17th Annual Eliot Antique Tractor & Engine Show

ELIOT – This weekend (July 27-29), the 17th Annual Eliot Antique Tractor & Engine Show will be held at the Raitt Homestead Farm Museum at 2077 State Rd, RT 103, in Eliot. This is a fun-filled weekend for the entire family. This year they are featuring Oliver Tractors & Gilson engines. “It’s a labor of love,” said Lisa Raitt when describing the weekend. “It’s an all-volunteer board. No one gets a dime.” Visitors can enjoy antique tractor and engine displays, working demonstrations including a shingle mill, a 1920’s Hildreth wood splitter, pumps and
engine displays. Ladies are invited to try their hand at the Ladies’ Skillet Toss. There will be tractor parades, kids pedal tractor pulls, garden tractor pulling, antique stone boat pulling, and transfer sled pulling all during the weekend. Folks can visit the Colonial Encampment and take a spin on the barrel tractor ride. On Friday night, there will be a benefit auction, and throughout the weekend there are raffles, entertainment, great food, homemade desserts and an artisans’ alley. The show is sponsored by the Raitt Homestead Museum, a non-profit formed in 1996. Raitt said it takes months of preparation for such a large
show. “There have been thirty to forty people on site for a few weeks now, some camping. We have to hay the fields. Now that we have the car show in June, we hay them early. But now we have to mow the eighteen acres every five days until the tractors show,” she said. “We have to haul out all the antiques. And we have hundreds of exhibitors. There’ll be quite a few people here this weekend,” she said. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the event goes directly to the preservation, restoration, and maintenance of the See TRACTORS page 4...

LEBANON – Jon Shutt, author of “Blood Red Dawn” will be at the Martha Sawyer Community Library at 7 p.m. Shutt will have an open reading as well as a book signing. He is a teacher in the MSAD60 district. He has served ten years in the Army National Guard. He was deployed in 2004 to Iraq. In 2009 he was deployed to Afghanistan. “After these two tours, it was suggested that he seek counseling for PTSD symptoms. Instead, he wrote poems. Seventy-two of his poems appear in this collection. “Searing, soaring, gut-wrenching, sardonic, and philosophical. It’s hard to read this eloquent work without holding your breath because of the immediacy with which each
poem places you right in the soldier’s shoes,” according to a press release. All proceeds from royalties of “Blood Red Dawn” will be donated to the United Service Organizations (USO). A copy of this work can be purchased at the event for $12. ...TRACTORS from page 1 thirty-three acre Farm Museum buildings, property and equipment, which enables them to continue to educate future generations and the community at large about farming history.

nebunk and both towns share the Kennebunk River,” notes Sarah LaChance, Chairman of Kennebunkport’s commission. “We all benefit from a healthy approach to the care of our lawns and gardens. Good practices about the use of pesticides are easy and less expensive in the long run.” Alex Mendelsohn, chairman of Kennebunk’s commission, describes how the collaboration between the two commissions is expected to foster wider understanding of how pesticides affect the environment. “While both towns have pesticide usage policies on the books, many citizens are unaware of these policies,” he said. Maine’s pesticide usage went from 800,000 pounds annually about ten years ago to well over 4 million pounds a year now. That works out to as much as three pounds of active ingredient per non-forested acre. “Off-the-shelf pesticides are widely available at retail stores,” adds Mendelsohn. Official pesticide usage policies at both towns now cover townowned lands, focusing on using established best practices for application, and the consolidated school district has its own pesticide policy. “We’re now expanding our awareness campaign to the wider community,” Mendelsohn says. “These policies stem from a so-called Precautionary Principle that was spelled out a decade ago by scientists at the Wingspread Conference. “The Precautionary Principle states that that when an activity poses a threat to the environment or to human health, precautions should be taken, even if some cause and effect relationships are not fully established.” Pests can include undesirable terrestrial and aquatic plants, as well as insects, fungi, bacteria, viruses, and nematodes. Rodents, birds, and even some animals and microorganisms can also be declared as pests under some Federal and state laws. Common examples of pests in turf grass are crabgrass, knotweed, poison ivy, chinch bugs, grubs, and a variety of plant pathogens. The use of pesticides to deal with these problems can affect people, pets, well water, surface water, and terrestrial and aquatic wildlife.

When the American Revolution broke out in 1775, all Kittery Point property of the Pepperrell family (who had remained loyal to the British Crown) and the fort were confiscated by local citizens. Because British war ships had destroyed or captured several towns along the Maine coast and were expected to attack Kittery and Portsmouth, there was intense excitement and great alarm, and every effort was made to be ready for the coming enemy. The Fort was put in order and well garrisoned.

Maine Breast Cancer Coalition Gets $50k Grant MAINE – The Maine Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure recently granted $50,000 to the Maine Breast Cancer Coalition’s Support Service Fund. The fund assists low-income, uninsured, or underinsured applicants who don’t qualify for other assistance programs. The fund provides financial assistance for a wide range of essential services or items including, but not limited to, screening and diagnostic services, treat-
ment costs, prescriptions, prostheses, lymphedema compression garments, temporary living expenses for people in treatment, and treatment-related transportation costs. The Support Service Fund is a unique program that meets the applicant at her or his point of need, providing a “safety net” for Maine residents who have exhausted other possibilities for breast cancer or breast health related assistance. Examples of the types of assistance MBCC provides
through the Komen grant include: A 24-year-old woman from Cumberland County had been recently diagnosed with breast cancer. She was not able to work during her four-month treatment regimen because her job is physically demanding, and she was having trouble keeping up with household bills. The Support Service Fund awarded $437.50 for rent and $162.50 toward utilities. A 36-year-old woman from Hancock County was diagnosed with breast cancer and had $1,745 in medical bills for chemo meds and IV treatments which were not covered by her insurance. The Support Service Fund awarded $1,000 toward the payment of these non-covered bills. A 55-year-old woman from Aroostook County is self employed and has health insurance with a $10,000 deductible. She did not qualify for the Maine Breast and Cervical Health Program and needed a mammogram. The Support Service Fund awarded $261.90 for a mammogram and reading. The Maine Affiliate of Susan G. Komen invested over $346,000 in community grants throughout the state of Maine in 2012, in addition to the mission activities of the foundation itself. Further information about

Each year through its Customer Ballot, Kennebunk Savings asks its customers to help direct a percentage of the bank’s annual charitable giving and, based on their votes, distributes checks to the top 125 vote-getting nonprofit organizations.

York Hospital Staff Donates to Food Drive to Benefit York County Food Rescue YORK – The Choose To Be Healthy Partnership assisted by York Hospital Junior Volunteer program recently organized a food drive to benefit York County Food Rescue. York Hospital employees donated 215 pounds of healthy non-perishable food. “Many families rely on school breakfast and lunch for their children. With school out for the summer, food pantries and meal sites face an increased need for food,” said Jodi Bissonnette, director of York County Food Rescue. York County Food Rescue provides food to fortyseven pantries, meal sites and group homes including Table of Plenty weekly suppers in Berwick, York and Kittery and all the food pantries in southern York County. Choose To Be Healthy Partnership, a local Healthy Maine Partnership, works with food security organizations to promote food choices for healthy weight management.

