Make history come alive for your family (StatePoint) It may have been many years since you picked up a history textbook. But learning about times gone by can be a worthwhile pursuit -- whether you want to be better prepared to help your children with homework or to beef up your own store of knowledge. Luckily, there are much more fascinating and engaging ways to become a history buff than by reading a standard textbook. To make history come alive for you and your family, consider the following: Historical fiction Revisit and rethink historical fact with inventive fictional novels inspired by true events. Historical fiction can be a fascinating way to get acquainted with history. Check out one such new read, “The Lusitania Conspiracy,” which explores events surrounding the infamous sinking of the RMS Lusitania, a British ocean liner, and at the time, one of the world’s fastest and most luxurious passenger ships. In time for its 100th anniversary, history buff and author Ron Walters details a series of intense events involving mystery, murder, and perhaps even crimes against humanity, offering one possible explanation as to what occurred so long ago on May 7, 1915.
According to Walters, the truth behind the sinking, which involved the loss of 1,200 lives is “the greatest story never told.” The story of the Lusitania has been overshadowed by the Titanic’s sinking for nearly 100 years, even though it’s far more interesting and intriguing,” says Walters. Though it is fiction, the book is based on real events and features historical figures. After enjoying the novel, you can look forward to a film version, currently in the works. For information, visit www.thelusitaniaconspiracy.com. Take a vacation The next time you travel, take an opportunity to get more deeply acquainted with your destination by learning about its history. Were any battles fought there? Did important figures spend time there? Almost every location has an interesting story behind it and seeing where an event took place can help bring facts to life and shed light on a story. Consider planning a family vacation around an historical site like Gettysburg, site of one of the largest battles of the Civil War and President Abraham Lincoln’s famous Gettysburg Address. Or you can visit a place like Los Alamos, home to the
Manhattan Project during World War II. There are many destinations with historical meaning that can be explored by your family. Make it personal History extends beyond the famous and infamous. Everyday people have interesting stories to tell as well -- including your ancestors.
Delving into your own family’s past is now easier than ever, as there are online services that can help you search historical records and documents to piece together your story far into the past. Supplement your research by conducting interviews with relatives and record the sessions for posterity

Explore regional waterways by canoe or kayak by Terra Osterling Spring, summer, and fall in Western New York make our winters worth the wait, especially if the view is from one of our region’s waterways. The Erie Canal and the creeks, ponds and tributaries of Western New York offer many opportunities to paddle through local landscapes. Kayaking and canoeing can be either a leisurely excursion or great exercise for families and individuals of any age. Seasoned paddlers may be “in the know” about where to launch, but the Erie Canal offers many safe points of access, as do the Oak Orchard Creek and River, and Black Creek.
Paddling the Erie Canal
The Canalway Water Trail is part of a growing system of water trails across New York State, featuring over 125 public access points along the 524-mile Canal System. For an interactive map and more information on launches and passing through locks, visit www.canals.ny.gov/maps/ paddling-watertrail.html (There are no permits or fees required for locking through with a non-motorized vessel.) Try these regional Erie Canal launches (for precise locations, set your GPS or internet search to the provided coordinates):

