Crafted from 800+ pounds of butter from Batavia’s O-AT-KA Milk Products and recycled after the fair to help power a Pavilion farm, the butter sculpture is a staple of the NYS Fair. What do you enjoy most about the annual sculpture?

- Seeing the creative new design each year

- Learning about/appreciating our state’s agriculture

- Its tradition as a Fair staple

- Taking photos/selfies with it

- Just marveling at the fact it’s all butter!

- I’m indifferent or apathetic about the butter sculpture

KEEPING IT LOCAL, TOGETHER.

Dear Readers,

Lately, it feels like the world is moving faster than ever — with constant talk about technology, artificial intelligence, and big changes coming our way. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by it all.

We want to give you a break from all the noise when you read the Penny Saver. We want to continue to curate a product that you feel good about reading, where you can learn about what’s happening with your neighbors and feel proud about living in our beautiful region. e Penny Saver has been many things to many people but the one constant for the publication has been a focus on “local.” To that end, we want to expand all that we share with you to make this the best and most useful publication. So what does this mean?

e bottom line is we want to create and share more local content. at might include stories about high school athletes, highlights of local trails and other natural gems to visit, homesteading tips, reviews of new books coming out from local authors, shared local poetry, new playground reviews, and even local generational recipe sharing! ese are just a taste of what we want to build. However, our focus will not be on hard news. Politics and police blotters have never been

our specialty, and we want to leave that type of reporting to the folks in the news who do that best.

ere is a reality to these ambitions. Costs continue to rise, especially for postage and revenue is unpredictable due to an ever-changing advertising landscape. We’ve worked hard since the pandemic to lower our costs and provide the same great service to you, but adding content to better serve readers requires more resources.

Shout Out to e Hemlock Fair

I’m Sorry

You used the center turning lane as a passing lane. I raged out and called you a bad name. You responded in kind. I should have let it go. I am sorry.

Food is Far Too Expensive

Another great fair week in Hemlock this year. Thank you to all who run the fair. My family had a wonderful time. Also a shout out to the 4-H Youth. It was great to see the animals and how well taken care of these animals were. You all did an amazing job. Can’t wait for next year’s fair.

Unbelievable Kindness

Finishing up at Canandaigua Wegmans self-checkout, I found both my credit card and my Shoppers Card were not in my purse. When I told the attendant I had cash, she directed me to the Service desk. There I was asked my name, where upon I was handed both of my cards. They had fallen out of my purse in the parking lot. (Note to self - ALWAYS ZIP YOUR PURSE.) A very good Samaritan had brought them into the store. Whoever you are - a million thanks.

Very Kind People

I was at a local Tops grocery store recently. I use the bus. Had several heavy bags in the rain that day. A stranger with a dark blue van asked if I needed a lift. Went out of her way to get me back home.

Over the past 6 months, the price of groceries has increased exponentially. A 12 oz bag of coffee cost 4 dollars more. A pound of Angus beef increased from $7.50 to $10.00. Produce is expected to increase by 40 percent because there are no longer workers to pick the crops. Times are hard and they will only become worse.

Dog Walkers with No Regards

It is great that you walk your dogs, it is good for both of you. What isn’t great is that you don’t pick up after them. And there are some that do pick up, but decide it is ok to leave the little bag on a lawn or the sidewalk. PICK UP the bag and take it home, or find a dumpster nearby, usually there are plenty of them. It is not right that you leave your mess for others to take care of!

REASONS TO SHOP FARMERS’ MARKETS

A farmers’ market can be an exciting and flavorful social gathering place for families and groups of friends, as well as a great place to meet other members of the community. Sometimes farmers also mingle with local artisans, so the market can be a one-stop-shopping locale for locally produced food and art.

The Senior Stretch

Stretching regularly can help alleviate pain, protect joints, prevent injury and maintain mobility as we age. Incorpora ng stretching sessions into your daily or weekly rou ne is a simple and effec ve way to enhance your health and well-being; a er all, you can do it anywhere, any me, without the need for any equipment. Here are a few ps to help seniors – or anyone – stretch safely:

• Warm up your muscles before stretching by walking or moving around for at least five minutes.

