SPRING CLEANING PROJECTS YOU DON’T WANT TO FORGET
Spring cleaning is an annual tradition in many households. After a winter spent cooped up indoors, spring cleaning can rejuvenate a household and provide a great chance to rid a home of a season’s worth of clutter. Donating old clothes and cleaning out the garage are popular spring cleaning projects, but there are a host of additional tasks homeowners can tackle to freshen up their homes this spring.

&body mind
By Keith Roach, M.D.
DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 75-year-old woman with a weight problem. My weight used to fluctuate from 130-160 pounds.Then I started to notice that I was losing weight slowly but surely on my regular diet. My doctor did not have an answer. Soon I got down to 95 pounds. My family urges me to eat more than I feel comfortable with. I weigh 104 pounds today.
Do you have any idea what could be causing this dramatic weight loss? I still struggle with keeping my weight up to 105 pounds! My height is 5 feet, 4 inches tall, and I really am quite “bony.” Thank you for any help you can give me. -- A.S.
ANSWER: When we see dramatic weight loss like yours (greater than 5% to 10% is generally considered important, and yours is greater than 30%), we think about a few important categories. Of course, some of these aren’t appropriate for you, but I want to give you an idea of what goes through a doctor’s head when we see a person with this much weight loss:
Unfortunately, cancer tends to leap to our minds, even though it’s not the most common cause. A full-body scan isn’t usually indicated or helpful. Instead, a careful and focused history and physical exam will often give clues as to whether cancer is likely.
In addition, doctors want to make sure that the person is up-to-date with their age-appropriate screenings, which include breast and colon cancer screenings in a 75-year-old woman. In a person with a history of smoking, I always consider lung cancer and will usually order at least an X-ray.
A condition that is commonly forgotten when thinking about weight loss is the inability to absorb food properly, and celiac disease is the most common disease to cause this. Diarrhea is common but not always present with this condition.
People can lose calories through their kidneys as well, and diabetes is by far the most likely cause of this, although there are rare other causes. Excess urination is universal in uncontrolled diabetes but can be minimized by the patient.
Endocrine disorders, especially hyperthyroidism, often cause weight loss. Mental health issues, especially depression, are very commonly associated with weight loss. Anorexia nervosa is uncommon but not impossible in older adults.
Any serious disease -- heart, lung, liver and others -- can also cause serious weight loss. Some medications can cause unexpected weight loss as well.
Chronic infections are another important cause of unexplained weight loss. Tuberculosis, HIV and viral hepatitis are the most common, but there are many uncommon and rare infections.
As adults get older, some degree of weight loss is expected, but it is the degree and speed of the weight loss that needs to be considered when deciding whether this is a serious medical issue. Since it sounds like your weight loss has come on quickly, this is more concerning but a bit less so since it seems like it has stabilized. Still, were you my patient, I’d recommend a more thorough evaluation than it sounds like you’ve had.
I learned a valuable lesson after I made a home visit to give a patient a thorough medical evaluation about her continued weight loss. I found that she had inadequate food at home and was too embarrassed to tell me.
Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2025 King Features Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

I was in a collision (safe and well, all repairable!), that really set me back and felt like a big hurdle to get through. A huge shout out to Kolb Family Automotive for taking so much stress away! Dan and the team stayed on top of everything and made it completely seamless. They answered my many questions with genuine respect and were incredibly kind–a complete shocker based on other car shop experiences I’ve had before. With kindness from day one, they truly reflected the personal touch of a family owned business. Thank you for being honest, professional, and quick to get me back on the road!
Leash your dogs!
At [local park] today, an off leash dog ran up to my dog and jumped up on me. Its owner yelled, “He’s friendly!” So what? You don’t know if MY dog is friendly or reactive. In public places, LEASH YOUR DOG. If you want your dog to run around off-leash, rent or build your own PRIVATE fenced in area. My dog was small, but next time your off leash dog approaches a less friendly, large dog, it could be really bad, violent, or even deadly. It’s common sense, be respectful of the park, and respectful of your community. You and your dog ain’t special. Next time I’m reporting you to the cop who was sitting across the street.
Appalling state of [local business] grounds
On a recent visit to [local business], I was very disturbed at the state of the outside of the building. Decorative trees that should be trimmed and shaped each year are overgrown. The trees are taller than the building and encroaching on each other to make it look like a jungle. Where shrubs were once planted to enhance the entrance way is now filled with only weeds and dried dirt. What would it take to have a company come in twice a year and trim trees and shrubs and do some clean up? The [local business] should be ashamed at the impression their patrons get when stopping in or driving past one of the most visited facilities in the [local town].

