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.

DID YOU KNOW? When remodeling a home with the ultimate goal of making it more attractive to prospective buyers, homeowners can benefit from taking stock of current trends, including the style of home that’s most popular. According to a 2020 Homes.com survey of more than 5,000 adults across the United States, modern farmhouse is the most favored house style. The survey asked participants to choose from a selection of styles, including mid-century modern ranch, Spanish colonial/ southwest, bohemian craftsman, Italianate, French chateau, and Tudor. The modern farmhouse style was the most popular choice in 42 of the 50 states, proving that home style preference is not beholden to geography. Respondents gave a host of reasons for favoring the modern farmhouse look, including that the style is “aesthetically appealing but not boring” and that it looks “simple, cozy, and not too busy.”

Learn the tech yourself: Assistance technologies are not all one and the same. Vehicle manufacturers have their own systems and there can be a learning curve when adapting to a new one. If you aspire to teach a senior how to utilize the assistance technologies in his or her vehicle, first learn the tech on your own. If both you and your aging friend or family member own a Subaru, chances are you already know how to use the tech in your loved one’s vehicle. If you drive cars made by different manufacturers, visit the dealership where your loved one bought his or her car and ask for a quick tutorial on all the safety features in the vehicle. Salesman demonstrate these features every day, so it shouldn’t take long for them to show you the ropes. 1212

Gray or pink grass: Another indicator of winter lawn damage linked to snow is gray or pink grass. The NALP reports that this is a byproduct of snow mold caused by lingering snow. Action may be unnecessary, as the NALP notes these circular patterns often go away on their own. If not, raking the affected areas might be enough to get the lawn on the road to recovery. If the issue continues to linger after raking, a topsoil application and subsequent seeding may be necessary. Everything

SIGNS OF WINTER LAWN DAMAGE

DID YOU KNOW?

Many an amateur landscaper has encountered grubs while tending to their lawns, but even the most attentive green thumber may have a lawn infested with grubs and not know it. According to the pest and weed experts at Roundup® , grubs often go unnoticed until late summer, when they’ve already done substantial damage to a lawn. Oddly enough, one of the telltales signs of a grub infestation is not the grubs themselves but the animals looking to dine on them. Fully grown grubs make for hearty meals, so homeowners who notice raccoons, skunks, armadillos, and/or birds digging up their lawns may have a grub infestation. That’s because these unwanted guests like to dine on mature grubs who have spent summer feasting on organic matter in the soil. Another sign of a possible grub infestation is a lawn that feels spongy when stepped on. Patches of dead grass that peel back easily are a sign that grubs have eaten the roots that keep healthy grass in place.

DESIGN A GARDEN FOR ALL SENSES

The lively sounds of the garden are created by the wildlife that come to pollinate and enjoy the environment gardeners have created. By choosing indigenous plants, gardeners can be sure that insects and small critters will seek refuge within the foliage.

Songbirds also will add character to a yard. The Audubon Society suggests including a water source and a songbird border of shrubs along your property’s edge. Provide food sources and make sure they are located a fair distance from the main action of the yard so as not to scare off birds. Wait for musical chickadees, goldfinches, orioles, and cardinals to arrive and enjoy the accommodations. Seasoned Firewood

PREPARING FOR A NIGHT OUT

Plan your transportation. If a night out entails enjoying a few alcoholic beverages, then arrange for safe transportation home in advance. Utilize a ride-sharing service or taxi company; otherwise, figure out who will be the designated sober driver. Groups of friends may want to pay for the sober driver’s meal as a token of their appreciation.

Kindness Can Come to a Person When Least Expected

My wife and I are senior citizens and at 6:30pm I realized I had forgotten to go to the store to get breakfast items for the next morning. I grabbed my car keys and told my wife that I’d be back in a “jiffy.” I got to the store in 5 minutes, parked near the entrance and ran inside, gathering my few items in a “jiff.” However, there were only two checkouts with a cashier. Both of them had customers with loaded carts that they were about to unload. Also, all the self checkouts were all taken with people in line. As I got behind a woman who was about to unload all her items onto the conveyor belt, she saw me and allowed me to go ahead of her. Then as I was about to pay, the cashier said the woman behind me would pay. I thanked the lady, but declined. At home I told my wife what occurred. She stated it was probably because the lady saw me with shirt worn inside out and wrinkled with my hair sticking up.

