Department of Homeland Security Extends REAL ID Enforcement Grace Period Applies to Residents’ Access to Federal Facilities Through January 22, 2018 (Harrisburg, PA) – The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced a REAL ID enforcement grace period through January 22, 2018, which means that Pennsylvania residents will not face access issues when entering federal facilities through at least that date. This grace period goes into effect on Wednesday, October 11, and applies to jurisdictions currently under compliance extensions set to expire today, October 10. In addition to Pennsylvania, there are 29 total jurisdictions with October 10 extension expirations. PennDOT submitted an extension request to DHS in early September and

is currently awaiting DHS response. The enforcement grace period applies only to entrance to federal facilities. There is no enforcement on commercial air travel until January 22, 2018. PennDOT has begun work on the implementation of REAL ID, and estimates REAL ID-compliant driver licenses and identification cards will be available at the customer’s option in March 2019. This will allow ample time for customers who want a REAL ID product to get one before the final DHS effective date of October 1, 2020. Information on REAL ID in Pennsylvania, including frequently asked questions, is available at www.dmv. pa.gov

5 ¢ENTS WORTH

by Grant Nichols

All Bradford Journal Photos in this edition and its associated gallery (over 100), were taken throughout the day during the Anthony Chirillo Benefit, October 14th, at Bradford VFW Post #212, Vet’s Event Center. While Anthony was still in a Pittsburgh hospital at the time of the benefit, the center was swamped with entertainers and well-wishers for his complete recovery. We should mention that the organization and operation of this event was made possible by one of Bradford’s unseen but well appreciated informal groups of women known as “The Hens,” who come into action whenever they feel it’s necessary to lend a helping hand. Included (among others) in this organization are Sandi Rimer, Dana Haven, Chrystal Hushon, Staci Pomroy, Katelynn Clarke, Nora Bottorf, Tracy Colosimo, Alicia Stockton, Cindy Olin, and Donita Troutman……..We have received the final announcement pertaining to the All4ONE singing group (20 singers with representatives from 17 local churches) who will perform in the Fall Musical entitled “Horizon,” by Michael Neale, Jonathan Walker & Carson Wagner. According to Jeanne Gross, the Director, there will be two performances, the first to come on Sunday, October 29th at 6PM at the Faith Baptist Church, 498 Seaward Avenue, Bradford, and the second to come on Sunday, November 5th at 6PM, at the Foursquare Gospel Church, 50 Sullivan Road……..We think we may have discovered the reason that so much junk, trash and garbage is found in the woods around McKean County instead of being properly dumped in the Casella owned McKean Landfill on Hutchins Road in Mount Jewett, PA. First, their hours which are Mon-Fri 8:00 AM-3:30 PM with no deliveries on Saturday and Sunday, make it difficult for the individual working homeowner to deliver a pick-up truck full of waste without taking time off from work. Secondly outside of ordering regular home trash and garbage pick-up from the Casella company itself, it takes about a month (in our experience) of calling various numbers associated with the company at different locations to find and communicate with a qualified person who can help with other dumping requirements (and even then, only by email, not in person). While, as an independent business, the Casella organization has the right to run its operation any way it sees fit (which we believe from what we’ve seen is to drive individual homeowners to dump only using Casella’s pick-up service, or another third-party pick-up service), we think that their approach causes a good deal of collateral environmental degradation in McKean County…..Our Halloween Special, that begins this week, can be found on pages 10 and 11 of this issue. Enjoy!

It’s A Matter Of Opinion... Guest Columnist “Forcing Congress To Act” -by Bob Perry

