WHY IS VALENTINE’S DAY CELEBRATED ON FEBRUARY 14TH?

Automotive _____________________7

Sweethearts who want to keep their relationships running strong know that Valentine’s Day is celebrated each year on February 14. But even the most ardent Valentine’s Day enthusiast might not know just why this day designed for lovers to express their affections for one another is celebrated in mid-February.

According to the Library of Congress, it’s hard to pinpoint exactly why Valentine’s Day is celebrated on February 14, though the date might have ties to the ancient Roman celebration of Lupercalia. Lupercalia was a spring festival celebrated each year on February 15. The holiday was moved to February 14 after the spread of Christianity. The Christian faith had several early martyrs named Valentine, and each of them were celebrated with a saint day on February 14. But the unique history of Valentine’s Day and its association with February 14 as well as its romantic sentiments does not end there.

The Library of Congress also notes that, in the Middle Ages, people believed birds selected their mates on February 14. As a result, it was not uncommon for lovers to recite prose to one another on this date.

Love in A  e Right Places

Finding

BY A M A N DA D U D E K

I

t was the summer of 2018, more than an entire year before the word “pandemic,” became a part of our daily vocabulary.

One woman, yours truly, was about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime, changing careers to pursue the dream of writing full-time. I expected it to be exciting. I expected it to be challenging, full of new experiences and opportunities. It has been all that and more. What I never expected, however, is how much writing the Genesee Valley Penny Saver’s weekly Hometown Stories would teach me about love.

• Take Helen Serafi ne, for example. Helen is the owner of the Angry Rooster Café in Caledonia, a business from which she continuously serves the community around her. Last year alone, she hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for area friends in need. She also created the Little Food Pantry in the alley next to her café where people can come at any time to select or drop off food items. Still, Helen saw more needs to meet.

• In Brockport, the Community Hygiene Bank (CHB), which has served the area since March 2017, became even more essential with the advent of Covid-19. The CHB provides personal hygiene and household cleanliness items to struggling families and individuals while offering prayer for all those who ask. Even when cleaning items became scarce, CHB continued to offer them at their events. In its new home at Jubilee Christian Church in Brockport, CHB has grown from serving 11 families to now serving approximately 150 families. Providing for one’s neighbors: that is love.

• Further south, Tina Markle, founder of Your Centers Dansville, goes above and beyond for those around her. Your Centers Day Respite Program specializes in helping individuals requiring managed long-term care. However, the doors are open to everyone and serve breakfast, lunch, and snacks. Tina is a support for local elderly, disabled, and shut-in individuals, particularly during Covid-19. She personally delivered groceries to many people who could not come out and shop for themselves, often responding to calls from morning until evening.

Recently, Tina opened a clothing “store” to help struggling families. She also organized a collection of goods for flooded communities last fall. Giving freely of yourself to those around you: that is love.

A gift tree, offered by Helen during the holidays, presented neighbors with the opportunity to play Santa Claus to others during the recent holiday season. Helen has also established (and continues to support) a “coat tree” as well as a container of winter wear such as hats, scarves, and gloves in front of her restaurant. As her sister, Mary Serafi ne put it, “If someone needs something, she is there.

They don’t have to ask; she just does it.” Serving those in need: that is love.

• Further west in Batavia, meet Senior Wishes. Th is organization serves a vulnerable and too often forgotten segment of our population: our elderly friends, family, and neighbors. According to Wendy Miller Backman, Senior Wishes Executive Director, “Senior Wishes was created to recognize that our aging seniors still have things they want to do, places they want to go, or people they want to see. We transform those dreams into a reality.”

Senior Wishes has granted many hundreds of requests. For Leonard, an 81-year old Army Veteran who hasn’t been on a boat in 20 years, a Senior Wish meant one more time holding a fishing pole in his hand and feeling the lake breezes on his face. For Charles, a WWII Army Veteran who had wanted to see his cousin in Oakland, CA for some time, a Senior Wish meant a very special reunion after 10 years apart. Finally, for 89-year-old WWII Veteran Marco, who has been a fan of the L.A. Dodgers for as long as he can remember, a Senior Wish meant a trip to Cleveland to watch his beloved Dodgers play the Indians. Caring for our elderly: that is love.

