Veteran’s Square Improvements

As part of their ongoing downtown improvement efforts, the Bradford Area Chamber of Commerce and the Main Street Program are working on the next phase of rehabilitating Veteran’s Square, with plans to purchase and install eight steel eight-foot park benches. The benches are being made my Swan-son’s Fabrication of Bradford, a local company specializing in structural steel

and aluminum, including custom design and engineering. “It was important to us to use a local manufacturer for this pro-ject,” said Anita Dolan, Main Street Man-ager, “and Swanson’s Fabrication has an excellent reputation for working with their customers to achieve high quality, profes-sional results.” Each bench will have a bronze plaque signifying who donated the bench. Wright Monumental Works, also of Bradford, will be creating the plaques. “This is a hometown effort with the Bradford Area Chamber of Commerce and Main Street program working together with local com-panies to achieve a positive visual impact in Veteran’s Square,” said BACC Execu-tive Director Ron Orris. Each bench will have a cost of $1750, which includes en-graving the plaques. Companies, organi-zations, or individuals interested in pur-chasing a bench in memory of or in honor of someone should contact the Chamber offi ce at 814-368-7115. In addition to installation of the bench-es, the Chamber and the Main Street pro-

gram will also be holding a clean-up day for Veteran’s Square later this spring and planting dozens of roses in the area where the tree came down last year. The expect-ed timeline for completion of these efforts will be late April or early May, so that the improvements are all in place before the Memorial Day parade and services. As Dolan noted, “In an effort to keep improving the look of our historic dis-trict, the purchase of the new benches will complement the work that was done on the gazebo last year, therefore improv-ing the overall appearance of Veteran’s Square, which is a signifi cant part of our Main Street’s history.” In 2014, the two organizations worked together to give the gazebo a freshly-painted new look, while the Chamber provided patriotic decora-tions throughout the summer months and holiday lights and greenery during the Christmas season. “Veteran’s Square is a downtown landmark that deserves our at-tention and care, and we look forward to continuing to partner with the Main Street program to help keep it at its best,” said Orris.

5 ¢ENTS WORTH by Grant Nichols It’s A Matter Of Opinion...

Guest Columnist

“Classical Liberalism”-by Bob Perry

The development of ideas for improv-ing government in the 18th -century led to a political ideology that became known as Classical Liberalism. This ideology focused upon the free-dom of individuals and this implied that the individual had an inherent re-sponsibility for the self in all aspects. The key values are liberty and equality, and should exist throughout the world. By all measure any effort to change things including government struc-ture is measured by whether or not the change increases or decreases the in-dividual liberty. The place of govern-ment is to act only to prevent harm to others. Peace is more possible without the interference of government. The individual is essentially considered of more importance than that of the col-lective. Since the individual had more re-sponsibility the need for government interfering was diminished therefore a limited government was essential. The freedoms that were envisioned includ-ed freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, markets and the press. The founding of the United States of Ameri-ca included these rights and the success of the new nation was assured as long as these rights were protected. As time has progressed we have be-come a different nation as distortions have emerged in the interpretation and application of rights. The mere idea of limited government has become a farce as government at all levels have made almost all issues something they can latch onto and give legitimacy to their existence. This makes more and more demand on the resources of the individual thus reducing the freedom of economy each of us had. The lack of accountability in government has promoted corruption at all levels as the unfettered leverage placed upon representatives through money has all but guaranteed failure. Power concen-trated in government has proven to be more value to those that govern than those who are governed. As for the freedom of markets, one is hard pressed to fi nd any segment of the fi nancial world that does not have con-trols placed upon it by with increasing regularity the progressive movement is distorting all sorts of freedoms by de-claring more and more privileges as rights making us all less free and more dependent. Is not then individual the better judge of their own resources than

those that claim to know better but usu-ally don’t? Classical liberalism looks at civil so-cieties as being the better cure for social problems than looking to government for the cure. For example poverty can be better dealt with by organizations like churches and voluntary organiza-tions, but, with government assuming control, not those willing to give but the government forces the tax payers to foot the bill. Loss of a freedom of the individual to use one’s own resources as one sees fi t. This is one example of government planning our lives. We would be much better off living by the values of Classical Liberalism than the road we were led down.

