TRICKS TO KEEP FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS FRESH Chill your arrangement: The experts at FTD by Design tested various theories for keeping floral arrangements fresh, including adding aspirin to the water or using sugar or concoctions that contain vodka. Sugar and vinegar served as a runner-up for long-lasting blooms, but the best solution for prolonging the flowers was putting the arrangement in the refrigerator each night for roughly eight hours.

Strings in Harmony: Ken Luk’s Journey through Music and Education

BY SUZIE WELLS

K

en Luk, a prominent figure in the Rochester area music scene, wears many hats, both in his professional career and as a musician. Ken is a lecturer of guitar at SUNY Geneseo and Alfred University, an instructor of gamelan at the Eastman School of Music, and an instructor of guitar, mandolin, and gamelan at the Eastman Community Music School. He is also a co-founder of Rochester Classical Guitar, and the Rochester Mandolin Orchestra.

Ken’s journey with different instruments began early in his life.

Ken says that while he has no memory of it, his mom says he asked for piano lessons at age 5. By the time Ken was 7, when his younger brother started violin lessons, Ken would pick up the instrument and play all the tunes his brother had learned. The brothers ended up taking violin lessons until Ken was 19 and left for college in the US. As a teenager in Hong Kong, Ken and his friends listened to a lot of Japanese rock and with inspiration to start a J-rock cover band, Ken bought a bass and his friend bought a guitar. Though his friend soon lost interest in playing, Ken borrowed his guitar and learned those parts as well. When he came to the US, circumstances inspired Ken to pursue classical guitar studies at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester.

While the classical guitar remains his primary instrument, since graduating in 2018, Ken has delved into mandolin (Brazilian choro and classical) and fingerstyle ukulele. Inspired by Annibal Augusto Sardinha (better known as Garoto), the Brazilian virtuoso on multiple plucked string instruments, Ken occasionally explores the sounds of a tenor guitar and a lap steel guitar.

Ken says he appreciates learning about the culture behind the music he plays. He acknowledges the spiritual connection he feels with certain styles he pursues. He loves collaborative music-making, emphasizing the joy of learning complex pieces with fellow musicians and the shared experience of a live performance.

One of Ken’s most notable moments as an educator occurred last Spring at SUNY Geneseo. He organized a concert for his guitar students, playing solo or in small groups. The concert culminated with an arrangement of Herbie Hancock’s “Watermelon Man,” where all 20 of his students performed as a guitar orchestra.

With his musical versatility and adaptability, Ken is deeply engaged in various musical projects, showcasing his diverse talents across the area. He is part of Mosaic Foundation, Janus Guitar Duo, Trio Ghidorah, Rosa Boemia, fivebyfive, Scatter the Mud, Rochester Mandolin Orchestra, Eastman Gamelan Ensemble, and more.

Ken has played in a variety of venues, but especially appreciates the intimate setting of the Little Theatre Café, as well as their support of a wide array of musical acts and styles.

Additionally, he enjoys playing at outdoor, family-friendly events like the Lilac Festival and Fairport Canal Days, relishing the joy of people having a good time while appreciating music.

Boemia. These mark his first serious foray into music composition, and Ken is eager to see how they resonate with audiences. Additionally, Ken is finalizing the details of the Rochester Guitar Festival, an annual classical guitar festival in April that brings international touring guitarists to perform in Rochester.

Ken Luk’s journey as a musician and educator is a testament to his passion, versatility, and dedication.

From teaching at multiple institutions to performing with various Rosa Boemia - from left to right: Bernardo groups, Ken continues Marcondes, Darien Lamen, and Ken Luk to push boundaries and explore the rich tapestry of music, creating a lasting impact on the local music scene and beyond. The future holds exciting possibilities for this multifaceted musician.

The Rochester Mandolin Orchestra will host the Classical Mandolin Society of America convention in October 2024. Attracting world class musicians to Rochester, the RMO will also present a concert, and convention participants will all present a mandolin orchestra concert (in the past convention, the orchestra has had 120+ musicians, so imagine that!). “It’s going to be a really unique event!”

