A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough. RECOGNIZING A STROKE Thank God for the sense to remember the ‘3’ steps, STR. Read and learn! Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
I have an open mind--it’s just closed for repairs. Give me ambiguity or give me something else.
Turn on the lights and noise - A home that looks occupied is less likely to be targeted by criminals. Leave some lights on when you leave. You can also turn on a radio or television to provide some noise. Your pet may even like to watch the television while you are gone, which can prevent boredom. Consider monitoring your home - Security monitoring companies can provide security systems that will call for help in the event of a break-in. Responders will often overlook pets that might be hiding or injured. Let the monitoring company know that you have pets so they can inform the police and fire personnel that respond to a call. You can also request monitored smoke detectors. This is an early detection system that could save your pet’s life. Don’t leave your key under the matBurglars routinely look under mats, flower pots, and on window ledges for spare keys. Don’t leave an extra key in these locations. Get creative and place your spare key in a more hidden location away from the front door.
S *Ask the individual to SMILE. T *Ask the person to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (i.e. It is sunny out today). R *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS. If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call 911 immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. New Sign of a Stroke - Stick Out Your Tongue. NOTE: Ask the person to ‘stick’ out his tongue. If the tongue is ‘crooked,’ if it goes to one side or the other, that is also an indication of a stroke. Securing Your Home for Your Pets Home security is not just for your family. Your pets are also in need of protection in the event of an emergency or break-in. Help make your home safer and more secure for your pets with these tips. Lock up - One of the simplest things you can do to secure your home for your pets is to lock your doors and windows. You should do this not only when you leave, but also when you are at home. This will help prevent break-ins and can prevent your pet from being accidentally let outside. Choose reliable deadbolt door locks and sturdy window locks. Watch your garage - Get in the habit of keeping your garage door closed at all times. This helps prevent unauthorized access to your garage and home. If your pet has access to your garage, this will also help keep him from being let out.
Tips for a Great Garage Sale Is your closet fuller than your wallet? Do you have bags of old clothes crammed under the beds? Are you tripping over the junk that’s been accumulating around your home? Summer is the perfect time to get rid of it all! A garage sale is a great way to clean up the clutter and make some extra cash at the same time. To help you prepare for a great garage sale, here are some ideas to make the day as easy (and profitable) as possible. Prepare ahead of time. Before the big day, designate a collection area in your home. It can be a large cardboard box or a whole spare bedroom. This will keep you from forgetting to put items out. Practical household goods such as appliances, dishes, furniture, tools, and the like are good sellers. Items of clothing, especially children’s clothing, sell well if they are clean and still in good condition. Organize as much as possible. The more you organize and sort your items for sale, the better. Have one box for books and perhaps a small table for kitchen items. Clothing can be displayed hanging on a rack or spread out on a blanket on the ground. Make sure everything is clean and include original packaging if you still have it. Labeling your displays will make for better sales as well. Price your items fairly. Keep in mind, however, that some people will want to bargain, so don’t make your prices too low to begin with. To save time, only individually price large items. Price groups of items all the same price. For example, price all books 50 cents and all toys $1.00. Lower your prices toward the end of the day. Some people will return to see if items they were interested in earlier have been discounted. If you don’t lower your prices at the end of the day, you may not sell them at all. Have all the basics handy. Keep plenty of change available. Most everyone will come with $5.00, $10.00, and $20.00 bills. You should have a calculator, a measuring tape, and an extension cord if possible to try out electrical appliances. Have grocery store sacks and newspaper for wrapping fragile items. Consider wearing a hip pack to hold your money, rather than leaving it in an unattended box on a table. Get some help. It’s a good idea to have a friend, neighbor, or relative help. You do need the occasional bathroom break. If you have kids, they can join in on the fun. Setting up a lemonade and cookie stand or selling hot coffee and doughnuts can be a great way for them to make a little extra money as well.

