About Presidents... he other day I was asked who I planned to vote for in the coming election. We changed the conversation to something more palatable for one thing friends know is not to discuss politics or religion which could turn into a most heated discussion. I did comment that when I was born, Roosevelt was president. I had to quickly add that I meant Franklin, not Teddy. I was never old enough to vote during his tenure but I remember what people said about him; references to his words of encouragement, “the only thing to fear is fear itself;” his becoming president in 1932, during one of the saddest periods of American history. As kids, we heard about his fireside chats on the radio; his work that enabled so many unemployed to gain employment. Most conversations about that period of time just referred to the Great Depression. Roosevelt was responsible for the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority), exploring and rectifying important issues like energy and economic development. One of the first things he did was: “He proposed, and Congress enacted, a sweeping program to bring recovery to business and agriculture, relief to the unemployed, and to those in danger of losing farms and homes, and reform, especially through the establishment of the Tennessee Valley Authority.” In 1935, Roosevelt came up with a new program of reform: “Social Security, heav-

My dad didn’t go to war for he had four children to take care of. He did, however, work as an air raid warden when needed and officially worked second shift in what he referred to as the “shell loading plant.” Just before he left for work each day, he sat at the table with his guitar and played some old favorites of that time. I have appreciated many things, the veterans who fought for our freedom, the lives we have been able to live and that monthly social security check that we were able to put toward retirement. Many of us were led to interesting and fulfilling lifestyles and now, I have to say that if we had a Franklin Roosevelt running for president, he would have my vote. For now… don’t ask how I will vote for I haven’t a clue.

Celebrating 25 Years Of REAL Healthy by Mitch Booth his article is dedicated to the 25 year journey of Love Whole Foods: Markets And Cafés. With family ties to Ormond going back over sixty years, my family established the first whole food store in Florida in 1991. While preparing for the week long celebration we are planning, (February 8th to February 14th—go to LoveWhole Food.com for details) I came across an original information sheet we have been giving to our customers since the day we opened. The sheet lists our product standards, what we would sell, and what we would not. We introduced a basic concept for the well-being of our community: Let your food be your medicine. We were the first to offer beautiful fresh organic produce along with whole food supplements. We introduced hypoallergenic food products like gluten free bread, we introduced homeopathic formulas for children and adults as well as for our pets. Long before Suzanne Somers got cancer, we provided the research by Dr. John R. Lee, M.D. on the risks of synthetic hormones and the advantages of bio-identical hormones. He actually spent an afternoon at our original Trails location. More importantly, we provided the women of or community with the tools needed to make informed decisions on serious health issues. That tradition lives on with our most recent programs on January 9th. Dr. Susan Kolb, M.D. gave a presentation entitled: The Naked Truth about Breast Implants. Sixty-five local women attended as well as several local medical doctors. On January 21st a local pharmacist did a presentation on a product for neurolytic brain balance. The audience included mothers with children suffering from spectrum disorders, those wanting help with alcohol withdrawal, and those just suffering from stress. What these folks were seeking are medical solutions without using pharmaceutical drugs. If drugs were necessary, then how to minimize the known side effects. This last two events epitomized the twenty-five years of presentations we have provided free to the community. Like my original standard sheet, these programs meet a consistent level of scientific integrity. They are not infomercials. My mantra on my radio show was: science driven, performance delivered! The pharmacist who developed Neural Balance has been awarded a FDA nutraceutical patent. He did a power point presentation which A. Showed the clinical effectiveness of the herbal/supplement formula B. Listed all of the certification of ingredients AND their source. Not talk, but actual certification printed on the label. It even included which rabbinate issued its kosher certification. C. A money back guarantee is offered as long as the consumer gives the products an adequate chance to work. No questions asked. This is called scientific validity along