Ken says. “I look forward to hosting my mandolin friends from all over the country in my hometown and presenting the classical mandolin to the Rochester general public.”

In the heat of the New Year’s Eve countdown, fueled by enthusiasm and possibly a few glasses of champagne, resolutions may roll off of the tongue. But come the morning of January 1, such resolutions may not hold the same appeal.

Between 40 and 45 percent of the American population will make a New Year’s Resolution, according to polling by researchers at the University of Scranton. Research suggests that only about 8 percent of people stick with those resolutions and achieve their goals. The outlook is similar for Canadians, 31 percent of whom set New Year’s resolutions. Among those that do, three-quarters will break them, according to a poll from Ipsos. A survey of online shoppers who visited the website FreeDeliveryLand.co.uk revealed that the average length of time a person can expect to pursue their New Year’s resolution is around three and a half weeks, or 24 days.

Maintaining resolutions can be a resolution in and of itself.

Resolutions are made and broken every year. Make this the year you realize your resolution.

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.

disease. I have heard that it is rare, but two colleagues have recently been diagnosed. We all work in a very high-stress field. -- J.H. ANSWER: Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is not at all a rare disease. It occurs in up to 10% of the population and much more frequently in women than men.

Although people can be diagnosed at a young age, it is more common at older ages. It is caused by an autoimmune reaction to different parts of the thyroid, with thyroglobulin and thyroid peroxidase antibodies commonly found. TSH receptor antibodies are found on occasion.

Hashimoto’s thyroiditis most commonly causes low thyroid levels, although there may be a period of time early in the disease where thyroid levels are high. Not everybody with antibodies will develop low thyroid levels. The thyroid is sometimes enlarged, but a careful exam will usually show that the gland is firm, showing that immune cells have infiltrated the gland.

Treatment of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis involves replacing the thyroid hormone that the gland can no longer make. The dose depends on body size to a certain extent, but needs to be adjusted based on lab results.

Most people are treated with levothyroxine, also called T4, which is the primary hormone made by the thyroid.

T4 is converted to T3 (also called triiodothyronine, the active form of the hormone) in various tissues outside the thyroid. T3 only stays in the body for a short while before it is destroyed, so a once-daily treatment with T4, which lasts longer, allows the body to convert T4 to T3.

Most people do very well with T4 treatment. A minority of people cannot efficiently make the active T3 form, in which case-combination treatment can be considered.

Unfortunately, T3 must be dosed twice daily.

It is thought that stress hormones play a role, since stress does seem to increase the risk of developing an autoimmune thyroid disease like Hashimoto’s.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2024 North America Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

DID YOU KNOW? Data from the United States Department of Justice indicates that partner violence accounted for 20 percent of all violent crime in the U.S. in 2018.

The World Health Organization defines intimate partner violence as behavior within an intimate relationship that causes physical, sexual or psychological harm. Such violence can include acts of physical aggression, sexual coercion, psychological abuse, and controlling behaviors. Violence perpetrated by both current and former spouses and partners falls under the umbrella of intimate partner violence. Domestic violence is so prevalent that the National Network to End Domestic Violence reports that it fields more than 19,000 calls on a typical day. Anyone who is a victim of domestic violence or suspects a loved one or acquaintance is being abused is urged to call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 (SAFE) or 1-800-7873224 (TTY) right away.

NOTICE

MAKE THE YEAR AHEAD CLUTTER-FREE Switch to e-statements for bank documents and utility bills. Paper is a big contributor to household clutter. That’s still the case even though many adults now pay the majority of their bills online. When given the chance to choose between paper or e-statements, opt for the latter so bills and bank statements don’t pile up on your desk or throughout your home office. If you still want to keep important bills and bank statements, download them to your computer and keep them in a designated folder on your desktop.

TO ALL VILLAGE OF GENESEO PROPERTY OWNERS/RESIDENTS/ BUSINESS OWNERS PLEASE KEEP THE SIDEWALKS CLEAR OF ICE & SNOW According to Village Code Section 105-6, no owner, occupant, tenant or other person owning or occupying any lot or premises in the Village, shall permit any snow, ice or other substance to collect or remain on any sidewalk. The Village of Geneseo plows sidewalks as a courtesy, however some accumulation still remains. The ultimate responsibility and liability for ice and snow accumulation belongs to the property owner or occupant. Please keep our sidewalks clear for our many pedestrians.