Of the $80,000 being distributed through the Ballot, human needs organizations received 41 percent, civic organizations (such as libraries and animal organizations) received 36 percent, environmental organizations received 10 percent, arts organizations received 8 percent, and educational organizations received 5 percent.

How Caregivers Can Take A Guilt-Free Vacation YORK COUNTY – We all want, and even need, a chance to get away from it all and recharge our energies. A summer vacation is a rite of modern life, but for the nearly ten million Americans who are currently caring for both children and an elderly parent - the so-called Sandwich Generation - the idea of going on vacation offers up little more than a stressful dilemma: How can the family possibly take a trip when an aging parent is not up for traveling or for staying home alone? The short answer is that the large majority of these families simply don’t leave. Instead, they opt to survive another year of stress and the daily grind without taking a vacation. And they take their chances on burning out and becoming ill-equipped to properly care for their aging parents and even their own children. Some caregivers might have the luxury of calling on a sibling or another family member to step in and care for their elderly parent. Or the family might split up during the summertime, with one parent (or step parent) taking
the kids on a trip while the other stays home with Grandma or Grandpa. Others will look into hiring outside help to provide round-the-clock, in-home care, but this option can be so expensive (and sometimes difficult to find, especially if the senior has dementia or mobility issues) that some families may only have enough funds left over to enable a short, local getaway. Many, however, will simply stay put, denying themselves a much-needed emotional breather and foregoing the important parent/child bonding opportunities that a lengthy, quality vacation can provide. Fortunately, there is a solution available for these families: respite care. A relatively new but increasingly popular program offered by some assisted living communities, respite care allows families to book their loved one for a stay of a few days or even several weeks at a residential care facility. Of course, not all respite care programs are created equal. Some are better than others, but in the ideal situation, this is what you can expect. Respite care acts as the perfect blend of luxury hotel and
Josh Mirick Personal Training
home-health care, providing just the right mix of amenities and services for the aging, sometimes ailing, senior. Consider the following benefits that top-notch respite care offers: Guests get personal care. On-staff nurses and/or care personnel at assisted living communities are available 24/7 to monitor the health and well-being of respite care guests, dispense medication on schedule, help with bathing and other hygiene matters, and ensure that they stay on target with all required exercises and therapies. These staff members are fully acquainted with the unique concerns that some seniors contend with, including memory issues and the physical changes that can arise from a stroke or Parkinson’s disease, and they are capable of providing the understanding, compassion, and medical know-how that is required for proper care. Luxury. Respite guests stay in elegant, well-appointed apartments with comfortable beds, sitting areas, television, phone, reading materials, and Internet access. Amenities are similar to what’s found in nice hotels. For example, guests may have an on-staff concierge available to answer questions and cater to resident needs, massage therapists to soothe aching muscles, a salon to help the resident feel beautiful, and senior-friendly exercise rooms. Some communities are even pet-friendly, allowing seniors to bring their dogs

Families don’t have to be concerned that their loved one might be eating a TV dinner or hot dogs and beans for the fourth time in two days. Respite guests - ike full-time residents - eat fresh-from-the-kitchen, nutritious meals (and snacks) prepared by an on-site chef and served in a well-appointed dining area (or in their room, if preferred). It’s engaging. Unlike with a home-health care arrangement, a respite guest can interact with other seniors and make

Or they can simply enjoy themselves in a sunroom or parlor, playing cards and games with other residents, sitting down to the piano or picking up some other musical instrument they once played or raising their voice in a singalong. It’s affordable. Despite all these amenities, respite care is almost always less expensive than round-the-clock, homehealth care, and it’s typically priced at an all-inclusive daily rate, with no extras charged for meals, activities and personal care. Think of it as a luxury cruise without having to get aboard a ship. Keep in mind that setting up a short-term stay for your loved one is not quite as easy as calling up a hotel a week ahead of time and reserving a room. Prior to a stay, a respite guest must provide a physician’s report, take a TB test (in some states), and undergo a nurse assessment to ensure that the community fully understands and is prepared for - the guest’s care needs. The family also needs to prepare themselves and their aging loved one for the shortterm stay. The family should take time to do their research See RESPITE page 15...

Blurry Vision? It Could Be Retinal Detachment There are a number of eye conditions that can affect vision. Many people have not heard about retinal detachment, nor know what it entails. What’s Retinal Detachment? Retinal detachment is when the light-sensitive part of the eye -- the retina -- separates from its supporting layers in the eye.
...RESPITE from page 14 on the communities in their area based on such criteria as reputation, number of staff, quality of care and activities, and experience with residents who have similar health concerns, and then take a tour. No matter how nice the community, though, some seniors will balk at the idea of respite care, a fact that can lead to anxiety for them and guilt for the rest of the family. Administrators at senior living communities suggest the adult caretaker bring their parent in for lunch, a tour and a prearranged chance to get to know some friendly residents with similar backgrounds and interests. That type of preparation can dispel any preconceived notions and apprehension. For the senior, a shortterm stay offers a unique brand of vacation. They, too, take on the stress that comes from being part of a busy household with overworked caregivers, so this break provides them a chance to relax and have time to themselves in new surroundings, enjoy a bit of pampering, make friends, take up a new activity, or explore a hobby that they used to enjoy long ago. In most cases, family members report back that their elderly parent is much happier and content after a respite stay, and many are pleasantly surprised to find that their loved one actually sees real improvements in their health. One reason for this is that many seniors stay connected with friends made during their stay or continue with activities or hobbies picked up while away from home, activities they

couldn’t or refused to do before their stay. Adult caregivers, meanwhile, get to enjoy and reconnect with their spouse and children away from the pressures of the job, bills, and daily living without worry over whether or not their aging parent is being adequately cared for while the family is away. And the children get from their parents high-quality time and attention. Many adult children entrust their elderly family members to an assisted living community while they go on a second honeymoon or take a couples cruise, treat the kids to a week at Disneyland or a winter ski trip, and attend family reunions and weddings. In fact, many Sandwich Generation members rely on respite care on a regular basis. They recognize that, as they try to be all things to all family members, a vacation is not an indulgence but a must - a revitalizing break that provides the emotional and physical rest they need to cope long-term with the stress of ongoing caregiving. When they get back to their regular life, they’ll be able to go on being effective, patient and loving in their relationships with their aging parents—and their children. And they’ll see their aging loved ones thrive because they’ve had a luxury vacation, too. Story provided by Dwayne J. Clark, the founder and CEO of Aegis Living, a community of 28 living facilities in Washington, California, and Nevada, and the author of “My Mother, My Son: A true story of love, determination, and memories… lost.”