T

with integrity. If the reader turns to my last article (listed under Mitch’s Love Notes on our website): The Good, The Bad, and The Sad (November 20, 2015); perhaps Dr. Brent Schlapper would still be practicing medicine in DeLand if the drugs he took had met these same standards. This last summer my wife and I were given the opportunity to meet the founder of Natural Factors, Mr. Roland Gahler at his headquarters in Vancouver, Canada. For fifty years this company has set the standards for the nutraceutical industry. When he created their new Whole Earth And Sea supplement line, he not only purchased the land on which the food used in the product was grown, but he innovated the logistics of farm to final formulation to a matter of hours. What makes the product line outstanding along with their whole product catalogue, is the science behind the formulation and the standards used to certify label integrity. In Canada, this is even stricter than in the U.S. When Roland insisted that the produce used was GMO free (read April 24, 2015: Calling Dr. Oz) he didn’t trust outside labs—so he purchased the latest equipment and started his own GMO testing facility now called ISURA. This whole food based certification is now listed on each product—which he pays for. He sold the lab to be free of any hint of impropriety or manipulation. Now let’s discuss another Natural Factor innovation. Roland has always wanted to give extra value to any product his family represents: In the case of their proprietary silica product, BioSil, they wanted more than wrinkle cure. Enter Dr. Richard Passwater, Jr. One of the world’s foremost authorities on the bio available matrix of chOSA silica. His work in Belgium for Bio Minerals inspired Roland to secure exclusive North American rights to this revolutionary nutraceutical. This product doesn’t just build the collagen matrix of our body’s largest organ—our skin—it stimulates keratin and elastin production for stronger nails and hair. Every box of BioSil includes a copy of research used to validate label claims. Folks, this is why Love Whole Foods is proud to partner with Natural Factors and other companies that support our core values. To celebrate our 25th anniversary, we have been given the opportunity to host Dr. Passwater for one night, February 10th at the Ormond Store. He will be arriving from Belgium to share the newest research on bone elasticity and silica’s role to fight cancer, especially of the skin and bone. So write down Wednesday, February 10th to meet Dr. Passwater. Be sure to check out all the events happening from February 8th until Valentine’s Day. Please join us in a celebration of the standards and values which have given our customers a quarter century of healthy. Mitch Booth is the owner of Loves Whole Foods in Ormond Beach and Port Orange —the area’s largest organic and gluten free food stores.

One Simple Change

Antiques Ruby Glass Q: I have a 50-piece set of ruby glass. Several years ago, I was offered $75 per glass, but I want to sell the entire set. Any suggestions? —Marilyn, Sonoma, California A: Ruby glass is a flashed glass, deeply red in color, and was manufactured by numerous companies beginning during the 1890s and continuing through the 1940s. Although it is sometimes confused with red carnival glass, it is made differently and is not the same. Values are tricky. It might be a good idea to consult the numerous price guides available and monitor ruby glass prices on eBay. Another suggestion is to contact a certified appraiser who specializes in glass. Although you will pay a nominal fee, you will get an expert's opinion of what your collection is worth. *** Q: Can you recommend a good price guide for comics. My son has a collection of about 75 vintage issues, and I think we should investigate to see what the current values are. —Susan, Springfield, Missouri A: There are three comic references I consult on a regular basis: Golden Age Comics by Alex G. Malloy and Stuart W. Wells III (Krause Books); Official Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide by Robert

W. Overstreet (House of Collectibles); and Comic Book Checklist And Price Guide by Maggie Thompson, Brent Frankenhoff and Peter Bickford (Krause Books). Since prices can vary from region to region, don't assume values listed are chiseled in stone. Also, don't hesitate to contact established comicbook dealers in your area. *** Q: I recently purchased four pieces of McCoy pottery at a yard sale. In addition to a large mixing bowl, I bought a pitcher with matching mug and a cookie jar shaped like a strawberry. I spent a total of $35 for the four pieces and hope it was a good deal. —Becky, Little Rock, Arkansas A: Although I have several guidebooks for this type of pottery, my personal favorite is Warman's McCoy Pottery, 2nd edition, by Mark F. Moran and published by KP Books. Your strawberry cookie jar was crafted during the 1950s and is valued in the $80 to $100 range, per Moran. It sounds like you made an excellent buy.

