PALM SUNDAY
On what is now called “Palm Sunday,” Jesus Christ rode a donkey into Jerusalem while villagers welcomed him and waved palm branches. This is mentioned in each of the Biblical Gospels and occurs a week before His subsequent resurrection. Jesus possibly rode a donkey rather than a horse as a sign of peace, as a war-waging king might ride a horse. The “Passion of the Christ” is typically read during Palm Sunday masses.

DID YOU KNOW?
Holy Thursday, which falls on the Thursday before Easter Sunday, commemorates The Last Supper of Jesus Christ. During The Last Supper, Jesus,whoChristiansbelieveistheSonofGod,establishedthesacrament of Holy Communion. The Last Supper was the final meal Jesus enjoyed with his disciples in Jerusalem, and it was during The Last Supper when Jesus predicted one of those disciples would ultimately betray him. Holy Thursday is sometimes referred to as “Maundy Thursday,” a reference to the religious rite of maundy, which is the washing of the feet. The Last Supper and the rite of maundy are connected because it was during The Last Supper that Jesus washed the feet of his disciples. Though The Last Supper, during which Jesus gave his disciples bread, telling them it was his body, and wine, telling them it was his blood, is celebrated at every Mass as part of the Liturgy of the Eucharist, Holy Thursday Mass places even greater emphasis on this significant event.

TIPS FOR TAKING STUNNING NATURE PHOTOS
Use light wisely. The photography resource Expert Photography recommends taking photos primarily during the golden hours. These are right after sunrise and just before sunset.The light during these times of day has a softer, hazy quality that will illuminate subjects evenly and less harshly than midday,when shadows also may pose challenges. Taking photos during these times also means fewer people around and a better chance that wildlife will be out and about.

Tick season shi s into full gear – are you ready?
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My dog “Happy” and I went hiking this weekend, and when we got back to the car, I did the usual check for bugs and burrs on his long coat. I was shocked to find 12 tiny ticks clinging to his fur. I brushed them off and found five more scurrying around my boot laces. These are baby ticks, right? Should I be worried about tick bites for both of us? -- Karl M., Roanoke, Virginia
DEAR KARL: You should continue to be vigilant over the next few days, but don’t worry too much -- unless Happy shows signs of illness. Doing a “tick check” after each trip outdoors is important, and you did exactly what you needed to do.
Over the next few days, brush through Happy’s coat frequently to dislodge any additional ticks. Newly hatched ticks are indeed tiny and hard to see. Run your hand through Happy’s coat so that you can check his skin for visible bites or lodged ticks.If you notice a bull’s-eye rash around an area, contact the veterinarian.
If you haven’t treated your hiking boots or clothing with permethrin yet, now is the time to do so. Spray the treatment outside, away from Happy or any other animal, and do not let Happy near those clothes until they have dried completely. The permethrin will stay effective through a few washes.
To keep ticks out of the house, follow similar procedures to flea prevention. Give Happy a regular flea and tick preventative; vacuum and mop the house regularly, and terminate any ticks you find.

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF WHEN TRAVELING ALONE
Avoid doing “touristy” things. Do not draw unnecessary attention to yourself by appearing as the stereotypical tourist.This can include walking with your face in a guide map or wearing a fanny pack/money bag. Investigate places to eat, shop and visit in advance so you know where you will be headed and won’t get lost or have to ask for directions too often.

My Lucky Day
Thank you so very much to whoever found and turned in my cell phone on St. Patrick’s Day at the local Post Office. I was doing a complicated mailing and set my phone down on the counter to look up an address. I was several miles away when I noticed it was missing and anxiously drove back expecting it to be gone. When I asked at the front desk, the clerk presented the phone to me and said someone had turned it in and didn’t leave their name. I am very appreciative of the honesty and integrity of this person and they made my St. Patrick’s Day a truly lucky day!

Parking Illegally
My special THANKS to the kind young woman who thought she had cut me off at our drive thru coffee establishment in Hamlin. It was a cold, snowy morning almost 2 months ago. I had pulled over to answer my phone before entering the drive thru lane. A woman went around me. I finished my call and pulled in behind her. She must have thought she cut me off and kindly paid for my coffee and breakfast wrap as an apology-- you don’t see that consideration often!, How very thoughtful of her. I had no way to thank her or to assure her that she did NOT cut me off. I took that amount of money I was going to pay for my meal, added to it and donated it to our food bank. I hope that it pays forward and the thoughtful lady reads this!!
I live on [local road] and there are “No Parking” signs up and down the street. My visitors obey the signs and park in the public parking lot or if it’s a quick stop, we use our flashers. Unfortunately, there have been numerous times that vehicles parking in front of [local address] were there for hours and even overnight!! Maybe a ticket or two would remedy the owners disregard for that parking. I also hope they don’t block the firetrucks trying to turn in or out of their parking lot. It’s been close a couple of times.
ink Before You Speak
There are amazing people today, so I don’t mean to overgeneralize, but let’s think before we speak, shall we?! When you call up a business to complain about a service that’s not really in their purview but you holler and yell over the phone, what does that accomplish?! Likely, the person answering the phone does not get paid enough to be berated for something out of their control. More power to the folks who can answer phone lines when customers are known to be upset more often than not, but to holler and yell at a receptionist who helps direct your calls and take down information to help you and your fellow humans, that’s really low.
Let’s remember to be civil. If that means we need to wait a moment to cool down before calling someone, so be it. You’ll catch more flies with honey, as the old adage goes.

