HOW TO KEEP KIDS SAFE ON HALLOWEEN

Opt for face paints over masks: Medical masks may still be worn by some families as precautions against COVID-19. However, when it comes to Halloween costumes, face paints are preferable to masks and other face coverings. Masks tend to limit visibility, which can lead to kids tripping and falling, or even not being able to see cars or other pedestrians. Follow safety instructions when using face paints around the eyes and mouth.

Exploring Historical Fear and Folklore at Genesee Country Village & Museum

In December 1888, the Rochester Democrat and Republican published an article detailing the life of a Dr. Francis Tumblety, a shady character known in many cities for his outlandish mustache, eccentric dress, and medical quackery. Tumblety had grown up in the Rochester area, where his shady reputation began as a teenager selling illicit materials along the Erie Canal. But Tumblety was of particular interest in 1888 because he had been arrested in London on suspicion of committing a series of gruesome murders in the Whitechapel neighborhood – the unsolved crimes attributed to “Jack the Ripper.” ere wasn’t enough evidence to charge Tumblety with the murders, but police held him for trial for another crime, according to casebook. org, a website dedicated to documenting everything about the Jack the Ripper case. Tumblety escaped and was presumed to have fled to New York, where he disappeared from public view. He resurfaced in Rochester several years later and was buried in Holy Sepulchre Cemetery when he died in 1903.

True crime aficionados and historical sleuths have spent the last 137 years trying to solve the Jack the Ripper murders, but Tumblety was a largely unremembered suspect until researchers Stewart P. Evans and Paul Gainey uncovered his name during research for their 1995 book, Jack the Ripper: First American Serial Killer. Today, few devotees to the Jack the Ripper case consider Tumblety a serious suspect, but the fascination with this historical crime lives on around the world and in the Rochester area, too.

Jack the Ripper was the subject of this year’s Spirits of the Past event at Genesee Country Village and Museum. Spirits of the Past is an annual production that combines history and theatre to explore fear and folklore in the 19th century. Lindsay Gall, the special events manager for the museum, was drawn to the idea of watching the tension unfold in the Whitechapel neighborhood as these murders were committed. Gall says, “At its core, this isn’t a show about the killings. It’s about the people of Whitechapel. ere are plenty of books and movies that dwell on the violence itself. Spirits of the Past: Jack the Ripper instead focuses on fear, rumor, and the birth of modern crime reporting.”

It takes months to produce a show like Spirits of the Past: Jack the Ripper. Brainstorming for the next year’s theme begins as soon as one show ends, and Gall and her team spend the first half of the year doing in-depth historical research to ground the script for each show. Auditions take place in August, and the cast typically includes local actors, students, and museum staff members. A Spirits of the Past performance typically includes over 50 dedicated cast and crew as well as the staff who tend to the everyday museum logistics.

For this year’s show, research involved looking through newspaper archives, police records, and letters to understand the facts of the Jack the Ripper case and how the public perceived them at the time. While researching, Gall realized the Jack the Ripper case was a brand-new type of investigation for detectives, both in the forensic techniques

they used and the serialized nature of the murders. She says, “Detectives were experimenting with handwriting analysis and early crime-scene photography for the very first time,” and “ e idea of a single person killing multiple unconnected victims was so foreign that police initially assumed it had to be a gang. at misunderstanding became one of the central tensions in our story.”

It was during research for this year’s Spirits of the Past that Gall first learned Rochester had its own Jack the Ripper suspect in Francis Tumblety. “ e idea that the infamous killer might have been an American was both funny and fascinating,” she says. ough the idea is intriguing, Gall doesn’t think Tumblety holds up as a suspect given all we know today, saying, “Looking through a modern lens, using what we know about psychological profiling and modus operandi, I personally have my doubts about Tumblety.”

Today, Tumblety still pops up on the occasional true crime forum as someone’s favored suspect in the Jack the Ripper case, and you can still visit his grave in Holy Sepulchre Cemetery. ough it’s historically unlikely that Tumblety committed the Whitechapel murders, his reputation and eccentricities live on in both Rochester history and the history of crime.

Gallsays,“Intheend,JacktheRipperremainsastorybalancedbetween what we can prove and what we can only imagine. Human testimonies fade, physical evidence is lost, and false leads are exaggerated, but the fear, the fascination, and the search for truth endures.”

