8 JULY 2010

Over the past few weeks when it was so dryand warm, my fl ower garden was

all in bloom. The colors of the Iris, Lilies, and Gladiolas were so beautiful. The trouble

was, with the lack of rain, the fl owers bloomed and wilted in about 2-3 days. They did not last long enough

to be enjoyed.

During these warm summer months, our bodies will exhibit the same behavior as the wilting fl owers if we do not keep them well hydrated. Lack of proper fl uid intake, or dehydration, is a concern for everyone but especially seniors, who are particularly susceptible.

Up to 75% of the bodies weight is made up of water, most of which is found in our cells. Dehydration occurs when the amount of water leaving the body is greater than the amount taken in. In a normal day, a person must drink a signifi cant amount of water to replace fl uids lost just through routine activity. Routine loss can be caused simply by breathing, sweating, urination and bowel movements.

As we age, we become more susceptible to dehydration because our cells hold less water. Dehydration is reportedly on of the top 10 causes of hospital stays among Medicare patients. Therefore, it is important to drink small amounts all day long.

Some symptoms of early dehydration give us warnings to avoid a more severe level of the condition. A sense of thirst is our fi rst indicator. If you feel thirsty then you are already lacking about 2 quarts of water. When you feel a sense of thirst, listen! Get a good drink to answer the bodies call for help. Decreased urination is another symptom. If urine is a dark, concentrated yellow, then chances are you are not drinking enough.

A dry mouth is a third indicator. A lack of tears or inability to sweat also offer warnings. When muscle cramps begin, the symptoms of dehydration are beginning to get more severe. Nausea and vomiting, heart palpitations and light headedness are the fi nal symptoms. At this point, it is important to get help and take action. Severe dehydration can cause confusion, weakness and even a coma, so be smart and drink small amounts frequently throughout the day, even before you feel thirsty.

To avoid dehydration, drink small amounts of water often. As mentioned before, it is better to drink small amounts more frequently than large amounts less often. Stay cool. Avoid strenuous activity in high temperatures to avoid signifi cant fl uid loss and overheating the body. Aside from drinking, eat fruits, vegetables, soups, popsicles, gelatins etc., to get natural liquids into the body.

This summer, beat the heat by joining us at Delmar Place for a tour and a cool drink! Interested seniors can stop by or call to schedule a convenient time. Our drinking water is triple fi ltered and is the best tasting water around! Hope to see you soon.

He’s a giver. A kind soul. A good and honorable man. Those are words and phrases used to describe Frank Murphy. It took me less than ten minutes to come up with my own set of descriptions. If you asked, I would say kind, yes. But more than just kind. There is an honest interest in others and a want to help them. While Honorary Sergeant Major Murphy could have just talked about himself while we met, he didn’t. Instead, he fi rst took the time to ask about my family. We talked about my grandfather, who also fought in our country’s wars. I would also say that humor is a big piece of Frank Murphy. His clear blue eyes are what you might call laughing eyes. Intelligence and a quick, sharp memory stand out as well. Frank Murphy doesn’t lead the life of a typical 85 year old man. Nothing, in fact, is typical here. His mind and energy are that of a twenty year old man, jumping from one subject to the next, recalling details from 1945 like they were yesterday. During the time we spoke, he was up, down, in and out of the kitchen, running around his house to fi nd one more photo, something to illustrate a story. He started by telling me something that he is most proud of: he served in three wars. The fi rst was World War II. He enlisted as an eighteen year old in 1944 and spent three years in Italy. The youngest in his infantry, the men called him, “Baby.” Frank’s face and eyes give away none of the hardships and pain of the war. Instead, he tells a story of how he vowed to maintain strong. To not “crack up” as they said in those days. It was before the age of political correctness, and they just said it like it was. There were no terms like a “stress syndrome.” What they said, and what they meant, was “cracking up.” The story goes something like this: Frank promised himself he would never smoke cigarettes. Wouldn’t touch them. And there, in the brutal trenches of the blood-soaked war, he watched as every other soldier smoked, one

after the other. They were free, after all. And possibly the only pleasure a soldier had on a given day. It’s easy to imagine that many of those soldiers held on to those cigarettes. Needed them, really, to keep sane. But to Frank it was a sign of weakness. And once he gave in to the smokes, then he might start the descent into mental illness. The “cracking up” bit mentioned earlier. You can rest assured that Honorary Sergeant Major Murphy did not crack up on the long march through Italy. A march that took him from the Arno River, through the Hitler Line, Rome and the Po River. Finally, with many honors and medals, Frank Murphy marched home in 1947. His service was not over, though. Far from it. A few years

later, after some traveling and working, Frank volunteered for the Infantry again. Now in his mid-twenties, he was no baby and knew what the battlefi eld was like. Bravely, he stepped up for his country and went to the Korean War. Sitting in his kitchen, all of these many decades later, he showed me pictures and articles. Scraps of a painful war. On this subject, he didn’t say much. The Korean War, Frank told me, was the hardest. He was quiet for a moment after he said that. Really the only silence during our talk. But after that tiny lull, he was off and running again. Pointing out his comrades in the old black and white photos. Who made it. Who never came home. There was also a tour of Vietnam, for which he received the Vietnam Service Medal. This, along with his Korean Service Medal, is kept in a large frame, next to his fi replace. An obvious source of pride, it was the fi rst thing he showed me as I walked though his door. At the top of the many rows of medals and honors, sits the Combat Infantryman Badge. This was awarded to soldiers who fought in active combat, and were recognized for outstanding service. Among those medals hanging by the fi replace are two Bronze Medals, an Army Commendation Medal, the National Defense Service Medal and a Good Conduct Medal. The last one causes him to chuckle, and those blue eyes twinkle with a mischievous smile. Frank wonders how he could have ever been awarded this one. After all, he says, he spent his early days being a loudmouthed kid. This is punctuated by his infectious laugh, and I laugh too. It’s hard to imagine this gentle, dedicated man ever being a loudmouth.And just like that, Frank is off on another story. This one about visiting Australia after World War II. At the end of a long journey, he met the woman who would become his wife. Promising he would come back for her, he left the Outback to resume his service in the army. True to his word, Frank did go back for his bride. They returned to the states together and raised a daughter. Now a grandfather, he proudly showed me pictures of a beautiful little girl.

