• On June 14, 1789, English Captain William Bligh and 18 others, cast adrift from the HMS Bounty seven weeks before, reach the East Indies after traveling nearly 4,000 miles in a small open boat.

Today there are more than 80,000 local groups in the U.S. • On June 8, 1949, George Orwell’s novel of a dystopian future, “1984,â€? is published. The novel’s all-seeing leader, known as “Big Brother,â€? becomes a universal symbol for intrusive government and oppressive bureaucracy. • On June 13, 1966, the Supreme Court hands down its decision in Miranda v. Arizona, establishing the principle that all criminal suspects must be advised of their rights when in custody and about to be interrogated. • On June 9, 1973, with a victory at the Belmont Stakes, Secretariat becomes the first horse since Citation in 1948 to win America’s coveted Triple Crown.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has recommended that people wear cloth face coverings in public settings where social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. Even as the world begins to unpause, wearing masks seems likely to continue. According to Penni Watts, Ph.D., RN, an assistant professor of nursing at the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Nursing, masks are designed not to prevent the wearer from getting ill, but to protect other people from getting the virus. Masks protect others from your germs when you cough or sneeze. They’re also an effective way to help people to avoid touching their faces. Masks are exposed to the elements and germs each time they are worn, meaning they will require cleaning. Even though Harvard Health suggests COVID-19 may live more readily on hard surfaces than fabric, the CDC urges people to give cloth face masks the same level of care as regular laundry. Masks should be washed and dried often. The CDC offers these tips on how to clean most cloth and fabric masks. • Fabric face masks should be washed depending on the frequency of use. More frequent use necessitates more frequent washing. • A washing machine should be adequate for properly washing a face covering. Choose a warm setting for water temperature. Place masks in the dryer afterward. • More delicate, hand-sewn masks may be washed by hand, suggests The Good Housekeeping Institute Cleaning Lab. Lather masks

with soap and scrub them for at least 20 seconds with warm or hot water before placing in the dryer. • For additional sanitation, iron masks on the cotton or linen setting for a few minutes to kill remaining germs. • If masks are fortified with a filter, such as a coffee or HVAC filter, keep in mind that these filters are designed for single use. Paper filters should be replaced after each use. HVAC filters are washable, but manufacturers warn that their effectiveness decreases with each wash. Medium weight nonwoven interface used as filter material is typically washable. Various health agencies do not condone using steam or microwaves to clean cloth face masks, as these sanitizing techniques are not as effective as regular laundering. Also, never microwave non-fabric dust or N95 respirator masks if you are using them. They can catch fire or be rendered useless. Cloth face masks can help safeguard against germs like the novel coronavirus. However, they need to be cleaned regularly to remain sanitary.

Mushrooms Are Ready For Their Closeup (NAPSI)—In the ensemble cast of the produce aisle, finding a stand-out player can sometimes be difficult. After all, each has its own unique characteristics, whether it be taste, nutrition, or health benefits. However, when it comes to mushrooms—which are grown in the dark in nondescript growing houses across the country—it might seem they’re averse to attention. Yet mushrooms are increasingly taking a starring role on consumers’ plates. Often called the superfood in the produce section, mushrooms take a supporting role in a recipe or shine as the lead of a dish. These formidable fungi are a source of powerful nutrients, low in calories and sodium, and they’re fat-, cholesterol- and gluten-free. Mushrooms As Health Helpers When it comes to the subject of health, researchers are increasingly turning their spotlight on mushrooms. Mushrooms are so talented, researchers are looking to them in the fight against cancer. A powder made from white button mushrooms was found to reduce the levels of prostate specific antigen, or PSA, in prostate cancer patients whose PSA levels had been rising. Studies are also underway to determine if properties within mushrooms might offer a dietary, non-drug intervention to help prevent recurrence of hormone-dependent breast cancers.
Ongoing research at Penn State University shows mushrooms have the highest known single source of the antioxidants ergothioneine and glutathione compared to other non-mushroom food. Both those antioxidants are associated with anti-aging, and when they’re present together, they work extra hard to protect the body from the physiological stress that causes visible signs of aging and they may also help prevent Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. Plus, studies show it takes only a few mushrooms to increase ergothioneine and glutathione levels—about five button mushrooms a day. Additionally, researchers at the National University of Singapore found similar results and discovered that less than one cup of cooked mushrooms twice a week could reduce the odds of mild cognitive decline. With so many varieties, tastes, and textures, it’s easy to incorporate mushrooms into a diet. The next time you’re in the produce section of your grocery store, pick up your favorite variety of mushrooms. In soup, on a pizza, stuffed, sautéed or sliced, chances are these mighty mushrooms will get a round of applause from family and friends.
The mighty mushroom, in all its varieties, can be a tasty way to protect your health.