Lobular Protrusion Causes Concern for a Spontaneous Rupture
DEAR DR. ROACH: I am an 80-year-old woman in good health with low blood pressure, and the only medication I take is levothyroxine. A 6-by-5.5-mm aneurysm was discovered in my brain, and the scan shows one lobular protrusion that may be of concern for rupture.
I am trying to decide if I should go through with a procedure, but I am not sure about the effectiveness, risks, and possible post-procedure adverse reactions. It is my understanding that these coils have been on the market for a while, and I was wondering which product is best if this information is available. I was informed that the coil is made of platinum.
Two last questions: Does the coil lead to clotting, causing the aneurysm to be occluded? What prevents blood clots from entering the vascular system in the brain and causing problems? -- I.C.
Q. A.
ANSWER: An aneurysm is a weakening in the wall of the artery, which causes part of the artery to enlarge. If the enlargement is big enough, a person is at risk for rupture, which causes a bleed inside the brain that can lead to a potentially devastating stroke, depending on the size and location of the aneurysm.
When the aneurysm is big enough to be concerned for rupture, they are considered for repair, which can be done through the surgical placement of a clip or by placing a platinum coil inside the aneurysm. This is done endovascularly, meaning that a catheter is placed in the affected artery. Under a fluoroscopy (a real-time X-ray), the coil is opened up. This causes a clot in the aneurysm, which protects the thinned wall from enlarging further and reduces the risk of rupture.
You are quite right that the clot can propagate and break off. A large study showed that this can happen up to 9% of the time, but newer techniques and medications to prevent this complication have the potential to reduce it further.
Your neurosurgeon needs to weigh the risk of a clot or rupture during the procedure against the benefit of preventing a spontaneous rupture of the aneurysm. This takes judgment, and only your doctor can make this call based on the precise characteristics of your aneurysm and your overall medical condition.
I will note that the risk of rupture or a clot breaking off are lower when the aneurysm hasn’t ruptured, compared to when the procedure is done as an emergency. You also have to rely on your surgeon to choose the best product for you. Unfortunately, there aren’t studies to guide the decision, so it’s left to clinical judgment. With my own patients, I defer to the surgeon.
Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2025 King Features Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

Social Security to recover overpayments
Word is that Social Security is going to “claw back” any overpayment to the tune of 100% of the monthly benefit check until it’s all paid back, inciting panic across the land.
But it’s not necessarily true.
That recovery of benefits will only affect overpayments that began on March 27 of this year. Yes, they’ll take full payments until that overpayment is repaid. But any overpayments made prior to that date will be made at the rate that was in place before: 10% of the benefit check.
So, if your check is usually $1,000, the amount they’ll take out is $100, not your full check. It will be the same if you receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI). They’ll take 10%, not the full check.
Not that having any amount deducted will be easy.
Before you start to panic that you might get the dreaded “overpayment” letter from Social Security, here are a few facts, courtesy of a report by Social Security’s Office of the Inspector General:
Overpayment (and even underpayment) doesn’t happen very often, in less than 1% of benefits paid.
There are two main reasons why an error can occur: People report the wrong information about their income or fail to make corrections if there are changes (especially those who are under full retirement age and still working), and there are problems with Social Security’s processing, specifically errors made when workers enter the data.
Level: Beginner
If you receive the overpayment letter, you might be able to waive the recovery of the amount owed, especially if the overpayment was not your fault. Go to the Social Security website and look for SSA form 632 (www.ssa. gov/forms/ssa-632.html). If that doesn’t go well, you can appeal by using SSA form 561 (www.ssa.gov/forms/ssa-561.html).
You can also try calling them at 800-772-1213. If that doesn’t work, look for a Social Security office in your area by going to secure.ssa.gov/ICON/main. jsp and putting in your ZIPp code.