He has spent a lifetime serving our country, with no plans to stop

anytime soon.

Hey, if you know a Bethlehem neighbor who has a unique story or amazing accomplishment, please email:

[email protected]

As we sat together and talked, I looked out the big window in Frank’s kitchen. There, stretched out, is a peaceful, well-tended garden. Sculptures and squirrels are there among the wind chimes, creating a blissful sanctuary. I couldn’t help but think about the contrast between the war pictures spread on the table and the tranquility of the fl owers and leaves, moving in the summer breeze. Frank hasn’t slowed down much these days. His wiry frame and nervous energy stay on the move. There is a lot of volunteering, for the Army, and going door-to-door, asking for signatures for petitions. It’s said that he is the best around, using that charm and smile to collect more signatures than anyone else. At 85 years old, Frank continues his march in public service. He has spent a lifetime serving our country, with no plans to stop anytime soon. You might see Honorary Sergeant Major Frank Murphy on your doorstep with a petition in hand or at the local coffee shop. And if you do, be sure to thank him.

20 JULY 2010

2010 Black Fly Challenge ~ One of the most appealing aspects of unicycling is being the very fi rst unicycle to do a given trail, ride or race. Searching online for such a race, I came upon the Black Fly Challenge, a 38.4 mile race through the central Adirondacks, in upstate New York. I’ve ridden that distance, and more, many times, but always on paved roads. The Black Fly course has an ominous reputation, with mostly dirt roads of varying quality and a ridiculous amount of ups and downs, so I knew it was a goal which would test my endurance. After a polite note to the race organizers listing some of my bigger unicycling accomplishments, to allay any fears they may have had of me simply dying somewhere in the Moose River wilderness, they accepted my entry fee.

As race-day, June 12, 2010, approached, unfortunately, the Adirondacks were cool and rainy all week, and weather forecasts were calling for rain and thunderstorms on race day. The butterfl ies in my stomach grew to bats. On the two hour drive to Indian Lake early on race morning, as the mist grew to sprinkles and then light rain, I refused to turn on my windshield wipers. If I didn’t acknowledge the rain, maybe I could will it away. No such luck. Arriving in the parking lot, I pulled in next to a bicyclist named Mike, readying his gear, as the rain picked up into the deluge range.

With the hammering rain eroding my confi dence, perhaps they sensed the butterfl ies, now vultures and condors, buffeting about in my guts, I thought of Bill Murray’s line in the movie “Caddy Shack”, where, in the midst of a biblically torrential storm, he tells the priest for whom he’s caddying, “I don’t think the heavy stuff’s coming down for some time yet.” Shortly afterward, the priest is fatally struck by lightning. As our shuttle ride approached an hour’s duration, it dawned on me that we were expected to traverse this same distance in the next few hours, by cycling on dirt roads and mountains somewhere off to the south. In fact we had even paid money to do so. Just as this thought occurred, a starkly defi ned lightning bolt punctuated the gloomy clouds out the bus’ front windshield, and my intestinal condors became pterodactyls.

We arrived in Inlet, where unloading my unicycle from the bus earned me a bunch more hairy eyeballs and look-at-this-nut looks. I wheeled the uni under a pavilion and went into the town-hall to register and collect my timing chip. At the table I informed the organizers that I was “the unicyclist”, and, handing me my race packet, they asked me where I was going to put the race number. “In the spokes”, I said. There was brief conferencing behind the race table that it needed to be more visible, but I relaxed everyone by pointing out that I’d be quite easy to recognize, as the only uni.

Even better, the rain, which had been pounding down steadily for a couple hours at this point, stopped inexplicably ten minutes before the 10:30 AM start time. Everybody, including me, of course, got on their cycles and started looping around the parking lot. I was suppressing giggles as I was being trailed by a wave of astonishment, with snippets of “…a unicycle?”, “what the…?”, “…riding that…?” and “oh-my-God”. I recently mounted a small bell on the handlebar, (ala New Zealand unicycle buddy Ken Looi), so I mostly answered with a non-committal “ding-ding”.

Then the race organizer, Dave, started megaphoning, setting up for the start, and he asked the tandems and the unicycle to please come to the front of the pack. I wove though the bicycles and surveyed the racers lining the fi rst couple rows at the start line.

Grim and determined, intent on winning the race personally, each of them looked ready to eat anyone in their path, and crap out the spokes and cogs in their wake. Squeezing into their midst would have been certain death-by-knobby-tires, and I quickly decided a position off to the side would be more prudent. With similar discretion, two couples on tandems, and a triple tandem with a dad and his two young sons, also took fl anking positions. At three-two-one-go, I waited for the more rabid bikers to crank off, then hopped on my unicycle, still wondering what sort of dirt surfaces awaited us after the fi rst couple miles of pavement. The noise of the cheering crowds lining the streets of Inlet swelled with surprise as they spied a unicycle, and I smiled and ding-dinged my bell, much to their pleasure. Cameras snapped and one fellow racer even made a short video of me as he rode beside me. I shifted my unicycle into its second gear as Route 28’s rolling hills carried us easily out of town, toward the Limekiln Gate and the start of the dirt roads.

We didn’t have to wait for hills to appear. Limekiln Road starts climbing right away, not too steeply, but steadily, and I began passing bikers on the ascent, assuaging their chagrin (ugh – passed by the unicyclist!), telling them not to worry.

“You’ll be fl ying past me on the downhill side.”“Wait, you can’t coast?” “Nope – fi xed gear.”

