SENIOR NEWS LINE

By Matilda Charles

AI-assisted scams against seniors It’s not that scammers are getting smarter, but they have a new tool now: AI, artificial intelligence. For our own protection, we need to learn about AI and how to avoid becoming a victim of fraud.

If you’ve posted any pictures on social media, take them down.

Make it your task for January to remove any photos you’ve put up, especially if -- heaven forbid -- there are snaps of your children and grandchildren.

If you routinely attach photos in emails to friends and family, and if they tend to post those on their own social media, ask them to remove the pictures. If they don’t comply, stop sending them photos. I know, that’s harsh. But you have to protect yourself and those dear to you.

Photos are the tip of the iceberg, however. Consider what scammers can do with innocent information about a vacation you took. They can personalize their scam against you and pretend to have met you on that trip. If you’ve posted the names of family members, or even the name of your dog, they can pretend to actually know you. It will sound so innocent if they then ask for your home address or the correct spelling of your name so they can send you a souvenir.

It gets worse: Scammers can clone voice samples they find online. If you’ve posted a video of a teen grandchild, scammers can convert that into a fake video call wherein the child appears to be upset and asks for help, which is another version of the grandparent scam.

One of the best sites I’ve found to learn about AI scams is McAfee’s Guide to Deepfake Scams and AI Voice Spoofing at www.mcafee. com/learn/a-guide-to-deepfake-scams-and-ai-voice-spoofing.

Also go online and search for “how scammers use AI against seniors.”

If you suspect you’ve been a victim of fraud, report it to the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center at ic3.gov.

HOW TO SUCCEED WITH YOUR NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION Be as specific as possible. In addition to being patient, being specific when deciding on a resolution can increase the likelihood that the successful pursuit of that resolution will have as positive an impact on your life as possible. For example, a nonspecific resolution to lose weight may be successful if you only shed a single pound. But men and women who resolve to lose weight typically want to lose more than one pound. By resolving to lose a predetermined and specific number of pounds, you might be more likely to commit to your goal, and more encouraged the closer you get to achieving that goal.

Morning flights tend to be less crowded and are less likely to have takeoff delays that can push kids into meltdown mode.

CROSSWORD

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Lynch Syndrome Patient Is Unsure Whether To Stop Colonoscopy

Q.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 79-year-old female who is currently on biannual infusions for osteoporosis and high cholesterol. In 2018, I was diagnosed with Lynch syndrome with an MSH6 deviation. The genetic testing was done after I had breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and a colectomy for three years in a row. Yearly colonoscopies have been included in my preventive care.

In 2022, during my colonoscopy, I experienced excessive vagal tone and needed atropine to restore my heart beat. Since this time, I have been given Robinul prior to the procedure, which has prevented another incident of bradycardia. My gastroenterologist isn’t recommending any more colonoscopies due to this cardiac issue and my age.

I have always been told that colonoscopies are necessary to prevent cancerous polyps from occurring. Is the risk of a colonoscopy under these circumstances greater than the risk of my getting colon cancer due to Lynch syndrome? -- F.M. ANSWER: People with Lynch syndrome are at an increased risk for a variety of cancers, especially of the colon but also other parts of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach, small intestine, pancreas and bile duct). People with Lynch syndrome are also at an increased risk for endometrial and ovarian cancer (in women), prostate cancer (in men), and other cancers including skin and brain cancer. Gastroenterologists know that cancer of the colon can arise without a polyp.

A.

For people with Lynch syndrome, a genetic analysis is recommended.

The exact gene may help determine the optimal beginning time and frequency of a colonoscopy. The decision of when to discontinue screening via a colonoscopy is not agreed upon by experts, but clearly when the risk of performing a colonoscopy is greater than the expected benefit, it’s time to stop. This is less about reaching a certain age than it is about underlying medical conditions.

You have a slow heart rate during sedation for the colonoscopy, and it sounds as though your doctors have found a way to do the colonoscopy safely. Your lifetime risk of colon cancer, given your MSH carrier status, is estimated to be 20%, but at age 79, you have outlived much of your risk.

Most cases of colon cancer in Lynch syndrome occur before age 80.

In my opinion, both the risks of a colonoscopy and the risk of developing colon cancer are low, which means that it is difficult to make a recommendation as to which way you should go. Stopping is reasonable, but if you feel strongly that you want to continue, this is also reasonable.

This week’s puzzle answer is elsewhere in this paper.

__________ Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2025 King Features Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

Ruby & Dean

Help your pets have a very merry and safe -Christmas

Ruby and Dean are 10-month-old Scottish Fold cats who are excited for their first Christmas. While they are already spoiled, they are hoping Santa brings them more springs to play with because they hide them so well no one can find them. When they aren’t playing, they are either snuggling up with their human sisters or “keeping watch” in their tower.

