by the Diocese of Orange. Its fundraising entity, the Mission Preservation Foundation, is comprised of business and community leaders committed to ensuring the long-term preservation and viability of Orange County’s only Mission. The Mission receives no funding from either the Church or the State of California and must charge admission funds as a means of providing continued public access.

How to save big with last-minute vacation planning tips

Sometimes the vacation bug bites without much notice. If you find yourself craving a travel adventure in the near future, you might worry it will be too complicated or costly to plan without adequate time. But the truth is, sometimes last-minute trips offer the best opportunity to score big bargains, if you know where to find them.

There’s no need to ignore your lastminute itch for travel. Try a few travel tips and planning strategies to ensure your trip is not only memorable and stress-free, but saves you cash, too.

1. Skip air travel and save at the pump Last-minute plane tickets are costly, so for spontaneous trips, consider hitting the road instead. Pack up the car, RV or motorcycle and let the road be the gateway to your next great vacation. Download an app that tracks gas prices, like gasbuddy or Gas Guru -so you can always find the best price per gallon to cut down on fuel costs. Want better fuel economy?

Improve your gas mileage by up to 3.3 percent by keeping your tires inflated to the proper pressure, says the U.S. Department of Energy.

2. Uncover hidden gem locations Popular tourist towns with massive crowds will always cost more than

those hidden gems visited by fewer folks. Get destination inspiration on websites like www.LiveLifeLocal.com.

With a focus on car, RV, boat and motorcycle travel, the site - created by Safeco Insurance - makes it easy to search for fun destinations and routes by geography, vehicle and tags. You’ll find valuable content from authors and bloggers as well as everyday users passionate about travel.

3. Be flexible and ask for discounts If you can be flexible with travel dates, you might be able to score a last-minute deal. Booking accommodations for weekdays rather than weekends will save you cash, and often there’s more availability last-minute. If you know you want to travel in the near future, call hotels and campgrounds and see if they offer discount rates for open rooms/ sites. Often rates are reduced 24 to 48 hours prior, but you need to ask.

For hotels, a discounted room is better than a vacant room. For you, a fantastic deal awaits. Check out sites like Orbitz.com, Expedia.com or Booking.com.

4. Plan activities en route Getting there is half the fun when you plan stops along the way. When you’re short on time, go online to

map your route and discover unique places to stop along the road to your final destination. For example, LiveLifeLocal lets you map your route and suggests nearby activities. To help organize and plan your stops along the way, you can add your preferred activities to a “collection” on your online vacation portfolio. It’s a great way to quickly research and organize a last-minute vacation, plus it is free. Just add a title and save it for easy access, then share adventures on your favorite social media sites and make all your friends jealous.

5. Package and save When it comes to saving money,

package deals are a great way to ease a tight budget. Can you bundle activities together and purchase all your tickets for a deep discount?

Does your hotel offer any freebie activities to local attractions along with a reservation? Always ask about possible discounts and packaged savings so you can get the best deals throughout your last-minute trip.

Give in to the wanderlust and take that last-minute trip with confidence.

Whether you’re hitting the road solo or bringing the whole family along, a few simple strategies will ensure a trip to remember without breaking the bank.

Autumn edibles: Tips for fall gardening and second plantings People choose to garden for many reasons: Food is fresher and tastes better. It’s a healthy hobby that exercises the body. It saves money.

Numerous reports show an increasing number of homeowners are growing their own fruits, vegetables and herbs.

As summer’s end nears, you may think gardening season is over. The good news is with a few strategic tips, you can keep your green thumb going and enjoy a plethora of autumn edibles for months to come.

Step 1: Select second plantings Second plantings are the plants you use for the latter part of the gardening season. Late summer is typically the best time to plant these varieties. Call your local extension offices or access information online to find regionalized planting schedules and recommended plant varieties.

The length of the fall season and when the first frost will likely hit are important considerations when selecting second plantings. Keep in mind that fast-maturing vegetables are ideal for fall gardening and they should be planted early enough to reach maturity before the first frost arrives.

Popular second plantings that yield a delicious late fall/early winter harvest include broccoli, lettuce, turnips, collards, carrots, peas, radish, spinach, leeks and beets. Some people even claim root vegetables and cole crops like kale and turnips taste better after the first frost.

