3rd Annual Putts Fore PD Charity Golf Classic to Take Place SOUTH BERWICK A desire to raise money to speed the cure for Parkinson’s disease and not cancel a charity event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, forced organizers to put on their creativity caps and create the first semi-virtual golf tournament to be played exclusively at the Links at Outlook Golf Course, 299 Portland Street, South Berwick. The 3rd Annual Putts Fore PD Charity Golf Classic,

a TeamFox event, is underway! Tournament information, sponsorship, and donations opportunities can be found at www. puttsforepd.com. Players register individually and pay $125 on the website with registration open until June 12 at 8 p.m. Golf package includes: 18 holes, golf cart, premium golfer’s gift bag, raffle ticket entry for each raffle prize offered, and a chance to win first, second, and third place team

prizes. Prizes will be displayed on their website soon. Teams consist of four players, but don’t worry if you want to play and don’t have a team. Singles and/or couples will be paired up by the tournament director and a tee time can be arranged amongst the group. Once registered, players must call the course in advance for a tee time at 207-384-4653. Your online receipt must be presented at check-in at your scheduled

tee time as proof of payment and entry into the tournament. Your receipt number is also your raffle number. Contact your friends on other teams and schedule your tee times back-to-back to enjoy a day of golf and camaraderie for a good cause! All details can be found on Facebook on their event page. Golf question? Please contact Ralph Hyson at 207-252-3152 or ralphhyson4@ gmail.com.

Encouraging Re-Openings and Updates from Around the Area YORK COUNTY As of June 1, Maine has entered Stage 2 of the Governor’s plan to reopen the economy. Under Stage 2, citizens are still asked to stay six feet apart from others and to wear a mask in places that are densely populated, or where it is difficult to maintain distance. When visiting retail establishments, there will still be limits on how many people can be in the space, so there may still be a line for entry. However, more establishments will be allowed to open up. In this new stage, there is also more flexibility for groups of up to 50 people to be in one

Restaurants, Small Businesses Gather in Wells

WELLS On Friday, May 29, representatives of many York County restaurants, small businesses, workers and local community members gathered in the parking lot of Mike’s Clam Shack to voice their alarm over Governor Mills decision late last week to further delay businesses reopening fully in Maine. York County legislators, State Senator Robert Foley (R-York), State Senator David Woodsome (R-York), State Representative Heidi Sampson (R-Alfred), and State Representative Beth O’Connor (R-Berwick) agreed to help provide this opportunity for

area businesses and residents to have their voices heard. Dick Varano, who owns Billy’s Chowder House, Varano’s Italian Restaurant, and Hidden Cove Brewing Co. in Wells, gave the governor an ultimatum: “We’ve come to the conclusion that we want to give the governor till the 15th of June to make a decision to let us open or we’re going to take it upon ourselves, and we’re going to open our restaurants.” Spokesperson for Governor Mills Scott Ogden reiterated that the decisions of the state government have been based on facts, “science and public health data with the sole interest of

keeping Maine people alive.” On May 30, Governor Mills directed the Maine Department of Corrections (MDOC) to offer to purchase perishable and non-perishable food from restaurants in York, Cumberland and Androscoggin counties that are unable to open to indoor dining. Restaurants in these counties that had purchased food prior to the May 27 announcement delaying the full reopening of restaurants for dine-in services are encouraged to contact MDOC Associate Commissioner Karen Yeaton at docinfo@ maine.gov by Friday, June 5. The MDOC has capacity to purchase perishable and nonperishable food items, except for dairy, at a price equivalent to the price paid for the same items through MDOC’s food contract. Purchased food will be served to staff and inmates. Restaurants interested in selling to MDOC would need to be a registered vendor with the state of Maine. Payments to vendors typically take two weeks. “I hope this move will

MAKING IT EASY TO GET SAFE, PERSONALIZED CARE. Here at MaineHealth, we’re focused on continuing to stay ahead of this pandemic. It’s why we’ve instituted new protocols to ensure everyone walking through our doors gets the care they need safely and with minimal risk. Things like mandatory masks and paperless admissions. Daily screenings for our care team members and expanded telehealth capabilities. Because there are certain things that waiting only makes worse. And a big one is problems with your health. That’s why we’re making it easy to get safe, personalized care.

Executive Order Allowing for Easing of Restrictions

AUGUSTA Governor Janet Mills signed an Executive Order that allows for the gradual easing of restrictions implemented under previous Executive Orders as the state continues to reopen under the Restarting Maine’s Economy plan. “I continue to ask Maine people to stay home whenever possible, not only to protect themselves but to protect others as well, like our frontline workers,” said Governor Mills. To a large extent, the Executive Order consolidates for clarity the major provisions of previous Executive Orders and adds to the face covering requirement. The following is an outline of the order: Eases the restrictions on

certain gatherings from 10 to 50 beginning June 1 consistent with the Restarting Plan; Eases restrictions on eating establishments permitted to reopen and maintains restrictions on those not yet authorized to reopen consistent with the Restarting Plan; Phases out the distinction between essential and non-essential businesses consistent with the implementation of the Restarting Plan; Continues to require businesses to the extent practicable as determined by businesses to have their employees work remotely; Continues but relaxes Maine’s “Stay Safer at Home” Order, which has Maine people stay-at-home with exceptions, allowing people to visit more busi-

nesses and participate in more activities as they reopen under the Restarting Plan; Maintains previously established restrictions on use of public transportation, unless necessary for essential purposes, and continues to limit passengers in certain private vehicles; Effective June 5, requires places of business accessible to the public to post readily visible signs notifying customers of the requirement to wear cloth face coverings where physical distancing is not possible, as many already have, and allows them to deny entry or service to a person not wearing a covering or who is exempt from doing so. The Order is effective May 31 and will remain in effect until rescinded.

MEDICARE PLANNING HELP

York Creates Community “Ambassador” Program YORK The York Board of Selectmen authorized a plan to create a community “ambassador” program to help with crowd control and encourage proper social distancing at the town’s popular destinations, including its beaches and Mount Agamenticus. The program would hire

“high-visibility” town employees to provide “visitor-friendly communication,” encourage voluntary compliance, monitor safety issues as well as take pressure off lifeguards and police walking the town’s beaches and trails. A total of 10 people will be hired to work as ambassadors in two different shifts over the summer.