Understanding the Risk Reduction of Statins With Cholesterol

FACTS AND FIGURES ABOUT AUTISM

Nearly one-third of children with ASD (31 percent) have an intellectual disability.

Need Medicare Help?

Q. A.

DEAR DR. ROACH: A cardiologist recently suggested that I should consider taking a statin because of my “borderline” cholesterol level. So, I took a dive into the details of statin therapy. I learned that although statins are thought to reduce the chance of a cardiovascular event by up to 50%, the actual reduction is very small. I presented this information to the cardiologist and decided to forego statin therapy, which he endorsed. A better understanding of this difference would be very valuable to your readers. -- T.G.

ANSWER: The amount of absolute risk reduction from a statin in a person without known heart disease depends mostly on a person’s absolute risk of heart disease. This depends on the person’s risk factors such as age, sex, blood pressure, cholesterol level, smoking status, family history, and others. (When a person already has known heart disease, then the benefits of a statin are so large that this kind of analysis isn’t generally done.)

The relative risk reduction from a statin depends on the potency and dose of a statin, but a typically used number is about a relative risk reduction of 20%. (A 50% relative risk reduction isn’t achievable with the current medication.)

I normally go through this analysis with every patient when considering a statin, and it starts with estimating their absolute risk prior to treatment. There are several calculators to give an estimate; I usually use tinyurl.com/PREVENTCalc and adjust it for any risk factors that are not considered by the calculator. (I should add that some people have difficulty understanding these numbers and simply ask me about my opinion, which is fine, but I prefer to work collegially.)

For example, a 75-year-old man who has a cholesterol level of 220 mg/dL and an HDL of 45 mg/dL with a blood pressure of 140/80 mmHg (all of which might be considered “borderline”), the calculator gives an estimated absolute risk of 19.4%. This is the risk of this person developing any kind of obstructive heart disease, including a heart attack or death, during the next 10 years.

With a statin, a reasonable guess would be a drop of about 20% of the absolute risk (19.4% in this case), meaning a drop to 15.5%. The relative risk reduction is 20%, but the absolute risk reduction for this person is 3.9%.

A second example is a 50-year-old woman with the exact same numbers who has an absolute risk reduction of 3.6%. She would get the same 20% reduction, but this is only a 0.72% drop for a new absolute risk of 2.88%.

Clinicians and epidemiologists use another number called the “number needed to treat” (NNT), which is a function of the absolute risk reduction. In the examples above, about 26 75-year-old men would need to be treated for 10 years to prevent a case of heart attack or death, while 139 50-year-old women would need to be treated to prevent one case.

The benefit of a statin or any other treatment to reduce heart disease depends on how much risk a person has to begin with. Whether this benefit is “worth it” to any given person depends not only on the absolute benefit, but also on their aversion to medicine and their level of worry about heart disease.

The cost of a statin ($5 or $10 a month) isn’t a big consideration for most. Serious side effects to statins are rare, but if they occur, there are alternatives.

Gift giving this year?

A show of hands, please: How many of us are already in a panic about just how we’re going to give holiday gifts to our family and friends this year? With the costs of everything seeming to go up by the day, how are we going to manage to stretch our budgets to include gifts?

And why do we want to, given our circumstances? Because we always have. Because it’s expected. Because it makes us feel good. Because we want to maintain the relationships we’ve had. Whatever our reasons for wanting to give gifts, it’s going to be tough this year. But it can be done with a bit of thought.

If you search on the internet for “gift giving on a budget,” you’ll find thousands of ideas. Most of them seem to fall into one of three categories: experiences, time and love.

A family movie night can be an experience the grandkids long remember. Borrow a selection of age appropriate movies from the library, make popcorn, buy drinks and order pizza. Or ask the local bowling alley about a family price for a few hours of lane time.

Then there’s the gift of time. Give a personalized coupon book you’ve made, good for a special outing, a home cooked meal, gardening help in the spring or hours of child care.

Best of all might well be the gift of love when you make your gifts: a platter of holiday treats, inexpensive glass jars filled with homemade candies, winter hats you knitted, a small bundle of favorite recipes you’ve printed on 3x5 cards. The dollar store offers many ideas such as picture frames you decorate and fill with family photos or artwork. Look for items to create themed gift baskets.

So, gift giving can be done -- unless this is when you finally decide to say, “I can’t do it this year.”

