Some studies show that farmers make “40%-70% more for their products at the market than selling them through wholesale outlets.” But farmers’ markets come with challenges, too. For one, the time and energy to travel and set up at the market is time and energy spent away from the farm. Secondly, hours and location are most often controlled by the market, not the individual vendors. A new start-up called Pinemelon, launched in April of this year, offers a chance for participating farmers to extend their reach to customers by cutting out the middlemen.Pinemelon is the sister company to the online grocery store Arbuz, based in Kazakhstan. Currently, the only location in the United States is in Denver. Its 30,000-square-foot warehouse contains pantry staples and local produce and meat that it can deliver to anyone in a half-an-hour radius.

Visitors learn about bird banding at Barr Lake State Park

Local farmers can have many different revenue streams, but they’re not all created equal. Some farmers may wholesale their produce to grocery stores or, perhaps they’ll sell directly to restaurants. But according to two local farmers who recently spoke with Rocky Mountain PBS, the real money is in farmers’ markets.

birds…That’s very difficult,” Job said. “Our approach, we don’t ever have to recapture a bird… If we capture an American Robin in the winter in Mexico, all we have to do is pull a feather from that bird, look at its genetics, and we can see which population that bird came from.” Job said the project helps scientists to better understand which subspecies are struggling and which are doing well, so that conservation energy and money can be directly applied where it is most needed.

“The Bird Genoscape Project is a genomics-based project where we are looking to sort of take an ‘ancestry dot com’ approach to avian genetics,” said Jacob Job, associate director of the project. The project started in 2009 as a partnership between scientists at CSU and the University of California, Los Angeles, Job said. In 2019, the Bird Conservancy of the Rockies started to contribute DNA samples to the project, McBurney said. Banding is scientifically useful to understand overall population patterns but it has its limits. Collecting DNA samples can take scientists well beyond those limitations, Job said.“Part of the problem with banding is you have to recover those same

They caught house wrens, song sparrows, Wilson’s warblers and more yellow warblers than you can imagine, put identification bands on their legs and set them free. At 93, Popp loves birds. And on Aug. 26, Grein woke her up extra early so she could see dozens of them up close. Barr Lake State Park is one of five sites across Colorado and Nebraska where visitors can watch staff from The Bird Conservancy of the Rockies conduct bird banding each fall. Bird banding is a method used to collect data about wild birds to increase scientific understanding of migratory routes and timings, species’ range limits, average lifespans and how all these life-history characteristics may be changing over time. On the state park property, there are 25 barely visible nets, so thin they’re called mist nets, volunteer Cynde Barnes said. Birds fly into these nets and gently fall into a pocket, where volunteers and staff retrieve them to bring to the banding station, she said. At the station, bander and volunteer coordinator Meredith McBurney measure the width of each bird’s leg to determine which size band would be the best fit. She then attaches a lightweight aluminum band to one leg on each bird.

Migratory stopover Within the larger mission of conservation, it’s important to care for the habitats where birds spend time, Barnes said. Barr Lake State Park is an important stopover on the migratory path for many species, as it provides food, water, shelter and space, she said.

“So every bird gets a band, every band has a different number. And of course if it’s caught again, we know exactly which one it is,” McBurney said, pausing every now and then to announce measurements of the bird’s wingspan, tail feathers, weight, amount of fat and stage of molting to a volunteer keeping track of the numbers on a handwritten chart.This data is sent to the U.S. Geological Survey, which gathers data from banders across the nation to analyze and track migratory patterns and population wellbeing, McBurney said. When a banded bird is caught in a different location, it provides information about that bird’s travel path, she said. ‘Ancestry dot com’ approach In addition to taking note of the band number and measurements, McBurney collects two feathers from some of the birds she catches. These feathers are sent to Colorado State University to contribute to the Bird Genoscape Project, she said. “In order to be able to conserve birds, we have to be able to understand their full lifecycle. That is everything that happens to the bird during the year,” McBurney said. “One of the ways we can do that, besides putting on a band and catching it again, is to look at the DNA.”

“This is an absolute important migratory stopover,” she said. “It’s not just a minor little thing. So we want to preserve Barr Lake and we want people to understand what an absolute gem they have in their backyard, because so many people from Brighton have never even been here.”Visitors can register online to spend a morning at the site to learn about bird banding like Grein and Popp did. The station is open to the public Tuesdays-Sundays until Oct. 23. Visiting the station costs $6 per person.Inaddition to the educational value of learning about bird conservation, experiencing bird banding up close can be magical, no matter what age you are.

The 4th Degree is also the visible arm of the Knights of Columbus. Members honor their deceased brothers in the order by attending their funerals and being present for family members at Catholic rosaries and funerals. The national organization introduced new member regalia for the 4th Degree in 2019, which is expected to cost each member roughly $600. The spaghetti dinner benefit is a way to help raise additional funds to support the membership with the burden of this cost to continue their work in the community.