Maine Parishes to Offer Indoor Masses with Restrictions PORTLAND Effective Monday, June 1, the Diocese of Portland is allowing Maine churches to hold public Masses with restrictions and safeguards in place (below). “We are, of course, anxious to return to our churches and have the opportunity to celebrate Mass,” said Bishop Robert Deeley. “We have been preparing for the last few weeks for a safe restoration of Mass in accord with the guidelines of the CDC. There are a lot of things involved, but we want to make sure that we are doing everything we can to keep people safe and fulfill the mission of the Church.” All public Masses were temporarily suspended on

March 18 due to the outbreak of COVID-19. The dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass continues to be in place, and the extensive list of live-streamed Masses being offered at churches around Maine (www.portlanddiocese.org/ live-streamed-masses) will continue as most parishioners won’t be able to attend in person due to the capacity restrictions. “Some of the restrictions may seem to be too cautious for the faithful who wish to return to public Masses at this time,” said the bishop. “However, ensuring the safety and health of our clergy, employees, students, volunteers, parishioners, and See PARISHES page 10...

Taking place in the 1920’s and 30’s, the story unfolds around the lives (and painful deaths) of several young women who worked in factories in New Jersey and Illinois putting the luminescent paint onto clocks and watches which, in the process, exposed them to the effects of horrendous radium poisoning.

~ Ask The Computer Lady ~ Dear Elizabeth, I would like to download a simple word processor to my wife’s computer. She has Windows 10 as her operating system. Is there a program available free or should I buy one? What do you suggest? God bless. Bernard Dear Bernard, If you only need a simple word processor, and you are using Windows 10, why not use the WordPad program that comes with Windows? You can find WordPad in a couple of different ways. 1. Click on “Start” then go to “Windows Accessories. 2. Under “Accessories” click on the “WordPad” icon. Another way to find WordPad in any version of Windows is to tap the windows logo key on your keyboard, then type, “WordPad”. WordPad is a basic word processing program that doesn’t have all the features of Word, but is more than enough for most people. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, Good evening to you Elizabeth, I have a simple question but yet it is too difficult for me to figure out. I have a desktop PC just upgraded to Windows 10. I also have an HP laptop that use to be Windows 8.1 but now also upgraded to Windows 10. I would like to be able to share same information, IE, documents, etc. between each computer. Is this all possible with use of the cloud? Or do we still have a set procedure to network both computers together? I hope you are able to answer my question. Sincerely, Kenneth Dear Kenneth, One of the advantages of the newer versions of Windows, and specifically, OneDrive is that you can automatically keep your settings and documents synced between devices. First, if you log into both your desktop and laptop with the same Microsoft account, you can set your desktop settings and app settings to sync automatically. Just click on “Start” and type “Sync Settings” to open your OneDrive settings dialog. Then click the settings you want to sync between computers. For your files, simply store files you want to sync in the OneDrive folder, and they will automatically be stored on both computers, and in the cloud. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, We have two iPads and they are programmed the same. Mine won’t let me get emails anymore, says I need to re-enter my password. I don’t remember the password, so I want to change the password – but when I get in to change the password, I can’t find where to change it.

The only thing there is where it says “Re-Enter Password”. I can’t get beyond the reenter password. I can’t find anyplace else to click on to do anything else. Could you please help me get my emails back. I thought if I could figure out how to change it, I would change both iPads and try not to lose the next passwords. Thank you so very much for being there to help. Shirley Dear Shirley, You can’t change your email password on your ipad email app, instead, you need to change the password with your email provider. If your email address is from your local internet service provider (like Comcast, TWC, Fairpoint, etc.) you will need to contact them. Usually they will reset the password for you and you can then enter the new password on both iPads. If your email address is online (gmail, yahoo, hotmail, outlook.com, etc.) you will need to go to the website, try to log in, then click on the link to reset your password. Most online email sites will send a link for resetting your password to a backup email address, ask you security questions, or send a text code to your cell phone. Once you have your new password, you can go back to both iPads and enter the new email password. Elizabeth Dear Elizabeth, Several weeks ago I decided it would be a good idea to have spell-check enabled on my

Specials This Week:

email. It didn’t take more than one email having all the questionable names spell-checked to decide this was a mistake. How do I disable the spell-check? Thanks, Colleen Dear Colleen, I will show you how to disable spell-check, but in addition to that, I will show you how to add those names to the spellcheck dictionary so that you won’t have to deal with spellchecking valid names. To disable “Spell Check”, open your email program and click on the “File” tab. In the menu, point to “Options” and click on “Mail” in the submenu. An “Options” dialog box will open. Click on the “Spelling” tab. Here you can click to turn on or off several spelling settings. Remove the checkmark in the first four boxes to turn it off. Click the “OK” button at the bottom of the dialog box to close the box and save your changes. Rather than turning off spell-check, a better solution might be to add your unique names to the spell-check dictionary. To do this, right click on an underlined word (that you know is spelled correctly), and click “Add to Dictionary” in the context menu that appears. Once you have done this, spellcheck will no longer flag that word as misspelled. Elizabeth Interested in learning more? Elizabeth has answered thousands of computer questions over the years.

Zoom-Bombing & Other Intruders With the coronavirus outbreak forcing many people to work from home, taking computer security measures to protect both themselves and their company has grown even more important. Video conferencing, for one example, isn’t always safe from intruders. The FBI has received many reports of “Zoombombing,” in which graphic images pop up during company Zoom meetings and video chats. “In a regular office, most companies make sure to protect their devices and networks,” says Stephen Hyduchak, CEO of Aver (www.goaver.com), an identity-verification service. “But system administrators aren’t coming out to every employee’s home and setting everything up to keep with corporate standards. “Therefore, it’s incumbent on the workforce when working from home to know how to protect their computer system and be thorough about it. Because if a confidential document somehow gets leaked from your home computer, you’re in a bad spot with your company.” Hyduchak suggests these security tips when working remotely: Change the router login and password. This is a must

because the default passwords for many models are weak and also known across the internet, Hyduchak says. “Attackers often simply write them into the code of malicious programs,” Hyduchak says. “And if they work, the router is captured. The intruders can also spy on you, because everything that you send online passes through the router.” Protect with an antivirus solution. “Companies often install powerful security solutions to protect computers from malware,” Hyduchak says. “At home, it is trickier to provide that level of protection, but leaving a computer vulnerable when work documents are stored there is not an option. It’s vital to install a reliable security solution on all devices that handle corporate data. Even a free antivirus will significantly reduce the risk of getting infected.” Configure a Wi-Fi encryption. “An attacker connecting to your Wi-Fi can intercept everything you send or enter online, including passwords for remote access to an office-based computer or corporate mail,” Hyduchak says. “So it’s essential to configure your network connection correctly. Make sure that the connection is encrypted to keep See ZOOM page 17...