We stopped at GGB Elementary School this week for the photos in this issue. Our fi rst stop was Mrs. Coles’ art classroom where we found Mrs. Tillford’s pre-kindergarten stu-dents hard at work constructing and coloring snowmen from the perspective of a bird’s-eye point of view. Whether these four or fi ve-year-old children were copying their teacher’s model (they were doing a good job of it) or whether they were actually getting out-side of themselves to see the snowman as a bird would do, we do not know. However it is something to consider, that such a concept as seeing things outside of themselves, learning to take another point of view, is being taught in art……..Our second stop was in Mr. Atteberry’s second grade class-room where students were engaged in language arts work associated with the fi rst of Dr. Seuss Reading Spirit Days taking place. While some were reading Dr. Seuss books, others were engaged with books of their choice by differ-ent authors. In addition, their teacher had supplied students with work sheets containing many of Dr. Seuss’s po-ems (that were eventually illustrated and found themselves as books), along with work sheets containing rhyming words……..As local and regional gas-oline prices have varied over the past couple of weeks, prices for gasoline in the Seneca Junction area have re-mained 25-30 cents lower per gallon than locally controlled gasoline. We are told that those who drive to the Sala-manca Casino, Jamestown and Olean have been taking advantage of this and are able to save about $4.00 a fi ll-up. And to this we say, “Good for them!” ……..Having watched water main breaks over the past 30 or so years in Bradford, we think that each pass-ing year brings more direct damage to the delivery system and more dam-age to the community at large, as old rusted pipes predictably burst through-out the City during extreme tempera-ture and pressure changes. It is our un-derstanding that surpluses in revenue collected from operations of the system each year, along with money garnered from the State and Federal government, have been used to lay new pipes in an effort to expand the delivery area and the number of customers. Perhaps it’s time that the water authority board, and management, become good shepherds of this vital service and begin to use surpluses and government money to repair the infrastructure that they have neglected for so many years.

Bradford Journal PhotoLeft to right are Brynn Cross, Arianna Hale Mackenzie Moss, and Anthony Gonzalez, second grade students in Mr. Atteberry’s classroom, March 2nd at GGB Elementa-ry School. It was Dr. Seuss’s birthday and the students were reading poetry among other things to celebrate the day. Macken-zie tells us she likes “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish,” while others liked “Oh, the Places You’ll Go,” and “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”.

BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCESGetting Serious? Five Important Money Questions To Ask If your relationship is heading toward joint fi nances, it’s essential to talk about it fi rst – openly and honestly. A 2014 survey (http://www.nefe.org/press-room/news/financial-infidelity-poses-challenge-for-couples.aspx) by the National Endowment for Financial Edu-cation (NEFE) found that 13 percent said they had failed to share information about their personal debt or income, which had “an effect on the relationship.”his year, consider thinking beyond the roses and candlelight dinners to a poten-tial future of merged fi nances. Here are fi ve key questions that should drive your conversation: Where are you fi nancially as individu-als? Take time to talk about your house-hold debt – including student loans, credit cards, mortgage and medical bills, and share your credit reports from the three major credit reporting agencies (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion). Each can be obtained once a year for free (https://www.annualcreditreport.com/index.action). It’s also important to discuss assets – not only the savings and investments you hold, but also how future job or education plans can improve the marriage or family’s fi nancial health. What are your money personalities? This is a personal fi nance question that many fi nancial planners still ask to get a sense of your money management habits. It’s intended to identify which person in the relationship is the spender or the saver. It’s particularly important to ask each oth-er whether you save or spend to make sure you’re on track to achieve your long-term goals. How do you want to live? This ques-tion is about shared fi nancial and personal goals and how you will achieve them to-gether. Discuss how you’ve been living thus far, and what you might change. Be honest about where you want to live, what kind of home and family you want to have, what kind of career or retirement you want and start discussing concrete ways you both will get there. How will you handle everyday spend-ing? Determine how you will share ac-counts, pay bills, budget, save for the fu-ture and bank – jointly, separately or both. Figure out how will you jointly manage credit and the smartest ways to save for retirement. If you want a family, decide how you’ll plan for kids fi nancially. Fi-nally, work together when problems come up. As with all issues in a relationship, on-going communication is key. What if you need help? There are op-tions if you or your partner doesn’t know where to start. Licensed fi nancial and tax professionals can provide guidance on is-

sues from basic budgeting (http://www.practicalmoneyskills.com/personalfi-nance/savingspending/budgeting/) to pre-nuptial agreements. Friends and family are a good resource for recommendations. Also keep in mind that some religious denominations actually offer solid fi nan-cial planning advice as part of premari-tal counseling and the NEFE has a quiz (http://www.smartaboutmoney.org/Tools-Resources/LifeValues-Quiz.aspx) for po-tential spouses. For debt issues, the Na-

tional Foundation for Credit Counseling is a good independent resource that can offer advice on improving credit issues as a couple. The earlier you can put together an advisory team that fi ts your needs, the better. Bottom line: If you and your sweet-heart are considering tying the knot or ex-panding your family, don’t ignore money issues. It can be a diffi cult conversation to initiate, but it’s an important one to start planning your fi nancial future together.