• Stretch gently and slowly, taking in a deep breath and exhaling as you stretch.

• Hold stretches for about 30 seconds, allowing muscles me to relax.

• Avoid bouncing while stretching, and never stretch to the point of pain.

Science-Backed Benefits of Strength Training 5

Experts generally recommend 20 to 30 minutes of strength training two or three mes per week.

Here’s why:

Preserve and build muscle.

Muscle mass diminishes with age, increasing your body fat percentage. Strength training can help turn the tables and keep body fat in check.

Strengthen bones.

Strength training increases bone density and reduces the risk of fractures and osteoporosis.

Manage weight.

Increasing your metabolism and muscle with weights helps you burn calories more efficiently.

Maintain flexibility and balance.

Weight-bearing exercise can protect your joints from injury and reduce symptoms of arthri s, while also lowering your risk of falls by improving balance.

Enhance mood and quality of life.

Strength training can help reduce symptoms of many chronic condi ons like depression, back pain, heart disease and diabetes. Research also suggests that exercise may help support cogni ve func on in older adults.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

How to pack a suitcase: Roll pants and tops, adding to suitcase first, toward the handle side. Then add heavy items (shoes, boots) toward the wheel end. Make sure you choose the right size case for the trip; too much room will cause items to shift around.

STRANGE BUT TRUE By Lucie Winborne * Pill bugs, also known as roly-polys, are not insects but rather crustaceans. They breathe through gills and are more closely related to shrimp and lobsters than other bugs.

Each numbered row contains two clues and two answers. e two answers differ from each other by only one letter, which has already been inserted. For example, if you exchange the A from MASTER for an I, you get MISTER. Do not change the order of the letters.

e grant program, formally established in 2020, builds on a legacy of community arts support that began years earlier. Judi Cermak, past president of OCAC, explains the history of those early projects: “ emoneythatwehavegivenwasn’tcalledagrant,however,itwas supportive community projects. Start up money for the Plein Air festival, FHPAC, Cheshire Grange, murals, and the Seneca Family Sculpture. e money for these projects came from an annuity that was funded by Dr. Dorothy Mariner who had been the director for the Ontario County Arts Council for many years. Her vision was to see the arts flourish throughout the county.”

Current OCAC President Joyce Kowba emphasizes the council’s mission in awarding the annual grants to provide “diverse opportunities for art participation, understanding, and appreciation.” Grants support visual and performing art projects throughout the community.

Program Director Courtney Austin says, “Paints & Rec extends sincere thanks to the Ontario County Arts Council for supporting our mission through a generous grant. eir funding gave six local youth the chance to attend our weeklong mural camp, where they learned new techniques, collaborated creatively, and built lasting friendships. With OCAC’s support, we’re helping young artists grow, express themselves, and connect through the powerofcommunityart. iskindofsupportnotonly fuelscreativitybutalsostrengthensourcommunityby investing in its future artists. We’re proud to partner with organizations like OCAC that believe in the power of the arts to inspire, connect, and empower.”

Friends of the Bristol Valley Playhouse Foundation received $1,000 to help stage e Cayuga Canal Girls in Naples. “ e Ontario County Arts Council was most generous this year, awarding Bristol Valley eater a grant to help us produce Cayuga Canal Girls,” said Joan Luther, Managing Director and Board Vice-President. “It allowed us to bring a story of the Finger Lakes to the Finger Lakes.”

Conception and childbirth are miracles of life. While parents experience many joys during pregnancy and delivery, they must discuss potentially uncomfortable conversations that need to be addressed. This includes the potential that babies will born with birth defects.

Over the last year, microcephaly, a rare but serious disability, has garnered substantial attention. Microcephaly is a neurological condition in which an infant’s head is significantly smaller than the heads of other children of the same age and sex, advises The Mayo Clinic. The condition is typically the result of the brain developing abnormally in the womb or not growing as it is supposed to after birth. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says microcephaly can be an isolated condition, or it can occur in combination with other major birth defects. Depending on the severity of the condition, children with microcephaly can face any number of symptoms. According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, symptoms of microcephaly include impaired cognitive development, delayed motor functions, dwarfism, seizures, difficulties with balance, and other neurological abnormalities.