How to Mail Without Leaving the Safety of Home

STATEWIDE You don’t have to go to the Post Office to use many postal products and services. In fact, most simple tasks can be done from the convenience and safety of your home with or without a computer. Like purchasing stamps. Using your computer, you can go to the Postal Store on usps. com and select different stamp denominations. USPS will deliver them right to your home. No computer? No problem! Ask your local Post Office or carrier to bring you a Stamps by Mail order form, complete it and put it in your mailbox with a check. Again, USPS will bring

you your stamps. What if you need to send a package? You can order free Priority Mail and Priority Mail Express boxes, or other package supplies at usps.com. Again, USPS will deliver items to your address. And at usps.com, using Click-N-Ship, you can print a mailing label with the appropriate postage right from your computer. Need that package pickedup? Go to usps.com and schedule a free carrier pick-up. In your request, let your local Post Office know where they can find the

package or packages and the carrier will retrieve them when he or she delivers your mail. USPS postal employees are working around the clock to ensure you get your important letters and packages. Skip the trip to the Post Office by ordering stamps, package supplies, and printing package postage from your home. They’ll pick up your packages too. The Postal Service receives no tax dollars for operating expenses, and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.

STATEWIDE U.S. Senator Angus King (I-ME) recently joined the Maine Association of Nonprofits (MANP) for a teleconference discussing the significant role that Maine’s nonprofits are playing in the coronavirus response in communities across Maine, and the challenges these organizations are facing due to the pandemic. During the call, Senator King discussed the importance of including funding for nonprofits in relief packages and highlighted the best ways people can advocate in future negotiations. “In the face of extreme uncertainty, nonprofit orga-

That includes the priest, lector, cantor, and other church personnel; A fair and equitable registration process for parishioners who want to attend Mass must be established at each church/ parish to ensure the restricted attendance capacity is not exceeded; Anyone from outside of Maine who has not quarantined for 14 days in Maine prior to Mass may not attend; Masks will be worn by

those attending Mass to protect against the projection of respiratory particles; Pew seating arrangements will be established to keep each person at least six feet from the next person; Communion will be offered with social-distancing guidelines adhered to in the form of six feet of space between recipients. The distribution of the shared consecrated wine for the faithful is still suspended. Holy water fonts will remain empty for the time being; Seats and pews will be sanitized after each Mass. Every other pew will be used and the flow of foot traffic will go in one direction if possible to avoid crowding (separate entrance and exit ways, keeping within fire safety codes); Churches will have proper resources available to clean the church following the Mass with staff members and volunteers receiving proper training and PPE equipment in advance. Cleaning will consist of all pews, knobs, door handles, bathrooms, altars, musical equipment, and touched surfaces; No social gatherings are allowed before or after any Mass;

nizations across Maine are stepping up to address the challenges posed by both the coronavirus pandemic and the economic harm it’s bringing,” said Senator King. “Whether it’s helping get food to families in need, or addressing the crisis’s impact on mental health, or making sure our most vulnerable citizens are cared for, these nonprofits are answering the call of duty – but even as their services are needed more than ever, the economic climate is drastically reducing donations to nonprofits. Losing these groups would be a gut punch to our communities and our economy.”

Maine Children’s Alliance Giraffe Award Accepting Nominations STATEWIDE The Maine Children’s Alliance is now accepting nominations for their annual Giraffe Awards, which calls attention to the achievements of dedicated volunteers, professionals, and organizations who also “stick their necks out” for kids. Now more than ever, we are witnessing those in our communities who are stepping up to help ensure children and families have what they need to get through this crisis. Together we can say “thank you”

to those who have gone above and beyond to invest their time and energy into the health and well-being of our kids. The Giraffe Awards recognize winners in different categories including business, individual, youth, and organization. They will be presented at the “Champions for Children” event on November 17 at Maple Hill Farm in Hallowell. All nominations must be received by July 15. Details can be found at www.mekids.org. For questions, email Bonnie Colfer at bcolfer@mekids.org.

Alcohol-based hand sanitizers will be positioned in churches. In addition, older adults and people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions and who might be at a higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19 are asked not to attend.

Sunday Fundays Kick-off at Clay Hill Farm

Brick Store Museum Presents 17th Century Saturday KENNEBUNK The Brick Store Museum, celebrating local history, art and culture year-round, will mark the dual bicentennials of the state of Maine and the Town of Kennebunk this year with its Century Saturday Series, supported by the Maine Humanities Council and Kennebunk Savings Bank. The series runs from May through October, and features one century of history per month. On Saturday, June 6, the program will focus on the 17th century in Maine. The 17th century program discusses the first contacts between indigenous peoples and European explorers and settlers, and what life was like in southern Maine at the time. While the program was supposed to be a physical event, the museum staff has now created an online “17th Century Portal” at www. brickstoremuseum.org. The site will feature speakers Astrida Schaeffer, who will discuss 17th century clothing and costumes, and Ginger Lauritis, who will discuss native plants before the European arrivals. In addition to recorded talks, the museum will also be offering an online “pop-up exhibit” to explore its collection of 17th century history in the Kennebunks. Visitors will also find at-home and outdoor programs that families can undertake together, including making 17th century recipes and hands-on activities to explore. The museum has planned an immersive experience for visitors to get the chance to see, smell, taste, hear and touch the different centuries that led us to the present. The museum’s 16th Century Portal, which premiered May 2, saw over 150 visi-

Some to Receive Stimulus Payments Via Debit Card WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senator Susan Collins is reminding Mainers to be on the lookout for their stimulus payments in the form of prepaid debit cards in the mail if they have not already received these funds. The stimulus checks of up to $1,200 per individual were authorized by the CARES Act, which Senator Collins voted for. “According to the IRS, more than 700,000 Mainers have already received their stimulus payments. For some of those who have not yet received these funds, the IRS has begun mailing prepaid debit cards,” said Senator Collins. “If you receive a letter from ‘Money Network Cardholder Services,’ read it carefully and don’t mistake it for a credit card offer.” Nearly four million Americans are being sent their Economic Impact Payment by

prepaid debit card, instead of by direct deposit or paper check. These debit cards will arrive in a plain envelope from “Money Network Cardholder Services.” The Visa name will appear on the front of the card; the back of the card has the name of the issuing bank, MetaBank®, N.A. Information included with the card will explain that the card is an Economic Impact Payment Card. Those who receive Economic Impact Payment by prepaid debit card can do the fol-

lowing without any fees: Make purchases online and at any retail location where Visa is accepted; Get cash from in-network ATMs; Transfer funds to their personal bank account; Check their card balance online, by mobile app, or by phone. This free, prepaid card also provides consumer protections available to traditional bank account owners, including protection against fraud, loss, and other errors. Learn more about the cards at www.irs.gov.