Chris Fiedler was due to make a final recommendation to the school board Sept. 6, after press time. The 15-member panel agreed that 27J was behind in funding and “was not at all competitive with our neighboring districts (or all other districts statewide,” according to district spokeswoman Janelle Asmus. However, the group was unsure about asking for a mill-levy override right now, given the impacts of the economic climate, public hesitancy regarding funding matters given the potential for a recession, the uncertainty of things like the supply chain and gas prices. The panel told the board it thought there would be more people at the polls for a 2024 presidential election.

Colorado voters will have a chance in November to weigh in on the state’s long-running alcoholpolicy war. The Colorado Secretary of State’s Office announced Friday that three ballot measures that would change booze policy in the state — including one that would let grocery stores sell wine — have qualified for the November ballot after their supporters collected a sufficient number of voter signatures.The following measures qualified:•Initiative 96, which would open the door for liquor retailers to be able to open an unlimited number of stores in Colorado starting in 2037.•Initiative 121, which would let retailers who have a license to sell beer, such as grocery stores, also sell wine. • Initiative 122, which would let third-party services deliver alcohol.A fourth alcohol-policy measure, Initiative 135, which would have required local approval for liquor license changes in an effort to slow down grocery stores’ ability to begin selling wine in addition to beer, failed to make the ballot after its supporters didn’t turn in the signatures they had collected. Millions of dollars are already being spent in support of initiatives 96, 121 and 122, including nearly $2 million from U.S. Rep. David Trone and his brother, Robert, who own the national Total Wine & More chain. The Trones are supporting Initiative 96, which would let Total Wine open more stores in Colorado.Rightnow, liquor retailers are allowed to open only three stores in Colorado. Total Wine has two Colorado stores and will soon open a third. Small retail liquor stores are fiercely opposed to the measure. Already on the ballot was Initiative 58, a measure to decriminalize and regulate the use of “magic” mushrooms, and Initiative 31, a measure asking voters to reduce the state income tax rate to 4.4% fromAdditionally,4.55%. Initiative 108 qualified for the ballot last week. It would divert 0.1% of taxable income from the general fund to the state affordable housing fund, which would represent about $270 million in its first year. While taxes wouldn’t be raised under the proposal, the amount of money available for Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights refunds would be reduced by whatever is set aside for the housing fund. The legislature referred two statutory measures to the ballot this year, including one that would reduce state income tax deductions for people with higher incomes and use the savings to provide free K-12 school meals for all students. The other would require detailed information about how ballot measures changing the income tax rate would impact various income brackets to be more prominently displayed to voters.

TANDARD BLADESBRIGHTON SERVING THE COMMUNITY SINCE 1903 C

I hope that all of my fellow Coloradans who are eligible will take advantage of it as soon as possible. It’s your money, why not claim it? Dennis Tonsager is a 45 year resident of Adams County

One of my closest friends is Brian, and he stands out to me for many reasons. He is a strong man of faith, a true prayer warrior, a loving and devoted father and husband, a gift to the community we live in, and really to anyone who has the privilege of meeting Brian. Many people speak of their philosophy of hoping to leave every person they meet better off than when they had met them, and if you spend time with Brian, even if it is for five minutes, you will know what I am talking about. We share insights about life and business, and we definitely enjoy getting together over a beer or three to let our creativity take over and speak about what else we can do to serve others. Brian and I had a chance to play golf last week and he started our conversation in the cart by telling me, “You are that person.” And he said it with such conviction, I was curious to know what he meant.Hesaid it again, but this time he wasn’t just referring to me, he was referring to all of us. Whether at work, at home, in the community, or anywhere else, if something needs to be done, we all have the opportunity to step up and “Be that person.” He was not speaking about specific skills we would need to take care of a complex task, but more of the day-to-day things that so many take for granted or simply walk away assuming someone else would take care of it, and maybe even think it’s not our responsibility.Ifthereisapiece of trash on the ground, do we walk by it or do we pick it up and throw it away? Or are we hoping someone else will come by and clean it up? If an elderly person who needs help with a shopping cart and maybe getting across the street, do we stop what we are doing to assist them, or walk away and hope that some other nice person might come by to help? If we see someone who needs an ear to listen or the need to be consoled, do we avoid them or sit and listen or offer a hug? We can “Be that person.” At work, if a co-worker needs a hand, even though it’s not in our job description, do we offer to help in some way to help lighten the load? Or do we avoid making eye contact and leave the area and let them struggle or again, hope someone else might be more willing to help? If we have taken the last cup of coffee, do we refill the pot? If the printer is out of paper, do we load more paper or wait for someone else to do it when they come to pick up the print job and realize there was no paper? We can “Be that person.”

The work of Governor Polis and our legislators can’t be ignored. The truth is that we wouldn’t be getting this money now, when we need it most, or as much of it, if it wasn’t for the actions of these leaders.Alotof people in Colorado haven’t fully recovered from these last few years, and this money is an opportunity to save, an opportunity for growth, even an opportunity to get back on your feet.