I am tired of robot telephone servers who can rarely help me with a problem. I am tired of too few workers doing too much work and thus not readily available to assist me, whether on the phone or in person. I am tired of being placed on hold for too long. I am tired of being pressured to go paperless when in fact the paper remains at my expense. I am tired of being pressured to go cashless with everything when I am not confident that my accounts will not be compromised. People need to work! Hire enough staff to serve your customers! Stop trying to get the most profit at the expense of customers and staff! Customers will be happy, your people will be happy, your business will thrive, and perhaps America will be the nation she once was and no longer beholden to foreign nations, especially China. God will bless us once again if and when we return to being just and ethical in the workplace.

CANNABIS AND CANCER-RELATED PAIN

The National Cancer Institute notes that, while more research is necessary, small studies have indicated the potential benefits of cannabis in helping cancer patients overcome the pain associated with their disease. According to the NCI, a small study of 21 patients with chronic pain who combined vaporized cannabis with morphine experienced improved pain relief compared to patients who took only morphine. However, combining vaporized cannabis with oxycodone, a narcotic pain reliever and cough suppressant that is similar to morphine, did not produce significantly greater pain relief. In addition, two small studies indicated that delta-9-THC, the main active cannabinoid in marijuana, helped to relieve pain as well as nausea and vomiting. A second study indicated that delta-9-THC given in doses could provide pain relief similar to that provided by codeine, a pain-relieving drug derived from morphine. The NCI also cites a study that indicated a cannabis plant extract medicine effectively relieved pain when sprayed under the tongue of advanced cancer patients whose pain was not relieved by strong opioids alone. That study also indicated that some patients were able to continue to control their cancer-related pain without needing higher doses of the cannabis spray or higher doses of other pain medications they were taking.

DEAR DR. ROACH: My daughter, 45, has had a paralyzed left vocal cord for about a year now. We have been to an ear, nose and throat (ENT) doctor who ran at least a half dozen tests, including several scans. These didn’t show a reason for the problem, and everything else appeared to be normal. She had a cold before this happened, and we were treating her for a lingering sore throat.

The doctor has told us that there is nothing to be done to unfreeze the vocal cord. I would love your opinion on this matter, as she has a lot of pain associated with it, and she coughs trying to get out what feels stuck in there. -- K.P.

ANSWER: Paralysis of the vocal cord is often the result of damage to the nerve that leads to the vocal cord; there’s one on each side. The left side is particularly vulnerable and may be damaged during surgery (especially thyroid surgery), but a big fear is that a mass (especially a cancerous one) can damage the nerve and cause paralysis of the vocal cord. This is why her doctor did a CT scan.

There are other less-common causes, such as nerve damage from other occurrences (stroke and multiple sclerosis); inflammatory diseases (lupus and others); and infections (such as Lyme disease). It sounds like the ENT doctor looked for other possibilities such as these. (But if not, then it should be done.)

When a cause can’t be found, we call it “idiopathic unilateral vocal cord paralysis.” This often seems to happen after a viral infection, and it sounds like your daughter might have had one. Many people with this condition get better by themselves during the first year, but now that it has been about a year for her, she isn’t likely to get better without treatment.

I am not an expert in treatment, but ENT surgeons have several types of surgical interventions to improve hoarseness, cough and discomfort. It’s time to go back to her ENT doctor or get referred to an expert in the surgical treatment of this condition.