Being opposed by the establishment and those perpetuating the ‘swamp’, President Donald J Trump is making some moves that will ‘force Congress’ to live up to their ‘fiduciary duties’ they were elected to perform. At every turn Trump is being hampered in attempting to fulfill his Administration’s ambitious agenda. The ‘swamp’ Republicans in the House made sure the Affordable Care Act (ACA) would not be repealed clearly to oppose him giving the resistant obstructionist Democrats a victory as they found unlikely support in the ‘swamp’ waters. One single vote from Arizona Senator John McCain who promised repeal and replace reduced the yes votes to 49 and stopped the ACA repeal in its tracks, giving the appearance McCain has put himself back into a prison. He should not plan to run for the Senate again as he would likely suffer an embarrassing loss. In response to the repeated failure to repeal the ACA Trump has enacted an executive order designed to increase competition and choice and it provides coverage options that allows selecting coverage needed as opposed to the ‘one size fits all’ required by the ACA. In one of the many unconstitutional acts taken by former President Barack Hussein Obama affecting the ACA, he unilaterally placed a 90 day limit (instead of 1 year) on short-term plans for people who were ineligible for an ACA subsidy and were signing up for the low cost plans. This limit resulted in forcing people into signing up for ACA. This move by Trump will result in reducing the number of uninsured as people can select relevant coverage that costs about half of ACA’s cheapest bronze plan. Some 18 million plus now will have an affordable option which includes some 8 million who were subject to the ‘tax penalty’. This new regulation allows some individuals and small employers to group together across state lines competing for lower rates like many national corporations do. Competition is clearly necessary to provide more coverage at lower costs. Accompanying this is the announcement of eliminating the unconstitutional practice of funneling billions of dollars to insurance companies without required appropriations from Congress. The funds have been propping up insurance providers as they funds helped lower costs for co-payments, deductibles as well as coinsur-

ance for low income people. Numerous States Attorneys General are filing law suits in attempt to prevent the subsidy elimination but will likely fail if and when the Supreme Court becomes involved. Trump, by making moves Congress has failed to make, is putting on display his desire and commitment to work in the best interest of the people in this country and making fools of elected representation in Congress. He believes in law and order and attempts he has been making to reestablish enforcement of existing law is not being received well. Some House members are scrambling to create legislation to extend the subsidies and this activity is how the subsidies are required to be appropriated by Congress. On another front Trump is challenging Congress to ‘do their job’ as he has threatened to withdraw from the seven-nation accord if specified new caveats he created are not approved by Congress to amend and strengthen the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPoA). Congress was given a 60 day opportunity to ‘do their job’. Will former President Obama ever be held responsible by his many unconstitutional acts committed while serving? We witnessed Congress proving it is a ‘swamp’ by protecting itself in not impeaching Obama as well as other presidents when justly deserved.

ON THE HEALTHY SIDE Feeling Ill? The AICR HealthTalk -by Karen Collins, MS, RD, CDN Computer Will See American Institute for Cancer Research Q: Does the serving size listed on a food label signify the amount that is You Now healthy for me to eat?

(NAPSI)—The next time you don’t feel well, where will you turn? If you’re like many Americans, it will be to your computer. According to a recent survey conducted by Morning Consult on behalf of University of Phoenix*, nearly two-thirds (59 percent) of American adults use online health resources, such as WebMD, as a substitute for primary health care. On the other hand, the survey also showed that far fewer adults are taking advantage of other health care innovations, such as eprescription filling services (39 percent), online access to health records (37 percent), text message appointment reminders (35 percent) and online appointment booking services (27 percent). Additionally, nearly half of respondents (48 percent) said the rising cost of insurance would be the biggest challenge facing the health care industry in the next five years, with three-quarters of respondents indicating that prescription drug coverage (77 percent) and monthly premium costs (77 percent) were very important when selecting health care coverage. Expert Opinion “The health care industry is shifting to a patient-centered model that harnesses technology to both open communication channels and create a platform for patient engagement,” said Doris Savron, executive dean for the College of Health Professions at University of Phoenix. “Given this shift, it is crucial that patients not only have access to these technologies, but also view them as important resources for improving their health and overall care experience.” What Patients Want When Americans utilize traditional care settings, they have strong feelings about the qualities that health care professionals should have. According to the survey, the majority of Americans find it “very important” for their treatment teams to have interpersonal skills, including listening (84 percent), verbal communication (83 percent) and bedside care (71 percent). These skills, Savron notes, are key to health care professionals building trust with their patients and enabling them to take ownership of their care. “The data shows that technology is just one piece of the puzzle when it comes to patient care,” added Dean Savron. “Although new technologies are resources that we should lean on to help improve communication, interpersonal skills are the foundation for ensuring patient trust and better care. Communication and em-