ON THE HEALTHY SIDE5 Tips to Having A

Happy, Healthy Heart

(NewsUSA) - Everyone knows heart health is vital. Yet, more than 600,000 Americans die of heart disease every year -- or one in every four deaths -- according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. By arming yourself with informa-tion about nutrition, fi tness and life-style choices, you can reduce your risk for heart disease. From picking protein-rich foods that are low in saturated fat to snoozing for the optimal amount of time each night, here are some valuable tips to keep your ticker happy: * Get your protein from foods that are low in saturated fat. While a good steak or hamburger can be enjoyable, it is also high in saturated fat. Better choices are fi sh, poultry and nuts. If you want something even lighter, consider a protein shake. The Bowfl ex Body French Vanilla Fitness Shake (www.bowfl exbody.com), for instance, offers 15 grams of protein per serving and a scant 1 gram of saturated fat. An add-ed bonus is that these shakes activate the metabolism and help build muscle, burn calories and boost energy. * Put down the smartphone. In to-day’s world of 24/7 connectivity, it’s important to unplug from work, email and devices for at least an hour a day. This helps reduce stress, which is im-portant for keeping your blood pressure and heart rate levels from going too high. * Get some rest.

American Institute for Cancer Research Q: If 100% juice is the recommended choice, why is the sugar content on some still so high? A: The reason sugar content is high even in 100% juice is because listed grams of sugar include all forms of sugar, including those that occur naturally in the fruits. But a product labeled 100% juice means it contains only juice or juice concentrate with no added sugars. Choosing 100% juice helps you avoid “empty” calories, which means the natural sugar and calories come with some combination of vitamins, minerals and natural plant compounds (phytochemicals).Navigating juice labels requires careful reading. For example, “100% cranberry juice” must be exclusively cranberry juice; “100% juice, cranberry” cannot contain added sugar, but may be a blend of several juices, and cranberry need not dominate. Since the juice of some fruits, like grapes, tends to be naturally higher in sugar and sweeter tasting than an equal amount of other juice, producers often use grape and apple juice concentrates as the primary juice in a blend, even when the label lists another fruit, such as cranberry, peach or raspberry, as the juice fl avor and name. Read the label. Juice drinks or cocktails – not 100% juice – may have a small amount of real fruit juice, but also contain added sugars like beet and cane sugar and high fructose corn syrup. These beverages lack the nutritional benefi ts of 100% juice.You can have juice drinks that are lower in calories and sugar by diluting them with water, which will also dilute nutrient content. Drinking 100% juice is recommended as the best fruit beverage option, but also note that for most people, solid fruits are an even better choice. A cup of unsweetened solid fruits provides more fi ber and about half the calories and sugar as a cup of unsweetened juice.

What Is Your Cat's Bad Breath Telling You?

(NewsUSA) - How many times has your cat come to wake you up by rubbing his face against your face in the morning? Your cat looks adorable, but the odor com-ing from his mouth may make his affec-tion less than welcome. Of course, you want to freshen your cat’s breath, but be-fore you look into kitty breath mints, you might want to make an appointment with your veterinarian. While post-tuna halitosis is no cause for concern, your cat’s breath should not stink consistently. If you notice an unre-lenting odor, your cat might be suffering from an undetected health issue, such as oral disease or diabetes. If you notice the following smells, have your cat examined by a vet:* A sweet smell. If you cat’s breath smells fruity, it could be a sign of diabetes, especially if the sweet breath is combined with excessive thirst, frequent urination and weight loss.* An ammonia-like smell. If your cat’s breath smells like urine, he could have kidney disease. Other symptoms include loss of appetite, thirst and frequent urina-tion.

