LOCAL DINING SPOTS FOSTER COMMUNITY

Crowdcontrol:Localrestaurantstendtobesmallerandmoreintimatethan many chain restaurants. This can translate into a calm dining experience. When crowds are small, the noise level inside the restaurant may be muted and service may be fast because there aren’t as many tables to serve. Furthermore, local establishments, although concerned about making a profit, may be less worried about table turnover rate, preferring to let diners linger if it means repeat business.

DID YOU KNOW? Leisure activities may be widely viewed as fun ways to fill up free time, but the benefits of leisure activities extend beyond beating boredom. A 2011 analysis published in the journal BBA Molecular Basis of Disease found that leisure activities have a positive impact on cognitive function and dementia. The analysis, conducted by researchers with the Aging Research Center in Stockholm who examined various studies regarding the relationship between certain activities and cognitive function, defined leisure activity as the voluntary use of free time for activities outside the home. After retirement, leisure time constitutes a large part of many retirees’ lives, and finding ways to fill that time is more beneficial than merely avoiding boredom. The researchers behind the study concluded that the existing research is insufficient to draw any firm conclusions regarding the effects of certain types of leisure activities on the risk for dementia and cognitive decline, though they did note that multi-domain cognitive training has the potential to improve cognitive function in healthy older adults and slow decline in affected individuals. A multi-domain approach to cognitive training involves memory, reasoning, problem-solving, and map reading, among other activities. Aging adults who embrace activities that require the use of such skills may find that they’re not only finding stimulating ways to fill their free time, but increasing their chances of long-term cognitive health as well.

ROOFING & SIDING

SIGNS A ROOF NEEDS REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT

Roof age: The age of the roof is a major factor in determining if it will need to be replaced or if repairs can be made to isolated damage. Individuals who live in neighborhoods where neighbors are now replacing roofs will likely find it is time to consult a roofing company. Homeowners also can check to see if they have any receipts that indicate the roof’s installation date so they have an idea about its age.

One attraction that is synonymous with fairs and amusement parks is the Ferris wheel. The original Ferris wheel was designed and constructed for the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago by George Washington Gale Ferris, Jr. Since then, Ferris wheels have become the most common type of amusement rides at state fairs and other attractions. However “pleasure wheels” and “great wheels” have appeared throughout history in areas of Persia, India and Bulgaria.

Did you know?

The Fourth of July has been a federal holiday since 1941. Though that may seem like a long time for the country to wait to celebrate the independence it declared in 1776, the tradition of the Fourth of July, often referred to as Independence Day, dates back to the dawn of the American Revolution and the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. Since then, July 4th has been recognized as the dawn of American independence, and celebrations that included fireworks and parades can be traced back to the 18th century. On July 4, 1777, the city of Philadelphia, which would become the first capital of the United States of America, held the first annual commemoration of American independence, and exactly one year later George Washington ordered that all of his soldiers be offered double rations of rum to commemorate the anniversary. In 1781, Massachusetts was the first state to make July 4th an official state holiday, and the day was actually declared a federal holiday by the U.S. Congress in 1870. However, that declaration did not grant a paid holiday to federal employees. That benefit came in 1941, which is why that year is now recognized as the first year when the Fourth of July officially became a federal holiday.

ACCLIMATING TO A NEW NEIGHBORHOOD

Scout out the neighborhood

Use mobile phone apps to see where the locals tend to congregate and plan trips to these restaurants and other shops. Over time, you probably will start to see some familiar faces. Drive around town and get a feel for side streets instead of the main thoroughfares. It’s often off the beaten path where you happen upon the greatest finds.

Protect yourself against COMMON SCAMS

Imagine getting a call from someone claiming a close family member is in trouble and needs money right now. Perhaps the voice sounds like the person themself asking for help.

Or the person identifies as an IRS agent and informs you that you are criminally liable for unpaid tax debts.

Maybe it is someone who found you through an online dating or friendship website and wants to visit you in person but is having financial difficulties.

Or it’s the Social Security Administration with an identity the alert.

Maybe it’s an email or phone call offering you a can’t-miss investment opportunity.