• Sometimes, love is so powerful, it creates a miracle. The shutdown across all New York schools due to the Covid-19 pandemic had prevented St. Agnes School of Avon from holding three of its major fundraisers as the 2019-2020 school year was coming to a close. On April 27th in the face of a budget deficit, it seemed likely the recommendation going forward on May 8th would be for the school’s closure.

“The next day, we formed a task force, and on April 29th, we put up a GoFundMe,” Principal Jensen explained. “Within three days, we had raised $100,000 thanks to community members, alumni, current and former parents of students, teachers, and even students, which was so sweet.” On May 6th, just ten short days after the St. Agnes School stood on the brink of closure, Father Michael presented the Bishop with a letter recommending that Avon’s St. Agnes School remain open.

“The community rallied around our school,” Jensen said. “Our drive encouraged others to be ‘a light in the darkness…’ they lit up our sky!” Preserving local treasures like St. Agnes School: that is love.

These represent only a handful of the stories that have poured out from across our region and into our pages over the past three years. Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to recognize that our communities are fi lled to overflowing with generous people and organizations. Love may not always make the news, but it makes our towns incredible places to be.

Serving for a Centennial Series Rotary defines itself as a service organization encompassed of business and professional leaders who conduct humanitarian projects, encourage high ethical standards and work towards world understanding and peace.

It all started with one man, Paul Harris, a Chicago attorney. He formed the first Club in 1905 with the idea of professionals with diverse backgrounds who could exchange ideas and form friendships, and address the challenges in their own communities and around the world.

PAST

In 1922, Dansville Rotary Club became one of 51 organized clubs and was Chartered by the Elmira Rotary Club in what was called “The Merry Month of May.” The first meeting was held at the Foster Hotel in Dansville.

The first community project the club undertook was sponsoring a playground and swimming pool in the amount of $4,500, which was the birth of the Rotary Field, now known as Babcock Park. The park was fully deeded to the Village in May of 1925.

Dansville Rotary Club has also sponsored three clubs: Perry in 1924, Geneseo in 1925 and Nunda in 1928.

PRESENT

The Dansville Club currently has 39 members. We are always open to welcome new members. If you are interested, contact one of the members to get some information.

The club just finished their “Stove Project,” which is an international project to help the many people who still cook over an open flame in their homes.

We purchased 100 of these special stoves to transform their one room huts into an efficient, safe place with less pollution and smoke in the home, along with using 50% less wood.

The club also made its second of five installments for the committed $25,000 for the 3rd floor renovation of the UR/Noyes Hospital in memory of our fellow Rotarian, Jon Shay.

The Annual Trivia Night will be held February 19th at the Dansville Community Center. We are ready for laughs and fun with friends!

If you couldn’t join us this year, mark your calendar for 2023!

We are proud to announce the February Rotary Business of the Month - Empire Realty. We appreciate the support Empire Realty gives us throughout the year.

Currently, the club is working on a project with the Dansville Lions Club for the gym and daycare expansion at the Four Square Church. Also in the process of purchasing exercise equipment for Babcock Park.

So far this year we celebrate the following Member Anniversaries: Tom Wamp, Jan. 20, 30yrs • Ruth Boss, Jan. 24, 5yrs Jennifer Howe, Jan. 29, 9yrs • Jim Day, Feb. 1, 28yrs Dorothy Hotchkiss, Feb. 5, 31yrs • Teresa Dearing, Feb. 5, 31yrs Terry Muchler, Feb. 15, 22yrs • John Skilling, Feb. 17, 24yrs Abigail Hurlburt, Feb. 23, 1yr

FUTURE

As the Club looks forward to Spring months we will be planning our Annual Spring Road Side Clean Up. We invite and encourage community members and other organizations to join us to help make our town look the best it can. Along with this we have adopted a Main Street planter that is waiting for bright colorful blooms to be planted this Spring.

The Rotary Club is a proud supporter of the Dansville Gliders Baseball team. Nothing says Spring like a baseball game! We hope everyone in the community has a chance to catch a game.