SNOW REMOVAL AND YOUR MAILBOX During significant snowstorms, the Village of Geneseo Department of Public Works, in the course of plowing, may cause occasional damage to mailboxes, either from snowplows directly or from the force of snow being thrown by the plows. If such damage is indeed caused by snow removal, it is not done intentionally, but is an unfortunate consequence of snow removal. As far as the particular agencies replacing damaged mailboxes, it must be pointed out that there is NO statutory or legal authority, which grants a property owner/resident/business owner along a public highway any right to place a mailbox in a highway right-of-way.

If a mailbox is within a village, town, county, or state right-of-way it is a courtesy to the postal service. From past experience, we have found that plastic mailboxes and/or posts do not withstand the abuse of snow from the plows hitting them; therefore they are not recommended. It is the responsibility of the resident to repair or replace the mailbox.

SNOW REMOVAL AROUND FIRE HYDRANTS Please dig out fire hydrants after heavy snowfalls throughout the winter.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

I need a home

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

Does Pet Insurance Extend to Pet Sitters?

Niko

is a 1-2y.o. 65lb Mixed breed dog. He is a strong boy but loves walks. We don’t know how he is with cats. If you are interested in more info on Niko please call

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I left my dog Shep in the care of a pet sitter for a week while I was away on business. The sitter texted me that Shep cut his paw during a walk in the nearby woods, and they took him to my veterinarian for care. Shep is doing fine now. I have pet insurance, but I don’t think it’s my responsibility to pay for this. The injury occurred while the sitter was walking him. The sitter says that injury and illness are my responsibility to cover. Who should pay? -- Bill in Chicago

Livingston County Dog Control

585-243-6740 HOUSEBREAKING PUPPIES How often a puppy will need to defecate depends on the food being fed and when meals are offered. The American Kennel Club says that most puppies will need to poop shortly after a meal, anywhere from 15 minutes to a few hours.

Puppies typically can hold urine a little longer overnight, but probably won’t be able to go the entire night without a potty break. Many pups can last around six hours from the last time they’ve gone out. An early-morning bathroom break will be needed, or consider penning the dog with puppy pads to catch the mess until the dog gains greater control over its bladder.

Penny Saver

DEAR BILL: Did the sitter give any details of how Shep was injured?

The circumstances are important. For example, if Shep was on-leash and stepped on an unexpected piece of debris in the path, that’s different than if Shep was let off-leash and was running free in the woods. But, if you normally let him off-leash in the woods and instructed the sitter that it was OK to do that, then that’s another consideration.

Talk more with the sitter to get more details. In the meantime, pay the vet and submit the reimbursement claim to the pet insurance company.

Professional sitters routinely include a statement in their contract with clients that any illness or injury is the responsibility of the client. This protects them from financial loss if something does happen. However, if they are accused of deliberately neglecting or abusing a pet in their care, that statement won’t protect them.

On this note, I’ll add that sitters should purchase liability insurance that specifically covers them and their business in case a claim is made against them -- or worse, if they’re injured while caring for someone else’s pet.

IT PAYS TO USE CRATES WHEN TRAINING PUPPIES Many dog owners, particularly those who have never before had a dog, may hesitate to employ crates to train their puppies. That’s understandable, as on the surface it can seem cruel or inhumane to confine a living animal to a cage. However, the AKC notes that dogs are den animals that naturally seek out canine caves for security. That’s true whether dog owners provide crates for their puppies or not. So while humans may see crates as cruel, dogs very likely view their crates as secure places where they can go if they get scared or feel skittish. In fact, according to the AKC, dogs’ perception of crates is one reason why dog owners typically find it relatively easy to get their dogs to adjust to crates and ultimately enjoy them.

We were able to distribute over 6,400 toys to approximately 1,900 children through our participating partners due to your generosity. Many of these children would not have been able to enjoy a Merry Christmas without your help.