Purpose of the Retina The retina receives images seen through the eye and transmits them through the optic nerve to the brain. The image the retina receives is in reverse, and the brain corrects it to right-side up. Essentially the retina processes light and imagery the way film in a camera would. Symptoms of Retinal Detachment Retinal detachment often occurs without any underlying cause, though it can be attributed to eye trauma or a disease like diabetes. When retinal detachment occurs, there would be a tear or hole in the retina
into which eye fluids leak. This causes the separation of the transparent tissues of the retina from other tissues. Minor retinal detachment may cause no symptoms. If the macula, the part of the retina responsible for fine vision, becomes compromised, then central vision can be severely affected. Other symptoms of retinal detachment include: * blurred vision * floaters in the eye * shadow or blindness in one part of the visual field * bright flashes of light in peripheral vision An optometrist or opthalmologist will do a series of vision tests during a routine exam. If retinal detachment is suspected, further tests may be conducted. These tests can include: * Electroretinogram: A record of the electrical currents in the retina. * Intraocular pressure test: Measures the pressure inside of the eye. This test is usually performed to check for glaucoma.
* Retinal photography:This involves a fluroescein angiography, which uses a special dye and camera to look at blood flow in the retina. Treatment Retinal detachment is an urgent problem that requires prompt medical attention. Many detachments can be repaired with surgery in a doctor’s office. More extensive procedures may have to be done in an operating room. Vision loss can occur if the reattachment of the retina is unsuccessful or if the macula has been detached. If a person experiences floaters, bright flashing lights or blurred vision, he or she should make an appointment for an eye exam to rule out retinal detachment.

Currently, she is pursuing a Masters Degree in Fine Arts at the Heartwood College of Art, in Kennebunk. She began her professional photography career while working as a news assistant and assistant editor for the internal newspaper at Unionmutual Life Ins. Co., now UNUM, in Portland. Through the years, Lemieux has shared her artistic passion by teaching art in the Arundel school system, at River Tree Arts, and privately for both children and adults. The current exhibit is the culmination of Lemieux’s journey to reduce the individual personality of a flower to its simplest terms. In many instances, the form of the flower is perceived through its structure and design, allowing the image to emphasize the architectural aspects of the subject. In other instances, the form is established not through structure but through color, which leads the eye to a more abstract revelation with closer inspection. A member of The Hive Gallery & Performing Art Space and The Art Guild of the Kennebunks, Lemieux has recently been accepted as a member at The Barn Gallery/ Ogunquit Art Association. In addition to her exhibit at the Kennebunk Free Library, Lemieux is also exhibiting “The Beauty of Decline ~ The Way Way Store Photographs” at the Saco Museum until September 9.

No Dud: Legalization of Fireworks is Economic ‘Boom’ for Maine AUGUSTA – Dozens of Maine people are back to work and millions of dollars in new revenue have been generated thanks to the legalization of fireworks. For the first time in more than 63 years, the sale and use of fireworks is permitted in Maine. “This has always been about opening up a new market, creating jobs and sustaining economic growth in Maine,” said Governor Paul LePage who enthusiastically signed the bill into law more than a year ago. Since fireworks became legal on January 1st of this year, a dozen new retail stores have opened in eleven communities all the way from Presque Isle to Scarborough. Steve Marson, owner of Pyro City Fireworks, operates five stores in: Manchester, Winslow, Edgecomb, Ellsworth and Presque Isle. So far Marson has hired more than forty full time employees. “Revenues have been better than expected,” said Marson, who is projecting close to $4 million dollars in revenue this year alone. “I’m happy about the re-
sponse and believe that there is a good future for fireworks in Maine and that it will have a positive economic impact,” said William Weimer, owner of Phantom Fireworks in Scarborough. Phantom employs upwards of five full timers and roughly seventy people on a seasonal basis. The legalization of fireSee BOOM page 36...
Financial Tips for Newly Single Women Within a marriage, a man and a woman’s financial circumstances are generally pretty much equal. But if a divorce occurs, the woman’s situation tends to be somewhat more challenging than that of her ex-spouse. And that’s why, during this major life transition, you may want to meet with a professional financial advisor to go over your spending needs and your cash flow, so that you know what you absolutely need today - and how you can plan for tomorrow. Before we get into some possible steps you can take, let’s look at some of the reasons that women may fare worse than men, financially speaking, following a divorce: Lower income - The average woman’s family income drops by 37 percent after divorce, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In many cases, divorce exacerbates a situation in which women were already trailing men in earnings. In fact, women still only earn 77 cents for each dollar earned by men, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Smaller retirement accounts - The average balance on women’s defined contribution plans (such as 401(k) plans) is only 60 percent of men’s average balances, according to LIMRA, a financial services research organization. Of course, “averages” are just that - averages. But whether you recognize yourself in the above numbers or not, consider these suggestions: Create an emergency fund. Try to put six months’ to a year’s worth of living expenses in a liquid account. Once you’ve established this emergency fund, you won’t have to dip into longterm investments to pay for unexpected costs, such as an expensive car repair, a new furnace or a

large medical bill. Contribute as much as you can afford to your retirement accounts. Even if you will eventually receive some of your ex-spouse’s retirement funds, you need to take full advantage of your own savings opportunities - because it’s pretty hard to save “too much” for retirement. If money is tight, it won’t always be easy, but contribute as much as you can to your 401(k) or similar employer-sponsored retirement plan. At a minimum, put in enough to earn the employer’s match, if one is offered. Rebalance your investment portfolio. If you are now investing for yourself, you’ll want to take a close look at your asset mix to make sure it is appropriate for your situation. For example, your risk tolerance may be quite different than that of your ex-spouse’s. So if you now have total control over an investment portfolio, you need to make sure it reflects your needs and preferences. Consequently, you may need to “rebal-
ance” your holdings. Above all, get some help. As mentioned above, now is a good time to meet with a financial advisor. And if you don’t have much experience in managing your finances, you may even find it helpful to work with a trust company, which can collaborate with your financial provider to manage your assets and also provide a variety of other functions, including bill payment and record keeping. A trust company’s services can prove especially valuable to you and your family should you ever become incapacitated. Unfortunately, a divorce may leave you feeling “at sea” in many areas of your life. But by following the above suggestions, you can at least help keep your financial ship in calmer waters.

Litchfield’s Restaurant: Third Time’s A Charm Ann Legg (courtesy photo)
Local Broker Achieves Accredited Real Estate Professional Designation KENNEBUNK – Ann Legg, a broker associate in the Coldwell Banker residential brokerage office in Kennebunk, has earned the “accredited real estate professional” designation by successfully completing the comprehensive SuccessBuilder training program, designed and conducted by the Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Career and Educational Development department. SuccessBuilder is a threemonth intensive training program, which involves in-classroom skill development, online learning sessions, and industry specific field assignments. Designees must also meet specific production requirements, including the closing of three real estate transactions. As a part of the course, Legg learned how to best assist both buyer and seller clients in making sound business decisions, sharing industry best practices and current market trends, and the use of cutting edge tools to market homes. She has also demonstrated expertise in the use of Coldwell Banker residential brokerage’s transaction management system, HomeBaseSM, which allows clients to virtually access critical tasks and documents associated with their real estate transaction. “Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage is committed to providing our sales associates with the opportunity to build their skills across all facets of the business. The SuccessBuilder program achieves this by providing sales associates with comprehensive, hands-on training experiences,” said Pat Villani, president of Coldwell Banker residential brokerage in New England. “By earning the accredited real estate professional designation, Ann is equipped to provide the very best service to her clients.”