Ra lesnakes are a risk for dogs
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I moved from a suburb to the mountains a couple of months ago,and while my dogs are thrilled to have several acres to run free on, I’m terrified that they will be bitten by rattlesnakes. A neighbor said that they are plentiful out here. How can I prevent this, and what do I do if they get bitten? -- Larry in Tennessee
DEAR LARRY: While there is always a risk of a dog getting injured by something out in the countryside, it’s important not to let fear get the best of you. Instead, focus on prevention. Here are some of the things you can do to minimize their overall risk of injury -- from snakes and other potential risks.
-- Train your dogs to come when you call them; if your property is big enough that they run out of sight, train them to respond to a whistle, which carries much farther.
-- Rattlesnakes (and other snakes) hang out in messy debris piles, wood stacks and crevices with overhangs. They stay out of sight (they’re much more afraid of you and your dogs) unless they are threatened. Clear debris piles off of your property, and stack your firewood on a raised platform, at least 5 feet from your home’s foundation.
-- If your dogs consistently run to one location on your property, follow them and find out what’s so interesting. An animal lair or deer run can be very interesting to dogs, but the same location can attract bigger predators.
-- Consider fencing in a half-acre or acre behind your house and keep your dogs within the fence; you’ll be able to monitor them better and control the space, so critters don’t come in.

GRADUATION ETIQUETTE
Handle limited seats with courtesy. Many schools limit the number of seats each student can reserve for guests. This can make it tricky when there are a number of people who are worthy of an invite. Explain to friends and family who you cannot invite that you would love to have them there but are restricted by ticket allotments. Try to have both sides of the family represented. Usually an invite to the after-party will thwart any hard feelings.

King CROSSWORD
What is Juneteenth?
Juneteenth stands for June 19, and commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. On June 19, 1865, General Order No. 3 was issued by Major General Gordon Granger at Galveston, Texas, proclaiming, “The people of Texas are informed that in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor.”
How is Juneteenth celebrated?
Juneteenth is often celebrated with cookouts, picnics, parades, family reunions, church services, concerts and other community festivities. Many people observe Juneteenth as a day of service. It’s also a time to reflect on history, recognize the wrongs of the past, build community, promote cultural awareness and focus on social justice.
Why didn’t the Emancipation Proclamation end slavery?
Although the Emancipation Proclamation declared all enslaved people in “rebellious” states legally free in 1863, it was not implemented in some southern states. The enslaved people of Texas were not effectively freed until federal troops took control of the state in 1865 and announced that enslaved people were emancipated by executive decree. This day came to be known as Juneteenth.
DID YOU KNOW?
Juneteenth was signed into law as a federal holiday by President Joe Biden on June 17, 2021. Teacher and activist Opal Lee, known as the “Grandmother of Juneteenth” was instrumental in this effort. The holiday is also known as Juneteenth Independence Day, Freedom Day and Emancipation Day.

SUNY BROCKPORT’S
FANNIE BARRIER WILLIAMS PROJECT
Honors the Legacy of a Pioneering Reformer
BY SUZIE WELLS
“She speaks of her time, but also it echoes to now.”
DR. MICHAEL J. KRAMER
When Associate Professor of History, Dr. Michael J. Kramer, arrived at SUNY Brockport in 2019, the Liberal Arts building was being renamed to honor SUNY Brockport (at the time Brockport Normal School)’s first African American graduate, Fannie Barrier Williams. He wondered who the honoree was, and that question sparked a vibrant academic movement on campus.
A freeborn woman of mixed racial ancestry born and raised in Brockport (57 Erie Street was her childhood home), Fannie Barrier Williams (1855–1944) led a life that intertwined advocacy, artistry, intellect, and reform during one of the most transformational periods in American history. Raised in a town in which she said, “there could not have been a relationship more cordial, respectful, and intimate than that of our family and the white people of this community,” but when she went south to teach, she experienced such segregation, discrimination, and physical assault that she said, “Everything I learned and experienced in my innocent social relationships in NY had to be unlearned.”
Williams spoke at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, broke barriersasthefirstAfricanAmericanadmittedtotheeliteChicago Women’s Club, and pushed for the rights of African American women, working-class communities, and all who struggled under racism and sexism in the Progressive Era. She helped found the National League of Colored Women, served as Vice President of the Illinois Woman’s Alliance (a predominantly white organization at the time), and Williams was “the only Black American to eulogize Susan B Anthony at the National American Woman Suffrage Association Convention.”
Inspired by this multifaceted, fascinatinglegacy,Kramerlaunched the Fannie Barrier Williams Project at SUNY Brockport to not only explore her story, but to make her voice resonate with students and the broader public today. What began as personal curiosity became a full-scale public history initiative that bridges coursework, community engagement, digital humanities, and interdepartmental collaboration.