Also, why didn’t they make the thing 20 feet higher than it is? Seems like they could have done a lot better job with that bridge than they did!

Would it really be so tough to change the schedule to let people get across in September, October, and April?

We need authority to step up I work at a store in my local town and in my dept. we had a bullying situation.

This person tried to ignore the individuals who would harass them, made rude comments or just blatantly gave dirty looks just to get them going. It was horrible to see them stressed or in tears because of this unnecessary drama.

This person went to the two different managers to tell them what was going on. Their response was “Just ignore it” or “I’m not a HS Principal, just figure out a way to deal with it.” ARE YOU KIDDING ME? When we first start we have to watch videos on harassment and bullying and afterwards we need to sign a paper stating that we watched it.

The video clearly states that if you are experiencing uncomfortable situations like this, the person to go to was your manager. And they have the audacity to tell them to just ignore it? Do your job as a manager and help protect the employees you’re supposed to oversee and help keep protected from situations like this!

HOW SMALL BUSINESSES CAN MAKE THE MOST OF LOCAL MARKETS Don’t overdo it. A cluttered stall at a festival or marketplace may make it difficult for consumers to browse or find what they’re looking for. NFIB® advises business owners to fill the space without it making it appear cluttered. Keep extra inventory on hand to restock displays as sales are made throughout the day.

When working with chemicals and other products that have strong odors and/or emit particulates into the air, make sure you do so in well-ventilated areas. This will help dissipate the smell and prevent inhalation of concentrated chemical substances. Masks guard against dust, pollen and some other microscopic particles and may not provide enough protection, depending on the job. The Home Depot suggests using particulate or filtration respirators when performing tasks, such as sanding, where you might be exposed to particles. Gas and vapor respirators offer protection against additional substances.

SHADE-TOLERANT PLANTS COMPLETE LANDSCAPES Plants need sunlight to thrive and grow, but some need less sunlight than others. People who find their landscapes are less supportive to sun-loving plants can choose from a variety of shade-tolerant plants, shrubs and trees.

Shade tolerance refers to a plant’s ability to withstand low levels of light.

Certain plants have adapted this feature to survive in the wild. Plants that grow at the base of forest floors, for example, will get less sunlight than others outside of the tree canopy. Such adaptations enable a wide variety of foliage to grow even though they are not exposed to much sunlight.

While sun-loving plants often have broad leaves and expend significant energy to capture sunlight for photosynthesis, shade-tolerant plants expend less energy and tend to be more efficient consumers of soil nutrients and sunlight.

Penn State Extension’s Plant and Pests division says the amount of shade a plant is growing under will directly affect the density of the foliage and the plant’s flowering and fruiting characteristics. Blending shade-tolerant plants into the landscape can be an effective use of space. Before choosing plants for an existing landscape, it’s important to assess the level of shade or sun the plants will receive.

Once homeowners understand which type of shade they are dealing with, they can then visit plant nurseries and select their plants. Most greenery comes with care instructions that include recommendations regarding the amount of shade/sunlight the plant will need to do well. If further assistance is needed, a knowledgeable employee can make suggestions based on landscape needs.

Shade-tolerant plants can make welcome additions to the landscape, offering greenery and color in the darker areas of a property.

We’ve Been Busy!

Our local family-owned business continues to grow and evolve in 2024 and we want to take this opportunity to share with you all we have going on to start the year.

Printing We’re very excited to announce our long-term investment in new printing equipment that will arrive in February. We’re incredibly grateful for the history and longevity of our current machines, which arrived in the 1980s from East Germany. But as our capabilities have grown since then, so too has our need to update how we serve you. You might notice our Penny Saver size adjust to a standard 8.5x11 magazine format in the coming weeks. You might also notice the colors, registration and overall quality of our printing improve. We’re investing in us, so that we can invest in you for many years to come.

A New Edition Coming this spring we’ll be adding a new weekly tenth edition in Wayne/Ontario counties. It will be distributed in the Macedon, Palmyra, Newark, Clifton Springs and Phelps communities.

Please help us name this new edition by going online to gvpennysaver.com/nameit.

