Make this a safe fireworks season

Fireworks displays are a hallmark of summer, and a frequent component of Independence Day celebrations and commemorative events that require a touch of flair. Aweinspiring pyrotechnics shows lure millions of spectators around the world each and every year.

Many people experiment with fireworks on their own, but that can be dangerous. According to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission, thousands of people are injured by fireworks in the United States each year. Whether purchased legally or on the black market, fireworks pose a considerable threat. Fireworks purchased on the black market may be especially dangerous, as they likely were not subjected to government regulations and inspections.

While summer might be the seasonoffireworks,it’simportant that people who intend to incorporate fireworks into their summer festivities keep safety in mind at all times. The following are a handful of ways to ensure this summer is both fun and safe.

• Attend a municipal firework display rather than hosting your own. Professionals follow certain safety protocols that private citizens are unfamiliar with, and there is often a considerable distance between audiences and professional fireworks displays.

• Exercise caution if fireworks are legal where you live. Maintain a safe distance from fireworks at all times and never allow children to handle fireworks.

• Read and strictly adhere to manufacturer’s instructions.

• Light only one firework at a time, and never attempt to re-ignite a firework that doesn’t light the first time around.

• Do not carry fireworks in your pocket.

• Do not shoot fireworks out of metal or glass containers.

• Always wear safety glasses when lighting fireworks, and keep water or a fire extinguisher around for emergencies.

If not handled properly, fireworks can cause serious injuries to kids and adults. The safest way to enjoy fireworks is to leave it to the professionals.

Homeowners often choose to save money and learn valuable skills by doing their own home improvement projects. These minor or major renovations are made much more successful by having the right tools for the job. Investing in good tools can be smart, but those tools are only effective if they are accessible and in good repair. Homeowners who emphasize taking care of their tools can make DIY projects that much easier and more rewarding.

When tending to their lawns, homeowners are advised to pay attentiontoareasthatmayfeature standing water. According to the World Health Organization, standing water is a breeding ground for mosquitoes, which can breed in great numbers in pools of water. Mosquitoes are known to carry diseases like malaria, West Nile virus and Zika. Furthermore, mosquitoes that bite pets can transmit heartworms, a serious problem if gone it goes undiscovered.Standingwateralso can be a haven for bacteria, mold and parasites that are dangerous to human health. If standing, stagnantwaterisaprobleminyour yard, remediation is necessary. Directing downspouts away from the house can remediate standing water. Changing the grading of soil so that low spots are elevated is another way to reduce instances of standing water. This may be a project that requires the assistance of a drainage professional. In addition, homeowners can remove standing water from empty flower pots, pool covers, bird baths, and more to reduce the likelihood that mosquitoes will appear on their properties.

REDUCE RADON IN YOUR HOME

Testing can determine if radon is present in a home. Homeowners can rely on professional companies or purchase self-testing kits at home improvement retailers. If a test comes back positive for high levels, conduct a follow-up test before taking any measures to fix the problem. Unusual weather can increase radon levels. If repeat testing yields the same results, efforts to reduce radon levels are necessary.

Homeowners must keep in mind that no two situations are the same and various techniques may be necessary to reduce radon levels in a home. Simply opening the windows in a home may not be enough, and many radon remedies require the skilled services of professional contractors who are experienced in radon reduction procedures. Homes can be fixed, but some instances may be best left to the professionals.

HOW TO FIX THAT STICKING DOOR

Nearly everyone has experienced a sticking door that just will not close properly. This problem may become more noticeable when temperatures rise and humidity contributes to the swelling of wood doors and frames.

According to The Family Handyman, a home improvement resource, the standard remedy for alleviating a sticking door is to remove the door and pare down the edges that are rubbing so that the door will once again swing freely. While this can solve the problem, it can be a hassle, as it requires refinishing the pareddown edge and rehanging the door. Try these shortcuts first before creating more work than might be necessary.

• Identify the problem area and rub it with a dry bar of soap. This should reduce friction and allow the door to close more easily.

• Remove humidity with a dehumidifier or by running an air conditioning unit.

• Check for loose hinges or sagging around the hinge. Tighten the fasteners to sure up the door and create better alignment.

• Spray the hinges with lubricant if you suspect sticking is originating because of squeaky hinges.

• Look for obstructions at the bottom of the door. Is the door dragging on carpeting or being caught on something on the floor? It may be a matter of simply clearing away the obstruction.

