SENIOR NEWS LINE

By Matilda Charles

Save money at the Habitat ReStore

It’s that time of year again. Summer is fading and it’s time to start thinking about what cold weather might bring. As well as revisiting the parts of the to-do list that didn’t get completed during the summer.

In my house that incomplete portion of my list includes painting the stairs before management notices the peeling and issues a fine and having a new window installed in the living room.

The reasons for not having done those things yet are the price of a can of paint ($42 for a gallon when I need less than a quart) and over $500 for the window, installation not included.

Do you see a pattern here?

And yes, it’s the price of nearly everything nowadays that keeps so many of us from taking care of things like we should.

However, I’ve just learned of a way to get at least a few things on my list: The Habitat for Humanity ReStore. They have 900 locations across the country, and one of those just happens to be near me.

Started in 1976, Habitat for Humanity is the group that will build homes around the world that are then sold for affordable amounts to low and moderate income families, improve and repair houses for seniors so they can stay in their homes, provide disaster response, and much more.

TheirHabitatReStoresareloadedwithgoodqualityusedmerchandise that they take in with donations. It not only keeps household items out of the landfills, but it allows people to buy those items at very reduced prices. They carry used furniture, building materials, appliances, housewares and so much more, some of it donated by corporations.

To find locations near you, go online to www.habitat.org, click “Shop” and then click “Habitat ReStores.” Put in your ZIP code.

Handy travel tips from a well-traveled pet owner

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: As a seasoned traveler with hunting dogs, as well as puppies and family pets, going cross-state and cross-country, I find that you left out a few crucial items in your travel list important for dog safety/ health when traveling.

First, an IIHS/NHTSA approved crate(s) for the dog(s) or, at minimum, safety belt harness(es) that will restrain the dog(s) in the event of a crash. I have personally seen where dogs have gotten loose from an accident scene, and run off in fear and gotten lost because they were not restrained! Small dogs sitting on laps are not “restrained.”

Second, a basic animal first aid kit in case of emergency due to a cut, bite, ingestion of something, etc., before one can get to emergency vet care on a trip.

Third, water. It’s always best to bring at least a couple quarts of water from home to have handy for rest areas or pull-offs with no services like running water.

Thank you for considering my input on this topic. -- Betsy M., via email

DEAR BETSY: Absolutely essential items! Thank you for adding to the list. A separate first aid kit for pets, included in their bag of supplies so that it’s easy to find, is important. And using an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) or National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) approved crate has been shown to reduce or prevent pet injuries in the event of a crash. For dogs in the back seat, rather than a crate, a pet safety belt and harness is a much safer option than a collar and leash, or worse, just letting your pet sit unbelted. Make these investments for your pet before a trip -- and for everyday travel.

KEEPING IT LOCAL, TOGETHER.

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 give you a break from all the noise when you read the Penny Saver. 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?

e bottom line is we want to create and share more local content. at might include stories about high school athletes, highlights of local trails and other natural gems to visit, homesteading tips, reviews of new books coming out from local authors, shared local poetry, new playground reviews, and even local generational recipe sharing! ese are just a taste of what we want to build. However, our focus will not be on hard news. Politics and police blotters have never been our specialty, and we want to leave that type of reporting to the folks in the news that do that best.

ere is a reality to these ambitions. Costs continue to rise, especially for postage and revenue is unpredictable due to an ever-changing advertising landscape. We’ve worked hard since the pandemic to lower our costs and provide the same great service to you, but adding content to better serve readers requires more resources.

Here’s what we’re asking. If every home that receives the Penny Saver gave $5 we would be able to fund all of this local content and more. Our goal is to keep the Penny Saver a free publication and available to as many readers in the community as possible. What we are seeking is an investment from you in the product you love to make it even better.

It’s said in our industry that the health of a local publication is a direct reflection of the community it serves. Our commitment to local goes beyond our content. Our paper is printed right in Avon, NY by employees, managers, and owners that live here in Western New York. We hope to remain strong for many years to come and even foster the next generation of readers who share the love of “local”.

We’ve included a form below and we so appreciate your attention and support of the Penny Saver’s future.

Thank you for your consideration and your readership. The Genesee Valley Penny Saver & Featured Media Management Team

BRAIN-HEALTHY HABITS TO EMBRACE

Cognitive decline is a condition that is often associated with aging, but even middle-aged people can experience memory loss or cognition issues.

The Alzheimer’s Association says that more than five million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. By 2050, that number could rise to as high as 16 million people. More than 747,000 Canadians are living with Alzheimer’s or another dementia, says the Canadian Alzheimer’s Association.

Although there is no definitive way to prevent dementia, living a long, vibrant life may be possible by encouraging some healthy habits for the brain. It is never too late or too early to begin health and lifestyle changes.

