Emphasize time management.

Hectic schedules can quickly derail resolutions. Many people want to eat healthier and exercise more but find their time is stretched pretty thin, which can make it difficult to get to the gym or prepare healthy meals at home.

Finding ways to manage time more effectively can make it easier to stay committed to New Year’s resolutions. Right down your daily schedule and look for ways to free up time. If you routinely take an hour for lunch each day, use that time to exercise and eat at your desk when you return from your walk, workout or jog. Try to wake up 30 to 60 minutes earlier each morning to exercise, and make use of time before bed by preparing a healthy lunch for the following day.

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

How to Give Your Pet a Healthy, Happy New Year

Gemma. She doesn’t like visitors, humans or other live pets but she warms up to these friends.

Cats make wonderful pets. Cats have not undergone major changes since being domesticated, and their ancient characteristics still make them desirable companions to this day.

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: This week, many Americans are celebrating their newest gift to the family: a cute puppy or kitten, duck or chicken, or pocket pets like hamsters and guinea pigs.

It’s also a time to form new resolutions in anticipation of the New Year.

I hope that new pet owners’ first resolution will be to establish a relationship with a veterinarian with expertise in their specific pet. Some pets need to start or continue a vaccination schedule so they grow up healthy -- puppies are at risk of contracting parvovirus, for example, so bolstering their immune system is very important.

Your vet can also provide advice and tips for caring for pets.

Guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits communicate happiness or distress in unique ways that a new owner may not be familiar with. Puppies are wiggly and energetic. Kittens are curious and fearless. Vets can help new owners navigate these waters and provide regular checkups to help keep pets healthy. -- Dedicated Vet in Boston DEAR DEDICATED: Thank you for sending this! Establishing a care routine with a veterinarian is so important. It should sit at the top of owners’ to-do lists, along with providing comfortable warm bedding, a clean and safe environment, and especially for puppies, a daily training routine. Mark your calendar with key dates, including checkups with the vet, appointments with a trainer and regular resupply of food, litter, bedding and everything else your new pet needs.

H(c) 2023 King Features Synd., Inc.

Send your tips, comments or questions to ask@pawscorner.com. .

Send us a photo! and a brief write-up of your pet and we’ll feature it!

Submit at: gvpennysaver.com under Share With Us or mail to: P.O. Box 340, Avon, NY 14414.

Pets will be published at discretion of GVPS.

TIPS TO FIND THE RIGHT LAWYER Recognize what you need. Lawyers specialize in many different areas of the law, so finding the right lawyer is not a one-size-fits-all venture. Someone who needs help with estate planning will be looking for a different lawyer than someone seeking a personal injury specialist. Individuals are urged to identify which services they need and then narrow their search to include only those lawyers who specialize in providing them.

Fair Housing Statement All real estate advertised in the Genesee Valley Penny Saver is subject to the Federal Fair Housing Act, which makes it illegal to advertise any preference, limitation, or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, age, marital status, handicap, familial status, or national origin, or intention to make any such preference, limitation or discrimination.

We will not knowingly accept any advertising for real estate which is in violation of the law. All persons are hereby informed that all dwellings advertised are available on an equal opportunity basis.

TIPS FOR REALIZING GOALS IN THE YEAR AHEAD The dawn of a new year represents a chance to start anew and set goals for the months ahead. New Year’s resolutions are often made to provide the motivation people need to improve their lives and make a new year as productive and happy as possible.

While people who make New Year’s resolutions fully intend to realize those goals, few actually stick to the game plan. According to researchers at the University of Scranton, just 8 percent of people who make their New Year’s resolutions actually achieve those resolutions. While that might make it seem like the odds are against men and women who have resolved to improve their lives in the year ahead, adults can realize their goals for the new year and beyond.

WHEN IT’S TIME TO CALL IN A TUTOR Declining test scores: Some students are simply poor test takers, but a gradual or sudden decline in test scores may indicate students are having trouble mastering material. Teachers can pinpoint if certain concepts are overly challenging to students and notify parents if there are any problem areas.

CAST YOUR VOTE

Visit gvpennysaver.com and vote for your favorite Pet Of The Year!

The winning pet will have $50 donated to a local animal shelter in his/her name.