Perhaps the caller or email congratulates you on winning a grand prize.

Perhaps a text message informs you of a package needing delivery confirmation.

Or you log into a website and a pop-up warns you that your identity has been found on the dark web and is being used for criminal purposes.

Perhaps a warning tells you your system has a virus and urges you to call a toll-free number or click a link for tech support.

Unfortunately, all these scenarios and more are becoming increasinglycommonplaceintoday’sdigitalworld.Scammersare experts at playing with your mind and preying on your emotional vulnerabilities. ey create a sense of urgency, whether over the phone, online, or through text and email. ey want you to act fast without thinking. ey use fear to scare you into believing something bad will happen if you don’t pay. ey act like they’re in charge to make you think you have to do what they say. And some promise easy money or try to make you think they are in love with you.

All are lies to manipulate you to send money, reveal personal information, or both. If you are pressured to take immediate action without thinking it over or talking with someone else, including an attorney, it is a scam.

One of the most common scams today involves the purchase of gi cards, although providing personal information such as social security numbers and dates of birth or wiring money are also prevalent. Real companies and government agencies will never ask you to pay with gi cards. Only scammers will tell you to buy a gi card and give them the numbers off the back of the card. No matter what they say, that’s a scam. If you are buying a gi card for any reason other than physically giving it to someone in real life, it is a scam.

Gi cards are like cash for scammers. It is almost impossible to track gi cards a er they have been redeemed. Once a scammer has the card’s info, they quickly turn it into money. It is also nearly impossible to get your money back, which makes gi cards the perfect tool for scammers to get away with stealing. Even if you’re careful, you might still get tricked.

If you think you’ve been scammed, act fast. e sooner you act, the better your chances of getting your money back.

If the scam involves gi cards, call the company that issued the gi card. Tell them what happened. ey might be able to freeze the card or refund your money. Look for the company’s contact number on the back of the card or online. If the scam involves wiring funds or providing personal information, contact your bank, wire service provider, or credit card issuer immediately to report the fraud and stop any further activity.

In every event, report the scam to your local police and file a report with the Federal Trade Commission at https:// reportfraud. c.gov. You may also want to contact the three major credit bureaus to place an alert on your file and freeze the opening of any new credit accounts at https://www. annualcreditreport.com/protectYourIdentity.action.

Save everything related to the scam, including e-mails, texts, receipts, and gi card numbers. Write down everything you remember about the scammer. e more evidence you have, the better, as it will help the police and the gi card company with their investigation.

GENESEE VALLEY PENNY SAVER

Learn the Available Options for Dealing With Kidney Stones &body mind

DEAR DR. ROACH: IjustfoundoutthatIhaveakidney stone. I’m 77 years old, and I don’t want to deal with it. I’ve heard of potassium citrate and pulverizing it with sound waves. Are these options? -- J.M.

ANSWER: When a person gets a kidney stone, the goals are to manage any symptoms, determine if a person’s health is at risk (especially from infection or kidney damage), and decide which treatment might be necessary to prevent any new stones. Extracorporeal sound wave lithotripsy is one way of removing symptomatic stones, as is ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy.The decision of whether intervention needs to be done is made by a urologist with expertise in stone management, and treatment depends on the size, type and location of your stone(s).

Prevention of a recurrent stone depends on the specific stone type and any metabolic issue the person has. Nearly everyone with stones is recommended to increase their water intake (to a level that is adequate enough to make at least 2 liters of urine a day -- and yes, we measure it) and decrease their salt intake (to less than 2,300 mg of sodium a day).

My former professor at the University of Chicago, Dr. Fred Coe, told me that he has seen people with sodium levels in their urine exceeding 25,000 mg a day. A high sodium level strongly favors stone formation.

Potassium citrate is a good choice for people who have calcium oxalate stones (60% to 80% of stones) and low measured citrate in their 24-hour urine tests. A low-oxalate diet may also be appropriate, but you can’t make an informed decision without knowing which kind of stone you have and what your metabolism is like.

If you do pass a stone, save it; it will be useful for your doctor. There are several different types of less-common stones, so management can’t be tailored for you without this information.