“Founded in 1922, Dansville Rotary Club supports its Community through Service, Fellowship, Diversity, Integrity, and Leadership” GENESEE VALLEY PENNY SAVER

Practice Safe Driving

AUTO SECTION

According to the Federal Highw ay Adm inistration, crashes on snow y and icy pavem ent result in m ore than 1,300 deaths and 116,000 injuries each year. Winter driving can be tricky and requires a driver’s full attention, so protect yourself and your fam ily this year by altering your driving techniques. When a road is slick, avoid using cruise control to ensure you have full control over the vehicle’s speed at all tim es. It’s also im portant to never slam on the brakes, as this w ill cause a vehicle to skid and lose control. Instead, brake gently. Additionally, give yourself extra travel tim e and patience this season. By doing so, you’ll be sure to keep you and your fam ily safer during harsh driving conditions.

Vary workouts and exercise regularly. Varying workouts is a good idea because doing so can prevent repetitive-use injuries and prevent overuse of muscles.

Repetitive-use injuries such as shin splints and tendinitis require extended rest to heal, and that can derail your routine and nullify your progress. Vary workouts so you are not always working the same muscles, and don’t mistake varying workouts for varying workout schedules.

Working out five days one week and one day the next increases your risk of injury.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Serving Our Community for over 20 years.

Drug Use and Hepatitis C

Discover the Human Touch in Hearing Technology

Sue DeBruyne, Au.D. Doctor of Audiology

---

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 35-year-old white male who was a drug addict from the age of 14 until 32. You name it, I took it. About three years ago, I quit drugs and have lived a healthy lifestyle since. I do not drink alcohol, and I smoke one or two cigarettes a day. Three years ago, I was tested for hepatitis and was told the results were negative. About two weeks ago, I was tested and found to have hepatitis C. The results were “HCV RNA Quantitative real time PCR 8010 (high) and log 3.90 (high).” These results were given to me by a nurse without explanation other than to see a specialist. Further physician visits were denied by my insurance. I have no idea what this means, or what I need to do. I have no symptoms or discomfort at this time. What happens if this condition goes untreated? -- Anon.

ANSWER: First of all, congratulations on quitting almost everything. That was the best thing you could have done for your health.

Now you have to deal with a complication of drug use, particularly injection drug use: hepatitis C. Hepatitis C is a slow-acting virus that affects the liver. The course of hepatitis C is variable. Some people have a very aggressive virus, which without treatment can cause permanent liver damage, ultimately leading to cirrhosis and sometimes cancer of the liver. Others have a much more benign course with no evidence of liver damage, even after many years with the virus.

Your viral load, a measure of how much virus is in the blood, is fairly low. However, you absolutely should still go see a specialist. This is usually a hepatologist or infectious disease doctor, who has special expertise in treating hepatitis C. They will do additional blood testing, and probably a noninvasive scan of the liver to look for fibrosis, to determine whether there has been damage and the urgency of treatment.

Treatment for hepatitis C is so good now (97% or more effective) and the side effects of the new drugs are so mild that most experts treat someone with even very benign disease. Treatment courses are sometimes shorter for people with mild disease and without scarring of the liver.

Your insurance company is absolutely in the wrong to deny a visit with the specialist, and that decision needs to be appealed, preferably by your primary care doctor.

In the meantime, continue to avoid alcohol, and do not take more than six regular strength (or four extra strength) Tylenol a day. You also should be sure to have immunizations to hepatitis A and B, if you are not already immune.

HELPFUL INSECTS Plants depend on insects to transfer pollen as they forage, and many insects are quite beneficial to have around. While some pollinate, others are predators of other pests.

• Antlion: A foe of ants, they’ll help eat and control ant populations and pollinate flowers. They pose no threat to humans, either.

• Big dipper firefly: These colorful insects feast on earthworms, slugs and snails during the larval stage. Fireflies add drama to evening gardens with their twinkling lights.

• Garden spiders: Although some spiders can be venomous, many are quite handy to have around the garden. They’ll help control pest populations that can damage plants and crops.

• Dragonflies: These arial artists that zip around the yard are consuming smaller insects that would otherwise pester plants and humans.

• Blue-winged wasp: This wasp attacks the larvae of Japanese beetles, helping to control beetle populations.

• Bees and butterflies: Butterflies and bees are some of the best pollinators out there, and each can add whimsy to gardens.

Bamboo grows naturally, which should appeal to homeowners who want their homes to have as little negative impact on the environment as possible.

Bamboo provides ample privacy and comes in various styles. Homeowners should consult with a fencing specialist before choosing a style so they can be certain they choose the most climate-appropriate option.