FAMILY BFEATURESack-to-school season can be cluttered between after-school activities, weekend sports and evening homework – as well as making dinner each night. Creating a master meal plan with quick, simple and nutritious meals is an easy way to take control of your family’s hectic schedule. Start by stocking the pantry with staple ingredients that amp up the nutrition and flavor of your family favorites. For example, American Pecans are a nutritious ingredient to have on-hand – among the highest in “good” monounsaturated fats and packed with plant protein, fiber and essential minerals – and “The Original Supernut” is versatile enough for breakfast, lunchboxes, dinners and on-the-go snacking. Adding one bag to your weekly grocery list provides a canvas for exploring new dishes that are both nutritious and delicious. In fact, according to the Food and Drug Administration, scientific evidence suggests but does not prove that eating 1 1/2 ounces per day of most nuts, such as pecans, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease. One serving (28 grams) of pecans contains 18 grams of unsaturated fat and only 2 grams of saturated fat. Updating your dinner repertoire doesn’t have to be complicated. Fuss-free recipes such as Pizza with Pecan-Herb Topping, Baked Pecan-Crusted Chicken Tenders and Pecan-Crusted Air Fryer Pork Chops can be ready in less than an hour and put a fresh twist on classic favorites to please parents and kids alike. Discover more back-to-school meal-planning recipe inspiration and cooking tips at AmericanPecan.com.
Pizza with Pecan-Herb Topping Cook time: 40 minutes 1 store-bought pizza dough 1 cup raw pecan halves or pieces 1/2 cup fresh parsley 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional) 1 pinch salt 1 pinch pepper 1/2 cup jarred pizza sauce 2 cupsmozzarellashreddedcheese 1/2 cup thinly sliced red pepper 1/2 cup thinly sliced Vidalia onion Heat oven to 400 F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly flour clean surface. Using rolling pin, roll out pizza dough to 1/8-inch thick and transfer to prepared baking sheet. Gently pierce dough with fork to prevent air pockets. Bake crust 10-15 orminutes,untillightly golden in color. In food processor, pulse pecans, parsley and garlic powder until mixture becomes coarse crumbs. Transfer to bowl and stir in Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes (if desired), salt and pepper. Set aside. Using spoon, evenly spread pizza sauce over crust. Top with mozzarella cheese, red pepper slices and onion slices. Sprinkle 1/3 cup pecan mixture evenly over pizza. Transfer pizza to oven and bake 10-15 minutes, or until crust is crispy and cheese is melted. Serve with remaining pecanherb mixture. Notes: If dough instructions differ from recipe, use package instructions. Additional topping options include: pepperoni, olives, ham, bacon and roasted veggies. Leftover pecan-herb topping can be used for pasta and salads.
Cook time: 35 minutes 2 cups raw pecan halves or pieces 1 cup panko or gluten-free bread crumbs 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 teaspoon salt, plus additional, to taste 1 1/2-2 pounds chicken breast tenders or chicken strips 3 large eggs 1 cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour blend pepper, to taste Buttermilk Ranch Dip: 1/4 cup buttermilk 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/2 cup sour cream 1 teaspoon parsley 1 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon dried dill 1/2 teaspoon salt Heat oven to 425 F. In food processor, pulse pecans until fine as breadcrumbs. In shallow bowl, mix pecans with panko, garlic powder, cayenne pepper and 1 teaspoon salt. In separate shallow bowl, whisk eggs until smooth. In third shallow bowl, add flour. Lightly season chicken tenders with salt and pepper, to taste. Working with one chicken tender at a time, dip in eggs, flour then pecan mixture. Be sure to press pecan mixture into chicken to be sure it is completely coated. Set chicken on baking sheet lined with cooling rack or parchment paper. Repeat with remaining chicken. Place chicken on center rack and bake 20 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. To make Buttermilk Ranch Dip: In small bowl, whisk buttermilk, mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, dried dill and salt until smooth.Serve pecan-crusted chicken tenders warm paired with Buttermilk Ranch Dip.