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

GREAT WEDDING GIFT IDEAS

Experience: Many people have embraced gifting an experience instead of an item to their loved ones. Some companies even facilitate such gifts to newlyweds. Websites like Traveler’s Joy allow couples to establish honeymoon registries, building them with activities and experiences they hope to enjoy on their trips. Loved ones can then gift money toward those activities, providing a win-win situation for people who would prefer to gift an experience and ensuring couples’ honeymoons will be that much more memorable.

POOL SAFETY ESSENTIALS TO LIVE BY

Keep water sanitary. Make sure pool water is chemically balanced so that it is comfortable to swim in and will not harbor any pathogens that can make swimmers ill. The pool equipment company Pahlen says the ideal water pH is 7.4 because that is the same as the pH in human eyes and mucous membranes, and it also supports good chlorine disinfection. The free chlorine content of a pool can range from 0.5 to 1.6 to keep it sanitary. A quality testing kit can help pool owners balance water.

MOMENTS IN TIME

The History Channel

* On June 29, 1613, the Globe Theatre, where most of Shakespeare’s plays debuted, burns down. The Globe was built by Shakespeare’s acting company, the Lord Chamberlain’s Men, in 1599 from the timbers of London’s very first permanent theater, Burbage’s Theater, built in 1576.

* On June 30, 1936, Margaret Mitchell’s “Gone with the Wind,” one of the bestselling novels of all time and the basis for a blockbuster 1939 movie, is published. Scarlett’s name was originally Pansy, but a change was requested by the publisher.

* On July 3, 1989, Martha Ann Johnson is arrested in Georgia for the 1982 murder of her oldest child after an Atlanta newspaper initiated a new investigation into the suspicious death. Her three other children had also mysteriously died. Johnson’s case sparked a trend in which authorities look closely into the sudden deaths of young children.

Four Bean Chili

Makes 8 to 10 servings

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 onion, finely chopped

2 medium carrots, chopped

1 red bell pepper, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons tomato paste

2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar

3 tablespoons chili powder

2 tablespoons ground cumin

1 tablespoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon salt

1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes

1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce

1 can (15 ounces) small white beans, rinsed and drained

1 can (15 ounces) light kidney beans, rinsed and drained

1 can (15 ounces) dark kidney beans, rinsed and drained

1 can (15 ounces) pinto beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup vegetable broth

1 can (4 ounces) diced mild green chiles

1 ounce unsweetened baking chocolate, chopped

1 tablespoon cider vinegar.

Heat oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions, carrots and bell pepper; cook and stir 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add garlic, tomato paste, brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, oregano and salt; cook and stir 1 minute.

Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, beans, broth, chiles, and chocolate; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in vinegar.

came into our lives 6 years ago on a cold winter day. His mom cat dropped him off on our deck when he was just a small baby for us to care for. What a gi it was.Right in time for the holidays. It’s a long story that some day I’d like to write a book about. But for today I’d just like to say he’s my cuddle bug and we just adore him.

FEATURED BUSINESSES

BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH ANIMAL TRAINERS

Animal trainers can address any type of behavior. According to the Animal Behavior Institute, trainers who work with dogs, cats, parrots, or other companion animals must have a thorough and detailed knowledge of animal behavior. Pet owners who have successfully housebroken puppies in the past may think they can do it again with relative ease, but no two puppies are the same. Techniques that worked with one dog will not necessarily work with another. Trainers recognize this and have an array of techniques within their arsenal, making them capable of addressing and correcting any type of behavior.

Phantom pregnancy in dogs

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I’ll bet you’ve never heard of this one before! My cousin has a female dog who has never been spayed. So she routinely will go into heat. Well, a few months ago, she started behaving funny. She didn’t want to eat, she started pacing the house and then would flop down and not want to go outside, for walks or anything. Even though she wasn’t eating much, she put on weight and her mammaries started to swell. She also started “guarding” her toys and acting aggressive if anyone tried to reach for them. I told my cousin, maybe she’s pregnant, but he insisted that she had never been around a male dog or gone unsupervised outside.