For more information, call 207-646-3891 or visit www.bournebedandbreakfast.com. (courtesy photo)
WELLS – Tod Callioras and Sue Calabrese, co-owners of Litchfield’s restaurant, keep business all in the family. Their parents owned Port Gardens in Kennebunkport from 1986 to 1992, and the brother-sister team is tackling the challenge of restoring Litchfield’s restaurant to its glory days of the past. The Route 1 restaurant is now in its third ownership, but Tod and Sue are convinced the third time’s a charm. Callioras, who graduated from Kennebunk High School in 1989, was doing a consulting job in Arundel last October when he drove by and saw that Litchfield’s was for sale. “I was working for Sawyer’s Dairy Bar,” he said. “Before that, I was living at Sawyer’s Mills Apartments.” The two companies are not related, but Callioras didn’t make anything of the ironic connection until he saw the For Sale sign and realized another irony. “Sawyer’s Dairy Bar is owned by Larry Litchfield,” he said. “So we knew we had to keep the name.” Some changes are afoot at
C&S Toy Chest Joins the Chamber OGUNQUIT – C&S Toy Chest, located at 116 Perkins Cove Road in Ogunquit, joined the Ogunquit Chamber recently. Pictured here is Lisa Aubin of Kennebunk Savings Bank, selectman David Barton, co-owner Connie Griffin, Ogunquit chamber president Karen Arel, co-owner Susan Wensel, Connie’s granddaughters: Emily Krumsiek, Annie Krumsiek, and Esme Ashworth, Ogunquit police chief Pat Arnaudin. For more information, call (207) 6468697 (courtesy photo)
Litchfield’s, but the new co-owners say they don’t want to make too many changes too fast. “The last owners had a video game room next to the bar that we took out. And they had a pizza restaurant; we stopped that,” Callioras said. The juxtaposition of kids’ games and a bar didn’t make sense to them, and they felt like the restaurant might be trying to do too much by serving pizza on top of a full menu. They did add several new menu items, however, including the notorious bacon peanut butter burger. And a popular pub game with the crowd is the bean bag toss on their patio. “We’re not sure what we want to do with the video game room. We’re going to get through the summer, and we’ll see whether we need more seating for dining, maybe make it a private function room, or even a room for darts or something,” he said. “Whatever it is, we want to do it right.” Litchfield’s butchers and grinds its own meat, makes its own sauces, and marinades its own beef. Tod and Sue are also bringing back a popular staple from the past: oysters. “Oysters were huge in the past. We have raw, fried, and char-grilled oysters here,” he said. Another aspect they retained from the previous owners is the 9/11 Memorial in front of the restaurant. “We definitely wanted to keep that,” he said. “People are bringing in police and fire patches from all over. We have one from New Zealand.” Litchfield’s offers a police, fire, and military discount of ten percent, supporting men and women in public service. They are open year-round.

KITTERY, ME – Family enterprises build up communities by sustaining the business traditions, skills, and leadership that are the strengths of past generations. Two multigenerational businesses teaming up in a modern environment with traditional work ethic are UCI Architects and Wu & Associates Inc. Ignatius Wang and daughter Fon have run a parallel architecture and design course to Raymond Wu and son Kirby’s construction and engineering that has crossed paths numerous times with award honors and trade associations. The latest intersection, a joint project at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine, highlights the strength of such a partnership and creates an ideal opportunity for the two firms to show how adept multigenerational businesses are at meeting challenges in a dynamic field. The $1.6 million designbuild project focuses on the historic restoration of Building 55 so that it may remain an integral part of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Historic District while meeting LEED® Silver certified energy efficiency requirements. (LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.) The compatibility of preservation and sustainable design lies in the conservation of embodied energy and reuse of existing building materials. In the same way, Fon and Kirby hope to use the hard-earned expertise of their fathers to cultivate new success in the burgeoning field of historic sustainability. “Historic Preservation and sustainable design is often seen as being at odds. Building owners and architects find themselves choosing the priorities of one to meet points for the other. The renovation of Building 55 will illustrate preservation and sustainability working hand-in-hand to realize the goals of ecological sustainability, economic sustainability and cultural sustainability,” said Fon Wang, of UCI Architects. “Wu & Associates has received recognition for leadership in preservation and sustainability. The current opportunity to work with the Navy and UCI to showcase sustainable preservation is quite exciting,” said Kirby Wu, of Wu & Associates, Inc. THANK YOU ST. JUDE: May the Sacred Heart of Jesus be adored, glorified, loved and preserved throughout the world now and forever. Sacred Heart of Jesus, pray for us. St. Jude, worker of miracles, pray for us. St. Jude, helper of the hopeless, pray for us. Say this prayer 9 times a day, by the 8th day your prayers will be answered. It has never been known to fail. Publication must be promised and done.

~ Ask The Computer Lady ~ Dear Computer Lady, Are laptop cooling pads necessary if one uses the laptop on a hard, flat surface. Thank you for your outstanding site, Abby Dear Abby, There are a lot of factors to take into consideration when trying to decide if you need a laptop cooling pad. You need to think about the temperature of the environment you are using the laptop in, you need to think about which laptop brand and type you are using, the age of the laptop, and how hot the laptop gets when you are running it. Let’s take a look at some of these factors. First, where do you use your laptop? Are you using it in a nice cool, air-conditioned area where the temperature never gets above 75 degrees? If so, you would not need a laptop cooling pad as much as if you were using it in a hot environment. Now, let’s look at the laptop itself. Some brands tend to run hotter than others, and some processors tend to run hotter as well. I don’t have a list of laptops that will tell you which laptop runs hotter than others, but you can probably tell if your laptop is getting too warm when it runs, and you can also search for your laptop model online for comments from others who use the same model as you. The age of your laptop matters as well. The older a computer gets, the less efficient the hardware will be, and the warmer it will get when it runs. If your older laptop is getting hot when you run it, you might be able to extend the life of the computer a little bit by running it on a laptop cooling pad every time you use it. Next time you turn your laptop on, pay attention to how hot it gets. If there are places on the laptop that feel hot to your touch, or the air blowing out through the vents feels hot to you, a cooling pad would probably be a good idea, and it will probably extend the life of your laptop. Elizabeth Hi Elizabeth, Just wondering... is there a way to save the contents of a website? I created a web site when we started the adoption of my daughter. It contains several pages, but I haven’t updated it in a couple of years. I now maintain a “Blogspot” page instead. I pay very little for the site (runs me less than $50 a year) but no longer want to keep it running. I plan on canceling the hosting of the page, but before I do that, I want to save everything on it. Especially the timeline I created for each step of the adoption process. Is there a way to save it all like a multi-page document? Here is the web site: jo-
diandtomshaw.com Any help would be appreciated. All the Best, Jodi Dear Jodi, There is a way to download a website to your computer. I sometimes do this to save information. Here is how to download a website: Internet Explorer. 1. Go to the first page you want to save in your website. 2. Tap the “Alt” key on your keyboard to display the menu bar, then click on “File.” 3. In the File menu, click on “Save As...” 4. A dialog box will open allowing you to select the location you want to save your page to. Make sure “Webpage, complete” is selected in the “Save as type:” box. 5. Click the “Save” button. 6. Repeat for each page on the site you want to save. Google Chrome: 1. Go to the first page you want to save in your website. 2. Click on the small wrench icon in the upper-right corner of the window. 3. Click on “Save Page As” in the menu. 4. A dialog box will open allowing you to select the location you want to save your page to. Make sure “Webpage, complete” is selected in the “Save as type:” box. 5. Click the “Save” button. 6. Repeat for each page on the site you want to save. I hope this helps you save your precious memories! I enjoyed reading some of the information on your site as I wrote this answer. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, How do I get rid of all the unwanted pictures that have been put on my computer? These pics are of family members and I have way too many of them. Please help me with my computer. Thanx, Mary Dear Mary, In this age of digital cameras, it is all to easy to accumulate many photos on your computer. While many of these pictures can be priceless, I have seen my share of folders full of pictures of the sky, or grass, or blurry practice photos.
You didn’t specify if you wanted to get rid of all the pictures on your computer, or just specific photos that you didn’t want, so I will give you directions for both. To get rid of all the pictures on your computer, just find the folders that contain the photos, right click on the folder, and click “Delete” in the context menu that appears. This will get rid of the folder and all the photos contained in that folder. If you want to go through the pictures and choose which photos you want to keep and which ones you want to delete, you will need to open the folder to view the individual photos. When you double click on a folder to open it, you want to be using a view that allows you to see a thumbnail image of each picture without actually opening the photos. To do this, click on the “View” menu and select either “Large Icons” or “Extra Large Icons.” Now that you can see your pictures, click once on the first one you want to delete, then hold down the “Ctrl” key on your keyboard and click once on each additional picture that you want to delete. When you have selected a few pictures, press the “Delete” key on your keyboard to delete all the highlighted pictures. Repeat this process until you have deleted all the pictures you want to get rid of in that folder, and then move on to the next folder full of pictures. I hope this helps you clean out your computer.