Don’t leave TABOR money on the table COLUMNGUEST TonsagerDennis VOICES

That’s why this funding is so important, which is why I thank Governor Polis and Treasurer Young for getting this money back to quickly.taxpayersWhenIthinkabout this money, I think about the young families who are getting ready for the school year, spending hundreds of dollars on supplies. I think about the seniors across the state who are living on fi xed incomes, some skimping on needed medications because they can’t afford them. I think about the families who are struggling to get by, and could use this money to turn things around. So many Coloradans will use this money for everyday essentials like grocery, gas, or needed maintenance. Others might use it to take the fi rst vacation they’ve had in years. However you spend it, there’s no denying its impact. Unfortunately, too many Coloradans are leaving this money on the table. Right now, there are roughly 500,000 Coloradans who haven’t yet fi led their 2021 taxes and I’m writing today to encourage those very folks to fi le now and get their money. If you haven’t fi led yet, there is still time to fi le by the October 17 extension deadline and get your check by the end of the year or early next year. Even if your tax form ends up with $0 income or $0 taxes owed, you still will receive the full refund!Mywife and I are considering using our money for some car repairs, and it’s possible that we may have to replace our air conditioner, which has been essential for us in this heat. The Cash Back will give us the cushion we need to move forward on these projects. We’re also planning to make a donation to the Wild Animal Sanctuary in Keenesburg, Colorado, a worthy organization we both support. And of course, there’s other maintenance, insurance, and gas expenses that we’ll use this money for if we’re able to.

John Gengel, the director of merchandising at Pinemelon, said their priority is to work with smaller farmers that are passionate about regenerative or organic farming practices.

Michael Moss is the owner and lead farmer for Kilt Farm. Through a new partnership, his organic produce can reach the mouths across the Denver metro area.

“We feel it is our duty to help these farmers get this food into the mouths of people,” Gengel said.Michael Moss is the owner and lead farmer for Kilt Farm, another farm that works with Pinemelon. Located in Longmont, Kilt Farm is an 80-acre regenerative, organic farm that supports a 250-family CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program. Moss said for a long time, people asked to have his produce brought to locations like Aurora, Denver and Englewood, which he had to decline due to distance. But now, this partnership allows him to extend his impact. “You know I have a 19-monthold son, and he’s eating my food,” said Moss. “And I’m seeing kids grow up eating my food, and that really gives me a lot of hope.”

Fall is Covid season in Colorado Health experts talk expectations

THE COLORADO SUN Little has been consistent during the coronavirus pandemic in Colorado, but this has: Fall is COVID season.Inboth 2020 and 2021, as kids returned to classes and pumpkinspiced lattes emerged from their caffeinated hidey-holes, COVID cases began to rise in the state. By this time last year, reports of new coronavirus infections had already been climbing for more than a month. In 2020, infections began rising in the first week of September. In both years, the trends peaked in November in Colorado, part of a mysterious seasonality to the rhythm of the virus. But it’s possible that this year, just maybe, will defy the trend, said Dr. Jonathan Samet, the dean of the Colorado School of Public Health. Samet, who is part of a team that tracks data to create projections about the pandemic’s course, said he isn’t seeing any worrisome signs in the numbers he’s following. “Everything is going in the right direction,” he said. “Hospitalizations are down. Wastewater levels are down. Percent positivity (of COVID tests) is down. So as we head into the fall, we are in good shape.”

Colorado reported about 6,200 new coronavirus infections last week, a decline of more than 1,000 cases from the week prior. There were 464 patients admitted to the hospital with coronavirus infec tions last week, down by about 4% from the week before. According to state data, 53% of those hospitalized with the virus are unvaccinated — though that number doesn’t tell the full story because only about 63% of the peo ple currently in the hospital with COVID are there because of their COVID symptoms. The state does not provide a breakdown of the vaccination status of those in the hospital specifically due to COVID.

In Samet’s view, that level of community immunity should be able to stave off the fall surge that Colorado saw in 2020 and 2021 — at least for a couple more months, if not“Wherelonger.the prediction becomes uncertain is when we look out beyond early to mid-October and the what-if a new variant arrives, which is always a concern,” Samet said. “We keep generating them.”

“There’s not a delta-type situation on the horizon right now,” he said, referencing the delta variant, which gained steam at this time last year. And Samet said there’s another reason for optimism this fall: Just because cases have surged the previous two years doesn’t mean they’re destined to again this year. Yes, as kids go back to school and cooler weather means people begin to move indoors more, opportunities for transmission increase. But there’s also a lot we don’t know about how and when COVID spreads. After all, while the pandemic seems interminable, our studying of COVID has been relatively brief.

The reason Samet feels reasonably confident that these positive trends will continue is that the state has been taking a beating from the omicron gang of coronavirus variants for the past nine months and, before that, dealt with a punishing wave of infections caused by the delta variant. Those successive waves mean a lot of folks in Colorado have been exposed or been infected in the past year, giving the state a level of immunity that is also bolstered by new vaccinations for young kids and booster shots for older adults.

“We really only have two falls under our belt,” Samet said. “I would be careful about general izing.”

BY JOHN INGOLD

Dr. Rachel Herlihy, the state epidemiologist, said last week the state is seeing “a sustained decline in cases.” The infections that are occurring are largely due to the omicron BA.5 variant, she said. But Colorado has seen newer variants pop up, as well. The state has confirmed a smat tering of infections from the BA.4.6 variant, and the BA.2.75 variant has been detected in wastewater samples, indicating it may be spreading, as well. Samet said those variants bear watching. But, so far, they haven’t shown signs of being monsters, he said.

