“When the squirrels hide their acorns,
And the woodchucks disappear;
Then we know that it is autumn,
Loveliest season of the year.”
- Carol L. Riser
ALL ABOUT NOVEMBERNovember is derived from the Latin word novem, which means nine, because it was
originally the ninth month in the Roman calendar. The earliest Roman calendar consisted
of 10 months and 304 days. It was the Roman ruler Numa Pompilius who added January
and February. Though the Roman senate attempted to rename the month on several
occasions, no new name could be decided upon. Hence, the name November stuck.
BIRTHSTONE – YELLOW TOPAZThe symbol of friendship as well as November’s birthstone, the yellow topaz is said to
strengthen one’s capacity to give and receive love. It is also believed to make one more
aware of their actions and how those actions affect others. Topaz is found in a variety of
shades, from the traditional golden hue to reds, oranges and pinks. It is found in many
parts of the world, including the U.S., Brazil, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Russia.
FLOWER – CHRYSANTHEMUMNovember’s flower is the chrysanthemum, translated from Greek to mean “gold flower”.
For centuries, the flower was the official badge of the Old Chinese Army. In Japan, it was
featured on the Imperial Crest of Japan, and Japanese emperors sat upon
chrysanthemum thrones. Though the flower represents cheerfulness and rest, individual
colors have specific meanings. Red, stands for love good luck and best wishes. White
stands for truth and Violet is used to send get-well-wishes. CONTINUED ON PAGE 2

American Kestrels are small but mighty
raptors, the smallest of the falcon family.
Along with their dainty size comes
incredible speed and agility. They can fly up
to 39 mph!
Male kestrels are striking in appearance,
with white bellies, orange backs striped
with black and slate-blue wings. The
female’s plumage is reddish-brown, and
they are larger and more muscular than
males.
American kestrels migrate from Argentina
to as far north as Alaska. Instead of
constructing nests, they occupy old
woodpecker holes, crevices in barns, or
other human made structures. Scientists
aren’t sure why kestrel numbers are
steadily declining. Some suggest the
destruction of grasslands is the cause.
One way to help preserve this bird of prey
is to build a kestrel box for a pair to nest in.
Kestrels perch in open spaces to hunt, and
their fancy flying patterns are endearing
and entertaining.
BEAVER MOONColonial Americans and the Algonquin
Native American tribe referred to
November’s full moon as the Beaver Moon.
This full moon marked the time of year
that beaver traps needed to be set before
the swamps froze, ensuring a supply of
warm furs for the coming winter. Another
name for the November moon is the frost
moon.

This month I would like to highlight an article written
by Paul’s Run Dietician Stephanie Kowalski.
FIBER FUNDAMENTALS
Dietary Fiber is defined as, intact plant components
that are not broken down by digestive enzymes in the
body. It can be found in fruits, vegetables, legumes
and whole grains. There are 2 type of dietary fiber:
soluble and insoluble, both of which have many
benefits and should be included in a healthy diet.
Most fruits and vegetables are sources of both types
of fiber. For example, the skin of most fruits consists
of insoluble fiber, while the flesh contains soluble
fiber. It has been shown that populations with higher
fiber intake have lower rates of chronic diseases,
such as, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes,
certain cancers (such a colon and gastric) and
digestive disorders.
There are many benefits to having a diet high in
fiber. The most well-known benefit is that it promotes
There are many benefits to having a diet high in fiber. The most well-known benefit is that it
promotes regular bowel movements, which prevents constipation, hemorrhoids, flares ups of
diverticulitis and even colon cancer. Some less known benefits of a diet high in fiber are:
better regulation of blood sugar, help lowering LDL or “bad cholesterol” levels and promotion
of satiety or feeling full, which can lead to healthy weight loss. The National Dietary
Guidelines for Americans recommends that the average adult woman get 22-28 g of dietary
fiber per day and the average adult man get 28-34 g of dietary fiber per day. Talk to your
physician or registered dietitian about your specific needs, as these recommendations can
vary by age and can be impacted by medical history.
The best dietary fiber sources include: fruits (especially fresh fruit with skin), vegetables,
whole grain products (such as bread, cereal and pasta), beans and lentils, oatmeal, nuts,
seeds, bran products, brown rice and quinoa. When increasing your
fiber intake, be sure to do it slowly to prevent gas, bloating and
diarrhea. Also, be sure to drink adequate amounts of fluids while
increasing your fiber intake to prevent constipation.