Paddling Oak Orchard River & Creek, and Glenwood Lake
The Oak Orchard River begins at the Oak Orchard swamps in Genesee County, flows through Orleans County, emptying into Lake Ontario at Point Breeze. One of the highest-utilized tributaries on Lake Ontario, the Oak Orchard River also offers fantastic fishing opportunities. Oak Orchard River and Lake Alice: Waterport Launch into Lake Alice (a.k.a. Waterport Reservoir) at the boat ramp on Route 279, 4 miles north of Route 104. Rentals available at oakorchardcanoe.com or call 585-6824849. Oak Orchard Creek, Glenwood Lake, & the Erie Canal: Medina Paddling Oak Orchard Creek through the Village of Medina would not be advisable, due to whitewater conditions at the falls just north of the Canal aqueduct, and, due to steep banks without easy access points. Launch either at John E. Butts Park (South Main Street Park) and paddle south/away from the Village, or launch from Glenwood Lake north of Medina. Access Glenwood Lake at Boxwood Cemetery or from the boat ramp off Route 63, off Nymo Road in Ridgeway, 2.3 miles south of Route 104. Note: Though the Erie Canal passes over Oak Orchard Creek via an aqueduct at the Village of Medina, there is no easy portage from one body of water to the other. Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge is located in the rural towns of Alabama and Shelby mid-way between Rochester and Buffalo, NY. Canoes, kayaks or fishing boats without motors may access Oak Orchard Creek in the Alabama Swamps, at crossings with Knowlesville Road, Route 63, and Sour Springs Road. Watch for obstructions including beaver dams.
Paddling Black Creek: Churchville
Black Creek drains from the Bergen Swamp west of Rochester, passing through wooded areas in the towns of Bergen, Riga, and Chili. Rentals available at Lighthouse Kayak & Canoe Rentals/Black Creek Supply, 22 E Buffalo St, Churchville, NY 14428, (585) 489-9867. Launch at Bergen, by parking at the northeast corner of the Route 19 bridge over Black Creek, at the end of the guardrail. Approximately 1.5 miles north of the Village of Bergen. Launch at Churchville Park (Route 36, Main Street, Village of Churchville). Follow signs to the gravel ramp canoe launch, off Park Road. This is above the dam for paddles upstream to Sweden Road or Bergen Swamp. Launch below the dam, across Route 33 from Churchville Fire Department, for trips downstream.
What to bring on your paddle: • Personal Flotation Device • Sunglasses • Sunblock • Hat • Dry Bag for valuables • Drinking Water • Plus, know your waterway and expected conditions!

Protect your pets from ticks Bruce Kornreich, Associate Director for Education and Outreach at the Cornell Feline Health Center, warns pet owners now that tick season is here your pets are at risk of contracting tickborne diseases like Lyme disease, Hemobartonellosis, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, babesiosis, and others. He offers advice to pet owners looking to protect their pets. “To remove a tick, use a fine-tipped tweezer, hold it near the animal’s skin, grasp the tick and pull upwards without twisting. You should never directly handle or crush a tick with your hands. To dispose of ticks after removal, place them in a sealed bag, flush them down the toilet, wrap them tightly in tape, or immerse them in alcohol. Washing your hands well after removing a tick is a good idea. “Don’t believe the old tales about using burned matches, nail polish, or Vaseline to kill ticks embedded in the skin. Removal is a much better idea, and do it as soon as possible because there’s evidence that suggests the longer you wait the more likely it is your pet will contract a tickborne illness. “Regular tick checks are really important for pets and humans. To find ticks on your cat or dog, you will have to feel them all over with your fingers. It’s a lot harder to find ticks on long haired animals than short haired animals. Often people won’t find them until they’ve taken a blood
meal, which makes them larger and more conspicuous. “If the tick is engorged with blood, then it’s been feeding for a while and it’s more likely that your pet could contract a tickborne illness. You can preserve the tick by taping it - with clear tape - to a piece of paper and keeping it in the freezer or preserve it in a small container of rubbing alcohol. If your pet becomes sick in the following weeks or months, your vet may be able to identify the tick, and that may provide information about the possible diseases involved. “Lyme disease has never been seen in cats except in a laboratory setting when they’ve been deliberately infected. But in dogs, Lyme disease is one of the most common tickborne illnesses. Lameness is often the first sign of Lyme infection, and if your dog becomes lame during tick season you should be doubly suspicious of the possibility of Lyme. Other signs of infection include lethargy and fever. “It’s important to be proactive about preventing tick infestation for the sake of your pet and for your own health. These diseases don’t just effect animals - they effect humans, too. “There are a variety of products that you can use to protect your pet from tick infestation. Speak to your veterinarian about the pros and cons of each of these choices.”