Exercise: Becoming more active can improve brain volume, reduce risk for dementia and improve thinking and memory skills. The journal Neurology found that older people who vigorously exercise performed better on cognitive tests than others of the same age, placing them at the equivalent of 10 years younger. Increased blood flow that occurs with physical activity may help generate new neurons in the hippocampus, an area of the brain involved with learning and memory.

The Harvard Medical School says aerobic exercise may help improve brain tissue by improving blood flow and reducing the chances of injury to the brain from cholesterol buildup in blood vessels.

Quit smoking: The Alzheimer’s Association indicates that evidence shows smoking increases the risk of cognitive decline. Smoking can impair blood flow to the brain and cause small strokes that may damage blood vessels.

Eat healthy foods: Foods that are good for the heart and blood vessels also are good for the brain. These include fresh fruits and vegetables,

whole grains, fish-based proteins, unsaturated fats, and foods containing omega-3 fatty acids. Neurologists state that, while research on diet and cognitive function is limited, diets, such as Mediterranean and Mediterranean-DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension), may contribute to a lower risk of cognitive issues.

Consume caffeine: Caffeine may help boost memory performance and brain health. A Journal of Nutrition study found people ages 70 and older who consumed more caffeine scored better on tests of mental function than those who consumed less caffeine. Caffeine may help improve attention span, cognitive function and feelings of well-being. Information from Psychology Today also indicates caffeine may help in the storage of dopamine, which can reduce feelings of depression and anxiety. In addition, compounds in cocoa and coffee beans may improve vascular health and help repair cellular damage due to high antioxidant levels.

Work the brain: Engaging in mentally stimulating activities can create new brain connections and more backup circuits, states Dr. Joel Salinas, a neurologist at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. Working the brain through puzzles, reading and participating in social situations can stimulate the release of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a molecule essential for repairing brain cells and creating connections between them.

A good way to combine these lifestyle factors is to take an exercise class with friends, mixing the social, stimulation and exercise recommendations together.

Cognitive decline can come with aging, but through healthy habits, people can reduce their risk of memory loss and dementia.

Understand How Systemic Lupus Affects a Person’s Body &body mind

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Q. A.

DEAR DR. ROACH: What is lupus, and what does it do to your body? I just had a friend who was diagnosed with it after many months of tests. -- T.S.B.

ANSWER: The term “lupus” generally means systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE), which is a systemic disorder as its name suggests. So, by definition, it affects multiple systems of the body.

One of the most commonly affected systems is the skin, and one particular localized disease of the skin -- discoid lupus -- is a condition that helps make the diagnosis of SLE. I sometimes hear people with discoid lupus say that they have “lupus,” but it is not the systemic disease unless other criteria are met. Other skin conditions seen with SLE include the classic “butterfly” rash on the face, marked sun sensitivity, mouth ulcers, and hair loss.

People with SLE commonly have systemic or “constitutional” symptoms such as fatigue, fever and generalized aching. Weight loss is common with early SLE, but some people gain weight due to salt and water retention from the kidney manifestations of SLE or from treatment.

Joint problems (both pain and swelling) are present in over 90% of people with SLE. It always affects more than one joint. Kidney problems with protein in the urine are common and a diagnostic criterion. Neurological disorders are infrequent but may include seizures, peripheral neuropathy, and acute confusion or psychosis.

The lining of the heart and lungs are often affected, which can be heard by an examiner. An electrocardiogram shows typical changes. All of the blood cells -- red, white and “blue” (platelets) -- can be decreased.

Finally, there are blood proteins that are elevated in people with SLE.The ANA level is almost always high, but this is not a specific finding. I have seen more patients misdiagnosed with lupus because of a high ANA level and no other criteria for SLE than I have ever seen correctly diagnosed.

The anti-Smith antibody is much more specific but not commonly seen, while the anti-double-stranded DNA test is more common and specific than an ANA test. Blood tests alone do not diagnose SLE.

There are different scoring systems to make the diagnosis of definite and probable SLE using these criteria, but in clinical practice, the diagnosis is made using the judgment of an experienced clinician. In my practice, I refer all of my patients with suspected SLE to a rheumatologist.

The diagnosis of SLE isn’t completely straightforward and requires expertise, while the management of SLE requires a clinician who is both experienced and currently up-to-date in the medical treatment.This, again, usually means a rheumatologist.

Seventy years ago, prior to the development of steroids, the diagnosis of SLE used to be extremely dangerous, with half of people who were newly diagnosed dying within five years. Since steroids have many side effects and aren’t 100% effective, many new drugs have been developed, and most people who are diagnosed with SLE now can be well-managed.

However, it is still a serious, life-changing diagnosis that increases the risk of heart disease and cancer in addition to all the organ issues mentioned above. A general doctor working with the rheumatologist can recommend treatments to reduce your heart risk, as well as appropriate cancer screening tests.