Each year, the American Heart Association, or AHA, releases a checklist known as Life’s Essential 8. The list provides key measures for improving and maintaining cardiovascular health, which helps lower risk of heart diseases, stroke and other major health problems. In unveiling the 2022 list, the AHA had some new items and guidance for others, including new suggestions for diet and adding sleep. The Life’s Essential 8 list if comprised of two major areas –Health behaviors and health factors.

5. MANAGE WEIGHT – Achieving and maintaining a healthy weight has many benefits. Body mass index, a numerical value of weight in relation to height, is a useful gauge, according to the AHA. An optimal BMI is 25.

2. BE MORE ACTIVE – Adults should get 2.5 hours of moderate or 75 minutes of vigorous physical activity per week. Kids should have 60 minutes every day, including play and structured activities.

7. MANAGE BLOOD SUGAR – Most of the food American eat turns into glucose, which is the sugar that the body uses as energy.

1. EAT BETTER – According to the AHA, Americans should aim for an overall healthy eating pattern that includes whole foods, lots of fruits and vegetables, lean protein, nuts, seeds and cooking non-tropical oils such as olive and canola.

A marathon, not a sprint Park said a common disconnect between doctor and patient is people thinking they have to change lifestyle and everything they are eating and doing all at once.

“Everyone has some time somewhere,” he said. “I waste plenty of time when I think about it.”

When it comes to exercise, Park says it is important to take small steps towards achieving big goals. A person can take short walks and runs that will help lead up to exercise and fi tness goals over a short period of time. Park said people often say they do not have time for exercise, which he stresses cannot be completely true.

To get what is considered by medical professionals as a “healthy” night’s sleep, it is recommended that adults get between seven and nine hours. Children require more at 10 to 16 hours per day with night and naptime.

• Cardiovascular disease

“It is hard to just tell someone to stop doing something they have formed a habit to,” he said. “Instead of just stopping, I encourage people to just start cutting back, taking less.”

FROM PAGE 4 HEART HEALTH

Diet and exercise A constant on the heart health lists from multiple organizations is healthy eating and exercise.The AHA stresses that developing a healthy eating pattern can increase heart health. Besides eating smaller portions in general, the AHA recommends a heavy dose of vegetables and fruits every day, along with limiting sweetened drinks, alcohol and sodium.Avoiding trans-fat is also recommended.When it comes to his patients, Park said diet is a constant discussion for patients suffering from heart disease and having other issues.The second continuous discussion is exercise. According to the AHA, adults should get a weekly total of at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity.

Park said this mentality leads to failure because a person cannot make lifestyle changes in only a day.

“Sleep is highly important, but I have to admit, even doctors have a lack of sleep,” Park said. “Being well rested makes a huge difference. It is associated with sleep apnea and obesity. Everything, when it comes to the heart, is really interconnected. It also just allows the body to reset.”

When it comes to eating, Park said this is one of the biggest struggles in making lifestyle changes. When a person is used to the fast-food line every day, taking small steps to realign habits is important.

• Depression • Elevated blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol levels • Obesity On the other hand, putting a priority on getting enough rest, according to the AHA, can help with:

According to a recent study released by countingsheep.net, Colorado is one of the states struggling to get enough sleep, ranking 23rd. The study was created through analyzing county health rankings and Google search data. Some of the data to rank each state is based on how many people attempt to treat insomnia with medications.Accordingto the study, overall, in the past year, 30% of Coloradans have not got suffi cient sleep each night, which is over 1.7 million adults. Based on Google search data, it was found that these insuffi cient sleepers have searched for sleep medication online 203,760 times over the past year. This indicated 11% of Coloradans who suffer from insomnia treat the condition with sleep medication, ranking the state’s residents as the 23rd unhealthiest sleepers in America.

Nutrition Examination Survey of more than 55,000 U.S. adults over the age of 20 from 1999 to 2018. The data revealed that many Americans meet at least one of the fi ve identifi ed risk factors, leading to potential risk for heart attack or heart failure, stroke or other associated complications such as Type 2 diabetes.Dr. Jeffrey Park, a cardiologist with Aurora Denver Cardiology at The Medical Center of Aurora, said the study results are eye-opening.“Americain general has been experiencing a decline in optimal heart health for some time,” Park said. “It may be surprising but it is also a matter of what we know now compared to what we knew from the past. We learn more as these risk factors are included in the equation.”

Even as more information and education is coming along to redevelop guidelines to achieve optimal heart health, Park said busy people are struggling to meet all fi ve key areas. When it comes to diet, Park said Americans are busy and constantly on the go. That means more fast, easy food. “We are on the go and eating out a lot more,” he said. “That also translates to not having enough time for exercise and we are not getting enough sleep.” Sleep a newer key factor Every year, the AHA updates what is known as Life’s Essential 8, which are key measures for improving and maintaining heart health. Making the 2022 list for the fi rst time is sleep, which Park said should be considered as Americans grow more tired.

