SENIOR NEWS LINE

Doing the right thing

How many of us are continuing to do things we feel we should, even if we don’t want to?

A neighbor bemoaned the fact that her husband had signed them up for yet another line dancing class at the senior center. “And I don’t want to go,” she said. “I’m tired of learning new dances. I’d like to just enjoy the ones I already know.”

Like many of the people at the senior center, my neighbor and her husband were generally signed up for one or more classes being offered. And to the staff’s credit, there is a wide variety of classes to choose from on a rotating basis. We have tech classes, language classes, seated yoga, drawing and painting, Cooking for One, writing your memoir ... and another line dance class. We’ve been through several and now there’s apparently one called Cowboy Hustle.

And my neighbor didn’t want to learn it.

Curiosity got the better of me, and one recent day at the senior center I asked the group waiting for a class what they keep doing just because it’s the right thing to do. There was a variety of replies:

-- Attempting to walk thousands of steps per day.

-- Walking the neighbor’s dog so she doesn’t have to give it up.

-- Counting calories.

-- Sewing clothes for the grandchildren.

-- Eating vegetables every day.

-- Taking the mother-in-law out to lunch every Friday.

I saw my “no more line dancing” neighbor again. Maybe he just wants to keep both of you active and healthy, I suggested. And maybe he enjoys doing things with you, I added. She smiled and nodded, acknowledging that her husband was actually a good guy. And I knew that she’d be there learning the Cowboy Hustle alongside her good guy husband.

How about you? What do you keep doing just because it’s the right thing to do?

(Family Features) Here are three things you can do to help protect your mobile devices and your identity: Password protect your device. A recent study by Javelin Strategy and Research found that even though many smartphones are being used to handle sensitive financial information, only 33 percent of smartphone owners password-protect their devices. If your phone falls into the wrong hands, you could make it very easy for someone to access your personal information and steal your identity.

Review your social network privacy settings. It’s not just advertisers taking advantage of the personal information you include on your social network sites. As the use of social networking continues to increase, it’s expected that the use of malware will rise, too. Cybercriminals are always looking for ways to steal information and money. So you need to review your privacy settings frequently, be careful of what apps you install, and never “friend” someone you don’t know.

Consider getting extra protection. There are a growing number of tools available to help you monitor and protect your identity as well as restore your name and credit, should your identity get stolen. For example, Mobile Rhino is a specialty insurance program that not only insures your device, but also offers an Identity Monitoring Service that alerts you of any changes that could indicate someone else is using your information.

HOW TO STAY SAFE ON DIY PROJECTS

Make sure you choose the right ladder. DIYers may spend ample time shopping for drills and other electronic tools and gadgets that are fun to use. But ample time also must be afforded to the type of ladder you intend to use on a project. Estimates from the West Bend Insurance Company indicate that roughly 90,000 people visit the emergency room due to ladder accidents each year. Never use a broken ladder or an aging ladder that’s uneven. In addition, do not use a ladder that forces you to reach far away. If you’re leaning while using a ladder, the ladder is either too short for your project or positioned too far away from the wall. The National Home Security Alliance advises DIYers to place their ladder one foot from the wall for every four feet it rises above the ground. Test your ladders for their sturdiness prior to beginning work so you aren’t tempted to use a subpar ladder.

HOBBIES THAT SUIT A SUMMERTIME VIBE

Reading: Individuals who have long wanted to read more should know that they’re not alone. A 2019 survey commissioned by the reading subscription service Scribd and conducted by The Harris Poll found that 35 percent of respondents wished they could read more. Finding time to read more may be difficult during spring, summer and fall, when parents must contend with their own hectic schedules as well as their children’s. Even individuals without children or empty nesters may find it difficult to carve out time to read in a typical day. But people who aspire to read more can take a book to the beach or out on the deck on a warm afternoon or evening. Leave the smartphone inside so you can relax and read distraction-free.

HOW PARENTS CAN SIMPLIFY STUDENTS’ TRANSITION TO COLLEGE LIFE

Let kids handle more standard responsibilities. Adults tend to take more mundane responsibilities like making doctor’s appointments or grocery shopping for granted. But kids likely have no idea how to handle such tasks. Parents can encourage their high school seniors to make their own medical appointments. In addition, take kids along on grocery shopping trips, explaining how to find sale items and which foods to buy and which to avoid. Nutrition is not always foremost on the minds of college freshmen, but those who understand the importance of healthy diets are more likely to buy nutritious meals than junk food.

