YORK The office of York’s eye doctor is holding its first usedeyewear drive during this holiday season. They are requesting donations of high-quality used glasses, which they are hanging on a “giving tree” in their office.

Notice of Reopened Aquaculture Lease Hearing

KITTERY The Department of Marine Resources will be reopening the record on the application of Spinney Creek Shellfish, Inc. for a 3.67-acre, 3-year, experimental aquaculture lease for a site located in Spinney Creek, Kittery, for the suspended cul-

ture of American/Eastern oysters and Northern quahogs. After the close of the evidentiary record on September 27, 2018, riparian landowners asserted ownership of the submerged land below Spinney Creek’s impounded waters to the low water mark. Therefore,

the Department will reopen the record to take evidence on issues of whether the land below the proposed lease is intertidal and ownership of that land. The hearing will take place on Tuesday, January 8, 2019 at 5 p.m. in the Star Theatre, located at the Kittery Community

Center, 120 Rogers Road in Kittery. If the hearing needs to be postponed or continued, it will be held on January 14, 2019 at the same location. Notice of a postponement/continuance will be posted to the Department of Marine Resources website under “Meetingsâ€?. Public Participation: At the hearing, the Department will take evidence relating to the issues described above and other lease decision criteria contained in 12 MRSA §6072-A(13) and DMR Chapter 2.64(7)(A).

The length of testimony will be limited to ensure that interested witnesses can present evidence and be cross-examined. Information on the DMR Website can be found at www. maine.gov/dmr/aquaculture/ leases/pending/index.html Questions can be addressed to: Maine Department of Marine Resources, Attn: Angel Wilson, Resource Management Coordinator, 21 State House Station, Augusta, ME 04333 or call 207-624-6567.

and the Foundation have committed to deploy the first pilot of the Workplace Dignity and Inclusion initiative at Tivity Health. “Workplace bullying of all kinds is a serious issue – paramount to the health of today’s worker. Dignity is fundamental to well-being and to ensuring that employees and their organizations can thrive,� said Tramuto. “Wise business leaders understand that a strong culture is essential to a productive, fruitful and resilient business. Workplace bullying diminishes employee engagement and impacts a company’s ability to succeed. Promoting human dignity in the workplace is consistent with the mission of Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights and demands our attention in today’s workplace more than ever. Since its founding in 2001, this is the largest award the Tramuto Foundation has ever made. It is a strong statement by our board that it is committed to making the workplace a gentler, more compassionate environment.� “Our hope is that the

Robert F. Kennedy Workplace Dignity and Inclusion Program will be a globally recognized symbol of human rights at work – a referenced standard on how to do business and how to reassert the right to a respectful and fair work environment for all,� said RFK Human Rights President Kerry Kennedy. “This new program will establish a respectful and fair work environment by exposing toxic cultures, advocating on behalf of those in abusive work relationships, empowering those that are marginalized or held back and training employees at every level on behaviors that support a healthy and respectful workplace culture.� The Workplace Dignity and Inclusion initiative will have the support of an advisory council. The advisory council will be comprised of ten of America’s most prominent corporate leaders as well as experts and influencers who will participate in ongoing development of the program, advocacy and communications campaigns.

Bill Includes Major Victory for Maple Syrup and Honey Producers WASHINGTON, DC In a significant win for Maine’s maple syrup and honey producers, a provision that builds upon U.S. Senator Susan Collins’ (R-ME) work to prevent the enactment of a confusing labeling requirement was included in the 2018 Farm Bill. The legislation passed both the Senate and the House of Representatives with overwhelming bipartisan support and now awaits the President’s signature. As a member of the Senate Agriculture Appropriations Subcommittee, Senator Collins secured an amendment in the agriculture funding bill earlier this year to protect pure maple syrup and honey producers from a misguided Food and Drug Administration (FDA) rule that would have required single-ingredient sweeteners to have an “added sugar� label. Under the requirement, all sugar in these products would have been denoted as “added sugar.� This could have misled consumers into believing that pure maple syrup includes added high fructose corn syrup or cane sugar. Senator Collins’ amendment will still support public health and consumer awareness by retaining the FDA’s ability to state the percent daily value of sugars the products contain. The Farm Bill builds on

Senator Collins’ efforts by including a provision that is virtually identical to her agriculture appropriations amendment. “This commonsense provision, which mirrors an amendment I secured in the agriculture funding bill, will prevent the harmful consequences the FDA’s labeling rule would have had on Maine’s maple syrup and honey producers. Although the FDA’s rule was well-intentioned, it would have created widespread consumer confusion and negatively affected many familyowned businesses,� said Senator Collins. “I am pleased that an overwhelming bipartisan majority of my colleagues joined me in advancing this provision to support this integral part of our agriculture community.� In June, Senator Collins met with MaryAnne Kinney, the owner of Kinney Sugar House in Knox, who along with other producers informed Senator Collins how the FDA’s proposed labeling rule would impact her business and the maple syrup and honey industries. Senator Collins raised these concerns directly with FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, who announced in September that the FDA is “continuing to work on a revised approach,� based on feedback from lawmakers and the industry.

~ News ~ Wishes Continue to be Granted with Help From Old Village Inn OGUNQUIT For ten straight years the hard working and generous folks at the Old Village Inn have made it their mission to do all they could to help raise funds and awareness of the Make A Wish Foundation. In fact, since 2009, owner Dean Goodman and the staff have helped raise over $100,000 from the yearly event to grant multiple wishes to children diagnosed with life-threatening medical conditions. At this year’s event, which took place on Saturday, December 15, Dean reported that the results were simply extraordinary. “We raised at least $25,000 and we’re still counting!� It takes approximately $7,000 to make one wish come true and The Old Village Inn is on track to grant at least three! It was a great night of delicious food, libations, music, raffles and more to benefit a child in Maine who is in need. Friends came together to support this very worthy cause and Dean is quick to point out that, “We could not do it without friends, both old and new, and supporters from local businesses. They all donate their time, food, gift certificates, and many local artists/photographers. Even to Cambridge Mass detectives who helped with a save the change

program.� List of local business contributors included: Mike’s Clam Shack, Black Sushi, Bitter End, Burrito Bettys, East, Clay Hill Farm, The Leavitt Theater, Varanos Front Porch, Bintliffs, Barnacle Billy’s, The Greenery Seashell Cottage, Ogunquit House of Pizza, Harbor Candy Store, Cat N Nine Tails, Southern Maine Aviation, Litchfields, Sysco Bow Street Beer and Wine Distributors and many others. Dean and his staff are very passionate about raising the money for Maine children with life-threatening medical conditions as they plan and begin fundraising months in advance which is evident by their continued yearly success at this annual event. “We really like that all of the money goes to Make-AWish Maine and that they use

~ News ~ Historical Town House School Renovations Underway KENNEBUNKPORT Renovations on the Town House School, the last oneroom schoolhouse remaining in Kennebunkport, are underway according to the Kennebunkport Historical Society. The schoolhouse, which was built in 1900, was saved through a fundraising effort spearheaded by The Friends of Town House School, a group of Historical Society members, some of who attended the school during its operating years. Through art and antique auctions, dinners and other events, The Friends raised the $450,000 needed to restore and maintain the structure, which was in danger of collapse. The building, still in its original location at the corner of North Street and Walkers Lane, was the center of education for many rural students in the early 20th century. Boys

and girls entered by separate doors and one teacher taught all grades. Strict rules applied to teachers and students and it was only after World War II that the teacher was allowed to marry. With the growth of the community, newer schools were built, sidelining the charming building where generations were taught. Eventually it was used to store the archives for the historical society. A 2015 inspection by a structural engineering firm found the structure to be unsafe with black mold in the walls. The archives were moved and the building closed. An exterior bracing structure was installed to support the walls. Shortly after, the Friends group began a fundraising effort to save the building. “We are truly delighted to take this project to the next level,� notes Kirsten Camp,

executive administrator of the historical society. “The initial focus is on pouring a new foundation and stabilizing the structure. We have hired Gary Martin, a local contractor, to do the work. It was especially important to us that we award the work to a local company as this

is a story of our community. “We are deeply grateful for the dedicated efforts of The Friends group as well as the wonderful generosity of many in the community who helped raise funds for this project,� adds Camp. “We look forward to welcoming everyone to the

reopening in 2019.� The Kennebunkport Historical Society is a non-profit member-supported organization established in 1952 with the purpose of preserving and presenting the history, art and culture of Kennebunkport. To learn more, visit www.kennebunkporthistoricalsociety. com.