This fi rst hill had a bunch of cyclists pushing their bikes up, but I managed to ride this, and every, hill on the course, without stopping. We crested this fi rst big climb, and, sure enough, all those riders I had crept past on the uphill fl ew effortlessly past me, their speed inadvertently mocking my snail’s pace. Rather than coasting downward, I have to fi ght gravity to keep my speed in check, so I use a brake to drag away some of the effort of descending and save my quads. Hitting a washboard of bumps and then an embedded rock, I squeezed the brake a little too hard, let up a little too much, and, lurching back and forth like a drunkard on skates, I fl ew off into a forward roll as my uni slammed to the dirt. Fixing a slight twist in my handlebars and answering several bikers’ concerned questions – “Yes, I’m fi ne, thank you” - I resumed the descent. I was still determined to use the brake, a tricky skill on a unicycle, just maybe not until the next hill.

I knew this ride was long enough that my body would need constant refueling. I was paying attention to my GPS watch, and making sure to eat an energy gel packet every half hour, and wash it down with plenty of water. I was carrying a water-pack, and there were dependable volunteers staffi ng water stations about every

fi ve miles, so my routine quickly settled into a gel and water bottle every station. My own water was enough to supplement this, and I never ran out.

Right after the fi rst hill came a bigger one, with lots of little hills combining to bring us up 500 vertical feet over a couple miles. I passed several bikers again, most of whom had just past me a few moments earlier, and would, in turn pass me again shortly afterwards. We turned left and climbed another few 100-footers, me and the same group of cyclists still leapfrogging, and rolled out onto the Moose River plains, the only fl at portion of the race. This was the worst surface yet, with slightly deeper tracks in the wet sand. It was not too bad, but I was having trouble spinning a good pace due to the consequent wobbling.

I knew from my GPS and knowledge of the course map that the subsequent downhills indicated we had crested the race’s highest point. Because the terrain is constantly rolling hills, it certainly wasn’t “all downhill” from there, but the biggest climbs were done. With tired thighs but a happy head, I chowed another gel-pack and forced myself carefully, but purposefully, to use my brake to save my legs for 20 more miles of riding. Of course, I soon hit another set of washboards and rocks while braking, got bucked off, and slid unceremoniously to a sandy halt, once again telling fellow cyclists, “Yes, I’m fi ne, thank you.”

The pack of racers was pretty thinned out at this point, but I stilled leapfrogged with a few bikers on the rolling hills, passing them on the uphills and watching them fl y by, without pedaling, on the descents. The terrain undulates remarkably, with no fl at riding, but rather continuous 50-foot ups and downs for the next several miles, until, fi nally, we got to the last 8-miles paved part of the course. I was hammered by now, but thrilled because I‘d fi nally reached the easy part.

NOT! There were plenty of hills left on the road to Indian Lake. I was now able ride as fast as I could spin my higher gear, nearing 20 mph (that’s too fast on a unicycle), on the downhills, but I’d had enough climbing for the day, thank you very much. My thigh muscles were fl ickering on the verge of serious, seizing cramps. The Adirondacks didn’t care for my whining, however, and, after every sweet descent, another mini-climb reared up. At about the 34 mile point, after stopping at the last water station, chatting for a minute and eating another energy gel, I re-mounted for the last push.

Jaws dropped and voices rose up as I came into view of the parking lot. People who had been shouting encouragement to the widely scattered fi nishers suddenly all surged toward the street to cheer me in on the home stretch. I checked my watch and realized I’d broken my 4-hour goal, by about a minute. I ding-dinged my little bell all the way down the last 100 yards, then dismounted, my quads feeling very close to disabling, brick-like cramps. After returning my timing chip (don’t lose it or it’s $110!), I remounted and rode down the parking lot to my truck, which contained food (I was pretty sick of gel-packs) and warm, dry clothes.

At the awards ceremony, I didn’t win anything (no unicycle category), but was given a nice mention by Dave, the organizer, and enjoyed a booming round of applause from all the bikers. Many of them may not have realized that what I’d done was possible, and many of them came up and congratulated me. I was beaming, partly from the strong beer, but mostly, from all the attention, which, of course,

is another of my other favorite aspects of unicycling.

Overall, I fi nished 289th out of 319 fi nishers, with a time of 3:58:41.

Cold Facts About AC RefrigerantHow did we ever get along without air conditioning in our cars? It’s a feature we take for granted until, suddenly, it’s blowing hot air.

In the past few years, many owners have discovered that fi xing an inoperative air conditioner can cost a few hundred dollars or more, depending upon the make and model of vehicle. The reason is that the old standby R-12 refrigerant, trade named DuPont Freon, has been replaced by R-134a. Touted as being environmentally safer than its predecessor, R-134a has been standard since ’94.

If your older vehicle needs major repairs to the air conditioning system you can expect to replace refrigerant and the oil in the compressor in addition to the old components. You also may need to install a retrofi t conversion. Do not allow anyone to mix refrigerants. They’re not inter-changeable. You cannot add R-134a to your older air conditioner without fi rst fl ushing the system. Further, according to the Car Care Council, some substitutes are volatile mixtures of propane, butane and fl ammable hydrocarbons. Keep in mind the fact that if your vehicle is leaking refrigerant, you’re damaging the ozone layer.

An annual inspection of the vehicle, including the air conditioning system, may help forestall costly repairs. Many automotive service shops offer AC inspection specials when warm weather arrives. Otherwise, ask your service center to evaluate your system before those hot and humid days of summer.

Letter from our Town SupervisorSam Messina

Your Bethlehem Town government serves you best when we get beyond the day-to-day stuff that is always there, when we try to be different, and when we excel. In that regard I just wanted to mention some noteworthy items that are helping us

become a better community.

We’ve had several very visible efforts that are very nice partnerships with town government:

You can’t help but notice the numerous gardens around town, planted and maintained by the Bethlehem Garden Club together with Town highway crew assistance.

The Mohawk Hudson Land Conservancy held its fi rst Trail Day with informative events at each of its fi ve nature preserves in Bethlehem. Town departments provided advice to ensure a safe and successful event.

While it is already history, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the impressive turnout at the Memorial Day Parade. Whether a participant, or a viewer, the parade was an honor to our veterans and their families, and another expression of community spirit and unity.

Partnerships and outreach doesn’t end with those things. At Town hall we are busy implementing commitments to engage the community in important ways.