A: No, not always. The serving size on the label provides a reference amount for interpreting the other information on the label’s Nutrition Facts panel. It’s the first item you should look at to see what that food is contributing to your overall eating. Measure the amount you usually eat and compare to what is on the label. For example, if the serving size for ice cream lists a half-cup, but you eat one cup, if the label says 140 calories, you are getting double that: 280 calories. On the other hand, if you have one slice of whole-wheat bread and the label lists a serving as two slices, or a half-cup of frozen broccoli instead of the one cup that is a standard label serving, then you are getting half as many of the listed calories, as well as fiber and vitamins. You can also use the serving size to compare nutritional differences between similar foods. For example, if you’re looking for a cereal high in fiber, when you can compare the cereal’s labels to see which one has more, make sure you are comparing similar amounts. How much you should eat for a healthy portion depends upon your nutrient needs based on your age, gender, physical activity, overall calorie needs and more. Even for two people with similar overall needs, a portion size that works well for one person may differ from the best portion for someone else if they differ in the other food choices and amounts they select. pathy are vital skills for health professionals seeking to encourage patient responsibility in their care and drive positive outcomes for them.” Where To Learn More University of Phoenix College of Health Professions offers leading-edge graduate, undergraduate, certificate and nondegree programs aimed at preparing students to improve the quality of health care in their communities and the industry. It helps ensure that today’s graduates can effectively tackle tomorrow’s health care

challenges. To learn more about programs offered through the College of Health Professions, visit www.phoenix.edu/chp *A national sample of 2,201 registered U.S. voters completed the online survey, conducted by Morning Consult on behalf of University of Phoenix from August 10−14, 2017. Results from the full survey have a margin of error of +/- two percentage points. For complete survey methodology, please contact Amanda Barchilon at Amanda.Barchilon@phoenix.edu

Halloween Safety Tips:

With many communities holding trick-or-treat nights, PennDOT is urging motorists to slow down and watch carefully for little princesses, witches and pirates. Children are unpredictable – and even more so when they’re excited -- which means motorists need to slow down and expect the unexpected. We’re also asking parents to help by reviewing safety tips with their children and helping them to choose safe costumes. Motorists should be extremely cautious on neighborhood streets as children may dart out between parked vehicles or walk on the side of the road. In addition to motorists, parents and guardians can help increase safety and visibility of children by following a few simple tips: •Buy or make brightly-colored, highly-visible costumes that do not interfere with a child’s ability to see, hear or walk;

•Consider adding strips of reflective tape to darker-colored costumes or trick-or-treat bags; •Encourage children to carry a flashlight or glow stick; •Accompany young children while they are trick-or-treating; •Remind children to pay attention to their surroundings and to look both ways before crossing a street; and •Tell children to walk instead of run and to stay on sidewalks whenever possible.

BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCES How To Tackle Your Grocery Bill by - Nathaniel Sillin

Food shopping can quickly take over your budget despite your best intentions. Perhaps it’s due to impulse purchases, unplanned shopping trips, food going bad or a combination of all three. If you’re looking for ways to save money while enjoying nutritious and delicious meals, consider these money-saving tactics. Stick to your budget to save time and money. Look at your food budget before making a trip to the store. If you don’t have one yet, figure out your overall budget including food costs with a simple budget worksheet. Knowing how much you want to spend and actually spent can help you make informed decisions. Plan out the week’s meals with your budget in mind. If you make dishes that rely on the same staples, you can save money by using leftovers to create a new dish. But mix things up to avoid boredom. Make your trip to the grocery store even easier with a shopping list. Sticking to a list can help limit food waste and make it easy to get in and out of the grocery store. If you share food shopping duties with a spouse or partner, you can avoid double purchases by using grocery apps that let you create and sync shopping lists. Stack different discounts and deals to rack up savings. Once you enter the grocery store, it’s time to put your plan into action. Plan for the occasional indulgence and let yourself make impulse purchases occasionally, but try to stick to the list. You can also often save money at grocery stores by joining the store’s loyalty program. Members get exclusive discounts, and some programs offer additional savings at partner stores. Check your membership account online or with the app before checking out, as some programs have electronic coupons that you need to “clip” to get the savings. One way to increase your grocery budget is to use one, or several, of the apps that give you cash back when you buy groceries. Sometimes you can even earn cash back on general purchases like a loaf of bread or a gallon of milk. Depending on the app and food, you may need to verify the purchase by scanning the barcode and sending a picture of your receipt. The store you choose can also significantly impact how much you’ll spend. Strategically plan your shopping route. Planning your grocery shopping after reviewing your local stores’ weekly sales and coupons can help you de-

termine what to buy where. Also take the time to explore your neighborhood stores, as one grocer may frequently have high-quality yet inexpensive produce while another might have a great butcher. No matter where you shop, be mindful of how the store’s design can entice you to make purchases. The outside ring is often where you’ll find the fewest processed foods, however you might notice that you need to walk to the back of the store to grab milk or eggs. The store hopes you’ll be tempted by something you see along the way. Sticking to your list, refraining from walking through an aisle unless you need to and remembering that the eyelevel products aren’t necessarily the best bang for your buck can help you avoid these traps.