To track the drive’s progress and create awareness, the donated pairs of eyeglasses are being hung as they are received as the only “ornaments� on a

Christmas tree in the optical boutique. York Family Eyecare is providing a thank-you treat to each donor. Dr. Pelletier is asking local residents to spread the word about the often-forgotten basic need of clear vision, and this opportunity to improve someone’s life. His team hopes to turn their “Eyewear Giving Tree� drive into an annual holiday tradition for York and surrounding towns that will grow with the community’s help in the coming years.

~ News ~ WES Recognizes Champions at Breakfast WELLS Wells Elementary School (WES) held its first “Breakfast of Champions” for the 2018-19 school year. Over two dozen first through fourth grade students were recognized in front of an audience of parents, staff and guests for demonstrating one or more of the school’s core values in school. Those values include responsibility, honesty, trustworthiness plus compassion and respect for others. “This November, 29 students were recognized and enjoyed a healthy delicious breakfast prepared by our kitchen

staff and served by parent volunteers,” commented WES Principal April Noble. According to the principal, there were some recent changes to this program. “This year the leadership team decided EVERY staff member would be able to nominate one child for a core value award. She noted, “In the past, only classroom teachers would recognize students and now anyone in the building can recognize someone each trimester.” Honored at the event were Zoe Borberg, Luke Boucher, Mattie Carpentier, Hunter

Chadbourne, London Chadwick, Arianna Cogliano, Alivia Collin, Isla Collins, Gracey Copper, Baya Cuevas, Lily Desper, Logan Desper, Savannah Dunlap-Woodward, Emily Finch, Cole Gauthier, Weston McKinnon, Mila Mustacka, Carolyn Nichols, Andrew Parker, Alicja Izabella Paszkowska, Lincoln Polacke, Chase Pullen, Kaden Richard, Rusty Rousseau, Ethan Smith, Selena Sola, Joshua Watts, Kaylee Webber and Devyn Woodman. As with a similar honorary breakfast at Wells High School, the elementary breakfast occurs

three times per school year. “I love the idea of recognizing students throughout the year for going above and beyond show-

First Phase of Electric Vehicle Corridor Begins AUGUSTA Efficiency Maine is pleased to announce its selection of ChargePoint to install and operate seven electric vehicle (EV) charging stations to serve EV drivers coming from or heading to Southern New England, New Hampshire and Quebec. This first phase of the Maine Electric Vehicle Charging Initiative will install Level 3 “fast charge” stations at the Maine Turnpike Authority service plazas in Kennebunk (North and South) and West Gardiner, on Rt. 302 in the Bridgton/ Naples area, in Farmington near the intersection of Rt. 2 and Rt. 27, in Jackman, and at one other location along Rt. 201. Each location will include two ultra-fast chargers. The ChargePoint Express Plus ultrafast chargers installed at the Kennebunk Plazas and West Gardiner Plaza will be capable of delivering hundreds of miles of range in as little as 15 minutes for many current and future EV models, such as the Chevy Bolt or the all-new Hyundai KONA Electric, each offering more than 240 miles of range on a single charge. Eight ChargePoint Express 250 fast chargers will be installed at locations on Rt. 302, Rt. 2, and along Rt 201. These fast chargers will dispense 62.5 kW of power and can deliver more than 100 miles of range in 30 minutes or less. The chargers will come equipped with CHAdeMO and SAE Combo

(CCS) connectors which will allow the overwhelming majority of EVs on the road today to fast charge when needed. Tesla drivers will be able to fast charge on CHAdeMO equipped stations with the necessary adaptor. Each location will also include a single, dual-port, Level 2 charger. Level 2 chargers cannot deliver a charge as quickly as fast chargers, but will be able to serve drivers with more time,

vehicles that cannot take a fast charge, or hybrid plug-in models such as the Chevy Volt, Prius Prime, Ford Fusion and C-Max Energi models, Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid, or Hyundai’s Sonata and Ioniq PHEV models. This public-private partnership is made possible with public funding received by the State of Maine through the settlement See ELECTRIC page 12...

Congress Enacts Bipartisan Agreement to Protect and Strengthen Food Assistance

AUGUSTA With the House voting 369-47 in favor of the compromise 2018 Farm Bill crafted by the House-Senate Conference Committee, bipartisan majorities in Congress have affirmed the critical role of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, in fighting hunger in Maine and across the United States. The Farm Bill protects and strengthens SNAP while rejecting proposals to take food assistance away from Mainers and Americans through cuts and harmful bureaucratic changes. The Senate approved the conference committee’s agreement in an 87-13 vote on Tuesday. Maine’s entire congressional delegation voted in support of the

bill. The agreement ensures SNAP will continue to help feed children and their parents, people with disabilities, and working people with low incomes and inconsistent hours who struggle to make ends meet. While SNAP is just a portion of the Farm Bill, it has long been the nation’s most powerful and effective anti-hunger program. In 2017, SNAP helped 1 in 7 Mainers put food

of federal lawsuits against Volkswagen (VW) for violation of air pollution laws. On behalf of the Maine Department of Transportation, Efficiency Maine is administering a total of $3.15 million from the VW settlement to provide grants for the Maine EV Charging Initiative. In Phase One of the Initiative, ChargePoint will provide private investment to cover a share of the equipment and operating costs for the seven sites where the fourteen charging stations will be deployed. In Phase Two of the Initiative, Efficiency Maine will solicit bids for installation and operation of EV fast chargers located in sites that will complement the locations where fast chargers have previously been installed or are being installed through Phase One. The primary focus for Phase Two, which will be rolled out in early 2019, will be to develop EV fast charger stations along I-295, I-95 through Bangor, and along coastal Route 1 to fill out a network of EV fast chargers as far as Bar Harbor.

“While no compromise is perfect and there’s still more to be done to combat hunger in Maine, this bipartisan agreement ensures Mainers will continue to be able to use SNAP to feed themselves and their families,” Myall said. “That’s an achievement worth celebrating.” The new farm bill conference agreement reauthorizes SNAP and encourages approaches to job training and

other employment-related services that are proven to be successful, based on pilot projects established by the 2014 Farm Bill. The compromise legislation also rejects the House’s proposed cuts and other harmful changes to SNAP administration that would have caused more than 2 million people to lose benefits altogether or face reductions that would have made it harder to feed their families.