UNDERSTANDING LIFE INSURANCE Deciding if you need coverage. While life insurance seems like the kind of thing every person should have, that’s not necessarily the case. For example, single men and women with no dependents and no tax or debt concerns generally do not need life insurance. If you are single but have tax issues or a considerable amount of debt, then a life insurance policy can be used to pay those debts upon your death. Adults with dependents, such as a spouse and/or children, should consider purchasing life insurance, which can help your surviving dependents maintain their quality of life and pay their bills in the wake of your death.

Marie L. Cascio January 17, 2024 Marie L. Cascio, age 72, of Geneseo/Mt. Morris, died Wednesday, January 17, 2024 at Highland Hospital in Rochester, NY with her daughter by her side.

Marie was born April 29, 1951 in Warsaw, NY, the daughter of Russell F. Brown and Evelyn Adeline Rice. She worked for the Campus Auxiliary Services at SUNY Geneseo until her retirement. Marie worked her way up, and retired as a supervisor.

Calling hours were held on Monday, January 22, 2024 from 4-7 PM at the Rector-Hicks Funeral Home, 111 Main St. in Geneseo where Her Funeral Service was held on Tuesday, January 23, 2024 at 11 AM, burial in Lakeview Cemetery in Groveland.

RECTOR HICKS FUNERAL HOME, INC. 111 Main St., Geneseo, NY 14437 Scott Hicks 585-243-0995

THE BENEFITS OF PREPLANNING YOUR FUNERAL Preplanning ensures your wishes are honored. Men and women who formalize their funeral plans will ensure their wishes are honored. That can give men and women peace of mind and will provide peace of mind to the loved ones they leave behind, who can attend funeral services knowing those services are being conducted in adherence to their loved one’s wishes. Even men and women who discuss their wishes for their funerals with loved ones may not have those wishes honored if they are not put in writing.

“People who matter are most aware that everyone else does, too...” ~ Malcom S. Forbes When anyone achieves a position of prestige, authority or public adulation, that person might be expected to become quite indifferent to the opinions of “ordinary people.”

This is seldom true. A few conceited snobs may be carried away with the thrill of their own fame but the people who really matter never forget that it is the high regard of the “little people” to which they owe their success. The bigger the person… the more he matters… the more likely he is to recognize the importance of the least of the rest of us.

Our staff keeps well-informed on benefits available from Social Security, Veteran’s programs, insurance and other sources. We can assist you in determining those you may qualify for.

Here’s a Tip • File this one under safety AND energy smarts: Clean the dryer vent after every load. Clean the dryer vent screen monthly with a gentle soap and water bath.

Rinse well and dry thoroughly before inserting back into your dryer.

• “I used to struggle with plastic wrap every time I tried to use it. But now, it’s a breeze since I learned to do these two things: One, keep plastic wrap in the freezer. It unrolls evenly, not one side or the other. Two, use a serrated knife to cut it instead of relying on the metal strip down the side of the box. You lay it out on the counter, and just run the knife down the edge you want to cut. Works like magic, and it’s no longer frustrating.” -- G.S. in Georgia • Store an apple or two with your potatoes to keep them from sprouting. Be sure to check them often.

“Unraveling the Long History of Hatred Towards Jews, A Journey Through Time and Prejudice”, presented by Jerry Elman, author, blogger, speaker, aims to educate attendees on the 2,500 year history of antisemitism, characterized as the world’s oldest established hate.

The Holocaust, the most tragic manifestation of this hatred, was a result of a long history of antisemitism that is often overlooked. This presentation addresses the entire history of Jewish persecution to understand and potentially end this historic hatred. It will shed light on the historical context of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, and the modern realities of rising antisemitism and the misrepresentation of Jews.

TIPS TO FIND THE RIGHT LAWYER Ask someone you trust. The ABA® notes that seeking recommendations from friends, relatives or business associates can be a great way to find a reliable lawyer.

Individuals you know who live nearby may offer advice on who to hire or even lawyers to avoid based on their own experiences, so don’t hesitate to ask around. However, the ABA® points out that no two legal cases are the same, so a lawyer who was right for a loved one’s case may not necessarily be perfect for you.