Why You Shouldn’t Go Cheap When Filing Your Taxes

It’s that time of year for part-time help at the local tax-preparation location, when drivers can see seasonal staff standing at busy intersections wearing costumes of the Statue of Liberty or Uncle Sam. But they’re not the only ones who are hired part time, says professional advisor to Certifi ed Public Accountants Gary Mar-riage, Jr. “I sometimes ask people, ‘Do you want a guy in a costume to handle your taxes?’ Of course, the guy actually doing the pa-perwork probably won’t be the guy stand-ing near the traffi c, but he’s also not the person you want dealing with your bot-tom line,” says Marriage, CEO of Nature Coast Financial Advisors (www.nature-coastfi nancial.com). “I know millionaires who go to these pop-up tax fi rms; they’d rather spend a few hundred dollars on their return than a grand or two with a skilled CPA. But this apparent savings comes at a cost, because a good accountant is likely to fi nd many thousands of dollars in savings in a single tax return, and they are far less liable to make a mistake.” Marriage offers additional tips for con-sideration this tax season. • Have your records handy, and con-sider a long-term relationship. Not only is it advantageous to fi le taxes through a CPA, it’s also smart to have all relevant records readily available at your disposal – no matter who is helping you with your return. “Not only do I strongly advise you to use a reputable CPA that you can trust, I also think you should try to establish a long-term relationship with him or her,” Marriage says. “Think of a fi nancial pro-fessional as similar to a doctor or law-yer – the better they know you, the better off you’ll be. High-net-worth individuals have the most incentive for professional fi nancial services, even if they’ve made a hobby of saving money by doing things their own way.” • High-income earners pay the vast ma-

jority of income taxes – don’t volunteer more. Taxpayers with incomes exceeding $100,000 earn 60 percent of the country’s income, yet contribute 95.2 percent of the income taxes, according to recent esti-mates from Congress’s Joint Committee on Taxation. Additionally, those earning more than $100,000 – a bit more than 20 percent of taxpayers – pay for 75.7 per-cent of total federal taxes, excluding the burden on corporate and investment taxes. “There are many high-income earners who are passionate about their careers and love

what they do; they care more about their work than their income,” he says. “These tend to be the folks who need reminders that there are legal avenues available for protecting their hard-earned money.” • High-net-worth individuals should consider CRAT. Many people, fi nancial professionals with years of experience, do not know about Charitable Remainder Annuity Trusts, a form of fi nancial protec-tion that Marriage often teaches to CPAs. CRATs are a fl exible and effective instru-

ment used in fi nancial and estate planning. A CRAT provides a signifi cant tax shelter for any assets and property placed within it. That allows any assets in a charitable remainder annuity trust to increase in val-ue without being taxed on the increase. A well-constructed CRAT can provide fi nan-cial security for the annuitants. “CRATs are surprisingly underutilized, but many CPAs I run into simply don’t know about it,” Marriage says. “It’s worth asking your fi nancial advisor about, and if your advisor is unfamiliar with the struc-ture, encourage him or her to look into it.” About Gary Marriage Gary Marriage Jr. is the founder and CEO of Nature Coast Financial Advisors (www.naturecoastfi nancial.com), which educates retirees on how to protect their assets, increase their income and reduce their taxes. Marriage is a national speak-er, delivering solutions for pre-retirees, business owners and seniors on the areas affecting their retirement and estates. He is an approved member of the National Ethics Bureau, and has been featured in “America’s Top Hometown Financial Ad-visors 2011” and most recently selected to co-author a book with Steve Forbes titled, “SuccessOnomics: Power Principles.” Marriage is also the founder of Operation Veteran Aid, an advocate for war-time vet-erans and their families.