LIBERTY NEWS—HYPOTHERMIA
WELL, IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR,
AGAIN!As you know, it's no secret that older adultscan lose body heat faster than when they wereyoung. According to the National Institute onAging, changes in our bodies that come withaging makes it harder for our bodies toregulate temperature and even the ability tosense cold lessens with age. This chill canresult in a serious problem called hypothermia.Hypothermia occurs when your bodytemperature gets very low and for an olderadult, that's 95*F or lower. The diminishedsensation in older adults may be a result ofunderlying medical conditions like diabetes, oreven some medicines may be the cause.Hypothermia may lead to serious healthproblems including heart attack, kidneyproblems, and liver damage. It can occur fromnot only being outside in the cold, but can alsocome from a cold house. With just taking a fewextra steps, you can lower your chances ofgetting hypothermia.
Tips to keep warm inside:
• Keep your heat at least 68-72*, you canclose off rooms you are not using.
• Dress warmly on cold days even if stayinginside, throw a blanket over your legs, andwear socks and slippers.
• Wear pajamas and use extra covers for bed(you can wear a cap if you get too cold).
• Make sure you eat well to keep up yourweight. If you don't eat, you may have lessbody fat under your skin which helps you tostay warm.
• Ask family members or friends to check onyou during the cold season.
When going out:
• If going out, let someone know.
• Make sure steps and walkways are clear.Using a mixture of cat litter and salt for icysteps and walkways can help prevent falls.
• Be sure to dress for the weather. Dressingin layered loose clothing allows the airbetween layers to help keep you warm.
• We lose a lot of body heat at our head andneck, be sure to wear hats and scarves.
• Wear a waterproof jacket or coat ifsnowing.
• Use hand warmers that fit into pockets orgloves to keep your hands toasty.Walgreen's carries reusable foot warmers,as well, for those chilly nights.
• Avoid Slipping on ice by wearing shoes withnon-skid soles and good traction.Remember to take then off as soon as youcome inside. This will help to avoid themelted ice on the bottom from leading toslippery floors.
• Change clothing right away when damp.
Warning signs of hypothermia:
• Cold hands and feet
• Puffy/swollen face
• Pale skin
• Slurred speech
• Feeling sleepy, drowsy
• Being confused or angry
If you suspect you or someone else haswarning signs of hypothermia, call 9-1-1.

Music Therapy NotesWe begin each week in Music &
Memories by singing and sharing a
pleasant experience from the previous
week. In October, group members
rewrote the lyrics to our opening song, to
the tune, Oh What a Beautiful Morning. I
strongly believe the lyrics are reflective of
what occurs in our group and I’d like to
share them with you:
Oh the sun is shining so brightly,
And the bird are chirping so nicely.
The children are laughing and having
such fun,
It’s a wonderful day here at Paul’s Run.
Oh what a beautiful morning.
Oh what a beautiful day.
I’ve got a beautiful feeling,
Everything’s going my way.
Today we all sing together.
We share our hopes and our memories.
We spend time as friends, don’t want it
to end.
We can’t wait ‘til next week, we’ll do it
again.
Oh what a beautiful day!
Musically,
Molly

A HERO
BY: ARNOLD ESCOURT
Some think you have to be big and strong
That you have to be a star or sportsman.
To think a hero is a super, special someone is
wrong
They don’t need to climb a high mountain or fire
a gun
My younger cousin was a real hero to me
Suffering from bone cancer in his hospital bed he
had to lay
Sweetness and kindness in his face were clear to
see,
But also, in terrible agony and pain every hour,
every day.
He truly had real faith in God above
And for months he bore the awful pain.
He had a wife and young son and gave his share
of love
And stoically bore his fate and all the strain.
He quietly told me from his bed,
“I’m not afraid if I have to soon die!”
I listened while through the intravenous he was
being fed.
“I have a question between just you and I!”
“I’m not afraid to die,” he quietly and sincerely
said
“But why must I continue to suffer with all this
pain?”
A tear rolled down his cheek as he lay
uncomfortable in his hospital bed
While the streets outside were soaked with rain.
It took a long time and the bone cancer caused
him to die
I didn’t know the answer to his needs and quest.
Without a doubt here was a true hero and I had
to sigh!
As a hero he indeed stood a lot taller than the
rest!
SO FULL AWARE
BY: ARNOLD ESCOURT
To me, you are so beautiful, so very much aware
With shinning locks of reddish, lustrous hair.
You are lovely, charming with those warm, red lips
Your unmentioned promises so close to my fingertips.
Your captivating voice, mellifluous and urging me to stay.
What you whisper is enchanting in a charming, enticing way.
Your eyes sparkle like the dew of early spring,
Skin delicate as a humming bird’s wing.
So often the enticing moon lingered high overhead
Demanded that “good nights” be said.
Recklessly, I needed to remain as long as dawn
To freeze your spell before it could be gone.
I lost my head, I lost my heart,
For a while you and I had to part.