$1.5 Million for MDOL Amid Pandemic WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senators Susan Collins and Angus King announced that the Maine Department of Labor has been awarded $1.5 million to help address the workforce-related impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This funding, allocated through the U.S. Department of Labor’s Dislocated Worker Grants (DWGs) program, was awarded through the CARES Act. “This important funding will help to mitigate the economic impact of the COVID-19

pandemic on Maine’s workforce, ensuring that our state’s hardworking men and women have access to the resources they need to get through this difficult time,” said Senators Collins and King in a joint statement. The Maine Department of Labor received Disaster Recovery DWGs, which may be used to provide eligible participants disaster-relief employment to address COVID-19 impacts within their communities, as well as employment and training activities.

The affirmation of Maine’s ratings comes as S&P and Moody’s downgrade other states’ ratings as a result of the economic turmoil precipitated by the COVID19 pandemic. “This is welcome news and a validation of our administration’s bipartisan work with the legislature to enact responsible budgets and manage state government in a fiscally sound manner,” said Governor Mills. “Difficult decisions lie ahead, but these stable ratings demonstrate that Maine is a worthy investment as we prepare to advance bonds to fix our roads and expand broadband in rural Maine.” “Moody’s

BUSINESS & FINANCE 5 Things Retirees Can Do with Stimulus Checks Stimulus checks being sent to millions of Americans are seen as a lifeline for many. The economic calamity caused by the COVID19 pandemic has resulted in massive unemployment, shrinking bank accounts, and tightened family budgets, and the $1,200 check can provide a little breathing room while paying for some essentials.

But for retirees who aren’t counting on the check to pay bills because they draw Social Security and can tap retirement savings, there are numerous options to put that stimulus check to good use, says Chris Orestis, the president of LifeCare Xchange (www.retirementgenius.com). “The stimulus money provides an opportunity to help a

Money Musts for College Grads From layoffs to halted hiring, the pandemic has upended the labor market, leaving newly minted graduates feeling uncertain about their post-college plans. “The sudden shift in economic outlook for this year’s graduates is staggering,” said Michael Sullivan, a personal financial consultant with Take Charge America. “Millions of jobs have vanished and it’s unclear when we might see normal again. That makes it critical for grads to get a strong grasp on their finances — not only to survive in the short term but to thrive in the future.” Sullivan shares four money musts for college graduates: Really budget: Consistent and realistic budgeting is the key to financial security. Use an app or spreadsheet to track all your expenses for 30 days to discover your true spending habits (as you might be surprised). Based on what you learn, identify opportunities to trim expenses or reallocate funds to other budget categories. Regularly reassessing your budget ensures you remain focused on your financial goals like paying off debt or saving for a car. Consider gig work: With

the pandemic, delivery services like Postmates or GrubHub are in high demand. You also might consider freelancing via digital platforms like Fiverr or TaskRabbit. Gig work not only can bring in much-needed cash, it also can help you stay busy and teach you new skills that can be leveraged for a fulltime job. Be cautious with credit: New grads often are inundated with pre-approved credit card offers. But don’t be tempted to open multiple cards — during the pandemic or otherwise. One credit card is enough to start building a positive credit history, which is important because good credit plays a role in nearly every life milestone from buying vehicles and homes to even landing some jobs. The best way to build credit is to have one card you use and pay off in full every month. Avoid overspending and carrying a balance, as fees and interest can quickly add up. Don’t forget student loans: As a new grad, you have a sixmonth grace period before you must start paying back your federal student loans. Even with government action to assist federal loan borrowers during the pandemic, you still have to select a repayment plan. If See GRADS page 17...

family member, add savings, pay down debt, or take care of some things you’ve been putting off,” Orestis says. “Retirees should look at their current situation and determine if the money is best used short-term or for future considerations.” Orestis suggests five ways for retirees to use their stimulus check: Bulk up your emergency savings. “The rule of thumb regarding an emergency fund is having enough money in quickly accessible cash to pay for at least three months’ worth of living expenses,” Orestis says. “If your fund is short, add your stimulus check.” Invest it in stable places. If a retiree doesn’t absolutely need their stimulus check, it could turn out to be a nice bonus by growing it through investment. “People are understandably hesitant about the volatile stock market now,” Orestis says. “It has bounced back a few times recently and no one should panic sell or buy. Another stable

investment is in maintaining a life insurance policy instead of allowing it to lapse. Life insurance policies are a stable asset that guarantee the face value and also have secondary market value if the owner decides to sell it off with a life settlement.” Invest in your health. Seniors are among the most vulnerable groups to suffer extreme symptoms from the coronavirus. “Add that to feelings of isolation and not seeing family,” Orestis says, “and it would be productive to spend the stimulus on an activity that would boost their wellness, both physically and mentally. Fitness equipment, an online fitness class, appointments with a social worker for counseling, or perhaps some added technology to help stay connected to loved ones and others.” Help a family member. “With so many people hurting financially from this crisis,” Orestis says, “retirees in a good position currently have a wonderful opportunity with

these checks to provide added support for loved ones, especially those among the millions now out of work.” Spend it on overdue repairs. This is an investment in a way, because spending on a car or home issue that’s relatively inexpensive now could save you from much bigger costs later if those issues are left unattended. “A lot of people put off home projects, car repairs or maintenance because they want to conserve funds and limit retirement withdrawals,” Orestis says. “Your stimulus check could be money well spent to prevent big expenditures.” “Americans are suffering financially, and seniors aren’t necessarily the exception,” Orestis says. “It’s a welcome bonus for many, so they should be sure to use it, or save it, wisely. Those that have the wiggle room to spend it can make their lives easier through this difficult time.”

Cancer Survivors Day to Feature Virtual Relay For Life STATEWIDE Sunday, June 7 is National Cancer Survivors Day and participants state-wide in Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts will come together online for Hope From Home, a new virtual experience to celebrate cancer survivors, to remember those lost to cancer and to fight back against the disease. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the previously scheduled Relay For Life live events across Massachusetts, Maine and New Hampshire have suspended their live events, and many now are participating in a virtual online experience called Hope From Home. Participants should register for their local event at www.relayforlife.org and then on June 7 join the activities at https://bit.ly/relayhopefromhome. Community volunteers and American Cancer Society staff from 50 events around the region have teamed up for a virtual Relay For Life experience. This online event will take place primarily on Facebook and will feature a mix of live and pre-recorded segments, plus prompts to post comments, photos and videos. It is all designed to celebrate

cancer survivors and caregivers, to remember those who have passed away from the disease and to empower all to continue the fight against the disease. Collectively, these events are aiming to raise $500,000 in total this year. This money enables the American Cancer Society to help cancer patients, a population vulnerable to COVID-19, to navigate their cancer journey during a pandemic. The society offers advice on coping with cancer treatment side effects, answers questions about health insurance and so much more. Donations fund a round-the-clock toll-free helpline 1-800-227-2345 and live chat at www.cancer. org; support research into cancer’s causes, cures and treatments; and promote education to reduce the risk of a diagnosis and to detect cancer as early as possible. “During this difficult time, cancer hasn’t stopped, and neither will we,” said Louise Santosuosso, executive director for community development at the American Cancer Society. “Relay For Life is all about togetherness, but the safety of our patients, survivors, volunteers and staff is always a top priority. So, even though we cannot walk side-by-side right now,