A third phase of the Initiative is expected to further complement the network of fast charger stations with strategically located Level 2 chargers. Level 2 chargers, using 220-240 volts, may be used to “top up” any EV battery during a brief charging session, but will require several hours of charging to deliver a full charge. These kinds of chargers are better suited to retail shopping areas, workplace charging, hotels, and multifamily apartments where the car may be left to charge for more than an hour. The goal of developing charging stations along these corridors is part of a larger initiative to benefit the Maine economy and environment. Building out the network of fast charging stations along highly traveled routes will, said Michael D. Stoddard, Executive Director of Efficiency Maine, “help draw more tourists from Boston and Quebec, bringing more business to our local economy while maintaining the pristine air quality that Maine is famous for.” By locating the charging stations at a mix of cross-roads and destination towns, this initiative will make it easier for Maine businesses and municipal governments to introduce more EVs and plug-in hybrids to their fleets, and to lower their transportation costs since running vehicles on electric charge costs less than gas or diesel.

Angela Monroe, Director of the Governor’s Energy Office, said, “We are very pleased to see, with this project, that Maine’s March 2016 commitment to link the people and businesses of Quebec to destinations in Maine through publicly available EV fast chargers is on track to becoming a reality.” Peter Mills, Executive Director of the Maine Turnpike Authority, added, “The ultra fast chargers planned for three locations on the Turnpike will enable many electric cars to charge in about the same time it takes to enjoy coffee at Starbucks with a biscuit from Popeye’s. These new general purpose charging machines will nicely complement the Tesla stations installed six months ago on both sides of the Kennebunk interchange. The Tesla units have already provided service over 2,000 times owners of electric cars are clearly anxious to visit Maine.” The sites will be developed and managed by ChargePoint, Inc., a California-based charging network developer and operator. ChargePoint is partnering with

Maine-based Revision Energy for site selection, development, and maintenance. “For more than a decade ChargePoint has worked with ecosystem partners to help pave the way to the mass adoption of electric mobility, and states like Maine are continuing to lead the way by making it more seamless than ever for drivers to go electric while supporting the buildout of the fueling network of the future,” said Dedrick Roper, Director, Public & Private Partnerships, ChargePoint. “We are excited to partner with Efficiency Maine in their effort to not only expand electric vehicle charging in the state, but enable long distance electric travel throughout the northeast. Collaborations like this are vital to ushering in a more sustainable mobility future.” For more information, visit www.chargepoint.com or contact the Global Press Office at media@chargepoint.com or European Press Office at europepressoffice@chargepoint.com.

~ News ~ Wow, There Really is a Christmas By Jim Fabiano The Christmas season comes every year. The older one gets the quicker they arrive and then disappear even faster. Younger people love this time of year because it brings colors, festivities, presents, and a kind of feelings that promote good will toward everyone. Older people have a tendency to become immune to these feelings because of the years they worked so hard to survive and the repetition of what they are told to feel. My wife and I fell into this Christmas season and were looking forward to the excitement of our daughter and her children. For after all, this is whom Christmas is for. A couple of days ago we were in our normal position of watching the cable news channels describing how awful things were and even more awful they will become. We watch all the channels so as to not become indoctrinated about what was real and what is not. We were in what my wife calls our ‘comfy clothes’ lounging in our television room that is in our basement when the doorbell rang. Actually we call this room the hole because we are totally isolated from what

could be happening around us. We actually felt an earthquake a couple of years ago but because we were in the hole we dared not climb the stairs and thus observe the end of the world. We just continued to watch MSNBC. My wife told me she was possibly expecting her sister to visit so it became necessary for me to get off my couch and climb the stairs that led me back to reality. It was like an old movie of my past memories. I opened the door and was enlightened to see about fifteen or so colorfully dressed people singing Christmas carols for the purpose of simply singing Christmas carols. This has never happened before, or at least in what times I can remember. To say I was shocked, surprised, and pleased would be an understatement. I called my wife from the hole to take part in what I thought no longer existed. They sang beautifully and all had smiles on their faces. I wondered what I had done right in my life to be able to feel the feelings of joy I had at that particular time. My wife, being the wonderful person she is, deserved it but I, on the other hand, was blessed by something I did not deserve.

The first thing I asked these wonderful people was if they needed some water. Needed some water? That had to be one of my more foolish questions of my rather elongated life. I should have asked them if they needed some coffee or hot chocolate. I just knew I had to offer them something. They told me they needed nothing and continued to carol my home. At this time my wife joined me at the door and smiled with me because this literally made our Christmas season. We no longer concentrated on what we would buy or where we would go because we had the privilege of feeling what the season was supposed to mean. Personally this was a feeling I long forgot existed. They then did something I will be forever grateful for. They blessed my home and my family. Before this I never could equate what a blessing was and I still can’t understand what it means but at this particular event of my life I actually understood its meaning. A woman then passed a bag of cookies to us at which time we took them. They never asked for donations or anything like that because all they wanted to do was share a belief that the Christmas Spirit

During the luncheon $52,000 was presented to several home heating assistance programs from Maine and Massachusetts. The luncheon was held at the Seaglass Restaurant and Lounge in Salisbury, Massachusetts. Before concluding the luncheon, Leeward Vice President Shauna Werner welcomed several guests from local charities and presented them with donation checks. Among the charities receiving checks were York Country Community Action Corporation of York ($15,000) and Fuel and More of Kittery ($7,000). These charities will use

the donations to provide home heating assistance to towns in York County. During the event, Werner stated, “I am honored to be hosting 52 amazing Leeward women. They positively change our community and help their neighbor’s everyday through volunteerism. I could not be more proud to know each and every one of them!” Upon receiving a check for $15,000, York County Community Action Corporation Outreach Worker Heather Roberge stated, “I am always blown away by the money Leeward donates. Thank you for your generous gift and your continuous support.” “This money is very much appreciated and will directly enhance the services that help keep our Kittery neighbors warm” said Maureen Bilodeau, Vice President of Fuel and More.

2018 Business Excellence Award Presented in Maine AUGUSTA Governor Paul R. LePage presented five Maine companies with a 2018 Governor’s Award for Business Excellence during a reception at the Blaine House in Augusta. The 28th annual awards, administered by the Maine Department of Economic and Community Development and sponsored by Consolidated Communications, recognize Maine businesses that demonstrate a high level of commitment to their community, employees and excellence in manufacturing or service provision. “It’s been an honor to annually recognize the best of the best here in Maine, businesses that clearly go above and beyond normal day to day operations,” said Governor Paul R. LePage. “The businesses honored today are dedicated to quality workmanship, maintaining a loyal and dedicated workforce and giving back to the community. I thank each of them for doing

business in our state and for setting the bar high.” Since 1991, the Governor’s Award for Business Excellence has been presented to 157 Maine companies. Previous recipients include Idexx Laboratories, L.L. Bean, GAC Chemical, Mathews Brothers, Jackson Lab and Moody’s Collision Center. Included this year was Howe and Howe Technologies originally based in Eliot but now located in Waterboro. Howe & Howe Technologies

was founded with the vision of producing innovative vehicles to enable life saving strategies. Founders and twin brothers, Geoffrey and Michael Howe first gained notoriety in 2001 with the introduction of the world’s fastest tank, the Ripsaw; an unmanned ground vehicle designed for the US Military; and soon after turned their talents in a different direction creating extreme fire trucks, unmanned firefighting robots, and off road tracked wheelchairs.

