Gift Auctions Can Successfully Raise Funds

In an effort to add some creativity to traditional fundraisers, many charitable groups have begun to rely on gift auctions. Gift auctions, sometimes referred to as a “tricky tray,” ask participants to silently bid on various prizes. Each prize is put on display and participants go around and place pre-purchased raffle tickets into bowls or bags beside the prizes. After bidding has concluded, an emcee will select a winning ticket from each collection of entries and read out the winner’s name or ticket number. Depending on how many prizes are available, gift auctions provide hours of fun.

Under §182 of the New York State Lien Law will sell at Public Auction for cash only all the personal property stored by:

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel

* On April 8, 1990, “Who killed Laura Palmer?” was the question on everyone’s mind when David Lynch’s surreal TV drama “Twin Peaks” premiered on ABC. The body of the blonde homecoming queen was found washed up on shore wrapped in plastic in the show’s opening episode.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

* By the time they have been retired for two years, 78% of former NFL players have gone bankrupt or are under financial stress because of joblessness or divorce.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Slower Heart Rates Are More Common in Athletes

DEAR DR. ROACH: I have a question about a resting heart rate, specifically when it is considered too slow for one’s health. I am a 67-year-old male who, from an early age to the present time, has always been physically active every day. Now retired, I feel a great sense of accomplishment when I work out. The endorphin boosts and benefits to my body are my daily rewards. Recently, I received a fitness watch that tracks my heart rate. My nightly sleep sessions show a range of 39-58 bpm over the past month. During a dental visit a while ago, I was told by the hygienist that she knew of an athlete who died in his sleep, and his heart rate was so slow that it just stopped. Is this possible? -- D.M.

ANSWER: This really wasn’t a great thing for the hygienist to say, as there is very little truth to it. Most people who exercise do have a slower heart rate, and it’s a good sign of a healthy heart. However, some older people can develop heart block when the electrical impulse from the natural pacemaker of the heart fails to pass to the ventricles. This is an occasional cause of sudden cardiac death.

Your heart rate suggests, to me, that it’s more likely the healthy heart rate of an athlete than it is a disease of the electrical conduction system, but a visit with your regular doctor or cardiologist can separate this through a simple electrocardiogram in most cases. Some people just have slow heart rates, but they can be treated with a pacemaker if they’re symptomatic.

HOW RISING FOOD DEMAND IS AFFECTING FARMING

Consumer waste: Food loss and waste (FLW) is a widespread issue, posing a challenge to food security. The World Bank estimates 30 percent of all food across the globe is wasted, amounting to 1.3 billion tons of food per year. The average global household wastes 74 kg of food each year, according to the United Nations Environment Programme’s 2021 Food Waste Index. Food waste is an issue that needs a solution as the world looks for ways to feed an expanding population in the decades to come.

[Local Town] PD Coverage

Thank you so much to the woman who stopped me and blessed me with gift cards at Wegmans. I have been through a rough time lately and this helped me get my medicine and a salad for lunch. You said it was “Just dollar amount” but to me that was more than I needed and then some. Please know I will pay it forward when I’m back on my feet!

I understand there is a shortage in workforce. However, [local PD] is a 24/7 agency. At a time when public safety matters the most, [local PD] needs to uphold their 24/7 coverage. If necessary, this means [Chief] and [Sergeant] should be forced to cover any shifts that are lacking coverage regardless of the day, night or holiday since [local PD] is a 24/7 agency.

(Literally and figuratively.)

A man with a mission

“BEE” Thoughtful

Every day along Rt 21 or 5&20 near Canandaigua you will likely see a gray pickup truck stopped with orange cones for safety near it. You will see an individual picking up debris and garbage along the roadside. He is not on the payroll. He is a dedicated volunteer who begins his day early and ends his day late. I live on the same street as Malcolm and see him leave in the morning, come home for lunch and return to his mission until late afternoon. So when you see him along the roadside, give a quick two honks on the horn to let him know how much you appreciate his dedication to keeping things clean on our roadways.

As most of us have heard, pollinators are in a steep decline. As one thing you can do to combat this, many reputable garden centers are selling a variety of Mason Bee houses for your yard. Have you read what bee experts say about these houses? Do your research before installing one. Mason Bees are solitary. These bee houses offer a location where eggs are laid and hatch in the equivalent of a cramped tenement. Experts describe them as an environment where diseases run rampant, and they provide an easy target for predators of bees. It’s shocking that garden centers are promoting this trend. Please, before you add one to your garden, research what entomologists say about these houses.

Here’s a Tip

* D.B. in Minnesota has this to share: “When you are going fishing and only bringing a couple of lures, use an old, empty pill container. Holds well and you won’t get poked!”

* Oranges are wonderful treats and full of delicious fiber and vitamin C. Save your peels and stash them in a net bag hanging from your rearview mirror for just a day or two. As they dry, they give off the best smell.

* Need to take pills daily? Set a reminder on your cellphone. Most have alarm functions, and it works!