Voting ends January 19th.

REDUCE RADON IN YOUR HOME One of the most popular methods of reducing radon concentrations involves a process called active soil depressurization, or ASD. This is a cost-effective and reliable technique to reduce radon that involves capturing the radon from beneath a building before it can enter the dwelling. A venting system draws the radon gas from the soil beneath the foundation and exhausts it outside of the building - far away from windows and other home openings. A continuously operating fan draws and discharges the radon outdoors.

Radon that has infiltrated water supplies may require other removal methods. Such methods may require spraying water into a contained air space, introducing air bubbles into the water or storing water in a tank until the radon has decayed. Another method employs granular activated carbon (GAC) to remove radon from the water. The GAC method has been more widely tested and is more commonly used in individual homes, according to the EPA.

Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia, w hich is a problem w ith the rate or rhythm of the heartbeat during w hich the heart can beat too fast, too slow or w ith an irregular rhythm. Atrial fibrillation, or AF, occurs w hen rapid, disorganized electrical signals cause the atria, w hich consists of the heart’s tw o upper chambers, to contract very fast and irregularly. According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, w hen a person is suffering from AF, blood begins to pool in his or her atria. W hile that blood pools in the atria, it is not being pumped completely into the heart’s tw o low er chambers, and this prevents the low er and upper chambers from w orking together effectively. Though AF does not alw ays produce noticeable symptoms, some people w ith AF experience chest pain or heart failure, especially w hen the heart rhythm is rapid. AF can increase a person’s risk of stroke, and it may surface periodically or become an ongoing problem that lasts for years.

Here’s a Tip * If you like taking baths, you can invest in a second rubber bath mat to drape over the side of the tub. The edge will be nonslip, so you can hold on for support and your hands will not slide. * Sunburn happens in the winter too, especially on the slopes. Use a cotton ball soaked in cold tea to ease tight dry skin. Be sure you apply sunscreen to your face and wear eye protection when going out to play in the snow. * For drains slowed by grease, sprinkle a half-cup each of salt and baking soda down the drain, and follow it with an entire kettle or pot of boiling water. * If the smell in your cedar chest has faded, you can bring it back easily with extra-fine sandpaper. A very light sanding is all it takes in most cases. (c) 2023 King Features Synd., Inc.

BUILD A BUDGET THAT WORKS FOR YOU Determine your net income. The Bank of America notes that net income, also known as “take-home pay,” is the foundation of a budget. In the era of direct deposit, it can be easy for anyone to forget how much money they’re taking in each month. Salaried workers can determine their net income pretty quickly and easily, while workers who are paid by the hour and freelancers may need to do a little extra work and serve as their own bookkeepers as they try to calculate their net incomes.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO HELP RESOLUTIONS STICK THIS YEAR Start small when picking resolutions.

Rather than resolving to lose 50 pounds, start with a more manageable goal, such as losing 10 pounds.

When you reach the goal, you will feel more confident and then you can up the ante.

For millenia, people around the world have commemorated the arrival of a new calendar year by adhering to various traditions. Once such tradition is making resolutions for the year ahead. Resolutions are promises to oneself geared around personal fulfillment and betterment.

Resolutions are widely practiced, but some people may not understand the origins of New Year’s resolutions and why they have become the norm.

Some historians tie the practice of making resolutions to the ancient Babylonians. More than 4,000 years ago, the Babylonians celebrated the New Year in March rather than January. The spring harvest was in March, and a festival called Akitu, which lasted 12 days, was celebrated.

An important part of the festival was the crowning of a new king. Special rituals also affirmed a connection to the gods. The Babylonians made promises to the gods, which included vows to return borrowed objects and pay outstanding debts.

Resolutions can also be traced to ancient Rome. The Romans were instrumental in creating a more formal calendar, and the start of the new year was moved from March to January (January and February were added to the Roman calendar under the rule of Numa Pompilius).

Julius Caesar wanted to honor January’s namesake, Janus, the Roman god of beginnings. Janus’ two faces enabled him to look back into the past and forward into the future. Sacrifices to Janus were made, and worshipers exchanged gifts with one another. A custom of setting resolutions began during this period as well, with Romans promising to be good to one another.