Grill Smart
Start the summer right with grill safety Now that it has finally started to warm up, many New Yorkers are enjoying their barbecues and other outdoor amenities. And while gas grills, portable fire pits, and patio heaters make outdoor spaces comfortable and desirable places to gather… it’s important that they are used properly. The New York Propane Gas Association (NYPGA) helps consumers keep grilling season safe with an interactive online module on grilling from the Propane Education & Research Council at www.propanesafety. com/grilling-safety. Consumers learn proper grilling procedures using propane, in English or Spanish, and it takes less than 10 minutes to complete. •Safety for kids The grilling area should be designated as a “No Play Zone,” keeping kids and pets away from the equipment. To help kids learn about gas grill safety, the Propane Education & Research Council has launched the fun interactive website www.propanekids. com. Some key safety tips include: •Ventilation Always keep the lid open when lighting your grill. Don’t close it until you are sure the grill is lit. Keep the grill in a well-ventilated outdoor area, at least ten feet away from the house—and at least three feet away from trees and shrubs. Never cover the bottom of the grill with foil - it can restrict air circulation. Always use and store propane cylinders outdoors in an upright position. After filling or exchanging a cylinder, take it home immediately. While transporting the cylinder, keep your vehicle ventilated and the valve closed or capped. Do not leave the cylinder in your vehicle.
•Firing up the grill safely Never use matches or lighters to check for leaks. And never use starter fluid with propane grills. Do not smoke while handling a propane cylinder, and keep all flammable materials away from the grill. If the grill does not ignite within ten seconds, turn off the gas, keep the lid open and wait five minutes before trying again. If the igniter fails to light the grill after two
or three tries, turn off the gas and replace the igniter according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Regularly check the tubes that lead into the burner for blockage from insects or food grease. Never attempt to repair, clean or clear blockages on a hot grill. General safety tips Always have one person in charge of the
fire at all times. Never leave a hot grill unattended. Never attempt to repair the tank valve or the appliance yourself. See a propane gas dealer or a qualified appliance repair person. Be sure to locate your model number and the manufacturer’s consumer inquiry phone number and write them on the front page of your manual. If you smell gas and you are able to, safely turn off the cylinder valve, turning it to the right (clockwise). Immediately leave the area and call 911 or your local fire department. Before you use the grill again, have a qualified service technician inspect your cylinder. Provided information
Check out this flag flying guide for important summer holidays Summer isn’t just the season of baseball, barbecues, vacation and fresh produce. It’s also flag season. Three of the country’s most important patriotic holidays - Memorial Day, Flag Day and Independence Day - arrive with summer, and across the nation proud Americans will show their patriotism by displaying the American flag. The federal law known as the “Flag Code” establishes a guide for handling and displaying Old Glory. If you’ll be showing your American pride this year by displaying the flag or decorating with bunting, here’s a thumbnail review of the code’s guidelines so you can be confident in all you do: •It’s OK to display the flag ‘round the clock, but you should illuminate it during nighttime hours. If you’re not able to light the flag at night, the code recommends displaying only between sunrise and sunset. •Hoist it briskly and lower it slowly and ceremoniously. •Bring your flag in out of rain or snow. •The blue and white stars field - known as “the union” - should always be up: at the top of the flag if it’s on a staff or pole, uppermost and to the observer’s left if the
flag is being displayed horizontally or vertically against a wall. Displaying the flag with the union down is a signal of dire distress and reserved for instances of extreme danger to life or property. •The flag should be kept from touching
the ground, floor, water or anything beneath it. •Bunting is an acceptable patriotic display; arrange it with the blue portion at the top, the white in the middle and the red at the bottom.

Summertime skin care tips (StatePoint) In summer you want your skin to look and feel its best. But all that extra exposure introduces more risks of irritation, rashes and bites. “If you’re careful and prepared, you can reduce your risk for certain ailments as well as limit your discomfort,” says Dr. Vishakha Gigler, a board certified dermatologist in Encinitas, California. Here’s a handy guide your family can use to avoid and treat skin woes, such as itching and pain, most common in the summer months. •Prevent sunburn by always applying a high SPF sunblock before sun exposure. If possible, wait 15 minutes before walking outdoors. Don’t forget to reapply after excessive sweating or water exposure. •If you do get burned, relieve inflammation and redness by applying ice in a milksoaked face cloth to affected areas for five to 10 minutes. •Protect your pucker and treat dry, chapped lips with shea butter or beeswax lip balm with SPF, which moisturize while providing sun protection. •Drink plenty of cold water to cool down
and hydrate your body and skin. •Mosquitoes dwell in areas near standing water and are attracted to hot skin temperatures. Keep skin cool and eliminate standing water from your yard. Also, be mindful that mosquitoes are most active at dusk. •Do you live near a wooded area? Are you taking advantage of the season to go hiking or camping? Avoid exposure to poisonous plants by wearing long pants, long shirts and boots, along with a topically applied ivy block barrier cream to prevent getting a poison ivy or oak rash breakout. •When prevention fails, adults and children two years and older can treat bug bites and other itchy summer skin flareups with a dermatologist-recommended, over-the-counter non-steroid-based topical treatment, such as TriCalm. A highly effective itch relief gel, TriCalm is five times more effective than hydrocortisone 1% at reducing itch, and does not have side effects like skin thinning and stretch marks, according to the manufacturer.

