Stay updated on recalls

In the world of food recalls and alerts, just when you think you’ve seen it all, something even more scary and dangerous comes along. We’ve had the “normal” stuff, of course. There was the cheese produced in a facility that had mice and rats.There was the cheese that was recalled for risk of listeria.We had undeclared wheat in chocolate cookies and boxes of cheese crackers that actually contained peanut butter crackers, a potential life-threatening problem for those who are allergic to peanuts.Then there was the undeclared soy and wheat in ice cream. An energy drink was found to contain alcohol because the alcoholic drink was mistakenly packaged in the energy drink cans. Just regular stuff, right?

But it was another one that gave me a chill: instant coffee was found to contain ground glass.

The coffee was sold in 48 states, with only Hawaii and Alaska being left out. It wasn’t just one manufacturing lot that was affected, but three. The company was notified by a customer and immediately issued the recall. I hate to think of the possible injuries that could be caused by drinking that coffee.

At the same time, this last week saw consumer products recalls for the charger to smartwatches because they can overheat and ignite, kids’ pajamas that don’t meet flammability standards, jewelry with excess levels of cadmium (which can cause health effects due to skin exposure), heated socks that can cause burns and blisters, a multitool with a blade that can cause cuts and a set of kitchen steps with a safety bar that can collapse.

Whew. It’s been busy in the recall department, and those are only from the consumer products section.

If you’d like to receive email alerts for all types of products (food, vehicles, medicine, consumer products, boats, environmental products, cosmetics), go online to www.recalls.gov and sign up. Other government websites with recalls include www.fda.gov and www.fsis.usda.gov.

HOW COLLEGE STUDENTS CAN CUT LIVING EXPENSES

Venture off campus. Towns that rely heavily on colleges or universities to support their economies typically offer great deals to students willing to venture off campus. Local businesses, including bars, restaurants and entertainment venues like mini golf facilities or bowling alleys, may offer student discounts to entice kids to leave campus. Students can take advantage of these offerings to save on food and entertainment, which tend to be among the more pricey cost-of-living expenses college students contend with.

“Appreciation can make a day, even change a life. Your willingness to put it all into words is all that is necessary. ”

- Home prices will keep going up

- Prices will level off or even dip

- Things will balance out — fewer bidding wars, more normal sales

- Homes will still sell above asking

- More houses will come on the market

- Mortgage rates will shape what happens most

Moths (written at my camp in the woods)

My screams, they come in the morning

My screams, they come at night

My screams don’t come from joyful times

ey only come from fright.

e mice will run through my cupboards

e spiders nest under my sink

e bees, they buzz ‘round my awnings

None of these pests make me blink!

But moths, they’re really quite creepy

ey’re furry and really shouldn’t fly

ey’re hiding behind every warm spot

And dart out and that’s when I cry!

When gypsy moths made a visit

And dropped as worms from the sky, ey turned into moths by the dozen

And I thought I was gonna die!

One flew out from my q-tips

One hid inside my tool

One warmed itself on my lightbulb

And they ended up in my toilet-enjoy the pool!

Metformin

Can Help All People, Not Just Diabetics, Lose Weight

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 75-year-old woman who isn’t prediabetic or diabetic.My BMI is 31.2.My doctor has prescribed a trial of metformin for weight loss as an alternative to starting Ozempic or one of the other weight-loss drugs. I have lost three pounds in a month, which is a start; exercise and healthier eating is also encouraged.

What are your thoughts on this new weight-loss tool and its possible longterm success? -- J.H.

Q. A.

ANSWER: Metformin, a treatment for diabetes that works mostly by preventing the liver from making sugar, isn’t new and has been used to help people lose weight for at least 20 years. While it was first shown to help people with prediabetes or diabetes, it is also effective at helping people with normal blood sugar lose weight. However, the effectiveness is modest, with most people losing around 2-3 kilograms (about 5 pounds), which is stable as long as people continue taking the medicine.

I certainly agree with the changes in lifestyle. In studies, people who adhere to a healthier diet and exercise are likely to lose more weight than people who take metformin without lifestyle changes.