Why are you supposed to take off the “suckers” on tomato plants if they still produce fruit?

You do not need to take the suckers off but if you do not, you will end up with a lot of branches and probably a lot of small tomatoes if you are lucky.. The added branches will shade other parts of the plant and encourage mold and bacteria to grow since rainwater would not evaporate off the leaves as quickly compared to one that you prune. The extra branches also take up energy that could be used in producing larger fruit. So, depending on what you want from

your tomatoes, pruning off branches might be something you will want to do.

You could try an experiment in your garden to see for yourself what happens with and without pruning. Just a side, at the beginning, if you root some of the suckers, you could get a few more plants that will produce tomatoes for you before frost kills them.

Do what we can, summer will have its flies. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

GO GREEN WHEN SPENDING TIME OUTDOORS THIS SUMMER

Embrace eco-friendly activities. Various activities, from organic gardening to planting trees to beach cleanups, provide a great way to get outdoors and help the planet at the same time. Men and women who grow their own vegetables can take solace knowing that the vegetables they’re eating each night did not require the depletion of any natural resources to go from garden to table. Signing up for beach cleanups can prevent trash, including harmful plastics, from making its way into the world’s oceans, and such cleanups provide a great excuse to go to the beach.

STRANGE BUT TRUE By

EXPLORING THE ORIGINS OF LABOR DAY

Labor Day marks the unofficial end of summertime fun and a day when thousands of people gather across the country for their final big barbecue blowouts. Labor Day has evolved into a holiday about relaxing with friends and family, and that has led to its origins getting somewhat lost in the celebratory shuffle.

Created by the labor movement in the late 19th century, Labor Day was established to highlight the achievements of American workers, both from a social and an economic perspective. Labor Day highlights one of the main benefitsofbeingacitizenoftheUnitedStates,theabilitytohaveprofessional freedomandcontributetotheprosperityandstrengthofthecountrythrough gainful employment. Labor Day became a federal holiday in 1894.

Celebrated annually on the first Monday of September, it is believed that Labor Day was first promoted by the Central Labor Union and the Knights of Labor, which also organized the first labor-related parade in New York City. Although the true fathers of Labor Day remain a topic of debate, some historians maintain that Peter J. McGuire of the American Federation of Labor put forward the first Labor Day proposal in May 1882 after witnessing a labor festival in Toronto, Canada.

Labor Day was largely celebrated in the past with parades, speeches and a day off of work for the country’s workers. Similar festivities occur to this day, with the gradual introduction of other events that mark the unofficial end of summer.

Great Job!

A big thanks to our the Village of Geneseo workers who pick up our lawn bags and tree branches so regularly. They are always neat and careful to get all of the trimmings that we leave by the curb. We appreciate your service.

Best Win Ever!

This past weekend I was at Batavia Downs Gaming, hoping to win some money, yet gained much more in the end! I absent mindedly set my wallet on the stool next to me and eventually Ieft the casino, only to realize I did not have my wallet. A HUGE SHOUT OUT to the great samaritan that turned my wallet in to lost and found, and to Batavia Downs staff, Mary, Maya, and Maggie! When I realized I left it, I called and left a message, Mary tried to call me back three times. When we finally connected, Mary and Maya kindly told me it was locked in the safe. The next morning I went to pick it up, and Mary directed me to Lost & Found where I met Maggie, who pleasantly helped me retrieve my wallet, with some great conversation too! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH, my mishap truly turned out to be a blessing in disguise & the best win everTO ENCOUNTER GENUINE KINDNESS & MORALITY!

Strolling Downtown

Due to COVID, restaurants understandably added outside sidewalk seating. Our village downtown restaurants have done so, and we have enjoyed their service. Unfortunately, some of the tables are too large and have seating that spills out almost to the curb. Pedestrians should not be forced to step down into the street and around parked cars to get past those seated at tables. This is especially difficult for parents pushing strollers, wheelchair users and senior citizens. Restaurant managers, please use smaller tables or push them up against the building, limiting the number of chairs at the tables. This would provide a wider path for pedestrian use.