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: This is the first Christmas for my puppy “Max,” who is 5 months old. My mom always has a lot of activities and decorates the house all over, and I’m worried that Max will eat decorations or food. How can I keep him safe? -- Jayde S., Brooklyn DEAR JAYDE: Excellent job keeping Max’s safety first and foremost in your mind! The holidays can be a perilous time for curious puppies. Here are a few ways to maximize his safety while celebrating.

Talk to your family. Sit down with them and explain that decorations, food and treats need to be placed out of your dog’s reach.

Reinforce basic obedience skills. Work with Max on recall commands and behavioral training.

Stay on schedule. The holidays are super busy, but it is important to keep Max on his regular daily schedule of walks, feeding and training.

Store dog food and treats securely. The pantry often sits open during holiday preparations. Make sure Max can’t get into his dog food and overeat, causing serious complications like bloat.

Create a “safe room” for Max during holiday events. Parties, dinners and the fun of unwrapping gifts can all overstimulate a young dog. During the height of festivities, place Max in a quiet room with his favorite toys and bedding. When the wrapping paper is cleaned up, bring Max out to greet everyone.

Note behavioral patterns for later. Keep an eye on how Max behaves during this strange, exciting time of year. Is he reactive toward strangers or shiny, unfamiliar things? Do you have a difficult time getting him to obey commands? Resolve to work with Max on these issues after the holidays.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT GREYHOUNDS Greyhounds are very fast. Some retired racing greyhounds can hit speeds as high as 45 miles per hour. While they only achieve such speeds for very short periods of time, that’s still pretty fast.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT GREYHOUNDS Retired racing greyhounds are people-friendly. Despite what their love of running may suggest, retired racing greyhounds are very sociable and typically get along great with both adults and children. Many retired racing greyhounds have been handled by trainers, dog walkers, veterinarians, and others since they were very young. That exposure to humans has made them very sociable.

We would like to thank the couple who came to our aid at Home Depot a couple of weeks ago. My husband was in need of an ambulance. This wonderful couple called 911 and stayed with us until help arrived. We were so sorry we did not get your names but wanted to thank you for your kindness. My husband is doing great! You truly are angels.

$ank You and Please!

Thank you to everyone who donates to local food pantries. Your generosity and community spirit is appreciated now more than ever. Please also consider donating dog and cat food as hungry families also often have hungry pets. If the food pantry in your area doesn't accept pet food, please donate it to Lollypop Farm in Fairport or Rochester Animal Services downtown. Both have pet food pantries that help families continue to care for and keep their pets.

Thank you!

Chris+as -uck It’s a joy to see the truck decorated with all the Christmas lights on it, driving around the Batavia and Attica area. It brightens our Christmas holiday. What a beautiful job. Thanks, and keep trucking.

OTHER STORING TOOLS PROPERLY REDUCES INJURY RISK AND PROMOTES ORGANIZATION Whether homeowners have a handful of tools or an entire collection of equipment, proper storage of these items means the difference between staying organized and safe or having to waste time looking for tools and running the risk of injury.

Tools often gravitate to other rooms of the house or become misplaced.

When they’re brought out for use, tools may not be returned to the toolbox or shed, taking up residence in drawers or closets or just being left out in the open.

Improper storage of tools also may create safety risks for the persons doing the renovation and other members of the household. The Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that hundreds of thousands of injuries treated at emergency rooms are related to power tools and workshop equipment. While the majority of these injuries occur while using the tools, improper tool storage can still cause injury.

By taking care of tools and keeping them orderly, homeowners can lengthen the life expectancy of their tools and reduce the likelihood of tool-related injury.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO HELP RESOLUTIONS STICK THIS YEAR

Fair Housing Statement

Practice self-control in all aspects of life. Some researchers believe that the self-control necessary to help people maintain their resolutions is like a muscle that needs to be exercised. When selfcontrol is revved up across many different activities, it’s easy to realize one particular resolution.

For example, in an experiment at the University of Albany, researchers asked 122 smokers who were trying to quit to practice extra self-control for two weeks, either by avoiding sweets or by squeezing on a grip strengthener for as long as they could twice a day. Twenty-seven percent of those who were diligent about practicing their self-control exercise successfully kicked their cigarette habit in the following month, compared with just 12 percent of volunteers who didn’t maximize self-control.

SEPTIC TANK PUMPING

What Expecting Parents Can Do To Make Their Homes Safer • Conceal cables and cords. Cable and cord concealers are inexpensive and easily installed. Often used to cover cords hanging down from mounted televisions, concealers also can be used to hide cords coming from computers, lamps and other items that can pose a threat to young children.