Puzzle Pitcher This elaborately decorated puzzle pitcher was made in Budapest, Hungary. In 1839, Moritz Fischer bought a factory that had been operating in Herend, Hungary, since 1826. He started making dinner sets for Hungarians because the old sets from Europe and the Far East were no longer available. The company started making figurines in the 1870s. At the turn of the century, Jeno, Moritz Fischer’s grandson, took over the company, revived the old patterns and made new ones. Fischer Company was nationalized in 1948. Another company named Herend started importing Herend china into the United States in 1957. Herend was privatized in 1993 and is still working making Hungarian-style ceramics. Just how old is this traditional puzzle jug marked “Fischer J Budapest�? In Hungarian, surnames are written first, and I and J are the same. The Fischer J in the mark stands for Ignac Fischer, a distant relative of Moritz, who trained with his father and later with Moritz. In 1867, Ignac started making his own ceramics that were similar to those made at the Zsolnay factory. Around 1895, Ignac Fischer’s company became part of the Zsolnay factory in Pecs. The mark on the puzzle jug was used from about 1867 to about 1895, even though the pieces look much older. *** Can you tell me the approximate value of old newspapers and magazines? I have the full copy of The New York Times newspaper from Saturday April 15, 1865, with the headline “Awful Event, President Lincoln Shot by an Assassin,� as well as a newspaper of Kennedy’s assassination. I also have old Playboy magazines from the 1950s-’70s. Old newspapers covering major events, like the assassinations of Lincoln and Kennedy, the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the kidnapping of the Lindbergh baby, the sinking of the Titanic, the San Francisco earthquake and other major catastrophes, sell for the highest prices. The front page of the April 15, 1865, New York Times sold at auction for $450 last year. A copy of the same issue, with eight pages, sold for

(NAPSI)—Cooking like a professional doesn’t have to mean a kitchen full of expensive gadgets, but you do want one where prepping, cooking and cleaning is seamless and comfortable. That requires considering design details that enhance the workflow. Consider these helpful hints:
401-441-5872 RI Reg. #38780
Smart Storage Items that are used frequently should be kept together and conveniently at hand. Use hooks, magnets and utensil holders to keep favorite knives, pot lids, spatulas and the like within easy reach. A lazy Susan can help spices stay properly sorted.
Everything—Especially The Kitchen Sink While shiny appliances, countertops and beautiful backsplashes may get all the attention, the sink and its surrounding area are the most used in the kitchen and deserve special consideration. Position the sink with as much prep space around it as possible. For the sink itself, look for efficiency and functionality. For example, the new BLANCO IKON Apron 33” 1 3/4 sink is designed with a convenient low divide that makes it easier to handle large pots and baking sheets. Another advantage of its apron front design is that it’s installed further forward with no countertop. This means less strain on cooks and dishwashers because they don’t have to lean over as much. What’s more, it’s made with nonporous, easy-to-clean Silgranit composite

Bright Ideas For Lighting Choose lighting that maximizes cooking efficiency and comfort. Task lighting should include overhead stove lights and under-cabinet fixtures so cooking and food prep area are properly lit. For dining, overhead chandeliers may be best.

Q
Fleas Spark Cat Spat DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I visited my friend’s house with my cat back in March. Now, my friend says my cat, “Chuckles,” gave her cat fleas. She wants me to pay for flea treatment. I say my cat doesn’t have fleas and I don’t owe her a thing. What do you say? — Sierra in Modesto, California DEAR SIERRA: This is one of those spats that sometimes end up being resolved on a TV court show. While entertaining for the audience, it can be heartbreaking for both parties and can end the friendship. There is, of course, no proof that will convince your friend that Chuckles didn’t have fleas back in March. She may not even accept the fact that it’s possible to pick up fleas or flea eggs while walking outdoors and bring them into the house, where they can hatch and then hop on board a pet’s fur. And now that flea and tick season is in full swing, what may have started out as a few fleas is now a full-blown infestation. I’m not a relationship therapist, but if you value the friendship, offer to compromise somehow. You might pay for half the cost of the flea treatment — topical treatments can be pricey. You could purchase flea prevention products and offer to help apply them in and around her home — with the promise that you’ll apply them to your home, too, as a preventative measure. In the meantime, doublecheck that Chuckles is flea-free. Comb through his hair and look for dark speckles or visible fleas near his skin. If there are certain spots that he scratches frequently, pay special attention. Even the most diligent cat mamas may deal with fleas at the height of the season.