Check all winter equipment coming out of storage and see what maintenance and repairs are required. Are batteries fully charged? Remove and fully charge any batteries to ready your winter equipment for a sudden, unexpected weather event. Did you drain the fuel tank before storing? Unused gas left in tanks can go stale and can damage equipment. Was equipment properly

sheltered? A clean, dry place such as a garage, barn or shed is ideal and all outdoor power equipment should be out of the reach of children. Is your yard, driveway or walkways free of debris?

Health & Fitness 10 Tips to Help Families of Children with Special Needs during Holidays WASHINGTON The holidays are upon us, and while there’s loads of merry-making and fun to be had – the changes and sensations of the season can add stress to the lives of children with special needs and their families. The Episcopal Center for Children (ECC), a nonprofit organization serving children with special needs ages 5 - 14 in the greater Washington, DC area, offers the following tips to help. “Children with special needs enjoy the holidays but they are especially sensitive to the changes in routines that the holidays bring,” said Dodd White, president and CEO of ECC. “Making a plan, thinking about your child’s needs, and adjusting your expectations can help you create a positive holiday experience for the entire family.” Tip #1 – Make a plan for the holidays and share it with your family. Create a schedule for your family’s holiday activities and post it for your child to see. You may find it helpful to use pictures to help a young child. Talk about the schedule with your child, so he or she can anticipate what will happen. Tip #2 – Remind your family about holiday plans. Review the schedule. Discuss the schedule with others in your home, so they understand what is going on and how they can best support your child with special needs (and everyone else in the family), so everyone can have a fun holiday. Tip #3 – For holiday gatherings, give your child a job and a plan. Ask your child to help collect coats, give out treats, or greet arrivals. Rehearse the plan. Give your child a sched-

ule or plan for a festive occasion so he or she knows what to anticipate and when things will happen. Tip #4 – Maintain routines as much as possible. There may be special activities for the holidays, but try to keep your child’s schedule as close to “normal” as possible. Routines are key for helping children coping with special needs, and it’s especially important for children to stick to regular medication and sleep schedules as much as possible. Tip #5 - If your child is sensitive to unfamiliar smells, help manage them. Cinnamon is a common holiday fragrance. One way to help a child experience this smell minimally (and gauge reaction to it), is to add cinnamon to play compound before an event. Ask guests visiting your home to not wear heavy perfumes if your child is sensitive to them and think about other smells like evergreens.. Tip #6 – Eat healthy foods and consider how new or special foods impact your child. During the holidays there are all sorts of fun foods and treats to enjoy. Some children are more affected than others by dietary changes. Pay attention to your child’s moods and how diet and situational changes may be impacting him or her. If you are at an event, bring along food that is familiar to your child if you think it may be needed. Tip #7 – Take breaks when needed. Sometimes children need a break from the hubbub of holiday activities and busyness. Fill a bag or backpack with a few favorite toys, games or activities. If you see your child is getting stressed, get out the bag and find a quiet spot to play.

Help Prevent Falls in the New Year SOUTHERN MAINE Falls are the leading cause of injury and emergency department visits for older adults, and a significant contributor to healthcare costs. According to the Maine Health Data Organization, in 2017, over 21,000 Mainers aged 65+ visited an Tip #8 – Do not allow presents to be a hindrance to enjoyment. Toy packaging today can frustrate children and parents alike. Children who have trouble with fine motor skills may find unwrapping some gifts frustrating. You can adjust packages to their comfort level by loosening ribbons and paper, or pre-cutting fasteners. Ask others who give your child gifts to be aware of his or her needs when it comes to wrapping presents. Some children find it dis-orienting to unwrap things that are new and unfamiliar to them. If that is the case for your child, wrap a few favorite toys for your child to unwrap. Tip #9 – Get your child into the spirit of the season through gift giving. Gift giving provides an opportunity to practice social skills. Help your child make a gift for someone else, and practice how to give the gift to that person. Let your child experience the joy of giving. Tip #10 – Give your child the gift of your attention. Holidays can be busy for grown-ups and children. Make sure you spend a few minutes of quality time with your child every day. Give your full attention. Practice active listening, where you listen to what your child is saying and then repeat it back to them to demonstrate that you are listening. Focus on offering connection and support.

Important Tips on Helping Support Loved Ones with Diabetes Living with diabetes can be complicated. The same goes for living with or caring for someone who has diabetes. In fact, the latter can be even more confusing. Why? Because not only must you understand the disease itself, you must also understand your role in helping the person navigate it—and that’s not always obvious. And since November is National Diabetes Month, there’s never been a better time to raise awareness about diabetes and learn how to best support a loved one affected by the disease. “If you’re a parent, partner, adult child, or even just a friend of someone who has

diabetes, you might end up assuming a significant role in their care,” says Gary Scheiner, MS, CDE, coauthor, along with Diane Herbert, MSS, LSW, CFM, CDE, of Diabetes—How to Help: Your Complete Guide to Caring for a Loved One with Diabetes. “And sometimes it’s hard to know if you’re doing too much, too little, or even the wrong kinds of things.” If you’re ready to become a better supporter to a person with diabetes (and finally learn to manage your own needs as well!), keep reading for these tips from Diabetes—How to Help: “Reframe” how you think of the person and your own role. If you view a person with

diabetes as “sick,” you may believe that the person needs to be “taken care of.” But if you view the person with diabetes as having a disease that needs management, your response is more likely to focus on how you can help them to better manage the illness. This small shift in framing has a dramatic impact on how you treat and interact with your loved one with diabetes—and shifts your role from “taking care of” them to “supporting” them. Model empowerment (not fear) for your child with diabetes. “If you are anxious and nervous about diabetes, it’s likely your kids will be too,” says Scheiner. “But if you’re calm and confident, your child will likely follow your lead. Whenever possible, take emotions out of diabetes management tasks. Kids will pick up on your feelings of empowerment and as a result are likely to feel more secure and empowered to manage diabetes as well.” Verbalize your child’s diabetes management tasks. Talk through blood glucose readings: “Your blood glucose is 65. That’s below target. We need to treat that with some fast sugar.” As they get a little older, you could say, “Your blood glucose is 65. Is that above, below, or

in your target zone?” and then, “Your blood glucose is 65. What do you think we need to do?” Encourage sibling support. All siblings can pitch in and support the child or children with diabetes. Not only can siblings offer emotional support, but even young children can bring a test kit at mealtimes, count juice boxes to make sure they don’t run low, and tell an adult if the continuous glucose monitor (CGM) goes off. Be on the lookout for diabetes burnout. This is the term given for the state of disillusion, frustration, and (sometimes) submission to the condition of diabetes. It may be marked by a person’s complete or partial disregard for blood glucose levels, eating habits, and/or medication requirements. If you notice that your loved one, who previously was on top of things, suddenly starts forgetting to check blood

glucose or skips a few insulin doses, and is otherwise acting like he or she doesn’t have diabetes, this is a red flag. Don’t panic. Instead, gently steer them to find a support group or intervene in other helpful (not bossy or preachy) ways. Encourage your loved one to find a diabetes community. Most communities have support groups that meet regularly for people living with diabetes. Check with the local hospital systems in your loved one’s community or with their healthcare provider to find one nearby. Or, if attending inperson group meetings are difficult or uncomfortable, look for an online forum, website, or blog. Offer help that is helpful. “Think about what your loved one most dislikes doing,” says Herbert. “Maybe it’s counting carbs or dealing with insurance. Maybe it’s keeping a logSee DIABETES page 17...