Summer Guide 2015
Get fit this summer (StatePoint) Everybody wants to be in shape for bathing suit season, but all those fun seasonal activities -- from barbecues to vacations to baseball games -- can derail a diet. Here are some tips to help you get fit, so you can look and feel your best all summer:
Vacations
It’s tempting to leave healthy habits behind when heading out of town. But an off week can seriously affect your diet. When possible, opt for active vacations, such as camping trips or touring a city by
Health and
Fitness
foot. If you’re planning a more sedentary getaway, stay somewhere with a fitness facility. Vacations can be rare, so don’t sacrifice all the treats of the trip. Prioritize mealtime indulgences so you can enjoy yourself mindfully. For travel days, pack healthful snacks such as fresh fruit, nuts and yogurt as alternatives to high-calorie airport or roadside food.
Daily diet
It’s important to assess whether you’re eating the foods you need to get “fit,” versus foods that merely encourage weight
Suburban News & Hamlin-Clarkson Herald
loss, say experts. “Unfortunately, many fad diets can leave you feeling fatigued, sluggish or undernourished,” says Andrew Eckhardt, owner and founder of ThinSlim Foods and a veteran diet food consumer. To eat right, don’t starve yourself. Stock up on fruits and vegetables, low-fat dairy and lean meats. And just because you’re slimming down or maintaining your already svelte figure, doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice your favorite foods or go carbfree. Try replacing standard cake or wheat flours with healthy alternatives, like oat fiber and almond fiber. In one shot, you’ll cut calories and increase your protein and fiber intake. If regular baking is unrealis-
tic, look for brands that replace low-quality inexpensive flours and sugar substitutes with good-for-you alternatives.
Exercise
Summer is a great opportunity to start a fitness regimen that you can stick with all year. You should strive to get at least two and a half hours a week of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity, preferably spread throughout the week, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. Additionally, you should incorporate muscle-strengthening activities into your regimen to stay strong and improve your metabolism. A workout buddy can help you stay motivated.

Take your next train ride on a vintage trolley Enjoy transportation history in motion. Just 20 minutes south of Rochester in Rush, a unique experience offers fun for the whole family. The only trolley ride in New York State operates every Sunday throughout the summer bringing transportation history to life in a rural setting. The ride is reminiscent of the interurban trolley era that once saw high-speed trolleys connecting Rochester with Buffalo, Syracuse, Geneva and Sodus. In addition to the trolley ride, visitors are welcome to climb into the cab of a real steam locomotive to ring the bell and imagine rolling down the rails like Casey Jones. They can also delight in the mahogany paneled luxury of century-old interurban trolley cars, take the driver’s seat of a historic fire truck, and view numerous photo displays and artifacts from our region’s rich transportation heritage. On a smaller scale, several HO scale model trains operate on the huge 11 ft. by 21 ft. train layout, complete with mountains, bridges, and a city inhabited by hundreds of hand-painted citizens. An N scale layout depicting the old Rochester Subway features tiny trolleys speeding along the
route carrying miniature citizens throughout a detailed model of the Flower City at mid-century. Ride the only electric trolley in New York State - It’s a scenic mile to the end of the line aboard an authentic 1920s interurban electric trolley. Rides depart every half hour throughout the day, starting at 11:30 and no advance reservations are required. New York Museum of Transportation is open year-round. The fun doesn’t stop when the summer ride season ends. The New York Museum of Transportation remains open Sundays throughout the year, featuring “mini-events” that celebrate trains, trolleys and transportation history, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Weekday group tours by appointment. Entrance is a 6393 East River Road, just one mile north of Route 251 (exit 11 off I-390). Museum admission, including unlimited trolley rides, is $8 Adults, $7 Seniors (65+), $6 Youth (3-12). Kids age 2 and under are free if they sit on an accompanying adult’s lap on the ride. (585) 533-1113 or www.nymtmuseum.org. Provided information