When tick removal goes wrong

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: A er taking my Terrier “Hank” for a walk around my subdivision yesterday, I noticed when taking off his leash that a tick had attached itself to the back of his neck! I don’t even know where it came from; we stayed on the sidewalk. I quickly tried to remove it with tweezers, but Hank is kind of a wiggly guy, and just as I tugged on the tick, he moved and the body of the tick broke off! It looks like the tick’s head is still embedded in his skin. What can I do? Will this hurt Hank? -- Joe K. in Sarasota Springs, New York

DEAR JOE: Since the tick’s body was removed, and you noticed it pretty quickly, Hank’s risk of contracting a tick-borne illness is low. However, an infection might develop where the tick’s head is still embedded.

Treat the bite spot with an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment. Monitor the spot for a few days. ere may be a little redness around the bite area as the skin reacts to the foreign object, and with luck, the head may be pushed out enough for you to grab it with the tweezers and remove.

When should you contact Hank’s veterinarian? If you aren’t able to remove the tick head a er a few days, it’s time to make an appointment with the vet. Or, if the redness spreads or if Hank seems distressed, lethargic or otherwise out of sorts, get him to the vet right away.

Removing a tick as soon as it’s found is important, because even though dogs can be vaccinated against Lyme Disease, other tick-borne diseases can be transmitted to your pet. Ticks are becoming active earlier in the year, so consider starting flea and tick prevention earlier, too.

HOW TO SUPPORT STUDENTS INTERESTED IN THE ARTS

Support school-based arts education programs.Funding for arts programs is perpetually in jeopardy. Each state and school district is different, but a 2013 report from the National Association of State Boards of Education found that federal funding for arts and humanities programs totaled roughly $250 million a year, while the National Science Foundation received around $5 billion annually. Arts and sciences are both important, and parents can support legislation that directs more federal funding for the arts while urging local legislators to direct more money to arts education.

National PLAYGROUND SAFETY WEEK

April 22–25, 2024

Playgrounds in Germany were built for childhood development, but the first purpose-built recreational area open to the public was in Manchester, England in 1859. In the 20th Century, as more vehicles rode the streets, it wasn’t safe forchildrentoplayinthelanesneartheir homes anymore. Thus, designated play areas were built to protect kids from the dangers of the road and into securedareasinstead.

One of the first recreational areas in America was built in San Francisco’s GoldenGateParkin1887.

Today, after many years of research and individualtestimonieswehaveseenhow playgrounds provide educational value andenhancephysicalhealth.

Complete playground equipment safety checks. Inspect the equipment in your local playground in your personal capacity. Raise any concerns you may have with the park’s manager or recommend any safety upgrades thatcometomind.

Cultures Learn TOGETHER in Livingston County

BY SHANNON CURLEY, TOGETHER’S PUBLIC RELATIONS VOLUNTEER

“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.” - M.Gandhi

Livingston County is home to a wealth of natural resources, namely dairy and agricultural farms that operate nonstop, similar to various manufacturing plants where goods produced in the county are shipped all over the world. e difficult, labor intensive work these industries require is o en conducted by migrants of various nationalities- including Puerto Rican, Mexican, Guatemalan, and more. ese individuals have o en sacrificed everything to create a better life for their families in the United States.

Can you imagine how this feels...

e weather and culture are very different from your native country. You do not have a driver’s license, and the nearest town is miles away. You only speak Spanish and are relieved to meet fellow Spanish speakers who work on the farm. Despite this, you o en feel alone and disconnected in this vastly different place. You miss your extended family, your food, your traditions... en a colleague tells you about a group of people who offer a safe space, a space where everyone is welcome. ey offer English classes, provide educational support for your children, and connect you to community services. ey meet at a local church and even provide transportation to these weekly gatherings.

isuniqueorganizationiscalled:CulturesLearningTOGETHER.

TOGETHER cannot forget the difficulties people face when coming to live in another country and remembers how our ancestors did the same. is is the spirit that moves us. We recognize migration as one of the most important characteristics of the United States; it is a key part of our history that helps shape our culture, policies, and economy. Migration is a great force that makes us who we are.