relationships with email messages, sometimes without even realizing how strong those relationships are. For those of us who are connecting with our customers online, email can be a powerful way to build a strong connection with them. The good news is that there is an easier way to send emails on a regular basis than writing a completely new newsletter each week. For some of my customer contacts, I use an email service provided by Aweber Communications. Aweber provides me with opt-in e-mail marketing software that allows me to set up messages in advance, and send them to my customers when I want them to be sent. Either by specifying a specific time and date, or by setting up a series of emails that are sent over time. When you use AWeber, you create a list of subscribers, write your e- mail messages to that list, and set up the responder to send the messages to your list on a regular basis. This makes e-mail marketing easy to set up, it saves you time, and makes your marketing efforts easy to review. Sending newsletters with A weber helps you to build lasting, profitable relationships with your customers, increases referrals and word-of-mouth marketing, and raises the average customer value. Give AWeber a try today -

Ogunquit Playhouse Presents the New Boston Red Sox Version of Damn Yankees!
OGUNQUIT – The devilishly sexy Damn Yankees! (the new Boston Red Sox version) is on stage at the Ogunquit Playhouse. It began July 25 and runs through August 18. A bewitching seductress, America’s favorite pastime and Satan himself mix it up in this popular Adler and Ross musical comedy starring Carson Kressley as Applegate. The Ogunquit Playhouse has put a new twist on the familiar tale - the baseball action moves from Washington D.C. to Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox and brings the rivalry between the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox off the field and on to the stage. To fuel the decades-old rivalry between the two veteran teams and to pay homage to Fenway’s 100th Anniversary, Tony Award

winning playwright Joe DiPietro has updated the book for the Ogunquit production. Die-hard Red Sox fan Joe Boyd offers his soul to this devil in return for “one long-ball hitter.” Applegate uses his power to turn Joe into a young, strong, handsome, longball hitter with supernatural athletic abilities. As the team begins to win, Joe looks for a loophole to get out of the deal. The devilish dealmaker pulls out all the stops, most notably, the sizzling hot temptress Lola.

Award Winners at Art Guild of the Kennebunks for July KENNEBUNK – Guy Corriero, juror for the July Exhibition of the Art Guild of the Kennebunks (AGK), selected the top three prize winners. He awarded First Place to Jan Van Tassell of Waterboro for his watercolor entitled, “Along the Shore.” Corriero said Van Tassell’s painting “utilizes the intrinsic quality of watercolor, allowing it to do its own thing, while controlling certain areas at the same time. (It) captures the viewer and leads them into the painting. Beautiful color and execution.” Through the month of July, Jan and his wife Linda Van Tassell will be exhibiting at the Port Gallery in Union Square, 24 Ocean Avenue, in Kennebunkport. Corriero gave Second Place to Wolfgang Ertl of Hampton, New Hampshire, for his pastel entitled “Marsh Tranquility” and Richard Winslow of Waterboro, Maine, for Third Place for his oil painting entitled “The Meadow.” Corriero works in both oils and watercolors in his studio and en plein air.

“The Art of the Steal” Showing at the Barn Gallery OGUNQUIT – The art film series, “Art Videos at the Gallery,” sponsored by Ogunquit Performing Arts and Ogunquit Arts Collaborative, continues the 11th season with the presentation of “The Art of the Steal,” at the Barn Gallery in Ogunquit at 7:30 pm on Wednesday, August 1. Admission is free. As in previous years, there will be discussion about the film before the showing by members of the Ogunquit Art Association. “The Art of the Steal” is a real-life David and Goliath story, a tale of suspense in which hangs the fate of some of the most sublime works of art ever created. It has been called the greatest theft of art since the World War Ii. Founded in 1922 by wealthy American drug developer and art collector, Albert C. Barnes, the Barnes Foundation became the finest collection of paintings by Renoir, Cezanne, Matisse, Van Gogh and other masters. The Barnes Foundation was envisioned by Barnes as an art school, not a public museum, but ever since Barnes’ death in 1951, the fight over its future has been underway. On one side are the artists, historians, and lawyers defending Barnes’ wish that the entire collection (valued at over $25 billion) never be moved, loaned, or sold. On the other side,
Jonathan Edwards To Appear in Ogunquit OGUNQUIT – Jonathan Edwards, who topped the charts with the classic hit “Sunshine” in the 1970s, will perform songs from his latest release when he appears at Jonathan’s Restaurant on July 28 at 7 p.m. “My Love Will Keep” is Edwards’s his first studio album in fourteen years. “Jonathan Edwards’ voice sounds wonderful, maybe better than ever,” wrote Country Music People’s Paul Riley. “He sings with purity and passion. Someone of the huge talent, compassion, passion and style of Jonathan Edwards should not have a fourteenyear gap between albums. The world needs more Jonathan Edwards discs.” Edwards remains one of the premiere troubadours of the past forty years, who debuted in many hearts and minds with the 1971 release of his hit single, “Sunshine,” the first gold record for thenfledgling Capricorn Records. His debut album for Capricorn and subsequent releases on Atlantic Records and other labels (including his own imprint), showcased the Virginia-raised artist’s country, folk and bluegrass influences and demonstrated his penchant for writing
songs of both honesty and poignancy.
Edwards now resides in Cape Elizabeth, Maine.