The result of a lack of sleep is not just tired people, it is now being associated with poor hearth health. According to AHA, poor sleep can put a person at higher risk for:

• Health and repairing skin cells, tissues and blood vessels

• Better brain function

Vermont was ranked as the nation’s unhealthiest sleep state. Pennsylvania was ranked on the opposite end of the list as the nation’s healthiest sleep state.

Instead, Park said people should listen to their doctors and start implementing the recommendations slowly.

Park said one of the common struggles between patient and doctor is getting on a realistic plan both can live“Aswith.aphysician, in general, you can tell your patients to do something but it comes down to if they will listen.”

• Cognitive decline and dementia

• Having a stronger immune system•Improving mood and energy

“When you hear news, confront (your child),” Geva said. “Tell them the news you have heard from other parents.”

Geva said parents can create down time by encouraging a child to just go to the grocery store for a bit, go for a calm, relaxing walk or even stress the importance of play time. “It’s important to do activities that have no real objectives,” Geva said. “Helping to give the child a connection and letting them know they are OK.” While managing activities and time for elementary students is easier, Geva said overseeing how much high schoolers are relaxing and destressing can be more of a challenge.Gevasaid regular communication and encouragement is important for teenagers. For parents, cutting a child a break is also important, Geva said. “If a child is really wanting to shift, change or quit an activity – listen to them,” Geva said. “Allow them to adjust to do what is really best for them.”

Geva said throughout the year, parents should often work toward doing mental health check-ins with both elementary and high-school level children. Working on time management skills and helping to manage required down time can also help relieve pressure and anxiety students feel today.

September 8, 202216 Brighton Standard Blade September 8, 20226 Health & Wellness

“It is important in that child/parent relationship to establish a routine,” she said. “Make it a habit to keep hanging out and doing things together. Do not get into a habit of only talking to them when there is a problem.”

When it comes to grades and expectations, Geva said parents should keep up with children and have set standards and expectations. However, she recommended only checking grades sporadically to keep tabs on a student rather than“Childrendaily. really do want independence,” Geva said. “But for parents, checking grades sporadically, doing routine check-ins with teachers and keeping in touch with other parents can keep you informed about your child.”

By nature, Geva said girls are encouraged and naturally tend to express themselves and show emotion. “Boys are a little more tricky,” she said. “It is really a societal thing, and every age is different. It is always important to check in and ask questions regularly.”Forany child, Geva said parents should grow concerned if a child is suddenly displaying different character traits or having abrupt changes in mood.Having an established relationship will help parents identify and react when children are struggling.

Geva said as students are getting more adjusted to the school year, parents can help stave off some anxiety by talking things out, stressing that something that happened during fall or winter break last year may not happen again this year. A bad grade from a class last year doesn’t mean it will happen again this year.

Geva said other students worry differently. These are the students who may not have had a bad year last year but worry about the unknown, stressing about what could happen and thinking the“Itworst.isnot uncommon to have a student have more anxiety by creating things that could go wrong and really thinking the worst in their minds,” Geva said. For these students, Geva said it’s important to communicate with children and talk them through the created anxiety. Emphasize that the horrible things they are imagining in their minds are likely never going to become reality. These days, students are worried about grades and meeting expectations. They worry about doing well in athletics and participating in various programs. As pressures mount, Geva said a student can stay stressed out and anxious throughout the school year.

Having relationships with other parents is beneficial, Geva said, because children often leave out details about the day. Having other parents talking and telling each other what is going on can help in keeping tabs on the daily activities of the class.

It is common when a new school year rolls around for students to be anxious and nervous, but experts agree that stress and worry can continue as the first days turn into weeks andDr.months.AnatGeva, a clinical psychologist with the HealthONE Behavioral Health & Wellness Center, said the beginning of a school year can come with a variety of nerves.Some students may be worried that bad things from the previous year will happen again this year.

As the school year continues, Geva said parents should also promote structured schedules, regular bedtimes and push for good hygiene and eating habits.Through communication, reasonable expectations and check-ins, Geva said stress and anxiety cannot be completely eliminated for students, but it can be dealt with regularly. Parents can be proactiveallyear

In the United States, high blood pressure during pregnancy is becoming more common, according to the CDC, and medical conditions including preeclampsia, gestational diabetes and blood clots during pregnancy all increase stroke risk during and immediately following a pregnancy.Managing conditions like high blood pressure before getting pregnant helps keep you and your baby healthy during pregnancy and beyond. In addition, your health during and immediately after a pregnancy can shape the lifelong health of you and your child. If you’re planning to become pregnant or are currently pregnant, it’s important to regularly monitor your blood pressure.

• Face drooping – Does one side of the face droop or is it numb? Ask the person to smile. Is the person’s smile uneven?

The best way to know your blood pressure is to have it measured at least once per year by a health care professional and regularly monitor it at home then discuss the numbers with a doctor. For most people, a normal blood pressure should be 120/80 mm HG or less. In addition to properly monitoring blood pressure, maintaining a healthy weight, being physically active, eating healthfully and reducing or eliminating alcohol and tobacco usage can help control blood pressure. If you do develop high blood pressure, work with a health care professional on a plan to help manage it.