OTHER CARE FOR TOOLS PROPERLY

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Training Your Cat May Save Its Life DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Is it possible to teach a cat to come when you call? I have a 2-year-old gray cat, Billy, who sometimes gets past my feet and runs out the door. I worry that he will get run over by a car or attacked by a coyote. He will look at me when I call, but that is it.

-- Kelly in Fort Myers, Florida

Homeowners often choose to save money and learn valuable skills by doing their own home improvement projects. These minor or major renovations are made much more successful by having the right tools for the job.

Investing in good tools can be smart, but those tools are only effective if they are accessible and in good repair. Homeowners who emphasize taking care of their tools can make DIY projects that much easier and more rewarding.

DEAR KELLY: You can teach cats to respond to certain commands, and calling them is one of those commands. I know that Billy can learn to do it, because he clearly recognizes your voice. He just doesn’t see the value in returning to you right away.

So it’s important to help Billy “see” the value in returning when you call! You do this through training that uses positive reinforcement -- a favorite treat or food. Here’s how: * Come up with a noise that you can make just before Billy gets a treat or dinner. A whistle, a clucking noise, even a little song. * Just before you open his can of food or treat bag, make that noise.

Do it at every feeding and treat time. * Set aside five minutes, twice a day, for reinforcement training. * During training, make the noise, wait for Billy to respond, then give him a treat. Back up a couple of feet and repeat. * Gradually increase the distance during each session until Billy comes running when you call.

Once Billy associates that specific noise with a reward, he’ll come back every time you call. Make sure to always reward him when he comes, even if it’s just lots of praise.

He’ll be far less likely to stay out if he escapes, and you’ll have much greater peace of mind.

You can learn this technique: https://www.rd.com/list/how-totrain-a-cat/.

BEAT CABIN FEVER WITH WINTER RENOVATIONS When the weather outside is frightful, homeowners and renters can turn their interior spaces into something delightful. Residents can banish feelings of cabin fever by using time spent inside to make subtle or even substantial improvements to their living areas.

Individuals may find that winter is a great time to tackle delayed or unfinished projects or to put plans for major renovations in motion.

Homeowners may find that they have some extra time on their hands when weather and early evening darkness reduces how much time they can spend outdoors.

One of the easiest ways to transform the look of a room is with a fresh coat of paint. Painting a room or rooms is an inexpensive project that can be completed over the course of a single weekend. Painting in lighter colors can help illuminate dark spaces and make a home feel more vivid and inviting, especially during the winter. And painting need not be reserved for walls only. Homeowners may want to sand and paint furniture to give items a trendy arts-and-crafts feel.

Address drafts and other inefficiencies. Colder temperatures alert homeowners to drafts, leaks and even insect or rodent infiltration.

Homeowners can scout out rooms and remedy situations.

Organize the home. Rainy or snowy days are great moments to address organizational issues, such as messy mudrooms or cluttered kitchens. Get a jump-start on spring cleaning before the warm weather arrives.

The tradition of gifting chocolate is anything but new. Chocolate and other sweet treats have been offered for centuries as prized gifts. Even ancient Aztecs and Mayans celebrated chocolate and saw it as a hot commodity.

Drinks made of cacao beans would be given as presents to people of high status. Chocolate also would be offered to the gods as a token of appreciation.

Cacao beans were even used as a form of currency at one point.

On the third Monday in February, Americans stop to remember the contributions of the many great leaders who have served as President of the United States.

Certain Presidents’ Day traditions have developed over the years, including an opportunity for shoppers to find great deals on a host of items.

Originally established in 1885 to recognize President George Washington, the day we now know as Presidents’ Day was then known as Washington’s Birthday and was traditionally celebrated on February 22. The holiday became known as Presidents’ Day after it was moved to the third Monday in accordance with the Uniform Monday Holiday Act, which enabled the nation’s workers to enjoy more threeday weekends. In addition, the Uniform Monday Holiday Act served as a way to combine the celebration of Washington’s birthday and Abraham Lincoln’s birthday, which is February 12.

SENIOR NEWS By Matilda Charles

Is a Part B Premium Cutback Coming?

By now we know just how much our Social Security checks are going to be for this year, after the deductions for Part B. The average dollar increase is $92 per month for singles. The Part B deduction has gone up $21.60, mostly due to the price of the new Alzheimer’s drug, Aduhelm, for a total of $170 per month. The drug costs $56,000 per patient per year. And we’re all going to pay for it, whether we need it or not.