But I returned and lingered year after year
Happily, because of you, my darling dear.
ON BEING OLDER BY JACK BIRNBAUM
Getting older one thinks with less time,
things I should have done, now it’s too late
As I am known as rebellious, I compiled a
list of contrary thoughts it, to abdicate
It’s not too late to apologize if any of my
remarks were insulting, have given pain
It’s not too late to tell my children and
grandchildren I love you, again and again
It’s not too late to tell my son and daughters
in-law of loving thoughts, I do retain
It’s not too late to regret my faults and
pledge to rectify it, and them, to now revise
It’s not too late to regret exaggerations to
make myself larger, I am the same size
It’s not too late to regret having spoken in
anger, a fault that calls for my being fair
It’s not to late to regret if one was reaching
for a friend, somehow, I wasn’t there
It’s not too late to recognize the sacrifices
made by both my parents to get me here
Installing honesty, love of country and love
for learning, built a construct. of tiers
It’s not too late for me to learn I relish
learning from this community, it’s a blast
It’s not late to thank Paul’s Run letting me
share my future, my present, my past
Some things I said, or even things that were
left unsaid, give me pause to meditate
I wish I had told my first wife Claire the
good of being as one, the bad was of fate
I did at her request often sing to Rhoda and
she loved it, seemed to be entranced
I wish I told her how I felt more often, ruing
times missed for us to have danced
I wish I had stayed in touch with boyhood
friends so much a part of who I became
And co-workers, clients I lived and learned
with 40-years of a social works game
And lastly in the last eight years at Paul’s
Run The apex of learning and experience
I worried of losing touch after Rhoda died,
but friends, Charlie made for relevance
We, six other residents, sat together for
three years, a festival of being always glad
Our meals were filled with conversation,
jokes, wisdom and song, never being sad
And so, without realizing it I have
constructed a rhapsody on becoming one of
age
With use of poetry as my voice, I have
registered my views of time and being sage
I am privileged to continue it for however
long, in company of, sisters and brothers
There is no reason not to buy green
bananas when ripe to be used, eaten by
others
A school house is made up of rooms
With our todays and tomorrows inside.
Our schools are like a lush garden
Where only natural beauty can reside.
A school has pencils and books
And great teachers to stir a fertile mind.
Our classrooms are a critical link to history
Connecting our past to a future find.
Our schools are a caring parent’s vision
Of high hopes and tenderness.
A lesson plan is a teacher’s scheme
Of providing insight and learning synthesis.
Each school is the child’s place
To be cared for and to be inspired.
Our schools are our perpetual platform
Upon which our flag in freedom can be raised.
Our children are our active, living tomorrows
Running, jumping and learning at a proper pace.
Quality learning is our only hope
Toward really improving the human race!
A SCHOOL HOUSE
BY: ARNOLD ESCOURT
IT’S ABOUT ME
BY JACK BIRNBAUM
It occurs to me that I never wrote a poem of a
life’s joys as part of our long journey
That is an oversight I intend to rectify here and
now and aboard this, poetic gurney
That is not to say life has no grief, but rather to
tout the splendor of the longish trip
For those of us in Paul’s Run, pleasure starts in
fellowship holding fast to lifes grip
It began in good fashion born in or reaching this
shore, not perfect, but of the best
Our lives in America, no matter how grim,
compared to the world other, no contest
The future ours and our progeny, and its
promise, more in our control in such a test
As government in control is responsible for
gaining approval in the ruling of a nest
Americans use opportunity, not all, as
commitment to equality is yet a work in play
Not perfect, but no other world society has
advanced any closer to reach such a day
Even so I rejoice that I have life that’s bathed in
song and melodies of many a kind
Songs of Sinatra, Streisand, Gilbert and
Sullivan, George Gershwin come to mind
Ensembles as string quartets, orchestras, Dixie
land bands, all of musical rhapsody
Their presence cast a spell, enriched my mind
and soul into a veritable symphony
I have lived with love initially bequeathed by
parents and in the embrace of family
Then the love of comradery of learning.
experiences of teamwork in life and play
Into this era love of learning entered my orbit
and it became a life-long obsession
All of one’s life became part of a curriculum, or
as a part of a never-ending lesson
Romantic love and passion result in mating
with children in a family’s procession
Then prescribing the recycling of parental love
with the social mentoring sessions
During this trip I loved many things, it begins
with an eternal learning, my first love
My musical love is consuming from Mozart to
the somewhere a rainbow and above
I stand in awe of Van Gogh, Monet, Botticelli
and Picasso, their paintings are divine
Sculptures of Donatello Michelangelo and
Rodin go far beyond just being very fine
And history, particularly Americas founding
fathers, always do capture my attention
The word masters from Shakespeare, Lincoln,
M.L. King, others too many to mention
And then baseball, with my beloved N.Y.