I’ve had occasional patients who get motivated by the success of metformin, making it easier for them to comply with the diet and exercise changes. I’ve also had people say that the weight they lose with metformin makes it easier to exercise. Metformin is moderately successful in preventing diabetes, but it is not as effective for weight loss as approved weight-loss medicines such as semaglutide (Ozempic).

Some of my patients have read about metformin as an anti-aging drug based on animal data, and there are studies ongoing to see whether this is true in humans. I do not recommend its use for this purpose outside of a clinical trial.

A. Q.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m unable to find out from my health care provider’s clinic whether they offer a vaccine for the specific variant of COVID that is now said to be spreading. Do you know if there is a vaccine for this, and who is making it? -- J.A.

ANSWER: The Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee at the Food and Drug Administration recommends against a new vaccine formulation this fall, so it appears that we will be using the same vaccine as last year. Fortunately the current vaccine appears to be effective against the new NB.1.8.1 variant,which is now present in all areas that are monitored by the World Health Organization.

The FDA has approved a new, more-effective Moderna vaccine, but at the time of this writing, it has not yet been approved by the Centers for Disease Control. The new vaccine gives high protection with less antigens. However, the specific variants of COVID used for the vaccine will not be updated this year.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2025 King Features Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

HOW CONSUMERS CAN SHOW THEIR SUPPORT FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES

Continue to be loyal: A recent study from researchers at the Harvard Business School found that a customer’s eighth purchase was an average of 80 percent higher than his or her first purchase. That highlights just how valuable repeat customers are to small businesses. Consumers who have had positive experiences with small businesses in their communities in the past can continue to support those companies by looking to them first when they need new products or services. Doing so not only helps small businesses retain more customers, but it increases the likelihood that consumers will again have positive buying experiences.

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup sugar

3 eggs

1 cup self-raising flour

Zest of 1 lemon

Juice of 2 lemons

5 1/2 tablespoons sugar

LemonButtercream:

1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature

2 1/4 cups powdered sugar

Juice of 1/2 lemon

Lemon Zest

&sip dine

Preheat the oven to 350° F and get 12 cupcake liners ready. Beat the butter with the sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, self-raising flour and lemon zest and mix until combined. Spoon the mix evenly into the cupcake liners and bake for 18-22 minutes until they are baked through and springy to the touch.

Mix together the lemon juice and sugar for the drizzle in a bowl. Once the cupcakes are out of the oven, carefully spoon the drizzle over the cupcakes, then leave them to cool fully on a wire rack while you make the buttercream.

Beat the butter until smooth; this can take a couple of minutes. Add the powdered sugar in two batches, beating well after each addition, then add the lemon juice and beat again.

Pipe or spread the buttercream onto your cupcakes, then sprinkle each one with some sprinkles and lemon zest.

A skill that has always existed improves the aesthetics of our homes, shields us from every weather, and ensures we have a good night’s sleep even in the coldest weather. Sewing is that skill. National Sewing Month is celebrated to honor this artistic practice that fashions our bodies and adorns our homes all year. So, grab your needles and start sewing.

Ronald Reagan proclaimed National Sewing Month in 1982.

Sewing can assist you in clearing your mind of daily hassles, allowing you to appreciate the simple things in life.

Creating quilts, clothing, and other masterpieces will always bring you self-satisfaction. Sewing is a fun activity to do alone or with friends, whether you sew from scratch, alter clothing, or repurpose your wardrobe. The Singer sewing machine, the world's most popular sewing machine, was invented in 1851.

The French military leader Napoleon is said to have pioneered putting buttons on sleeves.

Pets in history: Heroic dogs and cats

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Thank you for discussing war dogs and their service with our armed forces. Can you highlight some non-military canine heroes, too? -- Jim F., San Diego

DEAR JIM: Absolutely! Dogs have been performing heroic feats for as long as they’ve been our companions. But only a few have made it into the history books. Here are a few that some readers may not have heard of:

Balto and Togo: In January 1925, a diphtheria outbreak threatened the population of Nome, Alaska. To deliver lifesaving serum, teams of sled dogs relayed 500 miles across ice and snow in treacherous weather. Togo led his dog team across the longest, most dangerous part of the relay. Balto, a young and inexperienced husky, sprinted through fierce winds to reach the town in record time. Today, their journey is commemorated each year with the Iditarod sled race.