On Tuesday, August 21, dine at Margarita’s on St. John Street, Portland and 15 percent of the evening’s sales will be donated to the Animal Welfare Society. Enjoy great food, a great atmosphere, and support a great cause all at the same time. You must mention beforehand that you are there for the fundraiser. See you there! “Smokey” This little cutie pie is Smokey. He is an adorable fourmonth-old Dachshund Mix who loves everyone. Smokey would love to share his new home with other dogs, cats, and people of all ages. He can’t wait to find a family to play, learn, and just have a great life with. If you are interested in adopting this little darling, please stop in and meet Smokey. “Colleen” Meet Colleen, an absolutely darling 2-and-a-half year old cat. Colleen may look a little rugged, but that’s far from her personality. Colleen is a sweet, affectionate, playful gal. She’ll never pass up an opportunity to ask people for some attention. Give her a toy she can hunt or smack around and she’ll go to town on it. Best of all, Colleen is a very friendly girl. She would be
more than happy to share a new home with other cats. If you’d like to add this darling lady to your home, then stop on in today to meet Colleen. “Phoebe” If you’ve never considered a mouse for a pet before, then you haven’t met Phoebe. Phoebe is a petite and precious adult mouse who will quash all stereotypes about mice. There’ll be no standing on kitchen stools with this darling girl in your home. Pheobe loves having a spacious cage with lots of areas to curl up in. In fact, when you come to visit her, it may take a minute to find her as she loves hiding under shavings or in her mouse house. Phoebe would make for a greater starter pet or for someone without a whole lot of room for larger pets. Her cuteness and energetic nature will make such an impact on you that you’ll forgot she’s a mouse. If you’d like to adopt Phoebe, then stop by today to meet her.

Thanks to our entire yard sale team who worked so tirelessly all weekend, and all month, to make the July sale a success. Meet Bounder The call came from a person in Sanford who’d become aware of a stray cat in critical need in her neighbor’s yard. This cat, who had been sighted in the area for two months, was apparently starving. He was so weak and thin he could only take a few steps before he had to lie down in the shade again. It was Saturday, right in the middle of our monthly yard sale, but the cat needed help now. The woman said she called authorities, who said resources wouldn’t be available until Monday. So she called Safe Haven. We scrambled to find a volunteer who could

The neighborhood was filled with strays and outdoor cats. Then Rich spied him under a porch. He was so weak he could hardly lift his legs to step over it a 2x6 board. Rich set a food bowl down near him, sat down and waited. The kitty wobbled over and began to eat. Painfully thin, dirty and dehydrated, with hollowed hindquarters he offered little resistance when Rich put him in a carrier and drove him to safety. Back at our Adoption Center, Rich gave him prescription canned food, but the poor guy was too weak to stand up and eat. So Rich held the dish while the kitty laid and ate. He was wiped down gently to eliminate some dirt and dust, given flea treatment and fluids intravenously to overcome dehydration, and See HAVEN page 32...
Another Chance Animal Rescue NORTH BERWICK – Meet Thai and his sister Tara These two beautiful kitties are pure-bred Seal Point Siamese. Both Thai and Tara are looking for a family that has the time and experience to work with these two shy but loving kitties. Due to the lack of enough socializing as babies, both kitties lacked an interest in cuddling and being petted. However, this situation has come a long way with the love, care and kindness that each receives in their foster home. We are looking for someone who has the patience, understanding and the love to continue the process of guiding these two sweet kitties into the family pets that each was born to be. Both cats are spayed or neutered; vaccinations are current. Thai and Tara have spent their short lives together as indoor only kitties and would like to continue this lifestyle. If you are thinking that you are the right person to take on this gentle shy pair, please make time in your busy summer schedule to stop by the adoption center to inquire about Thai and his sister Tara. In addition to Thai and Tara, we have a very large selection of kittens available for adoption already spayed or neutered; vaccinations are age specific and have passed their wellness exam.
The crew will be at the adoption center on Saturday. Support For Life Our “Support For Life” program asks for the pledge of a $10 monthly donation. Your $10 combined with the monthly donations of others will help us meet our ongoing expenses and continue our work as a true “No Kill” organization. Please help us continue our mission to provide a safe environment and quality care for abandoned, abused, and lost pets by becoming a “Support for Life” member and pledging a monthly donation. It is through your generosity that the organization exists and will be here to serve your community for years to come.

Boogaloo Swamis to Headline Week of Arts Festival
DOVER, NH – The Boogaloo Swamis will be gracing the Burns, Bryant, Cox, Rockefeller & Durkin Stage in downtown Dover on Friday, July 27, as the 26th Annual Cochecho Arts Festival continues. Portsmouth-based folk singer Jennie Backstrom will open the night starting at 6 p.m., with the Boogaloo Swamis taking the stage at 7 p.m. The performance will be presented by TD Bank and Measured Progress. The Boogaloo Swamis
offer a unique blend of traditional Creole and Cajun elements, along with their contemporary mix of Afro-beat,
blues, rock and New Orleans funk, making them a very special band. Hands down, the Boogaloo Swamis are on the list for New England’s top five party bands. The Boston-based Swamis have been performing throughout the region for the past twenty-three years with five recordings and four Boston Music Awards to their credit. For more information contact the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce at (603) 742-2218. (courtesy photo of Boogaloo Swamis)
...HAVEN from page 28 a quiet space alone to rest. He was so lifeless, we worried we might lose him. That evening he vomited. Soon after, he perked up. He rested comfortably through the night. The next day a vet tech found no injuries, just extreme dehydration and starvation. Since he appears to be rebounding, the name “Bounder” seemed apt. Today Bounder has his first vet appointment. We’re hopeful he’s not suffering from any serious disease and that we will save yet another homeless cat
in our community. Bounder seems to be a “social eater,” meaning he’ll eat only if someone is with him. The strength is returning to his hind legs and he now enjoys sitting in Rich’s lap. His purrs are our reward for the work we do. Our No-Kill efforts depend on volunteers like Rich, and supporters like you who help us pay for food, veterinary care, etc. Each cat we save is one less prowling your backyard and overpopulating the neighborhood. So many need our help. That’s why we need yours – now more than ever. Please donate on our website or by mail. Thanks!