Eventually, these resolutions were funneled into prayers and fasting when Christianity was adopted by the Roman Empire. Other religious parallels include the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, which is a day of atonement and reflection as celebrants examine their wrongdoings and seek forgiveness and to behave better moving forward. Yom Kippur follows Rosh Hashanah, Judaism’s own new year.

Resolutions also may be loosely tied to Medieval times. During this time, knights took a “peacock vow” at the end of the Christmas season. Each year, these knights would reaffirm their commitment to chivalry.

Today New Year’s resolutions are largely a secular tradition, but they’re still connected to a desire to be a good person and put one’s best self forward.

DID YOU KNOW? Wedding insurance can provide couples who are about to tie the knot with some peace of mind on their big days. Many wedding venues require couples carry liability coverage in the case of accidents, injuries or incidents. But wedding insurance policies may even surprise couples with regard to what they cover. Each policy is different, and couples may be able to customize wedding insurance policies to cover a host of items. Many policies cover couples in the wake of cancellations or postponements due to weather, damage to the facility or even a change of heart on the part of the couple holding the policy. But some policies may provide coverage for couples should their photographers and/or caterers fail to appear.

Policies may also cover lost, stolen or damaged items, including equipment rentals, bridal growns, jewelry, and/or gifts. Couples should speak with their wedding venue representative to determine if the venue offers extended coverage and ultimately compare those offerings to policy estimates they receive on their own.

Holiday Good Samaritans Save the Day I wish to thank 3 VERY kind people when our car died at Wegmans Holt Rd parking lot Sat., 12/30 at 10:30AM. I foolishly left my phone at home with my AAA contact info.

A Gretchen’s Hallmark clerk let me use her phone to call my sister who wasn’t home. A Wegmans customer service person was very eager to help IF I couldn’t find a cable jump from another car in the lot. While I was in Wegmans, a man saw my husband with the hood up and offered a jump (he refused payment). The car started immediately and these 2 panic stricken seniors were SO relieved at the ‘kindness of strangers.’

Blessings to all of you and may I be so lucky to “pay this kindness forward!”

The Coffee Press - 12/20/23 @ 9:10AM I wanted to say thank you to a kind stranger who assisted me at The Coffee Press on 12/20/2023 at around 9:10-9:25AM. I was at The Coffee Press where they had frosted Christmas cookies displayed. I grabbed one and when I went to pay for it, I was told that it was Cash Only. As I was about to exit The Coffee Press a young man who was another customer stopped me and handed me a cookie and wished me a Merry Christmas. What this individual did not know at that moment was that I was trying to buy the cookie for my mom, who is in the final stages of dementia. Those frosted cookies are one of the few things that she enjoys and that’s why I wanted to purchase one to bring to her. She enjoyed them immensely. Unfortunately in my rush, I do not feel that I thanked this kind stranger enough and hope to return the favor and hope someone can help me.

The person was in their 20s, dark-haired and accompanied by a couple of friends.

Thanks! AP.

Get Off Your Cell Phone While shopping at our local big box store I ran into a mini traffic (shopping cart) jam. Four people trying to get down an isle at the same time.

We were all patiently waiting for a lady to move over then realized she was on her cell phone, oblivious to others. Finally, one squeezed past her and had the audacity to touch carts going through. The look she gave him was ridiculous!

I honestly believe if she said anything to him he would’ve grabbed her phone and thrown it across the store. If you’re on your phone, move out of the way. Plus nobody wants to listen to your conversations!

New Medical Building Needs Improvements The cavernous, centralized out-of-town medical building lacks aged/disabled community information. Barrier free, and medical bus transport parking information needs to become disseminated. Hours, phone numbers, and floor locations of these various, now centralized medical offices need to become publicly well-advertised.

While centralized services may be useful in urban areas, rural villages' smaller, convenient, local offices are at an unfortunate loss, especially with this region's tricky weather. Telephone calls to one's primary provider receptionists are often on hold for one half hour to make an appointment, which is much too long. These improvements could be implemented without great cost to corporate and make this behemoth more responsive to this aged, agrarian community's medical needs.

Blood Bank Turns Away Donor With High Iron Levels

Discover the Human Touch in Hearing Technology

Accepting New Patients.