UNIQUE WAYS LOCAL BUSINESSES CAN WORK TOGETHER

Change suppliers. Many partnership opportunities can be effective even if they’re less public in nature. Global supply chains were in flux during the pandemic and have yet to return to normal. That makes now a great time for local businesses to reconsider their suppliers. When doing so, look into local suppliers and let it be known that your products are locally sourced. For example, local restaurant owners can highlight the fact that their foods are sourced from local farms and manufacturers. That may impress foodies with a fondness for freshness, and also should reassure customers who want to keep as many of their dollars in the local community as possible.

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Bringing an old dog to heel

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: A er my aunt passed away, I gladly agreed to take in her dog, “Hunter,” a rather squat, obese Beagle. He’s a happy old dog of about 9 years, but my aunt gave him little to no training other than housetraining. at makes walking him -- something the vet recommended I do twice a day, in addition to a diet -- a chore. Hunter will walk a few steps, then sit down and refuse to budge. When he does feel like walking, he either tugs the leash forward or lags behind. How can I correct this? -- James T., Plano, Texas

DEAR JAMES: Hunter is not used to the new lifestyle yet, and he’s reacting in a predictable way. He’s also out of shape and probably more stressed than you think. e first thing I prescribe is patience. e second thing I’d prescribe is persistence.

You’ll want to gradually lengthen his walks. Each day, always at the same time, put Hunter on his leash and start the walk. As soon as Hunter begins to lag or tug forward, stop walking, adjust the distance so that he’s standing or sitting next to you, and start again, saying, “Heel” as you step forward.

When he sits and won’t budge, encourage him to go a few more steps by giving him a very small treat. en turn around and go home. On your next walk, repeat this encouragement, going just a little farther. See what I’m getting at? Make each walk just a tiny bit farther.

As Hunter loses weight, learns to trust you and gains confidence on the leash, he will eventually pull you along. Time, patience and consistency will do the trick.

Remembering Johnny Antonelli: A Baseball Legend and Rochester Hero

BY KAYLEE DUDA

As the vibrant city of Rochester celebrates another year of life, it’s impossible not to reminisce about the remarkable individuals who have graced our community with their talent, passion, and unwavering spirit. Today, we fondly remember one of Rochester’s most cherished sons, Johnny Antonelli, in what would have been his birthday month.

Born on April 12th, 1930 in Rochester, Johnny Antonelli’s journey from the Flower City to the bright lights of Major League Baseball exemplifies the epitome of perseverance and dedication. His legacy extends far beyond the baseball diamond, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of Rochesterians and baseball enthusiasts worldwide.

Antonelli’s domination on the mound was evident from a young age, captivating scouts with his exceptional pitching skills during his teenage years at omas Jefferson High School. A er signing with the Boston Braves in 1948, he embarked on a stellar career that saw him don the jerseys of the Milwaukee Braves, New York and San Francisco Giants, and Cleveland Indians.

However, it was during his time with the San Francisco Giants that Antonelli etched his name in baseball history. In 1954, he played a pivotal role in leading the Giants to their first World Series title since relocating from New York. His dominant performance earned him All-Star honors and the admiration of fans across the nation.

Beyond his achievements on the field, Johnny Antonelli remained a beacon of humility and integrity, embodying the values of sportsmanship and community service. Only a year a er signing for the Milwaukee Braves, Antonelli served in the United States Army for two years during the Korean War.

roughout his life, he remained deeply connected to his Rochester roots, giving back to the city that nurtured his talent and shaped his character. He was also a devoted family man, a loving husband, and a doting father. Despite the demands of his career, he always made time for his family, instilling in them the same values of hard work, determination, and compassion that defined his own life. His legacy of love and devotion continues to be cherished by his family and serves as a testament to the depth of his character both on and off the field.

In the twilight of his career, Antonelli returned to Rochester, where he continued to inspire future generations of athletes as a coach and mentor. His impact extended beyond baseball, as he devoted himself to various charitable endeavors, enriching the lives of countless individuals in the community. For a short period, he even served on the board of the Rochester Red Wings.

As we honor the memory of Johnny Antonelli, let us reflect on the values he embodied – perseverance, humility, and a steadfast commitment to excellence. His legacy serves as a reminder that

with passion and determination, anything is possible, both on and off the field.

He succumbed to cancer on February 28, 2020, at the age of 89, but his spirit lives on in the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing him as well as in the enduring legacy he leaves behind. As we celebrate his birthday, let us pay tribute to a true Rochester legend whose impact will be felt for generations to come. Johnny Antonelli will always hold a special place in our hearts.

QUALITIES TO LOOK FOR IN A POST-RETIREMENT JOB

Pressure-free: Regardless of what retirees did for a living prior to calling it a career, chances are they dealt with work-related stress. In fact, the American Stress Institute reports that 83 percent of workers in the United States suffer from work-related stress, while Statistics Canada reports that 62 percent of Canadian workers say work is their main source of stress. After a lifetime of confronting work-related stress, individuals who want to work in retirement should look for pressure-free opportunities. This is an important quality, as the ASI indicates that stress has been linked to increased rates of heart attack, hypertension and other disorders.