Echoes of Halloween Night

Oh, what an eerie night this is

As the moon hides behind the trees.

Casting a glow sure to chill your bones,

While the trees bend forth with the breeze Alas the little ones still lurk

From behind each tree they peek.

Running together from house to house, a bag full of riches they seek.

My doorbell rings, I jump to my feet. not knowing what I shall find.

Ever so slowly I open my door to see what is lurking behind “Trick or Treat” came the voice of an Angel. Beware of her twinkling eye.

en a long hairy hand slipped over my wrist, “BOO”, and I jumped toward the sky.

OH, For the demons and devils, e beast with the long hairy hand.

It’s the love and laughter that brings us together, And echoes throughout the land.

Dracula, Werewolf and Goblins, One by one, to my door they all came.

Soon a Witch on her broomstick appeared, along with her cat with no name.

I began to bask in my glory.

Each little one I showed my great fright.

Running, giggling “I scared her Mommy!” Echoes of Halloween night.

A LOOK AT THE OLDEST HALLOWEEN

TRADITION

Trick-or-treating: Christianity spread throughout Celtic regions and blended with other rituals. Pope Gregory III expanded on a holiday Pope Boniface IV established to honor Christian martyrs to include all saints and martyrs. All Saints Day on November 1 commemorates the venerable saints, and All Souls Day on November 2 celebrates loved ones who went on to eternal rest. All-Hallows Eve (Halloween) was a time to pay homage to the dead. Poor children would go door to door in more affluent neighborhoods offering to say prayers for residents’ deceased loved ones in exchange for some food or money. This was known as “souling,” which became the basis for trick-or-treating. Later the tradition became known as “guising” in areas of Scotland, where children would go around in costumes.

Each numbered row contains two clues and two answers. e two answers differ from each other by only one letter, which has already been inserted. For example, if you exchange the A from MASTER for an I, you get MISTER. Do not change the order of the letters.

With rising costs and reduced assistance, what does your household anticipate will happen to your budget the final two months of this year?

- There will be no change to my budget this year.

- We will budget more carefully this year, but we should be okay.

- We will go without this year or we will reach out for local assistance to make it through.

- No idea. We’ll see what happens.

November 2

The ancient indigenous people of Mexico have practiced rituals celebrating the lives of past ancestors for around 3,000 years. The celebration that is now known as the Day of the Dead originally landed on the ninth month of the Aztec calendar and was observed for the entire month. In the 20th century, the month long festivities were condensed to three days called The Days of the Dead: Halloween on October 31, Day of the Innocents on November 1, and Day of the Dead on November 2.

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.

Halloween pet safety is a paramount concern

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Please warn your readers to keep their cats indoors on Halloween night! I’ve heard too many stories of cats disappearing or being injured by people with ill intentions -- especially black cats. -- Francis in Des Moines, Iowa

DEAR FRANCIS: It’s a good a idea to keep cats indoors every night, but yes, they face additional threats to their safety on Halloween. The biggest danger is from cars -- traffic is heavier during peak trick-or-treating hours, around sunset. Frequent opening and closing of the front door is another danger: As owners hand out treats in the doorway, their cat may take the opportunity to run outside -- often right into the busy street.

Halloween safety extends to all the pets in the household. Cats are not likely to get into the big bowl of candy near the doorway, but dogs may be fascinated by the wrappers and lovely aromas. If owners don’t keep watch, their dog may overturn the bowl and begin gobbling up chocolate or sugar-free candies that contain xylitol -- an ingredient that is poisonous to them.

While pranksters harming cats (and other pets) can happen, a much more concerning fact is that many people adopt black cats for Halloween, only to abandon them afterward for one reason or another -- they’re too expensive to take care of, their apartment management doesn’t allow pets, and so on. Impulsive adoptions are a bigger risk.

So keep your pets safe on Halloween by placing them in a separate room during the busiest part of trick-or-treating, or duringaparty.Andmakesurethecandystaysoutof theirreach.

Halloween is certainly known for the spooky decorations that adorn homes and for the creative costumes children put on to canvas the neighborhood.But for many youngsters,Halloween is all about the candy. In just a few hours,trick-or-treaters can accumulate a substantial amount of assorted chocolates, confections and other sweet treats. Once everyone has had their fill of their favorite items, candy often gets relegated to a giant bowl on the kitchen table, where it beckons each resident who passes by.