The news now is that the price of that drug has been cut in half, to $28,200 per year, after pressure was brought to bear on the manufacturer when it was revealed that Medicare might not pay for it at all. Additional pressure came from doctors who were suspicious the drug didn’t actually work and who wanted their own tests run on it. Since it must be given via IV in the hospital or doctor’s office, it falls under Part B instead of the Part D drug plan.

Hot off the press is a proposal that Medicare will cover the drug -but only for those in randomized controlled clinical trials that will settle once and for all the question about whether the drug actually works. They’ll likely have a decision on that proposal in April.

And what of our Part B costs, given the lowered cost of Aduhelm?

Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra ordered Medicare to look again at the premium we’re being charged for 2022. There is the smallest chance it might be lowered, which has never been done before.

Last year it was estimated that our Part B premium would be $158.50 this year. If that $170 is cut back to that amount, it would net us an extra $11.50 per month. What shall we spend it on? (c) 2022 King Features Synd., Inc.

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

ROMANTICALLYNAMED LOCALES AROUND THE WORLD

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson * If your dog likes a treat of moistened dry food from time to time, use the water from cooking vegetables. It has a bit of flavor and some vitamins, too!

ALTERNATIVES TO COMMON VALENTINE’S GIFTS Traditional: Stuffed animal | Alternative: Adopted animal There are only so many stuffed animals, particularly fuzzy teddy bears, an adult can collect. Instead, why not adopt a shelter animal or donate to an animal rights organization? Before gifting a pet, confirm the recipient is on board with the idea. A pet is a years-long emotional and financial commitment that requires forethought and planning.

* “A tip for banana peels: Dry until crispy and break into small pieces.

Put in blender and blend to powder.

Store in an airtight container to sprinkle around base of houseplants before watering. Orchids love them -- it’s great free fertilizer.” -- B.C. in New Hampshire * “Unmatched socks are handydandy cleaners and have so many uses. Keep one by the dryer to get all the lint off the trap. Shake it out or pop it into the wash when needed. * If you have lots of outdoor or feral cats in your area, here is some good advice, given to me by my grandmother: Start your car with a bang -- on the hood, that is. When the overnight temperature dips, cats know to find someplace that is wind-shielded and off the ground, and sometimes that means they will climb up into your engine area to hunker down. If your car starts while they’re there, they can be hurt or even killed. Give the hood a good knock to let a cat know to get out quick. -- JoAnn * “After you’ve cleaned out the gliders of your sliding-glass door, run over the parts with a little paraffin wax. It will protect the moving parts and quiet the door.”

-- P.J. in Oregon * If you have trouble threading a needle because the fibers seem to go in all directions, here’s a tip from T.I. in Illinois: Stiffen the end of thread with hairspray before threading a needle.

Little-known Facts About Abraham Lincoln In honor of Lincoln’s birthday, here are 13 facts about the man.

1. Towering over others at a height of 6 feet 4 inches tall, Lincoln remains the tallest president to hold office. It is likely his stature helped to present an air of authority during his presidency.

2. Lincoln had two romantic interests before he married Mary Todd in 1842. Lincoln was in a relationship with Ann Rutledge, who died of typhoid fever. He also courted Mary Owens for some time before they ended their relationship.

3. Lincoln was notoriously messy.

His law office was often cluttered, much to the chagrin of his partner William Herndon. It is said Lincoln kept an envelope on his desk marked, “When you can’t find it anywhere else, look into this.”

4. Lincoln was the first president to be photographed at his inauguration. His future assassin, John Wilkes Booth, can be seen in a photo standing close to the president.

5. In 1849, Lincoln obtained Patent No. 6,469 for a device that was designed to lift and keep boats afloat when they passed over a sandbar or entered shallow water.

Lincoln served as a ferry operator and flatboat pilot prior to entering politics.

6. Lincoln took his dreams seriously and was purported to be interested in psychic research and activities. Before his election to the presidency, Lincoln said he was startled by a vision of a double image of himself. The second image was pale, according to accounts. His wife was led to believe the vision meant Lincoln would be elected to two terms as president and die during the second.

7. Lincoln’s beard is almost as famous as the man. He was urged by advisors to grow a beard during his first term to soften some of his harsh features.