He took her to the vet because he thought she was ill. Would you believe, the vet diagnosed her with a “phantom” pregnancy? She had all the signs of being pregnant but there were no puppies. The vet gave her medication for a few weeks, and eventually she got back to her old self. What do you think about that? -- Terry P. in Albany, New York

DEAR TERRY: I have heard of this before! In unspayed females, pseudo-pregnancy, or “phantom pregnancy,” can happen after a heat cycle. It’s uncomfortable for the dog and concerning for the owner.

Treatment includes confirming the absence of a pregnancy, followed by medication to reduce anxiety and stop milk production. Hormone therapy is sometimes needed.

The best way to stop phantom pregnancy from happening again is to spay the dog after all symptoms have subsided, and it’s highly recommended. Spaying will help your cousin’s dog be far more comfortable -- she won’t go through heat cycles any longer -- and have a healthier, longer lifespan, too.

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.

Honoring Old Glory

How to Handle Our Flag With the Care and Respect It Deserves

Proper Folding Technique

Follow this folding technique once the United States flag is lowered from its mast or mount:

1 Begin by holding the flag at waist height between two people parallel to the ground.

2 Fold the lower striped section of the flag lengthwise, up and over the blue field of stars.

3 Fold again, bringing the folded edge up to meet the open top edge. e blue field of stars should now be visible facing outward.

4 Bring the striped corner of the bottom folded edge up and over to meet the top edge in a triangular fold.

5 Turn the outer point of the triangle inward to align with the open top edge.

Display Guidelines

• e flag should be displayed in public only from sunrise to sunset, unless it is illuminated during darkness.

• e flag should not be displayed during rain, snow and wind storms, unless it is an all-weather flag not prone to damage.

• On Memorial Day, the flag should be displayed at half-staff until noon. e flag may also be flown at half-staff to honor a newly deceased federal or state government official by order of the president or governor.

6 Continue this triangular folding pattern along the entire length of the flag.

• When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a wall, the blue field should be uppermost and to the flag’s own right (the observer’s le ). e same guidelines apply to a window display: the blue field should appear on the le to observers viewing it from the street.

• e flag should never be displayed upside down, unless to convey distress or great danger.

• Dirty, ripped, wrinkled or frayed flags should not be used. An American flag that is worn or damaged beyond repair should be retired in a respectful manner.

7 If a tail remains, fold it neatly into the remaining open fold.

Disposal Etiquette

Flag Retirement Ceremonies

8 Folding is complete when the flag is in a triangular shape with only the blue field visible.

e U.S. Flag Code states that “ e flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.” e American flag is an important and sacred symbol, and flag ceremonies are carried out to dispose of retired flags in a respectful manner. Burning a flag in an undignified manner constitutes desecration.

• Many state and county government offices and Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) posts have flag disposal boxes outside of their buildings. Police stations also o en collect flags for disposal. American Legions, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and other organizations may collect flags as well. Ceremonies are most o en conducted on June 14, Flag Day.

• If a flag ceremony drop-off location is not available, anyone can hold a flag retirement ceremony, provided it is conducted in a respectful and dignified manner. Flags may be ceremoniously folded and burned in compliance with local and state fire codes and ordinances, or folded and buried in a wooden box. Flags made of synthetic materials that could be potentially hazardous if burned may be recycled through flag companies or various organizations. For more information, visit nationalflagfoundation.org/etiquette.

Me and my little brother were fishing on Canandaigua Lake when I lost 2 pretty big pickerel that morning. That afternoon I went to Walmart to grab a bigger net and a few lures. . As I go to checkout the cashier tells me that her reader is down and that this register only does cash, so my whole line goes to other registers and I join a line behind the people that were behind me. As they are almost done checking out there is a big announcement over the intercom saying that all card readers are down and they are only taking cash. I ask if I can just try to tap my debit card to see if it will work but before the cashier can even say anything the couple infront of me checking out says “don’t worry, we’ll pay for it; just make sure to pay it forward.” We are very grateful for their generosity and I can’t wait to pay it forward and catch the next lake record.