If you really like purebreds, you can find a mutt that’s pretty close. “One strategy to get the best of both worlds – choose a mutt that is primar ily of your chosen breed,” Katribe said. “You’ll get the hardiness of a mutt with the look and, potentially, behavioral tendencies of your chosen Whetherbreed.” you have a beloved mutt at home or are thinking of adding a dog to your family, Katribe suggests visiting your local shelter to see how you can help dogs awaiting adoption. “If you aren’t able to adopt right now, consider fostering or even taking a dog on a short outing to get them out of the stressful shelter environ ment for a night or a few hours,” she said. “If fostering is not an option, then volunteer or donate – shelters can’t save lives without the support of their community.” To find a shelter or rescue near you, visit www.bestfriends.org.
Best Friends Animal Society is a leading animal welfare organization working to end the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters by 2025. Founded in 1984, Best Friends is a pioneer in the no-kill movement and has helped reduce the number of animals killed in shelters from an estimated 17 million per year to about 347,000. Best Friends runs lifesaving programs all across the country, as well as the nation’s largest no-kill animal sanctuary. Working collaboratively with a network of more than 3,300 animal welfare and shelter partners, and community members nationwide, Best Friends is working to Save Them All®. For more information, visit bestfriends.org.
Those who have adopted pets all have stories like this. That’s why Best Friends Animal Society is sharing why mutts often make for the very best of friends: No two mutts are alike. That can make your dog the talk of your block, the latest social media star or simply a great companion. “Every time I walk through a shelter, large or small, I see a stunning array of dogs of all shapes and sizes,” Katribe said. “Each one is beautifully unique.”
Mixed breed dogs (aka mutts) tend to have a lower risk of hereditary diseases than purebred dogs. “Even when breeders make efforts to re move dogs with heritable medical problems from their breeding pools, some conditions will get by undetected in earlier generations,” Katribe said. “Hereditary problems are very common at puppy mills or with irresponsible breeders, as breeding stock is not selected for based on any health criteria.” The temperament of a mutt can be just as solid as a purebred. “While some breeds do have behavioral tendencies related to their breeding (for example, herding behavior in dogs bred for that purpose), there are no guarantees that a purebred dog will follow that tendency,” Katribe explained. “The reality is that every dog is an individual.”
Most mutts are not born in cruel puppy mills or other unfortunate circumstances, Katribe noted. “For dogs that are bred and born in puppy mill situations or by irresponsible breeders, both the parents and puppies are often kept in inhumane and unsanitary conditions. While the puppies get sold, the parents can live in these horrible conditions for many, many years.”

About Best Friends Animal Society
More recently, Franklin, a Hurricane Harvey and distemper survivor, who is an indiscernible combination of breeds continues to teach Ka tribe. “In the beginning, it was about canine distemper, and now it’s about love and life, as only a dog can teach us humans,” she added.
The Top 5 Reasons Why Mutts Rule!
Ask veterinarian Erin Katribe, Best Friends Animal Society’s medical director, and she’ll tell you about two very special mutts that hold a place in her heart.
America has a long history of affection for mutts. Two of cinema’s most famous dogs – Spike from “Old Yeller” and Higgins from “Benji”were mutts adopted from shelters. Heroic mutts such as Balto, the sled dog who brought lifesaving diphtheria medication to remote corners of Alaska, are immortalized in bronze statue form. Even the currently fashionable “doodles” selling for thousands of dollars are a mix of two dogs (which is really just a mutt).
“As an adult, the first dog I had was a rescue mutt that I encountered at the local non-profit clinic where I was volunteering before vet school. Akasha and I were immediately connected, and we spent the next 16 years together. She was my ‘heart’ dog,” Katribe said.
n Instruct children to walk on the sidewalk. If there is no sidewalk, advise them to stay out of the street, walk single-file, face traffic and stay as close to the edge of the road as possible. n Walk young children to the bus stop or encourage kids to walk in groups. There is safety in numbers; groups are easier for drivers to see. n If kids must cross a street, driveway or alley, remind them to stop and look both ways before crossing.
n Verify the bus stop location offers good visibility for the bus driver; if changes are needed, talk with nearby homeowners or school district officials to implement changes. Never let kids wait in a house or car, where the driver may miss seeing them approach the bus.
n Create a morning routine that puts kids at the bus stop five minutes before the scheduled pickup time. This helps avoid a last-minute rush, when safety lessons are easily forgotten, and ensures kids are safely in place for boarding. n Encourage children to wear bright, contrasting colors so they can be seen easier by drivers.