10 BENEFITS OF READING FOR CHILDREN

• More extensive vocabulary

• Improved language skills

• Critical thinking skill development

• Increased creativity and imagination

• Empathy development

• Understanding of the surrounding world

• Improved concentration

• Parent-child bonding

• Cognitive development support

• Improved social skills and interaction

It’s never too early to begin reading to babies. In fact, reading to infants beginning at birth helps support their cognitive development and their bond with parents. It also increases the likelihood that parents will continue reading to children as they grow, improving language skills and concentration to prepare them for academic success.

Zero to Three, an organization focused on early childhood development, recommends these book-type guidelines for babies and toddlers:

Birth to 6 Months - chunky board books, soft fabric books and vinyl bath books

6 to 9 Months - board books with short, simple stories and colorful illustrations

9 to 18 Months - board books with simple stories, stories with rhymes and phrases that repeat, and stories with pictures of other babies and familiar objects like animals

18 to 24 Months - longer, slightly more complex stories; humorous stories; and stories featuring silly rhymes

24 to 26 Months - books with paper pages, nonfiction stories about things like animals or seasons, and books that discuss jobs

ANDDON’TFORGET… studies show that good reading habits in older adults can help improve memory, sharpen decisionmaking skills, reduce stress and protect against Alzheimer’s and dementia.

KEEPING IT LOCAL, TOGETHER.

Dear Readers,

Lately, it feels like the world is moving faster than ever — with constant talk about technology, artificial intelligence, and big changes coming our way. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by it all.

We want to give you a break from all the noise when you read the Penny Saver. We want to continue to curate a product that you feel good about reading, where you can learn about what’s happening with your neighbors and feel proud about living in our beautiful region. e Penny Saver has been many things to many people but the one constant for the publication has been a focus on “local”. To that end, we want to expand all that we share with you to make this the best and most useful publication. So what does this mean?

e bottom line is we want to create and share more local content. at might include stories about high school athletes, highlights of local trails and other natural gems to visit, homesteading tips, reviews of new books coming out from local authors, shared local poetry, new playground reviews, and even local generational recipe sharing! ese are just a taste of what we want to build. However, our focus will not be on hard news. Politics and police blotters have never been our specialty, and we want to leave that type of reporting to the folks in the news that do that best.

ere is a reality to these ambitions. Costs continue to rise, especially for postage and revenue is unpredictable due to an ever-changing advertising landscape. We’ve worked hard since the pandemic to lower our costs and provide the same great service to you, but adding content to better serve readers requires more resources.

Here’s what we’re asking. If every home that receives the Penny Saver gave $5 we would be able to fund all of this local content and more. Our goal is to keep the Penny Saver a free publication and available to as many readers in the community as possible. What we are seeking is an investment from you in the product you love to make it even better.

It’s said in our industry that the health of a local publication is a direct reflection of the community it serves. Our commitment to local goes beyond our content. Our paper is printed right in Avon, NY by employees, managers, and owners that live here in Western New York. We hope to remain strong for many years to come and even foster the next generation of readers who share the love of “local”.

Irondequoit’s Hero on the Field and on the Battlefield

In 1934, Donald Walter Holleder was born in Buffalo, but it was in Irondequoit that his legacy truly began to take shape. At 13, he moved with his family to Irondequoit and made a name for himself as a standout athlete at Aquinas Institute. Don starred in football, basketball, and baseball, drawing attention from colleges around the country. But it wasn’t just his athletic talent that stood out, it was his unwavering sense of duty. When the US Military Academy at West Point offered him a spot, he accepted without hesitation.