8. Lincoln was born to Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks. Actor Tom Hanks is a distant relative of the former president.

9. Despite his stature, Lincoln apparently had a high-pitched voice and not a deep timbre.

10. Lincoln wore a size 14 shoe.

11. According to reports by his personal secretary John Hay, Lincoln would sometimes pace the White House because of insomnia.

He would keep Hay up with funny stories or with readings of Shakespeare.

12. Lincoln accepted a challenge to a duel with James Shields, a state auditor.

Lincoln chose a broadsword as the weapon, but Shields decided to work through his differences with Lincoln amicably rather than face him in the duel.

13. The contents of Lincoln’s pockets on the night he was killed were not revealed until February 12, 1976.

DID YOU KNOW? According to Mental Health America, individuals’ reactions to the death of a loved one can elicit unique emotions linked to their relationship to the deceased. For example, MHA, a community-based nonprofit focused on promoting mental health, notes that a child’s death could inspire different feelings than the loss of an elderly spouse. When parents lose a child, that death may arouse a sense of injustice that can overwhelm the child’s parents as they contemplate lost potential, unfulfilled dreams and, in certain instances, the child’s suffering. Elderly individuals who lose a spouse may be overcome by feelings of loneliness. Recognition of these different reactions is important because it can help individuals and their support networks more effectively cope with their grief.

Livonia: At age 81, Nancy passed on February 1, 2022 at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, NY. She was born on March 29, 1940 in Warsaw, NY to the late Raymond and Katharyn (Walker) Briggs. In addition to her parents she was predeceased by her first husband, Douglas Welch and her brother, John Briggs. Survived by her husband, Christopher Rider; her daughter, Sarah (Thomas) Lauder of Plantation, FL; and granddaughters, Katharyn and Madilene Lauder. Nancy is also survived by several nieces, nephews, and many friends.

Having earned an undergraduate degree at Wilson College and her master’s degree from Alfred University, Nancy’s career spanned 35 years teaching math at Honeoye Central School. Nancy was quick to volunteer her time and resources to those in need, whether giving her time to hospice patients at Teresa House, serving in various capacities at St. Michael’s Church in Geneseo or coming to the aid of family, friends or critters. Wherever she saw the need, she gave generously. Throughout her life, she was an enthusiastic lover of the outdoors and of all of its plants and creatures. Her devotion to animals was well recognized from nurturing ill or orphaned wildlife as a rehabilitator or simply taking in another stray cat.

Nancy will be remembered for her quick witted, often whimsical sense of humor, brilliant smile and “gift of gab.” Her zeal for life was infectious and she lived her life in her “uniquely Nancy” way. We are grateful for the many unforgettable ways that her life touched and joined ours.

A private graveside service will be held in the future at Temple Hill Cemetery, Geneseo, NY. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made in her memory to the SusieQ Dog ResQ, PO Box 236, Conesus, NY 14435 or the Begin Again Horse Rescue, PO Box 28, Honeoye, NY 14471.

Jason worked at his family business, Dugan Creek Lumber, where he and his Dad, Sister, Dusty Preston and crew built it into a Western New York timber powerhouse.

Jason was passionate about the outdoors, to include family trips to Canada, hunting, fishing, and priceless time with his family at their cabin on the family farm and cottage on Conesus Lake.

S E V RA Hope for Humanity I want to give a shout out to a very special citizen that helped me in a dire time of need! This Friday morning after the dump of good ol’ Rochester snow, my car got stuck at the end of my drive way! I panicked because I had to get my prescription at Wegmans. While I was rocking my car back and forth, a friendly knock was heard on my window! There was a young man dressed in what appeared to be orange fur, cat like ears, and a beard. He jokingly said "Never fear! Snarf Maxx is here!" and he held up a shovel! As I sat in my warm car, he began shoveling the snow beneath my tires! And he wasn't bothered or distressed! He just began singing, "I'm the best!" and kept at it! He looked weird with his fur clothes, but good people are good people! No matter what they look like! Then he walked to the front of my car and told me to go in reverse and I was out!

He waved goodbye and said "Enjoy the Wonderland!"

This is a lesson to us all! Bless you Snarf Maxx! You are the best!