• Avoid hand-me-down kids’ furniture. The older a piece of furniture is, the less likely it is that the item will meet current safety guidelines. Some parents may be tempted to let their children sleep in the same crib they slept in as kids decades ago, but it’s safer to eschew nostalgia in favor of products that meet the latest safety standards.

• Get rid of potential choking hazards. Prior to bringing their babies home, expecting parents can remove all small trinkets and other items that curious children may want to put in their mouths. When buying toys for kids, read the packaging to make sure each item is safe for babies and avoid buying or accepting any gifts with small pieces.

• Store all medicines on high shelves behind cabinet doors.

Vitamins and medicines should be stored on high shelves behind cabinet doors. If kids can see them, they’ll likely try to grab them.

Hiding medicines on high shelves behind closed cabinet doors reduces the risk that kids will be poisoned and suffer a fallrelated injury.

World War II Airman, Staff Sgt. John A. Pagliuso Returned Home to Lyons Last Month SUBMITTED BY THE DEFENSE POW/MIA ACCOUNTING AGENCY EDITED AND BOLSTERED BY SUZIE WELLS

The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) announced that U.S. Army Air Forces Staff Sgt. John A. Pagliuso, 24, of Lyons, New York, killed during World War II, was accounted for on March 17, 2025 and came home to his final resting place in Lyons in November.

In the fall of 1942, Pagliuso was assigned to the 405th Bombardment Squadron, 38th Bombardment Group. On Oct. 5th, Pagliuso was onboard a B-25 Mitchell bomber with six other crew members during a mission over Papua New Guinea. The aircraft did not return, and postwar search efforts failed to recover any remains.

“No matter how many years it takes, we recognize people who pay the ultimate sacrifice and bring them home.”

R E P R E S E N TAT I V E C L A U D I A T E N N E Y

In 1944, Australian officials recovered the remains of an unidentified service member, thought to be a U.S. aviator, from an isolated burial in a village in Papua New Guinea. Aircraft wreckage and an ID bracelet belonging to one of the missing crew members were found in the same area shortly thereafter. However, attempts to associate the remains with any of the crew members was unsuccessful.

On June 2, 1944, the remains were interred as Unknown X-6 in U.S. Armed Forces Cemetery #1B, Soputa, in Papua New Guinea, one of several temporary burial grounds for U.S. personnel during the war.

In 1947, the remains were exhumed and transported to the Central Identification Point in Manila, Philippines for potential identification. After an unsuccessful attempt, X-6 was interred at the Manila American Cemetery and Memorial (MACM).

him through those letters. Before the burial, Davis read part of one of the letters to the crowd, in which Pagliuso said, “You people back home can never realize how much we think of you all and look forward to the day when we can come home and resume our responsibilities as human beings and members of the community.”

In 2021, DPAA personnel recommended the disinterment of the Unknowns at MACM, and in December 2022, they exhumed Unknown X-6 and accessioned the remains into the DPAA Laboratory for analysis.

To identify Pagliuso’s remains, scientists from DPAA used anthropological analysis and circumstantial evidence. Additionally, scientists from the Armed Forces Medical Examiner System used mitochondrial, Y-chromosome, and autosomal DNA analysis using mitochondrial DNA from his niece, Norma Davis.

Pagliuso’s name is recorded on the Walls of the Missing at the Manila American Cemetery and Memorial, along with others still missing from WWII. A rosette will be placed next to his name to indicate he has been accounted for.

Pagliuso’s remains were buried November 7, 2025 at Lyons’ Old Elmwood Cemetery. In attendance were many local dignitaries, community members, National Guard members and the Patriot Guard Riders, all paying tribute to a local man who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

Davis reflects that the ceremony and burial were “very emotional,” and though she didn’t expect to feel such “emotion of loss and grief,” she now feels peace with Pagliuso laid to rest beside his parents.

Davis says the large extended family can now feel at ease, though she says, “I believe he’s been with his sisters and his parents for a long time.”

At the ceremony, Representative Claudia Tenney said that in the US Armed Forces, no one gets left behind. “No matter how many years it takes, we recognize people who pay the ultimate sacrifice and bring them home.”

DPAA thanks the American Battle Monuments Commission for their partnership in this mission.

For additional information on the Defense Department’s mission to account for Americans who went missing while serving their country, visit www.dpaa.mil.

Thank you, Staff Sgt. John A. Pagliuso, and all who have served and serve in our country’s military forces.

Davis said her Uncle John wrote to loved ones in Lyons during World War II, and though she never met him in person, she felt she was getting to know R E A D M O R E S TO R I E S AT GV PE N N YSAVE R .CO M