Because of the variety of symptoms someone with a concussion might show, Abramczyk-Thill said it is important to know the child well and be weary of any sudden changes in the following:

• Are they sad or depressed suddenly?

CHILDREN AND TEENS ARE ALWAYS SUSCEPTIBLE TO GETTING HURT TIS THE SEASON FOR INJURIES:

Amanda Abramczyk-Thill, the injury prevention education outreach coordinator at Children’s Hospital Colorado, said children and teens are always active and injuries come with the territory. From bumps and bruises from a simple bicycle crash to the more serious injuries related to a head bump –Abramczyk-Thill said parents should be constantly in tune with how their children are feeling and acting. Fall injuries In the fall, Abramczyk-Thill said it’s the start of the new school year and sports programs are getting back on track. Kids are playing at recess and the weather is still good enough for bike, scooter and evening activities. “In the fall, (hospitals/doctors) see an uptick in a variety of falls,” she said. “More kids are playing on the playgrounds at recess and sports gets going.”When it comes to elementary-school children, Abramczyk-Thill said the falls on the playground are not usually due to the equipment itself. Instead, it usually comes down to how it is being used.

• Forward-facing car seat is not to be used for children until age 5, depending on weight and state law.

Year-round injuries In what is a year-round struggle for doctors, Abramczyk-Thill said hospitals often see children who were in the wrong car seat or not in one at all.

CDC recommendations include:

September 8, 202218 Brighton Standard Blade September 8, 20228 Health & Wellness

hether they are in elementary, high school or college, children and teenagers are always susceptible to getting hurt, so much so that injury designations are split by season in many hospitals.

• Appears dazed and stunned • Moves clumsily • Answers questions slowly • Loses consciousness • Nausea or vomiting • Bothered by light or noise

Winter injuries

“There are some common myths out there,” she said. “One of those being that they will show symptoms right away. Signs and symptoms can be delayed.”

• Are they getting confused easily and showing cognitive issues?

Abramczyk-Thill explained that if a child is not big enough to be sitting in a seat with just a seatbelt, their knees do not quite reach properly over the edge of the seat. In the event of a crash, their bodies tend to slip under the seatbelt restraints and serious injuries can happen.

• Are they complaining of headaches?

• Inability to recall events prior to or after a hit or fall

Abramczyk-Thill said all of these signs can come over days, not immediately after a head injury. According to the Centers for Disease Control, other symptoms of a concussion include:

• Booster seat should be used once a child outgrows a forward-facing car seat and kept until a child fits safely on a seat with knees over the edge.

• Rear-facing seats from birth until ages 2 to 4, depending on weight and state law.

The CDC reported that when it comes to car crashes, a large number of child deaths and injuries are due to improper restraints. In 2019, more than 600 children 12 and younger died in motor vehicle crashes, and more than 91,000 were injured. Of the children 12 and younger who died in a crash (for whom restraint use was known), 38% were not buckled up. Parents and caregivers can make a lifesaving difference by checking whether their children are properly buckled on every trip.

• Mood – Are they more irritable and irrational?

Abramczyk-Thill said which seat a child is sitting in should never about their age. It should always be about their size.

Abramczyk-Thill said concussions are a common theme throughout the year, and doctors see a lot during the winter months.While they see some sports injuries with falls and hits for indoor sports such as basketball and wrestling, the bulk of injuries can come form outside play.

Abramczyk-Thill said a statistic that may surprise parents is the head injuries associated with sledding. Whether it’s a small hill in the neighborhood or a day trip to the mountains, she said sleds move at a quick speed and crashes often cause head injuries. Because of how hard a person can hit the ground in a crash, Abramczyk-Thill recommends requiring children to wear helmets while sledding. It has become more common in riding bikes, scooters and other equipment, and AbramczykThill said sledding should be added to the“Alist.lot of us grew up without wearing a helmet and, especially for something like sledding, we may not even think about it,” Abramczyk-Thill said. “It’s just important to protect your brain because you only have one.” Arm, leg and head injuries are often associated with the ice. Abramczyk-Thill said whether it is a child, teenager or adult, during the winter ice causes a wide variety of Abramczyk-Thillinjuries. said it is important to clear driveways, sidewalks and areas where children are most active during the winter. It is also important to teach safety to children when ice is present, meaning not walking and playing on it. Spring and summer In school, spring sports brings baseball, track and field and softball, which comes with more head injuries, especially when an athlete is hit by a line drive.The warmer months also bring more outdoor activities, including riding ATVs, Abramczyk-ThillAbramczyk-Thillsaid.said a variety of ages ride ATVs and there are usually lax rules with wearing helmets and rules for passengers.Seeing ATV injuries from a passenger falling without a helmet is common, Abramczyk-Thill.