Wells Reserve Plans Unique Approach to Harvesting Trees WELLS – A 34-acre woodlot in Wells is seen as a testing ground for managing timber for longterm gain while maintaining its value for wildlife, clean water, and recreation. The Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve will complete a partial harvest of its Yankee Woodlot this fall while hosting a series of four workshops that will encourage participants to get involved in the process. “We want to demonstrate that woodlots can be managed
on a longer time scale, which is the only way to obtain desirable older growth timber,” said the Wells Reserve’s stewardship coordinator, Tin Smith, who is overseeing the project. “Our goal is to give the woodlot a chance to become valuable while holding onto the ecosystem benefits it provides naturally.” “Over the past few decades, land trusts and conservation commissions have
is up. * Unlimited is not always better. Again, figuring out how much data you use can help you scale down bills. You may be able to sign up for a limited data plan that’s far less costly than the popular unlimited plan if you don’t use that many megabytes per month. * Check for discounts. Certain employees, law-enforcement officials or members of the military may qualify for a plan discount, depending on what the phone company offers. Inquire to see if there are any discounts based on where you work or your membership affiliations. Also, ask your employer if they subsidize mobile phone plans. If you are
a business owner, the costs of a mobile phone may be taxdeductible. Mobile phones have become must-have commodities. Costs for the services associated with the phone can quickly add up, but there are several ways that users can reduce spending on phone data plans.

...DATA from page 34 that the average cell phone user spends $600 per year on basic mobile services. When texting and other smartphone features are added in, the cost balloons to $1,800 per year. There are ways to cut these costs considerably if you simply pay attention to details. * Don’t bundle up just yet. Regular voice service has lately become a cheap commodity. In an effort to make more money, phone companies are pushing higher-end smartphones that require data packages. Take inventory of the features you plan to use and see how the service plans for those features add up. Instead of spending $100 for an all-inclusive plan, you may be

able to buy it in piecemeal and save some money. * Take inventory of how much you use. When browsing the Internet or exploring different apps, it can be difficult to keep track of just how many minutes, texts and megabytes you are using. But knowing what you use will help you determine the range in which you fall with regard to service. If you find you only send out $7 worth of text messages, do not pay for an unlimited text package that costs $15. Services like BillShrink.com can analyze your cellphone usage and make recommendations to cut costs. * Reduce megabyte guzzlers. Certain features require more bandwidth than others and can take more time to download and more megabyte data usage. Applications like YouTube work better when viewed on a computer hooked up to a traditional modem. According to the Onavo, which
measures how data is being used, a YouTube app for a phone accounts for 40 percent of data consumption. App downloads for Angry Birds or Words With Friends represent 13 percent of data usage. All of this congestion results in dropped signals, slow e-mails and delayed Web browsing. In turn, phone service companies have to invest in different and more expensive broadband networks to improve service. Those improvements cost money and are passed down to the consumer via expensive data plans. * Select the cheapest plans. You can compare plans to see which get the best ratings through Consumer Reports. The organization found that AT&T’s unlimited Web add-on is the cheapest, at $15. Be sure you do your research in advance. You may incur hefty early-termination fees if you decide to switch your plans or companies before the contract

Green Group
Lego Club
The Berwick Public Library Green Group began delivering donations from the new BPL Vegetable Gardens to the Somerswor th Berwick Community Food Pantry on Wednesday, July 18. The Food Pantry is located at 176 West High Street in Somersworth, NH. The Pantry hours are Monday 10 am-12 noon, Wednesday 6-8 pm and Thursday 3-5 pm. The BPL Green Group hopes to continue providing donations from the garden to the Food Pantry throughout the summer. The BPL Gardens were started with funds from a grant sponsored by Maine Reads for the “Berwick Public Library Environmental Literacy Project,” which is supporting the development of our “green” book collections in addition to creating the BPL Gardens. If individuals accepting vegetables from the Pantry and others are interested in gardening, contact Anne Hahn or Nick Bray at the library.
Request for Perennial Donations
Please help the BPL Green Group with your perennial donations. We have expanded the front “BPL Sign” bed to be 10’x12’. A library patron donated three daylilies in memory of teacher, Heidi Porter. We need more colorful perennials to fill the remainder of the bed. Thank you for helping our garden grow!

Kennebunk Free Library Artist Applications
The Kennebunk Free Library is currently accepting applications for artists to exhibit during the 2013 calendar year. Since its inception in 2001 Hank’s Room Gallery, rechristened the Speers Gallery in 2010, has offered exhibit opportunities to both amateur and professional ar tists. The gallery has been host to a variety of mediums including photography, textile ar ts and mixed media assemblages in addition to renditions in oil, pastel, pen and ink, and watercolor. The application process is open to either individual or group shows. Applications must be received by October 1, 2012 to be considered for exhibition in 2013. The submitted applications will compete in a juried review conducted by an Art Committee consisting of members from the Library and Art communities. Upon completion of the review, applicants will be contacted regarding the committee’s decisions. Application forms are available at the Library or by visiting the Library’s website. The offering of monthly artist exhibits allows the Kennebunk Free Library to serve the diverse cultural, informational, educational, and recreational needs of the community. The Library is very proud to have showcased the many talented artists who have previously exhibited and is looking forward to continuing this tradition with the 2013 exhibit schedule.

This summer the Wells Public Library will be hosting a weekly Lego Club as part of our summer reading program. We hope to attract some legomaniacs who will ‘Dream Big’ and create some truly inspiring works of art. The program, for ages 7-10, will occur every Friday until August 10 from 1-2 pm. The library will provide some Legos for collaborative use, or children may bring their own from home. The library could always use more Legos and donations are much appreciated. This program is free, no registration required, and is sponsored by the Friends of the Wells Public Library.
Judy Pancoast to Perform
Calling all dreamers! Anyone who has a dream is sure to be inspired by Judy Pancoast, a Grammynominee and acclaimed singer/ songwriter, who will be presenting her “Dream Big!” program for children at Wells Public Library on Monday July 30, at 10:30 am. Pancoast will share her story through song and narrative about how she went from a 12-year old girl in Waterville, Maine, who sent cassette tapes of her songs to the addresses on the back of record albums, to a Grammynominated singer/songwriter who has performed for a US President, toured in 48 US States and three foreign countries, and had her songs featured on the soundtrack of a movie. Her upbeat brand of “Bubblegum Pop for Sweet Kids!” will help her tell the story through original songs about dreamers and never giving up, such as “Once Upon a Time,” and “A Little Bit of Elvis,” and “Try, Try.”
Special Movie Night
The Wells Public Library will hold a special movie night on Tuesday, August 7 at 6 p.m. This event is presented in memory of longtime library friend Norman Wilkinson, who passed away in December, 2011. Norman, a former professor of theater at the University of Maine, was known in the area for his expertise in film history. He presented many programs at the library where he entertained and educated the community on film lore. He was also a dedicated supporter of the library, and served as the President of the Friends of the Wells Public Library. The film for the evening’s performance, “A Bride for Henry,” is a comedy from 1937 about a young woman
who decides to go ahead with her wedding, despite the fact that the groom doesn’t show up. The evening will include trivia, refreshments, and more fun as we celebrate and remember a dear friend. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Wells Public Library.