Being able to take a partial diabetes vacation without the guilt and ramifications of neglecting important diabetes tasks can go a long way toward helping someone through phases of burnout.” Invite them to get active. Invite the person with diabetes to join you in active pursuits such as walking, gardening, dancing, cycling, and sports. If this loved one lives in your own household, provide access to exercise equipment (or classes) by joining a health club or purchasing something to use at home. Help them use tech to get

organized. Smartphones can be a huge source of organizational efficiency. If you haven’t checked out the large number of diabetes-related apps yet, diabetes management could be just the reason to get started. Beyond tech solutions, helping your loved one create a central file for all key information ensures that they always have their records nearby. Keep fast-acting carbs on hand. “People who take insulin or oral medications that stimulate the pancreas to produce more insulin are at risk of hypoglycemia at any time,” says Scheiner. “Even though you don’t have diabetes, as someone who spends time with someone who does, it’s a good idea to have something with you to

treat low blood glucose. Keep a fast-acting carbohydrate readily available: in the kitchen, at the bedside, or in your car, purse, briefcase, or backpack.” Model healthy eating. Rather than making frequent comments or asking questions about your loved one’s food choices, model healthy eating patterns yourself and make good choices readily available to your loved ones. Encourage them to eat mindfully. Mindful eating is being fully immersed in the eating experience. People get in trouble when they eat for pleasure without mindfulness. Urge your loved one to focus on the sensation of eating and the feelings they have while eating. This helps you control cravings and

avoid overeating. Further, don’t eliminate entire food groups; rather, focus on moderation. Urge them to drink plenty

of water. Early signs of dehydration (headache, dizziness, and feeling tired) are often misSee CARE page 18...

Dear Computer Lady, This (**@gmail.com) is not the email I am subscribed to you at but I can not log into my Yahoo account – apparent password issues. I need to reset my password but currently I can’t even send/receive emails. My normal email address is ***@flash.net. Do you have any suggestions that don’t involve ATT? They refer me to Yahoo and I can’t seem to get help from Yahoo. Please help and thanks – Kris Dear Kris, I can’t really help you with ATT or Yahoo, but I do want to give you some tips to help with password issues in the future. Since you already have a gmail address, I would suggest that you switch to Gmail, and then set up some additional security measures to make sure others can’t hack in, but you can get back in if you ever do have password issues. In your gmail page, click on the icon for your account in the upperright corner of the page, then click the blue button that says, “Google Account�. In the left column click on “Security�. In the section that says, “Signing in to Google� click to turn

Scroll down and select at least one alternative second step in case the first one doesn’t work. Now make your way back to the security page and find the section entitled “Ways we can verify it’s you�. Here you can enter a recovery phone number, a recovery email address and even a security question. You can use these methods if you ever lose your password. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, I have an HP lap top. I had to have my computer erased due to someone using it and having inappropriate material. How do I get back programs? (I can get online after they erased all info) Will I need to purchase all new software? (I do not have a Place for a DVD) Can you guide me to the most affordable options for my HP? Thank you so much, God bless you, and Merry Christmas! Peggy Dear Peggy, Getting your programs back on your computer should be fairly easy. You must have

gotten them on your laptop without a DVD drive in the first place, so you should be able to get them back on the same way you got them originally. Most software that you purchase has a license number or product key and all you would need to do is enter that number that you originally purchased when you bought the program. If you did not keep a copy of the license information, many web sites will allow you to log back into their website and get your information from there, or you could try emailing the company and see if they can send you the information again. In the future, when you purchase a program online, save the original installation file along with a text file containing all your purchase information on an external hard drive or USB drive and you will be able to easily install the software again if the need arises. Elizabeth Dear Computer Lady, I have an HP laptop. My battery is not working. I have to have my computer directly into a plug, and if the computer gets tapped just right I loose what I am working on and the computer turns off. Can you guide me to the most affordable options for my HP? Thank you so much, Peggy Dear Peggy, It sounds like you have a couple of things going on with this computer. First, the battery is not holding a charge. This happens to laptop batteries as they age and most people just keep the laptop plugged in when they use it. You can purchase a new battery from HP,

but that is usually rather expensive and might not be available for older laptops. Your second problem is a connection issue with the laptop power cord. This is also a common issue with older laptops. Unfortunately, this is not something that can be easily fixed. Some shops will take the laptop complete apart and solder the connection, but it is an expensive repair and often not worth the investment in an older computer. All you really can do is be very careful with the cord and avoid bumping into it. Elizabeth

can work with my files offline. I worry that automatic backup systems will confuse me, and that I won’t be able to keep track of whether I am working on the latest version of a particular file. Can you advise me? Thank you, Jo

Dear Computer Lady, Thank you for all of your kind, clear answers in your newsletter! I have one more: I would like to use a cloud back-up system for my files and photos and audio recordings, but I am not sure how to select one that would work in my situation. I use two PC laptops for my work, a larger one and a smaller, more portable one, both with Windows 7. I save files identically to both computers by a rather laborious process: When I edit File A on one computer, I save it manually to a folder on Dropbox, from which, the next time I use the other computer, I copy it into the other computer, overwriting the older version of File A. I then delete File A from Dropbox so I won’t be confused. In effect, each computer acts as the back-up for the other now. I would like to have an automatic cloud back-up as well, for greater security. But I don’t know how to use the cloud systems and still keep downloaded up-to-date copies of each file on each computer so that I

Dear Jo, I was going to suggest that you save your files in a OneDrive folder on your hard drive so they would automatically sync, but when I did a little bit of research on Dropbox, I found that they have the same kind of automatic sync feature. When you install the dropbox desktop application on both computers, and login with the same username on both, any file that you save in the dropbox folder will automatically be saved and updated in the dropbox folder on the other computer. This actually saves your file in three locations. One on each computer, and one on Dropbox servers. Essentially a built in cloud backup. Dropbox is programmed to check the folder and automatically make sure your files are the same on each device you use. Since you are using Dropbox for your work, I would suggest that you upgrade to the business edition of Dropbox. That will provide you with increased security and file recovery options.

peppers. These foods will have a low effect on your blood glucose, and they contain fiber, which will help you feel full faster. Share the load. “It’s common in diabetes households for one person to take on the majority of the diabetes tasks,� says Herbert. “But spreading the responsibilities over several family members helps you to avoid burnout and makes everyone feel more involved. Split up the diabetes management tasks among family members and friends. This lightens everyone’s workload, allows others to contrib-

ute, and makes the person with diabetes feel supported and gives the sense that he or she isn’t going it alone.� Combat caregiver fatigue. As the primary supporter of a person with diabetes, you may end up either giving too much or neglecting certain areas of your life. If you discover that you are overextending yourself, make time for some selfnurturing activities: Sign up for a class that interests you, find a walking buddy and take regular walks, or reconnect with friends and family with whom you’ve fallen out of touch.

taken for hunger and can lead to unnecessary snacking. Some experts suggest that adults should consume eight to ten 8-ounce glasses of water per day. Push for protein at mealtimes. Protein keeps you full and satisfied, builds lean muscle, and has very little impact on blood glucose. Aim for 3-4 ounces (about the size of your palm) of protein at each meal. Provide plenty of nonstarchy vegetables. If your loved one still feels hungry after finishing a meal, urge them to eat more non-starchy vegetables like leafy greens, broccoli, and