Bindi is an 8 year old Chihuahua who likes sitting on anyone’s lap and getting attention.

Ethel is a 16 year old mix who likes going on walks and playing in the creek. They are both rescues, love treats and reside at the Middlesex Valley Airport.

Riley: A Golden Retriever search-and-rescue (SAR) dog who became the face of SAR dogs in the wake of 9/11. At one point, Riley was sent alone in a basket over a 60foot chasm to search the wreckage on the other side. He was one of many dogs who searched the World Trade Center rubble to recover those lost. Riley died in 2010, suffering various health problems, possibly from his time at Ground Zero.

Buddy: In 1928, this German Shepherd became the first Seeing Eye dog in the United States. Born in Switzerland, she (yes, Buddy was a she) was trained by Dorothy Harrison Eustis, who ran a kennel that trained military and police dogs. Eustis matched Buddy to Frank Morris, a sight-impaired man from the U.S. Morris championed the use of Seeing Eye dogs, demonstrating Buddy’s skill at leading him across busy Manhattan streets.

THE GENESEE VALLEY’S FIRST GAS STATIONS

Before big-name fuel chains dotted every intersection, many rural communities in the Genesee Valley had gas pumps right outside the local general store, or even attached to someone’s barn. In towns like York and Nunda, early motorists would buy gasoline by the gallon in glass cylinders.The pump handle was manual, and exact change was expected!

SUMMER ENGINE TIPS

Summer heat can take a toll on your car’s engine. In older vehicles especially, overheating is a common issue during long drives or stop-andgo traffic. Make sure your coolant levels are topped off, and take a look at your radiator hoses—they should feel firm, not soft or cracked. If your A/C feels weak, a quick cabin filter change might help air flow more freely and keep things cool inside and out.

Scan local advertisements: Church bulletins, newspaper classified ads and online bullet boards typically boast a number of items for sale, many of which are being sold at a fraction of the cost of new items. Before embarking on shopping trips, check these advertisements to see if there are any preowned items that meet your needs.

In addition, there are a number of social media groups that enable members to advertise their items for sale. Others are encouraged to inquire about the sales and make their own offers. Though it might take some effort, it is possible to get brand-name used merchandise for less.

GO GREEN WHEN SPENDING TIME OUTDOORS THIS SUMMER

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

Lawns and gardens can often benefit from the laying of mulch. Mulch serves various purposes in lawns and gardens, and many experienced lawn and garden enthusiasts lay mulch to ensure their properties make it through spring, summer and fall unscathed.

First-time homeowners with little or no landscaping experience may not understand the benefits of mulch, which can be used to strengthen soil and protect properties from the elements.

Ready, Set, Read!

Literacy is worth celebrating yearround—books and reading offers lifelong benefits for every age group!

Foster Literacy Skills by Reading to Babies

10 TIPS TO GET KIDS READING MORE

Ask your child to read a book to you. Play a board game together.

Take your child to get their own library card. Read newspaper comic strips or comic books. Ask kids to write a short story and read it out loud. Read and prepare a recipe together. Make bedtime stories a nightly routine.

Play word games like reading tongue twisters, doing crossword searches or unscrambling words.

Take a book with you wherever you go, so you can read together at any opportunity.

Keep a book on your child’s nightstand, so they are prompted to read if they wake up early.

10 BENEFITS OF READING FOR CHILDREN

• More extensive vocabulary

• Improved language skills

• Critical thinking skill development

• Increased creativity and imagination

• Empathy development

• Understanding of the surrounding world

• Improved concentration

• Parent-child bonding

• Cognitive development support

• Improved social skills and interaction

It’s never too early to begin reading to babies. In fact, reading to infants beginning at birth helps support their cognitive development and their bond with parents. It also increases the likelihood that parents will continue reading to children as they grow, improving language skills and concentration to prepare them for academic success.