Yankees, seem always to being in contention
This then being a summery or an itinerary of my
life journey in time, up to the present
I hope you found it of interest and I can assure
you of being welcome into this, my tent
I hope that I will be able through our contacts to
share with you my accumulated content
WORDS, MEANINGS AND MAKING A CHOICE
BY JACK BIRNBAUM
Language is the tool allowing man and beast to
reside and coexist in group and survive
cohabitation
The animal languages, primitive, in use for
survival in choosing a mate and leader in a
danger situation
Predator groups, more extensive language
defining hunting role, carrion hierarchy in
devouring meat
Most animal language non-verbal, acting out with
sound, as advanced groups used clubs to
compete
Primitive man, less mobile made pictures in
caves of tools a history for others to use and
emulate
Man evolved in use of tools, verbal identification,
words and language were a part of mans pate
History our heritage, words and language
conveyors of art, keepers of faith, vaults of
philosophy
Their job of keeping history is important but even
more so there is their task to value life’s tree
Words in themselves embody thoughts, in
combination, they convey beauty, they are our
estate
They allow us to communicate with many a tool,
promote us to we, open the vistas to life’s gate
They keep secrets, make pronouncements,
educate and influence, carry ideas and ideals, to
creation
Their grouping into languages serves as group
identification, promotes culture, breeds a nation
Their importance demands careful use in
carrying forth valued usage designating
their intent
We must guard against their misuse, inadvertent
or other, that seek to use them in malevolence
Of the many words precious words in our
democracy I can think of three, worthy of such
protection
Of many, these words to me to reflect our core
concepts, which I hope will explain their selection
The first word I feel must be a guide in our
democracy is a word a quality to honor, is
integrity
An uncommon adherence to ethical principles
and morality, honest of character must we be
Our leadership is to rule by law reflecting the will
of the nation and, these like the wind, sail a ship
Bring energy to the sails, meaning to our helm,
and power to our prow, in such a wonderful trip
Our first captains, the founding fathers grasped
such virtue, committed to unity with this tool
Their successors have in general made use
integrity, in varying degree, being from this
school
The second word I feel with energy, is a character
designation of loyalty, a path to use in our task
It should be applied not as in royalty, not to a
person but, as companion to integrity it, should
bask
It is sometimes viewed as patriotism, it is
voluntary by definition, it is also used to express
unity
It does however, not clash with dissent an action
to disagree, used in democracy as part of a duty
The third member word in trio is clemency, also
empathy, but in law, clemency is in play
As man is not perfect, criminal sanctions are
used for those violators held in prison to stay
Although a resolution, this outcome is reviewed
periodically and clemency is a consideration
Clemency evaluates inmate behavior, against
effects on victim’s family, in making a
determination
Such a program values an individual’s growth to
change allowing a restoration of basic rights
Validation of our Independence Declaration
guidelines of inalienability rights with much
might
In November the voters must decide whether to
continue this administration or it now to abort
This is the rule of law; the rule of, by and for a
people to endure: Our ship of state, is back in
port
AL JOLSON A MUSICAL LEGACY
BY JACK BIRNBAUM
When it comes to singing there is many a
vocalist of melodious voice that turned me on
I think of Frank Sinatra’s smooth purring voice,
legato style, often made me feel real gone
Then Tony Bennet comes to mind his versatility
let him to sing any style and make it ring
When Mel Torme would take off on a riff his
energy and musicality, it became my thing
There are Streisand, Garland, Como, Pavarotti,
Southerland and many other voices I love
But one, Al Jolson, is very special to me as his
message and meanings fit me like a glove
Besides his energy and vocal texture, there are
two reasons I think make him, very special
His singing of a time past, an era of paddle boats
and rafts on the river, no traffic to wrestle
America was younger, the auto was in infancy
and the pace of life slower, a great memory
And second his style was derived from two
differing sources both being important for me
Early in his career Jolson was infatuated with
Negro music both in jazz, as well as the blues
He incorporated their styles, used their melodies,
implanted their lyrics, keeping them true
In his youth Jolson was the cantor for his father,
the Rabbi of a small city’s congregation
His style also reflected the pathos and ecstasy of
Hebrew ritual he learned in this situation
Their influence on Jolson’s style was a result of
common experiences these groups endured
Both Blacks and Jews were enslaved and
discriminated, it was part of their music literature
All of interest to me in view of Jolson’s style and
his choice of lyrics and subject, for sure
I am delighted that Jolson’s art and song are
recorded, his legacy will in future fully, be read
Oh, how we danced on the night we were wed, we
vowed our true love with words never said
Amen