Keep it in your car

People! Stop throwing trash out of your car! The amount of garbage in the roads, on the side of highways, and in the grass is pure disrespect and laziness. If you’re picking up fast food, the paper bag and your wrappers do not belong in the road. Your plastic cup that had your soda in it from the convenient store does not belong in the road. Have some respect for the environment. The animals do not deserve to have their habitats polluted because you don’t want the trash in your car. YOUR GARBAGE=YOUR PROBLEM. We should be able to drive around and see the beauty in Rochester, not all the garbage that needs to get picked up. Show some respect. It’s not other people’s job to clean up after your mess. Wait until you get home to throw it out properly. In YOUR own trash can.

DID YOU KNOW?

Prospective real estate investors who hope to buy, hold and rent out their investment properties should first interview potential property managers before buying homes. While it’s possible to find property managers willing to manage single-family homes or duplexes, the financial resource Bankrate.com notes that many property managers prefer to manage large apartment complexes instead. Managing properties is hard work, and without skilled property managers on their side, real estate investors may become overwhelmed by the responsibilities of taking care of their real estate investments while simultaneously trying to maintain their own residences. Before buying investment properties, prospective real estate investors should interview various local property managers or property management firms, inquiring about their fees and what is included in those fees. If the cost of hiring property managers drastically cuts into the profits investors hoped to make off their investment properties, they might be better off looking to invest their money in areas other than real estate. Prospective investors can compare the potential return on investment after the cost of property managers has been factored in to the return they might get from more traditional investments to determine if investing in real estate is a sound financial decision.

ENJOYING THRILLS AT AMUSEMENT PARKS

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

RELIEVE

Walk away. The APA notes that taking a break from a stressor is one of a handful of healthy techniques that research has indicated is a successful way to reduce stress, both in the short- and long-term. If a project at work is proving especially stressful, step away for a short period of time to do something else, whether it’s to go for a brief walk or converse with a coworker about something unrelated to the project. Avoiding the stress entirely, especially if it’s a work project or a bill that must be paid, is not the answer. But a short break from the stressor and thinking about it can provide a new perspective and time to calm down.

BOOST ENERGY AT THE OFFICE

Maintaining energy throughout the workday can sometimes be difficult. For busy professionals, compromised energy levels can be especially problematic, causing workers to fall behind and maybe even forcing them to work extra hours just to catch up.

While infrequent days of low energy should not pose too great a threat, working professionals who routinely find their energy levels sagging by the end of the workday might want to take certain steps to boost their energy and ensure their productivity doesn’t wane.

HOW PARENTS CAN SIMPLIFY STUDENTS’ TRANSITION TO COLLEGE LIFE

Teach kids how to develop budgets. Another problem many first-year collegestudentsencounterisaninabilitytoeffectivelymanagetheirmoney. Whether you plan to give kids an allowance while they are in school or intend for them to work part-time for their spending money, use senior year of high school as an opportunity to show kids how to budget their money. If they don’t have accounts already, open bank accounts in your youngster’s name, and insist that he or she start paying for his or her expenses via these accounts. Resist the urge to give high school kids gas money or money for shopping trips if they have already spent their allowances so they can learn how to effectively manage money between paydays. In addition, teach kids abouttherightandwrongwaystousecreditcards,includingtheimportance of paying balances in full and on time.

PAW’S CORNER

Dog’s Food Guarding Aggression Is Getting Worse

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I adopted an energetic, bouncy little Terrier mix a few months ago from a friend who had found him abandoned and wandering near his farm. Eddie is around 1 year old, and according to the vet he was likely abused or in a puppy mill situation. He’s now caught up on his shots, neutered, has put on weight and is pretty happy. However, he is an absolute terror if anyone, including me, approaches him while he’s eating. He snarls and snaps. And he’s gotten worse. He even nipped my hand once, and ran o in fear when I yelled. How can I stop this behavior? -- Jack H. in Newton, Massachusetts

DEAR JACK: Resource guarding is certainly an undesirable behavior, and it is sadly a common one in dogs coming from stressful, overpopulated or abusive situations. Because Eddie is really aggressive, even toward you, consider contacting a professional trainer and working with the vet to develop a long-term solution. Training along with a prescribed anti-anxiety medicine can work wonders, but it will take time.