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

ANSWERS

CARE FOR TOOLS PROPERLY

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

* On Aug. 25, 1950, in anticipation of a strike by railroad workers, President Harry Truman issues an executive order putting America’s railroads under the control of the U.S. Army, saying it was necessary for the protection of American citizens as well as “essential to the national defense and security of the Nation.” He used the same justification for seizing control of steel plants.

* On Aug. 26, 1974, Charles Lindbergh, the first man to accomplish a solo nonstop flight across the Atlantic Ocean, dies in Hawaii at age 72. To reduce weight during his famous 1927 flight, everything not essential was left out: radio, gas gauge, night-flying lights, navigation equipment and parachute.

HOW COMMUNITIES BENEFIT WHEN CONSUMERS SHOP LOCAL

More money kept in the community. Shopping locally means that more money will stay in the community. According to recent research from Civic Economics, local eateries return nearly 79 percent of revenue to the community,compared to just over 30 percent for chain restaurants. Overall, for every $100 spent at a local business, around $73 remains in the community, verus roughly $43 when shopping at a non-locally owned business.

Whispers by Patricia Mclain

Went outside tonight to sit

To see the beauty and enjoy it

Heard the whispers of the trees

As they caught the gentle breeze

Grass is so velvet green and cool to touch

I love God’s creations so very much

Took a little walk...the flowers to see

Such wonderful colors...was pleasant to breathe

Heard the song of a bird

So ly letting its goodnight to be heard

Li ed my eyes to the blue dark sky

Saw beautiful diamonds blinking their eyes

Remembered the days of childhood

Lie on the green grass we would

Looked at all stars above

Made us appreciate the god of love

When looking for a new hobby, adults may find that activities that suit their personalities tend to be the most rewarding.

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 9-by-13-inch pan with parchment paper.

In a stand mixer, or with a hand mixer, cream sugar and butter on low. Add the eggs one at a time. Beat until just combined. Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Spread a little over half the cake batter into the pan. Evenly spread the pie filling over the top, and spoon the rest of the cake batter over the pie filling. It’s fine if the cherries show through.

Bake 35 minutes or until the top has turned slightly golden. Do not overbake. Allow to cool and slice into squares. Enjoy!

HOW TO ROAD TRIP IN AN ELECTRIC CAR

Drive in moderate weather.The software experts at Geotab note that cold weather affects EV range. Though battery thermal management systems have been designed to keep batteries within an optimal temperature range to minimize loss in battery performance, battery range is adversely affected when driving in extreme cold. Geotab notes that 70 F is the trip efficiency sweet spot.

The Rise and Fall of Spirit

BY CHELSIE WELLS

Few stories in RIT’s history are as surprising or as short-lived as that of Spirit, the live Bengal tiger who briefly served as the university’s mascot in the 1960s. It was a bold and bittersweet chapter in RIT’s history, one that began with a handful of ambitious students and ended quietly in a university archive.

In the fall of 1963, a group of students calling themselves the Tiger Committee decided that if RIT was going to have a tiger as its mascot, it ought to have the real thing. e tiger nickname had only recently caught on, as it was adopted a er the undefeated 1955-56 men’s basketball season, and students wanted a more visible, fierce symbol of school spirit.

To fund the plan, students sold “tiger stocks” for $1 each, raising the $1,000 needed to acquire a cub. e Seneca Park Zoo agreed to house and care for the animal, and on October 30, 1963, an eight-week-old male Bengal tiger cub arrived in Rochester, flown in by American Airlines in exchange for publicity.

A campus-wide contest gave him his name: Spirit, short for “Student Pride in RIT.”

Spirit quickly became a sensation. ough he was housed at the zoo, he was transported to RIT events and community appearances by his student handlers, most of whom were members of Alpha Phi Omega, a national service fraternity. Among them was David Page (‘66), a photo science major who formed a close bond with the cub and was one of the first students

to wear a tiger costume at events. In photos from the time, Page is seen alongside RIT President Mark Ellingson, proudly standing next to the real tiger that symbolized their school.

But Spirit’s time on campus didn’t last long. By early 1964, just four months a er his arrival, he had grown too large and unpredictable to appear at events. Behind the scenes, his handlers were already struggling with insurance issues, safety concerns, and transportation logistics. en came signs of illness: Spirit developed a limp, and worried visitors began asking what was wrong with his foot.