Auto Help This past Saturday (2/5) driving was already an adventure given the recent big snowstorm and temperatures in the teens. Then, after shopping, our adventure factor really increased when we discovered that our car battery had died. Luckily, we were able to purchase a new one just a few doors down in the same Geneseo plaza at an Auto Plus Auto Parts Store. Mark at Auto Plus generously lent us his tool kit so we could complete the old/new battery swap. Many thanks for being there when we needed you! - The Bs

Common Concerns A couple of weeks ago a reader wrote about their frustration that 42% of survey respondents were unconcerned about climate change. Most of us want our lives back and are more concerned with getting Covid behind us. The volcanic eruption in Tonga will effect the climate in one day. Earth's climate has continually changed through the millennia. There is historical evidence of this. Most us are for innovations that will improve everyone's lives. The climate change New Green Deal makes the rich richer. I will believe these politicians are serious when I see wind and solar farms in view of the playgrounds of the wealthy.

Currently, only the rural areas they don't see are marred by these eyesores. I love the planet. Let's get some real innovations all engineered in the USA.

We have Control To the person who claims that we cannot control the environment, here's a small list of the human impact on the environment that we can control: Not dumping millions of tons of oil into the ocean every time an oil rig bursts.

Smokers actually throwing away their butts every time they are done so that birds do not use them as nesting material. Not flushing medicine down the toilet so that pharmaceuticals do not end up in our water. How about the amount of microplastic that is in the ocean that is currently being eaten by us because we eat things that eat the microplastic? Pretty sure we have control over that. Using more renewable resources than natural, and allowing our wonderful environment to do its natural thing instead of forcing accelerated climate change. Hey look: control! What you wrote makes you sound extremely uneducated. Please call up a science teacher from your local high school and ask them how you can help contribute to making our environment better.

DID YOU KNOW? How households earn their income has changed dramatically over the last several decades. According to a Pew Research Centeral analysis of the Decennial Census and American Community Surveys integrated Public Use Microdata Sample files, in 1960 only fathers worked in 70 percent of American households. That figure has dropped in each ensuing decade and by 2012 fathers were the sole earners in just 31 percent of American households. While one in four households in American were dual income households in 1960, by 2012 that figure had risen to 60 percent. While those figures represent dramatic changes, the number of households in which mothers are the sole earners has not changed all that much since 1960. In 1960, mothers were the sole earners in just 2 percent of American households. Fifty-two years later 6 percent of American households featured mothers as the sole earners.

WORKING PARENTS CAN CREATE BETTER WORK-LIFE BALANCE Many working parents struggle to maintain a healthy balance between their responsibilities at work and their obligations to their families. An inability to maintain that healthy balance can have adverse effects on men and women’s careers as well as the relationships they have with their families.

A 2015 survey of more than 2,000 adults commissioned by the workplace solution provider Workfront found that 38 percent of survey participants have missed life events because of a bad work-life balance. Access to technology that means work is never too far away might contribute to poor work-life balance, as 57 percent of respondents also acknowledged feeling that technology has ruined the definition of a family dinner.

Finding a healthy balance between work and life at home may require a concerted effort on the part of working parents, but there are ways to successfully juggle a career and family.

TAKE THE FIRST STEP. Connect with great local opportunities that fit your schedule.

What a wild winter sound,— wild and weird, up among the ghostly hills.... I get up in the middle of the night to hear it. It is refreshing to the ear, and one delights to know that such wild creatures are among us. At this season Nature makes the most of every throb of life that can withstand her severity. ~ John Burroughs, “The Snow-Walkers,” 1866

DID YOU KNOW ?

January w as not alw ays the first month of the year. Earlier calendars, such as the Julian calendar used by the Romans, considered M arch the first month of the year. These calendars w ere based largely around w eather and harvest schedules, and w inter w as considered to be a time w ithout definitive months. Eventually, the calendar w as expanded at around 713 BCE to include tw o additional months so it w ould equal a standard lunar year. Romans also w ere integral in giving the months their names, and some months got their names from Roman mythology and the gods of that time, w hile others w ere named after prominent Roman emperors.

J anuary got its name from a Roman god named Janus, w ho w as c onsidered a god of transitions and beginnings. Janus w as depicted as a tw o-faced god, w hic h is appropriate in the present-day sinc e J anuary represents a time of saying goodbye to the old year and looking ahead to the new year.