BUSINESS & FINANCE

Non-profit Credit Counseling Agency Savings Ideas STATEWIDE It’s the time of year when people resolve to change their lives, from getting in shape to improving relationships and achieving work-life balance. Financial goals also top the list of New Year’s resolutions – and are easier to attain than you might think. “It’s actually easy to cut expenses and save money – even a few dollars at a time – but many people give up too quickly,� said Mike Sullivan, a personal finance consultant with Take Charge America, a national non-profit credit

counseling and debt management agency. “The key is to set realistic goals, celebrate small victories and get creative with cost-cutting.� Sullivan offers nine tips for sticking to financial resolutions in 2019: Budget: It tops the list of every financial to-do list for a reason: it works! Write down your monthly income and expenses or seek out an online program or budgeting app. Pay Yourself: Speaking of budgets, build in a line item for your savings account or emergency fund. Even $25 a month

Insurance Policies Everyone Should Have Insurance is something everyone needs but hopes to never use. Without insurance, already difficult situations could be made much worse and cause financial devastation. Certain types of insurance may not be necessary for everyone, but other types are almost universally necessary regardless of the policy holder’s particular situation. The following are some examples of insurance policies everyone should have. Health insurance Everyone needs health insurance. The out-of-pocket costs for routine medical examinations can be quite high, and testing, hospitalization or surgery can take quite a toll on a person’s finances if he or she has no health insurance. In fact, a recent Harvard study noted that most people are statistically one serious illness away from bankruptcy. Shopping around for adequate coverage and the most affordable plans for one’s situation is essential, as even minimal coverage is better than nothing when it comes to offsetting the rising costs of health care. Life insurance Life insurance is something most people will never benefit from personally, but it leaves a financial legacy for the people they love, providing for those they leave behind. Parents or men and women who are the sole breadwinners in the household can rest easy knowing their life insurance will keep their loved ones financially secure in the event of their death. According to

the financial resource Investopedia, individuals need to factor in mortgage or rent payments, loans, funeral expenses, child care, and taxes when calculating how much life insurance coverage they need. Experts suggest 10 times one’s yearly income. Disability insurance Many people do not believe they will become ill or injured. But the statistics speak otherwise. Data from the Social Security Administration show that three in 10 workers entering the workforce will become disabled before they reach retirement. Being off from work anywhere from a few weeks to a few months is enough to jeopardize one’s financial future. Shortand long-term disability policies provide partial and complete income replacement depending on the policy chosen. Auto insurance

will make a difference over time. Join the Gig Economy: If your budget reveals that you need an income-boost, start earning extra cash by working for Lyft, Postmates or Uber Eats. Make Short-Term Goals: Instead of resolving to save thousands in 2019, aim to save $20, $50 or $100 a week or month – and celebrate each small victory. Spring Cleaning – in January: Clean out your closets, the garage, and even old furniture or dÊcor. Then, host a yard sale or list your items on eBay, Craigslist, or OfferUp. Declutter-

ing will save you money – and sanity. Sell Your Gift Cards: Trade your gift cards for cash at Cardpool or CardCash.com – and promptly put that cash into savings. Wait 24 Hours: To mitigate impulse buying, wait 24 hours before making an unplanned purchase. It’s likely the impulse will wear off. Drop Cable: It’s a monthly expense that can be replaced painlessly and inexpensively with Hulu, Netflix or Amazon Prime Video. Update your W4: While

many of us look forward to a big tax refund, it’s better to adjust your withholding to ensure you’re paying the right amount of taxes. This may mean a few extra bucks on each paycheck.

Pros And Cons To Early Retirement A lifetime of working compels many people to look forward to their retirement. Some people even work to retire early. But what are the advantages of early retirement beyond starting a life of leisure? And are there any detriments to this plan? Those who want to retire early may want to consider these pros and cons. Advantages: Many people seek early re-

People who drive are urged to have auto insurance to protect themselves in the event of an accident or theft. Auto insurance also helps protect against any litigation as the result of accidents when a passenger or other driver is injured. Insurance is a wholly necessary expense that provides peace of mind and protection. The Weekly Sentinel does not endorse any products or services suggested by third-party sources.

tirement so that they can live a life free of the constraints of schedules. In retirement, time becomes, more or less, a retiree’s own. Leaving a job can be a boon to a person’s health as well. Relieving oneself of the pressures and stresses of professional life can free up the mind and body. Stress can affect mental and physical health, taxing the heart and contributing to conditions such as depression or anxiety. According to the Mayo Clinic, stress can cause headache, muscle and chest pain and contribute to trouble

sleeping. The earlier the retirement, the more opportunity to travel before health issues begin to limit mobility. Early retirement also can be a way to volunteer more or even start a new job opportunity – one where workers have greater control over their schedules and careers. Disadvantages One of the disadvantages of early retirement is a loss of income. Contributions to retireSee RETIRE page 34...

Stir in the flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. The dough should be stiff enough to handle without sticking to fingers. If necessary, increase flour by up to 1/2 cup to prevent sticking. When the dough is smooth, roll it out to 1/4 inch thick on a floured surface, and cut into cookies. Place cookies on the prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven. The cookies are done when the top springs back when touched. Remove from cookie sheets and cool on wire racks. Decorate them anyway you want. Let your children or grandchildren decide how they want to decorate you will have a good laugh. Yield: 5 dozen cookies. Submitted by Paul Parent.

Safe Haven Humane Society

WELLS This is Piper. All of Piper’s family members have been adopted but you can help. This beautiful, two year-old dilute torti was rescued from a local barn but the property was being sold and the kitties had nowhere to go. They weren’t used to humans, so we had to use our Have-a-Heart traps to catch them. Piper’s been with us for two years and although she does have the company of other kitties in her kitty room, Piper hides from them as she doesn’t understand about roommates. We’re determined to find a nice loving home for Piper. She’ll be happiest in a quiet home, with understanding cat-lovers who will give her

the time and quiet she needs to adjust, relax, and feel safe. Piper’s very affectionate but she’s never had a stable home. Here at our adoption center we try to make it as homelike as possible, but it’s still a shelter and kitties, visitors and volunteers come and

Therapy Dogs Spread Joy

YORK COUNTY Waban’s Life Works volunteers bring in dogs every few weeks to meet, mingle and comfort members who appreciate the visits. In this photo, Juno, a five-year-old Great Dane therapy dog was brought in by Tina

Buckley, an Animal Control Officer in Eliot. Waban is located at 5 Dunaway Drive in Sanford and provides programs and services to help those with autism, intellectual/developmental, and other disabilities to live the most fulfilling lives possible.

go, rooms get rearranged and nothing stays the same. And If there’s anything cats don’t like, it’s CHANGE! Piper will undoubtedly enjoy the companionship of another laid-back animal companion. Perhaps a kitty that’s so lovable she won’t feel threatened, or an older dog who likes cats and doesn’t leap around the house. Please consider adopting dear Piper. Call 207646-1611 for more info or visit Piper at 1420 Post Road, Wells, 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. Tuesday - Saturday. Come and visit our volunteers, fill out a volunteer application and join us to continue keeping our kitties in comfort. It takes many hands to get all the work done. Volunteers work in small teams and everyone loves cats, so if you like wear-

ing comfy clothing, swinging a mop, scooping a cat box, baby-talkin our babies, join us! Our center is sunny, filled with happy cats. We are NOKILL so there’s no worrying about the welfare of our “residents.� They’re our kids, and they stay until the right home comes along. Christmas at our thrift shop will put you in the holiday spirit. We’re spilling over with decorations, housewares, and rack after rack of winter clothing bargains. We’re open 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. seven days a week, and Fridays till 8 p.m.