Step 2: Prepare your garden space If you plan to use your current garden space for

second plantings, remove the early-season plants that are done producing. Add those plants to your current compost bin or create a new compost pile with easy-to-use, stylish options from Outdoor Essentials. Wood-slate bins blend well with the outdoor aesthetic and the design allows oxygen to circulate and facilitate the composting process.

Next, prepare your garden space. Elevated garden beds are growing in popularity because they look great anywhere in your yard or on your patio, and are easy to move if necessary. Raised garden beds from Outdoor Essentials elevate the plants so gardeners don’t have to bend over and risk injury. They are ideal for fall because gardeners can regulate the temperature of raised beds with ease. On hot days, move or add a shade netting to protect plants from the heat; when frost is a threat, cover the entire bed for protection.

While you’re getting your hands dirty, fall is the perfect time to plant spring flowering bulbs. A little outdoor work now and you’ll be rewarded with beautiful flowers when spring arrives next year.

Step 3: Enjoy the harvest Tend your garden daily for the best results - it may just need a quick check for pests and proper soil moisture. Typical benefits of late-season gardening include fewer bothersome bugs and the soil has better water retention.

As plants grow, pick the fruits and vegetables and enjoy Mother Nature’s bounty. If your plants become crowded, pluck a few out to help remaining plants grow roots and increase the harvest yield.

your plants provide you with fresh, delicious produce.

Fall is a great opportunity to keep gardening momentum alive. So get started and decide what second plantings are best for your space. In as little as 30 days you could be eating the freshest, most flavorful vegetables you’ve ever had, all while under the gorgeous autumn sun.

German shepherds to gerbils: How to choose the best pet for your family Whether a loyal pal like Lassie is what you’re looking for, or a Garfieldlike couch potato is more your speed, a pet can make a wonderful addition to your family. But there is more to choosing a new pet than simply falling in love with a cute face. Making an informed and well-researched decision can lead to a happy home life for both you and your pet.

One of the most important things to know is that all pets are awesome.

They have the potential to be great family members. It all boils down to what you want the animal for, the demands of the animal, and the husbandry and expenses associated with that animal.

The priority is the family needs to decide the type of time they have available for the animal. The family also needs to look at its capability to provide the appropriate exercise, living quarters and temperament.

Sometimes people are mismatched with the animals they choose, and shelters are filled with young dogs that did nothing wrong. They were just a poor match for their owners.

The energy of the animal is an important factor to consider. For any species, understanding how much energy that animal has is important.

For example, a border collie wouldn’t Page 16

be good for people working 16 hours a day, while great Danes tend to make great apartment dogs since they generally lay around a lot. Your family must be able to meet the energy needs of the animal.

If you work long hours, a cat would be a better choice than a dog, but it’s important to remember that cats also need companionship. For families that aren’t home much, a fish, hamster, gerbil, rat or ferret would be better choices. Puppies will require exercise and obedience training, which will require more time than an older dog or other types of animals.

Temperament is another key area, especially when looking at breeds of dogs. People often look at puppies as the ideal dog for their small children, but this isn’t the case. A puppy for children younger than 5 is not recommended and that the puppy cowering in the back of the litter is the worst to pick for children.

The cost of owning a pet goes beyond the initial purchase of the animal. An animal like a hamster will require an initial purchase of a cage, wheel and food, while a dog will require a collar, leash, obedience lessons, a kennel and food, among other things. The amount an animal eats will also greatly affect the cost

of ownership.

All animals should be seen by a veterinarian at least once a year. A relationship with a veterinarian is just as profound as a relationship with a lawyer or regular doctor.

Don’t forget to look at the health of your own family. If you have individuals with allergies, certain breeds and species of animals are better. There are even dogs that are hypo-allergenic. Think about how clean you want your home if you are bothered by cat or dog hair. You can’t confine an animal to a mud room or basement.

Before deciding on any pet,

research is key. The biggest thing is you have to do your research and think about the needs of the animal. It’s not about you, it’s about the animal. It’s going to need your time, love and attention. For dogs, talk with breeders, people who own that breed, and research breeds on sites like the American Kennel Club website, which contains info on all breeds of dogs. If you’re adopting an animal, many rescue groups and shelters do an excellent job of assessing temperament. These shelters will know if an animal is good with children and other animals.

FAMILY FEATURES

arents know there is a small window of time to make a meaningful, positive impact on children and shape who they may become as adults. A large portion of that influence comes at home, but it often also involves school, friends and extracurricular activities, many of which can help families make the most out of childhood experiences.