At West Point, Holleder quickly rose through the ranks of Army’s football team. By his junior year in 1954, he had become one of the top ends in the country, earning first-team All-America honors a er catching 17 passes for 495 yards, a considerable feat at the time. e following year, however, brought a surprise. Army coach Earl “Red” Blaik asked Holleder to switch positions from end to quarterback. It was a move many questioned, including the press, who dubbed it “Blaik’s Folly.” But Holleder, ever the team player, agreed without complaint. ough not a natural passer, he led the team with grit and determination, helping Army to a 6-3-0 record and a memorable win over Navy. at victory landed him on the cover of Sports Illustrated, and even more importantly, cemented his reputation as a selfless leader.

Holleder was dra ed by the New York Giants in 1956, but instead of pursuing fame in the NFL, he chose a life of service. A er graduating from West Point, he became an officer in the U.S. Army, serving in several posts including in Korea and Hawaii. He also returned to West Point as an assistant football coach, where he mentored younger cadets with the same passion and purpose he had shown as a player. But by the mid-1960s, as the Vietnam War escalated, Holleder felt called to serve more directly. In 1967, he volunteered for combat duty and was assigned as the Operations Officer for the 1st Brigade, 1st Infantry Division.

DONALD HOLLEDER COLLEGE FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME

OnOctober17,1967,duringOperationShenandoah II in Vietnam’s Ong anh Valley, Holleder’s leadership was tested in the most harrowing way. As U.S. forces were ambushed and their commanding officers killed or wounded, Holleder landed nearby and ran toward the gunfire, hoping to take control and rescue the wounded. With three volunteers behind him, he sprinted into danger. He was shot and killed trying to reach his fallen comrades. He was 33 years old.

At the time of his death, Holleder le behind a wife and four young daughters. His loss was not just a military one, but a deeply personal tragedy for his family, and a reminder of the human cost of war.

In 2012, Holleder was posthumously awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his bravery that day. ough he had been gone for decades, the

recognition served as a powerful reminder of a life lived with courage and conviction. Back home, the people of Irondequoit and Rochester neverforgothim.In1974,AquinasInstituterenamed their football stadium Holleder Memorial Stadium in his honor. ough the stadium was eventually torn down, Holleder Parkway and Holleder Technology Park now stand on the site. e Holleder Army Reserve Center in Webster serves as another tribute, and each October 17th, veterans, scouts, and community members gather there to remember his sacrifice.

Beyond memorials, Holleder’s spirit continues through the Black Lion Award, established by footballcoachHughWyatt.InspiredbyHollederand hisfellowsoldiers,theawardispresentedannuallyto players who exemplify leadership, courage, devotion to team, and selflessness, the very traits that defined Don’s life.

Don Holleder’s story is one of sacrifice and service, of a man who traded personal glory for something bigger than himself. From the playing fields of Irondequoit and West Point to the jungles of Vietnam, he lived by a code of honor that continues to inspire. His name may be etched on plaques and parkways, but more importantly, his values live on in every athlete who puts team before self and every soldier who leads with heart.

In Irondequoit, he is remembered as a hometown hero and as a symbol of the kind of character we hope to pass down to the next generation, a reminder that greatness lies in courage, humility, and the willingness to serve.

Where’s e Beef?

Thank you, Farm Workers of America, documented and undocumented. Growing up on a farm I picked fields of stone and harvested vegetables. It’s hard work and the sun can be relentless. That work doesn’t even compare to the acres of vegetables I see as I drive to work in my air-conditioned car. How many of you have ever slaughtered and butchered an animal? It’s not a pleasant job but someone needs to do this work if you want to eat. We owe these people who provide for our sustenance our gratitude. They work grueling hours and many live in fear because they desire a better life for themselves and their families. If you think anyone can do this work think again or try it for a day, especially one of our 90-degree weather days. I guarantee that you will feel differently about these wonderful people and the price of beef may seem like a small price to pay. If you are inclined to say Grace for the food that you eat that should include a thank you as well as a request to protect those who do the bulk of the providing.

I do! Today I tried to cancel my trash and recycling service to sign on with another company who offers tote valet service. I am a senior and struggle to get the totes to the curb. It took an hour or more to “get help,” but I am still uncertain that anything was done. I tried various phone numbers only to be put on hold in eternity. I also tried to be savvy by doing it online, but to no avail. There was no option for cancelling service. I had much to do today but had to “productively” spend my time waiting. I even did a “live chat” but nothing was accomplished. If this is the ongoing future of customer service in the USA, nothing will get done and we will wither and die as a nation and we will have no need for the BBB because there will be no business! God help us all!

BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH ANIMAL TRAINERS

Trainers train owners as well. Trainers won’t just work with pets, but also with pet owners. Obedience trainers will work with pets to teach them how to behave while also teaching owners various ways to positively reinforce the animals. This is a great way for owners to get hands-on experience and learn proper obedience training techniques, which are not always as easy to learn as owners may think.

Is crate training working for this hyper puppy?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My best friend adopted a puppy a few months ago. Training seems to be going well: “Freya” gets regular walks, and she heels pretty well and responds when called. However, my friend uses a kennel crate, and whenever Freya acts up (which is pretty normal for puppies, right?) she puts her into the crate. I don’t think crates should be used as punishment. What’s your advice?

-- Glen in Marietta, Georgia

DEAR GLEN: While you’re correct that a crate shouldn’t be used as punishment, crate training a puppy can get complicated sometimes. Those little guys are wriggly, fast and always a bit hyper. The line between “calm and relaxed” and “zooming around your ankles” is paper-thin.

Before giving your friend advice about how to crate her dog, ask a tactful question or two. Like, “How do you know when it’s time for Freya to go into her crate?” or, “Freya is so good at going into the crate on command. How did you accomplish that?” Owners are often willing to reply in detail about their training method, especially when it’s working well.

Signs that it’s not going well are when both owner and pet seem stressed near the crate; when the dog is deeply reluctant to enter the crate, or even fearful. If the owner is yelling or yanking the dog’s leash or collar, that’s not a good sign; there’s a bigger issue than the crate happening. Ideally, both owner and dog should be relaxed, calm and happy around the crate. That’s a huge help in crate training, because Freya will associate the crate with those emotions (and treats). You could point your friend to the AKC’s page on crate training: www.akc.org/expert-advice/ training/how-to-crate-train-your-dog-in-9-easy-steps.

Understanding What Hyperbaric Oxygen Can Do for Hearing Loss

DEAR DR. ROACH: I was just diagnosed with sudden sensorineural hearing loss. They gave me a steroid injection into the ear and more steroids by mouth, but they say it’s up to me whether I want to try hyperbaric oxygen.

Do you have any opinion on it? How does breathing pure oxygen at 2 atmospheres help anything? Is there some underlying theory to explain why people do this? It seems to me all this accomplishes is that it raises my blood oxygen level from 97% to 100%. How can this help anything? --

Q. A.

ANSWER: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is an uncommon condition. It can often be misdiagnosed, and since some people get better on their own, it is sometimes never diagnosed at all.

I suspect there isn’t one single cause in all cases as several causes have been proposed, including infections (especially viral), medications and recreational drugs, brain tumors, autoimmune diseases, head trauma, and associations with other diseases. But most cases have no clear underlying cause.

In addition to a careful exam, hearing tests and an MRI of the brain are generally recommended. Early treatment with steroids (either by injection, orally, or both) has been shown to enhance recovery.

In people with more severe hearing loss, hyperbaric oxygen has been shown to improve outcomes compared to steroids alone. It is thought that the high amount of oxygen delivered via the hyperbaric chamber may be able to deliver oxygen to areas of the cochlea that were damaged, but the mechanism of action isn’t completely clear.

The benefit of hyperbaric oxygen isn’t that it gets your red blood cells more oxygenated. You can’t do better than 100%, and 97% is very close to 100%. With hyperbaric oxygen, the fluid of the blood itself carries much more oxygen, which is then dissolved in the plasma -not in the red blood cells. The oxygen in the fluid is 60 times higher with 3 atmospheres of oxygen compared to room air,which is enough to deliver oxygen to your tissues without red blood cells.

Carefully done, the risks of hyperbaric oxygen are small. The high pressure can cause pain and pressure in the ear and sinuses, which can be relieved by equalizing pressure through maneuvers that open the Eustachian tube (such as yawning or swallowing).

While I understand why physicians want to get your opinion on your treatment, it doesn’t sound like they gave you enough information to make an informed choice. In my opinion, they should have gone over the risks and benefits, then given you a clear recommendation.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to