Zero to Three, an organization focused on early childhood development, recommends these book-type guidelines for babies and toddlers:

Birth to 6 Months - chunky board books, soft fabric books and vinyl bath books

6 to 9 Months - board books with short, simple stories and colorful illustrations

9 to 18 Months - board books with simple stories, stories with rhymes and phrases that repeat, and stories with pictures of other babies and familiar objects like animals

18 to 24 Months - longer, slightly more complex stories; humorous stories; and stories featuring silly rhymes

24 to 26 Months - books with paper pages, nonfiction stories about things like animals or seasons, and books that discuss jobs

ANDDON’TFORGET…

studies show that good reading habits in older adults can help improve memory, sharpen decisionmaking skills, reduce stress and protect against Alzheimer’s and dementia.

HOW STUDENTS CAN HANDLE THE TRANSITION TO MIDDLE SCHOOL

Dispel any myths your youngster might have heard about middle school. Youngsters hear lots of things about middle schools, and much of what kids hear might be untrue. Ask kids what they have heard about the schools they will be moving on to, and then do your best to dispel any myths.

Dear Readers,

Lately, it feels like the world is moving faster than ever — with constant talk about technology, artificial intelligence, and big changes coming our way. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by it all.

We want to continue to curate a product that you feel good about reading, where you can learn about what’s happening with your neighbors and feel proud about living in our beautiful region. e Penny Saver has been many things to many people but the one constant for the publication has been a focus on “local.” To that end, we want to expand all that we share with you to make this the best and most useful publication. So what does this mean?

ank You!

“My Friend Linda” was a beautiful poem and I cried just reading it. Losing a dear friend is almost as heart wrenching as losing a family member. My sympathy to the author…I know the memories of your friend will always be in your heart.

Country Neighbors

Fun is Too Expensive

I understand prices are high for products and travel and the companies who run county fair concessions and rides need to make money. $5 is not bad to get in but try to eat. Drink. Go on a ride or play a game and you are in for a rude awakening. Fun should not put you in debt or break the bank. Most of the stands and rides had only a couple of people and no lines, they might find making a couple of dollars less would double or triple their sales. example - Two people to ride the Ferris Wheel: $20.00 - we walked away.

Stop Feeding e Varmints

I recently passed by a neighbor’s roadside sign that I thought read ‘fresh veggies.’ I turned around for some zucchini and to see what else they had. Turns out I misread the sign and it actually said, ‘free veggies!’ Thank you for the zucchini and green beans, it made my day and I’ll be enjoying some fresh zucchini bread as soon as it comes out of the oven! Thanks, neighbor!

A Special Young Man

I wish to thank the young man who found my wallet at Marketplace parking area on Aug 4. His father drove him to my house to return it before I even missed the loss (and suffered the search anxiety). What a blessing. You’ve brightened my life, Thank You.

For God’s sake please stop feeding the varmints in the neighborhood!! I know you think you’re being helpful, but leaving food of any sort in your yard is only inviting rodents and such into the neighborhood. I work nights and often sit on my porch late at night and people would be disgusted what creeps around after they are tucked into bed thinking they did a good deed by feeding skunks, rats, woodchucks, etc. And PLEASE turn your spotlight garage lights off at night! It shines down at least 4-5 houses. My retinas are burnt!! Thank you in advance.

DAY TRIPS SENIORS CAN ENJOY

Wine tasting: A recent study from Wine & Vines magazine said there are 8,391 wineries in North America, and that number is on the rise. One is likely to find a winery to visit and sample the wares close to home. Make a day of it by bringing a picnic lunch.

GET A HANDLE ON WORK-RELATED STRESS

Take more time off. According to the “State of American Vacation 2016” report from Project: Time Off, American workers failed to use 658 million vacation days in 2015. Vacation is not just a time to get away, but a valuable, effective way for workers to recharge. The APA notes that avoiding the negative effects of chronic stress and burnout requires workers to take time away to replenish and return to their pre-stress level of functioning. Taking time off to disconnect from work and avoid thinking about work can be just what workers need to overcome their work-related stress. And plenty of workers have the time to take off; they just need to take it.

NAPLES CENTRAL SCHOOL

Starting rates listed above. Experience and qualifications taken into consideration. Health insurance available, sick and personal leave available. Interested applicants should apply through the Naples Central School District Job Opportunities page: www.naplescsd.org.