Although microcephaly is rare, according to the National Birth Defects Prevention Network, it may become more common. That’s because microcephaly has been linked to mothers who were exposed to the Zika virus while pregnant. Exposure to in utero substance abuse, as well as genetic or chromosomal issues, also can lead to microcephaly. Dr. Nassim Zecavati, an assistant professor of pediatrics and neurology at the Georgetown University School of Medicine, says essentially anything that slows down brain growth in the womb or causes a severe deprivation of oxygen and blood flow before, during or after delivery can be problematic. Unfortunately, no treatment exists to return a child’s head and brain to normal size. Instead, treatment focuses on reducing the impact associated with neurological disabilities and subsequent physical disabilities. Early childhood intervention programs that include speech, physical and occupational therapy may be part of a child’s course of treatment. Certain medications can be prescribed to help with seizures or hyperactivity. Thanks to its link to the Zika virus, microcephaly has garnered considerable attention over the last year-plus. Though still rare, microcephaly is something expecting parents and couples planning to have children should familiarize themselves with.

Physician Bills Patient for Exam But Wasn’t in the Room for It

DEAR DR. ROACH: When I have appointments with my physicians at our local, highly rated academic health system, they no longer do a physical exam. But in the after-visit note, there is a documented and complete physical exam that doesn’t reflect reality. This happened on all types of visits, including annual visits and pre- and post-surgery visits.

If I am examined by a resident, the attending physician will attest in the aftervisit note to having examined me alongside the resident when, in actuality, the physician was not in the room. I find this appalling, but it seems to be common practice. These doctors are billing for services that they do not deliver. Do you see any effort in the medical world to respond to this? -- J.H.

Q. A.

ANSWER: The new electronic medical record systems make it easy to document a complete physical exam, sometimes with a single click. If this happens once, it’s a mistake. If it happens consistently, this is at least a system error, if not deliberate deception. The term used in the industry is “upcoding” because documentation of a complete examination allows for higher billing to the insurance company. Physicians need to be very careful not to document a physical exam that they didn’t do. A less-kind word for consistently doing this practice is “fraud.” Penalties can be up to tens of thousands of dollars per false claim.

The rules for resident supervision are complicated. In general, billing can only be done for services that are provided by or are under the direct supervision of the attending physician. There are exceptions to this, such as resident physicians who provide primary care. However, once again, saying that you were there supervising the resident when you weren’t is against the law.

Now if the attending physician comes in the room and asks questions to confirm the key findings of your medical history, they do not have to do a complete examination to fulfill the obligations for the primary care exemption.

Outside of primary care, the attending physician must be physically present for the key portions of the services that are being billed.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I saw your recent column about the wife with intractable depression.I can relate,but you barely glanced over what has been life-changing for me as a treatment: TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation).

It is quick, easy and painless, and most insurance companies (even Medicare) fully cover it.To be frank, Doc, not nearly enough suffering people have ever even heard of TMS as an option. Would you illustrate to your readers just a tad more about how powerful it can be as a treatment option? -- R.F.W.

ANSWER: Most people with depression respond well to treatment with a combination of psychotherapy and one of the standard medications, but some people need to try several medications before they find one that works for them. Unfortunately, there are people who do not get good results with medication. TMS is an option in these situations (but you don’t have to fail with multiple medications to try TMS).

Even in people who have failed with multiple medications, about 30% will have a “marked” improvement or a resolution of their symptoms. TMS doesn’t cure everybody, but I agree that it’s a therapy that needs to be more widely used. The biggest problem is that it isn’t available everywhere.

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

What is mulch?

Mulch refers to a material spread around or over a plant to enrich and/or insulate its soil. Many homeowners prefer mulch made of wood chips, which is both effective and readily available. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that organic mulches, which include leaves, wood chips, compost or grass clippings, can be used by homeowners who want to develop eco-friendly landscapes.