In the short term, you’ll need to make sure Eddie won’t bite you or anyone else. Feed him in a location away from foot tra c and other pets. If you use a kennel cage, you can feed him in the cage. Feed him at consistent times each day. Don’t let anyone else attempt to feed him, even with treats.

e ASPCA has a helpful article with training exercises to start helping Eddie relax when you’re near him during feeding time. Find it here: www.aspca.org/ pet-care/dog-care/common-dog-behavior-issues/food-guarding

However, they also recommend working with a trainer. Resolving a resource guarding behavior can be tricky, but the long-term bene t is a happy, healthy companion.

frequently host open houses for elementary school students, who can take tours of the campus. Parents can take part in these events with their children. If your schedule does not allow you to attend, then schedule a private tour with the middle school principal or a faculty member. Middle school guidance counselors or guest speakers also may make the rounds, visiting elementary schools directly. Be sure your student attends such information sessions so he or she can get an idea of what to expect during middle school.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Most Common Cause Behind Teary Eyes Are Dry Eyes

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 74-year-old woman who loves to read the newspaper every morning. I have a problem that’s not serious, just annoying. My eyes tear up frequently while I read, causing me to wipe them. After I’m done reading, the problem stops. I see my ophthalmologist every year and have my vision glasses updated as needed. I am not yet a candidate for cataract surgery. Could you enlighten me about a probable cause for this irritating problem? -- A.H.G.

ANSWER: By all means, ask your ophthalmologist at your next visit, but the most common cause I see for watery, tearing eyes are ... dry eyes! This apparent paradox is caused by the fact that your eyes have three different fluids.

One of them, called meibum, is a long-lasting, oily material secreted by the meibomian glands, found around the edges of the eyelids near the eyelashes. This covers the eye and prevents fluid from evaporating quickly. Without this fluid, the lacrimal gland (near the temple above each eye) then has to make a lot of its watery secretions, which cause symptoms of tearing. Most commonly, the meibomian glands get clogged up by secretions becoming dry. Gently cleansing the eyelash area with warm water and baby shampoo helps many people unclog these glands. Artificial tears lubricate the eye and will reduce the symptoms of watery eyes (and maybe some eye irritation, too, which you might not have mentioned). ***

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu.

WHAT THE NUTRIENTS FOUND IN MANY FRUITS AND VEGETABLES DO FOR YOUR BODY

Magnesium: The Mayo Clinic reports that magnesium supports muscle and nerve function and energy production. Individuals with chronically low levels of magnesium could be at increased risk for high blood pressure, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and osteoporosis. The NIH notes that magnesium is widely distributed in plants. That means it can be found in a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, including spinach, edamame, black beans, bananas, and broccoli. Magnesium levels vary significantly in these foods, so anyone concerned about magnesium deficiency can speak with their physicians about the best and healthiest ways to include more in their diets.

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 rst few steps, after sitting, after standing or after walking.

• Plantar fasciitis often begins with irritation and tearing of the brous 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 o er 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).

BROKEN DENTAL CROWNS

Acrownisusedtocoverandsurround a tooth when damage or decay are too advanced for a simple filling. Crowns restore a tooth’s natural appearance and function. They can hold a cracked tooth together, attach a bridge, or prevent a weak tooth from fracturing. While a crown may last a lifetime, a majority last five to fifteen years. Crowns can become chipped or broken. Accidents such as falls, facial trauma, or biting down on something hard can all damage a crown, as can grinding or clenching teeth. Sometimes broken crowns require emergency repair, while others can wait a few days. A broken crown may need to be reshaped and smoothed, but sometimes a new crown is necessary.

Maintaining a consistent schedule of regular dental checkups will give your dentist the opportunity of keeping an eye on the state of your teeth and any possible areas of developing dental problems such as a damaged crown. When was your last dental visit? Now would be a good time to schedule your next exam. If you don’t have a familydentist,weareacceptingnew patients at BATAVIA FAMILY DENTAL. Located at 6 Batavia City Centre, we welcome your call at 585.343.4246. We accept most insurances.

P.S. When a dental crown breaks, you may feel pain or sensitivity to hot or cold foods and beverages if the tooth’s pulp is exposed.

Discovering Your Local Library: A Community Oasis of Learning and Connection

As summer winds down (unfortunately quickly and school bells loom), I wanted to explore some of the local treasures we may overlook. Just because the school year approaches and children return to the classrooms and routines, fun and learning do not need to end. I may be rather partial (I grew up volunteering at Canandaigua’s Wood Library, frequented college and community libraries through my college and adult life, and made library visits a priority with my own kiddos), but libraries are an essential part of the community, so I inquired with a few local librarians for insights.