Bicyclists and motorists need to share the road As spring begins to turn to summer, more bicyclists are hitting the roadways for recreation, fitness and transportation. Riding a bike can be a dangerous mode of travel. To recognize National Bike Month is May, AAA Western and Central New York has these tips: •Share the road. Bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as motorists, including the right to ride in the traffic lane •Slow down and allow at least three feet of clearance when passing a bicyclist •Check mirrors and blind spots before turning, changing lanes or opening car doors. •Never honk your horn at a bicyclist. They may startle and swerve off the road or into traffic. •Be especially cautious around chil-
dren on bikes. They are often unsteady and unpredictable. Safety doesn’t just depend on those operating a vehicle. Bicyclists also need to follow the rules of the road: •Always ride with traffic, using the rightmost lane, obeying the same laws as motorists. •Use hand and arm signals to indicate your intention to stop, merge or turn. •Be visible and ride where drivers can see you. Do not ride on the sidewalk. Wear brightly colored clothing at all times. •Be predictable by riding in a straight line and avoid swerving between parked cars. •Wear a helmet: When worn properly, helmets are up to 85 percent effective in protecting the head and brain in the event of a crash.

Keep your vehicle safe -and looking great this summer Do your brakes squeal when you push on the pedal to stop? Have you been ignoring that unsightly puddle of liquid that keeps appearing under your car? Small inconveniences can become much larger problems if not taken care of early, and unfortunately, many drivers fail to address vehicle problem signs until it’s too late. Frequent checks and proper maintenance can make all the difference between a safe, attractive vehicle and an unreliable eyesore. With a few tips, you can get your vehicle into top shape for easy cruising this summer and beyond. Don’t wait, fix it fast With the sun shining a little brighter this time of year, those vehicle nicks, scratches and dents suddenly become much more noticeable. And more importantly, they can begin to rust in as little as 30 days. This visible exterior problem can quickly reduce your vehicle’s resale value, not to mention its cosmetic appeal. Fortunately, you can avoid these ugly and potentially costly problems by using a touch up paint such as Dupli-Color Scratch Fix touch-up paint. Available in hundreds of exact-match colors, the paint offers a seamless fix to nearly any vehicle damage. Rolling on out Tires are one of the most important aspects of vehicle safety, and proper maintenance can prolong tread life and save money on replacements. Rotating tires every 7,000 miles can help keep treads from wearing irregularly. A simple tire rotation not only makes for a dependable vehicle, but also saves money in the long run because your tires will last longer.
Another tire must is to regularly check for uneven wear, bulges or holes. These small issues may not seem like much, but they have a very real possibility of causing larger problems such as a tire blow out or skidding on the road. If a defect is spotted, make sure to have that tire replaced immediately. Internal workings Despite the warnings, many people put off changing their vehicle oil far longer than recommended. Whether the excuse is lack of time, money or some other factor, regular oil changes are vital to proper car maintenance. No matter what time of year or how often you drive, you need to check oil every three months or 3,000 miles - whichever occurs first. Changing oil will prevent residue buildup, allowing your vehicle to function more efficiently and safely. Forgoing this routine check could lead to an unexpected engine seize, causing costly and potentially dangerous damage. Lights out A burnt-out light bulb in your living room can be a nuisance, but a burnt-out light on your car can be extremely dangerous, and may even earn you a traffic ticket. Perform regular inspections of your car lights by turning all lights on - including turn signals - then walking around the car to determine if any need to be replaced. Car lights are typically inexpensive and are usually easy to install. The risks of ignoring a burnt-out car light far outweigh the cost of the bulb, so perform a quick check before your next night drive. ARA Content