Growing from a community service-oriented course at SUNY Geneseo in 2015 to a full-fledged tutoring program, Cultures Learning TOGETHER now gathers community volunteers, SUNY Geneseo college students, and people in our area who speak another language and want to learn English each Saturday during the school year. More than just learning English, we learn about each other and build a sense of community and a sense of belonging. We celebrate each other’s holidays and enjoy the food of our countries. Inspired by the dedication of each TOGETHER participant, we continue to grow as a family of learners.

Next year Cultures Learning TOGETHER will celebrate our 10th anniversary. Who could have imagined that an experimental Spanish course at SUNY Geneseo would become a multi-faceted community organization? So many dreamers have been a part of this effort: students, families, migrant workers, refugees, professors, staff, retirees...

We are inspired by the hard work and commitment of a father who starts work on the farm at 4:00 AM to join his family at our English classes by 1:00 PM.

We are appreciative of a former member who, a er participating for two years, moved to a more distant farm and called to let us know how much he missed our classes and community.

We are proud of a mother who greatly improved her English skills during her time with us and began working as an interpreter when she moved back to Mexico.

Countless other stories can be told of our community: a member from Afghanistan whom we connected with a tutor in ROTC to practice military entrance tests, mentors for whom TOGETHER has been part of their vocational training as teachers and social workers, and most of all, our youngest members, the children we support through their schooling, helping them adjust to American culture, appreciate their heritage, and be proud bilinguals.

For those who have gone on to new things and those who remain with our organization, TOGETHER has been a part of each members’ life path. eir contributions form the foundation of our organization, and the community we build remains a part of their hearts. We bring people together to advocate and support one another, to learn from each other, and to develop the sense of belonging that is crucial for all human beings. It is a win-win relationship that creates benefits for every one of us: migrant workers, retirees, and college students.

All involved in TOGETHER develop language abilities and cultivate a greater understanding of one another, of different cultures, and of the various challenges and joys that unite us as global citizens seeking to “be the change we wish to see in the world.” We are a group who believes we can do more TOGETHER than we ever could imagine alone.

DAIRY DIETARY GUIDELINES

USDA guidelines encourage most individuals to consume three servings of dairy per day. The organization’s “Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2020-2025” recommend that adults consume the equivalent of three cups of dairy per day. The guidelines indicate that children should consume 21/2 cups of dairy per day, with that number increasing to three cups around the time children reach age 9.

PREPARING FOR A NIGHT OUT

Know the dress code. Dress accordingly for the destination and planned activity. The dating and socializing resource Girls Chase advises that slim, black jeans can look classy on a night out. Footwear is important as well, especially if you will be doing some walking or dancing.Women who choose to wear heels may want to stash a foldable pair of flats in their handbags in the event they need some relief.

DID YOU KNOW? If the 1927 song “I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for Ice Cream” by Howard Johnson, Billy Moll and Robert A. King is correct, then the world has been a noisy place for quite some time. Though the exact origins of ice cream are unknown, historians agree this popular treat has been around for a very, very long time. The International Dairy Foods Association says the origins of ice cream may reach as far back as the second century B.C. Though he wasn’t around back then, the fifth Roman Emperor Nero, who ruled from 54 to 68 A.D., might have been so fond of iced treats that he routinely sent runners into the Apennine Mountains to retrieve snow that he would then flavor with fruits and juices. That tale might be apocryphal, but there’s no denying ice treats have been enjoyed for a long time. And based on a 2018 report from Grand View Research, Inc. that projected the global ice cream market would reach roughly $79 billion by 2025, it’s fair to say ice cream will remain popular for a long time to come as well.

EXPLAINING PRECISION AGRICULTURE

What are some examples of PA technology? Sensors are a prime example of PA technology that helps make farms more efficient and productive. Sensors serve various functions by helping farmers gather data on the availability of water in soil, the level of compaction in soil, leaf temperature, insect and disease infestation, and other areas. Weather modeling is another component of PA that can help farms be more costeffective and efficient. Whereas in years past many farms would need to manually assess certain variables to determine when to harvest, weather modeling technology has enabled some farmers to generate remote readings, saving time and money.