5 Signs Your Headache May Be Caused By TMJ

Nearly everyone on occasion expe-riences a throbbing headache that in-terferes with concentration at work or school, or saps the joy from the day. But sometimes the source of that headache can be surprising. For many people, the pain that emanates from the head can be traced back to their teeth, their bite relationship and the alignment of the lower jaw. “Pain doesn’t happen randomly or be-cause of bad luck,” says Dr. Fred Abe-les, author of the book “Break Away: The New Method for Treating Chronic Headaches, Migraines and TMJ With-out Medication” (www.FredAbeles.com). “There’s a cause and effect to almost everything in the human body.” With many headaches, Abeles says, the cause is the temporomandibular joint, or TMJ, the place at the front of the ear where the lower jaw and the temporal bone on the side of the head meet. Sometimes the bite and the lower jaw are out of alignment, putting additional strain on muscles, which leads to the headaches. And for many, TMJ head-aches aren’t going away because peo-ple try to mask the pain with medica-tion rather than correct the underlying cause, Abeles says. But how do you know a headache is caused by TMJ? Abeles says these are some of the warning signs. • Your jaw clicks or pops. Any joint in your body should work silently and seamlessly, Abeles says. If your jaw clicks or pops when you open or close it, it’s a clear sign that the lower half of the joint is not in the proper position. Even if the popping and clicking don’t produce pain, he says, the muscles that have to support and stabilize the joint become fatigued and will produce pain. • Your bite feels off. The TMJ is the only joint in the human body that has 28 teeth stuck between the open-ing and closing motion of the joint to complicate things, Abeles says. Every other joint is completely controlled by muscles, and the position of the joint, its movement and range of motion are mediated by muscle. The TMJ’s position is dictated by where our teeth come together in our bite. So if your bite feels off or your teeth don’t

Medication Will Mask The Pain, Not Cure The Underlying Problem, Expert Says

fi t together well, there’s a good chance your TMJ joints are off, too. • You have pain around your fore-head, temples, back of head or radiat-ing down your neck. Ninety percent of pain comes from muscle, Abeles says. If your muscles are not functioning well because of fatigue from supporting one or both of your TMJ joints in an im-proper position, they produce pain. It’s much like when you exercise or work hard and feel muscle pain later, he says. The only difference is that TMJ is more subtle and chronic. • You have forward head posture. Our heads are supposed to be centered over our shoulders. If yours is in front of your shoulders when you are upright, you have “forward head posture.” That relates to your bite and your airway. The human head weighs about eight to 10 pounds. The farther forward it is off the center axis, the more strain it places on neck muscles and vertebrae. • You snore. Snoring is a red fl ag that respiration during sleep is disturbed, Abeles says. Several factors can lead to snoring, but one of the most important is the position of the lower jaw, he says. If your lower jaw is a little too far back, then the tongue is farther back as well. “If the tongue is slightly farther back than optimal it vibrates against our soft palate, closes off our airway and we snore,” Abeles says. The snoring doesn’t cause the headache, he says, but it could be a sign the lower jaw is too far back. As a result, the muscles that support the jaw in an improper po-sition produce the headache pain. About Dr. Fred Abeles Dr. Fred Abeles is known as one of the most sought after TMJ experts in the United States (www.FredAbeles.com). He’s famous for getting results where all other have failed and getting those results without the use of surgery, nee-dles or drugs. He is author of the new book “Break Away: The New Method for Treating Chronic Headaches, Mi-graines and TMJ Without Medication.” Abeles is the Clinical Instructor and Regional Director for the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies – one of the most prestigious post-gradu-ate teaching centers in the world today. Dr. Abeles has been featured on NBC and CBS, consults with leading dental manufacturers on the development of new dental products, been on the cover of the profession’s biggest magazines and instructed dentists throughout the United States and Canada on state-of-the-art techniques for treating head-aches and temporomandibular joint dysfunction.

What Is Your Cat's Bad Breath Telling You?

(Continued from page 10)

* A bile-like smell. If your cat’s breath smells like vomit, he may have liver prob-lems. Look for other symptoms, includ-ing a swollen belly, loss of appetite and jaundice, or a yellow discoloration in your cat’s eyes and gums.* A smell similar to bad breath smell in humans. If your cat’s breath smells like human morning breath, it might have gum disease, the most common cause of halito-sis. Gum disease is caused by destructive bacteria, which can build plaque and in-fect the gum line. Professional tooth cleanings can help control the problem, but cats (and noses) benefi t greatly from weekly tooth brushing. If your cat won’t allow you to brush its teeth, try using an oral care probiotic such as Teddy’s Pride (www.myteddyspride.com). The tasteless, odorless probiotic powder, which can be sprinkled on pets’ food, fl ood the mouth with healthy bacteria, so the harmful bac-teria that cause bad breath have less room to grow.

Not so fast. When the snowflies in Minneapolis, things arejust heating up in places likeChile. Thanks to a robust SouthAmerican fruit industry, freshblueberries now maintain their fa-vored position in North Americanproduce aisles, culinary creations,and home kitchens all year long.