Bill to Reauthorize Older Americans Act Signed into Law WASHINGTON, D.C. The Supporting Older Americans Act, bipartisan legislation authored by U.S. Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Bob Casey (D-PA), the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Aging Committee, was signed into law. Their legislation reauthorizes and strengthens the Older Americans Act (OAA), the landmark legislation focused on improving the wellbeing of the Nation’s seniors and their caregivers. Since 1965, the OAA has supported and improved the lives of seniors—particularly those who are low-income— through programs that promote nutrition (e.g. Meals on

Wheels), improve transportation options, support caregivers, offer employment and community service opportunities, and prevent abuse and neglect. This critical law was last reauthorized in 2016. Many of these programs, such as home-delivered nutrition services, have become even more important to seniors during the current coronavirus pandemic. “For more than half a century, the Older Americans Act has served as a lifeline for millions of seniors by enriching their lives and improving their overall health,” said Senator Collins. “This bipartisan legislation will help ensure that the OAA continues to match

Shipments of PPE to Nursing Homes STATEWIDE Vice President Pence, leader of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, directed the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to coordinate shipments of personal protective equipment (PPE) to more than 15,000 nursing homes across America.

In total, FEMA will distribute 608,000 pieces of eye protection, 6.9 million masks, 6.4 million gowns, and 31.4 million pairs of gloves.

Local facilities scheduled to receive equipment include: Varney Crossing Nursing Care Center, 47 Elm Street, North Berwick; St. Andre Health Care Facility, 407 Pool Street, Biddeford; Greenwood Center, 1142 Main Street, Sanford; Newton Center, 35 July Street, Sanford; Durgin Pines, 9 Lewis Road, Kittery; Kennebunk Center for Health & Rehabilitation, 158 Ross Road, Kennebunk; River Ridge Center, 3 Brazier Lane, Kennebunk.

the goals we set to permit seniors to age with dignity, respect, and community. As Chairman of the Senate Aging Committee, it was one of my highest priorities to get this bill across the finish line to strengthen the OAA’s programs while providing more flexibility for states to meet local needs.” “The Leadership Council of Aging Organizations (LCAO) welcomes the unanimous reauthorization of the Older Americans Act like a fresh breath of Spring,” said Debra Whitman, Chair of LCAO, the coalition of national nonprofit organizations working on behalf of America’s older adults. “At a time of increasing threat to the health of our nation’s older adults, the passage of Supporting Older Americans Act of 2020 is an important milestone. The law provides much needed assistance for nutrition, transportation, support for caregivers, and help to prevent abuse and neglect, enabling our most vulnerable older adults to live safely in their homes and communities.” In the last year alone, OAA programs: Served more than 700,000 caregivers; and Provided seniors across the country with 358 million meals. In addition to supporting seniors, OAA programs are cost effective. The average cost of serving one senior Meals on Wheels for the entire year is $2,828, compared to the average of $2,424 it costs to stay for a single day in the hospital and the approximately $2,530 it costs to stay just ten days in in a semi-private room in a nursing home. By providing seniors with a hot meal, the Older Americans Act improves nutrition and keeps seniors out of the hospital, allowing them to age in their homes and communities. In fact, every $1 invested into the Older Americans Act generates $3 to help seniors stay at home and out of the hospital through low-cost, community-based services.

Health & Fitness Grants Help Pandemic Relief Efforts in York County LEWISTON Lewiston-based Community Health Options, the

Nearly $18 M for Maine Nursing Home Providers WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senator Susan Collins announced that Maine nursing homes will receive a total of $17.9 million that will help protect the health of residents and staff and support nursing homes struggling with significant expenses or lost revenue due to COVID-19. The funding released today was included as part of the CARES Act and the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act. “Yesterday, I chaired an Aging Committee hearing on how to protect seniors in long-term care facilities from COVID-19, and the need for additional resources was apparent,” said Senator Collins. “As we seek to implement measures such as universal testing in nursing homes, this funding will be crucial to helping protect residents’ health and support facilities that are under increasing financial pressure.” Each Maine nursing home will receive $50,000 plus a distribution of $2,500 per bed. All certified skilled nursing facilities with six or more beds are eligible for this targeted distribution.

Volunteer for Drive-Thru COVID Testing YORK Volunteers are needed to help with the COVID19 drivethru testing at the York Hospital’s Route 1 location. Anyone interested in helping should go to www.signupgenius.com, and fill out the sign-up form. PPE, lunches, and training will be provided.

state’s only nonprofit, memberled health insurance plan, has awarded grants to non-profit agencies supporting Maine communities and organizations experiencing some of the most troubling effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. “As a community-based health plan, we see and hear daily how this pandemic is affecting Maine people throughout our state. We have targeted these grants to address clear and immediate needs such as food, shelter, and health,” said Kevin Lewis, president and CEO of Health Options. “We’ve also directed funds to help the state’s organic farmers continue to work and provide safe, secure, Maine-grown food. In addition, job losses and social distancing have intensified the need to help Maine people facing domestic violence, elder abuse, and

child abuse, and our grants are meant to address these issues as well.” Grants have been awarded to all United Way organizations across the state, as well as The Good Shepherd Food Bank, Maine Court Appointed Advocates, Maine Coalition to End Domestic Violence and Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association. “United Way of York County is grateful for the grant received from Community Health Options in support of our local COVID-19 Relief Fund. During this difficult time, these resources are going to nonprofits on the front lines of meeting the food, housing and mental health needs of many of our York County neighbors,” said Barb Wentworth, president and CEO of the United Way of York County.