Rethink Your Child’s Ride
Cost Savings
Leaving the Bus
FAMILY AFEATURESnother school year means millions of children across the country are boarding buses at the beginning and end of each day, and it provides an appropriate opportunity for parents, teachers, school administrators and students themselves to practice and enforce safety guidelines in and around the school bus. Consider these tips from the experts at the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) to help keep children safe before bus rides, during travel and after exiting the vehicle. Before the Bus Arrives n Ensure backpacks are packed securely so papers and other items don’t scatter as the bus approaches.
n For parents who meet their kids at the bus, remember that excited kids may dart across the street. Eliminate the risk by waiting on the side of the street where kids exit the bus. n Make the bus ride part of your daily “how was school?” discussion. Encourage kids to talk about the things they see and hear on the bus so you can discuss appropriate behaviors and, if necessary, report any concerns to school administrators. n As bullying is prevalent and buses are no exception, ask children to tell you about any bullying they observe, whether against another child or themselves, and talk about how to shut down bully behaviors. Visit BetterOurBuses.com for more school bus safety tips and information.
n Teach safe riding habits: stay seated with head, hands and feet inside at all times; keep bags and books out of the aisle and remain seated until the bus stops moving. n Remind kids that just like when riding in cars, loud noises are off limits so they don’t distract the driver. That includes cellphones and other electronic devices; instruct children to put them on mute or use headphones.
While children and their parents can take many steps toward enhanced safety in and around buses, school districts also have unique opportunities to improve their transportation. More than 900 school districts in 48 states across the country are operating propane-powered school buses rather than other fuels like diesel and gasoline. Alternative fuels, such as propane, offer multiple benefits for school districts and students alike because propane buses reduce harmful emissions, save money and create a safer ride for students riding school buses. This school year, more than 1 million students will ride a propane school bus to school every day. Parents and community leaders can engage their local school districts about the benefits propane buses provide: Cleanliness
n Remind children that the bus stop is not a playground. Balls or other toys could roll into the street and horseplay can result in someone falling into the path of oncoming traffic. n Instruct children to stay at least three steps away from the road and allow the bus to come to a complete stop before approaching it. On the Bus Ride n When boarding the bus, items can get bumped and dropped. Caution children that before picking anything up, they should talk to the driver and follow instructions to safely retrieve their possessions.
While diesel exhaust is classified by the World Health Organization as a carcinogen, propane buses don’t expose students to the same harmful emissions. Propane school bus engines lower greenhouse gas emissions to near-zero levels, which improves air quality and eliminates concerns about breathing-related health issues.
n Remind children to look before stepping off the bus. If they must cross the street, teach them to do so in front of the bus by taking five big steps (approximately 10 feet) away from the front of the bus, looking up and waiting for the driver to signal that it is safe.

With school budgets continually at risk of losing funding, parents and schools can think outside the box to target extra savings. Over the life of the vehicle, propane school buses cost less compared to other fuels for a variety of reasons, including lower fuel costs and more manageable maintenance. Those lower costs on oftentimes large expenses can instead be used to fund student-based programs. Better for Students Propane buses are also noticeably quieter than alternatives. Noise level and safety go hand-in-hand when considering that a quieter ride allows drivers to focus more on the road as student conversations are less likely to reach higher levels in an effort to be heard over engine noise. With less noisy distractions, drivers are able to hear what’s happening outside the bus – from horns and sirens to train whistles and more – and keep their riders safe. Additionally, the less distracting engine noise may allow drivers to more easily notice and address bullying behavior on the bus. Explore the switch from diesel buses to cleaner alternatives by downloading resources available at BetterOurBuses.com, and consider starting a discussion with your children’s school district.