Bethlehem Community Meetings Around Town – For the fi rst time in Bethlehem’s history, your Town board and staff have gone out into the community to provide information that is important for neighborhoods to know, and even more important, for us to listen. The meeting we had in Selkirk, at Fire District # 1, attended by 45 people, the fi rst of many quarterly meetings that we will have to bring a sort of “New England Town Hall” concept to Bethlehem. Our next meeting will be on August 26th at 7:00 P.M. at the North Bethlehem Fire House, 589 Russell Road, Albany, NY. If you have issues you want to discuss, join us and let us know.

Focus on Business Forums – Another fi rst, Bethlehem Town government, the Chamber of Commerce, business persons and the public came together for presentations from Town staff and others on initiatives important to businesses, and then to learn about the concerns and hopes of businesses directly. About 35 people attended this meeting at Town Hall, and the next one will be on August 11th at 7:45 A.M. at Bethlehem Town Hall, 445 Delaware Avenue. This is exciting work, and our goal is to be supportive of businesses, large and small, because businesses are a vital part of the fabric of our community, going well beyond fi nancial and employment considerations. Awards for Service – This past month, offi cers in our Police Department received various awards for Gallantry, Achievement and Life Saving. It is a wonderful part of Bethlehem that our offi cers serve the public so well, and individual recognition will be appropriately described in our upcoming Bethlehem Report, and is already included on our Bethlehem Town website.

There is more to mention and I am proud of the work that has been accomplished by our Town staff, and guided by the Town Board, but I need to move on to what I see as a Road Map for the next few months. A Road Map that will have a positive impact on our Town for years to come. The driving force behind all of the crucial Destinations (which are opportunities) should be that Bethlehem needs to be a sustainable community. Sustainability means that costs need to be in balance with revenues, and growth and development need to be in balance with desired community character.

So, your Supervisor, Town Board, Town staff, other Boards, and volunteers have a lot of important work to do over the next couple of months – and I am confi dent that we will do it, and do it well, for the residents and businesses of Bethlehem.

Let me also encourage everyone to take advantage of the wonderful opportunities in our Town.

Check out some of the happenings at Elm Avenue Town Park, Henry Hudson Park, Colonial Acres Golf Course and other facilities by visiting our Town website (townofbethlehem.org) and then clicking on the Parks and Recreation link.

If you are a senior, visit our Town website and click on Senior Services to see how our services could help you this summer, including local shopping center trips. There are also a number of useful informational sessions dealing with such things as senior discussion groups, legal service programs, and social and recreational programs to see the New York City Ballet at SPAC and a Mystery Play and dinner at the Cyprus Shrine Center in Glenmont.

Finally, I hope everyone has a great summer. Be safe, and know that all of us here at Town Hall will do our very best to serve you and our entire community well!

Sincerely,Sam Messina

Destination The Road We Should Take 2011 Budget In light of likely reduced County sales tax and mortgage transfer tax

revenues coming to Bethlehem, Town leaders need to make the hard decisions to reduce expenditures without impacting essential services. Revenues define and limit expenditures.

Economic Development

Town Government and the Bethlehem Industrial Development Agency (BIDA), working together, need to be proactive and use creative approaches to achieve taxpaying economic development in the Vista Technology Park and in the Selkirk Rail Yard area.

Planning Town Government needs to set priorities within and among various initiatives and show increased progress in such areas as: the Delaware Avenue Hamlet Enhancement Study; 9W Corridor Study; the Hudson River Local Waterfront Revitalization Proposal (LWRP); Paths 4 Bethlehem Committee; Citizen Advisory Committee on Conservation (CACC).

Capital Program Complete the analysis and Town Board decision making that needs to be accomplished to approve and implement a plan and investment strategy for infrastructure for water supply, waste water and facility needs.

Economy, Efficiency and Effectiveness

Implementing the recommendations from the 20/20 Committee Report, particularly to: a) Improve the Town’s organization and operations, and b) Work together with all taxing jurisdictions (the Town, School District, Fire Districts, etc) to provide services to Town residents.

Good Government

With the Town Board working as a team there are a number of things that could advance, such as public access to Board meetings from personal computers, provision of public access to Town Board meeting electronic agenda attachments and streamlining Board minute preparation.

Q: My vet told me that my dog and cat are overweight. How do I know they are overweight? What do I do to get them to lose weight?

A: No one is immune to America’s obesity epidemic, not even pets. According to a recent National Academy of Science study it is estimated that one out of every four cats and dogs are overweight or obese. Since more pets are overweight, we have become accustomed to seeing pets who weigh more than is ideal. Your dog and cat may look cute with a roly-poly tummy, but it can be dangerous to their health, causing many of the same problems suffered by obese humans.

An overweight pet is not a healthy pet. Owners are putting their pet’s health at risk by allowing extra weight. Obesity commonly leads to or exacerbates diabetes, heart and respiratory problems, and orthopedic conditions such as cruciate ligament rupture and arthritis. An overweight pet does not age well, either. Overweight pets are more prone to hip dysplasia, back and joint pain, and endocrine diseases. Extra weight

also decreases a veterinarian’s ability to manage these conditions both medically and surgically.

Keeping your pets at a healthy weight can literally add years to their lives. Studies have shown that lean pets have fewer health problems and have an extended lifespan of up to two years longer than their overweight counterparts. A fat cat or dog, may result in a fat bill, too. Veterinary Pet Insurance (VPI), the nation’s oldest and largest provider of pet health insurance, reimbursed more than $14 million last year for claims with links to pet obesity.

Putting your pet on the scale is not the best way to evaluate if they are overweight. There is tremendous variation in an animal’s ideal weight. Looking at an animal’s body condition is the best way to judge where your pet falls on the obesity spectrum. Body condition scores are most commonly rated on a 5- or 9-point scale, with the middle of the scale designated ideal. The pet is scored by looking at its build, the amount of fat overlying its ribs, and its “waist.” You should be able to feel your pet’s ribs easily without having to dig in, but you should not be able to see the ribs sticking out through the coat. There should be a nice “tummy tuck” in the abdominal area. Your pet’s torso, viewed from above, should resemble an hourglass.