Animal Welfare Society KENNEBUNK From all of us at AWS, we wish you a very happy holiday! Will one of our pets be home for the holidays with you? We’re open this weekend (Dec. 22, 23, 24) from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Stop by to adopt and make a pet’s holiday wish come true! We will be closed for adoptions and visits on Christmas Day. Not ready to adopt but want to help? Our pets wrote their holiday letters to Santa and here’s what they asked for: Purina One/Whiskas Dry Cat Food, Fancy Feast/Friskies Canned Cat Food, Fancy Feast Canned Kitten Food, RoyalCanin Dry Kitten Food, Purina One Dry Dog Food, Iams Dry Puppy Food. Feeding our pets a consistent diet with the above brands keeps them happy and healthy during their stay. When we receive donations of food we can’t use for our pets, we reach out to local food pantries so that nothing goes to waste. They provide it to community members needing help feeding their own pets. Thank you for thinking of us this holiday season!

the community. Most recently, SIS has selected Animal Welfare Society of Kennebunk as its 32nd local charity to receive $500 as part of the Bank’s Employee Donation Program. Animal Welfare Society (AWS) is near and dear to many at SIS Bank. In fact, the no-kill animal shelter has received several donations made by SIS through various charitable campaigns because many SIS employees have found their pets at AWS. Maureen Theriault, Teller at the SIS Bank Waterboro branch, selected AWS as her charity of choice immediately because of her passion for helping and caring for animals. “AWS provides care and support for so many animals, and has positively impacted the lives of those pets as well as the individuals and families that have adopted them,� says SIS Bank President & CEO Blaine Boudreau. “We couldn’t be happier to continue our support of AWS, especially since

Joseph S. Taranto III, 57 YORK – Joseph S. Taranto III, formerly of Waltham, MA passed away unexpectedly, Monday, December 10, 2018 in his home at the age of 57. Born August 24, 1961 in Waltham, he was the son of the late Joseph S. and Carol Ann (Keniston) Taranto Jr. He was a veteran who had served in the United States Marine Corps. He worked as a chef, a landscaper and a plumber through the years. He enjoyed cooking, music, play-

STATEWIDE New research from AAA reveals that clouded or yellowed headlights generate only 20% of the amount of light that new headlights do, leading to dangerous nighttime driving conditions. This decrease is caused by sunlight damage to protective plastic coatings, resulting in discoloration that considerably diminishes the headlight’s ability to provide adequate light on dark roadways. This time of year drivers are on the road more when it’s dark and with 50 percent of crashes occurring at night, AAA urges drivers to check their headlights for signs of deterioration and invest in new headlights or, at a minimum, a low-cost service to boost the safety of driving after dark. “Walk through any parking lot and it is evident that deteriorated headlights are a prob-

Funeral services will be held privately. Memorial contributions may be made to a Veteran’s charity of your choice.

lem for most vehicle owners,” said Pat Moody, director of public affairs for AAA Northern New England. “Headlights on the road in the U.S., even when new, don’t produce enough lighting, so any reduction in performance is a real safety issue.” AAA examined the impact deterioration can have on the amount of light produced by conducting research using an accredited laboratory to test headlights from two popular sedans, approximately 11 years in age. Research revealed that deteriorated headlights, when used on low beam, provided just 22% of the amount of light a new headlight does when operating at full capacity. AAA also examined the effects that replacing or restoring a headlight can have on improving the amount of light produced. Replacing headlights with original equipment manufacturer parts is the most effective method to restore light output back to 100%. Aftermarket parts also performed well, restoring light output between 83 - 90%, however these did fail to meet certain requirements for light intensity and were found to be more likely to produce glare for oncoming traffic. Compounding the problem of driving with deteriorated headlights is the fact that U.S. headlights have significant shortcomings. Previous AAA research found that halogen headlights fail to safely illuminate unlit roadways at speeds as low as 40 mph, with high beam settings offering only marginal Harrison Page, Erika Parker, Riley Parnham, Emmanuel Poe, William Poteracki, Aidan Pride, Rowan Pruett, Noah Quarter, Lydia Ruksznis, Katherine Sanborn, Mercedez Sanchez, Benjamin Santisi, Zachary Schadler, Connor Shepard, Zoey Silver, Lillian Sintiris, Stella Sorbello, Douglass Starkey, Margaret Swenson, Luis Teixeira, Aiden Weeks, Jasmine Wendell, Bradley Wentworth, Olivia Wiggin, Isabelle Young.

improvements. Even the most advanced headlights tested illuminated just 40% of the sight distances that the full light of day provides. By not maintaining headlights, drivers are unknowingly operating in dangerously dim conditions. “AAA’s testing results show that headlights found on U.S. vehicles fall short on safety,” said Moody. “By failing to properly light roadways at moderate speeds, a pedestrian or animal may not become visible to a driver until it’s too late to stop.” Most headlights are made of plastic and exposure to sunlight breaks down the plastic coating, causing discoloration that obscures the amount of light produced. Depending on where and how the vehicle is used, headlights can begin showing signs of deterioration as early as three years to five years. Unlike batteries or tires, most drivers are not in the habit of routinely inspecting their headlights. AAA suggests drivers check their headlights for changes in appearance such as yellowing or clouding and if the bulb is difficult to see, it is time to have the lenses replaced or restored as soon as possible. AAA recommends replacement since this method offers the most improvement in the amount of light produced. Also, Regularly clean your lenses with a household glass cleaner. Even a simple cleaning can make a big difference in how well you can see, especially if you live in an area with a lot of snow, ice, or road salt. Both replacement and restoration services are provided by many repair shops including many AAA Approved Auto Repair facilities.

Take steps to make sure your holiday decorations are safe. Inspect all lights, decorations and extension cords for damage before using. It’s also important to make sure the decorations you’re using outdoors are marked for outdoor use. Additionally, turning off all indoor and outdoor electrical decorations before leaving home or going to sleep can prevent the chance of a fire. Extinguish candles before leaving the house or going to bed. One-half of candle-related fire deaths occur between midnight and 6 a.m. from candles that were forgotten and continued to burn. Always place candles in stable holders and keep them in safe areas where they will not be accidentally toppled over. Make sure your home is

A child may pull them down and attempt to eat them. And be sure your child doesn’t have access to dangerous plants. Mistletoe, holly berries and Jerusalem cherries can be poisonous if consumed in large amounts. Don’t let your garbage advertise your new gadgets. Make sure to recycle the boxes of any expensive items you received over the holidays. Setting out a box with the picture of a giant TV on it is a prime invitation for burglars.