SENIOR NEWS LINE

Retirement regrets?

I was eavesdropping on two senior ladies in a big box store, specifically in the furniture aisle. Being discussed was a very large TV cabinet with doors and shelving. While it was on sale, the price was apparently not enticing.

“I regret not buying a big television back when I had the money for one, before I went on Social Security,” said one.

“I hear that,” replied the other one. “But my regret is moving into a place that’s too small for me to even have a big TV cabinet like this.”

And there I was, enticed. What is it we all most regret now that we’re seniors? I posed the question to AI (artificial intelligence).

Our most common regret, says AI, is that we didn’t save enough for retirement. Or that we didn’t start saving early enough in our lives.

Money was a major theme, according to AI, especially when it came to underestimating health care expenses.

For a different take on things,I turned to my local informal poll group.

The replies ranged from “I regret moving into a community with no sidewalks” to “I regret not getting a cat because now I’ve reached the cutoff age and the animal shelter won’t let me adopt a very young cat because I might die before the cat does.” The third one chuckled, “Well, I regret encouraging my son to take that job across the country because now he’s not around to do heavy lifting.” Another was serious when he replied, “I wish I’d bought a boat. It would be paid for by now. I’d head for the Bahamas.”

If you’re curious about what kinds of regrets seniors have about retirement (especially if you haven’t yet retired and have time to make a course correction in your retirement plans), do an online search for “biggest regrets of retirees,” or something similar.

e Secret of a Poet

A poet is made of love, of life and time, And tires to put his feelings into a verse that rhymes. From sunrise to sunset, the miracles that he sees, Is noticed and remember by a poet like me.

With pen in hand, to write down a verse or two, To describe to others, the wonders he sees for you.

So, each morning when you awake, just get up and smile, Just look out your window, for just a little while.

Notice the flowers and trees, bending with the breeze, And see the birds soaring in the air with ease.

Try to remember the beauty, and put them down on pad, And try to explain to others, the inspiration you had.

God has given each one of us, each a special little gi , Maybe your little words, will give someone that special li .

You will be inspired in your soul, and you will agree, You made yourself a poet, like little old me.

If you notice in the morning, the dew upon the grass, e sun emerging in the east, and the shadows that it cast. Crowning every tree with a bright and golden glow, e rainbow a er a rain, with its beautiful colored bow. Trees with their colorful leaves, swaying in the Autumn breeze,

And each little wave that reaches the shore from the foamy sea.

A butterfly fluttering, landing on a tulip bright,

A bird singing in a tree, an eagle in its flight. e mountains hued with purple, with their majesty, A background of beauty for the naked eye to see.

God has given us these wonders, for all of us to embrace, So, take the time in your day, and try to slow your pace.

To put this picture into words, how gratified you will be, Transferring beauty to others, you will be a poet like me.

Pill Time Solutions

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I read your article regarding the cat not swallowing his medications. My father taught us years ago to teach our puppies to eat wet food off a spoon. Now that the dogs are older and our vet has them on glucosamine and vitamins C and E, we put the pills with the spoonful of wet dog food and voila, they eat it! In fact they look forward to their pill time. I don’t know if the same method would work with a cat, but I would think so. -- Sharon A., via e-mail

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: After reading your column on getting cats to swallow pills, I wanted to share information about a product I found to be helpful in this regard. It is called Pill Pockets, and it is available at many veterinary hospitals and most major pet stores. The product is essentially a treat with an open side to allow the pill to be put inside and then closed up by pressing in the sides. It comes in pouches of approximately 45 treats and in different flavors like salmon and chicken.

My cat loves the treat, and it allows me to give her a pill without any hassle or stress for either of us. It is also available for dogs. Please check it out. Your readers may find this product helpful. -- Elaine B., Belmont, Calif.

DEAR SHARON AND ELAINE: Many thanks to both of you! I received several helpful tips from readers on giving medications to pets, from hiding the pills in food to ordering custom preparations from pharmacists. Sometimes a pet owner will have to try more than one method to see which works best, and I’m grateful to everyone for their suggestions.