The popularity of blueberrieshas soared in recent years, drivenby their impressive nutritional re-sume. One half-cup of blueber-ries contains just 42 calories andhelps meet the recommended 5 to9 servings a day of colorful fruitsand vegetables. The “Little BlueDynamos” pack in fiber, potassi-um, Vitamin C and more cancer-fighting antioxidants than eitherwine or green tea. Recent studiesalso show that fresh blueberriescan help keep skin lookingyounger; help prevent dementia,Alzheimer’s disease and heartdisease; and serve as a naturalanti-inflammatory.

Helping the cause significant-ly is that most people considerfresh blueberries a treat, includ-ing children who remain bliss-fully unaware of the health ben-efits. Fresh blueberries are easilyenjoyed as a grab-and-go snack,but there are other sweet and sa-

Grandparents, Keep Your Meds Up and Away From Young Children (NewsUSA) - Grandparents love spend-ing time with their grandchildren. Grand-babies bring so much joy. However, it’s not unusual for the curious, tiny fi ngers of youngsters to end up in places they shouldn’t. Putting precious or breakable objects out of reach is important, and so is keeping medicines and vitamins up and away and out of sight of young children.

More than 70,000 children end up in emergency departments each year af-ter getting their hands on medicines left within reach. That’s 165 kids -- or roughly four busloads of kids -- per day. Far too often, that medicine belonged to a grand-parent. Where are young children getting their hands on medicines? From countertops

and bedside tables, purses and pockets, and loose pills on tables or fl oors. Weekly pill minders can help you keep track of multiple medications, but they rarely have child-resistant features so a curious child can’t get into the colorful medicines stored inside. “Grandparents and parents may not be aware of the danger posed by leaving medications where young children can reach or see them,” says Dr. Dan Budnitz, director of the Medication Safety Program at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). “A few simple steps -- followed every time -- can protect our children.” So, grandparents, enjoy your precious time with your young grandchildren. But whether hosting them in your house or visiting at theirs, remember to store your medicines in a place they cannot access. Here are some tips from CDC’s “Up and Away and Out of Sight” initiative: *Keep all medicines and vitamins up and away and out of sight in a high cabinet or other place inaccessible to your grandchil-dren. If you think you may forget to take your medicines if they are not in sight, leave yourself a reminder on the refrigera-tor or somewhere you check daily. *Never leave medicine or vitamins out on a counter or bedside table, even if you have to take the medicine again in a few hours. *Always relock the safety cap on a medicine bottle. If it has a locking cap that turns, twist it until you hear the click. *Never tell children medicine is candy so they’ll take it, even if your grandchild does not like to take his or her medicine. *Keep purses, bags or coats that have medicines or vitamins in them out of reach and sight of young children. *Program the Poison Help number (1-800-222-1222) into your phone so you have it in case of emergency.

Here, some of Mrs. Tilford’s children work in Mrs. Coles’ class-room at GGB Elementary School during a special, March 2nd. From the left to right are Makenzie Murray, Joshlyn Everly, and Gunner Peranio.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Common Sense Upgrades To Make Your Bathroom Safer

(StatePoint) From burns to slips to trips, bathrooms can be hazardous. In fact, hundreds of thousands of injuries occur in the bathroom annually, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Preven-tion (CDC). Hot water can be a dangerous bathroom peril. More than half a million scald burns occur in the U.S. annually according to the CDC. Prevent “shower shock” by setting your water heater at a maximum of 120 degrees F. One of the most potentially danger-ous bathroom activities is getting in and out of the bathtub safely. Grab bars, hand grips or tub grips around your bathtub or shower can help you keep your balance. And these days, safety features don’t need to look drab or institutional. Brands like Moen are making such fi xtures available in a variety of styles and fi nishes to com-plement bathroom décor. More informa-tion can be found at www.Moen.com. Lastly, women who shave in the shower need to be extra careful. Avoid slips with a shower seat. To make this a practical op-tion, use a handheld showerhead to ma-neuver water easily from a seated position. With a few safety updates, you can make your bathroom a safer place to pamper and prep.

Lighting For Aging Eyes -- Don’t Get Left in the Dark (NewsUSA) - Lighting becomes more important as people age. According to the American Lighting Association (ALA), with each passing year, everyone requires more light to see properly. Terry McGowan, director of engineer-ing for the ALA, says, “Older eyes experi-ence two important changes.” First, the amount of light required to sustain visual performance increases with age. Research shows that a 60-year-old needs twice as much light as a 30-year-old. Second, with time, human eyes become more sensitive to glare. This can seem like a bit of a Catch-22, as more light can of-ten result in increased glare. That’s what makes the quality of light more important as you grow older.