Kramer says Williams “le a remarkable set of speeches and essays, so students (and I) were able to really listen directly to her voice coming down the years with perspectives on race relations, class relations in an industrializing America,religionandspirituality, education, art, and the place of women in society … She speaks of her time, but also it echoes to now.”
Reflecting on our nation’s current continued struggle with racism, sexism, inequality, and injustice, Kramer says, “Americans still are trying to figure out what it means to be free, how to advance as individuals and also, at the same time, create institutions and attitudes that help each other out in the world.” Williams “le something to say about her moment that also matters now,” Kramer adds.
Over 75 students have participated directly in the FBW Project through research seminars and independent studies, with many more encountering her story through displays, presentations, and outreach. Introduction to Public History and Fannie Barrier Williams Project courses offered unique opportunities for students to conduct research, analyze primary texts, and reimagine Williams’ legacy in today’s world.
One especially impactful moment came during a class visit to the Brockport Museum of Local History. Students saw firsthand the personal artifacts from Williams’ home—her organ, couch, and most remarkably, a misfiled scrapbook of her writings that had been unknowingly preserved for decades. e rediscovery of this scrapbook made history tangible and immediate for the students.
e FBW Project isn’t confined to the classroom. With support from the Mellon Foundation Digital Ethnic Futures TeachingConsortium,andcross-campuscollaborationswith Art, Social Work, African and African American Studies, and Women and Gender Studies, students have developed digital timelines, table tent cards, exhibition proposals, and posters—all based on Fannie Barrier Williams’ own words. ese projects asked students to think not only about research, but also about communication—how to share historical insight in accessible, meaningful ways.

“Some students tried to imagine what she would do and say facing today’s problems,” Kramer notes. “What would a modern-day settlement house look like? How would she use social media? is kind of work helps students both do history and think forward.”
Dr. Kramer emphasizes that the project also highlights the value of public investment in education and historical inquiry. Kramer says we should all learn about those who came before us, especially in Western NY, a “hotbed in the 19th century of commerce [Erie Canal], abolitionism, religious freedom, and an embrace of freedom and liberty overall.” ose like Fannie Barrier Williams who were proud Western New Yorkers and worked to make the world a better place should be recognized and learned from.
Beyond the university, project leaders encourage community members to get involved. e project’s Friends of Fannie Barrier Williams initiative, co-organized by Social Work Professor Nicole Cesnales, invites public participation in preserving and promoting her memory—whether through grave site care, exhibitions at libraries and local events, or uncovering long-lost family materials. In fact, one mystery remains: while Williams was also a painter, none of her artworks are currently known to exist. Are they still out there in a local attic or archive? Project coordinators welcome community insights.
e FBW Project’s comprehensive website (see below), serves as a digital home for essays, timelines, quotations, and student-curated exhibits. It not only preserves Williams’ legacy but makes it available for anyone to engage with.
“People often ask, ‘History—what are you going to do with that?’ But the real question is, what can’t you do with that kind of learning? It helps young people ground themselves and position themselves in today’s world.”
Indeed, through Fannie Barrier Williams, students at SUNY Brockport are learning that history isn’t just something we study—it’s something we carry forward.

Summer Heat Safety
Before we know it, we’ll need to move into hot weather mode and take steps to stay healthy and safe in the heat.
For me, most important is keeping the house cool, since that’s where I spend most of my time. The air conditioning will be set at 76 to 78 degrees, depending on the humidity.
Very soon I’ll need to put up the insulated sun-blocking blackout drapes on the sunny side of the living room where the afternoon heat can bake the outside wall. Each morning I’ll close those drapes before the sun moves around to that side of the house.
Next on my daily list will be to fill my water bottles -- a half-dozen 8-ounce bottles that I can periodically grab during the day. With the little bottles, it’s easy to keep track of how much hydration I’m getting.
But we can’t always stay home. If you have to go out in the heat, wear light, loose clothing and a hat with a wide brim.
Ask your doctor to clarify what your water intake should be during the summer.
Keep an eye on the weather news so you’ll know what to expect.
Ask your town if they’ve set up any cooling centers, or head to the library or mall during the hottest part of the day.
Keep track of how you feel in the summer heat. If you have weakness, nausea, dizziness or headache, it could be heat exhaustion or even lead to heat stroke. Get help -- don’t delay.
If you’re afraid to run the air conditioner for fear it will increase your electric bill, see if you can get some financial help from LIHEAP (Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program) at 866674-6327. Churches and town halls are other possible sources of assistance. (c) 2025 King Features Synd., Inc.
DID YOU KNOW?
Broadening one’s horizons through crafting can be a worthwhile pursuit. Crafting can serve as a relaxing pastime and provide an opportunity to learn rewarding skills. Learning to crochet is one way for men and women to combine creativity and practicality. Crochet is a form of handwork using yarn and a crochet hook. According to the Crochet Guild of America, there’s no way to know just how old the art of crochet is. However, crochet expert Annie Potter has said the modern form of the art originated in the 16th century, primarily in France and England. Others surmise crocheting traces its origins to Arabia before it spread westward through various Mediterranean trade routes.