Keep Safety in Mind When Using Snow Blowers STATEWIDE The Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI) encourages home and business owners to ready their snow throwers and other winter equipment before snow flurries and winter storms arrive. Clearing driveways, sidewalks and parking lots is no small job and you rely on your outdoor power equipment to make these big jobs easy, but it’s also important to keep safety in mind when using snow throwers, often referred to as snow blowers. “Get your snow thrower serviced now, before repair shops are busy. Weather is more unpredictable than ever, so you want to be ready before the first flakes fall,� says OPEI President and CEO Kris Kiser. “Review your owner’s manual now so you can use your equipment safely, and have the right fuel on hand. Remember, protect your power. Gasolinepowered snow throwers should use E10 or less.� OPEI offers the following questions to get ready for old man winter: Getting Ready Have you read your owner’s manual? Read up for safe handling procedures. If you lost your manual, you can look it up online (and store a copy on your computer so you have the manual available to reference in the future). Review how to operate the controls. You should be able to shut off your equipment quickly. Have you checked your

equipment since storing it? Make sure all equipment is completely powered off when checking it over. If you forgot to drain the fuel last winter before storing your snow thrower, drain the gas tank now. Adjust any cables and check the auger—again when the equipment is powered off. Did you put your equipment where you can get to it easily? Move your equipment to a convenient and accessible location, so you can get to it easily when you need it. Have you purchased the right fuel? Due to power outages, gas stations may be closed after a storm so have some on hand. Be sure to use the correct fuel, as recommended by your equipment’s manufacturer (for more information on fueling properly see www.LookBeforeYouPump. com). Place gasoline in a fuel container and label it with the date purchased and the ethanol content of the fuel. Use fresh fuel in your snow thrower as fuel that is more than 30 days old can phase separate and cause operating problems. Make sure fuel is stored safely and out of the reach of children. Are you fueling safely? Before you start the engine fill up the fuel tank on your snow thrower outside while the engine is cold. Never add fuel to a running or hot engine. Are batteries charged? If using a battery/electric-powered snow-thrower, make sure batteries are fully charged, in case electric-

...RETIRE from page 19 ment accounts also ceases at retirement. This can lead to financial setbacks if adequate savings were not allocated for retirement. According to the resource Wealth How, some people who retire early fear outliving their savings. While retiring early may be good for health, it also can have negative consequences. An analysis from the National Bureau of Economic Research found that retirement can lead to declines in mental health and mobility as well as feelings of isolation. Retiring early may jump start these

health implications. Another consideration is that health insurance provided by an employer typically ends at retirement. That means having to pay out of pocket until a person ages into government-subsidized healthcare, such as Medicare in the United States, at age 65. Retiring early is a complex issue that requires weighing the pros and cons. The Weekly Sentinel does not endorse any products or services suggested by third-party sources.

ity goes out during a winter storm. Is the area you intend to clear free of obstructions or hidden obstacles? Snow can hide objects. Doormats, hoses, balls, toys, boards, wires, and other debris should be removed from the areas you intend to clear. When run over by a snow thrower, these objects may harm the machine or people. Are you dressed properly for winter weather? Locate your safety gear now, and place it in an accessible closet or location in your home. Plan to wear safety glasses, gloves and footwear that can handle cold and slippery surfaces. Operating Snow Throwers Safely NEVER put your hands inside the auger or chute. Use a clean out tool (or stick) to unclog snow or debris from your snow thrower. Always turn off your snow thrower and wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop before clearing any clogs or debris. Never operate the snow thrower without good visibility or light. Never throw snow toward people or cars. Do not allow anyone to stand in front of your snow thrower. Keep children or pets away from your snow thrower when it is operating. Do not attempt to clear steep slopes and use caution when changing directions on slopes or inclines. If you have an electricpowered snow thrower, be aware of where the power cord is at all times. Avoid tripping. Do not run over the power cord. Kids and pets may love to play in the white stuff, but it’s best to keep them inside your home and under supervision while you are using your snow thrower to clear a path or drive. Do not allow them to play in the snow as it is tossed out of the snow thrower’s chute. More safety tips and information are available at www.opei. org.

WELLS In the Ward Gymnasium, the Wells-Ogunquit CSD School Committee recognized the Wells High School Warriors football team and coaching staff for their recent successful season when they won their third consecutive Class D state football championship. Head coach Timothy Roche was the first to be recognized by the Committee for being named Maine State Coach of the Year, 2017-2018 by the Federation of State High School Associations and the

Maine Principal’s Association. Coach Roche then gave WellsOgunquit CSD Superintendent Jim Daly one of three footballs used in this year’s championship game with Foxcroft Academy. â€œâ€Śthis ball was a touchdown ball presented to Mr. Daly in appreciation of all he does, not only for Wells Football, but for our District,â€? commented Roche later. Next, members of Roche’s coaching staff were recognized for their leadership and commitment to the team. They included Mark Lewia, Kevin Fox,

Carmen Perri, Rob Berry, John Bucci, Shane Daly and Chad Daly. Then, one by one, the Warriors team was called to the front to receive their own Certificate of Recognition. Team members included Nathan Coleman, Brayden Fazzina, Brady Fox, Daniel Marquis, Aaron Patnaude, Dan Swanick, Mike Thiffault, Jonathan Brown, Evan Cash, Craig Chase, Connor Lavigne, Jonah Potter, Devin Chace, Evan Leach, Payton MacKay, Braeden MacNeill, Joshua

Up For Something New? Try These Off-The-Radar Winter Sports use kite power to glide across the snow or ice. Foil kites once dominated the snowkiting landscape, but many snowkiters now prefer inflatable kites. Snowkiting can be very dangerous, so it’s important that men and women interested in snowkiting learn the proper techniques, which can be difficult to master.

Winter sports like skiing and snowboarding are wildly popular across the globe. Athletes from both sports compete every four years at the Winter Olympics, while millions of their fellow athletes take to the slopes each winter for recreational purposes. While skiing and snowboarding may dominate the outdoor winter sports landscape, there are plenty of off-the-radar outdoor sports that are growing in popularity among people looking for something a little different.

Fat biking Though its name might leave much to be desired, fat biking is growing in popularity among athletes who love riding bikes but have traditionally had to put their bikes in the garage once the temperatures dip. Fat bikes are similar to traditional bicycles, but they come with oversized tires and wider rims that make it possible for the bikes to handle unstable terrain, including terrain covered in snow.

Snowkiting Much like snowboarding appeals to surfers and skateboarders, snowkiting has found a fan base among people who enjoy kiteboarding when the weather is warm. Snowkiters

Marshwood’s Rix Chosen as Coach of the Year SOUTH BERWICK The Maine Principals’ Association has named Marshwood High School’s Wrestling Coach, Matt Rix as the 20172018 NFHS State Wrestling Coach of the Year. Matt was selected from a pool of many outstanding wrestling coaches and in addition to being selected as state coach of the year, Coach Rix has also moved forward into the pool of state awardees from the other section 1 states and will be considered for Section 1 wrestling coach of the year. ditions even colder for ice boat sailors. But many ice boat sailors find the sport is even more fun than traditional sailing.

Mountain biking enthusiasts may favor fat biking, as the sport allows them to traverse snowcovered trails their mountain bikes are typically unable to traverse.

Skijoring Skijoring may be a less accessible winter sport, as it involves people on skis being pulled by a dog, horse or vehicle. The sport originated centuries ago in Scandinavia as a way for military members to speed up the process of sharing messages. Skijoring with dogs typically involves men or women being pulled by one to three dogs, each of which is wearing a sled dog harness (men and women wear skijoring harnesses). Dogs

Ice boating For those who simply love to be out on the water, ice boating is a great way to fulfill your winter fix for sailing. Ice boats are similar to sailboats, but they are typically fitted with runners, also called skates, or skis and designed to run over frozen waters instead of through water. Ice boats tend to sail across ice-covered surfaces at high speeds, and that can make already cold con-

are not controlled by reins, but rather must be motivated to keep moving by their own desire to run. A single horse is typically enough for equestrian skijoring, and horses are typically guided by a rider. Small motorized vehicles, such as snowmobiles, are typically used in motorized skijoring. Athletes need not sequester themselves indoors when temperatures dip below freezing. In fact, there are several lesser known outdoor sports athletes can enjoy this winter.