f you have been a fan of National Public Radio, or National Public Broadcasting, or the National Endowment for the Arts, I respectfully suggest that you re-think you position. First understand that I am a big fan of the arts. I am a daily listener to NPR. I attend art shows and visit museums. I attend symphony concerts and dance programs. I spent 40+ years on both sides of the TV cameras as talent, director, producer, and builder (three from the ground up), and administrator. I think I know good broadcasting when I hear/see it. I started in TV with no network, no Teleprompters, video tape, color, digital hi-definition. I've done 1000's of commercials and hundreds if not thousands of shows. I know and love good broadcasting. Quality is not the issue here, freedom is! NPR, NEA, and similar agencies are socialization of the arts, pure and simple. I'm familiar with broadcasting under socialism, having spent time in Eastern Europe and Russia... before the revolution. I have produced TV programs from behind the iron curtain and have seen many others from socialist nations. Socialism destroys quality in almost everything it touches including broadcasting, art, medicine, property, professions, sports, etc. The best way to kill anything is to socialize it. Freedom is the reverse. The competition inherent in freedom brings out the best in all these things. This does not mean there is not some good public broadcasting or good subsidized art. NPR's Morning Edition, or All Things Considered are high quality. The point is however that because of their high quality, they are perfectly capable of standing on their own. Those of us who listen ought to support them, not through government coercion, (taxation), but through patronizing sponsorships. If they cannot garner support via that path... they'll die... to which I'd respond... let'em die. There is simply no good reason, political or otherwise, why people who do not want some from of entertainment or information should be forced to have it, let alone pay for it. If on the other hand there are those that do want it... let them support it. If they cannot garner support... evidently the masses do not deem it worth the cost. I love classical music. I have been a principal player in several symphony orchestras. I have been president of a civic symphony, and an assistant conductor of a symphony. I listen daily to classical music, as well as other forms of good music. I sure don't want to see classic musical music leave the scene. Neither do I want it killed by government subsidy. Its best chance at survival is freedom to stand on its merits. Involve government and closed shop labor laws and

Happy Talk …by George & Peggy Goldtrap coerced endowments and you can kiss art good-by. Consider arts suffrage under Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Fidel, and others from history. Those, like me, who love symphonic music can have all they want, IF, they are willing to pay their own way. Forcing (taxation) citizens, not a fan of a particular form of entertainment or information, to pay for it is wrong. It is not really much different from steeling. Take money from some and spend it to suit the pleasure of the takers. In art, music, medicine, transportation, property... it's wrong. Why should a Grand Old Opry fan be forced to support a symphony? Why should a Beethoven fan be force to support a Merle Haggard show? No reason. Why should religious people be forced to pay for art they perceive to be sacrilegious. Why should nonreligious people be forced to buy religious icons? Why indeed. The line between life and the arts is fine at best. The arts are very subjective and relative. They are free for the taking or doing and do best when left that way. The south has a saying... 'every tub sits on its on bottom!' Art is no exception. I favor saving all the arts... classic, country, painting. dance, etc. I also favor the elimination of public broadcasting, (really not public at all since only a minority support it), and NEA, requiring the remaining quality broadcast, or artworks, and there are some, to fend for themselves. I hope they will survive. (I like Garrison Keeler.) If they die, I can live without them. My freedom to choose is far more precious. Lastly, look at what's happening in 'so called' public broadcasting. They were chartered, commercial free. To claim they remain commercial free would be totally dishonest. They are now in fact broadcasting advertising. It appears a bit different, sly, not as forthright, but it's there. It's dishonest and it is competitive with investors trying to make it on their own.... so they'll have enough profit to pay taxes and support their 'public' competition. Wrong, wrong, wrong. About as un-American as it gets. PBS and the NEA are like social security. It's there and I'll use what I've been forced to pay for, but if I'm given the choice that my forefathers intended, I reject it. I’d choose freedom! Art… good art, will survive without subsidizing, from a government already broke.