FINDING MEANING IN THE ABSURD:
G. Murray Thomas Reflects on a Life in Poetry
BY SUZIE WELLS
As National Poetry Month unfolds, we celebrate voices that elevate the art of verse and help us see the world – and ourselves – more clearly. One such voice belongs to G. Murray omas, a poet and writer whose career spans decades and coasts and whose words continue to resonate both on the stage and the page.
Born in Brockport and raised in Spencerport, omas has been cra ing stories all his life, dictating stories to his mother before he could write, he reflects. Knowing in high school he would pursue a writing career, omas earned a BA in Creative Writing from Hampshire College in 1980.
at early passion evolved into a dynamic poetic voice shaped by years in Idaho and then in Southern California, where he dove deeply into the vibrant poetry scene. “Going to readings, hearing other poets, getting feedback all helped make me the poet I am today,” he says. He published his first chapbook, Death to the Real World (and other poems about life) through “poetry sucks” press in 1991. He founded Orange Ocean Press to publish poetry anthologies on “unpoetic” topics and became known for editing Next... Magazine, a monthly newsmagazine highlighting the growing SoCal poetry scene.
omas has published five chapbooks, three full length poetry collections, as well as countless poems, articles, and reviews published widely and so many performed for a variety of audiences. He has shared his and others’ perspectives on poetry on a monthly radio show and formed a spoken word band with friends on bass, drums, and guitar that toured the poetry and music venue scene for a couple of years.
As he now tours to promote his latest work, Living the Sundown (Moon Tide Press, 2024), he quickly points to it as his most meaningful accomplishment, sharing, “It is a memoir about the four years I spent caring for my parents, who both suffered from dementia. I hope it can serve as both a comfort and an eye-opener for others who are going through similar situations or soon will.” e book is a heartfelt blend of memoir and poetry, revealing the power of language to honor love, grief, and the complex realities of caregiving.
Much of omas’s work has been influenced by performance poetry, he says, explaining, “I feel my best poems work both on the stage and on the page, but they usually work well live. I enjoy the thrill of a positive audience response to my poetry.”
His inspirations are wide-ranging, o en rooted in the “absurdity of life,” as he calls it, though he reflects that lately, “more serious issues have intruded, but I always have an eye towards the absurd.” It’s this blend of humor, reflection, and raw emotion that makes his poetry so deeply human.
Since moving back to upstate NY to care for his parents, omas has begun exploring the Rochester literary landscape. As he reconnects with local readings and communities, he continues to see poetry not just as an art form but as a “tool to understand what is going on around me and how I feel about [it].”
G. MURRAY THOMAS
is National Poetry Month, G. Murray omas reminds us that poetry can be a compass, a comfort, and sometimes, a cathartic laugh in the face of life’s wild turns.
To explore more of G. Murray omas’ work and upcoming events, visit gmurraythomas.com. Mark your calendar for Monday, June 2, at 6:30 pm at the Pittsford Library, as omas will read from his recent works in an event sure to blend wisdom, wit, and poetic insight.
From omas’ first book, Cows on the Freeway: COWS ON THE FREEWAY
Cows spilled all over the freeway by another amusing anecdote on the traffic report. Cows standing, dazed, the carcasses of their traveling companions scattered around them hinting at something, something they can’t understand yet obviously important.
While more things they can’t understand zip by too fast to catch or even focus on yet, again, obviously important. ese cows know there is something they must do RIGHT NOW!!
But they sure don’t know what the hell it could be.
I can’t tell you how o en I feel like a cow on a freeway.
From omas’ latest book, Living the Sundown: THE DAY
e day his doctor told my father he shouldn’t drive anymore there were suddenly so many errands to run. I ran into the mailbox, and delivered his newspaper late.

ere were so many errands to run but snow piled deep in the driveway. and the snowplow was late.
e mail never came.
e snow piled high against the walls. My mother argued with her caregiver and then read the same letter over and over. e turkeys ran wild in the yard.
My mother argued with her caregiver because she said she didn’t need a caregiver Later, they watched the turkeys run wild, and the starlings battle at the bird feeder.
My mother said she didn’t need her walker. My father, mystified by the remote, missed his favorite show.
e bird feeder became a TV.
My mother almost fell down.
My father was mystified that he couldn’t drive anymore. I fell asleep and drove my car into a ditch.

DID YOU KNOW?
According to KidsHealth.org, more than one-third of child injuries and deaths happen at home. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention notes that most incidents at home occur where there is water, such as in the bathroom or kitchen; heat or flame, like in the kitchen or around the grill; toxic substances, like those found in medicine cabinets or beneath kitchen sinks; and in places where kids can fall, such as on staircases.

There are plenty of reasons to plant trees. Trees provide a natural form of shade, reducing air temperature by blocking the sun’s rays. This can reduce reliance on air conditioning systems and make it more comfortable to spend time outdoors during the summer.
North Carolina State University College of Agriculture & Life Sciences says trees absorb and block noise and reduce glare. They also can trap dust, pollen and smoke. Trees also absorb carbon dioxide and potentially harmful gasses from the air. One large tree can supply a day’s worth of oxygen for as many as four people, while also storing 13 pounds of carbon per year.
While many hardscaping additions can be handled by novices, large-scale projects, such as patios and decking, can change the grading of the yard. Professionals can map out how to handle drainage issues and meet building codes. In addition, professional installation can ensure hardscaping features last for years to come.

WEAR A BASE LAYER. A thin T-shirt is a must as a base layer, better if it is made of fabric that wicks away moisture. There are even some that are made to be water repellent and stain resistant with anti-odor properties for those in warmer climes. Since this is the layer that is in direct contact with your skin, you want something that will allow moisture to escape as you sweat.