Perinton Concert Band played wonderfully well for our first of the season. Thank you to a large group of fine musicians whom we appreciate. That’s the Brighter side.. but perhaps the few people who stand on the sidewalk adjacent to the concert goers who TALK most of the time might consider moving away from that part of the sidewalk or, stay, stop talking and find you will enjoy and appreciate music!

Pick up your own trash

When you purchase takeout food, you are responsible for proper disposal. Why do you think it is okay to drop it in a parking area or someone’s yard? Why do you expect someone else to pick up after you? I’m tired of finding smelly packages of trash as well as cigarette butts and beer cans. Please take care of your own trash.

Bridge Closure

The bridge in [local town] is still closed. Reconstruction was originally scheduled to begin on April 3, 2023 but didn’t begin until May 15, 2023. It was originally scheduled to open in September 2024 after an 18-month closure. It is still closed and we are assured that it will open in July 2025, but don’t hold your breath on this date. If that date holds true, it will have taken 28 months or 2 years and 4 month to rebuild the bridge. In contrast, it took 1 year and 45 days to build the Empire State Building in 1930. I hope [local town] doesn’t have any more major construction projects because we are getting tired waiting for this project to end.

passages

“Everytimeyoulookinamirror,catchyourselfsmiling…” ~ Scandinavian adage

We’ve all heard the old expression, “laughter is the best medicine.” Now the medical profession has confirmed the wisdom of this adage. We now know that anger, which increases the heartbeat and blood pressure, injures only the person who is angered.

Conversely, the ability to relax and to laugh easily does much to improve one’s health. So, let’s all learn to smile more. Let’s not let petty annoyances get us down. We may increase our life expectancy while making life for ourselves and those around us much more enjoyable.

SENIOR NEWS LINE

We can arrange for a religious ceremony even where there is no regular church affiliation. We can provide an appropriate service at a cost within the means of any family. For more information, phone. There is no obligation, of course.

The peace of avoiding the daily news

One month ago I wrote here about having avoided the television news for seven days. During that time, I didn’t have the stress from constant bombardment and media hysteria about all the problems and chronic chaos in the world. I felt better for it, both physically and mentally, but I knew I couldn’t keep it up forever.

At some point I figured I would have to rejoin the aware population and get up-to-date on what was going on.

Except I haven’t done that yet. Here at the one-month mark I’m still not watching the news.

That one hour block of time that used to be spent in front of the television getting “educated” about what was going on in the world has been used for other things.

Here are a few things I accomplished:

I shopped for, purchased and planted colorful flowers for the porch. A few times each week I feed and play with a neighbor’s cat while the neighbor works extra hours.This saves him the cost of a pet sitter and gives me a nice break with a sweet kitty.

I restarted my free online language lessons and have made considerable progress.

That’s not to say I have no clue about what’s been going on in the world.I set my phone to silently send me a few short alerts on selected topics. I can scan those at my leisure and not even click the link to read the articles. Five seconds of looking at the alert summaries tells me all I need to know. With one finger tap, they’re gone, deleted.

If you want to take a news break, give it a few days or a week to try out. Don’t be surprised if you stick with it for much longer. It can be rather peaceful.

NETWORKING STRATEGIES FOR THE DIGITAL AGE

Personalize your connections. The days of sharing a post-work drink with a colleague may be over. But networking in the digital age need not be impersonal. When using professional networking sites such as LinkedIn, personalize the messages you send to other professionals when inviting them to join your network. Use the message to briefly introduce yourself and explain your connection before explaining why you want the person to become part of your network. Welcome any questions and warmly thank them for their time. This personal touch can make you stand out in a digital sea of people, many of whom simply want to add other professionals to their network without necessarily making genuine connections.

1 cup butter, softened

4 eggs

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1⁄2 teaspoon salt

1 21-ounce can cherry pie filling

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 9-by-13-inch pan with parchment paper.

In a stand mixer, or with a hand mixer, cream sugar and butter on low. Add the eggs one at a time. Beat until just combined.

Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Spread a little over half the cake batter into the pan. Evenly spread the pie filling over the top, and spoon the rest of the cake batter over the pie filling. It’s fine if the cherries show through. Bake 35 minutes or until the top has turned slightly golden. Do not overbake. Allow to cool and slice into squares. Enjoy!