Keeping Your Joints Healthy NAPSA nowing a few facts about the wear and care of your joints can help you take steps to keep them healthy. Healthy joints have cartilage, which acts as a spongy shock absorber on the ends of the bones so they don’t rub against each other. When you don’t have enough cartilage, you can have pain. To Keep Your Joints Healthy • Exercise. Walking, jogging, or swimming helps keep muscles strong, and takes the strain off the joints. • A healthy diet and a healthy weight. Carrying extra weight stresses your joints. Eat less fat and sugar, and more fruits and vegetables. • A healthy lifestyle. Get enough sleep and eat a balanced diet. What To Know About Joint Pain Joint pain often indicates arthritis. Common types are osteoarthritis, gout, and rheumatoid arthritis. Other diseases or injuries can also lead to joint pain. As you age, joint pain becomes more common as well. Fortunately, you can do a lot to feel better and stay active, even if you have any of these problems. How To Feel Better • Exercise, moving all your joints. Walking helps circulation, supports the joints, and strengthens the muscles. • If you have a sore joint, you can use an ice pack or a bag of frozen vegetables on the sore spot.

K

Exercise helps keep muscles strong to take the strain off the joints. • Do your best to maintain a weight that is right for you, since too much weight can make your knees and hips ache. • Speak up. Tell the doctor if your pain is improving or getting worse. Medicines can reduce pain and stiffness, and a doctor will know if joint replacement is an option you should consider. Joint Replacement Surgery Joint replacement surgery involves removing a damaged joint and putting in a new one. It’s usually done by an orthopaedic surgeon. Sometimes, the surgeon will not remove the whole joint, but will only replace or fix the damaged parts. The new joint, called a prosthesis, can be made of plastic, metal, or ceramic. It may or may not be cemented into place, and your bone will grow into it. New joints generally last at least 10 to 15 years.

Books ElderCare Simplified

W

ith over 12,500 American’s turning fifty every day, it’s no surprise that by 2017 those aged fifty and older will represent fifty-five percent of the population. With facts like that, there has never been a greater time to learn about the decisions that need to be made as Americans age. A simple and easyto-use guide filled with resources and checklists, this invaluable new manual provides readers with all the essential information needed for seniors to navigate the processes and decisions that come with aging. The guide also serves as a fundamental organizational tool that communicates all personal information and relevant wishes in a clear, concise, and simplified format. Written by local authors, Susan H. Little and Rose K. Traub ElderCare Simplified: A Comprehensive Manual To Guide You Through The Stages Of Aging is targeted toward seniors, veterans, the disabled, and their caregivers. Filled with important information about the aging process. The book leads you every step of the way in an easy-to-understand and highly comprehensive, yet compassionate manner. ElderCare

Simplified is a must read for anyone dealing with elderly or disabled loved ones. With a friendship spanning over thirty years, Traub and Little had each become the primary caregivers for their own parents and in-laws, and both learned that caregiving alone is a full-time job. With both of them possessing careers, children, and husbands, time and time again they relied on each other for emotional support as well as valuable information. Necessity drove them to learn the ins and outs of elder services, medical services, and hospice services. As they learned more, they began to see the need to share this knowledge with others in an effort to help people gain the direction they need in order to plan for the future. Traub has held various corporate managerial and sales positions in the geriatric health care field. Little has a master’s in educational leadership and retired after thirty-four years in public education as a teacher and assistant principal then went on to become a senior care advisor and advocate. The guide can be purchased at the Eldercare Simplified Senior Resource Center or on-line from Amazon.com

Lottery Scams ew things make me angrier than when a thief takes advantage of the trusting nature of our senior citizens. Unfortunately it recently happened once again right here in our county. The target: A 92-year-old Edgewater man. Tricked by an unscrupulous scammer, the victim is now out $420. And as bad as that is, it could have been worse. Once they found their mark, the thieves circled back around and tried to take advantage of him a second time. Fortunately the victim caught on to the scam before the thieves could get their hands on any more of his money. Just a couple of weeks ago, the Edgewater man received a letter in the mail notifying him that he had been randomly selected to win $5.5 million. There was a catch: First he had to pay $420 in order to collect his winnings. After the man sent in the money as instructed, he was then told he would have to send in another $420 in order to collect the full amount of his winnings. It was at that point that the man realized that he had been scammed. His next call was to the Sheriff’s Office to report the incident.