With many baby boomers reaching their mid-60s, homeowners should con-sider user age as a factor in their home lighting design. It is easy to enhance the visual performance and enjoyment for baby boomers and older folks with a few simple lighting adjustments: * Turn on one or two table lamps while watching TV to reduce the contrast between the bright screen and the sur-rounding darkness. * Use a torchiere for uplighting as well as downward illumination for versa-tility. Look for a fi xture with a separate task light attached or one with a glass bowl at the top to shine some light downward. * Have a task light that can be direct-ed or pivoted. In addition to providing suffi cient light, proper lighting design is essential to hu-man health. “As people get older, it isn’t just the

amount of light, it is also the color of the light and when it is applied, that is key to regulating things such as circadian rhythm and REM sleep cycles,” says McGowan. Growing research indicates that light can impact human health in numerous ways, including susceptibility to Alzheimer’s disease. The question is: What exactly can aging people do to help their eyes and health? The answer, according to McGowan, is to enjoy bright days and dark nights. “If you’re older and don’t sleep very well, ex-pose yourself to bright light, such as day-light, early in the morning ... a walk out-side will do it ... and sleep in a dark room at night. That will do everything required to regulate your circadian rhythm,” says McGowan. To see fi xtures to help improve light quality without increasing glare, visit a lo-cal ALA-member retailer or go online to www.americanlightingassoc.com

If you’re like thousands of other car owners who neglected maintenance during the brutalwinter months, your vehicle could use a little extra care by now. Setting aside some timewill help get your vehicle ready for the spring and summer driving season.

Particularly now that lower gas prices are leaving more money in consumers’ pockets, it’s an ideal time to invest that savings into your vehicle so it is safe, more dependable and lastslonger. After all, keeping your car well maintained lets you avoid the cost of higher payments,insurance increases and all the costs associated with purchasing a new car.

“Whether you visit a professional service technician or do it yourself, a thorough vehicle inspec -tion this spring can help keep your car safe and dependable, and help you avoid much highercosts down the road in the form of more extensive repairs or lost resale value,” White said.

“Your car has been through a long winter, working overtime in harsh conditions, but factorssuch as extreme cold, potholes and road salt have taken a toll,” said Rich White, executivedirector of the Car Care Council. “Most Americans rely on their vehicles nearly every day toget to work, school and everywhere in between, so taking the time for car care now can saveheadaches and money in the long run.”

A vehicle inspection should assess the following:

� Brakes� Battery� Levels and condition of all fluids� Tires tread depth and air pressure� Belts and hoses

� Wheel alignment� Check engine light and other illuminated dash -

board indicator lights� Interior and exterior lights and wiper blades

In addition, a repair shop can perform a com -puterized analysis to identify problems with theengine’s performance.

Once your seasonal “check-up” is complete,you can ensure your vehicle’s ongoing bill ofhealth with three simple steps:

1. Keep your vehicle clean.Regular car washes and waxes protect thepaint and body of your car from corrosivedebris. In parts of the country where salt is used on the roads, regular washing isespecially important.

2. Keep an eye on the little things.Your windshield wipers aren’t cleaning as well as they should? Your gas tank ismissing its cap? There’s a warning light on your dashboard? When you see your car needs attention, don’t delay. Repairingsmall things now can help avoid more costly problems down the road, and addyears of useful vehicle life.

3. Keep your car on schedule. Every vehicle has a manufacturer-recommended maintenance schedule.Whether you choose to do your own main -tenance or patronize a local repair shop,following a routine service schedule isessential to keeping your car in safe anddependable working order.

Find additional information to help you drivesmart, save money and be car care aware,including a custom service schedule and emailreminder service, at www.carcare.org, or followthe Car Care Council on Facebook, Twitter,YouTube and Pinterest.

6. Schedule an engine checkto help it deliver the bestbalance of power and fueleconomy, and produce thelowest level of emissions.

7. Check the heating,ventilating and airconditioning system, asproper cooling performanceis critical for the comfort andsafety of you and yourpassengers.

8. Inspect the steering and suspension systemannually including shockabsorbers, struts and chassisparts such as ball joints, tierod ends and other relatedcomponents.

9. Check the tires includingtire pressure and tread.Uneven wear indicates aneed for wheel alignment.Tires should also be checkedfor bulges and bald spots.