Why are more pets overweight? The answer is the same for pets as well as people: too many calories going in and not enough exercise. The most common reason for overfeeding is that owners want to show their pet they care and one way is to give a treat. One extra treat can turn into 5 and then 10. If given the chance most animals will eat more than they need. Be aware exactly how much you are feeding your pets. Make sure to use a standard measuring cup, not a super-size cup from a fast food chain.

Talk to your veterinarian to fi gure out the ideal weight for your pet, then monitor your pet’s weight with weekly or bi-weekly “rib checks” and weigh-ins. Never start your pet on a diet without consulting your veterinarian. If your pets are overweight, they should fi rst be evaluated for underlying metabolic or endocrine disorders.

Working with a veterinarian is the best way to formulate a healthy diet for your pet, determine your pet’s ideal weight, and create a weight loss plan. Contact your local veterinarian if your pet is overweight Don't get Our Towne in the mail....

THE

What do I need for a Summer First-Aid Kit?

Paul Pagnotta, Pharmacist & Co-Owner Four Corners Pharmacy

Finally ready for some summer fun in nice weather? Don’t forget to bring along your fi rst aid kit. The American Red Cross recommends having a well stocked fi rst aid kit in your home and car.

What items should be included in a fi rst-aid kit? It is important to have some basic items in your kit (listed below). However, make sure that your kit includes anything special your family might need for their own health (prescription medications, epi-pens for bee allergies) or for the type of trip you are taking (snake bit kit in certain parts of the country, or blister bandages for long hiking trips). Check the kit about twice a year when you change your clocks (and smoke alarm batteries) to be sure everything is in date and nothing is missing.

Supplies MedicationsFlashlight (with extra batteries Anti-diarrhea medicineScissors Motion Sickness pillsTweezers Sunscreen with UVA & UVB protectionThermometer Lip balm with sunscreenSafety pins Calamine lotion (bug bites, poison ivy)Eyewash cup Eye saline dropsElastic bandage Antibiotic ointment (cuts and scrapes)Waterproof tape Hydrocortisone Cream (rash, bug bites)Butterfl y bandages Hydrogen peroxide (wound cleansing)Blanket Instant hand sanitizerWaterproof matches Baby aspirin 81mg (heart attack)Instant bold back Bug repellentBandagae strips Acetaminophen (fever, pain)Gauze pads Aloe gel or spray (sunburn)Disposable Gloves – non latex Emergency contact information (phone numbers for doctors and family) How do I use the medications and products suggested?Get a pocket fi rst aid book for the kit to be prepared and read the medication box to know when to use them and how to use. More importantly, read when not to use them. For example, it is recommendation not to use anti-diarrhea medication in someone with a fever.

How can I avoid motion sickness while traveling in a car, boat, airplane, or train? There are a few things you can try to avoid motion sickness. First, face forward looking at the outdoors and look far toward the horizon. Get in the middle of whatever you are riding to get the least amount of movement. Some people fi nd settling their stomach with dry crackers or bland pretzels helps ease the nausea. There are non-medication wrist bands which work for many people available at a low cost and non prescription medications. However, medications must be taken before the trip starts, they can make you drowsy and should not be used in certain people. Ask your doctor or pharmacist and read the package.

What sort of bug repellent should I put in my fi rst aid kit?Insect repellants containing 20-30% DEET is effective at preventing mosquito and tick bites. It is safe to use infrequently and in low concentrations. DEET should be applied only to exposed areas of the skin and not underneath clothes. Reapply it every few hours (check the product label). To limit exposure to DEET do not apply it to broken, wounded or sun-burned skin and wash the treated area and clothes with soap and water after returning indoors. Concentrations above 30% DEET are not recommended for prolonged or frequent use, but can be used for activities where high concentrations of ticks or mosquitoes are found. For children (under age 5) use products containing less than 10% of DEET and try to avoid repeated applications. Spray the product on your hands fi rst and then apply it to your child to avoid children transferring the product from their hands to their eyes, nose or mouth. Alternatives to DEET, such as picaridin and oil of lemon eucalyptus can repel mosquitoes but may not repel ticks.

How should we manage sunburn?If you could not avoid sunburn by using a broad spectrum UVA UVB sunscreen, you can reduce the pain and heat of a mild to moderate sunburn. Apply cool, wet compresses to the affected area and an aloe based lotion or spray can soothe the pain. Over the counter sprays containing Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, can help alleviate the heat and pain associated with sunburn. It is important to stay hydrated so make sure to drink plenty of fl uids when healing sunburn. For continued sunburn pain, over the counter medications such as ibuprofen and naproxen are also helpful in reducing pain and infl ammation. However, be sure to read the package label on how to use these medications safely. During the recuperation process avoid further sun exposure.

What else can I do to protect my family on a summer vacation? There are many things you can do to protect your family. Having a fi rst-aid kit is no substitute for prevention. The best way to deal with injury and illness is to prevent it. Remember to get proper rest, don’t drive when tired, and take a cell phone for emergencies. Consider taking a Red Cross First Aid or CPR class to better handle family emergencies. You can also read reference books about plants and bugs to help better protect your family from common summer ailments. And always be aware of your family’s sensitivities and needs so you can protect him or her as necessary.

Lehmann’s Garage in Selkirk originated as a blacksmith shop in 1913. As the car overtook the horse as a means of travel, the business evolved to auto mechanics. Now run by Bert Lehman, the great grandson of the founder, this could be the oldest continuous family run business in Bethlehem. This photo was taken about 1930. The reason for two “n’s “ in the name is unknown.

Do you want to live to be 100+? If we could live independently and happily, most of us would, given the choice. Quality of life, of course is the key consideration - at any age and research continues to confi rm that we have more control over our quality of life and longevity than we may think. The Danish Twin Studies, a population-based study of 2872 pairs of same gender twins established that less than 25% of how long we live is determined by our genes, therefore implying that how long and how well we live is, in large part, up to us.