Cathy Henderson, Director of Greece Public Library, and Valerie Watson, Head of Programming and Youth Services at Chili Public Library, shared some insights with me. ey rave that the library has become a space where families, kids, teens, and adults come together to explore the world of books, partake in exciting events, and enrich their lives.

Watson says her favorite part of the library is “how multi-faceted it is – there really is something for everyone here … e library has grown and expanded from the old hushed, somber aisles of books and has become a place for the community to gather for a variety of purposes.”

O ering a wide array of materials for patrons to borrow, including books, movies, CDs, magazines, newspapers, audiobooks, video games, even electronic devices, STEAM to go kits, even shing poles, libraries o er communities a wealth of materials and opportunities that sometimes go underutilized.

Henderson said their variety of yoga programs are popular year-round. Dinosaur Train was another favorite this past summer, in which kids cra ed train cars, explored a dinosaur safari, and befriended the ancient creatures. Paws to Read continues to be a hot initiative, bringing therapy dogs into the library, allowing struggling (and all) readers to read to attentive, non-judgmental canine companions.

Watson raves about their popular Truck Show and Tie Dye events this summer, and excitedly shares that they’ve added a few new youth programs this fall: Pokémon Club for children, Graphic Novel Book Club for tweens, and a Special Interest Social Club for teens, As seasons shi , the library remains a vibrant hub of learning and connection. Its appeal goes beyond books, with diverse programs for all ages. Early literacy e orts provide a strong foundation for young minds. Families bond at story times and imaginative play in the Story Garden.

Even in this largely digital age, the public libraries stand as sanctuaries for meaningful connections, growth, and shared experiences. It’s where stories come alive, friendships form, and exploration thrives. Whether a library enthusiast or newcomer, step into your local library for a journey that transcends generations, o ering discovery, growth, and endless possibilities.

Watson says, “ e best thing about the library is how free it is! ere’s no cost for our programs; it’s free to get a library card; we’ve even removed nes for child and teen items! Come visit us, we would be happy to show you around!”

HOW AGING ADULTS CAN MAINTAIN THEIR MENTAL ACUITY

Aging is associated with or linked to a host of mental and physical side effects. For example, many adults expect their vision to deteriorate as they grow older. Such a side effect can be combatted with routine eye examinations that may indicate a need for a stronger eyeglass prescription, a relatively simple solution that won’t impact adults’ daily lives much at all.

While physical side effects like diminished vision might not strike much fear in the hearts of aging men and women, those same people may be concerned and/or frightened by the notion of age-related cognitive decline. Some immediately associate such decline with Alzheimer’s disease, an irreversible, progressive brain disorder that gradually destroys memory and cognitive skills, ultimately compromising a person’s ability to perform even the simplest of tasks. But age-related cognitive decline is not always symptomatic of Alzheimer’s disease. Learning about Alzheimer’s and how to maintain mental acuity can help aging men and women better understand the changes their brains might be undergoing as they near or pass retirement age.

Aging Well With Exercise

You can get better and stronger at any age. Research shows that an appropriate exercise program can improve your muscle strength and flexibility as you age. Progressive resistance training, where muscles are exercised against resistance that gets more difficult as strength improves, has been shown to help prevent frailty.

Your bones want you to exercise. Osteoporosis, or weak bones, affects more than half of Americans over the age of 54. Exercises that keep you on your feet, like walking, jogging or dancing, and exercises using resistance such as weight lifting, can improve bone strength or reduce bone loss.

INFLUENTIAL JAZZ MUSICIANS

Scott Joplin (c. 1868-1917):

Born into a musical family that included his mother, a singer and banjo player, and his father, a violist, Scott Joplin grew up in Texarkana, learning to play the guitar and later the piano at a very young age. By the time Joplin was a teenager, he was working as a traveling musician and eventually became the foremost composer of ragtime jazz. Biography.com notes that Joplin was a true student of music, studying at the George R. Smith College for Negroes in Missouri during the 1890s. Though one of history’s most celebrated jazz musicians, Joplin also composed ballets and operas.

SUMMER FUN FOR ACTIVE SENIORS

Spend time swimming. Swimming is a low-impact activity that can work the body in many different ways. Devote time to doing a few laps in the pool. Or make a day of going to a lake or another body of water to wade out and enjoy some strokes in nature. Stick to swimming areas that are monitored by lifeguards for optimal safety.