HOW COUPLES CAN BENEFIT FROM HIRING LOCAL WEDDING VENDORS: Individuals who take great strides to conserve resources by reducing their energy consumption and protecting the environment often find that shopping local is beneficial. Local vendors are more likely to source their materials from other local businesses, reducing their carbon footprints along the way. For example, local caterers may rely on local farmers for their foods, affording couples the chance to host eco-friendly or even farm-to-table weddings.

Here’s a Tip

• “My roses really look beautiful. When I am cutting stems to put in a bouquet, I use a clothespin to grip the stem. It saves me from getting pricked by thorns, because it has a bit of reach to it.” -- L.E. in Georgia

• For even distribution in sowing seeds for your garden, use a saltshaker for tiny seeds. You can get a cheese shaker for larger seeds, if necessary.

• To keep your brick walkway clear of grass and weeds, sprinkle salt in the cracks.

• “If you have to cut a nylon cord or shoelace, you can use a flame to melt the end into a nub that won’t run or fray. Use a little heat and press it together on a hard surface very briefly. It works fast!” -- R.S. in Maine

HOW TO EFFECTIVELY AND SAFELY SANITIZE A CAR

• Wash hands. First and foremost, it is crucial to wash your hands before and after using the car.

• Use rubbing alcohol. Solutions that contain 70 percent alcohol are effective against many viruses and bacteria. Nearly every interior surface of a vehicle can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol.

• Avoid bleach or hydrogen peroxide. They are likely to damage a car’s upholstery.

• Use soap and water: Experts say that vigorous washing with a soapand-water solution can be effective against many contaminants. Friction also can help to break down germ cells during cleaning.

• Address frequently touched surfaces. Pay attention to the steering wheel, door handles, buttons, touchscreen displays, shift lever, and more when sanitizing.

Firms on the lookout for ways to manage employees’ time more efficiently may want to reconsider their approach to meetings. A recent study on meetings commissioned by Verizon Conferencing found that an overwhelming majority of professionals who are considered heavy meeting-goers admitted to an array of behaviors that suggest meetings aren’t as productive as employers may believe. Ninety-six percent of respondents admitted to having missed meetings in the past, while 91 percent acknowledged daydreaming during meetings. In addition, 73 percent of respondents did other work during a meeting, while 39 percent acknowledged falling asleep.

DID YOU KNOW?

Retirement can seem like it will never come for young professionals. But time can be a sieve,andretirementagecanarrive in the blink of an eye. Young adults who have not planned accordingly for retirement can find themselves infinancialstraitsatapointintheir lives when they want to kick back and enjoy themselves. Financial experts advise that financially solventpeopleshouldbeginsaving aggressively for their retirements early on. Ideally people should start saving in their 20s when they first leave school and begin their careers. The sooner one saves, the more time money has to grow. Vanguard says that the person who saves $4,500 per year over a career spanning 45 years can reach a goal of having more than $1 million in savings by the time he or she retires. Compounding interest and investment matches from employers can further secure professionals’ financial futures.

Applicants must possess the following: Clean NYS CDL preferred; Experience operating heavy equipment preferred; Mechanical experience with diesel and heavy equipment preferred along with welding and fabrication skills. Must be able to work both independently and in a team environment.

DID YOU KNOW? According to the Environmental Protection Agency, air currents can carry pesticides that were applied to nearby properties. That means even people who do not apply pesticides in their lawns and gardens can still be at risk of exposure to these potentially harmful chemicals. People concerned by the prospect of being exposed to the pesticides being applied by their neighbors can stay indoors with their children and pets while the substances are being applied. Those who live near fields and parks where pesticides are routinely applied can plant hardy, thick-branched trees to reduce their risk of airborne exposure.The EPA notes that such plants and shrubs can serve as buffers against airborne pesticides, essentially acting as walls around a property that prevent gusty winds from blowing pesticides into yards and gardens.