Tips To Keep Mosquitoes Away Summer is on its way, which means so are mosquitoes. The flying pests invade neighborhoods like an army, but they aren’t just a backyard nuisance with bites that itch. They also can carry dangerous diseases, including West Nile virus and Zika. Most regions of the U.S. have issues with mosquitoes, but knowing prevention and mitigation measures can stop them from mushrooming into a big problem, says Dr. Craig Stoops (www.mosquito-authority.com), a retired U.S. Navy medical entomologist and chief science officer at Mosquito® Authority, a mosquito control company. “People are unfortunately attractive to mosquitoes,” Dr. Stoops says, “but there are numerous ways we can avoid the irritation and the potential danger of a bite. So much has to

do with preparing your property and knowing how mosquitoes thrive. “Some people are more susceptible to bites than others. Mosquitoes can be attracted to different chemicals found in human skin. But just because mosquitoes are an inevitable part of summer doesn’t mean you’re defenseless.” Dr. Stoops offers five tips on reducing the appearance of mosquitoes and their bites: - Consider a professional service. Sometimes people prefer to do it themselves when it comes to fixing home issues, but they later find that a persistent problem is often better left to trained professionals. “Companies that specialize in mosquito control can effectively address the problem by implementing an entire proSee MOSQUITOS page 17...

Still water is a perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes. Common places of standing water include: clogged drain gutters, corrugated drain pipes, bird baths, pet bowls, planters, trash and recycling bins, children’s toys, and kiddie pools. “It is important to remain vigilant and remove any containers and debris from your yard to lower the habitats available to mosquitoes,” Dr. Stoops says. “A mosquito needs only about a tablespoon of water to lay eggs.” Use safe repellents. Repellents registered by the Environmental Protection Agency have been reviewed and approved to pose minimal risk when used properly. “Some of the most effective ingredients commonly referred to in a repellent are DEET, Picaridan, and oil of

lemon eucalyptus,” Dr. Stoops says. EPA-approved repellents provide up to two hours of protection. Dress appropriately. “Studies have shown that some mosquitoes are more attracted to dark clothing,” Dr. Stoops says. “Avoid wearing lightweight, thin materials, which mosquitoes can bite right through. Instead, opt for tightly woven materials, like cotton, denim, nylon, or windbreaker-type materials, which are more difficult for the bugs to penetrate. Clothing that provides UV protection is typically tightly woven and often protects against insect bites, too.” Keep your landscape clean. “Trimmed trees and shrubs improve a property’s air circulation,” Dr. Stoops says. “The increased air flow will physically push mosquitoes out of that area and remove the environment they thrive in. Also, there are some gardening choices that can deter mosquitoes: basil, lavender, and catnip are all plants that mosquitoes don’t like.” The Weekly Sentinel does not endorse any products or services suggested by third-party sources.

You can use the router settings to select or change the type of encryption, and remember that your Wi-Fi password should be strong.” Update programs and operating systems. “Because new vulnerabilities are frequently being found in operating systems and applications, cybercriminals exploit them to invade other people’s devices,” Hyduchak says. “They often rely on people being too lazy to update software. It’s vital to regularly update everything installed on any device that you use for work purposes.” Stay vigilant. Sometimes a malicious message can sneak into corporate mail. This is especially relevant to remote workers, because the amount of digital communications increases sharply with telecommuting. “Read messages carefully and don’t rush to respond to them,” Hyduchak says. “If someone urgently needs an important document or demands immediate

payment of an invoice, doublecheck that the someone is who they claim to be. Call the other party for clarification, or confirm the action with your boss. And be especially suspicious of emails with links. If a link to a supposed document does not point to a corporate resource, better to ignore it.” “Not every organization was prepared for this remote working scenario,” Hyduchak says. “Your system may require additional security software now that it has left the safer environment of your organization’s network. Check with your IT department on whether you should install additional solutions.” The Weekly Sentinel does not endorse any products or services suggested by third-party sources.

People and Business Proﬁles

Wreaths Make a Patriotic Statement YORK Memorial Day weekend in York was a special time of social distancing and patriotic tributes. The Old York Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution created eight special wreaths for the various monuments in the town center. Michael Dow, who serves on the Committee of Veterans Affairs was pleased to work with the placing of the wreaths, “I was enjoying the crafty look and especially the saying; One Nation Under God / Home of the Free/ Because of the Brave.”

Dow went on to explain that Edward Bellamy [1850-1898] created the famous carved eagles with patriotic sayings and these wreaths reminded him of that approach. Dow should know because his carved Bellamy replica eagle was a gift to President George Bush and was exhibited for a year in Washington DC. “Michael is amazing for both his skill in wood carving, his service to our country as a Vietnam veteran and the volunteer work he does on the Committee of Veterans Affairs. He is such a humble man who is an outstand-

to encourage people to support local businesses as states begin to reopen – PETA has selected the country’s Top Vegan Doughnuts, and Lovebirds Donuts has scored a “sweet” spot on the list. The all-vegan shop’s award-winning doughnut delights, which are available for curbside pick-up, include always available favorites like glazed Brioche, Boston Cream, and Maui Wowee.

“Lovebirds Donuts’ vegan doughnuts hit a hole-in-one for both pastry buffs and animals,” says PETA President Ingrid Newkirk. On National Doughnut Day, local doughnut lovers can also enjoy a free doughnut at Congdon’s Doughnuts (1090 Post Road, Wells) and special offers at participating Dunkin’ Donut locations.

Bowenwork Practitioners Redeﬁne ‘New Normal' SEACOAST For Bowenwork practitioners, COVID-19 has presented unique business challenges. “We work in an industry where ‘touch’ is part of how we deliver our services,” said Cheryl Brown of Bowenwork for Fascial Health, which serves southern Maine and New Hampshire. Initially developed in the 1950s in Australia, Bowenwork is a dynamic system of

connective tissue and muscle evidence-based therapy that addresses acute and chronic health conditions. Noting she has a private practice, but operates collaboratively with two fellow practitioners as part of Bowenwork for Fascial Health, Brown said it has taken some time to reframe their business model. “I think COVID-19 caught all of us off guard, especially because

we often work out of our home offices,” she said. “I feel like we have a better sense for how to proceed.” Lisa Toole, who along with Ainslee Farrington helped form Bowenwork for Fascial Health, said each of them are utilizing comprehensive measures to ensure client safety and minimize germ transmission.

Randall Vance Dawson, 69 NORTH BERWICK – Randall Vance Dawson passed away May 26, 2020 at Wentworth Douglass Hospital in Dover, NH. Randy was born August 19, 1950 in Portland to Ernest and Gloria (Madden) Dawson. Randy served in the Air Force in Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and finally England after close to 10 years of service After returning to the states, he drove tractor trailer cross country. After the tragic loss of his son, he decided to stay close to home, becoming a diesel mechanic, retiring from “Rochester Truck” after many years. He was very talented in re-

storing classic motorcycles and vintage corvettes. He was well respected for his work. Randy was predeceased by his son Kenny and brother Scotty Dawson. Surviving are his wife Rose; daughter Jennifer Schofield with husband Justin and their daughter Emily of Sanford; son Ronnie Dawson with wife Gidget and their son Nicky of Parsons, KS; Mark Bouvier and his daughter Kylie of Sanford; sister Valerie Dawson Orr of Ft. Lauderdale, FL and her son Renaud E. Pelletier of Manchester, NH. At Randy’s request, there will be no services. A celebration of his life will be held later this summer. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to “The Humane Society” or any pet rescue in the North Berwick area. Arrangements are entrusted to Johnson Funeral Home, North Berwick.