“You have cases where a child may be using equipment that is not quite for their age or size,” she said. “Or, you have cases where the children are using the equipment improperly and that leads to injury.”With playground equipment, besides the traditional scrapes and bruises, Abramczyk-Thill said hospitals see more arm and leg injuries. In sports, Abramczyk-Thill said there are a variety of injuries from everything from football and cheerleading to soccer. In recent years, hockey has also grown in Inpopularity.sports,Abramczyk-Thill said it might be surprising to learn that besides concussions, a common injury doctors see is to the Abramczyk-Thilleye. said in any sport, parents might consider getting protective eye gear for athletes in all sports. This should become as common as the helmet and mouth guards, she added. Learn the signs Because concussions receive the most media attention and are one of the injuries coaches and parents are more vigilant about, it is important to understand the signs and symptoms, especially the subtle ones no one expects.

Listen to Your Gut If you’re undecided, request an introductory appointment with a provider you’re considering. Look for a clinic where you are treated with respect and the medical team listens to your opinions and concerns. You should feel comfortable asking questions, and the doctor needs to be able to explain things in ways you understand. Find more resources for your health care needs at cms.gov.

Ask for Recommendations

Talk to people you know about whether they have a provider they like. If you’re looking for a new provider because of a move or retirement, ask your current doctor for a recommendation. If you need to make a change with your primary care doctor but see specialists or other medical professionals you like and trust, you can also request referrals from them.

Check with Your Insurance Company

How to find

Brighton Standard Blade 19September 8, 2022 September 8, 2022 Health & Wellness 9

To find a doctor who takes your insurance, call your insurance company and ask for a list of doctors near you who are in-network or use the insurance company’s website to search for a doctor. It’s also a good idea to call the doctor’s office and ask for confirmation they take your plan. You should have your insurance, Medicare or Medicaid card handy in case the office needs your plan details.

Some of the providers you consider may not be viable options for simple reasons, like their practice isn’t currently taking new patients or they don’t have office hours matching your schedule. You can also consider questions such as hospital affiliations and whether other providers can help if you need emergency care and your doctor isn’t available.

Take a Deeper Look Online research can tell you a great deal about potential doctors, from biographical information and credentials to ratings by former patients.When searching for a new provider, another important area to consider is financial relationships. One resource patients can consider is Open Payments, a national disclosure program within CMS that provides visibility into financial relationships between drug and medical device companies and physicians, and teaching hospitals. The government requires pharmaceutical companies, device manufacturers and group purchasing organizations to report funds they give health care providers in the form of meals, entertainment, travel, gifts, consulting fees, research payments and more, promoting transparency and helping uncover potential conflicts of interest. It’s important to know most health care providers receive payments. Just because financial ties are reported does not mean anyone has done anything wrong. However, patients can use the information to talk with their provider about why they recommend certain medications or treatments, including asking about generic options, which are equally as effective as name brands but typically less expensive. It’s also an opportunity to start a discussion with a provider about areas of professional interest and expertise based on research or consulting.

Narrow Your Options

If you have health insurance, you may need to choose from a list of doctors in your plan’s network. Some insurance plans may let you choose a doctor outside your network if you pay more of the cost.

Whether you’re rarely sick or have conditions that require frequent visits to the doctor, having a trusted and skilled health care provider is an important step in protecting your health. Any number of reasons can result in needing to find a new doctor, such as moving to a new community, changes to your insurance, your old doctor retiring or needing a specialist.These suggestions from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) can help you be more efficient and thorough as you look for a doctor who is right for you.

What does the governor want the EPA to do?

Is reformulated gasoline more expensive?

(*Must be at least 55 years old)

.... give me a call for a confidential, free, in-home review of this retirement changing product.

EPA Regional Administrator KC Becker, a former state house speaker, acknowledged federal action would likely lead to higher gasoline prices at a recent transportation“Thissummit.isonething that can help drive down ozone, but it is going to make gas a lot more expensive in Colorado,” Becker said.

Polis has asked the federal government to study and possibly delay the reformulated gasoline mandate. The question is whether there’s a legal pathway for the request to move forward. Colorado air regulators are now preparing a proposal, known as a State Implementation Plan, to bring ozone levels below federal limits. In early August, the board overseeing the Regional Air Quality Council voted to attach a statement from the Polis administration to the latest draft.The statement argues the financial impact on drivers would outweigh the benefits of reformulated gas. In 30 years since Congress approved the requirement, cars have become more fuel efficient. Separate regulations also mean conventional gasoline burns cleaner than it once did. As a result, the Polis administration sees more promise in other air pollution strategies, like encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles. “The state is frustrated that the Clean Air Act offers only a decadesold one-size-fits-all approach that does not provide states with the latitude to make data-driven decisions on what works best for improving air quality in an economically effective manner,” the Polis administration wrote in the statement.

In 2021, federal data show reformulated regular-grade fuel cost 36 cents more per gallon compared to conventional gasoline nationwide, on average. As of last week, the price gap was about 30 cents per gallon.Exact cost predictions for reformulated fuel in Colorado vary wildly.TheDenver Metro Chamber of Commerce claims prices of reformulated blends could be nearly 50 cents per gallon higher after the EPA mandate goes into effect.

In April, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency proposed reclassifying most of the region as a “severe” ozone viola tor.