In fact, an increasing number of families are introducing youth to enrichment programs before kids begin their formal education. A survey by Forrester found that millennial parents are more likely to engage their children in activities at a younger age. They want to introduce their children to a diverse set of experiences, allowing children to discover their talents and skills.

Balancing this heightened level of engagement with the demands of hectic family schedules means parents are increasingly challenged to select the most meaningful activities for their children.

While most extracurricular activities help children socialize and learn new skills, some go further in areas like character building, good citizenship and exploring future goals. Often, the most effective programs work to deliver those outcomes without focusing on them, subtly teaching skills through activities young people consider fun.

Consider Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts, which most associate with camping and outdoor adventures. While boys spend time transforming a block of wood into a race car and learning how to shoot an arrow, the underlying program helps create a strong foundation of leadership, service and community.

A study conducted by Tufts University of kids ages 6-12 found that youth who participate in scouting exhibit strong moral values and positive character attributes, allowing them to embrace new opportunities, overcome obstacles and become better prepared for future success.

As one of the nation’s largest and most prominent valuesbased, youth-development organizations in the country, Boy Scouts of America is applying this proven approach in introducing new programs designed to reach youth who may not be interested in building fires.

“Scouting offers youth and their families life-changing experiences they can’t get anywhere else – from outdoor adventure to building robots, youth learn the value of hard work and experience the thrill of it paying off,” said Michael Surbaugh, Chief Scout Executive for Boy Scouts of America.

“With new programs designed specifically to expand their potential and explore their personal interests, Boy Scouts of America isn’t just an after-school activity. We are helping pave pathways to bright futures.”

According to Surbaugh, scouting programs are focused on providing experiences that youth and their parents want.

From astronomy and other STEM-based skills for future professionals to outdoor adventure, such as camping and paddle boarding, scouting can give direction to the curiosity youth have for life.

importance of involving kids in scouting at an early age, the Lion pilot program, currently available in 201 councils across the country, combines concepts of character development, leadership skills, personal fitness and citizenship with ageappropriate, fun activities for kindergarten-age boys and their parents.

STEM Scouts: Jobs in STEM-related fields are expected to grow 17 percent by 2018, and salaries in those fields are on average 26 percent higher than salaries for other disciplines.

With STEM-related careers on the rise, the STEM Scouts pilot program helps boys and girls learn more about science, technology, engineering and math through interactive, handson activities. The program, currently piloted in 20 councils, helps youth prepare for the future by conducting experiments and learning about lesser-known innovators to demonstrate to youth that people with similar backgrounds to their own can become accomplished STEM professionals.

Exploring: The expanded Exploring program offers youth and young adults, ages 14-20, real-world career experiences that help young men and women build confidence and discover fields where they may find their passion and excel in a future career, such as law enforcement, firefighting, aviation, engineering, medicine and others.

Learn more about scouting programs and how to get involved in your community at beascout.org.

Encouraging new experiences In an effort to further expand unique experiences for youth, Boy Scouts of America has introduced several innovative programs that bring exciting opportunities to youth and families.

CHARTING A PATH The decision to involve your family or child in an extracurricular activity requires several considerations. After all, these activities can help youth build a stable foundation of values and character that help them reach their full potential.

When choosing activities for your children to become involved with at an early age, consider the following: 1. Diverse experiences. Look for programs that offer a multitude of experiences to keep it fresh and interesting for your child.

2. Experienced mentors. Evaluate the training volunteers and staff members go through to ensure your child gets the best experience possible.

3. Build a solid foundation. Ask questions about how the organization teaches children about values and character.

4. Start early. Getting youth involved in extracurricular activities at a young age can help with their development.

5. Maximize your time. Extracurricular activities can be time consuming, but many organizations like Boy Scouts of America provide flexibility for families’ busy schedules. Make sure to ask questions about required meetings or activities to ensure the program fits with your schedule.

Did you know that according to a 2015 survey conducted by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, nearly as many aesthetically-oriented consumers are bothered by their double chin (67%) as by lines and wrinkles around the eyes (69%)? In fact, the condition even has a name - submental fullness, or fat under the chin. It can make you look older and heavier, and it can be difficult to get rid of on your own. Because submental fullness can be influenced by multiple factors – such as genetics, weight gain and aging – sometimes, no matter how much you diet or exercise, your double chin may not go away.