Bernier-Gelinas FUNERAL HOME

Kittery, ME We are often asked by the families we serve, here at JS Pelkey & Son and Bernier Funeral Homes, why certain expressions and traditions exist in the funeral service industry. One of the most often asked questions is “Why send flowers to a memorial service or funeral, aren’t they just a waste of money?” Well nothing could be further from the truth. As my friend Todd Van Beck recently wrote in an article: Flowers are sent to funerals for several reasons. Flowers are a means of expression. It is often difficult for those mourning a death to put feelings into words. Flowers are a visual expression of love, sympathy, and respect. They are a way of lending support and sharing the burden of grief. In addition to sending flowers to the funeral, there is a growing trend to send flowers to the home of the bereaved after the service. Some people also send flowers to the church in memory of the deceased. Flowers create a background of warmth and beauty which adds to the dignity and consolation of the service. Those who have attended services where there were no flowers have noted that something was

bereaved’s feelings in the patterns of community support which are psychologically beneficial. Flowers, however, express the inexpressible – they are symbolic.

missing – that the funeral was depressing. The funeral meets the bereaved’s need for support. Death throws people into despair and depression by separating them from one who has provided love, companionship, and security. The funeral and customs provide the means by which those close to them can give their support and share their suffering. The funeral period provides for the expression of sorrow. Only through talking about the past can the bereaved person realize the extent of the relationship with the deceased, and accept the loss and suffering. Only through weeping and talking to good listeners can they release their grief and feelings of guilt and hostility. Experts in grief therapy believe that it can be expressed best through rites, rituals, and ceremonies. The ceremony deals primarily with intellectual concepts and doesn’t fully engage the

125 Old Post Rd., Kittery, ME 207-439-4900 www.jspelkeyfuneralhome.com

There are three points to be stressed, finally, in connection with the tradition of funeral flowers. First, the role of flowers are both symbolic and aesthetic. They add great value to the richness and meaning of the ritual. Second, flowers represent sympathy extended to the bereaved. Third, flowers are sent to both the living and the dead. They are sent to the living as comfort and as tokens of respect for the deceased. We, at the JS Pelkey & Son and the Bernier Funeral Homes, hold the value of the work our local florists do in very high regard. We always encourage the families we serve to contact a local florist directly. Certainly there are national floral outlets that can be reached with a simple Google search but, honestly, the quality of these products are often substandard. Simply click the “Send Flowers” tab on our website and you will be directed to our list of trusted florists.

Rotary Club, joining on June 1 of 1987, less than a month after women were first allowed to join! She served as club president in 2014-2015 and was a longtime board member. Three times she was made a Paul Harris Fellow, and received the Service Above Self Award in 2013 for her demonstrated exemplary humanitarian service to others. When members of her club planned to take part in a Rotoplast service project in Central America to help fix cleft palates in children, she heard that post surgery, the children were wrapped in paper blankets, and this was not acceptable to her. So, with her love of quilting, she began “Wrap a Smile” Program through Rotary. To date, with the work of hundreds of volunteers, including many non-Rotarians, over 25,000 hand-quilted blankets were produced and distributed to children worldwide, that were then wrapped in their own quilt post-surgery. The most recent quilts made all included a panel with a “T” in her honor. Terry is survived by her daughter Kimberley Jane Long with husband John of Biddeford; granddaughter Hannah; cousins Nancy Greenwood and Carol Trombley Biagin; nephew Tim and niece Elizabeth. Visiting hours were held 3-6 p.m. on Thursday, June 4, at Bibber Memorial Chapel, 67 Summer St., Kennebunk. Friends were asked to bring their own mask to meet CDC guidelines as a limited number were available at the funeral home. A family burial service will be held later in Paucatuck Cemetery, West Springfield, MA. A celebration of Terry’s life will be held as soon as it is safe for all to gather. Should friends choose, memorial donations in her memory may be made to: Wells Rotary Club, PO Box 203, Wells ME 04090. Arrangements are in care of Bibber Memorial Chapel in Kennebunk (www.bibberfuneral.com).

Norman Gerard Vezeau, 76 WELLS – Norman Gerard Vezeau died peacefully in his sleep at York Hospital on May 5, 2020. Born in Rochester, NH on April 23,1944, he was the son of Richard A. Vezeau and Lucienne Nadeau Vezeau. He grew up on Wells Beach, graduating from Wells High School in 1962. He served in the Navy for four years and learned the trade of welding. He worked for many years in Boston and spent the last 18 years of his career at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, retiring in 2004. He then started his hobby of woodcarving at which he became a master. Birds were his specialty, from hummingbirds to eagles and many others. He met his wife Elizabeth at Wells Beach and they married in 1966. Four years later they welcomed a daughter who was always his “honey”. His granddaughter Sabrina brought him much joy, pride and laughter for the past 17 years. He was predeceased by his parents, sister Rachel Vezeau Mascis, and his infant son Peter. He is survived by his wife of 53 years Elizabeth Stearns Vezeau; daughter Josee Vezeau Lawrence with husband Mark; and his granddaughter Sabrina. He had many friends and family who will miss him greatly, especially his dog Carver. See VEZEAU page 29...

Cleaning measures include frequent disinfecting of common areas, equipment/treatment tables, surfaces, door handles and light switches. In addition, each practitioner engages in frequent hand washing before/after client sessions. Fresh linens and head cradles are also provided to each client. “Our waiting areas are

clear, and clients can call from their cars to alert each of us about their arrival,” said Toole. “During session work, we wear face masks and encourage our clients to do the same to minimize added vapor droplet transmissions.” In addition to the implementation of appropriate healthcare measures according to COVID-19 safety guidelines, Farrington said the team offers Bowenwork using remote technology. “Technology provides us with new ways to work with people,” she said. “We have also launched a YouTube channel

and have video updates on our website.” According to Brown, their foray into the digital realm underscores their collective belief that the general public should continue to “take care of themselves” and “not let things slide” during COVID-19. “If you were engaged in any kind of therapeutic services before COVID-19, or thinking about them, talk with a practitioner,” she said. “Most practitioners are ready to work in this ‘new normal.’” To learn more about Bowenwork, visit www.bowenworkforfascialhealth.com.