PACKING PREP POINTERS for Campers
BIG BENEFITS OF SUMMER CAMP
Build social skills by teaching kids to act cooperatively and make friends.
Develop confidence and feelings of competency through new experiences.
Increase healthy physical activity, active play and outdoor enjoyment.
Help kids unplug from screen time and reconnect with the world around them.
Foster independence by letting kids explore and make their own choices in a safe environment.
Here are some tips to follow from the American Camp Association before packing your bags for summer camp:
• Plan ahead by “test-driving” a day living out of a backpack or suitcase.
• Review your camp’s packing lists.
• Label all clothes and belongings with your child’s name.
• Break in any new shoes or hiking boots ahead of time.
ANXIOUS CAMPER?
• Let kids participate in choosing the camp and shopping for gear.
• Focus on fun things about camp kids can look forward to, and acknowledge any concerns they have.
• Plan a sleepover or two to ease the transition to a sleepaway camp.
• Avoid communicating your own anxiety about the separation, and keep goodbyes short and positive.
• Make a communication plan based on the camp’s guidelines.
• Help kids make realistic, goal-oriented plans for making friends or specific camp activities that concern them.
The Child Mind Institute offers these tips for helping anxious kids prep to enjoy summer camp:
GENERAL CONTRACTING
Inspiration: One oft-overlooked benefit of working with professional contractors is the likelihood that they can draw up ideas for projects that homeowners might otherwise never have thought up on their own. Homeowners without specific ideas in mind can ask contractors to come up with various scenarios before committing to a particular one. Veteran contractors can draw on years of experience to create designs that DIYers might be incapable of coming up with and/or incapable of seeing through to completion.

With the number of U.S. high school graduates projected to steadily decline through 2041 according to the College Board and Lumina Foundation, what do you think will be the biggest impact on American society?
- Shrinking workforce and economic slowdown
- Strain on Social Security and aging population support
- Fewer college graduates and reduced innovation
- Changes in housing and urban development
- Greater emphasis on immigration to sustain population
- All of the above
- None of the above

FACTORS TO CONSIDER BEFORE CONVERTING AN ATTIC
Climate control: Attics are converted to provide residents with more livable space. Converted space is only livable if the climate within the attic can be controlled so it’s cool in the summer and warm in the winter. An existing HVAC unit needs to efficiently heat and cool an extra room. If it can’t, bills might spike because the rest of the home likely won’t be as comfortable, forcing homeowners to adjust thermostats to offset that discomfort. That also could affect the unit’s life expectancy. Before going forward with an attic renovation, homeowners should contact HVAC professionals to determine if attic spaces can be serviced with the existing units and ductwork, or if an alternative arrangement must be worked out to make the spaces
Does Your Family Have a Fire Escape Plan? (Family Features) When a home fire occurs, you have very little time to get out. A working smoke alarm doubles your chances of survival, yet more than twenty percent of American homes are without them. Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs teamed up to address this problem by providing vital fire safety information to families. Make a Plan Installing smoke alarms on every level of the home and developing a plan of escape can give your family precious minutes to get out and get to safety. Draw a floor plan of your home and sketch exit routes out of every room. Make sure you have a fire escape ladder long enough to reach the ground from upstairs rooms. Assign an outside meeting place, so you can quickly locate each other

CONSERVE ENERGY AROUND THE OFFICE
Conservation methods can help save energy and preserve natural resources, but business owners may also be intrigued by the potential cost-savings of conservation.
Utility costs vary depending on the size of a business, but the U.S. Small Business Administration notes that prospective business owners must estimate and include such costs when seeking loans to start their businesses. Estimated utility costs can be intimidating, especially for those owners who have never before owned their own businesses. Traditional conservation methods like recycling and reusing are great ways to conserve and save around the office, but business owners also can embrace some other ways to lower their office energy costs while benefitting the planet at the same time.