With an abundance of opinions out there on how to increase the odds of living a long productive life, how do you know what to believe? If you’re over 40 years old, you know by now that anything currently touted as THE miracle supplement, food or exercise is likely to be replaced in a year or two by another supplement, food or exercise.

And besides....exactly how many years will all of this worrying about what to do take off your life?

In his bestselling book The Blue Zones, author Dan Buettner describes visiting, along with a team of longevity researchers, four locations around the world where people live 100 years or more at a rate 10 times higher than most Americans. The zones are Sardinia, a small island off the coast of Italy, Okinawa, a small community in Coast Rica, and a community of Seventh Day Adventists living in Loma Linda, CA.

Some of the common traits among these people share are:* Their diet is mostly plant-based, organic and grown locally. Okinawans practice eating until they are about 80% full so as not to overeat.

* They live active lives: gardening, chopping wood, shepherding, walking or bicycling as their main mode of transportation.

* They drink a moderate amount of alcohol daily. Canonau, a Sardinian red wine, has the world’s highest level of antioxidants!

* They believe in a higher power - some through organized religion or belief that their ancestors are watching over them...they feel a sense of calm and are not afraid of dying.

I would argue that perhaps the most important of all, they’re connected to a social group – friends, family, and communities and wake up each day with a sense of purpose. In most cases they continue to care for family members and in return are honored and cared for by their families as they age. Okinawans have a name (mokai)

for a daily meeting with friends ensuring that they stay connected, sharing the ups and downs of each others’ lives, emotionally and fi nancially. They have the security of knowing that they have help facing any challenge.

If you’re looking to connect with local people who share common interests and engage in work that you believe in, check out the website www.volunteermatch.org Enter your zip code, city or state and key words describing the opportunity you’re looking for, or the skills you have or would like to develop.

Staying connected with the world keeps us young no matter our age. The beauty of old age is the experiences we’ve had, which combined with a sense of humor and tolerance for those of us less-evolved-non-centenarians, makes us even more interesting and more fun to be around!

Looking for something to do with the whole family? Looking for a reason to get the gang together? Looking for a special project for your civic, church or youth group to do together?

On Saturday, October 16,, 2010, the American Heart association will hold its annual Start! Heart Walk at the Crossings of Colonie in Albany, NY.“We are looking to increase the participation of community groups such as sororities, fraternities, religious institutions, high schools and colleges in this year’s Capital Region Start! Heart Walk,” said Meredith Cohn, Senior Director. “Everyone knows someone who has been affected by heart disease or stroke, and the Heart Walk is a nice way to honor their survival or commemorate their memory. There will be healthy snacks, music, health information and screening, children’s activities and the chance to take a pleasant walk on a beautiful fall day.”

The newly formed Community Teams Committee will be chaired by Thelma Hill. Thelma has been a strong advocate for the American Heart Association for most of her life, having fi rst been diagnosed with a congenital heart defect as a child.

“My youthful heart sustained me well into adulthood. I am now the recipient of a mechanical valve and am a healthy,

active, mature woman who says go when someone says ‘let’s,’ dances like no one is watching, hikes mountain trails and is always open to new and challenging activities. Medical research funded by the American Heart Association contributed to my survival,” Thelma said.

Thelma has organized and led the team, Sistah With A Heart, for the past four years. “Cardiovascular disease is not in contention for fi rst place, it is the No. 1 Killer of Americans and stroke is No. 3,” she said. “The American Heart Association pumps funds into educating the heart of our community and conducts medical research to save lives. Participating in the annual Start! Heart Walk is my way of saying thanks.”

Won’t you join us in forming a community team? The AHA will provide information to make it easy to create a

community team and raise funds for the Start! Heart Walk! To learn more about forming a Community Team, visit www.capitalregionheartwalk.org, call 518-869-4042 or e-mail [email protected].

Start! is nationally sponsored by Subway. The local Start! cause sponsor is CDPHP and the Times Union, B95.5 and FOX23 are media sponsors.

At Capital Region Physical Therapy, we understand that your pain is personal, and your treatment should be. That’s why we offer individualized rehabilitation programs.

Summer salutations fellow readers…

Summertime provides the unique opportunity to spend, perhaps, a bit more time reading for pleasure. During my years working in school, and as an Elementary School Principal, I looked forward to the summer months to “catch up” on reading for pleasure! On a recent long weekend to our family camp on Sebec Lake, Maine, I actually read 1 ½ books while sitting on the front deck with little Riley. Between my swimming and birdwatching (loons swimming & fi shing off the end of the dock, mama duck proudly showing off her 3 new babies, and countless butterfl ies and black-capped chickadees passing through) I fi nished 2 books by Charlaine Harris: Dead in the Family (10th in the Sookie Stackhouse series) and the 2nd book in the “Lily Bard” mysteries series, “Shakespeare’s Champion”. Like her character, Sookie Stackhouse, Harris has created another strong, moral, Southern female in Lily Bard. A survivor of personal tragedy, she reinvents herself in the small town of Shakespeare, Arkansas. This karate kicking, body building heroine sets out to live a quiet, simple life as the town’s cleaning woman. In this series of 5 mysteries, she fi nds herself in the center of hidden secrets, lies, indiscretions and murder most foul! These are an example of “mystery cozies” at their best!

School age children often have assigned reading lists. Some dread that these books are “assigned” and may be reluctant to get started. In the past I suggested that you “share” a reading with your child. I suggested reading aloud to even your middle school child to heighten the experience. Last year I suggested that you read along with your child and have your own unique book discussion. Your child could keep his/her writing skills active while keeping a reading journal. Though we all want our children to read for pleasure, some guidance may make the experience more meaningful. If you read the same book along with your child, you could also take notes or pose questions. I always squeezed some book discussion time into our car rides, while doing dishes, or working on a task together with my child in the past. Rainy days were the best! The TV would not come on and the books would come out. Sometimes we found non-fi ction books to be our inspiration for the day. I remember reading dinosaur books and drawing a mural on a roll of large white paper, on the kitchen fl oor, with my sons. The mural was complete with volcanoes, swamps and dinosaurs. After reading a series of Native American stories, we created a teepee made from broom and mop handles and blankets held together with clothes pins. We read inside the teepee and my youngest even napped with his book and favorite teddy bear under his arm.