F

From The Sheriff …Volusia County Sheriff Ben Johnson

While we continue to investigate the incident, the unfortunate reality is that once a scammer has stolen your money, it’s extremely difficult if not impossible to get it back. If someone claims that you’ve won a sweepstakes or lottery that you never even entered, it’s a sure sign of a scam. No legitimate lottery or sweepstakes would require up-front payment of taxes or fees in order to collect a prize. If taxes or fees apply, they would be taken out of your winnings. Multiple phone calls, high-pressure pitches, and the requirement of upfront payment are all signs of a potential scam. Don’t become a scam artist’s next victim. Anyone who receives a comeon like this is urged to ignore it and then report the incident to your local law enforcement agency.

Pet Care Visiting Dog Ruins Trip by Sam Mazzotta

Dear Paw's Corner: My sister-inlaw insists on bringing her yappy, illtempered lap dog, Mitsi, to our house every time they visit. Mitsi gets along with no one but her owner, frightens our two cats, and barks at everyone in the house during dinner, nonstop. I love having my brother and his wife over, but Mitsi is making things hellish. How can I politely ask her to leave Mitsi in a kennel during visits? —Barked Out in Birmingham, AL Dear Barked Off: I don't know that there's a way to tell your sister-in-law to leave her dog at home that would be taken well. Mitsi clearly is a full member of their family and travels with her. Can a compromise be reached instead? Ask her if Mitsi can be placed in a separate room during mealtimes while they are visiting. She'll probably still bark, but at least it won't be right in your ear. You also need to discuss how Mitsi is stressing out the cats. Sometimes people think it's funny when a visiting

dog chases the family pets around, but it's not fun for those pets. It's like having a schoolyard bully walk right into your home. Try to keep the discussion civil. Ultimately, you'll have to decide what level of compromise to ask for in order to keep peace in your house, and you'll have to be firm. Your sisterin-law takes her relationship with her dog seriously; she should respect your concerns as well. That discussion probably won't be comfortable, but if Mitsi's barking and bullying are making the holidays a living hell, you need to say something. Send your questions or tips to ask@ pawscorner.com

Same Love by Amber Marcoux eartworm positive dogs are often overlooked as adoptable animals; with proper care most heartworm positive animals can be treated. Although heartworm can be a very serious and fatal disease, humane society animals may often be at early stages of disease. A heartworm lives in the heart, lung, or blood vessel of the animal causing potential lung disease, heart failure, or even damage to other organs. Heartworms are often passed from one heartworm infected animal to another uninfected animal by means of a mosquito passing blood meal that contains larvae. Heartworm positive dogs may not

show signs of disease, while some dogs may show slight signs including coughing and lethargy. Although caring for a heartworm positive animal may seem like an overwhelming experience, a proper plan of action with your vet can ensure the process is a smooth and optimistic treatment process for your animal. Once a dog has been diagnosed and veriďŹ ed as heartworm positive; a heartworm preventative will be prescribed, along with 28 days of an antibiotic in addition to exercise restriction. The preventative will kill new heartworms while the antibiotic weakens the adult heartworms in addition to targeting bacteria. Approximately one month

after the original heartworm preventative is administered, a second preventative is administered. On the 60th day of the treatment process, a heartworm preventative is administered to your dog and a visit with your vet is scheduled so the ďŹ rst adult treatment for heartworm is administered. A month following the ďŹ rst adult treatment; you would need to administer the heartworm preventative to your dog and the 2nd and 3rd adult treatment will be given within 24 hours of each other. A six month followup appointment will be scheduled to evaluate your dog to ensure that the treatment was successful in eliminating the heartworm disease. It is important to limit/restrict activity

for your animal throughout the entire process of treatment and to adhering to the treatment schedule. The fee schedule for the heartworm treatment may vary depending on the veterinarian. Halifax Humane Society Animals follows the American Heartworm Association Guidelines, and they ensure that heartworm positive dogs adopted all receive the treatment for a subsidized cost of $140.