Stick to inexpensive foods. Consider

choosing store-brand rather than namebrand products as they’re often cheaper, but not necessarily lower quality. You may also want to consider changing what you buy. Filet mignon can be delicious, but so can cheaper cuts of meat and there’s a lot of advice online for how to best prepare them. Staples, such as rice, beans and canned or frozen goods are also a low-cost way to supplement meals. Bottom line. Buying food is a necessity, but you don’t have to overspend to keep a well-stocked fridge and pantry. By planning your meals and grocery trips, using the money-saving tactics above and carefully choosing where you shop, you can save time and money – and cook up something delicious.

FAMILY FEATURES

athering the family around the table with delicious, traditional meals is the ultimate combination for many home chefs like Catherine Lowe, winner of the 17th season of ABC’s “The Bachelor.” Lowe, who partnered as a celebrity spokesperson with Bertolli to create this Roasted Garlic Marinara Braised Chicken with Linguine recipe, enjoys adding authenticity to the table with recipes that provide homemade taste and layers of flavor. “I pride myself on my strong Italian roots,” Lowe said. “My dad taught me how to cook at a young age, and growing up, it was an event to make and enjoy dinner with his side of the family. It’s important for me to remember and celebrate that heritage.” Full of hearty vegetables you can see and taste, and inspired by the simple goodness of Tuscan cooking, Bertolli Rustic Cut Pasta sauces help bring homemade flavor to your table. Offered in four varieties – Marinara with Traditional Vegetables, Spicy Marinara with Traditional Vegetables, Roasted Garlic Marinara with Garden Vegetables and Sweet Peppers with Portobello Mushrooms – it’s Lowe’s secret ingredient to helping make family meals more enjoyable.

Five Helpful Tips For Staying Fit And Fantastic After Age 50

(NAPSI)—About one in every three Americans is age 50 or older. If you or someone you care about is among them— or hopes to be someday—it may be wise to heed these five hints on keeping healthy, active and pain-free as you age. They come from Dr. Bob Arnot, an awardwinning author of 12 books on nutrition and health, and former chief medical correspondent for CBS and NBC. Healthy Aging Ideas 1. Give good health a shot. Get your flu, shingles and pneumonia immunizations. Follow your doctor’s advice about regular cancer screening tests, stress tests and bone density measurements. Head off some of the problems of aging before they occur. 2. Stay mentally alert. Read the newspaper every day. Do the crossword puzzle. Play bridge or chess. Take—or teach—a class. Keeping your mind engaged could ward off the brain changes that lead to Alzheimer’s and other forms of demen-

tia. Stay socially active, too. If friends and family are far away, see if you can communicate electronically with computer programs such as Skype. 3. Don’t smoke. You’re never too old to quit. 4. Eat right. In addition to lots of fruits, vegetables and a few lean meats, older people should consume foods with vitamin B12, such as fortified cereals. Also, add flavor to foods with spices and herbs instead of salt and look for low-sodium packaged foods. Drink three cups of fatfree or low-fat milk throughout the day or the equivalent in yogurt, cheese or other dairy products. 5. Be physically active. Regular activity can help delay, prevent or manage many costly chronic diseases faced by adults 50 years old or older. Try for at least 2½ hours of moderate-intensity physical activity a week. Do it in increments of 10 minutes or more. Bike, dance, walk for cardiovascular health. To help preserve your balance,

add strength-building activities such as lifting small weights at least twice a week. Check with your doctor about the regimen that’s best for you. If you develop body pain, turn to topical pain relievers with lidocaine instead of over-the-counter pills. According to the Center for Medicare Advocacy, “[Lidocaine] is a highly effective pain reliever and its unique nonnarcotic and nonaddictive properties make it a benign alternative to opioids, without the risks and devastating side effects of opioids.” For example, Salonpas Lidocaine Plus from the world’s No. 1 (OTC Topical Analgesics Patch) brand contains two powerful anesthetics: 4 percent lidocaine, the maximum strength available without a prescription, and 10 percent benzyl alcohol. The benzyl alcohol is fast acting while the lidocaine is long lasting. Together, they desensitize aggravated nerves for temporary relief of back, neck, shoulder, knee or elbow pain. Unscented for discreet relief, nonirritating and nongreasy, Salonpas Lidocaine Plus is available in two convenient forms: cream and roll-on.