I also suggested that during the summer that you dip back into your “reading list”. Pulling out a “required reading” of days gone by can be a wonderful experience. With a more mature eye, a little distance between the fi rst time you read this book, or just a variety of life experiences can make a book all the more meaningful.

One of my favorite regulars, Amanda, (a Senior in the fall at BCHS) recently visited the store and fi lled her backpack with Shakespeare and other classics. Not one day out of school and she was already diving into reading books of her choice for pleasure! She always brings me great books in trade for our store as well! Our young adult section is overfl owing with great choices for your older student reader. Everything from the “Pendragon” series by D.J. MacHale, “Charlie Bone” series by Jenny Nimmo, “Cirque du Freak” series by Darren Shan, “A List” series by Zoey Dean, “Clique” series by Lisi Harrison, as well as a great selection of contemporary and historical fi ction writers.

For readers in grades 3-7 we have hundreds of chapter books with well known children’s authors such as Avi, Clements, Dahl, Howe, Patterson, Paulsen, Robinson, Sachar, Spinelli, Peck, Yip, and Yolen to name a few. For your emergent readers we have leveled reading books as well as all time favorite young reader chapter books such as: Junie B. Jones, Polk Street School, Cam Jansen, Jigsaw Jones, Horrible Harry, Flat Stanley, Magic Treehouse, Bailey School Kids, Magic Schoolbus, Animal Ark, Pony Pals, Box Car Children and My Weird School series.

With approximately 1,000 picture and board books with everything from Sesame Street, Disney, Arthur, Clifford, Franklin, to Dr. Seuss, we are sure to have something your youngest child might enjoy.

Our store receives approximately 250 books per week from customers to add to our inventory… receiving many books published within the last few months! We currently have over 18,000 books in stock.

Don’t forget us when it comes to fi lling your students’ summer reading requirements. We have thousands of books to chose from all at 20-60% off the publisher’s price. May a book be a part of your summer experience…and when you are ready to look for a book…I’d be glad to help at Tattered Pages Used Books. Until next month….revisit an old favorite book…share a great story with a child…fi nd a new favorite for your shelf…happy reading!

Launch Your “Summertime” Investment Strategy Now that summer is offi cially here, you may be looking forward to vacations, barbecues, ballgames and other events of the season. But even while you’re engaged in these activities, you can’t forget about other aspects of your life — such as your plans to achieve your long-term fi nancial goals. However, your summer activities can actually provide you with some valuable lessons on managing your investment strategy.

Here are a few possibilities: Plan your trip. If you’re taking a long road trip this summer, you’ll need to choose your vehicle, map out your route, determine how far you want to go each day and be quite certain of your destination. And, essentially, the same is true for your investment strategy. You need to choose the right investment vehicles, familiarize yourself with your ultimate goals (such as a comfortable retirement) and chart your progress along the way. Try to avoid getting burned. If you’re going to spend a lot of time outdoors this summer, you may need to apply some sunscreen. But you don’t have to be exposed to the sun to get “burned” — it can happen in the investment world, too. However, you can help prevent this from happening. How? By building a diversifi ed portfolio. If most of your money is tied up in just one type of investment, and that asset class falls victim to a downturn, your portfolio could take big hit. But while some investments are moving down, other may be moving up, so it makes sense to spread your money among a range of vehicles appropriate for your risk tolerance, investment goals and time horizon. Of course, diversifi cation, by itself, cannot guarantee a profi t or protect against loss, but it can help reduce the effects of volatility on your portfolio. Keep yourself “hydrated.” When you’re outside on hot days, you can lose a lot of fl uids, so you need to drink plenty of liquids to remain hydrated. As an investor, you also need a reasonable amount of liquidity. In the severe market downturn of 2008 and early 2009, many investors found they had insuffi cient amounts of the type of liquid investments — cash and cash equivalents — that held up better than other, more aggressive vehicles. Furthermore, if you are relatively illiquid, you may have to dip into your longer-term investments to pay for short-term emergency needs. Try to always keep an adequate level of liquidity in your holdings.

Dress for the season. As you go about your summer activities, you won’t always wear the same clothes. On hot days, you might want to wear shorts, but on cool, rainy days, you might need heavier items or even a raincoat. And as you go through life, you may need to adjust your investment approach depending on your individual fi nancial “season.” For example, early in your career, you might be able to afford to invest more aggressively, as you’ll have more opportunities to recover from the inevitable short-term downturns. As you close in on retirement, though, you may need to take a more conservative approach so that you can lower your investment risk when you need to access your money.

So there you have them — some ideas for “summertime investing.” Use them wisely, and they may be of value to you long after summer is over.

Travel Insurance for Today’s TravelerNot sure if you need travel insurance?Encountering the unexpected is often a part of travel and they can range from the inconvenient to a truly serious emergency. Imperial Travel recommends Travelex Insurance Services to protect your travel investment and provide peace of mind.

Have you thought about what would happen to yourself or your trip investment if...- You or a family member become ill and you can no longer travel- You have a medical emergency in a foreign country- You miss a connection because of a fl ight delay- You arrive at your destination and your luggage is lost- Your wallet, credit cards and passport are stolen

Peace of Mind:Whether you lose your job, a hurricane blows through your destination, or your travel supplier goes bankrupt, the benefi ts of a comprehensive travel insurance plan help get you back on track and fi nd the peace of mind your trip deserves.

Protecting Your Travel Investment:You work hard for the money and time invested in planning your vacation. Unfortunately even the most careful preparation doesn’t avoid life’s surprises if you need to cancel or interrupt your trip. Purchasing a Travelex protection plan will help make sure you don’t walk away empty-handed.