Lakeville

---

3513 Thomas Dr., Suite 2

DEAR DR. ROACH: Recently, I was rejected from donating plasma (not blood) because my iron that day was 57 mcmol/L, and the maximum allowable was 54 mcmol/L. I was rescheduled to get retested in a few days. The technician said to eat beans and similar foods to lower my iron levels.

I checked my own records and didn’t find any results that fell below the cutoff. My red blood cell count was 5.15; my white blood cell count was 6.0; my hemoglobin level was 16.1 g/dL; and my hematocrit level was 48.5%, all within the healthy range.

Which test results could they be referring to, and how do I lower my iron? -- S.L. ANSWER: Blood banks typically screen donors for anemia, which is frequently caused by iron deficiency, but I’m confused as to why they are screening you with iron tests because that is typically not done.

Moreover, they are telling you that your iron is too high, which is the opposite of the iron-deficiency anemia that is usually looked for.

I recommend that you see your own physician and get retested. If we take the blood bank at their word, and your iron level is too high, that raises the possibility of hereditary hemochromatosis (HH), which is caused by a defect of iron absorption. With this condition, your body absorbs as much iron as possible, even if it doesn’t need any. This causes iron overload, which damages the heart, liver, bone marrow, adrenal glands, skin and joints, just to name a few.

HH is easy to treat once the diagnosis is made.

However, making the diagnosis requires thinking about the possibility, and it’s uncommon enough that a lot of healthcare professionals don’t think about it right away. Your doctor should test your iron and ironbinding capacity, as well as your ferritin level, which tends to correlate with the total amount of body iron stores.

But I don’t want to jump to conclusions, which is why your own doctor should test you to see if you really do have excess iron. ***

Do you have HEEL pain or ARCH pain?

HEEL SPUR SYNDROME/PLANTAR FASCIITIS is a common problem among people who are active. It starts as a dull intermittent pain in the heel and progresses to a sharp persistent pain. Classically, it is worse in the morning with the first few steps, after sitting, after standing or after walking.

• Plantar fasciitis often begins with irritation and tearing of the fibrous band of tissue on the bottom of the foot, which may eventually result in the formation of a heel spur.

• Contributing factors: Flat pronated feet, high arched feet, poor shoe support, increased age, sudden weight increase, increased activity level, family tendency.

• 95% of our patients’ symptoms are resolved with conservative treatment, avoiding surgical intervention.

• We also offer surgical procedures with the best post op success rates using Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy techniques (minimal incisions and scarring; often back in a shoe in 1 week).

DRY SOCKET SOLUTIONS Dry socket is a painful condition that sometimes occurs after a tooth extraction. Normally, a blood clot forms over the extraction site when a tooth is removed. The blood clot protects the underlying bone and nerves in the empty tooth socket. It also provides the foundation for new gum tissue and bone to form over the socket. Dry socket happens when the blood clot fails to form or dislodges before the extraction site has healed, exposing the underlying bone and nerves. It usually occurs one to three days after an extraction. To treat dry socket, your dentist will remove any food debris from the tooth socket and then fill it with a medicated paste or dressing.

We dedicate ourselves to keeping our patients out of the dental chair with our focus on prevention. We

provide the highest quality of preventive services so that you’ll spend less time in treatment and more time enjoying your healthy smile. We offer complete general dental care, including full mouth reconstruction, repair of any damage caused by neglect or trauma, and the all-important periodic cleanings.

We also provide cosmetic dentistry for the sunniest smiles possible.

Susan B. Anthony House: A Glimpse into the Heart of Suffrage History

BY SUZIE WELLS

I

n preparation for the upcoming Day of History competition, my daughter and her groupmates recently joined their teacher at Rochester’s Susan B. Anthony house. Thankfully, the group didn’t mind me and another daughter tagging along for the tour that day. What a treasure right in town!

Unassuming from the outside (though a little taller than expected, and we learned Anthony’s team outgrew the space and raised the roof to add a third floor so the team could have more space), I would never have imagined 17 Madison St. held such a treasure. On our visit, we toured the spaces Anthony, her family, and her suffragist team called home through those incredible years. The preservation and education organization has done an incredible job bringing history alive for visitors. Their goal/vision statement of inspiring others through Anthony’s life and work truly seems effective.