Mummy

FAMILY FEATURES

pooky, silly or symbolic, carved pumpkins are an essential ingredient to any Halloween celebration. This year, scare up some special fun for your party with a wicked watermelon carving, instead – but don’t stop there. After crafting your watermelon into an artful mummy, take advantage of the healthy, immune-system supporting qualities of the lycopene leader among fresh produce. At 92 percent water, as well as an excellent source of vitamins A and C, watermelon is a hydrating post-art snack. Carving a creative design into a watermelon is a simple way to kick off the festivities and requires only a handful of common tools. Add a twinkling candle to make a fantastically frightful centerpiece. Or fill it with a fresh fruit salad or salsas for a more functional, practical approach. Even if you’re planning on a hollowedout carving, keep the sweet juicy fruit and make it a healthy addition to your Halloween party menu with a recipe that puts to use all your carving leftovers. To take advantage of all a watermelon has to offer – outside of the fun carving – try Frosted, Frozen Watermelon Balls or Kids Watermelon Pizza Supreme. These fun, simple recipes make it easy to incorporate a healthy snack after all your hard work carving up a Halloween masterpiece. Find more recipes, carving patterns and inspiration at watermelon.org.

Prior to carving, read through all of the directions. Cuts are easiest when the watermelon is at room temperature. Once your handiwork is complete, chill the carving and contents before serving. After drawing your design on the rind, insert toothpicks in key places to guide your cuts. A sharp knife with a pointed tip makes the easiest, cleanest cuts. Remove excess flesh in large pieces, when possible, to allow for easier melon ball or cube creation. Use round toothpicks or skewers to attach pieces to your design as flat toothpicks are not strong enough to bear the weight or stand up to the thickness of the rind.

Supplies and Tools: Oval or round seedless watermelon Cutting board Kitchen knife Small bowl Dry erase marker Paring knife Melon baller, fluted or regular Scoop Assorted peelers Cheesecloth Straight pin Battery-operated candle or light Candy eyeballs or blueberries

Wash watermelon under cool running water and pat dry. On cutting board, place watermelon on its side and use kitchen knife to cut off 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch from bottom (end opposite stem), being careful not to cut too deep into white part of rind. Cut 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch from stem end to create opening large enough to fit small bowl. Using dry erase marker, draw eyes, nose and mouth, along with wavy slits around carving to let more light flow through. Use paring knife to cut out design, being sure to cut through to red fruit.

Use fluted or regular melon baller to hollow out inside of watermelon. Use scoop to remove excess watermelon. Peel green rind off outside of watermelon. (Tip: Different peelers work well for different parts of the watermelon, depending on how flat or round the melon is.) Wrap thin strips of cheesecloth around mummy carving and secure with straight pin, if needed. Put battery-operated candle or light into carving. Fit small bowl into top of carving and trim away excess rind to make bowl fit securely. Fill bowl with melon balls and attach candy or blueberries to make eyes.

Kids Watermelon Pizza Supreme

Servings: 6 1 watermelon slice (8-10 inches around and 1-inch thick), drained 1 cup strawberry preserves 1/2 cup white chocolate chips 1/2 cup raisins 1/2 cup chopped walnuts 1 cup sweetened shredded coconuts Place watermelon slice on serving platter and cut into 6 wedges, leaving in shape of pizza. Spread preserves over watermelon and sprinkle chocolate chips, raisins, walnuts and coconut.

Frosted, Frozen Watermelon Balls

Choosing a Watermelon

With a thick rind covering the fruit inside, you may wonder how to choose the best watermelon at the market. Here are some tips for picking the perfect one: n Look it over. Look for a round, oval or oblong shaped watermelon that is free from bruises, cuts or dents. n Lift it up. The watermelon should be heavy for its size. On average, a 5-pound watermelon yields 15 cups of edible fruit. n Turn it over. The underside of the watermelon should have a creamy yellow spot from where it sat on the ground and ripened in the sun.

Servings: 35-40 1 small watermelon 1 package (3 ounces) watermelon or other red flavor gelatin dessert Using melon baller, scoop out 35-40 small watermelon balls. Place on paper towels and set aside. Pour gelatin into shallow bowl. One-by-one, gently drop watermelon balls into bowl, roll around, take out and place on plate covered with paper towel. Repeat until all gelatin is used. Place plate of frosted watermelon balls in freezer. Allow at least 2 hours to make sure they are completely frozen. Remove from freezer and let sit a few minutes before eating. Note: To serve with toothpicks, place toothpicks in before freezing to aid in serving.