Medical Expenses:Your personal medical healthcare policy may offer limited coverage or none at all, once you travel outside the United States. Also, the plan may lower benefi ts or have deductibles when using an out-of-network doctor. Travelex plans will reimburse you for medical expenses from any doctor around the world when seen for a covered medical emergency.

Emergency Transportation:If an emergency medical evacuation becomes necessary, Travelex will transport you to an adequate facility to receive treatment. Additional benefi ts include transportation of a visitor of your choice to stay with you or to transport any traveling children back home, should you become hospitalized.

Personal Belongings:A trip to the beach isn’t much fun without a bathing suit. Travelex plans will refund you for items lost, stolen or damaged, and reimburse you for necessary items you need to buy and continue having fun on your trip until your baggage is returned. Travel Assistance & Concierge Services:Travelex is available 24/7 for everything from help fi nding lost luggage to booking a tee time for golf, and of course, medical emergencies. This is a brief description of benefi ts. Certain terms, conditions, exclusions, and limitations apply as set out in the Certifi cate of Insurance.

For complete details, questions or to enroll in a Travelex plan, visit www.imperialtravelserv.com, or call Candi @ Imperial Travel, 518-462-1163, [email protected], or any Imperial agent associate.

"When I became a parent, and even more so as a single parent, I knew that I would need to rely on other adults to infl uence and role model for my kids.In todays society it's not always easy to fi nd these role models that not only teach, but also show, respect, confi dence, acceptance, trust, and compassion. When we walked in to Dewey’s Martial Arts Academy we hit the jackpot. Not only did the instructors have the characteristics that I was searching for, they provided even more for my kids. They have an environment that is unconditional and full of energy. This has allowed my kids to develop a level of confi dence and self-esteem that is exciting to watch.I couldn't ask for more.

Five Ways to Avoid Sports Injuries Playing sports is a lot of fun. Getting hurt is not. Take these fi ve steps to prevent injuries so you can stay in the game:

1.Wear protective gear, such as helmets, protective pads, and other gear.2.Warm up and cool down.3.Know the rules of the game.4.Watch out for others.5.Don’t play when you’re injured.Let’s fi nd out more about each of these.

Wear Protective Gear Protective gear is anything you wear that helps keep you from get-ting hurt. The gear you wear depends on the sport you play. Helmets are the most common protective gear. They protect your all-important head while you’re playing football, hockey, baseball, softball, biking, skateboarding, and inline skating, just to name a few!

Make sure you’re wearing the right helmet for your sport. For in-stance, don’t wear your baseball batting helmet when you’re playing football! Your helmet should fi t snugly but comfortably, and if it has a strap — like a bike helmet does — you need to fasten it. Otherwise, it will fall off when you need it most.

Other sports require eye protection, mouthguards, pads, wrist, elbow, and knee guards, and a protective cup (for boys only). And don’t forget your feet. Cleats are worn in football, baseball, softball, and soccer. These shoes have special rubber or plastic points on the soles to help your feet grip the ground when you run around.

Talk with your parents or your coach to know what gear you need. Then wear that gear whenever you’re practicing or playing

Warm UpIt’s not a good idea to just bolt on to the fi eld and start playing. You shouldn’t even start stretching until you’re a little warmed up. So take a light jog to get loosened up and ready to play.

Doing some stretching also can get you prepared to hit the fi eld. By warming up, you get yourself ready to play. Warming up your muscles and practicing a sport help keep you safe, too. Warm-ups that last 15 to 30 minutes and include slow, gradual stretching help lengthen your muscles and increase your blood fl ow and muscle temperature. That way, your muscles are ready to go and are much less likely to get hurt.

Know the Rules of the GameTraffi c lights at intersections help prevent crashes between the many cars and trucks that drive on the roads together. This works because drivers know the rules and follow them — at least most of the time. It’s the same way with sports.

When players know the rules of the game — what’s legal and what’s not — fewer injuries happen. You and the other players know what to expect from each other. For instance, you know that in soccer you can’t come from behind, crash into a player’s legs, and steal the ball. It’s legal — and safer — to go after the ball rather than the player.

With sports that use plays, it helps to understand the plays and what your role is in each one. Being where you’re supposed to be can help you stay out of harm’s way, too.


Watch Out for OthersSome rules don’t have anything to do with scoring points or penalties. Some rules are just about protecting other people and being courte-ous. For instance, in baseball or softball, the batter can’t fl ing the bat after hitting the ball and heading for fi rst base. He or she must drop it so that it doesn’t hit anyone. Likewise, a diver would make sure that the pool was clear before diving in. Otherwise, he or she might land on someone else.

One way you can watch out for others is to communicate on the fi eld. For instance, a baseball player in the outfi eld might yell “I got it” to avoid a collision with another outfi elder. Listening to your coach during a game also can help keep you safe. It’s also good to just be courte-ous, like telling someone his or her shoe is untied. Check your shoes, too!

Don’t Play When You’re InjuredThis is a really important one. If you love sports, it’s tempting to get right back in the game, even after an injury. But playing when you’re hurt — or before an injury has had a chance to fully heal — is a bad idea. It can lead to an even worse injury, one that might sideline you for a long time. Be honest with parents and coaches if you’ve been hurt. See a doctor for your injuries, when necessary, and follow his or her advice about how and when to return to practice and play.

Now you know what kids need to know about staying safe. Hopefully, if you follow rules 1, 2, 3, and 4, you won’t need number 5. Or at least not quite as often!

I am running the NYC marathon this fall as part of the Boomer Esiason Foundation (BEF), which supports fundraising for Cystic Fibrosis (CF) research.Our family is good friends with someone who has lived with this disease for close to the past 20 years. She is a wonderful young woman, and her family has been there and supported her over the years. I am proud to know them.

Great strides have been made to combat this disease, and its effects on those who live with it, but as we all know this takes money, lots of it. I hope to offer something towards that goal. I promise to do my best fo this race, and I ask for your support. I know it is never a good time to ask for money, but if you trust my judgment, then trust me that this is for a great purpose.

My donation page address is listed below. If you can, then do.Thank you sincerely,

Matt Landy