Katherine Jones, a spokesperson for the Governor’s Office, said the request is the latest example of Polis working to help Colorado families save money, echo ing a major theme of his current election campaign. “The administration has proposed alternatives and other viable options to the EPA’s approach that do not raise costs. The governor’s focus is on taking actions that will improve air quality, not seeking exemptions from EPA designation,” Jones said. But experts agree it is a tall ask since federal laws leave little to no wiggle room around the gasoline mandate in regions considered “severe” ozone violators. Polis’ request also marks a shift from his administration, which withdrew a state attempt to delay federal ozone action earlier in his term. To break down the debate, here’s what reformulated gasoline is and what it could mean for Colorado. What is reformulated gasoline? Reformulated gasoline is a cleaner fuel blended to emit fewer smog ingredients. Congress established a program to require remixed fuel in high-ozone areas when it updated the U.S. Clean Air Act in 1990. The EPA now requires the fuel mixture in parts of 16 different states, including the metro areas around New York City, Chicago, Houston, Dallas and Washington, D.C. California requires reformulated gasoline under a more stringent set of state-level regulations. About 25 percent of gasoline sold in the U.S. is reformulated, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

If either party to this action should die before the jointly held community property is divided, the language in the deed that characterizes how title is held (i.e., joint tenancy, tenants in common, or community property) will be controlling, and not the community property presumption.

Suncor Energy, a Canadian oil and gas company, operates the only oil and gas refinery in Colorado. A spokesperson for the company said the facility is prepared to make re formulated gas for the summer of 2024. It expects to spend $36 million to reconfigure the refinery to make theTheblend.EPA would require the fuel across the northern Front Range ozone nonattainment area, which includes portions of eight counties stretching from Greeley to Castle Rock.Michael Paules, a Colorado-based associate director with the Ameri can Petroleum Institute, said Sun cor likely wouldn’t be able to meet the demand for the cleaner gaso line on its own. If the fuel mixture can’t be piped in from other states, he expects the Front Range could periodically experience higher prices than the rest of the state.

“To call out one particular strat egy on its own and have confidence that it actually is 0.1 part per bil lion? It is not really a number that I strongly support,” Silverstein said.Where would the reformulated fuel come from? And where would it be required to be sold?

Brighton Standard Blade September 8, 2022 * 3 Could Colorado get any sort of exception from the reformulated gas requirement? The possibility of a waiver and delay is unlikely. After a string of hazy summers along the Front Range, the federal government is set to reclassify the region as a “severe” nonat tainment area under a 2008 ozone standard. EPA regional spokesper son Richard Mylott said there’s no ambiguity in federal law: Any region earning the classification must sell reformulated gas. “The Clean Air Act does not pro vide for either a delay or a waiver of this statutory obligation,” Mylott said. But the governor’s office insists there’s some flexibility. State air quality officials have noted the EPA allowed Atlanta to avoid the reformulated gasoline require ment in 2014. While that’s ac curate, the Atlanta region had recently improved local ozone pollution enough to lose its desig nation as a “severe” ozone nonat tainment area. Want more climate-related news from Colorado Public Radio? Sign up for our free climate e-mail newsletter.Meanwhile, environmental ad vocates are frustrated the gover nor’s office is now trying to skirt the requirement. Jeremy Nichols, director of the climate and energy program for WildEarth Guardians, said if policymakers disapproved of reformulated gas, they should have reduced ozone pollution earlier.“They had chance after chance to avoid this situation. And rather than take the steps they needed to, they blew it,” Nichols said. Didn’t Gov. Polis ask the EPA to take more aggressive ozone actions at one point? He did. In 2019, Polis withdrew a request for additional time to meet the EPA’s 2008 health-based ozone stan dard, prompting the federal agency to reclassify the region from a “moderate” to a “serious” violator of federal ozone standards. “There’s too much smog in our air, and instead of hiding behind bureaucracy and paperwork that delay action, we are moving forward to make our air cleaner now,” Polis said in a 2019 statement about the decision.

recent air pollutants conditions, the federal government would have almost certainly reclassified the region anyway, she said. Would reformulated gasoline help control ozone pollution in Colorado?Yes,but the overall effect would likely be Gasoline-poweredsmall. vehicles re lease nitrogen dioxide and volatile organic compounds, two air pol lutants that can form ground-level ozone when they react in the atmo sphere amid heat and sunlight. The regional air council esti mates local sources along the Front Range emit about 500 tons of ozone precursors on an aver age summer day. Silverstein said computer models show a switch to reformulated gasoline would avoid about 5 tons of daily emissions — or 1 percent of the total. His office also ran models to see how reformulated gasoline would affect future ozone levels. It found reformulated blends would lower average ozone concentrations by 0.1 parts per billion, a tiny fraction of the 75 parts per billion federal standard the region often exceeds eachThesummer.Polisadministration refer enced the result in its statement questioning the gasoline require ment. Silverstein, however, isn’t confident in the number. He said the air quality model is not precise enough to explain the effect of individual policies, whether it’s reformulated gasoline or stricter regulations on drilling sites.