Animal Welfare Society KENNEBUNK Hi I’m Mia and I am so excited to meet you! My friends at AWS tell me I’m super sweet and I think that’s a purrrrrfect way to describe me. I love being around people, rubbing up to them, flicking my tail back and forth in admiration and rolling over for belly rubs! I have lovely long fur that I work to keep meticulously clean and I am very proud of my

good looks. When I’m not chilling with my people, you might find me perched in my favorite window, showing off my beauty to all those who walk by. I hope my new home has lots of windows for me! I wouldn’t mind sharing my home with another kitty, but please no dogs. Those barking lunatics make me very nervous. I am what they call a senior, at 11 years young, so a really ram-

Safe Haven Humane Society WELLS We are hoping to reopen our IGA Plaza thrift shop by mid June. Our beloved shop kitties – Hootie, Chilly Willy, Itty Bitty Boo Boo and Kanga – can’t wait to see you all return! Our new shop, Cattail Farm at 1784 Post Road, Wells, by August. Meantime, we ask that no donations be brought in without making an appointment in advance by calling 229-8314. Bring no donations to our IGA plaza shop at all, due to our pandemic protocol. Donations must remain untouched for 4 days before our volunteers can process them. Safe Haven is in great need of people who can help haul donated furniture to our new location in Wells. We need display pieces, like cupboards, shelves, bookcases and tables. Donors often ask us to come and pick up those items, but we have to forfeit because we have no trailer, truck or strong bodies to heft them. With the addition of our second thrift shop, we are recruiting additional volunteers to help at both locations, as well as cat caregivers for our shelter at 1420 Post Road. Although the

shelter remains closed for walkins, you can call and make an appointment to meet our available kitties. Oreo and Vinney have totally enchanted us. These two seven-year-old brothers were returned to Safe Haven due to a new baby in the family. They’re enjoying being the first kitties ever to enjoy our farmhouse at Cattail. They have full run of the house and love running up and down the stairs when we call them. They are everything you would want in a kitty: they’re beautiful, sweet, very affectionate, well behaved, and clean. All

bunctious family with young children might be too much for me. I’d be more than happy with a family with older kids or a chill person or couple who are friendly, affectionate and loving. they want is love nonstop. They beg for affection and companionship. Oreo is a handsome, longhaired black and white, and Vinney is the most handsome tiger I’ve ever laid eyes on. Anyone who adopts these two cats will be thrilled. Because they crave companionship, their ideal home is with someone who is either retired or works at home. Their prior owners said they feared for their baby but we think that older children who are animal lovers would be fine. We don’t know if they like dogs, but we feel they’ll be okay with another cat friendly kitty. I know I brag about every cat in our care, but Oreo and Vinney are so remarkable, you really must inquire if you are looking for a bonded pair. Please call 207-229-8314 to make an appointment to meet them. Pandemic protocol will be required for everyone’s safety. Thank you all! Stay healthy, love one another, and be kind to animals and all living creatures!

Games For Your Pets Nose! Smell is a dog’s strongest sense. One scientist linked a dog’s ability to smell to being able to identify just one rotten apple in two million barrels! The science seems to be telling us that dogs were born to sniff. Sniffing brings them pleasure and adds a huge amount of enrichment into their lives. And the great news for owners is that playing nose games with your dog can exhaust them just as much as physical exercise. And it’s not just dogs – cats, rabbits, and rodents enjoy using their sense of smell to play games and hunt down treats. April 26 was National Sense of Smell Day, so let’s celebrate those canine and feline noses. The Animal Welfare Society collected a number of puzzles and games on their website to encourage you to spend smelltime with your pets. Each week, our Humane Educator gives her students a fun challenge to complete at home. Last week’s challenge was to help us get in tune with how

~ News & Classifieds ~ Yearning for the Flus of Our Past By Jim Fabiano Throughout history our society has taken the worse of times and converted them to easier times through humor and comedy. I believe our present situation is no different. Some may take offense by this short essay but remember the ‘Willie and Joe Collection’ by Bill Mauldin that put smiles on our faces during the tragic times of World War II. In this spirit I hope to give a pause to the fear and tragedies of our present situation. There is actually a chance that the winter of 2020, may be coming to an end but late winter also represents the flu’s last chance to strike. For the past week I have been suffering through this tradition. Every time I am afflicted with the flu I remember times when getting the flu was not necessarily a horrific experience. There is nothing more pathetic than a small child suffering from the flu. The teary eyes and congested breath always bring sympathy to those who dare come close. In fact, as a child, all you had to do to get attention was to yield a little sigh or inhale a tiny sniffle. After that, you were showered with beautiful presents and nourishing, great-tasting foods. But alas, now as a respected 70-year old sick person, the glories of the flu are totally reversed. In fact, the only way I can achieve even the slightest attention is to fall down onto my knees in a coughing fit.

You are now told to stay away from all food in the house for even to gaze upon the family’s stock would be reason for the disease to spread throughout the entire home. Food is only meant for the healthy and the young. A sickly older person wanting food only shows that he or she isn’t sick at all. Televisions are meant for the healthy. For how dare anyone who is truly sick come into the family room to watch TV? Any sickly adult who would dare to do such a thing is just hoping to inflict upon his family the very plague that he or she is now faking. Pillows are meant for the healthy head. Anyone above the age of 21 inflicted with the flu is condemned to lie on the extra pillow that was rotting in the upstairs closet only to be brought out for the sickly adult or visiting notso-favorite aunt. It seems that to touch a sick adult is to touch death itself. You are told to “put the fan on!” or “you’re in the bathroom again?” “Get away from me and my children” is also a command heard many times by the sickly adult. Also an occasional “you sex fiend” is exclaimed. You see, a hug asked for by the sick adult immediately defines him as being a “sick” adult. The sick adult lives under a completely different set of rules than the sick child. The child inflicted with the flu is a pathetic

WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Angus King (IME), and U.S. Representatives Chellie Pingree (D-ME) and Jared Golden (D-ME), announced recently that the Economic Development Administration has awarded $2,000,000 to the State of Maine to establish a new three-year project to develop an industry-led roadmap and action plan called “Maine’s Marine Living Resource Economy Initiative”. Overseen by the Maine Technology Institute and FocusMaine, the initiative will bring together industry leaders from both commercial fishing and aquaculture industries, including Maine fishermen, marine researchers, scientists, and educasight. The adult with the same affliction is just pathetic. Throughout history our society has taken the worse of times and converted them to easier times through humor and comedy. Since as a nation we are going to survive these times like all other times in our history we may as well project a small giggle in order to make this survival a bit survivable.