YORK – The York Library’s Kennebunk room will feature “Art Quilt Odyssey” by Carol Ann Powley, from now until September 5, representing the artist’s transition from traditional quiltmaking into the realm of mixed media art quilts. The quilts incorporate hand-painted cotton and silk with appliquéd collage techniques embellished with machine quilting, oil paint, colored pencil, inks, acrylic paint, and original photos. Carol Ann Powley has a degree in Fine Art from Rowan University, graduating summa cum laude in 1977. She majored in painting and drawing. Powley learned to quilt during the 1990s, became addicted to quilting, and found that her knowledge of color, design and painting could be adapted to the fiber medium. She made many
traditional quilts through the years and gifted most of them to her relatives and friends. The quilts started to evolve into art quilts, and she began to paint and dye cotton, silk, and wool fiber. The fabrics are cut, pieced and appliquéd, creating mystical landscape scenes that are embellished with machine quilting, embroidery, oil paint, colored pencil, and fabric markers. They may incorporate lace, metallic thread, handmade paper, commercial fabric, and even recycled junk, such as netting from onion bags. Powley lives in Kittery, is a member of Seacoast Area Fiber Artists, and is the co–founder of the York Art Association’s Fiber Artists Group in York. She is a member of Kittery Art Association in Kittery, and Cocheco Quilters in Dover, New Hampshire. (courtesy photo)

Pedal Your Way to Success
YORK COUNTY – Bicyclists ride for numerous reasons, but whether it’s to get an adrenaline rush, travel to nearby destinations, take in the scenery, or stay active and healthy, there are many benefits that everyone can enjoy. With summer upon us, TOPS Club, Inc. (Take Off Pounds Sensibly), the nonprofit weight-loss support organization, offers tips for riding sensibly and explains its benefits.
Choosing a Bike Type Before selecting a bike, it’s important to determine how you’ll be using it: on a paved road, off-road, or both? This will dictate the type of bike you’ll need. Mountain Bike – Mountain bikes have a robust frame and wide, knobby tires to withstand dirt, rocky trails, and other offroad terrain. Road Bike – Road bikes are generally lighter in weight with a thin frame and tires to support speed on pavement. Hybrid – Hybrid bikes offer the best of both worlds, combining aspects from both mountain and road bikes to accommodate light off-road riding and faster cycling on paved paths.
Size When choosing a bike, make sure the frame is appropriate. To find the right fit, straddle the bike and stand flatfooted. There should be at least one inch of clearance between your groin and the top tube on road and hybrid bikes, and two inches on a mountain bike. It’s also essential to consider the seat height. Your knee should be slightly bent when the pedal is at the bottom of its rotation. To check the distance between the seat and the handlebars, ask someone to hold the bike steady while you sit on the seat with your hands on the handlebars. You should feel comfortable and relaxed. Tips for Bike Riding Always wear a helmet. This simple rule protects you from head trauma and prevents brain injury. The helmet should have a snug fit, sit level, and cover as much of your head as possible, especially the forehead. Start slowly. Begin with short rides, adding miles, increasing intensity, and taking on hillier terrain gradually and as your cardiovascular ability increases. • Establish varied routes. Diverse courses keep your interest peaked, giving you different scenery to enjoy and offering new challenges.
Improve your technique. The better your technique, the more efficient you’ll be. While pedaling, many beginners only push down with one foot, relying on the opposing foot to carry through the swing. Instead, while pushing down with one foot, pull up with the other to make a circular motion. Take a “brake.” Do not squeeze the brakes too hard, and never clutch the front brake first. Remember to brake before a turn, not during, and pedal through for more control. While making a sharp turn, stop pedaling with the foot at the top of the swing to avoid scraping the pedal on the pavement. Get in gear. To climb a hill, shift up a few gears and stay seated as long as possible to keep your core engaged. Benefits Weight Loss – The amount of calories burned during a bike ride depends on a person’s
weight and the ride’s intensity. For example, if a rider weighs 200 pounds and cycles at a rate of eight miles per hour, he or she will burn about 190 calories in 30 minutes. Low-Impact Exercise – Biking puts less stress on your joints compared to running. • Heart Health – Thirty minutes of biking each day can cut the risk of heart disease in half. Stress Reducer – Cycling can be an escape. You choose your speed and route and have the opportunity to clear your head and enjoy your surroundings. Camaraderie – Join a bike club or find a friend to ride with to keep you motivated and make it more enjoyable. Efficiency – Biking is a great way to get to and from work, run errands, and travel to other nearby places. Opt for a bike ride rather than a car ride to save money on gas and burn calories.
TOPS Club Inc. is the original weight-loss support and wellness education organization. Founded more than 64 years ago, TOPS is the only nonprofit, noncommercial weight-loss organization of its kind. TOPS promotes successful weight management with a “Real People. Real Weight Loss” philosophy that combines support from others at weekly chapter meetings, healthy eating, regular exercise, and wellness information. TOPS has about 170,000 members – male and female, age seven and older – in nearly 10,000 chapters throughout the United States and Canada. Visitors are welcome to attend their first TOPS meeting free of charge. Membership is affordable at just $28 per year in the U.S. and $32 per year in Canada, plus nominal chapter fees. To find a local chapter, view www. tops.org or call 800-932-8677. ...BOOM from page 17 works also puts more of an emphasis on safety. In addition to fireworks, a majority of the retail establishments provide consumers with brochures and downloadable videos with information on how to use them safely. Many national experts say legalizing fireworks actually cuts down on the number of accidents.

Tips to Celebrate National Picnic Month without Pests
YORK COUNTY – National Picnic Month is in full swing. Here are some important tips to help keep your picnics pest-free. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the first six months of this year were the warmest on record for the United States since 1895, spurring an increase in mosquito and tick populations. In fact, there are already twenty-five cases of West Nile Virus in the U.S. recorded this year by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention. Picnic-goers can also face an
Reduce the population. Eliminate sources of standing water, including rain gutters and animal watering troughs, which attract mosquitoes and allow them to breed. Leave Fido at home. Unfortunately, disease-carrying ticks latch onto pets quickly. Depending on your proxim-
increased risk for Lyme disease, which can lead to facial or Bell’s palsy, severe headaches and neck stiffness, pain and swelling in large joints. To prevent a fun day outside from turning into a summer-day mishap, RISE is offering easyto-implement outdoor tips for a pest-free picnic: Personal protection and barriers. Wear light, long sleeves and pants, especially during dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active. Take advantage of insectspecific sprays: Be sure to apply insect repellent – like DEET – to yourself and your family.
...TREES from page 34 been able to protect woodlands around the region, but they need to know how to steward the resource. These workshops will give anyone interested in sustainability the tools they need to manage their forests for high quality timber, as well as natural resources, over the long term,” Smith added. The biweekly evening workshops, which begin Thursday, August 30, will be interactive. Participants will discuss every step in planning and managing a timber harvest, from walking the site and hiring a forester to obtaining permits, marking trees, overseeing the cut, and doing site remediation. The first portion of each session will be on the Yankee Woodlot and the second in the classroom. Rob Bryan of Forest Syn-

ity to woody areas, it may be best to leave your pets at home. Remember: It is important to treat your pets appropriately throughout the entire year to prevent tick bites and other harmful insects from spreading disease. Bathe or shower soon after coming indoors to prevent
ticks. To protect your family when you have finished enjoying your summer picnic, showering can prevent possible pests from spreading to your home or from person-to-person. Tips courtesy of RISE - Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment. More information is available at www. debugthemyths.com.