According to correspondence preserved in RIT’s Wallace Library and detailed in ReporterMagazine’s 2016 article, “ e Life and Legacy of Spirit the Tiger,” the zoo initially suspected a calcium deficiency, but X-rays eventually revealed a severe congenital pelvic deformity, and there was no cure. On September 28, 1964, less than a year a er his arrival, Spirit was euthanized.

ough the tiger was gone, the students who brought him to RIT remained determined to keep his memory alive. Letters from that time show their effortstopreservehispeltfordisplay,thoughitwould take years and several moves, including a stay at the George Eastman Museum, before it ended up back at RIT. Today, Spirit’s preserved hide rests in a box on the quiet third floor of Wallace Library.

Decades later, in 2005, members of the original Tiger Committee returned to RIT to record their story. David Page and others recounted the triumphs and complications of bringing a tiger to campus, and their interviews now live on in e Story of Spirit the Bengal Tiger, a digital archive curated by the university.

What happened with Spirit would never happen today. As Reporter Magazine noted, modern zoo policy, especially at accredited institutions like the Seneca Park Zoo, prohibits the use of endangered species as entertainment. Today’s focus is on conservation and animal welfare, not campus spectacle.

Still, Spirit’s brief life had a lasting impact. In 1989, RIT introduced a costumed mascot named Ritchie theTiger,continuingthetraditioninasafer,symbolic form. And for students like David Page, who passed away in 2011, Spirit remained one of the most meaningful experiences of their time at RIT.

As Page once wrote, “ e spirit of the tiger has done much in the past to enrich the tradition of RIT... and should never be allowed to fade.”

HOBBIES FOR DIFFERENT PERSONALITY TYPES

Men and women who have experienced great success in the world of business can pursue a host of low-stress opportunities with a goal of sharing their experiences with the next generation of business leaders. Teaching a course at a local college or university is one such avenue, and executives can even offer to work with high school students interested in pursuing careers in business. Teaching and mentoring might be less traditional hobbies than crocheting or woodworking, but they still provide a way for adults to pursue their passions away from the constraints of the office.

Goats Everywhere

What are the zoning laws in a small town when it comes to goats and how they are treated? Plus, [local] structures that are not used for goats? I drive this road to the [local food store] and hope not to hit a goat. Will have to use different roads. Just be kind to goats and humans.

We would like to thank everyone who helped my wife and I when we had an accident on Route 31A on July 17, 2025. Everyone was so kind and helpful. Thank you to the lady who took our dog back to our house. Thank you all for your kind help and for staying with us until medical help came. Thanks again to everyone! It was so nice to have people like all of you.

Thank you, The Kimmel family

Small ings Make All e Difference

Recently, our family was celebrating our grandson’s birthday at the Yates Town Park. As we were ready to serve the cake we realized the forks were missing. I went to the pavilion next to us and asked if they had extra forks we could have. Several of the people in their group were very happy to share some forks with us. I thanked them for their kindness and generosity but wanted to give them another “Thank you!” for helping us out. Sometimes it’s the small things that make all the difference!

Li erbug

To the woman and her passenger that got [food from local restaurant] to go and sat in their car and ate their food and then decided to throw ALL their garbage out of their window into the parking lot. What possesses a person to do such a thing? You have no respect for anyone or anything. I did get your license plate number and make and color of your car so if you think this is a good idea again, the police will get called. Do yourself a favor and dump your trash on your own property.

WORKING PARENTS CAN CREATE BETTER WORK-LIFE BALANCE

Look for ways to be more efficient. Interactions with coworkers can make work more enjoyable, but working parents should not spend too much time shooting the breeze with their fellow employees. Doing so wastes time and only contributes to work-related stress. Commuters who don’t drive themselves to work can be more efficient by using their commutes to read emails, arrange meetings or catch up on projects. Doing so allows for more time to get work done while in the office, which can make it easier to go home on time.

When leaving a job, it is important that professionals exhibit a certain measure of grace and etiquette. Leaving a job with dignity and mutual respect can benefit professionals in the short- and long-term.

When leaving a job, professionals should always be courteous and considerate toward their current employers.

RELOCATING FOR A NEW JOB

Emphasize organization. Much of the stress associated with relocating can be traced to the logistics of uprooting oneself and one’s family. Men and women who are unaccustomed to making lists may want to start, as doing so can help keep track of all the tasks that need to be completed before hitting the road. Various unique tasks, from canceling utilities to changing insurance policies, must be completed before moving, and it’s easy to lose track of what’s been done and what hasn’t. Maintaining a to-do list and checking off tasks as they’re completed can simplify the relocation process.

WAYS ESTABLISHED PROFESSIONALS CAN IMPROVE THEIR RÉSUMÉS

It’s important to optimize a résumé for digital scanning, which has become a major component of the employment sector. This includes using the correct keywords and phrasing so that your résumé will get “flagged.” Take your cue from the job advertisements themselves and mimic the verbiage used. Replace the lingo accordingly, tailoring it to each job you apply for. Also, consult the “about us” area of a prospective employer’s website. This area may offer clues about buzz words for the industry.