Born in Adams, MA in 1820, the second of seven children, Anthony attended school in Battenville, NY but she and her sister were pulled from school when their father Daniel learned the girls weren’t allowed to learn the same subjects as the boys. The Anthony family then opened their own home to serve as a school, teaching boys and girls as equals. The family moved to Rochester in 1845, and the following year Susan began teaching at Canajoharie Academy.

The Anthony household became a meeting place for anti-slavery activists such as Frederick Douglass. In 1851, Anthony attended an anti-slavery convention in Seneca Falls, and the rest was history.

Never one to allow someone else to tell her what to think or say, Anthony met with Amelia Bloomer (founder of the very-practical pants, allowing women freedom of movement with their attire) and listened to impassioned speeches at the convention. There, she also met Elizabeth Cady Stanton.

Anthony and Stanton ended up quite the pair as the movement gained traction. Anthony is known for her confidence, her courage in the face of adversity, her legal expertise, and her poignant speeches. The SBA House docent shared a few nuggets such as Anthony’s purposeful choice to always wear modest, no frills, black and white acceptably feminine outfits so her audience would pay attention to her ideas and not simply comment on or criticize her for statement-making attire, such as happened when Bloomer and other such revolutionaries tried to share their opinions but with socially unacceptable bloomers on.

Anthony, her sister Mary, and their mother Lucy, moved into the Madison St. home in 1865 as tenants. Lucy purchased the home a year later, and Mary purchased it from her mother in 1873. Susan purposefully never married, so she could focus on her anti-slavery and women’s rights campaign, free to travel solo and spread the word. Traveling often by train or coach, Anthony traveled light but became known for her purse.

swim,” and they call for the doctor, the nurse, and the lady with the alligator purse. Over the years, I had forgotten how the rhyme went, except that versions always had the lady with the alligator purse prescribe something other than penicillin or aspirin as the doctor and nurse did (I seem to remember she prescribes pizza). According to the docent, the rhyme ends with the lady with the alligator purse saying “Vote!” We should all treasure our freedom and rights to vote by educating ourselves on the issues of the day, and making our voices heard through the ballot box as women such as Anthony worked hard to attain.

“One of the world’s greatest revolutionaries,” Anthony was famously arrested in Rochester in 1872 for voting when it was not yet socially acceptable (and debatably legal) for women to do so.

As the docent explained, Anthony happily let herself be arrested instead of quietly paying a fine and being scolded. As she awaited trial, she continued to lecture and spread ideas of women’s and African American rights, stirring up so much controversy that she had to be tried in the next county over. Hence, the Ontario County Courthouse in Canandaigua famously hosted her trial.

Anthony’s trial itself caused controversy. She was fined $100 after the judge refused to hear Anthony’s arguments and ordered the jury to find her guilty. However, as the docent explained with a laugh, Anthony never paid that fine because she felt it unjust.

Anthony died in 1906, unfortunately years before women officially attained the right to vote, but to this day, women across Rochester trek to Mt. Hope Cemetery, placing their I Voted stickers on her grave, paying homage and thanking Anthony for her hard work and service.

February 7th, the organization celebrates Anthony’s birthday “in the same way [she] hosted her birthday celebrations during her lifetime; this will be an opportunity to encourage one another in the pursuit of equality and give in support of the mission.” Explore the “Tracks of Change” laid by Susan B. Anthony that guide us to a stronger, more just community,” as the organization says.

What an incredible historical resource we have right in the city.

Upstairs in Anthony’s office, when the docent showed us Anthony’s iconic alligator purse and recollected the children’s rhyme of Miss Lulu (I remember Miss Lucy or even Miss Suzie, which was fun, because my own name was in a song not made up by me) and her baby, Tiny Tim, who she “put in the bathtub to see if he could

THINGS TO LOOK FOR IN A NEW JOB Commute: Bending over backwards simply to get to work and then get home from work can have an incredibly negative impact on your life. A study from the Office of National Statistics in the United Kingdom found that commuters, especially those who spend between 60 and 90 minutes commuting to work, have lower life satisfaction and lower levels of happiness compared to people who don’t commute. Before accepting a job offer, estimate your commute time to and from the new office and try to determine the impact of that commute on your quality of life.