Rather than submitting to the call of the candy and sacrificing your dental health as a result, enterprising individuals can repurpose that leftover Halloween candy.

Every blade in the field, every leaf in the forest, lays down its life in its season, as beautifully as it was taken up. It is the pastime of a full quarter of the year. Dead trees, sere leaves, dried grass and herbs—are not these a good part of our life? And what is that pride of our autumnal scenery but the hectic flush, the sallow and cadaverous countenance of vegetation? its painted throes, withtheNovemberairforcanvas?

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.

Student Academic Features

I enjoy reading the Genesee Valley Penny Saver so much. I do all the puzzles and read every article with interest. As a retired teacher, I especially enjoy the articles about students and their achievements. This week there was an article about Lyla Jones from LeRoy Central School. Without the article in the GVPS, this young lady would not be recognized outside of her community for her success. Now so many more people can celebrate Lyla’s talent.

Community Support for Microfarming

Thank you so much to the Lima community for celebrating agriculture with us at the Pumpkin Festival! Compared to some local outlooks, your willingness to interact, ask questions, and appreciate the value of small ag in our changing economy was a complete breath of fresh air. Keep it up! It was a wonderful festival with a wonderful crowd.

ank You, Sierra!

At the end of August, I was mowing my lawn and disturbed a nest of ground wasps. I was stung many times around my right eye. Within 10 minutes, my face swelled up and my eye closed. I applied ice and Benadryl according to my doctor’s instructions. But at midnight, I awoke with difficulty breathing and shaking and called 911 for myself for the first time in my life. Sierra set an IV to administer meds that saved my life. Thank you doesn’t even come close to my gratitude! I’m a Grandma of 9 and glad to still be here for them and my 3 children! Praise to the calm driver as well, though I didn’t get her name.

Town Board Meetings

How sad that in a small town with a few thousand people in it, only 10 or so show up to a town board meeting. This is your town, your home, your community. Don’t you care about what is currently happening or the future of it? If you’re a younger family, I read something recently that stuck with me and maybe it will for you too: “I don’t know who needs to hear this but we are the new adults. We are responsible for participating in creating community events, programs, attending school board meetings, etc. so when you say things aren’t how they used to be, it’s because you aren’t doing your part.”

Pu ing kids in danger

I work as a sub as a cafeteria monitor. I noticed several pre-K students standing on the seats while they were there for lunch. When I approached them and asked them to sit down before they fell, their teacher, who was there with the teacher’s aid, told me “I got them” and continued to let them do this. This is unacceptable. What will they do next year? They need to learn now. The teacher should want to keep them safe. What would parents think if they knew this?

I step outside and the chilly air tightens the skin on my bare arms. Summer has ended all too quickly, and some of the leaves on the trees have already started to burn with the colors of fall. Fall colors.... so bright and intense and beautiful. It’s like nature is trying to fill you up with color, to saturateyousoyoucanstockpile it before winter turns everything muted and dreary.

DISTRACTIONS THAT CAN AFFECT EFFICIENCY AT WORK

The internet: The CareerBuilder survey found that employers believed the internet is the second biggest productivity killer. Professionals with a lot on their plates should do everything they can to avoid surfing the internet during the workday. The internet can be a rabbit hole, and even individuals who only intend to take a brief break from work to check the news or clear their head may soon find themselves moving from website to website while their work piles up. If it’s a mental break you need, get up and take a brief walk around the office instead of surfing the internet.

DID YOU KNOW?

Retirement can seem like it will never come for young professionals. But time can be a sieve, and retirement age can arriveintheblinkofaneye.Young adults who have not planned accordingly for retirement can findthemselvesinfinancialstraits at a point in their lives when they want to kick back and enjoy themselves. Financial experts fromMoney,CNNandTheMotley Fooladvisethatfinanciallysolvent people should begin saving 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’financialfutures.

HALLOWEEN SUPERSTITIONS REVEALED

Halloween is steeped in tradition. Halloween season also is a time of year when superstitions take root and add to the spooky and often silly nature of the holiday.

Some Halloween traditions can be traced back to the ancient Celts and their belief that spirits of the deceased were able to wander the earth during the time they called Samhain. Costumes were worn so the living could blend in with ghosts, and treats were laid out to appease the spirits. Over the years, additional Halloween superstitions have emerged.
